FP4 stucks after unlock the bootloader - Fairphone

Hello together,
today i tried to install /e/ OS on my new FP4.
I did everything like in the official description:
> ## Unlocking the bootloader
>
> 1. Boot the device
> 2. Enable and connect Wifi
> 3. Enable Developer options
> 4. From developer options, enable OEM unlock
> * Get the unlock code from [this site](https://www.fairphone.com/en/bootloader-unlocking-code-for-fairphone-3/) and enter it
> 5. Reboot on fastboot by running the command in the PC console `adb reboot bootloader`
>
> 6.*Tip:** All the console commands are run on an adb enabled PC and in the `adb` console.
>
> 7. Ask for unlock with `fastboot flashing unlock`
> 8. Approve with <kbd>volume +</kbd> then <kbd>power</kbd>
> * The device proceed with a factory reset, and automatically reboots
At 8 i maybe made a mistake, when you are in the fastboot mode, you can choose different options, i choosed something like FFBM or something like this. Then the device restarted and since that it always shows the "blue dots" like in the beginning but nothing more happens, since hours.
I turned it off and on again, without success.
I can not load the fastboot again via ADB, because the device is not recognized.
If i try to use the volumeUP or VolumeDOWN at the startup, nothing happens and it restarts again after a few seconds.
So there is no way for me to enter the fastboot mode again.
So I have two questions to you, lovely community.
One is, can anybody help me?
Second, can somebody tell me how the different options are called in the fastboot mode, so i can google it and do more research.
THANKS a lot and sorry for my english :slight_sm

Hi,
Are you able to launch the stock rom or are u stuck on bootloop or bootloader page ?
If you can launch the stock rom, enable oem, debugging and unlock bootloader in developper options.
Then connect phone to pc with the cable and type adb devices
see if the phone is recopgnized.
Then adb reboot bootloader and do all steps of the official guide.
If you use Windows I suggest you to put all file to your adb folder, type CD /path/to/folder/
And copy paste all commands at once, this will avoid error of mishandling during fastboot operations.
If you stuck on a "waiting for phone" when you are in fastboot mode, check you driver, or test with a linux machine or see Hulk's solution here
If you stuck on a bootloop just use the key combo to enter bootloader. check on the bootloader is everything is ok (unlock) if not redone steps to unlock bootloader, then flash recovery from /e/ os folder fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then enter in recovery use the combo key to have the menu choice between bootloader, recovery... then enter recovery and wipe data...
Then restart the official guide of /e/ os.
You may ask on /e/ os forum too many much more Fairphone user are there and can help you (link i gave you above).

Hello,
thanks for your reply.
I posted the same comment at the /E/ OS Forum as well.
I Can not load the stock rom, there are only this blue dots circling around for hours:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I can not enter anything else, using ADB is not possible because the device is not recognized and the combination of volumeUP and power or volumeDOWN and power only restarts the device.
Do you have a FP4 and you maybe can tell me which options in the top of the fastboot menu you can choose?
Something like reboot and so on.
I will try the solution in your link in a few hours when i have more time.
Thanks a lot and BR

Bootloader menu options are "start / restart bootloader / recovery mode / power off / boot in ffbm / boot to qmmi"
I don't understand your problem if your bootloader is unlock you must have accesss to bootloader.
Are you sure you didn't relock bootloader before checking the rom is correctly installed ?
Contact /e/ support to have the precise combo key to enter bootloader. sometimes it change from phone to phone.
Does your computer works well with adb and fastboot before ? did you already flash rom ? Maybe a driver is missing or adb/fastboot is not on the last version. You may try with a linux pc to aovid those problem.

How to Boot into bootloader mode
This section will be relevant later throughout the guide, when you need to reboot into bootloader mode.
Remove any USB-C cable and turn off your Fairphone 4
Tip: If you cannot turn your device off, remove the battery for about 5 seconds, then put it back in.
Press and hold the Volume Down button.
Insert a USB-C cable connected to the power (can either be a power outlet or a computer).
Release the Volume Down button as soon you boot into bootloader mode
For more details on how to erase the data on your FP4 refer this guide
I just try this and works great : power off the phone (if you can't just remove battery as said), press vol down and plug the usb cable
My phone has the bootloader locked and flashing locked and it works. try this

You are my hero.
I dont know how many times i read that but i was to stupid to do that correctly.
Now i tried it again and it worked well!
Thanks a lot!
Problem solved.
Just for other idiots like me, i choosed the option boot into ffbm into the bootloader menu, this was my mistake.

No succes trying to unlock my Swift 2x

Hi, I spent several hours trying to unlock my phone. Tried following steps:
* I made a full backup
* I did full reset to original settings: Androïd 8.1.0
* I got myself developers rights
* in settings turned on 'usb debugging' , 'OEM unlock' and 'advanced restart'
After turning off device and restart ('power/vol up' buttons), device started in recovery mode
* downloaded 'ADB + Fastboot-package' on Win10-PC and tried in every conceivable way to install but phone would not not connect; recovery boot indicated device was locked; PC did not recognize phone
and impossible to flash TWRP-recovery
* I installed Magisk-manager on phone with succes to avoid having to use a PC; but then flashing TWRP did not succeed
What did I wrong, what do I wrong? Suggestions VERY welcome. after all this I had rather not return to original OS. Thanks for your help.
With the phone in fastboot mode issue "fastboot devices" make sure you get a response.
Then "fastboot oem unlock - go"
Thank. you very much for your answer. Problem is that after rebooting with <power + volup> I get a menu with ao START (in green), Power off (i n white), Recovery mode (in red) and Restart Bootloader (in red). Further on I read FASTBOOT MODE (in red), product name etc., SECURE BOOT -enabled (in white). and DVEICE. STATE - locked (in red). How do I get my phone in 'fastboot mode'?
Thanks for help.

THIS IS FASTBOOT !
Thank you for trying to help. Of course I know how to get in fastboot mode. My problem is that in 'every' mode my telephone is locked, and I do not succeed in unlocking it. I cannot connect to another device, Magisk installation not complete etc. Again: I have developers right, I unlocked OEM, I did allow USB-debugging but no unlocked device!? What is going wrong, or has Wileyfox blocked the normal unlocking-procedure?

I have exactly the same problem. I do not have access to the phone and a hard reset leads me to having to enter a googe account synced with the device which I do not have the details of. I can enter the mode that you describe above and the FASTBOOT MODE is in red below. Now when I'm here and plug into my laptop wth USB and fire up fastboot.exe and issue 'fastboot device' it just says '< waiting for device >'.
Did you manage to make any progress on this issue at all, I'm really stuck!

Thanks robi0800 but I don't have access to the phone so I can't enable USB debugging which means I can't use adb. I am trying to use fastboot but when I issue the command 'fastboot device' it can't connect to the phone and just displays '< waiting for device >'. Any other advice on how to make my Win10 laptop recognise the device when I plug it in so I can use fastoot successfully?
Sounds like you are missing a driver you could try the driver from the package in post #8 above?
Thanks robin0800, I've tried that package with the original Wileyfox red USB cable, no luck unfortunately. My Win10 laptop can see the device in Device Manager but adb Devices will not list anything, neither will fastboot. I don't have access to the phone to enable usb debugging.

How to root Your MICROMAX IN1B (64GB)

First of all, before i start, I'll make this clear, i have done this procedure and rooted my IN1B successfully BUT if anything goes wrong with your device,
I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED DEVICES
PreRequisites (Stuff you will need)
So, Let's get into it.
Before Begining, Here are the things you'll need :-
1. A windows PC with all the necessary drivers.
2. ADB and fastboot which you can get from here.
3. A USB C cable, preferably the original one.
4. Make sure your Device is atleast 60% charged.
5. Backup all your data because the very first step will reset your phone.
NOTE- MICROMAX DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY USB DRIVERS. So i had trouble finding the Drivers too, so i recomend you use "Driver booster" it's free, you can get it from here. After installing the driver booster, let it scan and then update all the drivers related to "Android" and "ADB".
That's it, once you are done with all the above points we are good to start.
These are the PATCHED files you need to flash to root your device.
1. Get the files from Here
After you download the files, copy and paste the files in the folder where ADB & Fastboot is located, if you have not changed the Install location, it should be at this directory- C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
After you paste all the 3 downloaded files in the ADB folder, the process will now start.
Unlocking the BootLoader
The first step is to unlock the boot loader.
1. Connect your device with a USB C cable.
2. Enable USB debugging from the developer options-
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Now run ADB and run this command- adb devices As you run this, something like this should appear on your mobile-
4. Now allow it and Voila!, you are now connected!
5. Now find "OEM Unlocking" and enable it.
6. Now enter this command- adb reboot bootloader As you run this command your device will reboot and show a black screen with only "fastboot" written on it.
7. Now finally Enter this command- fastboot flashing unlock
8. Now it will ask you to confirm, if you change your mind and dont want to root now, press the "Volume-Down" Button or if you want to root, press the "Volume-Up" button.
NOTE- UNLOCK MAY VOID SOFTARE WARRANTY. FOR DETAILS, CHECK THIS (Read 6e)
9. Awesome! Now you have unlocked your boot loader!!
Flashing the Patched Files
Now remember you need the 3 files i linked above, once you get them, paste them in the ADB folder.
Make sure you DON't change the file names.
Let's Start!
1. Run this command- fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
2. After that, Run this- fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
3 And he final command, run this- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After all these 3 complete succesfully, Just run- fastboot reboot This will start your device normally, go on and set up your device.
1.As you complete the setup, you should see the magisk app-
2. Now the magisk app will ask you to install the full version, click on confirm and it will install the magisk app, you will have to turn on the "Unknown sources" option.
3. Once it is installed, you can ENJOY YOUR ROOTED IN 1B!!

VS986 in trouble /solved

Good day everyone!
I have LG G4 VS986 UsU /e/. I took apart and looked at the motherboard - VS986. But my camera hasn't worked for a long time. I tried all the firmwares for USU'd vs986, and the camera did not work on one of them. So I decided to try installing the stock firmware (maybe the camera will work on it).
In general, I started the firmware process, according to this instruction:
[UNLOCK][UNOFFICIAL][G4] Unlock ANY* LG G4 device with UsU
Spoiler: FAQ 28)b)
1. extract with SALT system + boot + modem partition of the stock ROM kdz of your choice (I took this one: VS9862BA_00_0525_ARB02.kdz)
2. flash them in fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash modem modem.img
3. boot TWRP (if you do not get into TWRP at the first try it gets overwritten. if that happens you must re-flash TWRP in fastboot) - here i am stuck!
4. flash the baseband package of your model
5. factory reset in TWRP (obviously all your data will be lost - so backup before)
6. if you encounter issues FORMAT data in TWRP (obviously all your data will be lost - so backup before)
But got stuck at point 3. The phone cannot boot into TWRP and FASTBOOT, but it can into DOWNLOAD MODE. Does anyone have any options on what to do next and how to fix it?

When booting into android you can use adb to reboot into fastboot with: adb reboot bootloader
...but the above procedure has to work in any case
Fastboot must work. Do you have followed the guide briefly?

Yes, I did. I tried to go in this way too, but it didn't work.

That was the point - Android did not boot completely (showed the installation of applications 1-33, and then rebooted and showed the splash screen).
I was able to start Android later:
I typed it, - I held down all three buttons (volume + and -, and the on / off button) - and licked out the menu with the proposal to format the data and answers "yes" and "no". After formatting, Android is fully loaded!
Alas, the camera still doesn't work. And now, when I booted through adb to Fastboot and flashed TWRP, I cannot enter the Recovery menu! Tried to go through the Fastboot command: fastboot reboot recovery; and pressing the buttons doesn't work either. The phone just boots into the system. Are there any ways how to get the Recovery back?

the process to enter fastboot works. 100%. maybe your volume button is not working properly.
yes you have to format data when you flash a new ROM. that is the case always when switching between ROMs - and stock is just another ROM so here you need to do that as well ofc.
fastboot reboot recovery does not work here. you have to use the key combo and if that does not work for recovery as well you likely have an issue with your hardware buttons. after flashing TWRP you have to boot directly into it otherwise it will be overwritten on boot. so adb reboot recovery won't work either. last but not least fastboot boot does not work when UsU'd.
so. first of all fix you volume button. maybe disassemble the back cover and see if you see dust/dirt anywhere near the volume button. try pressing the vol down button harder when trying to get into recovery.
if all that does not help and you cannot fix the button problem you could ofc flash TWRP in fastboot to both: the recovery AND the boot (!) partition. Then you can reboot and it will directly load TWRP. here choose reboot-> recovery to be in the correct slot. last you push the boot image from the stock ROM to the device and in TWRP press install (switch to "img"), select the boot image and choose "boot" as target. now you can reboot and TWRP should be still there. but honestly.. fix your volume button

You were right. The volume button "-" was not quite functional.
I thank you, steadfasterX, for your support. Thanks for the advice. All the best to you!

when I type Fastboot devices my Phone is not regionized what should I do?

			
				
Normally PC does not find your device as MTP device while you Hold POWER+home+volumeDown button(I mean fastboot mode without phone bootup).Coz it Shows device as MTP device after Phone bootedup(online).Maybe you tried install its driver as MTP by chosing manual install ? first download and install real usb driver(Adb&fastboot driver) of your samsung phone. https://developer.samsung.com/android-usb-driver then install it. then replug ur phone. Then go Device Manager of your PC,then replug your usb cable,and if you see New Device found like "unknow device or fastboot" then click them then click Properties on it, then click Update driver then click browse for Driver then click Let me pick from list then UNCHECK(unclick) "Show compatible hardware" then find your SAMSUNG ADB driver(if u cant see then click PORTS maybe it installed under Ports drivers) then click next to update it as Fastboot driver . but You can change your PC language to English for See same words in your Pc menus for I help you better coz im not German . but if already your secreen opens ? then you need go phone Settings / about phone/ Tap your phone Firm version 10 times and enable developer menu then enable USB ADB debug for install adb driver easily.if your phone screen not showing anything on screen . then you must just do fastboot mode by fastboot mode keys for install fastboot(samsung android usb driver or ADB driver another name)
When I am in the recovery mode then I see the MTP Window. When I am in the Download Mode I see the other window. I don't now waht the fastboot mode is.

Ignore what the other guy said above, fastboot is not a thing on Samsung phones. You can make it work with some patches however, but by default there is no fastboot.
ok can you tell me in detail so what do you think is the problem and wehre can I find these patches

There should be no issues if properly following the XDA thread's instructions.

Thank you for remaining me this option I forgot about it, but I installed a custom Rom, but I'd like to run again on the original software can I install it again. If not, it doesn't matter, but it would be better.
The Rom won't start, the start sign appears but doesn't finish loading.
