Stratos can't reboot into fastboot mode? - Amazfit

Hi. I have a Amazfit Stratos with stock CN firmware 2.0.34.2 and I can't seem to get it to boot into fastboot mode. Whenever I run "adb shell reboot bootloader" in CMD, the watch just reboots normally. The watch is recognized by my computer in device manager. Just trying to unlock the bootloader. Any ideas what I could try?
Thanks!

How about this? adb shell reboot fastboot
If that doesn't work, then try this. https://forum.xda-developers.com/sm...tches/amazfit-boot-fastboot-directly-t3546829

What does the code below do?
Code:
adb shell
reboot bootloader
You can always use manual mode, as it's explained in Anox link.

Hi guys sorry for the delayed response. Tried both suggested ADB commands and attempted a handful of times to manually enter fastboot mode (according to instructions in link) and in each case it just reboots normally. Is there a debug mode setting that needs to be toggled beforehand or something?
I've also tried using the Huami Amazfit Tool app to reboot it into fastboot mode and it still reboots normally.

Fastboot mode should always be accessible.
That tool & others basically use the same command to access fastboot mode.
The manual method is supposed to be the last resort. I now have no idea, sorry.

Have you found a solution yet? I have exactly the same problem.

If
Code:
adb shell reboot bootloader
does not work for you due to some reason, you can do it manually only: it uses the buttons and need some tries because it's tricky. It is the same process as Pace, search forum or YouTube for more info.

@vinny13 Did you solve your problem?
I have exactly the same problem.
When I try "adb shell reboot bootloader" the answer that appears is "- exec '/ system / bin / sh' failed: Permission denied (13) -
using port = 5555 "
Manually I've tried over 70 times and I don't know what else to do to get into this FastBoot ...
I think I was drawn!
Thanks for any help.

Using the button trick is the only way you have to enter into fastboot.

Thanks for your response, @Saratoga79. Has anyone seen any cases that the watch does not enter Fastboot or the button? I say this because the operating system of the clock was always crashing ... Now the only screens that appear to me are "A" and "No Command".
I will keep trying the button method. I confess it has been over 90 times.

Need help with bricked Redmi Note 3 Pro (Kenzo/Snapdragon)

Dear Community,
I got my Note 3 Pro Snapdragon Version today and I tried unlocking the bootloader, installing root and TWRP.
Unfortunately after I installed TWRP, WiFi didnt work anymore so I wanted to go back to where I was before.
i tried flashing the GlobalRom with the MiFlash Tool but somehow I'm now stuck with a bootloop.
The phone starts up and shows the MI Logo but doesnt go on. I tried booting TWRP temporarily via fastboot commands so that I can try to flash flashable zip files
but it doesnt let me execute "fastboot boot xyz.img" anymore because my device is locked.
I would really love to hear any solutions or ideas. I dont want any root or something anymore. If someone has an idea Im very happy!!!
thanks a lot in advance and tell me if you need any more infos
Paul/shisaya24
1. keep vol + and vol - pressed while connecting USB to enter adb mode
2. check if phone is connected with "adb devices" in command line, if phone shows up, enter "adb reboot edl"
3. now you can flash via MiFlash

First of all, HUGE thanks for your fast answer!
Unfortunately I couldnt get this to work. Since I am stuck at the Logog screen here is what I tried:
Pressing both volume buttons while Logo Screen and plugging USB.
Pressing both colume buttons while fastboot screen is up.
These two didnt enter adb mode, I guess because of the bootloop I'm in
I also tried antering recovery mode with volume up + power button. Pressing both volume buttons didnt help either but when I am in recovery like that it shows my device in adb as "sideload" device.
Maybe that helps ? Can you give further advice or am I doomed?
My idea would be: Is it possible to reflash the device completely only usinf fastboot? The only thing I seem to be able to enter is fastboot...
Is there a way from fastboot to "working phone" ?
or maybe through the "adb sideload" state?
thanks a lot in advance!
Paul
EDIT
tried installing via "adb sideload xyz.zip" command but after shortly showing a status bar on phone screen it aborted and said "Total xfer: 0.00x" on PC screen .
Also: I read "adb reboot edl" brings you to download mode so you can flash something. Tried it but the phone just rebooted the normal system, so it stuck on Logo again...
search miui forum for unbrick, there is 2 or 3 method without opening your device
exp: http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=257227
Unfortunately they all do not work because they always require either a phone in download mode, and i only get to fastboot and adb sideboard or they require flashing something via fastboot but I can't do that either because it says my device is locked if I try...
Any suggestions how to flash a ROM with fastboot only or with adb sideload?

I've been facing the same (or a similar?) problem about a week ago but managed to get out. Knowing me for having a head like a sieve I made some notes, sadly quite rudimentary
Did you try to flash with MiFlash after "adb reboot edl"? If I remember rightly after "adb reboot edl" you got the logo like booting another way, but the light is blinking red. Then I could flash via MiFlash.
I'm quite sure that if you get a "reboot" after entering "adb reboot edl", your phone will be in edl mode.
I will try that this evening when I am at home again and report. Thanks

Do you have another idea? :/
How did you unlock the bootloader, via official permission or that unofficial hack?

I didnt use the official way :/ Im so hoping my phone isnt broken. I wish i owuld have been more patient

Only options you have right now are:
1) using test points method which is a but cumbersome and voids warranty if you care about that.
2) go to a xiaomi service center of you have any nearby.
It is hard bricked.
So there is absolutely no option to unlock bootlader via adb sideload or fastboot ?

Apparently, no! Whenever using unofficial methods, read precautions carefully and you missed all as I can see. Wait if someone can help you out.

That sounds nice and easy. I already applied for official unlock.
But: do you know if u can use the official unlock now? I can only access fastboot and adb sideload mode. Is it possible to activate official unlock from there? Or do I need a working ROM rather?
I would have thought that official unlock doesn't work from fastboot /adb sideload...

I have the same problem. I made the same mistakes as shisaya24. I have followed every procedure for unbricking and nothing works. I even applied for an unlock code and got it from Xiomi. I used their mi-unlock app which requires fastboot (pwr/vol-) but it gets to 50% and bombs out. It states it can't verify the phone. Can anyone please help me??

Lg l9 need help

Hey guys, I just got LG l9 from my friend but it is (I am afraid, not knowing much about mobiles) bricked.
When I turn it on it says:
-------------------------------------
Secure booting unsuccessful!
Cause:
-------------------------------------
and after that it turns off. If I charge it it turns on and shows battery charging. At combination of Volume+, power button it goes in Recovery mode.
It shows "This mode is for data backup service center. After removing and reattaching battery, press power key to reboot and keep using phone" and from there I can't do anything, just able to take out battery.
If I try combination of Volume-, power button it shows little android and loading bar, after few sec it restarts and shows booting unsuccessful.
I am not sure what he did with it, but pretty sure he rooted it. Is it possible to fix it, hope someone will provide me some help
Thanks !
It is possible to fix, you need to unbrick it. Find the stock rom for your device and find a good tutorial on how to flash em. Good luck!
Thanks for the reply ! I found everything I need, but I got problem - cant enter download mode. On combination of Volume+ and plugging cable I get S/W Upgrade, and on combination Volume+&- and plugging cable I get nothing. Any ideas how to get in that download mode? Thanks!

Try that, then in adb, type adb devices and see if your pops up, if not, try fastboot devices. If it popped up in adb, you can sideload the zip file, if on fastboot, you can flash it.

Thanks for your patience and answers! Problem is I cant reach emergency-mode. I always get S/W Update. Under adb devices I can see my phone in recovery mode (was thinking maybe emergency=recovery mode). I tried sideload, it starts loading but after some time I get error:closed. I tried doing adb usb before as well but gave no results.: . Any other ideas? Is there any way to "make" phone run ROM from SD card (in recovery mode can't navigate anywhere like I can on my other phone).
Again thanks for your help and time!

If it sees your phone as recovery, you can be rescued! Run adb shell and once the shell has popped up, type ls and if you see the phone structure of directories, you can exit the shell and push the file from your pc to your phone. But before you push, I want you to try to run adb reboot-bootloader and see if fastboot recognises it.

I think I am making some progress. First on adb reboot-bootloader my phone reboots into secure booting unsuccessful, same as before. On the adb shell/ls I get to see cache, charger, data, default.prop, dev, etc, system, temp and lots of other things. I guess that are directories we are looking for. But when I go adb push filename.zip /data/media I get failed to copy filename.zip: Permission denied. Guess nothing can work at first, sorry

This gets complicated, I found xloader and uboot, but problem occurs when I try to install fastboot drivers, says third party doesn't contain digital signature information??

Amafit Pace A1602 bricked with Stratos FW

Hello,
I accidentally flashed a Stratos firmware on my Amazfit Pace 1. Blame on me !
But since I cannot unbrick it.
I can boot in fastboot bootloader thank to thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/amazfit-boot-fastboot-directly-t3546829,
but I cannot boot into recovery with command :
> fastboot boot Amazfit-mod-recovery.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
FAILED (remote: ED: The command is not allowed.)
finished. total time: 0.063s
Can anybody provide help ?
Thanks in advance
The error message is because bootloader is locked. If you don't have root access nor unlocked bootloader, I guess the only option is trying to use Ingenic's "cloner" tool to flash the firmware directly (use option 2 instead of 1 to enter "force erase"). You should flash an old firmware with unlocked bootloader first, check if serial number is OK (if now, fix it using the info in the thread about fixing a null SN) then update.
PS: Do NOT enter "force erase" without having everything set up correctly because the watch won't leave this mode until you flash it.

On Windows use:
Code:
adb wait-for-device & adb shell reboot bootloader
and on Linux/macOS:
Code:
adb wait-for-device; adb shell reboot bootloader
and watch will enter fastboot mode as soon as adb is detected (you can type the command and adb will wait for the device, as the words say, then issue the second one).
adb shell does not work, I get following message :
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Exec format error (8) -
using port=5555
enter fastboot using this method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlXoeq30vM0 and check the correctness of the serial number and the bootloader lock

Your system is messed up... You can go to fastboot mode manually, then try to flash the correct kernel (boot.img) and recovery from fastboot... this my fix your serial number and show locked status as unlocked again. If everything fails, your last resource is the cloner tool I mentioned a few comments before.

Amazfit Stratos - can't enter fastboot

Hello, I have an Amazfit Stratos (details attached as a screenshot from AmazMod app) and I have a problem entering fastboot (I want to unlock the bootloader and start having fun with the watch )
What I've already tried:
- standard ADB mode, the watch is recognized and seen in ADB, but when I enter adb shell reboot fastboot - it just reboots back to the usual OS...
- the All In One Tool available on XDA - the same issue - watch is recognized but when I click reboot to fastboot - it just boots up normally...
- manual method described on the forum and shown on youtube - the issue is, when the screen goes dark I'm supposed to wait 4 seconds before releasing the power key - and my watch shows up the Amazfit logo after 2 seconds - the whole bootup process is different than on the video - I've been at it for 2 hours and did not manage to get it to fastboot once
- I've also tried using the AmazMod app - there's a section there that allows you to send direct commands to the watch shell - I've tried reboot fastboot and the watch also reboots back to the standard OS
- I tried the method with adb kill-server / adb start-server / adb wait-for-device and then rebooting the watch (method found on the forum as well) - no cigar.
I'm getting desperate - I wanted the stratos mostly because of the awesome job devs do making it better - now I'm left with the stock watch and to be honest I think Huawei Watch GT would be better for my needs if I'm comparing stock vs stock...
Did anyone have any similar issues?
Anyone? Getting desperate and still no solution in sight...
AmazMod widget also has a "Reboot to fastboot" option, but it is the same as the adb command, I think you are using the wrong command, the correct one is:
Code:
adb shell reboot bootloader
and not "reboot fastboot". Manually always works too, if watch turns on (you can see Amazfit logo) and button isn't broken.
Yeah I've tried both reboot fastboot and reboot bootloader with the same non result

You must use exactly the same commands as I wrote, "adb reboot bootoloader" does not work.
ADB method just causes the watch to reboot regularly... Nobody is able to help?
If the adb command doesn't work for some weird reason, then the only way is doing it manually. It is very trick, but it works. You may want to flash a stock ROM first, as it is the only explanation why "adb shell reboot bootloader" does not work for you...
I do have a stock rom since I haven't been able to unlock bootloader (because I can't enter fastboot) - manual entry is not working, as I've mentioned my watch is acting differently than the watch presented in the YouTube video... I'm stuck
Did you try to facttory reset yet?
Code:
adb reboot wipe
OK so I finally managed to get the watch to fastboot mode, manual method is still not working, but after a factory reset and TOTAL removal of ALL adb drivers (total wipe of any adb/fastboot drivers from Win10) - it finally worked using the All In One Tool from the forum. This can be closed now. Thanks for all the suggestions - I'm not sure if the factory wipe helped or the Win10 drivers wipe - but it works I'm on to bigger and better things

Why is fastboot rebooting the phone automatically?

I am trying to root my OPPO A72. After successfully configuring the adb and USB Debugging I was trying to fastboot it using 'adb reboot bootloader', because 'adb reboot fastboot' reboots it to recovery, which I do not want. After rebooting the phone using 'adb reboot bootloader' for half a second there is chinese text with the text 'FASTBOOT', then it just reboots the phone into android. The OEM Unlocking option does not help. Any ideas why that is / how to fix?

The A72 cannot be rooted at the moment.
with phone on if you enter adb reboot fastboot , it takes you too a screen similar to the recovery screen but you can access phone by fastboot devices etc ... BUT it's a very limited fastboot and hardly any use at all , and will not allow you to unlock bootloader.
