Hello , does anyone know how to get into AP fast boot with an encrypted phone? Or if its even possible to use
The latest 4.4 fast boot files to do a full wipe and restore to stock on encrypted phone?

Im assuming by encrypted you mean locked bootloader. If so. Use command abd reboot bootloader in the cmd prompt provided you have sdk installed

Bump..
Does anybody know what I'm referring to? I can't seem to get into AP fast boot... But my main question would be ...does anybody know method to reverse (any method at all) to get back to stock even though I encrypted my phone via settings---- security- "encrypt my phone" ?

. With that said , there is an added layer during startup you add a PW to unlock your phone And then it boots up... Basically my question is general around restoring to a fresh stock phone ..is there a method I can try ? I

Yes. Refer to my guide linked below HOWEVER ignore everything but the section about using RSD lite to FXZ flash the phone. Also substitute the 4.2.2 fxz file for the 4.4 file found at the same site that is linked for the 4.2.2 file.

Yes, I do know what you mean. I also encrypted my phone. When an encrypted phone is restarted, it first prompts for a passhrase/PIN code that's used to unlock the encryption key for storage.
I haven't restarted my phone since encrypting it (besides that first restart) and I am trying to see how long it will go without being restarted. I know - I'm weird - but I'm not wild about trying to figure out how to enter fastboot at the moment.
However, I saw a thread at android central where a guy factory reset his encrypted phone from recovery and was trying to get rid of the encryption prompt, and was able to do so from fastboot, so I think he'd know exactly what you have to do. The thread is here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/mo...ctory-reset-after-encrypting.html#post3396255
I'd PM drwtsn32 there - I'll bet he can help.

I finally restarted my encrypted phone. I was able to get into fastboot just like everybody else - hold volume down and power together from a powered down phone for at least 5 seconds, then release power while continuing to hold volume down - that starts Fastboot.

[Q] Impossible to flash bootloader/recovery/rom

Hi everyone !
Here I am in a really bad situation...
I bought a second hand phone with a rom issu and the guy who had it told me he ahd no time to waste trying to make it work again, I decided to buy it thinking that nothing could resist a factory reset via ADB.
But, and if I'm here today, it's because I'm in a such a situation, I need some help, and hope you guys can find a solution or at least some leads.
when I got it:
- model 16 GB D821
- The battery was not correctly attached in the phone (i did open it and put it back how it should be and seems to work)
- it is root, bootloader unlock, with Teamwin recovery version 2.6.3.2
- bootloader version HHZ11D
I can launch the teamwin recovery, it's asking for a password when it's starts, i don't know whay BUT I did a data format seeing that some people had some problem with it and did that to fix it
In Teamwin I got 0mb of storage and no OS installed, again it could be fixable via ADB
Now the best !
I can't flash anything on the phone. I can connect to it, it's well detected, I can control it (via ADB or Fastboot) and I can even had a temporary recovery with the nexus toolkit. but:
-Impossible to flash the bootloader, I do everything right, there is not "error" but at the end nothing changes, I'm back with the HHZ11D version and not the latest on I'm trying to get the HHZ11Z.
-Impossible to flash the recovery, same as the bootloader, version teamwin 2.6.3.2.
-impossible to flash a rom, and I don't have one anyway....
Here we are, I think I tried everything, but any clue would be appreciated. I hope I can fix this...
Thanks for your help.
And finally a picture of my fastboot -w when I do one, does it seem normal to you ?

Try in fastboot, fastboot oem lock. Then reboot and see if the bootloader is locked. I'm guessing it isn't and your emmc is bad.

S6 Bootloader and Modem Odin Flash Failed Red

Greetings, this might be a better place to post this. Up till now my roots have been ok and bootloader and modems are ok. But recently (yesterday) i wanted to use Xtresolite Rom again and wanted to update to newest recommend BL and Modem, however im getting a fail. I already tried a new computer so its not that. I never had this issue before and its a bit concerning.
The phone works ok, but i can no longer update the BL and Modem on it.... any ideas on how to get around this ? Reset it or something like that ? I have read that a possible complete FORMAT might fix it, but does that mean it removes everything on the phone including SDcard storage files or just the mainphone files ? Here is a screenshot of what i get in Odin, would really appreciate some help.

If you previously firmware (OI9 and new) had it, you can return to the boot loader only to release OI9.
Older bootloader cause an error.

Bricked? + FRP Moto G 3

Hello,
I have ran out of things to try with this phone - hoping someone out there knows if there is something that can be done.
Was given the device to remove the FRP (Factory reset protection). I set up fastboot, adb drivers and started messing around with it.
First of all, I tried upgrading to the newest MM version for it using the official images from the Motorola website - turns out it does not remove the google account lock, and the version was different than the ones they use in the 'FRP bypass' videos.
Then, I tried downgrading it to 5.1.1 (the same way I did to MM, using fastboot), and some of the commands failed - resulting in the phone not booting up, unless I go straight for the Vol down + power button to get to the bootloader.
Lastly, I tried flashing an older version of MM, only to get 'failed to validate system image' on boot (picture below). Is there something that could fix this/remove the damn FRP? The warranty does not matter, the thing is unusable - any kind of ROM etc. would do. Debugging is disabled.

was the phone stolen? because why would anyone hard reset their device, just asking.
dont know any solution for you
and btw.. NEVER try to downgrade your device it can cause problems, as you see
Not sure, it was given as a collateral for a job or something, and the guy disappeared. Basically, it is either try and make it usable or just throw it away. Trying to figure out what are the options at the moment.

You need to re-flash the latest firmware you flashed to your device boot again. To downgrade you have to unlock the bootloader first, but the OEM unlock setting in developer settings must be turned on, what I think you can't do with the FRP lock.

Ok, I flashed it again, it's 6.0.0. I even managed to get into the settings by doing the usual FRP bypass, however, this version does not have the developer options enabled by clicking the build number, and the 'users' setting is not there, therefore I cannot enable USB debugging like everyone does.
Your first error was upgrading to the latest version, because the newest version they have fixed.
I don't know if this will help, but in fastboot mode try to format system, and reflash the stock!

No, I have not. Had a real laugh though - I was able to access the settings - disable setup wizard - open chrome using google now, download apk's (like nova launcher) and have a home screen, browse apps all while FRP'ed. No go on the debugging/reset though :crying:
If can install apps try to root it with kingroot, and replace the stock recovery with TWRP, then format everything, and put another ROM into, after that reflash your stock. I don't know if you can do this without unlocking the bootloader.
I have seen some devices allowing do root + TWRP, without unlocking the bootloader. But you can try it!

Deleted OS

Hey guys hope you can help with my oneplus 7 pro. So I did not backup before rooting the device, however, I was able to successfully root it. The problem arose when I wanted to take the twrp official 3.3.1-2 and upgraded to 3.3.1-29 version. I flashed it on the system image in the twrp setting, but it ended up writing over OS. Now there is no OS on the oneplus 7 pro. Do you guys have a suggestion into how I can fix this problem? and bring it back into the rooted phone. I also was hoping if you guys know anyway to lock the twrp with a password in the future? thank you
1] Your TWRP should already have had a pin if you had set a pin (same one) when using the rom
2] Can you still boot into TWRP as recovery? If so then go grab the latest 9.5.7 :
Official : https://otafsg1.h2os.com/patch/amaz...ygen_21.E.11_OTA_011_all_1906040003_25c96.zip
My mirror on AFH : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117889610
You should be able to flash it using TWRP if you've not messed up too badly, then you may be back to default rom and can start again.
If you get that far then read the guide on the @mauronofrio TWRP properly and flash everything again. I've also uploaded a rooted 9.5.7 boot image here if you want to try that way instead :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79678478&postcount=522
If the worst comes to the worst then you may be able to boot into fastboot then run :
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-29-guacamole.img
Boot into TWRP and try sideloading the whole 9.5.7 rom instead

You could always download one of the fastboot ROMs and flash them again. You're obviously unlocked etc so all you'd need to do is fastboot flash system system.img. just make sure it's the same version.
ok since the update I was able to get the twrp installed again, but choose a wrong option in the reboot menu, something to do with edl, now the phone turn on at all :/
I give up, apparently people just can't follow instructions.

just get out of EDL, either hold down the power button or hold - and Power for like 10 seconds until u boot out of it
Ok so I basically pressed the volume and down buttom with the power button, then the phone recovered back to the when I first got it and it got uprooted. Anyway, the whole reason I was wanted to root the phone was so that I can lock the TWRP with a password. This would only give me access to hard resetting the phone. Do any of you guys have a solution to this? its a phone for my little brother, and I want to restrict his access to the internet, but he knows how to hard reset the phone using the volume down and power. however, if I can lock the TWRP with a password he cant get around that part as easily.

You might be able to do that with a guest account but you can't lockout TWRP with a password, it will use the pin applied to the phone. If you set it up as the default user with a pin then that's the pin that will be applied to TWRP so I would look at setting him up as a guest instead which should keep him out of TWRP too.

Can you get into bootloader? Completely turn off the phone. Then wait a few seconds to make sure it is off. Afterwards, press power and volume down at the same time until you see bootloader menu.
If you can get into bootloader, go to android flash tools website and reflash.
When the screen goes black to reboot, hold down power + volume down. You should boot to bootloader doing that. Then you can flash the factory image and that should fix it... I think. I've never used Pixel Flasher before. I just do everything manually myself.

Then you can can either download the factory image to manually patch (making sure to use platform tools r33.0.3 and NOT latest) or you can use android flash tools the website (If you use website, it's just follow instructions, select the image you want to flash, select options, then flash).

Are you rooted and do you have any Magisk modules installed? Sounds like maybe a Magisk mod may be in need of an update and caused a bootloop. If this is the case, you can choose to disable Magisk mods in Pixel Flasher and flash again.
Kind of hard to tell without much details given...
Worked thanks So much

Like what Lughnasadh said, it is hard to pinpoint the reason why it screwed up without enough information. Could be platform tools depending on what version you used. And it could also be your magisks modules that are causing the loop. Or the options you selected in pixel flasher. Not sure tbh. Or maybe an entire problem we aren't aware of lol.
Personally, what I would do is a clean flash. Cleanest way to do it. Just back up everything. Do a clean install of the image. Reroot and reinstall all apps/modules afterwards.
