Hi all
A bit new to posting in here but am really hoping to receive some help from you all. Last night I installed all the standard USB drivers i.e. Android SDK pack and followed them all as mentioned. Then using the root tool from ChainFire I got to the little android guy after going through the process of unlocking the bootloader and gaining root, but the phone never actually rebooted.
Now when I try to flash the original fastboot files using the WUG kit I get "FAILED: remote: flash write failure" The same is the case with writing the boot img and recovery img. See attached.
I can put the phone into Fastboot mode only and it says lock state is "unlocked" but it would seem that I can no longer write anything to the internal disk as nothing will work or boot. I also get a status on my PC saying that the driver QHSUSB_Bulk could not be found.
Has anybody had a similar problem to this? Is there any way to somehow get this working again? And if I RMA with Google will they say my warranty is voided now that it says the lock state in Fastboot is unlocked?
Many thanks in advance guys any help is appreciated.

Does fastboot work properly? What output does 'Fastboot devices" have?

write "Fastboot devices" in CMD while phone is in fastboot.
What happens when you boot in recovery? Try that, and do a factory data reset.

Ok see attached. Also it doesn't allow me to boot into recovery at all. I used the WUG kit to temporarily boot into TWRP and tried a factory reset there but it says there's no ROM installed. It's like everything has been wiped and it can't write anything to the internals to read from. Thanks for you help so far. Any other suggestions?

Just... stop using toolkits for a second here! These automated processes got you here in the first place.
Try this command:
fastboot erase userdata
Does it succeed?

It seems like a brick. Something got corrupted. I searched far an wide on XDA and other forums, but no one with this problem has found the solution.
It seems that your last chance is RMA.

Ok thanks for your help. How this happens simply rooting a device following step by step instructions having rooted many devices before I'll never know. There was no interrruptions or reasons for this to have happened. Do you think they will take one look at it and say warranty is voided?

Who knows? Try it!
I don´t think the reason was CF-auto root. There must be something wrong with the device´s flash from the beginning. My thoughts are that you´r flash has a corrupted area which surprisingly wasn´t used for the stock factory flash and CF-autoroot triggered it while flashing a specific partition. Maybe i´m completely wrong.
I hope you´ll get it exchanged :good:.

I don't really know what happened. I guess there are always risks when using tools like this. That's why I always recommend rooting using the manual method.
I have no idea how google will react. In theory, a simple unlocked bootloader won't affect warranty. In reality, anything can happen. Good luck, and sorry!

It's a mystery indeed, it might not be CF but best way is to stay away from toolkits and do it manually.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507905
Does it respond to anything?
Will it turn on but just get stuck?
If it won't respond to anything at all then I doubt Google would say the warranty is void. They probably wouldn't know since it's dead.

Hi nah it only boots into Fastboot mode where it says down the bottom in red "LOCK STATE - unlocked" . Have tried every trick posted on here but it seems that during the rooting process somehow corrupted internal storage meaning it can't write anything to the phone (therefore not being able to reset to factory etc etc).
What a disaster.
Would opening the command prompt window with administrative rights make a difference? Worth a shot.

Oh I see.
Well like abaaaabbbb63 said, in theory it shouldn't affect warranty.
They would have to show that unlocking the bootloader caused the fault I presume.
Make sure you tell Google that this happened when using a toolkit and a script when asking for a new phone free of charge.

Hey guys. I had flashed gpe edition on my XT1032 to get lollipop and everythign was fine. Yesterday I decided to get back to stock in order to wait for 5.1 but since then i have messed up everything in my phone. The point in wich i am now is that the phone wont boot and will be stuck in bootloader warning screen and when in fastboot adb wont recognize my phone which means i can do nothing to flash a new rom or anything. Guys please help i really am desperate and i have tried everything.

If it says AP Fastboot Flash Mode at the very top, you need to work with fastboot tool, not adb. They're not the same.

The lines are due to the fact that you have a lollipop bootloader with a Kit Kat ROM. Upgrade to stock 5.02 or the latest CM12 and the lines will go away, except possibly in custom recovery. No lines if running stock recovery.

If you're running Kit Kat, it will stop if you lock and unlock the phone using the power button. If you restart the phone or your boot into recovery, the lines will reappear until your lock and re-lock again.
Hi guys
As you probably know by reading the title, i completely messed up. I was on the stock google factory image and decided to flash a custom kernel. I enabled usb debuging and oem unlock. after having unlocked the bootloader, I installed the twrp boot img and then flashed the kernel. All was well when i stupidly decided to lock my bootloader. Things crashed and now when i try to boot into my phone, the google logo appears and 1 seconds later crashes keeps doing it until i turn my phone off. My bootloader is locked and i think usb debuging and oem unlock are also disabled.
The same thing happens when i try to go to the recovery, it just crashes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated guys. thank you !!

I don't believe so since you're not the original owner. However, it doesn't hurt to try.
If you bl locked the phone w modified software ur boned. I believe that RMA availability is transferrable from owner to owner, however, I also believe that they will refuse to RMA a phone which technically broke because AVB is doing its job properly. You can try but I'd say your chances are slim. Sorry mate. Also future reference: if you don't have any reason in particular to relock your phone, just don't. You'll save yourself the hassle of having to do it again and it wiping the phone everytime any software thing goes wrong or anytime u want to upgrade custom ROM or kernel or anything of the sort. This goes for any phone not just those with android verified boot.

Yes they will know but they have proprietary software to forcefully unlock/reformat the phone properly if they so choose to actually accept the phone

Yep, thats right, another thread about a bricked OPO
I made the mistake of deciding to unlock bootloader, flash TWRP and run a custom rom, after about 10 minutes of being awake.
Long story short, my device is now stuck in bootloop. I have no recovery on the device anymore, not even stock OPO, and obviously no rom.
I belive this is because i ran the fastboot command, 'fastboot flash boot twrp.img' instead of 'fastboot boot twrp.img' either way....
Device will boot into fastboot, and I THINK, it boots into EDL. The device shows in device manager, and in MSM software, but there is no notice on the screen of the device.
I have tried to get back up and running using both methods below to no joy.

On the back of my device, there is a sticker, which displays my IMEI number, Serial etc etc, and shows the model of my device being GM1920, a model number I see no where in this forum. So now I'm thinking, "Do I have a device thats not compatable with all this, all i see is GM21AA, GM21AB etc etc.
Some body please give me something to go off, I've had android devices for 10+ years and have never managed to brick a phone into non exsistance. I can provide as much detail as you would like, anything that would help you to help me.

Anyway, the device works, I have stock rom, recovery, phone boots into EDL and displays the message as it should, everythings working right.

Hello all,
I did a big mistake, I wanted to go back from DP 3 to Android 11 and once I was going to do the CMD steps, I downloaded the wrong Firmware for the Pixel 5
I didnt see that mistake until I started the steps and the phone turned off and did not turn on anymore.
I know I made a big mistake, but can I do to revert this? I try to restart the phone but nothing, not via power button for 10 or 20 or 30 sec.
Please help

Mine bricked about a month ago and Google suggested uBreakiFix. They tried to do a force flash on it but it didn't work. They ended up replacing the motherboard which fixed it, but now my proximity sensor is always on. I don't know if they can fix that or if it will require another motherboard.
I have same problem, but i can go to bootloader. The problem my phone is locked bootloader and i don't have recovery mode. And when i try to flash it because of locked bootloader i can't do anything. Is there any solution for unbrick locked bootloader?

Only fastboot mode: can't find valid operating system
After flashing the 'right' OTA image for Android 12 DP3 the device cannot be restored anymore.
The image was successfully flashed by 'adb sideload' as recommended.
Seems that a locked bootloader is not 100% save from 'flashed to death'

Android flash tool immediately detect the locked bootloader and stopped without flashing.
I've tried to check/uncheck every option but no luck. I've used Windows 10.
Did you used the common USB driver requested by Android flash tool ?
Anything else that could be special, eg Linux environment ( what distro, version .. )
Any detail could help..

The image was successfully flashed by 'adb sideload' as recommended.
Seems that a locked bootloader is not 100% save from 'flashed to death'
600 EURO paperwight.

Windows 10 laptop, adb minimal drivers, made sure device was detected, attempted through fastboot and android flash tool, that's the only things I remember my apologies.
