Nokia 3 stuck in recovery mode - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone!
I'm having trouble with my android nokia 3. I turned it on after a week of it being off, charged it and connected it to wifi to see if it had any updates to download. It said it had a system update so i downloaded it and told it to install. After the process it went into recovery mode and has been stuck there ever since! I try to reboot and it just goes back into recovery mode. I tried executing a system check and it comes up with a lor of errore, in the end the basic check comes up as failed and the advanced one too.
If i connect it to a PC it will not be recognized, so i'm guessing my only option is to find a way to install everything via SD card.... but i have no clue where to start from.
It is a nokia 3, was running Android 7.1, already tried to factory reset with no results.

Hi , try to put him in Fastboot mode see video bellow.

This is for Nokia 3 TA-1032 if you have another model then search firmware for your device.
Look if you have driver inside this firmware , it will need you vCom driver for your device .
Nokia USB driver:
https://devfiles.co/download/3iK0k7Sv/Nokia_3_USB_Drivers.zip
vCom driver : search on the internet if is not in stock firmware

i connect it when it is off and press a volume button like the guide says and i get an error:
ERROR: S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004)
[H/W] Fail to download DA to baseband chip's internal SRAM!

and another error in other cases that says:
ERROR:S_AUTH_HANDLE_IS_NOT_READY (5000)
This is a secure baseband chip! Please select the authentication file first

Hmm , try with another firmware for your device and make sure that scatter file is the same version as your phone cpu for example MT6737M . That error is I think because bootloader is locked.
here is one make sure is for your device I mean your CPU
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B0oLdVAk2l5va1ZlR05EVk5DXzQ

How to i see what CPU i have?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you know your model : write your model on the internet and see specification for your device and there you will find which CPU has.

No luck... still getting the same ERROR: S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004) - [H/W] Fail to download DA to baseband chip's internal SRAM! error on 4 different FW i downloaded all for MT6737... i've found 1.4Gb as well as 1.5Gb ones, all Nougat 7.1.1
Any other solutions i could try?

Hi , open your firmware and delete this file if you have inside it CheckSum.ini . Now go to format , format whole flash except Bootloader and NVRAM Bin Region , once is finish press download buttonand re-plug your device .

None of the firmwares have a Checksum.ini file, i tried the steps above (formatting) and when i connect the phone it gives me
ERROR: S_AUTH_HANDLE_IS:NOT:READY (5000)
[user] this is a secure Base-band Chip! Please select the authentication file first.

The battery on the phone is completely dead, can that change something? It shouldn't right? It says to remove the battery if the battery is removable (it isn't) on the program

On some phones you can't flash without the battery because the phone once is recognized it get's soon disconnected so put the phone to be charged for about 6 hours if not put litle more and try again to flash .

Tried again with charged battery, keep getting the AUTH HANDLE IS NOT READY error.

Try this firmware if that doesn't help you then I think that without auth file for your device or some service box you can't repair .

Lenovo P780 -MT6589 device hard bricked - Need help

Hi, I think I am in deep trouble now. My p780 8gb is completely dead after trying to flash a TWRP recovery in to it using a flash tool. Not sure what went wrong I fiddled with some settings in flash tool like 'firmware upgrade' and 'download' and at last saw a Dram failed message. I was using the latest s226 Kitkat ROW. Now all I can see is a red led charging light glowing while connecting it to a computer. The device is not getting recognized by VCOM drivers so no use with flash tool any more. Tried to reboot in to recovery and meta mode but the phone simply does not turn on. Anyone knows how to unbrick this, kindly help.

Hi. Please tell me if your phone is made in 2014. From what i see all phones made in 2014 must be flashed with another preloader. The simptoms you are described here seems that way. Waiting fro reply...

Hi stympy,
Yes it is a 2014 January version. But to be honest I was using a ROM with 2013 version preloader but never faced any problem, Today purposefully changed it to the new 121kb 2014 preloader and everything was fine till I used the v5 flashtool to flash the twrp and I think I selected the upgrade option in it and flashed the twrp> found the ROM and preloaders from needrom.com from the uploader xxxsadistxxx .It worked flawlessly and then after first booting I configured the wi-fi settings again turned it off and tried to install the custom recovery. Now completely helpless because the phone is not getting detected by VCOM drivers.

Look what you have to do!
Hi. The think was someting like this:
0. Unzip/Unrar those 2 archives.
1. First i install the .exe file from archive LenovoUsbDriver_autorun_1.0.10.zip. Reboot PC.
2. Plug the phone to your PC and new hardware wizard has appeared. Install the drivers by pressing automaticaly search the drivers.
3. Now power off the phone, and open the Device Manager, in Ports section.
4. With the Device Manager open, plug the phone this time powered off.
5. At this time in Device Manager/ Ports section, appeared for a second or two not in USB area something with.. MTK65...
6. Double Click fast on it because that will desapear very fast . If you missed the click for the first time unplug and replug the phone after about 5 seconds.
7. After you clicked on it all you have to do is update driver from MTK_USB__Driver_GOOOOODDD.rar archive, and voila you have drivers installed and now all you have to do is to flash you ROM.
Hope this will help you.
Tell me iff something goes wrong.
Good luck.

1) Hi, thanks for the troubleshooting steps but for the 3rd and 4th step, the phone is always in a switched off mode only. It simply doesn't get turn on in any mode.
2) I am using Windows 8.1 OS and Lenovo Usb Driver1.0.10 and VCOM drivers are already installed in it after turning off the digital signature check in win 8x OS and now nothing is happening after clicking on install option of LenovoUsbDriver_autorun_1.0.10.exe Is it a problem or in other OS also it wont prompt to click next or something like in a regular driver installation.
3) Phone is not getting detected in device manager after connecting it, so cant update drivers
Please suggest me what to do next.

Hi thanks a lot stympy. I am glad that you were spending the time and effort to help me. I saw that red button trouble shooting post in your TWRP thread and luckily for me after clicking on different options in device manager while setting a complete format in sp flashtool the device suddenly got detected and format was done. After the format the device has lost its imei number, BT code and Wlan codes. That was going to be a hectic job to reinstall imei with imei repairing tools and usage of Hexa editor for BT and wi-fi codes just because some drivers were not getting installed properly.. But to my sheer luck I had a "Data' back up in TWRP with my previous version prerooted rom . I was not that confident to get a restore of imei , BT and wlan codes because it is just a 'data' back up not full ROM. I ticked the md5 checksum and voila after installing the back up 'Data' everything , absolutely every single code in my p780 got reinstalled automatically .LONG LIVE TWRP DEVELOPERS......... May be even after formatting the complete flash drive of the phone it still keeps the imei and other codes in factory mode. I am not sure. Now phone is in perfect condition and I am ready for another go. Stympy please create a 2.7.1 twrp for 2014 preloader p780 8gb. thanks again for all your help

WARRNING This are only for 8GB PHONES.

Try to flash with scatter files one by one till works.
Use only SP Flash Tool 5.
After flashing TWRP do not reboot the phone, start the phone with Power button Vol + and Vol - pressed. NOT OPTIONAL
Be carrefoul to select Download not Firmware Upgrade.
Good Luck.
Thank you stympy master

Hey Stympy, you seem to know quite a lot about this! I have the same problem with my p780 4GB. After flashing everything seemed ok, as I got a green circle in SPFlash tools. However now I am not able to boot anymore. When connecting my phone to my computer the red light goes on and Device Manager shows a new MTK USB Port. When pushing the red button it immediately disappears. Does not matter if I push it for 20 seconds, as soon as I let go its bak in device manager.
When trying to reflash using SPFlash, it seems to recognize my phone, but when trying to format or Upgrade or Download, the red bar only loads up to 141776 Bytes and stops. Sometimes I have to push the red button for the phone to get recognized.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
ps: CMIIT ID on the battery says 2013xxxxxxx so I guess its a 2013 model?

Hi. Can you tell me what firmware did you have ?
From what you described your phone seems to be from 2014. This are the simptoms when the preloader is messed up.
Look what you should try:
Download from here the preloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/help/lenovo-p780-chineese-speed-version-t2874161
Replace your Curent ROM preloader with the one you downloaded.
Drivers from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/len...ial-kitkat-t2835605/post55587780#post55587780
Try this one and tell me if somethin goes wrong.

Fool me. I've tried to run CN on russian LiFE ROW with TWRP. You can laugh very loud.
1. unbricked with P780_S136_140306_Lang
cleared IMEI
2. IMEI recovered with Droid Tools
after reboting no gsm signal
3. NVRAM recovered from backup
No success.
SIM cards works fine on other mobile, 911 cal also work on this phone
now running on:
ROM: P780_S226_Life_XVIBE_by_Xakep
Baseband: P780.V23
Last idea is clone p780 (colleague has one) with IMEI change, mac address and sn. Now with which tool it'll be easier?

[Q] Lenovo P780 bricked

Hi there,
I need help on my Lenovo P780. I flashed it with P780_ROW_S124_140403_rooted_twrp_gapps ROM, procedure seemed to be ok but, after the green circle, I cannot switch on my smartphone anymore. Power+volumedown doesn't work and power+volumeup+volumedown as well. Now it's not recognized on my win7 pc! I tried to "uninstall" from device manager on my OS and then use the drivers contained in the .rar file "MTK_USB__Driver_GOOOOODDD" suggested some threads ago... but nothing happens, it's still an "unknown device" for Windows.
The only signal of life is the red light when the smartphone is connected to my laptop.
Please help me to solve this brick, I really do not know how to proceed.
Thanks in advance,

Hi stympy,
I'm using SP Flash Tool V3.1304.0.sn119 (build: 2013/01/28 11:26 r1073)
About the drivers... I'm using "MTK USB driver" folder that you shared in a thread some time ago... where can I get the version? Here you can find in attachment a png screenshot, as you can see date modify of the files in the package. Unfortunately I can't get info from my Windows device manager because of the actual "unknown device" recognition of my P780
just in case, ok for the teamviewer session, thank you for your availability!

Hi there,
it seems that now the device is recognized by Win7 because it finished its driver installation.
In the device manager now I see a "MediaTek DA USB VCOM (Android) (COM11)"; anyway, I downloaded the latest version of SPFTools (v5.1352.01) but both of the instances stops at "searching" time and 0% of the flashing process.
Could please someone advise?
Thank you!
Try to make sure the device is fully turned off. try to press the red button beside the battery. And then reconnect the cable while it is in the mode "Searching".. if it does not connect .. try unplugging and replugging it again.

After pressing the red button it got it up, thank you handshake1234. But flashing process stops later with the same error of the last ROM I tried to flash yesterday (attached).
Is that meaning I used another time a uncompatible ROM?
(Yesterday) S124_140403_rooted_twrp_gapps
(Today) P780_ROW_S123_131231_rooted_twrp_gapps
both for ROW.
Can anyone say something about the attached png error?
Thanks!

I have the same problem. Sh1ts started when I try to make backups. First, Mobileuncle said: no sd card?' No sdcard0,nosdcard1. So I didn't make backup on my IMEI's. But that is is my little problem. Generally, I saw that there were 2 versions: 4gb Chinese and 8gb row. So i opened explorer and saw 8gb storage. I thoght that I'm row. But I coudn't see version of my rom. Whatever, I decided to flash Russian version VIBE 2.0 lite etc. with replaced files for 8gb. Instled drivers and flashtool. It always gave me same error: DRAM FAIL 4032. Then, I tried to flash cust. recovery for the model. After flashing recovery it wen into a brick or bootloop. Now the screen wan't turn on. I read your guidens above, but when I try to flash stock rom it says: dram fail 4032, cant change preloader with yours couse mdchecksum doesn 't get right. When i try to flash to flash Russian VIBE with your pleloader it says not enogh space 1011. I think the drivers work properly, because spft recognizes the device and see it on com8 etc...
I am really upset... please anwer. Thank you for being there for us.

Hi.
Go there and download your firmware !
Flash it !
For custom recovery go there and download ROW ONLY recovery(openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0rev2-p780row.zip)!
Creeate one folder, unzip the recovery img and Copy the scatter file from your firmware in that folder.
Here is one "small" tutorial for rooting!
If its not working PM me !

Try to flash with Kies or Smart Switch app or
if you don't know what firmware you was using try to Flash latest firmware from German DBT .
You can download from sammobile firmware.

Now the problem is after the nand write started it stays a while on the cache.img and shows write operation failed(succes:0/failed:1) tried with odin v3.07 ,v3.12.10 ,v3.09 ,
v1.85, v1.3 older version does not fails but stuck on the cache.img . Downloaded firmware Germany DBT from fw.updato.com and tried downloading from sammobile but it needs premium account is there any other sites to download the firmware . And i don't know if the problem is the firmware. Why does the write operation failed at cache.img?

what does the files do in the above link ?
The main difference is that the single file doesn't Factory Reset the phone after flashing, but the 4 file firmware does factory reset and remove absolutely everything and make it like an out of the box phone.
The 4 files are called Binary Firmware which contains all the files in certain order:
Bootloader contains all the boot files
AP contains all the system and recovery files.
Modem/CP contains phone network and wifi software.
CSC contains PIT file and cache removing IMG which puts all the files in order and repairs any damage firmware has before.
Thats why they are called repair files.
Here is instruction how to flash that 4 files:

I tried that and in odin after the single download it stucks on the MLO and shows write operation failed. In device manager my phone shows as samsung composite cdc device.
What should I do now?
Uninstall all drivers for your device , you can use USB Deview which you can download on the internet , once you uninstalled reboot your PC and again put your device in Download mode , and Open Odin With Administrative Privilegion , put thouse f4 files in right places and click on Start .

No i did not try... Right now my phone is just in a boot loop where it stays a little, powers off, boots, stays a little, powers off.

If you have it just flash firmware with SP flash tool you will find scatter.txt inside of firmware if is right if not I don't know how to help you because the support for your phone provide just Manual , but not firmware .

Already fix this problem, do not launch sp flashtool after mct bypassing just launch sp flashtool after bypassing and so you will see the UART ports available
Hello friends I just made my account to tell you how to fix the problem
You need to empty 30 Gb of the C drive and that's it

what do you mean by " do not launch sp flash tool after MCT bypassing just launch sp flash tool after bypassing"? I am currently having the same problem and I don't understand also the reason why I need 30Gb free on my C drive ( which I do).

Hi Sandshadow, if you find the article on XDA forums by vagellis on unbricking a redmi note 9 it gives you well informed information on what your'e looking for. You'll need to find the folder called bypass. When opened you'll find a couple of files called 1st run this and 2nd run this.
Try either of these and you should get the result you're looking for.
Got a solution .. I encountered the same problem and I was as well getting a prompt on my PC saying "USB device unrecognized."
I did the bypass and since my phone won't be discovered by PC.. I held the volume down button and power button(Which opens fast boot traditionally), I heard the disconnecting and then connecting sound on the PC and the bypass terminal did its job with some lines on it...
It was saying "Press any key to continue" But I kept it open.
Went back to flash_tools.exe
It had directories already defined so it began the flash!
It happens 'cause the phone actually gets disconnected from PC!
