Trying to flash an OTA update bricks my phone, it just loops and boots into recovery mode, can't unlock the bootloader because it's not supported, I get in cmd "oem unlock is not allowed"
I will try the dm-veriry removal method tonight and see if it works
Can anyone tell me how to unbrick the phone, when I flash nougat (it fails which is normal) and oreo I get "error!" And my phones just a pointless paperweight until I can find an unbrick method
I can still boot into fastboot BTW
And also my bootloader is still on 7.1.2

Hi everybody
My Zenfone Selfie after a normal update (never modified) is in bootloop.
So I installed adb and fastboot and I flashed the twrp.
Then I tried in every way to flash a rom. I've tried both with official firmware and with various versions of cyanogenmod. Through fastboot and via adb sideload.
Even if seems to work, when I reboot I get the bootloop problem again.
As far as I can understand the problem it’s that I have the bootloader still locked. The official apk solution I guees it’s not applicable in my case. By fastboot oem unlock i get an error message (probably why i can not enable usb debug).
Do you know of other ways to unlock the bootloader or in general to flick my phone?
Thanks to everyone for the help
Here is a link for selfie's boot, recovery and system images for fastboot flashing

You can't unlocked bootloader on fastboot. I hope you can restore your device.

Adb cannot see muly phone i cant boot into twrp and i only have access yo fastboot mode as erecovery didnt work with my un offical nrd90m update.
Hi this is my 1st post so sorry if it been asked before. In have my P10 plus running b150 firmware.. I had unlocked the boot loader with adb and went to install a new firmware but decided against it. But now whenever I reboot or power off my phone when it reboots I get the msg saying the phone isn't secure and can't be trusted. I've tried the fastboot OEM relock plus code in adb but all I get is an error saying root is at risk.
Any advice appreciated.
BTW I don't want to flash an OEM firmware if possible.
I came back from LOS 16.0. Flashed A2017G_B10_NOUGAT_FULL_EDL in EDL but there's a warning that my bootloader is locked. I wanted to relock it but the warning prevents me from entering bootloader or fastboot (or maybe they are not even present....). Next I flashed A2017U_FASTBOOT_UNLOCK_EDL in MiFlash but it did not do anything. It flashed OK but I still cannot access fastboot. Should I flash some marshmallow rom? Thanks in advance.
I have the same problem. Cannot enter fastboot mode on Nougat ROM.
Ok I found the way usin Axon 7 Toolkit
1. Set the Android version to 7 using option 13
2. Perform unlock bootloader
Following instruction Axon & Tookit gives you EDL image of the proper fastboot partition giving the possibility to enter fastboot mode
then fasboot oem lock
I wanted to say thanks that works, but apparently my phone is bricked now - it hangs on green ZTE logo. PC recognizes it as DFU. Cannot enter EDL either. I guess I look for some guide how to recover from this situation
Managed to fix that. Somehow I was able to enter fastboot. It said my bootloader was locked so i flashed TWRP and from TWRP using ADB installed stock Nougat rom

If you was able flash twrp mens your boolaeder was unlocked?
No there's a TWRP that works on locked bootloader.

Seems that TWRP was inatlled before the bootloder was locked again.
I updated to Pie today using OTA. This resulted in a bootloop. Since my bootloader was already unlocked, I booted TWRP (not flashed) and swapped slots. This resulted in booting to the recovery "no command" prompt instead. So I downloaded the only ROM Xiaomi has on their site - 8.1 - and flashed this with the "flash_all_except_storage" script. Still bootloops, only now the bootloader is relocked.
So, anyone know how to unlock the bootloader on a non-booting Android One device? Is there an EDL mode on these?

Seriously? No one reads thread online?! I quote to NEVER, EVER, FLASH OREO/NOUGAT ROMS AFTER UPDATING TO PIE!!!
I downloaded the latest OFFICIAL ROM when it was already bootlooping.... Seriously? I'm supposed to go searching online for 3rd party information rather than the official?
Now how about people with useful information instead of arrogance?
If I'm not wrong you just need to boot into bootloader and fastboot oem unlock. With unlocked bootloader, go fastboot mode and flash official stock pie fastboot rom
