Fairphone 4 Back to Stock rom

Hi all I had my Fairphone 4 for a while now and is really happy

It hs been running calyxOS but now i would like to go back to stock

I have followed this guide but i cant get it to fastboot flashing unlock to work

I can do the ./adb devices & ./adb reboot bootloader

I asume that when do ./adb reboot bootloader i have to say start

And then do the ./fastboot flashing unlock but then it just says < waiting for any device>

But nothing happens

Hope someone can point my to a solution :slight_smile:

If you use windows follow this guide

I have done what u linked to

and

But i get stock on waiting for devices

When i can ./adb devices and see the phone i assume that i have connection and its not a cabel or driver issue

i dont have any unkown devices in device manager

Hi Bricked,

as I can see from your screenshots you are using Powershell to execute the commands. Please open a CMD shell to execute the commands. For most applications it makes no difference, but some only work correctly with CMD.

well you dont need adb but fastboot, thus did you follow what I linked to update fastboot driver?

from your images you’re not in fastboot mode. >fastboot devices returns nothing. You seem instead to be in recovery (in which > adb devices works).

so try > adb reboot bootloader and then, without touching the phone, > fastboot devices. You should get something in return.

What do you mean by “say”?

The green “start” is default in fastboot mode. Once you see that, the phone is in the correct state for the fastboot commands on the PC.
