Bootloader issues
There is a great problem in unlocking bootloader....
Then only we can install custom rom...
Without unlocking there is no twrp/cwm recovery
if we dont have it we cant able to install it
you need to ask support team of tenor g by email...
I am always asking them but they are not giving us valuable reply

I was watching how to compile roms... But we will need a device source tree for compiling roms
Before that we neet to unlock bootloader
Can anyone try this command in fastboot mode and confirm if bootloader unlocks?
fastboot oem unlock
Make sure u have backed up your data because it will wipe data
I have my warranty for 6 months left? so can anyone without warranty test it out?
I will start development on it after i am confident enough on compiling roms and i get my new laptop?

Yep, I'm sure someone could test it for you......that someone is YOU.
If you want it tested, test it yourself. You said your device is under warranty, that means if you brick it, you can get it replaced. If someone that does NOT have warranty bricks their device testing this for you, they will be stuck with a dead device and no way to get it replaced, whereas, YOU CAN IF IT GOES WRONG.
You're asking others to risk their device for your own convenience to protect your own device. That is is being spoiled, rude and inconsiderate.

Be sensible? I was being more sensible than you understand due to your un-awareness to certain things about android devices. You've unlocked the bootloader and used ROMs on 3-4 devices in the past 5 years, great, that gives you experience with the devices that you own. That doesn't mean much when it comes to other devices, though.
It wasn't so much a matter of whether it was a potential brick or not, it was the fact that you ask someone else to test instead of doing it yourself. Generally, using oem unlock command does not brick a device....but, you aren't exactly right. Running the oem unlock command CAN and HAS bricked devices, they are device specific scenarios though. I have an RCA tablet that is unrecoverable due to using fastboot to unlock bootloader and that was on 4.4, long before all the extra security measures implemented by manufacturers and carriers today ever came along. Bootloader unlocking these days can be much more tricky than it was on that old device. So, as you said, do your research. I wouldn't have said anything if I didn't already know.
Also, you are aware that even if you tried the command and it unlocked your bootloader, you could easily relock the bootloader, which wouldn't void your warranty unless the manufacturer/carrier was standing right there looking over your shoulder when you unlocked the bootloader?

My point was to be careful what you post when it comes to unlocking bootloader these days. Bootloader unlocking gets more tricky by the day with all the coding and security measures used by manufacturers and carriers as time goes on. They are getting better at creating roadblocks for people like us. As these measures evolve, more and more users are breaking devices due to encountering security measures on their device that they were unaware of.

I did a search for "generic TWRP for snapdragon 625".
I didn't find anything, all I found was mention of using treble.
I'm not sure there can even be such a thing as generic TWRP due to the way it has to be built specific to the hardware in the device.

Typically, a locked bootloader won't allow this to work, the locked bootloader will see that the TWRP.img is not your stock recovery and won't allow it to boot.

Can I root the Moto G3 with an app like KingRoot?

Hi peps,
I just switched from my crappy HTC One X to my new Moto G3 and I'm in love!
I don't really want a custom ROM, but I'd like to undervolt this babe. But since a root requires unlocking the bootloader = voiding the manufacturers warranty, I don't really wanna do that..
I've bought it over Amazon and I live in the EU, so I technically still have the retailer's warranty and Amazon would replace it without a hassle, but yeah.. it's new and all.
But I know there are apps like towelroot, KingRoot and what not, do they work with the Moto G3? I'm on 5.1.1.

On previous versions of Android there were exploits that allowed rooting the phone without unlocking the bootloader, which means you could keep your warranty and I just asked if it works on the current Moto G3 with Lollipop 5.1, why do you have to be such a smartass?

Being a smartass is kind of my thing.
You're afraid to unlock your device's bootloader because you'll lose the warranty, but you're perfectly fine with risking the security of your device by rooting it, right? Seems odd to me, but whatever.
Generally speaking, both KingRoot and TowelRoot are used on devices where using those two methods are the only way to root those devices.
Unlocking the bootloader will have no ill effect on your device other than voiding the warranty, and, if you're worried about voiding your warranty, you shouldn't be trying to modify your device.

Who said I'm afraid of unlocking the bootloader? Who said I never unlocked the bootloader of other phones before?
I just don't wanna lose my warranty in the first two or three months, in case my phone breaks unexpectedly, I also don't plan on using custom roms, I just want the root features so I can undervolt like I said and IF I could root it permanently without unlocking the bootloader, why not?
I'm not worried, it would just be convenient to have root without losing the warranty, that's it.
As far as I know you may be able to do it search kingroot in Google then download the apk and install it then open in and follow the instructions

If you want the best of both worlds (root & warranty), then go buy a Nexus. Motorola drew a line in the sand as to what they will support, while still empowering owners with the option to unlock the bootloader.

Towelroot is exploiting a bug in the Linux Kernel in order to root a device. This bug was already fixed in June 2014.
On all Kernels with a later build date Towelroot will most likely not work.
For sure it will not work on the Moto G3 with a kernel build date more than one year after this bug was fixed.
Thanks!

It's probably been answered already but those exploits are security flaws with the SE Linux system and so with each release of android these have been patched, by 5.1 these security holes have been fixed and now by locking the bootloader
It's like just locking down and modifications to the system partition so unfortunately you can't root without unlocking, unless you have android versions lower down

What version of TWRP did you use coz I know there were some bugs on the moto range with TWRP 2.X.
I would completely wipe device using stock recovery, including dalvic/cache/data everything just to be on the safe side, then download the TWRP zip to your computer and flash it on using ADB.
Boot up normally and move the superSU zip from the link to your phones internal storage. Then reboot to TWRP, select install and pick the zip file.
superSU.zip:
http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.com/3/6/5/5/4/0/1/BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651.zip?key=u0OeGV4-4s02KJXqrXJ-gg&ts=1466705675

Perhaps you can offer wisdom on this? I rooted my Moto G 3rd Gen once, wrecked something and had to go back to factory, then try to reroot again. Problem. No matter what I do in setting the device back to factory, the bootloader stays unlocked and reads the system software as "modified" which then seems to bork installing SuperSU. I install SuperSU via twrp and it goes fine, no errors, but when I reboot the system is lost in a loop of the "bootloader unlocked" screen.
So I cannot RE-lock the bootloader (ala setting the phone back to true factory) and after I flash SuperSU the phone refuses to successfully bootup.
Any aid? Ideas?
I had failed to backup my phone the first time with twrp and so to set to factory I downloaded the stock retail xml.zip for my phone and reflashed the entire thing via fastboot. Reinstall twrp, and try to root and the endless boot loop begins.
So I came to this thread to look into the possibility rooting my phone via another means that MIGHT work.

flashing modded recovery error(illegal)

hello guys
i intended to create a custom recovery
i have done several methods like grabbing a exact specs recovery and modding it according to my phone
and i flashed it to my phone

but after that when i am going to recovery it saying that
"this phone has been installed a unautorised version of android and contact the customer care for any problem"
indirectly it saying that the recovery i installed is a modded and we wont allow such kind of things ,so reinstall the original firmware

You omitted to mention the phone model which is important in troubleshooting.
And it sounds like you tried to flash a custom recovery to a device that has a locked bootloader which usually leads to these kinds of results.

You're probably wrong. Only Mediatek powered phones can be modded without unlocking their bootloader (and even that's limited because it no longer works with newer chipsets).
Anyway, the message you're getting clearly means that the Bootloader is blocking unofficial softwares. You should probably ask the manufacturer for bootloader unlocking procedure.

Thanks for your enthusiasm but my method does not Unlock the bootloader so you should change your thread title.
As I told you I will open a thread when the method is fully tested by a few advanced user's who are testing it now and you will be given full credit for all your help.
I do not want to risk anyone bricking their phones due to rushing. Many none advanced users bricked their sony c4 phones by Not following my instructions so I need this to be 100% clear and fully tested I hope you understand.
I understand you @bigrammy by flashing twrp bootloader will automatically unlocked !

If the bootloader was unlocked fully you would be able to use fastboot to flash the device but we cannot so the bootloader is still locked to all intense purposes.
The secure boot chain does appear to be broken so we can use SPFlashTool to flash and boot our TWRP recovery but the secure boot chain may still be working if you have never unlocked the bootloader before like on Android 7.x. This means TWRP may Not boot up for everyone. Like I said it needs to be fully tested.

The secure boot chain does appear to be broken so we can use SPFlashTool to flash and boot our TWRP recovery but the secure boot chain may still be working if you have never unlocked the bootloader before like on Android 7.x. This means TWRP may Not boot up for everyone. Like I said it needs to be fully tested.

Actually, spflashtool bypasses the bootloader in this instance, so the bootloader is untouched and you still flash twrp

Not to be pessimistic, but you do realise that even with all your precautions,people will still not read properly and will still brick their phones, no matter how many precautions you take. Even if you had an app that requires you to click one button to do everything,there are still people who will do it wrong. That said I think I know of one or 2 people in this Nokia 3 forum who were able to recover their phones using spflashtool AFTER the phone couldn't even be detected by their pc, even OST flashing was not possible .
Another thing is, all the Nokia 3 is last year's phone, I wonder how many experienced users will be buying the phone now, and experienced people are probably not the best way to get something 100% tested, because they know the right steps to take.
I think you should make your method public after you hear from SkaboXD

Sorry I replied to your PM before seeing this.
True there is no accounting for people but I don't want to get bogged down by noob's. If you and maybe SkaboXD would like to open a thread and manage it using the method then that would be fine by me as long as credit is give to Riadh300 the original tester and who informed me SPFlashTool still worked and myself of course.
Please read my PM about the bootloader condition as I recommend only previously unlocked devices try this for now until tested by Advanced user able to recover the device should anything go wrong (EFuse Blown).

Alright I understand your point now. One thing I wonder though is: would someone on nougat who has never unlocked bootloader be able to flash ost?
Just checked my phone, oem unlocking was set to off so you're right, your method doesn't actually affect the bootloader.
I actually don't mind posting your method and giving you guys the credit, I just thought that you would want to be the one to do so.
Anyway I'll wait to hear @SkaboXD thoughts before I decide on whether to put up the post

Before on 7.0 I flashed a TWRP I was working on via SPFlashTool bootloader locked and ended up in a never ending recovery bootloop which none advanced users may find difficult to get out of now this may of been because I screwed up the TWRP or more likely because the bootloader was Locked.
I did not try any other TWRP's until I was bootloader Unlocked and I have not had the recovery bootloop since.
Not sure about OST as SPFlashTool is by far the best tool for MediaTek devices and recovery of said devices remember the SoC manufacturer knows best and I only ever see problems when the OEM's try to move away from it like Sony did.
Happy for you to take the lead I am too busy in other threads to worry about it

I will lock bootloader and try this method of rooting. I think that is this the best method because it doesn't affect bootloader so you can have OTA updates. Just what is the root manager, SuperSU or Magisk?
I think that we could make a thread when this mehod is tested on both Nougat and Oreo with locked bootloader. As far as i read, Oreo is tested so only Nougat remains to test.

OK, one thing though, before flashing the recovery you might want to do a backup of the stock recovery if you don't already have one. That's what I did, so after I got root, flashed back my stock recovery. Magisk is the root manager ,

oh you mean you went through hoops to get your phone back? I thought you would say you got a stock recovery somewhere and flashed using spflashtool or used the ost method. I didn't actually expect you to outline the steps you used. BTW, first time I flashed twrp AFTER unlocking bootloader, I got stuck in a recovery bootloop too. I had to flash my phone with OST then retry the process again.
One other thing, I think OST is actually a propriety software that is supposed to work for lots of phones, at least I know that users of other non mediatek Nokia phones also use it to recover their phones (with the corresponding stock images of course)

Magisk hide allows you get OTA's see the Magisk thread and yes it will work on any android version.
@redweaver
I am glad you got out of the loop but your clearly a more advanced user hence why I ask you to test. :good:
The OST is very convoluted for use on MediaTek devices and is very unnecessary it also requires unnecessary FIH software to be installed on the phone to work properly.
They likely choose this method to work across different SoC's but it's not what MediaTek use SPFlashTool is MediaTeks own software.
EDIT: Sorry lost internet for a while then.
I continue: Good news is I do not think they will be able to remove SPFlashTool use as it's binary on device which lives on a none volatile area ram chip or radio chip and is loaded at the factory so I doubt it can be updated via a OTA. :fingers-crossed:
Sony actually replaced this and this is the only device I have been unable to recover and even Sony were replacing the boards of bricked devices but if they had left the Mediatek binary in there it would not of been a issue as SPFlashTool would of been able to recover them. :good:
guys, old thread, i know, different device, i know, but ive been in the dark and this is what most resembles my issue.
any hints would be appreciated, read all 2 pages, can you believe it? im a very average xda enthusiast.
worries out of the way, my sincere thanks beforehand follow.
issue
carrier doesnt get in the way
oem doesnt get in the way
oem unlock toggle, check, adb debugging, you and i know the drill, no driver/cable issues
cannot for the life of me unlock bootloader, this one would take the newer command, however i tried them all ive come accross to no avail
output encourages me to unlock first, howwever not a clue is given as to how to accomplish it. this isnt the flash a file type of unlocking, either, at least not oem provided. going nuts.
go ahead and feel free to issue "advanced" directions (meaning, like your voicemail, instead of "for voicemail configurations press 8" and just "configurations 8"
spreatrum, not mtk
x120c
came with oreo go, treble enabled per getprop
i dont know what else, please

Lets discuss twrp and rooting this device.

so per xda rules i cannot post where to go to unlock your bootloaders on the nokia 6.1 but if you google search you will find it. it's $5 and you provide your IEMI and i had the code and was unlocked within 10 minutes.
im not a dev but id love to start a discussion on how to build twrp and achieve root. i wanted to extract my boot.img and try to patch with magisk but im positive you need twrp to see the partition scheme and temp root to make a system dump. since this is an android one device its possible it follows the pixel scheme and has a/b partitions which makes it even harder for development of roms. but root should be possible if we have someone with the knowledge how to achieve it.
i just wanted to start a discussion and see where this takes us. this is a nice budget device and it deserves root.
im still not sure why its against the rules here to pay for a unlock when jcase used to promote the sunshine app to s-off and unlock bootloaders for $25 per phone.
ive attached a screenshot of my unlocked bootloader so people don't think im full of it. i have the USA 32gb / 3gb ram model from best buy.
let the fun begin! :fingers-crossed:
What carrier do you use? Does your phone normally after unlocking bootloader?

its a gsm unlocked phone but I use it on tmobile. yes its works fine. once you unlock the bootloader it does factory reset and wipe data.
it seems the only way to do a system dump is to buy a edl usb type c cable since we have no temp root or official firmware from nokia. if anybody has one of these cables and gets their bootloader unlocked we can get a system dump including the recovery.img to build twrp and the boot.img to patch with magisk.
I succed to unlock bootloader. I pay for it. I want to back up rom and find way to make custom recovery to flash magisk
why your bootloader ui is different ?
there's a word "one" after "android" ?

Shame no magisk currently or I would be off to buy a unlock key! Bought this phone on contract a month or two ago and am kinda missing magisk.
Just got my Nokia 6.1 yesterday. Got it unlocked. Any updates on rooting with Magisk?
I'll try with it tonight to check if any chance to do twrp and root our Nokia 6.1

You should read/search more...
In almost every thread is link how to unlock (because people needs to talk about that everywhere), for now no option to root, unless we have TWRP or the boot image. And you need to wait for Android P, it should be out in August, I think...

I can buy the cable and try to do that. I never done it, but I can Google it and try it.
I ordered the cable yesterday. I will try to get the files necessary for TWRP.

It only cost me $8, but I least I have it for future usage or to fix phone if bricked. Thanks for working on rooting this device. Everyone will be grateful for you time and work. I don't think I would have the knowledge needed to do it and would have had to do some research to learn about it. Thank you.

How us P compared to Oreo ? Speed and fluidity .?
I think oreo has better battery. P never stuck very quickly Rom and stable. Now that on holidays I found a new add. You can use phone and Google maps can run in.small window! Usefull .. the ROM came with the basic stock Google tools. I like it. I don't like that I can't make modifications like xposed remove some Google apps like player and add others. I don't like that Nokia hasn't software that you can unbrick your phone (lg has the lg bringe). I don't like that Nokia isn't official unlock the bootloaders.

You people are foolish even more than me. I wanna abuse you but can't.
If your device shows Bootloader status unlocked allowed 'yes'
Then goto unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com
And select device modle and enter emi number and fu+k yourself and get an unlock code.
And use experifirm to flash any regions firmware even global too.

Please keep your temperament low, Mister.
And thank you for "misguiding" people. I unlocked bootloader, downloaded a ton of roms and none would flash. Each one of them results in errors. Downloaded any custom roms available, most go into bootloop while some wont install even.
Relocked bootloader and still wont install OTAs so I am stuck with stock MM with no possibility of getting Nougat because on SO-01H Nougat update is OTA only and there is no FTF available anywhere.
Thanks again. And please dont swear on public forums.

Thats OK.
I have no idea what jeffal jetwari is, but rest assured your advice was acted upon and it made me lose too many hours trying to fix it. No ftf's for other variants work, not even the global version, no custom roms work and there is really not much of a benefit having unlocked the bootloader. So please only advise on something you have experienced personally.
Regards
