Hi,
I made a fudge... I had a couple of the bootloader flash files in the same download folder - long story short, I thought I was updating radios/firmware and it turns out I downgraded. Everything said "Ok" during the process, but after the reboot, I'm bricked. No lights, no response, Windows shows it as the Qsomething-or-another mode.
Is there any way to fix this - or do I have to take it into the store? I have TEP, but I'm afraid of what to say when they ask me what happened, since I have already customized my bootloader, unlocked via HTC Dev Unlock, etc.
Any pointers?

I tried this, and Terminal tells me that the phone is not found... and I confirmed through their IRC support chat page that this tool only works for bricks caused by their tool. Mine was caused by a firmware flash.
I was not sure thats why I said I would wait till someone would confirm. would you do stuff makes sure your usb plug in is plugged into the read of the computer where the usb plug is plugged into the motherboard not by a extension that goes to the front of the computer makes a bif difference in stuff like this.

You could look into this thread a little just some again this is something different but I not sure what the unbricker really does its a file ported over from the htc one x phone that worked on the htc evo lte since it iis very simular phone
So I had Cyanogenmod 10 on my tf201 with clockwork recovery. In the Dev page there is a new Rom for PA for the 201. I did exactly as it said and factory reset, wiped cache, ect then installed PA and GAAPS. Problem is Im stuck at the splash screen on boot now and I DONT HAVE ANY OTHER ROM LOADED ON THE MEMORY. CMW recover doesnt recoginise micro sd cards and no matter what i try that PA rom wont load. So now I feel I have a very expencise paper weight and I'm dieing of worry here. PLEASE any help in this issue would be much appreciated!

If you are using cwm chances are you are on the ics bootloader. To check look where the nvidia logo is when you turn it on. If it is bottom center it is ics, bottom right is jb.
Now go to the twrp thread and then to their website and get twrp for your bootloader (prob ics) and flash in fastboot. Now you can flash from external sd.

Thanks flumpster! I ended up finding an emergency file transfer that uses fastboot. You're solution would have been simpler but in the end its back up and running with a JB bootloader and rom now :victory:

Never mind, easy find.
Fixed, but newbie question
I reverted back to CM10 by pushing a the ROM in adb.
I was hoping to try things over, but as a newbie I am not sure how (really, when) to install the bootloader necessary for 4.2.
I know baked bean requires the offical firmware from ASUS, which I have, but when do I install it, before or after the ROM?

Flash the ASUS JB rom first. it should update your bootloader and allow you to boot custom JB roms from then on.
Thanks. If I install the ASUS firmware will I will lose root?

Hey guys,
I need a creative solution to restore my phone to stock for warranty claim. My USB does not work so I don't have the usual option of using Odin.
I thought I had found a solution with Mobile Odin but whenever I try to run, it mentions it is not compatible with my device. I am currently on Hyperdrive 17.1 via SS.
Thanks

If you are on NC5 I have a nandroid backup of a stock NC5 image that only has root. I could give you a link to my dropbox that has the zip and you could flash through safestrap then unroot, etc.... I imagine that would work. Up to you if you want to try it. Just let me know cuz I'm gonna have to boot into it myself and remove all my contacts and everything.

Yes it should work, generally you don't want to use nandroids from another phone of course, but if he's just doing it to return to stock for warranty, it should be enough to get it to boot, etc.

There you go. You should be able to download these files and put the in extsd/TWRP/backup/d.......
And "restore" in safestrap. You will then need to remove safestrap, supersu, and towel root apps and unroot. You may be able to unroot through supersu but I'm not sure. I hope this works for you...keep me posted so I can delete the dropbox folder if it works. Ill be deleting the folder in a day or two anyway just in case. The files are good but I assume no risk if something does go wrong as I've never done anything like this before...you should be OK though.
You may need to flash this https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358539843 for WiFi also.
Great. Well i have downloaded all files onto my SD in the directory mentioned...
When i go into SS to restore, nothing appears. Any idea?
Try making a folder called 'stock' or something in extsd/TWRP/backups/d...... And moving everything to the new folder.

This is an NC5 flashable zip, just install in safestrap as you normally would. It may just be a ROM but I can't remember. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mth9zpmxqg75jgc/VRUFNC5_Rooted_Stock-v2.zip?dl=0
You should be able to unroot and everything. Let me know how it goes.
try replacing usb port
I started fixing phones (mainly iDonts because screens are a LOT cheaper), but I've replaced a usb port on an s4 active and it took me less than 10 minutes start to finish (for your first time I would watch the youtube video a few times and take as much time as needed, and btw fridge magnets work great for not losing screws)
the part should be $10 to $20 with shipping on amazon, and tool kit is less than $5 (the part might come with tools, look in description)
just search youtube "how to replace usb galaxy s4"
the usb port (and attatched flex cable) is not carrier specific, however, it probably differs from the s4 active and mini, and unfortunately don't have one to see if it is, so be sure to look out for that. The procedure IS different between S4 active, S4 mini, regular S4 so be sure you're watching a how to video on the right model
if you need any help with this, reply to this thread or pm and i will help you out.
Unless you have very shakey hands and/or can't see those small screws, I am confident you can do it, for not much has to come apart to replace the usb. The hardest part is the flex cable connection to the motherboard, but if you disconnect it with a PLASTIC tool, you greatly reduce risk of damage, so use plastic. A magnifier may help to see what you're doing, especially when fitting the new cable connection
Good luck!
edit: just looked back n saw the part about warranty. Well, I'm pretty sure you can get away with this, if it is a defective usb port. Those long samsung cables go bad after awhile so try another one (if you knew that already, disregard) and make sure verizon doesn't claim misuse (i.e. forced cable upside down; I used to work for them, they wouldn't replace phones for that reason but that was almost 4 years ago) just maybe try and make it look well taken care of if going warranty route. I am still pretty sure there are no void stickers on any screws, but I can check as soon as I figure out how to get safestrap back after forgetting to flash supersu after Hyperdrive rls19. I miss mdk...wish i didn't break that $180 display, I went with $100 Asurion claim (btw it was a brand new replacement, so any void stickers would be there)
Anyways, hope this helps, reply if need more, and good luck!

If I'm not mistaken, that logo can only be removed with an Odin .tar full wipe, for that custom lock shows up when anything to the ROM is changed, which it still may be. Locked bootloader means anything before the safestrap logo is locked (i think). I may be full wiping via odin today for I need to get root again, so I can let ya know if it gets rid of that.
Obviously I'm still a newb to xda, but I've been rooting for few years now, so keep that in mind. Just tryin to get my thx count up so I can actually post things lol. But if I am wrong about ANY of this, I am open to any criticism (so long as not rude and quick explaination why)
Hope this helps
Edit: maybe try flashing that zip again, but wiping system first? But if you lost safestrap I'm not sure how that is possible

Hello, I am new as a poster on these forums, but not new as a visitor, but I thought I would have the best luck asking around here. So basically I was being stupid and on my HTC One M8, which has been rooted for some time, I wanted to put the 5.0.1 GPE Skydragon on. I had been trying to get S-off in the past, but it had failed. Today I tried again, but still wouldn't get past first bottle. Either way I was impatient and misinterpreted a tutorial someone had created, implying you already had S-Off. I though that would be a later step and this was a different method, so I tried to flash the ROM with S-On, and things went downhill from there. I could make my phone vibrate by using the volume buttons, but a dark screen that displayed nothing. I was able to access my boot loader and TWRP, so I know the screen isn't kill. When inside of TWRP, I clicked on system cache along with Davlik and other ones, so it screwed my system no also. Also, if I plug it into my computer the internal sd and external sd do appear, so that's good. But in recap I am stuck where I can only access TWRP and boot menu, and because my S is on, I cant seem to flash anything nor get past it. Please help, my phone is vital especially in Finals Week.
The best way to recover is to flash a RUU...I do not have links for you, but I have been here for a few months. I've heard when problems exist, the best thing to do is flash a RUU...I might be completely wrong, but give wonder_never_cease a pm. He's a very knowledgeable person.

As instructed above if unable to boot into bootloader to flash a custom recovery and pushing a custom rom to phone,flash the ruu thats for your software build you had prior to this fiasco,patience is a virtue eh...lol...

This same situation gets asked several times a day.
Just restore the nandroid you made. If you didn't make one, than that is a mistake I suggest you never repeat ever again.
If no nandroid, you just need to flash a ROM (either by adb sideloader, adb push, mount memory in recovery, or put on removable SD). A ROM that matches you current firmware will avoid the long boot times and broken WiFi that are symptomatic of a firmware mismatch. You haven't posted enough info for us to know what firmware you are on (hboot and radio number).

The issue has been resolved after a stressful weekend, there was a droid news article that worked for me, so the RUU method worked in the end. Thanks anyway!
Here's the deal,
1. I was on resurrection remix 7.1 custom rom with TWSRP recovery installed.
2. Wanted to go back to stock huawei honor 5x OS so I downloaded it on the internet, since I live in Malaysia, I searched for "Huawei Honor 5x Stock Rom Malaysia Variant"
3. Flash the rom, got EMUI 2.0 instead of the written EMUI 3.1 on the file (the file name is KIW-L22_C636B130_Firmware_Android 5.1_EMUI 3.1_Malaysia.zip"
4. Flashed HONOR_5X_Firmware_KIW-L22_Android 6.0.1_EMUI 4.0.1_C675B360CUSTC675D002.zip that I got from huawei's website
5. Stuck in bootloop.
6. I went into TWRP recovery and tried to do something but I couldn't use the touchscreen for some odd reason
7. Went and browsed XDA for around 2 hours and found that I can install another recovery that uses the volume buttons and the power buttons to navigate, thus I installed a recovery called "carliwm touch recovery"
8. Was happy could finally do something, successfully flashed the recovery. Went and downloaded Lineage OS rom based on my mistakes that I've done and never want to go back to stock rom.
9. The recovery has an option to mount the external sd card (my sd card in my phone, dont know why it's called as such), so I did, I still couldn't navigate using the touchscreen as it's disfunctional still but can still navigate using volume and power buttons.
10. Wiped all data, flashed Lineage OS, flashed GAPPS.
11. Stuck in recovery for some reason, can't get into my phone. I've re-flashed it many times
For those who want to know my phone model, it's KIW-L22. When it had stock rom it was EMUI 4 something, can't remember as it's very vague. I think it was marshmallow
Please help
EDIT:
I use Huawei Update Extractor to get into the stock rom that had EMUI 2.0, extracted the System and Recovery images
Used this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoZQHTidnGA&t=629s ) to flash back to stock rom that had EMUI 2.0
The only way to get out of the recovery is to reboot the phone
In the bootloader, it says "PHONE Unlocked" and "FRP Unlock"
UPDATE:
I've tried to follow the video again and re-flashed the stock rom with EMUI 2.0 and it still doesn't work
I've wiped everything in the phone using the recovery (wiped data and factory reset), going to sleep as it's 4:37 AM
This is what happens when you dont read the guides that are posted all over this forum, we have seen it so many times I have lost count and also the inclination to help sort out the mess, I would never ever in my life download any firmware that wasn't posted on XDA or flash a phone without reading guides on here first as they usually not only give the correct information but usually point to the correct firmware.

Your touchscreen isn't working and your getting a bootloop because you probably have the wrong boot.image this is clealy the case as your touch screen isn't working, if you search through my guides for al10 which i cant be bothered to get the link for now one of them has a link to a twrp image of what i rhink is l22, anyway its a twrp image, you can flash that using twrp and it should restore your phone, good luck

This is for the AL10 but should be of use to you, download the twrp image, you will need to make a backup first of your phone then follow the instructions, you cant restore using a update.app as you have wrecked the system image and ruined the version check so this is your best hope to reatore tour phone and install lineage, good luck

This is for the AL10 but should be of use to you, download the twrp image, you will need to make a backup first of your phone then follow the instructions, you cant restore using a update.app as you have wrecked the system image and ruined the version check so this is your best hope to reatore tour phone and install lineage, good luck

In your case tick everything including modem But dont tick EFS

Your touchscreen isn't working and your getting a bootloop because you probably have the wrong boot.image this is clealy the case as your touch screen isn't working, if you search through my guides for al10 which i cant be bothered to get the link for now one of them has a link to a twrp image of what i rhink is l22, anyway its a twrp image, you can flash that using twrp and it should restore your phone, good luck

So there's no hope for me? If I were to send it to a phone repair shop, it won't do anything?

Then you will need to use adb to flash the boot partition, you have a major job on your hands which will be especially difficult for a noob, this is why its best to read the guides !

is this website trustable? https://android.****************/ho...actory-images-android-using-fastboot-0175277/ as a guide
huh nevermind, its censored, then do you have any idea how to flash the boot partition?
This will be my last instructions then the rest is down to you..
Download minimal adb and unzip it
Download Huawei extractor tool
Download stock update.apo for any honor 5x
Use huawei extractor and open update.app with it
Extract boot.img
Place e boot.img in minimal adb folder
Download hiapp from web
Install hiapp
Plug phone into computer in adb mode
Open adb command window
Type adb devices to check its there
Type fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then install twrp
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img "or whatever file name it is"
No fastboot reboot recovery
Now install lineage
Now hit the thanks button and write a guide on why guides are important

boy i wish i read those guides. Okay I got into e-recovery and im using the power buttons to navigate through the menu, I use my power button to select the "Download latest version and recovery." and got into the wifi section, pressed download recovery and its starting to Connect to Wifi. Now I'm stuck in selecting wifi. I cant even use my power buttons to choose my wifi but i can choose the back option using the volume and power keys, what do i do now?

Probably not working because boot.img is messed up, you cant have flashed it right, you only option is to try flashing each partition with the extracted files and hope it works and if it doesnt return it to a service center, im out of ideas im afraid, i flashed my boot.img before and it worked when i had no touch screen, didnt you make a backup before you messed with the phone ? Could end up being a expensive mistake, maybe try other boot.img or ask someone on here with a l24 for a copy of their boot.img but without that your screwed as it cant load the touchscreen drivers.

sorry but what's the L24? You've mentioned that for a while now. I'm using the Huawei Honor 5X, model KIW-L22, not L24. Nevertheless, does that affect what I'm doing right now?

Touchscreen doesn't work at all, can't do anything except for navigating using the power buttons

Should all be the same, all use the same cpu so drivers should all be the same, as i said I cant do any more now if erecovery isnt working and you have no touch screen after flashing boot.img your in the poop, send it to a service center
---------- Post added at 08:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:42 AM ----------
Personally i dont think you flashed the boot.img correctly but there we go
