well, i was clean installing Xperia STE CM 11 pepper ROM. I was already using the same earlier , but wanted to do a fresh install
Anyways, i entered TWRP, and Advanced WIPE everything , including sd-card, Android Secure , data, system , cache & alll .
well , then i thought after rebooting i would just flash the ROM. ZIP as usual, but my phone is now stuch at SONY logo, and i am unable to enter TWRP.
So i tried to fastboot boot.img , and it was successful , but still when i try to flash directly the ROM.zip , using
fastboot flash zip <rom.zip>
it sends , but then returns with an error
FAILURE <remote : Partition not found>
then i tried to use this recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/sola-development/recovery-twrp-2-7-0-0-touch-recovery-t2683495
this returns me with error " daemon not running, starting it now on port 5037"
I also cant use ADB properly , my device isn't listed when i command adb devices
error : device not found.
( however lter on while doing the same via Flashtool , it does clarifies the reason that USB Debugging is turned off..so maybe that's why ADB is not working)
My laptop has win 7 , i double checked that i have all the necessary ADB and device specific usb drivers, and Under DEVICE MAnager Tab ,
so please tell me how to solve this...Android ADB Composote device is listed working properly.
So after that , i flashed this Kernel via fastboot Out Of desparation http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/sola-development/kernel-t2075093 [Sola] [CWM Touch] [6.1.1.B.1.54] [Unlocked Bootloader
and it worked , i mean i was able to enter CWM and navigate properly there, but i dont want to run stock firmware ICS again.
(also there i Explored my Internal SD Card , and it's completely empty)
So then i again flashed the boot.img from http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/sola-development/rom-cyanogenmod-11-t2743059 [ROM] [UB] [XperiaSTE] CyanogenMod 11
And well , the result is yet the same, my phone boots up and stays at SONY Logo, no LEDs flashing changing colors as it did earlier, and i cant enter TWRP , Neither can't i flash cm.11.0-12-pepper.zip via fastboot, it returns with error regarding messed up partitions.
also , i tried to explore/open Decompile the provided "boot.img" with PowerISo , ImgBurn , etc. and each says that the file is either damaged or corrupted.
MAYBE , that's the reason why me & many others aren't able to boot into recovery, there is something wrong with the boot.img of this rom , however i will try flashing Other ROM's Boot.img tomorrow.
I urge the developers to please look into that as you are our only saviors.
So my Questions now are
1. what should i do get a working CM 11 kk ROM for my device ?
2. Is my device Bricked ( because i am doubtful on that one, as i can connect it in fastboot as well as flashmode) ?
3. How to Create/repair the partitions , that CMD says are euther damaged or not found ?
4.Will flashing my stock firmware 6.1....54 , via FLashtool , solve all this & by solving i mean getting CM11 to work again . ?
PLease someone do reply , as i live in a remote town and i am all on my own completely. ThankS.
Try to use Xperia Sola AOSX ROM boot.img, then install cm11.
Try new version
First I take little credits for this method , alot goes to ElectronikHeart with his good work on ways to root and backup phones built with spreadtrum processors.
So you have bricked , forgot your patterns or messed up your spreadtrum it1500 and still after a lot of hard work your phone still show no signs of joy .. ?
Yes that's exactly what happened to me , It took me a bit of time to come around this method but I'm happy it worked out perfectly , and thats why I decided to share to others who are still hustling to unbrick the itel it1500 .
What cracks heads about this spreadtrum phones is there system architecture which doesn't even came with a recovery . ( yes itel it1500 doesn't have one and a couple of other I have worked with ) which makes it difficult to factor reset it when its pattern locked , I tried some cwm recoveries from ElectronikHeart thread but non worked with this model , I will try find a working cwm recovery for this one and post some time later or if someone has one please share it with us .
WARNING
This method is safe and will likely 100% bring your phone back to life , But don't act more geeky and flash wrong files , you will end up hard bricking it , and trust me you don't wish to hard brick a spreadtrum phone , you will have a 0.0001% of unbricking it .
WARNING
kaungmyatlin has a way of wiping userdata with researchdownload tool , I must warn you the files doesn't work with it1500 and causes bootloop or soft brick . they work with other spreadtrum processors mentioned ( SC6820 and SC8810 ) but not SC7710 ( it1500 ) as far as I can tell , or maybe I missed out a point in a guide you can try them but you have been warned
What you need
Spreadtrum drivers ( links below )
System image file ( link below )
A brain to work with fastboot and adb ( just some few codes )
Procedures
- Download and Install needed drivers
Thanks to ElectronikHeart for the links
ADB drivers http://www.mediafire.com/download/c5nf3rlhxmxhu4x/Spreadtrum+Drivers.7z
Debug drivers http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?2tyg0k2xp3ejgyg
Then you have to tell adb that you have a spreadtrum phone that you need to work with . By adding spreadtrum PCI ID to android usb vendor list .
Go to this directory { your_user_directory/.android/adb_usb.ini } open with any editor ( notepad , notepad++ etc ) and add below code
Code:
0x1782
- Plug in phone and let windows install the driver , There is one fun part about this phone , adb is by default ON which saves us some breath of finding a key combo of rebooting it to fastboot , of course if its OFF in your device you will have to combo the keys ( I must admit this is a try 'n error game )
key combo = vol down + vol up + power / vol up + power / vol down + power
or reboot in fastboot using adb command
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
phone will reboot in fastboot mode , you will note a black screen with red words ( written fastboot mode ) on the left top corner of the screen
- We can now flash our system file
- Download the system file Itel it1500 system image
- Put it in your adb directory and rename to system.img
Erase userdata
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
Erase cache
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Now flashing the system
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Reboot device
Code:
fastboot reboot
Done , let it reboot
Goodluck :good:

You need to remove some system apps in the file you have downloaded .
1 -> exctract system.img ( recommended an ext4 linux OS for this operation )
2 -> remove some apps that are useless ( Use google to know apps that can be safely removed )
3 -> repack your system and fastboot it again .
there are tons of tutorials around here on how to extract / repack img files
I can help you with this one but it will take a bit of time uploading ..

I know very well that the cwm recoveries posted here don't work for the sc7710g, cause I too have tried them all.
Am looking for one that will work on the sc7710g or for someone who can port one for my itel it1351e which uses the sc7710g chip set too, I already have all the back ups here. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B8S1H9fjcS8cSUFQdXJUeDYwMDg&usp=sharing

Everything is written and explained on the first post including tools and procedures required , incase of fastboot .. you need to have spreadtrum drivers installed ( link with extra information on how to install them explained on the first post ) .. you can then boot your phone in fastboot mode when you are done .
Download link not working pls update
Please update the download link for the rom. mediafire's acting up.
please is this compatible with windows 8?

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

You have to download the stock Android firmware for your Xperia Z5 on your computer – you can get it from Sony’s official website, or from any other source you prefer (for example: xda.developers.com).
Also, on your computer you have to download the Flash tool – you can get it from http://www.flashtool.net/index.php
Unzip and install the flashing tool.
Put your smartphone in fastboot mode and connect it with your computer.
Use the Flash tool and follow on screen prompts in order to reinstall the stock Android system on your Xperia Z5.

ty ... my phone xperia z
Solved : See last post. (tl;dr : flashed another zip through stock recovery)
Hi everyone !
I'm in a frustrating situation at the moment and I need some help.
The Problem
Everytime I try to flash the Stock ROM (or anything, even format/readback/etc...) with SP Flash Tools, I get the following error : "S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032)".
Probably a VCOM driver problem, but I just can't get them to work.
Main Infos :
- Device : Iconia Tab 10 (A3-A40) - Unlocked Bootloader
- Chipset : MT8163
- PC OS : Windows 10 x64
- The tablet is not bricked, I just do not have anything installed (wiped /system, /data, /cache (+ Dalvik)), preparing to flash the stock rom.
What I Have Tried
- Multiple SPFT versions (currently using the lastest, v1824).
- Multiple VCOM, CDC & MTK drivers with uninstalling of drivers before using another one (SPFT recognizes the tablet either as "Serial USB Device" or "MTK USB Device") (also tried W10 drivers found on XDA).
- Installing new drivers while it's trying to get the DA
The tablet itself is NOT BRICKED. It turns on & can boot in recovery or fastboot. It just hangs on the boot logo since no OS installed. I have the Stock ROM with the scatter file, fastboot & adb, etc...
I'm really confused as to why it's not working. I thought it would be because the chipset is not supported by SPFT, but apparently some other users successfully flashed the Stock ROM using it.
Any help would be appreciated, I don't know what to do anymore 3:

After trying, still nothing.
Still getting the same error, and when I try to update from recovery, I get an error (can't install this package over newer build (the build on my tablet is from May 25th, 2017). The one you gave me is the one from the Acer support FTP, but it is from 2016.
Is there any way to completely remove the build from my tablet in order to upgrade from the older one, or to change the build date of the ROM ? I can't seem to find the SD zip file for the May25th update.
Try this one :

Thanks ! This one actually worked. I had to edit updater-script to match the model ref though. Thank you so much for finding this !
FrWhyMe, I have the same problem as you had. A magisk update I should not have done....I've not managed to revert back. The table loops but I can get to recovery or fastboot. Reading back I'm not sure how you managed to fix it. Trying to flash the zip file from the previous link posted, I get the message about not being able to flash over a newer image. I've tried removing the first line of update-script and re-zip but the installation is aborted straight away. Any pointer would be welcome. Thanks.

I tried editing/updating the zip file from within 7zip by removing the line that checks version but the installation aborts without any useful message. It does look like it goes ones step further.....To be honest I've not had time to look further into it, I've not giving up yet .

there is not flashable firmware using SPFT for this tablet (((
they are only 3 stock firmware....and no one works for me.....it is one new: SDs_Acer_AV0M0_A3-A40_RV09RC01_WW_GEN1.zip
but you need to pay if you want to download it.....(
I managed to fix my tablet
The main issue I had was that I thought (after reading some posts) that editing a zip file using 7zip would not break the zip file signature verification but it did...I basically edited the updater-script file of the acer zip file to remove the version check and flash it from twrp to bypass signature verification. Let me explain what I did in more details. Keep in mind that my tablet has an unlocked bootloader and was rooted prior to the issues i had.
First, find out which file you need to download:
1. with the tablet powered off, press the power and volume up button together until the screen shows something then release them
2. you should now see the recovery menu
3. the tablet model should show on the second line - "jetfirefhd" for mine
4. download the right file from the acer website - AV0M0.RV03RC04.WW.GEN1, 1.5GB, 2016/08/15 for mine
Secondly, edit the zip file to avoid the message about not being able to flash over a newer version.
5. i used 7zip to open the downloaded zip file
6. browse to /META-INF/com/google/android
7. drag and drop updater-script onto your desktop
8. open the file with your favorite ext editor
9. delete the first line of the file (ends with ";") - this should remove the version check
10. save the file and then drag and drop it back into 7zip to overwrite the existing file
11. close 7zip and save when asked.
12. copy the file on a sd card for your tablet
Thirdly, lets flash the file from twrp (i used a linux to avoid win10 driver issues etc...) - these are the same steps as rooting once you've unlocked the bootloader. you need to download recovery.img / magisk v13 / no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1. Details here https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/acer-iconia-tab-a3.1801/root-fuer-a40.797192-page-3.html
13. repeat step #1 to go into recovery
14. select rebooting into bootloader
15. you should now see a fastboot message
16. from your pc/laptop start the command "./fastboot boot recovery.img
17. from twrp, format /data
18. clear cache/dalvik
19. flash your edited zip file
20. flash no-verity-opt-encrypt
21. flash magisk - the tablet would not boot for me unless i flashed this as it was rooted previously
21. reboot.
22. that should be it
I hope it didn't miss anything.
Only niggly issue I've got is that it's telling me there's an update but it cannot apply it as it is rooted. I tried using the uninstall magisk zip but it made no difference. I'm wondering if the bootloader needs relocked. Ideally I'd like to perform the update as it's nearly 300MB. The tablet is running fine though so i'm very happy to have it back
Good luck for anyone still stuck.
