OnePlus X (Onyx) - Soft bricked
Boots into Fastboot mode, gets detected by PC.
No OS, No Recovery.
Problem: Recovery gets flashed successfully using adb and fastboot. But when trying to boot into recovery using commands, it says FAILED (remote:dtb not found); and when trying to boot into recovery using physical buttons, then it just stays on the OnePlus boot logo till eternity.
I tried using a flash tool as well(got from XDA), but the result is same.
Here is a look from cmd:
C:\platform-tools>fastboot reboot-bootloader

I tried flashing twrp 2.8.7.0(onyx) but still I got the same error. (remote:dtb not found). No matter what, but it just won't boot into recovery.
How it happened:
Long back, I unlocked my bootloader, installed twrp recovery and also achieved root access. Then I flashed CM13. It was working quite fine. But then OOS 3(Official) came out for OnePlus X, so I decided to download it and flash it too. It was working all fine. But then I realised that I lost my root access and my recovery was changed back to stock OnePlus recovery. After that I tried for 2 days to flash twrp back, but I continued to get that (remote:dtb not found) error. It was quite desperate; then I thought to lock the bootloader back and unlocking it back again. But the moment I used the command "fastboot oem unlock", my phone didn't ask me for a yes or no, so I tried restarting it. But it was too late, my phone got soft-bricked till then. I am trying to fix this since days, PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!
Try to create a Thread in the One Plus X Section .
A couple of days ago, I got an error on my phone (Motorola XT1033) saying that it cannot load the home screen. So, I restarted it in order to resolve the issue. However, it didn't reboot and since then it has been stuck in the Motorola logo.
I tried to do recovery or factory reset, but all the options lead to the same Motorola logo with no luck.
The only option that is working is AP Fastboot. I managed to unlock the bootloader by getting an unlock code from Motorola's website and using the mfastboot command. So I assume that the fastboot command is working since it detects the devices; however, I couldn't make ADB command to work since it give the error: 'device not found'.
Anyway, the second step is to flash the phone. According to this question, I should be able to do that. However, when I am running the command fastboot flash partition gpt.bin, I am getting the following result:
(bootloader) Variable not supported!
target max-download-size: 30MB
sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.022s]
writing 'partition'...
FAILED (remote failure)

I have been searching for days to solve this problem, but nothing yet! I don't know which part I am doing wrong.

I have been trying for the past few days to try to recover my CMR-W09(C00) device with no luck.
What it looks like now?
At the moment there is nothing showing on the screen regardless of what button combinations I've tried (Vol Up+Vol Down+Pwr/Vol Up + Pwr/Vol Down + Pwr, and each with USB power cable plugged in and without). The phone is able to get into fastboot mode (detected by running fastboot devices) automatically, fastboot reboot would get it to fastboot again (i.e., doesn't go to any other mode). The screen is completely dark with nothing at all.
From fastboot I can even see the current firmware version is 195. (CMR-W09C00B195 (8.0.0.195))
What did I do?
Flashed the 160 (CMR-W09C00E160R1P160B160 (9.0.1.160)) firmware which I found on firmware finder, and used EMUI Flasher to flash the firmware. (Found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/how-to/guide-manual-updating-firmware-t3893171) Flash seems to have worked and at 100% it said something along the line of checksum failed, rebooted, and never came back to life again.
What I have tried?
1. No eRecovery (that would be easy)
2. Use HiSuite to repair devices, received unsupported device error.
3. Flashed recovery-ramdis, recovery-vbmeta and recovery-vendor and ramdisk that were extracted from 195 OTA (http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G3776/g1699/v225819/f1/full/update.zip) and 160 OTA(http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G3776/g1699/v234512/f1/full/update.zip). Nothing happened. In Fastboot I can flash these three partitions and system, anything else would return command not allowed.
4. Tried DC Unlocker, when flashing xloader I got command not allowed error, in the end DC Unlocker refunded me.
5. Tried dload method with UPDATE.APP in dload folder only as well as the entire contents (META-INF/tags files and mbn files together with UPDATE.APP) in dload file, reboot using three button combo
6. In desperation I even tried to buy some "factory flash" image which was supposedly to be used by Huawei repair centres internally (with two zip files) to extract to dload folder. Again didn't do anything.
7. Tried to contacted FH to see if they support unbricking this and didn't hear a response.
8. Went to local Huawei authorized repair centre and they don't seem to have seen this device. They told me they can only fix devices bought locally.
9. Tried to flash in TWRP by flash the recovery_ramdisk partition.
All of above leads to nothing (i.e., it goes back to the blank screen with fastboot, however I can hear the USB connected and disconnected sound and HiSuite popped up again which tells me the reboot actually took place).

I think I am pretty much out of options right now, but if there is anything
Just wondering if there is anything else I haven't tried that I should?
I think "command not allowed" indicates that your bootloader is locked. If I am right about that, you will need to unlock your bootloader again before you flash anything via fastboot.
Download ONLY the Chinese hisuite, it support CMR-W09C00 as i have already checked
consumer.huawei.com/cn/support/hisuite/
Then reconnect the device with your pc, go to system recovery and follow the instructions
The global hisuite support only few devices
Plz report back to me if it worked
This happened to me once in my CMR-W09C432 i stucked in fastboot mode ( black screen) while i was trying to install the emui 9 beta, but i sent it to huawei service centre, they replaced the whole motherboard and i had to unlock the bootloader again.
But first of all do what i wrote above (the chinese hisuite)
Regards

Thanks for your input, I am able to write to recovery_ramdisk, recovery_vbmeta and recovery_vendor, as well as system partitions, however XLOADER and ERECOVERY* and FASTBOOT partitions seems to be out of touch.
Here are some more output from fastboot:

Are there multiple lock? What is the fblock? Would unlock that allow me to write to the XLOADER partition?

Thanks for your response, I've tried that and unfortunately it failed at 99% at the step Writing Recovery. (Simply said failed to repair with no other error).

I want to erase data because i can't do this unbrick method (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665)
despite that it worked before.
this problem appeared after many successful uses of the method mentioned above. The problem appeared after wanting to install an older rom on my OP6 for downgrade the play services
I am desperate, I searched for hours and hours on the internet so if a little genius goes through, a little help would not be refused
