Flash Stock Rom on Bricked Blu Vivo 5 - Blu Vivo 5

Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, but I've been searching other threads and just can't find what I'm looking for. I rooted my Blu Vivo 5 a few weeks ago, and then tried to do any ota update. The phone will no longer do anything except boot into stock recovery mode. I've downloaded the stock firmware from another thread on this forum, however I'm not entirely sure of the process for flashing the firmware to the device. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

where did you get the stock firmware. I need the same.

found this. https://www. mediafire. com/folder/thsqttbrydqxc/Vivo#jozjsw5g9ppde for the download. Unzipped it. Loaded the scatter file into spflashtool. chose firmware upgrade. hit download. Unplugged usb and plugged back in. It is a fresh install but it works so far.

Just to confirm using this method you were able to unbrick your blu vivo 5?

confirmed, it works I just unbricked my vivo 5 using this method thank you.

[Q] Halp =( bricked

So i have a stock sprint note 3 that had 4.4.4 on it.
I attempted to install twrp/cwm through odin, but it failed and now i'm stuck in the failed firmware update loop.
I have tried installing older versions of the stock firmware, seems like i'm stuck looking for a 4.4.4 which seems kinda hard to find right now.
What are my other options, my friend is looking for the serial numbers to see if i can just use keis to recover.

Although your thread will probably be moved to the Q&A section, you stated you are able to install older versions...... take it back into DL mode and Odin 4.4.4. There are several threads you can download the NK4 Firmware from including the Sammobile site.

Honestly it sounds like you're making this more difficult than it really is.
All you need is;
NK4 .tar
SU
&
TWRP
So i'm fairly new to this the last phone i did was my vz s4 (and it went off with less bumps).
I'm stuck in the boot load loop. I can't flash any ROM on it right now, i think i'm trying to find the right 4.4.4 rom. Any place with good rom support would help. sammobile is far too slow on downloads...also there are a few 4.4.4 roms by now.
So the phone was purchased in early Nov 2014, already on a 4.4.4.
I dl'd odin and a TWRP, foolishly didn't make sure 4.4.4 could be flashed in the same way. Odin marked it as failed and when i re-start the phone it runs into the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again"
The phone can get into download mode just fine (cannot boot)...tho i have no idea what to flash onto it now.

As Nickitt stated, don't make it more than it is. If you can get into DL mode then you are not fully bricked which is good. You need to flash an " Official 4.4.4 Firmware " to get you out of this situation, whether it be a slow download or not. I provided a link in my original first response of several uploads of 4.4.4 that you could possibly use that were uploaded by member shadowcliffs in his same thread/post. After you have flashed the official firmware and gone through the initial setup once again with the stock firmware, get the phone back into DL Mode and flash TWRP or Philz CWM recovery via ODIN. Once you have your custom recovery loaded, flash the Custom Rom of your choice.
Hey dark,
thanks for the quick and very very useful response. i wish i hit this up way sooner i did find those links after hours of searching through garbage. i've been downloading a few 4.4.4 images for the last 2hours. Hopefully this will help me! sadly those are the same slow connections i've scene. damn 50kb/sec so sad haha
I'll keep the board posted. but mostly bump that og thread
Damn, fails on the nk4 image and the nh7.
fails on the same spot system.img.ext4
any other suggestions board? please?
make sure your using the hltespr version of either TWRP or philz recovery, if its not working on TWRP switch to philiz. Could also be a bad download - re-download and flash again
Why don't you just use TWRP Manager to install TWRP after you root?
Sent from my GALAXY Note 3 via Tapatalk
not being able to root was the problem
FIXED my issues!!
Never use vmware and Mac to run heimdall or Odin... They should more prominently tell you that.
Thank you board for the concern
problem solved
Thanks for updating that you fixed the problem and what it was. It sounded like you were doing everything correctly. i was getting concerned that it wasn't working. I don't use mac, but if i did i would have been very grateful for that knowledge. thanks for the update. too often someone fixes the problem and just quits posting on the thread.:good:

Parallels is a better option imo as far as v-machines are concerned but anything after Mountain lion doesn't work well. The newest mac osx doesn't work at all with Heimdall. It won't download the pit file. If your running mavricks you can try using a program called winebottle
How to Run Odin On Mac: http://youtu.be/j7fpouzMSsk also jOdin is another desktop tool to use. jOdin is a early stage online flashing tool with limited capabilities at this time.Beings its a online flashing tool. I would make sure to have a good internet connection or you could run into trouble im guessing. All in all I think its a good idea I just hope this project keeps going.

At&t Samsung Galaxy Go Prime SM-G530A Links to all firmware files + Root Success

The Samsung Galaxy Go Prime or SM-G530A is an AT&T Go Phone that is specific to being sold at WalMart.
In researching the phones FCC ID# I noticed that this the same phone as the SM-G530AZ or the one sold by Cricket Wireless.
First up are all the required files:
Firmware MediaFire
NV Data Mega NZ
QCN File Mega NZ
PIT File Mega NZ
BL+CP+CSC Mega NZ
Stock Kernel Mega NZ
I have successfully rooted the SM-G530A using KingRoot APK v4.62, I then installed the Flashify APK, and flashed the original Stock Kernel. (File must be unzipped and loaded as "Boot.img") After and only after that was done I was able to successfully restart the phone.
NOTE: Failure to re-flash the stock Kernel will result in a "seandroid" boot error.
Should you find yourself with the "seandroid" boot error simply install the stock Kernel through your PC with Odin.
Optional for Root:
I was able to successfully switch from KingoRoot to SuperSU with the Super-SumePro APK in the Google Play store. ($3.99 is well worth it! + your supporting good developers)
Here is a list of the required factory files:
ALL_ATT_G530AUCU4AOI7_G530AATT4AOI7_CL828509_QB6433914_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 1.61 GB
AP_G530AUCU4AOI7_CL828509_QB6433914_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 1.54 GB
BL_G530AUCU4AOI7_CL828509_QB6433914_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 16 MB
CP_G530AUCU4AOI7_CL828509_QB6433914_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 46.99 MB
CSC_ATT_G530AATT4AOI7_CL828509_QB6433914_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 13.97 MB

So, was this for 5.1.1?
Anyways, successfully rooted 5.1.1 with this method, but now wifi is not turning on. may have to reflash with kies unless there is a fix for this.

I am not sure the root binary is specific to any firmware however, if something should go wrong you now have all the original files.
No phone wifi issues on my end.. I use a newer Netgear AC wifi however, I do know that older Linksys N wifi made allot of my 4.4.4 and above phones go crazy.

I'm not talking about wifi signal, wifi will not turn on period. I go into setting and tried to toggle on wifi, button would go to on, then right back off. I have even tried running the service through adb and terminal. wifi will just not turn on. I already updated with kies, may try again after a few days.
Same here can't toggle wifi on. Tried it on SM-G530AZ (Cricket) 5.1.1. Rooted with kingroot, used flashify, flashed stock kernel, restarted everything expect wifi. Please fix. Amazing work.

Nevermind I got it working flashed my 5.1.1 boot.img (stock kernel) I extracted from .tar. wifi now working and root. Thanks again
Hmm, seems there are two different links to stock kernel listed in op. one is for stock_kernel_by_911.img and the other is stock_kernel_by_911.tar. Son is at work, so when he gets home tonight, I will try the extracted img from the tar and see what happens. Will report back with results.
Edit: After flashing the right boot.img all is fine. So, you MUST make sure you dl the boot.img that's in stock_kernel_by_911.tar, extract it and flash with Flashify.
Can someone tell me if that firmware link could get me back to 4.4.4, please?

Those are the factory installed files for 5.1.1 with the SM-G530A AT&T variant you would need the original release firmware for SM-G530AZ from Cricket.
If you can locate the original files they would be either

Yes its a great phone for the money. The root discovery for this model is currently less than a month old, so not likely.

I'm sorry but, I haven't found a solid answer to the question of will this work with the updated 5.1.1?
If not, where can I find the stock kit kat Cricket rom?
Thank you!
-it'll root but you lose WiFi-Sadness-restored with kies 3 worked.
Does someone have a stock SM-G530AZ Kitkat rom that is flashable via Odin? ...and will it overwrite the current 5.1.1?
Thank you for your time.
To give you a solid answer... Yes allot of people have the stock firmware but you most likely won't find it here. Try asking around where I found the stock files (link is in the first post). Save yourself and don't ask them for a "kit kat rom".. Ask about the specific firmware or file name for your phone.. You can flash back, but you better ready and have a solid understanding on how to reflash everything including re-initiating the radios, and security. (The process is detailed on the site where I got the files). Most of the people on that site use special hardware or "boxes" to extract the files, or pay a vendor for the OEM files. So don't be surprised if someone chooses not to share the files.. (I also listed a place to buy the files in the first post). Good Luck.

Hey what exactly did you flash to get the wifi working again ? I am now without mine i also have the cricket version. I extracted the boot.img file from stock_kernel_by_911.tar with flashify as described, I am thinking you did something a bit different?
Hey I'm trying to figure out exactly how to do this without breaking my phone.... can tell me if this sounds right for my SM-G530A? First I DL KingRoot v4.62 'one click root' APK, and use to root phone. Then, before rebooting, I use flashify to flash The 'Stock kernal' after extracting to boot.img.... My Question is after extracting the BL... , CSC... , and CP..., .md5 files what do I do with them? any help would be great....-Thanks

hey bro i just got it today at cricket store for like 79 bucks right now, the root will work, but gotta make sure you have the right boot.img to flash or wifi will not come on, also i tried to flash a custom recovery that a friend is working on just to see if it would work at all and i got the same dumbass fail that rooting would give about custom software that is not allowed blah blah blah, so if anyone else has this issue after testing a recovery or the likes i wanted to post something that will save your butt in the event you flash a recovery to test and it happens to you as well then you need to download
HTML:
https://mega.nz/#!ARhVBZTI!H5c9vf4yBszjbd94V6rBSoT7xjVy2X42EL0oFSVDZAI
then reboot your phone to download mode by holding power with vol down and home button then when you get prompt press vol up now in dl mode plug up to your usb on pc and with odin click the pda button and select the file you just downloaded with pda checked now press start let it flash and if successful you will get the device to reboot again just remember this only fixes you if you flashed a bad recovery or your testing recoveries and they throw the error. I just posted this in hopes of saving someone else a little time from repacking the backup recovery.img to tar.md5 as that is how it has to be for odin to read it as dumb as that is.
So, I used this guide to root my dad's Go Prime, SM-G530A , and I ran into issues such as, Wifi not wrong after which I fixed using Odin and the stock kernel image, getting alot of "Unfortunately, App has stopped." like the Google Play store, contacts and more, and finally, Kingroot rooted the phone once for two or three reboots and then root was gone after that plus don't suggest reinstalling KingRoot because adb install gives this error "install_failed_missing_shared_library".
Now what do I do now? Odin flash the files, if so, In what order, new odin's tabs are different like BL, AP, CP,CSC , and UMS.
EDIT: Alright, I looked at the files and the beginning of the files show CL, CSC, AP and BL but what about UMS and what do you do with these files?

Cubot Note S - How to root? 5.1 Lollipop

Hello!
First post here!
I just revived a Cubot Note S and am pretty happy with the performance.
I've searched around for a while and am unable to root the device, I've seen one other post on XDA regarding a successful Root on 5.1 but am unable to find any information on how this is achieved.
I've tried Kingo, King and Root Genius with USB Debugging an OEM Unlock enabled.
If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great,
Thank you
Sorry, don't have any kind of solution but I just wanted to say I'm in the exact same boat as you. Been trying to root my Cubot for days.
Good News!
Aftee alot of digging and flashing several recoveries I have successfully rooted the Cubot Note S.
Ill put a simple guide here to help:
Its your responsibility what happens to your phone, Mine works flawlessly, but be careful out there!
Requirements:
Cubot note S on 5.1 Lollipop
Smart Phone Flash Tool & MTK Scatter file (for the cubot) & Super SU.zip
buzztechnica.com/2016/03/how-to-root-and-install-twrp-recovery.html?m=
In the first paragraph is a download link. Download the rar and extract it. All you need is the Smart Phone Flash tool and the MT scatter.txt. THE RECOVERY IN THIS DOES NOT WORK!
Modified TWRP recovery (there is omly one that works!
android-hilfe.de/thema/root-und-twrp-fuer-cubot-note-s.753414/page-2 << Post number 37 has the Mega link to the working recovery.img file
MTK VCOM drivers
spflashtool.com
Look for link that says "Download MediaTek VCOM Drivers" get the self installer package.
About recoveries,
Make sure you use the Modified one and not any other. The bundled one in the FlashTool and the other 3 floating in the internet do not work as they do not register touches. These are useless.
Okay, so now you have the files i would create a new folder with everything you need. So thats the Flash tool, scatter file and the modified TWRP recovery and phone drivers.
Before you start. Copy the SuperSU zip to your phone somewhere. Also enable USB Debugging in the developer options. Finally TURN OFF YOUR PHONE. i.e hold power, power off. Dont plug your phone into the computer yet
On your computer install the VCOM drivers first. Now to get the drivers installed I had to modify the batch file to work on Win10. If your on Win10. Right click the install batch file and edit. Remove all the lines regarding the OS check and save and run the installer. A command window will notify of the install success
open the Flash tool. Now, the second box asks you to select a scatter file. Select the one you have.
Ensure the dropdown box is selected to Dowload Only.
Ensure that ONLY recovery is ticked, you dont wanna flash anything else accidently!
To summarise... now, you should have super su.zip on your phone. Smart phone flash tool setup with the scatter file and custom recovery loaded. Your ready to flash!
Before plugging your phone in click Download. Now plug your phone in. And you will see it will flash. Should take a few seconds youll see a bar going along the screen. A box will pop up saying download OK!
Now, apparantly your phone is meant to boot without any assistance. Mine did not. So in this case. Unplug from PC. Remove phone battery. Put back in and tey to enter recovery (Pwr + Vol Up) <<< tip, dont hold them in too long as my phone just kept resetting. Hold about half a second while the screen is on then let go
You should now be in twrp recovery. Swipe the notification and proceed to flash the super su zip. Once complete, remove your battery and DONT press restart. It wont work and your phone will freeze.
Put your battery back in and boot normally, you now have custom recovery and Root!!
Enjoy!
Sorry about the links. Im new here. Modify the links and paste in browser
.... or you simply navigate to needrom.com and seek for "Cubot Note S". Then you'll find a working TWRP-recovery for Android 5.1 and even 6.0, a beta ROM for Marshmallow (6.0) and the not yet published ROM from 11-07/2016 for Lollipop (5.1). To flash with SP-Flash-Tool from your Computer.
Cheers!

I tried these, but as stated, all those Recorives did not work due to not recognising the touches. plus, the 5.1 stock ROM is stable, where as the 6.0 is still beta. I'd rather stick with a stable ROM.
6.0 ROM and the 6.0 TWRP may work, but its untested for me. hence why I've targeted 5.1 in my tut
Thanks for the detailed walk through Sparky. I may give it a go but I'm very new to all this so I don't want to get myself into something where I'm not really sure what I'm doing. Either way, thanks for the help

BLU has a bad history of not supplying stock firmware, like some other companies.
I have pulled the stock firmware using SPflashtool. and tested that I can flash it back to phone to return to stock.
Tested only using two version of flash tool. Other versions should work, but just didnt try.
tried with V5.1916 and V5.1828.01
in both versions I did not need authentication file. But I did use the same download agent in both tests.
MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin used in both tests was from v5.1916
if you have trouble with the DA.bin from stock flash tool try the one attached. This one came pre-packaged with the flash tool included in the factory rom from my umidigi Phone. Not sure if it is standard MTK file or edited by UMIDIGI, but i know it worked on my phone.
To use the attached DA , unzip it to a location you remember. Open flash tool, on the top line "Download Agent" click select the browse to this downloaded file.
Here is my pulled firmware, that can be used to rescue your device , if needed.
Version of pulled firmware is
ro.build.custom_version=BOLD_N0030WW_V9.0.03.05_GENERIC 23-07-2019 19:17
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962604499
Because this is unofficial rom . Meaning pulled from device, not supplied from manufacturer.
It is unsigned, and requires unlocked bootloader. Else the flash process will ask for signed imges.
As a reminder, whenever you modify your phone, you should NEVER relock the bootloader.
Full firmware of the October update is now available.
I have not flashed this update. I do not know if there are any concerns with it.
BOLD_N0030WW_V9.0.04.00_GENERIC_20191016_1132

Accidentally flashed wrong firmware on my XGODY V20 smartphone. Can it be fixed?

Using the sp flash tool (latest) I didn't know it has to be the scatter file from the firmware downloaded so a long time ago I ended up using a random MT6580 scatter file and now my smartphone will not power on or charge after this time of flashing the correct firmware which what I got from the seller of my device. I have done a ton of looking around the internet for a solution but haven't found a thing :crying:, so I'm wondering if I can get some help here.
I've tried doing these with the tool below:
Reflashing firmware (Sucess)
Formatting the emmc and flashed again (Sucess but nothing happens on device)
This is my very first time doing this I don't know everything about when these things happen.
Please help me! Thanks.
