I made sure everything is up to date. I'm trying to flash the 5.0 OTA, but it keeps failing and I don't know why. I went into platform tools and pasted the extracted lollipop download, held shift and right clicked, opened up the command prompt and did the following. I made sure USB debugging was enabled. I've also tried it by using the command adb reboot bootloader from the homescreen to get into fastboot. It doesn't matter what I do, it always fails the same way. I have never had this issue. What the hell is going on?

So I have an Honor 8 FRD-L04 that I was trying to root today. I flashed TWRP and all was good. Until I tried to install SuperSU using TWRP. It said my data partition wasn't able to be found or something, I can't remember. So I did some quick Googling and tried some fixes (changing the partition format to FAT and back to EXT4, etc). This just screwed it up even more. So here's the scenario:
*Can't access ADB anymore, doesn't show up in devices
*Can access fastboot, however:
I usually get "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)" when I try to do any commands (bootloader is unlocked). Because of this, I can't flash extracted .IMG files.
*eRecovery tells me "Getting Package Info Failed"
*Don't have access to TWRP anymore
*Have tried multiple firmwares using the dload method, either they can't install or simply do nothing
*I've tried Huawei Multi Tool and got the following output:

This is really bad. The solution to your first problem was to simply remove encryption by formatting data.

I'm going to cover the basis here, as I've seriously screwed over my phone before but recovered.
If you managed to get the phone responsive with the rollback package try flashing the EMUI 4 package.
If that doesn't work, plug into the computer and press and hold the power and volume down buttons to get into fastboot: unlock oem if possible
let me know if that gets you started.

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.

Is there anyway of unbricking it.
Tried holding the down+power button for 10 seconds
Tried holding the up+power button for 10 seconds.
Charging it for 10 minutes and holding the power button for 10 seconds.
Removed battery and reinserted holding for 10 seconds and plug it in my laptop.
Nothing.
Please help if you can, is there another trick I can do.

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.

Thanks for the reply.
I am currently on the March 1 Security Patch, NCQS26.69-64-2
On Sprint network.
I can't figure out how to create a screenshot with this phone, but here is the link from the Update popup: https://support.motorola.com/us/en/solution/MS128968

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.

If you're reading this, you must've messed up with your device or you don't want to use custom ROMs anymore and want to revert back to stock ROM.
Going back to stock ROM is not easy on Redmi Go as Xiaomi is not providing the right ROM files. The one (Version: V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM) that is available on their ROM download site is not flashable on Mi Flash Tool or via fastboot. It will give you an error.
But, there is a way!
Follow the steps below and you can surely get back to stock ROM. (At least it worked for me every time)
CAUTION! Please proceed at your own risk. You are solely responsible for what you're doing. I will not be responsible for any kind of damage to your device.
Requirements
- Unlocked Bootloader
- Xiaomi USB drivers installed on your PC
- PC/TWRP
- microSD Card
- Minimal ADB & Fastboot (If using PC)
- V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM ROM zip file (Download here
-V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM (Download here
At first, unzip the V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM zip file. You will find a folder named images. Open it and look for "recovery.img". Copy it to a safe place (you will need it later).
Then, copy the V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM zip file to your sd card.
Steps, if you're using PC
1. Install Minimal ADB & Fastboot (Download here)
2. Copy the "recovery.img" file that you extracted earlier, to the directory where your "Minimal Adb & Fastboot" is installed.
3. Run "cmd-here" and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Turn on recovery mode on your device by pressing and holding Volume+ and power button together.
5. Once you see a "No command" screen, hold power button and press volume+ button and you should be on the recovery menu.
6. Select apply update from SD Card and locate the V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM file.
7. Select "Yes"
8. Reboot system.
Steps, if you're using TWRP
1. Copy the "recovery.img" file that you extracted earlier, to your SD Card.
2. Boot TWRP
3. Select Install
4. Select Install Image
5. Locate the "recovery.img" file in your SD Card and install it.
6. Go back to main menu and reboot into recovery.
7. Once you see a "No command" screen, hold power button and press volume+ button and you should be on the recovery menu.
6. Select apply update from SD Card and locate the V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM file.
7. Select "Yes"
8. Reboot system.
Your device should now be running clean stock ROM and recovery.

As I am writing here, Redmi Go doesn't yet have any official, nor nonofficial custom recovery that doesn't have major bugs. The easiest way to root Redmi Go, as I found, is to do it without custom recovery with Magisk, with adb and fastboot.
The problem I personally faced was that I installed the OTA updates, and in such case the stock rom's boot.img does not match with the new updated/altered rom that is installed through OTA update. So before patching stock boot.img with magisk, and flashing the patched boot.img, which is based on that stock rom, you have to have stock rom, instead of OTA updated one.
Before doing you probably have to also install xiaomi usb driver, and of course you have to unlock redmi go bootloader (as instructed here in xda forum in this redmi go section , - simply doing it by going to fastboot mode and typing a few words to cmd window through adb - meaning that can ignore any official long time-consuiming instructions that are actually obselete or doesn't work without possible bugs on the way for this particular device, as I tried).
Here are official stock roms: https://en.miui.com/download-365.html or search "go" here https://en.miui.com/download.html
This is the procedure (from official Magisk installation guide, source here https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html ):
Boot Image Patching
This is the “cool” way to install Magisk on your device. Either your device does not have proper custom recoveries, your device is using the A/B partition scheme and you don’t want to mix recovery and boot images together, or you have other concerns (e.g. OTA Installation), you should use this method instead.
In order to use this method, you are required to obtain a copy of the stock boot image, which can be found by extracting OEM provided factory images or extracting from OTA update zips. If you are unable to obtain one yourself, someone on the Internet might share it somewhere. The following instructions will guide you through the process after you have the copy of boot image.
Copy the boot image to your device
Download and install the latest Magisk Manager
Press Install → Install → Select and Patch a File, and select your stock boot image file
Magisk Manager will install Magisk to your boot image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.img
Copy the patched boot image from your device to your PC. If you can’t find it via MTP, you can pull the file with ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img
Flash the patched boot image to your device and reboot. Here is the command if using fastboot on most devices:
fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched.img
-----------------
Here's some slightly longer guide: https://c.mi.com/thread-1444861-1-0.html
Here is if you want to know how to easily restore stock rom (like in case of flashing boot.img that doesn't match with the rest of the rom like I did getting stuck at booting up, or you simply don't have stock rom currently for whatever reason, like having already updated through OTA).
https://www.foldertips.com/en/unbrick-all-xiaomi-snapdragon/
And after installing XiaoMiFlash and before flashing, have to reboot computer as well which was not said in the above instruction.
I would have made separate thread on how to root Redmi Go, here in this forum section, as it is obviously most secure way to rooting Redmi Go (secure, as for using official/legit tools instead of potentially installing something shady somebody has altered in ways of unfavorable to you, as well as secure that it is not really possible to hard brick it even if not following instructions properly) but I don't have enough posts in this forum to make thread here in this section so whatever.
Actually tried an easier way:
Just download the tgz file from mi website tiare_global_images_V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM_20190218.0000.00_8.1_66cc42a821.tgz
If you are on linux it is easy tar xvf filename

Hi, I have a doubt. My phone has the update of May 1, so I decided to do it root. Now unlock the bootloader, install twrp and flash magisk. the apps recognize me as root and everything is normal, so I did the right thing? or am I at risk of a problem? sorry for the question, what happens to understand your comment I had to translate in google and really only understood 80%, do not finish understanding why you had problems with your computer. could you help me? I already worry

I didn't use twrp at all.
I used Miflash instead of twrp as I told above, in order to restore previous state of the device.
If you did update, as one of the ways I see then, is to replace it with stock rom from which you are going to take the boot image from, to patch with magisk. Do no update. Root first. I have not updated so I don't know how the updating after rooting is going to work. No twrp needed if you just want root.

Thank you, this really saved me. A couple of days ago the hotspot stopped working properly after a security update (September 1, 2019). My computer would connect to my phone but it would say "No Internet, Secured". USB tethering also didn't work. I tried restoring to factory defaults, didn't help. So I figured I need to reflash it. The app used to unlock the bootloader didn't work, had to do it manually. The app used for flashing also didn't work, tried a manual approach - almost bricked the phone. Then I found this and it totally worked, thank you. PS: Now after the reflash it shows there's an update available with the size of 183,7MB. How safe is it to update this, since the original firmware(V10.2.9.0.ocleuxm) got screwed up by a security update?
edit: I have installed both updates 10.2.13.0.oclmixm and 10.2.14.0.oclmixm. It's working great. And locked the bootloader.

Glad to know that it helped you. And yes, you can update every time after restoring by using this method. It actually takes you to 100% stock condition.

Guys, download the Firmware from here. And if you have TWRP installed, just flash this. If TWRP is not installed, try using fastboot and boot to TWRP

I had exactly this issue.

You need to update adb fastboot.
Is the drive that you have the zip file saved on nearing it's storage capacity? I suspect it is.
They key line in your log is, "Zip: unable to truncate file to 485105848: File too large" You will get this file if there isn't enough room to properly unzip the file completely. It takes up a decent amount of space on the hard drive.

Should not be the issue since nothing was on the phone to begin with, other than the first running system.
My issue was resetting the path in windows.
https://www.xda-developers.com/adb-fastboot-any-directory-windows-linux/
If it helps this is what I followed.
Your phone should boot into fastbootd when flashing. That's when I realised it was flashing ok.

It's not the space on the phone. You don't download and install these factory images from your phone. You have to download them to a computer and install them that way. If you computer is short on storage space, it will give the same error when it tries to upzip the factory image during the installation process. I've had it happen to me before and had to clear up space on my computer in order to finish flashing a factory image.
For example, if you have ADB installed on your C: drive and your C: drive doesn't have several GB of storage space available, you will get this error. It won't help if you have space available on other drives, because ADB only interacts with the folder it is installed on. So having 100 GB free on another drive won't help as an example.

That as wll should not be the case or the unzip will be larger than 30 GB? That is the space left on my notebook

No. As long as that space is available on your main drive (see my edit above), 30 GB should be plenty of space. I'm thinking it takes around 5 GB if I remember correctly.

Hi,
so with the last post the update of fastboot worked fine and the flashing went well. Thanks! Stange thing was, it did not work under Linux it stopped at flashing vendor_b (nothing happend for half an hour or so, tried it several times with different Android 10 versions):
Code:

under Windows I didn't get this problem. So system is up and running again.
Thank you!

Glad to hear you're sorted. It took me a while to work out I just needed to update fastboot. Someone on XDA helped me with it.

I had the exact same problem as you did. I tried different versions of the stock ROM, I tried different versions of the fastboot tool (including sdkmanager --update to get to the latest, etc.). It failed at the same time, every time: "Sending sparse 'vendor_a'"
What actually worked for me was plugging the USB cable into a port directly on the laptop, instead of a hub built into the docking station.
**** you not, worked perfectly. Same cable, same fastboot binary, same laptop, same OS, just switching to a different port did the trick. Don't plug the cable into a USB hub.
