my lenovo a7000 doesn't turn on, can't go to recovery mode. also my first hardbrick experience. desperate for help.
whenever i use spflashtools to download a fresh stock rom to my phone, it always shows this problem
"BROM ERROR : S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032)"
I've also tried to format it, but the same problem comes up.
Then I saw this vid. It's about fixing any bricked china phone.
"How to Unbrick every MTK China Phone ! Preloader / SP Flashtool Fix [HD]"
(pls search it on youtube if you like. somehow i couldn't post links.)
I don't know, but I think this vid is trying to fix those phones that aren't recognized by the PC. But mine is recognized. It comes up on the Device Manager as a MTK USB Port (COM10) with the battery on. But it keeps on getting disconnected and reconnected again. But this stops when I remove the battery, put the battery back on, click on download on the spflashtools, then connect the USB. The error will appear, but somehow the connection becomes stable.
Also this video talks about META mode. With the battery out, I tried all of the key combinations to enter this mode, without success whatsoever. If you know something, pls. share.

Hi all,
I have a Star/Bluebo B6000 phone which I believe is based on the MediaTek 6589T.
I followed the procedure here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206421
to set up a new ROM for the phone.
I seemed to have gotten it all done properly, but the phone only stays connected for about 2 seconds. The SP Flash tool moves into the red progress bar and then just fails.
Luckily, there isn't any software damage on the phone (from the look of it).
I'm trying to put in a new ROM to actually fix a previous issue where my phone remains on but when I press the home button or the power button the screen stays blank. Think a new ROM/fresh start may solve this.
But the core issue is that I am unable to put in a new ROM because the phone doesn't remain connected long enough.
Is there a solution to this? Or is there another way to install ROMS?
Thanks.
There are several things the issue could be.
Try running SP Flash Tools as Admin.
Try a different USB cable.
Try uninstalling current drivers and using PDANet VCOM USB drivers
Try a different PC
Try MTK Flash Tool as opposed to SP Flash Tool.
Make sure the scatter is correct. Create a new scatter with MTK Droid Tools
None of them work.
I've tried 4 different cables. MTK and SP tools.
It seems as though something is wrong with my preloader. When I try to 'restore factory settings' or even try to restart in recovery mode, the phone doesn't do anything. It's almost as though these modes don't exist or are bugged/busted.
EDIT: Yes, it seems to be some kind of preloader issue. When the phone is OFF, I connect the USB (which the computer recognises) and the within 2 seconds the 'disconnect' sound comes up. Within 2 seconds after that the battery charging shows up on the phone.
I say this because when the phone is ON, I am able to transfer files onto the phone and treat the phone as a normal connection. Something within the phone's software is causing SP Tools/MTK Tools/Other drivers not connect to it. I have a feeling I may have a corrupt/broken preloader/recovery system.
Thanks for the help. Please do advise as to what I can do.
Anyone?
Really could use some help.

Hi, did you manage to get this sorted?
Hello
I have a phone ZOPO C2 VER B. Phone turned off and do not ever want to turn on. It stopped responding to the charger, do not give any sign of life.
When connected to computer detects the phone, installs the drivers, the SP FLASH TOOL it detects. I pulled a few ROMs and I can not upload any ROM. It is always like this: It comes to 100% red belt and that's it. No error. The phone is detected as the MTK PORT, sometimes after reaching the 100% change in VCOM MediaTek USB DA. Here I give a link to the video where you can see how it looks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Iospu3n0oU&feature=youtu.be
I tried to upload separately preloader, recovery boot. Always the same ending. I tried with the battery in the phone, without the battery, hold Vloume - + Power, etc. Nothing gives all the time is the same.
Use three other PC to try. I have one more phone Zopo and on the same computer and the same driver is dowload rom with SFP without problems.
Phone is brick or can fix this?
Sorry for my english is bad
I am having the same problem, until now could not solve.
Hello all,
I have a rooted Micromax A58 which was perfectly working. I did a full nandroid backup of it 2 days ago. On yesterday, I was moving some system app (google maps, play store etc) to SD with some software) so that I could increase the internal memory and install some other softwares. But, unfortunately, after that modification, the phone stopped working properly (it was stucking up when the BOLT logo was reached). So, I started it in recovery and do a wipe cache and factory reset. After that, the phone is always going to Factory Mode.
Then I tried to Flash the Stock ROM using Flash Tool but was unsuccessful multiple times. After the scatter file selected, when I clicked the 'Download' (or even firmware upgrade), all time time, the phone was disconnecting/reconnecting every now and then and nothing happened after (even though I already installed the Vcom and PdaNet driver in the PC). So, I had to quit. I am attaching herewith the logs of the Flash Tool lastly tried.
Now, when I am starting the phone power button, nothing is happening.. NOTHING but black screen...
I am a bit worried.. your help very much appreciated. Please let me know for any information needed. Thanks.
'No com port detected' error
I tried another time and the problem still there.. When in SP Flash Tool, I select scatter file, click 'Download' and connect the phone to PC, the process doesn't progress further. So, I have to finally click 'Stop' to quit. In the logs, it shows--
"No com port detected.."
Attaching the trace logs file herewith.
Please advice how to resolve the issue.. I am totally stuck now. Thanks.

Hello Kapil,
Thanks for the response. Yesterday I tried with separate laptop, but the same problem was there. Today, I tried with the different USB port.. but didn't help.
It seems that the driver can not recognize the device and when I connect the phone, it is just in a loop of disconnecting/re-connecting. Please advice further. Thanks.
Only option now seems is Service Centre.
The guys are pretty dumb. I've tested samsung motorola etc.....they don't even know what root is.
Maybe they'll be unable to identify what you tried to do.
You can give any reason for it not functioning.
Good luck.

Thank you Kapil for the advice. As Micromax service centre is not having a good reputation regarding these, so I would go for that option as the last resort.
Before that, can I please ask the other members for giving further advice if there is any option to try with.. Thanks for your help.

In the meanwhile, when trying to resolve the issue, I tried the following steps and after that, I lastly managed to 'download' the Stock ROM successfully in my phone (using the Windows XP OS)--
1) As I was always getting the SP Flash Tool error 4032 for last couple of days and which was clearly describing 'please check your load matches your target which is to be downloaded', so was investigating the root cause in details. Upon searching in the internet, I downloaded multiple version of Stock ROMs for my Micromax A58 model from different sources to give a try. When trying to 'Download' (in SP Flash Tool), the 'T_09' ROM (link given by 'alanvmathew') in the below mentioned URL worked for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2610046&page=2
It is to be noted from the link that Micromax A58 model have 2 different Stock ROMs (i.e.- 'T_07' and 'T_09') which info I was missing all the time.
2) After identifying the scatter file in the SP Flash Tool and clicking the 'Download' option, I inserted battery in the phone and pressing the 'Power + Volume down' button, connected the device into the PC USB. Upon connected, the 'DA USB VCOM PORT' driver automatically installed and the 'Download' started and flashing of ROM went smooth. Finally, it ended up with green 'Download OK' message. Also attaching the snapshots herewith.
Will check the mobile and its performance further and revert back accordingly.
Hello everyone,
I really need help. A friend asked me to fix his tablet because it had malwares, so I rooted the device, and deleted the bad files, but then i got error messages, and at the end it went off. Now when i turn it on, it's stuck on the ACER logo, MT65xx goes on and off, I install all the drives but still goes on and off. I sent through adb sideload the stock firmware Acer_AV0K0_A3-A20_1.018.00_WW_GEN1_DCC thinking that i was going to unbrick the device but it didn't work. I tried smart phone flash with the 1.018.00 firmware but I keep getting BROM ERROR (2004). I checked the list of errors, and I changed the compatibility, and ran sp with administrator, but still error 2004. What can I do to unbrick it? By the way, I am following this xda thread to fix it, but I can't (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59693904&postcount=480) Thank you everyone!

hy friend use this sp flash tools v5.1515.00
this link download https://doc-0c-bc-docs.googleuserco...046/*/0B7XGoy6u4PgeX3ByYUNyWlpjZmc?e=download
go in sp flash tools then select scatter file where you download the rom on directory then check all,pres download ,now pres vol down and connect the usb to computer and tablet still press vol down,see the mtk usb on bar sp flash tools ,relese vol down and wait ,red bar,purple bar,yellow bar, ok circle , done ,now disconect the tablet and press power ,or check if have logo charger reput usb to computer.100 % tets by me work
I have a similar problem, but no error message...it just seems the computer can't see the tablet. I tried my Windows 10 machine and an old Windows XP machine I have lying around. I've installed several versions of drivers, and nothing. I'm so frustrated right now. @paulktm I tried your file, but there's nothing there. I don't get any kind of error message, the Win10 machine just acts like it sees the tablet for a second, then doesn't anymore. The XP machine sees it, but fails to install any drivers for it...even when I manually install them, they don't seem to do any good.
I'm so frustrated right now!!!
This is an old thread but maybe some poor soul finds it like I did and manages to get his device back as well.
I've had a lot of trouble with an Acer Iconia A3 A20 FHD that was stuck at the first logo screen. Powered off and connected to the charger it only showed the battery logo with the flash but no animation any more. Booting into recovery (Pwr+VolDn) worked but mounting the system partition didn't work.
SP Flash always aborted with the dreaded "BROM ERROR: S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (0x7D4)" / "BROM ERROR: S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004)" although cabling and drivers were perfectly all right. Obviously Acer patched the preloader in order to lock out SP Flash's download agent - that's customer support - thank you [email protected]#%&!!!
Solution: Power off, start SP Flash download/readback/whatever, press VolUp *and* VolDn simultaneously and plug in the usb cable. This way the download agent should be able to do it's job. I also plugged out the battery all the time and this seems to be necessary.
Flashing worked as it should and the tablet booted nicely and I didn't even loose my apps and data since I excluded the USRDATA partition from flashing.
Good luck!
Hi
same problem, tablet bricked after installing custom recovery and on boot loop
tried to unbrik with but SPF tools, com port is working but the firmware won't upload...
I waited for ages.. nothing...
Hi guys, I recently purchased a Homtom HT3 for my mother, when it arrived to me I charged it and checked it out a bit just to make sure everything was fine which it was.
She collected it from me the next day and told me she'd start to use it the day after, she calls me up the next day and tells me there's some problems with it and a few people at her workplace tried to fix it for her to no avail. I pick the phone back up and I notice that everytime I power it on, it gets stuck on the "homtom" logo.
As I don't know too much about fixing phones I only took the following steps before asking for advice here; I went into recovery mode by holding up volume and power button, the android guy with the red triangle appeared so I tapped up + power button to get into the recovery(?) menu. I wiped the phone to factory settings and deleted the cache in there but it hasn't fixed the problem.
I assume I need to flash a firmware or something to potentially fix this, but I'm unable to find an official firmware from doogee/homtom's site for the HT3. I've found a firmware that I downloaded from "chinagadgetsreviews" but I'm a bit weary to try and flash with that rom because it isn't from the manufacturer. (even if I knew how to - the only experience I have is rooting my own phone but that's when I actually had access to a working phone, not one thats stuck on a boot logo).
Sorry for the long post but could anyone guide me in the right direction here? TIA
I'm not opposed to not using official firmware, I think I use cyanogen mod(?) on my own phone. I'd just like the problem fixed in the easiest way possible.
Trying to fix it myself by flashing a rom via SP flash tools but I've ran into another problem which is stopping any kind of progress - the phone isn't detected in Windows, I can't enable usb debugging because I can't get passed the boot loop, I've tried installing the ADB driver manually which didn't seem to work (just said it didn't install correctly and left me with a yellow exclamation mark) and I tried to install it automatically via ADB driver installer but it just throws up an error that the device isn't detected.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello. I bought a Homtom HT3 and next day a done an update with sp flash tool. all gone ok, but phone now wont to turn on. I contact homtom and got all drivers and room to fix it.
