Help: Softbricked after flashing wrong recovery - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Help. I'm new on flashing. Recently I accidentally made a big mistake by flashing a wrong recovery on my phone (Cloudfone geo 401q+) and now its stock on boot logo. I made a backup of stock recovery and firmware using flashify but I don't know how can it help me to get my phone back to working. Any help will be gladly appreciated. Thanks

Can you help me how to flash the firmware that I got using flashify? I don't know how to use it. The firmware file name is "gea4c3f5-00193-gbd6bb61 #1" I don't know if I should edit it or let it like this because it doesn't have file extension on it. Sorry I'm newbie on flashing

Optimus V Stuck In Thuderc Recovery

Okay so i had a rooted phone with xionia kernel and decided to use my nandroid backup to restore to stock VM Rom. Well like an idiot i factory reset from android GUI with stock VM ROM and forgot i had thuderc custom recovery. Now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and i cant flash to another rom or restore my nandroid backup. i"ve seen posts about this specific problem and people just get refered to a thread thats not specific for my problem. If i can get any help to get my phone back to stock or rooted just so i can still use it, it would be deeply appreciated.
You can try to help yourself by using the RomTools present here:

Other than that the only other solution I can see right now is to enter in Emergency\Download mode and flash with KDZ.
Please follow the guide here: http://prepaidandroid.org/index.php?title=How_to_restore_your_Optimus_V_to_almost_original_condition
and try to flash the stock recovery again.

[Q] flashed rom with TWRP recovery and phone not booting?

Hi
I was wandering if somebody could help me? I tried to flash a liberium rom and also flashed TWRP recovery. Did a backup and tried to boot my phone and it wont boot? It wont go into recovery mode also. It does however go into Download mode.
Also, I have a nandroid backup on my pc but dont know how to restore it via Odin? Dont want to do anything further as am fearful that it might make things worse!
If somebody could guide me how to get this working please? I would be very grateful. Phone is S3 I9300 (International version)
Many thanks

By your case u can only flash a stock rom via odin.
But it looks if u flashed wrong recovery by the looks of it.
And from that its not a certain return.
But u can always try
Learn how to flash with odin.
And go for it.
Any help u need just pm me

Don't blame on TWRP, you might be doing something wrong.
1. Flash recovery via Odin, TWRP or Phliz touch.
2. Enter recovery to restore your backup, both TWRP and Phliz will work for TWRP format backup, or reflash the ROM /Kernel or whatever you flashed, better do a redownload, file may be corrupted.
3. If you still unable to enter recovery, flash stock firmware via Odin and use Titanium backup to extract / restore your data from recovery's backup.

Please Help! I've been locked in download mode!

Hi all,
I'm new to the forums and I have come here for some help. I was trying to replace CWM on my Samsung Exhilarate (SGH-I577) with TWRP. When I did that it didn't just overwrite the old recovery but rather it added another recovery. Now when I boot up my phone it just goes into what looks like download mode and says there was an issue with a firmware update. I tried flashing the stock image through odin on my computer but again it failed. Any help would be great!
Thanks!

Check this thread here for information about your device : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/root-alcatel-one-touch-pixi-34-official-t3193624
and yes you can use SP Flash Tool here: http://androidmtk.com/smart-phone-flash-tool, get your device drivers first here: http://pic1.aotcloud.com/20150617/08/39/11/Mobile_Upgrade_S_4.3.9_Setup.rar.
If you have any questions, ask in the other thread.

Has anyone been able to resolve this?
I chose to restore my phone to factory settings and it just won't stop booting to recovery now.
I tried to flash Eragon but still the same thing.
I am using TeamWin Recovery.
Please help.
Thanks!
Just in case anyone will find this useful...
I resolved this by flashing back the stock ROM using SP Flash Tool.
