1.Download the correct firmware file for your phone at the bottom of the post.
2.Make sure Flashtool is installed.
3.Place downloaded firmware file(.ftf format) in Flashtool\firmwares(by default C:\Program Files\Flashtool) folder.
4.Start Flashtool.
5.Click the lightning button and choose Flashmode.
6.Firmware should appear there, if you have it in correct folder. Choose it.
7.Turn off your phone, connect USB cable to computer, then press Volume Down button and connect USB cable to your phone.
8.Flashtool should detect your phone and starts flashing. Follow the instructions.
9.When it says „Flashing completed“, unplug your phone and turn it on.
note: plug usb cable with volume down to flashtool(you get mesaGE "DEVICE CONNECTED IN FLASH MODE" IN LOG) and flash the firmware from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27376024&postcount=3

Man why so complicated when u have backup enter cwm choose custm restore and restore only system, or make a flashable zip with only framework-res apk??
I've tried to install a ROM encountered some issues tried troubleshooting an accidentally deleted something in recovery I believe.
Then, I tried to use the Nexus Tool Root kit an I don't remember what I did wrong there, and now my Nexus doesn't get recognized by the PC (Not even in Device Manager.)
I was unable to do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1781250 method because I cant even set up the N7 in Debugging mode and was confused by the prompt instructions because it didn't work for me. (I'm using Windows 7)
The Nexus is stuck on the screen with the Android bot with his stomach open as can be seen in the image.. When I put it in Recovery Mode it says 'Booting Failed'..... Has anyone gone through this or can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to save my Nexus?? Thank you in advance
I believe you can try something below to bring it back...

then after command window opens...
connect ur mobile with computer using USB, reboot it to fastboot...
then in PC,
Type in command window ----->>>>> fastboot devices
if ur device ID is displayed--- then u can see ur phone is still connected to ur pc...
then after that try to download a working Recovery --- either CWM/TWRP --- then copy that to the folder which contains ur adb files...
then type in command window
fastboot flash recovery #### recovery image.img #### ---------------------->> ( replace #### recovery image.img #### by the real name of ur recovery)
when it says OKAY done...then u don't have any problem.... if not, i guess ur mobile drivers are not installed properly..so u have to install it again in ur pc...
------------------------------
after installing ur recovery --- then restart ur mobile into recovery option --- backup ur current recovery....
----------------------------
then u can flash other roms at ease --- Though i use HTC ONE X...i hope Nexus is not much different with the sequence...if u wanna know more about rooting...read in the XDA forum...if possible also go through this guide...

thanks for reply
my device is china MT6572 with android 4.2.2
I have use a very very very superb tool named "MtkDroidTools v2.48" and bricked my newly purchage tablet.
1. I click on root and happy thing is that tablet got rooted. wow
2. I have created backup from this tool and after few minutes, many *.img backup files are created on my pc and my tab's sdcard. wow again
3. After restarting the tab it restarting again & again and not booting. really a "heart attacking wow".
I have tried following steps
1. In default "android stock recovery 3e" trying to restore backup files and got message "installation aborted" everytime. same message from using "adb sideload command"
2. creating a scatter file from this tool and load backup in "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1343.01" tool. but no any tool connect my tab. it says no device.
3. only "adb sideload" from stock recovery has the way to connect to the pc. but I don't know which kind of files are used at there??
During the backup process a log file created by MtkDroidTools has attached for details information.
then plz tell me. what I do for get again a "relaxed wow"??
Load scatter file and back up files in SP Flash tool. Power your tablet off, hit download button in SP Flash tool then connect tab to pc.
If you have the preloader driver installed SP flash tool should connect and start flashing firmware to phone. Do you hear the connecting sound when you connect powered off tablet to pc? If not, you may need to press and hold Vol Down, Vol up, or menu button while connecting tab to pc.
Hope this helps and good luck!

Thanks a lot sir
but my tab has no menu button, only have three hard buttons.
pressing
power + volup = stock recovery
power + voldown= nothing happen
power + volup + voldown = poweroff tab

I have preloader drivers on my pc but when turn on the tab. it is appearing in device manager (preloader composite) for only 2-3 seconds. and disconnected. because tablet rebooting again. I can't install preloader drivers in this short time.

Ok, no need to hit a combo of buttons, only 1 button you need to press while connecting tab to PC. Please retry following the directions from my last post again
Yes, preloader will only show for a few seconds in device manager before it turns off. Preloader is only for reflashing firmware. When it enables itself, it is looking for the SP FT (or other firmware flashing programs) to be there to catch it, if not preloader shuts itself off.. Your download of SP Flash Tool should have included the needed preloader drivers. Then you load files in SP FT and hit download button then connect tab to PC.

Thank you very very very very much. Finally I have got a wow.
After many efforts, I resolved the tablet booting issue. It is possible due to only your valuable suggestion.
steps are here:
1. connect tab to pc & installing preloader usb drivers.
2. getting VID & PID of tablet usb connection.
3. modifying "SP FT settings files" with new values of my tab.
4. creating a scatter file from droid tool & load in SP FT.
5. Flashing backup to the tab successfully.
You are such a genius. I have been wasted a lot of time since a week for getting the right answer. During this period I had connected to many android experts at many sites. but no satisfaction answer.
And u are really amazing. You have got the real problem in only three conversation. really great.
Well I m a windows expert. If u feel any technical problem regarding servers or windows, ask me, I will try my best.
I am launching a website soon named "GeniusPepoleofWorld.com". Many technical experts & genius people will listed there in different categories like Android experts, Windows experts, Linux Experts, Robotics Experts, Electronics xtra xtra. I want to add you at top there in Android Expert list. Now site is under constructions. I want to know your name & personal mail-id like gmail etc. When I will finish my site, I will inform you.
One more thing I want to know that "what is the use of stock recovery & adb sideload, which files types are used with it?"
Plz plz reply this with your name and mail-id.
Thanks a lot again

I am happy to hear it worked for you. Nice job Raj! I am just passing on the knowledge I learned here on XDA (Thank @rua1 he made MTK DroidTools and without that tool alot of folks with MTK devices wouldn't have root, stock firmware back up files, or working recovery
Anyhow, as for your last 2 questions. Stock recovery is used for flashing officially signed update files from your device manufacturer (If they were to make an update that is lol) This is how all android devices are able to accept ota updates, they download the file to phone/tablet then reboot into recovery and then it flashes the downloaded file to the device.
Adb sideload allows you to connect the device to a PC and then upload a firmware file to device to be flashed via recovery instead of downloading it directly to the phone. This is useful if you had an officially signed stock firmware file for your device stored on your pc. Some custom recoveries also allow you to use adb sideload but since you have stock recovery you would be restricted to using only officially signed files.
Say for instance you were not able to get your device to boot properly, you would just need to boot tablet into recovery mode and then choose adb sideload. At this point you would connect tab to PC and then put your firmware file in the same folder you have adb.exe in. (Let's call the firmware file "firmware.zip" in this example) Then open command prompt in same folder that adb.exe is in and type "adb sideload firmware.zip" this would push the firmware.zip file to the device then flash it for you.
Since you were able to use MTK Droidtools to get root then make a back up, you should be able to also use it to make a custom recovery for your device too. When you made the back up, it will usually make 2 back ups, one on your pc that you use SP FT to flash files and restore your device then it also makes a back up on your devices sd card that is flashed through custom recovery to restore your device. This would make restoring your device pretty easy if you need to do so again and it will also allow you to restore without needing a PC to do it.
Hope this helps!

I've got the exact same problem with my phone... My phone, Celkon A15 (Indian brand) also has the same chipset number and while trying to root using MTKdroids tool, I have managed to get it in the boot looping stage.
I'm just curious on how you managed to get the pre-loader installed for this? I CAN NOT get the SP Flash tools to detect my phone for the life of me. Also, when I load my scatter file, it has the "PRELOADER" section in RED... and when I try to upload the preloader.bin from my backup files, it says... "Load file "*path name*" fail!"
I am still struggling to understand how the SP Flash tool works and if it would be able to get my phone alive again (well it did help you out, so I am bit optimistic).
Please HELP!

Hi
1. First you have connect your device to pc.
2. you have to open the device manager and keep your eyes on a new hardware found at device manager, when you start up your device.
3. Preloader will only show for a few seconds in device manager before it turns off.
3. install preloader drivers.
4. open SP Flash tool and load scatter file and set path for your backup files.
5. Click download button and reboot your device.
6. Software will catch your device and finally backup will be restored to your device.
I too have got same problem, i have infocus m2 with mt6582, i rooted with kingroot n used mtk droid tools for backup.after backup i tried to modify boot img and install cwm using mtk tools but now it wont boot up, nor it enters recovery mode, i tried to flash stock boot and recovery img through sp flashtool but its giving error (2004), plz help me plzzzz....
Hi!
First off let me say thanks to R_a_z_v_a_n for redirecting me and hope that I'll find my answer here ^^
So I Have this device called HP 7 VoiceTab 1321RA (not with Slate just HP 7 Voicetab), wanting to have a custom recovery then I tried to flash a CWM Custom Recovery for HP Slate 7 VoiceTab because I thought it was the same and ends up bricking my phone. It ends up in a bootloop which only shows HP sign for a few seconds and dead. But I managed to find out that I can access the recovery menu (or so I thought it is), but the options was choosing between Fastboot Mode, Normal Boot, Recovery Mode, and VART Mode.
I tried to enter Fastboot Mode before and tried to access it via PC but somehow I can't find the device by entering adb devices and fastboot devices. Anyways, I have downloaded a stock update.zip for it but not the original KitKat one which I get from the first time I bought it but rather the JB ones. I think by flashing this would help me recover the device but the only problem is I don't know which method should I use to Flash it. Since I don't have the Stock Recovery or ANY kind of recovery at all, I guess I'm stuck. And it won't start to the home page so I can't set the USB debugging options. Please guide me through this >.<
Thanks a lot!
Been fighting with it for 2 days now and still no result came.
So here's the update so far....
I tried on my other device in order to understand how my PC reads ADB and now I kinda gets it. But the problem is now can't get the device to enable USB Debugging because I can't access options at all.
Secondly, since I left it on for the night because charging seems to trigger the bootloop too, now I can't access the fastboot mode like I was last night. And it constantly repeating this sequence: [battery scene with the "charging battery" symbol] > [HP Powered by Android screen] repeated for 2-3 times > [low battery need charging screen] > repeat. And once I tried to connect to the PC, it goes to the same sequence too. When I tried to access the boot options (the screen which displays Fastboot Mode, Normal Boot, Recovery Mode, and UART Mode which I mention in Thread Starting post), it shows the low battery need charging scene and then repeating the same sequence as mentioned above.
I seem to figure out how to fix this but I still can't manage to access the fastboot mode yet. Will give update once I can try to.
Anyone can help me on this?
Thanks a lot!
Update!
Somehow with a little tweaking and stripping the device, I managed to solve the charging problems. Will update on this once my problem finished.
Jump out from the frying pan and into the fire so they say, I ran into another problem. Finally managed to get into fastboot mode, the devices manager reads it as an Android Device>ROMaster ADB device like the other device I tried to connect while in ADB mode and fastboot mode, but somehow CMD cannot read the device as an ADB device or a Fastboot device like the other device did. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver and still nothing happens. I tried to find the usb_driver on the internet and it directs me to the update.zip instead. Trying to update the driver via Computer Management but it says the driver is up to date. Now thinking about making an emulator device based on the HP 7 VoiceTab 1321RA but I really have no idea how to make one. Any one have any idea of what should I do next or can guide me through this? At least until the CMD can read the fastboot.
Thanks a lot!
I found my self in a deadlock!
PLEASE HELP :crying:
Could you unbrick yours
What service centre says about that problem i also ran in this problrm but i m trying to go to service centre for that

Hii XDA fellows,
So I have seen many people asking for noob friendly guide to restore original oxygen os firmware or basically unbrick device. There are several thread on this already but trust me I have tried them all and in my case I had to use my own brain. So I have compiled a noob friendly guide which I,myself have used to unbrick my device.
small warning this will wipe all of your data.
Firstly I wants to thank Some_Random_Username for bringing up MSM Unbrick tool for OnePlus Nord. His guide to unrick nord is also fairly good enough but in my case I was stuck in bootloop after installing a rom. My phone was not even booting to Qualcomm EDL Mode so that I can use MSM Tool.
Lets start with pre-requisites:
You must have unlocked bootloader.
Original Oneplus Type - C cable.
Windows PC.
ADB debugging turned on your phone.
Firstly Switch off your device, which I think most of you have already have as the device is bricked but in case your phone is stuck in bootloop or recovery or bootloader menu itself then try holding down voume up button and power button together hold them down till you get heptic feedback and screen goes off. Let it be cool down for about a minute.
Now Setup your PC:
Download MSM tool to from this guide : Click here
Setup adb environment in your PC if you havent already setup follow this guide
Download Qualcomm EDL drivers from here: Click here
Now download Unofficial TWRP recovery by Mauronofrio from here
On your PC right click on start menu icon and start Windows Powershell(Admin) and type this command bcdedit /set testsigning on This will turn off driver signature verifications on windows you will be required to restart your pc now after you restart your pc will boot into test mode and you'll see a watermark stating the same in bottom left of your desktop. Worry not we will undo this after we have finished restoring.
install Qualcomm EDL drivers by running the setup listed above.
Unzip MSMTool there you will see a file named MsmDownloadTool V4.0.exe run it, it'll take some time but after you see a pop up asking for user type user name and password, Select other as user type and leave other stuffs blank as it is and click next.
In the next window, In the target button select O2 while using global tool or India while using indian tool or EU when using european tool.
Now you have to boot into Qualcomm Emergency Download Mode
You can do this in several diffrent ways but one I am listing here is recommended :
Boot into fastboot/bootloader mode by pressing and holding Volume up, Volume down and power button together when you see a Menu pop up on your screen you can let go all the fingers at once.
Now connect your phone to your PC and go to that folder where TWRP recovery is located. Hold Shift button and Right click inside that folder you'll see an option "Open powershell window here click on it. In the powershell window type
fastboot devices and press enter your device will be listed as fastboot devices in powershell window. Now type
fastboot boot twrp1.img press enter
your device will boot up in TWRP recovery in twrp recovery go to reboot section and select Edl, This will boot your phone Edl mode your screen will go off as soon as it happens in the MSM tool window you'll see a device listed as com3/com5/com7.
Click on start button the restoration process will begin. Wait for about 400 secs and your device will automatically boot up.
Voila you've successfully unbricked your phone.
If you want to exit from Driver test mode on your pc simply start a powershell window with admin rights and type
bcdedit /set testsigning off
and restart your PC.

Seems like it's a software issue probably a bug in your rom rich out to the developer he might help you, as you have tried both with Linux and windows i don't think it's a driver issue, it could be an issue with the hardware also but chances are pretty low for this to happen. Try flashing other roms if you have backup of your phone, use orange fox recovery it has an option of taking nandroid backup.

the thing is that i cant flash other roms, my phone dosn't gets recognized in fastboot, recovery and edl, so with the aex recovery installed i have no chance to change the rom without a pc, reached out to the dev but seems i'm the only person with the proplem, but thanks for helping.
