Yes, AutoRec will work just fine. I've used it plenty of times on 26A.

But in my case the AutoREC can't flash those 24A, 24A, 12A/B ... in zip format ... all ERROR can't read ZIP file....
You got any idea where I could get the working VS98026A Stock ROM?
THank in advance

Autorec doesn't use a zip, it just does the behind the scene things needed to flash TWRP then flashes it. Can you clarify what you're trying to do?

As far as I could see that latest AUTORec.apk installation is now included with TWRP already. After rooted my phone, installed AUTOREC, grant root and flashing customer recovery image straight aways, I could flash some ZIP file but not those ROM such VS98011A, VS98024A, VS98026A, etc all return FAIL - Can't Read Zip file. But I from AutoREC recovery menu, I could install Spirit ROM.zip and others.
Why only those stock ROM in zip format are FAIL to be flashed from within AUTOREC/TWRP ????

Autorec flashes TWRP, that's it, once in recovery you're just using TWRP. You can delete Autorec from your phone after you're done flashing TWRP. Anyway, you can't install stock releases via TWRP unless a dev modifies one to be flashed. Care to point to one of the zip's you're trying to flash?

If I recall correctly, AutoRec doesn't have the most up-to-date recovery built-in. I just flashed the latest afterward.

Correct, AutoRec comes with 2.7.0.0. I tried upgrading Twrp by flashing the latest Twrp zip and it failed. I guess it's just my device. I looked for the 2.8.1.0. Img file but couldn't find it.

Hey!
Thanks a lot. Really helped solve my problem!
No problem
This doesn't belong in Development.
Actually i am not sure where should this be.. I'd request modders to please move it to the correct board!
Thanks man!

Since you've probably lost your custom recovery upgrading to 5.0.1, you can grab the TWRP images for Nexus 5 here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hammerhead
I believe you need to use 2.8.1.0 since 2.8.2.0 either doesn't work or is causing problems for many users.

Isn't CF-Auto root adding files from the 5.0 release over the 5.0.1 ? Isn't it safer to wait for a 5.0.1 autoroot?

How did you update from a rooted (with CF-Auto Root) 5.0 to 5.0.1 you just received the OTA and installed it without any problems ?
I like to know because i am on 5.0 stock just rooted with CF_Auto root.
So no more need for CF-Auto?
Just flashing SuperSU zip with TWRP is enough?
I flashed a Custom Rom Using TWRP which doesn't have any root permission...

Guys, i installed the 5.0.1 update by fastboot flashing system, boot and radio. I lost my custom recovery tho (CWR). I now tried to install TWRP, but after flashing the recovery image, the recovery still hasnt changed. Could i just flash CRW or should i use TWRP for this version?

This. I flash with it here since 4.4.4 and it did everything just fine. Not only it is an app to automatically root, but it gives very good hints, and provides lots of others features like installing Apks, getting a adb prompt, and so much more. Greatest third party Android app I have tried. Highly recommended, didn't even had to wait they update it for 5.0.1, as soon I got the 5.0.1 OTA notification, Nexus Root Toolkit was already ready for it.

This is lollipop security, custom recover wouldn't stick, after each reboot it will replaced with stock one, of course there is a way to make it sticky just search the forum.

That's always been enough. You can use Cf's auto root if you don't want to use a custom recovery.

I installed 5.1.1 via smart switch and lost root. I enabled allow OEM unlock and tried the CF autoroot technique. It flashed fine but it gets stuck on the Galaxy S6 splash screen with the message "bootloader is not SEandroid enforcing" (duh....) I found another thread that said to try the 920t cf autoroot which I did and it had the same result. I have since recovered my phone back to stock 5.1.1 but I would really like to join the club and get root working once again. Is there a current solution for this or is it just a waiting game now?
thanks for any help.
If you are on stock 5.1.1 all you have to do now is either flash the 5.1.1 unikernel (in unified development section) or flash the rooted stock debloated rom posted in the Looper thread. If that was confusing just let me know lol I'll try to help you locate

Odin flashing just twrp does not root
the phone. If you do it that way, and don't flash the rooted kernel before booting, you will boot and stock recovery will replace twrp

Correct. First make sure you're on 5.1.1 already. Then flash twrp in odin. Then immediately boot into twrp and flash the unified kernel for 5.1.1

Download SuperSU 2.76: https://download.chainfire.eu/969/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip
Put that .zip file on your phone.
Flash TWRP via Odin and manually boot into recovery mode using the key combination (Volume up, Home button and Power button)
Then flash SuperSU.
That should fix the bootloop.

Glad it worked, N920C and N920CD use the same firmware so yes you can use the modem and bootloaders in the OP.
The new Touchwiz ROMS require the kernel to be patched after installing a custom recovery or they will bootloop.

I am upgrading my OP3T from 5.0.1 to 5.0.3. My device is rooted using magisk and I have TWRP installed.
The system updates says -
"Root is detected, system will begin dowloading the full package. Your device will be un-rooted once the upgrade is completed."
Now my questions are
1. How to install the upgrade (5.0.3) without unrooting it ?
2. As it says it'll un-root my device, does it also mean it'll wipe my data as well ?
EDIT - I read about Dirty flashing the version I want but I can't find 5.0.3 image on Oneplus website.

1. You can't.
2. No, but you can re-root it using TWRP (which will need to be reflashed via fastboot).

Re-flashing magisk via TWRP will keep my data ?
It's the same as with all previous updates.
Go to TWRP, flash the whole rom,.don't exit,.flash latest Magisk,.done.
Everything will be as before, with the new system installed

Can you elaborate more on this ?
After I upgrade (and it becomes unrooted). I immediately flash magisk via TWRP ?
I didn't get the part "flash the whole rom and don't exit" ?
Also, Will I lose any data in the process ?

Nothing will be lost even if you don't flash Magisk, so yes.
And Rastaviper meant that when you flash the update via TWRP, you don't reboot, but right after flashing the ROM you flash Magisk and then reboot, this way you will stay rooted.

So no need to fastboot flash recovery?
Correct me if I'm wrong, so you dl the zip, you flash it, you then flash magisk zip? Then what? You boot up and install twrp manager in order to change recovery?

If you flash the update downloaded as zip from downloads.oneplus.com via TWRP, then no, there will be no need to flash it again via fastboot and no need to install TWRP Manager.
Boot to TWRP
Flash 5.0.3 zip
Flash Magisk
Reboot & enjoy
OK thanks! I thought the recovery would go back to stock after flashing the rom

That only happens if you reboot the phone while on the stock boot image. If you use a patched boot image, or a custom kernel, or Magisk, then the stock recovery doesn't overwrite the current recovery.

Magisk makes a point of not touching the system partition but a lot of its magic is done by changing the boot image.
