LG G5 H830 adb issues

So straight to it, when I am trying to flash twrp recovery img with adb I keep getting failed (remote:unknown command) .
Process I have done;
Turned on oem unlock and debugging in developer otions
Unlocked boot loader via adb with fastboot oem unlock
Rebooted and got corruption msg but thats due to bootloader unlock
Put twrp in adb folder
Rebooted into fastboot
attempted to flash twrp recovery img via fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Then thats when I get my error as follows;
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (19412 kb) ...
okay [0.443s]
writing 'recovery' ...
failed (remote: unkown command)

Did I miss a step? I was reading something about a "fake" bootloader unlock besides h850?? I did achieve root with a tot file and lg up that did have already twrp baked in, but I need to get a stock rom so I can go ahead and switch between root and non root, cause I use an application for work that doesn't like root
i know this is an old post but i'm having the same issue. is it not possible to flash recovery with latest firmware?
same

Help please?????

Hi all,
Today I tried to root my LG G5 H830 but with an older method for Marshmallow(in the video i was watching the version wasn't even specified so I was unaware and I believed that the version of the phone did not really matter). I proceeded to follow this man's instructions @: "How to Root T-Mobile LG G5!" by "Max Lee" on Youtube(as a new user i cannot post links ) I unlocked my bootloader, got drivers and followed his instructions up onto an error on LGUP. Basically the error's purpose was to tell me that Nougat is not supported. So I had no choice but to reboot my phone and go through the android initializing setup.
After realizing the error of my ways I then found this post here via Google Search: "Install TWRP Recovery and Root LG G5 on Android Nougat | DroidViews" to install TWRP. Now my bootloader is unlocked and I have no root. The only problem here is that whenever I go into developer options and try to toggle 'OEM unlock' on it won't let me. The OEM unlock setting is grey-ed out and I am unable to toggle it!! This is what I need help with! Although my bootloader is very much infact unlocked I think some error occurred to where now I cant toggle my OEM unlock thus I am unable to flash a TWRP recovery via fastboot!
If I reboot into my bootloader and run the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" i get this:
Code:
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (18668 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.419s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.435s
I even ignored the error and tried to boot into recovery manually and i just get the stock recovery.
Please help me guys
What about locking the bootloader again and unlocking it after that with the newer video you used?

First, in TWRP, advance wipe everything! Now, you need a pc, connect the phone to PC with a USB, on pc, download any ROM you want (and gapps if you want) now transfer the files to your phone and then flash them, izi,
Thumbs up if I was useful.

Try reinstalling stock firmware trough download mode...
Try reinstalling the twrp image. Helped me once

Bricked my Mate 10 lite (RNE-L21) with wrong twrp

I am new here and this was my first time actually trying any of this. I have my bootloader code, if that helps.
Phone turns on to erecovery mode if powered on normally. Running erecovery downloaded and installed RNE-L21 8.0.0.355(C185). It then asked me to Factory reset, after which it booted back in to erecovery. I can put phone in FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE by plugging it in to PC and holding power + vol. down.

I wanted to downgrade from Oreo to Nougat.
To unlock bootloader, I used Potatonv:

I installed the TWRP in this post:

Here is twrp for HUAWEI MATE 10 LITE. Who want? Comment Here. :p

I booted in to TWRP with
-code
adb reboot recovery
I made a backup using TWRP but I lost it and couldn't make another one because of some error in TWRP.
I then installed magisk .zip file through TWRP.
The phone would boot in TWRP no matter which option I chose in the Reboot menu of TWRP. Being really impatient, I decided to flash another version of TWRP on recovery partition, with SD card, through TWRP itself. I got this 2nd TWRP from:
How to Install TWRP Recovery and Root Huawei Mate 10 Lite
In this article, we will guide you on how to root Huawei Mate 10 Lite and Install TWRP Recovery.
clickitornot.com
The new TWRP doesn't work and phone does not show bootloader unlocked warning anymore. Upon rebooting after new TWRP, phone showed this error first few times.
I'm not really sure what to do but I figured I'd run some commands that might help someone figure out what I should do.

You can downgrade to Nougat using two methods :
1. Via HiSuite
2. Using HuRupdater tool & TWRP. Unfortunately, this method needs Firmware Finder and Huawei servers are offline. So via HiSuite only.
Don't try downgrade to the lower android version via dload method flashing service ROM (aka full stock firmware), it may brick your phone.

Error on fastboot boot/flash TWRP

Hi everyone!
I want to install TWRP on a P20 Lite with the main goal to install LOS16 and possible other custom ROMs. Therefore I was following the official guide on LOS.
However when I try to boot/flash the TWRP image-file with fastboot i receive the following error:
Problem
Code:
$>fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Sending 'recovery' (14946 KB) OKAY [ 0.396s]
Writing 'recovery' FAILED (remote: 'partition length get error')
fastboot: error: Command failed
$>fastboot boot twrp.img
Sending 'boot.img' (14946 KB) OKAY [ 0.376s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'invalid command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Error is shown in admin command line as well.
Furthermore I get the following error which let me think that it is more of a fastboot problem.
Code:
$>fastboot getvar version
getvar:version FAILED (remote: 'invalid command')
$>fastboot oem device-info
FAILED (remote: 'invalid command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Specs
Phone: Huawei P20 Lite ANE-LX1
Build:9.1.0.377(C432E7R1P7)
EMUI-Version 9.1.0
Bootloader unlocked - PHONE Unlocked, FRP unlocked (via PotatoNV method with same adb/fastboot installation).
Adb:
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41
Version 30.0.5-6877874
Info
Same error with adb/fastboot from two different PCs (Win10). Adb and fastboot seem to work in general. For example both show the device in List of devices attached and i can reboot and boot via adb and fastboot.
As I understand this post it is not possible to flash twrp directly on android 9.
However I tried the twrp file linked in the mentioned post and several images linked in this forum (this, this) + the one from twrp-anne and got the same error fastboot: error: Command failed on all.
Does anybody know or has a hint what might be the problem? Any help appreciated.
Best regards
I had the same issue.
You have to use the command: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img

- eRecovery and Recovery are two different things .
That worked!
Thank you very much. Both of you for the fast answer
I am currently researching before asking more noob questions. Have some thoughts. Especially on difference between eRecovery and Recovery and why commands as fastboot oem device info where not working before the recovery_ramdisk. Might return later.
Thx!
