Hello, as the title says, I have accidentally bricked my ASUS Zenfone 2.
The device does NOT have the bootloader unlocked, it is NOT rooted and it does NOT have any custom recovery installed on it.
I have installed the latest firmware from ASUS 2 days ago (Marshmallow update), and today I have tried to unlock the bootloader in order to install CM13 on it, I have tried doing that using the official unlocking tool on the ASUS website, but it didn't work on the 6.0.1 version of the firmware.
After that, I downloaded the official firmware in order to downgrade the phone from 6.0.1 to 5.0.0, so I could unlock the bootloader, now it is stuck in the fastboot screen, and it cannot boot properly.
I am a begginer in Android flashing and what not so I really don't know how to unbrick it, any help would be appreciated as I need the phone back working urgently. Thank you! Waiting for replies.
Hello, all very warmly on the forum
I am asking you with a very polite request for information whether TWRP Recovery is already available
which can be installed on a locked Bootlader in the LG G4 h815?
I currently have an Android 6.0 MM smartphone in it.
As described in the Google Play Store, the official recovery application is available for download
TWRP - there is no description in the description for it to be unblocked
bootloader.

With a locked bootloader, you need to install this one:
[TWRP][any G4][BL LOCKED] TWRP-in-FIsH for all LOCKED G4 devices by steadfasterX - it works a charm ... but ... you will need to downgrade to Android 5.1 and root your phone first. Note: You will not be able to install custom roms as long as your bootloader is locked.

An Official Oreo edition for LG G4 h815 has not been released as far as I am aware, nor is it likely to be since very few LG G4's have even had a Nougat version release, let alone an Oreo release.
If you want Oreo you will have to unlock your bootloader and install a custom rom. Can't comment on stock Oreo vs Nougat optimization, nor can anybody else, I suspect as far as the LG G4 - you'll have to check the LG G4 Android development forums to get an idea from the custom rom versions being devloped - AOSCP or Lineage - both are not fully stable as yet though - Nougat versions are currently better as daily drivers.

Hello, thank you for your answer. Currently which version of Android Nougat 7.0 is the best optimized? Send a link.
I'll ask, if you have H815 there's a high chance you can save your time and effort and just unlock it with official LG unlock method.

Do you want to record a video like you enter the twrp from the combination of power buttons by volume down? Please, write in this method did you make your LG G4 h815? > https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/howto-complete-guide-to-unlock-twrp-t3370003
I was flashing this method from this link - but from the command in the recovery terminal it runs to a temporary one. The command for flashing enters the terminal, however, the twrp will not be taken from the combination of the power and volume down buttons. Therefore, write which application to flush root in Android MM 6.0? The application from the Google Play oficialna store to TWRP Recovery requires the root done earlier. I am asking you for your advice.

So, you're saying that you have flashed TWRP to your boot partition and asking how to revert it back? Easiest way would be just to reflash ROM(it will overwrite boot partition) or you can download Titan kernel and flash it instead(download it on PC and use USB MTP to transfer file to G4). If you want to ask how to get to TWRP via key combo then I'll tell you it's quite simple after few times especially if you're good with using your G4 one handed. When phone is off press and hold both volume down and power, then when you feel vibration and see LG logo release power button(but keep pressing volume down!) and the after briefly a second hold both buttons again. If you succeeded factory reset prompt should appear. Then press yes twice and you're in TWRP(don't worry, nothing will be wiped, it's just how LG's bootloader work). I unlocked my G4 with official method like 1.5 year ago(there wasn't unofficial unlock back then) but I did a backup of my stock v20g software with relock possibility(in case of bootloop). Now you can relock officially with Nougat bootloader

I have the 2016 Motorola Z Play, running 7.1.1. I was able to find instructions for replacing the recovery for this model (Addison) via adb, It appeared to work successfully, but I cannot boot into the recovery (Baseband Version M8953_10229.50.04.65R Addison_VZW_CUST. I am not eligible to have my Verizon model be bootloader unlocked via Motorola. Is there any way at all I can get TWRP on this model, a custom rom, and root? My phone is able to boot into the standard rom without issue. Thanks in advance.
As far as I know, there is no way to get TWRP/anything custom on a Verizon locked device without exploits. I'm not aware of any exploits for the Z Play that may allow you to do so, and with a locked bootloader, if you did try to flash anything non-stock, you may either experience it failing to flash/work or have a bootloop. The bootloop could require a stock ROM reflash (of the Verizon 7.1.1 variant). What happens when you boot to the recovery now, do you still see the 'no command' and the Android laying on its back?
I'm not sure if you can flash OTA updates if you've replaced your recovery, it might be that the Verizon and retail variants are similar enough that OTA updates may flash without issue, but only trying to update would answer that question.
I should clarify this restriction seems to be for devices bought through Verizon (i.e. have a vzw software channel), whereas retail devices on Verizon may not have the same bootloader restriction.
I wanted to root my Xperia XA1 device with Android 8.0 Oreo. When I unlocked bootloader, powered my phone into a fastboot mode and tried to install the TWRP, it started to bootloop (after fastbooting only boot.img file). Unfortunately, tried another solutions - results are same. On Android 7.0 it was working perfectly, and there were no problems, but I needed to reset my phone and install stock due to warranty.
Can someone send a link to WORKING Oreo 8.0 Android TWRP, and SuperSU zip file?
PS. USB Debugging on, OEM Unlocked, Bootloader unlocked, Drivers installed, ADB Installed.
Phone name and compile number:
Sony Xperia XA1 G3121
