Okay here's my situation my phone was rooted, bootloader unlocked I was on stock rooted lollipop my phone turned off on its own it got stuck in a boot loop . I was going to flash lollipop again notice recovery didn't load so I went to fastboot and tried to flash twrp-2.8.7.0 it loaded but then it froze at start up of twrp tried again and the same. So I tried a newer recovery twrp 2.8.70 this one didn't load all the way neither same for twrp3.0.0.0 so after all that I just said screw it I'm going stock. So I booted to download mode and use lgup lollipop .kdz method everything loaded up fine. I noticed my boot loader got locked Rom loaded up and before I can finish the initial setup phone rebooted again. Now I'm stuck in a boot loop,no download mode it just reboots when launched and locked bootloader. Can't unlock it in fastboot any suggestions on what to do?

Your phone probably tried to update by itself. You should probably use lgup to return to stock since you can get to download mode now. Follow this thread to root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-v10/general/step-step-guide-rooting-lg-v10-using-t3382631

Hold volume up and plug in the USB at same time while the phone is off to get to download mode. And did you follow all directions for rooting on marshmallow?
EDIT: I prefer this thread as it describes more. http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-v10/general/root-android-6-0-h901-t3382819

Okay I have pin pointed the problem it's hardware issue it only boots up if the phone is hot What do I do now? As long as the phone is hot it works that's why I couldn't boot recovery download mode. Cause the phone would stop working freeze all the time.:good:

Do you have insurance on it? I think the only thing you can do is replace it since it's a hardware issue.

[Q] LG P769 Restore Issue

Here is my issue, will try to explain as much as I can:
So I got the phone only booting to the LG logo and no further. So I read a couple threads which were mentioning about the LG Flash tool that I could try to use to restore the device, that did not work. So I tried to do Fastboot to see if that would help in any way. After trying, I was able to get Fastboot using @Lelus method ,now I cant get back the S/W upgrade mode, trying everything i could think of and still no progress. Would really love to fix this device and appreciate any help I can get.
days , I can help you. First download the drivers for your phone (if you have already remove them and re-load )
Next, download the LG Mobile Support Tool .
then go to your phone S / W upragade Mode (Press the volume up or down on the start)
then start the support tool as an administrator.
then press the Settings update recovery .
on the 90% of the phone restarts functional.
If you have any problem just say it to me!

Already tried all that. Phone does not boot or nothing. I can only access fastboot. I cant even flash the ICS u and x boot. When I try it says remote: partition doesn't exist.
Can you flash recovery through fastboot, and then acces it? I had similiar problem to yours, bricked my phone, barley made it to fastboot, i then flashed recovery using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img then booted to recovery and applied backup, or you might aswell flash a rom, if you don't have rom on your SD, use other phone to put ROM on sd, or card reader etc., the just install it. Just incase. i added recovery.img to my post.
Forgot to mention, after flashing recovery, try fastboot reboot recovery

Mate2-TWRP Install Issue

Hello everyone. I had TWRP installed on my Mate 2. There was some update a few months ago and now I can no longer boot into TWRP. All I get is the stock recovery. ADB install of TWRP always reports successful (OKAY [ 0.797s]). Graphical installation always fails however ("Something is wrong" error).
Has anyone been through this? Nothing I do seems to get me back to being able to use TWRM.

Agreed, there are, and I have been through and tried many including:
Downloading TWRP Manager and install from there
Down;load Flashify and install fropm there
Install via ADB Fastboot
Copying image to SD card and flashing from there
Copying update to SD card and flashing from there
None has worked. I'mk thinking the one and only update I received changed the boot partition or something.

TWRP killed my Honor 5X?

Hello everyone!
I tried to install CM13 nightly on my brand new Honor 5X. Followed the process, installed TWRP 3.0.2 bootloader and then the CM13 and Google Apps zips. When I booted the phone I saw the blue face for CM, but the phone never booted and kept rebooting! I tried to launch in TRWP recovery mode, but the swipe is locked and I can not go back to the install menu. TWRP is completely unresponsive no matter how i swipe or press the volume/power button. Why is TWRP like that?

When the twrp boots up, let the phone alone until the screen turns off. Press power and see if it starts working.
This usually does the trick for me.

I had faced this multiple times . I used get a jerk in my body if touch dint won't on twrp . almost phone in dead state and we still had to ability to access fastboot but twrp never work and even other recoveries .
So my solution is just soo easy .
Twrp touch failure is caused due to the kernal in Cyanogenmod .
So , just flash the stock boot.IMG and tadaaa .
Reboot to twrp and that's it .
And I may not be the only one ,but am just boosting the OP's anxiety and confidence levels making him aware that his phone is still alive .
Take it easy my frn . Am not a god to know everything , and I always try to live civil.thanks for your advice and I will take it sportive .
And +1 for you

Then just point it out to me straight using the words "You are wrong" with the explanation, why do you think so...
It will make me learn that my approach is wrong and will make me learn something new.
Using a direct and honest approach is much better than a sarcastic one. IMHO.

Guys,
Thanks, I will keep trying with your recommendations, here is where I left yesterday:
My issue is that TWRP does not recognize any touch event and I cannot swipe to unlock it and go to the menus. Not sure how it happened, but it used to work initially.
Out of desperation, I downloaded the US stock firmware from Huawei, placed the UPADTE.APPP under /sdcard/dload/update.zip
When I boot now (power+ volume up) I see a circle EMUI initial screen and some menus in Chinese (which I don't understand). With the volume, I am able to switch to the next menu where it discovers all wireless networks around me. But, I cannot select mine network with touching the screen, and the EMUI recovery does not work with the volume.
At this point my concern is that somehow I broke the phone as it is not responding to screen touch events. Could that be the reason why I cannot unlock TWRP?
I can install CM13 recovery image or TWRP any time, but that's about it - I cannot run CM13 (rebooted all the time and now TWRP is toast) or put back the stock firmware (blocked swipe on the screen items).

...Tried to follow your instructions, but no luck
1. I don't have TWRP backup. So, I downloaded the latest HUAWEI Honor 5x stock: (KIW-L24, Android 6.0.1,EMUI 4.0,C567D003,United States)
2. Extracted UPDATE.APP first, and then extracted boot.IMG from it.
3. Deployed the boot.img:
? platform-tools ./fastboot flash boot ~/Downloads/BOOT.img
target reported max download size of 266338304 bytes
sending 'boot' (44266 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.407s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 0.698s]

4. Deployed TWRP recovery:
? platform-tools ./fastboot flash recovery ~/Downloads/twrp-3.0.2-0-kiwi.img
target reported max download size of 266338304 bytes
sending 'recovery' (45202 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.438s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.713s]
finished. total time: 2.151s
5. Rebooted the phone - it keeps rebooting endlessly :
? platform-tools ./fastboot reboot
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.002s
5. Reboot the phone in recovery mode (power+Vol Up+Vol Down)
TWRP comes with the lock on the screen. No touch events, swipe as before. Dead as a door nail again!
6. Desperate, I also tried to deploy the CM13 recovery:
? platform-tools ./fastboot flash recovery ~/Downloads/cm-13.0-20161216-NIGHTLY-kiwi-recovery.img
target reported max download size of 266338304 bytes
sending 'recovery' (48114 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.517s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.751s]
finished. total time: 2.268s
This works - I am able to boot in CM recovery now, but the CM recovery tools is pretty useless and limited. Well, at least it does not rely on the touch screen and one can access the items ...
... So I am even more frustrated now with the whole experience. This process was not supposed to be such a descent into a black hole .
My thinking is that my Honor 5x lost its touch screen permanently due to this CM endeavors.
Also, is there any problem that it is a Chinese model (KIW-UL00) and I used US stock image in step 1 ?
Any other ideas?
i can say that u flashed US version which might have wrong display driver ! .. u need to go back to the stock as same what came with the phone
use full software dload or flash it throw fastboot after extracting update.app .
this link might help u . just make account and download the latest update .

5. Reboot the phone in recovery mode (power+Vol Up+Vol Down)
TWRP comes with the lock on the screen. No touch events, swipe as before. Dead as a door nail again!
6. Desperate, I also tried to deploy the CM13 recovery:
? platform-tools ./fastboot flash recovery ~/Downloads/cm-13.0-20161216-NIGHTLY-kiwi-recovery.img

OKAY [ 0.751s]
finished. total time: 2.268s
This works - I am able to boot in CM recovery now, but the CM recovery tools is pretty useless and limited. Well, at least it does not rely on the touch screen and one can access the items ...
... So I am even more frustrated now with the whole experience. This process was not supposed to be such a descent into a black hole .
My thinking is that my Honor 5x lost its touch screen permanently due to this CM endeavors.
Also, is there any problem that it is a Chinese model (KIW-UL00) and I used US stock image in step 1 ?
Any other ideas?

And keep twrp in recovery partition and reboot to recovery will fix
Don't flash cm recovery .
Do this way.
Flash stock ROM boot.img in to boot partition first .
Now reboot to recovery . touch will work then

[Solved]Touch screen not workiMoto G Powerng after rooting Moto G Power

Apologies if I should have searched harder. My understanding is that touch screen issues like this happen when the firmware you flash isn't quite compatible with your device. I've triple checked the stuff I downloaded, and I'm not seeing how it could be that. Maybe I did something else stupid? This is my first time rooting anything.
Product/Variant (as seen in bootloader): sofia XT2041-4 64GB PVT
The boot.img I downloaded: lolinet's firmware/moto/sofia/official/RETUS/ (the august 31 one. Currently trying with the earlier one, but the download is taking forever)
Magisk version: 7.5.1
I only have a linux laptop, so the rescue and smart assistant appears to be off the table
Here's what I did:
Downloaded the boot.img from lolinet
patched it using magisk
flashed it using fastboot
How I flashed it:
Code:
~/Downloads$ fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
target reported max download size of 805261312 bytes
sending 'boot_b' (12136 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.376s]
writing 'boot_b'...
OKAY [ 0.069s]
finished. total time: 0.446s
I booted up after this, and I couldn't use the touchscreen. Then I noticed the boot_b thing, so I did the following to do both partitions (although I have no idea if this is what you're supposed to do):
Code:
~/Downloads$ fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
target reported max download size of 805261312 bytes
sending 'boot_a' (12136 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.350s]
writing 'boot_a'...
OKAY [ 0.076s]
finished. total time: 0.425s
~/Downloads$ fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img
target reported max download size of 805261312 bytes
sending 'boot_b' (12136 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.370s]
writing 'boot_b'...
OKAY [ 0.214s]
finished. total time: 0.584s
No dice..
Next, I tried to just use the unpatched boot.img to restore things.
Code:
~/Downloads$ fastboot flash boot_a XT2041-4_SOFIA_RETUS_10_QPMS30.80-109-2_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml/boot.img
target reported max download size of 805259264 bytes
sending 'boot_a' (65536 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.908s]
writing 'boot_a'...
OKAY [ 0.696s]
finished. total time: 2.604s
~/Downloads$ fastboot flash boot_b XT2041-4_SOFIA_RETUS_10_QPMS30.80-109-2_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml/boot.img
target reported max download size of 805259264 bytes
sending 'boot_b' (65536 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.949s]
writing 'boot_b'...
OKAY [ 0.525s]
finished. total time: 2.474s
once again, no dice..this time I didn't even get to the lockscreen. Just stuck on the moto logo
Any idea what I've done wrong? Would really appreciate some help with this.
Update: I tried with the other boot.img from lolinet, doesn't get to lockscreen. Then I tried a factory reset with twrp, and flashing the earlier boot.img and I got to the setup screen, but still no touch.
Update 2: I managed to get omnirom flashed, and that's working so far! I am still curious to know why the touch screen issues popped up..will be useful next time I want to flash stock
check the forums for the g7 play, I've found topics about that kind of issue.
There's a few touchscreen vendors used for the same device, and they use different drivers basically.
Got a link by any chance? The ones I've seen are twrp related or because of the wrong firmware.
Any idea how to figure out which set is right for my phone?
Here is solution: get full ROM through LMSA and flash components through bootloader and fastbootd
* boot, recovery, dtbo, vbmeta, super flashed in fastbootd (adb reboot fastboot)
* All other actions done in bootloader (adb reboot bootloader)

Can this be done without fastbootd? i stupidly flashed twrp (which doesnt work). so I dont have stock recovery to get into fastbootd. Can this be done using regular fastboot?
Or any way to flash a stock rom using just fastboot? the rom i have does not have 'flash all' so im not sure what to do from here.
If you get the recovery image from lolinet, you can boot that (or flash recovery) and then enter fastbootd

Solution:
Flash everything ***except*** those flashed in fastbootd
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot reboot fastboot
The last resort: use LMSA rescue, but your phone will be wiped

when you say flash everything. is it just flashing the .img files? or literally everything?
Sorry, ive never had to manually flash before.

Ok. ive gotten into fastbootd but have no idea what to do now. I assumed it was like flashing with regular fastboot. but when i type commands like fastboot flash boot boot.img i get a failed result no such file or directory
Hello friend,
Did you ever resolve your issue with the touchscreen?
I've just down the same thing using Magisk. Everything was fine until I flashed the magisk.patched.img. The device booted up but the touchscreen doesn’t work no matter what.
Please let me know of your solution.
Thank you kindly.

hey did you fix it or something? i got the same problem, and idk what to do, can you help?
I never solved it.
In the end I was able to get a Moto G8 Plus that I was able to unlock the bootloader and root using Magisk.
