Need help rooting Oneplus One

[ColorfulShardMC]

So I'm using the Oneplus One Toolkit that was developed by manudroid19

I already have windows recognize it as abd and abd is enabled.

The bootloader is also already unlocked.

But now i need to flash a recovery but it won't let me do so.

See "Flash a recovery" in the bottom right corner?

When I click it, nothing pops up.

Help pls.

which way did you unlock the bootloader? Did you do it the standard way?

yeah So?

[ColorfulShardMC]

which way did you unlock the bootloader? Did you do it the standard way?

So what if I indeed used it?

So what if I indeed used it?

1. you don't need to quote me twice

2. standard way is guaranteed to work

Sorry about that. So now what can I do? IF nothing else works?

Sorry about that. So now what can I do? IF nothing else works?

do it the standard way as @Aniallation said. go download Minimal Adb and Fastboot, and then type the following commands in fastboot mode (to get in, power down the phone, then hold the power button and volume up for 3 seconds)

then type this in Minimal Adb and fastboot

fastboot oem unlock

then download the custom recovery of your choice (.img file) (I'd recommend TWRP or Philz Touch) and have that inside the minimal adb and fastboot directory where you have it installed, then type this

fastboot flash recovery xxfilenamexx.img

once flashed, type

fastboot wipe cache

then do 

fastboot reboot

bam, now you have a custom recovery.

To boot into the custom recovery

1) go into about phone and enable dev options

2) in dev options enable advanced reboot.

2.5) go and download SuperSU here on your device

3)Hold the power button, tap reboot, then hit "recovery" and hit OK.

 

then in the recovery, hit install and then go to the download directory in sdcard and then find superSU .zip and flash and reboot. That simple.

You won't brick it by flashing recovery in fastboot lol
