Ok, tell me to can help you;
Do you have TWRP installed?
Do you unlock bootloader succesfully?
In which modes you can enter? fastboot, recovery, download (do detects SPFlash Tool?)

Thank you SubwayChamp for help.
No , TWRP is not installed now .
Yes, I think bootloader has been unlocked. It is done with Orange status.
I think it is in download mode. it detects SPFlash.

Ok, I guess that your device is actually in bootloop and don´t booting.
Tutorial that you followed has many steps and don´t need to do all this to just root device and it contains some files like lk.bin that you can´t be sure that should be for your device.
Some users use this file (lk.bin) of an unlocked device and think that flashng in other device then get unlock it but no need, your device can be unlock it just follow some commands in fastboot mode.
Now you can do the next;
Try to flash again your rom stock (I guess that you don´t have a backup), if for some reason your official tool doesn´t work then use only some images like boot, system and userdata with the scatter.txt to flash them through SP Flash Tool.
Here a link to TWRP https://youtu.be/6vj_BY6xJdA, you can root it with supersu v2.78 0r v2.82 and here some files that can be usefull too https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0BwJgeCYTpnEHNlg2VUlieHFTYVU&export=download
Update steps that you are following to can assist. What extension has your rom and if it is recogniced for SP Flash Tool. I didn´t ask you if you can enter to fastboot mode and if you can then you can know if your bootloader is unlocked typing fastboot oem info
Most info that you give and some screenie will help to understand better
Unfortunatly, it can not enter to fastboot or recovery mode. Those files in replay didn't work and i dont have a backup. I try to flash recovery.img, system.img and preloader_shine_plus.bin . All done but it still black screen and does not boot. But now it connect to Pc without disconect .
I cant add link or images to my post.

Gmail didn´t warn myself about your post. Did you solve it?
You said that flashed recovery, system and preloader but how, through SPFlashTool?, if yes, are you sure that this tool recogniced your device?
You forgot to flash boot.img too.
Other way to try; flash only preloader.bin and then try flashing boot, system and userdata that are the three most important partitions to can boot.
Like last resort you can do a Format all + flash but only like last.

I´m not sure if you are connecting correctly your device at right time and form to can flash it properly. Every device has more or less a specific way to do it. My last alcatel it was connected just with device power off and after to tap on download, but in other device Blu Dash was connected pressing just vol_up and my last mt6757 Bluboo had to press both vol up and down at time to connect to pc and after to tap on download option. To have sure that is well done increase volume in your pc, you will hear a first sound that is cause pc is recognicing but then you have to hear a second sound that is when SPFlashTool is recognicing device and you will see a red line in down side of the tool window, release button inmediately and let tool to work.
This is a good rom for your device according the author is optimized https://droid1311.blogspot.com/2017/08/alcatel-fl02-aka-flash-plus-2-via.html and this is the link directly if you have troubles with pop-up-adds https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwAGh1drb91SeDZwV1VXbXpjQWM/view
Also you can try with other versions of SP Flash Tool, most stable maybe should be v5,1628 https://androidmtk.com/smart-phone-flash-tool leth me know how you go
If I understant, the status bar has to be red then I will release the mobile button and click download in SPFlashTool.
SPFlashTool 5.1628:
I try all the way with and without pressing any button but no luck . And when it work finishing with error.
SPFlashTool 5.1628:
I try all the way to get that mode but nothing works. So I try to click download button then conect the phone by random buttons and every time i get red color , yellow , green ,purple , yellow (for many times 100%)
then i get this error:
ERR: STATUS-SEC-IMG-TYPE-MISMATCH (0xC002002A)

There is a part that is not variable in the way to use this tool, ever you have to tap on download before to connect device and is recommendable too connect cable usb to pc (not yet to device); from here is when the button that you have to press can vary but like I said you before in my last mt6757 (a very similar to yours) works pressing both vol at same time to connect terminal cable to device and now you will see a red line (could be violet-ish)
Try before just flashing only preloader file to recreate some partitions and then do other flash for the other files.
Of course you have to be sure that all drivers are installed correctly cause this tool needs to put your device in download mode (a special level) and also keep it in this state so find VCOM drivers for Alcatel and adb/fastboot installer and try to uninstalling some older drivers that you don´t use and many times we keep in our pcs and for a short data transmission can helo that all the rom move it in same folder where SPFlashTool is allocated.
After updating drivers and trying all the possibilities buttons the red line doesnt appear.

Ok, here there are somethings that we need to know
- First of all don´t forget to charge your battery, after many attempts could consume a lot.
- Your device is recogniced in fastboot mode? mtk has two variables ways to enter to, pressing both vol + pwr till an options menu appear, then you have to select, and the other method most known is vol down+ pwr to go diirectly
- In what android version are you, 6.0?
- What is the exact variant of your device, you can know maybe seeing in the box, this rom is for 5095K version 6.0 MM
- Did you try to flash just preloader, only this file?
If SPFlashTool don´t give signals of recognicing device is probably that your device is not now totally power off, try pressing pwr by 7 seconds, then try to flash again combining both vol with pwr button
Upload some screenshot about the process

Which option mode should appear? Screen is always black (off) all that i have on the phone is the LED.
I try more than 4 different drivers for Alcatel Flash Plus 2 (vcom & cdc) but no sound from SPFlash to prove that it recognise the phone. Sounds just release and keep relrease from Windows 10.

You need to try two different ways to flash files and restore your device.
First method: fastboot mode
You need to get device enter to fastboot in order to flash some files like system, boot and userdata, then there are two main methods to do it:
- Pressing pwr + vol down
- And I mentioned that sometimes work pressing both volume button + pwr and a menu have to appear to can select an option to enter to (fastboot mode), in some devices this method is not working but you have to try several times attempting to.
Second method: SPFlashTool
You have to ever press first of all Download box and connect terminal cable to pc and the buttons thhat you need to press at time to connec cable usb to your device may vary, sometimes vol down, sometimes both vol but never pwr button; if pc recognice then you have to release all buttone an let it pc continue the flash process.
If SPFlashTool recognice device first flash only preloader file and select now lk.bin too. Flash only these two files and after do again a new flash with the rest of the files, Why you need to do this? your partitions are corrupted and you need to restore them with these files in order to can flash all another files.
Before all of this charge your battery, if you have a cover removable then extract it some minutes and put it again.
Also I read that for this model it´s used this tool instead of SPFlash Tool https://androidmtk.com/download-sugar-mtk-sp-flash-tool (inside the zip you will find a password to start the tool) but I´m not sure what kind of rom it needs, you have to connect your device to begin the process, you will find in product models section in the tool this variant for your device "FL02"
Try first the other tool and then this and let me know how you go, mtk devices are almost unbrickeable so it´s just to find the appropriate way to return it to the life.
Hi again!
It was along time,I know . But I tried to know why I can’t return my phone back to life.
I have searched all possible websites for rom of this model and I have formatted my pc and installed win7 with all necessary drivers.
I can’t found any rom for it but now I can flash all the necessary files for boot they flashing and running smoothly but the mobile can’t boot up.
I try to use that app in your replay. It recognizes the device but stuck after that and keep looking for rom without any chance to download it.
I think I have a wrong rom files. I can’t find any other reason but this.
I will write again all information about my phone:
It is called Alcatel Flash Plus 2
I bought it from AliExpress and it came from Indonesia as I remember (not sure)

Yes, so many time
When device is booting, it stays in bootlogo or goes atleast to bootanimation?
I understand that you tried with Sugar tool with no lucky.
Did you try again through SP Flash tool? trying to flash in a first attempt only preloader file and in a second attempt the other files? (try with 2 or 3 versions and see the differences).
Is there some custom development, recovery, roms for your device?
I think that now you are flashing correct rom through fastboot but like you did before bad/wrong flashings your bootloader is refusing to boot to system. Flash through fastboot all the partitions that you can follow the syntax for every one of them by i.e. typing fastboot flash cache cache.img and so on one by one (some of them are unflashable through this method)

I´ll tell you some ideas with no any specific order that you can try or see if works.
Really very strange that display stays in black, you told me that flashing files through fastboot is working but doesn´t appear not even bootlogo, connect to pc as it is and see how pc recognices in devices manager and my pc if appears like a determined drive d/e/f so it looks that some bad flashing burn your kernel and this case is similar to when a Samsung device need to use jtag method to revive, if in your country no-one knows about Alcatel devices this could be a similar case to what I´m saying then it could be a clue for a technician. I tell you this cause many time ago when I flashed by error a Samsung s4 and only this method revived my device.
Try this, flash your stock recovery only through SPFlash tool and flash after through Alcatel Download tool your stock rom cause some firmwares need to detect stock recovery first to can flash other partitions.
At this stage don´t you have stock recovery, no? so you can try to format data cause sometimes when bootloader is altered then avoid to boot and formatting data can solve this.
If this recovery twrp is for your device you can try flashing through SPFlash tool, you have to put recovery.img and scatter-txt in a same folder. then if succesfull format data, system, wipe cache and dalvik and maybe later try to port some custom rom would be a way to solve this.
To flash any partition through fastboot this is the syntax, just follow one by one any of the files that are in your rom folder so just follow these, if some of then can´t be flashed don´t worry then it´s not flashable:
fastboot flash boot bot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash lk lk.bin
and so on till the end
...But after try this if you didn´t get boot to recovery and obviously you can´t delete data nor system then delete first the next partitions trough fastboot typing:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
Try all this and let us see how it goes
I have flashed TWRP Rom but it is same , no luck.
On sugar tool I got this message after success flashing via SPFLASH tool.
I tried all possible buttons to connect device to PC on Fastboot mode but the PC cannot send data to my device.
To be in Fastboot mode , the device has to boot while pressing on (PWR & VOL+) but my device can’t boot.

I see that Sugar tool detects your device like rooted and refuses to flash anything, compare imei number which is in the box, I hope that it couldn´t be changed.
Don´t tell me simply no luck, what it says in SPFlash tool when you tried to flash TWRP and I guess that you put scatter-txt and twrp renamed recovery.img simply in the same folder. Just to be clear, to can flash with this tool your device it has to be off not needed fastboot for this. (provide some screenie)
Other combination of keys to enter to fastboot to flash some partitions when something is missing is, try these three ways:
- Pressing only vol down and at same time connecting to charger (connect first one terminal of cable to your device and then to the charger)
- Pressing the three buttons till a menu appears (you must to release inmediately all)
- Pressing vol up + pwr till a menu appears (you must to release pwr button inmediately) then choose fastboot
In the post 4 I provided a link from Google Drive, in this zip there are 8 items;
- From the item 2 use this version of SP Flash tool, put the four files in a folder and flash them
- In the item 3 you will find some scripts for fastboot, maybe they´re working better and also you have here a subfolder with twrp image.
- And if you get sucessfully install twrp in the item 7 there is a backup with some files to restore from this recovery.
Try one by one and update the info, I hope that your motherboard is not damaged.
PHH aosp gsi confirmed to boot on BOLD-N1.
Need to be fully stock
--boot
--vendor
--recovery
Restoring device to factory condition , see this thread
Download PHH-AOSP 10
Download will be a compressed file *.gz , ectract the *.img file from inside

fastboot flash system **extracted-GSI.IMG**
fastboot oem reboot recovery
Perform factory reset inside stock recovery.
my tests trying to complete these steps with twrp all end with unknown imei.
V203 boots with only found issue is the fingerprint sensor Not working. For me i feel mtk devices are not secure anyway, the fingerprint sensor is more of a gimmick, so if it is not working, i do not care.
Current version v215 tested by and boots fine.
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases
Things to consider
WHAT WORKS:
audio -music and speaker phone
camera-front and back (yes pop-up camera works)
video-camera front and back
video playback --(tested youtube in browser) - recorded video playback
Phone calls
messages
auto rotate
brightness
wifi tethering
mtp
flashlight
lift to wake (needed to turn off then on to activate it)
adaptive brightness
dark theme
gps
WHAT DOESN'T:
--Fingerprint
--phone works/ but dialer app has message that device is unsupported
--off-mode charging -- when charging with phone off, bootloader logo screen stays on, instead of battery icon
--screen recording-- after enable dev option // feature flag // settings_screenrecord_long_press .. you can access
screen record from long press power menu, long press screenshot menu, but recording will not save or stop
recording.-- setting option to on does not survive reboot
-- screen shot -- taking screen shot forces a bug report creation. (maybe this is not an issue, only a setting)
.
So I actually have to go back to stock since I'm running magisk? Is that why when I try flashboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img it comes back as unknown file/directory?

our device does not have VBmeta
the directions that say flash VBMETA, say use the stock meta file from stock firmware. so because that file is not used here, this is why you get the error message, ......
actually from your command you did not tell fastboot the location of the file you are trying to flash Unless you have a file called "vbmeta.img" in the current command terminal location. But again back to my original statement, our device does not have this file, so IF you do have the file, it is from other device anyway.
I guess I see how to flash the gsi but how do I get twrp installed?

After the adb push, for me at least, the phone starts to continue its boot operation. Still do the reboot anyway.

So I haven't been able to find a twrp.img file for bold n1. Sorry if I sound stupid but this is my first time doing this. I had root with magisk and something screwed it up, and my phone was reading SIM cards. I uninstalled magisk and am back stock with an unlocked bootloader ...can you possibly walk me through installing twrp and flashing the Android 10 files? I would be so appreciative!

I have not been using twrp with GSI, but if you want to try goto twrp thread. Note that the twrp is currently only working with adb command line interface. No touch screen activity.
start by looking at the threads here. You will find twrp thread there.
So I've got Android 10 up and running...so can I just go ahead and root with magisk? Or will that mess up what I just did?

aosp has root built in. If you prefer majisk, you need to first remove the included -su, and then need to use PHH-Majisk, not standard version.
Information on that should be found in gsi thread. It is not device specific.
ok so i had 10 working without twrp.....went to flash twrp...flash success....reboot to recovery...screen went black and CAN NOT get the device to power back on.....no vibrate no power no nada......wtf do i do?!?!?!

you do know the screen in twrp has long delay before turns on. Do you have adb access to device?
if twrp is dead to adb, then
not sure why it would do that. but , i would first flash stock recovery with spflash tool

everything is dead....phone no power or vibration while pushing buttons...no reaction when charging....adb says no device....fastboot the same
ive tried spflash tool but since computer isnt even detecting device, no luck.......im so upset. i just bought this phone.....the only kind of life i get is when plugging into windows laptop the connected "doop" sound for connected and then about 5 seconds later the same sound for disconnect.....repetitively and its driving me crazy
when trying to install the vcon drivers for spflash as the log is running says finish because its not detecting, but then says detected and drivers are newer what is trying to be installed...then not detected again

That repeating sound is sign of bootloop.
Spflash tool is the recommended repair tool.
Download the factory restore package,
Extract the downloaded file.
Open flashtool, select scatter file from the extracted download. Ensure tool is on "download only" mode
Clear all select boxes in the tool window. Put check only in the recovery line.
Press download button, plug USB into phone. The bootloop in the phone is enough to make connection start.
What twrp did you use, where did it come from. Did you verify md5 of the downloaded file.
The only twrp I found was the one I shared, and it did not cause that kind of issue for me. So maybe you did something that you didn't mention?
I think I found the culprit... I download a file called "twrp" that actually turned out to be orangefoxrecovery... So I'm pretty positive that that's what caused it... Also, I've got a green check mark that says download OK.... Yellow bar at bottom of screen says recovery download flash 100%... What is my next step sir...?

Oh, last step is unplug USB. Then long press power button.
10 second should do. But maybe 20

Same happened to me, ended up fixing issue by using spflah tool (latest) and updated stock rom (mrmazak posted it) ?
I haven't bought the N1 yet but just might thanks to @mrmazak testing! Anyone tried Q v204 yet? Also curious if PHH regular Pie is bug free.
mrmazak said:
PHH aosp gsi confirmed to boot on BOLD-N1.
Need to be fully stock
--boot
--vendor
--recovery
Restoring device to factory condition , see this thread
Download PHH-AOSP 10
Download will be a compressed file *.gz , ectract the *.img file from inside
.
Code:
fastboot flash system **extracted-GSI.IMG**
fastboot oem reboot recovery
Perform factory reset inside stock recovery.
my tests trying to complete these steps with twrp all end with unknown imei.
V203 boots with only found issue is the fingerprint sensor Not working. For me i feel mtk devices are not secure anyway, the fingerprint sensor is more of a gimmick, so if it is not working, i do not care.
Current version v204 not tested by me yet.

Do not tell me in v 203 which version to download? I tried several but all to no avail
elephone p8000
any insight as to why every computer i plug my bold n1 into it shows up as a elephone p8000?
and on that note, say i found a working twrp for the elephone p8000 would that be possible?
i lost my root and android 10 due to bootloop. i used spflash to restore stock pie firmware. but now no matter what method or gsi or rom i try to flash my phone just will not accept it. The flashing is always successful, but upon reboot, i get a yellow/green screen flash followed by boot anim boot loop? any idea what would be causing this? i cant for the life of me figure out why my phone wont accept any system imgs i try to flash..

Elephone p8000 is at least 3 years old. And would not think twrp from it will work on your bold n1.
As for why your PC shows your bold n1 as different phone, I can only guess that your PC drivers are somehow modified.
Or your phone is maybe not stock?
Still very new to the community, so please bear with me if I miss something or make any mistakes.
Trying to flash havocOS
I flashed an unofficial version of twrp (for X657, made sure to disable verity on both vbmeta and vbmeta_system), then attempted to boot into twrp, with no luck (it just ended up booting into fastboot for some reason).
I then tried to boot into fastbootd, completely forgetting i had twrp still installed, to flash havoc from there (this is where i think i messed up, i remember reading somewhere that twrp prevents this)
Now my phone is stuck looping on the infinix logo
Tried the SP Flash Tool, but kept getting this error. Which I'm guessing is because the phone keeps restarting (mainly because "Disconnected!" shows up in the console between two instances of the same error).
Any advice?

Probably you haven´t to flash vbmeta to boot to TWRP but just when you are ready to boot to system.

You can flash the TWRP image through fastboot and then boot to it through commands.

This is the list of errors from SP Flash tool https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-439.html
Anyway, you have a tool specific for your device https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-9224.html
I guess this thread must be moved to Android General Questions.

I meant twrp prevents booting to fastbootd, it was after trying to boot into fastbootd using "fastboot reboot fastboot" that the bootloop started, right now I can't seem to get past the boot logo.

This method doesn't work either since the phone won't stay off for more than 7 seconds.
I'm not stuck in a bootloop as in the phone powers on, then gets stuck, or powers off again
The phone continuously powers on and off and nothing I do (apart from disconnecting the battery) stops it, even then, once the battery is back in it begins looping again...

You don't need to reboot to fastbootd, and you can't apply ADB commands either, because your device doesn't allow it due to random reboots and due to USB debugging is disabled right now.

Not true, this is the whole idea of this kind of tools either through SP Flash tool or Infinix tool you just have to GET device can be detected, this tiny portion of time will be enough for the tools can start its job, once the tool started the device get attached without a way to get out of it. To achieve this, prepare ALL that you need for tool to work even press flash/download, connect device with PC and apply the right combination key,
Prepare device manager on Windows and check which status of connection it is passing through to better understand which mode is lacking of.

You are not saying till now which model your device is, assuming that the bootloader is unlocked.

I tried again and that error seems to just be an issue with the linux version, it detected the phone fine and started writing to "super" on windows, but my laptop died, and now the phone isn't showing up on SP Flash, neither would it turn on at all.. but the charging indicator light comes on when I plug it in.

Well, if you interrupted the process, that's not good at all. The only you can do is keeping trying it, if your motherboard was not damaged.
hi guys i am DELTIERO from the Philippines did you allready solve the problem?

It would be better if you told us exactly what you did. Step by step. Then we can more easily assess how serious the error may have been.

so, I broke my system img today, the phone was in a bootloop and I downloaded the system img and boot img from c.mi.com, then I found out that there is actually a logo.img for the splashscreen and tried to create my own, I thought it would be alright if I flash it and I could get back to fastboot if its not working. well seems like that was wrong, now the phone is not booting anymore :'(
I there any way to the phone before it tried to start the logo.img?
On my old lenovo tablet there was a software called mtk tool that was able to flash the device before it starts anything
so I found out that I could try to boot my phone into the edl mode, so I can flash it with mi flash tool, but I would need to remove the phone cover for that, so it would be my last option, any other idea?
The question is whether the phone doesn't actually report anything when connected to a PC. In Windows detection is easy, how it is verifiable in Linux I have no idea. The phone can report to different kinds of drivers, including the COM port. EDL mode can be triggered by test points from the phone's motherboard, but sometimes also by button combinations. I don't know of a suitable button combination yet, but it is used from the off state of the phone when the phone is connected to a PC.
As for the tablet connection you mentioned, it was definitely an MTK CPU and it has different procedures to upload than Qualcomm. With us, you have to connect the phone first.
So I tried it on my windows and it also didn't show up in device manager. Anyway I will buy a phone repair kid and try to fix it in the EDL mode, thank you ^^
So my question is that is it possible to flash China rom to global version and get OTA upgrade to android 12 as I heard china devices are getting zui 13?
It's available here. If you attempt to flash it, make a .qcn backup of your nv data first. You can attempt to flash it with these instructions (7th post), only if you have all the drivers necessary for both LMSA/RSA & QPST/QFIL and know how to set it up correctly (firehose config needs to be set to not erase; you will need to set storage type to ufs).
Problem is i cant unlock the bootloader yet cause adb devices command doesnt show up the phone. Tried couple of drivers but didnt work.
You don't need to unlock your bootloader as it will most likely be relocked once you flash it. Do you have these (not just for OnePlus8, for all Qualcomm devices)?
Ok I was able to connect and unlock bootlader. I am downloading China rom now and will try flashing using the instructions. Hopefully it doesn't get bricked.
Make a backup of your nv data (QCN) first. Then do both edit 1 & edit 2 of the instructions posted and make sure to do it carefully, or if you're brave enough do only edit 2.
So I followed the instructions and after flash it went black screen. It doesn't boot or get detected by RSA. Only thing I can do is QFIL detects COM6 port when connected
Force shut it down, hold power until screen flashes on. You forgot to check "Reset after downloading". If that doesn't work you will need to use the other firehose protocol (lite) and that should restore it to a booting state.

I think its in EDL mode cause nothing else happens. Do you use telegram or whatsapp?
Holding power doesn't do anything? It should at least shutdown and reboot and if the screen briefly flashes then yes it is in EDL. You will need to flash it back to Global or whatever was previously on it. Did you unlock the bootloader first or not? That might have been the issue.
Nope nothing happening when holding shutdown. When I hold for 15 sec then it resets phone but always black screen. I can understand that it reset from QFIL cause COM port gets disconnected then reconnects. I think its hardbricked now and there is no QFIL rom I could find so have to take service center then...

Okay, try flashing it again with the firehose config option checked "Reset after Downloading". You used EDL to flash it the first time, right? If you still get a black screen you will need to flash the original Global firmware back onto it. You state that RSA doesn't find it? Did you unplug and plug it back in or leave it plugged in?
One other thing you might of forgot to change, storage type to UFS.
I tried firehose flash many times but keep getting sahara fail error or process fail. Storage type was always ufs I never touched it
Use firehose lite and check to see if device manager shows any yellow exclamations now.
Tried lite now, there is android device in device manager with yellow
Is it possible for you to connect remotely via teamviewer or do you know someone that can fix if I pay?
You can fix it. Just try updating the driver automatically and see if it finds it first

I think its out of my level now, would need some help with it
The driver package you installed will read the USB ID and should find it within DriverStore. Right click on the android device that has the exclamation and update the driver.
