Okay so, first things first:
I can boot into both Recovery AND Fastboot
ADB Sideload does NOT work in my TWRP
Tampering bit is true and bootloader unlocked is false
My problem now is;
I need to unlock my bootloader because right now, my phone has no OS. I can't unlock it though because neither fastboot oem unlock works nor through the OPO Toolbox/Toolkit.
I can't flash anything to it right now and I need to find a way to unlock my bootloader, whenever I try to unlock it, it reboots to TWRP.
Please help. <3
adb push yourrom.zip /sdcard
Then just pick the ROM you just copied onto your phone storage using the above command in TWRP and you should be fine.
If that doesn't do the job then you can always use the brick recovery download tool.

Did you try flashing the OPO factory image and then start from scratch?
Hello everyone, I was in China recently, and bought my OPO there. Therefore, it came with colorOS.
I wanted to change it to the rom to SlimSaber. Unfortunately, I've been unable to do so.
To unlock the bootloader I'm using this set of instructions:
[GUIDE] OnePlus One - How to Unlock Bootloader, Install Custom Recovery and Root - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2788632
I think my problem is while unlocking the bootloader. I get into fastboot mode, and using the android-sdk devices I'm able to get the serial number of the phone.
But, when I run the fastboot OEM unlock, nothing happens. Everything should be erased, right? Well, that doesn't happen. After that, I enable the USB debugging, but after, when I'm supposed to disable the 'Updater recovery with system updates' I simply don't see that option.
Can anyone help me? Do you need any more info?
Tanks in advance;

Hi
I've had some hard time trying to unlock my GT-I9060I's bootloader (so I can install unsigned custom ROMs) but I didn't succeed.
Thins I've tried so far:
Installed Android SDK
Installed ADB and Fastboot drivers
Changed the android driver to Android Bootloader Interface
The problem seems to either be my computer not recognizing the phone in fastboot mode or simply my phone not booting in fastboot mode (even though
HTML:
adb reboot bootloader
rebooted my phone)
How can I unlock my bootloader?

how to unlock the bootloader in Realme 5i RMX2030
Here is a good guide that worked for me to unlock the bootloader:

The root part didn't work, Magisk complains about unknow boot image format

I've done the in-depth test and it's on the Fastboot screen but when I type fastboot flashing unlock in a command window it just shows me the help text for fastboot, which doesn't show any command or option for either flashing or unlock, so how can I get it to work if those aren't valid commands?
fastboot devices shows my phone, so the device is recognised.
EDIT: I'm still on Android 9 A.15. I understand that there's no unlocked for Android 10 yet.
EDIT: Nevermind. I was using adb/fastboot from the link in this guide, which is v1.3 https://www.ytechb.com/how-to-root-realme-5i-and-unlock-bootloader/
After I updated to minimal v1.43 from here it worked https://androidmtk.com/download-minimal-adb-and-fastboot-tool
My problem was same. But i successfully downgrade to color os 6. I guess you can try it too.
Enable USB Debugging and Allow unlock boot loader option in USB debugging.
Connect your mobile with PC and use following Command.
adb reboot bootloader
fastbook flashing unlock
Check mobile for unlock option.
How did you downgraded to colour os 6?
I'm trying to root my realme 5i that i upgraded to 10.

Hello, I have a vanilla Pixel 2 which corrupted itself and will not boot. It boots to recovery mode, but Bootloader is locked. I have not done a factory reset, and am attempting to recover the files. Fastboot mode works but will not allow temporary boot or unlocking of bootloader. I can access adb but only in sideload mode. OTA images successfully sideload but it still will not boot... After hours of scouring google I'm stumped. Any thoughts or suggestions welcome.
Hint: Add Pixel 2 to this thread's title thus mainly owners of such a phone get addressed.

I see that u want to keep your files but sorry to say this but your gonna have to do a factory reset because their is no other way to fix this
To do this boot into recovery mode and perform a factory reset
If u can't boot into recovery mode u probably have to unlock bootloader than install twrp
But that's probably only gonna work if u enabled oem unlock and enabled usb debugger before your device got bricked
Because if u try to unlock the bootloader with oem unlock and usb debugger disenable your gonna receive error when trying to unlock bootloader
Try to start in recovery mode. Otherwise only restore is the option.
You can start mobile in fastboot mode. You can back up mobile.
adb backup -all

On Android-side bootloader initializes ADB and mounts partitions. Hence check whether phone is accessible via ADB:
Code:
adb reboot
adb devices
If it is, and partitions got mounted, then you can fetch the user-data you are interested in by means of adb pull method.
