My Spice Mi-525 has a weird problem. It restarts in a loop after loading home screen properly. I have removed SIM card and tried factory reset and battery removal many times but problem is still the same. Going by some other threads it seems I may need to flash stock ROM again. Can someone please provide that? Is there any other custom ROM available for this phone? Any other suggestions please. Thanks.

I couldn't find any solution so took it to service center and they re-installed ROM. As the phone was in warranty it didn't cost anything but took 10 days to get it back. They refused to give me stock ROM on pen drive when I asked. No custom ROM is available so I am not trying anything fancy with this phone. Not even ROOT.

It has got a Mediatek chip so you can try this link http://blog.morrison.nl/how-to-restore-a-no-1-p7-mini-pad-rom/ . It also has another link about how to take backup of ROM. I haven't tried it so you are on your own.
just root your phone using frameroot
install cwm recovery
and backup your Rom for future problem

Please Help !!
Dear,
I think i might have bricked my Spice Mi-525. I installed a custom rom Lewa mode ultimate. After the installation finished, i rebooted my phone and now it just comes up with these two logos which say Lewa mod ultimate and then the screen starts to go blank slowly and turns kina grey blackish shade. the phone doesnot turn off using power button after that,i remove the battery to do so.
The phone is a spice pinacle fhd mi-525. I have read about the concept of stock rom , if possible could someone help me to just restore it to the default software again please.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I have a similar problem install CWM and make a backup, install CyanogenMod uns as not connected to the network restore the backup, now does not start and not let me get into Recovery, only stays on the screen for samsung mobile, please help.
There isn't cyanogen for the indulge, best I've found for this device is was a custom rom and kernel made by Konane posted on android forums all things root subsection for the indulge. Seems dev is dead for the device tho as it was posted last year and no new updates to it which are needed because it seems metro found a way to void some of the great improvements made.

stock rom
Hi,
a stock rom is the software that is on your phone when you bought and don't have a branding on it.
yeah basically, its the software that came with your phone straight out the box.
untouched/unmodded/etc
software that is on your phone when you bought and don't have a branding on it.
if i rooted my device and i backed up that ROM, does that count as Stock ROM too?
i understand that there are modified ROM's out there that can be installed (flashed), so rooting does not count as modifying the ROM...right?

no that is just a stock rom you have added busybox su binary and superuser app to it .
You can fully unroot that. and it ll be again like your old stock rom
its kinda in it name..little research goes a long way.
Before flashing custom rom some developer ask to flash stock rom given by them, does there is any difference in that rom & the one install in our smartphone but get update through ota to other firmware version than the given version....??

i think after updating phone using ota service some time changed kernel version and custom rom not supporting that kernel so they tell us to flash stock before install their rom.

Hello. If I rooted my phone (with Kingo Android Root) and then unrooted, but did not make a backup, is there any hope of restoring the phone? I did not flash a new rom. I had only copied my SD card files to my PC. I'm stuck at the set-up stage (I get force-close each time). Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks much

Hello !!
I have a LG Thrill P925G Rooted + CWM Im getting tired of CWM and want to remove it ? is there any possible way i can remove it without bricking my phone ? I Want It To Go Back To Stock Everything
Please If Someone Can Help Me With This Situation
- ROM MANAGER IS NOT GOOD
:crying:
I don't recommend going back to stock ROM manager - it will remove your root instantly as soon as you hit factory reset - that depends on what ROM manager version you use, of course. So, I don't recommend that - there's better alternatives of course. And CWM or TWRP is there for when you accidentally brick your phone so it's best to leave any of rooted ROM managers alone so you can reflash the backed-up copy of Android ROM and your preferences - you will thank yourself for that. I managed to learn my lesson the hard way with my previous Android smartphone. Now I use TWRP a lot just so I can test the firmware out.

Thanks Mario For The Reply
The reason why i want to go back to stock is because i just got an update from LG Mobile Support Tool and i think CWM is messing around with the update because my phone wont update and all my other friends as the same phone there's update and the not on any CWM Or ROOTED .. Thats the only reason why i want go back to stock ?? but i was wondering do you think i can still update my phone with CWM ?
:crying:
Just update to JB 4.2.2 and you'll be ahead of all of them
I was rebooting my MTech Fusion(specs given below) after editing build.prop file and pushing a new SystemUI.apk(changed some images) and the phone got stuck on boot logo. I tried using data and cache wipe functions of stock recovery(No CWM for my device) but it didn't help. Can anyone please help with this??

Android 4.2.1 JB stock; Rooted with busybox.

2GB SD card(little tight on the budget it's my third phone in a year)
At this point, best to reflash the ROM

I think the only thing left, that you haven't done already, is to reflash.
I was going to suggest NeedROM, but saw no listings for your brand. I assume you've already completed a web search for you model's ROM, and have 'come up dry'.
Go to the company's website and send an E-mail or call (with a cheap VoIP provider, of course) their phone number and ask for a link to the stock ROM download for your phone. This should include flashing instructions.
Seems all of m-Tech Mobile's Service Centers are in India, and their web site's Download section is limited to Specs, 'Buy Now' and spam-filled 'Reviews'. So your only hope is a personal contact with Customer Service to explain what you need.
I had the same kind of boot-loop problem with a phone made by M-Horse in China, having discovered too late no one has ported CWM (or built a custom ROM) for it. I was very lucky to find a ROM for the exact model on needROM, complete with reflashing utility recommendations. That's all it took to restore the phone to 'out of the box' condition.
I don't think I'll buy another phone until I first go to the 'net and see what kind of support is available for it.

(EDIT): I found a ROM for a phone with same specs on NeedROM, will try flashing it before going to customer support.
(EDIT 2): The ROM didn,t work, probably due to scatter file error. I went to MTech service senter and got the stock ROM back. Backing it up for future use in case i brick again. Thanks Belamigo for the suggestion

You can't just simply replace new Systemui... You have to Edit framework also... Suystemui must also be signed... Any wrong values in build.prop will lead to bootloop...
Flashing the stock rom is best solution to revert back.Also changing system will cause bootloops :angel:

Hello
I use a ROM with XT897 CM10.2.1 and SIM MOD CornholioGSM since July 2014, it was working fine.
I flashed the ROM-cm-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO23E 12.1-20150901-xt897 (RELEASE) one month ago and the ROM worked well. A week ago, the phone was much slower, I turn off reboot and since it constantly!
I made the following transactions with TWRP:
- Reset factory
- Flash ROM (cm 12.1-20150901-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO23E-xt897)
- Flash ROM (BlissPop-v4.0.1-xt897-OFFICIAL-20150917-1514)
- Flash recovery (cm 12.1-20150901-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO23E-xt897-recovery.img)
- Flash TWRP
- Flash ROM (cm 12.1-20151007-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO339-xt897)
Always the same, I have the boot logo and the logo of the ROM and the phone reboots.
The ROM (CM12.1) has started once and then restart the phone has rebooted repeatedly.
I tried with or without a SIM card.
I do not understand where does the problem, can you help me?
Well not having the phone in front of me, I don't really quite understand the issue myself - however, I would suggest using RSD Lite and one of the FXZ files to flash everything (including recovery) back to stock.
If you still have issues, there is a bigger problem (likely hardware failure).
Hello
sorry if my explanation was not clear.
I added a photo which shows the two steps in the operation of my phone.
Step 1: Start the phone .
Step 2 : boot ROM CM12
The Step 2 lasts 23 seconds then return to Step 1 and Step 2 and Step 1, Step 2 infinitely .
I hope this is understandable .
I read on the forum that used some RSD Lite but as I had not used for the ROM installation, I did not understand why use .
I'm a new user, i can't post picture, I send link by PM, thanks.
I thought my last post made it clear what purpose RSD Lite and the FXZ files are - they restore the phone to stock completely - ROM, recovery, everything will be reset to when it was stock from the factory (granted it may be a newer image than what shipped on the phone, but you get the point).
Again, as I stated previously, if you still have issues after flashing everything stock your issue is likely not software, but hardware.
I searched the forum about RSD Lite. Now I understand its usefulness.
I used RSD Lite to flash the ROM asanti_c_sprint-user-4.1.2-9.8.2Q-122_XT897_FFW-5-6-release-keys-cid9.xml.zip
My phone had with SPRINT .
The flash went well but unfortunately I still have the same problem :
Step 1: unlocked bootloader screen
Step 2: The red M MOTOROLA
Step 1, Step 2 , .....
Is there another test or I can consider it a hardware problem ?
Hardware problem can come out of the MODSIM ? I use a SIM card in the phone for 16 months.

The hardware issue is likely not related to the SIM modification. As to what exactly has failed, I'm not sure... perhaps the NAND or something else memory related.

I had a similar incident a few days ago. I have a hard time stopping myself from pushing the limits. Usually I stop when it's broken. I tried RSD Lite, SDB sideload/ flash, zip install from recovery, fastboot(mine's dead), all with no luck.
Any how, If you have CWM, temporarily change to TWRP. If you already have TWRP it's easier.
XDA has a TWRP recovery image in the forum. Put that in your sdcard (I had to paste it from my computer because my xt897 was soft bricked). Flash from TWRP.
Worked fom me. got my phone back after 1 week of flashing everything and then some.
Good luck.

Hello
thank you for this new information.
I tried it and it worked with the ROM [PQ_ICS-Stock] but only with that one!
I tried the ROM [PQ_JB-421] , several Cyanogen ROM but still the same looping boot problem.
I tried several version of TRWP without success .
I do not understand why my Photon Q only works with this ROM [PQ_ICS-Stock] .
Is still a motherboard problem ?
Hello everyone
I'm going crazy !
As I had not managed to solve my problem, I ordered a mainboard on ebay.
Today I realized the SIMMOD on this new board.
when I restarted phone the same startup problems with the ROM SPRINT !
I unlocked the bootloader .
I installed TWRP 2.7.1.2
I installed CM12.1-20151219 - NIGHTLY - XT897
Still the same problem starting loop.
Someone an idea ?

If you can't RSD Lite, something is up. Either you are not doing the process correctly, or there is something wrong with the device (still).
Perhaps you were always on ICS and never made the official jump to JB? You say you can RSD Lite to an ICS version, just not a JB version? So 4.0.x works but 4.1.x does not?
Again I'm talking stock. If stock doesn't work, I wouldn't even attempt CM. Start with the basics, then work your way towards the aftermarket.
I agree that if the stock rom does not work after the installation with RSD Lite is that it remains something (software) .
The first motherboard I used 12.1 CM for several months it is that the phone supports android 5.1
I agree that it must abort running a stock ROM before flashing a ROM CM. But the ICS ROM STOCK works!
It is possible that I did not do the process correctly .
What surprises me is that the second board had the same problem with the ROM SPRINT !
I will do other tests.

This is the part that makes me think you are perhaps missing some step in the process somewhere.
Can you RSD Lite to ICS? Not flash it with TWRP. If that is successful, try to RSD Lite to the latest JB again.
I modified the second motherboard ( mod sim card ) and I started the phone with the ROM SPRINT and I got the boot problem repeatedly.
the common point of two motherboards is that they both have a bad ESN .
I will do other tests.

Bad ESN shouldn't prevent booting... it would prevent you from activating the device on the Sprint network, but I would imagine you don't care about that...

I used RSD Lite 6.1.6 for flashing the ROM [ 2014-03-09 - TSv2 ] but the process has blocked after the flash.
Here is what I did :
1- run RSD Lite
2- Start the phone in FASTBOOT mode.
3- usb phone connection to PC
4- opening of the ROM [ 2014-03-09 - TSv2 ] and "uncompress and start flashing"
5- flash goes well
6- the phone reboots => Logo M red => telephone reboot => Logo M red => again ....
7- RSD Lite waits for the restart ... [ it waits again, LOL ]
8- I turned off the phone and I unplugged.
9- I turned on the phone who start properly, I arrived at the language selection screen .
The ROM is an android version 4.0.4 , I think you know this ROM .
Why the process with RSD Lite has blocked the phone to reboot ?
That's what I did wrong in the process?
I have read many forum post, I tried several methods but only in the ROM 4.0.4 STOCK work. Flashed with RSD lite or restoration of a backup with TWRP.
I have the bootloop problem using RSD Lite 6.2.4 for ROM 4.1.2 CSPIRE or ROM 4.1.2 SPRINT. No error message of RSD lite. No error message of phone.
I've modified the XML file but it changed nothing.
Same problem using TRWP with custom ROM or restoration of a backup ROM4.1.2 JB.
Same problem using OPEN RECOVERY 209 with custom ROM.
Where is the problem ?
I would use CM12 ROM.

Without having the device in my hands, it's hard to say for sure. The only difference I can see you are doing differently from me is using a newer version of RSD. I doubt that would be an issue, but may want to try other RSD versions.
In the end, I suppose if 4.0.4 works, use that...
Thank you for you help.
