My padfone was bricked when I tried to replace the recovery by TWRP via goomanager (TWRP official recommended).
The procedure of goomanager makes nothing happens, it seems like just download the TWRP package.
The problem is that phone has different protection policies compared to HTC, samsung etc and the bootloader (fastboot mode) is locked by default.
In other words, there is no such a way to connect your phone when your rom, recovery did not pass the verification unless unlock the bootloader by ASUS official tool and void warranty before your operations.
If the recovery or roms did not pass the validation then the left-top corner of screen will show 'invalid kernel' and the phone haven't been unlocked to be premised to visit fastboot mode then the phone will be bricked.
I think there is two way to unbrick, the first is to unlock the bootloader by external connector, the other is to flash official recovery data by external. But when I tried to search solutions, I got nothing about padfone A66 even that RIFFBOX official forum.
Does anyone have an ideal to help me break the difficult circumstances?

Hi!
I heave the same problem on my a66 "invalid kernel"!
I would bee wery thankful i you would describe a little bit more about that how you fixed using jig!
My phone is dead for 6 months, it would be great to fix it!

Anyone here succeeded in unbricking?
in Windows 7 64 devicemanger the phone does show up as: ASUS android bootloader interface. In other words; Windows can see the phone.
What if you connect the bricked phone to a Linuxcomputer. Would that help? I mean, System and Storage are all on one single eMMc inside the phone. Is there no way to access this and read - write on it?
Nicolayer: you'r still there? A tutorial would be much appreciated.
signed .hex file needed
Hi guys!
Maybe I founded a soution for unbrick asus A66 with qualcomm download mode.
form teh pst ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136738 ) I take qlod.py and other stuff, just dosen't work because need proer signed MPRG8260.hex file for waking up the phone from a "deep sleep".
This "invalid kernel" has just happened to me for the second time when downgrading to 4.0.3 ICS using TWRP and I'm rather frustrated right now. I'm posting here because I am highly interested in a way to fix this that does not involve ASUS, which I've already done.
What's the deal with this signed MPRG8260.hex file? Also, is there anything new concerning a fix using JTAG? Is there anyone out there who can fix it and would offer a repair? I really want to get this brick back to life.
Thanks in advance,

Mi padfone se bloqueó cuando intenté reemplazar la recuperación por TWRP a través de goomanager (recomendado por el oficial de TWRP).
El procedimiento de goomanager hace que no pase nada, parece que simplemente descargue el paquete TWRP.
El problema es que el teléfono tiene diferentes políticas de protección en comparación con HTC, Samsung, etc. y el gestor de arranque (modo de arranque rápido) está bloqueado de forma predeterminada.
En otras palabras, no existe tal manera de conectar su teléfono cuando su rom, la recuperación no pasó la verificación a menos que desbloquee el cargador de arranque con la herramienta oficial de ASUS y anule la garantía antes de sus operaciones.
Si la recuperación o las roms no pasaron la validación, la esquina superior izquierda de la pantalla mostrará 'kernel no válido' y el teléfono no se ha desbloqueado para visitar el modo fastboot, entonces el teléfono se bloqueará.
Creo que hay dos formas de desbloqueo, la primera es desbloquear el cargador de arranque mediante un conector externo, la otra es actualizar los datos de recuperación oficiales mediante un conector externo. Pero cuando traté de buscar soluciones, no obtuve nada sobre padfone A66 ni siquiera en el foro oficial de RIFFBOX.
¿Alguien tiene un ideal que me ayude a romper las circunstancias difíciles?

Hi!
Respuesta en español :
Tu debes:
-Descargar la App Arctools (xxxx = mega) https xxxx .co. nz /#!gUpkjQTA!LWJCbE7fuH8UBDAI6237s1ZQuAU0PN-WeGrkFYLLwwk
-A través de esa App tienes que descargar e instalar CWM en la pestaña Apps
-Luego de instalar CWM, tienes que hacer Reboot Recovery, en la pestaña Reboot
-Luego, dentro de CWM, con la pantalla táctil, ir a Backup and Restore
-Si tienes una microSD (requerido para este paso) elegir la opción Backup to external_sd
-Esperar algunos minutos y voila!
Aquí hay un backup (créditos a blackfox69):
https xxxx .co.nz /#!K9p0kS6I!7a_BZSRKlSlpmySpLvWAeXRux4YofLHqoZ_IuYNI5Nk
Espero que te sirva y les sirva a todos los que tenemos esta tablet!
Espero que algún cocinero pueda cocinar una Custom Rom.
PD: Hay una Custom ROM de una Tablet marca Visture V97HD, que instale en esta Tablet, pero no me funcionaba el táctil, ni las cámaras y ni los sensores, pero el sistema andaba fluido. Espero que se pueda hacer algo combinando las dos.
Espero que me entiendan! :fingers-crossed:
hi
does someone still have the blackfox69 backup?
it's no more online and i would need it
thanks

I have the latest firmware on my computer when I went and I wanted to "install" the mobile did not respond and everything failed, and now a new error appeared that says "An error has occurred while updatin the device software. Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software "I understand that it is a samsung program but for what I read it only works if I have a recovery of my mobile saved in the PC.
Sorry for my English
Hi , I think you first wroted that your device is A6 but now I see is A7 , imei that you send me is wrong ( don't share to public , send me imei private )...

Extract your firmware to Desktop and load your firmware inside Odin , make sure that your phone is into Download mode , connect your phone with USB to PC and make sure that green Com port is open inside Odin flash tool , now click on Start to Begin flashing ....
Before that make sure that your battery is charged !!!

Hi, I'm trying to fix a phone, PCD 508 that apparently came with a virus from Factory. I think so because I've made a Factory reset, both from settings and from boot menu, wiped cache, user data, no use, it's still there.
Symtoms are that web pages pop up, at any time, of rubish random sites.
I found a Mediatek MTK droid tool but didn't work, as it only Works with Android up to 4xx, according to information posted in this forum, and this phone runs 7.
I hope anyone can help me, as the phone is a good budget one but it's impossible to use with this popups.
I've also tried this https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/ wich was great and I could "remove" stock browser and download a Chrome from Google Play. But the problem persisted.
Phone specs:
PCD 508
chipset Mediatek MT6735P
Android 7
I found that ZTE Blade V6 plus uses the same chipset, Can that be a source of resources for this?
Thanks for your help.
UPDATE 4/6/19
I've found the source of the problem: https://blog.malwarebytes.com/cyber...y-upping-the-ante-on-adups-fwupgradeprovider/
You are just the best kind of people on the internet and real life: that people who post the answer to their own question.
THANK YOU!
Spyware is still there tho
I've done the removal instructions from the Malwarebytes site, but the virus keeps reappearing after a few weeks.
EDIT: I found the definitive solution. RonAshman posted it for me, because my english is bad.
I fixed it! @ndu926 gave me the instructions:
- First download the original firmware (spyware included). You just need the boot.img file.
- Then download Magisk from the store and install it. You can also download the apk and install.
- Then patch boot.img using Magisk.
- Flash the patched boot.img using the SP tool for MTK devices. (Only for Windows)
- Install Root Explorer and delete from \system the adups apks and also geocodeservice.apk which corresponds to the "Helper" app.
- If you can't locate them, download jumobile from the store (or the apk) and use it to find the exact location.
- Perform a factory reset.
Done.
Piece of advice: Never buy a cheap a** phone like this one again.

Hola! NO me doy cuenta como hacerlo. Podrás ayudarme?
Hola Lunagatuna, yo jodí el mío intentando ponerle una ROM de otro fabricante pero con el mismo hardware usando la heramienta de Mediatek (como no se instalaban cometí el error de usar la opción formatear todo y ya no le pude poner ninguna rom) Veo que la solución vino de ndu926 que es de Buenos Aires. Si no entendés el post en inglés de arriba con la solución pedísela a él.

I was having trouble rooting this new phone, namely the phone being unable to connect to magisk recovery after root.
Does anyone have any clue or successful experiences，as this phone is relatively new?
pretty sure the phone does not have a snapdragon processor, as it was bought in Singapore.

Phone's SoC is a 2GHz octa-center MediaTek Helio P65 processor, it runs on Android 10.
Magisk isn't a Custom Recovery you can boot into, but a framework that allows you to modify the Andoid system. You can use Magisk to root phone's Android.

Hi! Was it for Samsung SM-A315G ?
ya logre hacerle root a través de magisk.
Descargue el firmware la última versión de correspondiente a mi terminal el cual es el a315g.
Descomprimi la rom y lo flashe con magisk, automáticamente magisk crea un archivo zip en la carpeta download y ese archivo zip lo instalas vía odim. Antes de eso debes avilitar las opciones de desarrollador y abilitar el boodloader

Hey buddy, in case you are still looking how to root the Galaxy A31:
How to Root any Samsung device via Magisk and Odin
In thios guide, we will show you the steps to root any Samsung device via Magisk and Odin by flashing the magisk_patched.tar file.
www.droidwin.com
Basically, the process consist of the following steps:
1. Download stock firmware and extracting the AP file.
2. Copying AP file to any android phone and patch it using Magisk Manager (no root needed here)
3. Copying the patched AP file (probably the output will be a .TAR) again to the PC.
4. Flash the patched AP file via Odin
