You must still have access to fastboot, if you got your phone yesterday then I'm assuming you haven't unlock it yet, so have you tried the DLOAD method from sdcard?
Usually that fixes the issue since it rewrites the system completly.
If you don't have a link, here's a guide for you from dear @Merlin_99:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/how-to/root-how-to-install-update-t3841557
You can do everything there except this last part:
"Finally, enter to the project menu from dialer typing *#*#2846579#*#* ==> Software Upgrade ==> SdCard Upgrade.
Wait for the installation and before configuring the device enter in Recovery Mode (from the phone off, VOLUME-UP + POWER ON) and make Wipe Cache Partition, Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Reboot System Now. "
Because we need to be able to do it without powering on into the system since it's corrupted.
After you copied the files needed power off your device and then press POWER ON + Volume Plus + Volume Minus until a circle of EMUI appears and release them because the update progress has started.
That's all if you didn't use DLOAD method before.
Cheers,
AS

Star A2000 Android 2.2

Hey guys, I have a Star A2000 with Froyo rooted. While I was trying to modify my original status bar, the phone blocked and I had to reboot it. I rebooted it but for over one hour it's loading whithout booting into the homescreen. I tryed with the factory reset but nothing. I can't load any rom from Linux, and so I can't fully on the device. Any suggestion? I want to bring back everything! Anybody knows how I can do so? Without the flashing cable is it possible to restore or put back the original system and settings?
recovery menu
Turn off the phone
press vol up and power button in the same time
that will bring you to the recovery menu - press home key to see options
navigate trough options with vol up and down and meniu
take care - reset to factory my wipe your imei off. if you are lucky this might not happen
also read here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Chinese_Clones_MTK6516
I've tried this way all the time but it seems to don't work
Is there not an update.zip in other to install the original rom? Because I'm not with the flashing cable so I can't use it to flash. Is there any other way I can do it?
If you cant access the recovery by using power button + volume up key at the same time when turning on the phone then the recovery partition is not working (should show up with android ! screen or custom recovery) - If you cant boot in to the recovery menu or the system partition containing the OS you have likely bricked your phone, the only chance you may have in my opinion is a factory reset - which you say has failed or connect usb while phone is booting and hope you can get an ADB connection (which is possible due to a bug but only seems to work intermittantly - I have managed to fix a brick via this stroke of luck before)
Having a backup as well as a working recovery or system partition is the key to playing with your phone - one partition should always be working to restore the other when or if it fails.

I´m able to enter CW recovery menu using PWR+VOL.UP and navigate as well. I wiped all data, cache partition and try to restore all my backups one by one... Nothing brings back my OS... I still stucked into boot screen (the first one, i´m not entering in the boot_logo image...
After many tryes, i wiped all data again and made a factory reset using CW recory: Nothing...
I notice that i´m loose the factory recovery mode (PWR + VOL.Down)... And i also never made an IMEI backup. Could be that?
I apreciate any help. Any light in the end of tunel, hahaha
Kind regards!
------------------------------
Updating:
- I´m using the ClockworkMod Recovery V4.0.0.5.
- My CWM recovery is able to read my SD card, so i can put any .img or .zip file inside it.

Into "Mounts ans Storage" menu.
After I recovery one of my nandroid backups. Normal rebooting and.........................
NOTHING ! I´m still stucked into first boot img.
It´s normal this screen delays like 15 ~ 20min. to disapear?
Hi.
related with CWM I also have a weird issue.
My wife's old A2000 is now in my hands to play with it. The phone was virgin (stock rom no rooted).
I rooted the phone and installed cwm/rom manager.
The weird issue is:
1) If I click in Rom Manager option " Reboot into CWM" the phone reboot in CWM with all options working including rom backup.
2) starting with th phone off I press the keys power + vol.up Iget not the CWM but the "fatory Mode" green menu with 6 options (Full test, Test Report, Clear flash, version and Reboot).
3) pressing power + vol.down it simply boot normay the system.
What can be wrong with this "ex-virgin" A2000?

First of all sorry about my English. I wish I can do better.
I got the phone with the rebooting and base on the owner of the phone he said it started rebooting after an update.
Not sure what was of update to but the phone I got always rebooting during Android app optimization stage ( when it updating about 90 files or so) but it got reboot when updating to the file of 57th (So it was not actually working)
I watched and followed the youtube (how to unblock/unbrick galaxy i717) which it used the pda-odin-att-stock.tar file with the ODIN3 V1.85 (I guess that original ROM of AT&T (android version 2.3)
After successful unblock/unbrick the phone the phone actual worked but the problem still. It works but only 2 minutes and the phone reboots.
2/ test redbend fota is one the options you can choose after hard booting the phone using both up - down keys and power key (other options are to clear the cache, or wipe the data..)
That actually happened to me while testing out Bean Stalk(which btw AWESOME ROM). It would do a Random Reboot and continuously do that every 2 minutes or so. The way I fixed it was by doing the following steps:
1) Power off your phone. If unable to power off, remove and reinsert the battery.
2 )Press and hold between both Volume keys and the Power key at the same time until the phone vibrates, then release ONLY the Power key.
3)Continue holding the Volume keys until Samsung appears on the screen. Then release both volume keys.
The recovery menu will display.
4) Press Volume down to move to option 3, Wipe data/factory reset, and then press the Home key to accept.
5) Use Volume Up and Volume Down buttons to navigate in the menu and select Yes- Delete all user data.
6)Navigate to highlight OK and press the Home key to select.
7) Select Reboot system now.
PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THIS WILL DELETE EVERYTHING INSIDE YOUR SD CARD AS WELL! SO DO A BACKUP BEFORE ERASING EVERYTHING!

Could it be a battery issue? I mean if its not software, it might be hardware. Please check if the battery is fine? If you could elaborate the steps you took or the update process you followed, that would be great.
Don't worry we will definitely figure this out, i know how sad it can be when you are without your phone.

No. Surely it is not about the battery. Battery is full and hold the charge pretty well. As I mentioned I was re-installed the original ROM of the phone and there was nothing much to say about this procedure. After reinstalled the original rom the phone works but the problems is still same (rebooting after 2 minutes), before the the phone didn't work and just was in the updating stage but I guess the time of the updating file was also about 2 minutes.
I believe this is about the software than the hardware issue. I am thinking that I may want to install the newest ROM to see it will work or not but I am in the middle of some works right now and have no time for it. So I am just wait to see if there is anyone had similar issue and follow their instruction. Thank you you all.
I am sure you either have hardware issue or in most circumstances it is a user issue.
Is there any possibility you have not read everything or something you are not understanding?
Those of us responding do so because our methods are tried and true. Nobody else is having this issue.
I just ask is it possible?
Have you confidently tried all suggestions with no shortcuts? Even the smallest deviation can lead to the biggest problems
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Here is a suggestion:
Please go to stock rom. After Odin restarts the phone...do not touch. Let the phone sit there for a little bit. Then if it restarts u might need to format your internal sd card after formatting system, data, cache and then install rom.
I had to flash it

honor 5X update freeze/loop - no TWRP recovery possible

Hello everybody,
since saturday I have a really big problem. Until now I tried to find a similar problem from an other person in the internet in order to fix mine but that was not possible.
So in my last hope I am now writing it down here. Hopefully someone can help me:
The phone was/is rooted and has TWRP as recovery installed (v3.21). The software is still the original EMUI.
On saturday my Huawei Honor 5x (Model KIW-L21) gave me the notification that there is an software update avaible. So I backuped everything with TWRP to my sd-card and copied it to the computer. After this I ran th eupdate. The update downloaded the new software, then rebootet to the recovery, installed the update.zip automaticly and rebootet again. Then there was written on the screen "Huawei software installing ... DO NOT unplug usb or press any key!". Also there was "0%" all the time. It did nothing. also the phone was not connected with usb.
After an hour I long pressed the power button. after two seconds there was the text "Warning: The powerkey is long pressed, please release powerkey to avoid system crash" displayed. I pressed it longer and the phone turned off.
Now I have the following problem. When the phone is turned off, I can:
press the power button: the phone starts, the "honor ... android" logo is shown but nothing more happens. ("fastboot devices" -> no devices found, "adb devices" -> device found but no permission to enter commands)
press the power button and the volume up button and the volume down button at the same time: normally this should take me in the recovery mode, mut it doesn't anymore. Instead the "EMUI" update screen is shown (see above "huawei software installing ..." with "0%") ("fastboot devices" -> no devices found, "adb devices" -> no devices found)
press the power button and the volume up button at the same time: I get a huawei menu with three buttons: "reboot", "wipe user cache" and "factory reset". I tried both (wipe and reset) wich both finished without an error. But nothing changes ("fastboot devices" -> no devices found, "adb devices" -> no devices found)
press the power button and the volume down button at the same time: I get an "eRecovery" menu from huawei with three buttons: "Reboot", "power off" and "Recover with latest software". The last button lets me connect to my wifi and then "searching for packages", with failes all the time. ("fastboot devices" -> no devices found, "adb devices" -> no devices found)
This problem occures with and also without the sd-card. Also there is no "update.zip" or "update.app" on the sd-card.
I really hope somebody can help me. I only need to get into the recovery. If I am there I can recover the backup or install a new ROM. That would be no problem for me. But at the moment I get nothing :crying:
Or maybe a tool to reset the phone completly? to start over from the beginning?
greetings,
Christopher
PS.: Thanks for your efford.
PSS.: Sorry for my bad english, I really try my best and hope that you understand what I am trying to say.
Same problem here... Please help us :'(

to enter fastboot mode
1. Place the device in fastboot mode:
Turn off the device. (then wait for at least 2 seconds) For a mobile phone, press and hold the volume down and power keys simultaneously for at least 10 seconds (for a tablet, press and hold the volume up and power keys).
2. If the above operations do not switch the device to fastboot mode, please try the following steps:
Turn off the device. (then wait for at least 2 seconds) Then insert the USB cable and press and hold the volume down and power keys simultaneously for at least 10 seconds.
Step 2 worked for me every time

AGAIN AND AGAIN, when you receive an update notification you MUST first flash back to stock recovery or it won't update with TWRP !!!
- To recover a stock recovery you need to boot onto download mode/your bootloader mode (Power+Volume Down) : plug your phone to your computer and type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img".
From there you will loose your connexion with your computer. So unplug your phone and reboot manually holding down the Power button for some seconds.
If the system ever update your phone, BE VERY PATIENT !
The above note should probably part of a sticky !!!
If you don't get back to your Home screen and if you need TWRP back, reboot again onto download mode/your bootloader mode (Power+Volume Down) : plug your phone to your computer and type "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" (or whatever the custom recovery name).

The problem a lot of people were having is TWRP flashed enough of the update that they lost custom recovery and had no way to get to the bootloader / fastboot ... that's why I posted the instructions above and in about 4 other threads.
Did you ever get your phone updated ?

"fastboot & rescue mode" with a working usb connection.
What is the next step? If I now flash the stock recovery, does the phone manages to finish the system update?
Or should I flash the twrp recovery and not the stock revocery?
greetings,
Christopher
EDIT:
I flashed the stock recovery and also the twrp recovery. both times i startet the phone and hoped the installation of the new software will go on. But it didn't.
So my problem is still resistant. so what can I do? How do I stop the update from blocking my recovery? I do not need the update. maybe I can reset my device with the fastboot access somehow?

All the full updates are in the file depot
Use stock recovery plus the full update for your version.
You have to hold volup + voldown + power to start the update
Refresh TWRP / Root and your good to go

I found the stock recovery at https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=51004 but I have no idea what update I must use and how to use it.
Could you please give me a concrete link with a little introduction? Do I have to copy the update file to my sd-card? or do I have to use the "fastboot update *" command?
(Most of the files are for "KIW-L24" but I have a "KIW-L21" ... is there a significant difference? Od do I can use also the other files?)
Also, don't I have to stop the wrong update first?
greetings,
Christopher

I tried these "UPDATE.APP":

http://www.androidvillaz.com/2016/0...honor-5x-to-stock-lollipop-firmware-b130.html
both did not work. I copied them into the "dload" folder in the root of the sd-card and started the phone with volup+coldown+power.
The only thing the phone said was "Software install failed! ... Press powerkey to conrifm ... Shutdown system now".

if the update.app doesn't work you'll have to flash TWRP and the Stock Rom and wait like everyone else that's stuck trying to update the L21

The only way I know to flash a ROM, is to go over TWRP.
So I now did the following:
Phone power off
connect to pc
voldown+power
in the fastboot flash the recovery from twrp
shutdown
copy the "customromtemplate-5x-plk21-b130-r3.zip" to the sd-card
volup+coldown+power what normally starts twrp, but only the huawei update manager is shown
I only need twrp, no update and nothing else.
What options do I have left, because "flash a ROM" is not working ...
How can I stop this terrible update that is blocking my twrp?

and your rom should load

I flashed TWRP using "kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img". I also used this one last time (one month ago) and it worked then and also now.
Flashing was successful, but when I press volup+power I get a huawei menu.
At the top there is the "EMUI" circle and below there are three buttons:
Reboot system now
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
I can move around in this little menu by using the volume keys.
But this is not TWRP.
And normally I enter the recovery by using volup+voldown+power. But this is currently blocked by the update progress from huawei.

Are you rebooting from the fastboot screen?
From the white boot loader screen hold volume up and power for 15 seconds

The last six hours I tried to fix my phone ... again. One thing I did really helped a little:

This is the polish version of manual, I will write you how to do it:
1. Download ADB and Fastboot
2. Extract to c:/adb
3. Download from this thread firmware for you (extracted version!) http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/stock-kiw-l24-l21-t3312684 If you have problem what firmware you have to install, take look at the back side of phone, at the down you will se KIW-L21 or 24 (or another). Copy all files to adb folder
4. Rund adb program
5. Write in the command line: cd c:/adb
6. Connect phone to usb to download mode (power and vol- combination)
7. Write in fastboot command: fastboot flash recovery recover.img (or recovrey .img, see the file and type it name) - wait for install
8. And now: If the flash is succesfull, reboot the phone to recovery (power and volume+) and wipe all data. Phone have to work.
But if flash is not succesfull, plug again usb with download mode
9. Write this commands: fastboot flash cust cust.img -wait for install
and: fastboot flash system system.img -also wait, system.img can took a while
10. Now you will enter recovery and wipe all data
11. Again plug usb cable and install firmware with those commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash system system.img

With this I am not able to start my phone again. It will boot normally and I have a clean android. No userdata and no root.
So I now did the same like last month:
Unlock OEM -> not necessary, because it is already unlocked
install twrp with fastboot
reboot to twrp and there it is again
I did exactly what you said and also I did exactly the same thing I did last month but both times there is the same result: TWRP will not show up.
The "stock recovery" is blocking twrp in some sort of way. I can do whatever I whant ... volup+power out of the fastbook mode, or with "adb reboot recovery", or other ways ... twrp will not show up.
How is this possible? I also tried different twrp images. (The "kiwi_twrp_2-27_recovery.img" and "kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img" out of your repository, and also the "twrp-3.0.0-0-kiwi.img" and "twrp-3.0.2-0-kiwi.img" from the twrp website itself ... always the same result: no twrp)
I am really at the end of my knollage

First off thanks for the very informative post.
Without actually having the phone in my hands I'm also stumped at what to try next.
After flashing TWRP and still in the boot loader unplug the USB before you reboot with power and volume up.
That's all I can think of right now

I must thank you for all your help
So I now read some more articles and tried some things. So there are old problems solved, but also new problems came up:
For me it is no longer possible to flash a recovery that is permanent. I have no idea why but I am ignoring it, because I can start the phone with voldown+power into bootloader and then use a usb-connection to enter the following command:
fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-kiwi.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So i can enter twrp temporary and because I do not need TWRP this often, that is ok for me.
BUT:
with the extracted "UPDATE.APP" and flashing some "*.img" files manually (see my last post), I have a more or less working "L21C432B130" version of android.
So now there is everything original (recovery, system, ...).
The update to "L21C432B140" is still not working. But that is also something I can live with.
So now I whant to restore my old system in order to have my old data/apps/... .
So I enter my temporary TWRP, go to Restore and select my old backup. Then the restore starts. Restoring EFS, Restoring efs2, Restoring Recovery, Wiping System and Formatting System using make_ext4fs. All of this in this order are successful. But the last operation "Restoring Data" failes with the following error message:
extractTarFork() process ended with error 255
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I searched on xda and found out, that this could be ANYTHING. I tried five or six different methods in order to fix it. In the end I am not sure what really fixxed it, but now I can restore my old update without any error. The phone now runs and I have all my old data.
There are four main differences on my phone to the time before I tried that damn update:
1. I have less internal storage
2. I have no TWRP permanently avaible
3. I can not Factory-Reset
4. I can not use a "UPDATE.APP" inside a "dload" folder on the sdcard
(the last two things always failes)
But as long as the android system now runs smooth again I can live with these things.
Is there maybe anything else I should be careful? maybe a known bug/problem that I have not seen yet?
The reason why I wanted to update in the first place was, that I have problems with my sd-card.
Some Apps do not allow to use the external storage. Easy Voice Recorder is the main problem. But also the Call Recorder has problems with it.
Is this a well known bug? Does a update helps? And if so, how do I update? (Now I know how to rescue my phone, so I could try it again xD )
Or does this problem gets solved with an custom ROM? If so, what good custom ROMs are out there for the honor 5x?
Or is this a problem that is not possible to fix on the honor 5x? Because these apps does not have this problem on my HTC One M9 ...
And thanks again so much for all your help

from your current state you can try flash recovery with TWRP by choosing install / image / your version of TWRP / choose recovery / swipe to flash
Now choose reboot / recovery
As for the sdcard try the sdcard fix for kit Kat in the play store. It works for some older apps.

You have to hold volup + voldown + power to start the update

I think I had the same issue. After OTA update, device requested a reboot. But it never rebooted completely and I got a message like this:

I took the SIM card off, connected a USB cable and launched the command:

I got the result:

So i set the current slot to a and rebooted the device:
Code:

Then, in Download Mode I pressed and held Volume Up and Power Key together until I saw No Command screen. At this moment I pressed and held Power Key and pressed Volume Up key until I saw the recovery options:

Once in the recovery menu, I selected Apply update from ADB and uploaded the Android 10 update with adb command:
Code:
adb sideload 29ad191f90eedc643ed008dc06c81ed3c5b5565a.zip
After applying the update, the next reboot took a while but finally the device started and I had not to wipe the data.

I managed to get to the Download mode successfully but then I am stuck at the highlighted step - cannot enter to recover menu to do sideload. Can you explain exactly how you did that ? Pressed power, released , and then pressed volume up? Or pressed sequentially and then released together ? Or pressed sequentially and released sequentially?
I did perform factory data reset earlier, not sure if this is causing my issues. Or maybe I am doing the key combination wrongly from your instructions...

Press both at the same time and don't release them until the "No command" screen appears. There will be a restart in-between screens.

If the phone is turned off, run the command and turn the phone on. The command will wait until the device is available.
Regarding the drivers, I have tested these commands from a linux machine where it is not necessary to install drivers.

After runinng a few days with Android 10 the 2019-12 patch update popped up. I installed and reboot the phone but I got a similar error when the phone upgraded from Android 9 to Android 10:

Factory data reset
I tried the same instructions than I posted before without success, this time with the patch: 04dbc995492eb40f43593f984e723ec6a9b90f0f.zip from android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/nokia_ctlsprout_crystal00ww/. Anyway, a factory data reset works and the phone is running again. But if you don't disable "System Settings -> System -> Developer Options -> Automatic system updates" the patch keeps trying to install and then you have to reset your device.
I will wait until another patch will be released.
After applying the update and installing it with adb success state 0. I have rebooted the system now.
Still it is prompting me the same "Cannot load Android System"
Do i need to wipe the user data as well?
I have the same problem today after I tried to reboot.
So I went through this page
1) Downloaded the tools and adb file.
2) Connected the phone to computer and my PC detects it for a brief moment of about 1 to 2 seconds.
3) When I run the .\fastboot.exe getvar current-slot command, it waits for detecting the device but nothing happens. I select the "try again"option while the phone is connected to PC and the fastboot command still waiting for device but nothing happens.
Any idea of how to proceed further or did I miss anything?
Note: I didn't try factory reset yet. I'm hoping to recover my data. I have a lot of photos and videos that I don't want to loose.
Hello, thanks a lot!
I tried both slots a & b but I still see version 9 on top of the android recovery screen. So I ddon't dare going further an apply update from adb...
How can I update to Android Recovery
Nokia/Crystal_00WW/CTL_sprout
10/QKQ1.190828.002/00WW_4_08B ?
It keeps getting worse and worse : on slot B i'm always stuck in "Download mode" and slot A still android recovery version 9...
Anyone an idea?

Same problem, I did the adb install for Android 10 and and as soon as the security patch gets updated, we are back to square 1 into the reset loop with each restart
still no google security january 2020 for nokia7.1 ?
Same here for my mother's phone, as soon as 01/2020 security update gets installed, phone gets stuck and need to reset. Had this three times now.
Disabled automatic updates now in developer options.
Please confirm if a fix was published or found.

Factory data reset
I tried the same instructions than I posted before without success, this time with the patch: 04dbc995492eb40f43593f984e723ec6a9b90f0f.zip from android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/nokia_ctlsprout_crystal00ww/. Anyway, a factory data reset works and the phone is running again. But if you don't disable "System Settings -> System -> Developer Options -> Automatic system updates" the patch keeps trying to install and then you have to reset your device.
I will wait until another patch will be released.

January security patch released.
i am getting an 'update package is older than the current build, expected a build newer than timestamp 1581332319 but package has timestamp 1573729404 and downgrade not allowed.'
i then tried the different zip file above and got 'package is for source build 00WW_4_08B but expected 00WW_4_08E.'
any ideas? i feel like i am so close to fixing this but just need the right update file!

No you are not! (Sorry to disappoint you, but I am in the same boat)
The instructions above are a bit outdated, the 04dbc995 file is 00WW_4_08B. There are other versions in https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-7-1/help/nokia-7-1-ota-update-ddls-t3866999/page9 for example d5c7c8ca7305ed19067b7e66b9b6525216161a90 is for version 00WW_4_08D, which was installed on my slot b.
But I could NOT find a file for 00WW_4_08E so I think we are stuck at the moment.
Greetings
I tried the file below and it says its for 00WW_4_08D! Anyone have the file for the 'E' version?

same story here
I've got the same problem. Something in the Jan update screwed up my wife's phone. It will do the update fine, but on the next boot, it is stuck and you have to wipe the phone. I've tried doing the update with adb. It appears to load fine, but on the next boot, same story. Nokia only suggests sending it in, and of course we're of warranty. Doesn't look like anybody has a feb update that will work with my phone either(wrong version). Does anybody know if you can skip updates? Like apply the feb, but not the jan one? Thanks.
Somehow I got the January update to take hold. Here's what I think I did, although I rebooted so many times, I am not entirely certain if this is the exact sequence of events.
1. Applied update as you normally would. Phone gets in boot-loop and eventually ends with the "enablefilecrypto" error.
2. Proceeded with wiping phone, got to boot. Enabled developer options rebooted with adb to fastboot.
3. Phone was on slot a, changed to slot b.
4. Rebooted to recovery by holding power and up volume. Then power + up volume to start recovery.
5. Sideloaded feb update from the url provided in the updated download thread on this forum. I verified that this url is the same that my phone provides. Note that on previous attempts I had tried installing the jan update, but that never worked and it always reverted back to dec update after the mandatory wipe. Feb update appeared to work, although it threw an error about logs not existing.
6. Now I rebooted phone. Not totally sure, but i think it went into a boot-loop (flashing "android one" screen every 10 seconds or so for a while) but finally came up with the ecrypto message, with option to wipe or retry. I wiped and phone finally booted. Once it booted and I got through the initial setup, I found that Jan update has been applied but not Feb. This is weird, as I don't think I ever got Jan update successfully installed on either a or b. At this point if I try and install the updates through the normal method, it will not work and the final result will be the ecrypto error message or worse! So I have turned off updates for now.
I did get into a bootloop once where it would only boot to the bootloader screen and most normal methods would not get me out of it. I found that if changed the active slot with fastboot, it would then start flashing the "android one" screen a few times. While it's doing that if I held down volume up and power it would eventually get to the recovery screen. From here rebooting seemed to eventually work.
Anyhow what a cluster of a situation. Nokia doesn't offer much help but to send it in for $58. Not sure I want to waste any more time on this thing.
