Can't enter recovery, fastboot or system. - General Questions and Answers

Hello Friends,
I've Huawei GT3 phone with me, i've purchased it from Dubai. I'm using this in india but couple of weeks ago i tried to flash the indian variant firmware on this phone. I was managed to run huawei 5c on this phone. But then i decided the go deep and tried to update the phone to the latest honor 5c firmware which ended up making my phone dead. Now i can't enter into fastboot neither can enter the recovery. My phone is neither starting nor charging. It's stuck at the honor 5c logo. I can't do anything. I've been to the service enter but they first said they can't do anything as this phone has been purchased out of india. So i decided to get it repaired by local mobile shop, but they can't repair it. I requested huawei service center to install indian firmware on my own risk but they i think have formally agreed and after couple of days they return me with out any success. I know my rom might be corrupt but i want the help guys because that's the only phone i have with me. Please if anyone has any idea regarding this then revert me here. You're help is appreciated.

Do a Google search for:
"Return to stock (your model number)"
Get the original stock firmware restored then flash the working 5c firmware that you had but don't try to update it this time.

I tried everything that's been mentioned over many posts. I'm having the problem, because the phone has stuck on honor logo, can't enter recovery or fastboot or the upgrade buttons combo(volume up, down, and power). Everything results in a phone sticking at logo.

Same thing happened to me also. Don't have any access to recovery, adb or system. Don't think it's a software issue. No help found online. Have to check more.

[Q] Unbrick Runbo X5

To start with let me first point out that when it comes to phones I'm a total noob. I got a Runbo X5 direct from China (I'm in America) and I tried to update the phone the way one of the Runbo Blogs said to. Well my Runbo X5 is totally bricked, it won't even turn on. I'm trying to find someone that I can send it to to be fixed. So far every repair service I've asked has said they can't do it, (I guess they just fix Samsung). I just want to send the phone off to get fixed. Can anyone help?

[Completed] How to downgrade honor 3c 4.4.2 Kitkat to jellybean 4.2.2?

I purchased this Huawie Honor 3c 3 days ago with an 4.2.2 jellyBean Running. I searched the internet for its KitKat 4.2.2 upgrade and there i found official upgrade for the cell phone from Huawei official website but the update was for China Telecom sets( individuals of China) only. i just downloaded it and applied it on my Honor 3c without backing up any previous data (added the update.app file in the dLoad folder of the SD card and restarted the phone in recovery mode). everything was going normal while updating and then something like "cust failed". and update couldn't complete. i rebooted the phone and screen appeared saying EMUI 3.0 and some Chinese alphabets. the touch system didn't work from that stage and i was stuck there. I removed the sdcard and tride to reset(wipe factory data) so that i can comeback to jellyBean again but same screen appeared after resetting even and i am stuck. I went to some technicians and they told me that there's a 50% chance the cell can be reverted and 50% is that its IMEI will be dead and blah blah! I dont know what to do now but i just want it back. kindly keep in that "warranty is voided on self Upgrade" so i can't even go to the Huawei franchise! I am stuck kindly someone help me because all i know it is just a software issue and everybody saying that hardware is corrupted. Help!

Best place to get help about your device is this thread: [GUIDE] Huawei Honor 3C H30-U10 - Bootloader Unlock, Root, TWRP, CWM, KitKat by codelover.
If you register on xda, you can post your questions in the corresponding Q&A thread.
IMO, when the issue is clearly hardware related and not caused by the manually installed software, this should not void your warranty.
I would try to claim it anyway.
Good luck !
Thread closed. Thank you!

Honor 8 bricked. DLOAD not working

Hi everyone,
My father had a problem with his Honor 8. When the new update was released it bricked the phone. Using the DLOAD, we were able to fix this problem, however he was still experiencing regular unwanted reboots. He decided to try changing the firmware again using the rollback file (from android 7.0 to 6.0) on a phone that was already on Android 6.0... Now the phone reboots on his own to the blue honor log screen and doesn't get out of it. We are not able to shut it off, nor go to DLOAD or anything. The only thing I was able to achieve was going to the fastboot. Anything else won't work.
The phone is an Honor 8 bought on Aliexpress. It's a AL10 version but the buyer had the FRD-L19 firmware installed on it. With the DLOAD, the last firmware the phone was on, was an EMUI 4.1 Android 6.0 L19 firmware.
Anyone has any solution in order to install newly a firmware and unbrick the phone please ?

True. My solution is only if out of warranty or warranty not provided!
Hi guys !
Thanks for all you answers. The phone is still under warranty so I contacted Alianz since I had a 1 year repair warranty possibilty and I sent the phone to them. I'm now waiting for them to tell me what's going to happen with the phone.
I'll keep you updated with what's going to happen and when we'll get the phone back
Thanks again !
Hi everyone,
I got the phone back from warranty and they solved the problem. I can't really tell what they did because the paper that came with it wasn't very detailed. But the phone is working perfectly anyway.
Thanks to everyone who tried to help solving this matter

[REQUEST] Nokia 7 TA-1041 Official Firmware

My partner from Chinese 7to forum had made TWRP adaption for Nokia 5, 6 and 8. Now it's time to find out how to install custom recovery and root Nokia 7.
To achieve that, I need the official firmware of Nokia 7 TA-1041.
That's it. It will benefit a lot for both XDA and Chinese Android communities.
Current version is 00CN_0_64C I think.
Thanks a lot!
UPDATE: I got the Nokia 7 firmware, filename is C1N-0430-0-00CN-B05.rar. But I won't release it until @blackpanther0582 or @Quixote78 got Nokia 2 and 7 firmware.
UPDATE IN Mar 12th 2018 (UTC+8): I released this firmware. You can find it from https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-7/development/nokia-7-stock-firmware-t3762166
Can you help me with this firmware bro

I got this firmware from local Nokia Service center where I sent a bricked Nokia 6 to them.
To protect the employee who gave me the firmware, I won't release it immediately.

That's sweet of you. I've just got my Nokia 7 and I might just brick it while playing with it. So, can I at least stay assured that if something wrong happens, you'll privately provide me with the firmware? ?
Phone won't boot
Some help would be fantastic and greatly appreciated. I received the phone brand new just yesterday and have turned it on to set it up but it will not go past the "Powered by Android" screen. I have tried so many times to enter reset menu to factory restore it but it is not possible. I think my only option left is to somehow flash the phone with the original firmware but as I've never used a newer Nokia before, I am unsure of that too. I contacted Nokia online support who refuse to help me because the phone is exclusive to China and I am based in Australia. I feel like I have been scammed with a brand new phone that I can not use.
asking for rom to unbrick Nokia TA 1041
Hello everyone.
I would like to know if you have the rom and firmware of TA 1041 CCN 4GB ram.

The same problem with "Powered by Android", only I'm from Belarus. Waiting for an answer from support.
Any update on this?
Got this phone recently from china (as it is unavailable yet in my country), its great but has a ton of software issues: setup screen constantly freezing, google play fires errors faster then a tommy gun, widgets and apps crashing, etc...
Really would like to be able to flash a clean rom.
Cheers!
I sent my phone back and going to claim a refund. I really want the phone because it has the specs that I want, the size that I want, the build quality that I want, and the look that I want. But it seems there is a software issue that means it doesn't function correctly out of China.

I have the same problem as you, the phone hangs on download mode after I reboot or power down consecutively 5 to 6 times after flashing the rom.
I cannot force flash the ROM, with OST LA, it hangs on "hwcfg" (C1N-0-0430-hwcfg.img) after 117 seconds of attempting to flash.
Google Play Store has been flashed in the original firmware, it is buggy as it doesnt update any application.
I think google applications are causing the phone to hang out and to bug.
I cannot seem to find a clean rom for this phone!

My biggest problem is updating/installing apps, as you said. I'm getting error 404 and no solutions from webs fix it. A funny related issue is that the phone is not showing up in the web version of Google Play (when you do a remote install). At least I think these issues are related.
Did you experience anything similar?

Yes I have experienced the same thing.
I have asked the reseller on Aliexpress for the original firmware.
I am waiting for his answer ...
What concerns me , I cannot find ANY ROM available for this Nokia 7 and the bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked on fastboot.
I hope one day a developer on xda could give us a clean ROM+GAPPS, with a TWRP recovery.
Support for the firmware is not responding. The theme on community.phones.nokia.com/support/discussions constantly removes.
Any update?
Mine got stuck in "Powered by Android"
To everyone who subscribed this topic:
I released this firmware. You can find it from https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-7/development/nokia-7-stock-firmware-t3762166

Honor 8 Do Not Enter eRecovey Mode

Hello everyone, I need my help, I bought my Honor 8 in Gearbest, version AL-10 (Chinese), but I made the huge mistake in updating, and with that it was only on the screen of eRecovery, searching the internet I found some steps and I did it, but now my cell phone does not call anymore, it's only on the screen with the Blue Honor logo, I can not do anything else, I do not enter eRecovey anymore, I can only enter Fastboot mode, but the phone is locked, Unlock this mode, from what I read I need to unlock it, but I do not have the product id to complete the unlock process, does anyone have any light on how it could make him come back to life?
How do you get it back into eRecovery mode?
Thank you guys
Sorry my english, I do not have much knowledge of the language.

Hello my friend
yesterday I ended up getting
I used a program called DC Phoenix, it unlocks and makes the recording of the new firmware
But now I'm trying to find a correct firmware for my cell phone
He entered cross flash, I installed a version yesterday and when he came up he showed me another version.
Hi alisonduarte,
You bought a chinese model of Honor 8 (AL10). But, did it came with a AL10 firmware or, in most cases of imported models, a rebranded one. (L14 or L19 maybe).
Rebranded chinese models (AL00 and AL10) are known to bootloop with recent firmwares. The last working firmware, for my own rebranded AL00 phone, is B380.
I advise you to rebrand your AL10 to L19, with the help of this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-honor-8-to-frd-l19-t3632220 (L19 Firmware link is dead, another link here: https://mega.nz/#!ELQXnYgb!H7c0hCSIZ6N3ljMBm8JD21-aaNY3E-1JD0M99dntr7o)
Then update to B380 using "Firmware Finder for Huawei" app -or- "dload" folder method -or- RedLotus method. (For the last one: HiSuite 5.0.1.300 needed, download link here. Use this "filelist.xml" link for FRD-L19C432B380 firmware: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G753/g104/v77475/f2/full/filelist.xml)
Good luck! =)
