[BRICKED] Need help!! Alcatel One Touch S'Pop (4030x) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, new to the forum, but been reading for a while now.
I need some help with my gf's device which i got messed.. So here is the problem:
Device: Alcatel One Touch S'Pop (4030x)
Carrier: Globul(Bulgarian)
Root: YES
SU Status: Installed SuperSU
Stock firmware: latest ver of Android JB 4030x modded for globul
Recovery: Selfmade CWM.
So the problem is that the device was stock and sim locked by carrier globul, what i was trying to do is root inastall cust recovery and install new rom, hoping that this will debloat the device and eventualy sim unlock it, now i am stuck with a white screen every time i try to boot it, juat after the first boot animation. Tried to go to recovery - work flawlessly. Tried re-installing the custom ROM several times with no luck.. Here is what i done:
Rooted with VRoot, then installed CWM recovery via MTK Droid Root & Tools, all worked fine, the stock (rooted) ROM booted with no problems at all (restarted couple o times)
Then i downloaded to my SD the last version of GE-Rom from MXDevelopers blog and tried to flash it via recovery, following their guide(only difference that i used CWM instead of TWRP) everything went well and nice, then i pressed "Reboot device now" option in the recovery and it rebooted, shown the 1st bootlogo and than that white screen (ofdeath) and it doesn't do anything except when i press volume down and hold it, it vibrates as when you switch silent mode on with the vol keys, also i noticed that the power button works as supposed (locks unlocks).
What i need to do is getting a custom rom working on the device, or at least a stock (non globul) rom working on it..
I tried to flash thru recovery the X9 ROM in hope it will do the job but null... I tried several times to install and re install the rom with no succes so far. What i am thinking is that i somehow damaged the boot image ( i havent touched it but i dont know if the custom rom had tried to modify it. )
Please help!!
Will click the thanks button, i promise

If anything in the given information is unclear, just ask and i will clear it for you, or in case i haven't given enough info on something..
C'mon guys.. Why nobody posting ? I followed the help request guide, i made clear what the problem is and i've given all the information that is avail. ...

[Q] help: alcatel 4030x bricked

Hi there !!
Hello everybody and thanks in advance for your help.
I was trying to clean my phone (sim unlocked via imei) of the vendor stuff (yoigo spain), and put a clean rom instead.
First I rooted my device with framaroot method and everyhing was ok. Then, after clean the rom of some unwanted apps (alcatel radio, alcatel power save, etc..) I tried to change the bootanimation, but deleted part of the /system part (build.prop) and on the next reboot the phone was bricked
I read all the thread about developing (Alcatel One Touch 4030x S'POP Development), and everybody say the method to recover is under OTU (one touch upgrade), but when I try it the answer is I have already the latest version and won't upgrade.
I tried all I imagined: wipeing partitions, deleting /system, installing CWM and TWRP, but no sucess..
I tried then to readback my phone, following the post of Cyberangel22k & johnnyspritz on post #204, but still bricked ..
Now when I boot I have 2 animations from manufacturer: alcatel glory2 + alcatel s'pop, the vendor logo (yoigo spain) and after that darkness ..
Please, help me to unbrick. Any help will be apreciated
thanks in advance and greetings from Barcelona (spain)
Take it to Yoigo. I had the same problem, I took it to a Yoigo store, told them I hadn't been even able to test my new phone since it won't start, they sent it to repair service, two weeks later my phone was given back to me good as new.

[Q] Allwinner clone. Soft bricked: black screen, reboot loop, recovery corrupted!

Hi I have an Allwinner A10 clone (Kurio 7), it is designed for kids but otherwise a standard android tablet.
After hours of googling I rooted and installed CWM & Gapps (not included in the stock ROM). So far so good.
The stock ROM was causing issues with some apps, it needed to go.
I flashed CM10 and it worked but no touch screen. It needed a compatibility flash to make it work. You can guess what's coming. I picked the wrong one and now the device does the following:
Reboot loop
Black screen (backlight though)
PWR+Vol up no longer gets to recovery
Vibrates constantly between reboots (due to wrong patch I'm guessing)
ADB picks up the device for a split second between reboots but "adb reboot recovery" does nothing. Even when using wait command.
Tried "fastboot flash recovery cwm.img" after wait command, no luck.
Is there anything else I can try?
I fixed this.
I used the GoClever TAB A73 ROM and instructions in their support/update/download area.
Sorry I cannot post links as I am still a newbie.
Anyway flashing using Livesuit this fixed the problem.

Hi, can you please share with me how you manage to unbrick your Kurio 7. I had just bricked mine trying to install CM10.
Thanks.

I guess this is the site he is refering to:
http://www.goclever.com/uk/support,c3/software-update,a28.html?aic=5&aia=185&ail=10
The LiveSuit pack is there for download, as well as the roms.
But there are three different 4.0 roms to choose from, and also a couple of 2.3 roms. I dont know which one he did use.
Since your Kurio 7 is bricked anyway, I guess you can try one by one and see if any of them work.
Please tell which one, if you succeed.

Phone stuck on Samsung logo

I have tried everything on YouTube videos and on other forums, and nothing has worked so far... This is what has happened:
1) I flashed a custom font zip file, which I later realised was only for the HTC One M8
2) As phone rebooted, got stuck at the "glowing" Samsung logo (the 3rd one, after the model number and the jingle)
3) Phone stuck at that logo, have tried LOADS OF METHODS and nothing has worked
Please help!
PS - I am new to these things and have rarely "dabbled" in this kind of stuff, all I've done so far (which worked fine) is root my phone, install CWM Recovery, install a modded version of Android 4.3 (?) which was designed to make your phone run faster (which it did). Please help! Have I broken my phone?! :crying:
Search for the latest stock ROM for your phone on sammobile.com and flash the ROM using Odin.
Some good info here too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/samsung-galaxy-s3-sticky-roll-thread-t2344125

Phone won't boot after updating SuperSU

I need help immediately cause I am paniking. So I rooted my phone using the KingRoot application, and after the root was succesful used SuperSu-Me to remove KingRoot. SuperSu-Me installed SuperSU on my device which in turn had to install an update, so I let it do its thing. After the update was installed SuperSU prompted me to reboot my phone so i did. Problem is the phone has been stuck for about half an hour in the shifting shapes screen, fastboot doesn't work. I have tried hard reseting it but the problem persists.

First, please don't follow instructions you're finding on this specific forum since it's for the OnePlus X, not the Starmobile. Secondly you needed to unlock your bootloader first, since you didn't from the sounds of it you can't boot into Android since it's now tampered. You'll need to boot into recovery, usually by pressing Power + Volume Down until it loads and factory reset your device.

Try to find out your solution in your device's forums, since this forums is for the OnePlus X and not the Starmobile Knight Luxe.
If your device is stuck on the bootup screen, you need to go to fastboot mode, unlock the bootloader (if you haven't), flash a custom recovery, boot into the recovery, and factory reset the device. It should work.
Guys!!! Thank you for all your suggestions. I did flash a custom recovery but it fails simultaneously. I just let it fix on a local phone repair shop just paid a few bucks

Softbricked my Lava R1s - Please help!!!

Hi,
I couldn't figure out where to ask this query since I couldn't find anything regarding my phone. I own a Lava_R1s with StarOS V3.3 with Android Version 6.0. This is a phone available specifically in the U.A.E market since its made without camera and GPS so that it can be used in the oil field.
I tried to root the phone and now its soft bricked. I can enter fastboot mode and recovery mode (TWRP) but every time i try to switch on the phone it keeps going into a loop of the "Lava Powered by android" and switches off and then continues to keep doing that.
Here is what i did.
1. I used fastboot to unlock the OEM.
2. Then I flashed TWRP as recovery for the mobile.
3. After that i installed SuperSU zip file.
After all these steps my phone refuses to start up. It just comes to the LAVA powered by android screen and stays on that screen till i press the power button.
Further more I tried flashing the boot and system with Stock ROM files downloaded from needrom.com. That hasn't helped. In fact the looping of the initial screen started after flashing boot and system files (I used img files for Lava R1 Lite since those where the only ones i could find).
Would be really grateful if anyone could provide me a solution for this issue.
Another thing is that a lot of my colleagues have the same phone, so if there is anyway to extract the rom from their phone and install on mine without actually rooting their device it would also work for me i guess.

I had the same problem , and I fixed it.
When you install the TWRP for some reason the data partition get corrupted to resolve this you need to do the following :
---- before you do any thing capture the following information and keep it ----
IMEI , Barcode, Modem Version, Bluetooth MAC , WIFI MAC address
IMEI, barcode and Modem Version details can be found in the factory mode:
- switch your phone off
- Press power button and volume down -- you will boot into factory mode
- from the menu select version ( scroll using volume down button ) click power button
you should see BB chip details, MS Board, etc
note down the following into a paper or to your computer and keep it ( in my case it was useful when I changed the rom)
1- IMEI numbers
2- Modem Version ( Baseband version)
3- barcode number ( I found this info only in this menu)
for the (Bluetooth and WIFI) MAC address you need to boot into your phone and go to settings , scroll down to About phone ( in my case I need to click to More) , then click on Status
you will found ( also you can found the IMEI information it should match what you capture above)
1- Bluetooth MAC address
2- WIFI MAC address
now you have everything you need to format your mobile in case that was needed.
---- Note the following steps will wipe your contacts and reset the phone settings, data on your SD card should not be effected -------------
To root your mobile do the following:
1- install TWRP using SP_Flash
2- copy SuperSU to your SD card
3- reboot to recovery (into TWRP)
if you install SuperSU, now you should notice that it didn't complete and there are some errors for that you need to fix the data partition before install SuperSU
4- click wipe, click Advanced Wipe
5 - select Data and Click on "Repair or Change File System"
if its corrupted the size should be 0 to fix it continue step 6
6- Click change File system and change it to EXT4
7- Wipe to Change it should format the partition for you
when complete check the size of the partition is not 0
if its still 0 " Click Repair File System" in menu of step 5
now you are ready to install SuperSU

Please tell me how to troubleshoot my software update error in my LAVA R1s non camera Android phone. The software update notification keeps on popping up. And when I click on the notification update then I get the following error saying " Not enough memory. Update needs atleast (109.82mb)". I even have hard resetted the phone but I still get the same update error later on once it gets completely resetted. As soon as it gets connected to internet data connectivity I get the pop ups for software update. How do I get rid of the same.
