Broken??? 😏Yeah I did...😔 I can fix it! 🤔CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.😫 - Introductions

Hello Nerd Nation! Thanks for letting me join this fabulous forum!
Can I say, everyone here deserves a cookie. haha No but seriously ya'll do some serious tinkering. Me, I'm more on the physical hardware side.
I'm currently working to root and flash custom ROM on my 'Moto E4 plus XT1776 Owens Qualcomm variant'..? Did I say that right? Unlocking the bootloader was simple but now I'm stuck. I have tried flashing twrp.img into the recovery partition, log says ok but when I try to load into recovery I get error screen saying no recovery found.
Anyway Im a determined little S.O.B. once my mind is set to figure something out. A Challenge I will not lose...

Fastboot success?

Can everyone who unlocked via fastboot method please post the firmware they used here, in 234 I get security error with adb but in fastboot I get option to unlock, trouble is nothing happens when I do. I want to try this with all roms in case a loophole exists somewhere, its the only thing left I can think of, if this doesn't work I'm swapping s3 with GF when she upgrades

If you want to try with all roms its your problem.
You should know better how bootloader unlock works.
All the roms are out there fore you to try them.
To be honest, I don't know how your "thanks meter" grow so much once that you speculate more than you help or give something wortheful.
Life is made of options that we need to deal with... if your happy good, if you're not, your problem, change device, do whatever you want.
Just don't post like if the world is yours and your option will affect all of us.
This "ship" have doors open. Its up to you to stay or to leave. If you leave, I wish you a happy journey and all the best but, choose!!!
Or you stay and deal with it, or leave and leave us with our "issues".
S3 looks like a good device. Go for it and good luck :good:
I'm a deep thinker, and merely ask some input. I've learned quite a lot about android, but still have a lot more to learn. Would be nice for you to give me some insight into how bl unlock works, heard some stuff about fuse but its vague. I love this phone but this is a must for me. A fair few people report success based on what they flashed. I ask questions to learn, and I ask in the appropriate section, so please don't question my thanks meter, I've been around a while but always had an easy unlock solution, or in case of moto defy a very good bypass. This whole region specific stuff is strange to me, I don't pretend to know everything and that's why I ask questions! Don't hate please I've always thought XDA was very unfriendly to noobs, but the longer I've been here the more I realize even seasoned users get burned! I don't have the time to try every rom out there, I have a job to go to, and besides, what's the point of trying something if someone else has already? That's the point of my question

Far from me to hate other user or other user issues.
Things are how they are... Its not easy to deal with nvidia security or LG policies...
You think that if some one had some answer for you (not only) wouldn't give it to?...
I would like to tell you «follow this procedure»... but, I can't!
Take it easy and try to deal with it, or, solve the problem, or wait for a solution... or, change device and you'll be done.

Yes that is true. I'm not expecting an answer to just appear. But people have had success, even 234-000, I've seen the photos. It's possible, there's no doubt in my mind and that is why I try everything I can. Maybe it is just luck but then again I don't think something as precise as a software can be based on luck? All the unlocked users have abandoned the discussions now that cm10.1 is out and it is a little annoying I must admit, so I'm doing everything I can including getting everyone signing that thread I sent to LG (close to 100 btw). I'm sure you aren't hating, just the "that's your problem" and the thanks meter question was a little disrespectful imo. But I know your opinion comes from a good place, I've seen how bad the forum gets spammed and if my post turns out useless I don't care if it's trashed. But like I say, you don't know if you don't try

I have an idea that should work but I can't try , it may fully-brick the device .
Any EUR-xxx user can backup his bootloaders (x-loader/u-boot) in an *.img file :-
Code:
su ; dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p* of=/mnt/sdcard/x-loader.img
And the same for u-boot .. until know I don't know the partition name but it's easy to know it .
x-loader loads before the u-boot , and check for security & hardware (as I remember) and then the u-boot which will load the kernel ,, after that the kernel loads the modems , RIL , display ...
We can flash the bootloaders by fastboot by :-
Code:
fastboot flash x-loader ***.img
fastboot flash u-boot ***.img
And it can be in a *.bin file type .
But maybe this will full brick the phone which means can't enter download mode . Then we will need a *.blob file to nvflash mode to earse the recovery & kernel partitions to force the phone into fastboot .
#------------------------------------------
echo "Sender.product.model=LG-P880" # (O4X) .
if [ $thanks -eq $pressed ] ; then
thanks_meter=$((${thanks_meter} + 1)) ; fi #Press it
My next attempt (when official JB for UK will be released) is to capture all USB traffic with this:
sourceforge.net/projects/usbsnoop/
Hopefully we could then try to decipher what's the protocol used.
If with the UK version we don't get an unlocked boot loader, I will probably give this phone to my gf and I'll buy a Chinese one, at least they are cheap and I don't need a too powerful phone (I'm not a gamer).

Good idea, but is it not worth trying that with euro open to save waiting? I have too many shifts with work to try atm or I would, plus I wouldn't know what the output would mean

I Guess I could, but in this period I'm quite busy as well (work and courses) so I don't have one day to dedicate to this task.
Hopefully after the next 2 weeks I'll have more time and I could try (but using windows annoys me so much ).

My phone has been hardbricked in the unussual way

Long story short: I've unlocked bootloader on my Moto G5S Plus, then rooted it (Magisk ver.). Accidentally, I've installed the SuperSu and pressed flash by TWRP or something like this. There comes the bootloop. So I tried to figure out how to repair it so I've went to TWRP and clear all data, cache and dalvik. But this time my phone didn't want to load even the moto loading screen. It was all the time the unlocked bootloader screen. From this point i was always on the twrp recovery screen or bootloader screen.
I've tried to flash stock firmware but i didn't realize the board name and i flashed potter rom and i should sanders. Then on the screen i had the messege with failed kernel load or smth. Now i cannot flash sanders stock rom, i'm trying all the time and nothing happens.
I'm yelling for help, i'm a newbie in programming an android phones (never actually done this before._.). I'm a student, so if i want to buy new phone (or pay for repair this one), I might have to starve for a month haha
P.S. I would try to reply to all comments, really need your help;-;
Send me an email ([email protected])... I try to help you... cuz I think you got yourself in a very ****ing ****

I need you help. I NEED A SYSTEM.IMG COPY FROM TWRP RECOVERY PLEASE!

Hello everybody.
I actually have bought a NUBIA RED MAGIC 3 Europe model and after test I decided change the firmware to Cn because how you konw is more complete and better.
The problem has been that i´m traying to flash the GAPPS and I forget to do a Secure Copy whit TWRP Recovery and now, i have a importan problem.
After do differtent things with "ADB command" y delete my system, I think, becasue now i can enter to recovery mode, only acept "Fastboot mode" and never continue.
When I turn on, always go to "fastboot mode".
Can you send me a copy doing with TWRP Recovery that I could flash with ADB command???
I downloaded oficial CN and EU firmware ZIP, but, inside, it haven´t "system.img" for example and when I flash "Boot.img" and "recovery.img" I don´t get nothing.
Thank a lot and sorry but my regular english.
Please, help me.
I flash without problem "Recovery.img", or "boot.img" and other, but never continue, it came to "fastboot mode" .
I can´t enter to recovery mode, only "edload mode" and "fastboot mode"
What can I do?

Sakilxda. I have exactly the same problem. I just left my Chinese Red Magic 3 with a cellphone service centre to try an fix it. Another xda member besides myself had exactly the same issue.
I think these cellphones are very sensitive an have not yet developed a software support base.
The other xda member with a his unit stuck in fastboot mode tried to install TWRP like I did.
These cellphones are not for tinkerers like you an me who want apk gapps or TWRP.
The software support base for them needs time to mature.
Sorry buddy.
I have switched to an Mi9 that isn't sensitive an behave in a predictable way.

There is a fix i want to try in this forum. Getting my cell back from service center tomorrow or Monday. The problem appears to be the Chinese rom reacts to flashing an needs to be tricked into being fixed. I will share if I can do it

Read the forums mate. I cannot remember where it is but it's there. It's the Chinese version cells that have this issue. More an more owners are effected by it. Flash anything at all with a Chinese ROM an your stuck in an instant fastboot loop.
The member who fixed it is listed as a junior member on XDA.
That is total nonsense as he is way cleverer than me an I'm listed as a senior member

How to unbrick Red Magic 3

This is the link to the developers unbricking tool
https://forum.xda-developers.com/red-magic-3/how-to/tool-nubia-red-magic-3-unbirck-tool-t3965044
Sorry technical issues copying link lol.
They told you a hundred times, and you couldn't follow simple instructions.
Enjoy your grease, Einstein.
Sir i have the same thing. Im using rm3 when i bought this its already flash on global rom. So im curious because its box is Chinese text but it's global rom so i flash to china rom and its success but suddenly i figure it out that chinarom doesn't have google so i flash again to global rom then suddenly it corrupt after the flash. I tried those method like that unbrick tool non.eu i follow the steps very well but when it comes to the part that cmd will pop 'downloading port 4'
It says that faile and un identified and it says that please check your status or what. I'm humble asking for your help because this is my only phone and i need this for my online school

Look buddy I'm sorry this happened to you. Part of the reason I gave this cell away when I unbricked it was that the very first te it bricked it was bricked 120 days. Is all I can suggest is that you try not to panic an possibly delete system. It's similar to format data. Then try an make a clean start with the unbricking tool. My ex still uses it every day with zero probs an I think it may be an EU rom. These cells are natouriously difficult to customise. I hope you unbrick it soon. An I am sorry there are so many unsympathetic people on XDA who would rather say how ignorant or dumb you are than try an help. I refuse to be like that now. I am just a humble forklift driver. We cannot all be computer experts or write code or roms for cellphones.
Take your time an try an erase the cell in case something you are trying to hold onto is preventing unbricking?
I lost everything on my cell an only had it 2 days when it happened to me. You may lose your data. But erasing might help the unbrick tool work
Good luck. An breathe ok

Hello from Maryland.... how is everyone?¿?¿?

Okay so I'm new to XDA but have used it in the past!! I'm actually a collision repair mechanic lol. But because of this feild I know a thing or two about a thing or two.... sometimes lol. Okay so I need help please.....I have a Red hydrogen one. Model number H1A1000.007h0.01.01.01r.267/267. Okay soooo in the process of rooting. I have successfully unlocked the bootloader through powershell w10. My h1a1000 is a AT&T variaint. Running Android 8.1.0 Oreo. I can not find my device in twrp. I have read other comments and tried methods....soft bricked my phone...fixed with ./adb. My question is how can I pull my stock boot.img/recovery.img/vendor.img using ADB shell commands. Or is there a easyer way? Main partition I need is boot.img, only want other partitions just in case my phone ever gets Hard bricked.....let's hope that doesn't happen lmao. But if anyone helps it will be greatly appreciated and if there's anything I can help with that I have knowledge of I'd be glad to help as well. Thank you for your time.
