Hey,
apparently I'm not the only one with this issue,
If you bought European 32 gb version just like me (Czech Republic and Germany seems to have this problem) you are not able to access bootloader. Adb commands won't work, not ever buttons combinations.
Is there any fix to that yet?
Before you ask, yes i have proper USB drivers, PTP, OEM and USB debugging is on as well.

this is sad, I wanted to buy it (H960A) next week
As far as I understand, everybody has this issue.
Only TMobile varient H901 has an unlockable bootloader and can access it.

Do you think that this will change? Or it's like this forever after?... :/
I have no idea. There's a bounty for root access for att and verizon variants. Hopefully this will apply for our device as well.
Don't understand why LG is so applish (yes I said it, LG behave like Apple and it's close garden philosophy)
XDA don't take kindly to such manufacturers
Even Samsung almost always lets us choose how to use OUR devises
I doubt this will change when the marshmallow update comes in
No update yet?
Nope, still the same :/ - it sucks a lot. :/
A very good device but a dead silent thread Such a shame...
Any news ?
Any updates on the 960 boot loader?

thats sad, Phone is now for sale. I have no use for a unrooted android device.
Hope something will happen soon
ADB commands are working fine on my v10 H960 64gb, but when typed "adb reboot bootloader" it just rebooted the device as normal reboot.
H960A , H960ATR, H960TR NO FASTBOOT MODE Adb commands won't work
I regret that i sold my note 5 and bought v10 europe , no root , no development

I have LG-H960a too (Czech, 32GB version of LG V10).
Im stucked as you guys.
Any (hold power+up/down) button mode will NOT work here. But what works is:
reboot with adb to recovery, hold DOWN button --> green android with red [!]
power off, hold UP button, plug in cable (autopower on, no need to press power button) --> download mode / firmware updates
At both cases NONE fastboot command will work (or my drivers are really mes up). I still cant unlock OEM, flash recovery or get root.
Maybe this will help, maybe not.
What about any king of exploit method to get root? Keep me posted. Thanks
EDIT: Also works to turn off, hold POWER and DOWN until LG logo shows up, then release POWER and push POWER again. This will get me into factory recovery screen (white, selectable with up/down). Fastboot dont work there either (for me).

Hello, i bough also 960a CZ version. no new about how to get root? and what about general performance? i would like to root only to purse slow snapdragon 808. tnx
Hi. Im writing right now from LG V10 CZ rooted phone. So yeah, there is the way how to root.
Just look on correct topic. gl
Turned on Dev Mode, OEM Unlocking and Debug Mode
Adb devices works
adb reboot bootloader boots into the phone; not the boot loader
For the life of my I've tried to boot into bootloader directly and can't get it -- So can't run any fastboot commands to see if it is locked or not.
Anyone know how to get into the bootloader? Holding Power and Volume Down and then releasing power at the LG screen doesnt work. Holding them down without letting go just keeps rebooting the phone. Hold Volume UP, Volume Down and Power gets me IMEI information.
Maybe try holding power, up and down? maybe see if adb connects on the imei info and see if you can run the reboot command from there?

adb reboot recovery gets me into recovery
adb reboot download gets me into download
fastboot from IMEI Page doesnt work
If I hold power and volume down, wait for LG logo, let go of power real quick (while still holding volume down) and press power again it gets me to "factory data reset"; not typical bootloader menu.
Still trying...
If ADB reboot fastboot yeilded nothing then it's locked down
I'm going to assume no oem unlock?
May still be too soon if it's unlocked.

? Why would it be too soon? ADB flash commands either work or they don't.
I understand someone has to test, just to make sure -- but you should assume all "major carriers"-branded LG V30 will be locked down. Even T-mobile has succumbed. With the T-mobile LG G6 earlier this year, you could unlock the bootloader, but T-mobile/LG removed all other flash commands. Like having the keys to the car, but there's no car.
Go read this if you haven't. It explains how having ONLY bootloader unlock is useless.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/unlock-bootloader-root-t3665927/page12
As a result, (probably) only the U.S. and European carrier unlocked versions of LG V30 will have real bootloader unlock, and be added to LG's bootloader unlock list for developers -- just like the LG G6. I would be glad to be wrong about this.
Of course, the wild card would be exploits devs may find... But with official carrier unlocked versions available, devs don't need to look for exploits.

Honestly, carrier unlocked phones are almost just as unfair to consumers as locked bootloaders in the first place. For those of us who can't afford paying for an unlocked phone all at once, it locks us in a position where we have to bow down to the carrier or stick to a 4 year old phone. I'm forever grateful to the devs who are in similar situations and try to find exploits on carrier phones, but I'm so disappointed that by having a carrier unlocked phone, it leaves many of us in an even worse situation. Just hoping for a miracle.

Let's just say that a kernel and userland exploit comes quickly and allows root access.
Could we dd a TWRP build to the recovery partition? Does the phone need signed firmware or is it simply a crippled fastboot?

You need a signed firmware, so no TWRP.

My phone realme 1 is not going into fastboot mode when the powerbutton and volume-down button are pressed together. Instead it is going into recovery mode. What should i do to get it to fastboot mode
It's vol up and power button

After unlocking bootloader, you can enter fastboot mode. Means if bootloader is locked then you can enter only recovery.
you can go to fastboot mode by pressing Vol Down and Power Button but it needs the bootloader unlocked. so, first unlock that

before unlocking the bootloader you need to enter into fast boot. I think you are new mmember.

Yes, after unlocking Bootloader or after applying in Deep Test apk you can enter FastBoot mode. Without unlocking bl there is no way to access fastboot mode. Only recovery is accessible.
By the way he is not new. He is developing ROMs for this device.

Well, Who tf tries to go to fastboot mode without unlocking bootloader in the first place?and I'm not a new member. I'm one of the lead developers of Realme mt6771 development team. You can go ahead and see at github.com/CPH1859 and github.com/RMX1831 . I'm saying the fact, if a person is trying to go to bootloader and he hasn't unlocked it, call him a new member. Its just Common sense. You can't open a door without unlocking it.

Sorry sorry! I read the sentence indirectly.
can we make stock rom?? If Fastboot is disabled by the manufacture and there is not old stock ROM to get fastboot option to unlock the bootloader??
Hello all,
I hope someone can help me with this headache.
I downloaded and tried to install the EU rom from here https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/download-link-for-curtana.56901/ on my Curtana using LRTWRP. However, I got an error during installation, I pushed reboot to recovery. Now the phone reboots so quickly that I cannot reach any fastboot or recovery mode. Has anyone had this problem before? any way to fix it?
Keep holding down power + vol down. That gets the phone into fastboot
do you see the redmi logo at all?

You probably flashed wrong zip file. Unfortunately your unit is hard bricked now and the only option left now is Service Center

Thanks for the reply. It is so annoying to have to send it back. Also the guarantee is void since I unlocked the bootloader, right?

Don't tell them that you unlocked BL and I think I read somewhere that unlocking BL in Xiaomi doesn't void warranty. Anyways they can fix the device through EDL flash
I wanted to install basic android 13 on my 10T but accidentally forgot to remove the old vbmeta and put in the new one so it was kinda a mix of lineage's vbmeta (i tried to go from lineage os to android) and android's system and boot image files. It was bootlooping, then i figured out how to go into bootloader and i flashed half of the files with OOS 12.1 fastboot rom, then i powered it off to try to go into fastbootd mode and it didn't turn on, i tried holding the power and volume buttons in every single way possible but nothing worked. Can someone help me with what i can do to at least turn it back on and go into bootloader? I'm really desperate at this point, im ready to clear every single bit of data just to restore the phone, if it is possible of course.

If you connect the phone to the computer, is it recognised in some way in the Device Manager (perhaps in EDL mode)?

nope, if it was i would've restored it already. Used to be recognized as a fastboot device when i could boot into bootloader but now it's just a permanently turned off brick.

When you can boot to fastboot/fastbootd than flash the stock rom to both slots with fbe and delete all.cow partition
Yeah uh well how can I get it to boot anywhere at all? It doesn't respond to any combination of power and volume buttons. I even calculated how many there are: 4×2=8 and none worked, computer as I said earlier doesn't see it as any device since it's turned off.

Also just as an addition to my previous messages a wanna mention that it was originally a Chinese Ace Pro model which was idk how remade to think that it is 10T which could lead to some issues with restoring it idk.
Unfortunately if it's completely dead you have only one option to contact oneplus directly
