I unlocked the bootloader using BL-unlock_new but I can't get to it :|
adb reboot oem-unlock just closes my phone (than I see my battery charging)
adb reboot bootloader gets stuck at LG logo
What to do? I wanna get to fastboot mode in order to flash custom recovery.
I can't get to stock recovery, some weird message appears (blabla service)
Please help me... Thank you.
I don't think your idea of what bootloader is corresponds to what it actually is...
Read the instructions on how to flash a custom rom. If you succesfully unlocked your bootloader there's no need to boot in the bootloader. Check for the bootoader state (there are many posts on how to do so) and read a little bit more about the whole process so you know what it all means.
EDIT: if you can't boot into the stock recovery you most likely corrupted it by a wrong unlock method. Reflash stock kdz with LG Flash Tool (instructions are in general section) and then proceed from there again.

download clockwork recovery from the app store.
Flash its recovery, then boot into recovery after a successful flash.
Out of curiosity, why did you install a non-rooted version of 2.3.3.?
You can get into recovery... what you're seeing is the front of the stock one. Hold volume+ and hit power.
The only way to get root on 2.3.3 currently is to unlock the bootloader and use fastboot. Being S-ON is nothing to do with it, 99% of N1s are.

Downloading clockworkmod will not work. He is not rooted so he can't flash the recovery with it.

This happened to me 2 days ago (word by word)!!
From Amon Recovery's page, this is what the problem is:
"Make sure that init.rc isn't calling any install-recovery.sh script, otherwise you'll boot back to stock recovery (exclamation mark with a little Android). More info on this here"
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10467058&postcount=1638
My problem was even more complicated because I tried flashing froyo without a wipe so my phone started going into boot loop!
Thanks to danger-rat's reply, I was able to get into recovery at least once and then everything came back under control. He said "Recovery is only restored when you boot into system, so the idea is that you flash recovery, and go straight into it via the on phone menu, and then install what you need to..."
Here's my thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=980577
edit: I just realized that you are not able to fastboot either? I was able fastboot and flash recovery onto my phone and then without turning the phone off - I was able to go into recovery straight after flashing amon_recovery.img
passimg back to an earlier version of Android, root, then install a pre-rooted GB...
If you get the "main version is older" error, you're out of luck and your only option is to unlock the bootloader or wait for a new method to be found...

Be more specific. Which version, unlocked bootloader or not etc?

i had stock 4.1.2 fw with custom kernel.... now im not sure if bootloader was unlocked nebo relocked but probably unlocked
If your bootloader is unlocked and you update your fw through official LG updater you're screwed. It corrupts the bootloader I think. You have to flash a kdz manually (search for a tutorial in the forum).

i found in S/W Update that my bootloader was unlocked =// i will try flash kdz manually.. I already did it once..
You need to boot into recovery yourself then reboot system. Remove then replace battery. Boot into recovery manually then simply reboot into system. If you leave it to boot itself it will just get stuck in recovery limbo.
Who Cares Wins
I need help with figuring how to solve my problem. Whenever I try to reboot it boots straight to hboot/fastboot. I can't update my system because of it. Can't unlock because it freezes at the screen where I choose to unlock or not. What should I do??
What have you done to your phone so far?
Have you unlocked your bootloader?
Have you installed TWRP Recovery?
Have you rooted your phone?
Have you flashed any new roms or kernels?
Can you still access your recovery? (TWRP or stock - stock is just black screen with a red triangle in the middle)
Please give a detailed description of the things you have done, the results of each of these things if any, and when your phone started rebooting straight to HBoot.
Also, is your phone the 32 bit US model, or the 64 bit Europian/Australian model?
There's still a chance your device's firmware is recoverable, but you probably shouldn't try anything until you get some advice from someone who has a lot of knowledge and a detailed description of how you ended up where you're at.
Good luck!
What have you done to your phone so far? I have unlocked it before, but end up re-locking it after failing to root it.
Have you unlocked your bootloader? I did and relocked it.
Have you installed TWRP Recovery? Couldn't and Can't
Have you rooted your phone? No
Have you flashed any new roms or kernels? No
Can you still access your recovery? (TWRP or stock - stock is just black screen with a red triangle in the middle) I can't enter recovery.
I have no .img files when entering hboot. I can't unlock because it freezes after choosing the unlock option. It shows entering recovery at the stop and a discalimer message at the botto and goes no where
How to fix the issue
The first thing is to do is to relock the boot loader by typing 'fastboot oem lock' and the appropriate RUU for your device and carrier and open the RUU and reflash the device and it will be good as new

You should not just lock the boot loader without first reinstalling the stock recovery! When you go to use the RUU if it doesn't see the stock recovery it's going to fail... First reinstall the stock recovery and then OEM lock then you can use the RUU!
P.S. I have no idea why you're replying to some post from 2014... This post was almost a year ago lmao...
You don't have to have stock recover I did it with TWRP Recovery and it put stock recovery for you

Hello team,
I had 4.03 with unlocked BL and TWRP installed. I reinstalled the stock N recovery first. When I use the command "fastboot oem lock" it ask me to say yes and I do, it reboots and flashes the white symbol and reboots, stuck in this bootloop. Anybody seen this before or have a fix? I am trying to restore to stock to sell.
thanks,
Nope I didn't have an issue like you. 2 attempt of going back to stock and never had an issue. Did you successfully flash the stock recovery?
Just use the unbrick meathod it resets everything

Yes- I did flash the stock recovery. But when I do the "fastboot oem lock" it just boot loops- any ideas?

You should never lock the bootloader with non stock recovery or boot image. The security in newer devices is a lot meaner.
There are two ways you can resolve this:
Method 1:
You'll need to unlock the bootloader first. Try getting into fastboot and run "fastboot oem unlock".
If it allows unlocking you're done, just flash everything stock (first the recovery and then OOS 4.0.3 via the ADB option in the recovery). Then, go to fastboot and relock the bootloader. Should work since it worked many times for me.
Method 2:
If it doesn't allow and you're in TWRP you can't do any flashing since the locked bootloader won't allow TWRP to boot.
In this case, contact OnePlus Support via Live Chat and tell them you got a software issue with your phone.
They'll give you links to three files needed for flashing the device. Download those and let them know. They'll flash your device via remote support within a week. No matter what S/W state it is in.
Hope it helps
I tried to unlock bootloader and installing the twrp in micromax bharat 4. Unlocking was success and then i installed twrp using 'fastboot flash recovery twrp.img'. then i tried flashing magisk on to it. There i made a mistake in the code. I used 'fastboot flash recovery \magisk_patched.img' instead of 'fastboot flash boot \magisk_patched.img'. all the process are showed as succeasfully completed. After that when i reboot the phone, it was stuck at 'powered by android' screen. It is not showing any logos or anything. I also cant access bootloader or fastboot mode.
Anyone please help!
Thanks in advance.
A bad flash to the recovery partition should normally not mess up the bootloader (which is fastboot mode, same thing). To get everything back up and running again you'd have to be able to enter the bootloader though, so you're going to have to figure that one out.
There's a pretty active Bharat 4 thread here that might be a good place to ask for help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...p-root-micromax-bharat-4-q440-cg-sky-t4001911
Thanks for the help. I read the entire forum but didnt find the relevant solution for me. The problem is that i cannot access the fastboot mode micromax bharat 4
