That was the old days when back covers was removable. I bet it is the first time you bought a non-removable battery phone?
Worry not, recovery would not be affected by bootloop since its a ROM problem.
And you know how to format through recovery right? Yea, that should answer your anxiousness.

Hold Power & vol + to enter recovery, Power & vol - to enter fastboot.
You can enter them even in bootloop, dont worry. (the phone will restart)

I think your only option is to restore it via RIFF JTAG... I don't know another way...

@ OP, did you charge it?

yes, from last 2 hrs its on charging.
I donno what is RIFF JTAG and Qualcomm diagnostic mode
googling it....
If you haven't done it yet, pull out the battery, put it back in and try to get into bootloader or recovery. (the pulling out the battery part is important)
by the way, what exactly is happening when you try to boot? please describe step by step what is happening. And what do you mean by boot "into hboot"?
And how did you try to go back to stock? Did you even get into the stock rom. Didn't you just forgot to flash the boot.img when going back to stock?

to flash a rom I
1. Switched off my phone,
2. hold power + vol down (to boot into bootloader recovery), just blank screen no boot.
3. hold power button + vol up, again just blank screen no boot.
4. when us connected led lights up, and PC detects as "unknown device found".
not booting at all.

but did you remove the battery and put it back in or not? If so and it still does not want to go into bootloader, it really is bricked.. Bring it to a service center for repair..

Bootloop, can't find way out.

I have a Sprint Galaxy Note 3 that is stuck in a bootloop.
Whenever a battery is in, the phone starts up and reboots a couple seconds later, no matter what boot mode it is in. I can't get in to download mode or recovery because of this. Tried a different battery and that didn't solve the problem.

It restarts a couple seconds after booting no matter what mode I put it in, rather that be download, recovery, or normal boot. Does it as soon as the battery is inserted. Could the physical power button have some sort of problem?
if you have an external sd card,remove it. then try; they're notorious for causing weird issues.
I've also read in the past where people take out the battery for a day or so and it cures strange ailments as well.
Other than that, it sounds like a hardware malfunction. Download mode for sure should be stable as that can't be replaced b flashing or odin; sans perhaps loading the wrong device's OS.

What to do in case of bootloop

Hi. So I have a noobish question
This may sound very stupid, but this is actually the first time I've owned a phone with non-removable battery, so I just wanted to know what would I do if I ever got stuck in a bootloop? With my previous device, I could just remove the battery and put it back in then boot into recovery. Obviously can't do that now. So how do I turn the phone off, or enter recovery?
Anyone?
You can enter the recovery whenever you want by pressing the on/off button and the down volume button for about 10 seconds. When the Oneplus logo is on the screen release the on/off button but keep the down volume button pressed.
It works, I had a bootloop and fixed it by flashing the rom via twrp

Sorry, I got a little confused
Just to be clear, here's what I understood from what you said - Consider I turn my phone on and its stuck in a bootloop. What do I do then? Hold the power and vol down buttons? That will boot the recovery, even while the device is stuck in bootloop with the oneplus logo continuously showing?
Did I get it right?

I'm sorry I'm not English I may be unclear.
But yes, when you got the logo continuously showing, press the two buttons I said and it will reboot the phone, but you have to release only the on/off button when the oneplus logo will appear right after the beginning of the reboot. If you keep pressing the down volume button it will go to recovery
Have you got a oneplus x already ? You can try it right now, when your phone is awake. It's the same method as in a bootloop.

So I tried what you said, didn't exactly work When the phone was awake, did power+vol down. That just caused it to take a screenshot.
However, when I held down just the power button, the phone turned off. Then I had to turn it on by holding the power button. I did the same thing (holding down power button) while the phone was booting, it worked even then, and the phone again turned off.
So at least I can get into recovery now in case of bootloop. I just need to hold the power button till phone turns off, then boot into recovery using power+vol down combination.
Anyways, thanks for the help
Bootloop
I have the same thing.
Yesterday, I got my OPX and installed TWRP 2.8.7.0 and superSU. AFter using the phone all day, I rebooted and it is now saying in TWRP "no operating system".
I tried to flash the 2.1 full ROM and I get an error in both TWRP or in Stock recovery.
I need a way to get my system booted again and do a full reset. Any suggestions?

You can try a different twrp. There's 2 builds for our device. One is from the twrp thread itself, the other is available in the blu_spark kernel thread.

I tried the manipulation with the power button and the volume down but the reboot is too fast to enter bootloader
Indeed, my phone was under oos3.x and wanted to move to cyanogen ... but once the OEM Unlocked I tried to install TWRP, and that's when it is set to reboot systematically

Hi thank you for your return, but your link doesn't work!
For fastboot, unfortunately I can't access it because the phone restarts automatically so it doesn't work with on and volume down buttons and it doesn't work either with a computer.... Any other advise :'(

sounds like you got a bad phone
easy way to get to bootloader is power + volume down - this will bring up fastboot mode where you can flash TWRP
then power + volume up till the phone shuts off and switch to power + volume down again should boot to TWRP
once TWRP loads you have a bunch of options - restore a backup - flash a rom - format the partitions ...lots of thing you can do their

theirs not much you can do for a phone that doesn't turn on
I think I can throw away this phone. Maybe this phone have uncharged battery and now by the lack of system files, the phone can not be charged? you ever thought about that?
if I change the motherboard, the phone will work, right?
okay! I called to the site Huawei, they told me that the phone has a manufacturer's warranty by the IMEI number. I am from the Polish and if my phone was bought in Europe, I can make a phone warranty.
For all who will have the same problem, IMEI number can be found on the SD card slot.

What if phone is stuck in bootloop?

As this phone has a non-removable battery, how would one go around cutting the power when a bootloop occurs?

Just press and hold power and volume up key until you boot to a custom recovery like TWRP. Then flash the suitable ROM for the device and model. Or. Restore from previous backups.
