      dude,i have a question about my phone , the unrooting process was doing great and finally unrooted but is it necessary to install bootloader too ?

      Hello
      I would like to ask a question.When I open the CMD window,concerning the tampered flag,I type twrp.img but it says"cannot load twrp.img:No such file or directory".I would be really grateful if you could help with that
      Thanks in advance!!!

      Hello
      I tried over and over to boot with the twrp.img file and it finally worked.I guess I've made some kind of spelling mistake in the 'fastboot boot twrp.img'command.Keep try until it works!!!

    Great video. Easy to follow. One thing that got me stuck was the download location I got twrp from, you can't just right click and download - you get a garbage file that way. YOu have to click through and wait for the valid download link.

    a general advice ... try always to avoid usb 3 in any of these tweaks like rooting, unrooting, flashing a rom etc..
    to all of your having trouble that fastboot.exe has stoppeed working try a usb 2 port or even try another laptop without a usb 3 port just to make sure ... hope that help :)
