Hi guys
I just changed my color of everything in recovery mode. My phone has been trying to start up for 40 minutes! I don't know what to do. Can I remove the battery and try to turn it on again? I just want it to startup.
Thanks
i guess you are stuck in a bootloop. you should have made a backup, did you?
I'm not really sure what a backup is? I have titanium, and clockwork I believe on my phone. I have changed the os a few times. Please explain to me what a backup is
Backup (Nandroid) is a part of clockworkmod recovery.
usually before you flash anything that changes the system files, you should make a backup (takes less than 5 minutes). just in case something goes wrong with the file you flashed, so you can revert back to how the phone was before the backup.
are you stuck at the splash screen or bootanimation?
I just removed the battery, and I put it back in and it's doing it again... I hope it starts up.
You are the fifth person I saw having this problem today. Something is not right here...
I am guessing chrome beta is causing this. I didn't get a chance to do factory restore yet as I want to backup my data files first when I get home.
But someone said data wipe and factory restore do not help...

I am on stock rom without root. There wasn't any issue before and installing chrome was the only thing I did yesterday.
By changing the color what do you mean? Flashed a theme?

which process did you use to root your phone?
So basically something from that theme didn't install correctly and is not allowing your phone to boot.
When making any changes to anything it is always wise to make a nandroid backup. If you made a nandroid you could restore that and you would be fine.
Since you didn't you have 2 options.
Option 1) Flash the current rom you were running with just a dalvik cache wipe and hope that it boots back up. If it does not you will have to do option 2.
Option 2) Wipe both data and cache and then flash a rom. You will lose all of your data but, you will then have a working phone.
I installed the chrome earlier today, a few hours later i got stuck in reboot loop. I use adb pull to get a copy of important data.
factory reset doesnt work. when i try to flash an earlier image of my phone, it fails at restoring 'data'
Hi, I'm a noob at messing with rooting or ROMs, I have a T-Mobile HTC One M8 that I rooted, it worked fine until 2 weeks later it started rebooting every few seconds, I went into TWRP Recovery and wiped the Dalvik Cache and the regular Cache, it worked fine for a few days then started rebooting every minute or so so I attempted to wipe both the Dalvick Cache and the regular Cache again thinking it would solve the problem once more. I went into Advanced Wipe and wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, Internal Storage and System...it was a noob mistake thinking that I just did a Factory Wipe. I'm not sure why I did that, but afterwards, I lost the OS to my phone because of it.
These are the Problems:
I have S-On
I didn't do a Backup of anything
I don't know how to find the CID (if needed to fix it)
I don't know how to fix the phone
I've attached a picture of what my bootloader shows for its information. Please can someone help me fix my mistake...I really want to learn how to fix this. Can someone please instruct me how to get my OS back? I want to be able to use this phone again.

Download a custom rom and adb push it to your internal storage and then flash it from recovery.
Same problem

Honestly there's a lot of people with no os on bootloader screen.
My os dissapears after unlock recovery s-off and custom Rom.
If your phone is tripping I would just relock and flash ruu in bootloader mode.
First I would verify its not a driver issue and make sure usb debugging is on. If u are on a custom Rom go to there superuser settings and make sure it's set to apps and adb. Then try again.

boot to recovery, sideload a rom. if use adb is to hard for you then download the toolkit and use that to sideload a rom.
I'm no genius on this stuff, but if I were you I'd throw a ROM on the external SD and wipe everything and flash it.
I'm curious why you were having problems in the first place...your phone shouldn't have been having problems like that. It sort of sounds like a kernel problem. Regardless, I wouldn't necessarily flash whatever ROM you were having problems with. If I were you, I'd grab one that tons of other people who are on your carrier are using. Definitely don't flash one that is newer--get something from a well established dev/group.
As long as you can get to TWRP or whatever custom recovery you have, you should be able to wipe & flash without having to use ADB. Not that using ADB is bad, but if you're new, it can be confusing. Let us know how it works out.
can you help?
i dont even have recovery on mine anymore.So, how can i even flash a new rom?

you might be able to get the phone in the boot-loader (power and volume key down key) and then via fastboot flash the twrp recovery and then push a backup to the phone and restore.

Use the toolkit available in the general? section and flash the 4.4.4 RUU. Should return you to complete stock.

After 7.0 update my alarm is not ringing and if I go in the settings to change the alarm sound the app fc, also the YouTube app says "something went wrong" when trying to play a video.
After restart the sound is back for some time, then bug repeats.
I activated touch sound so I get a warning when I need to reboot, but the touch sound is not affected, also the music app is working, but no alarm or notification.
Whipped cash, installed Oos 4.0.3 via recovery (stock, locked bl, no root)
Currently on 7.1.1 Oos 4.1.3
Someone please help
Starting to think that I will have to sent the phone back to OnePlus...
get the full 4.1.3 zip, and on stock recovery wipe everything not just cache...
then back to the main menu on recovery and select install via USB (or something liket hat) and sideload the full rom from computer , after sideload boot to system and for good measures do a factory reset.

Thanks for the reply ! - I will try your suggestion tomorrow if I get the time -
Maybe it's a stupid question but: is there ever a need to wipe internal storage? or wipe everything means just system data ?
plus: could the encryption mess things around ?

Encryption may cause issues, but I don't think your problem is related to that, something in the update process went wrong I think so you got something corrupted on the either the system.or data partition , so Everytime you install a new ROM it does but the issue stays, the only way to know for sure is a clean install, and the easiest way to that is what I told you, it can also be done by fastboot where you wipe everything with fastboot then sideload , but to be safe better stick with the recovery method... I don't thing internal storage could cause an issue, but I personally from 7.0 to 7.1.1 I did wipe it , better safe than sorry, and it elemenates any possibilities so if you can do that it's better

New OTA Out, should solve this, it seems
Hey guys,
I really need help. I was about to update my brother op3 from 3.2.4 to 3.2.8. When I was done I wanted to continue to flash to 4.0 but when I use the advanced reboot to boot into recovery it suddenly said "factory reset"!!!! Everything is gone even from the storage! I cant even backup from the backup file from twrp because it is gone! Can anyone please help me out? There are software to recovery this but I have to pay for all of them and they are not cheap!
Thank you in advance!
After a factory reset, even paid recovery tools aren't able to fully restore your data to their original state. At best, you'll get back a majority of the individual files you had on your phone prior to the wipe. The more you use the phone after wiping it, the more the old data is overwritten. At this point, I would just make the best out of this unfortunate event and clean flash whatever OS you were trying to update to. At least the phone will be de-cluttered at this point. You may even notice that the phone feels a little faster afterwards, and may even improve your battery life slightly.
If you had something really important on your phone that wasn't backed up, data recovery tools may be able to restore it, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Additionally, TWRP backups do not backup media files such as music, photos, personal documents, etc. Even if you were able to find a nandroid backup, you would only get back your OS, apps, and app data. Most of this can be restored by just downloading everything again.
In the future, I would recommend saving nandroid backups directly to a USB flash drive through USB OTG. Music and photos can also be backed up to the cloud through various free or paid services (Google Photos for example).

Chance to recover your files are verry slim. Use the TWRP provided by Bluspark, it's on his main thread, stock twrp seems to have many issues.
Hi,
I flashed TWRP on my unlocked Redmi Note 8T with MIUI Global 12.5.5. Everything was great until I rebooted it and saw Bluetooth error which pops every time I try to turn Bluetooth on or just randomly during usage of the device. I also tried to re-flas TWRP with Orange fox but it unfortunatelly did not help. Now I have no idea what to do but there are also some other people with this problem (for example:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/y9zsak
).
Does anybody know any solution? Thanks!
Btw Orange fox is for ginko devices, I did not find version for willow
I had the exact same problem when I tried to root my stock rom in ginkgo. I was getting a lot of "app keeps stopping" pop ups, and that also included bt. My bt was completely broken until I changed rom. Also I'm guessing this had happened when I had rooted my phone with magisk, not by flashing recovery itself. Perhaps you could try to uninstall magsik, and see it it resolves the issue for you. If that would be the case, then you would have found your problem, and maybe you can flash a custom rom to safely root your phone.
Thanks for reply, but i did not have magisk flashed on my phone. I only had installed the app, prepared apk file and did nothing in TWRP (Orange fox) , just flashed a recovery with my PC, checked that it is working and rebooted device. Anyway I tried to do it only because of acces to NFC and Gpay which is now blocked.
As you also said, I would like to try custom rom (like LineageOS) because it seems like bad idea to have a stock room on an unlocked phone. Only the problem is how to backup data like data from apps, games etc.
So now it tried one of my ideas, which was to install Magisk (root) and uninstall it but it also did not help (I expected that)

To backup data simply copy your personal files in pc or sdcard. And to backup data in apps, take back-up of only those apps and where you need to backup. Don't take a complete backup using some app. That consumes a lot of space and make the newly rom feel "not so new". Most apps don't require you to take back-up offline these days. I usually backup only my personal files before flashing rom.
Yeah, that's true. But don't you know how to backup data from these "offline" apps? I was trying to solve this also before unpocking bootloader like a year ago but unsuccessfuly.
Also, which rom should I choose? I'm deciding between LineageOS and Pixel experience.
So I have LOS installed but I can´t install other zip files (like Google apps). Im only getting error: signature verification failed while. Im using LOS recovery so where is the problem?
Solved it!
Hey @vasik006 ! I know this is very late and you might have found the solution yourself, but I found the solution to this problem. Since yesterday I was trying to root my ginkgo with twrp, using magisk delta and had exact same issue. Joyose and bluetooth keeps stopping, and don't work. Simply factory reset ( I also formatted data) in twrp, and in next boot bluetooth should work. Then you can simply install the magisk apk and let it do its thing. No need to flash again since it has already made changes to boot file that can't be overriden by resetting phone.
Thanks, this might help someone else with this problem. I have already formatted my phone, installed Lineage OS and everything is ok
For me, the problem with BT and Joyose occurs only with TWRP v3.7.x. I went back to TWRP v3.6.1_9-0 but now backups are not working.

TWRP is invaluable for backing up the system before making changes like theming etc. and I can take a TWRP backup to any of my (all the same) devices and restore the whole thing in just a few minutes. So convenient! I really couldn't imagine life without TWRP. TWRP enables me to clone my device in case of hardware failure. All my settings and all my apps and all my custom configurations which would otherwise take hours/days to setup - BAM! Presto! on the new device and running perfectly.
TWRP + NeoBackup are essential. TWRP as described, and NeoBackup to roll back breaking updates to apps when devs butcher them, break them, and/or just remove really useful features. I also disconnect apps that get ruined by an update from the Play Store so they don't keep coming up when I check for updates.

I would advise you to read the posts again. They were asking about how to take backup of "personal apps" which twrp can't do, and if they are changing ROM then twrp backup won't be of any use to them. Therefore, whatever you're trying to tell here doesn't really help the discussion.

TWRP does backup personal apps and their settings. Once you restore a TWRP backup, you have everything back except media files - images, videos, documents, etc. The launcher icons, the apps, the system settings - everything is a perfect clone which you can restore on a new device (same model, of course).
I actually came across this thread searching to see if others had a problem where merely flashing TWRP caused Bluetooth to crash (and Atmos).
Use OrangeFox
is there anyone use BT-fix-for-PE-20190618.zip to fix this problem ?
I'm on an ROG Phone II with the same issue.
The "fix" is to wipe in TWRP and install Magisk BEFORE you leave for your first boot and NEVER come back to TWRP as the issue will return the second recovery is booted.

From what I can tell, this is correct. 3.6_XX-X allows me to come and go from TWRP as much as I please without incurring the bug, however, I haven't tested backup though I can't see a reason why they wouldn't work.
Are these existing backups that aren't working or the whole backup function in general?

It seems to be a twrp issue. What version do you have? And what version of magisk do you have?
I have recently flashed miui 12 (android 10) after bricking the phone using qtel. I noticed the Bluetooth problem last week and didn't find a fix. I have twrp 3.6.2 and magisk 25.1. I had twrp 3.7.1 but if failed to decrypt data using pattern so I rolled back to 3.6.2. And I thought that magisk had to do with the Bluetooth problem so I rolled back to 25.1 from 26.
I still can't use the Bluetooth, and I don't have time to reset the phone, I just finished restoring everything
I CAN CONFIRM
go back to the previous twrp 3.6.2 version + wipe factory reset or simply format data solve sucesfuly solve installation issue of Magisk 26.1 or Magisk Delta 25210

I can't afford resetting my phone right now , don't have enough time. I'll let it like that for some months.
Edit : I have miui 12.0.6 installed (android 10) and I'm not planning to upgrade since I have much better battery life (even better than every mod I tried). I wander if I flash miui rom from recovery can fix it?
Edit 2: flashing the rom from recovery didn't fix it
