[Q] [BRICKED]Cubot GT72

I bought a Cubot GT72 from the net - its basically a chinese knock-off with some very nice specs. And it was working great out of the box; but I had to experiment - right?
Edit: cannot post links; but if you got to www cubot net - you can find the phone easily. The stock ROM is also available.
I fired up MTK-Tools and rooted the phone - no problem there. Then I tried to create a custom CWM and install - that's when things starting going down the drain. It overwrote the recovery and boot partitions - so the phone stopped working. And since then I have been trying various ways to unbrick it.
Luckily, I have another phone with the exact same specs - and was able to download a backup using MTK-Tools and another one using SPFlash.
Problem - the phone is not switching on at all. When I connect it to the computer (after installing the MTK drivers) - nothing happens. When I connect without battery and keep the Up volume pressed - the computer detects an "MTK COM Port", installs it and within 5-10 seconds the port disappears, comes back after 5-10 seconds - and this cycle keeps repeating. I'm not able to connect to the phone using wither MTK-Tools or SPFlash.
When I connect the working phone - it shows up as "MTK VIA COM Port" and I can connect to it using SPFlash.
Have opened the phone and looked for test points - found one that switches on the phone and connects to the computer - but the result is the same as when I connect with the volume up pressed.
Please help - I'm at my wits end.

Ok Google "mt6572 com port drivers" and look for ***.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.***‎, install the software off that site and see if your computer recognizes the com port, hopefully you'll be able to flash the original rom back to it, let me know how you get on :good:

Thanks Neo, The driver is installed - the problem I'm facing is that the phone keeps going offline every 30-40 seconds and hence am unable to flash.

okies
OK thanks for the reply. Its obvious these MTxxxx devices wait for a signal when you plug them in.
1.Try going to the SDK folder and open a command prompt, type fastboot flash boot "boot.img" > point the boot.img to where you have downloaded the original boot.img for the device.
2.When the fastboot gives you the [waiting for device] prompt plug in your phone.
Let me know how you get on, i'm going to be working on a program to flash these phones from windows. :good:
p.s if the above works then flash your original recovery as well

Hi Neo - tried. The phone gets detected, but fastboot remains stuck at [waiting for device]. Please see screenshot.
Also, I think the preloader is also gone

Diffrent Drivers
Ok i noticed on there website that there are a different set of drivers, where the ones you have installed emulates a com port the other ones gives you direct access to the USB port, go to adb and type adb devices so that your phone will show up in the device manager, uninstall those drivers and install these ones ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm.
Then try and flash the preloader in the usual way, first type flash preloader {name of file} then connect your phone and hopefully you will be able to flash your phone again.
Let me know how you get on again :good:

Apologies for the late reply - tried your method - the phone gets detected as MediaTek DA USB VCOM port - but fastboot or SP flash are unable to detect.
Also, now I have managed to brick the other phone also. Was trying to upgrade the ROM from cubot's website. And even that one is bricked
Really frustrated here.

The full ROM dump has been uploaded here - is there any way I can simply flash the entire dump back into the phone.
http://www.4shared.com/file/wtNcfbRu/ROM_0.html

hi, did you manage to work out anything? i have the exact same problem with my GT72, and i'm out of ideas.

I finally gave up and sent it for repairing. The vendor has been trying to repair it for the last 2 weeks and has given up too. The problem with my phones is that they are not original cubot - the seller on aliexpress is selling fake cubot phones - and we're unable to find the correct files to write to the phone.
Now if only I could find a way to write back the ROM0 file without the scatter files - I had though that would be easy, but am unable to do anything about it

maybe i have a fake one, too then. wierd stuff, that is. faking a $60 phone...
anyway, i'm guessing you can only use that ROM_0 file to create a proper preloader.bin for the phone, but you need a working one for that.
you could do that in MTK droid root & tools, but since our phones doens't get detected, we're stumped.
i think having the right preloader could push us to the right direction, but i'm not planning to order a new phone to revive my dead one
anyway, if you make any progress, let us know!

I backed up the ROM_0 file from a working phone (had 2 - broke both); have uploaded it and shared in this thread. So, if you can create the preloader.bin from it - please be my guest.

i know you uploaded it, but the problem is that i can't do anything with it in MTK droid root & tools, since it only works if there is a working phone connected to the pc.

I had even created a scatter file using MTK Droid - the only problem is the scatter doesn't work with the phone. See if it helps you.

here's my "progress":
i was able to salvage a preloader.bin from your dump, this was the only one i could get flash tool to start preparing flashing.
i ran into numerous errors after that, but i managed to build a seemingly flashable rom, but it just does not work.
i could format the nand with it, but when i try to flash, it says that the bootlader exceeds partition boundary, whatever that means.
so i'm pretty much stuck at this point, but i'll attach the preloader for you, maybe it will work with your scatter.
the scatter btw did not work for me, since the addresses were wrong (i guess that scatter is for 512MB version, too).
so i built a scatter from scratch with notepad++ it's in the zip, too.
now i just wish there would be someone with a 256MB version able to make a backup with mtk droid and share with us.

[FIRMWARE][STOCK] DOOGEE NOVA Y100X | Android 5.0

It took me days trying to make Doogee send me these files. I managed to unbrick my device with this firmware.
So I decided to post it here so anyone can unbrick ther Y100X.
It must be used with SP Flash Tool, here is the link to the thread: Flash Tool
This is the firmware :laugh: (extract with 7zip): --files removed--
For me it worked with the Format All + Download option.
-The firmware is stock and provided by Doogee. I got nothing to do with the making of the files. I also do not get paid for providing these files. I just wanna help others. -

Link sharing is on now. Sorry for forgetting about this.

thanks for el firmware, now how to get the root ... xD. My smartphone is underway yet, cost me $ 70

Root can be achieved through kingroot. But it is an app I personally hate, so I used some KingRoot to SuperSU apps and they worked,so good luck!

Many thanks for the original Firmware :highfive:

I hope there will upgrade to 5.1 or a dream.

Hello
i got trouble with that Y100X, tried to root it with KingoRoot, then i want to replace Kinguser with SuperSu, after that it ended up in Bootloop (showing DooGee logo then reboots). SP Flash Tool won't start (also tried to find Phone with adb but it always reboot to fast and don't connect)
Any thing i can do?

Ask insertion of a cap according to the instructions of the threads about Flash Tool.

2 swing firmware from the link in the header of the topic and its extract 7zip archiver;
3 Turn off the phone, connect it to a computer, manually set VCOM driver from the archive with the tools, disconnect the phone;
4 launch Flash Tool, look for a file scatter in the folder where you unzipped firmware
5 remove the checkbox PRELOADER
6 click DOWNLOAD, connect the cable to the computer off the phone and wait for the flashing 100%
7 disconnect the phone from the computer, and run the long wait until the turn
8 all
I hope that helps

SP Flashtool don't find phone. All drivers installed. Phone goes in fastboot or stock revocery only.
I wish i could get adb shell :crying:
Is there any way to flash system partition in Fastboot or sideload?

Try to flash without the battery, rather than simply turned off the phone.

You my friend are a saviour.
Tried rooting and bricked my phone, Kingroot wouldn't work so tried the Kingo apk which bricked it.
Back to square one now so will wait for a verified root
Thanks :good::good::good::good::good::good::good:

Hi can with this repair an bootlop on the doogee nova y 100x .when i turnt off the phone ??
Sent from my Valencia2_Y100pro using XDA Free mobile app

Got my mother in law a doogee y100x. Apparently Google plus won't install on it. Did anyone face this? Is there a workaround?

Hi.
I had the bootloop problem, and I've solved with this firmware. (Many thanks TheSpecialNoob)
In order to FlashTool detects the phone, needs to be power off, without enter in FlashTool mode.
Select a scatter file, choose "Format All + Download" and press Download.
Thats all.

Custom recovery Doogee Nova Y100X
By the way, someone has managed to stick a custom recovery??? like the CWM or TWRP. If so, could you explain how you did, or upload the recovery.img file for the FlashTool?.
Thank you

It's a problem on all Y100X devices. Doogee must have messed something up in the build.prop I hope they release an official fix.

If someone is not able to install it , I can try to explain it.
Also I have kept all the necessary files.
Regards

greetings from Spain
Thanks for giving us the original ROM.
I followed your steps and selecting "Format All + Download" I deleted the imeis and as I have read on the internet, also the NVRAM.
As I can do to permanently leave imeis? every time I have restored the ROM to modify and not know if I deleted more things to do a "Format ALL"
Someone I can pass the "NVRAM.bin" to upload it to my phone? Any other suggestions?
[email protected]
Regards

Yeah, I have the same problem. After restoring the stock rom, I have lost NVRAM settings.
Someone who has not restored the phone to stock, can upload the file nva.bin phone.
Thank you

2.Download Odin latest version, unzip it and double click Odin3_v3.14.4 file .
3.then you'll get a notification probably, click ok. After that you'll get like this, after that take your soft bricked phone and click power button + volume up /down + home button then
your phone will look like this,
after that connect your device to the computer, on your computer you'll see this.
then click "AP" and select the unzipped firmware you downloaded and click enter.

Unfortunately it did not work with rooting, did it as described above.
After the reboot, the tablet hangs at the start screen and does not boot any further.
how can I undo this, because before the device ran without problems

Hello everyone. I need help here.
I have a Samsung SM-T561 & some months ago, I upgraded to version 7.1
Then a few days ago, I wanted to upgrade it to version 10.
That's where things got messed up!
1st. I didn't make a backup of what current ROM.
2nd. I completely forgot to enable USB debugging (again, despite It wasn't the first time I used custom ROM)
3rd. The problem must have been from the ROMS I installed. They didn't work. So I factory resetted EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING. INCLUDING THE SYSTEM.
So basically, I HAD TWRP. I HAD NO OS. I DIDNT TURN ON USB DEBUGGING MODE.
Then I understood that I didn't need ODIN anymore because I had TWRP.
So.
I downloaded the files to flash again. On SD card. And inputted it inside . So it still DIDNT WORK!!
Then I flashed in IMAGE form.
Then my TWRP DISAPPEARED.
IM ON CONSTANT BOOTLOOP.
THE ONLY THING I CAN ACCESS IS THE DOWNLOAD MODE.
AND I CAN NOT CONNECT WITH ODIN BECAUSE I HAVENT TURNED ON USB debugging...
Someone should kindly... please. Get back to me

[TOOL] MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)

You can use it to revive your op6, if you can boot in fastboot and have done the stuff with drivers (qualcomm)
MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)
May 2018 Android patches
https://mega.nz/#F!CfBG0IgZ!Gmnu6B-a7yFyvMLNw_pz8w
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=746163614322268729
Guide how to revive your op6:
First of all, you need to access to fastboot mode, if you can't , contact Oneplus support, then have a windows computer and download these file and drivers qualcomm ( https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347798730) and extract in one folder.
After you have all the file ready, plug in the phone to the computer, go in device manager and under port (COM) disinstall qualcomm one (oneplus 6) and then unplug.
Now you have to go in Windows test mode to not let him install default drivers, so:
windows key (on keyboard) + X, windows powershell (or normal prompt) administrator and write and enter: bcdedit /set testsigning on ( you will repeat the same process with "off" to stop the test mode after you will finish to do all the things).
Reboot the system and you could see in bottom right corner the test mode, now you are ready to install properly drivers.
Power off the phone, then hold for 5 seconds vol up and plug the usb to computer. Now you have to see US8_BULK as new device connected and you can also see in device manager; if you can't notice it, repeat the process until you see it (power on, power off, hold...) there is a full youtube guide for op5 and it's the same process (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpLvmID1wdI)
Right click con US8_BULK in device manager and update drivers by system files (go to the folder's drivers you had extracted before).
Now you should see qualcomm drivers under port (COM).
You are ready to let the tool to do all the stuff, so let plugged the phone, always powered off, right click on msmdownloadtool and execute as administrator.
You should see your device and click start to begin the process; if it gives you some error (like sahara or something else), unplug, power on, power off and the plug it again, now it should be fine.
And that's it, the tool will do all the work and, at the end, you will have like a brand new phone ready to a new setup.
EDIT: if you are stucked in bootloader, you have only to power off and continue with the part: ... hold for 5 seconds vol up... (it happened in page 4)
Please, consider to donate me something for the work and the risk (maybe idk). Thanks

If you have system access, there is no point to use this tool/guide I was able only to boot in fastboot

Test with 128 GB version about 10-15 minutes (with already installed drivers): OK
It runs like a new shipped OP6.

Lol oh yeah

Qualcomm tool is not for fastboot or recovery mode, but for qualcomm drivers mode (USB to serial port).
So if you can boot to recovery or fastboot, probably don't need this pack.

[Guide] Unbrick Your UNLOCKED Lenovo P2a42

Hey Friends,
You must have seen very good days with Lenovo P2 but when there comes a bad day when your phone stops responding to button holds and restarts. You may or may not have a clue what to do to get your phone working again just like before.
I got into this situation where only thing my phone was able to operate was a RED LED on connecting it to my laptop. Then I had to read tens of pages on XDA to find answers to all my questions. If you are in such a situation and your phone is UNLOCKED then you have come to the right place. Procedure is quite simple but remember, I am writing this guide to define complete process from blackout to complete update so follow this guide as per your needs.
I faced this situation of Total Blackout / Dead Phone (Almost) with only Red LED working and it can be very scary. So, here is the simplest procedure you can follow. I want to appreciate all those people who helped me in finding a way to boot my phone with each and everything working. Long story short, let's get this done.
Tools Required:
I am mentioning here all the Tools you will need. I will urge you to download and save these tools in case you want to unbrick your phone any time:
1. Minimal ADB and Fastboot setup for PC
2. Lenovo USB drivers v1.1.33
3. Qualcomm USB Drivers
4. Qualcomm Flash Image Loader (QFIL) v2.0.1.9 for your PC in case you have corrupted your phone's IMEI and/ or Baseband
5. Blankflash.bat in case you want to recover from total blackout (Attached)
6. Stock MM S048 Firmware for Lenovo P2 in case phone doesn't boot
7. S048_ModemTelephony.zip in case your phone boots through Stock MM S048 but SIM isn't detected and IMEI is missing. I have made a complete modem zip file for installation through recovery.
8. S251_ModemTelephony.zip in case your phone is on latest firmware and doesn't detect SIM and has lost IMEI. I have made a complete modem zip file for installation through recovery.
9. QCN file for recovering baseband version and giving you most precious network signals. (Attached)
10. WinRAR or PeaZip for uncompressing files
I will recommend you to have a specific folder for keeping all these tools in a single place.
Procedure for Unbricking:
Before going with the procedure, make sure you have downloaded all the files you need, updated Lenovo and Qualcomm drivers etc. Here is the procedure:
1. If total blackout with red LED notification when connecting to PC: Unzip blankflash.zip to a folder in C drive. Now connect your P2 to PC through USB, press volume+, volume- and power button simultaneously and double click blankflash.bat. You might have no success in your first try. Just keep trying and it will load your phone to Fastboot. Restart your phone in TWRP if installed and install a working ROM for your phone after doing a wipe. If all is good and phone works OK then great but if you have lost IMEI and baseband then it is better to reinstate your phone through first MM stock ROM S048
2. Install S048 firmware through Minimal ADB and Fastboot - use flash instructions in .txt file.
3. Wait for startup of phone. Check if fingerprint, BT, WIFI and SIM work if all work then OK.
4. If fingerprint, BT, WIFI and SIM are not working then check IMEI through dialer. Dial *#06#. If IMEI is not available then install latest TWRP through Fastboot.
5. Start P2 in TWRP recovery and install S048_ModemTelephony.zip. Restart phone to see if WIFI and SIM work.
6. If SIM is detected but not giving signals and Baseband is shown as unknown then extract 000000_0.qcn file given in .7z and restore through QFIL and restart your phone into Fastboot.
7. Now, install stock recovery of S048 firmware through Fastboot and restart your phone.
8. Use your phone like you normally do and update your P2 till firmware S251 and see if everything works including calls. Update your phone through OTA.
9. After OTA installation, stock recovery may say that update failed. Just press Back, go into Wipe user data menu and Wipe Cache only. Restart your phone which will be updated to latest version and will ask you to update to a newer version. Allow it to download the next update.
10. After installation of S251 update, install latest TWRP through Fastboot and install most recent version of LOS 16 so that your vendor partition is stable and free from any bloated files. Now, use your phone just like you want to.
If you need further clarification then ask in this thread.

You should download S048 and use flashall.bat inside that archive to install it all. However, if you lose IMEI or baseband then you can use modem and qcn files given in this thread.

If red light blinks, your phone can be detected by your laptop. Check ports in device manager settings and you'll see a new port with Qualcomm 9800 series number. If that's there, try blankflash to start in fastboot. It might need some tries before startup. Be patient and keep trying till you are in fastboot.

Press Volume+, Volume- and Power simultaneously and double click flashblank.bat. It might take some tries to finally install the scripts and start phone in fastboot. It took me 20+ tries to finally detect my phone through blankflash. Please, read OP completely.

No. Keep USB connected. Try blankflash. If it doesn't detect phone or go ahead. Close command terminal, double click again and keep doing it till it processes the files. If it is stuck somewhere. Close terminal and try again.

Check if your USB cable is alright and appropriate drivers are installed. Otherwise reinstall drivers, restart your PC and try again.

I think you might have damaged some hardware. But anyway if you want to use blankflash, I have a method.
In lenovo p2 we have another mode called QDloader mode, in which we can use blankflash. For entering into this mode, it's little tricky but, can enter in one or two go.
So, here's how:
1. Switch off the mobile.
2. Press the volume up key,
3. While holding the volume up key, insert the usb cable and at the same time press the power button (this is the trick, we have to insert and hit at the same time).
And voila! :highfive: you will see black screen with only red notification led blinking.
we are into QDloader mode. Now use blankflash :good:
