any help please

HI if you have TWRP installed,just go to twrp and reboot to bootloader
then connect to pc with usb open adb and fastboot and
-Then type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb devices" should show some numbers and "fastboot" after the numbers
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info" shows device info including bootloader status (e.g. locked).
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem unlock" to unlock the bootloader; after this you should get, for device info,
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info" and you should see "Device unlocked: true"
-To reboot normally: "fastboot -i 0x1bbb reboot"

But in the twrp you have to reboot to bootloader and just use the commands in previous post if doesn't work try with mobile upgrade if doesnt't works,for me doesn't just use this guide to flash the panasonic eluga switch firmware(same as Idol 3) ,it will erase everything
1.First you need the drivers so you can get from this https://drive.google.com/folderview?...TQ&usp=sharing
2.After you installed the Drivers Press Volume UP and Volume DOWN and connect to usb to your pc
3.Go to device Manager to view the Port ,so the port can be "Android HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)"
4.Download the Panasonic Firmware Eluga and Extract (don't worry this is the same like idol 3 only name changed)https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B01Om...DhaSFN2aVFzaVU
5. After Extract you wil find EB-90S55EWLv1009.exe so run as administrator wait to load data
6.select 6045 and in the list down you can find your phone
7.and press the button "download"
8.So process starting ..indetifying your device you will get informations about imei..rooted or no .....
9.so automatically started to flashing the firmware (my it's go to 45 % and then i get error)
10.Don't worry press the button Reboot Device
11.and your device will reboot and you will view 'the screen powered by android and then panasonic so i get message Encrypted device just click the button "reset" and automatically device will be reseted and when wil finish with reset automatically reboots and wait to first boot you will get welcome screen set up and finished.....
12.So device successfully repaired from dead

I'm out if thanks but thank you this saved my phone I was worried for a bit there lol
Is it possible for me not to have a ulockable bootloader as I've tried everything a day no joy
I'm back on stock and rooted just no twrp because of love led bootloader
All I get is OEM unlock not allowed
I have the 6045Y and running 010 02

Also with me been on stock and rooted it won't run system update because it sees it as been rooted
When a new version of comes out can I just use mobile upgrade to flash latest version

Yes if you root your device you will wont able to get any update ,but you can get with mobile ugprade ot just flash stock system and recovery and not root..

when you use the panasonic eluga switch update firmware, it also rewrites the aboot paritions and if the aboot parition has fastboot oem unlock command you can ulock it and then use mobile upgrade Q app to go to stock (it will not lock your bootloader)

as i said. Use the original panasonic eluga switch firmware exe, run it, choose 6045 device, connect your phone and let it do the thing. In cca 45-54% you see an error. It is nothing sreious, just unplug hte phone and booti it to see,that everything is allright.
Then just allow usb debugging, connect to PC and confirm connction with the PC ,then use adb reboot bootloader and then the unlock bootloader procedure.

OK thanks worth a try see if it allowes me to unlock the bootloader will I be on a different build number once flashed
And I suppose the eluga way is more thorough then the other way
Thanks for you help

thats the only way that will allow you to unlock bootloader beside the way described in the 6039 thread (in that case you need a mbn files for your devices, which you have to find somewhere on the internet).

whats the best thing to do now to flash your rom should i flash back to alcatel stock rom then twrp then your rom or can i flash from the panasonic rom
millions thanks to you and all that have helped

just flash the DCZ ROM 1.3 should be fine. Anyway you have unlocked bootloader now and the fastboot commands will work as they should.
From now you can go stock anytime with mobile upgrade Q tool .

(HELP ME ) Bricked

So i did a stupid thing and flashed the wrong image when i was installing a new rom, I managed to lock myself out of ADB, TWRP and download mode. I'm in a bit of a pickle right now I've been trying everything I can to fix it, but I managed to do nothing. Is there anyone that can walk me through the steeps to get unbricked.
I've tried recovery through hisuite, but it says my device is not supported. My phone showed up via CMD command (fastboot devices) but not (adb devices). I have no idea what to do?

Give the all required information like Brand, model number in your post first.

Huawei honor 5x kiwi L24, I can't really acces the phone so finding some information is impossible. My main issue is when I boot it's failing to verify the Boot.img , recovery.img and system.img . I don't exactly know what all information I can give you

I have already done that, I've tried flashing it via SP flash tool but nothing, it won't show up. I've downloaded correct drivers and done what I could but my phone shows up as Lemobile android adb interface. It sometimes shows as a disk drive as well.
When I run CMD command (fastboot flash oem info) it shows everything but the recovery.img system.img and boot.img need verification how can I verify them without the debugging bridge active on the phone.

What do you mean sir
Imgs are already verified cause they are official
And you don't need USB debug in fastboot mode
Your device is not has mtk processor so it won't work

I rooted my phone and was running xenon HD on my Huawei honor 5x, in the midst of switching ROMs I accidently targeted a TWRP recovery.img with the ROM and Gapps.
So what my phone dose now is when it powers on it an all green screen with a red box and a blue box. After a second it come up with " recovery image verify failed, please update to verified images." I can enter fastboot&rescue mode and a Huawei erecovery, but when i do try to download the recovery via WIFI it says package failure.

Assuming that your bootloader is unlocked have you tried reflashing twrp?

I had unlocked my bootloader but some research I was doing says, when you accidently flash wrong images it can relock the bootloader. I lost the original bootloader code and i don't exactly have the box anymore, so getting a new code will be difficult.

[GUIDE] How to unlock bootloader on Nokia 3

*Unlocking bootloader will remove all your data!*
I'm using Windows 7, and that's the steps i did. (it should be simmilar for other systems too)
Getting code:
Code will look simmilar to this: DB1ED223C5537BA756FB0671E425D650
Method 1 (no root):
Go to
https://passwordsgenerator.net/md5-hash-generator/ copy paste serial number and click generate. Then you should see code in "MD5 Hash of your string". You can also go to simmilar md5 hash generator sites, but this site automatically converts small letters to big letters.
Method 2 (root):
Okay, this is new method that is much easier and you don't need to send IMEI and wait for @the_laser to give you code. Go to terminal emulator, type su and execute it. Then type this and execute it:
redweaver said:
Actually the command is
echo -n NE1GAM4770133666 |md5sum |tr [:lower:] [:upper:]
If you don't use the -n flag, the newline character is also passed and you get a different result

Unlocking bootloader:
Download platform-tools which activates adb and fastboot commands (first you need Nokia 3 driver installed if you didn't)
Nokia 3 driver: http://www.devfiles.co/download/3iK0k7Sv/Nokia_3_USB_Drivers.zip
platform-tools Windows: http://www.devfiles.co/download/KtLsN6fX/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
platform-tools Mac: http://www.devfiles.co/download/OkrfluP0/platform-tools-latest-darwin.zip
platform-tools Linux: http://www.devfiles.co/download/vk5DudZX/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
Enable usb debugging in Developer options before running adb. To get Developer options, go to settings, about phone and press build number 7 times. Also enable OEM unlock.
Now Connect phone to computer via usb and enable usb file transfer, run cmd as administrator, then type this command which runs adb:
chdir C:/Users/John/Desktop/platform-tools (this is just a example, you need to type your own location of platform-tools)
then type this command to check is your device connected to adb, it will show serial number of your device, if it hangs at waiting device, then you need to reinstall drivers (if you're doing this first time, then it will ask to allow usb debugging on your computer, just tick always allow from this computer and click OK)
adb devices
then type this command to reboot to recovery (you can boot to recovery by holding power on + volume up (only with usb connected) if this command doesn't works)
adb reboot recovery
when booted to recovery, choose reboot to bootloader option with volume sliders (this will boot to fastboot)
when booted to fastboot, it will show text 'FASTBOOT MODE' in down-left corner
now type this command to check is your device connected properly to fastboot.
fastboot devices
if it show characters like 0123456789ABCDEF or simmilar then it is connected properly, if it hangs on waiting device, then you need to reinstall drivers like mentioned above.
Android Nougat (7.0 & 7.1.1):
Now type these commands to unlock bootloader
fastboot.exe -i 0x2e04 oem key (type your key after oem key)
fastboot.exe -i 0x2e04 oem unlock
then press volume up, when asked
Android Oreo (8.0 & 8.1):
First download NE1-0-215H.lk.bin:
https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code=XZaLMs7ZclQ2wvKwSb0ofUraMmrsiHh6uk1X
Now type these commands to unlock bootloader
fastboot oem dm-verity <your_unlock_key>
fastboot flash lk NE1-0-215H.lk.bin
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Proceed your unlock procedure.
If you have problem on flashing the lk partition, you can use MTK Smart Phone Flash Tool to flash lk partition manually.
After lk partition flashed, you may encounter "Red State" when booting the phone. Ignore that and boot your phone to Fastboot mode directly with OST LA.
That is it, i tried to explain for you to understand everything i did to unlock bootloader.
Credits:
@the_laser for codes, some additional steps and corrections. Also thanks for new method. @redweaver for new method.
@Hikari_kalyx for Android Oreo method. @bigrammy for NE1-0-215H.lk.bin link.

way to enter recovery without adb -
power off phone
press and hold volume up + power on buttons, insert cable immediately
countdown will start on phone, hold both keys until countdown ends, then IMMEDIATELY release power on key, still holding volume up
you will enter recovery shortly
after installing TWRP it is very important - DO NOT allow /system modification until supersu package installation ! ( or you will require reflashing phone with OST )
another note - can't enter recovery by combination volume-up + power button, if phone not connected to computer
one man reported, that even he successfully flashed TWRP image with "fastboot flash recovery <twrp image>", he still got original recovery.
workaround is to use "fastboot boot <twrp image>" - as we need to have USB cable connected to enter TWRP recovery anyway, not big problem.

Someone told me that if you flashed twrp, that it automatically removes data encryption. Is that true?
EDIT: i find out that is not true, it asks for some password to decrypt data, but the problem is that idk what is the password

DON'T install xposed! It bootlops.
EDIT: My fault, it actually work but you need to wait more than usual to boot.

That is great guys.

I use this twrp https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsmTb5aqoY12mDZqDZbPOp47QVMV
I have stock recovery, but I use fastboot command 'fastboot boot recoveryname.img' when I need TWRP, and that's awesome because I don't lose stock recovery which is useful to flash OTAs and Nokia zips. I flashed SuperSu 2.79 just fine, but expect some crashes like software update, device monitor crash, but actually everything works, software update works just fine.

link for twrp
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsmTb5aqoY12mDZqDZbPOp47QVMV
when downloaded, copy twrp to folder platform-tools and rename it to recovery.img
reboot to fastboot, then type this command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then reboot, fastboot reboot
if it didn't worked, use this command just to boot to twrp (you need to do this everytime when you are connected to PC)
fastboot boot recovery.img
To install root, first disable system modification on twrp then flash this zip for root.
This is not the latest version of SuperSU, but newest releases have some problems and crashes. (at least for me). This is last version that works for me.
That is it.

Thank you!

Is it possible after unlocking, installing twrp and root, to return the device to factory settings for ota updates? If so, how?

on twrp, there is a option wipe, click on it, then you will see option swipe to factory reset. then wait and reboot.
And you can now enable system modification if you want (it is recommended to enable it because some zips fails to flash because this option is disabled)

[GUIDE] How to flash a custom recovery and root a Nokia 6 Retail Phone

WARNING: This method currently doesn't work on Nokia 6 TA-1000 with latest Android O Update! Finding workaround.
Workaround found on leaked Android 8.1 Update, with Magisk Systemless Root Method.
ROOT YOUR PHONE MAY VOID YOUR WARRANTY, DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK
You can download new recovery from this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/how-to/nokia-6-ta-1000-homebrew-stock-android-t3752006
Changes in new TWRP Recovery 3.2.1-0:
1. Add English Interface.
2. Use Magisk ROOT instead of SuperSU ROOT.
3. You can backup EFS. However you can't backup modem or the procedure will break.
Thanks to @xinkid 's effort, we can finally root Nokia 6 on Android Oreo again.
Procedure for non TA-1000 users:
0. Backup your phone and remove your lock screen password before proceed! If your phone get stuck at "Powered by Android" splash after the procedure, you may need to format userdata.
1. Sideload the PLE-372B ota package in recovery, which you can download from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/help/nokia-6-ota-update-ddls-t3721424
Refer this guide's part 2 to downgrade.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/how-to/guide-upgrade-downgrade-nougat-oreo-t3752393
2. Flash the service bootloader and grant service permission
Reboot to bootloader, then flash the service bootloader with following commands. Service bootloader file (D1C-emmc_appsboot.mbn attached in this topic)
Code:
fastboot oem dm-verity [md5_of_your_device_serial_number]
fastboot flash aboot D1C-emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem dm-verity [md5_of_your_device_serial_number]
For example, if your serial number is PLEABCD123456789, and the md5 checksum of your serial number is 5f47b9a8dc1da1873c12945cf806691e, then type this command:
Code:
fastboot oem dm-verity 5f47b9a8dc1da1873c12945cf806691e
fastboot flash aboot D1C-emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem dm-verity 5f47b9a8dc1da1873c12945cf806691e
You can google a website to calculate md5 checksum of a string.
3. Reflash newer firmware basis to your phone except aboot
After you grant service permission, Extract the newer one OTA package on your PC, in this case, PLE-558B.
Everything you need are placed at firmware-update folder that you extracted.
Take PLE-558B for example, type these commands (commands need to be changed if newer firmware released):
Code:
fastboot flash sbl1 D1C-0-558B-sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash keymaster D1C-0-558B-keymaster.mbn
fastboot flash devcfg D1C-0-558B-devcfg.mbn
fastboot flash cmnlib64 D1C-0-558B-cmnlib64.mbn
fastboot flash rpm D1C-0-558B-rpm.mbn

Then flash the custom recovery:
fastboot flash recovery nokia-6-ta-1000-8_0-twrp3.2.1-7to-recovery-magisk-root-2018.3.15.img
Power off your phone (case sensitive). Disconnect your phone after execute this command:
fastboot oem HALT
4. Connect your phone to a charger. When charging animation appears, press and hold Volume Up and Power until you see "7to.com" logo. Tap the white cog to choose English language, tap Advanced - Magisk Root, and wait for the procedure complete.
========================SEPARATOR====================
This new guide is only based and tested on Nokia 6 TA-1000. Non TA-1000 (e.g. TA-1021) users need to find their own old OTA package to downgrade.
1. Downgrade the bootloader according to this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/how-to/guide-upgrade-downgrade-nougat-oreo-t3752393
If you've flashed my homebrew Android O firmware, skip this step.
2. Use old method below to flash the new recovery again. You must use this recovery, otherwise you can't mount and root.
If you've flashed my homebrew Android O firmware, type this command will allow you to flash recovery:
Code:
fastboot-android oem dm-verity (your_serial_number's_md5_checksum)
3. Use old method below to enter recovery. To load English interface, tap the white cog on the top-right corner, then tap "English" and OK button, just wait few seconds.
4. Tap "Advanced" - "Magisk ROOT" and swipe.
5. If you meet recovery loop after rooted, flash the package misc_initial.zip attached below to escape from recovery loop.
That's it. It's not recommended to receive any newer OTA update since it will overwrite bootloader to patched state.
If you're using TA-1000, you can also try to flash Android 8.1 Homebrew Firmware before rooting.
I'm sorry if you found the guide looks confusing.
Following method for Nougat is archived, only for reference.
Yesterday, I got my own Nokia 6 Retail Phone. Since I’ve already rooted Nokia 5, 6 and 8 Prototype, now it’s time to find out how to root retail Nokia 6 without involving risky Qualcomm EDL Mode.
It works on any variant of Nokia 6 in theory, but I only tested it on D1C/TA-1000.
If there’s a custom recovery for Nokia 2/3/5 released, the guide also works on them. But I’ve tested it on a Nokia 8 retail phone, it doesn’t work on it.
To Nokia 7 and 8 Users, You may want to read this topic: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3729396

First, you need to download OFW of Nokia 6, install OST LA and patch it.
You can download them from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...ia-8-official-firmware-links-updated-t3678487
(Although the link is for Nokia 8, firmware for Nokia 6 is still available)

If you own an unlocked prototype device, just skip to step 6.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Open OST LA from INSTALLATION DIRECTORY DIRECTLY instead of Start Menu.
2. Load your OFW you downloaded with extension name nb0.
3. Power off your phone, then connect it to your PC. This will boot your phone to “Download mode” directly, in fact it’s fastboot mode.
4. Click “Edit Phone Info” on OST LA. This will load a service purposed bootloader. When your phone reboots and re-enters the Download mode, the service purposed bootloader is now loaded.
5. You can close OST LA when it prompts “Boot FTM mode fail”, or just kill it in task manager if it’s not responding.
6. Open a command prompt or PowerShell in OST LA Installation Directory, then execute this command to flash a custom recovery:
Code:
.\fastboot-android flash recovery E:\recovery.img
I assume that you put the custom recovery in drive E and named as recovery.img.
You can also use your own fastboot if you want, but I’ll prefer the one provided along with OST LA.
I used the recovery from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...veryteamwim-recovery-project-nokia-6-t3650499
7. Type this command but do not execute right now:
Code:
.\fastboot-android reboot
8. Now this step is a little tricky. Press and hold [Volume Up] and [Power] on your phone, then execute the command above at the same time. DO NOT RELEASE both keys on your phone until your phone entered the custom recovery.
9. Now your phone has entered a custom recovery. In this example, we’re using TWRP from Chinese 7to forum, only Chinese is available. I believe most of members on XDA can’t read Chinese, so I’ll attach screenshots. Simply tap “Advanced” – “SuperSU ROOT” will root your phone. If you prefer your own root zip update package, tap “Install Zip” then flash your own zip package in your storage, or tap “Advanced” – “ADB Sideload” then use ADB to sideload a zip package.
You can install the Materialized Theme for TWRP to get English interface from https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/theme-twrp-materialised-dark-light-play-t2915584 by @z31s1g
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Currently, DO NOT FLASH Magisk, or your phone will brick as Qualcomm 900E.
You can only use Magisk Root method in latest Android O Update, which I'll cover later.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
10. After your phone rooted, you can reboot your phone. DO NOT INSTALL ANY OTA UPDATES OR YOUR PHONE WILL GET STUCK AT STOCK RECOVERY, but I’ll recommend you to disable automatic update in settings.
That’s wraps up the whole guide. Please do feedback if there’s something wrong.

If you're running Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can open a command prompt from installation directory by click right button on the mouse while holding Shift key on the keyboard.
If you're running Windows 8/8.1 or Windows 10, you can open a command prompt or PowerShell from the left corner "File" button. Administrators privilege is optional.
Also, as I mentioned:
You can also use your own fastboot if you want.

IDK but you should have change/put the title of this topic as Nokia 6 - TA 1000 (Chinese variant) rather than Retail Phone.
Well, getting root is definitely a temptation but since I'm just a noob and the HMD hasn't release any official firmware/tool yet to recover the phone if thing goes wrong, I guess I'll wait a little bit longer then.

As I mentioned on the topic, it works on any variant, not only China Variant TA-1000 and Hong Kong Variant TA-1003.
 @same6630 tested on a TA-1021 which is a global variant.

HMD released official firmware of Nokia 6 of course, and it's needed to flash a recovery.

Mine
I got some screenshots....

Did someone successfully rooted his Nokia 6 TA-1033?

So just to be clear before I do this to my TA-1000; how do I go about to update it later if I want to update it? For example, my TA-1000 still don't have the 7.1.2 update, and the 8.0 update coming later would be something I want as well.
Do I just update through zip files, or will I simply not be able to update?

After you rooted your phone, you're not able to install any update until you reinstall stock rom.

First thing is to OTA update to anything other than 9.5.3. Seemed to me I remembered when I first got the device (many months ago) somebody mentioned there was a fastboot issue on 9.5.3. So just take whatever OTA is availabe to you. Probably 9.5.13
If you still can't boot the twrp.img after that then try manually changing the active slot in fastboot;
fastboot getvar current-slot *(take note of the current slot this command returns)*
fastboot --set-active= *(=a or =b to change slot to the opposite the first command returned)*
fastboot reboot bootloader
So you should end up with something like this;
fastboot --set-active=a
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot boot "C:\Adb\twrp-3.3.1-4-guacamole.img"

Bootloader is not damaged, did you enable usb debugging.
Please read, most of us have been there, and a lot of us are coming from some other OnePlus device. Project treble was discussed a lot on 5T forums. If your bootloader detects custom firmware while locked, it will lock the phone. You can't run fastboot commands because you missed a step somewhere.
