Your device is corrupt - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

Hi there,
I just bought a pixel 5 phone and tried to unlock bootloader
After I made the steps described in that post for P5 ... after flasing the magisk img file I wanted to reboot the phone but it is stuck on the message:
"Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and may not work properly.
Visit this link on another device.
link..."
What can I do to fix that issue? I'm trying to root it and install lineageos after.
Regards,
LE: Most probably I run the command with fastboot installed with apt in ubuntu 20
Version from fastboot from ubuntu: fastboot version 1:8.1.0+r23-5ubuntu2
LEE:
Pfiu ... I was pretty scared ... fixed it with this link: https://flash.android.com/devices
Can somebody let me know please if the issue was because of the bad fastboot version?
Also ... I saw there is a kddi version and without it ... tried without kddi as I don't know exactly to verify if I'm having kddi

I wanted to try again to root the phone. Went to developer options and now oem unlocking is grayed, i cannot change id and it says:
"bootloader is already unlocked".

Click to collapse
Then I said to go to fastboot mode but when I'm running the command:
Code:
fastboot devices
it cannot see my phone now, I'm seeing an empty output now.
Also ... when I want to start the phone I'm seeing:
"the bootloader is unlocked and the integrity ..."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Can somebody please help me? what should I do?

What's the problem? The message appears on some devices that had their bootloader unlocked. So the message alone does not matter.

The problem is that I don't have root access and I want to try again those steps for root
...
I want to make the steps described for how to unlock the bootloader and have root permissions as I want to install then lineageos on the phone
Thank you
LE: so the problem is described above in more details and what exactly I did before coming at this situation

So I was able to see again the device in fastboot (enabled stay awake)
When I tried command:
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
it said it is already unlocked
Then I flashed magisk img but I can't see it on my phone
Any advice please?

Pull down your notifications and allow USB debugging after plugging in on your PC perhaps? Also check the box to always allow.

I don't try anymore to root my phone as I don't want to use lineageos custom rom. I already installed one that doesn't need root.
Thanks
LE: What I installed without root required had issue for me with sim manager
I finally rooted my phone and installed lineageos that is working well

P9 Bricked, Bootloader Locked. No TWRP Installed. FML (Send Help)

Think I did the title pretty well, I can only access fastboot (Before you say anything I've already tried this guide:http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...ow-to-unbrick-huawei-p8-failed-t3260704/page1) all it gets me is the screen to light up (black) that's it. At this point I have no clue how to bring it back, any useful tips or ideas would always be appreciated. Thanks.
EDIT: It would be helpful if anyone knew a way to unlock the bootloader through fastboot
EDIT: nvm unlocked the bootloader through adb
EDIT:Installed TWRP through FASTBOOT
EDIT: Had the future rom downloaded, installed through SD card. DEVICE BOOTS.
EDIT: Tried dload method, went back to square 1 (Device would only backlit screen on boot, bootloader locked) Repeated steps and used the Huawei P9 Updater 2.0 by Hajuuk (Godbless) IT WORKS. Currently on C185B170 will update to B180 and from there to Android N. IF anyone has a similar problem feel free to ask.

Hi, I have problem. I have two Huawei P9. One is L19 and the other is L09.
My L19 is the C900
My L09 I do not remember what it is ... the problem is that it is no system, it only turns on fastboot recovery mode. I've tried combo keys with dload but it does not work or does not recognize. By Hisuite says that the model is not supported. Finally I tried the Firmware Update program by hajuuk https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-...dater-t3435878 I used several firmwares inside the L09 option but in the middle of the installation it gives error.
I need to find a way to enable the OEM so I can flash boot.img, recovery.img and system.img because I can not flash anything at the momento because it gives the Not Allowed command.
The status is Bootloader locked and FRP locked.
I do not know what to do, I have no ideas.

I think there is not solution for this problem. We have to wait. (I have the same problem but in Al00 running Al19 rom)
How do you check for FRP lock on a Huawei phone just curious.

Okay to unlock the bootloader, go into fastboot and plug in the USB to your computer, then by either using SRK tool or adb you need to flash this command: fastboot oem unlock (insert bootloader code) *don't put brackets* if you are unaware of your bootloader code then I cannot help you, however if you do know it, then once you unlocked the bootloader flash system.img and stuff to see if that works for you

I've tried some command in fastboot mode but there's always an error: Remote: command not allowed.
I can't do anything with fastboot mode
1. Try to force update with Power Button + Min Vol Button + Max Vol Button, liked you said this isn't working try to do the button combination with the phone connect it to the PC; in my case some times dload din't works after I connected the phone to the computer.
2. Other thing, something happend if you turn of the phone and leave Max Vol Button pressed, you should be entering to eRecovery.
3. Remember that sometimes enter in eRecovery mode requires to the phone be turn off otherwise you can't access to Recovery. So if this is the case follow bullet #2 and them #1.
PD: OFC I'm assuming you already have the dload folder with an compatible version of stock ROM on your SDCARD. If you don't have any version tries this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9...dload-file-p9-eva-l09-b136-t3382818?nocache=1
Hope I helped you, I already bricked twice my P9 corrupting System Table Partitions.

If you did the change of Unlock OEM before the bricked in an previous authorized computer you will still have rights for, otherwise new Android Security features is going to rejected the request.

I have a P9 L09, i have unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP recovery, and started flashing some roms. I have succesfully flashed a cyanogenmod, and it booted properly, but when it started it asked me for a password which i did not know, so i google searched and found out that it is a common issue and i need to wipe data from recovery. I tryed that but it did not work it says failed, and nothing works in the wipe advanced section, beside system. And also in the custom recovery it says that the internal storage has 0MB ! I was able to put other custom roms on the SDcard and flash them, they booted but every single one asks for the password.. I then tryed to install stock rom with the dload method, but it crashes and 40% , and i tryied the System Recovery option in HiSuite and it says it is not compatible with my device. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

How to Re-Lock Bootloader?

I need to lock my bootloader to do an exchange at T-Mobile. I have 20R stock flashed, but it still says custom bootloader upon boot, how do I relock it safely?
I read that "fastboot oem lock" will work, but will brick it if I don't do it perfectly. Any advice on what to do?

ive done it .. it works. it will build dalvik once it reboots.
I was able to Lock the bootloader.
1. I connected the phone to my PC
2. Powered on the Phone (it took a few tried of pulling the battery and powering on)
3. Check the box for OEM Unlock in Dev. Option
4. Use Minimal ADB and Fastboot and type in
Quote:
adb devicecs
- you should see the phone listed as one of the devices in the command line window
Quote:
adb reboot bootloader
- phone should reboot and you shouold see 3 lines of text on top
Quote:
fastboot oem lock
- nothing will happen on the phone, but on in the commandline it should say that it is done
Quote:
fastboot reboot
Phone reboots and the boot screen does not show the unlocked bootloader message anymore
I'm terribly sorry if bumping is not ok.
Thought it wasn't worth making a new thread, since my post is about the one above.
Has anybody actually tried these steps above? (Since every other thread mentioning this says it's a one-way only thing..)
Does locking the bootloader means also loosing the custom recovery? (I'd expect that, but asking to be sure)
Does it return the phone to it's original state? (ie. before one unlocked the bootloader, or there are some differences?)
Does it also means I would be able to get official OTA updates and so on? (since with a custom recovery, that's not possible)
Thanks in advance.
Yes, it does work. I did it, worked perfectly. Yes it does return your device to it's original state. Just make sure the stock ROM is flashed and all should be well. I didn't try, but I see no reason why it wouldn't let you get OTA updates from T-Mobile. Let me know if you need help.

ive said ive done it. on the above instructions you dont beleive.??
i think you loose the twrp phone doesnt show unlocked bootloader message did not check recovery but it must revert t stock one.. not sure about OTA since am not in tmobile network.
you dont need OTA. you can always download KDZ and flash it with LGUP.
and stay uptodate.

And no @raptorddd , I did not mean that.
Your post is the only mentioning that locking the bootloader is possible, while all the other similar threads have ony people saying otherwise / it's not possible. I guess a slightly doubt is legit to have, don't take it wrongly

My H811 T-mobile phone needs service. It has original 20v software version. It is unlocked with TWRP and rooted. Can I use this method? Do I first have to downgrade software to some other version? Will this method also take out TWRP and root or do I still have to take them out before doing this? How? Please help.

no need to downgrade. to remove root and any trace if phone works. is to use KDZ then once it boots into system do the lock procedure. so it locks and the small white letter are removed. this way its like stock rom and recovery and the above commmands will make bootloader locked. and sent to repair. if bootloops try the freezing method.
Used on an LG Aristo that has Cyanogen and it worked

This was the only one i found that didnt brick my phone and trust me ive bricked and unbricked this phone many times
When you use the fastboot command to lock back your bootloader, the phone doesn't revert automatically to the stock recovery and actually that is partly the reason why it bricks and other main reason is that changes made to bootloader to obtain root brick the phone. before you relock bootloader, if you have SuperSU (in-app menu option) or Magisk (uninstall zip file), use their respective methods to unroot the phone, then use twrp to flash .image file of stock recovery to recovery partition then use the fastboot command to lock the bootloader. Even then it may or may not work because if whatever method the phone uses to check the integrity of bootloader and/or recovery, such as md5, if it doesn't match, the phone will still brick. Since all your data on phone will be erased regardless as soon as you lock the bootloader, i personally just fastboot lock the bootloader, remove battery to power down, use the volume up and plug usb cable in from pc to put phone in download mode and just use LGUP (uppercut) if have kdz file already, which i do, i just let LG Bridge download the file, find it in programs folder and copy it to another location before LG Bridge deletes it --OR-- just use error recovery option in Software Update tab in LG Bridge as both LGUP and LG Bridge will detect the phone in download mode even if it is bricked.
By the way, I have used both methods above dozens of times without any issues, someone above who mentioned phone boot-looping because of locking the bootloader, it is boot-looping not because of hardware flaw which was widespread in LG G3 but a software issue (phone boots up, doesn't find the software configuration it is looking for and just restarts) and they are not the same issues, no need to freeze the phone, won't help.
the method works, but no OTA from T-Mobile. "verification problem".
When I try to "adb reboot bootloader" I get "security error".
If I try reboot recovery, TWRP is definitely not there.
Just want to update from20Q to 20X.
Any help would be appreciated.

The above points to you not giving permission possibly because either you missed the permission pop-up or selected option that didn't allow permission.

Is it possible to root Rog Phone 3

My phone is Rog Phone 3
WW_17.0823.2012.122
My boot loader is unlock since i used the boot loader unlocking app but i cant seem to flash twrp.
i have everything file necessary to root but when my phone goes into flashboot mode it stops detecting my phone
it detects perfectly fine during "adb devices" but when i run the "adb reboot-bootloader" command then it disconnects.
i also notice that my laptop doesnt have the "android" in "other devices" instead I have "universal serial bus usb" inside device manager.
can anyone help me?
Yes - it is absolutely possible to root!
Please check this forum properly for guides to root; plenty of info on this topic already.

I suggest that you factory reset it, try flashing another ROM (old) and retry. Everything is possible and as a proof my device is rooted, edxposed installed safetynet passing, magisk, TWRP installed. Only thing remaining is to get rid of the bootloader unlocked warning message.

Softbrick? Not sure

Hi guys, thank you ahead for helping me.
I've unlocked the bootloader successfully and installed TWRP and Rooted, but found some issues with Banking apps, PayPal, NFC, Google pay, so I decided to lock the bootloader again.
Following the procedure by Jerry08 downloaded C35, installed via TWRP, and stock recovery was restore just fine.
But while trying to access Bootloader I'm not able to, tried:
adb reboot fastboot
adb reboot bootloader
Holding Vol down and power
Deep-in test says: "you can only apply to exit in-depth test after carrying out bootloader lock operation in fastboot mode"
Last method worked, I get "bootloader" with Chinese words flashes for a second and then reboots to system.
I'm able to boot into stock recovery, but not into Bootloader for some reason, Formatted Data and tried again without luck.
Any suggestions?
Installed RMX1931EX_11_A.09_200116_dfb212dd.ofp with Auth-Flash and MSMTool, you need to purchase credits 7$, use #3 MSMtool from Auth-fash and done bootloader locked and brand new phone.
But bootloader was still unlocked, and not able to access bootloader via adb reboot bootloader.
In-deph test exit does not work either
any updates i have the same problem

Question Unlock bootloader after relocking it

Hey!
I got a Zenfone 8 from a friend, and he told me that he tried to flash Lineage OS once, for some reason he got some errors and ended up going back to the stock ROM and relocking the bootloader.
Now I'm trying to unlock the bootloader again through the ASUS app, but it doesn't work. He tried to help me with some commands through fastboot mode and it also didn't work. There is any way to unlock it again after relocking it once?
He said he used the command 'fastboot oem asus-csc_lk' to relock it, don't know if it is hepful.
edit: We tried 'fastboot oem unlock' 'fastboot flashing unlock' (failed with permission error) and 'fastboot oem asus-unlock' (which resulted in FAILED (remote: 'Verify unlock token fail.')
Also AsusUnlock apk installs succesfully through ADB but fails to unlock with error 24802. Trying to install it through the phone doesn't work and gives me an error.
give more information please, from what build did your friend flash the lineageos? to what build did he go back to? did you install latest working ADB? are the drivers for the fastboot installed correctly? are you connected to the internet when trying to run the app on the phone?

He said he followed what was on the guide he found, first updated to Android 12, the latest on on asus website (WW-31.1004.0404.107), and then tried to flash LineageOS ROM, then he got some errors and went back to Android 12 and relocked the bootloader. He said he never tried anything again. When I got the phone it was on Android 12, I tried unlocking it as I said and it didn't work. Then I downgraded it to 11 using the firmware from asus website (Version Android 12 to Android 11), and tried to unlock it again using Android 11. Also didn't work.
About ADB and Fastboot drivers, they are correctly installed, tried some "standalone" versions and also the one that come with android SDK Platform Tools. Tested it on other devices and it worked well. And the phone was connected to the internet when I tried using the app, I'm sure because I downloaded it on the phone aswell, using the browser.
edit: Actually I'm not sure about the fastboot drivers, I've just downloaded the sdk tools from google website.

That's probably it. But there's any way to unlock the bootloader again so I can give it another try?

I do get the warning screen, but also when checking with fastboot oem device-info it returns this:
C:\Users\delci\Desktop\platform-tools>fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false

The warning appears, but it is not unlocked. Every command fails, device-info says that my device is not unlocked., it is locked.
What I'm trying to do is unlock it.
Let me try to explain what happened again.
The phone has been unlocked to install LineageOS. It didn't work. The past owner then installed the stock rom and locked it using this command: 'fastboot oem asus-csc_lk'.
Then I bought the phone from him, and now I'm trying to unlock it again, but it doesn't work.
The question then is: Is it possible to unlock a phone that has previously been unlocked and then relocked?
Hey, did you got it to work ?
