Troubleshooting when rooting, TWRP, and hard brick. Moto G7 Power (Ocean) - Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion

Just wanted to share some tips. I successfully rooted my XT1955-5 but had some trouble along the way.
First I followed this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-power/how-to/xt1955-5-bootloader-unlock-install-twrp-t4019903
But it would not boot after installing TWRP, just looped back into TWRP.
SOLUTION: TWRP 3.3.1.0 worked - 3.3.1.2 did not.
Also, when recovering from a hard brick, I followed this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-power/how-to/guide-recovering-hard-brick-t3989753
But I kept getting errors.
SOLUTION: I used the files from this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=82206511&postcount=112 and it worked immediately.
After the blankflash, I was able to get into fastboot mode, but was not able to flash the stock ROM. I got an error: Security Version Downgraded Preflash Validation Failed for boot
This is because the devices stock ROM was too new.
SOLUTION: I installed the Lenovo "Rescue and smart assistant" which automatically flashed the latest Stock ROM
I hope this helps.
Now I have a question for you: If anyone has flashed CrDroid and had CDMA SIM cards (Verizon) working well, including LTE and VOLTE, can you please let me know?

Unbrick Moto G7 Power XT1955-2.

LG G4 H815 bricked during firmware downgrade from Nougat

I have my LG G4 WIND bricked after an attempt to downgrade the firmware . I come to the problem. I own the phone in July 2015 and this phone was already in Lg for 2 months with replacement of the motherboard with change of imei because of the famous bootloop.
It seemed to go beyond that due to the fact that the usb tethering did not work when I connected it to the radio control of my drone a MIDRONE 1080p, not recognizing the connection or for brief moments and then disconnecting itself irreparably. Precisely for this reason I thought of trying a hard reset that first seemed to have repaired the tethering usb but lasted 2 days.
Expired the warranty in October i decided to update the firmware of Lg with Android 7.0 stok released in Poland, following the various sections on XDA and others.
I first rooted the phone successfully, then I installed a TWRP recovery and then flashed the firmware in a zipped version, all successfully.
Everything worked fine, the phone was fluid and always remained the problem of the first time the usb tethering above.
Suddenly I stupidly decided to downgrade the firmware to restart a firmware, this time I used the original Wind firmware the latest released in October 2016 v20j and I updated by LGUP, during the firmaware's update suddenly it stopped without going further the 9% and the screen was locked on the FIRMWARE Update and there was no way to unlock it even with other firmware tells me always invalid firmware. I took him to a laboratory in my neighborough where they made several attempts even with the boxes (but I do not know what they are) but nothing.
Now I know that it's an old phone (but I'm fond of the magnificent photos they do!) But I do not accept that some things nowadays can not be repaired (..... I'm a 50......).
Do you have any suggestions? Thank you

Search for "WindowsLGFirmwareExtract-1.2.6.1-Release" and download.
Search for "H81520p_00_0314.kdz" and download.
Extract .dz and .dll from the "H81520p_00_0314". Use both to flash with LGUP.
My advice is to unistall all the LG software on the computer, reinstall drivers and LGUP and flash it.
Good luck!
First flash H81520l_00_0124.kdz then can you your origin firmware.
Tuve el mismo problema (LG G4 H815p), lo solucioné así:
1. Download: w w w .mediafire.com/file/9wppttmb2u5yrt9/LGUP_8994.dll
2. Reemplazar LGUP_8994.dll en la carpeta c:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\8994\
3. Probé con varios firmware (sólo uno funciono). Es el H81520j_00_0627.kdz (marshmallow)
4. Instalo correctamente
5. Actualice a LGH815P Nougat 7.0 BySezerSimsek.tot
6. Problema resuelto.

Try other drivers. I spent two days (more than 8 hours per day), uninstalling/installing different versions of drivers, applications, and kdz files to fix mine from the last brick, I almost thought that it was for good...

Thank you very much, I used the DLL version 0.0.4.0 with the latest kdz H815V20P and it works perfectly ! :good:
For them who are facing to the same issue, here are the links :
DLL 0.0.4.0 => https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71596039&postcount=13
ROM H815 20P => https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71662559&postcount=39
It was not necessary to use WindowsLGFirmwareExtract to exctract DLL and DZ from the KDZ. I just had to replace the DLL in the instalation folder of LGUP and to flash the KDZ.

Unlocked H815 w/ TWRP v3.0.1 installed: Cannot install any LOS version.

Hello,
One of my kids SGS5 died so I borrowed an old (and unused) LG G4 H815 w/ Android 5.1 installed (and no available updates).
After a bit of mocking around, I managed to unlock the bootloader (via lg.com account) and somehow got TWRP v2.8.7 installed and after that, I managed to upgrade it all the way up to v3.0.1.
Any attempt to use any version above v3.0.1 fails (dtb not found).
When I try to install LOS of any version (14.1 / 15.0 or above), it throws an error (Error 7) and complaints about mismatched device ("this rom packages is for H815, this device is .").
I attempted to advance wipe the /data and /cache partitions to no avail.
I would imagine I need to a newer kernel and/or bootloader. Am I correct?
Any idea how I can upgrade any of them? Should I simply download a stock v6.0 ROM (of any region) and continue from there? Any preferable region (so I won't brick my device / relock my bootloader)?
Thanks.
- Gilboa
FWIW,
ROM version: V10a-ISR-COM
Software version (according to LG Mobile Support tool): H81520P.
Hardware model: LG-G815
According to the LG Mobile Support tool (under Windows) upgrades are unavailable for this phone.

When you were able to unlock your device on the lg website use LGup to flash h815 20p stock (international/global). And yes you're right that a stock ROM upgrade is needed to flash newer TWRP and custom ROMs. v20p is the recommended version for all avail custom ROMs
Many thanks for the reply.
In the end I decided to risk it, download some random unlocked stock Marshmallow ROM via twrp v3.0.1.
Once done, I managed to upgrade TWRP to 3.0.2 (which previously failed to install) and then (after reboot) 3.2.3.
Once I upgrade twrp, it managed install LinageOS without issues.
Thanks again.

[SOLVED] I want to update/change my rom to LineageOS 17(Android 10), coming from LineageOS 14.1(Android 7.1.2)

Hi there fellow Moto G5 users. I've been fiddling some time now with the 14.1 version and I want to try out the new 17 version with nightly's. Normally I've have no problems with upgrading or downgrading rom's for my devices, but since newer versions are now 64-bit it's throwing me off.
Since there are so many topics around with tips and procedures I'm a bit confused how to get started to migrate/change to LineageOS 17.
So could anybody help me on how to upgrade to LineageOS 17? As far as I know my phone has: a unlocked bootloader, TWRP with 64-bit support and LineageOS 14.1. What would the first step for me do?
As far as I understand it would be something like this:
(0. Backup up everything + written down both imei's) - done this in advance
1. Lock the bootloader again (whilst LineageOS 14.1 is still installed?)
2. Erase everything (with commands)
3. Flash an official Moto G EU rom (with commands)
4. Update it using OTA to the latest supported version to get a 64-bit rom/kernel/bootloader installed
5. Unlock bootloader again
6. Flash custom recovery again
7. Flash LineageOS 17?
That is what I'm thinking for me to do, is it correct? Or do I miss some stuff?
Any help will be appreciated.
Never lock the bootloader once you have unlocked it - if anything goes wrong in the future you will never be able to fix it without specialist hardware or a motherboard replacement
There is no need to lock the bootloader to change roms
See my post below that is basically answering the same question for full instructions on how to upgrade
Basically update stock firmware to latest retail then format data with latest offical twrp, wipe system data cache & flash rom
[SOLVED] LineageOS stuck at first boot (moto G5 xt1676)
Hello everyone, I just got a Moto G5 (on a refurbishment store) that works perfectly fine with stock OS. My goal is to install lineageOS on it. I managed easily to : - unlock bootloader - install TWRP (3.5.2_9.0) or the lineageOS recovery -...

Thanks for the warning, I will try your instructions and see what I can manage. Will post any updates.

Redmi Note 9 Pro Global : Trouble installing Lineage Recovery and Lineage OS (miatoll)

I need help installing Lineage Recovery and LOS on my Redmi Note 9 Pro Global version
I managed to unlock the bootloader but Lineage Recovery is messing with me. Once I flash it, I enter it, but can't seem to install LOS because it shows an error when I try to flash it.
Something in the lines of "adb: failed to read command: No status", or something like that. Also bricked the phone but managed to unbrick it.
On the official website it says in the instructions for the device:
Warning: Before following these instructions please ensure that the device is on the latest Android 11 firmware.
This is not necessarily the newest available version! Please up- or downgrade to the required version before proceeding (guides can be found on the internet!).
I thought I just needed to update my device with it's miui updater, but it seems I need to find this specific firmware version and flash it myself.
So if I got this right I first need to flash the firmware, then the recovery and then it should be able to install LOS?
Any idea where I can find this firmware cause there are a lot of files on the xiaomi official pages, not sure which to pick. Also, any good guides on how to flash firmware via adb?
UPDATE: Solved issue - Ignored the "error" and just rebooted to system after installation of LOS, no need for firmware. Just updated MIUI beforehand to newest version. Cheers!
