Hey, I have an alcatel 3 and I wanna see how I can root it. I'm trying to root it using magisk but fastboot keeps returning the error unknown command all the time.
when I do
fastboot flash ...
it sends the file but then writing produces an error.
I know that I can root it and that I've done it before using magisk. but now it doesn't work. btw i don't think i fully unrooted my device so that may be the issue.
Fastboot deals with phone's bootloader where it doesn't matter whether phone's Android got rooted or not.
If you get shown
FAILED (remote: 'unknown cmd.')
fastboot: error: Command failed
or
FAILED (remote: 'Not implemet.')
fastboot: error: Command failed
means the bootloader wasn't unlocked properly.
Try this command sequence
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
What if
fastboot flashing unlock.
Returns command not found
If "command not found" is returned by Fastboot when trying to unlock bootloader then unlocking phone's bootloader is denied.
what if i have to run sudo to use fastboot could that be the problem
Fastboot deals with Android device's bootloader: So it's irrelevant whether Android is rooted or not.
Take note that Fastboot isn't Fastboot hence not all Fastboot commands do necessarily work as expected: it depends on how OEM implements Fastboot.
having the same problem with my qlink tablet but when using command fastboot flashing unlock
it returned fastboot oem operation fail: unknown cmd' : error: command failed This is my first time rooting anything help please?
hellp me ty pls!
Have you turned on "allow OEM to be unlocked" in developers option

I was following a guide on unlocking the idol 3. After sending it into fastboot, attempting to run "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem unlock" returns an error saying "FAILED (remote: unknown command)"
Any idea why this might be happening or how I can fix it? I'm doing this on an iMac running the commands with ./ in the android studio "platform-tools" directory.
you'll need windows for restore adb commands

Hello all,
I currently have a Blu Studio Mega 2019 android device with me. It is running android 9. I have spent the last 3 days trying my hardest and expending all resources to root the device. I have been unsuccessful every time and the main reason is that When I run the below command it always fails. I have tried "fastboot oem unlock" or "fastboot oem device-info" and it always returns command not valid.
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Sending 'recovery' (16356 KB) OKAY [ 0.527s]
Writing 'recovery' FAILED (remote: 'Flashing Lock Flag is locked. Please unlock it first!')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Yes I do have usb debugging on, OEM unlock on, I have the android drivers for the "fastboot gadget installed". My device shows up when I type "fastboot devices" and will reboot with "fastboot reboot". I have not been able to find a solution to my 'Flashing Lock Flag is locked. Please unlock it first!' problem. I hope someone else has found the solution.

Rename the patched boot.img to "boot.img", then place the patched .img in your fastboot folder on PC then type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
When you place the file in your fastboot folder, you don't need to include the path to the file in the command, it automatically looks for the file in the fastboot folder by default when you do not enter a path. Renaming the file to "boot.img" isn't necessarily required, but, it does simplify things for fastboot and makes the command easier to remember and type.
The same applies if you want to flash a system.img, recovery.img, etc.. Just change the name of the file to "system.img" or "recovery.img" and place it/them in your fastboot folder and it simplifies your commands to:
fastboot flash system system.img
And
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

You've to unlock device's bootloader. Hence 1st of all if you want to manage the / operate on the bootloader you have to move device into fastboot mode and then run on device if it's launched 2015 or later
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
[code]
instead of the outdated
[code]
fastboot oem-unlock

The platform tools you actually use are meant to be used with Google devices only.
Use the Android USB-tools provided by your device's manufacturer.

I'm having simular issue with my specter 8 tablet. I unlock the bootloader and give me the normal prompt. I go back do everything else and will execute reboot devices ect. However won't flash patch_boot.img brings up message

I need the boot.img for the EU-Version. Can someone please help me? Thx in forward.

Thank you. I've now read rooting is not possible because Mediatek. Is it true please? Will not break it.
I'm rooted on my Nord2T. Whoever said that does not know what they are talking about.
The original Nord 2 was also mediatek and has a few custom ROMs and everything
I'm not able to boot correct in bootloader. There is written at the display extreme small "Fastboot Mode". If I set command "fastboot oem unlock" there is no reaction and nothing written. Changing with up/down is nothing doing.
Pushing Vol- and Powerbutton ends in recovery. There it is only possible to choose language and then wipe, reboot and power off.
My firmware is: CPH2399_11_A.09
Wrong code not
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
The correct command is
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
Sorry, can not unlock the bootloader
Both commands failed
PS C:\adb2> fastboot flashing unlock
FAILED (remote: 'Unrecognized command flashing unlock')
fastboot: error: Command failed
PS C:\adb2> fastboot oem unlock
FAILED (remote: 'Unable to open fastboot HAL')
fastboot: error: Command failed
PS C:\adb2>
Try using a different ADB and fastboot. I use official platform tools from here
Also what comes up when you type
Code:
fastboot devices
Have downloaded and used the tools from official platform (your link)
PS C:\adb3> fastboot devices
UKGYBYZTL7699T8T fastboot
PS C:\adb3> fastboot flashing unlock
FAILED (remote: 'Unrecognized command flashing unlock')
fastboot: error: Command failed
PS C:\adb3> fastboot oem unlock
FAILED (remote: 'Unable to open fastboot HAL')
fastboot: error: Command failed
I'm in "Fastbootd Mode".
The command was "adb reboot fastboot". The command "adb reboot bootloader" does not work at mine N2t

Did you enable developer options and select Enable OEM unlock first?

Don't rush and don't do it like me. Here boot images are for 09. So upgrade first.
Safety net passes with magisk module
Root easily hidden with lsposed and shamiko module.
