Hello,
I own the R7s, I know these are the R7 Plus forums, but I didnt find a forum for my device. I have searched a lot on Oppo forums and contacted several people but couldn't find a solution.
I bricked my R7s when I tried to return from Project Spectrum to Color OS and now I have only fastboot access and the bootloader is locked.
On the Oppo forums I read, that I should contact a forum administrator to give me the tools necessary to unbrick the R7s. I contacted him several days ago, but got no answer.
Is there anyone here that might know where can I download these tools? I would be in your debt!
Thank you!

The last post on the thread you linked is mine. I've seen that post but it does not contain anything about R7s. Or am I missing something?

I think the r7s and the r7f might be the same. In any case as the phone is already bricked no harm in trying.

Ok, tried with the R7f service ROM and although the process starts, it hangs after 3-4 seconds, probably because of different partition structure of the 2 devices. Now I don't even have fastboot access. I think that if I had R7s service ROM, I might had more success in unbricking it. Anyone?
Perhaps you could get some help here?

After hours and hours of endless searching i think i found it myself from a chinese site. Downloaded it and uploaded it to google drive for faster downloads.
Here it is: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BybDE_sPI3b5cmgtU05fbXNobVU
I have an r7plus and I can assure you it is very hard to break these phones permanently.

The thing is that now that I ve found the ROM, i I can't get the phone to connect as qualcomm 9008. While before, I could get it to connect every time
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
Try holding the power up and power while connected to the computer till the computer recognises the phone. This worked for me. It sometimes can be difficult to get the phone to 9008 mode but it always works after fiddling a bit.

Finally managed to unbrick it with the factory flasher I posted above. After the process was done, I was able to boot into ColorOS recovery, and from there i put the latest OTA update zip into an SD Card and flashed it through recovery! The phone booted successfully and I was lucky enough to not lose my IMEIs

Please backup your IMEI through twrp or qpst. If have have your IMEI backed up now it will be impossible for you to brick your phone.
I am so pleased you managed to get up and running so quickly. I took a month to find the unbrick rom for my phone.

You can try to search here https://vnrom.net/2017/01/tools-rom-stock-oppo-r7s-r7sfex-unbrick-qualcomm-9008-9006/ or here http://www.needrom.com/download/official-firmware-oppo-r7s/
But as these are generic flashers you need to keep a backup of your IMEI, because there is high chance that it will be erased after flashing this

Hi,
Recently I brought T Mobile LG G2 Unlocked Phone from US. Few Days back I clicked on "Update&Center" Icon and it started updating apps and also I updated the system. This system update spoiled my phone with out knowing it I clicked on system update. After upgrade my phone is not starting and going to teamwin console as shown in image. I tried to find out solution in lot of website but I am not understanding where to start, how to start and what softwares I need to download. I tried to go to LG Service center here in India but they wont service other country LG mobiles. Even I tried to repair in mobile shop but no use.
Can some one please tell me the steps how to bring back my LG G2 Mobile to Working state. I am really confused what kind of software to download some one will say download drivers install through LG Flash tool. Please some one guide me what all steps I need to do. Any suggestion would be much appreciated.

I think my nexus 5 is hardbricked doing a paanodandroid ota update
This happened on latest paranoid android + latest franco kernel + TWRP
I wanted to update pa gapps (first 2 downloads md5 checksum failed, third time it worked) and when the phone booted afterwards, systemui failed and I couldn't do anything. I Thought this wasn't a big problem since the phone managed to boot. I long pressed the power button to shut it down so I could boot into recovery to restore my backup I had recently made. When I tried to boot into recovery it wouldn't do anything. Not boot into recovery and not into fastboot. How is this even possible by simply flashing gapps?
What should I do?
I've tried all the button combinations for more than 15 seconds.

I think it was just a coincidence that it failed after flashing gapps. I'd RMA it. Sounds like the emmc went bad. It's happened on a few n5's.

As i mentioned I managed to boot once into the (not working) rom after the (corrupted I think) gapps package had been installed, does that mean that the gapps file cannot have messed up the bootloader since I already managed to boot once after installing the package?

Hello guys, i need your help to unbrick my phone. First of all what i did to brick it was to unlock the boot loader, then used the Honor 6 Multi Tool to get a Cwm on it with it, it was EMUI 3.1 in the choosing. After that my phone restarted and now its hung up at Honor sign, and i can only access Fastboot mode but not recovery. I tried already playing new flashes on it with cust, boot, system and recovery and got a update on my sd card but it didnt work, it doesnt recognize my update and still only shows the honor screen, can anyone help me? Much appreciated

Is your phone recognized as an adb device?
Yes
Then get twrp for your phone by googling it along with how to flash it. After flashing that recovery, you can easily flash another ROM or even the stock ROM. Google it a bit and if you still need help, I will be happy to explain in detail.
naztaj said:
Yes
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Or alternatively if you don't want the twrp recovery, just download emui 4.0, use huawei update extractor to extract all images and flash them using adb tools.
One other method far more simpler which might or might not work, download latest firmware, extract UPDATE.zip, make a dload folder in your SD card, copy this zip in there, press and hold volume up+down+power to force an update from SD card.
In short, your phone is not bricked at all, just needs couple of hours of tinkering and it will be good as new.
Feel free to ask any questions. Will be happy to help in anyway possible.

Tq for the suggestion. So what ks brick anyway???
According to my limited knowledge and it is quite limited (IMO), There are two bricks, soft brick and hard brick. Soft brick is when you can enter bootloader or recovery or your device is still recognized as an adb device or you can still flash images to your phone after some tinkering (even when adb does not recognize it).
Hard brick, well, should be, when you can not do any of the above.
One can recover from a soft brick but not from a hard brick.

Maybe u can ask panamera2011 abt that. I have solved one problem by using his guide. My phone was stuck at bootloader after fail to root using srk tool but adb did recognize my phone. But yours didn't right? Just try pm him about ur problem. Maybe he has a way. Just my suggestion. Its worth a try. ??

No, I'm just telling you to be Careful when tinkering your phone
Hi,
I have installed TWRP and OpenKirin RROS rom, but not satisfied, so I'm looking for how to
relock bootloader, and return to stock EMUI.
My google skills seems to be lost today, as I cant find anything on how to restor the phone.
Anyone here that maybe can help me ?
EDIT: cant pass "your device has been unlocked" ... cant reach anything in the phone, only get bootloop
Best regards

The thing is, only thing that happen with any button combo is the blue honor screen, no more.
But I have started a ticket at huawei, to see what they say, but i guess it's service.

After flashing OpenKirin, and not being satisfied, all i did was following the steps to restore
the phone back to stock, flashed original recovery, locked the bootloader, but after all was
done and it was time to reboot, all i got was the blue honor screen, and nothing worked.

Do this now:
Boot to fastboot and unlock bootloader
Then flash TWRP latest version
Then flash the B380/381 firmware zip files with the hw zip file before the update.zip
It should now boot properly and you can relock bootloader after that if you want to.

Just shut down your phone then while holding the volume down button connect the cable to your phone. If it still doesn't work try changing cables. You surely can enter fastboot mode regardless of what you have done.

That's bad. You might wanna consider the service center.

@Anonshe: tried four different cables, same thing happens. @adriansticoid: I have a open ticket at huwaei, to see what they have to say, and I guess it will be service.

Now I come so far that the bootloader is unlocked again and twrp installed.
But I can't find B380 zip files, but maybe i'm blind or have bad google skills after having problems
with the phone a few days

You can install a custom ROM for the moment so you can use your phone. I'll search for it later I'm just a bit busy right now.

Hello everyone,
Today around 12:00, my phone did install the latest EMUI update available (365). However, I didn't noticed it and then I couldn't stop it ...
It messed up my system and I wasn't able to boot. eRecovery wasn't working either (unable to get packages).
I had twrp so I thought this was no big deal, but I couldn't manage to reinstall a stock rom, nor install a custom rom (I've tried them all, and none was working : blackscreens all the time), even thought I have experience in flashing roms and messing around with smartphones
I tried to rollback to an older version of my stock rom using huawei's rollback package (even if the manual says that I shouldn't do this since I unlocked my bootloader). The installation was flawless, and then it rebooted to reset my user data. The reset failed, and still couldn't boot.
I've tried to install custom roms again after that, but I was missing "/vendor" and "/product".
I am desperate and out of ideas.
I have access to bootloader, I have fastboot, twrp, and I have experience in flashing and all this stuff.
If you like challenges and you wanna proove that you're the very best like no one ever was, your help is much appreciated
Best regards,
Hazreath
PS : sorry for any english mistake

Yes I can boot into eRecovery !
Thanks for your interest sir
Hazreath said:
If eRecovery is the thing that you boot in when you press VOL +, VOL - and POWER, I have access to it.
However, if you're talking about the eRecovery we can boot in with a normal boot and 3sec VOL+ press, I'm afraid I can't ...
Thanks for your interest sir

I was talking about the second one. The first one was ghe dload flash. You use it if you want to manually flash a firmware. Maybe you cantry that too. Download a full firmware for your model (more or less 2GB in size), extract the update.app inside and put it in dload folder inside storage, and press the volume up, volume down and power buttons.

I already tried that and it led me to nothing :/
I tried both the EMUI 5.0 firmware and the rollback to EMUI 4.1. They were the only ones availables.
5.0 install failed(uncompatible), and rollback install worked but then user data reset failed...
What was your idea with the second one ? I can access to it, I was wrong (I modified my post a minute ago )
Thanks again
Problem solved !
I made a dload with a update.zip that I found here -> http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1277/g104/v74972/f1/full/update.zip
I'm in EMUI 4.1 and everything works fine (I miss the drawer but it works).
Thanks for your investment sir, and have a nice day

Get the zip file and extract it in a "dload" folder (create it) to your sdcard.
Put the sdcard into your phone and boot by pressing vol+,vol- and power, then click on the first option and wait !
Sorry I saw your answer a bit late :/

Telegram took me to the past centuries lol.
Anything to help in real time to avoid much of the mess is Ok. I was free for a while so helped quickly and he was quick to understand the things and follow everything as per instructions and was able to restore the phone.
