Basic question:
I wonder if there is a way to put an Android phone into sideload mode.. I know I can select the ADB sideload option in TWRP, but is there a way to do it from the command line (from the PC)?
Thanks in advance for any pointers!

Once you have enabled Sideload under TWRP, open Command Prompt inside the Android SDK Platform Tools folder and type in adb sideload filename.zip
I know this, but my question is how to enable/enter sideload mode WITHOUT touching twrp, i.e. just issue a command on the PC, like `adb reboot sideload`.

not how it works
how do you expect TWRP to know to go into sideload mode? the key word here is "mode" its a mode, youre switching from normal mode into sideload mode....unless theres a TWRP build out there that responds to telekinesis, youre going to have to go the extreme effort to tap 2 buttons and swipe to enable it like the rest of us schmucks ...is this a lazy millennial enquiry?...we see a lot of those...or is there a specific reason youre asking this you'd like to share that perhaps will help to understand better
I do not expect anything. I merely asked if it is possible.
I do not see why it is so unthinkable for it do it. Perhaps you are more familiar with how TWRP works. If this is a case, it would be more constructive to explain it in a few words rather than lashing out at me without knowing anything about me and my reasons for asking in the first place.
You could use it for automation, or in case the touch is not working for a particular model...

you can do many things with TWRP remotely, even backup via command line, but mode switching sadly isnt one of them
wasnt "lashing out" thats just my sense of humour, was treating it in a lighthearted way, rather than just going "no"
for reference, all the available TWRP commands are here:
TWRP Commandline Guide
</style>CLIENT SIDE/SCRIPTinstall FILENAME : install FILENAME zip file.
twrp.me
Thank you for the clarification - no hard feelings!

Right, might be wrong section, and completely sure this has been asked somewhere.
I am very keen, I just dont know where to start.
My 10.1v just decided to start screwing around. It is like it is frozen? With the screen off. Yet I can hear emails being received. And when I put it on charge, the screen goes on, yet it is in a frozen state (time stays the same) I have rebooted it a view times, no joy. So my idea is to wipe the thing, and reload the software. what does it entail? where do I start? I see all these terms, but not sure what they mean?
Please assist if I'm in the right section?
Cheers!
You're in the wrong section. This is for DEVELOPMENT only. Your post should go in the Q&A.
I'd say you can start by reading the sticky posts in the 10.1(v) dev forum.
Basic steps are:
1. Unlock the bootloader (read sticky carefully)
2. Root your device (read sticky carefully)
3. Install a ROM (verify partition and CWM)
mate check out this thread, make sure you have proper drivers in place and kies installed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1083517
good luck
Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum
Please Post in the Correct Forums & Read the Forum Rules
Moving to Q&A
Depends if you prefer a custom or a stock ROM, Custom ROM's usually have major custom changes, but the stock, yeah plain as ice.
I don't know if he want's to root it or if he has, since warranty get's void that way.

assuming the TWRP is the right one for your device, boot into recovery or fastboot and disable avb/dm-verity by flashing vbmeta_disabled.img

I have fix this one but now I got internal test os and can't update
please be descriptive it's hard to follow you... "have fixed this" doesn't reveal anything about:
- what was the previous phone state?
- what guide you followed (link)?
- what files used (link)?
- what tools used?
- what exact steps have you done?
- what is your current phone state?
If you "have fixed this" successful already:
- what is your current (new) issue?
- is the issue related to your previous issue (new question)?

My problem is can't get ota updates and I got nv ram problemand and it has a very old firmware
so I use my crystal ball... you flashed phone from SP Flash Tool in forbidden mode Format All + Download. you did not make a backup (read back) first. device unique partitions like persist, nvram (not included in stock ROM) are gone and you lost calibration data, mac address, IMEI etc.
you can try to restore IMEI, however you did neither answer any question nor shared any link you were following, so I you're on your own... Good Luck
CAN AAAAAAAANYONE HELP PLEASE?!
I'm driving myself nuts with this phone today.
I've unlocked the bootloader.
The phone is running "Android 11 Doke OS 2.1"
When I try to boot into fastboot now, the phone says:
"ORANGE STATE
Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted.
Your device will boot in 10 sec"
Then it reboots.
How can I install a custom rom such as ArrowOS, or CrDroid on the device, and then root it? I figured using a custom rom would make finding the boot.img easier than trying to hunt out the boot.img from this "Android 11 Doke OS 2.1" OS.
I also am going to guess I need a custom recovery like TWRP now, as I can't seem to get it to boot into fastboot.... Pleaaaaaaase can anyone help me?! I'm going mad here!
Thank you forever!

I'm using Oscal c20 pro still struggling on how to unlock the bootloader, how do you unlock yours? Please
Greetings from Romania I want a Google Pixel Experience kernel suit, they even have an original Moto G60 hanoi xt2135-2 rom, which is NOT SECURED, from any point of view, so no matter what configuration mistakes I could also do it if I flash software signed with twrp suit for example, unsigned with the original signature from Moto G60 Hanoi XT2135-2, in case I want to lock the bootloader again so it doesn't stay permanently locked, as I did at the moment , but not because I didn't know what was going to happen, but simply because I forgot and rushed to reflash the original OS software with twrp recovery which is not recognized with the original signature It just opens with the following error UNKNOWN OPERATING SYSTEM because I had previously installed twrp recovery, which is not signed with their original signature and has been permanently or temporarily blocked, I still don't know for sure, in the bootloader, if I restart it, it restarts r-one with the following error UNKNOWN OPERATING SYSTEM can only enter the bootloader but cannot reflash the software because it is blocked permanently or temporarily I still don't know in the bootloader I want help with good news to solve this situation 🤝🏻 Thank you Beautiful and from all the soul

Tankyou for you're suport
I'm new to forums, I apologize if this is all wrong and such. I was wondering if there is a way I can root a MetroPCS TCL IonX (T430W) running android 12 with magisk. I can't find anything for the IonX, it's all other variants of "Ion." I'm quite familiar with rooting and such, I'm just looking for the files, twrp or such. If you know where I can get them, please lemme know.
I'm sorry if this is in the wrong spot. I didn't see anything for TCL devices, I've never used forums before.
Hi! I don't see your particular device, but here (link below this paragraph) is where you can find all TCL devices we do have sections for. I am not knowledgeable about TCL, otherwise I'd help you myself, and these days on my Pixel, I don't even use TWRP to root - just Magisk, but I know this varies depending on the device and the files that are available. Hopefully, someone in one of the other TCL device sections can help you.

I have the T430W as well and after a month of trial and error I was able to get it rooted with magisk. I'll give you the quick summary of how I did it right now and once I get home from work I will try to get a more complete step by step guide for you.
1. Download and setup mtkclient by bkerler on github.
2. Enable usb debugging and oem unlock in developer options
3. Power off device
4. Open a terminal and mtk meta --metamode FASTBOOT
5. Plug phone up to computer. You should see the TCL logo and then black screen with fastboot mode in lower left corner.
6. fastboot flashing unlock and confirm on device with volume keys(WARNING this will erase your userdata)
7. Install LineageOS pre rooted GSI using DSU sideloader from github.
8. Either use a partition backup or adb shell then dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img
9. Reboot to return to original system.
10. Patch boot image with magisk manager make sure the disable vbmeta option is selected.
11. Repeat steps 3 & 4
12. fastbooot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img {flash blank vbmeta image(I used the one from the google source page for DSU)}
13. fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched_img
14. Reboot and enjoy your rooted Ion X.
Or if you would like I can upload either the stock boot image or magisk patched image as long as you have done the UG67 OTA update.
We have no DA or AUTH files for SP Flash Tool and none of the current bypass methods work on our chipset, so whatever you do make sure you do not flash mmcblk0boot0 or mmcblk0boot1 as this will render your device hard bricked. The kernel source is available on sourceforge, I have gotten it to compile with no errors but haven't had a chance to test it yet. I'm working on getting TWRP or OFRP for our device compiled but haven't gotten very far. So far I haven't had any issues being rooted on the stock rom. I'm really glad that you posted this because I have been meaning to type up a guide as I believe being able to root your phone should be an option for everyone, but you posting this gave me the kick in the rear to actually do it.
Here is the stock boot and magisk patched boot image plus the blank vbmeta image
