While i was trying to install the latest official rom to my device (The new Padfone Infinity A86 T004) it is bricked, Now i am facing a very bad (miserable) situation.
When turning on the device it shows me the ASUS logo and in top of the screen a message says : ERROR: Can not boot Invalid boot image!!
And my big problem is that i can't access any of ADB, recovery mode or even fastboot. the phone is undetectable by my PC at all.
I don't know how to force fastboot ... if i can reach the beautiful fastboot mode i will be able to handle the next steps in the fixing journey.
I have red that as long as the device shows something it means that it is not totally bricked .. but how to get out of this situation?
Any suggestions ?
Sorry my englsih is´nt good.
So you can´t broken your phone with OTA Updates
You can delet all files and sysfile and the asus isn´t broken.
you just need patience.
make sure you have the correct driver
turn off your phone,
press vloume up and power, so the phone stay with boot logo, so you are in the fastboot mode.
there you can use my exploit btw the howto downgrade A86, but the downgrade dosent works.
so unzip the newest rom .zip out of asus page....
copy the boot.img and recovery.img in your minimal fast adb folder
so you can:
c:\ADB>fastboot -w ( really wipe all partions and data of your phone!)
c:\ADB\fastboot flash boot boot.img
c:\ADB>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
copy the complete OTA Update Zip on your phone (internal sd or external is matter)
reboot phone and install the zip out of recovery.
there may be errors come to the first, if that should be the case
then repeat the case up to 3 times
I hope you can read and understand it .
if you need further assistance , please contact me at any time , like even on my homepage lange23.de

Thank you for your help.
The issue is that the phone now is not detected by the pc at all , i can not access the fast boot ...
Do you really pressed Volume up and Power at the same time, if startet???
If the phone during normal start at the stops bootlogo that's not fastboot!!!
Turn really off an than hold volume up an press Powerbutton, hold it up to boot logo.
then you are really in fastboot mode!

after turning off
when i press volume up + power button the phone vibrates and the asus logo displayed. then i release power button and keep pressing volume up button => and after 1 second an error appears ERROR: Can not load Invalid boot image!!
when pressing power button + volume down button a menu appears with two options 1.Enter recovery mode and 2.Exit update mode.
when choosing option 1 , the menu disappeared and the asus logo appears without the previous error message.
when choosing option 2 , the the menu disappeared and the asus logo appears and the previous error message.
all these cases the phone didn't go to fastboot mode and never detected by the pc.
when i press volume up + power button the phone vibrates and the asus logo displayed. then i release power button and keep pressing volume up button don´t keep pressing volume up,
fasboot mode only power & up, until the logo. Pressing this two to logo and then left them. the logo sty tuned in display so you re in fastboot
if you pressing up too jump in question menü,
if you pressing at startup power & down jumped directly into question menü, but this menü is wrong for you. you need only fastboot nothing more

Yes, no recovery
And yes PC does not find any new devices
I can not understand it...
I once the boot.img deleted in the phone and also get such error message .
but my systems find an Android device and i can use the fastboot
Any way , a good news that the phone was only few days out of its package and i managed to return it back to the seller and will send to me a new one.
But i am really disappointed with ASUS not to make any unlock tool for the new padfone infinity.
Once, i believed that as long as there is no physical damage in the phone, there will be always a way around to fix it by fastboot. but it discovered that it is not correct and the fast boot itself can be damaged..
Any way thank you so much the only man helped me here sinus23.
I got this problem too
Me too
I got this problem
guys you got to do this , i am having yureka plus5510a no fastboot no recovery
bros no recovery no fastboot boot loop tried all combination not charging nothing what you think you guys are genius give me some let me tell you the whole thing how i ended here .. its all started with the king root(worst decision ) i wanted to flash twrp in my yu yureka plus 5510a no idead what " A" stands for then i used flashify from playstore and downloaded the twrp by the official twrp and flashed it with the flashify and boom boot stuck with no recovery some how removing battery and connecting the phone goes to the charging disp from where i did enable the fast boot but cmd was not able to identify adb devices nor the flashboot commands were working so i did same with win 10 powershell but nothing no devices , so i decided to use a method of ygdp , much hopes with this used ***** 5.1.153.00.P0.160604.8675_I02.def.CPB ******* dont know where the log file is but it was showing old bootloader error downloading and error and error and terminated at 2 % , then this one of your thread by unziping the official files and clicking on flash-all.bat file which he provided img(1) "some trials your phone will be all right " i tried with some "waiting devices error " message but then it just started something happened oem unlock blah_blah and then successful , tried to boot again but this time phone was automatically jumping into fastboot mode , then i finally tried one last time in that power shell thing by typing using cmd and applied fastboot code , even no devices was showing in powershell ,, but then i used some different code something like "fastboot ix902 recovery " and i was able to install a real old twrp recovery.. phone was showing the cyanogen loading ....but later after 1 hour i felt its stuck = + = but luckily recovery was working but but dont know why the buttons setup used to go in fastboot mode was now taking me in recovery,, and fastboot was no longer acessable , i was fine with it so i downloaded latest recovery from your respected thread file named as " twrp-3.0.2-0-20160604-UNOFFICIAL-tomato.img " i wanted to install nougat aosp so i thought its a nice idea to update the recovery first i. so i did the normal recovery update from the recovery it self , and now i guess that recovery was so old , the new one was kinda mindblower for the older one and booom no recovery , no fastboot , tried all the combination and came up with this one volume+ vol- and power shown img (2) same as boot logo but a small "official" tag
pls help i know this post dont suits your professional level , right now i havent slept from kinda like three days cause of exams and this sarcasm of being in trouble.. like my every devices is rooted o in onyx m in tab 2 , it frustating pls help ........i will edit this and make it more polite but if you are one who can solve this .. i am ready to donate man. cause u deserve it , it will gonna be learning experience with you i will be totally into the reply and pls dont scream for drivers i did installed coolpad driver adb drivers everything required i feel yureka is a real fake company their parts isnt distinguishable i did al the steps nicely and cleanly except the (kingroot ) and pls dont brag about the old threads , they didnt helped me much.. and probably why my phone is kinda dead

Messed up big time and have surely bricked my device (permanently). Was trying to install Omni ROM on it. (Had it rooted, unlocked it, couldn't enter recovery then, kept getting error. tried to flash TWRP recovery 2.6.3.0 using terminal on tab, reset the tab, and we get where i am now)
Now all i get when i switch on my tab is an ASUS start screen with "The device is unlocked" message on the top left, and it just stays there. Same thing happens when start it with hold power button and volume down key or reset and volume down key. But when i press reset and volume UP key, the pc recognizes the tab, and i can install the driver either as:
1. ADB interface
2. Bootloader interface
3. Composte ADB interface
and the device comes up as an APX.
Tried to follow Buster99's method (of unbricking for TF300T) after the device drivers are installed, but all i get is <waiting for device>
Any hope of recovering it or am i really fckd.

My ME310T is bricked as well and I am not sure of what to do since using the pin hole to reset does not work.
It kept booting to the ASUS logo and I downloaded software from the ASUS site and put on my SD card and tried to load the new firmware/software. Now I only get a green android on his back with a red brick.
Please help, thanks

Omnirom on ME301T,
Hi,
I have a working ME301T with the latest (yesterday!) Omnirom on it, but......
I broke the glass when I was opening the device to replace a broken speaker.
I found (google is my friend) that these broken speakers cause a crash or reboot every now and then, the rubber comes loose, then the winding cause a short circuit when playing music, that crashes the unit.
So if you want to take your speaker and screen, and use our electronics, you have a working unit again.
Send me a PM with an offer if you are interested.
Un saludo from Spain,
Satbeginner

After you use the volume down key to highlight "Fastboot", do you then press the volume up key to select it? If you just sit there and wait it will reboot normally. You must press the volume up key after you've highlighted the menu option.

try this,
-install adb on your pc
-plug in phone when powered up
- open a command prompt in your adb dir
- type in: adb devices then enter. it should show your phone in the prompt. also check your phone, there may be a popup to acknowledge.
- rerun adb devices until it shows your phone properly or you cant proceed
-now type in: adb reboot bootloader
if it works, the phone should reboot to the fastboot screen.
if it doesnt stick in fastboot, im sorry but i dont know what else to tell you to try.
Thank-you for the Response

That's the entry to stock recovery. You have to push a combination of buttons from there to get into recovery. I forget the button combination, it has been posted many times, try searching or wait for someone else to jump in with the answer.

Not sure where to post this question been reading so many post my eyes are tired......
- XT926 upgraded to kitkat 183.46 last week via flash in RSD from JB 4.1.2
- Root went well DONE (Towel root .apk)
- Unlock went well DONE (Motopocalypse .apk) yes fastboot shows the #3
- Flashed TWRP 2.7.1 DONE (did it using the adb in motopocolypse)
- Backed up my current stock ROM in TWRP seemed to go well the program confirmed the backup was successful...So I thought
- Got confident and wanted to try flashing CM11 (Kitkat version)
- After flashing CM11 my phone got stuck at boot like many others have.... no problem I backed up my stock ROM in TWRP.....So I thought
- Went to restore my stock ROM using TWRP and yup you guessed it like many others the restore failed half way through
Not a big deal starting fresh can be a good thing BUT I really need my old text messages and all I have is a USB backup of the phone (Internal/SDcard) on my PC and of course the TWRP back-up on the SDcard that won’t restore ...... Is there any way to get these messages back to my phone????

Not sure how to help you with your immediate problem at hand, but going forward, I definitely recommend the sms backup + from the Google Play Store. Nice thing with that app is, you can link it to your gmail account, and all your text messages are backed up to your gmail.
Hello.I have a Gigaset qv1030 with Nvidia Tegra 4 cpu.
The main idea is that i cannot enter the android due to not knowing the password.So i ''tried'' to went to recovery for a fresh wipe/factory reset.Problem is no key combination does start up recovery.
Power+volume up does only power up the tablet / Power volume down does nothing and freezes the tablet (need to hold power for it to resests).
Only thing that does work however is if i press Volume up and power , after first vibration pressing volume down (with all 3 button now pressed) goes me into bootloader (says Unlocked) , and have the following options continue , reboot , fastboot protocol , recovery kernel , power off.
Fastboot protocol only restarts the tablet at the same point back into the bootloader (useless i guess)
Recovery kernel brings up an green android sitting on it's back with a red triangle saying no command. (tried every combination found , nothing seems to work)
Adb debugging is not set up in the settings i guess , and fastboot does appear in device manager if connected to a PC but it just does not accept any drivers (neither the modified google_usb drivers with tegra enabled , neither some found on the internet trough drivescape).So no device is found by the PC .
I did however finally installed the drivers using the drivescape driver with extracting driver , restarting with no driver signature and installing the driver using device manager update driver.Fastboot still does not see the tablet.
Connecting it while on the password screen, PC does recognize the tablet but that's it . No adb recognition.
This is as far as i got , idk what to do . Please help?
# PS yes i did not own the tablet , i got scammed by someone , and hoped to do the best out of the situation.
i think it is android 4.2

I've tried to install new system in my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 MTK.
From the system that I downloaded (I downloaded the correct version) I picked in TWRP to install from boot.img.
Unfortunately the system didnt boot but I could still enter recovery or fastboot.
Then I chose preloader.img and clicked reboot because I thought that at the worst case I'd jsut enter fastboot and fix it.
After this the screen doesnt lit up at all.
The only response is the vibration.
It keeps rebooting over and over again.
Is there any way to save it?
It seems to stop bootlooping when I hold all the buttons at once for a while but when I hold the power button the bootloop starts again.
Re-flash Stock ROM
Is it possible in my situation when I can't access recovery and fastboot?
Can you please tell how can I do that?
Have you tried: With phone off, hold volume up, and insert usb cable. This should turn the phone on and go into download mode or something like that.

I believe its called the fastboot mode and as I said I unfortunately can't go there :/
Yes, we are talking about Mi logo stuck problem during boot. ... OR mobile goes in bootloop where every time shows Mi logo on the screen and shut House Cleaning Services Dubai
While installing your stock rom for your mediatek phone using sp flash tool just click the format all + downlaod option. This may blank out your imei and personal phone specific info
guys plz, you're talking like if I had any access to my phone.
I think I wrote it quite clearly that the only response that I get are vibrations and I dont see Mi logo. It's on for like a split second. Can't go to fastboot or recovery.
I talked about it with a guy on discord and it's loading preloader before boot that should go first so it can't be helped without valid tools. Makes sense to me, already bought a new phone.
Ok Guys So I Shouldn't Have Done This But I Used Fastboot To Flash Recovery And I think I Did It Wrong. It Said "ok" And Finished And I Rebooted Phone It Resetted And Then Stuck On The Orange State Bootloader Message. I Do The Recovery Mode And Goes Black And Nothing Is Responsive For a While, Sometimes Longer Than Others. This Happens If I Start Phone Normal Or Try Fastboot Or Download.
Because Of My Mistake I Cannot Connect To Pc Software And Im Not Sure Of What I Can Do. I Feel Like Im Not Going To Like The Answer For This But I Got To Take The Blame For This.
Btw i Have A Samsung galaxy Note 20 Ultra Sm-N986u
I think your phone is hard bricked
so you can't get fastboot using volume up+power or via adb?
rescue from manufacturer site pos or just device not being recognised?
It isn't hard bricked it's just way of Samsung trying to make life of simple people more difficult, people who paid for Samsung phones lots of money.
To sort that screen issues what you can surely do is,
Simply press volup + voldown buttons at the same time, no matter if you're on that orange screen or whatever just press those those two buttons at the same time and keep pressing them while you connect your phone to pc. you will boot into download mode. Then flash stock firmware for your phone. After stock of flashed Reboot and start your phone, go to developer options see if oem unlock option is there if it is then oem unlock it if it is not then go back to settings manually change date to year ago, then go to updates disable auto update, connect to WiFi, and press on update several times untill window shows up saying no updates, then go to developer options you should see oem unlock, unlock it.
Then boot into download mode and make sure you have working copy of recovery.
And make sure you follow instructions of whoever recovery you installed on how to boot into recovery. I have S20 plus and too had troubles with it, and the only working recovery for my phone is twrp customised. To boot into it after flashing recovery from odin auto reboot disabled I pressed voldown and power, USB cable connected, then after screen goes off I changed from voldown to volup while kept pressing power button and cable connected. Orange screen with warning showed up for 5 sec I kept pressing and it bottled to twrp and then I was able to install custom rom beyond rom and while installing in aroma I was able ti choose option to remove orange screen.
That's it.
I ran into the same error. I mistakenly loaded twrp's recovery into userdata instead of ap section. The phone was stuck at the orange screen and nothing was happening whatever i pressed. I waited till the battery to dry out and with 0% battery, i directly connected to pc and was able to get into download mode. Then i flashed stock and everything is now back to normal.
