cmd with adb...
And I followed the steps meticulously - unlocked bootloader etc, but I get to the "writing recovery part" -
And it says FAILED (remote not allowed in locked state)
I don't get it! =(
I have unlocked bootloader, I have installed drivers, I did EVERYTHING...
Any advice?
In dev options it says my bootloader is unlocked however when I type:
fastboot oem unlock -
It comes up with options to unlock press vol up
but volume up button does not acknowledge me pressing it!!!
Please delete this thread no longer valid
thanks

I'm trying to de-softbrick an Evo3D for an aquaintance, and I've run out of ideas, so any help this forum is willing to offer is muy apreciada.
Info about phone:
UNLOCKED
HBOOT 1.5
S-ON
Phone will not boot to OS. Phone will boot into hboot. Recovery menu does not function, it shows the fastboot menu instead. Selecting Fastboot takes you to the Fastboot menu, which seems to work fine. Factory Reset option takes you to Fastboot menu.
Initially phone seems to load PG86IMG.zip for flashing, but when the blue loading meter fills up, it says "parsing PG86IMG.zip" for a second and then boots me back to the hboot menu, without asking me to install the file. I've tried both the stock rooted and unrooted zips.
Tried plugging the phone into my computer and running the RUU exe. It will not detect the phone, which I'm guessing is because the phone won't boot into the OS. Also, phone does not appear to respond to any adb or fastboot commands (tried doing adb pull and fastboot reboot, neither worked).
EDIT: Now the phone is detected by the RUU, but I get a 155 error code, and the phone says "Security fail!" and "Update fail!"
Again, any help is appreciated.
What happens when you try to run any fastboot command?

Here's the output of the fastboot oem lock (it's responding to fastboot commands now YAY!):
Code:
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot oem lock
...
(bootloader) Lock successfully...
(bootloader) TZ_HTC_SVC_DISABLE ret = 66977136 (0x3FDFD70)
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.936s
It does show the phone as relocked now, but right below the pink "***RELOCKED*** I also have ***SECURITY WARNING***. The security warning part seems to go away if I boot into hboot with the sd card removed.
EDIT: RUU worked on the second try after this. Thanks a ton!
I'm having the same issue but the link to the RUU does not work anymore, can anyone repost?

Does USB come up next to Fastboot? If so can you reflash CWM?
Hello,
I'm trying to unlock the bootloader on Cube1 M400. With "adb reboot bootloader" I can reboot the device to the fastboot mode. After "fastboot oem unlock" an Yes/No option appears on the device's display and It says to use Volume Up/Down buttons to choose but after pushing the buttons nothing happens, no option is highlighted. The device is sim-unlocked and not from the carrier. Thank you for help.
I have the Huawei Ascend Y300-0151 and am trying to unlock the bootloader, in which I cannot get through their website because it's really buggy and won't accept my information.
So these are the steps I've taken:
- Download SDK Manager and install platform-tools and Google USB Driver
- Boot my phone up and connect to the PC
- I can run the command 'adb devices' and my device shows with a unique ID.
- Boot my phone into recovery/download mode (purple screen).
- Connect my phone, the PC detects it.
- However, when I run the command 'fastboot devices', nothing shows up.
Yes, I have installed a driver for my device and it's now showing as Android Bootloader Interface.
I've run out of ideas and have been googling for answers for a very long time, but to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Given that your attempting to unlock the bootloader of your Huawei device, you should probably send an email to Huawei support requesting for your bootloader unlock code (thats what I did and they replied asking for my device information, and I gave it to them to which I then got my unlock code). For ADB to work you need to boot into fastboot mode, not recovery, then simply use the bootloader unlock code with the following command in cmd: fastboot oem unlock <insert your code here>
And then your done. Be cautious when unlocking your bootloader as you should make sure you have your developer options enabled and the "allow bootloader to be unlocked" option enabled as well.

I have e-mailed them 2 weeks ago and they are not replying. You're meant to do it through their website, but as I've said, I supply the correct information and it either re-directs to a page that is not there or says I am not entering my information correctly when I've done it over and over again.
The purple screen is fastboot mode isn't it? Because that's the screen I'm entering the commands in, but it's not showing up. I cannot enter in a code for fastboot oem unlock because my device will not be recognized by fastboot in the first place.
So before I am to unlock my bootloader, I'm trying to get my device recognized by fastboot.

You can send them an email to get the unlock code, trust me, thats what I did. Maybe try contacting them via their support section of their site if you didn't do so last time.
By the "purple screen" do you mean the screen with options such as "HBOOT", "Fastboot", "Reboot" etc.? The "fastboot devices" command should work if it is recognised by the command "adb devices"

I'll give it a go again, thanks.
By purple screen, I mean holding down the power button and both volume control buttons and the screen boots into a purple screen. Just a purple screen, that's it. I can boot into two other modes by holding down the power button and the volume up button and another by holding the power button and volume down button. I don't have a boot mode that displays any options as you've listed above.
EDIT: I'm in fastboot mode now! It was the mode where you hold down the power button and volume down button. Hahaha. I'll let you know how I get on with unlocking the bootloader. Thanks for your help
No problem, if you found my replies helpful please press the thanks button! It is much appreciated!
Hello, I'm trying to unlock my bootloader. My model number is Lenovo A916. I am noob about this and just try to go through. I have followed this steps using ADB:
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot oem unlock
But after this, message pops up "... press Volume+ to continue, and Volume- to cancel", if i press "Volume+" button, nothing happens, and if i press "Volume-" button, operation cancels. In normal boot, my volume up works fine, but it doesn't work when i want to unlock the bootloader
What i should do to fix it?
Is there any apps that I can control from pc to click volume+ to say yes to unlock bootloader?
Or there are another way to unlock bootloader?
Please help me, thanks.
Hi all,
How can I wipe the cache partition on a Poco F1 with 10.3.6.0 Global stable (stock, so not rooted)? Booting in recovery mode gives me a custom recovery with only the option to wipe all data. Can Mi Assistant help here? Or are there other options?
Google would have helped you... Reboot to recovery and try 'fastboot erase cache'. Sometimes you need a 'sudo su' before that.

Well, as I said: I have stock ROM. As far as I see I do not have any option to erase system cache in the default recovery.
As I said as well: I have stock firmware, perhaps should have added locked bootloader. So no possibility to use fastboot (again, correct me if I'm wrong).
If the only option is to unlock the bootloader I can just replace recovery with TWRP, but I'd like to avoid having to unlock...
Hi there,
First enable USB debugging in the developer options. To enable developer options, you have to tap five times on the miui version in the about phone. Connect your PC and accept the pop up in your phone to register the pc in your phone. Power off your phone first and press power button and volume down simultaneously to take you to fastboot mode. If it goes to bootloader mode, then select the option to go to fastboot mode. If the bootloader mode is in Chinese then search some forums to select the fastboot mode appropriately.
Before all these. Install minimum ADB tools in your PC. Execute fastboot commands once connected to your phone in fastboot mode.
This is very simple once you are familiar with the process. Until then these seems a nightmare'.
Cheers

Hit thanks if it helps you.
And just to add to the above instructions, you don't need an unlocked bootloader, just have USB debugging enabled, to use fastboot.
You use fastboot to unlock the bootloader and it would be a mite hard (and redundant) if you needed the bootloader unlocked to unlock the bootloader...
Also, just to confirm the phone is being detected in fastboot mode use the command "fastboot devices" to see if the phone is recognised.. It should show a number otherwise if it is just a blank space fastboot hasn't recognised your phone...

Got it into fastboot, but now it throws an error. Google search did not give a real solution.

With that error shown I'm not sure what formatting will do. If the current type is ext4, then you should be fine. But it is looking like you're a candidate for unlocking your bootloader...
