Apart from that, these devices also behold an impressive feature set, considering the price segment to which they belong. Likewise, they are also quite active in custom development. Right from unlocking the bootloader to flashing custom ROMs and recoveries, there’s a lot to try out. You may also gain administrative privileges by rooting the device via Magisk. However, all these tweaks bring in a few uninvited risks as well. If you flash an incorrect binary or mess up with any instructions, then there are chances of your device ending up in a bootloop or soft-bricked state. Fortunately, there’s a handy way out. You could easily unbrick your Oppo Reno series device by flashing the stock firmware via Fastboot Commands. And this guide will show you how to do just that. So without further ado, let’s get started.

You could unbrick the following Oppo Reno devices using the instructions given in this tutorial:
STEP 1: Install Android SDK
First and foremost, you will have to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one.
