Guys
Sorry for a new thread, but have trawled through all posts and not found one post relating to the problem I have with my XT910 Razr
I upgraded to T-Mobile leak successfully. Then the new OTA generic Europe appeared. I followed other guidelines that other users had tried and succeeded with - that is flash the boot_new.img and the system_signed from the correct SBF according to posts (which if I hadn't had the correct SBF system, would've given me a message that others have had - so I know, well - think, I have the correct one as . . .
However, and this has been doing my head in now for 2 days, I get this message
Verifying current system
assert failed: apply_patch_check
("MTD:boot:8388608:5fff8425560eb1002b467062de2b355b45090ad7:838
8608:2997ddb421e1d44b026410339e343f60b3bb65bd")
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(Status 7)
. . . etc
Now I have data wiped, cache wiped over and over again. I have a feeling it's to do with the boot_new.img posted - oh damn, don't tell me it's a CDMA patch that I've applied to GSM (maybe too much sun in England at the moment)
Anyway, first post on here after being a member for around 6 years and I am at my wits end.
If anyone could help it would be extremely appeciated
Cheers, in advance

Looks like you're trying to flash an ICS update from wrong GB.
What's the GB version you are updating from? And whats the version you're trying to flash?
Cheers
Just to be sure you got the right System_signed I'll post it again
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umt...USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml.zip
No other would work!
And this is the boot.img I've used to upgrade
http://www.mediafire.com/?rh4flyvuo5lej9w

Thanks for quick reply HSD.
Unfortunately I have also used the boot.img and also system_signed from the links you've posted.
When I've done that (applied that boot and system) and then applied the OTA (xt910_ics_4.0.4_for 2_3_6_en_eu_retail_ota_b731.zip) it doesn't even get as far as the post above - fails on update package check
Then I read another post that used
SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-167_SPU-15-M2_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml.zip
and flashed boot_new.img and system_signed (from the extract) and have got further.
And the previous error is now what I get.
The error using the M2-3 (link you've posted) is different. Says something along the lines of wrong build.prop
I would post the error but, unfortunately as my phone is currently bricked, I am charging on BP Tools.
Is there any way of flashing the boot_signed and overwrite the current one using ADB or motofastboot/eprj. I've tried and just get a Preflash error
I think i know what kind of error you mean. We got an couple of bricked phones in Germany allready. Saved some of them, but 2 Guys would stay bricked until there's a working Fastboot for ICS.

How do you flash the files?
---------- Post added at 01:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 AM ----------
Put the Files of the eprj-mfastboot (3 Files), the system signed and the boot_new.img on your desktop.
Then hit the Startbutton on windows and search for > cmd <
open it an write this commands (every line confirm with ENTER)
cd desktop
eprj-mfastboot flash boot boot_new.img
eprj-mfastboot flash system system_signed
(I use Windows 7 for this)
I've tried various ways. Standard adb fastboot, moto-fastboot, eprj-mfastboot
Same with each
. . . . flash boot boot_new.img
. . . . flash system system_signed
Then wipe data/factory reset and then recovery mode the OTA
I've even even edited the xml file in the extracted SBF so the _signed files that don't work are deleted and then ran RSD Lite with the edited SBF again - and I've also done that with Eternity's alternative flash method.
No joy with any!
Been trying for 2 and a half days now and I wouldn't be so frantic if I didn't work for myself and this is my contact number for customers!!
Hurry up and release the SBFs Moto! Although I am concerned that the boot_new.img that I've applied has screwed things up!
And your last post is the last thing I've tried.
As you've said
Put the Files of the eprj-mfastboot (3 Files), the system signed and the boot_new.img on your desktop.
Then hit the Startbutton on windows and search for > cmd <
open it an write this commands (every line confirm with ENTER)
cd desktop
eprj-mfastboot flash boot boot_new.img
eprj-mfastboot flash system system_signed
Done that and no joy. I'm wondering if I've got the correct OTA downloaded?
I think you've maybe tried to much, like the Guys here in Germany.
Unfortunately we can't do an clean flash at the moment and in Germany ICS would not released untill the Maxx is in Store (end of June). That're the latest news i've read.
I have to ask this now (experience from the last days ):
You unpacked the two Parts of the new Leak to got the right Update.zip and you're sure, that you got it on your SD and doesn't try to flash the T-Mobile Leak again?

Blur_Version.651.167.26.XT910.Retail.en.EU.part2.rar
That's the new Leak!
Two parts? I thought there was three from mediafire? Unrared all three. Is there another version I've not actually seen in the posts?
And the t-mobile is not on the SD card, so yes am flashing, well what I at least consider, the correct one (ends in b6371.zip?)
und vielen Dank soweit Freund
Downloading now thanks. Will let you know in oh, about 7 minutes apparently!

Let them in. I think the people now know about the risks by flashing this Leak.
And your Links are posted all over the world, so don't make people unhappy
I'm out now.
02:30am and to much Diablo III today.

So far so good. Looks like my fault in downloading wrong OTA.
You are a God Send (if I wasn't an atheist!). I owe you a big, big favour HSD.
Thank you very, very much my friend

When I tryed to flash MeanICS on my evo all appeared to go well until I rebooted. After rebooting I only got a black screen. I can still boot into bootloader which gives me hope. I tryed reflashing Mean and a couple of other ROMs but the problem persists. I was hoping someone may have had a simular problem and had a fix or workaround that I could try.
Thx
Check my guide I listed this exact issue in troubleshooting, if you have any questions after feel free to ask
Thank you for your help. I now understand the problem (bootloop, caused probably by the kernel) but even a full wipe using twrp I can't get any ROMs to load, and I was not thinking and didn't make a back up.
Download a ROM and verify the check sum then unzip and place the boot.img in your adb tools (or SDK depending on what you use) boot to boot loader and select fastboot (from PC terminal, sorry) type fastboot flash boot boot.img and then in recovery try to flash the ROM zip. Be sure to wipe dalvik, cache, factory reset and system first to avoid issues
---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 PM ----------
I just noticed you said black screen, that most definitely is a kernel issue but its a ROM base mismatch, you just needed to fast boot the mean kernel most likely
I had this problem literally yesterday. All you need to do is flash the boot.img located in the unzipped folder of meanrom and then flash via fast boots via pc or mac. Wipe everything first and then flash the BOOT.IMG. THEN FLASH MEAN ROM and wipe cache etc.
Sent from my EVO on CM10
Yeah I read too quickly and missed the part about the black screen. I decided it was better to outline the whole process
ok i downloaded a new rom, verified md5sum, and unzipped the rom. i also downloaded eclipse and am linking eclipse and android sdk to try and make this a little easier, i hope. i feel like such a total noob, well for the most part i am.... i guess what i am saying is that i don;t know if i am removing boot.img from zip or if i'm just checking something on the boot.img using adb
You just need adb tools, you are making this a little harder then it needs to be

If you extract the zip file and take a look to updater-script you will see that its make a copy of first 80 megabite of emmc (boot loader and some other files) that files make phone boot turn on and boot to recovery nor download mod.

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.
Beauty fades but stupid is forever...Judge Judy !

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

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.

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.

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

Dont forget to MAKE A BACKUP !
Hello I'm new to this the only phone I rooted was way back when u just had to throw some files on your phone install and your good, anyway thst being said I can't figure out how to root my phone I have a lg tribute empire (mcv1s) x220 android Oreo 8.1. I have heard you need a unlocked bootloader to do roots now however when I do try to unlock my bootloader with the platform-tools it does not boot into fast boot mode and in recovery mode it shoes unauthenicated device, no fastboot devices showing up, I feel like I should mention that I have tryed just about every ****ing driver I could find and tutorial if anyone could give me some guidance that would be great. P.S. sorry for the long type out

I don't have this device myself and there's very little (maybe 1-2) threads that discusses the LG Tribute Empire (LM-X220PM) device.
But there's some hope!
Since this device has a MediaTek MT6750 Chipset with a 64-bit Processor, you can always try to go in that direction.
The following thread would be a good start for what you are looking for...

You really don't need to keep me posted...
I had just provided you with a bit of information to help out with a boost/alternative route for what you're looking for.

sadly i dont think its possible yet
I don't know if things have changed for new MediaTek devices (regarding FRP) but i would recommend to read a lot about SP Flash Tool, especially how to make a full ROM dump (read back), what is a scatter file, and why it is important to never flash the preloader. if you get managed to install the MediaTek MT65xx USB VCOM Preloader Drivers (which works best with battery removed), you should be able to make a backup (= read back) from SP Flash Tool.
If this first step fail for some new security features (i don't know), don't go further here...
If you not absolutely sure that a scatter file is matching your partition layout, do not flash anything!
Next (non-invasive) thing is to get fastboot working. you can reboot to bootloader, which is just another name for fastboot mode. this can be done from recovery, from a working adb, or with the proper key combo. once you see the device serialno after typing "fastboot devices" you managed this step.
Then you can go over to read about Magisk. rooting with Magisk is easy, all you have to do is provide your original boot.img to the Magisk Manager, then (invasive) flash the patched_boot.img.
Before flashing, take the decision if you are willing to factory reset your device.
If yes, first disable FRP (= enable OEM unlocking). then unlock your bootloader from fastboot. This will trigger FACTORY RESET! if you are afraid about flashing, first just boot the magisk patched_boot.img from fastboot without flashing it. then you can flash your magisk patched_boot.img from fastboot, too. i will not post fastboot syntax here because it differs for (non-)A/B devices
If no, you can try to flash (= Download) magisk patched_boot.img from SP Flash Tool. This should work with locked bootloader (at least it worked for older devices). Maybe you have to remove some checksum (files, or inside scatter file, i don't know). Again, most important: Make 100% sure you use the right scatter file (a successfully magisk patched boot.img from read back is not a bullet-proof indicator, but regarding the boot(a/b) partition(s) it may sufficient)
If the rooting fail for some reason or your device is not working anymore, flash back the full ROM dump with same scatter file you used for read back. This should restore it's original state (again, do not flash preloader!)
lg tribute empire
the majisk root does sound interesting, do you think i can have a copy of the boot.img or can you post thanks, i also found build a twrp for lg mtk i might try

anyone found anything ?
You can create a boot.img with SP Flash Tool by yourself (ROM dump/readback)
a rainbow
i dont have a p.c, i just figured someone might post a boot.img or something of use for someone else
without pc you can't flash boot.img or recovery.img
i was going to flash from my spare phone witch is rooted put adb/fastboot in xbin, im not sure if it works on the mtk

theres a twrp for the lmx210ma which might be looked at or modded, the lmx220ma is the empire
then try 'fastboot boot twrp.img' once in twrp install magisk.zip. but thus requires unlocking bootloader (factory reset)

so like I was saying I need a boot.IMG or copy, if adb doesn't work I reset my computer or phone and used cwroot (the one that uses a script) root.sh to get the adb shell, that or factory reset the empire, and computer, reinstall adb ... thanks
fastboot only works from usb cable and is not related to adb. If you want to flash boot.img from adb you need a root shell. If you have a root shell you can dump boot.img by yourself with dd. If you find stock ROM you can extract boot.img from download, but you won't be able to flash boot.img without root shell, twrp or fastboot. besides this you need to unlock bootloader (which is only possible from fastboot) in order to get the capability to disable dm-verity, otherwise your phone won't boot with modified boot partition (and may become soft-bricked)
Another root method is bootless root
I strongly recommend you don't make things over-complicated and just find a pc you can use for 1/2 hour
maybe your device comes shipped with fastboot disabled?
