[Completed] Lenovo Brick after OTA Android 6 (Really need you help) - XDA Assist

Hello guys,
I am in a really difficult situation here and i really need your help,
I am the owner of a Lenovo Vibe shot Z90a40. This phone had initially a chinese rom so i flashed a s240 ROW rom without any problems and it was just fine. Yesterday i found that there was an android 6 update (OTA) so i choosed YES (bad choice). The rom was downloaded, installed and when the phone rebooted it turned of by itself.
I powered it on again, stays in initial screen for 1 sec then vibrates for 2-3 secs and it shutdowns again.
So i tried to flash the previous rom again FAIL
the internal storage says write protected so flash (with Miflash generate a write protect error), i cannot access adb because the phone doesn't boot, cant use the sdfuse method (update from internal storage) because i cannot write anything to internal memmory and when i try to update through sd at about 50% says update fail.
I have tried every rom availiable no luck. I can see the internal partitions on my pc but can't access them.
Basically the problem is the write protection on internal storage.
I would really apreciate any advice,
Thanks in advance

[Q] zte z5 red bull u9180 bricked pls help

I tried to install cwm at my friends zte to change the rom because he wanted playstore an i think i bricked it using some scripts i found that were made for the v9180 model .The phone now has black screen when i power it and nothing happens. I cant enter bootloader or fastboot so i think i have hardbricked it. Only when i put the battery while i have it connected to mypc it shows 12 partitions and windows asks to format them to open except two of them that have files. the one partition has a folder called image with 55 mb size and the other is the internal storage. if someone can help me i would be grateful because i already spend 12 hours searching to restore this awful device because i never say no when someone asks me to help him. Any help would be appreciated.

[Completed] Urgent Help with Micromax A106 running lollipop

So I own a micromax a106 which used to run on a kitkat 4.4.2 (i had root acces and custom memory allocation no roms though) just this morning I recieved the update from Micromax after installing the update my phone booted fine and was running on lollipop, but I noticed that my internal storage had been reduced from 7.42 Gb to 5.41 mb out of which only 2.21 mb was available for use. So i thought about reallocating the patition I opened SPtools I backed up my phone loaded my custom EBR files, downloaded and inserted my phone after removal of battery. But it didnt detect so I thought i'd switch it on and shut it again. I tried to turn it on but it was stuck on the logo screen. I went to recovery cleared all cache and did a factory reset but now the damn phone doesnt even switch on, i cant access recovery nor turn it on even. if i connect it to my pc it makes the detetion sound then it makes the 'usb removed sound' and it goes on like a loop. please help me
I had done memory repartition and root access when i was on kitkat but now it;s messed up on lollipop. Please help me to get it running.

[Completed] Micromax a37 nothing appears by pressing any button but it is detected by computer.

I am using micromax a37 bolt and it has only 107MB internal so I rooted it and used Link2sd app for putting every app into sd card and I did it but after doing that I ran into some problem with all apps suddenly stopped and I will end up factory resetting every time. This time I used mounts2sd and I created the startup script and init.d. When I rebooted for mounting the sd card second partition, it booted for more than 10 minutes so I factory resetted it. But after resetting also when I tried to boot, it boots for a long time. So I thought of flashing the stock ROM and I used it with sp flash tool but I get an error S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032). Now the phone does not show up anything when I pressed the power button or any combination but when I connect it to my computer it is detected and the sp tool gives same error. During the flash I first tried with a37 stock ROM but second time I wrongly downloaded a37b stock ROM from another site but I got the same error in both cases. I tried different sp flash tool versions. Here is the google drive link to logs folder

I am making this thread so that any one who are in a similar problem can get solution from someone who gets it. Thank you

Hello
I have an android device brand imobile model iq 6.6 when i purchased it and used it for about an hour it started misbehaving by opening apps automatically like browser, wifi,data. i tried to root this device to remove such annoying built in apps and after removing two to three apps i was using fb and device suddenly switched off i tried to turn on but it couldn't turn on it stucks on boot logo and restarts again and again.
I downloaded official rom both in sd update and through cable but i m not succeeded to install. When i try to install through sd card update it starts installation but after some times it gives som error and installation is aborted.
I also tried to install through smart phone upgrade tool but no success when i press volume up and down buttons and connect it to pc it restarts again and again so the process couldn't be started.

(Solved)Lenovo A5500-H unsuccessful update, stuck on Android System Recovery

Hello,
I hope it is the right place to ask for help .... The automatic system update failed and now the tablet is stuck at Android System Recovery Screen. Wipe Data / factory reset does not bring the system back, so I guess I need to upload rom / update from sd card - I got option "apply update from sd card".
So, please, help me to recover from this situation as my tablet is stuck .... I do not have or could not find the right files to use with "apply update from sd card."
Or, any links to the tutorial for updating / uploading rom for this model will help ...
Thank You very much in advance.
Kindest Regards
Lukasz
I solved the problem by uploading the rom again.
1) SPF Tool + MTEK drivers for win
2) Official ROM
Just two things:
a) if SPF throws error you need to choose upgrade firmare not download
b) you need to take off the back cover and unattach the battery otherwise it will not work
Have a nice day
Lukasz
Hi !
Thanks for confirming that you solved your problem !
I will now move your thread to the dedicated section .
Cheers
Hi everyone. Just did the solution like what Luqpa_W said but my tablet is still bootlooping on lenovo screen. There is no problem during flashing and everything seems fine during flashing. I do not really understand what is the problem with my tablet. If someone knows how to deal with it, please let me know.
_____
EDITED: My tablet just got booted! After several times of reboot, it seems working. Thanks!
