My Yuphoria is bricked but I have a twrp backup. The problem is it doesnt go into recovery mode with hardware keys. For previously going to recovery mode I used rashr.apk but stuck on bootloop. So what to restore backup but cant boot to recovery..someone help??
Try these steps
Extract the flashtools zip in a new folder on the desktop.
Extract the factory firmware zip in the same folder and make sure that all of the flashtools files are also present.
Now, power off your phone. If you are stuck in a bootloop, then pull out the battery and reinsert it. (Do not switch on the phone.)
While pressing the Volume Up key, connect your phone to the PC with the help of a USB cable.
You should now see the fastboot logo on your device. If you did, leave the Volume Up key. (If you do not see the logo, retry the process.)
Now go to the folder where you extracted the flash tools and factory firmware and run the flash-all.bat by double clicking on it.
A command window will open and the flashing procedure will start. (Make sure that your device does not disconnect from your PC during the procedure.)
The command window will automatically close once the procedure is completed.
Disconnect your device and boot it up by pressing the Power button. (Since this is first boot after flashing the firmware, it may take upto 5 minutes.)

Hi I have the following problem: after I flash Cannibal open touch recovery I could not flash any .zip file so I decided that I go back to CWM touch so I restarted my phone. Phone booted into fastboot mode with the following message no boot or recovery IMG so I decided to flash recovery with fastboot. I opened the folder with fastboot command flash_recovery connect the phone to usb but the command line always showed waiting for device. I unplugged the phone and tried to press the volume keys but nothing happened as if it freezes. I pulled the battery and try it again but no response. I cant connect phone to odin because it has broken power button and after I insert the battery it always turn on itself. Please advise me what to do thank you.
Seems your drivers have gone corrupt. Try a different system and use Nexus Root Toolkit.
I tried this option but without success. Phone does not respond to anything. No volume up or volume down. It´s just stucked on bootloader.
This link says that if you get <waiting for device> , then fastboot is not configured properly. Check out the link over here.
You may also try this command "fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-crespo.img" to boot into recovery without installing it.
no hope
The reason you cannot navigate in fastboot/bootloader is that your powerswitch is probably stuck in the "on position"...does your device immediately power on when battery is inserted?
The way i solved this a few months ago was to completly remove my powerswitch from the board power my device on..use quickboot to enter fastboot menu and input commands...
Also completely removing your power button makes powering on your nexus alot more complicated.
what i did was go to download mode (holding vol+ and -) and pluging phone in..this takes you to download mode
then you need to get a copy of a boatloader file to flash via odin which will reset your phone and power it on...pm me if interested i can provide you with files necessary
My problem:
I had a temporary CWM installed on my Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML 4gb/32GB and without thinking, installed an OTA update form 2.20.40.63 to 2.20.40.90.
My phone booted to the Asus logo with the loading circle and got no further.
Sadly I did not have USB debugging enabled at the time so I cant detect it in ADB in recovery mode to sideload.
I have tried to copy firmware to my Micro sd and load from there but my phone has never recognised or mounted SD cards so that is out of the question.
As a last resort I tried flashing the Boot.img, Recovery.img, droidboot.img and system.img, now it wont even get to the asus logo without coming up with and android logo with a red triangle above it, the same logo that comes up when I now try to enter recovery mode.
I have recorded a video of the process I followed to flash the zfone, but cant post it here as this is my first post, but I think I can send it to someone through messages
What am I doing wrong and how do I get my phone back?
Any help would be hugely appreciated, and keep in mind Im a bit of a noob so set by step instructions would be awesome, Thanks guys
Update: the original .img files i used were apparently already rooted, so I am now extracting the 2.20.40.90 firmware from the official Asus site and I will try to flash with those.
but I cant find the system.img inside the UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.90-user.zip and was wondering, do I need to take out the Boot.img. droidboot.img and recovery.img then turn all the existing files into a system.img?

Ahh thank you, sorry I didnt really know where to post the question
Fixed my phone!!
Ok guys, so I figured out what I was doing wrong.
I preformed the flash correctly with pre-rooted system.img, but I didnt wipe the cache, as soon as I did, my phone booted to a normal rooted device!!
If you want to do this yourself, download pre rooted versins of these files (easy to find with a quick google search)
Recovery.img
Boot.img
Droidboot.img
System.img
ADB tethered launcher (not needed if your phone can enter recovery mode)
and place them all in a new folder (lets call it zenUnbrick)
Boot your zenfone 2 into fast boot mode, then connect it to your pc
(Hold volume up button and power button, when your phone vibrates let go of the power button and continue to hold the volume + button until you see the fastboot screen)
Now hold down shift + right click inside the zenunbrick folder and select 'open command window here'
When that opens, run these commands in this order. Wait till each one finishes and be aware that the (fastboot flash system system.img) command takes quite a while to work its magic, so be patient and dont turn off your phone
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot
when your phone reboots, it will most likely still seem bricked, but do not despair!! this is where you open up the ADB tethered launcher, although if your phone can enter recovery mode then you dont need this program
Option 1 - If your phone can enter recovery mode
Boot your phone into fastboot mode
use volume up and down to select recovery mode and use power button to select
wait for your phone to reboot
when you see the broken android symbol, press volume up button and power button simultaneously
select wipe cache and wait (it takes a while)
select reboot now
Your phone is now unbricked and rooted!!
Option 2 - If your phone cant enter recovery mode
Boot your phone into fastboot mode and connect it to your pc
open ADB tethered launcher
type 'ACCEPT'
when it loads type 'T4'
wait for your phone to reboot
select wipe cache and wait (it takes a while)
Select reboot now
Your phone is now unbricked and rooted!!
Hi Guys,
1. I have upgraded my phone to OTA-EMUI 4.0_H60-L02-L12_6.2.1_6.3.1 which runs properly.
2. Afterwards, I wanted to root this phone again, which doesn't work neither with multi-tool nor TRWM.
3. After reboot the phone was going into animated Honor logo, but nothing more.
4. I tried to reinstall the original firmware using adb shell and dd. Same situation
Unluckily the phone doesn't boot normally after the reboot.
5. Pressing the power button for a while lets the phone vibrate ones and appear logo but nothing else happens.
Pressing 3 buttons lets the phone come up with the honor-logo, but nothing more.
Pressing power + vol- and connected usb cable lets the phone come up with fastboot.
When the phone is in fastboot mode my computer recognizes it as "Android Phone - Android Sooner Single ADB Interface",
but ADB doesn't show any devices. Fastboot works fine and is Unlocked. Hisuite doesn`t recognize device...search drivers but
nothing happens.
6. Unbricking the phone using fastboot (flash boot, cust, recovery and system) doesn't change anything.
Flashing the stock recovery, using a sd-card with dload folder and firmware and booting the phone with any button
combination doesn't change anything (no installer, no recovery). Flashing CWM and booting the phone with any button
combination doesn't change anything (no recovery). ADB doesn't show a device at any other point of booting.
7. Now the accu from my phone is empty and I can't charge it again, neither with USB-cable plugged to Computer nor with
standard cable plugged into a switch. I need help before playing tennis with this phoe!! :crying:
Any idea or solution how to fix all my problem?

from OTA-EMUI 4.0_H60-L02-L12_6.2.1_6.3.1
Afterwards the phone began to charge again.
I copied the update.app from H60_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_6.1.1 to the folder DLOAD, inserted the SD -Card,
disconnected the USB cable from your PC, pressed 3btn till the Honor logo appears
continued to press 3btn for 8 -10 seconds and the recovery process began.
Thank a lot to panamera2011
Thanks Sam Cro!
I think your answer is underrated.
Most of my bricks on the Honor 6 (H60-L12) could be restored thanks to your help!
I have a Koodo LG P500H. I am having a very hard time installing TWRP.
Firstly Play store doesn't work. It has this old thing called "Market" that has some apps, but not all. Market eventually gets updated to Playstore, but I can't even find TWRP manager. There was another app in the Playstore that I tried called ROM Manager. It said it installed TWRP for me. I restarted the phone, and nothing happened.
Restarting and Holding power/volume down/home will show a picture that seems to be some sort of recovery mode. But it only run for 1-2 seconds before the phone restarts itself. Nothing happens.
I tried to use ADB. But after rebooting the device it just restarted without ever going into recovery mode. So the flash command just get stuck at "Waiting for Device." Does this phone even have a recovery mode?
This phone doesn't support Odin.
I am used to using TWRP. Without it I cannot flash the phone into new OS.
And every single time I fail, the whole phone seems to have reformatted. So I have to enter in my wifi password and gmail again. All of that typing on a very small keyboard takes a lot of time. I had spent hours on this phone without getting TWRP working.
Please help.

The problem is when I reboot into fastboot (adb reboot bootloader), the phone will go into "phone off battery charging mode". It never actually goes into the bootloader.
Ok I did the following and it seems fastboot and TWRP works now. Be sure to enable USB Debugging on your P500.
1) Fastboot tutorial (I did everything here. I hit "ok" on the LGMDP 1.5 tool as needed. Do not wait till the countdown timer goes to zero.)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15122833&postcount=100)?
FastBoot Tutorial
1. Please download this (or from here) file and unzip it in to any folder.
2. Start LGMDP 1.5 tool with the phone connected (you need to have USB drivers installed) and click on Select Port
3. A separate window should appear like the one below
Just click connect
4. Another window will take shape (LGE Mobile security) with lots of options (links)
Click on the first upper right Browse and select the folder in with you have unzipped the files. You will get some errors that some image, table or headers are missing. Just click OK and in the end everything that should remain selected is Partition Table, APPSBL Image Header and APPSBL Image.
Now just close the window (click on x)
5. Now you are back on the main window and here you'll have to click on Download
6. You are almost done and from now on everything should go on automatically.
NV Backup
Autorestart in Emergency\Download mode and upgrade the files (you selected on step 4)
NV Restore (the last step) Do not disconnect the USB cable until the restore is done
Wait for the phone to restart in normal mode (your current rom).
That should be everything you need to do to get fastboot enabled.

2) Install PdaNet+ (This was the only thing I did in this tutorial. It fixed the usb driver and the fastboot can then communicate with my PC.)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350733
http://pdanet.co/a/
(Note: On top of Partition Table, APPSBL Image Header and APPSBL Image in step 4, I also selected the TWRP image file as my RECOVERY image. Not sure if this make a difference. )
(Note 2: I think you can also get the LG drivers here.)
3) Restart, hold down power + home to boot to the fastboot. Or in ADB type adb reboot bootloader.
4) Open ADB (while phone is still in fastboot mode) and type fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (after downloading the TWRP image, renaming it and moving it to my ADB root folder. I am using TWRP 2.8.0.1 here.)
5) Type fastboot reboot
6) After the phone restarts, type adb reboot recovery. TWRP runs for me. Power+Home+Volume Down (3 button combo) also works now. (Previously this would reset the phone.)
Hey Man, im glad it worked. I could use your help.
I bricked my phone and need the restore file, Do you think you could make a backup from TWRP and upload it?
I would be super grateful.
Thank you.
Here is a zip with CM11, twrp 3.0.2.0 and Gapps for CM11.
Its the best rom I found.

Hi. What is your "brick" like? Does your TWRP still run? If yes you can just copy a custom OS into your Microsd card and install it from your Microsd.
You can also use ADB push to move files from your PC to the phone.

If you TWRP doesn't run, you need to install that first. Do steps 3 and 4 in the above post to boot into bootloader and install TWRP.
3) Restart, hold down power + home to boot to the fastboot. Or in ADB type adb reboot bootloader.
4) Open ADB (while phone is still in fastboot mode) and type fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (after downloading the TWRP image, renaming it and moving it to my ADB root folder. I am using TWRP 2.8.0.1 here.)
Okay, so I had been out of the flashing game for a while now, and recently got a Pixel 128Gb after using my trusty Nexus 6P, and I attempted to do Fastboot boot-to-root.img, which now has me stuck in a weird bootloop issue.
It boots, gives me the stupid can't be checked for corruption ****, gets to the white Google Screen, then there is a weird visual glitch, a blue line appears near the bottom of the screen, then the phone immediately reboots and does it all over again after doing a ramdump.
I can't even get into recovery to manually flash the stock image, as soon as I try to select RECOVERY it jumps to the boot screen where it tells me again that it cant be checked for corruption, and then starts the bootloop all over again.
ADB cant recognize it for whatever reason either. So now I'm probably not your average ****ed, I'm advanced ****ed.
Any body have any ideas?
boot-to-root is for Android O, you have to follow this guide
I had this same exact problem and I was able to fix it by reflashing the factory image. You said adb cannot recognize your device. But what about fastboot? If you reboot into the bootloader, connect to your PC, and execute "fastboot devices", does your device show? Download the latest factory image here. Extract it and execute flash-all.bat. Let me know if this helps.
You don't understand. When you attempt to reboot and go into recovery the manual way, the moment you select Recovery, the phone reboots and attempts to boot up, fails, performs write to ext4 ramdump, then loops over and over. ADB won't work because it wiped with the fastboot oem unlock which wiped the device, meaning no developer mode, which means no usb debugging.
Doesn't matter. Google is sending me a new one.

Fastboot and recovery are two different things. If you hold volume down + power it'll show you the bootloader screen (fastboot), this is where you'd usually select recovery. But if you stay on that screen, you can flash images to your phone. To fix your bootloop, download the boot.img from the stock ROM and use these commands in fastboot:
fastboot flash --slot _a boot boot.img
fastboot flash --slot _b boot boot.img
Then reboot normally.
falsh factory image inside the bootloader, don't need to go to recovery.
Step by Step
Thanks to previous experience with hacking devices (Android, Sony, etc.), patience and only allowing myself to freak out for a few seconds. A couple Google searches lead me to reflashing my Google Pixel 128GB and not sending it back to OEM.
So for the less patient I will break down the steps to do stop the bootlooping.
DON'T PANIC
Either hold down power until your phone turns completely off or wait for the bootlooping to do it for you. It usually only loops a few times before powering down.
Hold Power + Volume Down until it boots into the Fastboot mode.
[This is the screen that says you Phone Stats (serial #, cpu, ram, etc.) and has an Android picture on it laying down.]
Connect your Phone to your computer using a USB 3.0 port.
[My PC wouldn't recognize my phone at all when connected to USB 2.0]
Download from Full Factory Image from Google. { https://developers.google.com/android/images }
[Mine was "7.1.2 (N2G47O, May 2017)" for my Project Fi 128GB Pixel, but make sure you get the one for your phone]
Navigate to where your SDK/Fastboot folder is on your PC
[Unless you moved it, it is usually "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk" by default.]
Unzip the Contents of your Full Factory Image zip file to this location in it's own directory (for cleanliness).
Open a Command Prompt with a Right-Click "Run as Administrator" and navigate you your new zip file's directory.
["\platform-tools\sailfish-n2g47o" or whatever version of the Full Factory Image you used was.]
Type in "flash-all.bat" and wait for your phone to finish its installation. Your phone will restart itself into Fastboot Mode many times during this process.
Once it is finished, you phone should boot into its normal "First Boot Sequence" like you just started it up for the very first time.
At this point you can try flashing something else or use a different technique to update your recovery mode or ROM.
Good Luck.
