[T-Mobile LG G4] TechGuruGJ:
I need to lock my bootloader to do an exchange at T-Mobile. I have 20R stock flashed, but it still says custom bootloader upon boot, how do I relock it safely?

I read that "fastboot oem lock" will work, but will brick it if I don't do it perfectly. Any advice on what to do?
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
ive done it .. it works. it will build dalvik once it reboots.

I was able to Lock the bootloader.

1. I connected the phone to my PC

2. Powered on the Phone (it took a few tried of pulling the battery and powering on)

3. Check the box for OEM Unlock in Dev. Option

4. Use Minimal ADB and Fastboot and type in

Quote:

adb devicecs

- you should see the phone listed as one of the devices in the command line window

Quote:

adb reboot bootloader

- phone should reboot and you shouold see 3 lines of text on top

Quote:

fastboot oem lock

- nothing will happen on the phone, but on in the commandline it should say that it is done

Quote:

fastboot reboot

Phone reboots and the boot screen does not show the unlocked bootloader message anymore
[T-Mobile LG G4] Nadeox1:
I'm terribly sorry if bumping is not ok.

Thought it wasn't worth making a new thread, since my post is about the one above.

Has anybody actually tried these steps above? (Since every other thread mentioning this says it's a one-way only thing..)

Does locking the bootloader means also loosing the custom recovery? (I'd expect that, but asking to be sure)

Does it return the phone to it's original state? (ie. before one unlocked the bootloader, or there are some differences?)

Does it also means I would be able to get official OTA updates and so on? (since with a custom recovery, that's not possible)

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile LG G4] TechGuruGJ:
Yes, it does work. I did it, worked perfectly. Yes it does return your device to it's original state. Just make sure the stock ROM is flashed and all should be well. I didn't try, but I see no reason why it wouldn't let you get OTA updates from T-Mobile. Let me know if you need help.
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
ive said ive done it. on the above instructions you dont beleive.??

i think you loose the twrp phone doesnt show unlocked bootloader message did not check recovery but it must revert t stock one.. not sure about OTA since am not in tmobile network.

you dont need OTA. you can always download KDZ and flash it with LGUP.

and stay uptodate.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Nadeox1:
Thanks both for replying.

And no [MENTION=5308112]raptorddd[/MENTION] , I did not mean that.

Your post is the only mentioning that locking the bootloader is possible, while all the other similar threads have ony people saying otherwise / it's not possible. I guess a slightly doubt is legit to have, don't take it wrongly :)
[T-Mobile LG G4] WARMANH811:
I have follow this instructions and now it giving me and error. Any fix??
[T-Mobile LG G4] TechGuruGJ:

[T-Mobile LG G4] WARMANH811:
Secure booting Error!

Error code: 1003

MODIFIED ! !
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
are you sure you have h811.? i did not get that error ive tried this twice..

i remeber getting an security boot error on LG G2 i fix by flashing firmware .. so maybe KDZ could help..

if not am not sure then search for that error and find out how to fix.
[T-Mobile LG G4] joecandle:
My H811 T-mobile phone needs service. It has original 20v software version. It is unlocked with TWRP and rooted. Can I use this method? Do I first have to downgrade software to some other version? Will this method also take out TWRP and root or do I still have to take them out before doing this? How? Please help.
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
no need to downgrade. to remove root and any trace if phone works. is to use KDZ then once it boots into system do the lock procedure. so it locks and the small white letter are removed. this way its like stock rom and recovery and the above commmands will make bootloader locked. and sent to repair. if bootloops try the freezing method.
[T-Mobile LG G4] MadCarbon:
Used on an LG Aristo that has Cyanogen and it worked

This was the only one i found that didnt brick my phone and trust me ive bricked and unbricked this phone many times
[T-Mobile LG G4] Android#:
When you use the fastboot command to lock back your bootloader, the phone doesn't revert automatically to the stock recovery and actually that is partly the reason why it bricks and other main reason is that changes made to bootloader to obtain root brick the phone. before you relock bootloader, if you have SuperSU (in-app menu option) or Magisk (uninstall zip file), use their respective methods to unroot the phone, then use twrp to flash .image file of stock recovery to recovery partition then use the fastboot command to lock the bootloader. Even then it may or may not work because if whatever method the phone uses to check the integrity of bootloader and/or recovery, such as md5, if it doesn't match, the phone will still brick. Since all your data on phone will be erased regardless as soon as you lock the bootloader, i personally just fastboot lock the bootloader, remove battery to power down, use the volume up and plug usb cable in from pc to put phone in download mode and just use LGUP (uppercut) if have kdz file already, which i do, i just let LG Bridge download the file, find it in programs folder and copy it to another location before LG Bridge deletes it --OR-- just use error recovery option in Software Update tab in LG Bridge as both LGUP and LG Bridge will detect the phone in download mode even if it is bricked.

By the way, I have used both methods above dozens of times without any issues, someone above who mentioned phone boot-looping because of locking the bootloader, it is boot-looping not because of hardware flaw which was widespread in LG G3 but a software issue (phone boots up, doesn't find the software configuration it is looking for and just restarts) and they are not the same issues, no need to freeze the phone, won't help.
[T-Mobile LG G4] metropical:
the method works, but no OTA from T-Mobile. "verification problem".

When I try to "adb reboot bootloader" I get "security error".

If I try reboot recovery, TWRP is definitely not there.

Just want to update from20Q to 20X.

Any help would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Android#:
The above points to you not giving permission possibly because either you missed the permission pop-up or selected option that didn't allow permission.

Mi Note 2 - Global Rom Release

Okay so MIUI have finally released the global version of MIUI for Mi Note 2.

Remember this ROM works on all versions of the Mi Note 2, not just the Global Edition but also the CN edition with limited bands just don't go thinking it will unlock those extra bands.

For the many of us on xiaomi.eu or mi-globe there are limited gains perhaps but let's not forget what options we have now.

Full Official Multi-Language Rom can be used with locked bootloader. This means there is no root but:

We can pass Android SafetyNet - Android Pay Compatibility, Various Banking Apps

Multi-Language Rom that supports OTA updates

Pre-Installed Google Apps

Much less Chinese Bloatware

Probably a few other things I'm forgetting.

Now for the download links:

These are direct from Xiaomi so note their speed isn't always the best but I'd rather give you you direct from them so you know there's no tampering.

NB. Latest Dev version (Global Beta version 7.3.2 has been suspended for Mi Note 2 this week so this is the most recent.) You will be notified by Updater when a new release is available.

Recovery versions (i.e zip) can be flashed via TWRP (though won't be able to flash OTA updates this way) or for full MIUI guide see here

One final note, don't go discussing the global dev rom on the MIUI forums until they make it available themselves. No good will come of it.

And on the somewhat optimistic side usually Xiaomi release source code 3-4 months after global rom release. Once that source code is released hopefully we can see some real dev action for custom roms.

[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] white43:
I've purchased the Mi Note 2 from Banggood today, keen to use the Global Rom, as I'm sure it'll be better than what I get!

Is there a link somewhere to show how to install [MENTION=5561203]StoneTrapper[/MENTION]?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] StoneTrapper:
There's probably a more complete guide on the MIUI forums.

The short of it is you need to apply to unlock the bootloader of your device (it may already come unlocked - I don't know if Banggood install custom vendor ROMs).

After that personally I'd install TWRP since I'd want it rooted anyway.

Once you've done that you flash the zip with TWRP (there are now newer versions than listed here - check MIUI forums)

Flash Magisk or SuperSU or something if you want root and that's it.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] white43:
Thanks. Do I need to unlock Bootloader and root? I see it does say you can install without unlocking the bootloader. I'm not bothered about root.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] StoneTrapper:
You don't need to root but it's a bit of a gamble with the bootloader.

It's possible to do it with it locked but if anything goes wrong then you're in an awkward position. You can use the built-in recovery and rename to update.zip method.

Mi Note 2

I got the Global Mi Note 2 from china, I am so glad it came with a locked bootloader and the Global ROM pre-installed. Unfortunately, you just *CANNOT* install the official ROM w/o unlocking the bootloader, just an FYI. Once you flash the official ROM, it will relock the bootloader. But I need security on my device so I need the bootloader to be locked but luckily it came pre-installed with the Global ROM so I am pleased needless to say..

[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] trentbg:
What do you mean a "Global Rom"? Which version of it is, can you be more specific. The latest on the mi site is 8.2.6.0, is that what it came on yours?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mohan_kr:
When I bought it, it came with 8.2.4.0 .. but I have done the OTA update to 8.2.5.0 now...I don't think 8.2.6.0 has been released for Mi Note 2 yet (officially)
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] trentbg:
Interesting, mine is on 8.2.3.0...Do you have the Global Version of the phone (6gb ram 128gb rom, 37 LTE bands)?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mohan_kr:
Yes correct! .. except for VoLTE (AT&T and their certifications), this phone is truly the only Global Phone Dual Sim (Apple is only single SIM)..already flew out and tested and I get VoLTE on other international 4G networks no issue!
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] trentbg:
So weird though, mine came with 8.2.3.0 and no OTA after that, yours came with 8.2.4.0 and you are on 8.2.5.0 now...anything special for me to do and trigger that OTA?

BTW, incredible phone, worked out on Verizon right away with voice, text, lte and volte!
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] StoneTrapper:
If you're not getting OTA updates it's most likely you have a vendor ROM rather than official. Download and flash an official update (there are plenty of guides on the MIUI forums if you're unsure how), after that you'll be good to get OTA updates.

8.2.6.0 is the latest stable I believe - It's available as a fastboot rom but for whatever reason not a flashable zip. Alternatively you can update to Miui 8.2.5.0 with a recovery update. That way you can confirm OTA updates and not have to lose any saved apps. Both links are for global version.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] trentbg:
Do you have the Global Version of the phone, 8.2.6.0 is only available for the Chinese version of the phone and not the Global. I don't think that is a vendor rom, the phone came in a factory sealed box and I have the update app/option on it. Some people were advising to change the region to India or something else from USA and the new versions will come, bit I haven't tried yet.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] khaledome:
hi there,

i have the global miui global 8.0.9.0.0 version

why it doesn't get any ota updates? my both imei's are altered for some reasons,

if i install latest global rom will it delete my imei numbers?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] StoneTrapper:
Both the download links are for the global stable rom.

8.2.6.0 is the latest stable release for both Chinese and Global rom. Both roms work (with the correct band support) on all editions of the phone.

The Chinese rom has CN in the code name, i.e. MADCNDL, whereas the global has MI i.e MADMIDL, in the same place. If you check About in Settings you'll see the code next to the Miui version info. You'll see the same codes in the download links.

The vendor roms will still usually include the update app and often resellers will re-seal boxes. Not to say you definitely have one but that doesn't preclude it.

Changing region might help, otherwise the links are above.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mohan_kr:
I don't see any download link for Mi Note 2 8.2.6.0..I did an OTA update to 8.2.5.0 ..not willing to flash any rom unless it is an OTA or gets through system update right now..

I did luck out with the vendor though, i asked a bunch of questions before I ordered it.currently the only way to verify if you have a global version of the phone is by the lettering on the box..unfortunately..
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] StoneTrapper:
For whatever reason 8.2.6.0 is only shipping as a fastboot rom at the moment. No idea why but I doubt there's any major features you're missing out on.

Direct link

Courtesy of this page.

It's a horrible way to update though, fine for a clean install.

The naming convention is a mess with the overlap of global rom and global edition being easily confused, notably on the vendors part around launch but it does seem they've sorted themselves out now.

The box being the only distinction really doesn't help matters.

Yes, it's possible.

I replaced my (Videos) with (TCPMP) by modifying the registry:

Change Path from

\Windows\HTCAlbum.exe

to

\Program Files\TCPMP\player.exe

Change Param from

-mode:camera -type:video

to

Soft-reset.

Same thing can be done for Music, Photos icons, or other applications (ie. IE, CommManager,...) with HKLM\HTC\Biotouch\APLauncher and appropriate APPx registry.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jedbot5000:
This doesn't make sense since the change you're suggesting refers to the program htcalbum.exe instead of windows media player...wouldn't this just route all calls to htc album to tcpmp instead of rerouting everything that would normally go to WMP to TCPMP? Or am I a douche?

hi,

here is a quick and dirty solution i made some minutes ago for my self.

copy all files from the tcpmp dir to the windows folder.

rename player.exe to wnplayer.exe

install mycert_cert.cab file and replace the htcalbum.exe with the one in the rar file.

now the htcalbum should open videos with the tcpmp.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e1ement08:
I decided to start a thread because I noticed there were multiples about this issue. So 3 days ago I was on Facebook when my phone randomly froze. I pushed the power button, and that's when it began bootlooping. I instantly tried booting into recovery with no success. I was hopeful, however, because I could still access the bootloader. I got on my computer and began researching the issue and steps I could take to fix it. I tried every method out there and was unsuccessful. I ended up buying a Pixel today off Craigslist and am loving it so far. So anyway since my Pixel came with the OEM charger, and I had been using a non-oem ever since I had my 6P, I decided to plug in the OEM and see what happens. Within the first hour my 6P began to get very hot, almost to the point where I couldn't even hold it in my hand. Keep in mind the phone was still consistently boot looping the whole time. So I decided to unplug it. Well I left it sitting and went about my business and when I came back to my bed I noticed it was doing the Google boot animation!!!! I started freaking out! After it booted up I finished the tutorial stuff and just let it sit on the home screen for a second. I noticed the battery was low so I figured I would plug the charger back up and let it charge. Well in the time it has taken me to write this post, it just started boot looping again... Lol. So I just unplugged the charger AGAIN, to see if it will boot up again. To me, it seems like there might be a hardware issue with my battery. Anyway, my 6P was rooted and running nitrogen OS (wasn't running the latest build but was 7.1.)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
what are the exact symptoms? and does it boot into bootloader and recovery if not what is it physically doing?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e1ement08:
As of now it is still boot looping and no it doesn't boot into recovery. Only symptoms I've noticed is the phone starts to get extremely hot when I plug in the OEM charger that came with my Pixel. I figured they were the same so that's why I decided to use it since it was OEM.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
I had a 6p that bootlooped eternally couldnt access boot or recovery, I sent it in and they sent a new one. Board was damaged.

I also had a nexus 5 that bootlooped and it turned out to be a bad power botton. the internal connection was broken so it would get power and lose power all in the same second, off and on but too fast to see other than seeing a bootlooping device. that was fixed with a new power button which had to be soldered on.

if not on warranty you could take to a cell phone repair shop maybe they might be able to fix the issue.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e1ement08:
It is under warranty, but the sad part is that I no longer have the receipt for it. I got the phone off Craigslist and the guy gave me the original box and receipt but I managed to lose it. I haven't been able to get it to fully boot back up again since last night. I'm not that worried about it anymore because I already have a new phone, but I wouldn't mind if it were to some how fix itself lol.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
my first bootloop years ago i thought the same.

it wont fix itself. its not a software isssue because youd be able to at least boot into bootloader. it sucks to hear the truth but thats the truth.

its a hardware issue and you could take it to a repair shop because they will inspect and fix. small drops that dont harm the device can ultimately cause small breaks in the solder joints so who knows what is wrong without inspection
