Enabled developer options
System->About Phone-> Scroll to bottom and TAP on BUILD 5x (I believe)
then go back once , Developer options , Enable USB DEBUGGING , Authorize your Device and you should be able to proceed onto the bootloader unlocking guide on Motorola's Website

Still not working. Re set the Chromebook even rest the phone. Did everything from the start did the Linux applications restarted the Chromebook didn't go with the Linux applications even got the ADB extensions for the Chromebook and nothing will work still says no permissions when it pulls up the phone I don't know. This isn't like I'm totally brand new to this just never used a Chromebook thanks for your help anyway
i solved the issue with the no permissions in adb. a few minor issues i should of noticed and actually taking the time to think the problem through solved it......
but i somewhere messed up when rooting my phone (shouldnt of been drinking and thought i could still do it...) and know i am in a reboot coming out of my bootloader... will not boot into my recovery whrn it dows its only for a few seconds and the command lines runnung it says that script is finishing but it quickly reboots to a black screen that says bad key and reboots then says n a on it. fastboot will not do anything but say waiting on device. so...... i guess i got a project for a few days
Hi. So I decided it was time to move to EMUI 9 and after looking at various posts on here I believe the easiest way was to you EMUI Flasher to flash the ROM (coming from 8.1 rooted).
The phone restarted and went to EMUI installer but after 10% or so I got an error. It asked if I wanted to go to erecovery or reboot the device (I think). As far as I was concerned it was only checked that the ROM was OK and hadn't installed anything so I selected reboot. Now the phone won't come on. I've tried holding the power button for an inordinate period of time but it's not happening.
Is there anything I can do?
EDIT - I've tried a different USB port on my PC and can see something in the device manager now ---- Kedacom USB Device > Android Bootloader Interface ---- which gives me a sliver of hope this can be fixed.
EDIT2 - I could send img files through fastboot all day (phone was recognised even though it wouldn't turn on) but couldn't fix this. Gave DC Phoenix a try but no luck there either. Think I've killed it.
EDIT3 - Just in case anyone ever comes across this. I tried below but nothing would work so I contacted someone on Telegram who said the only option was to open the phone up and short it out. No way I was attempting that so I eventually contacted Huawei UK and told them it had died during an update, never let on that it was MY fault! Anyway, they sent out a prepaid envelope to send to a their repair partner. I won't name them here but they have terrible reviews on Yelp so I was a bit apprehensive. I know the phone arrived with them last Friday as I checked the post tracking but I never heard anything from them. Today out of the blue my phone has come back to me in full working order, repaired under warranty! Considering there was only one thing I was really using root for and it was only a slight convenience, I think I'll just leave it as is.
Are you able to flash anything in fastboot?
Are you able to boot to recovery via fastboot? Disconnect the cable after you give the reboot recovery command in fastboot.
You may be able to flash each component of emui, system, vendor, oeminfo, kernel etc. Seems that it's missing most or all of it.
Bootloader sounds like it's intact.
Btw. The easiest way to update to emui would be to wait for an OTA from Huawei.
Personally I don't see a point, pie is not as efficient as Oreo nor does it have any features to merit an upgrade, in fact you would lose features (4k zooming, functional TWRP)
Hello everyone,
I've decided to unlock my device to flash vanilla android but I couldn't unlock it. I've tried almost everything but even the latest MiUnlock doesn't recognize my device on fastboot, the PC itself recognizes it before and after getting into fastboot, I hear usb device connected sound and can see the phone under Windows devices.
Adb devices command works if the phone is switched on, my dev settings are ok, oem unlocking and adding account under dev settings are ok, I've tried it with disabled windows signature enforcement too but nothing happened. MiUnlock simply doesn't want to see the device on fastboot.
Can anybody help me, please?

The issue that you are experiencing is strictly with your PC.
You need to ensure that you are using an account that has admin privileges, and be sure that you antivirus is not neutering your usb drivers and Miflash program.
Next, if you are using a newer computer with usb 3 ports, you will need to use a USB hub ( USB 2 is your best option.) , then the phone will be seen in fastboot. As long as you have setup developer options, and your MiCloud account is setup.
Finally, it will take 2 weeks to unlock the bootloader , after your first request. Some people who had been syncing the phone to MiCloud for some time before attempting were able to immediately unlock. Personally we have 3 Mi8's in our house and I had to wait 2 weeks on each one.
To reiterate, your main issue is probably the usb ports, and your antivirus the the 2nd most likely culprit. Worst case use another computer. The process is much easier on older PC's.
you can use the the All in one tool to double check that your drivers, adb , and system wide privileges are up to date and setup correctly. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t3358711
Instructions are available on that thread.
Thanks for your help, I've already tried almost everything you've said up there and even gave a try on virtualbox Windows 7 with USB 2.0 setup.
I remember I've unlocked my friend's device last year on an only USB 2.0 computer, my laptop has unfortunately only two 3.0s and one USB-C. The phone can be seen under fastboot devices command if MiUnlock is not running, if I click on that cr*p program my device either falls from fastboot devices list or says press any key to shutdown.
The main problem is the ports and that damned program itself, how come it lockdowns the connection and after that pc couldn't even show my phone in devices list but can be seen in device manager. I'm literally shocked by the cheapness of this very software.

Again the issue is with windows, I have personally dealt with the exact same issue. That is why I recommended using an older computer that has not been recently updated.
But you are absolutely right, Xiaomi has not made any development improvements with their desktop applications in over a year and that is ridiculous.
I would suggest using alternate versions of the software : I just did a google search and on this link people were saying just one week ago that this linked software worked for them, note its a video, the software link is in the description : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_PEAJ-n2_c
Finally, I am personally using this version of Mi Flash : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410932744536991669 on a brand new intel PC.
and the last time that I unlocked a xiaomi phone I used unlocker software from here ( Note the multiple versions at bottom of page)

If one doesn't work try another. just be sure that you have developer options setup correctly and that you are signed in a syncing with mi-cloud. You will get it unlocked eventually. I can assure you that it was a Pain in the A*$ for me too!
Thanks man, these are the exactly same links I’ve found and checked out while trying to connect my phone but I just gave up after three days of struggling and pressing volume+power buttons and ordered a USB 2.0 hub online. Unfortunately there are no older computers around me or anyone I can ask for because of you know, the quarantine. I’m actually using cloud actively, so I should better be prepared for an immediate unlocking, and backup my data beforehand as usual.
Just wanted to write about the news, I've backed up my data and connected my device to MiUnlock on USB 2.0 Hub and ta-da it's immediately unlocked without any waiting time. That was a smooth process, I'm shocked but happy.

Nice, so my original suggestion about using 2.0 usb was correct. I am glad that you have the issue sorted. I am also surprised about you being able to avoid the wait time. That is a nice break. Enjoy your phone.
PS: Be sure to make a full TWRP backup and save it to your desktop. That backup will save you if you ever experience a bad issue.

Thanks man, and yes that was all about fastboot which is written to be used with older usb versions. After plugging in the hub, it’s connected directly in just milliseconds. I am surprised that I’ve really skipped the waiting for two weeks or maybe more and yeah it makes me happy.
I made a full data backup before unlocking and then all the dangerous partitions including modem, efs and bluetooth in TWRP to avoid any irreversible loss. I never skip my recovery backups since 2010 and my first Android smartphone which was an HTC Desire A8181, I learned it in a hard way to never skip them, if you do, you either lose your data or your mobile device identification. :victory:
A question from a Xiaomi-newbie; If I run clean all and lock command on MiFlash, should I wait for an unknown time to unlock the device again? Or does Xiaomi let users to lock/unlock their devices anytime without waiting if you’ve unlocked your bootloader once before?

I have only unlocked my device once. But I wouldn't think there would be an issue to unlock a second time. In fact, I have read about some people needing to wait 72 hours to unlock it again after relocking. if using Mi-Flash just try to be sure uncheck that lock bootloader box, that is unless you want it locked.
One last thing, if you ever decide to restore the phone using the flashall.bat method, the bootloader stays unlocked.
Hello guys, I'll try to explain what happened giving just a few context that may help give me some right direction to recover the user data that were in the phone.
As this thread got longer than I expected, summarising:
Moto G XT1033 drained battery, got into bootloop, only fastboot was working, couldn't get into recovery mode ("boot up failed"). When I tried to replace battery, after power on it's now bricked (as "qhsusb_bulk" in PC). My main goal, save user data (whatsapp folder mainly), to flash and restore Android.
Whole situation detailed, what happened:
I have a Motorola Moto G 16GB Music Edition Dual SIM XT1033 (Music edition) 2014, sold in Brazil. It was working for all these years fine, avoided upgrading Android KitKat from 4.4 because it just worked fine. In past months I noticed the battery holding less and less charge, but as I intended to buy a new phone soon I didn't care.
Unfortunately, couple days ago I heard the sound of notification "low battery... powering off". Then I plugged the charger cable and waited some time, after that, I thought it would just boot up normally, it showed "M" loading screen, with the animation etc, but it went to black screen and loop to loading screen again and again.
I tried to hold power and volume down, it went to fastboot, and when I tried start "recovery mode" but it would just say "boot up failed".
I searched for threads and people who had issue like mine and in fact, I found someone who described exactly the same problem I had, user named @ravibhat here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/moto-g-bootup-problem-recovery-mode-t3122492
While he didn't say he was able to fully flash his smartphone and get it back working, he said he was able to recover all his user data. I was really trying to follow his steps to at least, recover all user data, BUT, before that, my Moto G got hard bricked.
As I have another Moto G XT 1033, the exact same model as this one, but with a working battery, I thought it would be plausible to replace the battery so I could have more safety when fixing the phone, but it didn't work as that. Instead, after I disconnect and reconnect the battery, the Moto G is now hard bricked, as it doesn't boot up anymore, not even holding power + volume buttons, holding for 60s or 120s, none, nada. Rarely, the LED light blink once, nothing more. I connected to PC and it recognized as "qhsusb_bulk", after disconnecting and connecting the phone back to Windows 7, it automatically tried to install drivers and now it would just show "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader...." in device manager .
Now I have two issues, first, make it come back to state where I could open fastboot. Second, try to dump/save all user data, to then make a total flash/factory reset to see if I can get it working again.
After searching for hard brick and "qhsusb_bulk", I found this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-revive-hard-bricked-moto-g-t2833798) and this (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/guidy-to-unbrick-hard-bricked-moto-g-t3875035) that says it will recover from it, but it didn't mention IF IT WILL compromise or delete all user data. Will it?
I don't want to just go and try a bunch of (possible danger) commands and guides without having some experienced people giving advices on how to perform actions, or even if it's possible to "make some backup" of current situation, "copying whole partition", etc, before installing and flashing anything.
Device INFO:
Android version was 4.4. No Root. Bootloader is LOCKED. No customizations.
ADB Debugging state is unknown, probably it was just the default value.
What I want:
I want to get a copy of all my internal storage data, eg: WhatsApp folder, etc. Better if I could get whole storage image and just flash OS and boot loader to get back as it was...
Trying to flash it in any way that causes data loss would be my last option, but @ravibhat who had same issue few years ago couldn't even get it back working again.
What @ravibhat found out:
He thought bootloader UNLOCK would wipe all internal memory user data, but he did it and still could get all files using TWRP 2.8.x.x.
"To root the phone, I’ll have to UNLOCK the Bootloader."
"ADB can be used to backup using PUSH, PULL (may or may not require Android USB Debugging enabled)": he couldn't get it to work using adb push/pull.
Please, I would really appreciate any help from anybody, also from following users @ravibhat , @lost101 , @Teddy Lo , @Kamin4ri , @oversleeper , @jdawc7 , @sd_shadow , @SahilTech , @liveroy , @bouba148 , @bejunk , @Wolfcity, @skad00sh, @FabioSan.

It should not delete the user data. I'm saying this out of logic though, I've never tested it.
Technically the Motorola qboot utility will ripristinate the bootloader only, without modifying any other area of the memory.

Thanks @oversleeper, I was a bit afraid because of the "blank-flash.bat" name.. but as I don't know of any other method of beginning this recovery other than unbricking using this qboot bat script, I will end up giving it a chance.
As I said before, Windows 7 auto installed the "Qualcomm HS-USB QLoader 9008" driver as soon as it recognized the "qhsusb_bulk". Do you think I should try to uninstall it and start from step 1 on this guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-revive-hard-bricked-moto-g-t2833798) installing the "Riff BOX JTAG drivers + Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider"?
Yes, I suggest that you install the driver's as advised in that old thread. Also, you will need to use the right qboot utility, for the right model and version of the bootloader that you have or it won't work. Unfortunately I can't help with that, you will need to search the internet and may luck be with you.
I just saw an update notification that Android 11 had been released. Since my phone was running Android 10, I proceeded the update without hesitation (and without backup). The phone is running stock rom without root (I guess I did unlock the bootloader but couldn't confirm since this new rom version cannot boot into fastboot mode). After update, the lock screen keeps flicking and I cannot unlock the phone. I tried booting into safe mode but got the same flicking lock screen.
The rollback pack has flagged 'ota-downgrade=yes' so data will always be wiped.
Code:
... "ota-downgrade=yes" will be set in the package metadata file. A data wipe will always be enforced when using this flag...
I guess my last hope is that
Option 1) Wish I really did unlock the boot loader and some gurus found a way to boot into fastboot mode and flash the customer recovery/android 10 so I can pull my photos/videos by adb.
Option 2) Tried booting into recovery but no new OTA update available. Wait for new OTA update
Option 3) Some found a way to
a) boot into EDL/Download mode and
b) flash TWRP/Android 10 using QPST/QFIL (Not possible currently since Qualcomm QPST/QFIL tools did not work and official realme flash (MSMDownloadTool) ALWAYS wipe your data!)
Option 4) Someone got the private key so we can sign our customized-made update_pack and copy photos/videos to OTG USB Drive under Recovery.
Option 5) Someone share a rollback pack with 'override_timestamp=yes' instead of "ota-downgrade=yes" so data will NOT be wiped
Any comments are welcome

No.
I want my data back and waiting for next update seems to be the only hope. Reported to realme but get no response.
If you have similar issue and don't care your data, you can do factory reset.
Am on the same boat here, Bluetooth devices still get automatically connected, USB works (mouse and keyboard) but still haven't found a way past the flicking login screen.
Happened overnight and last backup was quite a few months ago, definitively need to get the data back.
- Edit: Booting to safe-mode doesn't help either.
- Edit2: Can't attempt any update because the device is not accepting my lockscreen password either.

If you disabled or uninstalled the coloros calendar package via ADB, enable or reinstall it again via ADB, the new System UI in the Android 11 update relies on it
This really sucks.
Any solution yet? Would be happy if I could just get access to my photos...
BTW for future reference, I'm on a Realme X Lite. I actually was positively surprised with this phone (up and running perfectly for over 2 years), but this policy is quite shocking...

Just wonder if there is any way to sideload apk via adb since I can't even go to the home screen and accept adb connection.
Almost one year passed but no progress. No firmware update either.

I forgot what I exactly did to get out of the situation. From what I very vaguely remember, it might have involved tapping where the Allow button would be very quickly before the whole UI crashes. Then, depending on whether you disabled or uninstalled the weather package, you either enable or "install-existing" the package name.
How to install / get back uninstalled Apps (APKs) with ADB.
A lot of people searched for a way to uninstall bloat or APKs using ADB because a lot of OEMs don't allow uninstalling many of preinstalled apps. Tested on Pie and Oreo. BUT most of the articles if not all of them ( couldn't find any article...

Thanks for the tips. It seems my situation is a bit difference. I can't even see the unlock pattern screen to let me unlock the phone before I can tap "allow" for USB connection and entering ADB commands. Maybe yours have the screen lock disabled before updating.
