searched a lot but couldnt find a tutorial for canvas 4
pls help
why do you need to unlock bootloader ?
can you explain why do you need to unlock bootloader
as im MY KNOWLEDGE i don't think it is needed at all!
Hello guys, sorry because may be this is the 50th time someone ask this question but the situation change every day. Yesterday I won from lottery and decide to go from G3 to G4. My model is European H815, I want to ask you can I root G4, change the recovery and e.t.c. without unlocking the bootloader? And also if I unlocked it is their any way to locked it again or to use my warranty? Thank you!!
well you can only root using low effort root(google it or find it here ) But to change recovery you have to unlock bootloader
No there is no way confirmed to relock your bootloader
GOOD LUCK
Thank you! If I root by this way and download Flashify and try to change recover what will happen ? Thank you!
without bootloader unlocked nothing will chnage ( recovery wont be installed ) and when you reboot your phone it will get u error (authentication error #9) as i remember and you will have to flash new firmware using lg flash tool 2014 so i dont recommend you do so
if u wanna change recovery unlock ur bootloader
you are welcome anytime
I did not get it, I hope you can light me up:
1. Doing root using low effort root means rooting without unlocking bootloader? (because I flew over the thread and did not read anything about it)
2. If I do unlock Marshmallow's bootloader, what happens when I downgrade to Lollipop via flashing proper KDZ? (I would guess that the unlocked bootlader will be overwritten!? So flashing Marshmallow again would end up in a locked bootloader, doesn't it?)
thanks
You can root lollipop without unlocking bootloader but with marshmalow you can't, you have to unlock the bootloader.
You need an unlocked bootloader for custom recovery.
Bootloader unlocking is a one way operation , you can't go back.
My phone need firmware but spflashtool error 2005 my phone bootloader lock not unlock root not work help please

What do you mean active bootloader? Did you mean locked bootloader? How did you manage bricking device with locked bootloader anyway?

Im trapped in the start loop, and i want to try active bootloader to flash the phone. I think its a soft brick that could be fixed installing a new ROM. I already tried by EDL mode but is necessary a authorized Mi Account to do this :/
My device suddenly got stock at bootloop
I entered into fastboot and recovery mode
And there are options like frp locked
Phone locked
I don't know what to do!
Bootloader is locked!
Can anyone help me please!!!
