3.2.6 OTA failed to install? "SOLVED" - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hi.
- I flashed TWRP using ADP, flashed root to change fonts but used Stock OOS 3.2.4
Now i sold device.=, to buy black one or iPhone
- I done data reset in TWRP to unroot, after reboot SU App was gone.
- I flashed stock recovery via ADB
- I left the bootloader unlocked, i was not sure of comand, plus in case of mess up, i could fix it.
New user has no idea as well, he says now when he installs OTA 3.2.6 it fails to install.
What i am missing? how can i fix this?
Help will be much appreciated, thanks in advance.
EDIT: SOLVED
When i locked bootloader, it took me to bootloap, and when i try to sideload new OOS3.2.4 it gave ever, cannot read file.
- I flashed new official TWRP again.
- I flashed stock 3.2.4 with TWRP
- Set up OS
- Flashed stock recovery, in fastboot by doing USB debugging on
- Locked bootloader by "fastboot bootloader oem lock" right after stock recovery
- Set up OS 3.2.4 again, at this moment 3.2.6 fail to down over the air
- I downloaded stock 3.2.6 incremental update, successfully downloaded and install.
Now phone seem to be at stock. I bought it back from to save him from inconvenience, as he was scared as the phone was failing to install update initially.

Also interested on this, same thing happened with me and a friend, modded his phone, he didnt want it modded anymore, flashed a clean stock OOS, flashed stock recovery, and error on install of 3.2.6 OTA, if anyone have any idea how to recover the ability to OTA, appreciated.

What happens if you try to sideload it

When i sideload oos.zip which is 3.2.4, it says cannot read zip.
When i relock bootlaoder, it goes into bootloap, i go back to fastboot and unlock bootloader, it boots back into old stock OOS 3.2.4. This rom still has my changed fonts, which i had when i had root and TWRP.

I know there was a firmware change with 3.2.6, so if you flashed the 3.2.6 recovery with OOs 3.2.4, this could possibly be your issue.
Boot into Twrp, don't need to flash it. Clean flash 3.2.6, reboot. Try relocking bootloader see if you still get boot loops.

Failed OTA update for Oxygen OS 3.2.1 on OnePlus 3

Hi all, I have just recently purchased a new OnePlus 3 from one of the distributors listed under OnePlus's website. I've been waiting for the 3.2.1 OTA update for a while and its finally in my region. However after it finishes downloading and I press install, the phone reboots and after a while it would appear a screen which says "Installation Failed" with nothing else but a Reboot button. Can anyone shed any light on this potential problem or is it isolated to just my device? Is it possible for me to completely reinstall OxygenOS on the phone again? (wipe the phone and reinstall android + oxygen's). Also when I bought the device and first booted it, I noticed that there was some apps already installed( apart from stock google ones). These looked like malware to me and it doesn't allow me to uninstall them(from app drawer or from settings), is there anyway i can uninstall them as well?
Thanks in advance
I see no one replied to this topic, sadly. I am experiencing exact the same issue. Currenty I am on OxygenOS 3.1.3. When I go to system updates it says OxygenOS 3.2.6 is ready to download. I hit download, it downloads, reboots but then it says the update failed and I can only reboot.
Anyone knows a solution? Would be nice if I could update my phone
if your bootloader is locked and you dont want to unlock it, then you can download the full rom from oneplus's official website and sideload through command prompt. instructions are available there on their website.
If your bootloader is unlocked and you have latest twrp, just use the below link to download the full rom and flash it via twrp.
if you want to do a clean install with twrp go to wipe the select everything and wipe. this will delete everything on your phone including the os. remain in twrp and connect your phone to your pc and copy paste the rom in twrp folder in your phone and flash it.

My oneplus 3, 3.2.8 ota will not update and fails. Device was rooted but is now unrooted w/ stock 3.2.7 w/ twrp recovery. I also flashed back stock recovery and still the ota fails to install. Any idea how to fix this or why it is happening? Bootloader is unlocked as well.

[HELP GUIDE] - Can't flash TWRP on Oxygen OS 3.2.1

Today I have faced a strange situation, I installed TWRP (after unlocking the bootloader) on my OP3 as soon as I received the device then I flashed custom ROM by @Grarak http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-t3399089.
After using for some days I decided to give Oxygen OS another try, so I wiped the cache,data,system and Flashed full OTA provided by @namanbhalla https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...ficial-oxygen-os-roms-and-ota-updates.450783/
Every thing went smooth but after starting up I wasn't able to goto twrp, for some strange reason twrp was automatically replaced with stock recovery. OK, I decided to reflash twrp, but bang! after so many flashing I wasn't able to boot into twrp, still there was stock recovery.
Solution:
1) fastboot oem unlock (re run even if it says already unlocked)
2) fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3.img
now TWRP is installed.
I not Android Developer and cant guarantee above will work and wont harm your device. Try at your own risk.
that is all not needed, i have had this happen to me multiple times reflashing Stock and Stock recovery replaces TWRP, all u have to do is boot up to fastboot mode and flash TWRP, do not reboot, use Power + Vol + and when the Unlocked bootloader screen comes up press the VOL key and click recovery and TWRP is back. no need to do the unlock bootloader again, unless u unchecked it, just make sure it is checked when flashing the Stock rom again or u can just use flashify if u rooted stock before the recovery got replaced somehow, i have even had this happen on FreedomOS 3.2.1

Update oxygen 3.2.6 removed my root. Please help. Also just joined xda.

My oneplus 3 was rooted (oxygen 3.2.5 maybe) but I installed the update 3.2.6 today from phone by going into settings. When the phone got updated my root does not work anymore. Please help.
I forgot how I rooted my phone before but it was still on android 6 when I rooted.
When I reboot I still get the black screen saying the device can't be trusted because xxxxxxxxxx Is unlocked, dont remember what.
Usb debugging is on as well as oem unlocked ( these options are still showing unlocked when i went to settings but don't know if they are ACTUALLY unlocked.
Xposed luck patcher, etc not working
Root checker says root not installed properly
Used twrp before.
Also is there any way that I can re-root my phone again without data loss?
Its my first post ever in any form so dont know about posting much.
You can mail me too at [email protected].
Thanks
Try flashing Super su manually from Recovery
Flash latest SuperSU (I think it is 2.78) in twrp. Flash xposed module in twrp too
If you did the official update from Settings > System Updates, then you are most likely back to stock recovery as well. You're going to have to re flash twrp before you can flash root and xposed. You will not lose data by performing any of these steps as your bootloader is still unlocked.

Download twrp
Boot to fastboot
fastboot boot sometwrp.img
Flash supersu from temporary twrp

If you had root and custom recovery (TWRP) then you couldn't have updated by this method as it wouldn't have worked. You need to reflash SuperSU in TWRP as others have stated.
Much simple: from recovery (hope you're having TWRP installed) flash latest SuperSU and Xposed zip file.
Then Wipe Cache/Dalvik, then reboot in System.
If you won't to lose root, you should consider a custom rom like FreedomOS, that provides SuperSU binary by itself (even Xposed, if I'm not wrong).

You should never install an update through the phone's update setting while using a custom recovery. The updates are designed to work with the stock recovery only.
If you can still boot into and use TWRP, use it to flash the full ROM of OOS 4.0.3.
If you can't boot into TWRP, try to see if fastboot works and manually sideload a working ROM in.
Otherwise, you're going to have to use the unbrick guide. Your phone doesn't have to be completely bricked to use it. It simply reverts the phone to a truly factory-fresh state (relocks bootloader, wipes everything, etc. - At least method 2 does anyways).
I got stuck in the same situation some time ago, and in order to solve it I had to flash the stock recovery, let it restart, it tried to update (and failed) and then it booted to system again. Hopefully that way you can avoid installing everything again. Once the device boots you can try to update with the stock recovery and revert to twrp if you want.

Pixel C OTA using Flashfire - stuck on "waiting for fastboot command"

I have a Pixel C, rooted using the Nexus Rootkit, TWRP and SuperSU.
All was fine and was on build N2G48C.
I had an OTA notification for Oreo, so I downloaded the OPR6.170623.010 Oreo OTA file, and used FlashFire to apply this.
Now everytime it reboots it goes past the Google logo, then to the "waiting for fastboot command" screen. I've tried rebooting to Recovery and I get the same thing!
Google didn't seem to help, so please can anyone else help?
I was manually flashing rather then using flashfire, but I was getting the same problem. First, flash just the stock room (no root or TWRP) and check that it boots. Mine would, but every time I tried to flash TWRP, it would bootloop to fastboot.
You may want to download the full rom, not just the ota. You can modify the flash batch file to not wipe the tablet, or just flash the components.
What was finally successful for me was to flash TWRP and NOT let it finalize. It should ask if you want to mount R/W so it can keep the rom from overwriting the recovery. I told it no, then flashed the Magisk zip for root. I haven't tested SuperSU, but just replace it here to try. This got me a proper boot to Oreo, with Magisk working correctly.
If I understand it right, and I haven't booted to recovery to check, the rom will likely have overwritten TWRP. Worst case, I have to reflash recovery whenever I want to do a backup or update my rom, but that isn't something I do often on this tablet.
