Anyone figured this phone out yet? I've searched all the topics related to this phone and no one's posted a working solution. A working recovery would be awesome. I can get odin to pick up the phone when in download mode but the recovery that I have fails with this particular model.
Edit: just found out the bootloader is locked by default, so now the new challenge arises. Anyone know how this can be accomplished For this model phone?

I've read in several posts that they found the way to return 3-button download mode to i9000 samsung.
But i haven't found anything about any methods of returning it to Vibrant. So if there is any way to do that or not?

Wait for Samsung to patch the Vibrant.
OR
If your phone does not enter Recovery Mode, it is defective and T-Mobile will replace it.
P.S. Search before posting.
That was based off of a release by Bell for their series of Galaxy phones. To my knowledge, a port hasn't been made for the Vibrant.
My phone does not enter either recovery nor download modes from buttons. But i'm 6000 miles from US now, so I believe it's not possible to return it. And besides problem with getting the recovery mode is not critical, i can reach it through adb. But without hard download mode i'm very afraid of flashing new ROMs, because have a great risk of getting bricked.
So i'm wondering why nobody from developers has ported that fix to Vibrant, because i thought that at least one on them has the same problem

U might want to try using adb to get into download mode. "adb reboot download". Thats what I usually do to get into download mode.
I can get into it that way of couse, but as i've said if something happens during flashing, i'll get unrecoverable brick
Please post in the appropriate section
The latest leaked ROM for the Vibrant I noticed has bootloader files. Whether or not they updated it to fix this problem I do not know.
My Vibrant doesn't have this issue so I am not going to mess with it.

wow, it's interesting. May be someone from developers can know?
Long story short, bootloader is stuck. -- Phone is stuck in a boot-loop of sorts ... it keeps showing the very first screen that shows the Galaxy name and some other info and then flashes that screen over and over again. It is not a boot-loop that loads the OS and keeps loading that continuously. From what I know about phones/programming, which is limited, the bootloader either doesn't exist anymore or the code is not executing properly.
I know there are guides that are similar to my issue, but none of them seem to answer my questions specifically. And when I have attempted some other fixes, nothing happens. I am hoping for a direct answer if anyone has one.
Here's what led to this:
1. I wanted to install the new Android Revolution rom which suggested I have the MJ5 bootloader. I have not attempted to install this rom yet, my issue occurred when I tried to flash the new bootloader.
2. Followed a thread that explained bootloaders and how to install mj5 on note 2 via Odin. --> then got this boot-loop. MD5 and all that jazz was fine. Downloaded from reputable source too.
3. I was/am running a custom rom (JellyBeans build 26 I think) with TWRP recovery. I was previously running CWM recovery, but switched to TWRP because the guide suggested TWRP or Philz recovery for MJ5. Switch between recoveries went just fine. Also, I don't remember what bootloader was installed before I broke it.
I am not a developer (obviously), but I am fairly computer savvy. I can do most things if explained properly. Although I am prone to being an idiot so if someone is feeling a little helpful a step-by-step guide may be best.
I am hoping that someone could (1) provide me with a how-to fix this issue, (2) provide me with a link to the right bootloader that I need to flash in ODIN in order to fix this issue.
PLEASE HELP! I am waiting for some job interview calls this upcoming week and I will be F***ed without my phone. I know it's my fault that the phone is stuck, but I know one of you geniuses here will be able to provide me with some information.
In Summary:
Bootloader is stuck
Phone can get into Download mode, but that's it.
Odin will connect and phone shows up on COM port.
I am an idiot.
I am fine going back to stock recovery/build if necessary to fix this issue.
Thank you all in advance.
P.S. Soul is available upon resolution of the issue; shipping and handling extra ; ) If you don't want my soul I will send you a holiday card with my dogs on it.
You flashed a bootloader for a different phone. Mj5 is for the n7100. The Verizon Note 2 is i605. You have 2 options to get your phone back to 100%. Either use kobols unbrick method found in the general section or send it off to mobiletechvideos and pay them to get it working.
Here is a link to kobol's method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2615587

Thank you for the reply, I will try this now. I saw this thread but was hoping I wouldn't have to do this because of its requirements (screwing with the hardware and such).
Like I said, I'm an idiot.
Thank you for the tip though, it is much appreciated.

axpaxp,
You may try the method in this thread: How To: Unbrick A Hard Bricked i605 [n7100 Bootloader Flash] NO Resistor , as an alternative to Kobol's method.
I apologize if this is in the wrong section or been answered before, I looked and found nothing. I didn't want to spend the money for an expensive phone from the popular brands but wanted something decent. I came across the warp sync 2GB Ram, Quad Core ,5" HD Screen, 8mp camera and Sprints new Enchanced LTE speeds I get over 45 Megs anytime of the day all under $180. I love the phone but I just can't find a root guide for it.
It seems to never been rooted, the bootloader comes unlocked but has a secure boot image. From what I seen online that seems to be the reason why it can't be rooted. Is there a way work around? or a way to make a insecure img? I have tried every auto root from device/pc method. Source Kernel can be found here http://opensource.ztedevice.com/

Already tried both methods listed on the site resulting in each one failing, I've also found more people with this phone having the same issue also claiming to have tried all methods. Is there a way to make the boot image unsecure? I found one website stating that since the bootloader comes unlocked that a method to try would be to install a custom recovery then flash the SU to root. But I can't find a custom recovery for this phone anywhere, is it possible to use a customer recovery from a different phone on this one? sorry if that's a stupid question.

This is my first phone that I have had from boost, I usually have had AT&T phones or Cricket and I have had not trouble with rooting!!, I have never had this much trouble with phones and rooting!!, I usually root every phone I get, but apparently I have chosen the wrong company and phone!!.. I myself had tried every way out there possible and I can't figure out a way that works!!
Please Please if anyone finds a way to root this (as for now a piece of crap) phone then please let me know, I guess for now I shall wait!
Thanks,

I don't know if you still got this phone and trying to root it but if so you might wanna go to zte warp sync all things root site there's a bunch of ppl including myself trying to root it, anyway you said the bootloader is unlocked but for what i understand it is locked based on this site posts nobody is been able to get it on fastboot so if you can check it out thanks.
Is there any news on zte warp sync root
I just bought this phone today... I really like it... I'll be keeping my ears open
I sent a msg to ZTE about the boot loader... This is their response.
“ As of right now, we can not provide an unlocked bootloader. This may be something available in the future depending on the carrier's request for the design changes for the phones.
Thanks!” [emoji36]

A copy and paste I wrote on android forums....someone here might take a look.
I am looking at some stuff now. I can't download the files at the moment due to slow internet. But we can get into Download Mode by holding down both volume buttons and turning the phone on. I am wondering if we can use something like this. https://sites.google.com/site/zteopenfirmware/download-mode you can flash various files in download mode. Or something like this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163493 (Method 5 : ZTE Firmware Flasher) , I think low level access through download mode or FTM is the key. If or when we can get a recovery on this phone, from what I read it will replace FTM
The NanDL for firefox does connect to our phone and a guy named SuperR modified the boot.img.
It look like some work is being done on the ZTE Zmax that has the same problem as ours. Hopefully it will work.
This is my third ZTE smartphone ...the other two was a pleasure and a good learning experience to root. I am not tech savvy enough to root any phone without instructions. So I join the rank with the other that wait.[emoji17]
so you guys still haven't figured it out?
Zte zmax achieved root, might try kingroot to get tmp root, from there you will be on your own, bit it might work

Have you tried this ?
Download the Rootgenius,search from google and install in your pc and connect your phone,be sure that usb debugging is on when you are connecting your phone to pc.One thing is that you have working internet connection on your pc because this root software download some usb driver file of few mb.You root your mobile in less than three minutes.

Hey guys... I am having serious issues with my note edge and have been trying for a couple weeks to fix this myself without any luck.
Here is what happened... My Verizon Note Edge (SM-N915V) started to get a little slow and bogged down. I wanted to do a hard reset to get a fresh start. I originally bought this phone used... When I did the hard reset i was surprised to discover that this phone had been previously rooted. The phone will not start but I can enter download mode. I have searched the web and tried several different options but they all have failed during odin. What I am hoping is that there is someone here who knows more about this and then can direct me to the correct method and if it doesn't work I will post pictures or whatever... Would really like to get my phone back working again.

Any idea if its a Developer Edition? The Verizon Note Edge currently only has a temp root solution that is reverted upon reboot so unless it's a Developer Edition you may have a different problem. I believe the file you flash via ODIN is different for the Developer Edition. I don't have one so I'm not 100% sure on this but that may be a good place to look.
Otherwise, let us know what's happening when you try to flash via ODIN, errors, timeouts, whatever and maybe someone else can offer more assistance.

Hey, just letting you know your post came through blank...
Try to install TWRP and download custom ROM ,if did not work you may need to read this forum Root Verizon Note Edge DEVELOPER EDITION.
good luck
First off I noticed on XDA unless someone has a decent link other than rooting this device. There is hardly any love at all for this tablet and a great tablet at that.
I'm making this thread A. To help others in this situation and B. To gather as much information as we can on this device.
Currently my issue is I'm trying to hunt down the Raw Image File for this device, if anyone has it or knows where it is please post it!
The Oldest firmware I have is this UL-P01M-WW-3.3.8.0-user.zip to UL-P01M-WW-5.4.3.0-user.zip
I'm trying to flash this system back since ABD will not work or recognize this device nor will Fastboot works since bootloader is practically locked.
I'm trying to use the ASUS Recovery Flash Tool but need the raw.zip file for this device. Any information anyone has on this product lets all post it here!
For debricking please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/bricked-asus-zenpad-s-8-0-z580ca-please-t3461656
it has the link to "Z580C_all_WW_user_V4.6.1.raw". Just zip it and select that this with your "Asus Recovery Flash Tool"
Works great and debricked my brick
Lol. i was about to post you the post you made on this - which i followed to unbrick - thanks, BTW, both.
So... has anyone worked on rooting Z580c running on android 6? I'm fine with what i have, unrooted and running on 6 without much of a fuss, but i would love to be able to use AdAway once again (when i had rooted running android 5). If you know any proven methods let me know - thanks.

hi, may i know if you have Z58CA version of asus zenpad s8? I upgrade my device and have WW_PO1M-V5.6 firmware stock from their official site. I wanted to root this tablet cause my screen got broken at its still functional with ADB and OTG when paired with adapters supplying the power.
Im new to rooting this tablet and havent tried TWRP or CWM and i cant find a specific one for this device to unlock its bootloader. Also to mention if its succeful will it get locked again without problems?
