hi. i was running android 9 rooted and i decided to upgrade to android 10. i also included twrp in the installation using magisk and patching the AP file.
The first boot was fine. i had to reboot the phone and now if i start with root, i can't unlock the screen, i put the pin,it gives black screen and then pin request again. i rebooted with no root (same problem). i wiped the cache and now i can use phone if i start without root. i tried to remove pin and fingerprint, but anyway if i start with root i cannot use phone, it goes in bootloop after the unlock screen.
Any suggestion?
thanks

Hello
I had my phone on the VNS-L31C113B132 firmware, unlocked, rooted.
Then I got a message about a new update (VNS-L31C113B141), so naturally, I downloaded the update.app and tried to flash it through twrp with no success, so I used the up+down+power method, it worked, and all was well, except i lost root, lost twrp, and the bootloader seemed to be locked again. No data or apps were deleted though. Then I updated to B150 same method.
any idea why root and recovery are gone? and how can I check if my bootloader indeed is relocked?
That is a completely regular behavior. You can check by booting to bootloader (holding up and power button when the phone is turned off), it will show you a white screen with the Android robot and info on bootloader and FRP status. To get everything back, just unlock the BL again, flash TWRP again and root again, no harm will be done, and your root software (e.g. Xposed) will start working again (although for xposed, you'll have only the client, the framework has to be flashed via TWRP once again).

unlocking again may result in factory reset.... or is there another method that keeps everything?

Unfrtunately yes, the phone will be reset. All you can do is to back it up and then restore it. Next time you update firmware, update it with "update.zip" from TWRP, this way, only recovery and root will be removed, but not the BL unlock.
look around, it is a workaround for skip factory reset in unlock/relock procedure.
Hi,
maybe anyone can help me getting out of the bootloop(LG G6 H870)? reason, why I'm stuck in bootloop: I installed magisk v13.0 (beta) and magisk manager 5.0.3 after unlocking my bootloader to gain root access. A new version came out and I decided to installed it because it switched magisk 13 from beta to stable. I opened magisk manager, updated the manager, downloaded magisk v13.2 and flashed it through recovery (twrp). But i wasn't able to get root access (rebooted a few times, but no difference). So my next plan was to uninstall magisk using the magisk-uninstaller.zip and flashed it using twrp. After this step, my phone rebooted over and over again. The only thing i can do is to get into the factory data reset screen. While booting , i connected my phone to my laptop, but obviously its not recognized so I can't execute any adb commands.
Any suggestions how to access recovery mode or how i can leave the bootloop?
Thanks
edit:
I managed to solve my issue in following way:
1. booted into download mode like Killua96 suggested while connected to my computer
2. opened lgup on and flashed the factory image
3. rebooted into bootloader and flashed twrp image
4. copied my backup (which i made with twrp) into the BACKUP folder
5. restored my backup with twrp
6. after reboot I wasn't able to unlock my phone, because my correct unlock pattern wasn't accepted
7. booted again into twrp, navigated into /data/system and deleted locksettings.db-wall, locksettings.db-shm and locksettings.db
8. rebooted one more time and everything was fine again!

Try to connect it to the pc while bootlooping, then turn it off by keeping pressed power and vol- when the display turns off quickly keep pressed vol+ and it should boot in download mode... Good luck

Ok, I'm able to access the download mode now. I only have access to a laptop running Linux right now, when I'm back home, I try to flash the stock ROM using the official LG Tools! Thanks for your help!
All,
I had flashed Elite ROM v4 and it was successful except messing up on MagiskSu where one application still detected the phone is rooted. To solve the problem, decided to flash it again without realizing OEM lock is off - forgotten to activate before start flash. Now, after wipe everything using TWRP,reboot to continue the flashing procedure, the phone is unable to boot into TWRP recovery and only able to boot to stock recovery and fastboot. Unfortunately the FRP is lock and I could not not flash TWRP again. Any advice?
Using the miflash tool I flashed stock firmware (some version of android 8) after previously having a custom ROM installed. Everything worked fine until I rebooted after updating to the latest version using OTA.
My phone never got past the android one screen where it would freeze part way through, and after removing my sim card I could get to the pin unlock screen before the lock screen but after inputting the correct pin it would reboot and ask me for it again and again. I can get into fastboot fine but since usb debugging wasn't enabled and my bootloader is locked I can't reflash.
Booting into recovery also only brings me to a screen where the android mascot has a red triangle with an exclamation mark and a message saying "No command", so I can't factory reset.
Is there anything I can do to unlock the bootloader in this state or factory reset? (all flash tools and fastbooting into TWRP require the bootloader to be unlocked which in turn requires usb debugging to be activated)
Thanks for your time.
Update: I messed around with stuff on the cli based tissot tool and used option 2 to boot me into TWRP. It didn't do that but brought me into android where a system process kept repeatedly closing until a random factory reset happened.
I then got into normal android for a bit before I had to reboot (did remember to unlock the bootloader this time). I can now install twrp fine but every time I install the stock rom using miflash or try to install resurrection remix through twrp I get the same bootloop issue.
For some reason also my internal storage is completely empty no matter what i do so i need to sideload roms via sd card. And sometimes twrp gives me the error "failed to mount /system"
Trying the latest version of LineageOS next.
Update 2: if you have the same issue I had, the only working fix I've found is this restore point for twrp. Have not tried to update yet in case it breaks again but will make a final update with how that goes.

I just installed elite rom by hassan mirza yesterday but at the night the Pin lock just got bugged, Any pin is not working, I opened TWRP so i can delte lock but it was unable to mount/write on internal storage, I decided to flash orange fox using twrp but when i rebooted into recovery after flashing it did not work, It got into a boot loop, the phone was still able to turn on but the pin was bugged it was showing incorrect, Soo i deciced to flash a new twrp using fastboot but i got an error REMOTE COMMAND NOT ALLOWED, which was most probably due to locked frp, Bootloader is unlocked but frp locked, i also tried to flash stock recovery but same errror, everything is F****ed up, I decided to install stock usign dload but was unable to find every link is broken, I fount one which was for Huawei p8 lite which is quite same but i was unable to flash using d load it says software not installed, i tried everything, I guess if I unlock frp everything can be fixed, is there any way to remove it, I do have the accesss to google accounts, Secondly another method would be resetting so pin gets removed but when there is no recovery and no access to phone setting, i tried google ADM but it simple tries to boot into recovery, the third can be removing pin if there is any way in fastboot mode, IDK what to do, I can't get a new phone. Want this back ,Maybe there is some PIN for this elite rom which can be used when it is bugged
