Greetings there fellow xda members...
Yesterday a friend of mine gave me her Lenovo s820 (MT6589) to change her ROM.
It came rooted so I just downloaded from play store 'Mobileuncle MTK tools' and selected update recovery.
I flashed it and then rebooted. The recovery was in Chinese so I rebooted again and searched for an english copy of cwm.
I found a guide here about how to flash a custom ROM on this device and downloaded 'CWM_v6.0.3.4_S820_ROW' that was provided.
I flashed the .img file using mobileuncle but after I pressed reboot the phone wouldn't turn on. Not a boot loop, just nothing.
After a couple of hours searching and trying different solutions the phone powered on and I have no idea how I did it.
Now sometimes it boots, sometimes it doesn't.
Most of the times it boots it's after running memory test using the 'SP Flash Tool v5.1352.01' but I don't thing they are somehow related.
Also, Flash tool displays the following error in memory test "ERROR: NAND Flash was not detected!"
but I had no luck finding a solution for that either or if it is somehow related with the problem since most of the people facing that error had formatted NAND something I didn't.
Thanks for reading, I hope someone can help me fix it otherwise I'm in some serious trouble :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Hi guys, new to the forum, but been reading for a while now.
I need some help with my gf's device which i got messed.. So here is the problem:
Device: Alcatel One Touch S'Pop (4030x)
Carrier: Globul(Bulgarian)
Root: YES
SU Status: Installed SuperSU
Stock firmware: latest ver of Android JB 4030x modded for globul
Recovery: Selfmade CWM.
So the problem is that the device was stock and sim locked by carrier globul, what i was trying to do is root inastall cust recovery and install new rom, hoping that this will debloat the device and eventualy sim unlock it, now i am stuck with a white screen every time i try to boot it, juat after the first boot animation. Tried to go to recovery - work flawlessly. Tried re-installing the custom ROM several times with no luck.. Here is what i done:
Rooted with VRoot, then installed CWM recovery via MTK Droid Root & Tools, all worked fine, the stock (rooted) ROM booted with no problems at all (restarted couple o times)
Then i downloaded to my SD the last version of GE-Rom from MXDevelopers blog and tried to flash it via recovery, following their guide(only difference that i used CWM instead of TWRP) everything went well and nice, then i pressed "Reboot device now" option in the recovery and it rebooted, shown the 1st bootlogo and than that white screen (ofdeath) and it doesn't do anything except when i press volume down and hold it, it vibrates as when you switch silent mode on with the vol keys, also i noticed that the power button works as supposed (locks unlocks).
What i need to do is getting a custom rom working on the device, or at least a stock (non globul) rom working on it..
I tried to flash thru recovery the X9 ROM in hope it will do the job but null... I tried several times to install and re install the rom with no succes so far. What i am thinking is that i somehow damaged the boot image ( i havent touched it but i dont know if the custom rom had tried to modify it. )
Please help!!
Will click the thanks button, i promise

Hello people.
I have KINGZONE SM-N9002 (Clone of Samsung Galaxy Note 3) MTK6582 and today I tried to install this ROM (Android 4.4 KitKat) -> needrom.com/download/am3-kk-v1-0-for-kingzone-sm-n9002 . I did everything, wiped data/cache/ everything I needed to and installed it . Then clicked on Reboot, and what happened is that my phone doesn't reach the menu, it just reboots showing the logo screen every time constantly!!!! I clicked on restore on Recovery mode, but it seems there are no files there. I tried to to reflash my ROM using this -> needrom.com/download/kingzone-sm-n9002-mt6582 but when I do it using Flash Tools, I get the error Invalid scatter file format. Please help! I'm in terrible need of my phone and since it is a clone, I will have to send it back to China and wait ages for it get back. Plus, I'm leaving for Scotland in two weeks time so I'm in desperate need of my phone. I cannot do anything!!! I have Flash Tools and MTK Droid Tools on my PC, so can you suggest anything that can save me????
I finally managed to flash my ROM using SP Flash tools but now my screen shows something like green pixels and it doesn't respond to anything!!!! It's like my display is completely "broken".... Please help!
goodmorning everybody . i am sorry about my bed english also i am sorry because i am writing this post while going to university so will check it later since my phone is broken
first of all my phone is lenovo k6 power i've rooted the phone and it works fine but sadly some apps detect root so i decided to remove it by installing other costum rom called lineages i guess like that
i was sure that the rom will work so i didn t do a buck up and i i did the wipe data system and i delet everything . when i tried to install the rom it didn t work it gives me error 225 which i search through the net and i discover that i need to change something in the rom i tried but it gives me same error
in that moment the phone stucked in boot it won t shut down either go trwp or fastboot i tried to install the official rom by Qfil but i can not since the phone did not shut down i've said i will let it to the point where the phone goes down of charge and try
i let it and now in the morning i tried but the programm didn t detect the phone also when i plug the phone to the charger it doesn t work please help guys i beg you all help and i promise i will not touch it again :crying::crying::crying::crying:
Shouldnt have been that bad
If the lineage os zip gave an error it means that it didnt install. TWRP should still be there and you should be able to bolt up back into recovery. Try doing the right button combination to power up and enter into recovery. I doubt that after installing a zip and rebooting your phone broke.
brother i installed trwp i am using the one that i did on rooting and installing superuser
any idea how can i shut down the phone to install the official rom
Hi,
I couldn't figure out where to ask this query since I couldn't find anything regarding my phone. I own a Lava_R1s with StarOS V3.3 with Android Version 6.0. This is a phone available specifically in the U.A.E market since its made without camera and GPS so that it can be used in the oil field.
I tried to root the phone and now its soft bricked. I can enter fastboot mode and recovery mode (TWRP) but every time i try to switch on the phone it keeps going into a loop of the "Lava Powered by android" and switches off and then continues to keep doing that.
Here is what i did.
1. I used fastboot to unlock the OEM.
2. Then I flashed TWRP as recovery for the mobile.
3. After that i installed SuperSU zip file.
After all these steps my phone refuses to start up. It just comes to the LAVA powered by android screen and stays on that screen till i press the power button.
Further more I tried flashing the boot and system with Stock ROM files downloaded from needrom.com. That hasn't helped. In fact the looping of the initial screen started after flashing boot and system files (I used img files for Lava R1 Lite since those where the only ones i could find).
Would be really grateful if anyone could provide me a solution for this issue.
Another thing is that a lot of my colleagues have the same phone, so if there is anyway to extract the rom from their phone and install on mine without actually rooting their device it would also work for me i guess.

I had the same problem , and I fixed it.
When you install the TWRP for some reason the data partition get corrupted to resolve this you need to do the following :
---- before you do any thing capture the following information and keep it ----
IMEI , Barcode, Modem Version, Bluetooth MAC , WIFI MAC address
IMEI, barcode and Modem Version details can be found in the factory mode:
- switch your phone off
- Press power button and volume down -- you will boot into factory mode
- from the menu select version ( scroll using volume down button ) click power button
you should see BB chip details, MS Board, etc
note down the following into a paper or to your computer and keep it ( in my case it was useful when I changed the rom)
1- IMEI numbers
2- Modem Version ( Baseband version)
3- barcode number ( I found this info only in this menu)
for the (Bluetooth and WIFI) MAC address you need to boot into your phone and go to settings , scroll down to About phone ( in my case I need to click to More) , then click on Status
you will found ( also you can found the IMEI information it should match what you capture above)
1- Bluetooth MAC address
2- WIFI MAC address
now you have everything you need to format your mobile in case that was needed.
---- Note the following steps will wipe your contacts and reset the phone settings, data on your SD card should not be effected -------------
To root your mobile do the following:
1- install TWRP using SP_Flash
2- copy SuperSU to your SD card
3- reboot to recovery (into TWRP)
if you install SuperSU, now you should notice that it didn't complete and there are some errors for that you need to fix the data partition before install SuperSU
4- click wipe, click Advanced Wipe
5 - select Data and Click on "Repair or Change File System"
if its corrupted the size should be 0 to fix it continue step 6
6- Click change File system and change it to EXT4
7- Wipe to Change it should format the partition for you
when complete check the size of the partition is not 0
if its still 0 " Click Repair File System" in menu of step 5
now you are ready to install SuperSU

Please tell me how to troubleshoot my software update error in my LAVA R1s non camera Android phone. The software update notification keeps on popping up. And when I click on the notification update then I get the following error saying " Not enough memory. Update needs atleast (109.82mb)". I even have hard resetted the phone but I still get the same update error later on once it gets completely resetted. As soon as it gets connected to internet data connectivity I get the pop ups for software update. How do I get rid of the same.
