Fuck the lineage install fcked something up big time on my OnePlus 6...

No more flashing unofficial roms...

I tried flashing stock several times... still cant get past the boot screen witch the animation.

Never happened before.... cant even access storage from TWRP.... fck....

Any ideas? Even if i restore the stock image, it just keeps showing the booting screen.

    @billgates try another kernel, and flash TWRP V3 or above to access your storage (be sure to mount it fisrt!)

    @MEGADROID I sorta got it working again... but only after nuking the whole phone...

    Working if i forgot to backup any important files... had to pull them all via adb and seems some file names were too long for Windows to handle....

    @billgates ALWAYS make a NANDROID backup before flashing any ROMs ;)

    @MEGADROID I did a TWRP backup but after restoring it just went to a blank screen with a white LED. So seems like the backup failed? And this was the start of the whole problem.

    @billgates hmmm, never had this one before, did you make a full wipe (without internal storage) before restoring? Also did you get any errors after restoring on TWRP?

    @MEGADROID sorta of but at a certain point TWRP stopped decrypting Internal Storage. So at that point i was just

    FUCK... I just want this thing to boot... is it still in warranty??? (apparently its only 3 months since i bought, thought it was a year already)

    @billgates Flashing custom ROMs voids warranty

    @MEGADROID not for OnePlus? Rooting is allowed so as long as the curent ROM is stock, they wouldn't be able to tell?

    @billgates
    As per OnePlus>>>
    The technical process of rooting or unlocking the bootloader does not void the warranty of a OnePlus device. However, we strongly suggest for you to only root or unlock the bootloader of your OnePlus device if you are confident in your understanding of the risks involved.
    By accessing resources regularly unavailable to the software, you may damage your hardware during or after the procedure. Such damage is not covered under warranty. In warranty handling, we will first need to verify that any faulty behavior is unrelated to rooting / unlocking.

    Apparently rooting doesn't void the warranty, but under/over clocking your cpu voids it.

    @billgates btw, does it boot now? Or are you still stuck in a bootloop?

    @MEGADROID boots now... but lost all the apps, data and files on it. so basically Factory state....

    @billgates that sucks, did you use any cloud backup services, also if you were logged into Google you could restore your contacts/app data from there, good luck!

    @MEGADROID not really.... I use Titanium usually if I need to move phones but don't do when upgrading OS...

    Lesson learned... Always take a TI believe when upgrading the OS so it can all be restored if there whole thing fcks up...

    I don't have any oneplus devices but I would have tried partition repairs or real partition formats from TWRP
