To unbrick your phone the fastest way is to unlock bootloader which takes you 10-15 mins, and fastboot flash any rom. Easy peasy.

i have bootloader unlock,i have try many firmware to flash via adb,but when i type fastboot reboot only led blink red for 2 sec and then green for 10 sec,after that the phone shutdown,if i try to turn on same thing,led blink red the green,i dont have any clue what is the problem

To flash a firmware you must use Fastboot commands NOT adb. ADB commands are for when android is already booted. First flash boot.img, recovery.img... etc and then reboot your phone. Its should be working or at least booting. You should check out the mega-thread recently posted in the general section. It might help you.

here what i use
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot(i have try all version based on single sim and dual sim,the same error,when is try to boot the led indicator blink red then green and is shutdown,if i try to turn on same error led indicator blink red then green,the only option that i have is just to putt the phone in fastboot/rescue mod,so i don't know what is the problem )

Wow ive never heard of that :/ Have you tried flashing recovery before cust? Thats what I usually do. And I also use mfastboot instead of fastboot.

I have balong bug in my phone and it doesnt really do anything, just a wrong build.prop but phone works perfectly, im on 565 single sim. Im sorry but a really have no idea on what is happening to your friends phone since ive never had that error. Maybe you could try talking to some more experienced users such as Sokkoban to see if he can help you. Sorry

charge battery. check if bootloader is unlocked correctly ( connect device to pc -> hold volume down while powering up)
open console and type
Code:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
you should get this
Code:
...
(bootloader) unlocked
OKAY [ -0.000s]
finished. total time: -0.000s
if that's the case...
install Twrp 3.0.2
boot into twrp (volume down and volume up while powering on)
wipe everything (dalvik/cache/data/system/internal)
unbrick.
to make everything easier here is a thread.
take those files. it's all prepared (just click once )
also sorry for the noob explaining. you probarly are wellkown with android but it's a custom by now

i have try with many firmware(extract files from update.app)but,none was work,every time the same error,I think it might be a problem with the partition,or maybe if i can find someone with version c113b130 and try to flash boot an recovery i will have a chance

it goes the same way.
as i told you try installing twrp first wipe everything and then flash it but do it in the order i gave you.
first boot.img
second recovery.img
third cust.img
fourth system.img
this problem occured before. (cant find the thread anymore) but it should work.
and the way is see it you have nothing to lose at this point so

I also told him that. Usually when I flash a rom I also flash recovery before custom, but for no reason at all haha didnt know it could cause a bootloop if done cust before recovery :/

If you can boot to TWRP recovery, then you can ADB push a ROM to recovery and boot it.

No, if you can boot to TWRP, as @rootSU said, you can move a ROM to internal and get up and running. Then you can go about unlocking.

Power off the device. Once completely shut down, hold power and volume down until bootloader screen appears. Then use the volume keys to select recovery. Then push power to select.
from your original post, it says your not running twrp anymore. have you tried just letting the phone try to boot up? have you tried reflashing twrp to your phone via fastboot. id try, and if its successful, id push a rom to my phone then. if not, try flashing a factory img.

HELP PLEASE! Stuck in bootloader, NEXUS 6

Hi, I wanted to flash the 5.1 update to my new Nexus 6.
I went all over the basic steps.
After I unlocked the bootloader I tried to flash the image with the flash-all command.
It failed, so I remembered maybe I forgot to click on USB debugging? (This confuses me because I think I shouldn't be able to unlock bootloader without this).
When I wanted to start android I locked it first, so I would unlock it afterwards and erase everything to start as new.
Whan I locked it, I could not unlock it again. I can't access Android, neither do anything else like factory reset nor Recovery Mode. I return to the bootloader as soon as I press anything.
There are red words at the top: AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure). Does this means anything?
Is there any way to force unlocking the bootloader? When I try it, the phone tells me to go to Developer Options but I can't access Android.
Please HELP! Is there any way to flash a rom or android again in locked state? Recovery?
Thanks for reading this and thinking about a solution! I really hope I won't be stuck forever in bootloader.
Uh oh... Were you trying to downgrade back to LRX22C from LMY47D so that you could upgrade to LMY47M, by any chance?
If so you might be fooked.
Actually no. I was trying to upgrade from 5.01 to 5.1. I'm really scared of having my Nexus 6 bricked. I can't do anything to unlock the bootloader. Maybe I could sideload a recovery? But do I need to be unlocked?

I already tried this solution, I think mine is a little different. At the end of the post it says to enter fastboot and restore with a factory image. I can't because I am not unlocked. In order to unlock my device I have to go to Developer Settings (it is the message when I use the OEM unlock command). but I can't access to Android. I am stuck in the bootloader but can run fastboot commands.

The solution that was posted should work, but you need to use RSD Lite in order to flash the factory image, not fastboot.
Read it over nice and slow again, because you are in panic mode right now, so take your time and you will get it back up and running with no problems.

Thanks! I've been reading a lot from this thread but I get something unusual as the other people are experiencing. When I try to flash partition gpt.bin I get (bootloader) Unlock before flashin.
It is kind of contradictory as this fix supposedly fixes flashing without unlocking. I don't know if it is a problem of drivers. My PC sees my N6 as Google Nexus Bootlader Interface. In the thread, the PC sees the device as "Bulk" or "Qualcomm ....... etc etc".
My panic mode isn't turning off. I may be missing something.

I agree because op is somehow confused.....fastboot has nothing to do with develope settings USB enabled
Yes it does. He flashed the factory images, then relocked (which defaults to disabled oem unlocking). But something failed (guessing possibly userdata failed). I would recommend fastboot formats userdata to perform a factory reset from the boot loader to see if you can get android to boot.

Urgent advice needed on Razr i XT890

hi, my phone Razr i XT890 is showing the Red Moto Logo, I tried to factory reset by going into fastboot also but nothing happened, I can find many thread here about the same problem but nothing conclusive could be found in those threads, hence I sent my phone for repairs, the technician hooked it up to a computer and said that most likely it is a software issue and the phone would be ok, after waiting for an hour I was told that the emmc has died and it cannot be replaced and the only solution would be to change the motherboard, since the mother board is not avaible in the market I looked it up on aliexpress and it costs around 70$ where as a new/refurbished phones are listed for 75$, need you guys advice on whether it can be repaired or not and if yes then how. I am a regular user and not an expert like you guys so if you suggest any thing plz do it in detail. FYI its a factory unlocked phone which had jelly bean OS and I never rooted it or did any hanky panky to it. Thanks
What u could try to test if the mechanic is right (I suppose he is), is to flash stock firmware by hand and see what the device gives for error.
If the error is an i/o error the emmc is corrupted and we can't help that. It will need a replacement of the motherboard.
To test it, extract all images from the stock firmware. Then flash them while your Phone is in fastboot modes and connected to your pc, like this:
Use a compatible fastboot executable like mfastboot.
- fastboot flash boot boot_signed
- fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed
- fastboot flash system system_signed
- fastboot erase cache
- fastboot erase userdata
Every one of them should return an "OK". If there is an error in one of them that partition is most likely damaged and if u can't boot in recovery there is most likely no turning back.

If it all says OK, u should have a working device. No doubt about that. But if one of them doesn't we found the issue. Most likely i/o. Can u still boot to recovery? Or is that even impossible, because u said u tried a factory reset?

Which country and carrier is it from? That way I can post the link to the correct firmware file for your phone.

It is an unlocked phone, not linked to any carrier I am not 100% sure but most likely England/Great Britain, I remember the Reading GB as in short for Great Britain in the firmware name once !

thanks a ton!!!
hi, guys sorry for posting so late, was super busy, any how haven't got a mechanic to flash the phone, guess I will have to do it myself, request you to answer my queries
.1) a mechanic to whom I went convinced me to believe that the problem was due to a faulty battery and he could fix it in 5 mins flat, He opened the phone did some tinkering with it, I am not sure what but the phone was in same condition ie Red logo on booting. Was very disappointed came back home and I tried to restore it through fast boot and I noticed that the Battery Current was coming as 4.1 V earlier it was 3.7 !!! I am sure that the mechanic messed it up. Now my question is will it harm the phone, battery or any other part?? Should I just leave it the way it is ie 4.1V and not try to rectify it to bring it to 3.7V.
.2) I am not able to get a mechanic who can flash the phone as suggested in previous posts, pl tell how I can do it myself, I am a newbie at this and have zero knowledge of the process, pl tell what all software are needed! And hardware if any. All I have got currently is the firmware posted in previous posts.
Thanks

SOFT BRICK using tool Xiaomi Mi A2

Hi guys, i need some help pleeease!
I was with the November security patch on my cell phone, I unlock the bootloader and went to use the friend tool (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/mi-a2-toolkit-unlock-bootloader-root-t3834585) to activate the camera2api.
But it gave problem and the cell phone did not turn on, it was locked in the screen of android one.
So I downloaded the patched_boot.img from the version I was in and put it via fastboot. did not work.
Now, my phone is in this situation: I tried to use MiFlash (three versison: 2018528, 2017720 and 20151028) and they fail in the middle of the process, accusing "FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))".
And: when I try to connect the cell phone normally, it shows the unlocked bootloader warning and goes straight to the fastboot, even without my request. This is strange. Perhaps because the system is damaged by the miflash unfinished
Obs: bootloader are unlocked and i can access twrp
If anyone can help me I will be very grateful and happy
What exactly did the "tool" do? I mean if you don't know that, pretty difficult to diagnose what's wrong...

Hi.
The tool (her topic link is up there) promised to activate camera2api without root my device (allowing OTAs in the future).
I believe she did a "temporary root" with a "temporary" boot.img just to activate the camera2api, and when it rebooted, it would return to normal boot.img without root. I do not know if I could explain it well.
The current issue is that it seems that the system is currently "destroyed or corrupted". Can not I reinstall the entire system through TWRP? Or something like this
Like I said, you don't know what it actually did. What it promised is one thing, what it did... another
That's the problem with 'tools'.
Have you tried doing a factory reset? Hold Vol up and power until it gets to Recovery (hopefully), if you do a quick press of vol up, that gets past the 'no command'. Then use vol up and down for selection and press power when on 'factory reset'.
It might work

You are right, friend.. this is the problems with tools! I never use tools with my A1 and past phones.. just this time :crying:
I tried the factory reset now. And it did not work, unfortunately. On the first attempt (I was in fastboot mode) he showed a white circle with the writing "ERASING" and then went back to the screen of Android One, and then I tried again Vol Up + Power and he appeared "No command" , and after I rebooted and tried again, nothing appears, it just restarts to the static screen of "Android One"
Another ideas?

The only other thing I can think of would be to change the current slot. If that works you would be booted into the prior version of the OS vs the latest update you did.
In fastboot, do fastboot getvar current-slot
Depending on what that slot is, change it to the other one (can only be a or b)
thus fastboot set_active a (or b, whichever is not the current one)
then fastboot reboot - and hope it boots.

That's probably because you have an old version of fastboot installed. Upgrade to the newest version, which should recognize dual slots.
dual slots are quite new.

Fastboot updated now! I changed the slot from B to A.
But doesn't work, unfortunately. After reboot, the phone can't boot and appears the screen asking between Try Boot Again or Factory Reset. I tried Factory Reset, but don't work =( return to the same screen.
What seems very strange to me, is the Miflash doesn't work. With my Mi A1 miflash ever save me

I've never used miflash, so no help there.
I'd try flashing the correct boot.img (for your software version). You can find the various boot images in the following link (don't forget to thank user ckpv5 for uploading these).
https://sourceforge.net/projects/others/files/Xiaomi_MiA2/
you would do fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
I'd suggest using b slot, as that was originally active. After flashing, set it back to active, try to reboot... then cross your fingers

Doesn't work man.. I went to twrp and checking there in the "WIPES session", I saw that the SYSTEM partition is 0kb used and 0kb free. Appears to be entirely empty
Do not have a way to install the whole system via twrp?

No, I don't. But I can tell you, twrp is a recovery app. It shouldn't be in the boot slot. And, with dual slot configurations, there is no recovery partition. The other slot is now used to do a recovery.
In other words, the way we *used* to use twrp doesn't work on dual slot phones. I think that's a big part of the confusion people are having. While the boot images do have a small recovery part to them, it's not a separate partition.
If you're flashing boot.img, and setting that slot active, I've no idea how you're getting into twrp.
Since now your fastboot is working why don't you use miflash to flash official stock ROM
1. You need unlocked bootloader which you already have.
2. Run these command to unlock critical partition
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
3 . Download the official fastboot V9.6.14.0 ROM from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/ota-v9-6-5-0-odimife-t3823445
Or here
http://en.miui.com/getrom.php?r=353&m=yes&app=false
4. Install with miflash (you already know the how-to)
5. Once up & running, do OTA to latest
Later .. redo what you want to do like enable camera api2 with proper guide.
E.g: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/how-to-enable-cam2api-simply-ota-t3858861

Hello.
I've tried using Miflash several times (3 different versions), but it never ends, it end up with an error every time that he will copy the file system.img to the mobile phone (I analyzed the log).
The miflash divides the file system.img into 5 or 6 smaller parts to be able to transfer to the mobile phone, and in some of these parts gives error, everytime :crying:

I can access twrp when I flash ''fastboot boot twrp.img" in powershell, so until the next reboot I have access to twrp

When I read your post here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78085858&postcount=188
"flashing is not allowed for critical partitions" usually due to critical partitions not unlocked. So .. if you already run "fastboot flashing unlock_critical" and you still have error using miflash .. nothing much I can offer to help. Hopefully you'll be able to fix it.

Hmm thanks for the answer!
Even when the operation fails after transfer a couple of archives before the system.img??? (on the Miflash)
If my phone was locked, Miflash could transfer these couple of archives before the operation fails?? Or if bootloader is locked, zero files can be passed by Miflash, and the error is apresented at the beginning of the operation?
Have you successfully unlocked critical partitions?
If yes, try to run flash_all.bat from the official stock image you downloaded. No need to use MiFlash.

well... When I just run flash_all.bat from the stock image folder, the .bat file will recognize that I am running it for the connected mobile?
how exactly should I run flash_all.bat? just double clicking it in stock image folder? or should I copy the .bat to /adb folder and open power shell prompt in adb folder and execute the .bat from there? sorry for my ignorance
Can you show me, please?

Mi A2 bootloader relock bootloop, need help ASAP!

Hay soo i wanted to relock bootloader after failing to install custom recovery (both) i turned off oem unlocking in developer options and did fastboot oem lock. Now the phone is looping in "your device can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader" and it reboots and says the same again.
When i try to unlock the bootloader with fastboot oem unlock i get "FAILED (remote: Flashing Unlock is not allowed)
I really dont know what to do and i need a phone for comunication. Please help!
You should only lock the bootloader after installing the stock ROM, otherwise your device will be bricked and the only way you'll get it back working is by flashing the EDL test points near the phone's battery and reflashing the stock ROM back in EDL mode.
Try downloading this tool then try to unlock oem, flashing and flashing critical.

I really messed up here. The problem is i toggled allow oem unlocking off and to top it all off i did oem lock. Now its bootlooped (check the video). Does xiaomi fix this by warrenty? I really dont want to open the device up because i am afraid i will do more demage and void the warrenty and the device wont ever be fixed.

I have seen another guy who did this. How is this possible that you turn off the unlock bootloader option when you've already unlocked it? The option gets greyed out and becomes non-functional.
Anyways I guess the best option is to give your phone to Xiaomi for the fix.

It wasn't grayed out for me. I'm thinking of test pointing the device because i dont really want to wait few months until i get my phone back from service. (There is no xiaomi service in my Country)
But i'm afraid if i open the device i will void my warrenty for future.

I don't think you will since you don't need to disassemble the device, all you need to do is remove the aluminum back cover carefully with damaging it and you'll find the test points right besides the battery
