Here is what I did:
1) Enable developer mode
2) Enable "allow OEM unlock"
3) Enable USB debugging etc
4) Install PC drivers, run adb, reboot to bootloader
"adb reboot bootloader"
5) Unlock bootloader
"fastboot OEM unlock"
6) Restart, device wipes itself and runs OOBE
7) Re-enable USB debugging etc, run TWRP in RAM only
"fastboot boot [TWRP recovery image path/filename]"
(twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img)
8) Use in-RAM copy of TWRP to do nandroid backups of all partitions
Backups complete with no errors.
9) Copy twrp image to device storage
10) Use in-RAM copy of TWRP to flash TWRP image to recovery partition
11) Reboot to recovery to test TWRP install
12) Get broken robot error
13) Restart and run TWRP from RAM again
14) Attempt to restore original recovery image previously backed-up,
restore appears to complete successfully
15) Reboot to recovery
16) Broken robot again.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong??
TIA

I downloaded the latest regular one today, I didn't look at any betas. But the restore of the stock recovery didn't work either. Which is pretty disturbing, since that's precisely why I backed-up that partition before making any changes...
Is this kind of thing a known problem?
Bootloader OEM Unlock + Root:
Starting with the Android 6.0 20x bootloader it has to be unlocked, sorta like a Nexus, with fastboot. Previously only 'OEM Unlock' had to be toggled in Android Developer settings for TWRP or custom boot images to work.
1. Flash stock 20x using zip or KDZ. Boot into Android after upgrade to 20x.
2. Download the twrp-2.8.7.1-h811.img file HERE. This file needs to be on your computer and external sdcard*.
3. Download the latest SuperSu zip (2.67+) from HERE [Thanks to Chainfire] and stick on external sdcard*.
4. Confirm "OEM Unlock" is set to enabled in the hidden Developer Settings.
5. Enable "USB Debugging" in Developer Settings, connect USB cable PC <-> Phone... and send the following 3 commands in command prompt/terminal:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader (phone reboots to bootloader)
fastboot oem unlock (this wipes ALL data!!)
fastboot boot twrp-2.8.7.1-h811.img (phone boots TWRP)
6. For perm TWRP: In TWRP hit Install > Images... (bottom right corner) > select TWRP.img on ext sdcard > select "recovery" > swipe.
7. If you want root: Hit the Home button > Install > select SuperSU zip on external sdcard > swipe.
8. All done. Reboot into Android. (if TWRP asks if you want to install SU, HIT NO!!!)
*if you do not have an external sdcard to save SuperSU and the TWRP.img onto.. you will need to skip saving the files to sdcard until AFTER you fastboot OEM unlock and boot into TWRP. After fastboot booting TWRP you can use adb push to put SuperSU and TWRP.img onto the internal sdcard to install with TWRP. Or you can use the MTP mount option in TWRP and drag n' drop the files from the computer to the phone. You cannot store the files on the internal sdcard before the OEM unlock because OEM unlock wipes all you data.
remeber we have antirollback for h811. antirollback V2 is 10n lollipop and 20i MM.
then we have V3 20-o-p-q-and r. once you in wither of the V3 you can not flash a v2 20i or 10n cause youll brick your phone..
this is the procedure when you are in any 20 version

Yes, I did both of the unlock steps, they are documented in my OP. And followed all the TWRP docs you copied below with the only difference being I used the latest version of TWRP for the H811 from their website.

Yep, this is useful info as you mentioned to me in another thread. But as I responded a few mins ago there, the device is on the absolute latest build, so anything other than that one (January 2017) would be a rollback to some extent or other.

if you flashed 20r you could only downgrade to either 20o-20p-20q- yes but this all V3 including 20r so you be safe to downgrade in all this versions. remeber no 20i or lower.
So I tried to run TWRP 2.8.7.0 from RAM, thinking maybe new versions were based on Nougat or something and didn't know how to flash my device properly.
But it wouldn't launch at all with "fastboot boot twrp2.8.7.0-h811.img" command. Just froze, fastboot no longer saw the device, holding power button down didn't work, had to pull the battery.
So then I tried to just flash 3.0.2-0 the old way ("fastboot flash recovery [image-file]") but it returned a FAILED result.
[command-prompt] fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (33032 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.065s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 1.080s
Then I verified the bootloader was unlocked:
[command-prompt] fastboot getvar unlocked
unlocked: yes
finished. total time: -0.000s
Hmm.
It worked by using the in-RAM copy of TWRP to flash, but instead of having the IMG file in the folder I had it in previously (under /download/install) I put it in the root folder and it seemed to like that better.
After failing some 1-click rooting methods, for the first time I tried to do it the hard way.
That turned out to be a pretty easy way thanks to some handy links to drivers and other files I found.
Infinity thanks to the thread I found platform-tools from and the website called "getdroidtips" for the Custom TWRP for the HS2.

Did you try "flashboot boot twrp..." like in my guide or "flashboot flash twrp..."?
And which twrp image did you use?
In any case, if you can still get to the fastboot screen, try booting with the twrp image in Step 4 above (download links in the pastebin link)

Hi, "flashboot boot twrp" wasnt working at all, so i tried "flashboot flash twrp" and all i have is a bootloop. So after flashing recoveru i booted my phone to fastboot and run the command, " flashboot boot recovery recovery.img" where recovery is the custom recovery image and it booted into recovery. Then there is one more step to do that allowed me to finally boot into my os. Its working fine and i still have twrp installed on my phone

Piece of advice :
If there comes any problem with this unlock process, NEVER try to unlock by official unlock tool, as you will not be able to install custom recovery and finally end up in an unlocked bootloader device with no warranty and no custom recovery to proceed further!!!
in such cases fix the communication between phone and pc, instead of directly jumping to official tool
Wow..
Anyone try this??
what is the firmware version that is being used in this Indian root image? mine start with ww_xxxxx.....

Got it working the problem is with adb it was installed and then I reinstalled it as given in steps, which might have broken the adb so if I performed the steps in ubuntu and everything worked perfectly. I am attaching the error images. If anyone else getting issue try uninstalling adb and drivers and then reinstalling adb and drivers.

I have written this comprehensive step by step guide on how to flash CRDROID android 12 ROM for the OnePlus 8 Pro. The original instructions do not cover enough detail.
Ensure you have all applicable drivers installed onto your computer by following this video tutorial:
Reset your phone through using this MSM tool to return to Oxygen OS 11: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4084953/
Install the application to your windows device
Choose the international version
Turn off the phone. Hold BOTH the VOLUME UP AND DOWN at the same time and plug into the computer. The application will now recognise the phone where you can do a factory reset to Oxygen OS 11.
Install Oxygen OS11 on BOTH Slots:
install the latest Oxygen OS 11 from the OnePlus website, as a local upgrade: https://www.oneplus.com/uk/support/softwareupgrade/details?code=PM1587123976
If the official link goes down, find the file from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/oneplus-8-pro-rom-ota-oxygen-os-repo-of-oxygen-os-builds.4084315/
Restore to oos 11 using msm -> unlock bootloader -> download latest oos 11 -> transfer to phone -> then system update via local upgrade -> reboot and update via local upgrade + reboot again
Connect to the internet
Click multiple times on the build number after updating to enable developer options
Enable options of OEM unlocking and USB debugging
Once you press usb debugging, connect your device to your pc -> a window will pop up on your device -> press always allow from device. You need to do this for usb debugging to work.
Enter fastboot mode by pressing and holding the Power button to bring up the Power menu and select 'Power Off'. Once you have done that: Press and hold the Volume Up', 'Volume Down', and 'Power' keys together to enter Fastboot Mode.
Unlock the OEM:
Once you're in fastboot mode after pressing oem unlock + usb debugging toggles -> type 'fastboot oem unlock' -> press volume up + power for yes and the device will reboot.
To install the RECOVERY
Download the file named like this: crDroidAndroid-12.0-XXXXXXXX-instantnoodlep-v8.X.zip and recovery from the officaial website:
https://crdroid.net/instantnoodlep/8
put it in the same folder where your adb files are
Open CMD from the adb tools folder on your computer, and type 'fastboot devices'.
if working properly, you will see your device
Type 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'
Reboot to recovery
To install custom ROM from recovery
choose "Factory reset"
choose "Apply update"
adb sideload "crDroidAndroid-12.0-XXXXXXXX-instantnoodlep-v8.X.zip"
reboot recovery
choose "Apply update"
Install the correct GAPPS
You're supposed to use nikgapps-SL basic and Nikgapps-SL addons (if needed to restore from playstore backup. Use pixel wizard setup for this.) Good examples of addons you should use will be attached.
For Nikagpps-SL: https://sourceforge.net/projects/nikgapps/files/Releases/NikGapps-SL/09-Jul-2022/ and for Nikagpps-SL addons: https://sourceforge.net/projects/nikgapps/files/Releases/Addons-SL/09-Jul-2022/
adb sideload "gapps"
choose "Apply update"
adb sideload addons
Do the "Apply Update" and sideload each addon
choose "Apply update"
To root the phone:
adb sideload magisk.zip (Change magisk.apk to magisk.zip)
reboot to system
Please comment below if this has helped!
Thank you. By carefully following your guide I was able to unbrick my 8 pro and finally install a non-oxygenos android 12 build. Other guides did not work for me.
I don't see where recovery.img is on crdroid website?
This guide helped me get crdroid running, however I'm having severe issues getting ANY google apps to run. I sideloaded the ones you recommended, but play store wasn't installed, play services wasn't installed. After I downlaoded those apks it did nothing and they dont work. My biggest problem is I can't link my google account to my phone in the settings, I don't see 'Accounts' anywhere in the settings; Which has all my contacts. So at first I thought it was a success, now my phone is literally useless to me until I get my account linked to my phone which seems impossible with crdroid.
How can we do this with TWRP install? If not, why not? Why do all the instructions I see for crDroid use ADB sideload instead of just 'install zip' like every other custom ROM? Also, how do we install Magisk? The usual way via TWRP?

Boot back into Fastboot Mode and try again and click on flash-all.bat once more. If it fails on second Flash you need to update your Bootloader driver!!

12After installing OxygenOS 11.0.9.1 make sure to boot into Recovery Mode and perform a Hard Reset!
Power off your device. Press and hold volume down + Power button. (The device will boot into recovery mode).
Select language. Select Wipe data and cache > Erase Everything (Music, pics, etc) > Tap on "This can not be undone, continue?". Now Reboot system from "Reboot" option."
13I recommend locking your bootloader once completed with the guide, unless you plan on rooting or installing custom roms.
Plug your phone into the PC, Turn USB Debugging on then Boot into fastboot mode.
Open a cmd command prompt in platform tools root folder.
Type fastboot flashing lock hit enter.

The Benefits of Global/International Firmware Conversion
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Completely removes T-Mobile Apps and any underlying Software (there aren't a lot, but why not completely gone!)
Use Dual Sim supported by the hardware & the ability to use other carriers.
Get on the faster firmware release schedule of stock Global firmware because it doesn't need to be certified by T-Mobile, which are always generations behinds.
You can now Root your OnePlus 7T & install Magisk & use Magisk Modules.
You can OEM unlock your Bootloader & put TWRP & install Custom Roms if you like.
Conversation will NOT change your Model Number it will remain a "HD1907"
Maybe a noob question, but would there be any downsides to this, such as loosing access to certain radio frequencies?

I used metro PCS after conversion & I never lose connection neither does my wifi which is Comcast.
@Birdflyer Did you try to convert over to global yet?
Hello, I am having a lot of trouble with the MSM tool. I can get the phone into edl mode and start the msm tool, but it quickly disconnects the phone ("status of connection" shows "N/A") and the status of communication is "setting firehose communication data transmission ". On the device manager it shows the phone as unknown USB device (device descriptor request failed). Could this be because my phone is on android 12 or is it a problem with the PC? Luckily, this seems to result in nothing happening to the phone, and after plugging it into the charger I can reboot normally

Ok I had tried that before but just in case I tried it again by uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, and then I also installed usb drivers through windows update and that seemed to have done it ! Thanks for your help!

Yes thank you I got it fixed, I think the bootloader driver wasn't installed correctly so I reinstalled that, and I updated usb drivers through the windows update (these were just the drivers for my PC, not related to the drivers I needed to install to convert the phone). It had some trouble at first connecting to my PC in fastboot but I got it working eventually and now the phone has been converted!

That's means you didn't completely convert over! Power the Phone OFF then boot into Fastboot Mode by pressing vol up & vol down plus power at the same time. Then go to Platform Tools folder on your PC & click on flash-all.bat again it should boot your phone into Recovery Mode on the second flash all! Then it will boot your phone into Global Firmware finally & your wifi will be restored.
@Ramover3 You need to re-read over steps 8-12 very important. That's where you messed up.
@Ramover3 Take your time & read over if you still have issues report back thanks.
@Ramover3 Did you get it fixed?
