Bootloader locked, cannot enable OEM - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
long story short: I have no OS installed on my LG G4 (H815) and get the "This device is not trusted and will not boot" screen when trying to boot normally. I have Android N bootloader. I can get to fastboot and download mode, but:
I cannot flash anything through fastboot as I don't have OEM enabled and I cannot enable it since I have no Android on the phone
LG UP stops at 23% (or 11%) of uploading full, new OS when the phone is in the Download Mode. The device is connected to a proper port reported as COM3.
LG Flash Tool doesn't work at all, maybe I'm using it wrong way?
"fastboot devices" reports the device connected correctly
"fastboot getvar unlocked" gives me a simple "no". I had the bootloader unlocked before, I have no idea what happened, I only did a factory reset from that time (and that caused the loss of system, too...)
Is there anything I can do to unbrick this phone? I couldn't find anything to match my problem so I'm writing here. If anything is unclear or you need more info just ask, please.
EDIT: Found my solution in this post. Thread can be closed, I hope that this solution will work for everyone.

[Q] Broken from update to Lollipop (stuck in fastboot)

I've seen some other people with this problem, but there have been no fixes.
The problem is that the phone was updated to Lollipop. It worked for a little bit, but after a couple of minutes lots of programs started force quitting, and it eventually turned off.
When it turns on, it takes about 20 minutes, and then goes into fastboot mode.
If I try to get into download mode, it stays on download mode for around 15 seconds, and then it continues into fastboot mode. Windows does not recognize the phone in download mode, so I can't restore anything from there.
What I have learned then is that I need to flash the laf.img file, which I got from download the official firmware from LG's website by inserting my IMEI, so it's the right version, and then trying both fastboot flash laf laf.img, as well as fastboot
boot laf.img. The problem is that they both fail writing, but it's not just that command. I can't do fastboot erase recovery, or fastboot erase anything, only thing that works is fastboot reboot.
Does this mean that the internal storage is broken? Is there anything else I can do? I can execute fastboot commands, but it seems like I cannot write anything. The drivers seem to be working, as it's recognized as a fastboot devices, but it only says
? fastboot devices
All commands result in a error(failure or something like that. I've removed the SD card as well, as I heard that might cause problems. As far as I know, I need to flash the laf.img to get into download mode, and from there on can flash via kdz.
Help please? This kind of sucks..
When you write a command, does it show on the phone?
You might need to change the driver in device manager. Look for "Android", update driver, browse my computer..., let me pick from a list, and here you'll see 3 different drivers, what you want is "Android bootloader interface"
hi
Hi dear frends.
Its sad to know that all you guys cant go to download mode or facing security error or stuck in lg logo or in fastboot mode
And some guys stuck qhsuab bulk 9008
So the solution is here.
If you are unable to get into download mode then you need to force your g3 into qhsusb bulk mode by shorting the test point.
I will help u all guys.....
I will help u to unbrick ur any lg model wothout download mode or stuck in 9008 or anytype of problem.
Please let me know your problem in pm.

Lg h815 bootloader unlock issue

Hello i have tried many times to unlock my lg g4 bootloader but every time i have tried i get towards the end (fastboot flash unlock unlock.bin) its says "waiting for any device" although i have installed and updated every single driver required its keeps giving me the same problem
any help would be awesome:good:
Hi, did You try this tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/tool-universal-fastboot-adb-tool-t3475834 ?
Are you sure that you are in fastboot mode on your phone? That you have "unlock OEM" marked in development tools?
Check that you do not accidentally enter bootloader mode.
Greetings
Same issue here, and "unlock OEM" cannot be activated on the device Developer mode.
This issue is with a "H815 20o" (MM 6.0 as stock rom, refurbished Ali/Ebay model from China).
So no access to Fastboot (but device is detected by Adb with "Adb devices" command).
And flashing many KDZ or TOT files with LGUP or LG Flashtool always end up with a fail/error message at 9% of the process.
(And LG Bridge doesn't update anything too : "your phone is up to date"...)
If somebody got any solution... Cheers.

MOTO G6 - Qualcomm - EDL Mode

Hi,
I'm after some advice, how do I place the Moto G5 in Qualcomm mode or EDL mode.
I have entered the bootloader by holding down and turning the phone on, this allows me to use fastboot.
From there I can scroll down to QCOM, but when I press the power button it boots into the normal system instead of EDL mode.
I have also attempted from within fastboot to use:
fastboot oem edl
fastboot oem qcom-on
fastboot reboot emergency
and
fastboot reboot-edl
Although non of these have been sucessful.
I also have access to an EDL cable, although, when I plug the phone in, then flick the switch 10 seconds later, it does not enter EDL mode, it just charges.
The phone sometimes shows as File Storage Linux USB Gadget in device manager, although it is inaccessible, I have updated the laptop to use the qualcomm drivers, although I don't think it will ever recognise it if I can't put the phone into qualcomm mode to begin with.
Any help would be much appreciated.
What are you actually attempting to do?
This mode is generally used to unbrick a device but you have access to the bootloader/fastboot mode and you wouldn't use edl mode to unbrick this device anyway
It's also used on some device to unlock the bootloader but again you wouldn't do that with this device
So without knowing what you are trying to achieve I can't give you any advice
Technically if you start the phone normally then enable usb debugging in dev options then connect phone to PC and in a terminal window where you have adb set up type
adb reboot edl
Not all devices support this mode though and I've no idea if this one does

Without going into too much detail as to why, there are tools I have access to which can be used to take a full back up of the entire memory block of the phone when it is in Qualcomm mode.
I cannot access adb on the device to use "adb reboot edl" so I am limited to either trying to activate Qualcomm using a button combination or via fastboot, unless you can advise another way.
Any help or a point in the right direction would be much appreciated.

It's not dodgy, but I fully understand.
Thank you anyway.
try fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem ​​reboot-edl (it's working for LENOVO ZUK Z1 and ZUK Z2)
You can try (if you can/have the TWRP image) to flash TWRP and in reboot options select EDL.
In case the bootloader isn't unlocked you can also use fastboot boot [TWRP image name] to boot directly into TWRP without flashing and then repeat, go into reboot options and select edl.
Not sure if it works for you, if it does let me know that I have helped!

I need help too. So, I own a Moto G5s plus sanders. I unlocked its bootloader the day I got it. Didn't keep any backup and rooted it. I Also installed dot os based on android 11. But my 4G Volte connection was finicky. So, I decided to use a Volte zip patch. But, anyways I flashed the zip via TWRP and tried to reboot. But the phone didn't turn on after that. After a few minutes to my shock I understood that I hardbricked my mobile. No button combos, nothing worked. Anyways in my desperation I found a YouTube video showing the use of blankflash to revive a phone and lo and behold I used the procedure to again restore my device. It booted to the fastboot interface. But my happiness was short lived. My baseband was unknown at this point and the bootloader was I dunno downgraded to 0.5 inplace of 2.12. But, more importantly the unlock status was lost. I unlocked it again and all went well. I could even flashed TWRP. but then I realised I couldn't upgrade my bootloader. I couldn’t do anything. It's always gives a "security downgrade", "preflash validation failed" and "permission denied" error. I even tried RSA official rescue tool from Lenovo but even it was unsuccessful. It was never unsuccessful before that. Not even with a unlocked bootloader. I researched for days and tried custom ROMs. I flashed stock images. Nothing brought back my baseband and IMEI. When I type "fastboot oem unlock critical" it gives me permission denied error with a message. "Need OEM signed bootloader." I think the blankflash bootloader is the root of all evil. I need to change it and therefore I need to enter the edl mode. I have tried all adb commands and fastboot commands. The phone reboots okay after those commands but never goes into edl mode whatsoever. I am also ready to do a controlled hardbrick of my device to go into the edl mode so that I can use my device again with a proper bootloader and a properly working fastboot. Please help

Sorta/Kinda Brick After Attempted TWRP Install - Moto G7 Play 1952-4

Ok, so I’ve run myself off the road into a deep hole and am hoping someone can help me climb out and get back onto the correct path.
I have a Motorola Moto G7 Play 1952-4 (channel). My goal is to install TWRP, and LineageOS 18.1 with GAPPS. Root is not important at the moment.
Here’s what I did:
After successfully unlocking the bootloader (thank you Motorola), I downloaded TWRP for Chanel from the TWRP.me site. My plan was to first install TWRP, then use TWRP’s install feature for LoS 18.1 and the GAPPS.
To install TWRP recovery, I followed the instructions on the TWRP site. After starting the ADB server on my Windows 10 PC and booting the phone into the stock recovery, I used “adb boot twrp-3.5.2_10-0-channel.img” to temporarily boot into TWRP recovery. I then used ADB to push TWRP.zip onto the internal SDCARD. I used TWRP’s install feature to install "twrp-installer-3.5.2_10-0-channel.zip", presumably to both slots. To the best of my memory, everything completed correctly.
BUT . . . when I powered down the phone and attempted to boot into recovery, all I got was a black screen with a small N/A in the upper left corner instead of the familiar TWRP screens. After a while, the phone booted itself into the stock U.S. Cellular Android 10 (Hell Oh - Moe Toe). I've done several power-off/power-on cycles to no avail. I am able to get to and use the stock OS.
So, like TWRP.me suggests, I figured I’d just flash it back to stock and start over. Um, nope. I can Vol-DN/Power to the bootloader menu, but “adb devices” doesn’t see the phone, preventing me from flashing anything. USB Debugging is enabled and the phone says "USB Transfer Mode: Connected". “adb devices” sees the phone while Android 10 is running, but as soon as I boot into recovery, the phone “disappears” from ADB.
The only other thing I could think to do was to use the “Rescue” function in the Lenovo/Motorola Smart Assistant. While ADB can’t see the phone, LMSC sees it just fine and I was able to rescue/reinstall the stock OS successfully, or so LMSC said. Unfortunately, LMSC doesn’t seem to fix whatever is wrong with the recovery. Interestingly, “N/A” no longer appears after Vol-DN/Power and select Recovery Mode, the black screen now says “bad key”, followed a little while later by the Android logo with a “!” in the middle of the screen and “No command” below it.
And that’s the hole I now reside in. Despite considerable searching/reading here at XDA, I'm at a total loss for what to do next.
SOOOO, I’m hoping someone can help me:
1. Fix the N/A black screen
2. Get into a mode that ADB can see
3. Properly install TWRP
Thank you in advance,
Tenaya
Did you flash the copy-partitions.zip while in TWRP?
Maybe you could borrow some ideas from the official install instructions for LineageOS.
Install LineageOS on channel | LineageOS Wiki
wiki.lineageos.org
I had some strange intermittent USB connectivity issues with a few Moto G7 Plus devices with my main laptop, but was fine connecting on a 12 year old desktop computer. So perhaps you could check to see if adb connects on another machine. Only other idea I have is to somehow flash back to stock again with fastboot.

No, I didn't know I needed to; nothing about that is mentioned by TWRP.me.
This is unknown territory for me, but your question sparks a thought for me. I wonder if 1) The stock recovery is in the "other" slot, and 2) there is some way to boot from it. That could be a way to sidestep the ADB devices problem I'm having?

At the moment, I have no way to do that. I don't think the USB connection is the culprit, ADB "sees" the phone just fine while the phone is in the stock OS, just not in recovery (EDL?.

That's my current plan, but FASTBOOT won't flash anything while ADB devices won't/can't see the phone. I'm hoping someone has a workaround of some sort for that.

Hi, first of all lets set some things straight, you are experiencing a Boot Loop, in other words a software brick. (Soft Brick) now luckily these are fairly simple to fix. Sorry to break it to you but the N/A Screen won't disappear, that used to be the Blue/Yellow Motorola Splash Screen, but since you unlocked your phone it'll only show N/A but thats okay there are tools that can help you customize this and change it later on.
Now why is it on a boot loop you may ask, well that is because there is no more operating system to load in. But worry not, try to get into your bootloader, and try to connect adb through there.

HellxDo,
Thanks for the reply.
After I used LSMC to "rescue" the phone, it stopped displaying N/A" and began showing "Bad key". Different, but not better.

Hmmm . . . The phone currently boots into the stock rom (U.S. Cellular Android 10) if I wait a while after "Bad key" displays. If there's no more OS to load in, how do it do dat?

My (limited) understanding is that the only way to "get into" my bootloader was with the Vol-DN/PWR button combination. When I do that , I get the bootloader menu, but ADB doesn't/can't see the phone - nothing is listed when I run ADB devices and fastboot won't/can't flash anything.
Is there a different/better way to get into my bootloader?
Tenaya
And the adventure continues. Here's some more information.
While continuing to research this, I was wondering if there was another way to boot the phone into EDL mode and Google found some instructions at thecustomdroid.com for using ADB to boot the phone into EDL. I booted the phone to the stock OS and used the command adb reboot edl. The phone immediately went blank, followed shortly by the "bad key" message. After a while it again booted into the stock rom.
I still cannot use fastboot because it doesn't/can't see the phone.
I have also discovered that if i use VOL-UP/PWR, the phone boots directly to "bad key", followed by the stock rom. Another dead end.
I also used LMSC to "Rescue" the phone again and learned several things:
While LMSC is running, it boots the phone into the bootloader menu and begins to flash. If I do adb devices while LMSC is flashing, the phone STILL doesn't appear in the list.
LMSC definitely flashed the stock OS - when the phone rebooted, it was back to the stock OS Android start screen as if it had never been configured.
There is still no recovery and I still can't flash anything.
LMSC is somehow able to flash without a recovery present.
Anyone have any other ideas?

If "fastboot devices" can't see your device while in bootloader mode, that could be the same issue I had relating to your USB compatibility with your computer. Try to borrow someone else's computer, install "platform-tools" to see if the "fastboot devices" command works.
If that works, next see if the command "fastboot getvar all" works. You should get many lines of info come up. If it gets stuck after a couple of lines, then the symptoms are the same as what I had. I have a bunch of really old laptops and a desktop sitting around with platform-tools just for this issue. I have heard others say that plugging the phone in via a USB hub sometimes gets fastboot to connect properly, but I haven't had success yet.
OK, some progress.
I found this:
[GUIDE][TOOL] Reboot to EDL mode from FASTBOOT! No More "Test Point Method"! [kenzo]
kenzo has graciously hacked fastboot.exe to force the phone into EDL mode. Using that, the phone booted into EDL and fastboot devices can now "see" the phone. Thank you kenzo.
BTW, kenzo's fastboot-edl isn't G7 Play specific, it was originally for the Xiaomi Redme Note 3 and seems to work for some other Android phones as well.
I'm still working on getting TWRP and LoS installed, but at least fastboot can talk to the phone.

fastboot oem blankflash

Question Pixel 6 Pro stuck in fastboot, not from downgrading.

Hi All,
Apologies if this has already been covered somewhere but I've been scouring the internet for most of the day and come up with nothing.
tldr: My Pixel 6 Pro has been running absolutely fine for 9 months, no issues what so ever through all the automatic updates, I powered it off this morning to apply a new screen protector went to turn it back on and its been stuck in fast boot since with every option that can be selected returning to the same screen. Not been fiddled with, no root nor boot loader unlock.
Simply turned it off put the screen protector on turned back on and it has been stuck in fast boot ever since with a list of things below I have tried;
Restarted, no change straight back to fastboot.
Recovery Mode, no luck same as 1.
Rescue mode and using googles update/repair tool, cannot connect result is the same as number 1.
Restart bootloader, no luck same as 1.
Flashed barcode setting on and off (i know), device state & NOS Production some times change see non error image.
Flashing via android flash tool, boot loader locked wont allow. 'error getting device locked state -1'
Using force options confirms bootloader needs unlocking.
Connected to fastboot.exe on pc.
fastboot devices, correctly recognises the device is connected.
fastboot set_active a, FAILED (remote: 'error getting device locked state -1') message.
fastboot set_active a --force, same as above.
fastboot set_active other, same as above
fastboot reboot --slot a, accepts command with slower restart than normal but reverts to b.
fastboot getvar all, works list in attachments if its is of any interest.
Details of the device,
Contract device from O2 so probably vendor locked.
Was working fine but the past week or so there have been occasions where it wouldn't accept a correct pin, then would after about 5-6 attempts then be fine some time. I didn't pay it too much thought at the time as nothing seemed off and fingerprint was always fine but seems more relevant now.
I'm not enrolled for the beta.
I haven't tried to root or unlock the bootloader.
For the first time I've been pretty boring with a phone and haven't fiddled with a thing.
I don't think I've even had the dev options menu opened on it.
I refuse to believe its bricked itself for no apparent reason but google seems to be failing me or I must be looking for the wrong thing. There must be something I can do via fastboot surely given that it has got some form of communication?
If anyone has any further suggestions it would be much appreciated before I go down the return/replace route.
I assume you didn't have OEM Unlocking enabled before this happened. Without an unlocked bootloader, there is nothing you can do to fix it, because the bootloader will reject any of the necessary commands to reflash the device. If you're still under warranty, seek warranty repair; this is going to require replacing the mainboard, because no one has the necessary tools to perform a low level reflash.
If the bootloader was unlocked, fixing this would be fairly simple because you'd just have to reflash the boot image. But, as I described above, a locked bootloader rejects all the commands that would help in this situation, and there is no way to unlock the bootloader if OEM Unlocking was not enabled.

Kind of sounds like a stuck hardware button, either power and volume that's makes the phone think you are holding down buttons during boot to get into bootloader
Can you press the power button to start the system? If not, try this (it may be useful, but it may get worse, please be cautious) Hold on power button and volume down at the same time for 45s, When you press 30 seconds, the screen should turn off and restart to this interface. Then do it again as above, when it restarts to the interface again, try to press the power button to enter the system.translate form Chinese(simplified)_Google
