Recently accidently deleted my boot.img because I wanted to change the boot animation. Ended up being the biggest mistake I made. I decided to try and recover the file i deleted by flashing another boot.img, but i soon realised that the boot.img i flashed wasn't compatible with the device which caused my phone to bootloop. I know that if i want a solution to this issue, I'd have to install a new rom which is compatible with my phone but i'm having trouble looking for the update.zip for my phone. Is it possible that someone could upload the update.zip for N920e so i can fix this issue?
Hi.
Unfortunately, flashing a boot.img of another device probably sealed the fate of your phone. However, you can ask around in the Android Q and A section over here:

Good Luck!

Hi guys.
So today I was like experimenting with my phone (3 months old) and I was trying to install new ROM on it. I couldn't install custom ROM (CM 11.0) from my recovery mode because I was always getting some sort of errors so I took it to the next level and tried to do it with my PC. I downloaded ROM on PC and tried to install it with fastboot mode and the program that I downloaded on my PC asked me to flash .img file not .zip and I(dumbass) found boot.img inside of .zip file and selected only that boot.img file and flashed it. And now its stuck in boot loop.
My phone is not really famous and its not brand phone. It's "H18 NOA C24" some copy of S3 Mini I couldn't find the stock firmware or ROM for it on the internet. Please help, tell me what can I do to bring my phone back to live.
Thanks
Hi,
So what happened is you just flashed a kernel which probably isn't compatible with current ROM
Unfortunately I can't find anything about your device here so I would ask your question in the q&a section here and hope someone will have a fix for you

Hello,
first of all, i have to say i am googling araound and found nothing, exept how i use a scatterfile etc.
My problem:
After flashing a custom cwm with spflashtools to my jiayu g2f, i got the nvram warning under wifi.
This warning comes, because wifi MAC is random and IMEI is lost.
This is reproducable.
So my question is:
All tutorials said, flashing a custom cwm with spflash is not a problem, just select modem db file and scatter, select only the recovery and change the file to the custom one. I got the custom one from needrom. It works, when flashing via mtk droid, but when flashing with spflash, i get the nvram error.
I recognize, that the size of the file is another than the original size in the official rom. Isnt there a need of editing the scatterfile to fit it to the new size or is the recovery area on the phone big enough?
Thanks for reading,
Nine

Hey, thanks for answering. I only add the device name to be more specific. But in my opinion it is a mtk scatter file question in general.
Is the recovery partition excatly the size of the recovery.img. So, when i want to flash a greater recovery, i have to edit the scatter file?
Again, ask in the section I have linked. ?
Thank you. Thread closed.
Hi guys! I accidentally bricked my phone when changing the font style. If I remember it correctly, I may have changed the path file where-in the changes will be applied for the font style, and after I rebooted the phone it is just stuck on the startup screen.
I already tried factory resetting the phone, but I dont have CWM or even TWRP recovery if there is for this kind of phone.
I can only access recovery mode but haven't tried the factory mode yet. Will try to install CWM later.
Is there any chance that it may work again if I flash a ROM even though I am still using the original ROM?
Any other methods that I can try?
Thanks!
Hi,
You could try a rom, but you'd need a custom recovery for that, usually. Or flash the factory firmware again. I can't find anything relevant on XDA for factory files tho. So you can ask here, or contact the manufacturer...

I'll be trying it later and hopefully it works, i'm thinking of flashing the factory firmware again but I can't find the files though.
Thanks for the tip!

I run a Micromax Canvas Tab P650. I committed an error.
I edited the build.prop file and changed the whole of that to that of Nexus 5. Now, when I rebooted, my GUI became very strange and apps stopped to work. Somehow, I re-edited my build.prop file and pasted the original content. Now, when I reboot, Nothing appears but Canvas Tab(the boot screen).
I do not have any nandroid backup.
I do not have CWM OR TWRP.
Please help
Error while flashing stock rom
It showed me this message. Kindly do help
Thanks
Hi,
Changing or flashing anything not made for your exact device make and model number usually causes very bad issues, sometimes bricked devices even. Not a good thing to do.
Here's a thread with links to your firmware, make sure to get the correct one...

The rar file of the stock rom which I got from the link provided by you is not getting extracted properly and winrar is showing errors.
Please help me.
You will need to ask in the thread I linked about that. ?
Ok... So I really need some help with this one but I have no idea what to start with.
A few weeks ago I decided my phone needed a software update so I started looking into the possibility of rooting and installing a CFW, no big deal, I previously owned a ZTE Blade, which I rooted and and flashed a Rom, so I had the basic knowledge on rooting, cwr and rom flashing. After some searching around, i thought i found a lollipop rom that i thought it will work on my phone. Tried to flash cwr but failed and now my phone is in a boot loop but I cannot access the recovery menu.
Is there any way to fix this?
