Cannot enter into recovery; Suppressed ROM problem - no help given by its cook

Dear Xda'ers,
I am really desperate on the situation and need your help.
I tried every solution to get into recovery mod including SFT and others available, no luck in getting there.
The rom is working, so no bricked phone situation, problem is gapps terminates itself making email and other functions unreachable.
So I want to switch to either the official rom or another one which is in the forum.
Phone is roooted by the way.
Any suggestions?
PS. As put in the title, this roms cook told me that he cannot help me.

Hello.
If you just want to get into recovery mode, open terminal emulator.
Type
'su'
Allow it and type
'Reboot recovery'
Without '.
Works under cwm.
If this doesn't work.
Use smart flash tool.
(Quoted) ⬇
After flashing your phone should Boot into recovery.
Dont forget to do always a factory reset. If not -> bootloop
radkor said:
SmartFlash Tool completly erases device memory during flashing.
Phone will make Factory Reset at first boot after flashing!
You can upgrade and downgrade. You can downgrade from V20N too!
This also will remove phone lock if you forget unlock code or pattern. (phone lock, NOT simlock or network lock...)
This method doesn't need internet connection.
If you want to flash an LG P970H download correct ROM from link below.​
With this solution you can unbrick LG Optimus Black P970.
It fixes bootloop, "ERROR LG Security Team", and BSOD - blue screen with green writings (untested).

You need to install LG Mobile drivers. They are located HERE. [CRC MD5: e4614071e72c0292d3a8238908b5c7ba]
1. Unpack SFT.rar that contains SmartFlash Tool program.
2. Unpack, preffered C: drive, firmware pack BIN_LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011_0.zip
Inside there will be 2 files: LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011+0_AP.bin i LGP970AT-00-V10a-EEU-XXX-MAY-09-2011+0_CP.fls.

5) choose COM port.

Used ALL mentioned so far, brought it three different service centres, they couldn't manage to get into recovery as well
Any creative ideas?

power up your phone, then press and hold vol down + home key and then also press and hold the power button until the phone restarts. then it should boot into recovery.

ok it seems there is also an other way to enter recovery:
on switched off phone (and only then!) press and hold G-key + volume up and then press power key.
it should boot straight into recovery.

Cant you push recovery through adb/fastboot?

Do you still have cwm and the custom ROM on your phone? If yes, simply download quickboot or rommanager from playstore and hit reboot recovery.

Hi guys,
Tried the two methods from DuffBoon and wash beer - no luck.
I think there is something wrong with gapps as it gives an error when I try to download smth from Google Play- so no option to load any new app.
I go into terminal emulator, input 'su' and have superuser rights, than punch 'reboot recovery', it reboots but no recovery at all.
My diagnosis is CWM and gapps is broken somewhat; SFT or another method is not working for that reason.

But your system is still working? There is an adb flashable cwm recovery from redy06 somewhere here. Google:
Xda cwm touch redy06
And youll probably find it. You can flash it with the device on. There also is a reboot recovery script in the pack, so you can check if it works or not.

Thanks, seems interesting - I will try it and see whether it works or not (currently on Mac)

[GUIDE] Unbrick your device or recover from bootloop

Assalamu alaikum people,
Those on the telegram group know that I bugged you a lot about needing data partition. Because of my experience with unbricking and recovering the device, I can tell you a sureshot method that works to restore the device. Do not use this method if your device already works. There seems to be a lot of files inside the data partition which are necessary for the stock ROM to work. This method asks you to wipe data partition and so system update will not work. This should be a last resort. .
Many people seem to have come to the situation where they are in fastboot, and it says frp locked, so they cannot flash new twrp. And the system seems to be in bootloop and it does not work. What to do from there?
1. Download this file ->https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939832337.
2. In your SDCard, create a folder called TWRP and inside it, create a folder called BACKUPS (all in capitals). Inside this, create a folder called 7xtwrpbackup (small letters) and paste the contents of the zip that you have downloaded into this.
3. Boot to twrp in your device and go to restore. There you should see a folder 7xtwrpbackup. If you select it, you will get a checkbox below with recovery_ramdisk like this
{
"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"
}
4. Select Yes and after restore complete, go back and select reboot and reboot to recovery.
5. Now, the new twrp will boot. In the new twrp, I want you to first go to wipe -> advanced wipe -> select dalvik/art cache, cache, data, internal storage and system.
6. Come back once again and select wipe, and this time, select format data. It will ask you to type yes. After that is done, come back once again.
7. Now select install and in that, install the openkirin RR image from telegram group or here -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/rom-t3753555 (This step is optional because openkirin RR has a greater chance of booting than stock ROM. You can skip this step and directly boot stock)
8. Your system must boot now. If it boots, then all partitions are good. You can boot stock.
9. You can now can download stock from my post here and repeat from step 5-> https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/development/stock-img-unlock-indian-version-t3767569
If this does not work, then look at the second method in the next post

Second method
If your first method does not work, then you can try this second method. Make sure you have enough data left in your internet connection (1.8 GB ish) before starting the process. Please note that this method will lock your bootloader, install stock recovery, flash the stock system and boot your phone. Of course, even if it relocks the bootloader, you can still unlock it using your code.
1. Download the zip
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569970895
2. Extract it into sdcard directly (i.e. extract it to the root folder of your sdcard)
3. Make sure you have enough battery left (atleast 15%). Power off your phone. Now, press and hold vol up + Vol down + power buttons until the honor logo comes. Then, you can release all the keys. The system will go into emui recovery and restore your phone.
You will have stock phone at the end of the process.
Note:-If you still have bootloop at Honor logo, then power off the phone. Hold vol up + power button until the honor logo comes. It will boot into stock recovery. From there, you can do a factory reset and erase cache partition. Then the phone will definitely boot up.

To help you a full firmware is required and that's not available for (India c675) yet!
Before any modification to system you should have a full firmware in hand.

Thank you so much Is there any chance of you uploading a twrp flashable image of the newest p20 pro update?

Will try this when I get home. It doesn't replace eRecovery, right? So I can still recover if anything goes wrong? Also, best way to boot into TWRP once flashed?

As long as you flash the image to recovery_ramdisk it does not replace eRecovery, no. I actually used eRecovery to restore while testing my build.
Once flashed you can boot into TWRP via "adb reboot recovery" out of a running system with enabled ADB or via pressing VolUp+Power on a powered off device.

Many thanks a1Pha, just installed on a CLT-L29 8.1.0.106(C432), works flawless. Great job !

You can also reboot to recovery if your phone is up and running opening Magisk Manager -> Modules, three points on the upper right corner will give you the choice recovery, bootloader or download...

To be honest: This is my first Huawei and I am still figuring out how they manage their region-specific customization. Also it seems not so easy to get the UPDATE.APP for current builds. So no promises here - but I'll try to figure out and create a new thread if I'm able to build something.

Thanks given! I'll try this when I get a chance! This is a good start for this new device

How do you get back into eRecovery once you have flashed twrp?
Volume up gets you to twrp - is there a special key combo/sequence to get to eRecovery? I as as I have access to funkyhuawei. Also - how would one go back to stock with this installed? Sorry first time doing this for years

Ok so I managed to get into eRecovery by powering off and holding vol up and pwr until the phone vibrated, then release power and continued holding vol up until eRecovery appeared. If I wanted to completely remove TWRP and root etc once in eRecovery would it simply be a case of clicking download latest version and recovery? Then once recovered I could relock the bootloader? Or are there some other steps to do?
If anyone could help so I know for future reference that would be amazing. Thank you in advance

I used eRecovery after I bricked my recovery partition and ended up with a working stock recovery, so yes, that should be the way. I did not try to relock the bootloader though.

My Assumptions
You have unlocked your BootLoader.
You have flashed TWRP Recovery.
You have rooted your Device (Not mandatory).
What's happening ?
You Flashed Something & now getting Bad key Error & Device not Booting.
You flashed Boot.img & stuck here now.
You flashed Custom Kernel & stuck.
You flashed Stock Firmware & Stuck here.
You Flashed Rom, everything went well, but still stuck here.
Solution
Connect your phone with your Computer.
Hold volume down button for 5 seconds & then simultaneously hold power button till it goes to bootloader, now release the buttons.
Use volume buttons to navigate to recovery & press power to boot to TWRP recovery.
You will see MTP Mode has been Enabled & you can see phone's internal memory.
Dowload Latest Magisk Zip & place it in your phone.
Now click on Install option of TWRP recovery & install Magisk Zip.
Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache, go back & reboot system.
Voila, Now Bad Keyy will be replaced by N/A & your device will boot successfully.

There are no quick guides
You need
Computer with fastboot
Stock images for your region/device
Try flashing stock recovery first. If it doesn't work, flash stock images

Calm down if you still have twrp installed
install this one by twrp
before leaving twrp install twrp.img because if you leave without installing will be with recovery of stock
I always do this with this rom when I'm in trouble

Please Help!

Hello, I already unlock the bootloader, flash custom ROM, and rooting. My problem is Both ROM and TWRP are not launching. Please anyone can help me?

[Superseded] Crossflash US Unlocked Pie to your Bootloader Unlocked V40

SUPERSEDED: Go Here​
Prerequisites:
V35 Engineering Bootloader flashed to your device (Stock bootloader will NOT work for this)
USB 2.0 (USB 3.x does not work well with ADB or Fastboot)
The V40 Pie Conversion Tool
Be in fastboot mode before attempting this
Patience
ADB and Fastboot DRIVERS. Platform tools are already included in the archive
Windows. The tool is not designed for Linux.
This will NOT sim unlock your phone[/CENTER]
Note: I'm not responsible for any bricks that come about from using this tool. Once you crossflash, there's NO going back unless you have backups of your partitions, or a KDZ specifically for your device. I'm going to say this again, DO NOT use USB 3.x while attempting this. You will run into errors. You won't see anything for a little bit when it gets to flashing system_a and vendor_a because it has to load those images into ram.
Download the tool: Google Drive
1. Download the archive and unzip the tool.
2. Navigate to the folder you unzipped the tool to.
3. Enter the folder and inside the folder you should find "V40PIECONVERSION.cmd". Ignore the one with the "Stock Boot" at the end. All it does is flash the stock boot image instead of the TWRP that is required to do this.
4. Execute the batch file and follow the instructions. When the batch file is done, Pie will be flashed, but it will not boot due to encryption. We're going to disable that.
5. Boot TWRP by performing a master reset. To perform a master reset: Press and hold Vol- and Power. When you see the "V40 ThinQ" logo release the power button and quickly press back down. Keep holding Vol- and Power until you see a factory reset screen. Finally, follow the prompts (yes) and you should be in TWRP.
TWRP Instructions​
Head over to the wipe menu and format data (to remove encryption).
Next, head over to mount and mount vendor. Mount ONLY vendor.
Now, open a command prompt, navigate to the folder where you extracted the tool, and open a command prompt inside the folder (Type "CMD" in File Explorer's Address Bar)
{
"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"
}
Execute the adb command:
Code:
adb pull /vendor/etc/fstab.judypn
Edit the file (fstab.judypn) in your favorite text editor and on the /data mountpoint change "forceencrypt" to "encryptable".
Save and Close the file and push the file back with the command:
Code:
adb push fstab.judypn /vendor/etc
Now that encryption is disabled, you NEED to flash back the ORIGINAL boot image that's included with the tool. In order to do that, we need to get back into fastboot.
To get back into fastboot, we need to: Make sure USB is still plugged into the phone. Press and hold VOL+ (Or vol up). Power off the phone (Via TWRP reboot menu) while still holding vol+. Keep holding VOL+ until you see download mode flash for a brief second and you should be in fastboot. The fastboot you see now isn't the V35 Engineering Bootloader. It's the stock pie bootloader. Wiping the laf_a partition allows access to fastboot on devices that are locked (Nearly all US Carriers).
Finally, run the commands:
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a boot_a.image
and
Code:
fastboot format userdata
You should run into an "encryption unsuccessful" screen. Just hit reset phone. You may have to reboot once or twice to get to the setup screen.
For those of you that want root, here's a patched Magisk boot image: Google Drive
You can flash it by running the command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
Make sure you open a command prompt in the directory you downloaded the image in. If you don't have adb and fastboot in your environment path, just place it in the V40PIEConversion folder and flash it from there.

Contact @vbenkovskyy on Telegram. He is an awesome guy. Of course, it isn't free, but his prices are better.

Confirmed working - thanks Xsavi for an excellent guide!

Would this method work on the T-Mobile variant? Is there a fee [anywhere]?

You are very welcome! Feel free to contact me if you run into any issues.
On the plus side, your b-slot is untouched throughout all of this, so you can use that to re-root or flash backups should something go wrong, or update. Enjoy the pie.

thats what it ended up being. xSavi helped me out :good:

Hi guys,
I have a Sprint V40 bought off of Taobao that was rooted, sim unlocked, and crossflashed to US Cellular 11d but after I installed Pix3lify trying to get gestures on 8.1 I lost root. I don't seem to be able to get into fastboot, either with Vol- + cable or via adb, but I have an unlocked bootloader and I can get to download mode. Factory reset just reboots. Any tips as to how can I get root back, or upgrade to Pie? Can anybody please explain how to switch from slot a to slot b and vice versa?
