The long story:
I'm a total noob in this subject. I don't even use my phone on a regular basis and I basically just got a smartphone like 2 months ago. At the rare cases when I used my phone (which is a huawei p7, if I'm correct) it was very noticeable and frustrating for me that I wasn't the administrator of it. I used linux and windows based computers throught out my whole life and it wasn't very comfortable for me to use an android... it just felt discusting how closed the OS was to me.
Soooo.... I tried to get rid of that annoying factor by rooting. And it went wrong... I watched a short youtube tutorial and tought it seemed fairly easy so I downloaded Kingo ROOT, connected my phone to my laptop and ran the root. The root completed, however my phone didn't turn off and restart nor during or after the root. So I decided to restart it miself and then I was stuck at the bootloop screen with the huawei logo. Then I tried to factory reset it and that didn't work either. Then tried to remove the root by connecting my phone in fastboot mode to my laptop but then my laptop didn't recognize my phone. I asked for help from a friend who said that I should ask for help here. I can't remove the back of my phone to remove the battery either because the huawei p7's back isnt detachable (Correct me if I'm wrong).
Any ideas?

Greetings and welcome to assist. There is a guide to rooting your device here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/general/guide-root-huawei-p7-t3311424
it appears that you may need to unlock your bootloader first.
There is a collection of firmwares here

You can use this guide to restore any state to the factory installed state:

I am with ATT and i have had the IMEI registered with them for the phone. I verified the APN but when i connect with ATT it lets me on the 3g network for about 1 minute then drops me completely. I have read hear to use the fix for the ZP0810 so i got the tools and i have the connection the problem comes from when i am following the directions. I cant get it to ever enter the root mode. It says i have root access but all it does is sit the goophone splash screen. the tools i am using come from this spot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2174075) but the database came from another section on here.
I know i am not being very descriptive but i am not a developer and I am more upset about the phone not working it was a present for the wife and it has been a nightmare for me. so any help you can give me would be great.
If i have to buy a new ROM for it i will. I would just need better instructions Tools, Steps and verifications required on my part. I am a mechanic and i know hammers and saws better then ROM's
I appreciate it all in advance if you need more info or pictures or what i am using right now please let me know.
update i have tried the tools given researched them and all but when i go to do the update using the attachement that i have attached and followed the youtube example but i am stuck and truly need some help. I got the tools to run but when i set the tool to connect to smartphone in meta then remove the battery and reinstall and click reconnect i get nothing but the Goophone splash it doesnt progress any further. I have been doing this now for 2 weeks total and have read extensively about how to do it and i feel confident i can do it now if i can figure out what is going on with not going past the splash screen.
I am using window 7 64 bit and i have to run the tools as windows xp sp3 in order to not get a mem error. So any suggestions would be helpful thank you
this is the step that is stopping me from applying the fix
"Then remove the mobile phone battery and reinstall ,click to Reconnect,charger mobile phone through link
to the USB"

Hi everyone.
First sorry my poor english.
Yesterday I received a phone (LG L4 II E467F Dual SIM) from a customer, the unit was but connecting the loading stopped with the LG logo and stand on this screen. I tried to upgrade the PC Suite, the cell was placed in download mode and the update is performed by the software, download and recording was carried out on the device during the recording process progress was up to 94% with the power on, when he got 95% the device was turned off automatically (A device's battery was at about 70% during the process), then the process has reached 100% normally without error messages.
After this the phone turned a brick, does not care, does not vibrate, does not go into download mode, finally does nothing. But noticed that it was shown in Windows Device list without driver. I used a software to install drivers and the device driver has been installed and he was recognized as "USB Port MTK (COM5)."
I watched a few topics about it, but could not properly understand the procedure and I was afraid to end any device recovery chance.

Does anyone know how I can recover the bootloader of the device?
The bootloader is my biggest concern, because if the device start and stop again with LG logo can at least return the device to the customer.

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. The purpose of XDA Assist is to point you in the right direction, it's not a help desk. See this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2764768. Since your looking in the right place to get your question answered I'm going to close this thread.
Hi guys, i am new to this forum and would like some help on restoring a bricked (don't know how bad) android tablet. It first got jammed on the start screen logo because of an app that i uninstalled the wrong way. I then tried to reboot it and that is where the problem started, so I decided to try flash a nexus or TWRP or a CWM image with amd with no avail but my phone was detected. CMD kept on displaying that the size of the images were too large, but the RAMDISK.img flashed. After this I also tried sideloading the nexus 5 image, since that's all I could find in the bootloader that actually worked. Unfortunately, as soon as i copied it showed 'aborted' therefore I rebooted it and the cycle began
The battery then drained and now I can't access recovery mode or fast boot (only the menu) which eventually goes off after a few seconds, and when I plug it in, it shows the critical battery sign then tries to boot, but doesn't charge and does this repeatedly. It doesn't display the boot image at all.
It is an Alps LC 007 Tab with some MTK kernel and a custom recovery and bootloader. Is there any hope of reviving my tablet? Please help????????

Seriously? I came to this forum with a mild situation and now I've completely bricked my mt65xx device doing things I didn't know how to do. It's been 3 days!
DAY 1
I try use adb to undo soft brick but the battery dies and I can't access the bootloader or fastboot or recovery but just the boot menu.
DAY 2
I try use the SPF tool with not much knowledge from the YouTube videos I watched and I end up formatting my device with only a backup of the system.img (which isn't even an image).
DAY 3
The device is completely unresponsive after trying over and over with a little bit more knowledge from research.
Now I'm wondering what would've happened if I got a response at least to catch my attention and stop me from doing things without knowledge of what I'm doing. I'm not forcing People to help but at least reply so that I stop. 108 views and no reply. Sorry if I sound a bit too grumpy but I am not happy. .......

Hope that you will find a way to unbrick your device.
Problem: You have purchased a China Lenovo S856 smartphone and tried to flash ROW ('Rest of World') firmware to it for whatever reason. You now have a softbricked phone that won't boot past the Lenovo screen.
Solution: Download the following files, which are a little tutorial with pictures, as well as the correct China firmware for your s856 and the Flashing tool to use....https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6knvSQRiKPzQTMtaXFXZEFNbHc https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6knvSQRiKPzRTk4ZTB3c1VDdzA https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6knvSQRiKPzWVA2UENuY1NYTkk
All the solutions I have seen so far were sketchy at best and very difficult to comprehend, let alone use to unbrick your phone. This is what worked for me, and my attempt to help anyone else with the above problem.
That is all, and good day to you.
Thanks for your help, but my problem looks very difficult now, because the system cannot recognize the phone and the phone refuse to boot on. What do you advice?

Hello...
My system did not recognize my phone, either. Nor would it boot up... it was bricked. This tutorial is for people who are exactly in your situation. I would suggest downloading the files I have uploaded, and reading the tutorial.

Finally got the process started,...but after 7s I got and error message Reached the end of the file.(0x80070026: Receiving hello packet)
Could it be my PC (win 10 32 bit) problem or what do you think?
This happened to me as well, the first and second time I tried the flash. There is a trick which worked for me... I pulled the battery out and put it back in and while holding the volume 'up' button, I plugged my phone into my computer usb port and let windows install the driver. It took a few seconds and then I clicked 'refresh' on the Miflash window, which I had left on. At this point the 'flash' button became available and I clicked on it. This time the flash was successful. Try it.
