After using the motorola smart tools and trying to flash the smartfone
the device only starts up to the bootloader
the bootloader is locked
I'm not in the recovery mode he always jumps back to the boot loader.
if I connect the device to the pc then it starts without turning up in the boot loader.
is there still a solution, or do i have a new paperweight

Did you try blank flash yet?
Forget everything, and try to manually boot into TWRP.
Download TWRP for payton from the TWRP site (Img and Zip files for V3.2). Download and install Minimal ADB, Copy TWRP img file into the ADB install directory, put your phone into bootloader mode, connect to PC and run "fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-1-payton.img" on the ADB commandline. The phone will boot into TWRP. You'll have to mount the storage and copy the TWRP .zip file into your phone and flash that from TWRP. Now you got TWRP flashed as the recovery.
Now it's a matter of flashing a ROM. I'm not really sure about stock firmware because i haven't flashed them before, but if you want to flash a custom ROM, make sure you flash TWRP after flashing the ROM without rebooting into system or recovery.
PS: I assumed you know how to do this with this explanation. Let me know if you need more instructions.
the bootloader is locked and I cant unlock them
because oem unlock option is not activ
the last time my pattern was requested, nevertheless
I havent access to twrp. it was blocked
is there another option?

Do you try to get the unlock code on Moto website to unlock bootloader?

Ok. let me try.
After unlocked bootloader it will be display that unlocked boot logo for ever until you flash this on custom recovery:
LogoFixWarningv2.zip
But for that you need custon recovery.
you can use this:
twrp-2.8.6.0-titan.img
to flash custo recovery use this mfastboot
mfastboot-v2.zip
with this command with device on bootloader screen
mfastboot.exe flash recovery ''recovery name''
change the '' '' for the recovery name ex.
mfastboot.exe flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-titan.img
To do all that you need to re unlocked your bootloader if you re locked it...
so do the command
mfastboot.exe oem unlock UNIQUE_KEY
Where instead of 'UNIQUE_KEY' you type in your own 20-character key that Motorola sent you via email.
:good:
i managed to flash the recovery but how do i boot into it now?thanks also for the help but when i boot to recovery through bootloader it just shows a black screen :/

To boot to recovery you need to be in the bootloader screen.
press the down volume key to move the option to recovery and press the up volume key to enter recovery.
It will boot to recovery, is very fast to boot to recovery... But remember boot loader need to be ''device UNLOCKED Status code: 3''
That same recovery that i share is the recovery on my device so it work's. And is the last version available.
:good:
WOW finally!u are like a god to me right now i have been trying for days to reach the recovery menu!!!i just unlocked bootloader and installed the recovery but then it got replaced by the stock cause i booted into android and i couldnt get it to open then i just reflashed it and BOOM! AWESOMENESS!!!!!I AM SO HAPPY MAN!
nice :good: i'm glad that work... thanks.
Yesterday I thought I bricked my phone. I too also got stuck on the secure boot error 1003 boot loop. It happened when I tried to relock my bootloader with fastboot oem lock. Can anyone explain why that happened and if, after you obtain root, if it's possible to go back and relock the bootloader. I was attempting to get android pay working again, plus it flashes that message about having an unlocked bootloader. Is it possible to re-lock the bootloader after you have root, and if so, what did I do wrong. I finally restored back to factory using the lg bridge tool and download mode, which was a [email protected]#% to get into with a bootlooping phone.
Thanks in advance.

To answer your question, when you root the g4 on marshmallow using chainfire's systemless root, It on the fly flashes a different boot image, thus if you relock the bootloader after rooting the device on the 6.0 marshmallow firmware it will end up with the security error because the boot image has been "modified" and a modified image won't be allowed to boot if the bootloader is locked so the answer is unfortunately no you can't have a locked bootloader and have root at the same time, If you want to relock the bootloader on the 6.0 firmware to get rid of the boot image showing "unlocked bootloader" you should flash the KDZ for the 6.0 firmware in this case H81120i firmware and then go into developer settings and uncheck enable oem unlocking and also make sure you boot into fastboot mode, you can do this via the adb shell. another option to not have the "unlocked bootloader" show every boot would be to go back to the 5.1 firmware which did not have this. I hope this helps.
Thank you for a great explanation.
If you ask the people at xposed modules they may be able to do something maybe....
5.1 still displays bootloader unlocked message.

I have installed h815 KDZ files using LGUP. When i reboot it still displays Bootloader unlocked message. I can not use bootloader unlock/lock guide as I have bootloader unlocked.
Any other means to get rid of the message.
bump for way to relock h815
I unlocked my bootloader, installed twrp and several roms to try them out, then decided to go back to stock. Currently have OOS 3.5.4 installed with stock recovery (that came with the toolkit). However, whenever I try to lock the booltloader again, the phone won't boot up. It will bootloop, or just stay off with the led glowing white. I tried to sideload the stock ROM from OnePlus, but it fails after about 45% completion. I tried both 3.5.3 and 3.5.4 and both fail after about 45%. The only way to get the phone to boot again is by unlocking the bootloader again, then it boots just fine. Tried unlocking with the toolkit as well as fastboot oem lock. Both give me the prompt on the phone, then wipe the phone and go into the bootloop.
Any suggestions on how to re-lock the bootloader? I want to be able to get the OTA update, which I think will fail with an unlocked bootloader. Note, I have also tried loading the Nougat update from settings - system update - local upgade (both full and update) and they also fail to load shortly after booting to recovery.
Thanks,
TR
Instead of using the toolkit, try just doing it manually.
fastboot oem lock IS the correct way to lock the bootloader.
If you're running into all those issues, try to reflash the stock rom from the official site. OR try this
NOTE: This WILL wipe everything on your phone so make a backup first!
First Unlock booloader1. On your phone go into Developer screen (Settings --> Developer Options)
If you don't have this go back to Settings --> About Device. Tap "Build number" 7-10 times to unlok developer options
2. In Developer Options turn on "USB Debugging" and "OEM Unlock"
3. Open ADB in command prompt and go to the directory where ADB is.
Type adb reboot bootloader
4. Once your device is in fastboot mode, type in fastboot devices to make sure your device is listed
5. Type in fastboot oem unlock to unlock your device bootloader
You can check to make sure it was properly unlocked by typing in fastboot oem device-info.
6. Reboot into your system
Files we need7. Download the following files:
TWRP - https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/oneplus/twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img
No-verity-opt-encrypt - https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip
Magisk - http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
Phh-Superuser - https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3988488&d=1483407725
Latest Stable Nougat Rom - http://otafsc.h2os.com/patch/amazon...s3TOxygen_28_OTA_035_all_1612310259_2dc0c.zip
8. Copy all the files to your phone (keep the original on your pc just in case)
9. Load back up to fastboot mode
In ADB type adb reboot bootloader
10. Flash twrp img we downloaded above by typing
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img
11. After this reboot into the system
Install all of our downloaded files through TWRP12. Now boot into recovery by issuing the following ADB command
adb reboot recovery (you should go into TWRP)
13. Once you're in twrp flash the "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip" file OR you can format the data partition to f2fs to prevent the dm-verity error.
14. Now install the stock stable nougat rom we downloaded above
15. Do a factory system wipe / cache & dalvik
16. Install magisk through TWRP
17. Wipe cache/dalvik
18. Install phh SuperUser
19. Now reboot into the system normally.
NOTE: This *COULD* take a while since you did a clean install of nougat so just be patient and you should be good to go after this.
Thanks for the reply.
I did do fastboot oem lock, and it results in an unbootable system. fastboot oem unlock makes it bootable again. Not sure why. Also, whenever I do adb sideload <any_rom> it fails after about 45%. Not sure what's happening. Your instructions would get me to Nougat with TWRP and an unlocked bootloader, which may be what I end up doing, but I was trying to get back to fully stock, and locked again, so that OTA's will work properly. If nothing else works, I will go the route you suggest above.
Thanks again!
I just figured I'd try to get you to a working system/phone. After you get all that working you can probably lock your bootloader back to default. Now, I'm not 100% sure, but I believe that if you have a custom recovery you will need to restore that to stock as well before setting the bootloader back to locked.

I also have the same problem, after the bootloader lock the phone does not start.
I tried with all the possible procedures, also even the rom flash in local and sideload it does not work, It comes to 45% and then fails.
we will highlight the problem, so everyone will know and maybe there is a solution

But of course, you can't relock phone with a non standard recovery. Replace TWRP with the ROMs real recovery and relock will work again.
That's what I figured. Thanks for the confirmation.
Use the unbrick tutorial to go back to stock
This is what i did

I'm sorry, even with the stock recovery but does not work, it was the first thing I did
You can a unbick tutorial. It worked for my OnePlus 3T. Just search up How to unbrick (whatever OnePlus device you have) on Google. Then follow all the instructions carefully. If you need help with it I could try to do a remote session with you. Edit: It will erase all data and you will boot with oos 3.5.3 ( I also had the same issue as you. But I couldn't install any zip with stock recovery or adb side load.

Only if you have modified the phone in some way or another (like rooting and installing twrp) before trying to re-lock.
If you keep it stock, you should be able to re-lock. Or else, just use the Qualcomm restore method to re-lock.
tried this
OK what i did was when the phone was starting and vibrating I push the power bottom and volume down bottom at the same time ,then i connected the phone to the PC,from the panel in the phone there are 3 categories to erase everything on the phone I did it all(1,2,3) and then I put the phone in ADB mode from the control panel in the phone,After that I flash via fastboot the original .zip from one plus for the version 4.0.3 (1.4 GB) ,when it finished I restarted and the phone started normal again,I hope this help someone alse,I was so desesperated:silly:.
I think the problem in re-locking it is the modified boot image. Locked bootloaders don't support those.

I was able to flash global miui 9.5.
Hi ,
So after finally the bootloader is unlocked I tried to flash the global rom via mi flash tool.
Update failed and an error message is update crc list failed !
I tried flashing back the chinse rom and I get the same error.
I can boot the device to recovery mode, but its mi recovery 3.0, I have 3 options:
1.wipe data
2. boot to system
3. connect via pc suite
tried with pc suite but it says my device isn't supported.
The computer recognizes the device via MiFlash tool but in adb via cmd when I type adb devices I get blank row and its unable to find the device.
how can I make my phone usable again please?
I have tried many things I found on google but nothing worked.
Thank you all
Hi
Is fastboot mode able?
Try to unlock again.
what do you mean able?

I waited 700 hours for the unlock and the phone is unlocked.
can you explain please what is fastboot able and what do you mean to try to unlock again?

yes the phone is in fastboot mode, and I cant back to normal mode for regular use.
I tried to unlock again like you said it the program said the device is already unlocked.
Have you tried the first option, wipe data?
Don't panick, since you have fastboot mode it's not bricked. Let's start by booting into TWRP.
Download TWRP and put it in the same directory with your FASTBOOT.exe file.
Open a windows dos prompt and get to the same directory as your FASTBOOT file.
Reboot your phone into FASTBOOT mode.
in your DOS prompt type "Fastboot boot yourrecoveryfilename.img" (change the yourrecoveryfilename.img to the TWRP recovery image file you downloaded)
your phone should reboot into TWRP if there wasn't an error. TWRP won't be permanent (if you reboot out of TWRP it won't retain it), but will allow you to flash ROM.
I've only ever flashed all my ROMs through TWRP, never used anything else since i unlocked the phone.
Let me know how this goes.

Hello all.
Big screw up, I think. So I've had my MI 8 for a while now, no issues, until today I decided to install official lineage on it. The bootloader was unlocked. I flashed TWRP, but every time I rebooted the phone, it would go back to stock recovery, not TWRP. So here the issue started:
- Via Mi flash tool, I reflashed global MIUI 10 back to stock. I didn't realize I had relocked the bootloader...
- I tried reflashing TWRP without realizing I had relocked the bootloader.
- Thinking that the TWRP flash was done incorrectly again, I simply wanted to go back to stock, and attempted to use the mi flash tool to reflash, once again, the global stock MIUI 10. the flash tool said it was a success. (I still didn't realize I was on a locked bootloader)
- I am now on a bootloop. I can't get past the stock recovery screen, but I can go into fastboot. The recovery screen has a warning that the ROM cannot be used on the phone.
- I tried re unlocking the bootloader with the unlock tool, but because my Mi account credentials are not input on the phone (the phone was wiped clean), I cannot re unlock it.
What can I do? How can I get out of the bootloop, and hopefully re unlock and flash global rom clean again?

I finally got around fixing this. It turns out my phone was China, with Global ROM. So I did an EDL test point method and paid someone with an authorized account to access my laptop remotely to Flash the latest China ROM. I waited the required period for bootloader unlocking, and it's back alive!
I'm running official lineage 16, and I'm pretty happy with the results. I'm Using it as a daily driver instead of my all stock pixel 2 XL. No issues.

I thought rooting would be the same as my 7 pro so I ran

Now whenever my phone boots up it goes straight to the bootloader. Selecting Recovery Mode or Start both boot back into the bootloader.

can"t access through adb either?

You could then flash original boot.img for your current software.
Maybe you can extract the original boot partion from payload.bin and flash it back.

Firstly. Why did you flash it?
You should only boot images, that way you won't end up like this.
All you need to do is boot the original image. Not the patched one that obviously didn't work.
In the future. Just type fastboot boot then the name of the image.
Once you're in, open Magisk and click direct install.
