Hi everyone !
Here I am in a really bad situation...
I bought a second hand phone with a rom issu and the guy who had it told me he ahd no time to waste trying to make it work again, I decided to buy it thinking that nothing could resist a factory reset via ADB.
But, and if I'm here today, it's because I'm in a such a situation, I need some help, and hope you guys can find a solution or at least some leads.
when I got it:
- model 16 GB D821
- The battery was not correctly attached in the phone (i did open it and put it back how it should be and seems to work)
- it is root, bootloader unlock, with Teamwin recovery version 2.6.3.2
- bootloader version HHZ11D
I can launch the teamwin recovery, it's asking for a password when it's starts, i don't know whay BUT I did a data format seeing that some people had some problem with it and did that to fix it
In Teamwin I got 0mb of storage and no OS installed, again it could be fixable via ADB
Now the best !
I can't flash anything on the phone. I can connect to it, it's well detected, I can control it (via ADB or Fastboot) and I can even had a temporary recovery with the nexus toolkit. but:
-Impossible to flash the bootloader, I do everything right, there is not "error" but at the end nothing changes, I'm back with the HHZ11D version and not the latest on I'm trying to get the HHZ11Z.
-Impossible to flash the recovery, same as the bootloader, version teamwin 2.6.3.2.
-impossible to flash a rom, and I don't have one anyway....
Here we are, I think I tried everything, but any clue would be appreciated. I hope I can fix this...
Thanks for your help.
And finally a picture of my fastboot -w when I do one, does it seem normal to you ?

Try in fastboot, fastboot oem lock. Then reboot and see if the bootloader is locked. I'm guessing it isn't and your emmc is bad.

No, you're hosed. Rma would be the option but not in your case. You're not going to be able to flash anything.

If you can lock it, unlock it again then fastboot flash the cache.img from the factory image

You may be lucky. here you will find the cache.img on method 2. If it doesn't work, do the method 1

Come on guys, grab the url from logcat please.
just did a google search but I only find this and this and another site but no one seems to know what's been fixed

Does it help?
EDIT: HERE YOU GO http://android.clients.google.com/packages/passion/signed-passion-FRF91-from-FRF85B.db99fdf1.zip
Yea I just got it, straight from FRF83
Any idea what changes this build contains?
Everytime i receiv an update OTA when i reboot i get an error in the downloaded file, can it be bec i have the bootloader unlocked?
it says ts not signed or smntg
And sorry to crosspost, but does recovery-root still work on FRF91?
Unlocking bootloader will not cause update to fail. If you have custom recovery and/or custom ROM, it will.
My guess would be that it's probably a fix to the exploit which allows people to root without unlocking the bootloader.

If you have changed your recovery from stock, then the OTA won't install.

Safe to apply to AT&T phones?

You could always just fastboot boot the stock recovery and flash it so that you don't have to reflash the recovery again.
Greetings, this might be a better place to post this. Up till now my roots have been ok and bootloader and modems are ok. But recently (yesterday) i wanted to use Xtresolite Rom again and wanted to update to newest recommend BL and Modem, however im getting a fail. I already tried a new computer so its not that. I never had this issue before and its a bit concerning.
The phone works ok, but i can no longer update the BL and Modem on it.... any ideas on how to get around this ? Reset it or something like that ? I have read that a possible complete FORMAT might fix it, but does that mean it removes everything on the phone including SDcard storage files or just the mainphone files ? Here is a screenshot of what i get in Odin, would really appreciate some help.

If you previously firmware (OI9 and new) had it, you can return to the boot loader only to release OI9.
Older bootloader cause an error.

Actually issue is resolved, i installed Samsung Phone Info from app store and i double checked my bootloader and modem installed i am already running latest bootloader from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/development/g920i-bootloader-modem-updated-10-10-t3221796
So i guess the fact is i cannot downgrade maybe thats why this is the issue. So i think all is ok
Thanks for the assistance
Hello,
I have ran out of things to try with this phone - hoping someone out there knows if there is something that can be done.
Was given the device to remove the FRP (Factory reset protection). I set up fastboot, adb drivers and started messing around with it.
First of all, I tried upgrading to the newest MM version for it using the official images from the Motorola website - turns out it does not remove the google account lock, and the version was different than the ones they use in the 'FRP bypass' videos.
Then, I tried downgrading it to 5.1.1 (the same way I did to MM, using fastboot), and some of the commands failed - resulting in the phone not booting up, unless I go straight for the Vol down + power button to get to the bootloader.
Lastly, I tried flashing an older version of MM, only to get 'failed to validate system image' on boot (picture below). Is there something that could fix this/remove the damn FRP? The warranty does not matter, the thing is unusable - any kind of ROM etc. would do. Debugging is disabled.

was the phone stolen? because why would anyone hard reset their device, just asking.
dont know any solution for you
and btw.. NEVER try to downgrade your device it can cause problems, as you see
Not sure, it was given as a collateral for a job or something, and the guy disappeared. Basically, it is either try and make it usable or just throw it away. Trying to figure out what are the options at the moment.

You need to re-flash the latest firmware you flashed to your device boot again. To downgrade you have to unlock the bootloader first, but the OEM unlock setting in developer settings must be turned on, what I think you can't do with the FRP lock.

Ok, I flashed it again, it's 6.0.0. I even managed to get into the settings by doing the usual FRP bypass, however, this version does not have the developer options enabled by clicking the build number, and the 'users' setting is not there, therefore I cannot enable USB debugging like everyone does.
Your first error was upgrading to the latest version, because the newest version they have fixed.
I don't know if this will help, but in fastboot mode try to format system, and reflash the stock!

No, I have not. Had a real laugh though - I was able to access the settings - disable setup wizard - open chrome using google now, download apk's (like nova launcher) and have a home screen, browse apps all while FRP'ed. No go on the debugging/reset though :crying:
If can install apps try to root it with kingroot, and replace the stock recovery with TWRP, then format everything, and put another ROM into, after that reflash your stock. I don't know if you can do this without unlocking the bootloader.
I have seen some devices allowing do root + TWRP, without unlocking the bootloader. But you can try it!

I had the unfortunate accident of my 4a going through a full laundry cycle. I didn't expect it to even turn on, but it did.
No I am stuck at pic related.
Perhaps the memory is gone for good or something else? I am not expecting the phone to work normally, but I would like to get some pictures in their original quality, including some videos that exist only there.
Any ideas what I can do on my own? How realistic would it be for a recovery shop to be able to do it?

Since you're stuck at fastboot, you could try to flash full factory image...although, I wouldn't keep my hopes up high...
Let it rest for a full day first. Hopefully not all of it's main components were affected....

It has been a few days since the event. Wouldn't flashing a factory image delete all the data I am hoping recover, though?
Or do you just mean the boot image?

No, I mean full factory image.
To retain your data you just need to remove the "-w" flag you see at the update command on the flash-all script.
This is what I get

Seems to me that your bootloader is locked. You didn't unlock your bootloader, did you? If not, that won't work.
You could try the full OTA instead of factory image. See if it works.

Can you get into bootloader? Completely turn off the phone. Then wait a few seconds to make sure it is off. Afterwards, press power and volume down at the same time until you see bootloader menu.
If you can get into bootloader, go to android flash tools website and reflash.
When the screen goes black to reboot, hold down power + volume down. You should boot to bootloader doing that. Then you can flash the factory image and that should fix it... I think. I've never used Pixel Flasher before. I just do everything manually myself.

Then you can can either download the factory image to manually patch (making sure to use platform tools r33.0.3 and NOT latest) or you can use android flash tools the website (If you use website, it's just follow instructions, select the image you want to flash, select options, then flash).

Are you rooted and do you have any Magisk modules installed? Sounds like maybe a Magisk mod may be in need of an update and caused a bootloop. If this is the case, you can choose to disable Magisk mods in Pixel Flasher and flash again.
Kind of hard to tell without much details given...
Worked thanks So much
I was rooted not sure how I screwed up back to factory now

Like what Lughnasadh said, it is hard to pinpoint the reason why it screwed up without enough information. Could be platform tools depending on what version you used. And it could also be your magisks modules that are causing the loop. Or the options you selected in pixel flasher. Not sure tbh. Or maybe an entire problem we aren't aware of lol.
Personally, what I would do is a clean flash. Cleanest way to do it. Just back up everything. Do a clean install of the image. Reroot and reinstall all apps/modules afterwards.
