It is unlocked, but greyed out. QFIL won't work so no way to get into fastboot, to lock and unlock.:confused: So I am pretty well SOL.:(. QFIL won't bring up the option to get into Partiton Manager.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] KouaV1:
You dont need qfil to get into fastboot as thats a method from Xsavi for bootloader unlocking. Use the files in Xsavis post https://xdaforums.com/lg-v40/development/unlock-lg-v40-via-9008-root-t-mobile-t4042207 . how did you get into fastboot mode in the first place to unlock it? Does Qfil show 9008 mode? if not showing 9008 it mean you didnt do it right.You need to relock the bootloader after you flash back the original kdz, do the steps to unlock again or else you cant flash twrp.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Droidman61:
I installed US Pie through LGUP from Sprint. I lost fast boot in the process, and now when I try using QFIL the Partition Manager will now pop up for me to flash the Engineering Bootloader (abl_a").:confused: All the drivers are installed and showing up correctly in Windows 10 Device Manager, and in QFIL.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] KouaV1:
Yeah flash the v35 eng image onto the abl_a partition but back up your abl_a first before doing that incase it messed up. After you have done that you should press and hold the Power and Volume Down buttons until your device reboots out of 9008. When you hear the disconnect sound, immediately hold volume down (only volume down) to enter fastboot right away.

If still no fastboot then after you have sucessfully unlocked bootloader and stuff then youll need qfil to flash twrp onto abl_a.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Droidman61:

So I don't know why the "Partition Manager" in QFIL will not work so I can install abl_a!::(
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] KouaV1:
Does device Manager show your in "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008"? Are you setting storage type to "UFS" in Qfil? Are your COM ports correct in device manager and in QFil? I ask these questions just incase you did something wrong but All I know is if your device does not have fastboot then qfil will be the one you need to flash twrp. Also make sure your using a USB 2.0 port as 3.0 has issues with the V40. Other thing is if your phones developer setting has OEM unlock greyed out then you will need to relash original kdz and relock bootloader and unlock again otherwise youll have fastboot fail with twrp flash. You don't need fastboot for qfil to work unless your phone is bricked if its just black screen and no light and if you cant boot into your phone.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Droidman61:
Wow thank you for the info, sadly I have Sprint and there is NO kdz for this.:( to lock and re-lock. I think I am screwed.

Thank you.:good:
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] KouaV1:
Yeah your probably screwed if you locked it with a custom rom or twrp. This a reason why I rather go with US unlvoked variant. AT&T also never releases software or firmwares for their phones and verizon removing fastboot. US carriers want your money thats the reason they do all these

Hi

I bought a moto g6 plus from a friend and noticed some small errors, when investigating I found that he has a rom from another smartphone. When trying to install the stock rom I found that the fastboot is changed and I can't access to unlock the bootloader. I would like to know without any other means of installing stock rom.
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] riyan65:
Is your fastboot is working?

If yes, you can use lenovo moto smart assistant app to reflash the stock ROM.

[MENTION=10625799]ggg777[/MENTION]

First make sure you install the stock OS to both slots, including the bootloader. I forgot to flash bootloader_b, and got stuck in EDL last week. You don't want that to happen and it's not easy to get out of. If you do this first, you will not have to worry about getting bricked.

Use my instructions found here for twrp. Inside the instructions you'll also find a link to my modded phh. Flashing a GSI can be done with twrp or fastboot. You also don't need the dtbo.img anymore since it's embedded inside of twrp. The trickiest part really, is just getting twrp installed. If you're using twrp to install a GSI, wipe system, data, dalvik, then flash the image to system. (You'll get a location prompt.) After installing a GSI, copy the overlay to /vendor/overlay, and set permissions on it to 0644, then reboot. Flash modded phh for root if you're using LOS 16 or 17. I think it's already included in Phh's AOSP builds.

There's also a trick to dual boot your OS. I keep one slot with stock installed, that's debloated and rooted with magisk. The other slot I use for flashing GSIs. Twrp can't restore encrypted data for stock, but you can format /data using "yes" then switch slots and use "reboot recovery" to boot up stock with magisk. To swap back to the GSI, fastboot boot twrp, format data, switch slots from the reboot menu, reboot to recovery. If twrp starts, you changed slots successfully. Then just restore data for lineage and bootup.

Oh by the way, "dirty flashing" is just flashing an OS update without wiping data first. I don't recommend it though. Sometimes bugs from older builds will get carried over. You don't need to do that to install LOS 17 or Android 10. It might've been true at one time, but it isn't now. You can just do your wipes and flash the latest build.

How can I check if both partitions are with stock and bootloader?

Is there a trick to copy a working partition to the oter?

I would flash like it is written in this: [Guide][Channel][Stock]Moto g7 play Factory Firmware Images

(https://xdaforums.com/g7-play/how-to/channel-moto-g7-factory-firmware-images-t3996303)

Would it flash both partitions (if only one is written)?

Thanks for your help :)
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
Typically if you've taken an OTA then you already have both slots filled. You can check with...

fastboot getvar all

Near the bottom you'll see some slot information. If slot b is active, then you should already be covered. I still think it's best to manually flash both slots though. If you've never updated then slot b is definitely empty. This is what I do...

fastboot flash boot_a boot.img

fastboot sending image boot_a...
Successful!
Image not signed blah blah something that isn't important...

Hit the up arrow on the keyboard then just change _a to _b

fastboot flash boot_b boot.img

Same with system, only I run through the list of sparse chunks in one shot, then hit the other slot. Use the big series of sparse chunks (0-7) on both slots. Skip the two that would normally go to system_b.

fastboot flash system_a system.image_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system_a system.image_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system_a system.image_sparsechunk.2

etc...

Then on the other side the same way.

fastboot flash system_b system.image_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system_b system.image_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system_b system.image_sparsechunk.2

etc...

When you get to oem, do not use oem_other.img, flash oem.img to both slots instead. Basically just make sure you do that with everything. E.g. dsp_b modem_b. I'm sure you get the idea by now.
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] ggg777:
Hello Spaceminer,

I have little knowledge in working with terminal in debian (I used man fastboot and tried some things like changing slots but this did not work). And then I tried some of these things and was to scared to brick it so I flashed it with RDS Lite (I hate to use Windows ;) ) last night.

With RDS Lite flashing was no problem and I got a OTA, so slots a and b are not empty. After that I used your TWRP-Guide which you linked and it worked :)

BUT

Then I was trying to flash a GSI (arm32binder64ab):

lineage-17.1-20200309-UNOFFICIAL-treble_a64_bvN.img

Havoc-OS-v3.0-20191226-A64AB-Unofficial.img

system-quack-arm32_binder64-ab-vanilla.img

it completed but failed to boot:

Start Up Failed:

---

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)

No bootable A/B slot

Failed to boot Linux, falling back to fastboot

Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from normal boot mode

No bootalbe A/B slot

Failed to boot Linux, falling back to fastboot

Boot up failed

---

TWRP is always available with:

fastboot -> recovery

Could you please help me to handle this?

I would really love to use this phone de-googled with root permission cause I'm sad of spying on me by Gafa and the moto g7 play (I hate the size of the bigger ones) looks like the perfect model for me :)

All- I've tried to search the forum but no luck for my situation. Today I had been using my 8528 just fine. I opened the phone to start a txt message but the screen backlisght went off and the items on the screen got small lines running thru them. I tried a soft reset at the time but it didn't reset. I then removed the battery but the artifacts on the screen remained. i replaced the battery but it owuld not turn on. I tried another soft reset but nothing. i took the battery out for several minutes and then tried again, nothing. I plugged it into the wall charger but nothing lit up and it would not power on..... what the hell is going on??? thanks!

We don't say "hard whack" here we say "scientific tap":)

Essentially, if it's a slack or slightly oxidised contact then a "scientific tap" may work, otherwise it's dismantke and extract and re-seat all the connectors. (assuming you don't have a Warranty,if you do, then use it!)

Hello guys,

I recently installed Evo X ROM on my Mi 9T pro device, following MUNCHY (youtuber) steps. And I gotta say that my device works smoothly. But now, my banking apps can do nothing. Say for example, I wanted to revert to MIUI stock ROM with locked bootloader, what are the steps? I cannot find anything in the forum yet with the detailed steps on it.

Another question is, how would you know what ROM were you previously installed now that you are in Custom ROM? Say for example, Global EU, or Chinese, or Global Stable? Since I followed Munchy's tutorial, I see that the firmware I previously got was Global EU, does this mean that my previous ROM was Global EU?

Cheers!

If you see a blank page viewing on a mobile, then change the browser to desktop mode and refresh. In step 5 you will keep the default flash option of 'clean all and lock'. You just need to make sure it is the correct ROM first, otherwise you risk hard bricking the phone.

Not sure if there's any way of knowing what version of MIUI the phone originally came with, other than looking at the label on your box, now that you've flashed a custom ROM. If you have a Mi 9T Pro and not a K20 Pro, then you should be OK flashing either the Global EU or 'True' Global. Looking around the Mi Community site I've linked above, you can find an article saying that you can cross flash EU and Global ROMs and still lock the bootloader. From what you've said it sounds like you was on EU, but without knowing the video you watched, I don't know what information you're basing that on. (If you got the info from the about phone setting page before flashing, then you have an EU phone. If the info is because the video instructed you to blindly flash the latest EU firmware files, then we're still not sure)

Hello Robbo,

Thank you for the detailed response.

I have a Mi 9T Pro. Currently, I do not have the box it originally came with. From the youtube video, it directed me to check the firmware I previously had from the settings before I flash the custom rom . The firmware from my settings says, RAPHAELEEAGlobal. But actually, I am not quite sure if this correlates to having an EEAGLOBAL(EU ROM). Can you please enlighten me?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
Yes you had the Global EU ROM, so go ahead and flash that again and lock the bootloader.

Head over to here and download the latest EEA/EU fastboot ROM.
