Good afternoon,
I was trying to install magisk on my Wiko selfy, and patched a room in magisk manager, then, I flashed the boot.img thru adb, and got into a bootloop.
Now, I'm trying to install the stock room with no patch thru sp-tools, and, I got an error message, saying the chipset on the stock room didn't match the phone's processor(it was saying the phone's chipset was the one that wiko rainbow lite uses and not selfy's), so, now I'm completely lost, e with a non functional phone.
Please help
(Sorry xda mods for posting this on the Wiko rainbow thread, but there isn't a thread for this phone)

The Afterlife6.0 was said to be compatible with my Nitro 401D which has the aame MTK no.
However, whenever I try to flash it (using cwm) it says installation aborted. It doesnt say any status about it eg Status 6 or Status 7 but i still used the fix for one which is trying to change the name in the updater script to fit the name of my phone but when I looked, it doesnt have that particular line for checking the name. And the other one was changing the directory of the lines in it but I didnt want to change it because i wasnt so sure about the directories myself.
Ive tried downloading from another source, still didnt work. Now Im wondering maybe its my phone so Ive been considering using SP flash to force it in(? Im still not quite sure what it does tho) and also change my custom recovery (currently cwm) to twrp or ctr. Maybe my phone cant flash anything at all so ive been also considering trying to flash a small file or like a test rom, are there any of those?
What should I do next? Im scared of forcing it in causr it says that if the phone has the wrong preloader my phone can never be recovered..

Do you install CWM successfully? Did you try another custom rom?

From everything I have done on trying to root this phone, I guess MTKdroid tools installed CWM in the process. It is rooted now tho, checked with rootchecker basic. I havent tried any other roms since Afterlife 6.0 is the only one i found.
UPDATE:
Apparently, the CWM wasn't properly installed, my bad :crying:
I tried to install another ROM like Lollifox (will try MIUI later, still downloading) but I don't think I ported it successfully tho because it just showed installation aborted, no Status whatsoever.
I have now flashed Afterlife6.0. However, its now stuck at boot but a while ago it was on boot loop but after wiping caches and doing a hard reset, its now on boot forever. By boot I mean it just shows the Sony logo (supposedly the Arc Mobile logo before I flashed the rom) then the logo disappears and then its just a black screen (a black screen as in its still turned on and not a black screen as you would see when a phone is off).
I'll try to flash my stock rom and root it again so that I could flash other roms for now while waiting for your reply.
try stock rom on the official site. than try to update cwm and try rooting again.
I already fixed it by flashing the stock tho so no worries I guess.
I successfully ported Lollifox but I encountered a problem where I couldn't save anything because my phone doesn't recognize my SD card. It can be seen in the settings/storage though but what the rom can't do is recognize that the "SD card" is internal not external. Its sort of hard to explain, I have 2 storages: Internal memory and Phone storage. The internal memory is the default place where apps go while the Phone storage acts like the SD card of this phone but its internal as well ( at least that's how it acts on the stock ROM). I tried unmounting it (apparently I have that option on Lollifox but its internal so I don't know how that's possible) and remounting it but no dice. Also, since it doesn't recognize the SD card, it kind of explains why there's no USB mass storage option when I connect it.
I tried to port the MIUI and did the 2 ways of porting it told in the site where the rom came from but whenever I flash it, it boots up and gets stuck at the logo of MIUI.
I'm leaning away from Afterlife 6.0 now cause I can't really see it would be a better ROM (and you got to give it that the themes of MIUI and Lollifox are pretty AF) but I think its more suitable (still can't flash it tho) . Can anyone give thoughts on the best rom for this or a fix for these problems?

sometimes you need to format the phone memory at the beginning for one time after you install new ROM. Try that and restart the phone. One time i did this like this problem. Sorry for my english.

Solved
I think I already solved my own problem though. I just had to do a few tweaks and do a little bit of trial and error myself. However, I still couldn't flash Afterlife (also tried porting it myself and Im suppose to do a logcat or something but I lack free time) but I still have a rom flashed don't worry. Kind of feel sorry it feels like a waste of a thread.
Now Im asking for this thread to be closed(or atleast I think thats how it works cause I dont seem to have that option myself)
Thank you
Hello! i don't know if this is the correct forum to post this content, but iI am facing a problem to do root in my Samsung Galaxy Ace 4 Neo. I'm going to tell the story: First I was trying to install with android rom 5.0 on my phone (which was with root working perfectly), (I couldn't find a rom compatible), but before you look for the rom, I decided to install the recovery of Clockword Mod, that has not been successfully installed, and my smartphone doesn't leave the splash screen, and I was unable to access the recovery (a red exclamation point appeared in the upper left corner) so I decided to download the original rom of my smartphone and install with odin, but I still couldn't access the recovery, so I extract the recovery.img file of rom, converted to .tar.md5 and installed with odin, worked perfectly, however I still can't perform the root, I always used the kingo root, and always worked, but not this time I tested other software and apk's, none managed to finish the process. It bothers me a lot because my smartphone has android 4.4.4 and has access to the sd card only for apps, system that gets in the way too much. Well, is that there is still a solution for this problem? Grateful in advance!! :laugh:
I own a BLU Pure XL, installed the custom CM12 rom to try out and I forgot to backup. I noticed someone uploaded the Stock Rom for 5.1 but for some reason It won't let me download anything from the play store showing it as paused all the time. I have cleared data for all the download apps,play store, and play store services within the apps section and installed a GAPP zip get the same result. The same error occurs with the OTA update saying cannot connect even with access to the internet and the ability to search the app store.
So if anyone has a stock 6.01 version and could upload it I would greatly appropriate it
I have the same problem. Unable to download anything from the play store. Still searching for a solution. Please let me know if you resolve this issue and I will do the same
I'm going through it ,too, thought about flashing Gionee ROM
Bought New Phone
I am not to much of a fan of the phone anyways so bought a BB Priv. If anyone finds a solution please post so I can have a backup phone
OK, I had to utilize the Gionee scatter file and stock ROM in order to get the phone partitioned correctly,
I then took the BLU Scatter file and Stock ROM , boot, and recovery and flashed it afterward. Then did a factory reset. Took updates then rooted, again. You are left with the Gionee splash screen... But that's an easy fix.
Appears that the versions of TWRP posted DO NOT partition the phone correctly and writes a TWRP partition that screws everything up.
I will post links or you can find them yourself in the meantime. They are all on xda mainly on the thread about rooting... Odd thing is. Phone seems to run better than before... I would have left the Gionee ROM up and running if it wasn't 4G only... I'll post links later.
Its been well documented to use the TWRP 2.8 not the 3,0 as it has issues partitioning. there is a whole thread about unbricking where we went into EXTENSIVE depth on this
Hi there.
I have a moto g6 play ,as described in the title. Well, everything was working fine, but I had to wipe a Lineage 16 image, cuz the signal was really bad.
After a wipe, I tried to install a ROM that I don't know if was made for my phone or not, but anyway, I didn't get bricked, since I can load my recovery and fastboot, with no problems. However, I also tried to install other ROM's, that, for sure, are compatible, but I got a message from TWRP, saying my phone is jeter and the rom was made for aljeter. That's so strange, my phone is aljeter and it's stated by CPU-Z and the bootloader.
Anyway, I also cannot install any zip image (I was able to install orange fox, only) and if i extract the image, the twrp just says: "flashing file" for 10-15 seconds, and, when I reboot, always get a bootloop.
I suscessfully installed the stock rom, using a recovery software powered by motorola/lenovo, but that was it... Don't wanna use the stock, but it seems my phone doesn't aceept any custom anymore...
Man, I don't know what to do... please, could someone help me?
I feel sorry for the bad english, that's not my native language...
I was trying to install a new custom rom in my device, and everything went nice until the bootloader unlock. When I was installing TWRP, I had problemas with it because it was asking me a password to decrypt data, and even following some steps I found in websites, this password request never went away, it always came back right after I configured my system normally. So I decided to flash the custom ROM without checking if the password request was gone, and them I tried to install RROS along with gapps, but the problem was that my device, after the wifi config, was restarting by himself. Always in this part, so it kept in this loop. I tried another versions of RROS, another version of gapps, and even another ROM, Pixel Experience, but it kept the same way, with the same loop. Can anyone help me? I´m desperate. My cellphone is s Moto g5s plus, 3GB of ram, 64 bits processor. If necessar, I can post videos along with it.
Re-flash phone's Stock ROM.
