Hello, having done nothing to brick my x96 mini(never been to recovery mode), I tried to boot it in recovery mode by putting a pin in to the AV port. Unfortunately, the Tv box only erases data by showing the erase data screen without me being able to access other aspects of recovery mode. In need of urgent help, Thank you in advance

Unfortunately, Not yet. Looking for any advice though
X96mini not recovery mode. It only erasing
i have the same problem. U solved It??
I kind of "solved" installing the app called Terminal Emulator, once installed I typed "reboot recovery" and pressed enter, it took few seconds but it booted in the recovery mode of the android box.
It looks like an even simplier version of the "classic" recovery mode by android (the one with the green android robot on the background), but at least it appeared and it looks like working (turn off and reboot) and having the same options as the "classic" recovery mode
Sadly I haven't tried anything yet (right now, I'm having issues with Burn Sd Card Maker program), as the "update from sd card" option, but I hope it will work in someway
(I know that the last post it's old, but I discovered it few hours ago and I hope it could someone ahaha)

LG Escape running 4.1.2
here is the progression of events:
1. rooted device
2. root seemed successful and no malfunctions
3. backed up all apps and system data with Titanium backup
4. the lg escape has no way to unlock the bootloader, so I tried various other methods. one of which was entering recovery mode via terminal commands. this is basically a hard reset, and it wiped all my data
5. I restored all my apps and data from my external sd card with titanium
My best guess is this is where something went wrong
6. upon restoration it prompted me to reboot the device
7. reboot passes manufacturer logo, but resets when AT$T logo appears
8. as stated earlier, there is no way to enter recovery mode during boot.
9. there is a hard reset during boot, but mine will not work, as it requires touching buttons which do not seem to be active in my stage of the boot sequence
so, I understand this does NOT mean my phone is bricked, but I don't know how else to get it to boot back up, or what is even causing the boot loop, as I DO NOT HAVE ANY CUSTOM ROMS flashed. any help here is very appreciated!
EDIT: so I have attempted to use adb on my pc to reboot into recovery from there, but it occurred to me that while I was in recovery the first time, I never checked "usb debugging". as a result my adb console commands cant even see my device. any way to turn on usb debugging while locked in a boot loop?
also, I can get it to enter download mode. I was hoping I could just reflash the firmware to it without needing to enable usb debugging, but have no clue how to do that while locked out of the phone.
I realize this is a very specialized set of questions, but it is necessary to ask here as the most people will see it. im open to any ideas

i have now tried to flash the firmware while in download mode using a less than legitimately obtained lg R&D tool. however, i need V10F_00.kdz and i am facing a bit of censorship. any kind soul willing to host this file on dropbox or similar so i can download it?
Usually devices have a button combination to press when powering on to get into different modes. Maybe try searching for the button combination of your phone on Google? Try ' lg escape button recovery ' ?

believe me i have. the only combo i can get to is download mode. there is a combo for a hard reset, but my touch buttons arent active during boot.
The phone was working fine until the battery was empty. I tried to charge it and turn it on, but it's stuck at the Samsung logo splash screen. Holding the power button only restarts the device, so to turn it off I'll have to take the battery out. I don't know how to fix this, and if a factory reset is the only option, I need to backup my data first which I currently don't know how to either (without accessing the OS).
I've got to the Android System Recovery 3e menu and tried clearing cache, which did not help. The option to do a factory reset is also there, but I need to backup my data first, and I don't even know if this will fix the problem.
I'm also able to enter download mode.
When connected to my PC it detects an unknown device named 'samsung_android", and it shows up in adb. I've tried doing a backup through adb, but it wanted me to unlock the screen to accept the backup, which I could not, because I'm stuck at the splash screen.
Is there anything I can do to save my data? Anything through adb? Install root (never done this before)?

Hey mate, can you get into the recovery mode? Try flashing the TWRP recovery and boot by pressing power button + home button + volume up and find an option to mount your USB storage via USB cable and see if your phone's folder tree is available from the Windows Explorer and hopefully you can backup your data by then. Just make sure you have all the drivers ready.
Hope that helps.

Yeah, I can get into recovery mode. But how do I get the TWRP to my phone? Do I have to put it on my external memory card and then load it from there?
And I could only find it for a S2 Exhilarate SGH-i577 device. Does it matter if my phone is a S2 GT-I9100?
I've never rooted my phone earlier. Is a root necessary to flash a ROM?

Correct. Put the TWRP zip on your external and flash it normally via recovery mode such as CWM not the android 3e recovery. Or find an odin flashable zip for yoyr device.
I am very sure there is one for I9100 because I ran into the exact same problem before and managed to figure it out. You just have to search for it can't give you a link because I'm on mobile now.
You need to root your phone in order to install a new recovery such as TWRP/CWM or even flash new kernel and ROM.
Good luck.
Hi guys, I really need your help.
I'm new at this rooting stuffs and I tried to root my Oppo Neo 5.
I tried so many softwares like OneClickRoot, FramaRoot, and Kingroot but none seemed to work.
So I resorted to an app called oppo tools
It worked at first but I got really annoyed when my status bar suddenly colored to red when my phone discharges to 15% so I unrooted my phone and rooted back again. I really thought that was going to fix my problem but that's where the bootloop issue started.
I tried to flash some custom recovery zip but it failed since I only have a stock recovery.
But the thing is, I found a guide that says to rename the clockworkrecovery img to PG86IMG.zip.
So I did tried that and as soon as I flashed the zip from my stock recovery, my phone hanged.
I long-pressed the power button to restart and boot into recovery mode but nothing seems to happen.
I'll try to explain a bit more on how it looks when I boot my device.
When it boots normally (I mean not pressing the volume to enter recovery mode) it will only show the logo but when I try to go into recovery mode it will show the logo with a little text on the lower left portion "Recovery Mode"
Before I flashed the PG86IMG.zip, recovery mode was still working and the charging screen when off is working too.
but after I flashed the zip, every time I try to recovery mode the logo shows up with the little text but RECOVERY MODE isn't working. When I charge my phone it automatically boots up and shows the logo and text like it's trying to go recovery mode (I'm just trying to charge? It's going to recovery mode)
I tried using "adb devices" on cmd but it's not detecting any devices.
I'm really out of ideas guys, I know not all people use this model but what would be your suggestion?
A suggestion on how to fix this would really be appreciated :good:
I'm sorry I'm really new at this, please correct me if I did something wrong starting this thread. :angel:

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't notice.
Lately I can't access the recovery mode but now
I'm currently on Boot-loop and I can enter into recovery.
The ColorOS recovery mode only have limited function that I can mess around.
It only has the apply update, wipe data and cache, reboot, power off and system file verification.
As always I already did wipe the data and cache but nothing happens. Still boot-loop.
What should I do?

You made a soft brick, not to worry flash it with correct stock firmware, if the phone is in warranty than ask them to do flash, this will take approx 10-30min. If it isn't in warranty than you should try it own or else pay some amount and the rest they will do.

My phone model is Micromax Knight 2 E471.
It was working fine but it all happened all of a sudden. I was trying to connect my phone to the computer to access some file. Suddenly, I got a message on my screen that Encryption interrupted with some text and a button to reset. I rebooted the phone but it had the same message and I had no option but to click on the Reset button. From that time until now... it does not want to boot.
Then I searched for it on google and tried to start with two key combinations Power+VolumeUp and Power+VolumeDown. Power+VolumeDown. does not do anything but Power+VolumeUp get me to a recovery screen that says failed to mount /system, /sdcard, /cache and so many things (screenshot attached).
From the recovery option, I tried
1. wipe data/factory reset - doesnt do anything
2. wipe cache partition - doesnt do anything
Then I took it to Micromax service center. They said, OS needs to be reloaded. I paid 250/- and got it reloaded but still the issue was not resolved. Now there is a new problem. When I start the phone, it appears that it is rebooting but there is absolutely nothing on the screen. The screen is completely blank and black. The strange part is that, it keep vibrating after every minute or so which makes me feel that it is caught in a boot loop but nothing is displayed on the screen. The Service center guys says that there could either be a display issue or motherboard issue and in both cases, the hardware cost would be more. But I feel it is a software issue.
I again googled it and got to a page https://firmwarefile.com/micromax-e471 where I downloaded the firmware. The firmware folder had a file "8939_fastboot_all_images" which is a windows batch file. I installed the driver, executed the 8939_fastboot_all_images batchfile and went to the recovery screen I got from Power+VolumeUp key combination. Selected reboot to bootloader. I got lot of things in the ms-dos window but still the problem is unresolved.
I appreciate if someone here could help me what to do next.
Thanks
Something wrong with the mount points, maybe? Have you tried flashing a custom recovery like TWRP?

I cannot do anything with a screen with no display.
Can you tell me how to flash a custom recovery when the phone is in boot loop
Thanks
Your phone seems to have a Snapdragon SOC. Sorry but I'm pretty much useless with that. If it was an mtk you could have removed the battery and use SP Flash tool. Maybe someone else can help you with this.
Good luck.

First, dont post something like "bump", you can get ban.
2nd, if you cant flash, this tool may have. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71705583&postcount=5
This is only one tool can flash rom in this situation. If it not work, it could be hardware issue, not software.
Edit: after install qualcomn usb driver, make sure your phone is turn off, hold volume down button while plug usb cable (some phone need volume up, some need both of them, some doesnt need any button). Remember dont touch power button. If pc detect your phone like Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader, you can using emmc.

Sorry for that!
First of all ToolStudio eMMC Download Tool link does not work. I downloaded the 50MB+ zip file and extracted, it asks for a password which I already put but it doesnt do anything.
Then I downloaded a downgraded version from here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B7SVwjaFGLv_by1OSlMtaU9tQVE but it does not work. mMMC Download or Multil Download does not show RAM, Boot Image etc. The comments on that page also shows that there are so many people who are unable to do it. Do you know of a reliable download source for ToolStudio eMMC Download Tool?
Or do you have any other solution?
Thanks
AM also facing that problem with e471
Always showing flashing successfully .
But booting into recovery mode..
Need solution dear
Hi all,
I own the Acer A3-B20 and had it rooted some time ago with Kingroot. Installed a system update by Acer a few days ago and since then the tablet only boots in Recovery Mode. Resetting to factory defaults does not help, the filesystem integrity checker shows a few modified files.
Only viable option in recovery mode seems flashing a new firmware and I tried to do so with the currently available offical ROM from Acer: "AV0L0.B3-A20.RV03RC06.WW.GEN1". Flashing starts successfully but ends in the android screen of death (lying robot with red triangle).
Does anybody have a better idea on what to try? I haven't been able to find another firmware to try except the aforementioned.
Cheers,
Jarek

Try Wiping your System partition then doing a Clean Install of the ROM using Fastboot.
Hopefully there will be a option in your Recovery to restart the device in boot loader mode(that's fastboot).
Hi,
Thanks for your help. Unfortunately I'm not able to enter bootloader mode. Recovery mode has an option "Reboot to bootloader" which causes the tablet to power down, nothing else happens.
Also, booting up with Power+Volume Down/Up (tried both) only boots to the same recovery mode.

To access the recovery menu on my B3-A20, I use the Volume-Down by itself; The Power+Volume-up combination starts a Chinese factory test/debug menu.
