i soft bricked my pixel 2.. can anyone help?

i unlocked the bootloader used twrp to install magisk and installed a custom kernel, all of that went fine, then i decided to try and flash twrp which also worked... reinstalled magisk and kernel etc and it was getting stuck at the google logo,
i then decided to try and uninstall twrp and now i do not get the google logo, it won't go past the bootloader screen, bootloader seems to be functional and is accepting fastboot requests, however, the recovery is not working no matter what option i choose it will always take me back to the bootloader, tried reflashing stock images to get it working again but im getting an error with the bootloader remote command flash error.
any help is appreciated

Download the factory image for your current build.Unzip.
In flash-all, remove the -w so it doesn't wipe your device.
Ensure you have newest ADB &Fastboot.
While your device is in fastboot:
Code:
fastboot devices
Ensure you see your device serial number
Double click flash-all
That should reflash recovery so you can start over.
NOTE: You cannot flash TWRP, Kernel, and Magisk all at the same time. It causes issues.
Read this thread: [GUIDE] Unlock/Flash/Root for the Pixel 2 (walleye). There are a lot of people that have had issues and have had help solving within it.

Are you on 8.0 or 8.1?
Which bootloader are you on?
If you are in the bootloader, does it have the error line at the bottom?
If you cycle your volume buttons and reboot bootloader, does the error go away?
If the error goes away, try flash-all again.
If not:
From the bootloader, try booting the TWRP image.
If that works, reinstall TWRP using the zip.
Ensure you are using the 3.2.1.0 IMG and ZIP. Mismatching will cause problems.
I think you might have caused an issue when you deleted the TWRP recovery without replacing the stock recovery.
This post here might help.
Replace the Magisk with current version.

You probably have already done it, but ensure you have the newest ADB, that's what screwed me up.

I had the same problem turns out I wasn't using the latest platform tools.
I couldn't do anything. Would boot strait to bootloader. I couldn't even power down and plug I to charge. It would take me to bootloader with an error. I managed to screw up even more by flashing the wrong image using old tools. Then I lost all options except bootloader ( no recovery or download mode).
I feel as long as you have an unlocked bootloader and you are able to use fastboot you shouldn't worry. I'm only saying this because I was scared as hell haha.
I did notice it would try to boot when switching boot slots. But I screwed that up too by trying to flash with old tools. In the end all I needed was latest Platform tools:
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html

oh as a side note my problems are all the same as yours i can only access the bootloader and adb will not recognize my device but fastboot will

this is what happens if i try to flash the version with the same bootloader as the one that it says is on the device

It still sounds like you are not using the latest tools. Are you installing the platform tools or are you using the extracted zip?
the script is going to use whatever is installed on your system.
The first thing I did was download: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
I used this image Android 8.1 stock: https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/taimen-opm1.171019.011-factory-2df1c1cb.zip
I extracted platform tools to my desktop. I opened the file location and did a Shift > Right click - within the folder containing the tools and opened CMD or Powershell( or you can just CD to the directory).
I copied all the commands from the script and ran them one at a time making sure I was using the tools from the zip file and not my system.
and just went down the line.

im doing exactly what i'm being told to but i'm still getting the same remote command flash error and the boot slot is set to a it won't let me change it to b

okay i have an update i'm all up and running again everything is fine, turns out i had to download the older version of oreo 8.0.0 from november the latest november update, then i had to download a slightly older version of fastboot and that seems to have fixed it just ran the flash-all batch file thanks everyone for their input

Nice! Now that I think of it I did try flashing Oreo 8.0 before I tried flashing 8.1. 8.0 didn't work by itself tho. So then I flashed 8.1. Maybe that's the trick to fix the partitions.

Thanks a lot

Thank you for the idea of using an older version of fastboot. I somehow screwed up my Pixel 2 and loaded bootloader 59 on it and couldn't update it back to 66. I had the right image but was still using the newest version of fastboot. Ended up with 26.0.2 which was the first version with Pixel 2 support. It can be found here: https://xiaomifirmware.com/downloads/download-platform-tools-adb-fastboot-r-26-0-0/
Thanks again! :good:

Unlocked my pixel 2 and tried to root through magisk and kinda screwed it up. Tried flashing older Oreo 8.0 and 8.1 as you guys tried before but now I cant get past the fastboot screen. Whenever I try to load the earlier 8.0 it tells me it requires 8.1 to upgrade. any ideas would help

My dude, you would not believe the hell I went through to figure this out. So it started with me getting the Verizon Pixel 2's bootloader unlocked. I downloaded TWRP onto it, rooted it, and then downloaded a ZIP that would add various modifications to my version of android. Well, I downloaded it, flashed it , and of course it didn't work as intended. Tried finding a way to undo what I'd done (absolutely imbecilic me, I didn't back up my phone WHEN THERE WAS NO SYSTEM IMAGE FOR A VERIZON PHONE YET). I figured the Google images would work fine, but they put you through hell and highwater before they do. I attempted to revert to the current stock image. It screwed my whole system up. Couldn't boot into android, couldn't boot into ANY recovery, etc. It was essentially bricked. I went through countless different errors and threads and forums and files, until I found this one right here. Tried reverting to the old version of Oreo with old ADB and fastboot. Progress, no more error popping up. Then I tried booting up and it stayed in fastboot. Tried then updating to the latest version available from Google as you had and got the exact same line of code. With the OLD ADB AND FASTBOOT and with a file I had downloaded and tinkered with earlier and with the LATEST IMAGE FROM GOOGLE (after your step), I tried it, came up with several "faileds" and other errors, but after the script was done, I rebooted and it got to the boot animation (as it had done before) and FINALLY brought my phone to the setup wizard.
The file I used was this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2/development/tool-deuces-bootloop-recovery-flashing-t3725778
Recap:
Download old ADB and Fastboot
Download the latest Android 8.0 Oreo Stock Image
Flash all bat
Download latest Android 8.1 Oreo Stock Image
From there, put the downloaded script in with the image file of the latest available Android 8.1 Oreo Stock Image and run the script.
Should show errors
Reboot once it's finished
Should be fine.
Keep in mind, this was a Verizon Pixel 2 and it worked fine for me. Couldn't guarantee it'd work for you, and there may have even been precursor steps before this post that I took and didn't keep track of that might have contributed to an extremely lucky brick save.
Long story short folks, if you're on an unlocked bootloader Verizon, don't do anything you can't live with for a while until we've got a proper backdoor developed for us.

Read my message right above your original post. Get the image for oreo 8.0 (nov) and use the fastboot version fron the site I linked to. Should have the 59 bootloader. After it boots, just do the OTA update twice. Check the build number and then get that image from Google to root the boot.img file. All good.

Yupp, just used the tool and saved a couple hundred bucks and a pair of underwear. Really is phone saver. And I'm for sure going to wait until a less risky root is available. I was able to flash the tool with factory image 66 version bootloader, just make sure to have tool in the same folder as the unzipped bootloader and files.

I haven't posted in at least 2 years. Wanted to thank everyone in this thread for the detailed troubleshooting. I locked my bootloader without doing the prep work and this saved me from a fiasco the week before my vacation.

[GUIDE][ROM][STOCK] XT1766 Stock Firmware & Restoration Guide

Moto E (4th Gen) xt1766 Sperry
Stock Android 7.1.1 Firmware
Fastboot Restoration Guide​
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Because there are reports of devices becoming bricked due to downgrading, please disregard this thread and firmware. This is a link to the newly added factory firmware package for the most current build version for the xt1766 SPerry. Please go here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e4/how-to/firmware-restoring-moto-e4-xt1766-t3820749
DISCLAIMER: Please take note that the following stock firmware package is not the official Motorola firmware package, nor is it signed by Motorola. This is a package I have compiled with partition dumps from a pure stock & unmodified Android OS. I have tested this procedure, as have other members, and no adverse issues have arisen upon installing the firmware. However, I am not responsible for devices bricked or otherwise rendered inoperable as a result of installing this firmware or using this guide. You and you alone are responsible for your device. Because this guide does involve fastboot flashing bootloader and other sensitive partitions, follow the instructions to the letter. One mishap while flashing a bootloader partition can leave a device fully inoperable. Also, I have only used this guide on Virgin Mobile variants of the xt1766. It should work on the Sprint and Boost Mobile variants as well, but I cannot personally confirm that at this time.
SPECIFICATIONS:
Hardware SKU: xt1766
Carrier/Provider: Sprint, Virgin Mobile, Boost Mobile
Android Version: 7.1.1 Nougat
Build No. NCQ26.69-64
Radio: M8920_15000.280.06.58.02R
Kernel Version: 3.18.31
Security Patch Level: January 1, 2018
NOTES: This firmware is the most recent version of the stock Android OS. It is completely unmodified.
REQUIREMENTS:
--An unlocked bootloader;
--A PC or laptop running Windows 7 or later;
--Motorola Device Manager: https://motorola-global-en-aus.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_detail/a_id/86934/p/154,4222;
--Minimal ADB & Fastboot (v1.4.3 or later): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1Sfod4HWfk2T0hia0k3Y3pIczA/view?usp=drivesdk;;
--Rudimentary knowledge of fastboot flashing;
--Device charged to at least 60%.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download the stock firmware package from the link below and save the files in your ADB/Fastboot directory on your PC. Boot your device into fastboot/bootloader mode and connect your device and PC with a suitable data sync cable. Open a command window within the ADB/Fastboot directory and execute the following set of commands:
NOTE: The larger image files (system.img & oem.img) will be automatically dissected into individual sparsechunks and incrementally flashed by fastboot. You will initially receive a "header size" error, but just be patient and wait. Fastboot will resolve this and flash the images.
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash aboot aboot.mbn
fastboot flash cmnlib cmnlib.mbn
fastboot flash cmnlib64 cmnlib64.mbn
fastboot flash devcfg devcfg.mbn
fastboot flash dsp dsp.img
fastboot flash modem modem.img
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.img
fastboot flash keymaster keymaster.mbn
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash prov prov.mbn
fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
Now boot your device normally. You should now be updated to the most recent pure stock Android build, and your device will be fully capable of installing future OTA updates.

this is useful. :good:
but please it would be more good if you move this to the Qualcomm section, because seems you posted it in the MediaTek section.
Please do move it so other users don't come wondering what to do and bricking their devices.

Thank you. I sent the thread link and a PM to Az Biker.

Update: The Sperry xt1766 received an OTA update today for minor bug fixes, stability improvements, and security patches for March 1, 2018. The OTA is Bkur_Version 26.11.68.sperry_sprint.en.US. I will be updating this thread to the new build updated by the OTA. In the meantime, should you wish to revert to pure stock and install the OTA update package, the above fastboot firmware package will put your xt1766 in a pure stock state, and thus capable of installing the OTA update. NOTE: Many people skip recovery.img in order to retain TWRP custom recovery. Here, flashing stock recovery is necessary in order to successfully install the OTA update package.

Hey friend, thanks again for pointing out my oversight. Moderator Az Biker helped me out and moved the thread.

Ok guys, on a positive note, I just successfully flashed a modified OTA update package with TWRP. I think I figured out the bug that was giving me Error 7 previously. So I am working on both recent OTA packages, for patch level January 1, 2018 and March 1, 2018. Hopefully now I can get these fixed and posted and make for a simple means to update stock firmware, without having to gruel out 25 fastboot commands and without having to download large files. Wish me luck. I thank you all for your support and encouragement.

Restore in emergency mode
Greetings.
I would like your help to restore a MOTO E4 XT1766. It does not start with fastboot, because the bootloader is corrupt. The phone connects in emergency mode. I need the file "prog_emmc_firehose_8920.mbn" to be able to restore it. Any idea where I can find it?

error cannot load gpt.bin
I have my phone in fastboot/bootloader mode. Should I be in recovery? I can run the command "fastboot oem fb_mode_set" but I cant run the command "fastboot flash partition gpt.bin" I get "error cannot load gpt.bin". Moto E4 XT1766 Qualcomm any help?
Edit: I am sure I have the files in the same folder as adb and fastboot.

After successfully using this method, a few days later I was prompted to install May Security Update NCQS26.69-64-5.
I said ok, it downloaded and prompted me to restart. I did.
I rebooted into the initial boot screen, with "bad key" text.
Then it proceeded to "Installing system update"
Then came the Android on his back, with the error! (red exclamation)
Had to power off/on. It restarted and then showed the screen "Software Update Unsuccessful"
Any idea on how I could successfully install the may update?
Thanks!

The bad key is just because the bootloader is unlocked. No big deal. Not sure why the ota failed. I just flash the firmware with rsdlite. Just downloaded the latest firmware available, which was not May's patch, then took the update after I booted up and set up the device. What carrier are you on? Mine is virgin mobile, same as op.
Check in "about phone" and see which software version you're on. My wife's failed once, but when I checked, it had updated.

I am currently on the March 1 Security Patch, NCQS26.69-64-2

Screenshot is just like any vanilla Android device. Power + volume down.
Did you root or modify the system in any way? That will cause an ota to fail.

I was originally rooted, but after running the commands in this OP, I did nothing else.
I did save the results of all the Fastboot commands, please see below. A couple commands toward the end gave errors.

[Solved] Can't update OTA with flash_all.bat

Hi,

Did you try flashing the system image instead of the OTA? Also did you try a different cord?

Click to expand...

Sorry, in fact I use the factory image because there is no flash_all.bat in the OTA zip.
I will try with another cord but I'd be surprised it would change anything, as all other operations worked well with this cable...
Also, I can't enter in recovery mode : when I enter into recovery mode, I don't have any options : it says "No Command"... I don't know why.

Ok i tried the other way with OTA updates via recovery.
Thanks for yout help !

You can only access phone by means od ADB if "USB debug" got enabled in Android Settings -> Developer options & phone got rebooted afterwards.

But my phone is stuck in bootloop and can't able to boot and change developer settings Also I am not able to get into recovery mode

Because Fastboot is working, as you say, it should be possible to re-flash phone's Stock ROM.

Before flashing you have to disable dm-verity and/or AVB using Fastboot
Example code
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta <vbmeta.img>
what you've to do with all existing vbmeta images, of course

Seems to me vbmeta.img you passed to fastboot isn't suitable.

I have downloaded the right firmware of the same model number.
So what should I do now?

To be honest: IDK

Can you please tell me, Is this happening because of any motherboard issue or is motherboard damaged or it is only android problem?

I don't what could be the problem with your phone. But it stuck on the Moto logo I would recommend you to do a factory reset once. You may lose your data in it but you may get your phone back.
To-Do factory Reset Try this:-
1. Press and hold the power + volume down button until some sort of text appears on the screen.
2. Then by using the volume button navigate to Recovery mode and then press the power button to select it.
3. No command screen will appear.
4. Then hold the power button and just press the volume up button once.
5. You will be in Recovery mode.
6. Select the factory reset option and press the power button.
Then Restart your phone.
If it worked for you give a like.

Hope it may help someone save their phone without need to change motherboard.

[Resolved] Unable to recognise device in "fastbootd". [All] Pop_Os! 21.04

Yesterday I was trying to install CalyxOs on my Pixel4a. I followed the instructions on the website and then got stuck when the screen switched to fastbootd and the device was no longer recognised. The phone got stuck in `<waiting for any device >.
Prior to entering fastbootd, I am able to recognise my device by running `fastboot devices` but not `adb devices`.
The end of the logs from running `sudo ./device-flasher.linux `:

Failed to lock sunfish <serialnumber> bootloader
Things I have tried:
- Different USB port (2.0 and 3.0)
- MacOs install
- Ubuntu 20.04 install
- Flashing Sunfish from flash.android.com (same issue - phone goes to fastbootd and is unrecognised)
- Running as root
TLDR;
- `fastboot devices` in bootloader mode recognizes device but `adb devices` does not
- Entering fastbootd mode `fastboot devices` no longer recognizes my device
- CalyxOs install and stock android install get stuck waiting for device in fastbootd mode

Solved: The issue was the USB cord I was using.
Tried another and it worked
