I tried to root my phone and followed all steps until it asked to boot into the custom recovery and that only displayed a blackscreen and if I tap on the screen the phone vibrated. I cannot boot into bootloader as the phone just automatically tries to enter recovery with blackscreen.
Hold all buttons the phone boots normally and can use the phone as usual.
I've tried to use the adb and fastboot cmds to restore and factory reset but just reboots and tries to enter recovery with the blackscreen.
My device is htc_a51ul if that helps.
Thanks,
Phatzy
Tighten two volume buttons and the power button when you see a black screen and holding down the volume- and power button that would go to zagruzchik.Telefon must be connected to kompyuteru.Esli got to go to the boot loader, boot into download sistemu.Esli not work then you have forgiven stock rekaveri of loader. https://yadi.sk/d/nWnRAChBnEtxG
I think you have flashed a wrong recovery ,first thing to do now is flash stock recovery and whether if it is working fine if so then flash the proper version of twrp 2.8.7.0 is recommended and see if it works
I had the same issue when I first flashed twrp on lollipop but then I did the above and now everything is fine.
while its on the blackscreen only adb commands work. If i try fastboot commands its just waiting for device and phone dont respond. I cannot get into bootloader at all with volume keys or with adb command.
Many thanks for suggestions.
Ok I have now managed to get bootloader back and I can now enter the stock recovery but when I enter recovery it has a red triangle. Is there anyway to remove this?
Thanks.
So I already had a rooted (and I'm pretty sure unlocked bootlader) version of the stock Asus and wanted to put CM13 nightly on there. Everything was going smooth until I got to the stage where I have to load into TWRP and I got the error screen with the little dead alien and the red symbol.
Now I can't enter normal boot, but entering recovery mode seems to work. I tried the option to side load a package from ADB on that screen but nothing worked (.zip files extracted, but I got an error on the phone).
As you can tell, I'm really new to this so any help would be greatly appreciated. I tried looking around, but it seems the more common issue is people not being able to enter recovery mode or something similar.
Thanks
Looks like your doing it wrong. Being rooted does not necessarily mean that your bootloader is unlocked.
By the looks of it your in recovery mode with the dead robot with the "error" message. That is normal. To reboot back into system you either have to press (I don't remember) power button and volume up or down button. Then you should see some options with reboot to system. Or if that does not work you can hold the power button till it turns off.
Then you get back into Android, download the official bootloader unlock tool from ASUS and install it on your device. NOTE: If you updated to MM then this will not work and this will void your warranty.
Run the tool and press unlock and it should reboot into fastboot where it should begin the unlocking process. I believe it should automatically reboot and you should see that the Asus logo is now black instead of white. If not, repeat the process.
You can now proceed to flash twrp recovery. Boot into fastboot/bootloader mode either with "adb reboot bootloader" or hold a specific set of buttons while off to go directly into fastboot.
On the computer, connect your device and type in "fastboot flash recovery (path to twrp IMG without brackets)"
When done you should be able to reboot into twrp recovery where you can flash the cm13 zip.
Hope this helped.
I installed this rom: (https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/h815-nougat-stock-t3659860) the correct way through TWRP and having an unlocked bootloader and then the rom worked well, but then i thought i still had the TWRP as a recovery so i tried to enter the recovery mode by pressing power button+lower volume button. afterwards i clicked twice yes. so the phone rebooted and the rom didn't work anymore. So tried to find a solution by searching XDA forums and the internet. Since my previous version was MM i found LGUP which could restore the phone to its previous ROM. however i am now having issues with LG UP. i tried several methods:
the 1st one was: from https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...mm-lp-t3249803 with the H81520D_00_0115.kdz file and the DLL files which came with the software itself. This always led me to 25% after which LG UP would crash and give a "error code = 0x2000 invalid command response at system". then i tried a different DLL from: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...-file-t3586220 #6 which led me to have the error at 11%.
the 2nd one was: from https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...-h815-t3673777 #6-#11 so tried this method with these DLL files and by reinstalling LG UP and the driver, also by using the H81520p_00_0314.kdz file. but now i have the issue that LGUP gets stuck at 4% "USB connection established" and will automatically close the program and windows will show me that "LGUP has stopped working".
the 3rd one was: using LG bridge and hoping it will reset the phone. but nothing it just says that the phone has no software issues and that i have the latest software which is H81529a.
Lastly i tried to get flash twrp-3.1.1-1-g4.img through fastboot and was able to flash the recovery by using "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-1-g4.img", however i was not able to get into the recovery because when i typed "fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-1-g4.img" i would get an error (can be seen in the picture). so i tried to enter the recovery manually by pressing power button+lower volume button, and releasing the power button for 1 second and the pressing the powerbutton again, afterwards i clicked twice yes in the white screen, but this got me to download mode and not into TWRP (can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xai6_8T8BgI)
I am now stuck and don't know what to do, and was hoping you guys could help me? I am using a PC with WIN 10 and i can boot into Fastboot mode and Download mode

Hello everyone! Complete dumbass here!
I was following the guide to root my razer phone. I've had it for a couple months, and decided to root it. I followed the guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/razer-phone/how-to/twrp-magisk-fullproof-guide-razers-wifi-t3756137
After a couple bumps in the road, such as fastboot commands not working, not being recognized, etc. I finally was able to unlock bootloader and install twrp. But it was #9 that got me stuck again.
"9.) Once in recovery, go to the install button, and select Install Zip, and select Magisk-v16.0.zip."
In recovery, adb devices and fastboot devices yielded no devices attached. Doing a search, I came across another forum post where it states the sdcard is encrypted and can't be accessed in twrp, and the fix is to do something like "Wipe>Wipe Data> Type Yes" and that should factory set the card. I did this and rebooted the device. I waited for a half hour for the animated PixelFloatingInACircle logo to be done with it's floating in a circle, but ended up going to bed and letting it die. Woke up this morning, plugged it in, got the razer logo splash screen with the orange text telling me of my impending doom, then went back to the animation. I let my dog out and came back and it was still on. I unplugged it and am letting it die again to see if there's another solution.
I'm wondering if anyone else came across this issue, and if so, how did they fix it? Any help would be appreciated.
Use the factory images in the developer portal. You have to manually install the fastboot driver or you won't see the phone in fastboot devices. After that you can flash_all.bat.
PS: if you just want root you can use magisk installer to patch the boot image (from the factory images) and then flash the patched_image.img. That's it, now you have root via magisk

The problem is when I try to enter download/recovery mode after charging the battery a little, it doesn't go to that menu. Instead, it skips right to the particle logo, and that's where it hangs.
The only guide I saw was the one I listed. Is there a guide for this magisk installer?(Ya know, in case I figure the first problem out, so I might try my hand at potentially creating another)
i think there is a way to hard reboot the phone, so you can do that and then hold the vol- key to start in bootloader mode when it reboots.
gonna check the correct buttons.
Edit: the button combination is power+vol+ for about 10-15 seconds, and the phone will reboot. You have to connect the phone via usb cable (before rebooting) to the computer (the only thing i'm not sure is if you have to have the fastboot drivers in the pc installed previously or if you can do it after entering fastboot) and just after the screen goes black while hard rebooting you have to release all the buttons and then press and hold the vol- button. The combination of vol- and the usb cable on boot seems to trigger fastboot mode.
I think the guide is in the guides forum, but the way it worked for me was without twrp:
- install magisk manager from this link -> https://github.com/topjohnwu/MagiskManager/releases/download/v5.7.0/MagiskManager-v5.7.0.apk
- push your boot.img (the easiest way is getting it from the factory image corresponding to the firmware you are using) to the sdcard
- open magisk manager -> install -> patch image only -> boot.img
- this will generate a patched_boot.img in /sdcard/MagiskManager
- copy that file to your pc
- go to fastboot and flash that patched image: fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
- enjoy root, and you can use magisk hide for apps that don't like root

Read the edit, I found that the trigger is having the usb cable connected to the pc. Try that, or you can also try to adb while the device is booting (particles logo). Sometimes adb is responsive even when booting. There you can try to adb reboot bootloader

Progress! Got it into download mode. I have the boot.img I got from razer, should I push that and see if it boots normally?

As you already wiped the data partition, you should use the flash_all script. But yes, you can try flashing each partition

I moved the flash_all script into the tools folder and after a little while, the phone booted up into setup! After a couple taps, I've realized the wifi isn't working, which I know is a known issue. I'm gonna let it sit for the night and finish it in the morning!
EDIT : Soooo, I know I said I was going to bed, but I decided to fix the wifi issue, which in turn, also rooted my phone. I've downloaded the root checker, and it confirms it! Thanks so much Waiflih! You rock!
Hi guys, it seems I'm having the same problem and basically after unlocking my bootloader and flashing twrp to both of my slots I'm stuck on "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" booting up infinitely.
The USB plug in and holding the volume - button doesn't bring up "download mode" and no matter what buttons I try and press on my phone my computer doesn't recognize ANYTHING connected to it anymore.
Bloodeagle, how did you manage to get "download mode" back onto your phone? it seems like mine refuses to do anything like download mode.

Have you tried holding few combinations of different butt9ns for a minute or two to see if that results in you getting in downl9ad mode?
hello,
I did everything successfully with unlocking bootloader and loading TWRP/vbmeta. then I was playing with the phone, restarting, entering TWRP, entering download mode. and somehow while in download mode I clicked "lock bootloader" now the phone enters download mode with the error visible on attached screen. is there a way to escape from this one?
fixed. it didn't work with original stock firmware as one file flashed with odin, but worked with original stock firmware as multiple files. now it is ready for my next failures
