The story starts when I installed KingRoot and successfully rooted my device. Then I went on experimenting and childishly played around and uninstalled some system apps. But when I saw that my device's many functionalities stopped working, I thought of replacing the official android with a custom rom. I installed the CWM recovery successfully using Flashify, placed the zip file in the internal drive, formatted and cleaned up everything as directed by the web, and flashed the custom rom. But then the rom doesn't boot! Stuck at the boot logo. There is no backup for me to restore and I've tried several custom roms with no effect, it just doesn't go beyond the boot logo.
I am on Linux Mint machine, researched a lot but couldn't find a way to restore my system using fastboot, sptools (with wine), flashtool,, whatever, it's been all a headache. I even tried the SPTool on my friend's Windows 8 pc, but couldn't setup the driver thing I guess, and it couldn't work. I'm fed up with it all. Can some calm and expert person give me a very novice step by step guide on restoring my phone's working condition. A guide for my Linux Mint machine would be most preferable, however if it's for a Windows PC, it would do as well. Thank you.

Last week I rooted Lenovo S660P using the Kingo root application, the process was successfully completed and the device indicated, "Do you want to make SuperSu a superuser?" to which I answered yes to all.
My problem started when I was prompted to restart the device by ROM manager I had installed, the device went off but instead of rebooting, it gave me a white screen (Bootloop). This has been the case since then.
I had not activated debugging mode, also MTK Droid Tools application does not detect it. Since then I have tried to install another ROM, a custom ROM because I do not have access to the Stock ROM without success. I am asked to provide the scatter file by Smart Flash Tool, yet I don't have one nor am I able to create one because MTK Droid Tool does not detect the device.
The custom ROM that does not end in scatter error (Invalid OTA, no scatter file detected, application aborted) ends with the message, "Application aborted"
If you have the original scatter file for my device I will also appreciate.
I had created a backup but the SD crashed with it, hence, I have no access to any backup.
I will appreciate you assistance in restoring my phone.
Hi,
You likely need to flash the stock firmware again. Also, rom manager causes many issues for people, I would not use it personally.
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device. You might have better luck searching for your firmware on google, or contacting the manufacturer about firmware and flashing instructions.
You can ask for help here too if you wish,

i recently got my new phone. i rooted it with framaroot and changed its bootanimation. When i restarted it a couple of times afterwards, i got stuck at the bootanimation itself. I tried flashing the stock rom using sp flash tool and the stock rom i got from the internet but the tool cant seem to recognise my mobile and wont proceed. Restarting and clearing the cache and factory reset didnt work as well.
Any help regarding this would be appreciated.

Okay so I love my HTC One but..... A while ago out of the blue, It started acting funny. The operating system (Android Revolution at the time) started to stop working. I'd never had any troubles with Android Revolution until then. So I decided to re flash the OS, which was a really bad idea. I made a TWRP backup before I started anything, like I usually do. I was planning on doing a full system wipe for a clean install so I needed to move the backup off the device. That's when I found out that the USB wasn't working so I ended up moving the backup via wifi. So I gave the phone a full wipe and started installing my OS again (A newer version of Android Revolution). It definitely wasn't corrupt, I checked the Md5 sum. From there it refused to install so I gave up gave it all another wipe and I tried to put the old backup back on but I couldn't. That's where I'm at now and have been the last month or two.
Current State:
Able to access bootloader and recovery only
Nothing on the device's storage
Only Charging while off
Not recognized by my computer (ADB and Fastboot)
Not able to mount USB OTG in TWRP
Not able to mount system in TWRP
What I have Tried:
Different USBs
Just about every different driver I can find
Different ADB and Fastboot versions
Different computers
Device Information:
M7_UL
S-ON
HBOOT-1.56.0000
RADIO-4A.17.3250.14
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
Recovery - TWRP v2.6.3.3
I've been looking all over the internet for a solution but I can't find anything to help me fix this.

hi,
I am using a micromax A117. I have changed my ROM a couple of times. couple days back I changed my ROM to MIUI Rom. but as I didn't like it much I tried to change the ROM and I was surprised to find that my phone would not start in recovery mode and would continue with regular boot. So i tried installing TWRP recover and after i selected the particular recovery image to be flashed and selected boot to recovery my phone gets hung at the boot logo. I even tried taking of the battery and on but it didn't help.
Then i thought of using ABD to reboot the bootloader but my PC wouldn't detect the phone. I am stuck with almost a dead phone now. Need help ASAp

Hi, I acquired a tablet off my mate a couple of week ago, which he was throwing away because it wouldn't get off the android screen..So I set my self a challenge to get the thing going again Having not got any experience in this sort of field & finding out the tablet is Chinese I knew it could be a big task with little resources, though keen to educate myself! Anyway I set out on this educational journey a couple of week ago & researched into the task ahead. Now I've hit a brick wall & need pointing in the right direction if anybody can help!
Here's what's happened.
I could open the stock recovery
connected to laptop & after installing drivers, ADB etc I could connect through ADB
Tried to boot into fastboot & it just does a normal boot!
Managed to find a rom which I thought would work & flashed it via a CWM sideload recovery!
Great piece of kit it worked a treat alongside the stock recovery!
now it worked though the touchscreen didn't, so I restored a backup from the CWM recovery maker & viola back to where I started
Then I found a TWRP version that I thought would work - so I flashed that!
Now it boots in TWRP though the touchscreen doesn't work & that's not good with TWRP
It can still connect in recovery to ADB
I can push & pull files & ADB shell
I've come to the conclusion that the only way I could get back to where I started, at least is by somehow making a fresh rom from the CWM backup I have or flash the firmware which booted up. (bearing in mind I omitted the recovery image from the build when I flashed)
Now the only way around this (from what info I've gathered) is to use a shell script which will make TWRP automatically read my update.zip what I've pushed over to the sdcard then flash on reboot..
I've found this
(google) shell-script-to-reboot-into-recovery-and-install
I've copied the script into an editor (on my phone - I've got a windows computer) saved as .sh, pushed into sdcard on tablet & tried to execute.
adb shell says
# /sdcard/myscript.sh: line 3: reboot: not found
Could anyone help me on my quest?
I've got nowt to lose & I'm quite enjoying the experience
Thanks in advance!!
