I been trying to flash twrp in fastboot. But every time I run the command to flash twrp it does nothing. I'm running marshmallow flashing twrp should work. I do have my bootloader unlocked.

What commands are you using?

I seem to recall having an issue where the fastboot command would not work. I updated my sdk and it worked.
Are you using a Windows machine or Linux. I had and issue with fastboot on Ubuntu, and eventually found a fix.
Also make sure your computer is seeing your phone in bootloader mode type... fastboot devices.

I would try the repair function. If you uninstall the Moto program, the drivers stay installed. So you would have to manually remove the drivers.......I would just try the repair function. Then make sure you have oem unlocking and usb debugging turned on in the dev options. Then try the
Code:
adb devices
command. It should return your device id.

Please delete this thread.
thats because you should be using fastboot
adb doesnt work in fastboot mode
ex: fastboot devices
or fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
etc

OK, good point. But it used to work before.
Anyway, ADB is not working in stock recovery also. I found out while trying to sideload an OTA.

adb works only in when its turned on or in sideload mode afaik, if not dis- and reconnect the phone to the pc via usb.

Hey, trying to flash my Nexus 6P with Android 7, buy when I try to unlock with fastboot flashing unlock, I just get a list of command options. I've updated Android Studio and the SDK, but nothing changes. What can I do?
Try Nexus Root Toolkit... But why don' you just sideload the OTA with ADB?

How do you get adb to recognize the phone? Minimal sdk can't find the phone

Reinstall all drivers with the toolkit. And delete all previous SDK and driver installs
Can the toolkit root the new NRD90M?

adb doesn't see the phone. Is there toolkit for Linux?
Do you have USB debugging enabled in developer options?
And oem unlock enabled?

Yes. fast boot itself works and fastboot devices returns a listing for my phone. As I said in my first post, it is fastboot flashing unlock that returns the command options.

i faced the same problem. i used method 2 as described in the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t3252931
For what it's worth, i flashed the OTA image yesterday. When booted, adb did recognize the phone. But when in recovery, adb did not see it. At that point, i just unplugged the phone from the PC and plugged it back in. The PC proceeded to install the drivers again. After that, adb worked.

You don't need any toolkit. Your problem is an outdated SDK.

Are you sure? Is your platform-tools package up to date? The only reason fastboot throws a list of possible commands is when it doesn't recognize the command you're trying to issue. The only reason it wouldn't recognise the command you're trying to issue would be if it was out of date.

Yes, I'm sure. I deleted the Android Studio and separate android-sdk folders and re-downloaded both from scratch. I've sorted it, I did it on my work Win10 laptop. But adb won't work period (problems conecting to the daemon) and fastboot works, but doesn't recognise flashing unlock. On a side note, i realised I hadn't allowed unlock from developer settings, but even after fastboot flashing unlock still didn't work. *shrugs*

So if you type in adb in command prompt does it tell you which version of adb you have installed? It sounds like you have some issues with you're install of SDK tools. Is java up to date.

Guaranteed, this is your problem.
My Nexus 6P is seemingly bootlooping.
I can boot into the bootloader menu but not into recovery. My bootloader is not unlocked so I cannot flash anything.
Issuing the command: "fastboot flashing unlock" does not work nor does "fastboot oem unlock". I cannot flash a custom recovery. Because my bootloader is locked.
Any help would be great.

You say that your bootloader was not unlocked, so I'm assuming you didn't have developer options turned on and USB debugging checked before fastboot flashing unlock?

Do you remember if you modded anything prior to bootloop? The reason you can't unlock bootloader is because USB debugging isn't on. What version of Android were you on when it happened? I believe you can still use google factory Image to restore your phone.

Since you don't have twrp you probably don't have a backup, which what I'm going to suggest will bring you back to stock and may lose everything. Though it's better than a bricked phone. Since I never did the flash-all.bat you may lose your stuff on internal SD. In this link, download the correct image your phone was on (under angler) and if using windows use the flash-all.bat in fastboot. If you're phone isn't 32 GB, extract all from zip and flash everything except user data. Forgive me for assuming you may be new. https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Tried that. Continue to get the "Remote: (device is locked)" error every time it tries to flash a new image.
I'm not worried about losing any data on the phone. everything is backed up in the cloud.

Do you get the error on all that you try to flash? Maybe just try the recovery img only to see if you can at least get that. If that works you should be able to sideload ota through recovery. With having a locked bootloader you might be at a loss. But on the flip side, having everything locked and not rooted you should be ok for warranty replacement.

Fastboot is useless since your bootloader is locked. Try to ADB sideload the latest OTA image from Google and see if it will boot.

Tried running through those steps. I can't even get a temporary boot of TWRP or stock recovery continues to bootloop even though WugFresh claims it was successful. Tried doing it manually via Fastboot and continue to get the error in flashing.
I just received my replacement phone. So I might just call it a day on this one. :crying:

Good to hear about replacement! There are a few people in these forums that have a brick and can't get out of it. I thought you couldn't Hard brick these phones unless that was your goal. And most of these users who have bricks don't even know what causes it. Just a random reboot then loops. Kinda scary.

If the device can be seen by a computer, reflash the factory image. If not, no idea.
Dear friend if you have no OS installed and the Bootloader blocked the only thing you can try is using an OTG cable and a flash memory to download the latest version of the factory image but OTA and copy it to the flash memory and try to flash it from the stock recovery

Can you boot to bootloader? (With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power)
Then run
Code:
fastboot devices
If you see your mobile then you should be able to flash the factory ROM.

No worries. Normally I wouldn't dig into it... but who knows, next time could be me in the same spot.
If you can boot using twrp then you can get adb shell with root, right?
Code:
adb shell getprop | grep -i unlock
I'm getting
[ro.oem_unlock_supported]: [1]
[sys.oem_unlock_allowed]: [1]

I'm wondering if you set those props to 1 maybe you'll be able to flash images again.
Code:
adb -d shell setprop ro.oem_unlock_supported 1

...
Spending way more time than I should lol...

Hi
I have been unable to find a TWRP build for my Android device (a Lenovo TB-X306F) anywhere online. I'd like to get into custom romming, which is pretty much impossible without TWRP. Does anyone know if there's a stable, reliable build of TWRP that has been tested to work with this device that carries the smallest risk of bricking my hardware or getting caught in a boot loop, and will allow me to interface with TWRP via ADB shell?
Thanks in advance!

yeah it was very easy -- download the current firmware for your tablet, extract the boot.img
install the magisk app, then run it..
copy the boot.img to the tablet, tell the app to patch it, download the patch BACK to your pc..
then put the device into fastboot, and run
fastboot flash boot boot_patched.img
BTW, I could not find a TWRP that worked with our device.. it was not necessary anyway.. flashing the boot partition was enough

Ok a bit more information for what I tried like 3 months ago
- I downloaded adb and fastboot
-adb was working fastboot was not
-i read about mtk drivers and that they are the problem I did download them but still my tablet doesn't show up in the pc (fastboot devices)
I can't get past that step
when you say that fastboot is not running, why is that?
what error do you get? you know you need to put the tablet into fastboot mode before fastboot will be useful,, right?
