Yesterday’s Lineage 17.1 nightly 29/05 did not have working telephony. No problem, install todays nightly, non booter! I am in a boot loop to Lineage Recovery with factory reset looking mighty attractive right now! GApps, Magisk & BusyBox...
What are my options?
EDIT:
I followed this guide to flash 17.1 LineageOS & GApps on Lake:
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/lake/install
I then separately (after first boot) followed step 5 of this guide to flash Magisk:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/guide-installing-lineage-t4075955
However am I missing a step for the Moto G7 Plus. I thought A/B booting was supposed to avoid this very scenario. In future I will keep a Nandroid backup, which will mean running TWRP insteada Lineage Recovery. Resetting LineageOS then booting into it minus Magisk & GApps I then flashed GApps from SD card but this resulted in all manner of wonkieness. Any help gratefully received.

Hello out there,
my problem is a bit annoying. Everything is fine if I use my OP3T with Oxygen (4.0.3) and TWRP (3.0.3-1). But I want to use LineageOS with TWRP and cant, because my TWRP isnt working after flashing lineage.
"Normal"-Setup:
- TWRP 3.0.3-1
- Oxygen 4.0.2 or 4.0.3 (doesn't matter)
- supersu 2.79
- Encrypted Device
"Lineage"-Setup:
- TWRP 3.0.3-1
- lineageOS (lineage-14.1-20170214-nightly-oneplus3-signed.zip OR lineage-14.1-20170208-nightly-oneplus3-signed.zip - tried both, doesnt matter)
- supersu 2.79
- openGApps for 7.1 nano
- Encrypted Device
My Problem is, that I can boot up lineage and use it, but if I reboot into my TWRP to flash something or make some Backups, it asks for my encryption-passphrase, it says it is okay and boots into the twrp main-windows. After that I can't touch anything (stuck in mainmenu) and after a few seconds it results into a black screen (plus white LED) and I am forced to reboot the device. After that reboot I have to reconfigure lineage (seems to loose data).
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this annoying "bug"?
Thank you very much!

EDIT: I found that Thread after searching for a issue like that in the lineageOS official Thread - I will try this and report! - Thank you! https://forum.xda-developers.com/on.../recovery-official-twrp-oneplus-3-3t-t3543391
I had the exact same problem when I hab LineageOS installed! It would always lose all its data. After flashing and reflashing a hundred times, I ended up reverting my OP3T back to stock using a OnePlus forum guide (I'm a new user, so I can't post the link). I am now back to OOS 4.0.3 but can't even get SuperSU to work. Whenever I flash it (with or without the dm-verity fix) the phone is stuck booting forever.
I found the post you linked to aswell but haven't tried flashing LineageOS using the new TWRP. But I can tell that the new version doesn't help rooting OOS...
Did you have any luck flashing LineageOS by now?
Edit: With the newest Lineage Version I always get an error when trying to flash it. Do you have the same problem? The nightly from two weeks ago seems to work better.
Use latest TWRP 3.0.4.1

That's what I'm doing... Could the dm-verity be a problem? There are two versions, one with opt and one with force in the name.
Thank you for your replies! The link (TWRP 3.0.4-1) worked like a charme!
@Tafelbomber: I would recommend you to start from scratch. But please be warned: you will loose your data! Make a backup first!
1. Delete everything with fastboot -w
2. Flash the recovery noted in my first post with fastboot flash recovery <twrp-filename.img>
3. Optional: Restart into the TWRP and flash the OOS 4.0.3 to make sure that you have a clean OS installed befor flashing lineage
4. Flash lineage OS + additional ZIPs (like supersu, betterbatterystats, Gapps etc)
5. Clean Dalvik and Cache!
6. Reboot and have fun. --> Sometimes you get problems with the encryption chain (Red Error --> in my case the fastboot -w did it for me)
Good luck - I will close this thread - thanks again for your help!

EDIT: I want to close this thread, but I don't know how.
After finally unlocking the bootloader (thanks everyone!), I went on to flash TWRP 3.3.1-25 Unofficial by mauronofrio (the TWRP linked in the LineageOS was not sticking, would constantly boot into stock recovery).
In TWRP I flashed LineageOS 17.1 but it would not boot and go straight back to TWRP, I carried out an advanced wipe (as suggested by another thread) and reinstalled only to have it go straight back to fastboot. I have tried formating data then reinstalling LineageOS but the same issue happens.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

LineageOS 17.1 comes with a own recovery. Use the installer.zip provided on twrp.me to install TWRP. After that start TWRP and format /data. That's necessary to install the GApps. Otherwise you end in a bootloop.
Now flash GApps and Magisk and boot into system.
You can also temporarily boot into TWRP with "fastboot boot twrp.img" in fastboot. Then do backups etc. and reinstall the system.
Got old S5 KLTE phone, ran 16.1, decided to update.
Flashed lineage-18.1-20210502-nightly-klte-signed.zip and now after long boot up animation it reboots straight into TWRP.
How do i get out of this loop ?
Make a backup, update TWRP, wipe everything, reflash LineageOS zip file and mindthegapps (optionally, if you need google services).
If you need further help, refer to the topic in the Unifed development subforum.
Hi, you can read my tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...g-galaxy-s5-from-stock-to-android-11.4354951/
Since the new version upgrade from LineageOS 19.1 to 20 requires a full update (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/hotdogb/upgrade), how would I make sure Magisk is updated without having to factory reset?
I'm running 19.1 with Gapps Nano and Magisk 25.2
You'll have to download the boot (recovery) image from your device's download section and patch/manual flash it after you're done updating to LOS 20. Pay attention to the update instructions - you'll need to reboot to recovery after installing LOS 20 and sideload your preferred gapps zip again, before doing anything else!
