Hello there,
This is my first XDA thread! This is an issue I ran into.

I just installed CM 14.1 on my OP3. I downloaded the latest TWRP from the official website before flashing it.

Here is the problem. After setting up my ROM, like installing all the required apps, I'm not able to boot into recovery. I tried flashing TWRP again, I downloaded the oneplus recovery from your website and I flashed that one too.

I erased recovery partition and installed both of them again (erasing each time). What happens is, after booting into the bootloader, I select recovery to go to the recovery and it stays blank, unless I reset it by holding the buttons.

Please let me know what I can do.

Same happened to me also. But somehow I fixed it by installing TWRP again by using OnrPlus 3 toolkit. Here is the toolkit forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t3398993. Can't post links. Don't forget to put http:// front of it

Thanks for the reply.

Are you sure what happened to is exactly what happened to you? Because I tried the ToolKit and it is not working. I tried both the versions of the TWRP and Stock recovery.

If you know anything else about this issue that would help me. I'd love to hear it.

Also. Does encryption affect this in anyway, because I did it. I don't want to factory reset my phone because this is my primary phone and I don't have another phone. And I don't want to risk it, at least for a few days.

Modified TWRP version should do it

Thanks LS.xD. You are awesome. I completely messed up my old Moto X and I didn't have a smartphone until now. I hesitated a lot before installing all custom stuff until I gave in. And this problem made me worry a lot.

Thanks a lot.

Same, when I flashed cm 14.1 I also got blank TWRP.
Michielokt, you should try flash the recovery LS.xD gave the link to, it booted.
