Hi
I tried rooting my Lenovo Tab 2 A8-50F with this guide "How-to-Root-a-Lenovo-Tab-2-A8-50F" from lenovo forum.
After finally installing TWRP there was a problem when the device was just rebooting into TWRP all the time because of "data could not be mounted" problem.
I tried restoring it back to old recovery, and I found recovery_stock.img added with the files, so I installed this stock img but now I cannot get to any recovery mode?
If I try volume (+) and power button it just restart itself, also same with volume (-) and power button. If I try both buttons it just goes into "dead command mode" (android logo image with red exclamation mark) and nothing happens. Is there anything I can do at this point? Can something be uploaded to SD card and booted somehow?
Edit:
I just tried using Firmware + Download option and now I'm getting BROM error :/... I tried searching for ROM so that I could flash the tablet with FlashTool but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know what can be done in this situation because now the tablet isn't even powering up?
Thanks!
Did you tried to flash your stock rom back and do all again?

I don't know where to get flash stock rom. I didn't find any stock rom available for this tablet. I went to lenovo site but there are only folders, which I guess need to be changed into stock rom so that I could update if rom FlashTool?
Edit: I tried to use Lenovo_Tab_2_A8-50LC stock rom, but it showed some NAND error, now I can't event try flashing it anymore, when I click on download in FlashTool and connect the tablet it just ignores it and nothing happens...
Please, don't do this type of thing... I don't know how to solve it now... Never try to flash a stock rom of another device into yours, even if it has the same chipset, ram count and processor... this causes changes at the binaries, and some functions can be lost, like camera, touch, fisical buttons. I guess... This can cause irreversible changes on the device, tell you with personal experience... I had an device which had two variants, model MB525 and MB526 (Defy from motorola) and I flashed an stock of MB526 and mine was a MB525 this made my phone hard brick... After this, it never turns on again... Any type of signal. Your device presents any signal of power? If your device come to this I guess, don't know if it can back again to turn up...
Flash is a powerfull thing... Remind of "flashing" like subscribe all your mind... Bringing an example to our body, its like fill the brain of a people with the basics commands of wake up, breath, live, talk and others.
Please, tell me what signals you can have, that I can try to show you an path.

Any body please help me, I'm love it because now we can run both WM. and Android
Upppp waiting for your help
Did you try a long press of the reset-button?
You could try to put the original Stock Image from HTC onto the root-folder of your SD-Card, rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and Push Vol up + Vol down during start and follow the on-screen instructions if it works.
Otherwise use Search-Function in the forum.

I use ORT
Did you check to make sure your radio version was correct before flashing? This is probably the number one reason for bricking.
Check this thread it may help you if you did the flash properly:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668347
i got same problem now...
no screen, no boot, vol down+ power oso same
no screen just a long vibration
anybody help?
I am using the correct radio so don't tell me I am using a wrong radio or something, I have been flashing for 4 months so I know EXACTLY how to flash.
now i can neither get into tri-color or hard reset so don't tell me to flash or smth like that, just tell me how to recover properly
Don't tell us to use search or something because seems like only 2 of us is encountering this problem in the internet
I'm exactly the same problem as TS coz it juz auto go vibrate when plug in battery
This problem actually started when I flash ROM halfway, it stucked and failed...
the device is already HSPL-ed!!!!
but why the F it cannot get into tri-color bootscreen now?
Also, I have to state that my device already got several problems before, my device was very hard to bootup as it will always stuck at HTC screen w/o red version number at bottom left corner, must keep on removing and reinstall battery and reboot until it can boot, not an issue with rom/radio/sim/sd as I tried flash proper rom and radio and remove sd and SIM.
my device also seems like got problem at the gps chip, because when using it for a few minutes, it will lost signal and never reconnects unless i soft reset, after use gps the device will also use battery VERY FAST(-100mA in standby, from -4mA).
now i cannot flash to stock completely, how do I get warranty it?
at the long vibrate, when i plug in to my pc, it will keep on got usb connected and disconnected sound
and dont know what device is connected as not shown in found new hardware and device manager
I also have been searching all possible keywords about what me and TS encountered but all linked to completely UNRELATED results(like search for long vibrations only link to people asking how to make vibration long and 1st result is this thread)

Silly question, but are you holding (and keep on holding) the Volume-Down button while you press the power button?
of course YES
i told you i have been flashing for so long
Leo from T-Mobile. Hi! I've got same problem. After flashing new (next) rom phone definetely died. Phohe is currently simfree and with HSPL. Only one reaction is short vibration after press power button. I searched everywhere. My phone has no bootloader but system see him as Qualcom CDMA Technologies MSM. Thats all, any ideas? Please and thanks for advice.

Yes, you flashed a non tmous stock rom that included a ..51.. radio and it destroyed your phone.
What rom? exact filename please.
thank you so much.
I bricked a Leo with the .51 radio. I think I read that is a European or otherwise foreign radio. Since your ROM has Euro in the name.......

The full filename for that rom is
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.66.479.2_Radio_CRC_Si gned_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship.exe
it comes with a version x.xx.51.x radio, and they do Not work on tmous (t mobile us) phones. They kill them
Your phone is dead, sorry. No known fix.
warranty or repair (or JTAG if you are brave and have the money)
a friend of mine bricked his phone. he then tried to microwave it, but that didn't work after that he took a power wire from an old computer, cut it and connected it directly to the phone's parts where the battery would go...this completely f-ed his phone up (he also used a lighter to fake a powersurge of the battery). Then he called htc and a few weeks later he got a new hd2!
GOOD LUCK
lol, he doesnt need to do any of that, its allready as dead as it can be. Loads of epople have had them replaced under warranty with this kind of brick. It wont start, so htc/tmo cant see that its been hacked.
Hi! I understand and realy sad. Somebody know where could I fix it in UK? And how much for this pleasure. Thanks.
i would contact htc, see what they have to say. (dont say you flashed it, it just stopped working")

you are really not giving a lot of details here...all you are saying you tried installing a rom and then it froze halfway..
Are you rooted firstly?
If you are have you flashed CF-root kernel?
How did you try to install the rom?
More info and then more people can help you out buddy..see if you can get into recovery and restart your phone.
well... if you've tried "every" (its not like there are a lot) button combination... then just go buy a jig from ebay and force it into download mode...

Nothing from what you said would help..
He obviously flashed it with Odin, and he said he's getting a yellow triangle with a computer behind it..
From what I understood, he could get into download mode.
So just boot into download mode and flash stock ROM. That should do it.

anyone else seeing an increase in the "i bricked my phone" threads?
dont think its coincidence they are increasing after the american variants have been released. People need to check what model they have before flashing things.
OP: not saying thats what has happened to you as you dont say if you have the i9100 or not, hopefully you do.

its ok and same goes by my post as well buddy..we all been in his position one way or the other
1st - Your phone is not bricked if it show an image. Whatever image it is. The only real software way to brick your phone is to flash bad bootloader or stop a bootloader while they are being flashed. However, Bootloader are flashed first. So if your phone stoped half way, you should not have trouble too much.
Remove the battery from your phone for like a minute, then reboot your phone in download mode (vol- + home + power and when the phone light up, release power.) Then flash another rom from odin.
Also, what rom did you used ? If you flashed a rom for another phone, then you might have flashed bootloader for that phone on yours, which is bad. In this case you will surely need a JIG.
sorry im new to this whole rooting/flashing thing. i downloaded the lightning rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274
i have never rooted or doneanthing to my s2 before. all i did was follow the instructions on the page and thought it would be all good? it froze about a quarter of the way there in odin so i just took my phone out.
I usually find from this state I can get back to bootloader or download states
push and hold vol+ and home then power for bootloader
push and hold vol- and home then power for download
sometimes the phone can seem to freeze a little or even die (this happened to me loads on the galaxy s and once already on the s2) and removing battery sim etc or attaching the charger can jog it
however as other have said a JIG is your friend if for no other reason that even if you recover without it, custom roms up the rom count which some twitchy carriers might invalidate your warranty for, the jig will reset this
you can get them from ebay for less than £3 delivered, or there are instructions on this site for making them yourself if you are so inclined.
simply search 'galaxy s2 jig' on ebay mine was delivered today from portugal as I am way too lazy to make one and only wanted a counter reset anyway
i wiped everything including a factory reset then installed liquid rc8 i used correct one for my phone it rebooted but never booted up to the samsung logo doesnt seem to vibrate or anything when i press power wtf?
now when i plug it into pc it shows my external drive then it vanishes then re-appaears and tells me to format it but that doesnt work either
Put in download mode and Odin back to stock.
How full was your battery when you started? May have drained it

If you can get back into recovery mode, try reflashing the rom or flashing another rom. I've had cases where a rom just wouldn't work for me (I too, have the AT&T Note). Never had the patience to try to figure out why. I usually try to flash several times (making sure I do a factory wipe) but if it still didn't work, I would just flash another rom.
If you can't get into recovery mode, then you may need to flash a stock rom via ODIN (in download mode) and then start all over from scratch (root the phone, install CMW or TWRP,flash custom rom, etc.). Please search the forums for a stock rom and all the files / instructions on flashing via ODIN if you aren't already familiar with it.
Since your PC recognizes the phone to some degree (it at least recognizes that the phone was connected and interacts with the sd card), it sounds like you have a soft brick which is fixable via one of the methods above. If your phone was hard bricked, then the PC more than likely wouldn't recognize it at all, it would do absolutely nothing and you would basically have a paper weight. It doesn't sound like you have a hard brick.
If anyone else has more insight, please chime in. I'm definitely no expert here.
it wont even light up to samsung logo or even vibrate also the sd is recognised but it randomly connects and disconnects odin does not see phone

Perhaps your cable is defective. All of my cables eventually get to the point where I have to twist them and hold them a certain way to work. When that happens I know it's time to replace the cable. You may just need to use another cable.
no i tried with 2 differnt cables also battery was at like 99% when this happened also windows keeps finding my sd for a moment and then vanishes could this be stuck power button? if so i dont see how i didnt touch power button when it rebooted

Looks like you will need to restock with SP Flash Tools. Check out the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2517093 for more info. I'm not familiar with this particular device, so make sure that that stock system supports your particular model and configuration as many phones like this come with different RAM or NAND sizes so you wanna make sure everything matches up to avoid making things worse.

Dear sir I flashed my phone with stock rom dozen tiems using sp flash tool.But when phone starts it hangs on boot logo I also install clockwork mode it shows erroe emmc not found also data,cache not found.It was unable to mount external and internal sd card. During memory test it shows
ERROR: NAND Flash was not detected!
I dont have any backup.md5 image to restore data or using MTKDROID tool?
Is there any hope for me to repair it by myself or i should head to service centre!
Sounds like you messed up the partitions. If flashing the stock rom through SP Flash Tools doesn't fix it, not sure there is a whole lot more to do, but like I said, we don't have those kinds of phones here so not 100% on that. Maybe something like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2296230 would be able to reformat something to get things going, but part of the instructions involve starting an app while booted, but can't really see why that is important if you have to flash the new parts through the SP Flash Tool anyway... If nothing else, maybe try to get a hold of the developer of that mod as obviously he is fairly familiar with the layout of the phone and would probably have some other suggestions for your issues.

Thank u sir for this helpful information.I trird but it always stucked during downoad :crying: finally I take it to custmor care.They flashed suscessfully but in recovery mode it shows laying android nad red triangle error.Is this happen due to faulty hardware or software problem.They r telling me to change the motherboard (PCB) my warrnety expired two weeks before....what is the reason of this error?
So they flashed the correct original firmware to the device and it doesn't boot? Or it does boot but just curious as to why the recovery has the red triangle?
If they flashed the right thing and it still doesn't boot, then not likely anything short of sending it to the manufacturer would help. Trick is knowing whether they knew what they were doing or not.

Ohhh ok, well then all is well! That is pretty common with stock recoveries across many manufacturers. Often there is a combo of buttons to push when you are at that screen to get the reboot and reset options to show up. I'd try toggling volume keys in there, see what happens. If you need a custom recovery, then you should be able to flash one again now.
Stock backup + SP flash tool = problem solved
No. Actually my phone screen was broke which replaced by service centre.Just from that day all panic begins it drain a lot of battery so I threw it into bin
Sent from my XT1068 using XDA Free mobile app
Micromax service center personnel's are worst and dumb people
My A116 also had the same problem.
Used to heat a lot and hang and restart without any fixed pattern/reason.
I flashed the rom many times, changed the recovery, formatted all, wrote new IMEI's, used custom ROM Etc. But, the same problem was coming everytime.
So, I concluded there should be some hardware issue and gave it to the service center here in Old City, Pune.
After a couple of days the service person called me and told that "ur board needs to be replaced. Its damaged and will cost 80% of the price of the phone"
I brought my phone back and showed to local repair centers. The response was "sir we ll not touch ur board as its short by the authorized people. Else we would have repaired it"
These chinese service centers are useless. Its like a deadlock.
Chinese will say : sir aapne bahaar khulwaya ab warranty se gaya to paisa lagega
Outsiders: Sir aapne service center mein diya to aapne galat kiya.
My phone was better hanging than completely damaged. At least I was able to flash and use it intermediately.
I bricked my Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 (YTS-X50F) this morning.
Trying to flash as ROM to get an update. it said it worked fine, rebooted and well ... I'm here aren't I.
Here is the thing, its somewhere between a soft brick and a hard brick.
If I try to power it down (or force it to turn off) I can hear it go through the motions. It plays the super obnoxious, deafeningly loud start up sound and vibrates. But the screen isn't readable. In some light you can kind of sorta make out the lenovo logo.
At one point I let it go through the motions, I could tell when I tried to swipe to unlock it worked (it vibrated when I did it from the wrong side and chimed when I did it right). I could kinda sort of make out stuff on the screen. but it wasn't in English. It was all as if someone had the screen brightness all the way down.
I know if I press and hold power and Vol+ it should go into Recovery and I could reset to factory etc. I just can't see that screen to do that!
Are there any kind of tools to force that from my computer? If I plug it into my computer and its on, my laptop recognizes its there.
I know I posted in the Lenovo forums, but I wanted to post here in a more general area in case other Android experts have ideas.

Hate to pester you but I've been searching on this all day with no luck. I've got Stock frimware downloaded (zip file) and extracted. Yet I can not seem to locate the scatter file required to use the SP Flash tools. Most sites say "includes scatter file" yet no zip file seems to have it included (yes I've tried it more than one place).

For lenovo no recovery needed to fix using pc. Actually while flashing you don't even have to power on your device.
