Firstable, i'm new to this forum so feel free to move my topic to the appropriate thread.
Hi, I need some help. I was given a bricked phone that I would like to fix.
phone: alcatel one touch pop S3 5050x
-Infinite boot loop when powered on
-it does not start with power button , only with the usb plugged in
-i have access to fastboot mode but not adb or recovery (i think USB debugging is disabled)
-when i try to flash CWM or use " fastboot boot recovery.img" i get weird white lines, like a lcd issue but the lcd seems fine, then it starts boot looping again and again
-i cannot find any stock rom in order to get clean boot.img, recovery.img and system.img and flash them
-i only found a TWRP backup but i cannot access any recovery mode or boot on it via fastboot
-converting TWRP backup files (.ext4.win) in .IMG files may help me
-Mobile upgrade won't detect the phone so it cannot download the appropriate ROM
-there is only a few files related to this phone, that's why it's so difficult to solve this.
I really need your help, i think every android brick/ bootloop is a challenge and i want to achieve it. :fingers-crossed:
English isn't my native language, i apologize for language mistakes.

Hi all
first of all I apologize if this is not the right place to put my inquiry in, but I could not find the specific forum for this device.
I have serious problem with this android mobile phone. it is pretty good phone very useful with dual sim function one of them is 3G with WiFi Hotspot but the problem that I have rooted the phone with superoneclick and I have installed a lot of apps in it modifying some language files then when I restart the phone to let the changes take effect then the mobile keep restarting for infinite. Tried to get in to the recovery mode by using Call Button+Volume up+Power but the screen became blank. I spent the whole day searching the the internet to find the solution but with no clue. the problem the device is new and not supported that much in the public forums. could not find Stock Rom. Huawei website and bulletin was not useful.
is there any way to do it through USB or sdcard and How?
thanks in Advance
I am still trying to find a solution...
if you need it, I attached the original recovery dump to this post.
then you just need to get "fastboot" and then (after preparing your device for fastboot):
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (on a command line opened on the same folder where "fastboot" is)
or you can probably do it too on Linux if you prefer. if it is possible, you'll find the way for it on Google.
also, to access fastboot mode is POWER+VOL_DOWN (not volume up or a 3 key combination) and recovery is POWER+HOME (which you probably already know).
the system dump I can't send because I never made a dump.img of it and I am currently having a bootloop problem (I'll probably have to flash the original rom from a friend).

Hi, Can you help me and upload the boot img. I accidentally erase the boot partition.
Many Thanks.
First of all I would thank Crowds he is the best reference that I've to return in case of any problem I face. (He doesn't sleep - any time I ask he immediately supports)
I bought Lenovo K910 and I've managed successfully to install new ROM "VIBEUI_v2.0_1443" and Gapps with Crowds support.
I advised two of my friends to buy this good and cheap phone. For one of them I installed the latest rom successfully. But with the other I had a big problem The phone stuck on Lenovo Logo.
I was trying to install TWRP 2.7.0.0 batch before installing my new ROM, but during installation and after the phone rebooting the batch command screen shows <Waiting for Device> and the phone is stuck on logo screen.
I tried to connect the phone to PC many times, but PC doesn't recognize the phone. When I try to turn off the phone by pressing the power buttons, the phone restart on logo screen like the shown in this video.
I've read in many site that I have to do the following:
Download and install "minimal adb and fastboot"
Just type on the command line without pressing Enter:
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"][B][I]fastboot [COLOR="Plum"][STRIKE]boot[/STRIKE][/COLOR] recovery.img[/I][/B][/COLOR]
you should place your recovery image file in "minimal adb and fastboot" directory
The phone should be disconnected from computer and completely off (press the Power button for 10 seconds - in my case the phone is restarting)
Press and hold both volume buttons, then connect the cable to the PC.
Once the phone vibrate, press Enter to execute the recovery command line
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In my case when I press and hold power button the phone is restarting on logo screen so I have to wait for battery consumption
I tried many times with TWRP images but it failed...
I tried with CWM image and it succeeded to load, but I don't have otg cable to load recovery or ROM from usb storage (The problem was in installing TWRP and my ROM should has no problem)
I want to flash TWRP on phone not only loading by "minimal adb and fastboot".
I decided to flash TWRP 2.7.1.2 batch through modifying the batch file. I just used fastboot commands
Code:
[COLOR="blue"][I]fastboot oem device-info
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot oem device-info
fastboot [COLOR="Red"][U][B]flash[/B][/U][/COLOR] recovery data/recovery.img
fastboot flash aboot data/lock/emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash rpm data/lock/rpm.mbn
fastboot flash sbl1 data/lock/sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash dbi data/lock/sdi.mbn
fastboot flash tz data/lock/tz.mbn
fastboot reboot[/I][/COLOR]
Finally I succeeded to install Recovery and phone works well in the new recovery mode and the system mode that I've not update it yet
I want to share you the problem solution in brief:
Download and extract this file "flashrec TWRP v2.7.1.2" from here
Just select without executing "flashrec_Modified.bat" file from the extracted files.
The phone should be disconnected from computer and completely off (press the Power button for 10 seconds or wait for the battery to be almost empty)
Press and hold both volume buttons, then connect the cable to the PC.
Once the phone vibrate, press Enter to execute the recovery batch file
and as me the phone start the recovery mode in TWRP and can be rebooted in system without any problem
i must extract "flashrec TWRP v2.7.1.2 this file on phone or where? can u explain a

As long as the hardware is not physically broken, your K910 is unbrickable

I followed the guide to revive my K910. You can refer to this forum post in which I documented my experiences:

You need to carefully follow each steps in the method - if you short that magic pin and then connect the USB cable (with battery disconnected), your computer will report seeing the device at either COM port 9008 or 9006. Then you can download the factory image to revive the phone. Of course you need to have the right device driver installed. Like I said, as long as the hardware is not broken, this procedure will succeed for sure.
I love you man!

Hello guys. I need your help. I think i somehow soft bricked my dad's s3 3gb ram version.
What i have done is flashing a TWRP img. Twrp was just fine. After that i wiped and installed a rom. I think the zip was broken or something because after the processes is done twrp said there is no OS (operation system). I clicked on reboot anyway by mistake i guess...
And at this point my phone only restarts itself. I can get in FASTBOOT mode. I have the drivers and all but i dont know what can i do with the fastboot mode.. But fastboot seems stable. The phone is not restarting when it is on fasboot mode. Yet as i say again. Is there ANYTHING i can do with fastboot commands? i tried to flash a recovery twrp img it said recovery partition doesnt support flashing..
When i try to boot in recovery the phone seems to start booting to recovery but after a while it restarts itself as it does always...
I tried SP flash tool mode too. My driver is fine, i can see preloader driver on my device manager but as always phone restarts itself to boot in normal mode... If only i can stop the phone from restarting.. I have twrp backup... Or i can flash stock rom...
Please help... Any reply will be appreciated.
I mentioned my problem on the main topic of jiayu s3 but since there is so little user attention there i wanted to open a thread here as well.. Sorry if its out of rule.
Welcome dear xda_dev user,
Model:Prestigio Multiphone 5451 DUO
My device in the past months stuck in a boot-loop, and.. I googled for loads of threads to read,but they don't really help.
This is what the phone do, and not do:
Can/Works:
ADB sideload (PC see the device!)
Stock Recovery Menu
Can turn off/on the device,screen vibration,etc. works.
No/Not Works:
Can't listen to ADB while booting.
NO TWRP and other Recovery menus installed, only the stock android one.
NO official ROMs available from this company.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This is what I tried:
Tried to load 1-5Mb "firmware" updates via ADB Sideload /throwing permission problems/
Tried to Wipe data/cache /didn't boot after this/
Tried to unplug battery <- make it 0% (uncharge)
Tried to load non-company driven ROMs via ADB /permission problems/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
NO official ROMs available from this company, I asked them to share, but they said I need to go a city (200km) away from me who have "authorized access"..
I kept this thread as simple as possible, BTW I have bought a new device, I still need this mobile because it still worth $50 I think..
Thank you if you can help, and ignore the grammar problems.
Not sure if these are legit firmware files for the duo but seeing you are in this fix it is worth a look i think
https://androidmm6.com/deviceinfo_1701.html
http://www.needrom.com/download/prestigio-pap-5451-duo/
Probably Scam/fake.
The file (rar) is locked via password and it's nowhere published, and it's only 1.65Mb so not really a ROM.
Anyways, I star you up for first and probably last replyer.
If you are able to sideload , then i think you can recover your phone in no time.
First I need you need to know that this procedure is complicated but You can recover your device.
go to mtkroms.com and Download any rom from there as per your wish.
-Remove boot.img from zip file and save it else where
-Sideload the rom
-After sideloading ,reboot device into fastboot by pressing power and both volume keys together until Boot Menu appears where you have the choice to Normal Boot , Boot into Fastboot(Bootloader) and Boot into recovery.
-Use Volume Down to navigate to Fastboot and press Volume Up (or Power button in some devices)
-After booting into fastboot , extract boot.img from .zip file to C:
-type in , fastboot flash boot "C:\boot.img"
-type fastboot reboot
If you are lucky , your device might boot (very slight chance to actually boot)
If it doesnt , no issues , this is where you show your skills as rom porter xD
You wont have access to Android OS , but after dalvik cache has been build , access to adb will be granted.
In the same above mentioned website , there is a tool which can port cwm for any mediatek device.
Download it in your PC , PC should not be windows 10 , Compatibility mode wont work.
Make sure you have Drivers necessary to proceed.
Use the tool and Click automatic porting and follow on screen option to Complete Porting recovery , once the recovery has been ported , reboot into recovery.
Now you will have complete access to adb without any problem.
Once you have a proper working recovery , with adb shell , do the following,
Code:
-adb shell
-df
-cat /proc/partitions
Once you have access to the mount points , you can start DeCompiling kernel and do the necessary changes in fstab
To decompile kernel , there are many tools for Windows and Linux
Google it , if you have any problem , PM me or reply back , I'll be happy to assist you
Hey there,
i was wondering if anyone got an idea how to get root access / TWRP working on a Doogee T6 Pro ?
I don't really find anything online that seems to be working and of course most one-click root tools dont work for China phones.
Anyone got any idea ? The official forums look empty as well.
It looks good

Some useful tips for rooting MAZE Alpha, perhaps will help you : MAZE Alpha root
Use the method I to patch your boot.img with Magisk-v14 and flash the result image, it must works
Here is the HowTo, have done it 3 times yet:
First, get the correct TWRP Version for Doogee T6Pro ( i dont remember where i got it, i can upload it somewhere if someone have a good location) and the SuperSu Zip.
Then, activate the Developer Options in the Device Settings and Activate the OEM Unlock and USB Debugging in there.
The next Step is to Boot the Device in Fastboot mode. you can either do it by USB with the Terminal Command: "adb reboot bootloader" or you can turn the device of and then reboot it by pressing the Volume Up Button and the Power Button simultanously (quite difficult, didnt Work every Time). You will get to a menue with 3 options: Boot to Recovery, Fastboot and Normal. Switch through these Options with the Volume Up Button and Select it with the Volume Down. Go To the Fastboot Option and Select it.
In Fastboot Mode, plug in the device to an computer and type the terminal command "fastboot oem unlock" (in windows, you have to install the fastboot tools. i dont remember that i had to install them in ubuntu... im not sure). this will wipe the whole data of the device. its important to reboot the device afterwards normaly. otherwise it could happen that you get stuck in an bootloop later ( happend twice to me ) this normal system boot will last much longer then normal, so get a coffee or tea
the next step is do get to fastboot mode again and then send from your computer the command: "fastboot flash recovery twrp-recovery-filename.img". this will flash the recovery.img on the recovery partition.
than go to the bootloadermenue and this time you dont choose fastboot but the recovery option. this will start TWRP
while TWRP is running, you can copy the SuperSU zip to the device with Nautilus or in windows systems with windows explorer. then select "Install" in TWRP and select the SuperSU.zip.
After the installation, reboot to normal system and you are ready with rooting!
if something goes wrong, it can happen that booting to normal system will get you stuck in an bootloop. the last time i could repair the system by booting into recovery (TWRP) and select the Wipe menue and there the Format option. the other time i downloaded the original system from Doogee and flashed all partitions. im not sure if that was necessary.... but who knows :fingers-crossed:
