Hey guys,
My younger brother had TWRP installed on his OP3. Yesterday he applied OTA and his phone got bricked. I unbricked it from MSMtool method (Qualcom Driver). It got unbricked and i have stock rom now however phone is stuck at android is upgrading (45 minutes). I tried restarting it and now it is in boot loop. i tried to flash latest OxygenOS from adb sideload and it got bricked again. Can anyone tell me what to do now or what is wrong with the device.

You have TWRP installed? Use Method 2 of the unbrick guide. Now you want to wipe every partition then adb push your rom (not sideload) and manually flash it. Make sure you are on the latest Bluspark twrp.

I am using method 2, the OS gets stuck on bootloop that's why i tried to sideload later
I don't have a working recovery, all i can get is stock recovery, how can i install twrp?
I've tried flashing (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) it but it is not working

Yes, it says flashing partition not allowed.
I suppose it is because usb debugging is off.
Check again the bootloader to be unlocked. Use the tool for that, is it on OP3 forum, then retry to get a stock rom up before anything else (TWRP, custom rom, etc)
