what do i do i live in brooklyn and need to fix my phone asap.
please someone help.
thank you please someone help...

thanks a lot

just curious, what was your previous radio and SPL version before upgrade?

radio i can't remember but lower then the required for the cursersence rom
HOW CAN I REBOOT SYSTEM ERASE ALL FILES ON SYSTEM AND LOAD NEW HBOOT, RADIO ETC LIKE STOCK

Let's do this one step at a time.
Can you go into fastboot or recover screen at all?
If you can, downgrade back to something usable again (search for downgrading radio) and try again.
If you can not get back into fastboot or recovery, then you have a major issue.
Good luck

This is definitely the issue.
The stock Sapphire 32A (H) recovery image reboots when it starts up.
Download the hero recovery from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561124
Then boot into fastboot mode and from your PC, type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.2.img
Then boot into recovery mode by holding Home and pressing Power.
(NOTE: to select items in the recovery menu with the Hero recovery, you need to use the Green Send key instead of the trackball key)
You might have issues reverting back to 32A 3.22 radio, but that's another topic.
Send me a PM if you're still having issues. You can give me money if you want, but I'm happy helping for free.
As long as you followed my directions, you should have no problems at all.

i can get into fastboot and fastbootusb
I have a 32a HTC Magic Rogers. are you sure i need the hero img you told me to download and flash?

got it to work via your method so i can continue with your install
but when i get to the part where it says your hboot should read
HBOOT-1.76.2007
mine still reads hboot 1.33.2010 (sapp50000)
i did flash your hboot and it did restart in recovery and then i pulled the battery and restarted into fastboot and saw this
what now

Try the instructions outlined here.
You're close, you just need to flash the hboot and recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239

i finally got the hboot to load correctly.
now all i need is to flash
system.img
then
cursorsenceupdate.zip
RIGHT OR WRONG
and how much i owe you man... u are a life saver if you get this to work.
thanks a bunch

First of all, you owe me nothing. I'm not going to charge you for my help, but if you want to donate that's totally up to you.
As of right now you should have:
SPL: HBOOT-1.76.2007
Radio: 6.35.07.29
Confirm this information in FASTBOOT mode. (Power on by holding Back and pressing Power)
If you have not flashed the Hero Recovery, do that now.
Download it from here:
http://www.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.2.img
Flash it to your phone using fastboot mode
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.2.img
Press Menu to power off your phone, then boot into Recovery by holding Home and pressing Power.
In the recovery you should see this at the bottom:
Code:
Build: RA-hero-v1.5.2
Note that when using the Hero Recovery on Magic 32A, the green Send/Talk key selects items, not the trackball button.
Download CursorSense32A from the thread in this forum, save it to SD.
Flash through recovery mode as normal. Make sure to wipe using the recovery menu options first.

Nexus 5 Bootloop + No Power Button + Locked Bootloader + NO ADB -- Recover Data

Hey guys, so I have this dilemma on my hands. One of my friends has a Nexus 5 that has a power button issue. It seemed like a stuck power button, because even cleaning it did not solve the issue. So I removed the power button, and it finally turned on. However, it's now stuck in a Google logo bootloop.
The Objective:
To recover all data on the device. This is a must.
The Obstacles:
- No physical power button, but I can place a pair of tweezers on the terminals on the board to simulate a power button press.
- Bootloader is locked (I can unlock it, but that erases all data on the phone).
- Cannot enter proper stock recovery (I get a "no command" error when I do; I've tried all button combinations afterwards, including the ones from HERE, but to no avail).
- USB debugging was not enabled on the phone when booting normally, so even though the phone is recognized by my PC, I cannot do anything using ADB.
- Fastboot mode is the only successful mode I can reach on the phone.
The Final Question:
Does anyone know how I can successfully recover all the data on the phone using ADB or any other method, having the above obstacles?
Thanks in advance.

If you can reach fastboot without any problem, you can try to boot a custom recovery image using the following command : fastboot boot recovery yourcustomrecovery.img
(if you dont have a custom recovery, you need to flash one with : fastboot flash recovery yourcustomrecovery.img)
It will boot in recovery mode and, I hope, allow you to have an adb access and recover your data.
edit : since your bootloader is locked, i guess this won't work.

I bit of a trick. Try 'fastboot flash boot recovery.img' but instead of kernel flash twrp. After flash do a 'fastboot reboot'. It will boot recovery. Via twrp the pc will recognize phone as a media storage. You will not erase any data

Thanks for the response, but the bootloader has to be unlocked for that to work, and while I can do that, it will wipe the data I need.

Need help! Super soft Bricked stock phone. Tried many methods!

Hi all. So my stock opo somehow got bricked overnight while charging. It's completely stock and I have no idea why.
Status of my problem:
-Stuck on Android boot screen.
-Able to access fastboot.
-Can't access recovery mode
-No TRWP
-it's still locked
-Tried unlocking with fastboot oem unlock cmd / toolbox but it just reboots back to android stuck screen after its done but its still locked after checking with fastboot oem device-info cmd.
*USB debugging not enabled (cant enable it cuz i cant go in my phone duh)
-Cm11 33r I think...
-Installed android adb on device manager
But couldn't detect it on the list ("adb devices" cmd)
-Able to detect serial using fastboot device cmd tho.
-Tried universal adp, adb bootloader driver, Samsung adb driver, composite driver and it still won't detect it on list.
-Tried using another usb port.
-computer doesn't detect phone unless I go on fastboot or hold power+up volume for 10 sec (this shows QHUSB_BULK)
-Tried using msm9874downloadtool.exe with cm 11, doesn't do anything even tho it's completed and it's green.
-Tried using msm9874downloadtool.exe with color os but it doesnt work as well, in fact, it made my screen have multiple grey lines vertically across my screen and no fastboot display or android display.
-Tried just flashing Cm11 33r images but it won't work cuz I'm locked.
-Tried unlocking but goes back to my other problem of device not being on the list and not having usb debugging enabled.
Tldr;
Phone stuck on Android boot screen
USB debugging not enabled
Phone is not unlocked so I can't flash anything
Thanks for your time and effort. I really need help.

I still need help guys plzzz. Thankss

Have you tried getting into download mode? I think you power it off. Connect to USB and hold vol down? Or vol down + power. Something like that. Once in DL mode, flash it. There's a tutorial somewhere.

download mode? you mean fast boot? power + down doesnt load anything. Power + up goes into fastboot mode.
And i cant flash anything because you have to unlock the phone first. But mine is not unlocked. And i cant unlock it with fastboot oem unlock cmd because all it does it reboots my phone. Yes i checked if im unlocked after that with fastboot oem device-info.

First try to go to recovery by pressing volume down+ power button at the same time and then clear data and factory reset. This will wipe out ur data on phone but u can revive ur device by flashing stock rom using flashing tolls available... Check youtube videos for flashing tools.
Once you clear the data and factory reset from recovery mlde then ur device will be at the state where there is no OS in it n just a stock kernel. Give it a try and let me know

I can't get into recovery. Power + down only stays at android boot screen.

Have the exact same issue. Did you find a fix???

Even if your bootloader is not unlocked you can flash stock rom. Use oneplus one flashtool and flash cm11s. There are plenty of videos available on net for these problem, just go through them or try the hard bricked video to solve your problem. I hope it helps you. I lost my one device because of a silly mistake so i know the pain.

I've tried flashing stock rom. Cm11 33r. But it keeps telling me I'm locked.

put it on fastboot mode, download the stock rom from this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
Choose carefully between 16gb or 64
unzip the file and click on the flashall.bat or something like that , it's a script and it will flash everything
and you should be good
you will loose all your data, i don't know if you dont flash userdata and you remove it from the file and remove it's line from the script, maybe you wont loose your data, but try it
if you want i can help you through teamviewer

STEPS I did before brick:

2. flashed TWRP
3. after that my phone was reset however most of the apps was missing, I was trying to do factory reset once again but it failed with the message "Data partition was heavily damaged"
4. I re-locked EOM
5. brick as mentioned above
Please help, I have the phone only two weeks and I have no idea how to fix this without fastboot.
Thank you.

Sounds like you flashed the 3030 version of TWRP. Download the 3020 version and put it in your fastboot folder. Plug in the USB to PC
Hold power and volume up untill the phone reboots. While it's still off immediately change to power and volume down and hold till it goes into fastboot (bootloader)
Now fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
With the 3020 version.
Unplug the USB and hold power and volume up until it says the phone is booting.. let go and TWRP will load.
Go to Wipe / format data / type yes
Reboot to system and your all set

So I've tried that but the phone is still booting to recovery (flashing TWRP logo) no matter what.
Basically the phone is always on now because if hold the power button (or any other combination) for a few second it will just reboot back.
I have an access only to ADB, but I am not able to boot to bootloader at all, it seems the bootloader is damaged somehow.
Also that warning about unlocked OEM doesn't have that text saying "hold volume up to boot to recovery" etc. like before brick.

Hi there,
Try using the Huawei Multi Tool with the Unbrick option : https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/tool-huawei-multi-tool-team-mt-t3523923
Speaking from experience, this little fellow helped me recover my phone when I bricked it ON DAY ONE after failed root attempt... (Derp)
Let me know if it helped you
(Leave a thanks if it did )
EDIT : This tool is also useful if you want to get lazy whilst rooting. I use it constantly when flashing diffrent bits and pieces

Clearly follow My steps To unbrick and get normal device ::
Step 1 ::
Download the full firmware of your device.
Step 2 :
make sure that your bootloader is in unlocking state
Follow the video blindly ::: https://youtu.be/OMKDnBqbi3U?list=PL...eT9J26lkefvVkK
don't panic of mobile.
Step 3 :: done ..enjoy u did it
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you bricked on nougat then follow the below steps
step one :::
download the downgrade package to mm .
then extract the zip and open the update.app using HuaweiUpdateextrator in that select recovery and extract
1.now, boot your device into fastboot and flash the recovery (Optional)(try this if it said incompatible version on recovery)
2. on your sd card and make a folder "dload" . and copy the update.app which we have extracted earlier
3.the switch off the device and press all three buttons you will be reboot into recovery and done . you device will be okey

Booting to the bootloader is just a timing issue
Phone must be hooked to PC with USB
And volume up and power till it goes black
Then immediately volume down and power and Hold untill the bootloader loads
Keep trying until you get it

I appreciate your help but I've tried it multiple times always with the same result.
I also can use "adb reboot bootloader", but it will reboot again to stuck recovery.

I've tried that, but I am still stuck as that tool is using fastboot as every other tool to flash .img files.
Thank you for the tip though.

Plug phone into computer with USB, then hold down power + volume down until it eventually boots into bootloader. I had the same scenario as you and that's how I got into the bootloader. You can flash either a good TWRP or the stock recovery, either one will work.

[HELP] Can't get FRD-L04 into Fastboot or Recovery/eRecovery

I was attempting to restore my Boot.img and recovery.img (stock version B385) so I could update to the latest B388 package. This did not seem to work out well. I'm not sure if I fat fingered the wrong recovery file or what, but, I can't get to recovery. More importantly, I can't get to fastboot !
I have tried adb commands to reboot into fastboot and i've tried the volume - and plugging in USB cable while connected to PC.
Both of the above steps result in phone booting like normal. Phone seems 100% usable, I just can't do anything with it regarding recovery/bootloader.
Anyone have ideas? or am I stuck here?
thanks again

Well, I think I got lucky here. I have a feeling I did flash the wrong image into the recovery partition and it messed up fastboot too. but, regardless, I was able to turn phone off. Then I held power, vol -, vol+ for a while until I got the EMUI update screen. Then, after rebooting, I was able to issue adb reboot fastboot.
yay

With Huawei/Honor, we could easily mess up in seconds. wrong image flashing could lead to severe issue and sometime we may not be able to restore the same. Luckily you were able to get what you were looking for.
