Can't you put it on external SD card?
How come fastboot not detected, have you used it on that PC before?

Is it a USB 3 port, AFAIK those don't work with fastboot/flash mode.
Yes it's a big problem most of recoveries do not have working USB storage and adb

[Q] Brick LWW (wt19) HELP PLEASE!!!

Hi, first of all, sorry about my english. I think it's terrible.
I have a SE WT19 stuck on FXP bootloop.
I had installed a custom kernel, but i guess i did something wrong.
At first, my cellphone is on bootloop (in some custom ROMs) or just on black screen.
So, i tried to flash a new kernel with flashtool, or a stock Rom with PCCompanion, but my device is not recognized by Windows 7.
Also is not recognized by Linux, or Mac.
The kernel that bricked my LWW was wt19i-live-rage2.7-kernel-for-fxp-cm7.
There is something possible to bring it alive again?
Ever uninstall and install all drivers and tried in another pc, aways shows the same message.
"One of the USB devices attached to this computer is not working properly, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message." :crying: :crying:

First of all its not bricked..there are several information missing.Is your phone rooted & boot loader unlocked?With which rom did u try FXP kernel?Chech if u have the latest flashtool installed. Then go to driver folder & download the latest drivers. Connect ur phone in fastboot mode it should install the necessary drivers

My phone was rooted and unlooked bootloader. I tried ALL CM7/9/10 roms posted in the xda development forum. I have the latest flashtool installed, also the latest drivers. When I connect my phone in fastboot or in flash mode, nothing happens,, cause my pc (and flashtool) do not recognize the device.
Okay but what happens when u connect ur phone to pc while pressing vol up button(without running flashtool)?does the blue led show & pc doesn't recognize it?if yes then go to device manager on my computer & see whats the problem with ur device,try installing it from there.Another question,can u get into CWM?

When I press Up, turns on the blue led.
When I press Down, turns on the green led.
Device Manager displays: Unknow Device, and say I'm using the latest drivers, and something about Code 43 wrong.
I can get into CWM.
Nice then ur phone is perfectly okay :good:
just try another pc
or
unistall all related to ur device(flashtool,drivers,android sdk,pc companion,google usb) & reinstall.If that even don't work I suggest u to do a fresh install of windows.
See if it's a problem with the USB port. Are other devices connected to that port recognized? Some of the USB ports in the old PC at my home keep showing that message whatever I connect to it

Might be the phone's micro USB port is faulty???

The phone doesn't seem to be bricked. Try using Flashtool on another computer. Make sure you do have those fastboot drivers(when you first connect your phone to Flashtool in fastboot mode, Flashtool gives you a notification that drivers need to be installed for the device. I confirm that the ones provided in C:\Flashtool\drivers work for LWW )
(Always make sure the kernel is compatible with the ROM you're trying to flash)
Start with the stock kernel(the one provided inside the CM7/CM9 zip - boot.img). Then flash the relevant ROM and see what happens. Once that works fine, start tinkering with various kernels out there.
Don't worry, it's just a soft brick
I haven't bricked my WT19 yet but I did soft brick my former X8 and Someone else's Galaxy something...
What I can advise you do is flash the whole stock .ftf ROM from Sony, just search for the 4.1.B.0.587 firmware, flash it and start from scratch.
About your pc not recognizing your phone: how then did you flash the kernel?? Do have the Sony PC Companion installed on your machine? I have it just for the driveers, I know Flashtool comes with them but I rather have the offiicial somethimes... I think MediaGo also comes with them.
Anyhow, I hope you can get your phone working. Let us know how it went

Micro USB port works fine too.
Hi guys,
All tests done.
Other pc, or OS, do not recognize my device.
Tried another notebook, tried another windows version, another Linux and MacOS, nothing works!!
So, this process of kernel change could cause some hardware damage?
I really can't change the kernel in cwm recovery?
Just to recall, I can change the battery, got the phone in fasboot/flash mode, got CWM working, install new ROM but, or finish with bootloop or with black screen.

i traied it so many time but laptop does not recognize my phone as xperia u so it do not connect in ither flashboot or fastboot mode. and i installed all drivers which are neccessory. :
Have you tried installing drivers with flashtool?
Have you got access to a linux distro? because thats how I was able to connect my bricked xperia go in fastboot mode.
Maybe try unistalling your drivers and reinstalling them.
ok you need to tell me what os are you using and what rom did you try to flash does your phone light up when you connect it in fastboot if so its a drivers problem you should see if drivers are installed correctly if its correct then change your cable and the usb hub and try again Thanking me is always better than saying thanx

IF your phone doesn't boot you'll need to use USB cable and flashtool or fastboot to recover, but since your usb port is broken i guess there's nothing you can do sorry
I would send the phone to sony service to get the usb port fixed...
Edit: one more thing, candy rom is not stock based and requires an unlocked bootloader, if you didn't unlock your BL before flashing that's why you bricked.... but you could still recover if your phone usb port worked.

Flashing any stock rom should fix your kernel problem now either flash a .ftf with flashtool, or try recovering your phone in sony pc companion.
I prefer flashtool for flashing as i never had problems with it and it's easy to set-up and work.

Humm weird, try flashtool once again, maybe with another .ftf or another pc, select all wipes, choose flashmode, make sure your phone is completely powered-off, when flashtool asks to connect just keep pressing volume down and plug the usb cable. flashing should start fine now.

Nope after 1 minute flash mode turns off automatically soo now here is what I did
Step 1 downloaded sony c s
Step 2 installed supprot
Step3 press update device without contcing to pc
Step 4 chose repair
Step 5 go with it and put it in flash mode
Step 6 before it finishs it will take a long time
Then it will only charge you can't press the power button for some reason
Step 7 go to flash tool start flash mode and it will reboot automatically
Step8 you will be in safe mode go to settings and format the phone
Step 9 it will reboot and into normal mode
Step 10 root through king root and termanil to make it a real root not temporarliy
Step 11 enable usb debugging and install recovery
Step 12 copy the rom from pc to recovery
Step 13 installed the rom everything is amazing except for one problem
I still can't press the power button I don't think it's hardware help me
That's it thanks for everything tell me if you know anything about the power button
@Sal7_one Wow that was way more complicated than it should but i'm glad your phone is working again :good:
Did you open your phone to fix the usb port? or did you send it somewhere? unfortunately the power button situation does seem like hardware problem...

troubleshooting to connect the phone to the PC

Hi all,
by cons for several weeks I've a concern with my redmi Note 2 and I can't find the answer to my problem on the forum or even the Internet.
Since the last update 7.2.2 (global) I have the Recovery MIUI who crushed the TWRP. I changed to test 6.3.17. The update to the .24 went wrong and I don't know why. Since the phone is bootloop. But the problem is that my phone is not recognized by any PC. I tried several PCs, several cables, several drivers, with or without the Fastboot, unable to connect. Therefore impossible to load a new version. I don't think it's material problem because the phone recharge well with a cable to the socket.
Is there another handling or debug decision to restart the phone? I'm in France for information.
thank you in advance if you can point me to a solution !
Hope someone can help me.
Manu
Can the phone boot to miui recovery? If so, you should be able to use miui recovery to flash TWRP (I think you will need one with a signed install zip). You only need to take out the external SD, put it in one of those cheap USB card readers, copy your recovery and ROM to the SD, put it back in the phone, flash TWRP with miui recovery, and then flash the ROM with TWRP (I am assuming that miui recovery can install things from the external SD - if not, then none of this will work).
Hi Bro,
Yes it boot in MIUI recovery but impossible to get access to the SD Card...
I tried to put the file on the SD card but you can't choose the path, I think the recovery will look only in the internal memory ... And as I can't access the internal memory..
I despair !!
Thanks o lot for your help

Ok - but have you tried the Mediatek SP Flash Tool?
Of course yes but the real problem is that the phone is not recognized by the PC and therefore can't load anything ...
Even changing drivers or cables or PC, nothing to do.

So, when the battery is removed, and you connect the USB cable, the phone is not even vibrating (and making that weird sound) every couple of seconds or so?

Well, then it is very strange that you can't use the SP Flash Tool. If the phone vibrates, then the device is recognised, and you should be able to flash anything you want with the SP Flash Tool! How exactly were you trying to use the Flash Tool?
I tried so many solutions I really don't know exactly how I used the software.
I will again try everything.
But against any changes when I look in the USB settings of the PC, the phone doesn't appear.
I try again just now, thank you for your help.

With the SP Flash Tool, all you need is the correct "scatter" file (MT6795_Android_scatter.txt), and the image(s) that you want to flash. If the phone is vibrating, then the SP Flash Tool should be able to connect to it when you click "Download". Just make sure that you first untick everything that you do NOT want to flash. I would try flashing the boot image (boot.img) first. If that succeeds, then try the TWRP recovery image.
Ok. I'm going to try again with "http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=196175&highlight=sp%2Btool%2Bflash%2Bredmi%2Bnote%2B2"

Strange! I am assuming that when you connect the phone with the USB cable, the battery has been removed from the phone? If so, then it should work.
Perhaps you should try first connecting the phone, and then waiting until it has vibrated once or twice, before clicking the "Download" button?
Yes I removed battery before connect the phone to PC. I tried also with battery and nothing changed.
I even changed the cable to be sure.
Which seems to me most strange is that I see nothing in the device manager, as if the phone wasn't connected. Whatever the installed driver is the same result. I think it should at least have the phone on the COM or USB port ...
I will try again this night to be sure with all steps one by one. And I will also try with ACER tablet I and runs Android 5.1. Maybe it will be recognized.
Otherwise I also tried to pass a Linux PC as a last resort.
Thanks again for your help.

Yes, it should. The fact that the phone vibrates when connected indicates that the PC and phone are communicating - but it may well be that a low-level driver in the phone has been overwritten (which may mean that this is a lost cause). A final idea - can miui recovery access usbotg?
Hum good question. In fact I don't know. I'll ask the MIUI forum.
I got home late from work so I don't do tests tonight, I'd see it all tomorrow including the connection with my tablet ...
Thanks

Hi,
I tried to connect with an Acer Tablet with Android 5.1.1 but nothing appends...
I tried also with a Linux PC (Debian) and if I can see a Samsung A3 phone dirrectly, no way for my Redmi Note 2...
There really I despair : I think I can't access any of the phone. Can't do anything !
If you have any other solution but you help me a lot already, and thanks for that.
Can be a micro crack on the USB plug into the phone if it's not a software problem ... Let's go for it apart and look at this ...
Thanks again bro.

I don't think it is a crack on the USB plug. It seems to me to be a low-level driver problem - ie, the drivers on the phone that are active when the phone is not (fully) booted up. I don't have the right terminology for these drivers, but they are possibly part of the bootloader. If that is the problem, then I don't know how you would solve this problem.

Bricked, my PC doesn't detect phone.

Hello everyone, i need help.
I have tried to root samsung galaxy s3. I was using Odin and it failed :/
Now i can only enter download mode on phone but my PC doesn't detect phone at all. I will try tomorrow other PC and other USB cable, but do you guys have any advice that can help me?
I have installed fresh Win 7, USB drivers and i have tried few versions of Odin and Kies too (it doesn't detect phone either).

If download mode works , then the problem is the usb cable or the samsung driver on the PC , here is the lastest driver , If ODIN 3.10.7 detects the device try to flash TWRP-3.0.2-0 TAR as AP , if it worked reboot in recovery and the rest is up to you witch rom you gonna flash , note this is for custom roms only like CyanogenMod
Thank mate Installed TWRP and CM13, everyhing works well Changed USB cable and managed to get phone detected, quality USB cable makes difference.

Hi, I have a similar situation, no power, no charge, no download mode, I even connect the USB jig and nothing. Everything happened when trying to restore boot with CWM. After reboot the phone went to hard brick state

Well the battery is discharged , that's why it doesn't boot , There must be something wrong or with the charger or with the usb cable , most of the time is the cable , after you manage to boot , try to flash TWRP instead CWM

Thanks for your prompt reply.
I tested the cable and charger in other phones and they work fine. In the other hand the S3 was at 30% by the time I restarted it and never came back to life. Also when I connect it to the PC there is no sign of the S3 on the device manager.
