Second thing that i tryied to do was install recovery via fastboot using
Minimal ADB and Fastboot .

Hard bricked Meizu M1 Note

Hi guys,
after flashing original recovery from Rashr, I have a hard bricked Meizu M1 Note. I can only boot into fastboot or VCOM (for SP Tool), no recovery, not normal boot.
Hope you can help me,
Thank you
Same story, even worse! I wanted to downgrade from LP to KK. I followed step by step guide posted in other forum. Everything works, but after 2 or 3 days, phone started to act very strange. Volume keys did not react properly (cant switch in recovery and made an screen shot for example), phone started to loose network coverage . I tried to reset it, but unfortunately no fastboot and recovery modes were present. The only way to switch in recovery was rashr tool. I decided to reflash recovery again and everything went wrong! The result was permanent restart, no recovery and fastboot modes. Maybe this method should be avoided. I know that everything I made is at my own risk, dont blame me.
Need advice to unbrick it. I was thinking to disassemble it and disconnect battery and try to resurrect it with adb?! The bad thing is that it wont turn into fastboot...pfuu.
Have some progress - phone can go into fastboot mode, but when I try to flash stock recovery, it reports error:
C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (16384 KB)
OKAY [ 0.616s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:

Huawei P6 fails to boot

Hello,
Two days ago when I woke up my P6 suddenly didn't boot up anymore.
It's getting stuck on the fist boot screen where it says: Huawei Ascend.
I searched for a solution and tried the following things:
-Tried to get into recovery mode by pressing on/off+vol up, on/off+vol down, on/off+vol up+vol down.. Nothing helps, it turns on and off and shows the same screen again.
-Connected it to the PC, and the p6 is recognized as: Android sooner single ADB interface.
-Downloaded and installed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118
-Tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45106541&postcount=11
-I also put Update.app in the dload folder of my SD card. (I downloaded the file from the Huawei website and used a cardreader to get it on the SD card)
Nothing helps
Can somebody please help me ?
Thanks!

Hi
I can't get into recovery, I get errors using fastboot.
dload folder with the firmware in it doesn't do much either.
The other link you sent there is a program; Spreadtrum Upgrade Tool that needs .pac files, I don't know what that is.
Fastboot can see the device, but it cant flash the recovery?

FYI,
now i can get into bootloader but without a recovery...
with the already downloaded stock rom i'd extracted all IMG files from the UPDATE.APP.
the step where i'm stucking is that flashing system with fastboot gives this :
target reported max download size of 266338304 bytes
erasing 'system'...
OKAY [ 1.094s]
sending sparse 'system' (259466 KB)...
OKAY [ 17.422s]
writing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: size too large)
finished. total time: 18.547s
the system.img is 2.39 Go.
same things and messages happens with recovery & boot files [ FAILED (remote: size too large) ]
I thank you advising how to resolve this
[SOLVED]
Here's steps that I made (after a long search with Dr. GOOGLE ):
1- Download & install the Android Studio and its SDK tools (that include fastboot and adb latest version). when having the famous message of FAILED (....TOO LARGE) use the -S switch and be patient with SYSTEM.IMG since file size is big (first tries gave me the error message but after many try it works),
2- Download the official stock ROM from Huawei webpage,
3- Download Huawei Update extractor,
4- Extract BOOT.IMG & RECOVERY.IMG & SYSTEM.IMG from the UPDATE.APP extracted file,
5- flash sequentially : RECOVERY then BOOT then SYSTEM (Remember the reboot after each flash),
That's all...Folks

Xperia Tablet Z - cannot get into recovery

Hi there! My old Sony Xperia Tablet Z is running Resurrection ROM (Android 8), I use the tablet as a travelling companion. I also have TWRP as recovery.
Today I flashed the latest version of TWRP via the TWRP app, tried rebooting into it using a "quickboot" app (the tablet is rooted) but I ended up on a black screen. I can reset and Android runs no problem.
I then tried flashing TWRP via USB. I type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
- it goes on a black screen and the status light is solid blue. I then run
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
- the outcome is
Code:
sending 'recovery' (11796 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.379s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.384s
Then I tried
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
- and I get
Code:
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.376s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.032s]
finished. total time: 0.411s
but nothing happens.
Someone suggested to use
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
instead (as I am on Oreo) but same error
I am stuck. Any help please? Thank you!
If bootloader is not working Use QPST Flash Tool to reflash everything back to stock.
Thanks. Too bad I don't have the original ROM backup anymore. I will try to download one, I hope all works well.
Can you just refresh me: when into "bootloader" I am supposed to see the bootloader menu on screen?
Edit: it seems that I am unable to install the Qualcomm drivers - Windows 10 reverts to generic drivers or ADB drivers. The drivers I downloaded don't seem to work with Windows 10?
any help on this please? Thank you!
Sorry for insisting - any help please? Can you point me to the right direction?
edit: I've done some homework and here is where I am.
Following some threads I tried flashing the stock ROM using flashtool. I used both the latest version and the "Emma" version from Sony.
I can connect to the tablet but I receive a the bundle does not match the connected device as - I reckon - the device is seen as an unknown device. The same with the Emma version, unknown device and as such, a No matching services as a reply.
Edit2: I found the solution for the above, I had to use the previous version of Flashtool. I flashed a stock ROM. Now it does not boot anymore. I have the SONY static logo and then a black screen. I tried again and also another version for my device but no luck.
Please help!
I am a bit lost here. Any help is appreciated. BTW, I can boot up the tablet perfectly fine and it works ok.
I'll just complete my very lonely thread for future references.
The issue was that I needed an older stock ROM as I was coming from Android 8 - a known issue apparently. I found a very old ROM (10.1 "store front"), that worked ok. From that one, I can do whatever I want. I ended up installing LineageOS which I find much faster than Resurrection.
