Phone Stuck in Bootloop - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
Recently I flashed a CWM file for 'Lava Iris X1' found on this site for my android 'Lava Iris X1 Grand'. Now my phone is stuck in a bootloop. For some reason i cant enter recovery mode even before my phone was stuck in a bootloop. I am not sure whether my phone has USB debugging enabled or not. I rooted my android with KingRoot before all this happened. I have downloaded your Minimal Adb and Fastboot but it cant find my device.
Overall problem:
1) Phone Stuck in Bootloop
2)USB debugging enabled ? Not sure
3) Can't enter recovery mode
4) ADB wont find my device
Note : When I used Minimal Adb and Fastboot, I typed 'fastboot devices' and some numbers appear:
0123456789ABCDEF devices
but when I used the command 'adb devices' my device is not shown:
List of devices attached
I have a backup at my phone through the Flashify app but since recovery mode cant show I cant recover it. I also need a some flash recovery images.
Please help me out here. I don't know what else to do.
Thank You in advance

Fixed
Nevermind guys, i was able to get my phone out of bootloop using SP Flash Tool.
Now all I have to do is restore IMEI.

bricked nvidia shield tablet k1? I need help please

This is my first thread so please help a newbie out.
I've met a terrible fate. I was not thinking and ended up clearing the system files in twrp. I tried to reboot into twrp through recovery mode but it just bootloops instead of launching twrp. I've tried to re flash twrp through adb on my computer but I don't know if I have the right drivers. There are no "!" symbols and I really don't know how to reinstall twrp so i can flash a stock android os. My bootloader is unlocked but when i type "adb devices" into "minimal adb and fastboot" it doesn't display the tablet.
I didnt had either <!> on my device but it was working..i messed up also in my first touch it dont worry.. if you type <fastboot devices> i think you will see your device if the drivers are ok..adb is for root mostly..
you need to download (and extract the stock rom with cygwin) and flash it with fastboot!

I reflashed the stock images with fastboot so now it's all good. I can't notice the difference in the battery drain compared to the marshmallow update. In other words the battery life is pretty poor. Any ideas for the battery?

Z3 Won't start or enter recovery

Guys,
I need help. I'm struggling for the last 3 days trying to revive my phone with no sucess. :crying::crying::crying:
I managed to put a custom rom sucessfully, but i had to make a restore on recovery mode.
During the restore process some error ocurred, something like "something not mounted", i did'nt have the ROM to flash anymore. For no reason i decied do reboot the phone.
Now i can't enter recovery anymore and the phone is froze on the "Sony Xperia" on the begginig.
Since start i'm having difficulty with the Z3 driver for Windows 10. To enter recovery mode i tryed to adb reboot recover but my adb doesn't work.
It's strange..
if i type fastboot devices it's show.
if i type adb devices it's show's "no emulators/xxx found".
I need help, don't know what to do anymore.
TLDR:
- Frozen at "Sony Xperia"
- Recovery don't enter pressing Volume Down/UP
- adb devices doesnt' work.
- fastboot devices work
Thank you!

You have some choices to restor stock rom:
1) Try Xperia compagnon fron Sony ==> Software repair (not shure about the label in english version)
2) Use flashtool (google for it) and a rom (*.ftf) of your choice.
When you are back to stock, then you can install a custom rom again

Hey,
Sounds like a corrupted system, not too sure what happened with the recovery though.
Try this out:
1. You need the phone driver and the fastboot & ADB driver. You can get the Sony phone drivers from the Xperia PC Companion. You can get fastboot & adb drivers almost anywhere, just google for them or scroll a bit through xda.
2. Unlock your bootloader if you haven't done so already here.
3. boot into fastboot mode by completely powering off the phone then holding "power+volume up" and waiting until a blue LED appears in the top left.
4. Find a custom recovery, rename it to recovery.img, navigate to the folder that contains it in CMD (i.e. cd C:\Users\USERNAME\Downloads\Android) and type "Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
5.You should now be able to boot into recovery again. All that's left is find a ROM of your liking, push it to the phone in ADB and install it.
Hope this helps!

Phone can't enter bootloader

Hello.
I have bricked my phone(I edited build.prop). Now it can only enter recovery mode. I can access the phone by using adb, but I can't get root access in shell(but my phone is rooted), it just says connection to ui timed out, so I can't replace build.prop. I wanted to flash custom recovery on my phone, but when I reboot in bootloader mode using adb, phone just stuck at the logo(and when I tried to reboot in fastboot mode, the same thing happened, but at this time logo just disappeared after some time). After trying to enter fastboot or bootloader adb don't see the device. I have installed all drivers, enabled usb debugging(just in case), Phone model is Micromax Canvas Elanza 2(or Micromax Canvas A121).
So, my questions are:
How can I get root access in adb shell?
How can I load my phone in bootloader/fastboot?
And is there any another way to unbrick this device?
P.S. Sorry for my English and thanks in advance.
from recovery mode there should be a option "reboot to bootlader" this will bring you in download mode. while in download mode install the drivers (these are different from adb devices) and make sure "fastboot devices" does recognize the phone. now you can boot into custom recovery without flashing it "fastboot boot recovery.img". once in custom recovery again install drivers and then check "adb devices" while in custom recovery. "adb shell" will give you root access while in custom recovery

need help flashing twrp on my samsung galaxy j3

basically this is my first time trying to flash a custom recovery and after a while of trying multiple methods, none worked
i have firstly install adb,unlocked the bootloader and enabled usb debbuging
the first approach was from xda site following the tutorial, the adb reboot bootloader command just normally restarted the phone and wouldnt put me into bootloader mode, then after manually going to bootloader mode i tried to flash the img with no luck at all and the phone wasnt showing up on adb devices aswell on bootloader mode
then i tried using odin and gave it the tar file but never completed the flashing so im kind of stuck not being able to flash twrp and root the phone aswell so id appreciate your help
thanks for your time
edit: after trying again today and looking at the log, whenever i use odin it will either stop at setupConnection or recovery.img, the phone is also a galaxy j3 SM320FN
check the drivers while in download mode. fastboot devices shows you the phone while in download mode, adb devices shows you the phone while in system mode. these are different drivers. from fastboot you can boot the recovery.img without flashing for testing purposes

Need to recover photos from phone - dead Galaxy S6

Hey guys, in a little bit of a dilemma.
My s6, for some reason, cannot pass the flashing "Samsung" logo when booting it up. I have not rooted this phone, nor have I installed a custom recovery or rom. This phone is stock as it gets.
And I need to recover the photos off the phone. Issue is, I thought it would be simple as going into recovery mode and doing adb pull/sdcard/DCIM/Camera or something like that.
BUT I do not have USB debugging enabled!!! Never even turned on developer settings.
I tried to get into bootloader and use fastboot, but fastboot devices shows up with nothing. adb commands do not work, except when I press "install update from ADB", then only the very basic ADB commands work such as adb reboot, adb sideload etc.
So I am not sure what to do from here. Fastboot is not working (I have installed the Samsung drivers from the official webpage, but I haven't restarted my computer so i will try that).
Please help me to recover these photos :crying::crying::crying:
Hi,
If Download mode is working, flash TWRP recovery with Odin.
Go to Mount, select Data partition > Enable MTP and access files from PC.
Recover your data, then flash fresh new ROM https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/guide-tutorial-howto-samsung-galaxy-s6-t4108425
