[Completed] [OP3] After couple ROM change test my phone is unusable, HELP PLEASE ! - XDA Assist

Hello everyone,
I currently have a Oneplus 3 which is completly unusable and I'm asking for your help to make it working again.
Until yesterday I used OxygenOs 4.0.2 ROM and it was about a moment I was thinking about changing my OS for the LineageOS ROM on Android 7.1.1 .I already did in the past this kind of changement on my nexus 5 for CM 13.0 .
So, I prepared all the files I needed (TWRP, ROM, Gapps etc...) and compared a lot of similar tutorial for being able to do it perfectly and being sure everything will work fine.
Firstly, I unlocked my bootloader though my PC and installed TWRP whithout any problems.
After that, I started the flash of the ROM and the Gapps zip packs. Everything worked and I launched the OS for checking if everything work.
I also wanted to ROOT my phone so I rebooted it and went to recovery again for flashing the ROOT zip from the LineageOS website and I picked the ARM64 one because I saw on internet it was the one needed.
After that, when I reboot the phone onto the system I have to make a "reconfiguration process" on this kind of way : Choose language --> Restore from zero --> Choose network --> Google account.
But, after filed my google account information I was normally able to receive a text for the double checked of my account but never it never came and the configuration is finally unsuccessfull because IMPOSSIBLE to skip the "network" or "google account" step.
I also tried to connect my phone on an other google account without the double checked option and it doesn't work too with this king of alert : " The process doesn't work due to an unknow error. Try again in 24 hours " .
I concluded that the problem come from the ROOT ZIP file, so I put my phone again in recovery and I do a " wipe / factory reset " for doing the exact same process from the begining (installing ROM) until root with this time the ARM ROOT ZIP.
Finally, I got the exact same result with the Google Account problem.
I choosed to do the complete process a third time with this time the SuperSu v2.79 ZIP file .... Result still the same.
Finally, I stoped trying to root my phone and I did again a "Wipe / factory reset" for just installing LineageOS and the Gapps pack. And I was suprised to see that the same problem continue to happen ! I wipe the phone and did again and again and again.
But, after all of that I choosed to do it on an other way. I saw on internet that " format data" through TWRP could be a solution for cleaning everything and start from zero. I did it and the process failed ....
From this point, I am with a phone which can't do anything and which saying that's impossible for it to "mount data" and other but I prefer to show that part on pictures. I think it'll be better for understanding (Excuse me for the pink because my HTC One M7 spare phone) :
Above there are the information that TWRP give me when I start it :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
On an other hand, the phone is recognize by the computer just as a multimedia device and it's impossible to write on its memory or just having access on it :
I hope I was the most clear as I could and hoping as well for an existing solution for my issue (in better case with LineageOS on it with root working ! But I don't want to ask to much !).
Also, I am french and I apologize for my english if it can be weak sometimes.
Thank you in advance. I'll allways available if you need further information.
PS: Since my bootloader is unlocked I have these both pages when the phone boot (Picture 1 and 2) which normally permit me to boot onto the system, recovery, fastboot etc .... (Picture 3) but in reality there is NOTHING happening and I always have to do it on the classic way if I want to boot on recovery or fastboot (hold power button + ..... etc...) :

What is it you're trying to do? AFAIK you're on official bootloader. This won't do anything more than flash an official ROM. If you have this ROM on your sdcard, it'll locate it automatically and starts flashing it. If you want to flash other custom roms, you need to install custom recoveries like CWM ot TWRP. Make sure you follow the instructions and pay particular attention to what official ROM you're on (Hint: search forum for pertinent threads). From where I'm sitting, the first thumb is not that clear, but I'd guess you're on 4.2 since it doesn't have the fastboot USB icon. Mistakes can brick your tab.
i was trying to install cyanogenmod 10 on my system, but i folllowed instructions about getting into a bootloader,and to wipe it off data and cache,i did that but that after that is says that i have to install from sd card. i cant find that selections, i got cyanogenmod on my sd card, but how do i install that cym on my tablet,and yes i'm on the version android 4.2.1.....

Check this thread out. You'd need to install a custom recovery first (I always rely on TWRP for this tab) using ADB. Then you can flash your favorite CM10 with it. Post your questions if you have difficulties following the instructions. Have fun.
in this tutorials does not shows how to install a cyanogenmod 10,,it only shows how to update, for update i have done that, and for rooting its all done, but i dont see nowhere about installing cym10...
Flash CM10

You gotta have custom recoveries to flash CM10. Since you're on 4.2.1, you want to follow instructions here to downgrade to 104220 official. Once there, install a custom recovery (TWRP 2.5.0.0), then flash CM10 in accordance with this thread. If you prefer CM 10.1, search in development section. There are at least 2 or 3 threads.

[Q] Flat Battery → Charged → Stuck On Boot Screen.?

Hey there ...
I'm asking because I don't know what's wrong.?
Battery went flat on me, so I charged it up as normal,
when I pressed the power button to boot up, that's as far as it went.?
I can get into Recovery ( TWRP, v2.3.2.3 ) fine, access to KB SD Card = Nill tho.?
Currently using a " Team EOS " ROM, happy to change to another ROM to fix this !!
Can anyone help or suggest anything.? What have I done wrong.?

Tab boots now, but old apps still there after fresh Rom install.?
Wow, I must say ...
I am " very disappointed " that I did not get a reply sooner than now ...
With over 45 views & no replies.? Has no-one been in my situation, stuck on the boot screen.?
I do realize not "everyone" knows how to fix things, but still, I was surprised that I got no replies, very surprised!?
Only thru " guessing " what to do, I chose to try & flash another ROM on to fix it ...
Apart from having initial "memory-card" issues, I successfully copied over a rom of my choice!
I had to take the microSD out of the TF101, into a card reader, to copy over the Rom & Gapps!
With the Rom on the memory card, I pressed the power + down volume, waited for the text to appear, then pressed the up volume!
Once inside my TWRP Recovery, (backup already done) I chose "Wipe" from the choices expecting to wipe "everything! Hmmm...
I installed the Rom of my choice ( KatKiss ), wiped cache, wiped dalvik, pressed reboot & waited ... Success, it's now booting up!
Question : What happens IF I keep the install the way it is.? - Even tho thru rebooting, it did say "Android is updating... 56 or 121" etc ...
*** After it all settled down, I noticed that ALL my apps etc, were ALL still there.? - What have I done wrong.? Why are all my apps still there.?
Am I safe to keep this install ... OR ... Do I do a fresh install (which I prefer & was expecting)!! What step did I miss, please tell me, I need to know!
Still NOT Booting Up! → Still Stuck On Boot-Screen.??
Can someone PLEASE help me.?
... I'm still stuck on this Boot Screen ...
Battery did go flat again, charged it up,
& when I rebooted it back up, I got the original boot screen & went no further.? WHY.?
I still need help on getting my Tablet setup "correctly", as obviously I'm doing something wrong.?
All ROM's install, but NEVER gets past the boot screen.? WHY.? Is there a step I'm missing.? Please tell me !!
I did do yet another complete "factory reset" ...
I then proceeded to do ALL WIPES - IE; Dalvik Cache , System , Cache , Data - Installed ROM (KatKiss-KitKat #036), install Gapps, wipe Dalvik & Cache, reboot ..
Apon rebooting, I get THE SAME SCREEN.? - Again, WHY.? - What the hell am I doing wrong.? - The message says "Install Successfull" .. Why doesn't it boot up.?
Hello there,
well, I had some Problems with my TF101 too. So.. maybe I am able to help you.
First of all: Are you able to connect your Device with your PC?
APX working?
ADB working?
Dont know if I am able to response very soon, so please feel free to look at my "Problem" Thread and what I have done or how I solved it:

Can any one help me what needs to be done to proceed further.
i didnt wipe the data before. Now its working and closing the thread
I wiped everything on my phone via TWRP. Still getting this error!
This topic is old but in case someone else gets here I got a solution - Change /data partition filesystem to ext4 or other supported by ROM

In twrp, I had to fumble around to find advance wipe to clear data but worked like charm after that.

xiaomi note 4g dior
Let me tell my story,
My friend gave me an old xiaomi note 4g which was stuck at the MI icon on boot,
Luckily the phone did not lock boot-loader
So I use xiaomi flash rom to flash global room , it worked after i tried sometimes.
Then I booted to the phone, and other problem came, the phone was linked with an Mi Account , and my friend forgot everything about it
not email, no phone number
I did a search and they said the only way to bypass the MiAccount is using a Resurrection ROM or balallala
so I ended up with using
1. fastboot to install twrp
2. open twrp --> open adb sideload mode.
3. Open window command line and install Resurrection ROM though adb sideload
While installing rom though adb slideload , i got the same issue with topic
SO i cleared data and tried again,
IT WORKED , NO MORE ****ING MiAccount
THANK a lot

Hi
Playing with my wife's Nexus 5, bootloader unlocked, rooted, and latest TWRP installed but when trying to flash from android 6.0.1 to Lineage, I'm getting an error 7 image shown I hope.....
Is this just because I haven't wiped the data first ? (I'm fairly sure but...)
I dont dare try 'cause if it's not that she'll kill me, so would like to be sure before I wipe all her data..
Thanks
Update, it was that I just wiped all except the SD and flashed, all is just great

Trying to backup a locked Android Phone

So I have a small problem that has giving me a headache the past few days. I got an old Nokia 6.1 from my mom & was asked to get the pictures & documents from it. I removed her pattern lock, because I was annoyed to use it all the time. A couple of days later, the phone has out of the blue a security pin. Which obviously no one knows, because no one configured it...
I spent hours looking different ways to extract the data or to bypass the lock & sofar I think I ran out of all the options.
Here is my current state & I would really appreciate some advice how to proceed.
1. Find my device:
The phone is on the list. But it shows that the last activity was on the 10th january & can't be reached it even though it's connected to the internet via my mobile data. Furthermore it seems that I wouldn't be able to unlock it anyways because it only gives me two options "Call the Phone" & "Set up secure & delete".
2. Installing Aroma to extract the data/remove lock files:
I can't do that because there is no custom recovery installed on the phone. Just the stock.
3. Installing a custom recovery:
I can't install/flash anything on the phone because the developer options, usb debugging & bootloader are not unlocked/enabled.
I came as far as being able to see my dive with adb on my pc, but I couldn't flash anything of it, because the signature fails.
I'm now posting this threar, to see if anybody has some advice for me, how I could get the pictures from the phone.
Thank you all in advance~

The door to any Android device is ADB.
You say
came as far as being able to see my dive with adb on my pc,

hence ADB obviously is fullly working, means it should be possible to pull out the data in question by means of ADB.
Hi, thank you for your answer, I have expressed myself wrong/mixed adb & fastboot up. What I wanted to say, is that I can see the device via fastboot. Unfortunately not over adb.

as you can also see in the screen
If I understood what I read, there is no way to access the phone like this, is that correct?
Is there anything else I can do?
The Phone itself gives me an option to "Apply Update from ADB". My knowledge about this stuff is barely anything. But is there a way for example I could install/update an android version/new system without losing the internal data? At that point I don't care about the phone working properly, as I would like to get the pictures from it & root + wipe everything from it.
push
As "Apply Update from ADB" implies this option is used to flash an OS's update provided by OEM/carrier: updating an OS doesn't affect user data stored on phone.
Have you ever tried to exit phone's fastboot mode by running Fastboot commands
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot reboot
I ended up factory resetting the phone. This Thread can be closed
If you have usb debugging on. Then you can use ADB. You can try to mount user partition and you can copy that partition.

Hi Guys,
I'm super new to the whole topic and am only doing this because I have a spare smartphone and wanted to learn something.
The bootloader is unlocked.
The USB drivers are installed on the PC.
USB Debugging is turned on.
Smartphone states "Orange State [...]" while booting.
Then I tried to extract the boot.img via the "MTK Droid Root & Tools v2.5.3" to flash this later with Magisk. But here I got the following error message:
Spoiler: MTK Error
The same messages have been there before I did anything on the smartphone for the first time.
From DE to ENG:
--->>> Connect to device <<<---
--- ERROR: --- TotalBytesPerChunk Not Found. Set default Page/Spare=2048/64 !!!--- unknown ROM structure, backup NOT possible!ATTENTION! a file (/system/recovery-from-boot.p) which restores the stock recovery in case of normal phone startup was found!
So I flashed a stock rom here from
Spoiler: link
Umidigi A7 Pro Stock Firmware ROM (Flash File)
Download Official Umidigi A7 Pro Firmware (original flash file) without any password for Free. We also provide the Stock Rom for other Umidigi devices.
xdafirmware.com
to the phone via the SP Flash Tool (because I did something that enabled the first Boot Loop), the phone restarts in factory state succesfully, I set it up once and then installed Magisk, and using Magisk patched the boot.img of the from I downloaded.
However, when I now want to flash it via the flash tool, this error message appears:
Spoiler: Flash Tool Error
And suddenly I am in boot loop. As soon as I flash the original boot.img, the phone starts as usual.
I have also tried the whole thing via TWRP, and as soon as I install Magisk.zip via the TWRP the boot loop angers me again. Also MTK still shows the same error.
Spoiler: I have followed the following instructions:

I'm happy about anything that helps me out getting this phone rooted
Sorry my friend that noone has yet to have replied to your inquiry here. Ill do my best to give you some of the knowledge I have when it comes to setting you in the right direction without failure next time. Today and for the last month or so I have been working hard with the Umidigi a7 pro 64gb. To be clear are you making sure to flash the magisk zip file of the boot.img file that you saved from the stock firmware. You shouldn't have to fiddle around with to many of the settings just when you do flash the patched file you have to make sure to uncheck everything other then boot.img patched file. I am very new to this as well and honestly it's a tricky process to get it ever done right on your first attempt. You seem to have and know enough knowledge on this topic. MTK is a finnacky processor. I myself have yet to get this device fully rooted yet. The issue I myself have is my PC is not properly updating the MTK and other drivers to make the magic happen which I think I am just going to have to get my other dell going again to try on a fresh PC that I just set up again for this exact thing. To my most recent knowledge though when it comes to the Umidigi a7 pro you have to follow each and every step closely and to a exact precise t or the whole operation will fail every time you try. Are you using your micro SD card to it's full potential and making sure that you saved the patched file properly. You also have to watch for corrupt files when it comes to this kind of thing. But you know enough to just trust the pages you are downloading your files from and make sure everything is signed and legit. Another thing is what seemed to help me is removing SP flash tool completely from my PC. Then re downloading it and starting from scratch by flashing your stock scatter file and I find when flashing hold the power button when it starts for just a few seconds only some people think to keep holding the power button through the entire flash process but to my knowledge what has worked from a noobs perspective is hold power for just a few seconds until the full load of the red bar comes and then when it goes away you can let go of power button and it will continue on with the rest of the manual installment process. There are a lot of high technical highs and lowes when it comes to what you can do here and from the info I've gotten MTK devices weren't really meant to be able to withstand even being remotely compatible devices for root. Honestly let me know how things are going lately for you as I know this post is a bit old. I myself have came close to periodically throwing this phone as far out of the window as it can reach, I'm not a quitter by any means and still today and even right now m working on that to try to help others in any way i possibly can and today I will get this device into full root accesss.
