I don't find quick reply

I make a link on my cloud:
https://webcloud.zaclys.com/index.php/s/KGyQFNBVi1sjCEc

your bootloader is locked
before you can install twrp or lineage,
you have to unlock your bootloader first.
remember, unlocking the bootloader will void your warranty

everything in english ^^

I have already done that is on this page writen:
I have unlocked bootloader:
I make another link on my cloud with a scrennshot:
https://webcloud.zaclys.com/index.php/s/z99YhUvRBuyLK39
What i have forgotten?

did you enter your imei on the sony side?
---------- Post added at 08:20 ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 ----------
In your first screen rooting status says "bootloader unlock allowed: yes"
that means you can unlock your bootloader but actually your bootloader is locked

Ok
How find and enter the IMEI number please?

Rooting doesnt unlock the bootloader.. Is ur bootloader unlocked? how did u do it? SE has given official instructions on how to unlock the bootloader..
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
R u trying to flash this Kernel via the Flash tool software? I would suggest you to connect ur cell in the fastboot mode.
Switch it off and connect it to PC via USB by pressing the menu button (A blue LED will be seen)
U need to have working fastboot for that..
http://www.mediafire.com/?b2of5mpqi2bwczt
Extract this file and when u'll connect ur cell to PC as stated above, for the first time, it will ask for drivers... browse to the USB driver folder which is in the .rar file.
Once u r done with the unlocking bootloader, download the kernel img file and save it in the folder where fastboot.exe is.
Now open the command promt (if u r using windows 7, just press shift and do a right click, select open command prompt here from the menu) and go to the fastboot folder in the cmd. once u r on the path of fastboot. Enter following commands :
fastboot flash boot KernelFile.img (ur copied kernel file)
it will start flashing the kernel, once it is done, type following
fastboot reboot
Ur cell be restarted, when u'll c the kernel booting, keep pressing the volume button to go into the recovery mode..
I cant be held responsible if u damage ur device!!!
Hit thanks if I helped u..

I have got the same stuff (but on my xperia neo)
same exact problem.
The is nothing with bootloader or root, i guess
what my experience is, when i open with cmd in windows and type fastboot devices, i get none but in flashtool it recognised the device in fastboot.
Do you also have the same status as this ?

Seriously bro.. you're doing something wrong.. once install all the drivers and execute this command..
Fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version
If u get 0.3 or something its all fine..

Put the unlock code in the command, enter it, while having phone in fastboot mode, and bootloader should get unlocked. That is only if you do have SIM-unlocked phone, that is no SIM-lock.

Rooting does not unlock your bootloader. They are not even related to each other!
There is a big difference between "Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes" and "Bootloader unlocked: Yes". I think you understand the difference.
Unlock bootloader and then try to flash kernel again.

I was having the same problem and it was due locked bootloader
then i unlocked the bootloader and every thing goes fine
so, dudes, I had the same problem... beyond others
the situation is: YOUR BOOTLOADER LOOKS LIKE UNLOCKED,
BUT IT ISN'T!!
When you rooted your phone, the rooting method modificated this notification. But the true story is that you need to go to Sony website and claim your BOOTLOADER UNLOCK CODE.
Unless you do this, you'll never flash any thing on your smartphone.
Hugs and kisses!!

[GUIDE][FIX]Cant unlock bootloader? Read here for a Fix

Hey guys , here's a simple guide on how to unlock your bootloader without having to downgrade all the way back to 2.17, in my case i had 2.17 system since it was the most stable(2.18 is a cluster hell of bugs) with 2.18 bootloader and recovery(yes you can mix and match)and so i went to try the bootloader unlock with just flashing the 2.19 system.img, that dint do anything the "getprop ro.isn > /factory/asuskey" command would do nothing, the bootloader wasnt unlock and so i did the following:
1.Downloaded the2.19 ota manually here link
2. I extracted the droidboot.img(fastboot img) from the 2.19 ota zip
3.Rebooted to fastboot mode
4. Then ran this command "fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img"
5,After this i rebooted back into system and rerun the unlock bootloader steps and viola the bootloader unlocked!( it wasn't before simply because the 2.18 fastboot does not have this unlock command)
6.After you unlock the bootloader your device will most likely get stuck at the bootanimation screen, at this time reboot back into fastboot mode and downloaded the black splashscreen here and run "fastboot flash splashscreen splashscreen.img". then reboot back to system and your device should boot all the way into your homescreen and your done =]
All credits go to ssj and shakalacas(ota links splashscreen link) for the bootloader unlock.
THIS WILL NOT WIPE ANYTHING ON YOUR DEVICE, if you mess up the commands thats on you follow the guide properly and everything will be fine.
That second link is trying to run some chrome extension, not download the file?

I think this is the file you were trying to link to:
https://mega.co.nz/#!IlMGiZ7I!kepXRFda7cgNPWHQovkCZaMaD2zVF4UufAJT6YEDU3k
I'm on 2.18 and rooted. Problem is, I uninstalled or disabled a bunch of ASUS apps, will I have an issue if I use SuperSU to unroot and try to restore or upgrade my phone to 2.19?
Also, I have model number ASUS_Z00AD. Is this firmware OK to install on my phone?

Uh.. wtf? Since when has the boot loader been unlocked? I was under the impression that we were waiting for an unlock tool as has been discussed in a few threads.. is this legit?
Edit: nevermind.. I stop looking for a day or two and this device's boot loader is unlocked. I am very excited and glad that I picked this device as it seems like it is in for a lot of love

This is probably a silly question, but I have the ZE550ML and the latest update is 2.18, meaning that unlocking the bootloader it is still not possible can I install droidboot.img(fastboot img) from the 2.19 ZE551ML on my device? Or that will just hard brick my device?
Let me know your thoughts on this.
Continue the great work XDA crew =)
I am on 2.18 and can't seem to find any way to update to 2.19, all the links are dead.
so I rooted and flashed droidboot, but when i run the adb commands it says unlock failed and restarts
any help would be greatly appreciated

You need to flash the pre rooted 2.19 system.img, then you will be able to unlock, since 2.19 has the unlock files in system.

---- Important Notes ----
NO WHITE BACKGROUND IN BOOTLOADER.
Many people have reported seeing an inverted background in the bootloader. I don't have that.
TRIPLE DOTS IN COMMAND PROMPT
The triple dots you see when I run the unlock command are actually there. They are not placeholders.

Right now I'm booting into recovery mode to flash a ROM to the phone. I'll update if I get the phone working.

Hi, I am trying to install twrp twrp-3.1.1-0-odin.img so I can get RR rom on my C6502
first of all, I'm well aware of steps, and I personally have this rom installed in my xperia m, so it won't be hard for me to understand and it's quite easy as 123 over there
the problem I'm facing is, this xperia ZL c6502 l35h device seems to have something in different I'm not able to flash twrp here
I used repair feature in sony pc companion, done successfully, start device, wait for first boot time, configure, enable unknown source, enable usb debugging, connect cable to pc and allow RSA pc's code
power off and connect with voldown, used flash tool to unlock bootloader (yes the blootloader status unlock is yes in *#*#7378042#*#* code confi thing)

first time it fails and second time it does, and output is successfull
then I proceed to flash twrp

first of all, I'm well aware of steps, and I personally have this rom installed in my xperia m, so it won't be hard for me to understand and it's quite easy as 123 over there
the problem I'm facing is, this xperia ZL c6502 l35h device seems to have something in different I'm not able to flash twrp here
I used repair feature in sony pc companion, done successfully, start device, wait for first boot time, configure, enable unknown source, enable usb debugging, connect cable to pc and allow RSA pc's code

Here's something more I learned
If you unlock boot loader, and restart, > tick unknown + usb debugging, and boot to bootloader, it won't let you flash boot.img
but if you immediately unlock bootloader, and without restart, you flash boot.img, it will go success
but after that, your device won't start
it's not starting, it vibrates, but no display, no matter how many times you press and hold power button to start it, it will vibrate, and won't start
I tried each and every combination of vol +/- and power button, but it's not starting that way
EDIT:
but I can still press and hold vol up and connect cable to get in fastboot mode, after which if I try flashing twrp, i again get command not allowed, except if I try fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xDB29CBBEFBAB4A64 and then fastboot flash boot boot.img
after which I will get success flashing that recovery, but device won't start

For me, i think if you're recently to unlock your bootloader. Have you try to confirmed that your bootloader really unlocked from stock firmware? (*#*#7378423#*#*) and see about bootloader info?
If bootloader already unlocked, then you're safe to flash, And have you read any requirement to flash recovery for your device? i think it's like only work for custom rom or only work for specified version of firmware?
If device won't start, then it should from kernel problem. Try to check your custom recovery compatibility before flashing, and tell us what happen next

okay,
so few points worth mentioning
1) my bootloader is unlockable, and is unlocked, I mean in 7378423 it's written yes in root status bl unlock
2) I have received code from sony, and I can unlock it
3) the only recovery that works is https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2288118 that too only after using kingroot, which gives me old philz and 2.8.7.0 twrp which are not helpful, also I tried to flash RR 7.1.2 based, phone basically gets bricked
4) I can only flash twrp or any recovery if I unlock bootloader, and without restarting I flash boot.img, if I do so, phone gets bricked

There's nothing written about requirements of twrp to flash, or rom, they just don't have, but as I have latest firmware, it should work, even nothing is written in linageos thread
I found basically few members of the community faced this problem

LG G5 (H850) after update to 14.1-20170822-nightly-h850 bricked after second reboot

Hi, i installed the latest LG G5 Update (lineage-14.1-20170822-nightly-h850-signed), the first regular reboot was fine.
The second reboot has "bricked" my phone.
Please check the attached Picture from the phone.
Anyon a idea how to get back the phone to "life"??? :crying:
Thank you in advance for any assistance
MoPhat
This advise comes "as is" and with no warranty and I will not be responsible for any damages of any kind.
That's a soft brick (I wouldn't even call it a brick) and should be easy to resolve.
Did you erase data and system before flashing the ZIP file? You should always do this before flashing a new OS or did you just flash over your original LG5's OS without erasing those partitions?
Try re-downloading lineage-14.1-20170822-nightly-h850-signed and run a crc32 check on both zip files (the one you downloaded originally and the one you downloaded the second time) to see if the crc32 values match. If they don't, that would explain why you ended up in this situation (assuming you flashed the file the correct way). If you are on Windows, you can download a utility called "hashmyfiles" by NirSoft to get the crc32 along with other checksum values. If you are on linux, you can use the "crc32 lineage-14.1-20170822-nightly-h850-signed.zip" command to see the crc32 value and if values do not match, try downloading it again and do the check one more time until the values match. You can also click on the "sha256" and "sha1" links below the link you downloaded the file from and then using "hashmyfiles" you can compare the values whether they match.
Anyway, the way I personally would go with this one is try to enter Recovery mode, erase system, data (and probably boot but not necessary as the OS zip file will over write it anyway) and try again. If your recovery asks you to install root / SuperUser, you should select "No" and use LOS's official SuperUser add-ons if that's what you are after.
Thank you marco-v
I can't check the crc from the file because i have updated the latest Version with the build in update function...
I have tryed to boot in the recovery menu by pressing the power und volume down button, realising when i see the lg logo an pressing again both to (normaly) enter the recovery mode. it appears the same message
http://androidflagship.com/20275-boot-lg-g5-recovery-mode
the only menu that Comes are the "factory data reset" menu, but this makes no difference...
any further ideas?

So it looks like your Recovery mode is messed up too? Not sure how that might have happened unless you instructed LOS to "Update Recovery" .
Have you tried to see if you are able to enter fastboot mode and reflash your custom recovery image again and try to enter Recovery mode again? The one I use on my device (Oppo Find 7) is a TWRP image and I find it very reliable.
You can see if you can boot to Recovery by running the following command from fastboot mode (assuming you have a TWRP image)
fastboot boot twrp-x.x.x-x-h850.img
Replace x.x.x.x with the version of the file.
Tryed, result is:
Code:
C:\Temp\root_H850>fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-0-h850.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.430s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.451s
With "adb.exe devices" are the phone not listed
Ok, my device is locked!?!?

Try following these instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/recovery-team-win-recovery-project-lg-g5-t3363047 and see if you can get TWRP running and if you do, you can try flashing LOS again but format data + system (you will lose all data) and if you are not careful, you might lose data on internal storage + external storage so read carefully what's displayed on the screen before going ahead.
Also: http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryTypeCode=ANRS and this will show you how to unlock your bootloader.
---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:41 PM ----------
I just read your post, you can try:
fastboot oem unlock
and see if it works. May be it will because it was unlocked already once but can't tell for sure.
Sorry, nothing has worked.
I will try set "upgrade error" back in the lg update tool to flash the original firmware, but i need a SERIAL or the IMEI number, how can i find this out?
Normally, IMEI numbers are located right under the battery on phones that come with removable back covers and batteries. Yours however slides out, it might be somewhere there or perhaps you can check the box / packaging. So the following command didn't work?
fastboot oem unlock
What's the error you got? The official bootloader instructions on LG's website should have worked as it supports your model. To me the only issue you seem to be having is a restricted booloader and once you unlock it, everything should be fine. This is why you can't boot into TWRP using the boot command.
Not worked, the result is:
Code:
C:\Temp\root_H850>fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.025s
I see, thx, if the LG official unlock instructions did not or no longer work followed by the instructions here https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/recovery-team-win-recovery-project-lg-g5-t3363047, I am out of ideas. Perhaps someone else can help and provide further hints.

Moto Z2 force constantly bootlooping, Stock rom load but NO Wi-FI or Cellular network

I have struggled to fix my bootlooping problem , After install LOS rom/ other rom and flashing the Magisk. Everything installed fine, but for some reason, after restarting the system it will get to LOS loading screen and bootloop. I attempted to install a stock rom on it, but that load fine but it WIFI and Cellular Network doesn't work. The boot loader has been unlocked Any detail instruction will be highly appreciated. Thanks
Background info, I have spent more than 1 years using this awesome phone with Lineage OS 15.1 , I wake up one morning with the constantly boot looping. I have the T-Mobile version with the bootloader unlocked. I have also spent weeks going through and following other threads but haven't been able to resolved my issue.

Whenever you move from custom to stock and vice versa you should format user data. Easiest way is in bootloader mode, issue the command 'fastboot -w' w/o quotes.

The IMEI number is “Unknown” , Yes the bootloader is Unlocked because, I am able to flash TWRP image on the phone. Yes I spent close to a week following the return to stock thread, the first time I did it, the Cellular network come on about 30 minutes after the phone completed loading to the home screen. Thanks for the guidance
You need to blankflash, then flash the latest TMO firmware for your phone. Usually you lose baseband when you flash the wrong firmware, does it say XT1789-04 by the usb port?

What zip did you use?
Edit: that thread uses AFH which has an older version bootloader than in your picture so something isn't going right. How long does it take to flash?
Edit 2: does your phone reboot after running the .bat file?
I used the T-Mobile Flash All zip the link was to google drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Bo_ry_38J6BHy4-A4fuhAnv94C5yV1TW/edit

Yeah, that one is old. Try https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603877456 just like the guide states, it should open command prompt and you should see it flashing. The process can take s minute or two. If it immediately closes within 30 seconds or hangs, it didn't flash

I download the suggested rom [ https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603877456 ] and flashed it to my phone running flashall.bat via Windows PowerShell,
It took approximately 6 minutes for the flashing to be complete, but with some minor error, Afterword the phone reboot back to the bootloader screen. After starting it still doesn't show the IMEI number and No cellular network or WIFI available.
The output of the flashing process is below along with the attach screenshot of the error;
Erase successful, but not automatically formatting.
File system type raw not supported.
erasing 'userdata'...
OKAY [ 0.803s]
finished. total time: 0.807s

Flash again, after it is done, type fastboot --set-active=other and then run it one last time. Then boot your phone.

After flashing the rom again, and getting the error " Erase successful, but not automatically formatting..." I input the fastboot command "fastboot --set-active=other" and I got back "unknown option -- set-active=other" as show in the image below. Was the syntax right?
I have been googling the errors I have received like "Erase successful, but not automatically formatting.
File system type raw not supported" to see if I can land on page that can help resolve the issue with the phone.
I have downloaded the latest adb and fastboot platform tools versions, after running the flashall.bat file, I still got the same error at the end. I follow up with the "fastboot --set-active=other" command and this time I got [ Setting current slot to '`' FAILED (remote: '') ] as show in the image below.

Seems it isn't recognizing other then, which it should. Do =_b then to see if you can swap to slot B

After inputting the command [ fastboot --set-active=_b ] the output I got back was [ Slot _b does not exist. supported slots are:
a
b ]
I proceed to input [ fastboot --set-active=b ] the output was [ Setting current slot to 'b' ]
So I the flashing again and input the [ fastboot --set-active=b ] again and got back [ Setting current slot to 'b' ]
I pressed the power button to start the phone from bootloader menu , the phone boot-loop with the Motorola logo as show, after 6 to 8 cycling of the boot looping with the Motorola logo the phone bootup again with T-Mobile logo. When it got home screen, I saw again that Network and cellular still not working and No IMEI number too.
