Hi
Yesterday, my phone suddenly crashed and turned off and restarted. My phone has been rooted and unlocked for about 6 months now with no issues and I did not do anything to it last night to change that.
Now, I am stuck between the "Google" logo boot and the "Your device cannot be checked for corruption." I can get into the bootloader and the device is shown on fastboot, but not adb. I have tried flashing the Stock img and it seems to work, but then it doesn't change anything.
If anyone could offer advice/insight that would be much appreciated! Thank you
Have you tried fastboot format data, fastboot format userdata and lastly fastboot format cache?
Hi,
I did a TWRP wipe (everything checked) to prepare for a restore to stock, but my device is now stuck at the very first "Google" screen with the pad lock icon at the bottom. How do I get it to boot?

So since everything was checked, that means you wiped the system partition. The device will not boot if you do that unless you flash a factory image via fastboot or new ROM via TWRP
OK, I thought wiping /system would just bring it back to factory state. 2 questions now
1. How do I get to recovery when it's always stuck at the Google screen with no adb access? Would I have to wait for the battery to run out (hence turn off), charge it for a while, then use the buttons to boot to recovery, or is there a faster way?
2. I am actually trying to revert to stock ROM (downloaded at https://developers.google.com/android/images#angler) by following step 10 of the Heisenburg guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928) which advises me to use fastboot to flash the individual images. In my case, how do I boot to fastboot?
OK, so I managed to boot to the bootloader and run the following commands as per the Heisenberg guide (using the stock MTC20L firmware)
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader C:\angler\images\bootloader-angler-angler-xx.xx.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio C:\angler\images\radio-angler-angler-xx.xx.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot C:\angler\images\boot.img
fastboot erase cache
(above command is unnecessary on Android 7.1.2 and above)
fastboot flash cache C:\angler\images\cache.img
(above command is unnecessary on Android 7.1.2 and above)
fastboot flash recovery C:\angler\images\recovery.img
fastboot flash system C:\angler\images\system.img
fastboot flash vendor C:\angler\images\vendor.img
Everything was successful, and I did a fastboot reboot after that.
However, my device still doesn't boot up. This time. It's boot loops for a few times before turning off.
I tried booting up to bootloader with power/vol-. Curiously, I can now only do this when cable is connected. If cable is disconnected, the orange LED just blinks once when power button is pressed, and nothing happens. Once cable is connected, then I'm able to boot up to bootloader with the button combination. I then retried the flash process again, but still no go. I noticed after fastboot reboot that the orange LED blinked a few times before rebooting and boot looping.
Kinda stuck now, any ideas?
Try booting into recovery and doing a factory reset. I've had that happen to me a few times after flashing factory images and a wipe in recovery always fixed it.
Just for future information: if at any time the device is stuck in a bootloop you can get it to robot into recovery by holding the power and volume down buttons for 10 seconds, or get it to boot into bootloader by holding power and volume up buttons for 10 seconds.

Thanks. Booting into stock recovery shows an exclamation sign with "no command", since I don't have TWRP anymore. Would I need to first flash TWRP before I can do a factory reset?
I just tried flashing to the same sock firmware as before the problem happened (7.1.2 N2G47W) but still same problem. I notice that after the Google logo disappears and the screen goes blank, the orange LED blinks 10 times before rebooting.
Edit: Tried factory resetting in stock recovery (by holding down power button and pressing vol+), the rebooting after factory reset. Still getting a boot loop.
OK I solved the problem. Apparently if you reboot after the flash, you need to disconnect the USB cable, else it will boot loop.

brother help me! i am facing same issue
first little info abt my device.
my device was running on android nougat with twrp recovery installed but the device was not rooted.
so get back to stock and install oreo I followed every step given on http://www.androidexplained.com/nexus-6p-revert-stock/ but somehow my phone is stuck at bootloop with no recovery installed.
Please help me here.
As per the Heisenberg guide, if you don't install root (SuperSU or Magisk), TWRP won't stick, so you'll go back to stock recovery.
For me, simply unplugging the USB cable after rebooting after a flash solved my problem. For some reason, if the cable is connected during reboot, it would boot loop.
brother, somehow I managed to install twrp. but everytime I touch it 2-3 times the phone gets switched off.
then it keeps rebooting to 'Google' logo.
can you tell me what should I do now?

"your device software cannot be checked for corruption" after installing twrp, help!!
Hello, as title says, following oem unlock procedure, i flashed twrp using fasboot however i could never boot it and now when i try to go to fastboot mode and/or reboot, i see this message "your device software cannot be checked for corruption[...] please lock bootloader"!! Dunno what to do? Please help!
Easy: do absolutely nothing, this is intended behaviour. Unlocking the bootloader leads to the displaying of this message on boot up. Just LG's way of saying continue at your own risk.
Ok so they're even more annoying than samsung..! Anyway, my problem is : how do i enter TWRP..? I flashed again, successfully.. Then i dunno how to enter it!
"The stock recovery appears but you have to select the factory reset option and it will boot into TWRP" i read this. Well it's wrong. Doing so just launch the factory reset!
This video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MR4DTgTxhGI shows phone reboots to TWRP after entering "fastboot reboot" (once recovery was flash) : here it just reboots normally!
"Finally Type “fastboot boot TWRP-Recovery-filename.img” to boot your LG G6 into TWRP Recovery" well i thought about that and tried it :
D:\Android\ADB&Fastboot>fastboot boot recovery.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.901s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.925s
I'm very disapointed so far, i expected the G6 to be easier to handle the S7 but it's a pain even before i start using it.. Hell!!
It seems to me that you didn't boot into twrp immediately after flashing it via fastboot. Afaik it's important that you don't boot into OS after flashing, otherwise twrp will be overwritten with stock recovery. I had the same problem when I did the procedure.
The only way I got it to work was booting into twrp via button combo immediately after flash (you know - keep pushing power and vol- until Lg G6 logo appears, release only power and immediately push it again, keep 'em pushed until factory reset, confirm twice and it should boot into twrp). Once you've booted into twrp directly after flashing, it should stick.

After doing this, for TWRP to stick, you have to flash a custom rom, or delete the system/bin/install-recovery.sh to prevent stock recovery overtwrite
Hello!
I just repaired the display of my OP2 and when turning it back on it went straight into bootloop. Only showed the OP Logo and android on the bottom. ADB obviously doesnt work and tried to all partitions via fastboot to get fresh start. After completely resetting I unlocked the bootloader again just to be sure. Then I tried to flash twrp 3.2.1-0. it say dtb not found error. I tried a twrp 3.0.0-0 and it said succesfully flashed but after automatically rebooting the screen just turns black. I can the into fastboot mode or into bootloop can't do anything else. I also tried the MSM8994DownloadTool.exe but it just returns into bootloop again or turns black.
Help pls
I tried to root my phone.. without installing any custom recovery i just installed magisk manager then the zip file and started recovery booting (by pressing home+power+vol up). First it showed installing system updates then its displayed that failed to open recovery cause no such file. Now i cant reboot my device. There is a boot loop. I have tried wiping cache partition, data factory reset but still it dosn't opens. its stuck in samsanug logo page and keeps on booting again and again.
