Serious issue need help urgently!! - General Questions and Answers

I am using micromax A90s. I was using custom rom feather that is 4.2.2. two days ago my mobile started showing google services stop working and all messages and it was hanging alot. So I decided to reset my mobile to its factory settings. I boot into to recovery and reset my phone, but when It boot up nothing was changed. it didn't reset. then I used SPF tool and tried installing different ROM. It shows ok that ROM as installed successfully but when I boot still nothing was changed. I tried formatting and deleted my phone storage partition using mini tool partition wizard but all files the come back automatically. Now I don't know what to do. any suggestion and help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Okay, if you have access to bootloader fastboot mode,
Then unlock the bootloader by:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Then, flash any custom recovery by:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery pathname\recovery.img
From there, perform a complete wipe, and install a new ROM zip file (like CM11)

I mean, don't go into recovery.
Hold the button combination which shows a boot menu (including recovery)
There, you'll have an option called 'fastboot'.
Use that.

Yes, vol+ power. There you will have a 'fastboot' option.
That command will work only when your phone is switched ON properly

Then, first flash a custom recovery using Mobile Uncle Tools from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971058

[Q] Stuck in "FASTBOOT MODE - NO BOOT OR RECOVERY IMG"

My NExus S is stuck on the screen that says:
Fastboot Mode No Boot or Recovery IMg.
Product Name - Herring
HW Version - Rev34
Bootloader Version - D720SPRKC5
Baseband Version - D720SPRLCI
Carrier Inro - SPR
Serial Number 32300E25C33500EC
Lock State - Locked
options to select
Reboot Bootloader (gives me exact same screen) except it only says "Fastboot"
Reboot Back to the "FASTBOOT MODE - NO BOOT OR RECOVERY IMG"
Recovery (Can boot to CWM but I can't mount anything)
Power OFF (That works fine)
Then the little green man and the android logo
Followed by USB Control INIT
USB Control INIT End
STANDARD_SET_CONFIGURATION
Conventional wisdom says download some files and fix via fastboot. However in fastbootI can't run ANY of the steps without running FASTBOOT OEM UNLOCK. When I run it my phone asks if I really want to unlock the bootloader. when I choose YEs and hit power it just freezes there.
My next thought Boot to recovery and restore. A restore through recovery followed by a reboot leads me back to the original no boot or recovery img.
Okay I'll just sideload a working rom by mounting usb storage. Then I can flash it with CWM and be up and running.
but when I try to do mount the USB Storage I get "E:Unable to write to ums 1unfile (No such file or directory)"
Finally, Last ditch Effort, I'll load up ODIN and use that to put on a working recovery. there's forums all over the place explaining how to do that right? Well yes, but the links to the Tar file are all broken.
What next my friends? I'd really like to get this phone working.

what about just using adb? Can you find it when you type fastboot devices? If so there's a command in fastboot to reboot to recovery I think.
I on the other hand am screwed. I read in another forum that it hangs on unlock because the internal memory is fubar.

Solution for me:
1. Turn device on into Bootloop
2. Connect it via USB (PC founds it)
3. type in CMD "adb reboot recovery"
4. device is in recovery
5. reflash everything i wanted :good:

[Q] Nexus 5 stuck on boot, and wont go into recovery help?

Well, I was using an app called screen dimmer, and did pressed the button to dim the screen when all of a sudden it froze. It was like this for a while so I restarted it, it is able to go in fastboot, but nothing else. When i start It it hangs on the boot loader screen and can stay like that all day. if I go into recovery the screen goes black and the display is only backlit. I was going to try to to use the adb to factory reset it, but I could not get it to recognize the nexus 5 as a device. I used a bunch of different drivers. I did root my phone, and have the exposed framework but this was done a long time ago and I had no problems since. no idea how to fix this any help?!?!? Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this I'm new to this site.

You need to find a driver that works so it'll recognize the device. Once you do this, you need to flash boot.img to restore the recovery since not working. Then, redo the ROM or restore from backup if you can. Flashing a new recovery boot.img should fix the issue.

Hi, In first place, You are in the right place to get help:good:
2. ADB won't work on fastboot nor in a damaged recovery.
3. fastboot works:victory: Try to flash recovery once again (fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img)
4. if 3 works, wipe system, caches. Flash the Rom you want, don't use that app anymore.

There is a chance to keep your data + storage contents. If you manage to flash and boot into recovery, in 'wipe' menu manually check-mark "cache,system"
don't mark internal "storate and data", nothing will happen to your media and apps data.

May be able to dirty flash but most likely, since you had the screen dimmed too much, you'll have to wipe data in order to override/remove the problem. You can try this way but may just send you back through this whole process if problem reoccurs. I'd just wipe the data to be safe.

The general idea is that your recovery is broken.
So, you need to flash a new recovery by placing a recovery.img file into your fastboot folder in the computer(recommend twrp). Like you did the first time you fladhed a recovery.
Then, turn off the phone, press volume down+ power button and it will boot into bootloader. Make sure it is on fastboot mode. After that, on the computer open cmd on the fastboot folder and and type:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img,
press enter.
It should flash a new recovery image if done correctly. Then, poweroff the phone, boot again into bootloader, choose recovery and it will reboot into recovery. Then follow. The steps of my first post.

You have a couple of options depending on how much data you can afford to lose on your phone. The least intrusive is to adb push a Rom on to your phone when you're in twrp Then flash that rom in twrp
The easier, but you'll lose all data on your phone is to flash the flash-all.bat file in fastboot

[Q] Where has recovery gone?

no access to recovery
I've got big problem. My One Mini is fine until I try to go into recovery. It refuses to go there.
I get fastboot and bootloader menus fine. It enters bootloader, but if I try to go into recovery, it just goes back to the main bootloader menu.
The problem started when I flashed CWMRecovery. Fastboot and adb recognise my phone, and accept commands, but when I try to fastboot flash recovery in it sends an error message. File not found.
I tried " fastboot boot recovery.img" but that just froze the machine .
When I try to get into recovery from rom manager or ROM toolbox pro, it takes me to the fastboot menu, not into recovery, and we're back to square one, as above.
Running android 4.3 Sense 5.5 software 2.12.401.1 Supercid 11111111
rooted and unlocked
To get the phone to work again, I have to hold power down for about 10 secs direct from fastboot/bootloader...may have to do this several times before it boots into Android.
If I turn power off from bootloader, it returns to bootloader when I power up again.
If I don't turn the phone off, once in main application, it's all OK.
Ho hum.
As I say , it works like a dream until I want to go into recovery.
Any ideas, please?
Thanks

The correct command to flash the recovery is
Code:
fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_image.img
see also: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_fastboot_intro
Booting into recovery should be possible with
Code:
adb reboot recovery
I didnt tried CWM on the Mini, but used it on my old Marvel. I'm satisfied with TWRP for the Mini.
greetings
Yes, thanks. I know the commands should work...but that's the trouble..they don't!
I can get into the recovery menu...HBOOT /FASTBOOT / RECOVERY and so on, but selecting "RECOVERY" simply sends me back to HBOOT menu.
I can't flash anything under FASTBOOT, either. I've been doing this sort of thing for several years without trouble....until now!
So come on chaps..thinking caps on , please.

Hey guys, I received my OnePlus One today yayy!
BUT. I booted the phone, configured everything like I wanted, installed all the apps I wanted and then I got an OTA update so I figured I would do that too!
The phone rebooted and... stuck on the 1+ logo / powered by android.
I asked around and people on the OnePlus forums told me to boot into recovery and perform a factory reset / clear cache.
I did this and my phone booted again. I reconfigured everything, reinstalled everything and I decided to reboot the phone.
It got stuck again on the logo.
Now though... I can't boot into recovery mode. I asked for help again but no answers... through some research, I installed Android SDK and tried to open a command prompt and type "adb devices". Nothing appears in the list.
Can someone help me? I just want to cry...
Before you can use ADB, you need the ADB drivers. Download the OnePlus One Toolkit and use the feature that downloads and installs the correct drivers. Or you can manually look for them.

Drivers are already installed, the phone is stuck in the boot sequence.
It's detected by both "adb devices" and "fastboot devices". It responds to commands like "fastboot reboot" but since it cannot reboot, this achieves nothing. I can't "fastboot oem unlock" because the phone doesn't load the OS.

Hey, thanks for your reply!
I'm also getting help from the OnePlus forums but here are the latest updates:
I managed to get into fastboot and flash everything (boot, cache, system, recovery etc.). However, everytime I reboot, it still hangs on the boot screen. I have to leave the phone off for about 5 minutes, get into recovery mode, clear the cache and boot into the OS... every... single... time I reboot.
Is there a reason for this? Should I install another ROM (like Paranoid Android or Color OS) instead? Is there a fix to this or is it even software-based?
Unlock bootloader ,flash twrp,flash flashable rom zip.In twrp wipe everything,then go to mount & then uncheck system.Then flash the rom.zip

Need Help. Nexus 5 says google when trying to turn on

I was trying to get the latest twrp '2.8.7.2'. I downloaded it and flashed the img to recovery and nothing seemed to happen so I tried flashing it to boot then I tried to reboot the system. Now when I try to turn it on I get stuck on the Google like it is turning but it just gets stuck. I tried Charging it now when I charge it I get stuck on the battery logo. When I try booting it Booting it into recovery(twrp) I get a black screen. I can tell the Screen is on because of the dim glow it gives off but it is not doing anything.

All you have to do is boot into your bootloader (Power + Volume Up + Volume Down at the same time) and flash the stock recovery.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Chances are you flashed an incorrect version of TWRP meant for another phone hence the boot loop.

You dont need recovery, you need bootloader.

Can you please explain to me exactly what to do. thank you. also my bootloader is unlocked. I also can get to fastboot so what is the diffrence between bootloader and fastboot.
Hold down the volume +, volume -, and power button. You'll be taken to a screen with the word START at the top. Now, connect the phone to your Windows computer using the USB cable, open a command prompt and type "fastboot flash recovery nameof twrpfile.img", press the enter key, use the volume button to select recovery, use the power button to enter recovery, press the power button, press volume + button, and you should enter TWRP.
Thank you but I do not own a windows computer
Then look up the respective commands. You flashed twrp over your kernel, you need to flash a proper boot.img (kernel) if you want the phone to boot. Fastboot is ran through bootloader. Flash the proper kernel in bootloader using fastboot.

It might not have been working because I did not enable USB Debuging. :crying:
USB debugging is required for adb commands. With fastboot mode, debugging isn't necessary.
