cheers mate it was the adb/ fastboot drivers that were missing =]
guys I have a weird problem, I installed honeycomb foliomod then I switched to 1.4 and I lost so I went back to the recovery cmw classic, now when I go to install cmw (cmw compatible for any folio) I get the droid with the signal of danger so I'm obliged to restart the tablet, and now I can not install the recovery, now someone can give me a little hand to understand how do I install cmw?
The fastest way is to install it via fastbooot.
you have a guide to install via fastboot? I honestly do not even know what this is fastboot, excuse my ignorance.
Just find my guide in General and then look into my HC thread for tutorial of using fastboot and then type:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img reboot
Sent from my IDEOS S7 Slim using XDA App
I have a small problem with the fastboot, I wrote out the cmd <waiting device> for ... I do not understand what's the problem
I noticed that the drivers will not install, you have a method to install drivers Folio 100?
Are you using W7 or Linux?
follow this guide

Follow what realmausi has posted. That will setup the drivers in Win 7 and allow you to communicate with the folio when it's in fastboot mode...
thanks a lot guys, really do not know how to thank you, finally I made it through Davvi not as stupid as I thought it would pass, the problem was in the drivers, thanks again
Hello,
my friend have a dell streak 5 and he decided to root it... he was orignally on android version 2.2 and then he followed a guide here http://www.modaco.com/topic/316229-19aug-streak-21-downloads-how-tos-rom-superboot-recovery/ and flashed superboot r1 for build 6941 for "2.1". and now its stucked in dell logo...
the phone can still enter into recovery and fastboot mode so if anybody can help to recover back the phone it would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance
okay first of all sorry for double post.. a user assisted me and said to flash 360.Now the problem is how do I flash it in fast boot mode???I mean I am a regular samsung user and we have tools like ODIN(for samsung) where we can flash a zip file but I see for Dell streak you get a .pkg file so any thought how I can flash 360 file and get the Dell streak back in action.
PS:This dell streak got semi bricked while rooting so it might not be rooted so please keep the situation in mind and say me is it safe to flash 360 and if it is safe then how to flash it via fast boot mode
If you can enter the fast boot and recovery then update your fone with gb (2.3.3)
New rom makes every thing good and better

You don't flash a ROM via fastboot, but in recovery. If you don't have a recovery installed but can access fastboot you should be able to install a recovery via MultiFlasher (link in my sig). For the 360 ROM you would flash one of the region 00 recovery images. From that point you should be able to install the ROM.
Next time, don't use a one-click method to root. Install a custom recovery, immediately boot into the recovery and flash superuser.

thanks for all your support.. I solved the problem..
I am also writing sets of instruction that how I solved it just in case if some one faces the same problem.
Making note of my problem and the dell steak 5 condition,
*I was able to enter the recovery mode(this recovery is stock recovery).
*Once I entered the recovery I decided to download the stock ROM file (update.pkg).
*MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE CORRECT BUILD FILE (.pkg) OR ELSE YOU END UP IN A SEMI/FULL BRICK.(well in my case my build was 15609 so I downloaded the 305 version .pkg file and recovery wasn't needed since I already had the stock recovery for the specified build which is already installed on the streak 5).
*I put the file on SD card and renamed it as "update.pkg".
*Flashed the update via stock recovery.It took like around 5 mins since it was the first boot after flashing so be patient.
*TA-DAAAA!!! my friend's Dell Steak 5 was alive and running up on 2.2.2 :good:
I thank to all the people who assisted me in this process.
PS:Special thanks to TheManii
Hey can anyone help me on how to root acer liquid zest (t06) 3g version? I don't seem to find any guides on how to root this phone.
If anyone can help me thanks in advance
Edit:
(Must be flashed with unlocked bootloader.)
To those asking on how I rooted my phone here:
Get this recovery and flash it:Flash this via fastboot/ADB
Mod edit: Link removed as recovery was causing issues with users' devices.
If flashing it doesn't work try booting it instead:
https://aubykhan.wordpress.com/2013/07/21/-tip-boot-into-twrp-or-cwm-recovery-without-flashing/
After Flashing the recovery download supersu and flash it:
https://download.chainfire.eu/969/Su...0630161323.zip
Done you rooted your phone
For anyone asking for a custom rom here:
http://www.droidpeepz.xyz/2016/08/cm-rom-601-cyanogenmod-13-unofficial.html
I know this isn't for acer liquid zest but it worked for me without porting it
try changing themes and settings if the rom is lagging or stuttering
For the stock rom I still need to upload it

I have the same problem as you do and have installed twrp several times but it's not helping i still get stuck into the bootloop that shows twrp trying to do some things but can't do it. So do anybody know where you can find the stock recovery for this device?
do you have a different link for the CyanogenMod? i can't download it in Mega Server, it says "Limit Exceeded".
Hey guys, bought this phone a month back and tried the recovery in the op and the display was off. As well as a couple of the partitions. Just booting the recovery once messed up my touchscreen somehow and I was unable to repair my phone. So I got another one and I went ahead and unpacked the recovery and repacked it with my recovery kernel as well as removed unnecessary partitions from the list of used partitions in the recovery. If anyone has a new liquid zest with Android 6.0, use this recovery:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4bOoJ_E5XzaktJVTcwNFNGazQ/view?usp=drivesdk
Also, I found the stock firmware if anyone needs it, just shout me a message and I'll upload it for you.

that is the stock firmware for the acer z525 aka the t06 aka liquid zest. This firmware flashes with sp flash tools. you will need the mtk preloader driver. alternativly, you can just flash the recovery and boot images included in the firmware package with fastboot. the commands are "fastboot flash boot <image>" for the boot and "fastboot flash recovery <image>" for the recovery. now as I said, this recovery works 100% for me and i have the same phone.... so When you unlocked your bootloader, you used the "fastboot oem unlock" command? and did you press the vol up button on the phone afterwards to confirm the unlock? and did it do a factory reset? all of these things are mandatory prior to flashing the recovery. if you did all of that then i gotta ask, Are you sure you have the z525 and not the z528 with lte?

Hello,
A long time ago my brother has done something more stupid – had made root in Sony Xperia Z2 with TWRP, using the latest version of Sirius. As he has bought his new mobile phone, he has given me his old mobile phone, but he was not interested in formatting, de-rooting or fixing the bug of AudioFX, then I decided to work on my own. I made a lot of researches about how to fix the bug of AudioFX, so no luck.
As I wanted to de-root, I had to use my friend and sister's computers with Windows, using Kingo Root, because I am a Linux user, but no luck.
Then I downloaded the original and de-rooted image from TWRP, booted into TWRP mode, and flashed that image into Recovery. After, I could not boot any more. I tried to press power and Volume - and Volume +, but I could not boot either. I plugged the mobile phone into my laptop with Linux, but it was not recognised.
I read the following topics of XDA Developers, trying to train myself, but no luck:
1. Problem with TWRP 3.0.2 and encryption to solve boot loop
2.. [Q] Flashtool tool failed after amss_fsg.sin, can't flash phone
3. Downgrade to KitKat?
4. Unknown firmware, no boot, I can't flash
5. I can not flash!
6. Boot loop after flashing any ROM
7. To flash the recover Rebooting into TWRP recovery ... adb is not recognized

Sounds like you just soft bricked your device. ?
As far as i know it's easily fixable.
I might be able to help you out with few more info. ✌
Was it a 3G one or a LTE one ?
What rom were you on ?
A custom one or stock one ?
And what exactly do you want to achieve ? A stock rom with no root ? ?

An original ROM without root. I know a de-rooted and rooted Android 7 and 8 cause AudioFX bugs.
Can You still boot into twrp ?
If so did you try flashing a stock rom via a zip ?
Or you can use the fastboot but i won't be much of a help unless you have a windows pc ,i'm not familiar with Linux ?

As I can not boot into TWRP, it is impossible to use FastBoot, using Windows. I did it once.

Did you install the fastboot unsigned drivers as + ADB ?
Whole process should be something like this
Disable windows driver signature enforcement.
[URL="https://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...igned-drivers/"][/URL]
Restart your pc or laptop.
Install ADB.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0MKgCbUM0itSUhpUklCTFpzWkE&authuser=0
Install flashtool-0.9.18.6 with all the drivers.
(For some reason this is the most compatible one for Xperia Z2)
Then try flash twrp recovery using the flashtool. ✌
