vol up worked.
thanks
I have entered "adb reboot fastboot" but it only reboot to the system but not reboot to the bootloader.
I have already selected the option about OEM unlock in the developers settings page.
4 me too...
I got there by hitting enter and immidiately pressing the vol up
I got a question:
I guess the pc doesn't recognize my device... But it turns out 4 other pcs don't neither...
Every time i get to bootloader, entering the code 'fastboot oem unlock' in the command window, and all it does is waiting for the device....
What should i do? It drives me crazy

Now we can only wait for the emergence of experts
I am very new to this, I rooted my Moto G4 and now I need to download SUHide in order to play Pokemon Go. When I try to enter recovery via my fastboot/abd folder I get a < waiting for any device > message. When I hold down the power + volume down button my phone just turns on as normal without entering bootloader even though my bootloader is unlocked. I tried downloading an app that loads recovery for me but when I tried that I got a "no command" screen with a little green robot.
From what I've read, it's possible I didn't flash my trwp properly? I don't know how this is possible since I just rooted my phone. I would appreciate some help, I'm afraid to take any random guesses at the risk of ruining my phone. Sorry if I'm missing something obvious or not giving enough info, I'm not very tech savvy.

Try power plus volume up button to go to fastboot mode.
If it not working then connect your android to pc and enable adb. Type "adb devices" enter then type "adb reboot bootloader" and enter. It boots your android in fastboot mode.
If adb commands not working then install adb and fastboot drivers and try again.

In most devices, volume up + power boots up the recovery options, volume down + power boots the device into fastboot mode (volume buttons first plus power, pressing power button first would boot the device normally).

How did you install the custom recovery? Try flashing the recovery.img again (I'm guessing, since you have root, that you did not "flash" (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) TWRP but just "boot" (fastboot boot recovery.img) it and installed SuperSU).

Okay, so that did work, and I was able to enter fastboot mode. However, once I scrolled down to "recovery mode" and tried to enter, I got the same "no command" screen.

I used the official moto g4 root guide on this website to root my phone and I'm pretty sure I booted, not flashed, the recovery img (mine is named twrp-3.0.2-0-athene). So, I tried using the command you provided to flash the recovery img and I got a < waiting for any device > message in the command prompt. My phone is plugged in and my recovery img is in the adb / fastboot folder. Any idea what this means? Thank you for the help guys
edit: If it helps to know this, my phone has usb debugging enabled and it is recognized by my pc. I type adb devices and my moto g4 serial number does indeed show up.

If you are trying to flash twrp recovery on your android then rename your twrp to recovery.
Boot your android in fastboot mode,
Navigate to folder that you have recovery. Press shift and right click and click on open command here and type "fastboot devices" and enter
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
It flash your recovery to your android.

Did all that, getting:
(bootloader) slot-count: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
(bootloader) has-slot:recovery: not found
error: cannot load 'recovery.img'
Also, per the suggestion of other users on these forums, I tried to hold down power and press volume up during the "no command" screen after attempting to enter recovery. That sent me into Android Recovery but it's not the twrp platform I used when originally rooting my phone.
How did you unlock the bootloader? have you tried: fastboot oem unlock?
You need to "allow oem unlocking" on developer options (which I guess you already did). Then reboot in bootloader: (a) adb reboot bootloader. In fastboot, you need to unlock the bootloader first: (b) fastboot oem unlock (or unlock-go). Then you can try to flash that recovery.img: (c) fastboot flash recovery "name of the file.img"
edit: fastboot oem unlock restores the device to factory settings. You need to configure and enable again "usb debugging" and "oem unlocking" (which are disabled by default). You can then proceed to fastboot flash
I'm trying to unlock the bootloader in my LG k410g, i open the ADB screen and i run the commands to restart in fastboot mode, and when i run the command "fastboot oem unlock" it shows the confirmation screen asking to press the Vol + but when i press it does not work, i have been reading some threads and i just found one saying that some devices have the bug when opening the fastboot from ADB the vol + it's not working, but i tried one of the solutions i found that was to open fastboot connecting the usb cable while pressing vol -, but none of the volume keys work neither. is there any other way to unlock bootloader? or any other way to press vol + via adb(sounds crazy but, i don't know)?.
Specs:
Lg k410g
Processor MT6582
Greetings,
I haven't seen this method discussed, so I'm posting it here for any of you that may need an alternative way to grab your phone's serial number besides booting into the OS fully. One example of this scenario: You restarted the phone and forgot that Android already downloaded and is going to try and install a newer OS on the next boot. There's a whole bunch of reasons one may find themselves hesitant to boot into normal or safe mode, so here's a way to grab the serial from fastboot without using an IMEI lookup:
To enter fastboot AKA Download mode:
Cable plugged in (either power or to host machine)
Volume Down + Power key for a few seconds until you feel the vibration.
Remove finger from Power, but keep holding Volume Down.
[You should now be in fastboot mode, aka "Download mode". It has a barcode with your IMEI in it.]
If you then connect your phone to a machine with adb and fastboot, you should be able to type:
fastboot getvar serialno
or, you'll probably like this one better, which includes the serial number in addition to a few pages of details.
fastboot getvar all
This trick probably works on all phones, now that I think about it, but I haven't tried
Hope this helps someone!
Peace
Hi,
i had motherboard issue on renoir, so i replaced an empty locked motherboard. Now i cant flash from fastboot because its locked, and i must enter in edl mode, but i cant reach it, even shorting pins. I dont have windows PC and i emulate it. Usually emulation works, emulated machine see my device when in fastboot. i tryed also vol +/- toghether but nothing, and 'fastboot oem edl' when in fastboot, but i get 'edl token verify failed'.
Any help appreciated
