This thread is meant to address all the common hurdles that are commonly faced by people who are new to treble devices (chef to be specific) and help them to troubleshoot/avoid some small yet critical steps during flashing new ROMs and working with fastboot and recovery in general. It will be continually updated with new stuff as it goes along.
I will be referring to the Motorola One Power and Moto P30 Note as chef only from now on.
The unlocking guide is available in This XDA Thread!
IMPORTANT:
1. Flashing refers to the process of doing a clean flash, with the inclusion of fastboot -w command
2. Latest ADB and Fastboot drivers are required to be installed, else the installation may halt mid-way.
3. Stock ROM refers to the Android One ROM for the Motorola One Power [XT 1942-2]
IMPORTANT: AS OF RIGHT NOW, PEOPLE WHO HAVE INSTALLED STOCK PIE (EITHER VIA UPDATE OR FIRMWARE) WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE ANY OTHER ROM OTHER THAN THE STOCK PIE ROM. RADIO INTERFACE LAYER IS BROKEN IN OREO SOURCE BUILT ROMS AND THAT CURRENTLY INCLUDES LINEAGE 16 SO PLEASE WAIT FOR PIE SOURCE CODE FROM MOTOROLA FOR THAT TO BE FIXED.
1. I unlocked my chef . How do I flash TWRP in place of the stock recovery?
Solution:Currently you cannot as there is no recovery partition in the device. You have to manually boot TWRP onto the device using fastboot to use it. Follow as directed:
Boot the device into fastboot mode
Use command fastboot boot <path/to/TWRP.img> to boot TWRP temporarily.
2. I am done with TWRP and I want to flash Lineage OS 16 on my chef. I simply flash the .zip archive right?
Solution:No. Before you flash anything,
Take a backup of atleast your EFS and PERSIST partitions using TWRP and off-load it for safekeeping to restore in future if needed. You can also trigger a full backup if you require.
SUPER IMPORTANT: Flash this .zip file to copy the System A/B partitions. If this step is skipped, you will be responsible to brick your own device. THIS STEP IS ONLY REQUIRED ONCE AND ONLY ONCE IN THE LIFETIME OF YOUR DEVICE! YOU WON'T BE NEEDING THIS THE NEXT TIME YOU FLASH ANY ROM. .
After that, flash your dearest custom ROM and get going.
For Lineage OS 16, follow This XDA Thread.
3. I am done testing LOS 16, I want to flash a GSI. Shall I use a stock Vendor Image for the GSI on my chef?
Solution:No. The stock Vendor image is causing bootloop issue in most GSIs. It is recommended to use Lineage OS Vendor to flash a GSI on chef. So flash LOS and then flash your favourite GSI.
Also, Super Important: for those who haven't used lineage before flahing a GSI, it is required to boot Lineage OS first before flashing a GSI.
4. I am done experimenting, I want to go back to the stock image. How do I proceed?
Solution:Follow this XDA thread for it. And don't install OTA updates directly from the device. It will come in the next step.
5. I want to install OTA updates on the stock ROM. How do I proceed?
Solution:Follow this XDA post for it. The installation process is described here. You have to be clever enough to get the appropriate OTA update.

Anyone have flashed GSI ROM? FOr me after flash GSI HavocOS have bootloop :/
DIdn't flash copy system A/B partitions, stuck on bootloop with custom roms.
Watched some youtube videos and didn't read this post before flashing custom ROM. Flashed Custom ROM without flashing A/B partitions. Now I have a phone stuck on bootloop when done anything in TWRP. or I can use my phone with stock ROM installed by fastboot method.
Installing or restoring anything from TWRP results in boot loop.
Restoring the backup I made before flashing, completes the restoration process normally. But when rebooting to system, TWRP prompts me that no OS is installed. If I reboot anyway, its either stuck on bootloop or reboots to recovery and asks me to try again or factory reset, or boots into bootloader mode.
Installing custom ROM begins with Step 1, takes a bit time and starts step 2 and shows completed. Doesn't echos any comments. But when i reboot, same prompt shows saying no OS installed. Reboot anyway and stuck on bootloop or reboots to recovery and aks me to try again or factory reset, or boots into bootloader mode.
Now I installed stock ROM with fastboot method and phone is boots up into system just fine.
Sometimes TWRP can't mount anything.
So am I stuck with stock rom or is there any solutions?
Also, installing stock ROM with fastboot mode showed this error in between scripts
(bootloader) is-logical:xxx_a: not found
and
(bootloader) is-logical:xxx_b: not found
but is able to use the phone just fine with stock ROM.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, or any other hardware malfunctions that come as a result of flashing anything. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it
Hey everyone,
I am writing this guide because I spend all day trying to figure out how to upgrade my grandma's tablet from android 7 TouchWiz to android 9 pie. I did not create any of the files that I am about to link just putting all the info in one place because I feel it's needed.
Before starting my grandam's tablet was running android 7.0 TouchWiz. So if you are in the same situation do the following.
Download the following
Odin3-v3-10-7
SM-T350 Marshmallow Firmware (check second post for faster mirror)
TWRP-3.2.1
PIE ROM of Choice
Open Gapps (Remember Platform: ARM | Android Version : 9.0| Variants: Your Choice)
Root (Optional): Magisk
Instructions
1. Put your tablet in download mode by turning it off then pressing and hold [Power] [Vol-Down] & [Home] at the same time till a cyan warning screen appear.
2. Press Volume Up to Continue.
3. Connect the Tablet to the computer via USB stick
4. Extract the Odin and Marshmallow Firmware zip files and place it on the desktop
5. Run Odin and make sure you can see your device
6. Click on [AP] button and find the marshmallow firmware. Let Odin verify the file (take a second) then click start to begin the flashing process
7. After flashing the firmware the tablet will reboot and just wait for the welcome screen.
8. In the welcome screen skip everything till you get to the home screen then turn the tablet off and put it back into download mode (see step 1)
9. Now your tablet should still be connected to the computer and Odin should still be open.
10. In Odin go to the second tab (OPTIONS) and uncheck Auto Reboot (VERY IMPORTANT)
11. Now click on the [AP] button and find the TWRP zip file then click start to flash it
12. After the flashing process has been successful press and hold [Power] [Vol-Down] & [Home] to reboot. AS SOON AS THE SCREEN GOES BLACK LET GO OFF THE BUTTONS AND PRESS AND HOLD [POWER] [VOL-UP] and [ HOME] AT THE SAME TIME.
13. If you did it right you should be in TWRP. If not you have to repeat step 11 and 12
14. Make a NANBACKUP in TWRP and copy it to your computer
15. After that copy the PIE ROM and GAPP of your choice. (MAGISK IF YOU WANT ROOT) to the internal memory card or sd card whichever you have. I don't have an SD card so I copied it to the internal memory
16. In TWRP Wipe the System, Cache, Data and ART/Dalvik cache. (Recommended)
17. Flash the ROM, GAPPS
18. Flash the root solution of your choice (optional).
19. Reboot your device.
Thanks to @lividhen99 for the post that I got all this info
Thanks to everyone who creates and ported recoveries and ROM to this device. My grandma appreciated it ( we both hate TouchWiz)
PS. I will eventually come back and make a mirror of the marshmallow firmware file because it is so long and slow. If anyone wants to beat me to it please do
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1WyafpwMlGbBmocWhwhHxcrtgS0mFpoes
Heres a google drive mirror.
Is there a 64 bit version of Android Pie for the SM-T350? After following these instructions I couldn't install the 64 bit version of GApps, said it was not compatible. Is that a holdover from the Marshmallow firmware? The SM-T350 supposedly has an ARM 64bit processor so you'd think it could take the 64 bit GApps install but after these updates it shows that it'e the 32 bit version of Pie. I know I'm kind of rambling here but I guess you can follow what I'm trying to do. Thanks!
is this compatible with the sm-p355?
Is it necessary to do this from Marshmallow 6? Will this procedure work for Nougat 7.1.1?

It should technically work, but if you get a black screen, downgrade to marshmallow and try again. Not all devices need to be downgraded, and nobody knows why
Great, thanks for the info! This sounds like a, great summer project while we are all locked in quarantine.

Could you and ygthb send me the links for the rom's forums? in fact, you might want to ask the question on the rom's respective forum.

This is a thread on how to install roms on this device, it provides no roms besides the marshmallow one to fix the black screen issue.
Trying to get this to work, everything is fine until I try to load the new ROM and GAps, it's giving me error 7, specifically this:
- Confirming target device...
mount: Failed to mount /dev/block/by-name/vendor at /vendor: No such
file or directory
ui_print(): Failed to parse the argument(s)
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7

What partitions did you wipe?
I might be a little late posting here but I am currently trying this with the SM-T350 that came with 7.1.1 and for some reason when I load the Marshmallow firmware to my tablet it never actually boots, it gets as far as flashing the Samsung logo on a black background then says Touchwiz.exe has encountered an error. Am I doing something wrong? I am following the instructions word for word as far as I can tell.
The marshmallow firmware never has to boot. If you want it to boot, factory reset (wipe data and dalvik cache). But you wipe system data and cache anyway when you install a rom.

Basically I just want to use TWRP to flash Magisk and use it to spoof for Pokemon Go. I did it previously on a Galaxy S5 but I never had a problem booting into the OS and just turning the phone off when I wanted to boot into recovery mode (TWRP) so I don't really know what I am doing but I am assuming I need it to boot normally for magisk to root the device. Unfortantely when I try to flash TWRP with the 7.1.1 firmware that comes stock on the device recovery just boots to a black screen so searching around has led me to the conclusion I need to downgrade to Marshmallow then try flashing TWRP but I never expected it to not boot normally xD Sorry this is a bit outside of my technical knowledge to say the least.
---------- Post added at 01:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------
I believe I understand what I need to do now. I managed to load into TWRP so at that point I can just flash any rom and use magisk to root. Any particular one you might suggest? Thanks for all the help by the way!

OH! Well, now that you have that specific version of twrp booted, I would recomend either lineage os or crdroid for the SM-T350. If you just want stock Samsung, you can reflash the stock 7.1.1 firmware and grab the Nougat twrp for the sm-T355 from ashyx's galaxy tab a twrp page here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/development/recovery-t3426560 . It will boot on Nougat (7.1.1) but it cannot flash android pie (9.0) or Q (10.0) roms. It can still flash magisk though.
Crdroid (I released a newer build on the second to last page ?): https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/development/rom-galaxy-tab-8-0-t3912517/page32
Lineage: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/development/rom-t3903258/page31
If you do end up flashing a custom rom, just wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache. Then flash the ROM zip, the gapps zip, and the magisk tnstaller zip. Just remember to enable magisk hide to pass safetynet whether you go custom rom, or not.
If you want the marshmallow firmware to boot, I think just wipe cache and dalvik cache. If that doesn't work, wipe data.
Wiping data will delete all your apps and settings and passwords, etc. It is essentially a factoy reset.

the device isnt capable of running ARM64 however you can find regular ARM variants of lineageOS (what i used instead of flashing the stock firmware) and of gapps. my galaxy tab a (sm-t350) now runs android 10 and gapps 10.0 full, through this guide. just ignore the first software package and continue with the guide.
help! flashed from stock firmware (i don't remember version)...after a lot of time, is in the wizard section with a lot of error (unfortunately the process xxx has stopped), and the tablet reboot...what should i do?
Does anyone have the complete steps to flash the Android 11 GSI?

Do not flash GSI Rom But if you must, it's your decision.
Generally with GSI roms you only flash the system part. Everything else such as boot, vendor and drivers will be from a rom made for the mi8, such as an AOSP rom or a custom miui rom such as Xiaomi.EU. below are basic instruction after you already have a rom installed, have removed all passwords, and have chosen factory reset in recovery.
Follow these steps at your own risk, and be sure to make a backup first and copy it to your desktop
These are basic generalized Instructions after Formatting storage then installing a rom specifically made for the mi8. I strongly suggest that you do not Flash the new beta build, and that you instead wait for someone to build it specifically for the mi8.
The Mi8 can only use type A GSI's roms
1. Reboot Recovery
2. Perform factory reset, passwords must be removed or you will have a bootloop
3. Install GSI to system
4. Reboot to recovery, then reboot to OS > Setup > Enjoy testing it or enjoy your brick?
Once again, I would strongly suggest that you wait and not flash the new Android 11 rom. Also there is a very good chance that it will not boot to system, its early and beta builds are always super buggy at first. usually new builds are ready for non-Google devices by August.

Hey !
I have a stupid question. Do you upload the GSI ROM and the other files on a SD card or on the internal storage ? I was searching this guide on the morning but I was wondering about that...

You can place it in either of the two, as long as you can access the storage where you placed them from the recovery

In my particular case it was not necessary to flash vbmmeta as I comment in the OP I come from Miui12.eu, but it is necessary to avoid problems whatever the ROM you have before installing Havoc is to have the latest version of TWRP and have configured a lock pattern security in ROM access and in the flashing process I didn´t have problems
Hey!
I was on the stock ROM when i started to flash HavocOs.
I unbricked my phone with the MIUnlockTool V2 and my phone's still alive.
I booted on TWRP with fastboot boot TWRP.img 'cuz I can't boot to TWRP with volume up and power...
How can I flash HavocOs in the good way ?
I have Redmi 8 3/32 like you...

Ok the first thing is that you have the bootloader unlocked, if it is that way regardless of the stock version of the rom you have when installing twrp you must install magisk to ensure that the Recovery remains fixed in this link is a tutorial on how to install it, that tutorial was made by me and approved by Xiaomi https://c.mi.com/thread-2850424-1-0.html ,
install the latest version of TWRP and as it says in the tutorial then flash magisk, once you have everything ready install miui 12.eu do not do many settings except create a blocking pattern when starting the rom this is used by TWRP to be able to decrypt the internal memory
All ready do the steps as indicated in this tutorial (If you come from Miui12 .EU or any other GSI Rom go to step 4)
If for some reason you have a problem, use MI flashtool to return to the stock rom, but make sure to use the snapdragon method, select MIflash and when opening the screen at the bottom select clean all, this will prevent you from blocking the bootloader and you can start again without problems (note when selecting clean all at the end it will give you an error for not being able to block the bootloader and the device will restart, do not worry it will restart normally without problems)

Hey!
I thought about something this afternoon : if I flash HavocOS with adb and fastboot, we also haven't any problems with TWRP installation ! But the problem is that I haven't found any wiki to do that and i won't transform my phone to a beta tester....
Thanks a lot for your help but I think i will wait until a custom rom of LineageOs or HavocOs...
Hi . I am currently running havoc is 3.12 on my device I tried multiple times to flash this ROM without any success. Is not installing open gapps a problem ? Anyways when I flash this rom without flashing the certification patch I get a no os installed warning before rebooting from orange fox recovery but when I flash the certification I no longer get this message. Etherway I am getting stuck on a bootloop . How can I solve this issue? I did all the steps correctly wiping the correct partitions and formating data . Edit I wiped cache and dalvik after the bootloop without any success .

I had the same bug before installing the v3.12 version.
I think it goes from the Permissiver v5. I think we should flash it to have the Havoc v4.
I'll test later if I have the time to do this and I'll inform you about the possibilities.
Hope I can help.

Thanks for replying and trying to help but last night I managed to get havoc 4.1 is installed by flashing lineage first (using another guide from this category). I will try again to get havoc 4.1 working without flashing lineage as soon as posible because I am curious .

Finally managed to flash Magisk on Havoc 4.1 with the help of youtuberking (telegram and YouTube).
How: just flash Magisk path fix before magisk and it's good to go.
Title, because I've faced issues with ROM not booting after I flashed TWRP on the ROM, for clarity I'll demonstrate the steps I did
1. Boot to TWRP 3.6.2
2. Flash MIUI 13.0.5 Android 12, ticked flash TWRP after the ROM flashed
3. Boom, throws me back to TWRP
What's worse is that wiping options (format data, factory reset and advanced wipe) doesn't work and always fails, so I had to boot another TWRP img (specifically 3.7.0) to wipe the whole internal storage and install a ROM
The error code is this:
init fs_mgr_mount_all
Going back to the title, is it possible? Or it really was possible and just the procedure was wrong?
Use 3.7.0 by dblenk9 instead

I take it you tried this once and succeeded. Thanks for the reply, currently on EU. Might as well try that next time
