[Q] Need help BIG time, no OS anymore. - General Questions and Answers

So before I installed Cyogenmod months ago I forgot to backup everything but I didn't think it mattered as everything was running smooth. I try to update to a nightlybuild that was in my settings and TWRP said it failed. Every single time I tried to reboot or factory reset I would constantly go back to the TWRP screen. I've tried drag and dropping multiple roms onto the phone, find it and 'swipe to confirm flash' but it ALWAYS says fail no matter what. And when I try to go to reboot it says 'WARNING: No OS found.' I've been trying all day and I literally need this phone to work but nothing I do is helping. Please help? Or ask any questions you guys need to know.:crying::crying::crying:

How bout the specs on that phone?
Model, link me to the phone here on xda, link me to the support page of your manufacturers website, etc.
Sounds like a partitioning issue.

For Samsung phone:
Go download mode and flash a ROM through ODIN.
For non-Samsung devices:
Flash a ROM from SD-Card.
Smack that Thanks button if I helped!

First, flash to stock based on carrier.
Taken straight from an xda forum post for the sprint model Here is a page that has the stock ruu's use the one at the bottom of the list.
http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=Jewel
Second, fastboot flash the latest twrp img for your evo. (Or however you got it on there in the first place.)
Last, get back to cm or whatever rom you want using the way that you originally got there.

I don't understand that, he provides fastboot commands and two downloads which should provide s-off.
Boot into bootloader with key combo and then use fastboot on your pc with the commands he provided.

Thank you for these suggestions.
However, they all consist in flashing a stock ROM and bootloader onto the device, overwriting the current setup.
Do I really need to to this, given that the current bootloader is stock (never flashed it, not needed with the method I used) and the ROM is 100% stock also (came from OTA). I am really curious about this thing and would like to understand what went wrong, instead of just overwriting everything and starting over.
Anyways, the suggested method should be fine in case i need to return the tablet for warranty purposes. That was my primary concern. Thanks!

When you you root you replace stock files and add some new files that are detected by the installation process of the OTA updates. This sets a flag to block further updates from Samsung. You can still update by restoring to stock then getting the updates then rooting again, but OTAs will not be automatically delivered to your device while its rooted.

[Q] Soft Bricked HTC One X att with download mode only

Hello everyone I'm new to modding htc. I bought a htc one x that can only enter download mode. Can someone help me to fix it.
P.S Yes the bootloader is unlocked
How do you know the bootloader is unlocked if the device is bricked? What do you mean by download mode? You're gonna need to provide more information than that.

Its soft bricked, download mode is entered when you press volume down and the power button. It doesn't have a recovery.
There's no such thing as a soft brick, a phone is either bricked or it isn't, so if your phone powers on at all it isn't bricked. You've got your terminology mixed up a bit, the screen you enter with the volume down + power button combo is called the bootloader screen. What details are listen in that screen? Is there a custom recovery installed, and if so, what version?

I'm aware that people use the term soft brick, I'm saying that the use of that term is incorrect. A brick is a brick, it isn't subject to gradation, if a phone is bricked it will not power on at all. Your situation isn't close to being bricked, you just don't have an OS installed. You probably just need to install a recovery and then a ROM.

Just because folks use the term, doesn't mean its correct.
For this device, if the screen comes on, it can be recovered.
A brick is a phone that can't be recovered without opening it (replacing motherboard, JTAG, etc.).
Folks like to say "soft brick", but all they really mean is "I did something wrong to my phone, and now I don't know how to make it boot up normally".

Now that you said it, I am stuck with CM 12.1 and want to go back to stock. I think I tried everything out there on this website to get it back but I cannot flash stock ROM successfully. Any ideas on how I get to my stock AT&T 2.3.5 ROM? I have TWRP 2.8.6.1 recovery up and running smoothly and can connect using fastboot/adb (although intermittently because asus hardware of my pc intermittently acts up and refuses to detect my inspire). Many thanks!
First off you have to lock your boot loader then you can run the latest ruu

You won't lose s off when you run this..to have phone be seen by PC (with the 5.0 android version you have) you must use SDK. Make sure your SDK is updated to 5.0+ versions. After that,to access bootloader,you must open platform tools folder in SDK and hold shift,right click mouse and choose open cmd here...cmd window "fastboot devices" if PC sees it,run ruu
---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:14 PM ----------
People tend to misunderstand that you can use SDK to access your phone. Especially if the computer does not see the devices drivers

Once your device is back to stock, you can always unlock the bootloader again with HTC dev website
aaarrggh.. stupid me. I should've thought about locking the device. This is what happens with inexperience and jumping bandwagon in the middle. anyways. I rolled back now thankfully. Many thanks!! I have s-on so i dont think that matters. I don't think i will go through htcdev for unlocking it again because the whole point behind upgrading to 5.1.1 CWM was to use hangouts and dialer function. that is not working, so i guess i will just patiently wait for google to support GB (UNLESS YOU HAVE A BETTER SUGGESTION?????)

Hi, i have a galaxy j1 mini sm-j105B . I tried to flash this custom recovery i found on the internet, intended for the sm-j105H , and it worked fine to use it to flash SUperSU on it. But the TWRP i believe its not working 100%. The partition layout is different from H to B model. I dont know how it will work on your F model, but as i said, it worked on mine to use it to push SUperSU inside, root works fine. Want to try ? i can provide the links, but no guarantee it will work for your F as it worked for my B. Cheers

It's not a bad thing since I have the original stock recovery. I just flash it again and try another custom recovery with the hope that one will eventually work

Just to clarify, the twrp i will provide does show that message before it boots. But that does not make my device bootloop like i read somewhere, nor it stops it from installing supersu correctly. It seems to work just fine. Anyway, if you dont want to see that message simply flash the stock recovery.img (easy downloadable) via Odin compressed as .tar . It replaces the recovery without changing the root status. While in download mode, your phone status will still be "custom", but no more seandroid messages will be displayed and the root works just fine.
I have seen and fixed that "recovery not seandroid enforcing" and it doesn't make me panic anymore. As for the custom part, my phone has been like that since I used a custom bootloader to achieve root via ChimeraTool then SuperSU failed to update binaries and I am stuck using 360root:crying:

Ok here we go, give this a shot:
------------------------------------------
Developer options -> Enable OEM Unlock + USB Debug.
Flash with Odin.
In case it does not work, let me know.
Mine have the "recovery not seandroid..." but it works just fine. Also in case it does boot ok into twrp, press the touch button right above the home button and check if there is any stuff written there in RED. report to me please in case it does. Press the same mid touch button to go back to the main menu.

1 out of 10 people had an issue where Odin would "PASS" the twrp flash, but the stock recovery would remain. We managed to fix this but then you would need extra files.

I have seen and fixed that "recovery not seandroid enforcing" and it doesn't make me panic anymore. As for the custom part, my phone has been like that since I used a custom bootloader to achieve root via ChimeraTool then SuperSU failed to update binaries and I am stuck using 360root:crying:

Ok here we go, give this a shot:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/z9dulj98wxky9s2/SM-J105F_TWRP_2.8.5.0_T1.tar?dl=0
Developer options -> Enable OEM Unlock + USB Debug.
Flash with Odin.
In case it does not work, let me know.
Mine have the "recovery not seandroid..." but it works just fine. Also in case it does boot ok into twrp, press the touch button right above the home button and check if there is any stuff written there in RED. report to me please in case it does. Press the same mid touch button to go back to the main menu.
You can a video i uploaded here for my j105B, as reference:

If this does not work for the Y version, it should be close anyway. Give me some time and i will check if it should be compatible for you, or if needs changes

Thanks so much, got rid of that Chinese root and SuperSU updated binaries.
I did get that "RECOVERY NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" which I got past by tapping on the "powered by android" logo, from there it was smooth sailing...... thanks so much dude

Thanks for the feedback dude, if you have any trouble with the TWRP please share with us since im not professional! Another thing, when inside TWRP if you hitthe touch button that is above the home button in the middle, it shows a "status" page. If there are RED warnings displayed there, please let me know! Cheers

$20 to fix your phone. Sounds pretty cheap.
See how much it costs from a repair shop.

Connect phone to your PC in download mode and do "firmware rescue" via Smart Switch.
Nevermind! I fixed it!!!!!!

I have this same phone......rooted. Can use your help. I want flash any working verizon rom. But more importantly I want to know how to recover from a brick..............
Noticed you were able to recovery from a brick......with Odin? Curious how. I tried to flash a stock Verizon rom, while rooted with ODIN, and pit file.......but it fails.
I am nervous of trying to flash TWRP and custom rom, if I don't know of a full proof recovery method.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

Last question, does that stock contain the modem (modem.bin)? My phone is unbricked but the EFS is messed up because I flashed a marshmallow update via TWRP and did not backup my EFS. I eventally had to restore my original 5.0.2 stock rom.

I'm done with XDA. Most useless site I've ever dealt with... I have a $400.00 dollar phone that is useless based on the information on this site. They say this file works for your model but....BRICK. No one test what they post as proven...Don't trust what you read on this forum. Go elsewhere...although there is not much else to go to...

Oh, I know this will get deleted, but hopefully someone will see this before it does. Nothing of value for the U.S.
