Hi all. So my stock opo somehow got bricked overnight while charging. It's completely stock and I have no idea why.
Status of my problem:
-Stuck on Android boot screen.
-Able to access fastboot.
-Can't access recovery mode
-No TRWP
-it's still locked
-Tried unlocking with fastboot oem unlock cmd / toolbox but it just reboots back to android stuck screen after its done but its still locked after checking with fastboot oem device-info cmd.
*USB debugging not enabled (cant enable it cuz i cant go in my phone duh)
-Cm11 33r I think...
-Installed android adb on device manager
But couldn't detect it on the list ("adb devices" cmd)
-Able to detect serial using fastboot device cmd tho.
-Tried universal adp, adb bootloader driver, Samsung adb driver, composite driver and it still won't detect it on list.
-Tried using another usb port.
-computer doesn't detect phone unless I go on fastboot or hold power+up volume for 10 sec (this shows QHUSB_BULK)
-Tried using msm9874downloadtool.exe with cm 11, doesn't do anything even tho it's completed and it's green.
-Tried using msm9874downloadtool.exe with color os but it doesnt work as well, in fact, it made my screen have multiple grey lines vertically across my screen and no fastboot display or android display.
-Tried just flashing Cm11 33r images but it won't work cuz I'm locked.
-Tried unlocking but goes back to my other problem of device not being on the list and not having usb debugging enabled.
Tldr;
Phone stuck on Android boot screen
USB debugging not enabled
Phone is not unlocked so I can't flash anything
Thanks for your time and effort. I really need help.
I still need help guys plzzz. Thankss
Have you tried getting into download mode? I think you power it off. Connect to USB and hold vol down? Or vol down + power. Something like that. Once in DL mode, flash it. There's a tutorial somewhere.

download mode? you mean fast boot? power + down doesnt load anything. Power + up goes into fastboot mode.
And i cant flash anything because you have to unlock the phone first. But mine is not unlocked. And i cant unlock it with fastboot oem unlock cmd because all it does it reboots my phone. Yes i checked if im unlocked after that with fastboot oem device-info.
First try to go to recovery by pressing volume down+ power button at the same time and then clear data and factory reset. This will wipe out ur data on phone but u can revive ur device by flashing stock rom using flashing tolls available... Check youtube videos for flashing tools.
Once you clear the data and factory reset from recovery mlde then ur device will be at the state where there is no OS in it n just a stock kernel. Give it a try and let me know
I can't get into recovery. Power + down only stays at android boot screen.
Have the exact same issue. Did you find a fix???
Even if your bootloader is not unlocked you can flash stock rom. Use oneplus one flashtool and flash cm11s. There are plenty of videos available on net for these problem, just go through them or try the hard bricked video to solve your problem. I hope it helps you. I lost my one device because of a silly mistake so i know the pain.
I've tried flashing stock rom. Cm11 33r. But it keeps telling me I'm locked.
put it on fastboot mode, download the stock rom from this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
Choose carefully between 16gb or 64
unzip the file and click on the flashall.bat or something like that , it's a script and it will flash everything
and you should be good
you will loose all your data, i don't know if you dont flash userdata and you remove it from the file and remove it's line from the script, maybe you wont loose your data, but try it
if you want i can help you through teamviewer

a buddy of mine bought a nexus s off of craigslist that is constantly force closing when you boot it. it will force close everything then reboot itself. im attempting to unlock the bootloader but adb devices doesnt show the serial number like it does for my nexus s. when i hold down volume up+down and plug in the usb it goes to the unlock bootloader screen but it doesnt give you the option of yes or no. iv posted a picture to show what it looks like. i cant get the phone into download to try to fix it with odin either. any help would be appreciated.
edit: i finally got my pc to recognize it and we now have an unlocked bootloader, but now iv encountered another problem. i downloaded a recovery image and moved it to the tools folder of sdk when i type in the fastboot flash recovery command it responds with error: cannot load recovery.img.
To unlock bootloader, you have to use fastboot, not adb. So the correct command would be fastboot devices
To boot into the bootloader, you have to press volume up + power, not volume up+down and plug in the usb -- that would bring you into the Download Mode instead

i know, i used adb devices to see if my computer would even recognize the phone. i i can get into fastboot mode by pressing volume up and power but cant send a fastboot command to the phone because it doesnt recognize the phone. when i hold down volume up and down to get into download mode it sends me to the screen i showed in the pic. its the unlock bootloader screen except there is no option to click yes to unlock the bootloader. i would love to get into download mode and use odin hence why i pressed vol up and down and plugged in usb, but like i said it sends me to the unlock bootloader screen.

Before you try to unlock the bootloader I would flash the latest stock rom and see if it boots properly.

Try one of these recovery images:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988686
The full command is
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(make sure your recovery image file is actually named recovery.img)
If 'fastboot devices' returns your phone's id you can flash a custom recovery. Otherwise get a full _signed_ stock rom and flash from stock recovery.
Did you install all drivers? Deinstall existing and use either pdanet or sdk build in program to get them. You need like 3 different ones.
Try locking unlocking bootloader again.
There's always the chance you got a defective usb connector.

Hi all,
Been given a Nexus S i9023 by my brother who has been "tampering" with it and now it seems a bit messed up.
When booting up - it gets stuck on the "Google" screen with a padlock on it... I can get into fastboot and I can flash recovery but when I attempt to load any recovery - I get that same Google screen with the padlock! I've downloaded a stock rom and even flashed system etc via fastboot but that still gets me nowhere past the damn padlock!!
I've tried to "fastboot boot recovery.img" and I still get the Google screen with the padlock but it says "Fastboot status - OK" on the bottom left.
I've searched and searched but everyone just seems to give tips on how to flash recovery. I know how to flash recovery; it just seem to be going into it though! Could the internal memory be screwed?
Thanks for any advice!
Sounds strange for sure. You try from within the OS? Enable USB debugging and adb reboot recovery.
Doubt it will work but its worth a shot

The phone stops at Google with the padlock on boot! Can't even get into the OS. Going to try to unbrick it and Odin but left my ubuntu laptop at my parents and can't be bothered to go get it... couldn't get it to work booting off cd rom. Kept giving me the "SBL Injection Failure Failed to find device" error booting ubuntu on a CD!
You may have a storage issue.
I seen you tried to flash system and boot recovery with fastboot ( which should have booted) but did you try to flash them all and wipe. The command is fastboot -w update file name.
I think Odin is a windows only tool anyways by the way.

No idea why I said Odin - I meant the unbrickable recovery thing.
I tried Odin with a Jig last night; got it into download mode and flashed with odin. Got the same result.
fastboot -w also gives the same issue...
If I have a storage issue - is there any way I can tell?
Basically you can tell by the issues you're having. Doing all the proper stuff to flash images etc and still having a booting/working device.
As far as a actual diagnostic tool I don't know of one. But it sure sounds like a hw issue to me.
I have the following problem: since a few weeks I'm unable to enter recovery.
This is what I do:
- shut down my phone
- press the power button while holding the volume up
- than I get a screen where I can choose from 4 options using the volume controls and selecting an option with the power button
- I select 'Recovery' and press the power button
- I get the usual black screen with Google logo and padlock
- but instead of getting into my recovery, I get a black screen with a Droid lying down, the 'chest' opened and some kind of small warning triangle above it..somebody who knows what I have to do??
Thanks in advance

Flash custom recovery.img part
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/fastboot#Flash_Custom_Recovery.img
You need ADB (and ADB drivers installed, strongly recommend PDANet Android Drivers) and fastboot executable.
Custom recovery I suggest you use Clockworkmod Recovery.
I imagine your phone is already unlocked?

When u boot on the Google screen on the bottom centre does it have a padlock? If so then it is unlocked.
You are entering recovery. Stock recovery
If you want a custom one either flash with fastboot or if you're rooted with a app. Goo manager. Rom manager etc.
Keep it mind that if you're on a stock ROM the custom recovery gets overwritten back to stock when the phone boots up the os

In installed the drivers and I installed the fastboot executable, but what do I have to do next? If I run the fastboot.exe, it just quickly shows a CMD-window and then disappears.
Edit:
I just discovered that, when I'm at the bootloader (I think it's called that way, the screen where you can select recovery), and I choose to reboot, I get the same 'error' as when I try to enter recovery.
Edit:
Alright, I was able to flash a new recovery, using cmd, but now when I try to enter my recovery, the phone gets stuck at a black screen with Google logo and padlock...
I have same problem as wolverine_2k who made the post. My nexus, can't start, I tried reboot and recovery but didn't work. After reboot or recovery I see Google logo, than Nexus screen and that is it. It didn't move to home screen and it stay with lighting screen all the time till I remove the battery. I can't power off it and don't know what to do. I can't transfer data with my PC (it don't recognize the device - only notice that "unknown device" is connected). Please any ideas?
P.S.: My English is not good, if someone answer do it simple please
Thanks!
Hi everyone I first want to sincerely thank everyone that will answer to try to help me solve these problems with my nexus.
So the other day my nexus suddenly decided to stop being awesome and it started to be a pain in the ass instead.
When I turn it on it just keeps loading the booting animation of android 6 marshmallowand it never turn on. I identified this problem as a "bootloop" and i tried solving it anyway but it's being really hard and i'm almost getting no results.
I first tried with going into recovery mode. from the fastboot the recovery mode won't start, pops out a died android with a red triangle on it. Pressing volume up and power from that screen got me to another menu. I tried wiping the cache and wipe all the datas/ factory resets but no results. the crappy marshmallow animation goes on till forever.
On the screen that follow the dead android appears the error: E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument).
After that i tried with the famous sdk tools.
I am able to unlock the bootloader with the command [fastboot oem unlock]. however after unlocking it, if I turn the phone off and on again it auto lock itself.
i tried to flash a recovery image with the command [fastboot flash recovery recovery.img] but it won't flash. I unlock the device first, and then i try to flash the images. it says ok after the sending but on the writing says FAILED <remote: flash write failure>
same things happen flashing anything else (android factory images etc.)
I can't use adb, i d need to put the usb debugging mode from the developer options but since I coulnd't turn it on I don't know how to turn this option on.
So i discovered existed a "download mode"
Apparently for the nexus5 you have to push volume up and then connect it to the usb to enter in it. I tried many times and it just don't go to download mode (is this the correct procedure??)
I installed the last google divers, no results.
I really don't know what to do, do you guys have any ideas about how to save it?
phone details:
hammerhead d821(E) 32GB
hw version- rev 11
bootloader version: hhz12k
Cheers
Mattia
I think your emmc chip has gone bad and that is why you are getting locked bootloader everytime you reboot the phone as it is not able to hold any memory.
I suggest RMA if its in warranty

OK so ur ennc chip is NOT dead, that little Android with the triangle is stock recovery, which u can do nothing with, ur going to need a PC, preferably running ubuntu or some other form of Linux with adb and fastboot installed, i cam help with that too if u need it, once u get that settled what u need to do is this, download TWRP for ur hammerhead and rename it recovery.img, place it in a folder u have access to. Open a terminal and connect ur nexus to the pc with USB cable, and boot into bootloader. Then type this into the terminal:
cd (folder with recovery.img in it)
fastboot reboot bootloader (this should boot u back into bootloader if ur device is connected right)
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot recovery
This will boot u to TWRP in which u can perform a factory reset, if this doesn't work and ur still in a bootloop, download ur fav rom and gaps and flash it, this will take care of everything
And there is no download mode on the nexus that would be bootloader mode, so let me get this right, what system are u on, and did u try manually formatting with ADB? What happens when u do, I would force format cache, system, boot, and userdata and then flash recovery, that might work

Hey guys, so I have this dilemma on my hands. One of my friends has a Nexus 5 that has a power button issue. It seemed like a stuck power button, because even cleaning it did not solve the issue. So I removed the power button, and it finally turned on. However, it's now stuck in a Google logo bootloop.
The Objective:
To recover all data on the device. This is a must.
The Obstacles:
- No physical power button, but I can place a pair of tweezers on the terminals on the board to simulate a power button press.
- Bootloader is locked (I can unlock it, but that erases all data on the phone).
- Cannot enter proper stock recovery (I get a "no command" error when I do; I've tried all button combinations afterwards, including the ones from HERE, but to no avail).
- USB debugging was not enabled on the phone when booting normally, so even though the phone is recognized by my PC, I cannot do anything using ADB.
- Fastboot mode is the only successful mode I can reach on the phone.
The Final Question:
Does anyone know how I can successfully recover all the data on the phone using ADB or any other method, having the above obstacles?
Thanks in advance.
If you can reach fastboot without any problem, you can try to boot a custom recovery image using the following command : fastboot boot recovery yourcustomrecovery.img
(if you dont have a custom recovery, you need to flash one with : fastboot flash recovery yourcustomrecovery.img)
It will boot in recovery mode and, I hope, allow you to have an adb access and recover your data.
edit : since your bootloader is locked, i guess this won't work.

I bit of a trick. Try 'fastboot flash boot recovery.img' but instead of kernel flash twrp. After flash do a 'fastboot reboot'. It will boot recovery. Via twrp the pc will recognize phone as a media storage. You will not erase any data

Thanks for the response, but the bootloader has to be unlocked for that to work, and while I can do that, it will wipe the data I need.
Hi,
I was trying to flash TWRP, but now I am stuck with flashing TWRP logo after rebooting or powering the phone on.
I am unable to get to the fastboot.
STEPS I did before brick:
1. unlocked OEM via official way
2. flashed TWRP
3. after that my phone was reset however most of the apps was missing, I was trying to do factory reset once again but it failed with the message "Data partition was heavily damaged"
4. I re-locked EOM
5. brick as mentioned above
Please help, I have the phone only two weeks and I have no idea how to fix this without fastboot.
Thank you.

Sounds like you flashed the 3030 version of TWRP. Download the 3020 version and put it in your fastboot folder. Plug in the USB to PC
Hold power and volume up untill the phone reboots. While it's still off immediately change to power and volume down and hold till it goes into fastboot (bootloader)
Now fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
With the 3020 version.
Unplug the USB and hold power and volume up until it says the phone is booting.. let go and TWRP will load.
Go to Wipe / format data / type yes
Reboot to system and your all set

So I've tried that but the phone is still booting to recovery (flashing TWRP logo) no matter what.
Basically the phone is always on now because if hold the power button (or any other combination) for a few second it will just reboot back.
I have an access only to ADB, but I am not able to boot to bootloader at all, it seems the bootloader is damaged somehow.
Also that warning about unlocked OEM doesn't have that text saying "hold volume up to boot to recovery" etc. like before brick.
Hi there,
Try using the Huawei Multi Tool with the Unbrick option : https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/tool-huawei-multi-tool-team-mt-t3523923
Speaking from experience, this little fellow helped me recover my phone when I bricked it ON DAY ONE after failed root attempt... (Derp)
Let me know if it helped you
(Leave a thanks if it did )
EDIT : This tool is also useful if you want to get lazy whilst rooting. I use it constantly when flashing diffrent bits and pieces
Clearly follow My steps To unbrick and get normal device ::
Step 1 ::
Download the full firmware of your device.
Step 2 :
make sure that your bootloader is in unlocking state
Follow the video blindly ::: https://youtu.be/OMKDnBqbi3U?list=PL...eT9J26lkefvVkK
don't panic of mobile.
Step 3 :: done ..enjoy u did it
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you bricked on nougat then follow the below steps
step one :::
download the downgrade package to mm .
then extract the zip and open the update.app using HuaweiUpdateextrator in that select recovery and extract
1.now, boot your device into fastboot and flash the recovery (Optional)(try this if it said incompatible version on recovery)
2. on your sd card and make a folder "dload" . and copy the update.app which we have extracted earlier
3.the switch off the device and press all three buttons you will be reboot into recovery and done . you device will be okey

Booting to the bootloader is just a timing issue
Phone must be hooked to PC with USB
And volume up and power till it goes black
Then immediately volume down and power and Hold untill the bootloader loads
Keep trying until you get it

I appreciate your help but I've tried it multiple times always with the same result.
I also can use "adb reboot bootloader", but it will reboot again to stuck recovery.

I've tried that, but I am still stuck as that tool is using fastboot as every other tool to flash .img files.
Thank you for the tip though.
Plug phone into computer with USB, then hold down power + volume down until it eventually boots into bootloader. I had the same scenario as you and that's how I got into the bootloader. You can flash either a good TWRP or the stock recovery, either one will work.
