[Q][Kernel][i9023] Help : flashing kernel killed my phone

Hello everybody,
Before telling you about my issue, i should mention that i am a complete newbie regarding flashing kernels. This was my first try, and it didn't work out too well.
I needed to test the USB OTG/Host Functionality for a project at work, and i read that it was possible to enable it on the Nexus S by flashing a custom kernel (kernel_usbhost_build5_icsnexuss from sztupy). It's probably worth mentioning that prior to this i updated the phone to Android 4.0.3.
So i started this morning by rooting it, unlocking the bootloader and installing CWM.
At that point i realized that the recovery mode wasn't accessible : the graphics of the droid with an open belly appears for half a second, and then it gives me the black screen treatment for about a minute before rebooting.
However since there are other ways to flash kernels, i figured i could do without recovery so i didn't look more into it.
I then flashed the kernel using fastboot with this command :
Code:
C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\tools>fastboot flash:raw boot H:\data\Downloads\kernel_usbhost_build5_icsnexuss\kernel\zImage
creating boot image...
creating boot image - 3446784 bytes
sending 'boot' (3366 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.422s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 0.500s]
finished. total time: 0.922s
From the trace i figured that all went well, but when i reboot it stays blocked on the splash screen with the Google logo. Since then i tried flashing several other kernels, without any success. Also tried to flash an update.zip (both ICS and GB) over fastboot but i get this error :
Code:
C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\tools>fastboot update H:\data\Downloads\upd
ate.zip
archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'
archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'
error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt
So to sum it up i now only have access to the bootloader, without recovery mode.
Before you all jump on me, i know what i did is bad habits (i should have tested the kernel before flashing it), i did it in a hurry without checking i had all sufficient knowledge, and to be honest i would probably have been more careful if was doing it on my personal device.
Truth is now i'm really desperate because i turned my company issued phone into a brick and don't have the slightest idea what to do about it...
Is there any guru out there who knows how i could get out of this ?
Thanks a lot !

Download clockworkmod recovery and use fastboot to flash it.
Fastboot flash recovery yourfilename.img
Enter recovery and mounts and storage and mount USB storage
Transfer the kernel you want to your SD card. The one you flashes isn't a kernel I'm almost sure.
Try a different one.
Then transfer a rom to your SD card.
Factory reset/full wipe, then go to mounts and storage and format everything except your sdcard.
DO NOT FORMAT YOUR SD CARD!!!
Once that is done go to install zip from sdcard and flash the rom and then the kernel and reboot. Should be fine then. Keep me posted.

The image you need would be this ClockworkMod img. Save it somewhere, cd to the sdk/platform-tools/ directory and then do:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/saved/file/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img
Just drag and drop the file in your terminal, after typing the space after "recovery".
Furthermore, what nodstuff said.

Ha ha oops! Forgot that part!
I usually just cd to the one where I have recovery saved!

Thanks a lot for answering so quickly !
I'll give it a try on Monday, let you know how it goes.

Election Day said:
Yes, you can also do that, of course. In that case you'd have to provide the full path for fastboot. Or maybe you don't have to on Windows? I don't really use that operating system to be honest.
In that case it would be something like:
Code:
C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\tools\fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img
Looking at OP's quotes that is probably the most logical way in this case, you're right.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No I just cd to downloads (where recovery file would be) in terminal, type: fastboot flash recovery xxxxxx img
And that's it.
I set the path to fast boot and adb in environmental variables in device manager.
Maybe that's why.

..

Just tried out your tips, worked like a charm !
However I had to wipe everything twice before it would let me update to 4.0.3, I would get this weird error :
file_getprop: failed to stat "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory
Anyway now I'm back on ICS and, following your advice, i found another kernel to flash : Matr1x. No problem with this one, now I can test USB OTG.
Thanks again, you guys rule !

after using factory rest in the system settings menu,I found my device not starting.then I went into the cwm,i found that i could not mount /data or do anything else to the data folder.it looks like the /data folder has gone...
then i went to the fastboot menu,and did the following commands:

then i went to the cwm menu,the /system folder could not be mounting,either.
I wonder if there are raw image,just like system.img or data img could do solve the problem.I reflashed the bootloader but it's still not mailfunctioning.do i have to flash the pit partition file or sth else?

Now I know,it's because of the goddamn CWM in the development ,that's a dangerous thing and not perfect at all,could do harm to our devices.

Yes, this is the price we pay when we mess with things. Although, if the Dev "doesn't" own the specific device, it would be better to at least have "1" laboratory rat to test the recovery before putting it public.
Would have avoided a lot of bricked tabs.
Oh well, Acer Service Center.....
Hopefully, I can get with one of the recovery devs from the 500 forums, and maybe (if and when I get my tab back) we can work on a functioning recovery. Would also be nice to have a better bootloader with full fastboot from the start.

If you find a stock recovery for the A700, let me know! I flashed the CWMR on my A700, but I haven't used CWMR on it (thankfully), and I want to get the stock recovery back to make sure no issues pop up. Thanks in advance!

edit this file in the update package updater-script
delete the first and the third comand.then bring it back to replace the orginal file of the update package.
then reflash.
and everything goes back.u need to reroot.

Can those with A700 units, especially ones that partially bricked, run the following from a command line?
Code:
cat /sys/class/block/mmcblk0/device/name
And then
Code:
cat /sys/class/block/mmcblk0/device/cid
Or run Chainfire's "Got Brickbug" app from the Galaxy Note forums?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1693704
These symptoms sound a lot like "Samsung Superbrick". While this isn't a Samsung device, Samsung ships their flash chips to many companies other than Samsung. For example, about half of Kindle Fires manufactured have defective M8G2FA chips.

Hi

That is an unknown chip, HOWEVER it is a Samsung chip. Is your device a 32GB by any chance?
M8G2FA = 8GB
MAG4FA = 16GB
MBG8FA = ???
fwrev is 0x21, which is also unknown - but most likely all A700 units have the same fwrev. Not all may have Samsung chips.
Bad news: Anyone who suffered damage is hosed. This damage is unrepairable.
Good news: It is possible to protect against damage. If recovery is built with BOARD_SUPPRESS_EMMC_WIPE it will be safe, although you need to be careful about update-zips in firmware releases that can still do damage even with a safe recovery.
It is also possible to render a kernel safe if you have kernel source code by removing MMC_CAP_ERASE from the relevant driver in drivers/mmc/host/ - For example on Samsung Exynos based phones it is mshci.c, on Qualcomm-based ones it is msm_sdcc.c - not sure about these Acers.

Yep it is a 32G
I forgot to mention i am not affected as I didn't wipe or flash anything after installing CWM.
I guess i'm gonna stick on this stock rom for a while.
By the way thanks for looking at this issues I've been reading the great work you did for the Galaxy Note !

Thanks for this important info. I also have 32G in my tab. It is running on stock 1.055 (EMEA_DE), has CWM 6.0.1.0 from pawitp and is not rooted yet. I also didn't mess around so my tab is not bricked. I followed (and read ) your link to Chainfire's Brickbug (didn't install it) and also followed his link about the backround and used the cat-command from there (without su). Got this result
Code:
[email protected]:/sys/class/block/mmcblk0/device $ cat name hwrev fwrev manfid oemi
d date type serial cid
MBG8FA
0x0
0x0
0x000015
0x0100
10/2011
MMC
0x180690d8
1501004d424738464121180690d8ae00
As you can see, same chip but different cid and fwrev. My A700 was manufactured in June 2012 (may be of interest).

lsnc used the older ZeroNull CWM for erasing which is why he had the issues with factory resets, the new CWM 6.0.1.0 doesn't have these problems !

The next builds of CM and recovery will no longer send the problematic erase command to the mmc and should be more safe.

Unfortunately, it's intended to prevent new devices from being bricked, not rescue old devices. And I want to focus on the devices that I do have, some 510 developer can take the kernel/device source I've posted and compile a version for A510.

I have no way, so i install the new A700 CWM 6.01.1, luckily that i can enter it, but the screen become very abnormal.
I chose to install update.zip, then i saw a abnormal picture and no progress bar. I wait for 10 minutes but it only hang there.
Then i chose to factory reset, 'cos i can't c any progress text, so i didn't know what happened, but it back to munue after a while.
If the factory reset success, my bricked A510 maybe work! ( the 5.8.5 CWM kill my tab when i use the factory reset )
so i reboot my device but it also hang in 'iconia tab' Logo :crying:
thx anyway!

I'd like to note that the first time I did a factory reset from CWM update 1, my Wi-Fi went all wonky. It would scan fine, then would act as if there was little to no signal upon trying to connect. I ended up flashing to EMEA_CUS1 to get everything going again.
Just wanted to let people know.

never a good idea to flash a recovery from a different device...

Requesting assisstance with semi-brick issue.

Hello everyone,
I have unlocked my ASUS TF700T and then attempted to TWRP and a custom ROM. Once I did this, I began having issues. It wouldn't boot. I couldn't restore from TWRP backup. I can't seem to write to the system partition for some reason via fastboot but I seem to be able to do this just fine when in CWM or TWRP. Can anyone suggest what I may try from here? I can only get into recovery via VOL DOWN when booting and then selecting the wipe option. Right now I have two major issues. One is that for the life of me, I have never been able to get fastboot to show the actual serial of the device. It has always shown a single question mark. I have gone as far as building a Linux mint box just to get ADP and FASTBOOT drivers to install correctly on a 32-bit machine with USB 2.0. No luck, save result. My second issue is that I am unable to write to the system partition via fastboot. It gives me a remote () error message on fastboot and a could not process the command error in red on my tablet. I will have the exact error message for you shortly but right now I just wanted to get this posted. Any suggestions?
I can't flash the stock blob via fastboot and I can't seem to install a custom ROM via TWRP or CWM. Please advise.
I suspect me not being able to use ADB is my biggest problem. I can't see a serial number when I use fastboot devices. I have tried endlessly to get this resolved and I can't get it to change, AT ALL. I have installed google drivers, 32-bit fresh Linux OS, and plenty of utilities to auto install. No luck. If anyone can help with this, I'd appreciate it.
Here are my issues in a nutshell.
1.) I am unable to boot into recovery directly. I have to go into fastboot and select wipe, it then reboots and starts up in the recovery kernel. TWRP simply executes a command and then restarts and CWM actually boots and allows me to use it.
2.) No matter what I've tried, I have not been able to get the serial number to come up via fastboot. It simply shows a single questionmark. I have tried many solutions for this, but nothing changes.
3.) I am not sure but I believe the bootloader may be the problem. I can currently use fastboot but adb does not recognize the device.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! I have tried different version of TWRP and clockwork mod but all seem to have the same result. I also attempted to install another custom rom just for good measure and CWM states that
-Tony

Boy oh boy! Mate, your post is one of the most confusing (and confused) posts I have read in a long time. I think you need to go back to the drawing board, forget everything you think you know and start fresh.
Let's clear some of it up:
1) CWM is a recovery (ClockWorkMod), I think you mean your rom is CM (CyanogenMod)
2) When you boot with Volume Down and Power you are booting into the bootloader, you see the bootloader menu and the tablet is in fastboot mode. The bootloader menu consists of 3 icons (if you are on a 4.2 bootloader):
RCK (recovery),
Android (system),
Wipe Data (stay away - it's a small miracle that you are not hard bricked already if you used this)
Are you saying you don't have those three in the BL menu????
RCK should be flashing and pushing Volume Up should boot you into recovery. There is no way to boot directly into it unless your rom has a modified restart menu.
3) adb and fastboot are two different protocols to connect PC and tablet. You use adb when Android is running, you use fastboot when the tablet is in fastboot mode.
Don't know what you tried to get the correct drivers working, but you probably have to go back to square 1 here too. If you use Windows check in Device Manager if your tablet is recognized at all:
Open Device Manager, boot the tablet int the bootloader and connect it via original USB cable to the PC. Do you see any change in Device Manager?
You left out the most important bits:
What bootloader version are you on?
Which version of TWRP?
How did you install TWRP if you don't have fastboot working?
What CM version are you running?

Thanks for the reply. I'll try and be more concise...
Hello,
First of all, I'd like to say thank you. I am all over the place. I will attempt to be more detailed and concise with my wording. Here are my responses below:

I am familiar with the difference. I have not used nor flashed CyanogenMod. I have indeed installed CWM on recovery and can still do so. I just can't boot into recovery without using the dreded WIPE option on my bootloader. Once I use this, it restarts in CWM and I can use it (still fails to install anything on system though.)

I have 2 options for my bootloader when I boot into it, fastboot(USB Icon) and wipe (I think we all know this one.) That's it. This is part of the reason why I can't get to recovery mode without using the WIPE option. (I stayed away from the wipe optoin for weeks until I was convince there was nothing else to try. Once I tried this, I was able to boot into recover with CWM or TWRP. TWRP however ONLY runs some sort of script and then reboots again. CWM allows me to use it. Hope this makes sense. Please let me know if I should clarify further.

I do not. Since I first installed TWRP, ran a TWRP backup and installed the custom 4.4.2 (I believe) rom I have not seen any other options.

I have gone over multiple times but I am willing to start again. I show ASUS Android Device in Device Manager for Windows 8.1 64-bit. (I have tried flashing many times on Windows 7 32-bit and Linux 32-bit both on USB 2.0. No luck, same issues, same results.

I have no clue how to check the bootloader version without getting into Android. My bootloader doesn't seem to show it on the upper left hand side. Do you know how I can get it?
I have tried TWRP 3.2.1.0, TWRP 2.6.3.2, CWM 6.0.4.7 and Phil's CWM based recovery for the TF700. So far, none have been able to flash a custom ROM again nor the stock rom when I use recovery GUI for them. Please advise.
Also, it seems I am able to write to any partition with fastboot except for system. When I write to the system partition my tablet shows red text on the screen that states "the command flash:system failed 0x170003 or something similar. Fastboot shows a failed: (remote() error after trying to write to the partition. Someone told me my boot loader was the problem, but I have no idea how to change it without using the 'staging' or 'flash system commands.'
I'm not sure if this matters but I thought I'd post it. When I run fastboot -w it fails saying that the file system is not supported. When I run fastboot erase userdata or cache. It seems to work without any issues. Here is a sample of the output I get:
Code:

I have 2 options for my bootloader when I boot into it, fastboot(USB Icon) and wipe (I think we all know this one.) That's it.
I have no clue how to check the bootloader version without getting into Android. My bootloader doesn't seem to show it on the upper left hand side. Do you know how I can get it?

I have tried TWRP 3.2.1.0, TWRP 2.6.3.2, CWM 6.0.4.7 and Phil's CWM based recovery for the TF700. So far, none have been able to flash a custom ROM again nor the stock rom when I use recovery GUI for them.

So you can still flash different recoveries via fastboot and enter them from the bootloader. That means you should also be able to use "adb shell" to connect to your recovery (when it is running). What does the recovery do when you try to flash a ROM?
If adb shell to your recovery works, exit it again and run these commands to assess your situation:
adb shell ls -l /dev/block > devblock.txt
adb shell dmesg > dmesg.txt
adb shell hexdump -C /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 -n 64 > mmcblk0p3.txt
and post the resulting files.

Tony - consider yourself lucky since you caught the attention of two of the best people in this business. Do try to get the info _that was asking for.
I am just trying to clarify things:
Do you remember what stock rom you had before you started this adventure?
It sounds as if you were on pre-JB 4.2 stock rom, then flashed some TWRP version and then a KitKat rom?
If you can flash recoveries, you do have fastboot access to the tablet.
@_that, @sbdags Would it be an option for Tony to flash a CWM recovery that "let him use it" and try to flash sbdags' bootloader/TWRP package?
Tony - don't do anything before you get their advice.

Tony I see that your using a windows PC.. I would highly recommend a Linux Mint OS... There are to many bugs in windows when you are working with low level Android/SoC platforms ....

Hi guys,
I thank you deeply for your time. I have learned so much trying to un-brick this thing, and yet have had no results. I will be putting together my mint box in just an hour or so and then testing/trying your suggestions. Please check back in an hour or two. Cheers.

It usually fails when it tries to write to the system partition. Please refer to the posts above. It tends to show the FAILED (Remote() error after the write command. My tablet also shows an error saying it could not process the command.

I do not recall the stock ROM but I DO KNOW I updated to the latest firmware right after I opened it (Big mistake I know... now.) So, I had no choice but to factory unlcok it with the ASUS TOOL. This was for X-Mas two months ago, so I should be the latest I'd immagine.
I did indeed install a kit kat rom on my first attempt and someone told me I forgot to put the proper bootloader prior and that is why I bricked it. So, I think you are dead on about that but can't confirm.
I do indeed... only problem is that I always get a damn ? for my serial number. I do not believe it has ever shown anything but.... though I didn't check until after I had this problem. I do not recall checking prior to using TWRP to install the kit kat rom zip files.
I will wait. i am very greatful to have help, especially from the top dawgs. xP Cheers!

Your photos show a 9.4.5.x bootloader (and I'm 100% sure about this), which is strange because normally the bootloader is updated together with the stock firmware - so if you updated to the latest firmware, you should also have the latest bootloader (10.6.1.14.x).

Internal memory corrupted ? unable to mount /data /cache

Hi, first of all sorry for my english.
I'm S-off, rooted, using TWRP touch and android 5.0 (from ivanich).
I went out of memory on my internal storage, so I had a pop-up that says lower your storage (my sd card couldn't be mounted). Then i went in recovery to wipe cache and data for it would free some space, but I got theses issue:
mount: failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata at /data: No such device
unmount of /data failed; no such volume
script succeeded: result was [0,200000]
updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:Unable to mount '/data'
...done​
I also tried by advanced wipe> wipe Data and I went stuck on this :
"Formatting Data using make_ext4fs function"​
If i try to reboot on the rom it's bootloop
I tried a few command in the terminal command that I've found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2683787
mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8​
I get this :
filesystem too small for a journal
writing superblocks and lifesystem accounting information : done
This filesystem will be automatically checked every 37 mounts or 180 days, whichever comes first. Use tune2fs -c or -i to override.​
So I have no idea how to fix this I never had this error before and I can't find anything about it, only Odin but correct me if I'm wrong but Odin doesn't work for Sensation ?
Thanks for any help I appreciate

you are facing probably the same issue with others that faced with twrp
those partitions corrupted after using the wipe options
the only thing i can suggest you is to use this solution

So yeah, i've try so many things, and none of them is fixing my problem.
First i've installed 4ext recovery and i had still the same issue, not able to wipe cache or data or factory reset.
I've tried to install adb but it doesn't recognize my phone, even with SDK tools, i can't tell the program what my phone is.
now i've tried to install the RUU (dl the .exe, found the rom.zip, and put on my phone renamed it "PG58IMG.zip" now when i'm on the fastboot it loads the file and then it get stuck at the userdata part....
If i try to boot the normal way i get the black screen with the red triangle and exclamation mark ....
I'm going to keep looking but it's getting harder than expected
(still sorry for my english)

Hmm thanks for this info, I will try to do again all this but on an other computer tomorrow maybe it will work... I hope!

So after hours of trying to repair it, it still doesn't work.
But i've found something that might be intersting.
In recovery 4ext but now I'm twrp so I don't have the exact information again but when I went in storage information, it was written that the internal storage was --mb, and --mb free, so I guess it means that my partition doesn't exist anymore.. Anyway I've found that I'm not the only one with this but I still didn't find any solution to fix it..

I decided to try TWRP yesterday and Im having a similar issue. However when i flash roms I have no issues at all. However i get stuck at the HTC logo forever when i try and boot. I have manually flashed boot.img so that isnt the issue. I even tried doing some mkfs.ext4 executions and i still have the same issue. Im going back to my E63 to see if i can still repair this. However looks like another device is looking likely.
Can anyone tell me if you can run some error logs for when the device is in the boot stage, and by that i mean when the HTC logo so showing? I dont think ADB will work in that mode.

When you try to mount data from recovery does it fail?
Can you tell me which twrp your using? I mean which r stands at the end of the filename?

I'm sorry to say, but that's definitely the brick bug. Only the link rzr86 posted might help you using your phone. Ivanich made twrp builds, which use his kernel and device trees, so we're pretty sure his twrp is not affected by that bug (that just as an info for anyone using the twrp from the official site. So if anyone reads this and is using twrp newer than 2.6 from official site, get ivanich's build).
The problem is that your data partition is corrupt, not the system partition. But you need the data partition, to use any rom, which is now not mountable anymore. So your able to flash roms and get until bootanimation, but without data partition working it won't boot.
@little_lerroyy did you use ivanich's twrp or the one from official site too?

The problem is not caused by twrp, but the faulty device/kernel trees which were used for that image. Unfortunately nobody knows who built these images, nor do we know which sources were used.

Connect phone to pc, boot into recovery, open terminal and type 'adb devices', your device should show.
To try mount data enter 'adb shell mount /data'.
To check structure enter 'adb shell /sbin/e2fsck -n -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p23'.
Maybe this could help?

Follow this link, the process is done in ADB

Just make sure where it says "mmcblk0p37" in step number 10, you put in "mmcblk0p23" which is your data partition, but i doubt you will have much access doing this.

Restoring Mix 3 Partition, Trying to Install Windows 11 Before, Ended in a Mess

Hi
Anyone know how to restore Mix 3 partition?
I followed https://renegade-project.org/#/en/windows/Installation-guide guide to install Window 11 ARM
cp /sdcard/parted /sbin/ && chmod 755 /sbin/parted umount /data && umount /sdcard parted /dev/block/sda rm 17 # remove userdata
mkpart esp fat32 6559MB 7000MB # 441 MB
after removing user data and make esp partition, the console showed some error and I decided to reboot the devices
In the end I can't boot to TWRP anymore and stuck in fastboot
Tried to
Flash TWRP, no partition recovery error
Boot TWRP directly, only ends up in fastboot mode
MiFlash, error misc no such partition
Any help?

Try flashing a stock ROM via Mi flasher.
EDIT: didn't see that you tried that already.

It's not working and I stuck on fastboot mode

if there is a calm solution I just went through this same problem, only you will have to make a flash by EDL

The problem is that today there are not many EDL accounts, so you will have to support yourself with someone who has a tool to do it on telegram. I met a friend called Angeluss from Spain who gives remote support and helps you for 20 euros, the truth got me out of trouble and I didn't keep a paperweight
