Hi, something went wrong when installing Xposed. Now the phone can only boot into stock recovery and therefore in fastboot mode. However, the bootloader was already relocked before this happened, and because of this I can't install twrp to remove xposed. Can anyone help me solve this, please? And preferably without losing all the data because no back-up has been made obviously :crying:
Thanks in advance!

Locked Bootloader
Somehow I managed to get stuck here, I'm still not sure how. If I had to guess it would be the bootmanager application, although I haven't used it since this morning.
I really would like to keep the bootloader locked if at all possible. The phone was rooted before.
I figured I could just flash a recovery that's signed (hboot signature verification fails on cwm and amon_ra, via fastboot) but I can't for the life of me find one.
In the bootloader, I click on recovery, shows the n1 splashscreen briefly, then sends me to fastboot.
Thanks for the help.
You won't be able to put a custom recovery on there without unlocking the bootloader or reseting your phone. If you are really wanting to keep the bootloader intact, the easiest thing would be to do the PASSIMG method. Have a look in the wiki and it will explain everything to you. Then once you get back into Android, root the phone before it updates to Gingerbread and then install ROM Manager to get your custom recovery back.
I actually just ended up unlocking it and using fastboot to put a new recovery on it. I didn't know about the PASSIMG method. Thanks for your response anyway though.
hey,
I'm a newbie over here! but i do know basic flashing of ROMS and recoveries and zips. I have a htc one 801e. and i think i bricked my phone. i was running android revolution HD 12.0 (4.2.2 ROM). i successfully unlocked my bootloader, rooted it, and flashed the latest CWM Touch recovery and even achieved s-off and Super CID through revone. i also have set up the ADB on my mac. (I am a MAC USER btw). I was having alotta GPS problem lately and so i decided to wipe my data, relock and re-root. (as i tried everything possible with the GPS problem, but to factory reset to stock RUU and re-root the device once again.) but sadly, in the process, I wiped off all the partitions, even the system partition. I tried rebooting many times but i cannot go past the Boot animation. obviously cus i wiped everything. i dont have anything on the sd card as well. I am just left with a bootloader now. (relocked bootloader. i tried fastboot and adb commands and mistakenly relocked it.) and a CWM touch recovery. i cannot access the storage on my phone. please someone help me? what can I do now to unbrick it? im on a mac! please? any help would be appreciated! :crying:

im sorry! the first post ever! resized it again!
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
Hello
Yesterday I've rooted my phone and then I wanted to install a custom rom (CarbonRom).
I've read that I have to unlock the bootloader for installing a custom rom. I did this with the flashtool.
After that my phone stuck in bootloop.
I have restored my phone with twrp recovery and it works now. But I still have a locked bootloader.
I have read that I have to install a stock rom to prevent a bootloop. I only rooted my device so my phone still should have the stock rom on it.
Does anyone know how to unlock the bootloader properly?
Thanks in advance
