1) Is this on Windows, Linux, or Mac?
2) Were you able to unlock the bootloader on this same computer with no issues?
3) Are you getting this error after each fastboot command or just for "fastboot flash vendor"? If this is an error for any command, you should first update your platform-tools and fastboot.

You need to setup Android SDK tools on your PC. The generic process is by downloading, installing, and setting up the Android SDK. Once that is done, you should be good to go.

Guys, i need some help. i was messing with my nexus 7. then i tried to start fresh again by re-installing the stock 4.4.4. It's been a while since i flash Stock roms. So i find this tutorial, Erase boot, erase userdata etc. then when i tried to flash the bootloader, it always fail (unknown error). So im stuck with a OS-less Nexus 7 and no recovery. I can go to Fastboot. My device is recognizable through Fastboot devices. My old Rom was 4.4.4 stock. Please help me guys
Hello @vyrus027,
flash the files inside the factory image manually with these commands, it'll do the trick:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot format userdata
fastboot reboot

I need the flashable stock rom for 2.21.40.30. Can someone give me the link
All the ROM downloads can be found here: https://www.asus.com/support/Download/39/1/0/2/96nqlxHp1VKV4Rdz/32/
Firmware you want:
WW SKU (recommended)
TW SKU
CN SKU
CHT SKU
It's always recommended to after downloading the ZIP (on any stock version), reboot to droidboot then:
Guide for Zenfone 5 (T00J - A501CG, T00F - A500CG) only!
From inside the ZIP, extract the files fastboot.img (note that sometimes fastboot.img comes as droidboot.img), recovery.img and ifwi.zip
From ifwi.zip extract the files dnx_fwr_ctp_a500cg.bin and ifwi_ctp_a500cg.bin
Now, flash the files in the following order (via droidboot):
NOTE: The first line below, the fastboot.img I mention is of 2.21.40.30, use this fastboot image to flash a dnx and a ifwi. Other ones may not work! As you using this version, I'm not sending you it separately
Code:
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash dnx dnx_fwr_ctp_a500cg.bin
fastboot flash ifwi ifwi_ctp_a500cg.bin
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
It's also ULTRA recommended that you erase your data and cache:
Code:
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
Now flash the ROM via adb sideload on recovery
I recommend doing this before flashing any stock ROM when coming from a custom ROM.
Thanks
No I meant flashable from TWRP recovery. I learned that method by heart
In cmd typing "adb devices" shows empty list.
all drivers are already installed.
my phone is not shown in 'adb usb" also.
help me
hello
i update to nougat by using these commands
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
Fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash cache cache.img
and now instead of 64GB i see only 24..where is the rest?
i have root and twrp
thanks
Only those with the 32gb model need to flash user data
So just format your device and start over and you should have 64gb again.
ok so i just to skip the
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
but it stays as before 24.1GB
and what is - Fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
thank you
Note: You should never flash the userdata image. It doesn't take into consideration the storage capacity of the device and always allocates 32gb of storage. This is ok for the 32gb model, but for the 64gb and 128gb models you'll end up with much less storage capacity than you should have. If you wish to wipe your internal storage you'd use the following command instead:
Code:
fastboot format userdata
and i did fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
so to fix these i did the flash all.bat
just left to know what is the Fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
thanks
Format data
See guide here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
vendor formats data???
flashing the vendor will not cause a wipe of data.
firstly fastboot format userdata
then follow the guide by Heisenberg that is stickied.
fastboot flash bootloader C:\angler\images\bootloader-angler-angler-xx.xx.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio C:\angler\images\radio-angler-angler-xx.xx.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot C:\angler\images\boot.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash cache C:\angler\images\cache.img
fastboot flash recovery C:\angler\images\recovery.img
fastboot flash system C:\angler\images\system.img
fastboot flash vendor C:\angler\images\vendor.img
what does the vendor command?

It will flash the vendor.img
so if the device doesn't know that he is from huawei so these will remind him?

Follow at your own risk. Unlocked bootloader required.
This is how I was able to fix my softbrick after updating to -64 on my US XT1625 Amazon G4. Credit goes to Android Doctor (his YouTube tutorial), I changed his fastboot commands a little though to better match how a real Moto upgade would act (based off of the flashfile.xml file in the firmware zip).
From here download "XT1625_ATHENE_AMAZON_MPJ24.139-64_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip" (Here's a direct link if it works for you).
Extract that zip to a folder and copy ADB/fastboot files to that folder. Navigate or open a command prompt window to that directory. Boot your phone into fastboot (power it off and power it back on holding the volume down key or just run "adb reboot bootloader" if you're in recovery). Run the following commands from the command prompt window when your phone is in the bootloader and your command prompt window is navigated to the folder you extracted XT1625_ATHENE_AMAZON...zip to (you can also copy and paste them all into command prompt):
Running the below commands unmodified will wipe your data. You can try to run them without the "fastboot erase userdata" command at the bottom to possibly save your data (I can't guarantee anything).
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

Again, I give no guarantees on this and probably won't be checking back on this thread for replying or updating. Also note, Amazon ads will return to your lock screen.

Will this work on a locked bootloader?

I think not. Check out the youtube link I posted. The first thing you see in the video description is "UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER REQUIRED BEFORE DOING THIS THIS,UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER RQUIRED BEFORE DOING THIS, UNLCOKED BOOTLOADER REQUIRED BEFORE DOING THIS". I'll update the main post to reflect this.
I tried this with a unlocked bootloader and it worked.
I then locked the bootloader at the last step. However, the software status still shows "modified". How do I make it official?

I don't think there is a way of relock. Well, whatever you do and whatever you see on the screen or your PC says it has been locked again, the hardware counter tells the bootloader has been unlocked once. I read this from somewhere else on the internet. Correct me if it is wrong.

download firmware zip extract and flash above mentioned
I do not know whether my EFS and Persist are intact but I have backed them up. I had installed Pixel Experience 9.0 and then restored my TWRP backup to go to Stock Oreo, Build Number: OPSS28.85-13-5. This is my current Build, unlocked, rooted and has TWRP.
Can I follow this (https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/development/stock-firmware-npn25-137-67-5-fastboot-t3694738) guide to go back to Stock Nougat and then upgrade to the latest official update from moto?
I am asking to confirm as the Stock ROM given in the guide is Nougat ROM and I am on Oreo as mentioned above. I won't have any problems right? I do not want to lose VoLTE and my IMEI.
Any help will be appreciated.
Installed Oreo ROM via fastboot on my Moto G5 Plus [RETIN/Indian/ XT1686]
I am sharing my experience here so that it might help someone looking to flash stock ROM via fastboot. This is not meant to be a tutorial, but I will list out the steps I followed. I am not responsible if you mess up or hard/soft brick your device when following the steps I mentioned below. Always make a backup of your data/photos/videos/music and whatever else. Also make a backup with TWRP to be safe.
So instead of following the guide linked in the above post, I followed this one and successfully unrooted and returned to stock: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/moto-g5-plus-fastboot-flash-stock-oreo-t3848433
But I did not use the ROM linked by the OP in that thread. Instead I downloaded this one : https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
This RETIN ROM works for me because I have the Indian XT1686. I don't know if it matters but I had the same version (13-5) before, but I am not sure whether it was RETAIL or RETIN.
Anyways guys make sure you download the right ROM for your device if you are going to install via fastboot. You can download the right ROM for your device from here: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/
There are different folders for ROMs of different regions in the above link. So carefully download the one your device is compatible with.
Also, I installed fastboot drivers from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
Follow the instructions and also follow the video tutorials in the post to install fastboot drivers if your phone isn't detected in fastboot.
Then once I had downloaded the ROM and installed ADB, I extracted the ROM zip into a folder. Copy pasted ADB Files into the same folder (download ADB Files that worked for me _ attached to this post below).
FInally I put my phone in fastboot (turn off phone, then press volume down and power simultaneously till fastboot shows up). Connected the phone to my PC. Then opened CMD in the folder where I had extracted the ROM and copy pasted the ADB Files. To open cmd in a folder, just type cmd in the address bar of the folder and press enter.
And then I copy pasted the following code into the cmd window:
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
The above commands will run when pasted in cmd and your phone will be flashed with the ROM. It took a couple minutes to install and then I had to press enter while still in cmd to reboot the phone. Then the phone rebooted. Took a couple minutes more to boot, so stay patient. Then once the phone booted, I disconnected it from my PC and set the phone up as usual. DO NOT disconnect the phone when the fastboot commands are running and the ROM is being flashed. Note that the above fastboot commands will only flash the ROM. It will not lock the bootloader.
If you want to lock the bootloader then follow the instructions here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/moto-g5-plus-fastboot-flash-stock-oreo-t3848433
Note that I haven't locked my bootloader. So you will have to try and see for yourself whether it locks your bootloader.
Also once I booted up I got update notification and was able to update to the Feb 2019 OTA security update. So I can for sure say that updates work. VoLTE, calling, camera, almost everything I checked works.
Cheers. :victory:
