Hey,I dont know how to put it...
But I had somehow managed to mess the partition of my device when i was trying to restore a backed up rom (probably faulty one).
> it is stuck on lenovo logo.
> i can go to fastboot but cant flash cache or system as fastboot get stuck on erasing...
G:\T2-A7-10F_USR_S041_150112_ROW\Target_bin>fastboot flash cache cache.img
erasing 'cache'...
> and if i try to reflash other recovery it says cant parttiion doesnt support flash
G:\T2-A7-10F_USR_S041_150112_ROW\Target_bin>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4514 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.141s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:
partition 'recovery' not support flash)
finished. total time: 0.156s
It has a custom (buggy) philz recovery flashed, from a ****ty blog as it was the only one available.
I am unable to mount external sdcard too.
also i've tried sp flash tool
but it doesnt detect the device
when i load the scatter file and press download and then when i connect the tab in power off condition it just hangs for sometime and then does nothing.
I want to flash the files back so I can get it in working conditions.
thank you

Hello,
I'm trying to install 4.4.2 Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2607249 by arrrghhh.
when I try to install twrp I get the following error:

I tried installing goomanager and install twrp from there, but it didn't seem to work.
Please advice how to get the twrp to install correctly so I can flash the rom.

Why are you trying to install TWRP for the hammerhead (Nexus5)[email protected]??
That could cause SERIOUS damage. Please install a recovery for your device.
If you want to use GooManager, you need to be rooted. Regardless, you need to have your bootloader unlocked to install any custom recovery.
didn't find one
Wow,
I must have miss downloaded it, browsing threads...
Can you give a link to one that is for photon Q ?
The bootloader is unlocked, but I couldn't install superSU yet.
To be honest I'm kinda lost reading all those different threads.
At the same time I want to try your 4.4.2 )

What's your issue?
The thread you are jacking, the OP originally tried flashing a recovery for the hammerhead (n5).
Is that your problem to? If so, just use a recovery posted in the Photon Q section. It'll work much better.
I try to change my Rom fo my HOX+ but it stuck on the white screen with HTC logo...
I Press volume Down+Power in order to access the recovery menu (CWM) and the only think i got its an HTC logo and then bakc to Fastboot menu... Even with the Factory reset Option i go back to Fastboot menu.... W/e I use my pc to change the recovery menu (teamwin i think) to install my old ROM,but i get this error
Code:
E: Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(status 7)
*Verifuing filesystems...
*Verifying partitioon sizes...

Then i try to install CWM from my PC again hoping that will work but i get this error while the fast boot

Please help me as quick as possible, I deleted the OS (Operating System) by mistake, because after I tried flashing xposed framework my phone was in a bootloop, I was trying to fix that and ended up deleting everything (really dumb of me) I'm worried because I really need my phone and I'm uncappable of getting a new one, so I tried to extract UPDATE.APP with the Huawei Extractor. After extracting SYSTEM.img RECOVERY.img USERDATE.img CUST.img and BOOT.img, I tried flashing those with fastboot, thing is all of those successfully get flashed except for BOOT.img it always fails, the message that shows up is
"C:\Users\Jonathan\Downloads\fastboot>fastboot flash boot BOOT.img

Hello,
Edit: Don't know how or why, but after a couple of more tries I was able to boot the recovery directly and flash the rom. So everything is working fine right now. Admin/mod, would you like to close this thread? Thank you
For some reason I wanted to flash a new rom on my XT1039. In the process I screwed up and got it softbricked. I already had a look at the thread started by alfread56 and although the situation seems quite similar, the offered solutions didn't work out for me.
Right now my phone doens't have any rom installed. Flashing twrp with fastboot suggest everything works allright (using a linux system by the way):
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(bootloader) has-slot:recovery: not found
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (8314 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.295s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.303s]
finished. total time: 0.598s
After the reboot and holding the buttons for recovery mode I still get the stock recovery screen. When I select recovery in this menu, the phone shuts down. Because I know holding the recovery buttons on reboot takes some timing, I have redone the procedure of flashing twrp and holding the buttons numerous times. But it never went to the twrp recovery.
Then I tried to boot the twrp image directly with
$ fastboot boot recovery.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.290s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.230s]
finished. total time: 0.520s
Here I made a mistake: I have also flashed the boot partition with the twrp image with fastboot flash boot recovery.img (don't know how much of problem this is).
Booting up the TWRP image works fine. Then I've wiped dalvik, cache, data, internal storage and after several runs also deleted system by accident, and factory reset. When trying to flash the lineage zip everything works out fine for about 1 second, then the screen flashes en the phone is back in the TWRP screen. Too quick for me to see what the output is, but I do see there are not red marked lines (no errors)
I have tried it with several different ROMS (al checked), with several versions of TWRP and with fastboot and mfastboot. Does anybody know a solution on how to get twrp recovery working on my phone, or why I can't flash a rom when I boot twrp directly? Any help is appreciated!
Thank you in advance.

Well guys, I think I did it. I think I really did brick my Honor 8.
Phone details: New Honor 8, Model is FRD-AL10.
It came with the Chinese ROM, locked. What I did was to unlock it with DC unlocker, flash TWRP as custom recovery and root it.
Later, I had some problems with installing Open Gapps so I decided that I will flash a custom ROM unto it. What I chose was this RROS. I followed all of the instructions, made sure my EMUI was up to date, deleted all of my fingerprints (although I did not disable the PIN lock). I performed a factory reset using TWRP, flashed RROS and started facing errors.
Trying to power up the phone I found out it was going into bootloop, not able to start up. Only recovery available was not TWRP, but the default Huawei eRecovery, that lets you restore the phone using the Wi-Fi to download the needed files. Panicking for my new phone, I tried to restore my phone this way, only when it completed the download it failed restoring.
I have tried to unbrick my phone using the Honor 8 Multi-Tool: flashing BOOT.img, CUST.img, Recovery, USERDATA.img and SYSTEM.img. The firmware I downloaded and extracted UPDATE.app from is this: FRD-AL10_C00B135_Firmware_China_Nonspecific_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_05013LBP.zip.
The Multi-Tool's log is this:
Code:
12:51:55: All images are found, everything is ready for the unbricking process.
12:52:01: Unbricking started. Your computer may freezes during the process.

As you see, SYSTEM.img cannot be written for some reason, and CUST.img is for some reason the wrong file.
I also tried to flash UPDATE.app using a microSD card and the Volume up+Volume down+Power combination, but it fails after 5%, Saying:
Code:
Software install failed!
Incompatibility with current version.
Please download the correct update package.
So either my phone is completely dead, or I am missing something here.
Can anyone help me restore my phone to normal function?
you need to find the rollback package, you had android 7 but you're trying to flash android 6
