Oh god don't panic. Do NOT lock the bootloader though!
When that screen shows up, hit the volume down button and select 'recovery', then hit power. It should boot up on the recovery. Three things might happen:
a) you will boot into TWRP, in which case the fastest way would be to install Lineage or a Lineage based rom. If this happens download a LOS-based ROM, and also the Universal Bootstack and A2017U modem, then put them on the phone, wipe system, data and cache, and install all 3
b) you will boot into the stock recovery. if this happens you'll need an SD card (4gb or more), you simply put an official A2017U update.zip there (tell me if this is your case and I'll see if i can find a link)
c) your phone will simply reboot, in which case you might need to use MiFlash

When I goto Apply Update from SD card it says "Sorry,you can't sdcard upgrade" im not sure if that normal
I GOT Option B btw and I do have a 4gb sdcard in currently

This is not good. It can't be dm-verity because the toolkit disables it when rooting. It has to be a problem with the new version of SuperSU. I'll downgrade it when I get the chance. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

2.79 always works, though it'd be best if you just added magisk 14

Ok I was lucky enough it get TWRP on it so what do I do now? I was able to flash it with miflash. I also cleared the entire phone so now it says no os are you sure you want to reboot? So how can i install the Operating system. Sorry for all the hassle this is my 2nd android device i'm used to apple and the easy jailbreaks and restores. Can I have the download links to the things I need to get cause I don't have a clue what to look for. I really shouldn't have done this for being such a noob. XD

@sonic1337 I downgraded the SuperSU version. The root option should work now without issues.

Thanks for downgrading it but my phone no long has an os on it so I cannot us the root anymore I need to know how to reinstall it. If you can help me with that I can try it again.

i don't get why you wiped the entire system clean but okay lol
get DrakenFX's TWRP-flashable stock system zips for the A2017U (be SURE they are for the A2017U).

Stuck in bootloop :(

I have unlocked bootloader, flash modified boot.img and recovery but when I boot the device I get 'Your device is corrupt and may not work properly' I then get stuck on the google boot screen. When I go into TWRP recovery it cannot mount anything so I cannot even perform a factory reset.
Please help
did you make a back up?
I didn't unfortunately, I can get into recovery and as long as I leave it as 'Read-Only' it seems to mount everything. I think I need to get a stock image.
Resolved - used a Toolkit to go completely back to stock, kind of scared to try again now.
Follow directions and that won't happen again. Make sure you are on the correct version MDB08K BEFORE you start (you have the OTA), format not wipe in TWRP and you won't get caught in the boot loop.
Failing to do those two things will put you in a boot loop.
What toolkit did you use because i myself have this issue with my nexus 6p

That warning is normal, and should be ignored if you want unlocked bootloader, custom ROMs, etc.
Here TWRP couldn't mount because you forgot to decrypt after flashing the modified boot.img.
If you have further issues, let me know.
A quick advise - Avoid toolkits. They are handy and easy, but if something goes wrong, it will be hard to track down the cause. On the contrary, doing thing manually, will not only make it easy, but will also help you learn more about your Android, and how it works.

Moto G4 recovery boot loop

I really need help here. New to rooting androids, will pay BTC for whoever can help me.
I started off fine, unlocked my bootloader, flashed to TWRP and installed supersu. * I WAS ABLE TO BOOT INTO SYSTEM HERE *
I then tried to flash some other stuff and got stuck where it would only boot to TWRP.
Downloaded the stock firmware to flash it (XT1625) and ran all the commands.
Still everytime I reboot it goes into recovery mode.
Any help?
I have tried to do factory reset directly from phone menu. This got me into TWRP. I have selected factory reset again.
Then I was able to boot only to TWRP, not system.
I have fixed it by booting into booloader (power + vol downs) and to select START. Then it started to system OK.
Not sure if this is your case.

Thank you very much for your tutorial which helped a lot.
What did you do to keep it from booting into recovery upon the next reboot? Mine goes into recovery-loop again once I do regular reboot from the system. There might be a software switch somewhere.
Thanks alot

Hello, I didn't observe such issue. Reboots from system are ok for me.
Download the correct firmware for your phone, if it is AMZ variant then download AMZ firmware.

Install of LOS, hit snag at TWRP update

Hey everyone,
I was running through the process of installing LOS 15.1 official when I hit a snag. I unlocked the bootloader, installed the Universal O bootloader, and was in the process of updating my version of TWRP. After flashing the image to recovery, I noticed that the TWRP version hadn't updated to the new one. I tried rebooting and that's when the problem started. Now, when I hit power + volume up, I get the ZTE powered by android screen, then 3 flashes of the notification light, and then it powers off. If I hit the power button, it sits on that same ZTE splash screen for what seems like indefinitely. I can't figure out how to get back into TWRP.
Any help is greatly appreciated
You can try flashing twrp via the twrp app
Hey!
Try to reboot the phone, press volume button to get the selection menu and reboot to fastboot.
connect the phone to your PC and using the a7toolkit flash the recovery again.
I think I did exactly the same thing as you and I fixed it this way

I assume you are coming from stock because you're unlocking your bootloader. I have a question about this process, did you install an older twrp first before flashing the O bootloader?

When I connect my phone to my computer, none of the toolkits I've tried can see it. It comes up as "Handset Diagnostic Interface (DFU) (Com4)". When I attempt to enter EDL mode with volume +, volume -, and power I don't get a flashing LED, just a solid one. As near as I can tell, this means my phone is hardbricked. I've got an EDL cable on order to hopefully fix this, but it's going to take almost a month to get here :crying:

Yes, the toolkit I used (Axon7RootToolV4) first unlocked the bootloader and then had a step to flash TWRP. When I was attempting to update TWRP, per the LOS instructions, it wasn't updating like it has in the past on other phones. I now know that restarting was the worst thing to do at that point. If the version of TWRP doesn't also match the bootstack and ROM, you're going to have a bad day if you restart.

[solved!] Used ODIN to install twrp but phone won't boot into recovery at all

Problem solved! i was installing the wrong version of twrp this is the correct version: https://eu.dl.twrp.me/j5xnlte/
I'm using SM-J510H
So I installed samsung drivers.
I even installed ADB and it's drivers (now i have samsung android in the device manager)
I downloaded TWRP for j53gxx:
https://eu.dl.twrp.me/j53gxx/
The .tar for odin (twrp-3.4.0-0-j53gxx.img.tar)
I did the OEM unlock and debugging thing I even got the notification that the computer was trying to access blah blah I did allow always.
Put the phone in download mode (Down + Home + Power)
Press up to enter download mode.
Connect the phone.
Untick reboot in odin.
Use the ap to select the correct file
Start success!
I try to reload into recovery tried so many different ways even the adb command to reboot into recovery. All I get is a little thing on the top left saying warranty bit recovery and then the screen is black.
It doesn't load into the default recovery it just stays black. I need to take the battery to rest...
I tried with adb but when i force it to load up into download mode (adb reboot bootloader)
adb doesn't recognize the phone anymore
I've now downloaded the android ask maybe that will solve things lol but does anyone have any advice please?
Should I consider installing a different recovery? like maybe CWM?
It has a costume rom on i guess it says "Hebrew by daniel mouyal for bt" in the about tab in the settings...
I tried using ADB to install but when it's in download mod it can't find the phone so when i enter the install command:"fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.x.x-xxx.img" it says: "waiting for device"
Well I've been installing the wrong version of twrp lol sry!
So just in case someone else hits the same problem it's not the twrp i posted before but this one:
https://eu.dl.twrp.me/j5xnlte/
When recovery is finished flashing in Odin, remove your battery to turn the device off.
Then put the battery back in and press vol+ and power button and home button at the same time.
Your device should then boot into twrp.
If you reboot before doing this the android operating system will ovewrite twrp with stock recovery and you will have to start the process again
Also you used the wrong twrp. J53gxx is 2015 model j500h and j5xnlte is j510fn not j510h. You must be careful or else you may seriously damage your device.
Use this twrp here for your device j510h

Thank you for the response!
I managed to figure out the issue it was the wrong twrp version.. I can't update the title though
That's no problem.
What I would suggest though is to post how you fixed your issue in case anyone has problems in the future they can be referred to your thread here

Can flash ROMs but can't boot them

I have a Huawei P10 Lite WAS-LX1. I had its bootloader unlocked in a phone repair shop (by shorting testpoint).
Now it always greets me with the message "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted".
I can load the boot into the bootloader and I can flash TWRP (I tried 3.4.0 and 3.3.1 from DarkJoker360 and also the one from Pretoriano80).
I am also able to flash system images, for example LineageOS from DarkJoker360.
At first that seemed to work to some extent: the new system kept crashing but at least it was booting.
I tried again and again and at some point I wiped everything but the sdcard using TWRP (that is, including the vendor partition). I suspect that's what I did wrong, because presently I can no longer boot into the ROM I am flashing. Instead, the phone waits for a few seconds, then vibrates once and restarts. The second time, it boots into "Huawei eRecovery" (where I can "Download latest version and recovery", "Wipe data/factory reset", "Reboot" or "Shutdown"). I am afraid of attempting to go back to the stock ROM as I wouldn't want the bootloader to become locked again.
Since I can still boot into both the bootloader and the recovery, I have hope I can recover. But I don't know how.
Does anyone understand what happened (and could explain)?
Also, does anyone know how I could boot into the ROM again?
Never mind. I went back to stock. Also, the bootloader became locked again during the process, so I will not try again.
