thread was cleaned. i made a bad mistake of asking donations, which is against the rules of XDA. i was contacted by a moderator regarding this issue, thats why the thread was cleaned, and i was given a warning, and lucky enough not to get banned or loose my R.D. tittle... and paypal is giving me a hard time with unlocking the money, due to the nature of my account, so i need to do more stuff to be able to unlock the money, and finnaly order the missing parts. im attaching screenshots so you guys can see i am not lying and the donations will be applied in the repair of the op8 soon i unlock the money held...

Glad they didn't boot you and I am sure they recognized your contributions to the community.
On a technical note, I finally managed to install TWRP on my IN2017 running 11.C.43 but not by the posted directions! Before and after each flash I had to specify which slot was the active one. This is probably due to the fact that I have a corrupted boot.img, at the least, in slot_b. Now my next project is to find an international version I can patch with Magisk and fill the void with.
I am really coming to like the dual slot setup on these phones. It definitely makes it a lot harder to brick than say an S9+.
Infected, again thanks for your contributions and I am open to DM's if anyone wanted to give me some tips from their experiences on the direction of my projects that are off topic in this thread.

May I ask a (stupid?) question?
I just flashed my OnePlus8 with custom ROM LineageOS 20 (Android13).
This TWRP here (ext4-version) cannot decrypt data. It asks for the decryption key, but when I entered the correct PIN, the decryption failed.
I deleted the PIN, LOS is booting correctly without asking for any Key/PIN, but TWRP even did ask for a decryption key, which does not exist.
What can I do to get it work?
Thanks a lot,
samhhmobil

i actually had the same problem, followed instructions on how to fix it that I found online, and now I am stuck in a bootloop with access to both TWRP and fastboot.
No clue how to proceed from here.
I think it depends on the firmware version. I have the same problem with EvoX when upgraded to the FW 15.
What rom are you using?
i've fixed the issue with my paypal being a merchant account. here's new donations link:

If you are seeking donations for your work why don't you put a link in the OP? It's going to get lost here in the thread. Most other developers seem to have link's in the first post
The donations went towards fixing his device so he could continue his work and, in return provide us with continued updates to twrp. That mission has been accomplished now.
should arrive tomorrow! thank you all, you guys are great, and specially @scorpio76r, you're my brother in arms, no doubt..
ill be soon back developing to the op8
many thanks for the donations, once again, it allowed me to buy an used op8.

Stock OOS, 11_C.43 (Android 12). Unfortunately I was unable to extract a copy of it beforehand nor find one online and I don't have access to a Windows machine. I could dual boot my laptop and run MSM tool but I would like to do everything in Linux.
Funny part is after I lost boot access to the OS and subsequently tried to factory reset the device through TWRP, it (TWRP) started recognizing the data on my initially corrupted slot_b. Nothing there anymore now as I wiped that as well.
At this point I was going to load up images on my laptop and run 'fastboot boot' until something gives and then flash the device if and when that happens. Afterwards I can work on achieving root.
I don't expect to be using the phone again anytime soon.
I will begin the process of setting up my laptop for dual-boot after shoveling this snow.
Thank you.

The zip is flashable through Magisk.
I'm with an OP8 Pro (IN2020) running OOS 13.0 IN2023_11_F.62, flashed TWRP (EROFS) as a Magisk module and everything is working fine.2
Depends on your OOS version. From the explanations I got on Telegram ext4 = OOS 11 and erofs = OOS 12-13.
Disclaimer: I'm just repeating what I was told, no guarantees lol

Thanks for the replies, I'll try booting it when I have time instead of flashing it. I'm running the stock rom and recently updated to OOS 13. TWRP used to be so easy to figure out.

Sometimes the error is because what you are trying to flash is not compatible, it's a safety measure to prevent flashing something that can harm your device.
You might be surprised what kinds of issues that updating/downgrading TWRP will fix.1I have looked and cannot find a satisfactory answer to this queston that makes me comfortable. Which version, ext4 or erofs, do I need for a North American version of the OP 8 Pro? Thanks in advance. -

TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers, and zulip-chat.
A custom recovery is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom "ROM".
Team Win strives to provide a quality product. However, it is your decision to install our software on your device. Team Win takes no responsibility for any damage that may occur from installing or using TWRP.
