I had TWRP installed and enrolled in the beta program. I just downloaded the official 7.0 through the push notification and clicked, "Restart and Install." Now, my phone boots automatically into TWRP. I've turned it off, then back on and same thing. Any ideas how to get out of this?
Boot into bootloader from recovery and select start.

Yeah but it still can't install the update,any way fix it?
Boot to bootloader and flash the stock recovery from factory image. Then boot into stock recovery and the update should start.
The same happened to me. Disappointing, since the previews all worked (for me) in TWRP.
I just downloaded the OTA and sideloaded it, flashed TWRP, rebooted into TWRP and installed SuperSU 2.78. Worked fine.

May I ask which version of TWRP did you use?
twrp-3.0.2-0-shamu.img
you cant flash an official factory image in twrp..this is a known fact...
Is that comment aimed at me? Did you actually read my post? Can you point me at the relevant part where I get it wrong?
Feel free to apologise any time.

You are side loaded ota then flash twrp . But in op he was flashed ota via twrp and now os corrupted and he is not able to boot into system. All ota can flashed via stock recovery , i think. He have to flash firmware now via fast boot. Am i correct . If anything wrong ,you can correct.
Everybody should be friends in XDA.
It seems that people don't read posts before writing. The OP clearly said that he had applied the OTA. I clearly said that this was exactly what I did with the same result. I also clearly explained what I did to fix it. The next comment should be from the OP saying what he's doing to recover. If he does what I did he'll be fine.

He can reinstall stock recovery and side load from there
Either flash the stock recovery.img through twrp or
Flash stock recovery through fastboot or
Install factory image through fastboot

To avoid issues, I'd say make sure you're 100% stock, recovery and all before installing an official update. Like I said, just to be sure it won't fail.
I got the the OTA notification before work yesterday. All day at work I was itching to install it but with no PC I couldn't risk it. I was on the DP5 with TWRP, no root, and unlocked. I couldn't wait. I flashed the OTA with TWRP after I restored a backup of when I first installed DP5. TWRP throw a couple of errors but after about 10 minutes of hanging on the boot animation it finally booted. My phone was encrypted but other then that it was fine. I was gonna root it afterwards but I was on stock recovery after flashing the OTA so I couldn't do anything until I got home. Made a noforc-nonverify boot IMG throw on TWRP reformatted. Running great now.
Edit: My DP5 boot.img was also noforc-nonverify.

Hello lovely XDA-members,
this morning a new OTA update/patch came out for my OnePlus 3T, so I downloaded and tryed to install it right away. My phone is rooted on android 7.0 and I have TWRP 3.0.3-0 installed as my recovery. Normally (when I updated to nougat) after downloading a new update the phone reboots itself into TWRP and installs the update by itself, but not this time. I had to seqrch through my phone and had to install thw update manually. After that I rebooted the phone and it started booting the TWRP recovery again, I tried it again and again and again, nothint changed. So I tried to restore my backup with everything functioning, but this wouldnt help either. :/ I read the few existing threads with this problem and heard of a recovery flag that isnt cleared and the bootloader being the problem. One solution that I found was only for an LG phone and I'm afraid that I'll brick my brand new phone I have absolutely no idea what to do now, I would be so happy if someone could help me with this :$
I thank you in advance <3
Encoutered the same problem. Either you reflash the official or twrp recovery (neither did the trick to me) or use this "emergency tool" (which helped me):
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/unbrick-guide-oneplus-3t.481214/
Btw: TWRP 3.0.3-0 is not working well, switch to 3.0.3-1 beta
Good luck to you
I had the same problem.
How you can ''unbrick it'':
1. Flash a any rom available for the oneplus 3t via twrp
a. after this you will be still in twrp bootloop, to solve this go to step 2
2. Flash back stock recovery via twrp
Now your system will boot again
Optional: Flash back twrp
Just flash stock recovery via adb and you're done. It will fix the problem, you won't lose any data

Hi everyone,
Just taking my chances if anyone in here encountered the same issue. I'm currently on EVA-L19C636B381 and the System Updater is asking me to update to B390. However, I've tried downloading the update several times but keep on getting the "Software Install Failed" error message. Any ideas on how I can update the firmware and ensure that updates will be installed seamlessly moving forward?
Note that the bootloader was unlocked before and it used to have TWRP. Now I've relocked the bootloader and installed the stock recovery.
Thanks!
Clarification:
Version: EVA-L19C636B381 (everything's stock: BOOT, RECOVERY, RECOVERY2, SYSTEM)
Would like to update to: B390
Issue: Getting "Software install failed" error message after downloading through System Update
** Used to have TWRP and root. Flashed stock IMGs
Update:
Issue solved! Please see last post for the update/solution.

If you had TWRP, maybe you also rooted - root will also block OTA (you had to unroot in that case).
Btw, unlocked bootloader does not prevent/affect OTA

Hi zgfg!
Thanks for the response. Yeah, if I'm not mistaken, it used to be rooted. However, I've installed stock B381 and stock recovery already, and still getting the error message. Checked with Root Checker and it says that there's no root access.

Rooting affects Boot partition, it must be flashed back to stock. And it's recommended to Hard reset then, before OTA. For OTA, go to Settings, and choose Full upgrade

Yeah, that's what I did. Basically, everything's stock already. That's why I don't understand why I'm still getting the error message.
You can try downloading the full stock rom package and manually update with the dload method.

Hi noalt! Thanks for the response.
Yeah, kinda wondering if that'll work. For the dload method, does it really require an SD card? Also, for the dload method, it is okay to get the latest full package instead? (Upon checking using Firmware Finder, the latest one is B395 or B396)
Any steps that I can follow to do a sort of "clean install"? As in free of any modifications? In short, some kind of steps as alternative for using System Update (which I can't use due to the error message I'm getting)?
You can use any stock rom you like. If it is the same or higher build, you may not need to do a rollback. The dload method only works from sd-card. It will be a clean install.
I think the dload method is the safest. Alternatives are flashing images indiviually through fastboot but I have no experience with that, except for the recovery.img

I see. Regarding the dload method, if by sd-card you're referring to the internal memory, I'm afraid I've tried that (creating a dload folder and putting nothing else but the UPDATE.APP file inside) and I'm getting a Software Install Failed error message as well. :crying:
No, I mean a micro sd card. You can put one in the tray next to your sim card. And then you have to shut down you phone and boot it holding vol+ vol- and power until you get into the updater.

Ah yes, that's the one that I have yet to try (as I don't have an SD card, the other spare phone that I have is a 5s).
UPDATE:
I eventually was able to install EVA-L19C363B395!
Initially, I was having issues with the partitions (as I tinkered around a bit with TWRP) and was stuck with the Huawei logo and not proceeding with the booting. So what I did was I flashed BOOT.img, SYSTEM.img, RECOVERY.img, and RECOVERY2.img from the stock B381 (use the Huawei Update Extractor to get it from the UPDATE.APP file from the update.zip (the large file), do some Googling to find it here in XDA . Then I was still experiencing the said issue so I used the stock recovery's features: "Wipe data/factory reset" and "Wipe cache partition" to sort of repair the issues with the partitions (didn't know how to properly do it in TWRP.
Then B381 booted and was able to access USB debugging (initially had issues with this as well, after flashing images, Settings app kept on crashing when trying to access Security and Developer options).
And then finally followed the HWOTA procedure made by @Atarii. Make sure that you're going to use the proper recovery file for your version (L09, L19, etc). According to the steps, being rooted is also required so I used @zgfg's SuperSU 2.82 permissive (https://mega.nz/#F!w41RmZKB!IG53JadhjUKgFK8anbctIw). Make sure to flash it before flashing the nocheck recovery file.
And voila! That should do it. Based on what I'm seeing, root has been removed after doing the HWOTA procedure, same goes for TWRP, and bootloader's locked again.
Thanks to all of those who responded and credit goes to @Atarii and @zgfg for the procedure and file/link.
Today, after i installed the latest OOS 5.0.1 with Android O 8.0, i decided to root my device.
After successfully unlocking the bootloader, i flashed the TWRP Recovery and flashed the SuperSU zip, i was stuck on the 1+ Boot logo. I tried fixing the contents through advanced options of TWRP recovery and still no luck. I also tried wiping my cache, data, dalvik etc...
So far i tried:
Installed stock recovery via fastboot, then adb sideload. My device was recognized when typing ADB Devices but when i tried to adb sideload ota.zip i got the cannot read *...zip* error. Then i tried everything i could find, my devices are installed correctly, i also tried the Large Address Awarness program and still no luck.
Then i flashed TWRP again through fastboot and try to do the same through TWRP's sideload. Still no luck
Then i tried to adb push the ota.zip so i can install it manually through TWRP recovery.. still no luck
I ran out of ideas.... What can i do?
Thanks in advance
First of all, why didn't you make a TWRP backup of the stock ROM before trying to root? This is best practice before trying any mods (root, flashing ROMs) for reasons which are probably now obvious. I'm always surprised at how many folks skip this step.
Maybe you planned ahead of time to use the stock recovery image, if you had to. But since it wasn't on the phone when you need it, you're running into the problem of getting it on there now.

What version TWRP, and what version SuperSU?
Honestly, I would recommend Magisk for root, over SuperSU. I've seen a number of folks have problems with recent version SuperSU on this device. And Magisk has a lot of really cool, useful features. I'm normally not one to recommend one method over another. Especially since SuperSU was so tried and true for so long. But at this point, I see no benefit of using SuperSU, but many benefits to Magisk. And seemingly less problems rooting with Magisk. My recommendation would be current version Magisk, which is v16.0.

First of all, make sure you are using the "full" update zip (which will be >1 GB) and not the partial OTA "patch". You can get the full zip from here (Post #2): https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/official-oxygenos-5-0-1-android-8-0-t3728119
Since you have TWRP installed, boot into TWRP. You should be able to see your internal storage on your computer, just like it's a thumb drive. Just drag/copy and drop the full OTA zip onto the phone's internal storage. Then just flash the zip in TWRP.
The internal storage should be selected to "Mount" in TWRP by default. But if you can't see internal storage on your computer, make sure it's selected in the TWRP "Mount" section.

You can verify by booting to TWRP. It says version number on the splash screen.

I did make a nandroid backup from TWRP i just didnt restore it because i thought it was TWRP’s issue due to dm-variety... my bad but whatever
Yeah i have read about Magisk i just didnt investigate enough to know exactly what it is was so i thought it would be better to go for SuperSU because thats what i used on every android device i has... my bad aswell here
About the full update zip.. i’ll try that because i think i was trying to sidelod the ota patch which was 1.6gb...(but still, is the “cannot read xxx.zip” related with what zip file do i sideload? Whatever ill try it when i get home

TWRP and root shouldn't normally trip DM-verity (make the phone not boot).
I don't think it will hurt anything at this point to restore the backup you made. You're already trying to flash stock recovery, anyway (which is not that different).
If the restore is successful (phone boots to OS), then just flash Magisk and be done with it!

I wouldn't say it's "your bad". Magisk is just a suggestion or recommendation. Some folks have had success with SuperSU. But also seems like a lot more folks than usual, having problems (like no boot) with SuperSU than I'm used to seeing. And as I mentioned, I don't see any benefit of SuperSU (over Magisk) at this point. I was slow to change as well. But after trying Magisk, there has been no going back for me since. So therefore, the suggestion.
You didn't mention what version SuperSU, but 2.82 SR5 is recommended. It's in beta now, so if you used the "stable" 2.82 version, that might be the problem right there.
Yiannis75 said:

If it was 1.6GB, than it was the full update (at least one of them). I typed ">1 GB" so any OTA zip for this device greater than 1 GB should be okay. It's the OTA zips that are less than 1 GB that you need to watch out for, as it is not a full update, just a partial "patch" (don't flash on a modded device with TWRP or you will soft brick!).
I don't personally use sideload. While I see the convenience, I find it a bit messy. I've seen folks have problems with sideload, when simply putting the ROM on the phone and flashing with TWRP works fine (so in those cases sideload itself was the point of failure).
Now of course, getting the ROM on the phone is the problem, in your case.

If posting on a thread, related to your issue; it would make sense to actually read the responses in the thread. Since your question is already answered.
In short, you need to use SuperSU 2.82 SR5. The "stable" version 2.82 won't work, and will result in no boot. Or use Magisk 16.0.
If the phone still won't boot after (only) flashing the proper version SuperSU or Magisk; then flash the full stock update file using TWRP. Then flash the right version SuperSU or Magisk.
Hey everyone
I recently got this phone and went through the bootloader unlock process.
I then tried to follow the instructions on this page https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/rosemary/install/ to get this rom installed but somehow ****ed it up.
Everything went well until I tried to flash the recovery img from this page: https://get.pixelexperience.org/rosemary (i downloaded the 13 plus recovery img).
I flashed the img via fastboot but after that I got stuck in fastboot. The phone is stuck in a bootloop when I try to reboot into recovery or normal boot. The only thing I can get back into is fastboot.
Would really appreciate any help to get the phone working again. Im not new to android custom roms but Im new to xiaomi phones and Im a little lost
Thanks.
OK nevermind I successfully got the phone booting again with miflash tool by reflashing an official firmware...
Greetings!
You can install the rom via adb sideload too. Put on some random recovery (see my tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/twrp-on-android-12.4522273/), and start adb sideload.
Then,
adb sideload insert_package_name.zip

As this phone has an MTK processor, we don't really have a recovery image, it's stored in the boot img I suppose. That link, you can download the official rom to this. DISCLAIMER: There are two types of ROMs listed here, one type is fastboot, that you need now in order to flash it through a computer for example. The another type is the recovery rom, that you can flash from recovery like a magisk package, or anything flashable zip, or with adb sideload.

You should choose global if you are in Europe, but it's suitable for devices in the US or USA probably, ony feature differences are here between an EEA and Global rom.
Also, if you install pixel experience recovery, you can install the firmware by going into recovery, and do it via sideload. Or, you can try flashing the rom with TWRP (tutorial linked below), but then you won't able to install updates automatically.
One question: Did you checked in OEM unlocking in developer options before flashed PE?
Hope it helps!
Yeah, I did checked the oem unlocking. I think the reason why i failed because my bootloader probably updated and I forgot to check. You need bootloader version 12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM to install the pixel experience. Also thank for help
Greetings!
You can install the rom via adb sideload too. Put on some random recovery (see my tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/members/gurtnyi.11842195), and start adb sideload.
Then,
adb sideload insert_package_name.zip
Hope it helps! ; D

Can I do that on newer firmware or should I roll back to version 12.5.16.0.RKLMIXM? And if I roll back then I need to unlock device again?
I think you can. I've flashed it successfully on the latest version too. Currently I don't use PE but it was good for me.
Well, regarding to the unlock, it's not a big deal, you don't have to wait 168h again, once you've firstly unlocked your device, you can re-unlock it again, and again, no matter how many times, you don't have to wait a lot again.
But depending on how you rollback it,
I mean, with xiaomi flasher (i think that's its name) you can choose between clean all and lock, save userdata, and clean all, but in the first case, it'll lock back the bootloader. With SP flash tool (if you need, I can provide a link for the modified version of it, that doesn't require an auth file, but if fails, you need a python script, I can link that too), as I remember it won't lock back the device, but I'm not a 100% sure
Hope it helps!

Happy to hear that!
By the way, yes, pe recovery is better for sideloading, or eventually any not stock recovery. Also, if you install PE recovery, you can apply updates automatically, and in the future you won't need to flash it manually.
