this is retarded and i dont know how else to describe it.
failed to validate boot image. ret=-1
this phone has the latest aosip build 3.3 on it and i have not done anything to it since i flashed that build when the dev posted it A MONTH AGO. everything has been fine, normal, didnt even mess around with xposed on this flash....
i am browsing reddit, when an app downloads in the background. which app? i have no god damn idea. google play services stops, reddit stops, phone reboots and is stuck on fastboot. went to recovery. what do you know i cant access a backup even though i ALWAYS have one. what the bloody hell.
if i lose my data. somebody please help me.
Use fastboot to flash system and boot.
And if you are going to keep flashing stuff instead of just running stock, you should probably learn the basic methods of recovery BEFORE hand so you don't freak out and make long winded posts about how things are "retarded" because you don't know the basics of fixing problems.
so you relocked you're bootloader? what version of android is the phone on?

you can reflash your ROM, dirty, and won't lose any data. by dirty, I mean don't wipe a single thing. just reflash your ROM, gapps, SuperSU, and reboot.

twrp does have an option to mount, whichever partition you want. but it sounds as your bootloader is locked(I hope not), as recovery acts like yours is doing when the bootloader is locked. boot into your bootloader and see if it says locked or unlocked. also, you can use twrp to find that storage location if it just isn't showing properly.

then you do not own a brick, you just need to do some work and research to get your phone back. flashing a factory image would help, if you can't figure out what's wrong with twrp, you might even try fastboot flashing twrp again.

a dirty flash of your current ROM, but you need to figure out twrp first. or you can try fastboot flashing only the system.img from a factory.img.

Will it boot into fastboot? That is all you need, and you have been told several times you can just flash system.IMG with that, or reflash recovery... I'd flash the system.IMG of what ever version you last updated your bootloader to, or if your up to date just flash the most recent system to repair the os and boot to repair any kernel issues...

And please, a THANKS would be great if this helped you.
For some reason the phone one day just didn't boot. Was stuck on X logo.
We have tried alot... can't get into recovery, so flashed custom recovery, both RA and CWM... can't get into any of them, just stuck on X.
The phone was stock, and unrooted.
We managed to unlock bootloader via fastboot and root it.
Tried the PASSIMG.ZIP method - not working.
Any ideas?
.... please? =(
EDIT: Problem solved! Send me a PM if you're in the same seat, and i could send you all the files you need.
Oh, all you need is your FASTBOOT to work, no need for ADB, since it didn't work for me either.
EDIT #2:
The reason is that i have a file (ADB, and all the *.img's) needed on my server, and don't wanna post the link here so that's why i have done it thru PM.
But i'll update the first post and just delete the link, so when anyone needs it they can PM me.
So far (2012-02-10) 14 phones confirmed back up running, including mine. Got 2 unconfirmed, and just sent 5 PM's to guys with the same problem.
*** PM ME FOR THE LINK TO THE *.ZIP ***
Unzip, open an command promt, and:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash system system.img
do the commands in that order, and when you are done reboot the phone
and see if it boots.
if NOT: keep on flashing ONLY the boot.img again and again until it
boots. it seems like the boot partition is corrupted and may need alot
of flashing until it works.
i think i flashed like 100 times before it booted. =)
There is also another recovery in that zip... RA's recovery. You can also try that one, no harm done!
Once you get it to boot, you will have FroYo 2.2 installed.
If you got it to boot with recovery.img just let android update to latest (2.3.7?)
If you have RA's recovery, just flash back recovery.img or you wont be able to upgrade to 2.3.7 "the stock way"

When we searched yesterday (google), we found some ppl who had fixed it, now i can't find those pages again..
So anyone here who knows what to try?
I've been in a similar situation before and just kept fastboot flashing system, recovery, and boot, and eventually I recovered the phone...
I assume since you mentioned that you unlocked the bootloader, that you can get into fastboot? If so, flash a custom recovery (I'd recommend CWM since it includes an option to wipe the system partition) and boot into it.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "c:\location\to\recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery "c:\location\to\recovery.img
If you can get that far, wipe your /system partition and do a factory reset. Then install CM7 (or whatever ROM you want) and gapps.

But we have tried to fastboot system.img, boot.img and recovery.img
Still stuck on X.
Is that code any different perhaps?
I can't try that now, that's why i ask instead of try it =)
All the commands that I posted are supposed to do is install a custom recovery and then boot into it. From recovery, you need to wipe your device by wiping the /system partition and doing a Factory Reset/Data Wipe. Then install whatever ROM you want to.
I've never tried using fastboot to install the system image, so I can't comment on that at all.
O M G!!!
i actually got the phone up and running!! everything is working now, i'm just too awesome
If anyone is interested, i could find out what i did, and which files i flashed, etc etc.

I've mine unlocked with "fastboot oem unlock", but I'm not able to root the phone. In fact, I think I've lost my stock recovery, I didn't check it before unlock, so I'm not even sure if the recovery had been missing before the phone was unlocked. When I try to boot into recovery now, all I get is an android robot on its belly with a red warning triangle on it. I also can't boot/flash custom recovery either, adb seems the phone just fine, but it tries to push the recovery, the phone just freeze up.
Someone else on android central forum also has his stock recovery missing right out of the box, getting the same belly-up robot as mine, very strange.

I don't want to permanently flash a custom recovery like CWM, only want to sideload it to flash SuperSU and gain root. The command I use is "fastboot boot recovery.img" where recovery.img being the name of CWM. Don't know why it's not working though.

Yes, that's the stock recovery. You then have to press power + volume up (in the case of the Nexus 4, for example). You have to manually flash CWM as you would for the normal One
e.g. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You apparently can no longer 'boot' into CWM - you have to flash it

Relax, deep breath. You need to use fastboot from bootloader. Issue these commands:
fastboot format cache
fastboot format userdata
That should get you into TWRP and from there you can transfer a ROM to internal, flash it and go from there.

Are you flashing recovery like this:

Yes my bootloader is unlocked and yes that's exactly how I flash it (except I named it recovery)

Make sure you never downgrade the bootloader or partition table, so yes, use the latest Android 6.0 MarshMallow firmware, in case something gets corrupted and you need to reflash the partition table and/or bootloader, or even the full stock firmware, so you can start again.
Flashing SuperSU is always risky, and I've never done it; I only use CM's built-in Root Access.

I really don't know, as I only have the one phone, and don't want to take any risks with, I never looked into rooting, and never needed it anyway. But if I ever need the odd root access, CyanogenMod does it for me.

Ok, so I tried the Kingroot method and it took out my wifi and cellular network (doesn't turn on).
So I flashed the system files in the marshmallow and now my system doesn't boot. xD!
One question: is there any single marshmallow system zip file I could flash in one go to increase chances of resurrection? What's annoying is that I can't seem to get custom recovery working.

Since we don't know for sure what's causing it not to boot, might as well flash the whole fimware, I think you can paste all the commands at once, or create a batch file in the firmware folder, flash.bat, shift+right-click, open command window here... type flash.bat
Or you can use RSD Lite
If/when you lose signal/data/wifi you can try flashing just the modems from stock:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
Hi everyone.
I was trying to flash Nitrogen OS. First I flashed the latest firmware, then the actual rom and then GAPPS. After that my mobile got stuck in Oneplus logo without being able to go into recovery mode.
I tried using fastboot to flash the files in this thread(https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/unbrick-unbrick-tutorial-oneplus-3t-t3515306) which worked once, but even after that I can't surpass the logo screen.
I've been trying to look for information but I can't find anything.
To clarify:
- I already tried erasing userdata and cache from fastboot
-I already tried flashing recovery images from twrp, stock and bluspark
Thanks in advance guys.

I've run into plenty of bricks like this and I'm usually able to get back to recovery by forcing the device off (vol up + power hold) and rebooting back to recovery. and if that doesn't work I can at least get to the bootloader and re-flash a recovery file.

I was using last bluspark recovery. I was flashing OB21 when everything happened.
There is no way I can access to recovery. I tried reflashing the stock recovery from that unbricking thread with all the other things through fastboot and I can't boot into recovery at all. It is the first time I face this error so I am lost.

okay, well what I would do is boot into the bootloader, and then reflash the blu_spark recovery via adb so you can boot into it. then wipe everything and restart. but this time I would try the OB 20 firmware and not the 21. when I was on NOS I used that one and it worked just fine. I'm not sure if it made a difference, but I flashed the firmware both right before and right after flashing NOS

It doesnt recognize my device through adb and I don't know why. If that worked I would have tried to sideload some firmware, but when I do adb devices it doesn't appear

idk if it'll recognize as an adb device if it's in the bootloader. maybe try fastboot devices? sorry, I'm just spitballin here

Somehow fastboot devices does send me that my device is there but adb devices no, I will try looking into that to see if that works. Thanks for the help anyway

yeah! try fastboot flash recovery "recovery file name".img
make sure that recovery img file is in the platform-tools file (or wherever your adb files are) and see if that works!

I mean idk if you wanna do this, but you could always try to "format userdata", then flash the stock recovery, and then sideload OOS. but you would lose all of your data in your internal storage, and it's still not a guarantee. there are some posts about doing a full wipe and starting from scratch. I'd look into those. Best of luck reviving your OP3T

just a tip, try posting the output instead of "it's not working",
so the devs here might be able to analyze the problem..

I already post a lot of information on the first post:
Mobile not passing the first time Oneplus logo appears.
Only fastboot is working, not adb, not recovery.
I already tried flashing other recoveries and the stock one->Can't pass Oneplus logo anyway
Tried formatting userdata through fastboot and flashing the .img files from my first post->Not working
Then just do the Qualcomm restore and unlock, boot to fastboot and flash the latest TWRP. Then boot into TWRP and format cache partitions, system and data and then adb sideload using this option under TWRP advanced to flash firmware zip, NitrogenOS zip and then 8.1 Gapps and try booting to see if same thing happens again. You are using the NitrogenOS stock kernel and not some other?

What do you mean by the Qualcomm restor and unlock? I already tried the flashing of latest TWRP and it did not work.
I was coming from Validus last beta but did a previous factory reset and that stuff.
Thank you for the answer

What he meant is probably unbrick tool - https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/unbrick-unbrick-tutorial-oneplus-3t-t3515306
Try flashing official firmware with it and then try again by flashing TWRP and flashing Nitrogen.

I can't install the drivers:
-First, stupid Windows policy saying that its driver is the best one available.
-Second, choosing from a disk to avoid one saying that the driver is not a x64 one.

None of that answer what he actually asked, which is: what was the output (error message, result, etc.) when you tried to flash TWRP?
Did it flash successfully, but still can't boot to TWRP? Or else, what was the exact error message?
In general, when asking for help and giving status, be specific as possible, and give as many details as possible. Saying you "tried xxx" or "it did not work" is not specific enough.
Seems silly, but I've seen a lot of times where it's as simple as the user not using the correct command or entering the right file name.

There were no errors when flashing TWRP. When I tried rebooting using fastboot(fastboot boot recovery.img) it got stuck in the message saying booting up... and the only thing that changed was that my phone left the bootloader screen to a screen with the Oneplus logo and a fastboot mode message under it.
The command I used was fastboot flash recovery recovery.img(Name of the actual recovery file)
