gsmarti hard reset... power cut off

I was flashing my gsmarti's ROM this morning... I follow all the steps and it is successfully go into the "flashing environment"... Unfortunately, the process stuck at the beginning... and suddenly, it turn off itself... then, I cant switch on my phone anymore... and I dont even get the static Gigabyte screen as well...
Is there any solution to this?
Thank you!

Do you know where to find the Rom Upgrade Utility for your phone?
If you go to your carrier's website and log into it, do you by any chance have a downloadable file that will restore your phone to its factory settings?
There's also many different GSmart models .. which one do you have?
I looked up Gsmart phones, and their support site has firmware upgrades listed for some of their phones .... see if you're is listed.

Thank for you reply =)
Actually i am using gsmart i (64)... and i have the latest firmware with me...
Because this device is using POCKET GHOST to restore and backup the system...
as i mentioned earlier... my "flashing" process is stuck at the beginnig... so, in my opinion, i think the pocket ghost has been deleted and i cant do the flashing anymore... is it true?

If it run's Windows Mobile ... you should be able to run the RUU at the bootloader screen....
As far as how do you get into the bootloader on your phone ... I have no idea.... on mine, I soft reset while holding the camera button in and keeping the camera button held in until the bootloader screen comes up which looks something like this (note i just randomly found this pic on google images)

Hi... thank you ya...
but i am still stuck in the black screen...
and i cant find any way to access into the bootloader...
i am searching the other sites... and i came across this:
they said if anything goes wrong during "flashing", the ROM will be locked...
is that true?
and one more thing, the bootloader, is it almost same as the bios (cmos) of
our pc?
and for your information... a lot of people are having the same problem...
thx thx... appreciate!! =)

Is this the bootloader?

Yep, that is our bootloader for the Gsmart series. On the i300 its accessed by pressing the red phone, green phone and power buttons at the same time.
If you want to change your ROM then you need to load the new version to your SD card (and I think it needs to be the only contents on the card).

Guide: A50 (Garminfone). How to reset to 10 tries to enter unlock code

I bought a ebay Garminfone (it's my second) and it came with 1 attempt left to enter the code. I've ordered the code, but I wanted better odds than 1 try.
Hold D-Pad left while powering on. Hold D-Pad LEFT until the next line appears:
"Wipe userdata" appears on the screen. It can take a few minutes to run its course.

}
It wipes EVERYTHING off the phone. Just be warned.
I did a Master Clear when it restarted, just for good measure. I have no idea if I needed to or not. I had a T-Mo SIM card (unregistered) to be able to access the Master Clear section. It may work without doing the Master Clear.
But it does reset the counter to 10 tries!
This process may even work on a HARD LOCKED phone that shows 0 attempts left, but I have not had cause to try that. This method wipes everything on the phone and restores it with the hidden/secure recovery image. Hard Lock seems to be a software issue, which can probably be changed with this method.
After I did this, I changed the .update file to the Canadian one for Videotron. The 10 tries stuck!
I am just waiting for my unlock code to give it a try.
I think it's pretty safe to buy used phones that claim not to read the SIM card etc now. Updating the old 1.6 version to 2.1 fixes that. D-Pad left + power fixes almost everything else.
This process should be able to recover from anything except if you've screwed up the bootloader or the hidden recovery image.

Impossible to reinstall a rom after root

Hello guys,
I'm new here, I've read a lot about your different topics and I'm admirative for some level god members with their answers :good: :laugh:
Indeed I'm a dev, but for websites so it's a bit different with phones for me, and I will try to explain as detailed as I can.
I have a samsung SM G965F, bought in Poland (I work here for the moment); And indeed tried to root it for private purposes.
I followed a tutorial; I was on Pie 9 (****tiest ever update for me); from there OEM in DEV tools was activated, and the TWRP was installed.
the phone wasn't root, but I had the TWRP options (when push Volume up+bixby+lock) so thought I'm on the good way, but only after, and there is my mistake, I understood by reading something that I should make faster an operation when enabled the OEM (before it start to delete all my infos) that I should switch to recovery mode (or installation) and if not there was a story with 7 days to wait.
So the phone was just reseted with only memory card datas not deleted, and the phone was working, just the OEM always disabled, and when you select to enable it it says "ok we reboot the phone you will loose all your files etcc..." and anyway after many attempts, it says always the same after the reboots, and never is enabled after. So I tried to install a new rom, and then I thought I had a problem, in the installation it was written "Secure Check Fail : PIT".
So I tried to found the right rom, with the number "6" inside as per this screen :
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then the Secure Check Fail : PIT dissapeared and now its just Fail in Odin.
Also, I tried to reboot normally but it says that there was an error and I need to reinstall with smart view or smart touch, I don't really remember, so I just reinstalled the first TWRP and now the screen of my phone is looping on Samsung, and rebooting.
I'm lost, I spent from 3pm to 4 am yesterday in the internet to found a solution, so my final option is write to ask your help guys.
Hope you can help me, thank you in advance
PS: Sorry for the big picture, there is no acceptance unfortunately for resizing codes, or maybe I just still don't have access to this option cuz I have less than 10 messages, if need delete it or explain me if you need pictures, I did it 10 min ago, even if there is not a lot to do because i'm limited with my phone now

Bootloader error when starting Moto G3

A relative brought me his Moto G3 (XT1542) because it did not turn him on, he told me that the device was being updated and turned it off without knowing that something bad could happen, then he wanted to turn it on and send it to the following screen:
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When "Start" was selected using the power button, the Motorola logo was displayed for a fraction of a second and the following screen appeared:
No matter which option is selected, "Bootloader Log" appears in all.
I have already tried to load the stock firmware but it does not take it, the same error continues.
I already thank you if you can help me solve this, it is already giving me headaches
Sorry for my bad English, I had to translate it because I don't speak that language.

As our phones are old this software may or may not work but give it a try,

did this work? I am stuck at the same problem

This error is indicative that either the ramdisk or kernel is corrupted. However, this is a soft brick and can be restored by using fastboot mode or RSD-Lite to flash an official firmware package to your device. Doing so will restore the device back to a factory stock state (but will not relock the bootloader if it has been unlocked. But, since relocking the bootloader carries no advantage except warranty related advantages, this is of little consequence). Official firmware packages for the Moto G 2015 can be found here https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/osprey/official/
Select the most current package for your variant. There are numerous guides here on XDA for restoring Moto devices using fastboot or RSD-Lite. The best fastboot guide I have seen is @lost101's tutorial & firmware repo here https://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/guide-fastboot-flashing-factory-t3187750
(Official firmware is available at either of the above links. Just choose a link and find the most current build for your device.) @R1ffR4ff's earlier post linking the Lenovo Motorola Smart Assistant should also fully restore your device, and is less complicated than manually flashing an official firmware package. As such, the methods outlined in my post should only be used if the Smart Assistant did not do the trick.

Question Google Wallet - no longer working since recent update on Samsung s22 ultra

After the last firmware update (May 24) Google Wallet payment stopped working.
The same problem someone else encountered based on this post: https://support.google.com/wallet/thread/217891750
Phone without root, bootloader is locked, only changed region a year ago, but I don't think that's the problem.
Does anyone else have similar problems with the stock firmware?

You're missing the MEETS_DEVICE_INTEGRITY label, usually means that the firmware you're on does not have a CTS profile match. Hard to say why, the only thing I can suggest is reflash the factory firmware with a full data wipe.

The problem with the firmware for the SEK region, on 4pda about 15 people have already reported this problem
from this page: https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1043829&st=4080

I had same problem and i do think is SEK region firmware issue.. First go to Play Store and go to Settings and then About and there check is your device certified (mine was suddenly uncertified after last firmware update). So far i manage to fix it by deleting Google play data and cache and Google Play services cache, then you need to go to recovery (turn off device, connect to usb cable then press power and volume up button) and then in recovery you need to clear cache and then repair apps and reboot. As i said so far it works for me.
