Can't Unlock Bootloader , Can't enable OEM unlocking option in settings, Help

I wanted to unroot my device to send it back for repair ( screen shattered).
I made a backup, flashed this stock recovery(https://basketbuild.com/uploads/devs...3/recovery.img) locked my bootloader, wanted to enter stock recovery to sideload stock rom, but fails .

When i enter recovery mode, Oneplus logo flashes 3 times then everything turns black except notification light turns on.

Now I want to try to unlock the bootloader again so I can flash another stock recovery. But it says : (remote: oem unlock is not allowed )

I know that i have to enable it in settings, but I cant boot my phone to the rom / software. So now i am stuck, I can't enter recovery mode because I messed up, I flashed a "wrong" stock recovery before locking bootloader.
Any suggestions?
Please help me with this problem.

Thanks in advance

Theme for Remix OS Bootloader

Hello everyone :D
Is there any way to set a different theme on the grub version installed by Remix OS (2.0.xxx beta)?
Because I found a lot of themes on gnome-look dot org

But I didn't manage to set them up on grub using Windows :(
All the tutorials I found explained how to do it from Linux, but not with Windows ...

(I have try to copy the theme folder here:
[DRIVE]:\RemixOS\boot\grub\theme
But I don't know what to do next ^^)

Thank you for your help :)

PS: is there any grub theme that can work with touchscreens?

[GUIDE] Unlocking BOOTLOADER and Rooting Easy Method



Just download the files attached here and do as per the video tutorial here, and you are done. Your bootloader may still remains if black, which doesn't mean that it is locked. You can check the status of bootloader with the given tool. Good luck! If you have any doubts comment here, or below the video tutorial.

Can't access bootloader



Hey XDA!

This is my first post so I'm sorry if I'm not providing enough info here. Earlier today, I was trying to root my Nexus 5, and I was using the Nexus Root Toolkit by WugFresh. When I swiped to reboot my phone, everything was going well until it started to continuously turn on and off when the Google logo showed up. I tried to get into the bootloader, but the bootloader only loaded for 2 seconds before restarting into the Google logo once again. This means I can't flash the stock factory image onto it.

Any help will be great and further info can be provided upon request!

Thanks a ton!

Deleted OS with Locked bootloader / Not able to unlock it



I mistakenly deleted my Nexus 6P internal memory with TWRP. Now my phone turns on and gets stuck at Google logo.
I am able to go to recovery mode but it reboots again and gets stuck at Google.
When I try to reboot it, it asks me "There is not OS, do you still want to reboot?"
I am able to go to CMD in Windows and when I try to unlock the bootloader, it gives my error "Remote: boot loader can't be unlocked".
Is there any way to install the OS from scratch even the bootloader is locked.
I am not able to access the internal memory of my phone on Windows computer and there is no TWRP on my phone anymore.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks

[Emergency] Phone stuck on bootloader!



Hi, so let me get to the point.

I attempted to root my phone with towelroot, and had no success. I did some googling and found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...05&postcount=1

I flashed the kernel following the instructions and my phone gets stuck on boot now. I was naive to think it would work... someone please help! This phone is my only phone and it's literally my job to have this phone. I don't know a lot about this stuff but here is my model version : SM-G900A

Also, in hopes of trying to fix my phone, i tried finding an original kernel file which im currently downloading this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2785185

Although i would REALLY appreciate it if I could keep all my files and such. I dont want my phone resetting completely.

Also when i booted into recovery mode, this was at the top: G900AUCS4CPA3

I don't care about rooting anymore, I just need my phone to be back to normal!! Please and thank you! It's 3:38 AM and i've been in a HUGE panic for the past 3 hours...

Will Marshmallow lock the bootloader on my T-Mobile S5?

Sorry if these are dumb questions... I have searched unsuccessfully for answers here and I am new to the forums and to Android... not sure where to ask this...

I just bought a new (unsold stock) T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900T) phone and activated it on the T-Mobile network. The phone came with G900TUVU1ANE6 (4.4.2) from the factory. After only a few hours of operation T-Mobile has pushed an unnamed update to the phone which I assume is G900TUVU1GPE1 (6.0.1) Marshmallow. I have postponed installation of the update but don't know how long I can postpone it or if I can prevent its installation.

Will installing Marshmallow cause my S5's bootloader to become locked? I ask because I found this on Wikipedia (link not allowed) "As of Marshmallow, the Android Compatibility Definition Document contains new security mandates for devices, dictating that those that are capable of accessing encrypted data without affecting performance must enable Secure boot and device encryption by default".

Or is my G900T's bootloader already locked? I ask because I found this at root my galaxy dot net (link not allowed) "If your device’s bootloader is locked then you will get the update via OTA. [...] If your device is rooted or bootloader is unlocked then you have to manually Flash / Install Official Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Firmware On T-Mobile Galaxy S5 using Odin Flash tool".

The second question worries me more. I bought a T-Mobile S5 because so many sources claim the G900T bootloaders are unlocked. Now I'm unsure. Is there an easy way to determine if my bootloader is locked or unlocked? (I have Heimdall available on a Linux laptop but no windows machine).

I hope to install CM10 or CM13 on my S5. Thanks in advance for any definite information or guidance anyone can provide.

Cannot boot to bootloader mode

Hello guys. I really need soem help on this. After trying a whole day and looking at plenty of sources (heck even other phone forums), I've failed to unlock my bootloader. I've tried running the command

HTML Code:


adb reboot bootloader

and failed countless times. Any suggestions? Also, yes I've selected USB debugging and OEM unlock in developer options. Thank you.

Phone model: LG H960A
OS: Android 6.0

Stuck in bootloop with usb debugging disable, locked bootloader, all stock non rooted

Am I completely out of luck. I try to run flash.bat from a factory image but img flash fails because the device is locked. I can't find any way to unlock it without getting into developer options which of course is impossible in boot loop. I've tried Wug's tools to no avail. Does anyone know of any way to unlock bootloader without getting into settings to enable usb debugging? Any help is greatly appreciated.

LG G4 H815 bootloader unresponsive

Hi all,

I am trying to root my device. first step as I understand it would be to unlock my bootloader.
When run "adb reboot bootloader" the phone reboots and loads into what looks to me like the bootloader (text screen that says "bootloader" and gives hints on how to use it, like running the fastboot command to get the device id and pressing the power for more than 10 seconds to shut down).

Unfortunately when i attempt to use the fastboot command the utility says "< waiting for any device >".
Additionally, pressing the power button for more than 10 seconds does not shut down the device (i press for over 30 seconds). I need to remove the battery in order to restart the phone.

I am running android 6 and my device is an H815.

any suggestions? I really need help!

Sony Xperia Aqua E2306 Bootloader

So my M4 is the E2306 version and it says Bootloader Unlock Allowed: No but theres an option in the dev options to turn on OEM Unlock. I turned that on and tried unlocking it via fastboot but got "Command Not allowed" then i tied flashtool and it seemed to work but now the Root Status in service menu just says unavailable. Any idea how i could unlock the bootloader or what happened?

Nexus 6p nougat bootloader

I have a major problem, I need to know if it will be possible to flash a custom rom on a nexus 6p. It seems that it will be hard because of that new bootloader.

Bootlop / cannot enter TWRP from Bootloader Menu / Power button stuck

Hi guys,

I currently have some issues with my beloved N5. I try to be as specific as I can (therefore the text will be a bit longer) :D
First things first: My device is experiencing the well known "stuck power button problem".
But I also do have problems which are not related to that one (at least thats what I believe).

Overview:
CM 13.1
ElementalX Kernel
TWRP on 3.0.20

Main issue: I can not start my phone regularly. When not plugged in, it just does not respond at all.
If it is plugged in I can get into the bootloader with only pressing Volume down (because the power button is stuck inside). Weird fact #1: in bootloader the power button should work to confirm a specific task like Start, or boot into recovery but it doesnt. Also: the phone is steady in the bootloader and does not keep rebooting.

Therefore I wanted to perform a backup (nandroid or at least all media) and reflash my ROM to see whether it is more of a software issue. I tried booting into TRWP which is not working (device shuts down after Google logo (might be because of the power button issue?).
I know that I can flash the recovery again through adb or the Nexus ToolKit but obviously I want to save my data first.
As far as I know there is no option as adb pull or through the recovery to save those only being in bootloader mode, am I right?
Question: Can I dirty flash without losing data? If thats not the cure, what else could help?

Other facts to know: while running

Code:


adb devices

I get that the

Code:


"adb server version (36) doesnt match this client (35): killing...

but then:

Code:


*daemon started successfully*

(same in Nexus Toolkit).
If I continue with

Code:


adb backup

it says: no devices / emulators found. Altough the nexus toolkit (and fastboot devices) say:

Code:


FASTBOOT: 03181238e07723e0 fastboot


If you made it until here thank you for reading :good: and I would be even more pleased if someone could help. ;)

Best,

Power button responsive in bootloader and recovery



My phone powers on and off fine. However I can't boot into recovery or bootloader by using the volume+power buttons. the phone just starts normally. I can get into recovery using adb command and the volume button can cycle through the selections but the power button is unresponsive so I can't select anything. Not a hardware issue but I don't know why it isn't working. Can anyone help please?



hard brick wrong bootloader



Seems that a zip files I used to flash had the wrong img file for the bootloader within when flashed. I believe for the nexus 5 instead of 5x. Now no response at all from phone. Is their anything that can be done at this point? any batch files or utilities come about for this as of yet? Thanks!



Rooting D855/ Unlocking bootloader, without kingroot



Hi all, I'm new to android rooting, and have been consuming knowledge over the last few days like a large sponge.

I discovered that McAfee had set itself if with admin rights on my phone, and had been sending texts to international numbers without alerting me, took me a good while to find out where the extra charges from my carrier were coming from. Anyway, I cant delete it as its in the ROM, so i rooted the phone (on lollipop) and deleted it, along with some other bloatware that LG and my carrier decided I would want, and then updated the phone to marshmallow (I didn't actually realise marshmallow had been released, I don't keep in the android loop, and my phone always said the latest OS was installed - had to update it through LGs PC suite).

To my abject horror McAfee was back, I can only assume this was due to the update to marshmallow, and not because it somehow survived deletion somewhere on the phone. So now, i need to root the phone, and delete McAfee again, however I really dont want to use Kingroot to do it. Its very shifty, looking at various info on the web, what with it sending information to IPs in China and running services in the background. The other alternative, using Supersu's systemless root, requires the bootloader to be unlocked, but to unlock the bootloader, a root is required (please correct me if any of this information is incorrect, I am pretty new to the android side of things - ive only ever jailbroken iDevices before now). I think im right in saying I could unlock the boot loader if I could access fastboot, but the command 'adb reboot-bootloader' only reboots the phone, rather than booting into the bootloader.

Is there anything I can do to get around this ? Once its rooted and the bloatware deleted, Ill unroot it (I use banking apps and they wont run if the phone is rooted) so I dont want to flash any custom ROMS or anything - just get access to files on the root.
