Screen Unresponsive after edit touchpad.cfg - Motorola Photon 4G

Hi xda members, The problem is I was trying to solve the problem of the liquid protection, after you hold the screen for ten seconds it become unresponsive so i found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21936400&postcount=1 and tried it but what id did was not replace the file i just made an edit of it, copy the content from the file i downloaded from the forum and paste it on the original file, i made a backup of the original file content but when i restarted the phone the screen was totally unresponsive so i can't do anything and the worst part is that i can not go into fastboot mode or recovery because the bootloader is totally locked i had bootstrap recovery installed but it is useless if i can not open it, i was thinking on a way to access the system files from a Pc so i can restore the old file.. but the problem is that the mothods are flashing a file and go into fastboot but i can't go into fastboot mode because it throws an error "Failed to boot in fastboot mode" or something like that so i thin i'm totally screwd, and i'm hoping that you guys can help me out with this.. Thank you.

Converted a zimage to .tar file using winrar and flashed using odian: Phone bricked?

Hi,
I had recently rooted a stock kernel and had the zimage with me so unable to flash this using odian i used winrar to change this into a zImage.rar file and this rar file i renamed as kernel.tar
I assumed the flash will be fine with Odian so got my phone into bootloader and flashed using Odian this fake tar file
Now my phone screen shows a phone and a computer image and a disconnection arrow connecting them.
I tried to remove battery and get it in Bootloader mode but it dsnt go and instead i get the image again.
Any clue how i fix this?
1) the name is Odin NOT Odian
2) you can't simply rename a file, why did you not compress instead of rename?
3) you soft brick phone so put phone in download mode and reflash the entire firmware

There's a heap of apps in the market that can flash a zImage, no need to do w/e you did there.
Download app, start app, flash zImage directely from the app, done.
The easiest way is sometimes the best
Please help!

I have the exact same issue... I can see a phone a computer image and a disconnection arrow in between. But I got it completely differently, I flashed it with the Stock ROM (using Odin3) in phone mode, instead of PDA mode (since it was failing). I know it was stupid thing to do, but I panicked (maybe flashing/rooting is not for me).
I am still not sure if my phone is soft bricked or hard bricked, but I fear the worse cause I cannot go into recovery mode or the download mode. The only thing which is working out for me is that Odin3 says "Added!!" apart from that the phone just shows a black screen with a phone a computer and a warning sign between them.
Can you guys please please please help me get out of my tricky situation. I promise never to play with flahsing/modding ever again...

[Q] Vibrant is stuck at boot screen

I was trying to get my phone to make a nandroid backup, but for some reason it wouldn't let me. I searched on these forums and found a viable solution which was to download the update.zip and a new recovery file. I placed the update.zip into the folder called /external_sd, and then i put the recovery file into the SYSTEM/BIN folder. However, while using root browser lite, it said that the operation was unsuccessful, but there was a recovery file there. I then went into Rom Manager to see if it worked because there was a recovery file in there. When it booted up, the phone gets stuck at the lock screen. I really need urgent help. Even if I try to boot into recovery I don't think it works. I turn it off by holding the power button, but the phone turns on even if it moves. Anybody that can help, please help.
Edit: Nevermind, I got the phone working by removing the battery, then plugging it into the computer. I then plugged the battery back in, and the green charging bar showed up. Successfully booted and fixed using updated recovery file. Any mods can delete this.

[HELP] Huawei Ascend y330 stuck at EmergencyData

First of all, I'm so sorry if I'm posting in the wrong forum, seriously. But I've tried every single solution and nothing works, so please bare with me.
My friend's phone is stuck at the "EmergencyData" message "The user data partition cannot be used again, please select Backup/Factory Reset/Reboot". It boots up, then restarts, and this message shows up. Forever.
She obviously tried all three choices but none of them works. So after some browsing, some people said a possible solution is to install UPDATE.APP. So I've tried.
I downloaded the .APP file specifically for the Y330 u05, copied the dload folder with UPDATE.APP inside to the root of the SD, then tried to get into Update mode pressing VOLUP+VOLDOWN+POWER.
Somehow in the holy living of the universe, it doesn't work. Tried every single combination, pressed at the same time, pressed the VOL keys first, nothing. All it does is go into Recovery and sit there.
So, I tried using ADB. Installed the adb package and drivers, installed the Huawei drivers, got the phone into Fastboot mode, connected to the USB, then extracted cust/boot/system.img from UPDATE.APP.
ADB recognizes the phone in fastboot, but when I try "fastboot flash cust cust.img" it only prints "erasing cust" and stays there forever.
Can someone help? According to Google searches, there's apparently no one in existence with such bad luck as mine when it comes to phones. Should I just tell my friend to throw this thing away?
My y330 need help
Same phone same problem. Here waiting the solution
I have a phone HUAWEI ASCEND y330 - U01 and he will be provided only to restart emergencydata and it lets you choose only one) Backup 2) Factory data reset 3) reboot it will not do them no. I tried to make the dload UPDATE.APP But do something. phone standing in front of only emergencydata it and when I try to make it turn briefly to make an immediate restart, and then again in front emergencydata. What should I do to get the phone to perform again

Failed to mount /system, /sdcard, /cache in recovery screen. Keeps vibrating on boot.

My phone model is Micromax Knight 2 E471.
It was working fine but it all happened all of a sudden. I was trying to connect my phone to the computer to access some file. Suddenly, I got a message on my screen that Encryption interrupted with some text and a button to reset. I rebooted the phone but it had the same message and I had no option but to click on the Reset button. From that time until now... it does not want to boot.
Then I searched for it on google and tried to start with two key combinations Power+VolumeUp and Power+VolumeDown. Power+VolumeDown. does not do anything but Power+VolumeUp get me to a recovery screen that says failed to mount /system, /sdcard, /cache and so many things (screenshot attached).
From the recovery option, I tried
1. wipe data/factory reset - doesnt do anything
2. wipe cache partition - doesnt do anything
Then I took it to Micromax service center. They said, OS needs to be reloaded. I paid 250/- and got it reloaded but still the issue was not resolved. Now there is a new problem. When I start the phone, it appears that it is rebooting but there is absolutely nothing on the screen. The screen is completely blank and black. The strange part is that, it keep vibrating after every minute or so which makes me feel that it is caught in a boot loop but nothing is displayed on the screen. The Service center guys says that there could either be a display issue or motherboard issue and in both cases, the hardware cost would be more. But I feel it is a software issue.
I again googled it and got to a page https://firmwarefile.com/micromax-e471 where I downloaded the firmware. The firmware folder had a file "8939_fastboot_all_images" which is a windows batch file. I installed the driver, executed the 8939_fastboot_all_images batchfile and went to the recovery screen I got from Power+VolumeUp key combination. Selected reboot to bootloader. I got lot of things in the ms-dos window but still the problem is unresolved.
I appreciate if someone here could help me what to do next.
Thanks
Something wrong with the mount points, maybe? Have you tried flashing a custom recovery like TWRP?

I cannot do anything with a screen with no display.
Can you tell me how to flash a custom recovery when the phone is in boot loop
Thanks
Your phone seems to have a Snapdragon SOC. Sorry but I'm pretty much useless with that. If it was an mtk you could have removed the battery and use SP Flash tool. Maybe someone else can help you with this.
Good luck.

First, dont post something like "bump", you can get ban.
2nd, if you cant flash, this tool may have. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71705583&postcount=5
This is only one tool can flash rom in this situation. If it not work, it could be hardware issue, not software.
Edit: after install qualcomn usb driver, make sure your phone is turn off, hold volume down button while plug usb cable (some phone need volume up, some need both of them, some doesnt need any button). Remember dont touch power button. If pc detect your phone like Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader, you can using emmc.

First of all ToolStudio eMMC Download Tool link does not work. I downloaded the 50MB+ zip file and extracted, it asks for a password which I already put but it doesnt do anything.
Then I downloaded a downgraded version from here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B7SVwjaFGLv_by1OSlMtaU9tQVE but it does not work. mMMC Download or Multil Download does not show RAM, Boot Image etc. The comments on that page also shows that there are so many people who are unable to do it. Do you know of a reliable download source for ToolStudio eMMC Download Tool?
Or do you have any other solution?
Thanks
AM also facing that problem with e471
Always showing flashing successfully .
But booting into recovery mode..
Need solution dear

"soft-bricked" Essential Phone

Originally posted by: Azpre
Hello
A while ago, I tried to root my Essential Phone using magisk. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed twrp, but when I tried to install the magisk zip file, it failed, and I was stuck in a bootloop.
Easy problem to solve right? I wiped everything from my phone (including the ROM), downloaded a stock ROM (.ZIP file, and I think that’s what ****ed everything up) and when I tried to install it, it failed once again. Therefore, I downloaded another stock ROM file (this time as a .img file) and tried to installed it.
But what I ended up doing, was installing some other .img file as the boot image (on twrp), and after that, my phone kept restarting endlessly. I couldn’t access the recovery mode (if I tried to press the vol down + start buttons, or just the start button, the process would repeat, so I leaved my phone there until it run out of battery, now its off).
I was despaired and tried to search every inch of the internet for a solution, and obviously, I could not find it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks for your attention.
(Im not sure if this is really a soft brick, I named this thread wit my basic knowlage, sorry if Im wrong)
