Okay now download your stock rom from here
download flash tools from here
drivers from here.. install drivers accordingly to your os (32 bit or 64)
extract all packages
Flash your stock rom
*open sp flash tool click on scatter loading.
*browse and select file i.e MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc under extracted rom folder.
*click on firmware upgrade
and remember while or before flashing pull your batteries out and insert again.
best of luck /////:good::good::good::good:

NEVER PULL OUT THE BATTERY WHILE FLASHING ANYTHING! That is the equivalent of smacking your phone with a sledgehammer. Cutting the power off while flashing a kernel/firmware will brick your phone for good.

Next time flash through recovery, flashing through rom manager can cause problems...

Just an advise, try to avoid using KDZ. Perhaps, KDZ already bricked by set thrice even If I followed everything carefully. Some errors cannot be resisted.
On the other note, using ROM manager to flash recovery is recommended only when you have a fast WI-FI or 3G connection. Your error was caused due to the flashing of corrupted recovery.

For some reason CWM tends to give a lot of soft brick problems .. its better to flash amon-ra 3.xx via the FlashGUI app

Fixed the problem of LG flashing logo.
downloaded the v10E_00.kdz file from the forum...LGMDP doesnt work .....KDZ_FW_UPD_EN worked for me.....
In the emergency mode (press return button+vol down+power button) connect the usb with the pc......pc will automatically find the mobile connected after some 2min or less......now go to the device manager and disable the lg modem from the modem option......then open the KDZ folder install the .msi package and start KDZ_FW_UPD.exe inside the folder the KDZ window opens in that select the option 3GQCT for Type and for the PhoneMode select cs_emergency then select the .kdz file from the folder where u placed it in ur pc.......Click Launch Software update it will start installing the rom after some minutes it will be completed......Thats it....then i installed the same rom manager and this time i flashed it with lg optimus one old bb(old baseband)(5.0.2.7)option.....then i installed jelly bean after successfully installed there too i got a problem with the network is not connecting the i searched and found the new baseband P500-v20G-baseband then installed it using LGDMP......
After u successfully solved the problem of flashing LG logo the other problems are easy to solve.....:good::good::good: I'll try to put those download links installation details......if not useful misses please pardon me......

ok listen...can you flash stock.ftf rom to your tipo? just download flashtool (google it) and find stock.ftf from general section...one other way is to flash vergeance kernel with flashtool, enter cwm and flash a rom from android development (or cm10 from original android development) if you dont understand something tell me....
P.S. after you flashed stock rom or vergeance kernel turn on your phone and put charger to see if it charging

it seems that you have wrong header.sin or you didn't enter the flashmode properly. make sure you get notice 'the device is plugged with flashmode' or something like that when you plug in the usb to your pc. to fix the header.sin issue you'll need the correct one. you can find it on the same thread where you got your tft.

I'm not sure about that. he didn't give any specific info about how messed up his system is. if he install any stock ICS based rom (without any custom kernel) his problem mostly could be fixed by reflashing the rom and wipe the data. flashing a kernel won't fix this issue. aside from that scenario, there are several more scenario i.e:
1 he could have install a JB based rom then he install a ICS rom, completely dead. need to flash complete tft or reflash JB rom and wipe data.
2 ICS rom with custom ICS kernel. can be fixed by flash a stock kernel
3 etc etc...there are a lot of scenario
my main point is that flashing a kernel doesn't always fix anything. in most cases, I only suggest that step for more advanced user. without enough data about the system condition flashing a complete tft will be a general and always working method.
anyway, before we do any 'flash' thing, IMO wipe data might be a good choice. most new member forget about that important step and ended up with a bricked device.
ok then...i said to flash kernel and to choose a custom rom (gimlo, paradox etc) but if ico98 download again ftf file will he have this problem again? (header.sin)
P.S. sometimes i forgot to wipe system and data when i am to cm10 and i want to go back to ics and the only problem i have is some apps to force close....no brick only fc
P.S.2 i installed kernels from xperia mini pro and insecure kernel E dual and my phone didnt brick, just not boot...maybe my phone has immunity at brick ahahahahahahaha
Sent from my Xperia Tipo using xda app-developers app
well...it doesn't means that your system is immune. you're just lucky enough to never experienced a hardbrick.
Thank Youuuuu !!!!!

My galaxy fit rebooting continuously

I had rooted galaxy fit with 2.3.6. Today i did factory reset on my phone including wiping memory card(as i had increased my internal memory using external sd). Since wiping and reset my phone is continuoudly rebooting. I also tried restore option but nothing happened. I do not know much about it. Please help.

Did u use cwm recovery to format the samsung stock rom??:what: If yes... then it's O.K. No need to worry. Just flash any custom rom (cyanogenmod 7 recommended for flashing the very 1st time over samsung stock rom).
Note: Do format /system b4 flashing.:thumbup:
I do not have much idea about this. Would u please explain the procedure.
Sent from my Micromax A116 using xda app-developers app
Enter recovery mode by pressing & holding Home+Power buttons together when the phone is switched off.
Since ur phone isn't turning on & u mentioed that restore option is not working...I guessed that u might have cwm recovery...coz restore option belongs to cwm recovery... CWM recovery is used for custom roms...while the Android OS installed on the phone at the time of purchase has it own different recovery (known as stock recovery). Stock recovery has much less options than cwm recovery.
BTW how did u format ur phone...?? from settings or via recovery??:sly:
I did factory reset from setting. After that it restarted and opened the boot menu from wher i selected the wipe option
Sent from my Micromax A116 using xda app-developers app
During formatting via settings, the phone automatically reboots after succesful format. & boots directly to home screen (not ny boot menu).
Now can i get my phonr back in initial stage by flashing any rom or i will have to go to service centre.

You can get your phone back to initial stage by flashing a stock rom from http://www.sammobile.com/. There you will find a stock rom for your phone.
& follow the steps correctly bro...!!
For 4 pkg f/w(e.g. froyo):-
OPS: BENI_v1.0.ops
BOOT: APBOOT....
PHONE: MODEM....
PDA: CODE....
CSC: CSC....
For one pkg f/w(e.g. gingerbread):-
OPS: BENI_v1.0.ops
One Package: gingerbread.home.tar.md5
Hope this helps...!!!

[Q] Micromax canvas 2 hard bricked

Hi,
I tried to upgrade my MMX A110 to Jelly bean using SP Flash tool but ended up in a bricked device(Most probably a hard brick :crying
Now my phone is not turning on or showing any sign of life...(Even the battery LED indicator is dead:crying
What i got is this: BROM ERROR : S_DA_INVALID_ADDRESS(3036)
I've attached some screenshots and logs i got during the process. Please help me if there is any way of giving life back to my phone...
You format your device using sp tool?
If you have formatted than okay, and if not than its good.
Use download option instead of firmware upgrade to flash your rom.

Have you flashed CWM recovery in your device before ? If you have then download any ROM for your device and flash it as per instructions given in the Rom's thread.. But if u havnt flashed CWM.. Then download Stock firmware of mmx A110.. And flash it through Sp flash tool.

Yes you can install rom even after full format with sp tools, but format using sp tools is never recommended.
Now the difference is, when you full format with sp tools, everything like bin region, secure information in ic like imei and memory partition are erased, so to gain proper partition you have to press download instead firmware update.
If you don't do it you can't boot up your device.
I don't know what you did with your device. But seems something like what I suggested will work.
