you "always" read the changelog?
-> known issue
workaround:
fastboot boot TWRP_earlier_working.img
do what you want to do
wait for fixed kernel-TWRP
EDIT:
I had the same touch issue in TWRP after installing Androplus' kernel v43.
So I installed v42. This of course bootloops on Nougat BUT: TWRP works
Then I fired up TWRP, flashed v43 and immediately (same TWRP-session) after that SuperSU
-> Nougat rooted
For a short version see post #6 in this thread.

Perhaps you could clarify for me...
You install the Andro kernel in TWRP? I had always understood we were to extract boot.img and flash that in fastboot?
So understanding the steps post 376 install.
Install andro ver42 kernel
Install current TWRP and boot to TWRP
Flash ver43 in TWRP?
Flash supersu in TWRP
reboot
It doesn't seem correct to me so forgive me for asking.
Edit: Doesn't seem to matter what ver I go back to, 42, 40, etc touch on TWRP after doesn't seem to work...

Latest Cyanogenmod doesn't work.

Hi.
So the latest Cyanogenmod (honestly every update out of the CM update that came out on 9th Oct) builds do not work for my device. Whenever I try to boot up the device, the device just gets stuck on the bootup screen, that is the screen where you see the OnePlus logo and there's text in the lower part that says "Powered by Android", except that there is no "powered by Android" text seen.
What should I do in order to get things working?
Sorry to post this in the general thread, I am not yet high enough that I can post in the Android Development Thread.
The latest 2 builds are only compatible with the new Marshmallow Bootloader, AFAIK.
In order to get them working, I would recommend you to flash the full OOS 3.1.3 zip file.
There is the alternative to flash a zip file to get the latest booloader and radio firmware. I haven't tested it, that's why I'm not telling you to do so.

I currently am running the CM 13.0 2016-10-09 build which works like it should. So should I switch to OOS 3.1.3 and then flash the new CM build?

Yes. Just like that. But OOS 3.X.X has new Bootloader. So new TWRP should be flashed.
New TWRP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/development/unofficial-twrp-3-0-2-0-recovery-onyx-t3471584
And flash it as usual.

Wait dude! If you're on OOS 2.X.X based ROM and TWRP, then you should flash official OxygenOS Recovery and then flash the Marshmallow ROM. And now you can flash TWRP root or flash CM13 or xposed and whatever...

Yup. You need to first flash the OOS recovery and then you need to flash the OOS 3.1.3 and then again the TWRP and then you need to flash whichever ROM you want to... Been there, done that. Real pain...

Hi all,
I’m having the exact same problem. I’ve searched several forums, and have seen different solutions, but I’m unsure what solution to follow. The steps in this thread seem the most logical to me. But just to be clear, are this the steps I have to follow, in the correct order? I don’t want to make any mistakes. I’m currently on OOS 2.2.2 with TWRP 3.0.2.0.
(make backup, I’m wiping the whole thing)
Copy OPX_recovery and OOS 3.1.3 to phone
Flashboot flash OPX_recovery.img (Lollipop version, not MM)
Reboot (to bootloader?)
Flashboot flash OOS 3.1.3 (from pc or from bootloader?)
Wipe Dalvik/cache
Reboot (to bootloader?)
Flash twrp-3.0.2-0-onyx-20161020-085152.img as found in post from sundhar88
Flash latest CM13
Wipe Dalvik/cache
Reboot in normal mode
Should I download and keep the CM13 recovery version too?
Your reply would be massively appreciated!

After flashing the new TWRP for new BL you should reboot to recovery from reboot tab in TWRP.
Then wipe System ,Data and Cache and then flash CM13

Hi there.
I tried the way these folks suggested, by updating the BL using the zip file and flashing the updated TWRP recovery, and it worked!
What I did was, first of all, I took the backup using Titanium Backup and took a nandroid backup. Then I already had downloaded the files required, that is the BL zip file, the TWRP recovery, and the latest CM 13.0 build. Then I went to recovery > install and then located the BL and flashed it. Then I tried to flash the TWRP recovery but it didn't. Gave an error saying, "Unsuccessful" or something on those lines.
So I took that TWRP img file and copied it on my laptop. Then I went into the bootloader, which at first I thought was a bad idea since I just flashed the BL zip, then I flashed the new TWRP img file and went to recovery mode. And it had worked. So I flashed the CM 13.0 build too and then booted up the device, and it worked!
I guess that should help

PA I believe is on the old bootloader still. So you would have to downgrade your bootloader by flashing LL stock recovery and 2.x.x OOS firmware. Not worth the hassle if you ask me.

Right but if your downgrading your bootloader to flash PA you need to use old bootloader TWRP 3.0.2. So that being said easiest way is flash 2.2.3 with blusprk 3.0.2-2 TWRP then immediately after flash TWRP 3.0.2 image. Now re boot back into recovery and flash PA. I prefer flashing 2.2.3 with stock LL recovery less chance of issues. Then just fastboot flash old TWRP 3.0.2 and continue with PA.

global beta 7.2.9

As the title says global beta 7.2.9 is out. Anyone installed it?
What about twrp and root compatibility?
http://en.miui.com/download-299.html here is the link
Just installed it without issue with twrp 3.0.3. no issue so far, reinstalled twrp and flash super su 2.79 without problem too

Can you confirm the process please? Is it just:
1. Download the recovery version of the update to the phone.
2. Boot to recovery (TWRP).
3. Install the update zip file.
4. Re install TWRP.
5. Reinstall the SuperSU zip.
6. Reboot to system.
Do we need additional reboots between the steps? Do we need to unroot before installing the update? Does it matter if the existing global beta ROM is several versions old?
Sorry for asking so many questions. I have not updated the ROM since unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP/SuperSU several months ago and am worried about bricking my phone.
That's the steps i did , i first booted the rom just to be sure everything was OK before reinstalling twrp and supersu. I only had a message telling me the update wasn't successful but after installing twrp and wiping cache everything was fine. As long you install the full rom you should be fine with the update (do a clean flash to be sure). What version of Android is actually running on your phone ?
Update twrp to 3.0.3 as the previous version won't work with nougat

That's good to know. Just to confirm, the update could be applied "dirty" without a need to reinstall all apps and data afterwards?
I am still on global beta 6.11.3 (which is MM) and twrp 3.0.2.0. Is 7.2.9 based on nougat which would require the update of twrp? I had thought that the nougat beta was on a separate thread open to a closed group only...
I did a clean flash when updated to nougat (was on 6.11.10) but did a dirty flash from 7.1.19 to 7.2.9. Update to twrp 3.0.3 is highly recommended as it's updated with nougat libs and 3.0.2 won't "stick" with nougat miui.
Only the fiirst nougat build was on a closed beta but now it's open beta and can be updated via updater app.
Édit: clean flash is not mandatory i guess, i did it only to be sure to have a clean install without rogue app or incompatibility issue between mm and nougat. I use supersu 2.79 and have no issue
Twrp 3.0.3..?? Not available for Mi5 on twrp site.. Any mirror plz..

Finally did it, but not without scare - my Mi5 was stuck at the boot logo with "Bootloader unlock" message screen after flashing the recovery version of 7.2.9 update and reflashing TWRP 3.0.3.0. Luckily managed to get the phone into fastboot mode to flash the fastboot version of 7.2.9 and get the phone back on again. Finally reinstalled TWRP and boot into TWRP before rebooting to system successfully.
The key step I had forgotten was the booting into TWRP after its installation over the 7.2.9 stock recovery, which had led to the bootloop.
So I now have updated to 7.2.9. I do notice that the boot process takes quite a bit longer than 6.11.3 (design of nougat?), but once up, the phone feels as responsive as before.

Oreo stock root

It seems it is impossible to get root with magisk on latest Oreo stock. Maybe someone found solution?
I asked and I answer =)
To get the root it is required to
- install latest TWRP (current version twrp-3.2.1-0)
- reboot to TWRP
- install 16.2 or higher magisk, link for 16.2
- install f2fs bug workaround
- reboot system
- install magisk Manager
- enjoy your root =)

And keep in mind that it is possible to easily restore working state with magisk uninstaller.
Do you have any errors during magisk or workaround installation in twrp console?

There is magisk uninstaller provided in official thread.
To remove twrp you just need to flush original recovery via fastboot
Hello guys, can I have some advice on whether I should install this latest Oreo update on my moto z, how is the battery doing on this update? And overall experience?
@dolar4ik
i reflash the stock oreo ROM,then flash TWRP,flash magisk,flash f2fs bug workaround, stuck at bootloader logo,how can i do it??
Flash the Magisk uninstaller, reboot to recovery (you have this option in TWRP) and flash again only the Magisk 16.3 (without the f2fs bug workaround). This worked for me two days ago.
Today I updated to the latest Magisk 16.4 without any problems.

This is right.
I re-flashed my phone using the OPL27.76-51 firmware. Now, no way to install Magisk (old, new, any version).
The solution, I restored a TWRP backup made at the first bootloader unlock (when the ROM was updated only using OTAs, not flashed). Immediately I was able to install Magisk 16.4 - without any F2FS workaround.
HERE is my TWRP backup containing the partitions: Boot, Data & System. Hope it helps!

Uninstall magisk with it's own uninstaller.
I installed Magisk on the full Oreo release and everything is working.
I did make a "less bloat, less bs" zip version but I doubt it would make a change.
If you guys want, I can upload it when I get home.

Could you provide your twrp ZIP Version? That would be great.

This is right.
I re-flashed my phone using the OPL27.76-51 firmware. Now, no way to install Magisk (old, new, any version).
The solution, I restored a TWRP backup made at the first bootloader unlock (when the ROM was updated only using OTAs, not flashed). Immediately I was able to install Magisk 16.4 - without any F2FS workaround.
HERE is my TWRP backup containing the partitions: Boot, Data & System. Hope it helps!

Just got myself a hand me down Moto z.
My friend who gave it to me hasn't touch the phone for a year.
So i started with 6.0 and after multiple updates, now i am on Oreo.
Since i have done ota from Marshmallow, would this method work?
Bootloader was never unlocked.
thanks for any input

Root and recovery for the latest nougat?!

Hello everybody, i'm new in this forum! I'm really disappointed because i can't root my tablet after many procedures, downgrades, updates, flashing!
Actually, there isn't a kernel and a recovery for the latest nougat version, and with the latest twrp the touch doesn't work. Even if i have unlocked bootloader i can't do nothing... I really appreciate if everyone has a solution for this!
I've tried root kernel but with the latest kernel the os doesn't boot, it stops with the boot animation.
I've tried downgrading with lollipop and marshmallow too, installed respectively twrp 2.8.0 and twrp 3.0 and then flashed a prerooted nougat zip created with prf creator, but after flashing it stucks with sony logo.
Can't help with TWRP but you can patch up boot.img of newest kernel (32.4.A.1.54, right ?) https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...ot-automatic-repack-stock-kernel-dm-t3301605

Yes, i've tried this method. I can patch the boot.img of the newest kernel, but when i flash it to the tablet and then i boot in android, the touch doesn't work. it boots up, but i can't go over the lockscreen cause of the touch issue.
