Bootloader seemes to be unlocked but cannot flash using fastboot - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
First of all sorry for crappy links, but as a new user I cannot post them.
I have got a chinese phone called Haier W858 (imei.info/phonedatabase/15302-haier-w858/). Few days ago I found out that it is similar to Smartfren Andromax I3S and managed to modify stock ROM by fastboot without any problems (current ROM: needrom.com/download/smartfren-andromax-ad682h/). After that when I tried to turn on fastboot mode I got information that bootloader is locked and I need verify.zip file on sdcard to unlock it. Few searches later I found correct verify.zip file and put it on sdcard. Everything should be great, because now when I try to run fastboot mode I get information that verify.zip file is correct and phone turns into some kind of fastboot mode, but I cannot write anything to it.
For example, I get messages like:
Code:
> fastboot flash modem modem\NON-HLOS.bin
sending 'modem' (31985 KB)... OKAY
writing 'modem'... [B]FAILED (remote: can't flash Partition)[/B]
When I check if bootloader is unlocked by fastboot oem device-info I get:
Code:
>fastboot oem device-info
... INFO Device tampered: true
[B]INFO Device unlocked: true[/B]
INFO Charger screen enabled: true
OKAY
so it looks like everything should be alright.
Whatsmore, I can write any ROM by doing it like so:
- turn into that weird fastboot mode,
- boot up into TWRP or CWM by writing: fastboot boot recovery.img (because of this problem I cannot flash it permanently so I boot it up),
- install ROM from recovery.
What my question is - is it possible to flash previous fastboot mode where I could write anything to phone without problems and without checking any verify.zip file?
I do not know if it could help in anything but this is shot made when I did not have correct verify.zip file: postimg.org/image/u7thz6tq7/. Now it says that it is OK and boots up into that weird fastboot mode.
Thanks in advance.

Are you trying to flash a modem from a Samsung phone? Haven't seen NON-HLOS.bin files used in other phones before. That would explain why it wouldn't flash through fastboot...

Hard to say if it is modem from Samsung phone, because all of ROMs for this kind of phone got that file. Maybe it is based on Samsung soft... I did not have any problems with flashing this and other files once with fastboot (first flash that I made was with ROM from this site: needrom.com/download/smartfren-andromax-ad682h/) and it was successful, but after that I get messages that I wrote in 1st post.
Any advices?

Flashing system.img problem

Hi,
I have flash system.img file by using
Code:
D:\ADB\Android>fastboot flash system d:\backup\flash\system.img
sending 'system' (116302 KB)...
OKAY [114.524s]
writing 'system'...
OKAY [ 47.582s]
finished. total time: 162.108s
It seems normal to me, but the problem arise when I restart the the phone. The phone unable to boot, and when I try
Code:
ADB Shell
It says somethings like "sh" is not found. So I do reboot recovery go to the shell and mount /system. Shockingly there is nothing in there.
I have checked the contents of system.img, and there is a lot of things in there, including the "sh". But it seems fastboot failed to flash the system partition.
Anyone can help me ?
maybe you should tell more info about your device, brand,chipset, etc ?
so people can be more easy to help.
just newbie suggestion, ignore this if its no help xD
Looks like your system image file is corrupted cause its not mounted after loading kernel. What kind of filesystem the image is using?

The system image is not corrupted, because I can safely flash it using Clockworkmod. The filesystem is yaff2, and I have tried opening it using some software and my file is there. I think the problem lies on fastboot who failed flashing properly.

I would like to tell you my problem, I have a Mate 9 MHA-L09C605B111 which I did a rebrand a while ago and I'm with CUST 432 and installed the version of Oreo 8.0.0.368, a few weeks ago I received the update 369 via OTA. It was interesting to try; the problem is that I had open bootloader, TWRP Pretorian 3.2.0 and Root, take a terrible decision to do a relock of the bootloader.
After several attempts and letting the battery drain I could enter Fastboot mode, I have the FRP unlocked and I could unlock the bootloader again, the problem is that I can not enter either the TWRP, or to recovery mode, try flashing again the same TWRP I had installed it well but still when I want to enter after passing the Huawei logo it remains on the white screen of ERROR MODE, Func NO: 11 (recovery image) Error NO: (image Failed!) Reading other forums and looking I have been told a lot by Internet that it is necessary to make the Dload method try it but it did not work, I understand that it does not work in this model but I still try it.
I also did a flash with all the files as I found in a tutorial
"When you have system extracted, flash it in fastboot using fastboot flash system system.img.
Do the same with KERNEL, extract and flash to fastboot flash kernel KERNEL.IMG
(BOOT is now split into RAMDISK and KERNEL)
Recovery was split to recovery_ramdisk, recovery_vendor and recovery_vbmeta
Boot was split into ramdisk and kernel
Recovery2 (erecovery) was split into erecovery_ramdisk, erecovery_kernel, erecovery_vendor and erecovery_vbmeta
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img. Kernel flashed as fastboot flash kernel kernel.img.
Recovery ramdisk as fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img "
I'm still stuck on the same screen with error 11 and 2 I made the flash of the recovery that I used when I put version 368 are two MHA_RECOVERY_NoCheck.img and MHA_RECOVERY2_NoCheck.img both give Failed using the command Fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_XXXX with both the same without using the _ramdisk command is equal I'm still stuck in the same state.
Does anyone have an idea that another method I can try?
I will thank you very much.
You can flash all * .img through ADB and in this case there is a specific order to do it, check several threads but I did not get an answer and search but I could not find anything, it is worth noting that when I flash files I mentioned before all OKAY but on power up it goes back to error 11 and 2 I have been told that it is a partition problem but I could not find something to recover them, there is some method that is missing or maybe an error in the steps I am doing ? I still can not access the TWRP but I can access without problems by ADB.

Remove RFP Lock Huawei Y6

Hi all,
I have a small problem, my phone does not boot and hanging on Logo. Now i can boot to fastboot menu, but i cannot really use it since i have FRP lock . Is there any chance to baypass it to make possible to flash recovery boot.img ?
When i try any command getting this error :
Code:
target reported max download size of 266338304 bytes
sending 'revocery' (4096 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.142s]
writing 'revocery'...

Since my phone not booting i cannot use this option Please help
Hi, back again
As i can see, try not to mess with the names :revocery...
When you want to flash the boot.img don't change that name.
Just flash it like : fastboot flash boot boot.img
Use my last boot.img which i sent you. That's a good one out of my backup.
For the FRP (perhaps edit your thread tiltle ) i have no answer in a minute. Did the "fastboot oem unlock" gave anything better ?

You cannot use this method since i have only FastBoot feature, adb is not possible to use, since phone never boot. This method can be used only for phones what can boot correctly, so unfortunately useless for me. but thx for link

There was a time when xda where the place to get the right answer and quick!
nowadays most topics are full of people with same problem and no dev to come to help, pity.
on topic: I have the same problem, ( mine is a Y6 pro) and before bricking it I had debugging and oem unlock enabled but now can't flash boot etc using fastboot ( error , denied ..) and can't use spflashtools either : preloader vcom appears for 1 second and then disappears and phone turns on.
tried many drivers, 3 Os'es (7, 8.1 ,10) still no luck.

the same issue
Good day, i have the same issue on my p9 EVA-L19.
FRP lock. And i can't do anything...
My warranty says that they cannot recover data from the phone, but the information is very important. I need to unlock FRP and somehow boot into TWRP or something to recover my data.
Please help someone if you had a same issue and results.
For the Huawei Y6 you can return to Stock.
Try to fastboot boot recovery-twrp.img and put your stock firmware (dload) folder to the rootdir at your sdcard.
Reboot your device to bootloader and hold down vol+ + vol- and use the command: fastboot boot stockrecovery.img (keep the keys pressed until the stock recovery comes up and starts installing your stock rom.
You will see an emui logo and the recovery will install the complete stock rom if you did everything right.
Retry to boot the stock recovery with this way if it is not working at the first try.
EDIT: after i wiped /system and and all the other stuff i was able to flash stock recovery via fastboot.

Try to do:
fastboot boot recovery.img
This will boot up the device with the given image. With that you can put a custom rom to your sd-card and flash it.
I will upload a Nandroid (stock system, recovery, boot) from my Y6 SCL-L01 soon.
With that you can restore boot and recovery with twrp. For this way you don't need to have a frp unlock.
Procedure:
fastboot boot recovery-twrp.img
Put your stock firmware (dload folder) to the sdcard.
Put my Nandroid to your sdcard.
Restore my Nandroid, reboot your device with Vol+ and Vol- pressed.
This way only works for SCL-L01 up to SCL-L04.
I need to create an extra recovery.img that includes a dt image that fits for all SCL variants.
Work in progress...
I have just removed frp today, but its not free method, unfortunately

Need help installing recovery on XT1526, it's just not working, tried all the methods

EDIT: ALSO, use usb 2.0 ports to flash stuff, usb 3.0 is not working 100 percent yet.
EDIT, 14 Mar 2016: Kingroot got me to root and now I have twrp installed, http://www.kingroot.net/ .
I have a Sprint prepaid Moto E 2015 LTE, XT1526. I did the motorola bootloader unlock, that went fine.
The phone works and is activated on RingPlus, when it boots, I get the Red Warning, Bootloader unlocked, when normally booting.
When I try to flash a recovery to the phone (all that I could find here on XDA), I get this response:
S:\Phones\Moto_E-2015-2ndGen-XT1526\adb-and-fastboot>fastboot devices

I've tried everything, and am providing as much info as I can, in case anyone seeing something that is 'new' or 'different' about my phone.
Double check and be sure you're attempting to flash the TWRP for the Moto E 2015 LTE "Surnia", not "Otus" (which is the Moto E 2015 3G). iirc, I used Squid's TWRP from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/development/twrp-squid-twrp-recovery-moto-e-lte-t3137649 . If 3.0.0 doesn't work, try 2.8.7.
You should also try changing USB ports. I ran into a similar issue where I wasn't able to flash things when I plug into my most often used USB port. I suspect that the contacts got worn from how often I used it, so I tried another USB port and it worked fine.
I have done same procedure as yours and meet same problem yesterday.
I flashed twrp recovery with following command,
fastboot boot recovery.img
instead of
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
here are the post which I followed.

I know that, does not help. I've tried that recovery, one from cyanogenmod also, the recovery img is not the problem. Thanks anyway.
go to phone options and turn on USB debugging and when you go to flash it..
- turn off phone.
- hold volume down and power to get to boot loader screen..
Leave it there and connect to PC.
It should be showing you the bootloader screen.. you know what that is right ?
Then open "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" install folder..
Right click empty folder space while holding shift key down..
Select open cmd window here..
type in either,
fastboot devices
or
mfastboot devices
and make sure it says your device is listed
then paste into cmd window..
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
make sure your new recovery file has that name and is copied to that fastboot folder.
that should be it..

Can a DEV please help ? If I need to go back to stock I'll be glad to do it and then unlock the bootloader again, however, I've posted in two diff forums trying to get someone to tell me the correct SPRINT img to bring back to stock, no answers.
XT1526_SURNIA_USC_5.0.2_LXI22.50-29.1_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
XT1526_SURNIA_REPW_5.0.2_LXI22.50-56-1.1_cid6_subsidy-REPUB_CFC.xml
XT1526_SURNIA_BOOST_5.0.2_LXI22.50-14.8_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
I think it's the boost, but it doesn't have the SPRINT label on it, like my phone.
You just said,
"Can a DEV please help ? If I need to go back to stock I'll be glad to do it and then unlock the bootloader again"
So why would you say that ?
Did you relock your bootloader ?
Maybe that is why you are having a problem ?
I never have relocked mine eh..
And i have had no problem flashing TWRP from Squid.. all his various updates overwriting the old one.
I have flashed a bunch of stock retail recoveries too and all of those worked fine too.
I am curious did you try and load recovery after to see if it actually changed or not ?
EDIT:
Can i ask you exactly what Custom Recovery you are trying to install ?
And did you verify the MD5 hash ?
I always do *if it's available..

I've done all those things and tried to post as much info in my OP. Is there a Dev that can help me?
I've now tried to go back to stock in an effort to unlock this biatch using XT1526_SURNIA_BOOST_5.0.2_LXI22.50-14.8_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml, and it wont let me do that either. It's not letting me write to the GPT partition. This leads me to believe my phone is NOT unlocked, even though the bootloader shows UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER. Anyone know an answer?
I noticed something a while back when I attempted to flash recovery on a different phone (nexus 6) but failed. I tried a bunch of stuff to no avail. The solution was to simply get a new set of platform tools because mine was too old. Doesn't hurt to try.

Thank you for trying. I just found a post, (and now I can't find it), but the guy went through what I did, and then he used KingRoot, http://www.kingroot.net/ , and it worked.
So, I tried it too, and magic, it worked. I now have root and TWRP installed.
I could have sworn I tried KingRoot, but it must have been on another phone I had.
Are you sure your recovery file is called recovery.img and not twrp.xxx.img? If not you need to rename it
Another problem I had, I was using a USB 3.0 port on my computer. This is a not the way. Using a USB 2.0 port works on flashing stuff.
Hi faheyd, I also have XT1526 on android 5.0.2, but kingroot fails. I was told not to update OS to keep it working in India.
Doess ur phone run on 5.1?
Does USB debugging needs to be activated?

Unable to install recovery

Hi guys, my phone is Infocus M2 3G and I have rooted it earlier. Now I accidentally removed some services and now getting errors. I want to flash stock rom so it can be like previous one.
I installed ADB and fastboot in my system.
When I tried the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
the following error came:
Code:
sending 'recovery' (10240 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.417s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:
Security deny - Err:0x2017
)
finished. total time: 0.430s
I searched and I got to know that this may be because of bootloader lock.
So I tried the command
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
and
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
For oem unlock it showed unknown command and for flashing unlock it showed all options of fastboot.
I installed Rom Manager and select boot into recovery option, it took me to Android Recovery System 3e.
I have stock rom files downloaded and just want to put stock rom in my phone. Any Ideas that can help?

Hi guys, my phone is Infocus M2 3G and I have rooted it earlier. Now I accidentally removed some services and now getting errors. I want to flash stock rom so it can be like previous one.
I installed ADB and fastboot in my system.
When I tried the command
the following error came:
I searched and I got to know that this may be because of bootloader lock.
So I tried the command and

You can try putting the stock ROM zip file on the root of your sdcard (As in not located in any sub folders) and renaming the ROM file to update.zip then use the stock recovery to flash the ROM. Let me know if you still have questions!

Any way to recover my bricked phone? (wiped recovery, erecovery, data, system....)

Hello guys...
So, without going too much into details of how I idiotically f-ed up pretty much everything... I just want to say that I've already lost about 12 hours reading through the forum trying to solve the problem and to understand how everything works, and by what I understood... I bricked the phone?
Firstly, I managed to unlock the bootloader with the HCU Client (Phone unlocked, FRP unlocked). At some points I've managed to boot into TWRP's, but I flashed them without understanding that I should have installed the recommended ones by the guys on this forum instead of the official one, with which I wiped System and Data partition.
I've tried hard but never managed to boot any of the Custom ROMs available, especially the LineageOS 16 which I wanted but later on, through a specific TWRP which gave an error information that it's meant for Hisilicon, and not for Kirin SoC...
I also had no idea when I was booting into recovery, and when into erecovery, because I flashed TWRP over both of them... I have really no idea what was the last thing to happen, but now it seems as if I can't boot into eRecovery anymore, and whatever I try flashing to the recovery_ramdisk over Fastboot, I just always get the same error when trying to boot into recovery
Error! Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed!)
Now I'm also having an issue because my battery has drained and it doesn't seem to turn on without it being connected to the charger or a PC.
Is there anything that I can do to make it work with any Custom ROM?

This is the result of some people posting nonsense here.
In fastboot mode run commands:
fastboot oem get-build-number
fastboot oem get-product-model
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
fastboot oem oeminforead-CUSTOM_VERSION
fastboot oem oeminforead-SYSTEM_VERSION
and post the results.

Alf is right:
Gather info about your phone with the fastboot commands -Alf- provided.
Using this info, find TWRP that 100% supports your phone. TWRP that is recommended in the "p20 lite basics" thread on XDA.
Start phone in fastboot mode. Use the fastboot boot twrp.img command to TEMPORARILY boot into TWRP (twrp.img must be in the same folder as fastboot.exe)
If TWRP hangs, reboot, try another TWRP
Once you are in TWRP, perform wipe and advanced wipe to clean up EVERY PARTITION (except sdcard) that you've messed up in the internal memory.
wipe data again to enable USB file transfer
Find a ROM for your phone. USE THE INFO FROM STEP 1 to figure out if the rom is REALLY for your model AND hardware revision of the phone. Pay attention to the device serial number and codename! ROMS developers use device codenames to indicate what model is compatible and what isnt. Huawei p20 lite has a total of 7(!!!) hardware revisions, and ROMS for each are different and likely NOT cross-compatible, which means if you install the wrong one, you will end up with a brick or a bootloop.
While TWRP is still on, Transfer ROM.zip to the phone.
In TWRP, use "Install" option to flash the ROM.
DO NOT FLASH TWRP PERMANENTLY! LET THE STOCK RECOVERY BE. FLASHING TWRP TO A/B (DUAL SLOT) DEVICES WILL 99% RESULT IN A BOOTLOOP. MOST MODERN DEVICES ARE A/B.
Flash Gapps if you need.
Reboot. Will take longer to start on the first boot.

Sorry, but I'm already stuck at step 3:

Sending 'boot.img' (15652 KB) OKAY [ 0.411s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'Command not allowed')

I see. Some phones have this issue. where bootloader will not allow the "boot" command. Can be for a number of reasons:
1. Bootloader isnt "fully" unlocked, please check with the unlocking guide/service provider (if unlock was a paid service)
2. Bootloader is in "retail" mode, not a "service" mode. Some manufacturers do not intend for bootloader to be unlocked, and ship the devices with a restricted "retail" version that blocks certain commands.
also, why is your fastboot sending the "boot.img" while the command had " twrp img" as a payload?
I take it the bootloader still lets you use the "flash" command? If true, flash TWRP temporarily by "fastboot flash boot twrp.img", restart teh phone using the recovery menu keycombo

No, there is only one reason - on Huawei devices we do not have a "boot" partition since Android 7.

Thank you, I've put them in blender and set it to "lightspeed" mode
I'm sorry, but flashing that TWRP gives me the exact error I've been getting before when trying to boot into Recovery... the fact that the phone can't charge also gives some headache to actually even try to boot into the recovery. I just can't get into.
Edit: The furthest I can get to is that recovery error message.
hi there..was reading about your problem..i'm not sure if the same rules apply to all or most phones with regards to flashing twrp or using fastboot..i'm assuming that they do.
So, are you able to boot into fastboot and/or recovery?
if no to recovery, i guess it may be the wrong twrp, i hope you can at least boot into fastboot without any issues.
Personally i had a xiaomi poco f2 pro 6/128 and then i bought another same model phone but 8/256 from a fellow who almost bricked his phone..it was just blinking, when i restarted the phone, it went straight into blinking whenever i tried to boot into recovery, and it wouldnt boot into system anyway cos there was nothing there. so i figured it was stuck in recovery loop.
i was fortunate that i was able to hook up to it using my pc...then using command prompt, i was able to switch to fastboot mode..then i tried downloading and flashing different twrps, over 10 different twrps, and finally one worked..then it was smooth sailing from then on..and presto, that became my daily use phone.

Can you boot into eRecovery (into TWRP installee over eRecovery)? If so, try to flash eRecovery_ramdisk.img in TWRP,
download Here for EMUI 9.1
or Here for 8.0 (I'm not sure what is your current version).
In eRecovery mode you can charge the phone ( charging should also work in TWRP which is installed instead of eRecovery).

I can boot to the Fastboot, but unfortunately I can't boot to either recovery or erecovery... When trying to boot to the recovery by holding the power+volume up button until I see the "Your device has been unlocked" warning message + 2 seconds (which is when I see the recovery error message), or when trying to boot while plugged into USB also holding the power+volume up button just leaves me at "Your device is booting now...." forever

Download stock Recovery Oreo
Link
Flash it in fastboot
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDISK-ANE-8.0.img
- fastboot reboot
Then try to boot into Recovery.
What exactly did you do after unlocking your phone? Did you upgrade back to A9? If so, then flash recovery_ramdisk A9
Download here

I've tried both, they give me the same error.
After I flash the recovery I can't really reboot straight into recovery because of the issue with the battery... somehow I gotta hold the Volume UP key, while catching exact moment when I can unplug USB after the low battery status page passes, and before Huawei logo appears...
After unlocking the phone I flashed TWRP over either recovery or erecovery (idk anymore)... then I probably installed Pixel Experience 13 ROM (https://github.com/ponces/treble_build_pe/releases)
And after that... I tried too many things I can't even remember anymore.
