I am not a developer, but would like to consider myself an advanced user.
After unlocking the bootloader, I have installed custom ROMs on three different devices at different times. I have also installed the stock ROM. But have never locked the bootloader back.
However, on the current device (that was looping through the bootloader), I installed the stock ROM (RETAILDSDSALL_XT1022_4.4.4_KXC21.5-40_cid7_CFC.xml) and locked the bootloader. Successfully updated it to the official OTA Lollipop 5.1.
After that, I just tried my luck to install Ubuntu Touch (ported actually for Moto G [falcon] by h2o64, based on this thread). I unlocked the bootloader again for this. The install was 'successful' (there were no errors surprisingly), but the device obviously did not boot.
Now, I wanted to reinstall the stock firmware on the device. This time however, it fails at this command:
sudo fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
Here's the result >
target reported max download size of 299892736 bytes
sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.087s]
writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.667s
I have used fastboot in Linux all the other times I said I installed custom and stock ROMs.
However, I tested with mfastboot on Windows 10 as well, with no luck.
I am also able to successfully install TWRP recovery on the device and erase "system", "cache" and "userdata" using fastboot. However, cache and dalvik cache removal fails on TWRP.
Finally, although the partition flash command (which I personally understand as creating the partition table - correct me here please) and the motoboot.img flash command failed, I ran the rest of the commands and successfully installed the stock ROM mentioned above. However, this time, the "fastboot oem lock" command fails.
Any suggestions would be of great help... (it's not my phone)
Okay guys, I'm in full panic mode. I was just getting ready to reinstall my X with Lineage OS. I had CM 13.0 up until now. I've backuped everything, then powered off my phone (simple, normal power down).
After that I was trying to get into TWRP (I had 2.x.x.x installed), but VolDown+Power got me in a boot loop. The OnePlus Logo flashes, phone vibrates short then reset and it flashes/vibrates again. I tried booting normally, that doesn't work either.
The only thing I can do is get into fastboot, but I can't flash anything! The phone says it's locked (though I unlocked it before I put CM 13.0 on it)

Help! I can't boot my phone and I can't flash anything either. Is there anything I can do or missed?
After 2 hours of trying everything I found I'm now at a point where I could install the original (?) recovery via the MSM DownloadTool 2.0.2. Now I have a recovery which looks like stock... I can "Install from local" and "Install from USB". Tried the latter and I get the "adb sideload" mode. Tried to upload the latest Lineage OS Nightly through this sideload, but it fails after 47%.
If possible Flashing oos 3 might help or there's unbricking guide for opx you might want to see

Thanks! That was actually the solution: the stock recovery can only flash OOS, it seems. I flashed OOS 3.1.4, then enabled oem unlock, flashed TWRP and Lineage.
Still no idea why my phone wouldn't boot after powering it off or why my bootloader was locked in the first place.
Anyway you got out of trouble ??
I have the exact same problem, only I am running Sultan's ROM. Unfortunately, my phone is not backed up, because I wasn't going to install a new rom or anything. Is there any way to restore my phone without losing data. I downloaded the MsmDownloadTool V2.0, and am wondering if I could replace the stock recovery.img in there with the one for my ROM, or would this not work?
Ok, so I tried replacing the recovery.img, and it didn't work, so I used the original one from the tool and dirty flashed OOS 3.1.4. All my original files and apps are still there, but none of them will open, except for google apps, which I assume came in the OOS ROM (Google Play works but says 'download pending' if I try to download an app). Unfortunately, this mix of software doesn't let me enable developer options in the settings (when I tap the build number nothing happens) so I can't use ADB to make a backup. I think the only way to get things working is to do a clean install OxygenOS, which would lose all my files. I'll think I'll try to use a file manager to copy the contents of the internal storage to a USB device, then do a full clean install.
Also, in this weird state of software, only the back button works, the home and recent apps keys don't, so if I do something in Chrome, I need to restart the phone to do something else

I also faced that issue too and it happens when you have installed custom rom or recovery without first unlocking the bootloader. Do It Now If you haven't
Actually the bootloader was already unlocked (I needed that to install CM in the first place), but I think I accidentally re-locked it when I tried to remove root (to install a banking app).
As I wrote I already fixed the issue by installing the original bootloader/recovery and OOS over a serial link, then unlocked the bootloader again and installed the latest TWRP And Lineage. So all is fine now.

Rule #1 of flashing: always have a backup ready.
If you have TWRP installed and can get into recovery you can pull your files via ADB. After that I'd also recommend a clean install (full wipe).

I have to agree, but I wasn't flashing when the phone decided to brick itself , so I didn't have a recent backup. In the bricked state I could only access fastboot mode, not recovery . I ended up copying what I could from the internal storage partition (which basically had everything I needed anyway), then clean installing a new ROM, and restoring my files.
For anyone else who gets into the same situation, I recommend that you make sure to not turn on WiFi or mobile data after you dirty flash OxygenOS, and remove your Google account. This will mean that Google's backup of your phone and apps (if you turned that feature on) will be of your working setup. As I tried to use Google Play in the messed up system, Google decided to replace my backup with the bad config so I couldn't restore in the new ROM - although looking at the Google Drive app now, the good setup is backed up, only I have no way to restore it
Maybe I have the same problem, not sure. I can't boot the phone. Holding vol down + power only makes the phone reboot over and over until I let go. It turns off afterwards, never enters recovery mode. I can access fastboot mode, but my bootloader is locked so I can't flash anything. Any suggestions?
So I bought a son new phone.
As he told he installed magisk first, flashing "magisk_patched.img" through windows shell, everything was fine. Then He flashed twrp and magisk, everything was almost fine, he noticed that he cant play audio. He was trying to fix it first through installing magisk audio mods like viper and sauron. It didn't fixed anything, he unistalled it, everything was still in the same state, so he decided to flash stock frimware. He flashed through mi flashing tool, unfortunetaly It was image for "global xiaomi version" I mean "PFQMIXM" when as far as I know It should be "PFQEUXM". It didn't work and he was stuck in a bootloop. He found "MiUi 11 " image and for still unknown to me reason thought that it is going to fix everything. He flashed It again through mi flashing tool. It didn't work. He did that second time but at last he just closed the flashing tool while it was doing its thing.
At last he found eu firmware but now after all of that when i try to flash it or single files like crc list i get this:
flash crclist "E:\ModCR\adb\images\crclist.txt"
Sending 'crclist' (0 KB) FAILED (Write to device failed (Unknown error))
fastboot: error: Command failed
Device only boots to fastboot (no recovery/twrp either).
I tried erasing cache:
./fastboot erase cache
Erasing 'cache' FAILED (Write to device failed (Unknown error))
fastboot: error: Command failed
I tried to check slots:
./fastboot getvar active-slot
getvar:active-slot FAILED (Write to device failed (Unknown error))
Finished. Total time: 5.003s
I tried to change slot:
./fastboot set_active b
fastboot: error: Device does not support slots
When i typed "fastboot devices" It appeared as "??????"
./fastboot devices
???????????? fastboot
I don't know how to fix it, If anyone knows or has any kind of even small idea please write it down. I would be very greatfull.

What i understand from op post is that fastboot commands are not working. So how will he flash twrp?
The firmware version doesn't matter at all you can flash EU on global and vice versa it doesn't matter.
What I think happened was your son never switched to slot 'a' before using mi flash.
Xiaomi's install script for miflash requires you to be on slot 'a' before flashing.
The only way to recover from this is edl mode which requires a xiaomi verified account to fix.
MOD EDIT: Part removed
Please do not advertise/recommend remote unlock services on XDA. Please read the FORUM RULES especially those:
I have two N200.
I successfully rooted both of them. Some how the second phone got updated to android 12 and lost the root. Ever since this is a headache. Phone is already unlocked boot loader and shows "Device state - unlocked" in fastboot mode.
I wanted to try booting from the patched boot.img i had earlier (From version 11 i assume) just to see if it works but the command fails:
fastboot boot boot.img
Sending 'boot.img' (98304 KB)
Booting Failed (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Also maybe this is due to being on android 12? If so how can i downgrade? I downloaded the zip file from:

Thank you.
First, I don't think you can use your previous boot. Scanman has a thread on this forum with all pre-rooted boot files, you just need to match according to the FW you're on. Second, after A12 they don't allow fastboot boot anymore, the file has to be flashed instead with fastboot flash.
Again, make sure you use the correct boot otherwise it won't work and you may cause yourself a bigger headache.
Hello guys...
So, without going too much into details of how I idiotically f-ed up pretty much everything... I just want to say that I've already lost about 12 hours reading through the forum trying to solve the problem and to understand how everything works, and by what I understood... I bricked the phone?
Firstly, I managed to unlock the bootloader with the HCU Client (Phone unlocked, FRP unlocked). At some points I've managed to boot into TWRP's, but I flashed them without understanding that I should have installed the recommended ones by the guys on this forum instead of the official one, with which I wiped System and Data partition.
I've tried hard but never managed to boot any of the Custom ROMs available, especially the LineageOS 16 which I wanted but later on, through a specific TWRP which gave an error information that it's meant for Hisilicon, and not for Kirin SoC...
I also had no idea when I was booting into recovery, and when into erecovery, because I flashed TWRP over both of them... I have really no idea what was the last thing to happen, but now it seems as if I can't boot into eRecovery anymore, and whatever I try flashing to the recovery_ramdisk over Fastboot, I just always get the same error when trying to boot into recovery
Error! Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed!)
Now I'm also having an issue because my battery has drained and it doesn't seem to turn on without it being connected to the charger or a PC.
Is there anything that I can do to make it work with any Custom ROM?

Alf is right:
Gather info about your phone with the fastboot commands -Alf- provided.
Using this info, find TWRP that 100% supports your phone. TWRP that is recommended in the "p20 lite basics" thread on XDA.
Start phone in fastboot mode. Use the fastboot boot twrp.img command to TEMPORARILY boot into TWRP (twrp.img must be in the same folder as fastboot.exe)
If TWRP hangs, reboot, try another TWRP
Once you are in TWRP, perform wipe and advanced wipe to clean up EVERY PARTITION (except sdcard) that you've messed up in the internal memory.
wipe data again to enable USB file transfer
Find a ROM for your phone. USE THE INFO FROM STEP 1 to figure out if the rom is REALLY for your model AND hardware revision of the phone. Pay attention to the device serial number and codename! ROMS developers use device codenames to indicate what model is compatible and what isnt. Huawei p20 lite has a total of 7(!!!) hardware revisions, and ROMS for each are different and likely NOT cross-compatible, which means if you install the wrong one, you will end up with a brick or a bootloop.
While TWRP is still on, Transfer ROM.zip to the phone.
In TWRP, use "Install" option to flash the ROM.
DO NOT FLASH TWRP PERMANENTLY! LET THE STOCK RECOVERY BE. FLASHING TWRP TO A/B (DUAL SLOT) DEVICES WILL 99% RESULT IN A BOOTLOOP. MOST MODERN DEVICES ARE A/B.
Flash Gapps if you need.
Reboot. Will take longer to start on the first boot.

I see. Some phones have this issue. where bootloader will not allow the "boot" command. Can be for a number of reasons:
1. Bootloader isnt "fully" unlocked, please check with the unlocking guide/service provider (if unlock was a paid service)
2. Bootloader is in "retail" mode, not a "service" mode. Some manufacturers do not intend for bootloader to be unlocked, and ship the devices with a restricted "retail" version that blocks certain commands.
also, why is your fastboot sending the "boot.img" while the command had " twrp img" as a payload?
I take it the bootloader still lets you use the "flash" command? If true, flash TWRP temporarily by "fastboot flash boot twrp.img", restart teh phone using the recovery menu keycombo

Thank you, I've put them in blender and set it to "lightspeed" mode
I'm sorry, but flashing that TWRP gives me the exact error I've been getting before when trying to boot into Recovery... the fact that the phone can't charge also gives some headache to actually even try to boot into the recovery. I just can't get into.
Edit: The furthest I can get to is that recovery error message.
hi there..was reading about your problem..i'm not sure if the same rules apply to all or most phones with regards to flashing twrp or using fastboot..i'm assuming that they do.
So, are you able to boot into fastboot and/or recovery?
if no to recovery, i guess it may be the wrong twrp, i hope you can at least boot into fastboot without any issues.
Personally i had a xiaomi poco f2 pro 6/128 and then i bought another same model phone but 8/256 from a fellow who almost bricked his phone..it was just blinking, when i restarted the phone, it went straight into blinking whenever i tried to boot into recovery, and it wouldnt boot into system anyway cos there was nothing there. so i figured it was stuck in recovery loop.
i was fortunate that i was able to hook up to it using my pc...then using command prompt, i was able to switch to fastboot mode..then i tried downloading and flashing different twrps, over 10 different twrps, and finally one worked..then it was smooth sailing from then on..and presto, that became my daily use phone.

Can you boot into eRecovery (into TWRP installee over eRecovery)? If so, try to flash eRecovery_ramdisk.img in TWRP,
download Here for EMUI 9.1
or Here for 8.0 (I'm not sure what is your current version).
In eRecovery mode you can charge the phone ( charging should also work in TWRP which is installed instead of eRecovery).

I've tried both, they give me the same error.
After I flash the recovery I can't really reboot straight into recovery because of the issue with the battery... somehow I gotta hold the Volume UP key, while catching exact moment when I can unplug USB after the low battery status page passes, and before Huawei logo appears...
After unlocking the phone I flashed TWRP over either recovery or erecovery (idk anymore)... then I probably installed Pixel Experience 13 ROM (https://github.com/ponces/treble_build_pe/releases)
And after that... I tried too many things I can't even remember anymore.
