My phone is doing the exact same thing. Very Frustrating!!! It will boot into TWRP once. No matter what, it will only boot into the stock recovery after that.

I have tried every version of TWRP in this forum. Tried rebooting directly into TWRP after installing it. No Success. Every time I get only the boot screen with choices. When I select Recovery, I get only a blank screen or the stock recovery.

I never had this problem on either of my OnePlus Ones so I am totally at a loss on how to remedy this.

Any help would be thoroughly appreciated, believe me.
Same issue for me. Tried rebooting into TWRP multiple time and then boot to system. When I try to boot to TWRP again its back to stock. ROM is stock OOS V3.2.3

This seems to be a not uncommon thing with this phone. I have noticed the same behavior in ROM threads.

Surely someone on this forum must know how to fix it.... :confused:

ADB & MTP was not working for me on v3.0.2.0, But I found a fix.

Universal Naked Driver 0.73 --> For USB ADB [Download it from link in Official TWRP One+3 page]

For MTP --> Right Click On "Unknown MTP Device" (Device Manager in Windows) > Update Driver Software > Browse My Computer For Software > Let Me Pick > Show All Devices > Standard MTP Device > MTP USB Device

[Note : You may need to download and install the "One Plus USB drivers Package" first]

Hope this helps people with the same problem.

As soon as I got the phone i unlocked the bootloader. Then flashed twrp, never thought about it again. Until last Monday, I wanted to change the DPI. Decided to make a back up. This same this was happening to me, trying everything possible... manual flashing and trying the tool kit multiple times. The only way I was able to get twrp to stick was to root the phone. I never planned on rooting even though I've rooted all my phones, but that's the only way I found to get twrp to stay. I hope this helps.

I finally got it fixed. Posted on the Toolkit thread. The Toolkit at the time had an older version of TWRP. I loaded the new version into my phone, used the Toolkit to install the older version, and without rebooting, installed the new version with TWRP.

That did the trick. I have never used a toolkit before on any of my phones but this time it was the only thing that worked.

Try this, it worked for me. Flash TWRP as normal , reboot and instead of entering your unlock code, when TWRP loads, press cancel this should take you to a "Keep System Read only?" prompt, Swipe the notification to allow TWRP to do it's stuff and in my case that causes it to stick.

I have a very weird issue with twrp. It started to show an error that the system cannot be mounted and there's no OS installed. Everything was working fine back a week ago... Any advice?

Same here, It happen to me twice.

The first time I just used Ifont to change system font, reboot to system, then hang on 1+ logo, go to twrp, delete xpoded-modulelist.txt..... Still bootloop, hang on 1+ logo.
And I can't boot into TWRP (3.0.2.1) after that , try many times, sometimes it's luck to enter TWRP, but I can't mount system/date, can't advance wipe cache/dalvic/system/data, can't dirty flash rom.
Then I fastboot flash TWRP, may be boot into twrp sometimes , but still can't mount every partition in internal storage.
Finally fastboot flash stock recovery, wipe with stock recovery, try to adb sideload ota.zip with stock recovery, I have try both stock OOS and H2Os, both stuck at 47%, I almost give up. And think about return phone to China.
I give it a chance:crying: :crying:, fastboot flash TWRP (3.0.2.0 official), and it work , I dirty freedom OS and it can mount the system, after system reboot, no data lost, just like run a normal aroma dirty flash.
It's very strange.

The second time, I just flash TBO black theme on some system app, It happen again!!
Reflash TWRP both version serval times still cant boot into TWRP or mount data/system, almost give up again. But after a stock recovery wipe, it auto boot into system sucessfully ! All my data is the same and google hangout black flashed, but root access lost, and I am with stock recovery.

I don't know 1) it's relate to not Wipe cache/Dalvik Cache after system/data changed
or 2) exf4/FAT problem format like this

Now i just went to get back my root access and won't flash anything till it clear.
(at least need to fastboot flash TWRP then flash superSU.zip with TWRP)

It's also work fine for me most of time , but I must clear what cause the data/system mount disable on my device, can't boot into both system and data was scared Me :mad:

I just fastboot flash official TWRP => successed boot into system => reboot into TWRP => flash superSU , wipe cache/dalvik => boot into system => superSu and Xposed work fine.

Maybe next time it happen to TWRP can't mount data/system and cant get into TWRP , I can go " fastboot erase cache" .
