My Huawei Mate 10 got in a bootloop after installing Xposed Framework
It was on Android Oreo 8.0 rooted and bootloader unlocked
Lock state info:
FB LockState: LOCKED
USER LockState: UNLOCKED
Leaving the device to boot normally: HUAWEI logo then reboots.
Vol up+power: eRecovery mode … doesn’t work (wiped data and cache .. tried to download firmware through wifi .. nothing works). ... then tried this method it worked while downloading the firmware .. but after verifying the firmware then installing it when it gets from 0% to 1% it fails and a red exclamation mark appears. :crying:
Vol down + power: fastboot: always get: FAILED (remote: Command not allowed) ). even though the bootloader is supposed to be unlocked. :crying:
Vol up and down: download mode .. on USB: stuck at 5% … without USB connection to computer: nothing happens (a red exclamation mark appears).
The device has an SD card slot: I tried placing the UPDATE.APP in dload folder and pressed both volume buttons but nothing appeared .. did I do something incorrectly?
Here are more info:
product-model: ALP-L29
vendorcountry: hw/meafnaf
build-number: System 8.0.0.38(0310)

Please help.
thanks in advance
====================
FIXED: Thanks to Bordo_Bereli51 who wrote this post and thanks for Ante0 for recommending DC Pheonix and for taking a lot of his time explaining a lot of things to me privately. contacted both as promised.
How I fixed it (credits to Bordo_Bereli51 for the guide .. I only modified it a bit and added some info from my experience):
1- I purchased a 19 euro -3 days pass for DC Pheonix.
2- Download Firmware Finder and click the "Common Base" tab, then download a FullOTA-MF firmware (all 3 files) which is approved for installation ( I copied the "changelog" link and pasted it in the 6th icon at the top "Firmware Checker" and it returned "Firmware approved for install" I' was not able to repack other non approved firmwares).
3- extract UPDATE.APP from update.zip
4- run DC Phoenix program .. tap the "Standard" button in Update mode .. select "update" and choose the UPDATE.APP you just extracted.
5- let it flash everything successfully then redo step 4 again.
6- Here's the trick before it flashes anything ... as soon as you see "utilizing backdoor" (or something like that) open Task Manager and force close DC Phoenix (it has to be BEFORE flashing anything, otherwise you might get errors like:
"error: exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory"
and AFTER utilizing backdoor (so you can use fastboot commands)
7-Download HWOTA8_Mate10 , place the 3 files you downloaded in step 2 in the "repack" folder, and rename "update_data_full_public.zip" to "update_data_public.zip" and "update_full_*ALP-L29*_hw_*meafnaf*.zip" to "update_all_hw.zip". Then run "repack.bat" and wait for it to finish.
8- run "ota.bat" in "ota" folder.
9- When it flashes the recovery_ramdisk and kernel plug your usb cable out and Reboot to recovery by pressing volume up + power button
10- When the phone is in recovery now ADB works (in case you need to do things manually).
11- When this process also finishes, the command center will tell you to press enter, so it boots to erecovery, which will flash the files.
12- Now your phone is unbricked after the flash.
Do not forget to do factory reset by pressing again at boot: (power + volume up) and selecting (factory reset).
After boot allow (OEM Unlock) under (developer settings) or otherwise the FRP will still be locked but the phone will work.

My device used to be bootloader unlocked
But I always get "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)" for any fastboot command
I searched here and a lot of people had the same issue and they fixed it by relocking then re-unlocking the bootloader
I tried that .. relocked successfully but now I cannot unlock it again.
This is the current info from info.bat:
Lock state info:
FB LockState: LOCKED
USER LockState: RELOCKED
in fastboot mode it says:
PHONE Relocked

You need to enable OEM unlock in Settings-developer options. At least frp needs to say unlock else you won't be able to unlock or flash, at least not for free.
But since you can't boot you're pretty much limited to use dc unlocker/dc phoenix

Do you recommend that I use dc unlocker or dc pheonix or FunkyHuawei?

Dc phoenix is what you'll need, Mate 10 is not supported in DC Unlocker. (Though DC Unlocker made DC Phoenix)
You'd just want it to flash stock anyway.
And it's cheaper than FunkyHuawei... FH "only" cost 1 credit to flash, but minimum to buy is 5 credits which is $41.
FH is easier though as you'd only need to setup DNS, but it's up to you
HCU/DC Phoenix pass for 3 days is €19, and then you have unlimited usage.
If you need further help you can find me at the telegram group https://t.me/HuaweiMate
as it's easier to do it live than through messages.
There is a "DC Phoenix repair tutorial" if you google it, use Method 1. Basically you just download the firmware update zip you're on now (and hw data zip) from http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/ then extract update.app from it and select it in Phoenix, then extract update.app from hw data zip and select it as customization.
Alternatively you can downgrade to factory build using images from DC Phoenix (the build your phone came with) then update from there when you have a booting phone.

Thank you sooo much man. I really appreciate your help.

yeah the bootloop was fixed in beta4 (original comment by dev) which wasn't officially released to the channel when I installed it, so I didn't know about it until I got the bootloop.
Anyways, I just managed to fix my issue. I'll post about it now.

I bricked my Huawei Mate 10 too
Please help.. I also bricked my Huawei Mate 10 ALP-L29C636...
I installed the EMUI 9.0 on my device using the HWOTA8_Mate10 method which was successful. The EMUI 9.0 ROM was from FirmwareFinder: ROM version ALP-L29C636E2R1P8B108-log (9.0.0.108). I didn't have any issues at all but since Huawei Mate 10's EMUI 9.0 is still in Beta, I decided to switch back to the stable EMUI 8.0.
Here's where the problem started... Since I want to downgrade, I went ahead and downloaded the 3 needed files (update.zip, update_all_hw, update_data_public) from FirmwareFinder: ROM version ALP-L29C636B143 (8.0.0.143). I fired up HWOTA8_Mate10 and started the installation process. The first step was to boot to fast boot and then plug the device, after that, the software asked me to unplug the device and press volume+ and power button but the device won't boot to recovery anymore. The device is now stuck at "Your device is booting now..." I tried rebooting the device but it won't work. Tried to go to eRevovery to wipe cache/factory reset but it will go back to "Your device is booting now..." page. I tried reinstalling the recovery.img via fastboot and tried to boot to recovery mode again but it won't work anymore. I believe my device is now soft bricked . I can still boot to fastboot, I even tried fastboot flash system system.img which was successful but the device still won't boot. Please help how to recover my device. I think I went too far and now I don't know how to fix this issue.

Hold vol down as it goes through the next loop, and it will put you in bootloader. From there, you can go to fastboot mode and flash custom recovery. Then adb sideload, adb push a ROM, or load a ROM to the removable SD if you have a card reader you can connect to your computer. Then boot custom recovery and flash the ROM.

It means you are trying to run the RUU for another carrier version. What version do you have (this section is for AT&T) and what RUU are you trying to run?
How can I flash another recovery when the PC doesn't see it as phone. Tried two different cables . Once I get the PC to see the phone it should be ok . See the screen when the phone boots up.

Try the universal drivers from the link below.

The PC can see the phone, otherwise you wouldn't get the Model ID error message you indicated in the first post.
So no response if you type the following in command prompt?: fastboot devices
Fastboot and/or adb connectivity issues are rather common.
Another trick you can try, is to uninstall all HTC software (Sync and drivers) from your PC. Then connect the phone. DO NOT accept any prompts to automatically install drivers or Sync. Go to Device Manager, find the device, and pick the option to manually select the drivers, and pick the generic Android MTP device drivers.
Also try different USB ports. IN particular, if the ports are USB 3.0, that is known to cause issues (you may be able to disable the 3.0 drivers).
And if your PC is Win8.1, that is also known to be problematic.

Fastboot and adb connectivity issues are almost always a problem on the PC's side (ports, Win version, drivers, USB 3.0). Warranty replacement isn't going to help you.
I've given you a few suggestions on addressing the connectivity issues. You haven't indicated whether you have tried them yet, or not.
i tried your sugestions phone is showing up as HTC andriod device and running adb devices doesn't show anything. Not sure what else I can try , I am trying this on a windows 7 PC as windows 8 gave me so many issues .
@sguy156
So your running adb commands from c:\user .
I think your not navigating to adb properly.
I go to where adb and fastboot lives and Shift+right-click so I can open the cmd there
Thats what i did ran it from the location where adb and fastboot are installed same issues .
I hate to ask but do you have usb debugging on wile trying to use adb ?
Please keep an open mind as I'm trying to help ?
---------- Post added at 08:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 AM ----------
Try this out if you can't get anything going.order the cable and use a second rooted Android device (no drivers needed at a all)

I'm not trying to be rude but now that you have fastboot figured out I suggest you put the phone down in another room and start reading on what procedures to take next.
You learn the hard way by not looking in the "General section" where all the information is posted.
Yes you need the bootloader unlocked to push a custom recovery.

need help unbricking my phone

hey there!
i need some help here please!
i was trying to unlock my bootloader (using this guide) and it went all fine till step 17 (command "fastboot oem unlock-go"), it said i got no permission for unlocking. and now i'm stuck here. the only thing that works is fastboot mode. from there i can switch to adb using the reboot-to-edl-patch, but then i'm stuck again. device-manager shows device as usual (ports COM & LPT) and the red light is blinking, but command "adb devices" replies an empty list. tried "adb kill-server", replugging phone, rebooting computer, still the same.
so what can i do now?
thanks for helping!
Hi. You can install a fastboot rom in edl-mode with mi flash. I recomend a developer rom for this action. Then you can try the unofficial unlock from the start, but i recomend the official unlock.

sorry, forgot to say that miflash does not show the device after i selected the rom. i need to do something before i can flash via edl-mode. but what?
Make sure that you have the correct drivers installed on a 64bit machine, with driver signature off. And you cant get adb device list from there, so thats normal. Try to install the 7.1.8 fastboot rom that should work.
Well even m in a same situation.... as u said ur mobile is giving u red led blinks.. ..
And in device Manger ur fone is showed as Qualcomm 900E instead of 9008 and that's the reason adb couldn't list ur device
All u need to do is do a Google search - xiaomi deep flash cable

There is no problem with miui 8. You just have to follow the steps from this post: [Tips and Tutorials] Redmi Note 3 [ SnapDragon ] - Unlock the BEAST in Seconds!!! . Just google it, because i cant post links here... Make a efs partition backup before you proceed! With a bad flash you can lose your IMEI like lots on the forum did... I would say to unlock your phone with the official unlock. Good luck!

is there any other rom i could try to flash? not to unlock the bootloader afterwards, but to just unbrick my phone?
I would recomend to install a global developer rom for now. And unlock your bootloader with the official method.
---------- Post added at 07:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 PM ----------
Just install a developer ROM like you did before. Then you can decide what to do next. I would recommend to unlock your bootloader officially if you want custom ROMs on your phone.
good news: i finally managed to unbrick it!
flashing the fastboot 7.1.8 rom, and then flashing the original emmc_appsboot.mbn file via fastboot:
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash abootbak emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot reboot
during reboot holding volume-up + power and starting mi pc suite
..and suddenly it's unbricked!
so happy right now!
Glad to hear that.

The solution is here:
download the required files from the given link: [50mb]
https://mega.nz/#!1NhDTQoR!cP7vrchwswOfj3oHQ5saZ2d0JkcmunEn5pqyOcpZDoE
INSTRUCTIONS: [redmi note 3]
1. Get into fastboot mode. Charge the phone first. Hold the power button and the volume down button simultaenously.
2. If you can open your current rom, open developer options by clicking on the build no several times in the about phone menu in settings. and select allow oem unlocking and usb debugging.
3. if not leave it... go on and connect your phone to the PC while in fastboot mode.
BUT, before that: open Command prompt on your PC. (search it on the search box). right click on it and open it in administrator mode.
type in: bcdedit /set testsigning on
hit enter and restart your pc
(this is imp.)
4. open the zip file and extract the contents. open the boot edl mode folder and click the edl.bat file. allow it to run.
5. now screen will turn black, do not disturb it. Now flash the twrp by running flash twrp.bat from the 'flash TWRP' folder.
6. Now go to Unlock folder and run the unlock bootloader.bat file.
your phone will boot into the TWRP recovery mode automatically.
if it opens in chineese you select every tab and find the globe icon.
if the globe icon is found on any of the tab select it and change the language to ENGLISH.
wipe your system from the wipe tab:
Now download the latest CM13 SNAPSHOT BUILD ROM FOR YOUR REDMI:

and GAPPS:
http://opengapps.org/?api=6.0&variant=mini
do select the arm 64 version and mini one.
download from your pc and copy it to micro sd card. enter this card into you phone and go to mount in twrp.
mount the micro sd card storage.
select the zip file on the micro sd card from the install tab on twrp and flash it.
now go back and flash open gapps zip file.
now REBOOT to system. everything will work fine....

OnePlus X hard bricked

When i was updating the twrp i managed to hard brick my phone, it just shows the 1+ logo and "powered by android" when turned on. if i hold the power button and volume up it shows the cyanogenmod logo and "fastboot mod" and stays there. If i hold power button and volume down it just shows the 1+ logo without the "powered by android".
i followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3272108
completed all the steps but the installed program cant recognise my phone when i plug it in.
When its in fastboot mode logo i can see it in device manager under portable devices listed as "ONE E1001" (it has a yellow ! triangle next to it)
When i try to turn the recovery (powerbutton+volume down) where it shows just the 1+ logo with no "powered by android" i can see it in the device manager under android phone as "Android Bootloader Interface"
When i just turn it on where it does display "powered by android" i can see it same as in fastboot mode, as "ONE E1001" under portable devices, (a yellow ! triangle appears after some time too)
i tried a similar guide here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/tool-oneplusrecovery-tool-v1-0-restore-t2991851
did everything, i have like 5 driver now from all the guides, i think all of them work, i just cant manage to get the programs to realize when the phone is pluged in. Is it possible that something is still wrong with the drivers?
pls help );

You're talking about Cyanogenmod logo. What was on your phone before? What did you do exactly?
Are you sure you know how to use Fastboot?
"fastboot oem device-info" output?
And then explain precisely at what step you have error.

i had CM12 before i tried to upgrade, i managed to go through the entire first guide now, the CM logo isn't appearing anymore, now its the 1+ logo and below it "fastboot mode" the drivers were a problem after all
now im stuck at the new recovery that is installed and cant install the ROM from it, even my old one that i had before all of this (CM12) that i have on my sd card.
OK, so you flash something incompatible.
After CM13 or so, the bootloader have to be upgraded and then you have to use a version compatible with it.
First look with fastboot command I give if BL still unlocked.
Do you know how to use fastboot commands?

kind of, "fastboot oem device-info" output is

(bootloader) exec_console_unconsole: 0
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.011s
if i could install the twrp from here i could install the ROM too i think, is there a guide to do so while stuck like this?
"fastboot oem unlock" gives me
FAILED (remote: oem unlock is disabled)
finished. total time: 0.009s
i cant use adb commands, in the command prompt my computer doesent even see the device when i type "adb devices", i think its because oem, debuging, isnt turned on but i cant turn it on if i cant install a ROM and check it "on" in the settings of the androis OS.
all i can use are fastboot comands since my computer can see it as a fastboot device while not as a adb device. i have a bricked phone with a locked bootloader i think.
BL is locked so only solution is mega unbrick guide.
I never tried but oos 3.1.4 won't flash either...

i did the mega unbricked guide, this one ==> https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3272108
i have the recovery dom the guide installed but it cant install any ROMs or the twrp, im trying to install them over fastboot but it also cant be done because my device is locked and i cant flash anything remotely. I also cant use adb for some reason because the command prompt cant see my phone under "adb devices". is there anything i can install with that recovery? i just stuck, spent so much time and still nothing :crying:
i think adb devices dont show because usb debugging is not turned on, i dont know how it can be turned on without and actual operating system on the phone..

i did all the steps, all of them work, when the program finished downloading/instaling things on my phone it turned on my phone and it was tuck at the 1+ logo again. when i held the power button+volume down it went to the custom recovery that was installed from the program from the guide. that recovery cant do anything i tried to install a new ROM even the twrp but it always says it failed.
i thought the guide was suposed to install a operating system too but it didnt. now i only have the OnePlus recovery (from the guide) and nothing else. When i try to just turn on the phone (just the power button) its stuck in the 1+ logo. power button+volume up gets the 1+ logo and "fastboot mode" below it

You have to use the other. This mini tool is from dec 2015.
At last you should have OnePlus recovery + OOS.
Can you retry on an older computer (easier on win 7).
See if it works. At the end, try to fahs the OOS 3.1.4 zip from here :

You won't be able to unlock bootloader even if you have unlock code because of FRP. The only option is to use the DC Phoenix which uses some kind of backdoor - belive me, been there done that.
OK but maybe I can try... obtained my Serial via DC Phoenix... now only need the Product Idea when Dialing *#*#1357946#*#*. .... anybody can tell me please? :3

So I think the main problem is now I can't do anything on fastboot because Bootloader is relocked (Also OEM-Unlock isnt activated in [email protected]).... So I think the only thing I can restore my 400€ Phone is to backdoor unlock it.... DC-Phoenix without success. any ideas from the real pros? Would pay 50€ if your method would work to restore my phone :/

"Your device is corrupt. It cannot be trusted and will not boot."

Hello everyone,
I ran into this problem while trying to solve another.
The current state of my phone (h850):
On booting, I receive this message: "Your device is corrupt. It cannot be trusted and will not boot."
Fastboot is still accessible.
Download mode is not: holding the volume up button and connecting a USB cable presents me with the above message.
I can still access the "Factory data reset" dialog, but after selecting "Yes" twice it takes me to the above message.
[edit]:
fastboot getvar unlocked
unlocked: no
I tried unlocking the phone again using fastboot flash unlock:
Code:
fastboot flash unlock unlock.bin
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'unlock' (1 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.040s]
writing 'unlock'...
(bootloader) Error!!
(bootloader) Bootloader Unlock key write fail
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.080s
... so that sucks.
Any way to recover from this?
How the hell did I get here?
I had TWRP and LineageOS 14.1 installed. Lineage released a new update which I tried to install from the OTA-Update list. After rebooting, I ended up in TWRP, which did... nothing. So I tried rebooting, only to end up in TWRP again; there appeared to be no escape. Finally, I came across an answer on reddit (I'm not allowed to post outside links... it's on the LineageOS subreddit, post ID is 61nxs6):
for g5 the command are these:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/soc/624000.ufshc/by-name/misc
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/soc/624000.ufshc/by-name/fota

Try reflashing twrp.img in fast boot (see Autoprime's AIO post for instructions) then try booting into twrp - then at least you can wipe and flash a new stock/custom rom!
Best of luck!

Reflashing TWRP doesn't work as the device is somehow locked again:

It's my understanding that LGUP requires "download mode" to be active (which I cannot access, see first post). In any event, any mode that I can still reach (error message, factory reset, fastboot) does not cause the device to be visible to LGUP, even using Uppercut.

Thanks everyone for the help! Just to be thorough, I tried entering download mode for what felt like the 42nd time, and whaddaya know, it worked! So I'm currently in the process of returning to the point I was on before I tried that ill-fated update of LineageOS. Thanks again everyone!

To enter download mode:
Turned phone off by removing the battery
Reinserted the battery without the USB cable plugged in
Pressed volume up and kept it pressed
Reinserted the USB cable while still keeping volume up button pressed
(As I mentioned, this didn't work the first few times around and I don't know why. Apparently, persistence paid off.)
To reflash the stock ROM:
Google-searched for this phrase: lg firmware h850
Note: I'm not yet allowed to post links. Your results may vary. There was a result at a domain which includes the words "lg" and "firmwares". That one I chose. Hope that's vague enough.
Also note that there are other sources of this image, I'm sure I've seen something here on the forums.
Downloaded the image H85020i_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0628.kdz (I had trouble with an image version that was less than 20i (10c I believe). Again, your mileage may vary.)
Booted into Windows because (sigh) LGUP, which is used to flash the above image onto the device, is only available for Windows
Acquired UPPERCUT along with the correct version of LGUP and the latest drivers
Started UPPERCUT which in turn started LGUP
Note: this will only work with your device connected and in download mode.
Selected the image mentioned above (click the File path column of the BIN file row if I remember correctly), selected upgrade, started and waited
Had a cup of tea to calm me down after a day's work of messing with my phone
After the phone rebooted, I reset it to factory settings
(you may run into an issue here with a password that you're supposed to enter, don't remember what I did there but as far as I understand it entering it wrong enough times will factory reset your phone as well)
[Optional stuff from here on out I guess]
Unlocked the phone again (fastboot flash unlock unlock.bin)
Flashed TWRP again
Installed LineageOS again
Hope that helps, good luck with your phone!

Not sure what you mean. If you're wondering whether I lost that piece of information: no, it's printed on a sticker on the back of my phone. In general there's usually a sticker with your phone's IMEI somewhere on the packaging or, like in my case, on the device itself.

Note: I'm not yet allowed to post links. Your results may vary. There was a result at a domain which includes the words "lg" and "firmwares". That one I chose. Hope that's vague enough.
Also note that there are other sources of this image, I'm sure I've seen something here on the forums.
Downloaded the image H85020i_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0628.kdz (I had trouble with an image version that was less than 20i (10c I believe). Again, your mileage may vary.)
Booted into Windows because (sigh) LGUP, which is used to flash the above image onto the device, is only available for Windows
Acquired UPPERCUT along with the correct version of LGUP and the latest drivers
Started UPPERCUT which in turn started LGUP
Note: this will only work with your device connected and in download mode.
Selected the image mentioned above (click the File path column of the BIN file row if I remember correctly), selected upgrade, started and waited
Had a cup of tea to calm me down after a day's work of messing with my phone
After the phone rebooted, I reset it to factory settings
(you may run into an issue here with a password that you're supposed to enter, don't remember what I did there but as far as I understand it entering it wrong enough times will factory reset your phone as well)
[Optional stuff from here on out I guess]
Unlocked the phone again (fastboot flash unlock unlock.bin)
Flashed TWRP again
Installed LineageOS again
Hope that helps, good luck with your phone!

Again I did the same, bar the tea, but unfortunately my tale does not end quite so happily... Not yet at least. I can "upgrade" with literally no problems using LGUP and one of the few G6 KDZs available, but when it's time reboot my phone always boots into the fastboot for bootloader unlock mode. I can use fastboot commands but my bootloader relocked at some point and I'm still not able to unlock it again. No matter what I do my phone always boots to fastboot... Except when I do the recovery key combination and press "Yes" twice, in this case there's a brief "erasing" animation and then I'm back to fastboot.
I realize I'm using a different device, but would anyone happen to have any thoughts on this? This is my first time using a non-Nexus LG and I must admit I'm struggling a bit to get out of this mess. The recovery and fastboot modes also look quite bare to me, but I might just be using the wrong.
Cheers!

To enter download mode:
Turned phone off by removing the battery
Reinserted the battery without the USB cable plugged in
Pressed volume up and kept it pressed
Reinserted the USB cable while still keeping volume up button pressed
(As I mentioned, this didn't work the first few times around and I don't know why. Apparently, persistence paid off.)

Thank you for your detailed guide, but it didnt work for me yet. I tried maybe 100 times. Everytime the same Message "Your device is corrupted".
You are a life saver
Thank you for detailed tutorial.
My H850, which I managed to almost dead brick, like yours (of course from the same source - reddit ) after few minutes with uppercut + lgup ressurected with all the files and apps inside
So, after that I'm running through factory reset now and trying to unlock once again.
Thank you
Have the same problem but......

Hello everyone,
I ran into this problem while trying to solve another.
The current state of my phone (h850):
On booting, I receive this message: "Your device is corrupt. It cannot be trusted and will not boot."
Fastboot is still accessible.
Download mode is not: holding the volume up button and connecting a USB cable presents me with the above message.
I can still access the "Factory data reset" dialog, but after selecting "Yes" twice it takes me to the above message.
[edit]:
fastboot getvar unlocked
unlocked: no
I tried unlocking the phone again using fastboot flash unlock:
Code:
fastboot flash unlock unlock.bin
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'unlock' (1 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.040s]
writing 'unlock'...
(bootloader) Error!!
(bootloader) Bootloader Unlock key write fail
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.080s
... so that sucks.
Any way to recover from this?
How the hell did I get here?
I had TWRP and LineageOS 14.1 installed. Lineage released a new update which I tried to install from the OTA-Update list. After rebooting, I ended up in TWRP, which did... nothing. So I tried rebooting, only to end up in TWRP again; there appeared to be no escape. Finally, I came across an answer on reddit (I'm not allowed to post outside links... it's on the LineageOS subreddit, post ID is 61nxs6):
I tried those, and that's how I got here.

I've got this problem also, thanks to those lines put into 'terminal'.
I can get into download mode easily, however by the time I then open Uppercut and try doing anything the phone reboots itself back into the 'corrupt' screen and keeps looping on that.

Maybe unlock.bin is corrupted, try ask LG to resend the file.
