Could you clarify what you mean by you can't get into it? Did the computer brick? or is the OS locked?

If it is bricked or, just simply the bios is locked; you can follow this detailed guide to reflash the firmware chip. Using a Eprom. I literally did it to my Lenovo 11e yesterday.

[Q] Onda Vi40(Allwinner A10) - USB Brick

Hoping some of you guys with a little more knowledge round here will be able to help with this one.
I believe I've USB bricked my Onda VI40 v3 16gb, I can't access the internal sd card and the device wont communicate with my pc when its connected by usb.
I have CWM Recovery installed and can access and flash roms from it but pretty much all of the guides to unbrick the usb require fastboot and I cant for the life of my work out how to get it on the Vi40.
Can anyone shed some light on how to access fastboot on the Vi40 or any other suggestions for unbricking the usb.
I have flashed multiple different roms on to the device in an attempt to fix it with no luck.
I can access an emulated terminal screen on the tablet when booted if thats of any help.
I have also tried the image_flash and mtd0.img fix but I don't know the devices CID so that doesn't work.
Thanks in advance.
Go back to the original rom
check what version is your onda vi40 by checking the serial numbers at the back (ex Xxxv3xxx) means its a v3.
then go to onda.cn and look for your version firmware.
you nay have to use Google translate.
now once you have downloaded the correct firmware version pls remember to rename the image file which is in Chinese to any English name. hmmm on second thought go to slatedroid.com and search for the onda forums they have a detailed English guide to help you.
don't panic, the same thing happened to me on my onda vi10 elite but my mistake was flashing a custom firmware. just like you I lost some partitions but when I flashed the original 4.03 v1.1 firmware and selected format the tablet is fine again.
Vi40 16gb v3 - can you flash using osx?
Hi all, my vi40 was connected to my MacBook pro the other night ttransfer some mp3s and I think I may have turned Off USB mode on the tablet before unmounting.
Now every time I try to install an app I get the "no space left" type message altjough there's about 15gb of space left.
Almost like permissions won't allow write
Downloading from play store starts but never completes
I'm thinking may be best to reflash the firmware?
I only have macs though.
If I have a mate with a vi40 same model would I be able to clone his onto my tablet using mac carbon copy cloner app maybe?
Cheers
Chris

Ps every time I turn off and reboot it reverts to Chinese too
Easy, run BootCamp on your Mac, I have bootcamp on two of my macs and they run windows 7 pretty nicely

Hi ,
Have you tried to reflash with livesuite ? if not then do it with a stock rom and reflash cwm from there no ? remember to enable "usb mode" by pressing menu key then plugging the tablet to the pc ( the menu key act as a temporizer for the tablet to be detected in that mode afaik)

[Q] TF201 Briked, only APX

Hello all.
I have an Asus TF201 bricked.
I readed a lot of forums, and nothing to do for now.
My Asus was fall in brick after install cwm, and now, only can reboot in APX.
When I reboot normal or fastboot, it only show logo and stop.
I can't enter in fastboot, adb dont detect my device.
Wheelie detect but I havn't got blob.bin, so I can´t use nvflash.
Arggg!
Is there any solutions?

Hi!
I have the same problem.
Somebody can hepl us please!! Thank you
I downloaded Tegra Android Developer Pack and image "dalmore" where are some utilities to generate encrypted necessary to enable executing commands in the boot. These are: nvsecuretool.exe or nvsbktool.exe.
but anyway the correct key is needed.
I used the calculator sbk but do not know if this works only for Acer tablet with tegra2.
A desperate chance. would take the sbkcalculator, and the apk asus application to unlock the boot, and test if there is any clue as to how you can make the sbk from cpuid on this model.
but I have no hopes for it.
I hope someone knows how to get the sbk from the cpuid for asus tf201.
why? why is so hard to find files to unbrick tf201?, ****ing secure boot, links deads
sometimes what is legal is not fair,
sorry but my skills are a dried **** as my translator
i try to find a .bct no encripted to build the blob.bin with my doubtful sbk from sbkCalc, but nothing,
I know it's possible, but I also realize that I will not be able to do.

I'm sorry, but it is only possible to un-brick a hard-bricked TF201 by using files that have been created on your own device with NVFlash.
Did you have nvflash enabled before you bricked? If not then you have a paper weight.
Check out my website for encouragement....
www.projectintercession.blogspot.com
Yes i enabled nvflash before brick, but i dont copied the blob.bin o any other file from the root backup folder to my pc.
i dont find it, maybe i delete carelessly when try install kitkat in the tablet.
tremendous fail !!.
If you bricked without having your NVflash blob files backed up, you're out of luck at the time of this writing. For a HARD BRICK, which you are experiencing, the ONLY way to recover if with those blob files. I have mine on google drive, dropbox, and on my PC for safekeeping.
I sold the prime I managed to brick for parts on ebay. I got $100 for it, but that was well over a year ago. There are better tablets out there, and most of them definitely put this old guy to shame. I would suggest upgrading your hardware, as the device you have is no longer usable.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this is the chance you take when you unlock bootloaders, hack and flash ROMS, root, etc. Sometimes $h!7 happens. That's life.
Hello,
I have the same problem.
TF201 bricked !
Unable to go into the bootloader, so unable to go on fastboot !
I never activate nvflash so i dont have my blob file.
I'm sofwtare programmer, i think we could fin any way to hack nvflash or a wayt patch any blob file in order to be compatible for our device....
Please, union made strong ! We need to create or get a hack in order to use correctly APX!

Interresting post...you could have the sbk on the tabs sticker...
But the question is...how patch a blob file in order to use the NVFlash....
I'm software programmer, maybe i can help you dude !!

How to remove EncroChat OS on my Oneplus X ?!?!

Hi there , I have a Oneplus x. It had been remote wiped but still has some strange difficult software. Posted this problem to the Oneplus Forum but have had no response, thought XDA would be more qualified!
From what I can tell it's a Oneplus x with the software on the phone with a high-security version of Android. It's called EncroChat and from their website (encrochat.network or encrochatsure.com) it looks like it removes the recovery from the phone and replaces it with an EncroChat OS (some kind of Cyanogen) that you can boot to in addition to the Android OS.
Well I assume during the remote wipe something went wrong with the software and the phone no longer really functions. It boots up fine but can't connect to Wifi, cellular, not detected when connected to my PC, and has no real apps to speak of. I think most of the device's drivers are missing. Trying to boot to recovery instead boots to their EncroChat OS which is locked behind a password (wich I have) but anyway you can do nothing in it.(no wip, no factory reset)
I can get to fastboot and my PC will detect the phone then but running the bootloader unlock command doesn't work, the phone just reboots into the locked EncroChat OS. My idea now is to try and hardbrick the phone and then re-do everything on the phone over again, but I can't figure out how to do that. Does anyone else have any ideas?
If the bootloader is locked, you wouldn't be able to flash a custom recovery. But there's a special recovery software for Snapdragon chipsets, I'll look up for the link and LYK

{Help} How to root RCA Viking Pro RCT6303W87m7 ?

Andriod versio 6.0
build # RCT6303W87m7 or manual shows (RCT6303W87mdk)
I try every root app try to get root, but they all fail. even supersu.zip
mirco usb connect to pc, i can not find the driver,
recovery mode i backup system into sd card and transfer to my pc but i cannot open it from my pc

1. hold the 'power'+'volumeUP' buttons until you get into recovery mode
2. once in recovery mode, go to and select 'Reboot to bootloader'
3. when the 'Fastboot mode' message appears at the bottom of the screen, plug in the USB-A male to male cable to the PC
4. if you have your device manager open, you will notice that it is recognized as 'Android Phone'/'Android Sooner Single ADB Interface"
i tried rooting with three different 'one-click root' pc applications: iRoot(v1.8.8), Kingoroot(v1.5.0), and King Root(v3.5)
these are the results i got:
-iRoot: it connects but the message reads 'Not support mode'
-Kingroot: it detects the device and trys to connect but gets stuck in a loop trying to connect
-Kingoroot: this detects the device as 'HTC Device'. i click the 'Root' button and it trys to root, but it only gets to 19% and then it fails
i'm theorizing that maybe if i get some different drivers for the pc or maybe making sure that the 'one-click root' applications are the latest versions might help. i dont know, we'll see.
again this is for the RCA RCT6303W87M7 running Android 6.0.
if anyone tries this and has more success, please let me know.
so to update on this, updated and installed the latest versions of the 'one-click root' applications and got the same results as before. let me know if anyone else tried this.
this is for RCA Viking Pro, model RCT6303W87M7, Android 6.0

I have not rooted anything without a how-to. Prehaps someplace there is a how-to to do this but this is what makes sense to me:
My New Motivation:
At this point my issue is that the unit has not had any updates including security since i purchased it. I really expect more and it's to the point where I feel it might actually be more secure rooted than not.
Originally
I just searched , saw it could not be rooted easily and was like whatever.
Ideas about how to get started
Get the adb tools working and using those get as much information from the prompt as possible without root and share it all.
If factory ROM images are around or can be backed up from device then prehaps a disassembly of the ROM images and examination of settings files will reveal any interrupt hooks for getting root that are as of yet undiscovered.
Gleaning any information from online sources .. prehaps a tear down of the unit, we need to find the most similar models to this model family.
See if there is any information available from the OEM. Determine who did the Android build. ....
What do you think?

Hello,
I have a Lenovo Z5s. I wanted to install new android rom like Pixel Experience
I managed to unlock the bootloader with adb fastboot.
I succeeded in flashing TWRP recovery 3.3.1-0529 for my device.
I've downloaded Pixe Experience GSI rom available here https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5...evelopment/lenovo-z5s-pro-twrp-3-3-1-t3953346
I have copied and pasted the Pixel Experience rom (.img file) on my SD Card.
With TWRP, I have wiped necessary files for a clean install.
I have launched the installation of the rom, installation was complete, the phone has reboot, I show Pixel Experience boot sequence with Google logo. The process asked me a password (Encrypted?) . I decided to reboot the phone.
Now, the phone is blocked with a bootloop in recovery mode. I can't access anymore to TWRP recovery. (Erased?)
To explain clearly the situation: I have the menu showing these options: Restart bootloader > Recovery mode > Power Off > Boot to FFBM > Boot to QMM I> Start
FastBoot Mode
PRODUCT_NAME - sdm710
VARIANT - SDM EMMC
BOOTLOADER VERSION -
BASEBAND VERSION -
SERIAL NUMBER - ********
SECURE BOOT - yes
DEVICES STATE - unlocked
No Bootloader, no Baseband.
All of the options return the phone back to the same menu.
The situation seems to be critical (phone bricked) and I can't do anything and I don't know what to do. Is there a chance to save my phone?
Your help will be precious to make my phone work.
Thanks in davance . Best regards.
