You do a amazing job with orange fox for our 8t don't understand how they don't give you official status can't wait for a erofs oos13 based so I don't have to have my PC shoved up my a## to flash things 😂.
Yeah thanks a lot.
There are quite a few things which I need to go through to mest all the needed requirements to get official Maintainership for a Device and I rönt feel ready right now for that.
There are quite a few things i would need to change for that al well.
So I will Walt with that.

Hello!

Here we have a new Firmware Flasher for Oneplus 8t and 9r which will automatically detect the correct RAM type etc.

Enjoy! :)

21-Jan-2023 v1.0
- Initial Version of the updated flashable Firmware script for Oneplus 8 series and 9r
- OOS13 Firmware files are using abl.img from OOS13 F10 to remove the yellow bootloader message
- Flasher should support Firmware flashing from all OOS12 and OOS13 Versions (OOS11 is not supported now!)
- added automatic DDR RAM type detection (Oneplus 8t/9r)
- Flasher will terminate if it can not detect the correct RAM type for some reason

New Updated Version

Changelog

R12.1 V14 15-Jan-2023
My device is 8T (KB2001). I am currently on stock OOS 13 (F.13 India variant). I would like to cross flash it to EU OOS 13 (F.15).

When I do a local update, I get the "Verification failed" message when I tried to update to F.15 EU ROM.

So, I was wondering if I temporarily boot to your OrangeFox recovery, will I be able to flash F.15 ROM?

Code:
fastboot boot OrangeFox-R12.1-Unofficial-OPKONA-OOS13-V14.img

adb sideload F.15_EU.zip

adb reboot recovery

adb sideload Magisk.zip

adb reboot

Would the above work? Thank you in advance.

Yes exactly. That should work.

Yes, that's what I thought so.

In any case, I am sideloading the ROM now and it's stuck at 47% amd the recovery screen is not finishing it. It's been at this stage for the past 5 minutes or so. What to do? Cancel it or let it continue for some more time?
47% = done! It should show step 2/2 on your phone then. Then it is done and installed

Yes, it shows step 2/2 but ADB Sideload doesn't complete as there is an X button at the top left corner. Click the X button at the top left to exit out of this screen?

EDIT: Even flashing the ROM.zip is NOT completing as it's stuck at Step 2/2. Same issue as sideload. The process does not complete and only way I can get out this screen is to click on the X button at the top left corner. Does the new version work flashing F.15 (OOS 13) ROMs?

Orangefox R12.1 V15 beta

Changelog

R12.1 V15 beta 31-Jan-2023
- Updated my build system which seems to have fixed some bugs in Orangefox now
(old log zip file cleaning, disable reflash current Orangefox, etc) all that should work now
- Synced with latest fox_12.1 changes
- Removed flag for TW_USE_FSCRYPT_POLICY as Orangefox should detect that automatically now

Right now I only build the OOS13 Version of it.
Will update with the other ones later if this build is more tested.
Also it will be updated then for the final release with another Kernel which should then fix the USB OTG and fastbootd issues on the OOS13 based Version!

    hi

    I updated firmware to OOS14, and the current version of recovery won't work. Does anyone know of an OOS14.x based recovery?

    I am able to boot to the OOS14 recovery image but all the custom recoveries I have tried so far have not worked, all of them seem to be 13.x based.

    I need to get into fastbootd mode somehow to complete the partially finished flashing process, OR somehow rollback to 13.1 firmware so this recovery would work. No idea how to do that.

    G

    I've been able to use TWRP on stock OOS 13.1 and 14 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...in-recovery-project-8t-9r-2022-07-27.4473983/).
    But on Los 21 (Android 14 on OOS 13.1 firmware) I have to use Orange Fox V29.

    So it seems to me that the recovery depends more on the ROM installed than the firmware.

    Update 240425: While TWRP worked on the OOS 14 open beta, it doesn't work on stock OOS 14 (and neither does Orange Fox).

    Boot it with: fastboot boot OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V29.img
    or flash it with: fastboot flash recovery_a OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V29.img
    fastboot flash recovery_b OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V29.img


    The OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V28.zip can be flashed or sideloaded in recovery to install the Fox addons like Magisk etc.


    If the touchscreen is not working for you after booting/flashing Orangefox please make sure that the booted Orangefox is on the same OOS base as your phone is on!


    Note: fastbootd is not working on the OOS13 based Orangefox!!
    For StockOOS13.1 please use Orangefox R12.1
    V20 !

    Take a look at
    this Post from TWRP in regards of Backup and Restore or
    here from the Orangefox wiki.


    Keep in mind! Never flash a recovery file if you are not on the same OOS Firmware as the recovery is for, otherwise you will end up in Qualcomm Crashdump mode or just a black screen.
    Always just do a fastboot boot recovery.img until you are on the same OOS Firmware on your phone as the recovery is for, only then you can flash it with fastboot flash recovery as well!

    Firmware Flasher Download

    ROM Flashing instructions:
    (take a look at the Spoiler above if you need to switch OOS Firmware Base for your ROM)
    From OOS to custom ROM

    - Boot to Orangefox
    - Format data
    - Switch slot
    - Reboot to recovery
    - sideload/flash ROM
    - sideload/flash Orangefox.zip
    - reboot to recovery
    - Flash Magisk (Magisk can be installed through Fox addons - Install Magisk as well)
    - Reboot to system

    From custom to custom ROM

    - Boot to Orangefox
    - Format Data
    - sideload/flash ROM
    - sideload/flash Orangefox.zip
    - Reboot to recovery
    - Flash Magisk (Magisk can be installed through Fox addons - Install Magisk as well)
    - Reboot to system

    For Updating a custom ROM

    - Boot to Orangefox
    - sideload/flash ROM
    - sideload/flash Orangefox.zip
    - Reboot to recovery
    - Flash Magisk (Magisk can be installed through Fox addons - Install Magisk as well)
    - Reboot to system

    The Messages failed to mount system, vendor after flashing a ROM can be ignored.
    That is due to mounting those for both ext4 and EROFS and of course you can have only one of them.
    If you get a Bootloop after flashing a ROM and having done a Format Data do the below:

    Boot to bootloader and:
    - fastboot devices
    - fastboot -w
    - fastboot reboot

    Hi!

    I uploaded a new Version with the latest OrangeFox R11.1 changes

    R11.1 V9 01-June-2022
    - Synced with latest OrangeFox R11.1 changes

    FYI

    I see that the Orangefox Team is still working on the new Version R12.1 which will support Android 12 but that Version is not ready to build it yet as it still seems to have many bugs and issues.
    As soon they fully release it I will build it for our Oneplus 8t.

    Stay tuned!

    Good news. 😊

    Orangefox R12.1 got released now.
    During the next week I can try to build it for the Oneplus 8t.

    Hi all!

    I have updated the OP now with a Spoiler and flashing Instructions when switching from OOS11 Base Firmware to OOS12 Base Firmware or from OOS12 Base Firmware to OOS11 Base Firmware and download links for both Oneplus 8t and Oneplus 9r :)

    Keep in mind! Never flash a recovery file if you are not on the same OOS Firmware as the recovery is for, otherwise you will end up in Qualcomm Crashdump mode or just a black screen.
    Always just do a fastboot boot recovery.img until you are on the same OOS Firmware on your phone as the recovery is for, only then you can flash it with fastboot flash recovery as well!

    EDIT: It seems that the Firmware downgrade from OOS12 to OOS11 is not working on phones with DDR5 RAM, so please dont use the downgrade from OOS12 to OOS11 when you have DDR5 RAM !!!!!

    From OOS11 Firmware to OOS12 Firmware ROM
    --------------------------------------------------------
    Check DDR RAM type (from Windows cmd)
    adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    or from Terminal on your phone
    getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    When you are on OOS12 use this from the Orangefox Terminal:
    cat /proc/devinfo/ddr_type
    Download latest Orangefox 12.1 img file from here
    Download OOS12 flashable Firmware for your phone from here or, Oneplus 8t, Oneplus 9r
    adb reboot bootloader
    fastboot boot OrangeFox_R12.1-xx.img
    adb sideload fw_Oneplus8T_EU_cXX_DDR0.zip
    adb rebooot bootloader
    fastboot flash recovery OrangeFox_R12.1-xx.img
    fastboot reboot recovery
    Apply Update - apply via ADB
    adb sideload ROM_OOS12_Based.zip
    Factory reset/Format Data
    Reboot System


    From OOS12 Firmware to OOS11 Firmware ROM
    --------------------------------------------------------
    Please only use this right now when you have DDR4 RAM in your phone!
    (seems that phones with DDR5 RAM get issues after flashing the OOS11 Firmware)

    Check DDR RAM type (from Windows cmd)
    adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    or from Terminal on your phone
    getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    When you are on OOS12 use this from the Orangefox Terminal:
    cat /proc/devinfo/ddr_type
    Download latest Orangefox 12.1 img file from here
    Download OOS11 flashable Firmware for your phone from here or, Oneplus 8t, Oneplus 9r
    Download Recovery_OOS11_FW_Android12_decryption.img from here
    adb reboot bootloader
    fastboot boot Orangefox R12.1 recovery
    flash OOS11.0.13.13 Firmware
    flash ROM_OOS11_Based.zip
    reboot to bootloader
    fastboot boot Recovery_OOS11_FW_Android12_decryption.img
    Factory reset/Format Data
    Reboot System

    Hey, at least its one step closer to finally switching to the new firmware. :)
    Yes I am a step closer now, I have updated it now with OOS12 files but still no luck in getting the decryption of data working.
    Guess I have to add/update some more things to get that working.
    Seems to me now that it is not even trying to decrypt now since something is missing or not yet updated.
    Have to dive deeper into this to understand what more needs to be fixed /updated now.
