Hi and thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide, I think my phone is dead :crying:
Anyway, story time...
I woke up to the door knocking and the postman was there with a package I had to sign for. My heart jumped as I knew it was my new OP6 from ebay (refurbed and from a highly regarded refurbed phone seller).
I inserted my SIM and the symbol for signal came on so the sim slot was working. I then connected to my wifi so the wifi is working. I like to customize my phones so I immediately come to XDA to find a ROM I'd like to install and to find the instructions for unlocking the bootloader, installing TWRP and Majisk. I looked and settled on AOSiP seeing that the required OOS firmware is 10.3.0 I upgrade through the system update feature.
Having updated I go on to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and magisk. Upon unlocking the bootloader when the system rebooted it stopped reading sim cards and picking up wifi signals. Using adb I installed TWRP (using the proper method of temporarily booting into the TWRP and the installing the ZIP. Like an idiot I didn't read the instructions properly and flashed the AOSiP zip which failed.
I thought the best thing to do was start over so I flashed the official recovery boot image using adb. I ended up only able to access the bootloader/fastboot. Every option apart from turn off just caused the phone to boot into the bootloader. I fixed this using the instructions on https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665 using the 10.0-OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_040_all_1910270546_42a63-FASTBOOT.zip and I can now access the system but the setup keeps stopping and it still won't pick up sim cards or wifi and keeps rebooting.
I have tried to restore to stock using the system update feature and manually downgrade but the phone reboots before the downgrade gets chance to finish. I think this is eveything I did although maybe I pressed something i shouldn't have in TWRP.
I've heard two different things about this issue one is that android 10 is not fully working yet and that's causing the reboots and connectivity issues but I have had an OP6 before (I had to sell it
) another thing I heard was it was a hardware issue and the motherboard needs replacing. Please help, if it is a software issue then I'm screwed, I relocked the bootloader but I'm sure the seller will be able to tell and not replace of refund the item. If it's a hardware issue I can at least get my money back. If anyone can help me fix this it would be much appreciated.
