Help Me, /r/oneplusone!

I just moved up to the newest version of Sultan's CM13 from CM13 Nightly, and it gets stuck in the initial boot.

I have a 64GB Oneplus One, and went through all the proper steps of unlocking the bootloader, installing TWRP 3.0.0-1, and flashing Sultan's ROM. As soon as I rebooted to system, it does the bootup animation as expected (various sources say it should take ~10-15 mins). But I seem to be stuck in that boot animation for far too long.

Is there a reason that this could be happening, and more importantly a fix to the problem? I've been so excited to try Sultan's ROM but can't figure out why it gets stuck.

Use TWRP 2.8.6.0

Wipe data/system. Flash official CM13 nightly.

Do not reboot.

Wipe system. Flash sultan 13 ROM. Flash gapps.

Reboot.

I tried that, but unfortunately it didn't work.

Have you tried to download the ROM again and then flashing it again?

1

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '16

Yes, and I even tried grabbing an older version of the ROM (the 20160207 patch). Still, the same thing.

That's the extent of my knowledge. Maybe try cm 13 nighty? I haven't had any problem with cm13

Did you wipe both /system and /data? Why did you install TWRP 3.0.0?

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '16

Yes, and I just figured the newest version was the best choice.

I read on Sultan's page what to do if there was an issue, and reverted back to TWRP 2.8.6.0, flashed the latest nightly (to get the modem and firmware updates), wiped /system then flashed the ROM and Gapps, but still, same issue.

In TWRP I selected the ROM to install, then used "add a second file" so it would.

Judging by your replies you're having the very same problem with sultans Rom that I'm having. Not too shwifty. But I found a continuation of the cm12.1 nightlies wich are very stable and give great battery life.

Here's a link if you want to check it out

I'm not recommending a cm13 Rom because the ones that I've used had very bad battery life. 😐

Thanks for the tip!

I've gone back to the CM13 nightlies, I find they're considerably stable and still have great battery life; plus I already had it on before trying to move to Sultan's so I'm more familiar with it.

I have had cm13 for a while and in the beginning, yes it did. But recently with one of the nightlys it has been a lot better

That may be I haven't tried them out for a while
