hey guys!!
well, i've tried to root my nexus 5 and...got stuck i a twrp bootloop :/
is there any way to get back to a "normal" android stock rom or something like that?
bootloader is unlocked (LOCK STATE - unlocked) and fastboot has access to my device (fastboot device shows my phone).
thanks for any reply, i'm a little bit scared of it...
greetings!!
Hi.
You can use wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolkit and that will help you out in going back to stock ROM and others.
Also, can you explain further what you've done? Since you've unlocked your bootloader and have access to TWRP, just flash a ROM that already has root and you'll be out of the bootloop
For ROMs look in the Android Development/ Original Android Development sections.

Hello,
I'm trying to install TWRP on my wife's TFT300T. Its lagging and freezing bloat apps hasn't helped. It's rooted stock 4.2 with a locked boot.
I rooted it with motochopper, and tried installing the latest 4.2 (2.6) with the terminal method and it didn't seem to work. I get an error when trying to access the recovery menu. I tried using adb/sdk, but I don't see the usb option fro fastboot.
I have the latest unlock tool from asus, but I want to be sure I need to unlock the bootloader. I have everything backed up with titanium, but I'd like to get a recovery of the stock too if possible.
If someone could confirm I need to unlock the bootloader that'd be great. It hasn't specially said that I need to unlock the bootloader in any of the 5 or 6 topics I've read. Thanks!

To my knowledge and for a bit of backround the reason the tf300t needs to be unlocked to install twrp is any kernel package you flash needs to be cryptographically signed, the key for this has not and wont be released by Asus, meaning if you try flash twrp without being unlocked, the bootloader looks for a signature on said package but doesn't find one so its not accepted, unlocking the bootloader disables these checks so we can flash what we want.
Short answer
Yes you need to have an unlocked bootloader to flash unsigned kernels
Guys i really sorry for this noob question but im kinda lost whit this phone...
I was using a moto x but this droid ultra its different.
Actually my phone has the 4.4 firmware and im already rooted (used towelroot) ¿there is any way to unlock the bootloader for free?
EDIT: Im lost... Completely lost.
Towelroot doesn't work, towelpieroot its temporal, I can't flash twrp via "app" or fastboot (cuz boot loader locked)...
I dont know what else can I do... Sorry if this was asked before but I can't find answers in the forum.

Update first then flash twrp. You won't lock the bootloader. Once unlocked you stay that way.

Thank you Casey, ¿even if i flash motoboot.img whit rds? That file contain the bootloader. Just in theory
I just bought this tablet and it seems to have updated itself overnight (that or my kid did it) I want to root it , but it says it's running 5.0.1 now.. if it's possible, could someone walk me through this? I've been reading thru the various root threads, and having no luck-I'm on Ubuntu latest and have adb and fastboot installed..anyone feel like helping me out?

I did the above but with a slight change. I just booted CWM instead of flashing it so till running stock recovery but rooted.
I did this from 5.0.1 after unlocking the bootloader which was a piece of cake. There is a great guide on this forum.
Hi everyone,
I guess I need a bit help, I switched from Samsung devices to HTC and the rooting / update procedure etc seems a lot different than what i was used to.
So I have tested a bit with ADB and fastboot and managed to unlock the bootloader and root the device and install the TWRP.
But now my problem starts:
How can i update to a new android stock-version without losing my data? OTA is not possible due to TWRP, right?
Flashing Roms with TWRP is not possible with S-On, right?
So what are my next steps?
Buyng sunshine and then flashing via TWRP? Or is there another option?
I dont want the CM13, i just want to be able to update the HTC Stock versions with Root and a custom recovery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
André
Today I tried to install twrp from this link
Install TWRP Recovery on OnePlus 9/9 Pro [Android 13]
In this comprehensive tutorial, we will show you the steps to install the TWRP Recovery on OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro devices.
www.droidwin.com
I have the CN version (LE2110 ) with Oxygen 11.2.9.9.LE25AA. I was able to make it unlocked but on the step where I am in the temporary TWRP I can't now browser to any files I copied before. I have no access to the SDCARD, to flash TWRP permanent.
Is there another workaround to get TWRP running on the OP9 and root it after?
thanks
Andy
Great the twrp from op9 pro works perfecet. magisk and root as well. thanks very much for the great work.
Is there a way to disable the unlocked message which appears on the boot?
what happen if I lock it again? does TWRP and root work then?. Bit scary to try as yesterday I was hanging in a boot loop with trying twrp...)
thanks
I unlocked the bootloader with adb fastboot flashing unlock.
what do you mean by MSM?
right now I am on stock rom with all updates, TWRP with Magisk and root.
should I look the bootloader with ad fastboot flashing lock ? Do I still have TWRP and Magisk with root running after I lock the bootloader again?
thanks
Do not ever lock your bootloader with TWRP installed or root! It can and very likely will brick your device! You can only get rid of that message by going back to stock without root and without TWRP and then relock. You have been warned, do not even think about it
Hi,
ok thanks for the information, then I better leave this message,
thanks
Hi,
ok I will leave the message then.
thanks to all for quick support
It is/was "possible" to remove, but the difficulty and risk are not worth it.
