Try fastboot boot recovery.img
Also if you explain what happened or what you did, we can likely help.
My phone is OEM unlocked but not rooted (secure boot - enable as so said in fastboot mode).
Basically my phone cannot get to bootup. It doesn't show "Google" on startup or "X" animation. it crashed yesterday and got stuck on the "X" screen animation. So tried to factory wipe and adb wipe stuff. and things gotten worse. And i need my phone urgently to work because i'm waiting for calls for job interviews. so this is an urgent request!
i tried the LG Google Nexus 4 toolkit to flash Google Stock image but i'm getting the error
"failed <remote: flash write failure>"
i can boot to Custom/Stock Recovery without Permenently Flashing it with Clockworkmod or TWRP.
i tried "update from ADB" option in Android system recovery with "adb sideload image-occam-jdq39.zip" and it's able to send it to the device, but i'm getting "Installation aborted"
I'm out of options and i'm really lost....please help!!
Can you flash a recovery using? :
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery.img
If you can, then download a rom and flash it through the recovery that you installed.

Hi @all,
i just messed something up while testing several custom roms for my Zenfone5 so actually i cant write system neither by "sideload" nor by "fastboot flash system". i always get the a mistake like:
Code:
FAILED (remote: flash_cmds error!)
Actually i cant find a mistake by myself. Is it located in my PC or in my phone? i already searched for an errorlist for fastboot but that doesn't get me any results...
and as we say in germany:
Vielen Dank im Vorraus!

You're trying to flash a wrong file.
What's the command you're running?
I get the same error running this command:
fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
I cant erase this partition too. When i run this:
fastboot.exe erase recovery
I get this:
FAILED (remote: unable to format)

Please Help

I am Having The Same Error (FAILED (remote: flash_cmds error!)
What To do
Hi
I have Lenovo Tablet 2 Pro 1380L. I have simpley bricked it by flashing wrong firmware.
the problem is that when I boot it into FASTBOOT I cannot flash any IMG file and I get an error message that says "FAILED (remote command unknown)"
any idea why I'm getting such message ?
Hi All,
I just followed the instructions to root my h918 and then successfully updated to h91820h. I then used the TWRP app to flash twrp, and the Magisk app to update Magisk. After that I rebooted from the Magisk app, and now my phone is stuck in a bootloop. I cannot get into download mode, or recovery mode, or the system. I can get into fastboot mode by trying to go into download mode (holding the volume down and plugginto a USB port ot the laptop.
It seems that T-mobile removed any commands from fastboot that will help me. If I try to "fastboot reboot emergency", it just bootloops. If I try fastboot boot a twrp image, I get:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.4.0-1-h918.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.667s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.686s
The command "fastboot reboot bootloader" boots to fastboot. The bootloader is indeed unlocked, but it looks like I'm stuck, because the LG fastboot doesn't allow anything to fix the brick.
Code:
$ fastboot getvar unlocked
unlocked: yes
finished. total time: 0.020s
I'm not finding any hope or help on Google. It seems if I can't boot into twrp or download mode, I'm toast, and I can't figure out how to boot into anything but the bootloader.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to bring this phone back from the dead?
Thanks,
Rob

How are you trying to boot into download mode, are you trying to do it via fastboot or the hardware buttons?

im having the same problem, i dont have download more or twrp now, all i have is fastboot
i am going to assume going into download mode through fastboot is the only option for the two people posting for help here. from what i see from the posts, both hardware buttons sequence , or the plug in & down volume are the ONLY way to get to fast boot.
and fast boot is the only thing available on the phone.
i have labeled that a soft brick .
i asume one of the two help seekers have used the magisk 20.2 trap?
the release proved to be a problem , there is a tutorial on how to fix it.
i will go look for that and try to edit it into my responce later.
for now, are the two seekers already acomplished in this procedure?

ok i found a way to get into twrp (if ever installed)
1- turn off your phone
2- hold Volume Down + Power button until you see the LG logo
3- When you see the Logo release the power button while still holding the volume down and immediately after release press power button 3 times.
4- you will see a factory reset screen, press yes twice and it will go to twrp.
NOW WE NEED TO FIND A WAY TO FLASH A WORKING ROM THRU TWRP
