DivestOS: long term device support with enhanced privacy and security

OnePlus 6 (enchilada)

DOS build divested-18.1-20210814-dos-enchilada

Unfortunately, another installation attempt failed.

Starting point was a fully functional LineageOS build lineage-18.1-20210810-nightly-enchilada-signed including lineage recovery installed on the A6003.

The installation of the DOS build was without complications this time, but no proper boot followed. The A6003 booted, first showing the OnePlus logo [1¹] then the familiar notice <!> The boot loader is unlocked and software

In the next second, the screen goes black and the above-mentioned <!> message is displayed again in a flash. So there is a bootloop without showing the Divest boot animation and/or the DOS logo. Too bad!

The Divest-Recovery was installed and could be operated flawlessly. The two installation attempts via adb sideload divested-18.1-20210814-dos-enchilada did not bring a positive experience, but the A6003 behaved as described one paragraph above.

Currently I’ve installed the SHRP SkyHawk Recovery v3.1 stable official. A top-notch custom recovery based on TWRP, visually appealing and valuable additional options. With SHRP the Lineage 18.1 build lineage-18.1-20210810-nightly-enchilada-signed.zip was successfully installed. After the LOS installation, the SHRP-Recovery is still operational on the A6003, which means it has not been replaced by a Lineage-Recovery.

Oh God, can you believe that! No more than 3 consecutive replies are allowed. Please edit your previous reply, or wait for someone to reply to you.

As a reminder, there is currently no TWRP custom recovery or comparable. DivestOS also does not offer a separately installable DOS recovery. Lone alternative: lineage-recovery-bramble.

With which fastboot command do I flash super_empty.img where?
