Phone Won't Boot - General Questions and Answers

hello, i have a huawei u8860 honor, I wanted to put a custom rom on my phone, i didn't really know what i was doing but i saw a tutorial that that said to put the phone into pink screen mode then replace the recovery.img with clockworkmod one. i made a backup of the default on just in case. the clockworkmod one wouldn't let the phone boot so i went back to put the original recovery.img file back onto the phone. but now my phone will not boot with the default stock recovery.img and boot.img. i cant get into recovery mode or anything other than "pink screen mode". all it does is flash the huawei logo for a few secconds then turns off. i have no idea what to do. did i do something wrong restoring the recovery.img backup? please could someone help me!
thanks in advance

HY,if you want to flash a custom rom you need a boot.img and the rom.CwM is a recovery tool that will help you flash roms .After you wiped the cache and the dalvik cache you can install the zip ROM and then reboot.IF you say that the phone will not boot into cwm recovery try push it on your phone again ,if you made the backup with it its the only way to restore your data.It happend to me once but i pushed cwm back into the phone and reboot into recovery by holding volume key and the power button and it worked.

And it also can be because you havent flashed the boot.img correctly.Never forget the the boot.img needs to be where the fastboot files are.YOU can do it by install the SDK from android and push it to platform-tools. GOOD LUCK

It sounds like you're going to have to re-flash stock or some other ROM. Use the toolkit (in another post in our forums) and flash TWRP recovery and then flash whatever ROM you want.
Also....do a backup in TWRP after everything is working. Most important thing you'll ever do as it will save you from having to do this kind of thing again.
I would flash a recovery Philz or TWRP boot to recovery format sdcard system data cache and preload .

If you can get into recovery mode - holding power+volume down , then pressing volume up to get into download mode , if so, flash a stock rom through odin & you will be good to go.

[Q] Device wont turn on after booting recovery

Hi, I wanted to root. Instead of flashing the custom recovery I only wanted to boot into it and then apply the supersu.zip.
But something went wrong and now I can't turn the device on.
Please help me. :crying: Here is the screenshot, what happened. (attachment)
EDIT: I couldn't turn on the device, but I could start the stock revovery via volume down+ power. And now?
EDIT2: After entering the stock recovery I could boot normally. Why did it behave so strange? This is the correct file openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-bacon.img?
I had the same issue, now I'm on flashed CWM recovery.
Try this img file, this one worked for me. It's from the "OnePlus Easy Toolkit". You can also try it through it... but if you want to do it manually you cann extract the archive and use the provided twrp img file
I took the CWM.img which is in this zip file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2779976
And it worked. I could do "fastboot boot [cwm recovery.img]" Thanks for the hint to try CWM instead of TWRP

Can't flash custom recovery on a XT925

Hi,
My wife just got a new phone and gave up her old XT925 so I thought I would try to put CM or SlimKat on it and let my daughter play around with it. But I'm having trouble putting a custom recovery on it. I've unlocked the bootloader. I've used fastboot to write the recovery image...but when I try to reboot directly into recovery so the binary update can complete, it pauses for a couple of minutes and then reboots the OS normally. If I try entering reovery after that, I end up with the dead android with a red exclamation point in him and "no command" written below.
The phone currently has 4.4.2 and System 181.46.3.XT925.RCI.en.CA. Am I out of luck with this device and stuck on 4.4.2?
Thanks!

Its because you need to rename the stock recovery to .bak at the end of the file name. The stock recovery is getting in the way of you rebooting to TWRP or what ever custom recovery you are trying to use.
If you cant figure out how to do that or don't know where in system the stock recovery is just hit me up and ill give you the path to the file. After you rename the file just go back into fastboot and reflash the custom recovery and you should be able to reboot into TWRP or what ever custom recovery you want.

Bricked my phone need help please!

Today I accidently wiped my internal and external sd card from twrp recovery mode. I was on Lolipop 5.1.
As I wanted to install Cyanogenmod Rom I tried to reflash CWM recovery. Ater doing that I was not able to enter the twrp recovery anymore. I had accecs to the unlocked bootloader and tried to reinstall the boot, recovery and system via fastboot but without any success. The phone did not boot and I couldnt enter recovery mode anymrore.
Now I accidently flashed via fastboot a wrong boot and recovery firmware (4.1) and since that I can not even enter fastboot. The pictre shows where I am stuck. On the bootloader page it says:
Error
Func NO: 10 (FUNC_BOOT_RECOVERY)
Error NO: 2
Can somebody help me to repair my device? Its brandnew.
What can I do without a recovery, without a system and without fastboot.

No because I had twrp recovery installed and tried to flash cwm over it. After that I had no recovery at all. But I made some progress now... I am able to flash the same newest twrp 2.8.7.0 recovery to the phone and I managed also to flash the 5.1 stock recovery. I flashed BOOT.img from 5.1 and SYSTEM.img from 5.1 and I got rid of the error in fastboot menu.
Stock recovery I can flash via installer_r24.4.1-windows from acbka.

And these two recoveries seems to be the only one that work on my phone....? Currently I have stock recovery installed and i put MT7-L09C900B324 on my sd card (dload/UPDATE.app) and did the three buttons rescue. It seemed to work but It stoped at 90% and still no luck. What am I doing wrong this time?
Hi Suite does not recognitze the phone. When I abort the istallation and reboot the phone starts with the Huawei Logo and goes black and starts to the Huawei logo and goes black and so on...
Here is a picture of where i am stuck at 90% right now, so close...:

SOLVED
After a 36 hour marathon my mate 7 is back and working. the trick was to flash the stock recovery for all Lollipop versions wich can be foudn here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mat...8-7-0-mate7-android-5-1-t3156779/post61958212 via linux. I somehow seem to have had trouble over wndows.
And after that do the three button rescue with the newest B 324 firmware which I have had installed before I destroyed my OS..
and my camera is now running normaly which was the initial reason i tried to install a other firmare.

When you say flash stock recovery for all LP versions, did you flash and then reboot each time? or flash over and when complete, flash over again still on fastboot?
Can you briefly describe in steps? Tnx! and Glad you were able to recover

I flashed via fastboot the stock recovery which you can download via the link above. the provider (user rowihel2012) claims, that this recovery works for all lolipop stock roms.
After that I made a reboot and pressed (power button and volume+) to check if its installed.
Than I downloaded the lollipop version I have had previously installed. In my case this was the B324 European version.
I put it on my sd card (dload/UPDATE.app) and launched the phone with the three button rescue method. The recovery recognized the rom on the sdcard and started to flash the OS.
After less than 5 min, my phone was restored.
I have made the experience, when using certain roms (B324, B308 etc..) with certain stock recoveries, I was not able to flash the OS and the recovery stoped always at 90%.
The recovery linked above seems to work great for the B324 version, I haven't tried any other stock roms with it.
I wonder if this will work for B327? Seems the actual last update for LP was B324, now I can't seem to get out of this firmware to go back to KK. When I flash transition B300, it's successful...but for some odd reason, when I flash 137, 143, 145 or 148...I auto go back to B327. This, after the fact I'm flashing those firmware's recoveries. Any ideas what I might do to get out of 327?
---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ----------
Also, what's this Vol+ and Power technique?, all I get is the three menu screen (reboot, factory reset and format cache).

You can try this recovery above which should work for all lollipop roms but I have no better idea as I have had basicly the same problem and could only flash the former rom i had installed whch was B324.
The Vol+ and Power i do to get into the recovery menu (the three menu screen) to check if the recovery was flashed successfully. I have had often the problem after flashing a recovery that it did not work. this is to check if the recovery works.
When i tried to flash a cwm recovery, i couldnt enter any recovery mode after that anymore. I panicked at this point but than i realised that not all recoveries did work for me. For example I could never flash a CWM recovery, not sure why. Maybe because I tried to flash a 4.4 recovery and I had a 5.1 BOOT.img installed?

I see, so then it seems like some recoveries did in fact work with fastboot on me, because the Vol+ and Power worked, but it either only put me in V100R001C900B300 OR MT7-L09C900B300. I've read that I can't just flash KK over LP, that I needed to flash the B300 which is why I flashed transition package first. Should I not have done this?
Once in transition mode though (I booted up and checked, then went back into recovery), if I flashed 4.4 (recovery), it oddly put me back to B327...strange even though the recovery flashed was B137 or B145.
Let me see this link above. I'm back again at 5.1.1 LP B327. I'll do instead fastboot and flash above the recovery and so on, and I'll post the results, if any. Oddly enough, if I flashed boot, recovery and system images of 4.4, I get an "Android" boot screen that hangs, no Huawei.
I really like LP because of some of the features not found in KK like the dual windows, camera tweaks, etc. But no root yet available. TWRP doesn't seem to work as well, fails in fastboot.

Okay...so I was able to flash down to B324, but not via the link provided. What I did was, flash B300 cust.img on (fastboot) then flash boot/recovery/cust/system.img (fastboot). Rebooted with VolumeUp + Power to check for recovery (success), performed a wipe and done! Back to B324.
Now I gotta figure how to go back down to B145, which is where I was at with Root and with no problems at all. If I flash B300 again and then B145...I get the "Android" logo (instead of Huawei) and then the HAM7 reboots and recovers itself back to B324.

I almost bricked my phone because of that stupid userdata.img inside the Twrp recovery
For 2 days I've been trying to install a rom with the twrp recovery, which always worked nice although a bit slow, but since the installed rom always had issues, this time I put not only the twrp recovery in flashboot, but also the userdata.img, which by the way there's no reference about it in any doc of the zip
As a result my phone didn't pass forward the coloured Leeco splash screen in chinese, (the one that cames before the twrp spashscreen).
I shut it down and put it on charge, but it didn't even seem to be charging! the red led was always on and the battery had no progress bar, just a 'sparkle' symbol. If that thing isn't even charging, how the hell would I enter fastboot?
Thankfully I got back the normal recovery and bootloader.
So, anyone reading, DO NOT flash userdata.img in fastboot!
