[Completed] Bricked Alcatel 4015A - XDA Assist

This is my first post on this website. I have read as much as I could in the forums and watched tutorials on Youtube but I still haven't found a solution.
I had Mediamod V5 and TWRP 3.0.0-0 recovery on my phone. It was moving really slow so I decided to boot into recovery and clear the cache like I would usually do. It took a really long time but it eventually finished and then rebooted. After a while though, the phone just turn off and when I tried to turn it on back, I saw nothing but the Logo. I went into recovery and there was a message saying that the system partition was unmodified. I tried clearing the cache but it was unable to mount the cache, system or data. TWRP could not repair the file system and I couldn't do a factory reset. I tried using ADB and fastboot commands to clear to userdata but it also failed.
I saw people posting that Alcatel Mobile upgrade helped them so I tried. It failed after it was trying to format userdata. I thought it was a driver or usb cord issue so I bought 2 new USBs that are for the alcatel phone and I installed all of the MTK drivers. This still didn't help.
After this I download the alcatel 4015 firmware, MTK droid tools and SP Flash tool. I got the scatter file and everything and tried to flash it but I got Error 4010. The suggestion was to try different firmware. I did that and it stilled failed. I tried a suggestion which said to use the write memory option and flash the preloader.bin and ROM_0 which I found here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=2003. That also failed.
The closest solution that I found was to repair the partition table but I don't know how to do this. Can anyone help me?

[Completed] Soft bricked my phone while Porting new ROM.

Okay... So i'm using my dad's old Canvas Knight which is a mtk 6592 device. It had many viruses and I tried factory resetting it but didn't do any good. So here's what i did next. There were no good custom ROM's for my device(or any at all) so I looked for porting some other ROM. I found this website mtkroms dot com and saw many users were using this guys guide to install other custom ROMs. I made a port for myself for this rom :-Lollifox V6 for mt6592 . At first I was unable to install it because of a status 6 error but I got around it googling stuff. Now when the ROM Successfully flashed and after rebooting my phone its stuck at the bootlogo. If I press the power button it just reboots and gets stuck at the logo again. Next I opened CWM again and tried to usb mount my device so I could install the stockrom but again it gave an error(something like unable to load ums file or something). same happened when i tried to mount sd card. I also made a mtk Droid tools backup for it. I tried to install it using sp flash tools, it started successfully but the whole process just took about a 5 seconds. rebooted my phone again, only now the old boot logo was back and the phone was stuck again at the boot screen. PLZ help....
PS:- I Backed up almost everything before the whole process also I can access my internal sd card if choose the install from internal sd card option in CWM.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. It's very common when trying to port a rom to get into a bootloop if the port has some errors in it. What you most likely need to do is either restore your nandroid in your custom recovery, if you have one, or return your device to stock and start over. There isn't a forum for your device on XDA but I did find this where others with your device may baa able to help you, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2623192

Hey!!
Thanks for replying. So I tried to restore my nandroid in CWM but it gives an error saying "E: Can't mount /sdcard". As I mentioned it earlier I tried to restore my StockRom using SP flash tools but the whole process took 5 seconds to complete. To no surprise It was stuck again at the bootscreen. The only diffrence was that this time the old bootlogo was back(the stock one).

Soft Bricked Lenovo Tab 2 A8-50F

Hello,
I have an a8-50f that I was attempting to flash with a new ROM because I had the wifi issue that this particular model seems to have (connection basically dropping a minute or so after connecting to wifi). I flashed a TWRP which was supposed to be for my model. The guy on the forum post in which I found the link said it worked on his a8-50f. However, when I tried to boot the device after flashing TWRP it kept failing to mount "/data". After attempting a couple things to fix it I (stupidly) lost bootloader access via adb, when I tried to wipe the drive with China Recovery.
So now it's hanging at the Lenovo boot screen. I can still access China Recovery but it doesn't seem like I can do anything with that. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix the system or recovery partitions from this state? Maybe how to revert the TWRP flash. I have what should be the stock system and recovery images if someone knows a way to attempt a flash without adb access.
Thanks a lot for any help you guys can provide.
*Can't post images because I'm a new account. The TWRP error screen is at /ycD6B0e on imgur.
I know it is late but try Mtkclient. https://GitHub.com/bkerler/mtkclient
After building Mtkclient start the GUI and plug the tablet in from an off state.
Hope this works.

Bricked Alcatel Idol 3 4.7 6039S

Hi, I came here because I've tried to fix my phone but no hope. My situation si that I'm on a Loop in the booting process where the phone starts the booting process but crashes maybe on the bootloader. My system can see the Port COM 4 and I tried the Mobile upgrade program but after it detects the phone and I click "Update" button the phone goes into the loop maybe trying to get into Fastboot. Lastly, the download fails.
I have never hacked or made any modifications on an Android phone before so I'm a complete noob to this ADB tools and don't have a clue on how to use any tool to recover this phone.
I'm able to boot into "Download mode" and nothing else, maybe there's a combination for getting into the bootloader but I don't see anything about that in the many searches.
Any help is much appreciated.
you device is bricked and you try root install a custom rom or a bad upgrade

First boot into recovery and wipe cache and data.
If that fails try again. It fails again use the below method to restore your phone.
Go into download mode and using the ABD install your stock rom., Meaning your phones original version.
Your phones not bricked.
Stuck at Bootscreen (BootLoop)

Hope this helps.

Moto G Bricked?

Hi.
A friend gave me his Moto G1 2013 to install Linage OS but I'm really having troubles with it, first of all it doesn't allow me to install TWRP, when I type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img it says that it installs but it doesn't, when I try to boot on it it just doesn't boot, the way I had access to TWRP was typing fastboot boot recovery.img...
When I got in I did the first step when you install a new Custom ROM that is wipe system, cache and dalvik cache, then I tried to install the ROM zip file but it gave me "error 7" I looked for solutions and I found one that is modifying updater-script file, I did it but it gave me another error about mount system, I looked for solutions too and I found one that is modifying file system format to anotherone and then bringing it back to the original format but still having the same error.
After that I decided to go back to stock ROM, I have flashed many times the stock ROM with fastboot commands but it just doesn't boot into the OS, when I try to boot the phone it boots into bootloader again... Any solution to this? Is it a hardware problem? Please help me I'm so embarrased with my friend.
Same thing happened to me!

Hi! I tried something similar with a similar result. I first unlocked my Moto G's bootloader. Then installed TWRP using fastboot. After that I tried flashing Resurrection Remix rom which failed. I've been stuck in a kind of bootloop since then. My handset powers up, finds something wrong, tries to go into recovery, fails and does this over and over again.
Since I am able to boot into bootloader mode, I tried to flash the stock rom by following instructions from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47820707#post47820707
I have tried different variations from many different forums (fora?) all with the same result. Still stuck in the bootloop-thingie.
Btw, I also tried the unbricking guide from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-unbrick-moto-g-falcon-t3394788 without any success. My phone shows up as a Motorola ADB device and also as XT1033 in Device Manager when its plugged in.
Anyone know anything to help me out?

Hi, I found the solution time ago, sorry for answering to late, hope I can still be helpful.
Well, what I did is, I booted into TWRP, then I did a total format to the storage, after that I did something kind of crazy, I switched my storage format to anotherone and then I turned it back to how it was before (example: I was on fat32, I switched to exFAT and then I switched again to fat32) after doing that I tried to flash LinageOS and it allowed me, it booted and now my friend has Android Oreo on his Moto G1
Hope it works for you mate, those situations are very frustrating, good luck
