Bootloop, oem, many problems - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there,
About year ago I've done an update to 6.0 android. Battery was charged near full and everything seemed okey. But, after update I faced a bootloop. So I tried to flash stock firmware and... failed. Many times. I'm unable to boot into recovery mode. Factory mode also isnt working. So, I tried to unlock my bootloader and flash another image, but when I try to unlock, I get a: "Check allow oem unlock in developer options". Sadly, I cant boot to check this option Is there any way to unlock oem without running android? What can I do? :crying:

You can flash the /persist partition from a device which has had OEM Unlock previously enabled in Developer Options.

How can you flash the /persist partition in a device with a locked bootloader? Doesn't this contain other information as well?
I think the real problem here is either the OP is not using the correct factory firmware image, or incorrect user procedure.

You are probably correct. Even with a locked bootloader, certain partitions can be flashed as long as downgrading is not detected. Example, if I have an xt1548 Moto G3 running on stock 5.1.1 firmware, and I have a locked bootloader, I can flash either an updated 6.0.1 stock firmware package or I can reflash the 5.1.1 firmware with the same build as the one already installed. The bootloader will, however, prevent downgrading. In flashing the /persist partition, the .img being flashed would need to be from an equal or newer build as well.
But again, your statement regarding the correct firmware procedure and/or correct firmware package is likely correct.

You can't flash anything except a bootloader. I was in this situation as MotoJunkie knows and nothing works. I did have a full backup of every partition on the phone and none flashed. Today I bricked it so badly that it doesn't even turn on anymore. My tip is to not mess with the bootloader and stuff and just use the phone normally as many things are encrypted on this phone.

Yes I recall your situation and your hard brick. I'm saying that under normal circumstances you can flash full firmware packages with a locked bootloader, as long as downgrading is not attempted.

You can't flash regular ones too. It has to be a newer firmware for the locked bootloader to let it pass

Mine was on marshmallow and it wouldn't want to flash marshmallow stock so what I was saying is that you can't go anywhere unless stock nougat is released for this device.

You obviously developed corrupt partitions some way or another. I flash stock firmware packages with a locked bootloader on a regular basis. You should always be able to flash the same firmware build that is currently installed on your device.

[HELP] how to downgrade Galaxy S6 from LATEST 6.0.1 (DPFX BL) to 5.1.1

hi, i really want to downgrade my S6 to lollipop but i have one of the latest bootloader (DPFX).
Downgrade was perfectly possible when i was on first build of marshmallow, but now, since i upgraded to DPFX bootloader, i have only fails with odin, and bootloops with custom roms...
is there any solution? if only i could flash an older bootloader, then i will be saved.
but if i flash an old bootloader with odin, i have a fail, so i don't know what to do
Some people suggested to me to use an old TWRP backup and i found it on my pc (with all partitions files: bootloader,system,radio and data, but i didn't use data) but using it, it's the same of flashing a custom rom: bootloop, and i suspect that the old bootloader never was flashed.

As far as I know if you're on a newer bootloader official or not there is no current method to downgrade. Maybe a phone shop has specialist equipment to do this but that's me taking a shot in the air
I was able to downgrade but not because i wanted, i flashed a corrupt firmware with ODIN and i have to do an emergency recovery with Smart Switch, my carrier doesn't have Marshmallow on the S6 so my phone restored in Lollipop

Good.
What version Android was your phone on before the problem?
Were you on stock (factory) or on custom ROM?
Surely you weren't on Kitkat for almost 3 years?

When you downgrade back to lower stock, you have to omit gpt.bin command. Because you have a newer bootloader.
This is also why you can't take OTA. Because it tries to install a different bootloader (which is probably still older than what you had with custom ROM). If you wanted stock 5.0.2 again, you have to flash full stock image and omit the gpt.bin command.
Are you able to use volume and power button to the bootloader screen?

Before this trouble, were you ever on stock Marshmallow 6.0.1? If so, you can flash back to full firmware of that, but needs to be the very latest. I'll find a link for you.
Also, do you have TWRP installed and did you have a backup you can restore?

OK, then that's the bootloader you were on and will always be on. You need to reflash that latest version (with the security update) to repair. Just reflash the entire full firmware.
There's a link to it here in this forum. I'll find it when I get home, if you don't have it.
Then in the future, if you try to downgrade, you always have to flash full stock version EXCEPT you omit the gpt.bin file. Whether 4.4.4 Kitkat or 5.0.2 Lollipop.
And you can never take OTA.
Because you really have 6.0.1 bootloader.

This is the most likely because all the methods say so old and not one was and when I try to pass any old stock also will not always get that error in the bootloader in the gptbin downgrade logs

You can not flash any older gpt.bin files. You have to omit (leave out) that flash command.
Your gpt.bin file is 6.0.1, and you cannot downgrade. Even on 4.4.4, trying to accept the 5.0.2 OTA update is still older gpt.bin file in that OTA than your 6.0.1.

Trying to Restore Phone to Stock (and a few other questions)

Hello!
I want to make my phone completely stock again. (Or as close as possible if completely stock isn't possible)
I unlocked, installed TWRP, and then rooted my phone yesterday (thanks to shashank1320's guide which made it very simple), but quickly found out that safetynet will prevent me from downloading and playing certain games on the Google Play Store.
After poking around online, it seems that even switching over to Magisk instead of using SuperSU will leave intermittent gaps in time where the app will be inaccessible due to the new workaround eventually being blocked.
So I want to go back. But like a derp, I forgot to create a backup beforehand.
So far I've unrooted through the SuperSU app itself, and flashed the BOOT.img and RECOVERY.img from Dazed No More's links in the Honor 6x Repository here.
After this is where I'm not sure what to do.
I think I need to find a factory system image to flash (and the vendor.img)?
I've seen a few threads saying that putting the UPDATE.APP in a dload folder into the phone and have the phone run the update worked (This did not work for me, although I'm not sure I have the right files; I downloaded it through a tech guide site here). I extracted the system.img and vendor.img from the update.app off that website using the Huawei Update Extractor, but I am afraid of flashing them in case they are the incorrect ones. But what if they are correct? Would I be able to recover if they are not?
Also, should I download and use unSU?
I know there is this guide on the front page right now. I've downloaded the Huawei Firmware Finder, but I... don't know how to use it. I narrow it down to the model number and that is where I get stuck. How... do I use it?
Some other basic questions I have in addition to this are:
Would I just have to flash the system.img and vendor.img through adb and then it will be stock again?
Would there still be leftover SuperSU files in my phone? I want to remove every trace of it. Would flashing be enough?
Am I even on the right track? And if not, where should I go from here?
Is the term "ROM" here firmware? Are the two terms interchangeable?
Ultimately, I would want to flash stock and then lock the bootloader again.
Thank you very much in advance. I appreciate it.
Edit: Wow I forgot to put any information, sorry about that.

Model Number: BLN-L24
Build Number: BLN-L24C567B360

If you have unrooted, foashed stock boot and stock recovery rhen you are stock completely. For safer side, you can just dload the current firmware whch will lock your bootloader also and remove those device unlocked and cant be trusted message on boot.

Thank you! Currently it's still tripping safetynet, but that may just be due to the phone still being unlocked.
Would it be fine to just lock the bootloader through adb now?
And are all traces of SuperSU gone like this?

Nope. Locking the bootloader will just do it and reset but wont change the boot.img which root modified.
You need to unroot, flash stock recovery and stock boot.img to get rid of it.

Samsung A11 got android 12 and I want to flash it (help)

So I first bought my Samsung a11 as an android 10 model,
I then flashed it after I bought it with an open-line android 11 version and got twrp and root. This was a year ago I think.
Now they released the final update for this Samsung phone model, and I want to at least get the latest and last version of my phone.
But I kinda forgot how to do the procedures again.
So my question is does flashing the new android version firmware using odin remove TWRP installed on my device?
my phone model is: A115FXXU2BUJ2 (android 11)
the firmware I want to install: A115FXXU3CV13 (android 12)
if so what do I need to do in order to successfully have both the new firmware I want to install and twrp installed on my device? (i kinda know how to root using twrp and magisk so no problems here)
Any help would be much appreciated!

Yes, flashing the update via Odin will remove TWRP and root, it will also, more than likely, lock your bootloader, then you won't be able to reinstall TWRP or root the device unless you unlock the bootloader, if it can be unlocked.

If the bootloader in the update is a securely locked bootloader, it will probably have locked bootloader after flashing and might not be able to be unlocked. That was the whole point of me warning you in my last post. Now I've had to post again just to say the same thing that I already said. I guess I was talking to the wind.
There is no way to know what the results will be after updating unless you find someone that has already updated the exact same model number of A11 or bite the bullet and update yours then see what you get.

I dont know guys with that phone but there should be a tool that bypass auth and unlock the bootloader in any case. I ONLY knows MTK devices, not sure about that samsung i use a .Bat file.

No, I said that after the update, it could cause the bootloader to be locked and then may not be unlockable from that point on. It depends on the bootloader in the update. If this happens, you will be unable to install TWRP or root via Magisk. That is why you need to confirm whether or not flashing the update will relock the bootloader during the flashing process and, if it does, whether or not it can be unlocked again after the update.
In other words, look at exactly what you are about to jump into before you make the jump because you might land in the one place that you absolutely do not want to land.

The question is, can I lock the bootloader with the old version of the official firmware installed without getting a brick. Because the old version of the firmware works smoother.
Locking a bootloader doesn't affect ROM actually installed: Lock or Unlock will wipe your data, that's all.

You still, or I didn´t find, that you mention the model of your device, that´s matter to have the right answer.
Also, it depends on which method you used to flash the ROM, if you officially, flashed the ROM, and the rollback didn´t affect your device, then it won´t do, locking or unlocking it.

The stock ROM can be installed on the phone at any time. Mostly via ADB / Fastboot tools.

My phone is Sony Xperia 1 J9110. I flashed it officially to the latest ROM through settings. Then I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the old stock ROM via newflasher. Then I decided to relock the bootloader with old stock ROM installed. Does this mean that I will get my phone bricked if I lock the bootloader with old stock ROM actually installed?

Yes, always that you flash a stock ROM, you can re-lock it, fastboot will erase the data as a security measurement.
