Are you sure you actually read anything? It is plastered all over xda. Just use the toolkit and see what it says

Why do you want to get to fastboot? If you really need to, install TWRP, unlock the bootloader, and use the ZIP that storming made (somewhere on Reinstall TWRP and Root after update to Nougat).
That's the way to get fastboot.

thank you, but how do i get the original recovery file? i didnt find it.
with my pixel and oneplus 3t i was able to flash stock rom and this reseted recovery, too.
I already flashed the actual stock rom with twrp (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/rom-eu-lg-h870-10n-rom-t3637828), but this zip was made to keep twrp. Now i´m wondering how to flash a full stock rom, inkl. recovery or just flash recovery....

Hey guys,
i still didn´t get it to work. Any Tipps for a LG Noob, how to get back to stock recovery?
plz give me a hint or throw a link in at me, If i´m missing something obvious :silly:
Can't you just install the official LG suite software on a desktop or laptop and then use that? It will probably detect the missing or "damaged" recovery and then automatically "repair".

Thank you. This did the Job.
Now I'm on stock rom with stock recovery, but the "fastboot oem lock" leads to a "corrupt device" that will not boot anymore. Can't the H870 (europe) be relocked, once it was unlocked via unlock.bin?
Isn't that the exact same procedure but then simply choosing "lock"?

i thought it was, but as a mentioned, it leads to a startscreen, that says: your device is corrupt and will not boot. after flashing the unlock bin it boots again

Is there a "lock.bin" file that can be fetched from the LG site maybe?
From the LG developer site:
4. Once unlocked, it cannot be undone.
There is no turning back once you have unlocked the bootloader. You will not be able to revert your phone to locked status.

I'm interested in buying a LG G6. Can you please explain a little bit more what you did to re-lock? Where did you get the kdz image (which region) and what steps did you do? I'm completely new to LG devices.

Downgrading from B35

Hi all,
I have A2007U running B35 all stock and locked bootloader.
I'm having problems with MiFlash so I'm trying to find another solution.

You can downgrade without a PC. you need to find the official B32 update package, unzip it (there should be an update.zip inside the zip that you downloaded), and put that update.zip on the SD card. Then go to Settings, Updates, and install the B32. It will downgrade the system no problem.
Any reason to roll back from the 35?

At fastboot, you need run a command "fastboot oem unlock", then you should be able to access twrp.
Your twrp is probably already flashed, just can not be access as you have not run the command "fastboot oem unlock".

I want to go back to stock, but how can i flash the latest stock rom?

Following this post, you will be able to go back to stock B32, not the latest B35, but almost.

But the b35 is impossible to get back?
The edl method allow you to get back to B32 with everything from stock, such as gpt, recovery, modem, boot, system.
I have not tried to update from B32 to B35, but you may able to do it by OTA update.
There are other ways to flash it to B35, but you may need custom recovery such as twrp.

Ota is dead, ZTE shutted It down
I used the twrp b35 but it doesn't have fastboot working, so I can't relock bootloader to sell the phone
I think it is OK to get back to B32 and relock the bootloader for selling the phone.
you do not really need B35.

I wanted to get it to the lastest update because the guy I was selling it to had the phone and would know that I modded it
Lol. I spent all weekend trying to figure out how to get back to B35 locked. Decided that maybe I was happy with the unofficial Oreo builds after all.
Since there are no more otas, flashing stock and locking the bl is only hurting the new owner who will have to go through all that again if they want updates.
Pretty sure there is a modded b35 stack around here somewhere... maybe nFound's thread.
I bet the b32 stack also works just fine on b35 but no promises.
tried flash stock recovery from twrp. not yet found way to get fastboot back from twrp.
Wait, zte is back now, so ota maybe available soon.

Try using B03 from ztedevices.com it's for the G variation, but if you install B20 OR B35 afterwards you will get all your functions back, I was stuck with no phone functions with my U model on stock B01 ROM. Rather than use edl or tulip tool or Axon 7 toolkit just flash B03 in standard recovery mode then flash B20 both from SD Card, trust me it works for the U even though B03 is intended for the G, my U on the B01 ROM was identifing itself as a G and I had no phone functions at all, I used this method as I don't have access to a PC just Mac so I had to rely on SD Card updates to get it going, try this method. I had B35 when I bought it, I must admit it's a good build especially with the Hiys call blocker as a system app. Use SD Card upgrades and then you can sell it and upgrade to the Axon 10 pro

How to Root A2017G oreo?

Hi
How can i Root the A2017G oreo a2017gv1.3.0b02 ?
when i install TWRP the phone will formatted?
i have unlock the bootloader.
Just install Magisk 16.7 (even though I hate suggesting to use that software). Do not try to use 17.x or higher until you have followed the steps in this topic:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/kernel-magisk-17-stock-roms-t3856809
Unfortunately, the 2 other major root solutions out there, SuperSU and Phh's Superuser, don't appear to work with stock Oreo on the Axon 7. I tried both and got bootloops.
Edit: Sorry about that link, it seems to require B20 Oreo, which is for the A2017U. But you have B02 Oreo for the A2017G. The solution in that thread may or may not work for you, I would post there first to ask. Or just try it and see.

that is not too right... If you have a G, you need to roll back to Marshmallow (B10 or B11) and install a SIGNED TWRP (of which there's only one, Tenfar's). [DO NOT BACKUP ANYTHING IN THIS TWRP]
Then from there install the aboot and fbop files present in Controllerboy's unlock guide to get fastboot (via adb commands). then enter fastboot and issue the unlock command
After that, install any other TWRP, the official one from twrp.me might be better for stock ROMs
Based on previous conversation, Tenfar's TWRP is recommended. Can somebody provide me with the TWRP? Cannot find it anywhere due to dead link.
