Need advice on flashing - I keep getting errors - General Questions and Answers

Good day all
i have been trying to flash a phone for a few weeks now with no success i have tried various flashing tools and some dont work at all and others have various errors appearing
currently i am using Qfil as thats been recommeneded a number of times but have had a number of errors with the software and this is the main error i get
11:37:47: INFO: File system.img is a sparse file, being split up into 7943 separate XML tags

11:37:50: {ERROR: StoreXMLFile:8890 2. Too many XML files in XMLStringTable, max is 8000
and i have tried various versions of the Qfil software from earliest to latest with no luck
until the other day i googled the error mentioned above and i came across a forum that linked to a flashing tool turned out to be Qfil again but on this occastion there was more activity it started the flashing process it appears to me it is flashing the images but seem to stop short of reaching 100% the amount transfered is different for each image it try sending and then errors out and moves onto the next image same thing raches a set percentage then error
i have attached some files a couple of screenshots plus the port trace txt file so hopefully someone can make sense of whats going on
im aware of some phones dont like being flashed with their battery still connected would it be worth cracking open the back cover and try disconnecting it
lastly to rule out any memory problems is there a tool that can read the emmc memory test it and detect any possible bad sectors if there is any issues how to get the flash tool to partition and flash around any bad sectors
many thanks

What is the device model number? What are you trying to flash? Are you trying to flash a stock software or are you trying to flash a custom software?

Thanks for your reply
Am trying to flash a stock firmware .. the mobile phone is an Asus ZenFone 5Q ZC600KL
I just noticed this minute that the error report from Qfil didn't upload I assume either this site doesn't allow txt documents or the size of the file it's to big
It's actually the error report in text file that would be more relevant

Thanks for that
I already have the firmware so am good with that
Reading the instructions I have not tired the first one yet by placing the firmware on memory card but will get a card and try that option ... ( BUT ) by trying to get into recovery mode or factory reset those options don't appear because that was the first thing I tried is getting into that menu for a factory reset but all I can get is CSC fastboot.. will recovery come up if the firmware is on a mem card
Second option I cannot do because the bootloader is locked and I cannot access the developer options or the OEM unlock because the phone is stuck on Logo
It I attempt to flash by fastboot it just says cannot flash in locked state
Will ask the missus for her mem card and try that recovery ootion but not sure if it will go but worth a shot..
But if flashing in EDL mode is my last resort I ideally need to get to the bottom of what's causing errors one error I seen comes up NAK and the rest are not completing the various images system stops at 84% other images at different percentages

Have you tried doing a Google search for the specific error that you were getting?
Where did you download the firmware that you have been trying to flash? If you extract the file that you have, what is inside of it? Do you know if it is an update file that was designed to be flashed via stock recovery or is it an update file that was designed to be flashed via other flash tools? It makes a difference, if it was not designed to be flashed via stock recovery then it will not work. There is a difference between a firmware flash file and a stock recovery flashable update.
Try downloading the file listed in the guide because you can be 100% sure that it will work via the methods discussed in the guide provided that you follow the instructions to the letter. Just make sure to rename the file(the file I'm telling you to download) to "update.zip" or it will not flash.
As for why you are having issues with booting into stock recovery, what methods have you used to try getting into recovery? Does your device have a bootloader menu that gives you options to boot into bootloader mode, recovery mode, etc? Have you try using adb to issue the "adb reboot recovery" command? Can you connect to fastboot and reboot recovery?

Yes did try to Google the errors but seem to be very little information about the errors and what does come up either relates to a different phone or states various things like changing drivers and versions of flash tool
The firmware I got is the exact firmware version I found on the phone I got the firmware version by pulling the version.bin file off of the phone and opening it in a hex program it was rather hard to find the version I can't remember the site I found it on but it all appears to be a complete set of files
In the firmware it has all the image files boot.img system.img and so on also the .elf files needed for Qfil the patch and so on
It also contains the batch files for using fastboot
In fastboot I can detect the phone using fastboot devices command it shows the serial number when executing the flashall command it will start sending data but will then just say cannot flash in locked state
I have tried ADB commands and from what I can remember it doesn't respond even ADB devices command shows nothing I assume because debugging is not enabled
To enter the recovery and or factory reset menu I tried all the combination the hold down of volume down plus power and volume up plus power only thing that appears is the CSC fastboot mode so where I would normally enter into factory reset on other phones using the standard procedure doesn't work on this phone
And I can enter EDL by holding both volume buttons and plugging in usb cable
I would like to post the last errors as I mentioned above that shows an error NAK and where it shows on each image it stops at a fixed percentage for example system.img stops at 84%
Due to the huge amount of data in the text file I can't copy it on here
Unfortunately I can't get a memory card yet stores nearby not got one in 4GB range in stock and due to restrictions can't get into city so am a bit stuck there

Trying different versions of flashtool has been known to solve flashing issues.
As for fastboot saying it can't flash while in locked state. Have you tried connecting to fastboot and then typing the command:
fastboot OEM unlock
Or
fastboot flashing unlock
If those don't work, do a Google search for:
"How to unlock bootloader (your specific model number"
Unlocking bootloader may allow fastboot to flash your file(s). Try flashing the whole file first, if it will not flash all at once, try flashing the .img files one at a time, but, make sure you use the correct command for each individual .img, using the wrong command could flash them in the wrong partition which would then cause a bigger problem to fix.
If your file has a series of .img files in it when you extract it, then the file you have is not the file that is designed to be flashed via stock recovery. That file is not going to work with the methods described in the guide. Stop being stubborn and listen to me, download the update from the guide, download it, download it, download it.
The memory card doesn't necessarily have to be 4GB, it can be any size greater than that, you only need the card as a medium to store the file so that stock recovery can find, access and flash the file.
Not all devices boot into recovery the same way, some have different button combinations and some have a bootloader menu with recovery as one of the options on the list. Unless you have corrupted your recovery partition, you should be able to boot into recovery.
You may have to use "fastboot erase" commands to wipe the cache partition and system partition then try flashing the firmware via fastboot. E.g. "fastboot erase cache" and "fastboot erase system". This may clear out any issues that were interfering with it successfully flashing. Have you tried extracting the file that you have and then flashing each individual file one at a time via fastboot? For exampleq:
fastboot flash system <name of your system.img>
fastboot flash boot <name of your boot.img>
If you attempt to flash your .img files via fastboot, remember to put your file in your fastboot folder on your PC, then extract the various .img files from inside it. Then, with the fastboot folder open in Windows file explorer, hold the shift key then right-click on your mouse, in the menu that pops up, select "open command here".
How did this issue start? What was your original reason for flashing the device? How many different ways have you tried to flash the device and what problems did you encounter with those methods? Depending on what you have tried up to now, you may have corrupted the device to the point that normal flashing methods won't work. You may have to use EDL mode to flash it. Have you found a guide that explains how to flash your specific device using EDL mode?
Please read this post carefully and answer every question I've asked. I'm trying to approach your issue from as many different angles as possible, maybe one of them will lead to a solution.

Hi
thanks for the new tips i will give that erase method a go and flashing the IMG files one by one as you suggested and will update on that either way i think that is the one method i have not tried yet because all the instructions i followed was based either on fastboot and using the flashall command or the Qfil under EDL mode and thinking about it if the old files are still on the phone might be why it wont flash the new ones
you asked how the issue started and reason for flashing well the phone got stuck on the Asus Logo when powering the phone on it would flash up saying powered by android then the asus logo will apear and its stuck there
the next process was to do what i would do with any phone is try to do a recovery / factory reset by using the volume down and power buttons but phone doesnt respond so tried the volume up and power and just brings me into CSC fastboot mode i tried holding volume button down press power and release power when phone vibtates but kept holding volume nothing happened ans then i tried holding both volume buttons plus power no response so either the phone was setup in a way that the recovery options was never there or some how the phone got corrupted i dont know because one minute it was working as normal and next its the Asus logo
tho i should say the phone at times had got a little warm usually because the phone is a bit of a work horse meaning its always being used for video recording and uploading and other work related tasks
all that i have tried has been the fastboot options such as being able to detect the phone via the fastboot devices command and that does bring up the serial number and have tried to use the flashall command per what the instructions said it would appear its doing something then suddenly it will give up the error cannot flashed in lock state oh yes and did run a command that bring up info about the bootloader and it states the bootloader unlocked is set to false
then i have tried the Qfil software and in most cases it had always given errors such as sahara errors and too many XML in string table max was supposed to be 8000 but it was something like 8900
the interesting thing to note is that i had downloaded several firmwares because i was not sure of the exact firmware on the phone so i was left guessing at the selection that was given so i tried working with a more up to date the interesting part about that is when trying in fastboot the error was different compared to the last 2 firmwares i tried the first 3 i tried i would get almost instantly a write protected error where as the last 2 firmwares will bring up the cannot falsh in locked state error so it seems to me the newer versions of the firmware the phone is rejecting where as the last 2 firmwares the phone seems to respond to them and fastboot might accept them if the bootloader is unlocked
back to Qfil i tried researching the various errors that displaed mainly the too many XML in string table and came across a post on XDA regarding Flashone 2.0 it has a Qfil flasher within its folders and i have tried that and that is the one that gave me the most action and that is what i discussed above when it copies over the IMG files it would stop and error at certian percentages such as system.bin 85% another image maybe 20% i will try and copy a snippet of the log on here so you can see for your self and this version of the Qfil was the first time i ever seen the blue progress bar move
in your reply you mentioned about using an update file i assume is where you mentioned the memory card i cant do the memory card option just yet because i cant get access to memor card have to rely on stores near home and dont have in stock size i need i dont want to go out and buy a huge size as i rarely ever use memor cards .. and i do believe one of the firmwares i download was actually an update rather than a folder full of files and because i cannot access any of the options under hardware key on start up im in doubt that accessing the memory card to recover would work anyway
now looking at the website you gave with the instructions i believe the memory card option as mentioned may not work because the volume up plus power puts the phone into CSC fastboot mode only
second option is install via ADB Sideload but the requirements is the phone needs to have its developer options enabled and thats disabled on this phone
as for the question about the bootloader yes have tried those commands you mentioned doesnt work and any research on unlocking bootloader for this model seems to always bring me back to the same options by using the APK file from Asus or the ADB commands
by the way here is the list of firmwares i have tried not sure if the info will help but its here anyway just in case Note the last 2 firmwares are the ones i mentioned above that seems to make the phone respond differently compared to the first ones
Asus_Zenfone_5_Lite_ZC600KL_630_14.0400_1808.057_20180903_CMD

WW__ZC600KL(630)_14.0400.1801.021_20180204_Phone-user
the last firmware on the list is the one i believe is the original version thats installed on the phone as i managed to pull the version.bin off of the device and open the bin file using Hex and this was what i found
4028938�1ASUS_X017D_2���asus/WW_Phone/ASUS_X017D_2:7.1.1/NGI77B/14.0400.1801.021-20180204:user/release-keys���������������������������������������������wt89199-user������������wt89199-user 7.1.1 NGI77B 14.0400.1801.021-20180204 release-keys��������������������WW__ASUS_X017DA_14.0400.1801.021����������������SW_T89199AA1_V021_M10_NF_ASUS_ZC600KL_USR_TEST��������������
here is a quick snippet from the text document of the error that i mentioned about when it stops copying after a certain percentage
this is one of the erorrs i mentioned 12:31:43: DEBUG: Response was 'NAK'

here is an update
have downloaded the firmware from the site you mentioned but i will need to wait till i get a memory card and cannot do the sideloading using ADB as i cannot enable developer options but i did try it anyway and will show the error messages
i also tried the erase command you mentioned i tried the erase on the cache it seemed to have done something rather quickly but did not show any error so then tried to flash the cache image from the firmware folder and did get an error
here is the errors for both adb and fastboot commands note there is 2 errors for the flash part because i did it fastboot flash cache.bin but per your message it said to fastboot flash cache cache.bin
Under ADB commands

as you asked earlier about the files within the firmware folder i have taken a screenshot so you can have a look at whats what it also should show the version details there also
i have also attached a text document (( i hope it shows up on site this time )) this is the log i saved directly from the information under the progress bar in Qfil it shows a lot of errors but i will also show what i was talking about when i mentioned it stops afrer a certain percentage
hope the information given could be helpful
again thanks for your time much appreciated

The command to flash your cache.bin is:
fastboot flash cache cache.bin
Fastboot commands to flash .img/.bin files to their proper partitions work like this:
fastboot flash <name of partition> <name of .img/.bin>
For example, to flash system.img:
fastboot flash system system.img
Do you see how it says "fastboot flash system" and then it says "system.img"? Do you see how it says "fastboot flash"(this tells fastboot that you want to flash a file), then it says "system"(this tells fastboot which physical partition you want to flash a file to), then it says "system.img"(this tells fastboot which file you want to flash to the specified partition)? You are telling fastboot that you want to flash "this" partition with "that" file.
To flash recovery:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Again, the action that you want fastboot to perform(fastboot flash) followed by the name of the partition(recovery) followed by the name of the file that you want to flash to that partition(recovery.img)
A bit overdefined but I hope this helps you understand the structure or syntax required for fastboot flash commands.
To post your .txt file, upload it to hosting site of some kind and then post a link to it here then it can be viewed here.
Also, just to be sure, place your files inside your fastboot folder on your PC, then, when you open a command window, do it by going to the fastboot folder in Windows file explorer, then, with the mouse pointer somewhere in the empty field of that folder, hold the shift key and then right click, on that menu that pops up, select "open command here", then try the commands. This "might" fix the unknown file error because it bypasses the need for a file path in your commands and flashes files located in the fastboot folder by default without having a path name in the commands, you don't have to tell it to look for the file in fastboot folder, it does it automatically if the file is located in that folder.
Other than what I have told you so far, I think I might agree with you that you may not get anything to work with the bootloader being locked and USB debugging not being enabled. You may have to resort to EDL flashing methods, it is more of a "brute force" flashing method as it bypasses the bootloader.

The command to flash your cache.bin is:
fastboot flash cache cache.bin
Fastboot commands to flash .img/.bin files to their proper partitions work like this:
fastboot flash <name of partition> <name of .img/.bin>
For example, to flash system.img:
fastboot flash system system.img
Do you see how it says "fastboot flash system" and then it says "system.img"? Do you see how it says "fastboot flash"(this tells fastboot that you want to flash a file), then it says "system"(this tells fastboot which physical partition you want to flash a file to), then it says "system.img"(this tells fastboot which file you want to flash to the specified partition)? You are telling fastboot that you want to flash "this" partition with "that" file.
To flash recovery:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Again, the action that you want fastboot to perform(fastboot flash) followed by the name of the partition(recovery) followed by the name of the file that you want to flash to that partition(recovery.img)
A bit overdefined but I hope this helps you understand the structure or syntax required for fastboot flash commands.
To post your .txt file, upload it to hosting site of some kind and then post a link to it here then it can be viewed here.
Also, just to be sure, place your files inside your fastboot folder on your PC, then, when you open a command window, do it by going to the fastboot folder in Windows file explorer, then, with the mouse pointer somewhere in the empty field of that folder, hold the shift key and then right click, on that menu that pops up, select "open command here", then try the commands.

ok here is the latest
i tried the flashing of files again as i realised my mistake yesterday was using the extention .bin when it should of been .img i think the word bin got stuck in my brain because of the Qfil software as i access it from Bin folder haha
anyway i did the fastboot earse cache command and seemed ok
and then attempted to flash the cache.img file using fastboot flash cache cache.img and i got error
C:\Users\Me\Desktop\flashing folder>fastboot flash cache cache.img
Sending 'cache' (6400 KB) OKAY [ 0.265s]
Writing 'cache' FAILED (remote: 'Error flashing partition : Write Protected')

Yep, that data shows the bootloader is definitely locked, I don't have anything else to offer for advice in the scenario you are in as I'm not familiar enough with your model number or hardware architecture. I'd probably get you stuck in worse position from here on. As far as I can tell since I started helping, you haven't really done anything except erase the cache.img, that shouldn't be too complicated to straighten out if you can get the firmware to flash. I don't understand why the firmware won't flash, if it is the exact same version that was already on the device, it seems like it should flash without having to unlock the bootloader. It may be due to USB debugging not being enabled instead of it being an issue with the bootloader being locked.
EDL seems to be your only option from here going forward, I doubt anything else will, its virtually your last and only shot.

yes does seem the bootloader or something to do with debugging is a possible issue
i have tried to use Qfil as mentioned before but that always kept throwing up errors and also has been a mix bag of activity also most of the versions of Qfil i tried never did anything other than throwing up an error almost instantly
but i did download a package named flashone and as mentioned before gave the most activity by actually trasnfering images and progress bar moving i think the progrss bar stopped at 85% with images stopping at random percentages but all in all that was more activity than it ever did before using Qflash so something is amiss somewhere
and it took me a while to figure out the exact firmware that was on the phone luckily i used San mobile Qualcomm tool and i pulled files off of the phone and looked in the version image using a hex tool and found the exact firmware
have even tried using san mobile tool to flash over the images but get an error
there is a suggestion it may be a hardware issue the fact that i can pull data off of the phone suggests its not a read problem
but to rule out any hardware issues do you know of any tools i can run a memory test look for bad sectors on the phone memory if any a way to partition around them
but i do thank you for all your assisance on this it has been very much appreciated

[Q] How to unlock bootloader with no boot on original everything???

Hi all,
So I have my firends TF300 or TF300T that does not boot. It hangs on the Asus splash screen but I can go into the recovery mode.
This tablet went ahead and messed up on its own, no flashing or unrooting attempted :/
So, now I cant get the boot unlock from Asus, so I cant flash a new recovery or rom... is there anyway to get around this??
I can connect to USB mode from the recovery, but the android and RCK both stop at "signature match".
When wiping data I get the following error:
Code:
Booting failed
unrecoverable bootloader error (0x00000000)
The reason I dont know the exact model number is because I cant boot and find any information about the tablet
Any help greatly appreciated.
Can you copy stock Asus rom to sd and install it from recovery?

No problem to copy stock to SD, but how would I install from recovery with no CWM and locked bootloader?

You wrote that you can get into recovery. If it is stock Asus rom then original recovery is OK, because stock rom is signed.
Or you can try with ADB or Fastboot.

Thanks for that, I was under the assumption that I couldn't install the stock also!
But Im far from there yet, I just spent many hours trying to install the stock that I downloaded from asus website in various way's. The file I downloaded was:
HTML:
US_epaduser_10_4_2_20_UpdateLauncher
This computer is bought in the US, and this is the exact version nr that they describe in the recovery.
Fastboot lists the device and now I've tried 2 different computers and different usb ports with:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob
And it erases the system and say's that its going to write the system... but thats it. After a long time of waiting (many times), I eventually unplug and get an error:
FAILED (data transfer failure (Too many links))
I also tried copying the file to the SD card (two of them) both with and without renaming it "epad_update.zip" but that gives me a dead (lying) android with a triangle above the belly...
Then sometimes when trying to flash with fastboot I start getting the error:
HTML:
load_file: could not allocate 818942949 bytes
error: cannot load 'blob': Not enough space
But I found a way to get rid of that by: "flashboot update US_epad-user-10.4.2.20_2.zip" which gives an error but allows me to flash again.
I was thinking the cord might be the problem but then why wouldn't the SD card method work?
So, I'm confused
You mention ADB? I thought that was only possible if I would boot into android?
I just did the "fastboot getvar all" and figured it could possibly help someone to help me, so I'll toss it in here.

I also tried copying the file to the SD card (two of them) both with and without renaming it "epad_update.zip" but that gives me a dead (lying) android with a triangle above the belly...
The above line is bothersome. You don't rename the zip file you unzip once and find another zip which you place on your sdcard and boot into stock recovery, as when you got the red triangle.
Good Luck!

I knew I didn't need to rename it, and I didn't for the first 20 times As that failed, I found this on some forum and gave it a try.
Booting into stock recovery gives you the red triangle? do you mean with a dead android underneath? After a while of the dead android with triangle, it just turns off... I dont get the huge triangle sign like I do on my galaxy... this one has a broken android included. any hints on that?

I just used the red triangle since you were familiar with how to get there. I was hoping your recovery would take over and install the proper zip.
Rename the once unzipped file EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip and try the exact same procedure as before.
Sorry I didn't put these together on the other post. Long week!

Aww, that was promising! I saw the android working for about 3 seconds... then it died again with open belly container and red triangle exclamation mark
Why would renaming it like this make a difference?

I can't say but for me when one doesn't work the other may. Asus has several methods of delivery these are the two which have been used with success in your situation.
Asus also uses dlpkgfile with the zip extension removed for ota updates but they are much smaller files and the updater-script is handled differently. I admit I have not tried to get stock recovery to process them from the bootloader. You can try as you can't get much worse.
Keep an eye on this thread and I'll try to do some searching, going through notes, and thinking and report back if anything else comes up.
I won't be able to do this until 3-10-2013 unless I get a break. Sorry.
I don't have any other methods that can be done with stock recovery and locked bootloader!
I'm sorry.

I'll keep an eye out for sure, actually have been refreshing the page but didn't notice that it went over to second page
Thanks for the reply, I'll also post if I find something, but at this point it seems pretty hopeless... perhaps I'll start another thread since the topic on this one is incorrect now that I know I can flash stock recovery instead of trying to unlock the bootloader, I'll also post the link to the new thread when that happens
Thanks again for your help, if you get any ideas im all ears

Error: CWM does not enter Recovery mode, turn off phone

Hello I did all the procedures to unlock the bootloader, I took notice of warning logo.bin, so q can not install CWM or TRW, the error message Mismatched partition size (recovery), and every time I put q in the recovery screen goes blank or turns black Reboot help me. my android is 4.4.2
First I just want to repeat what you said, to make sure I understand. You followed the instructions to unlock the bootloader. Then you saw the warning screen so you know the unlocked worked. You tried to install a recovery, got a "mismatched partition size" error, and you can't get into your recovery. Is this correct?
The "mismatched partition size" error is normal, and you will get this message even if the new recovery flashes properly. Are you able to get to the bootloader without any problems? From where did you download the recovery that you tried to flash?
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

so I did it all you said, the only thing different foia message on boot that the phone was unlocked with the bootloader, you know that warning?
Dai to remove this message from the unlocked bootloader, flash the logo.bin file to go back to the original boot animation from motorola, I think that the bootloader is still unlocked ...
I grab the file from CWM downloaded here XDA same, this message of "Mismatched partition size (recovery)".
Ta many say that this message is normal, it happens that I put in the recovery squeeze the power button and the phone gets the black screen, and not everything goes back even after 2 minutes.
I believe that it shuts down, a version ai step before CWM, of the mismatched message ... however I enter recovery, and he does not turn off, just restarts ...
I mean I can not even get into recovery, and therefore can not make root .
Got the point? if you want to put the names of the files I tried to flash.
Here is a program that will help you install the recovery. USB debugging should be turned on on your phone, and you should be booted into the system. Also be sure that the proper USB drivers are installed on your computer.

Here is the latest version of TWRP.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2561757
Here is the latest version of PhilZ. It is a modified version of CWM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2639583
Choose one of the recoveries listed above and install with the tool. If you flash the recovery in this way, I think it will work for you. As always, read everything carefully. Know the type of Moto G you have and be sure to choose the right files.
this is complicated again tried to do what was already done with the files that I step, and the Moto tool aio tool and also via adb, and he clicking recovery restarts, do not know what to do more lost. I made a video and played on youtube showing the process, and what happens there happened to all types of file recovery and point out that the latter (philz_touch_6.13.2-xt1033.zip).
In the video also has all specifications. Please help me
So after you select and activate recovery and you see the Motorola logo, it boots into the normal system? You have the 8GB dual-sim Brazil/India/Malaysia version? This is not a Google Play Edition? Does the box it came in say "XT1033"?
The PhilZ you chose is not the latest version. They use a unified build now, which should work on all types of Moto G. It is here: http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/falcon//philz_touch_6.26.6-falcon.zip That one is worth a try. Your TWRP version is correct, though, so I don't know why that didn't work.
Your USB connection seems to be working fine, and you have tried ADB and the AIO tool. Have you tried using fastboot from the bootloader? The command would be "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and you would do this while you are in the bootloader. You should still expect to see the partition size mismatch error.
If that fails we can try flashing everything back to stock and start fresh. Please use "fastboot getvar all" and post the results (you can remove IMEI, Serial Number, and other private information). This will tell us which stock to use.

Guys, I have just discovered how to enter recovery... In fastboot mode press vol-down (this selects recovery option) and then vol-up. It goes into recovery. Tested with latest philz. I tried million of times but I expected power button to choose options... Is it normal behavior?
Sent from my XT1032 using xda app-developers app
Bro, try this method.
1.Download the Android SDK
2.Download the recovery you want (I used CWM but TWRP works aswell)
3.Go to Your SDK directory then go to \adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140321\sdk\platform-tools\
4.Inside you will find adb, fast boot stuff like that, now put your recovery inside there and rename it to recovery.img
5.Reboot into fasboot mode (power off + Vol- )
6.Go to your platform-tools folder, now hold Shift + press Right click, and select open command window here.
7. Type in:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
8.When that is complete reboot into recovery via the fastboot menu (Volume - then Volume + to select).
I hope this works, i had this problem before so now i just do this and i dont use the MotoTool AIO.
Wow, so much activity. Let's get this sorted.
sinkadorable: The command for rebooting into recovery is "fastboot reboot-recovery". Without the dash, nothing happens. That's what your log describes. You can use "adb reboot recovery" to enter recovery if you are fully booted into the system.
Routerm4N: For privacy you may want to edit your post to remove the lines labeled "imei" and "serialno". These can be used to uniquely identify your phone. So you tried flashing the file I liked in my last post and were unsuccessful? I don't have a copy of you ROM you are currently using, but it looks like this stock ROM is compatable with your phone. http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=14&file=130 Are you on Android 4.3 or 4.4? The ROM I linked will take you back to 4.3, but you can always use OTA updates to get back again later. Here are the instructions for flashing stock firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219 It is a bit of an involved process. Only do this if you have exhausted your other options.
fabus: Yes, it is unintuitive that the "up" button activates the selected option. However, it says on the bootloader screen that this is how it works. They probably wanted to reserve the power button for powering the device on and off.

This is true. I was saying you can use adb if you happen to be fully booted into the system.

Hey i am having the same problem
anyone got any solution.
please update it.

Messed up installing 5.1.11. now only fastboot boots and can't boot twrp image.

i tried to install the newest 5.1.11 in full ( as i am magisk rooted, twrp installed, and bootloader unlocked). i kept getting system ui crashes over and over and eventually, after so many, the phone just powers down by itself. I had tried clearing cache after going back into twrp. Rebooted. Same ui issue. Then i decided to restore a backup in twrp i had made a few weeks ago stored on internal memory. This was a bad idea. It said it restored successfully but upon reboot, i only get fastboot now. i think it is communicating with fastboot but when i try to fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0 (or 3.2.2-0) i get, "remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error". I do not know what to do and am hoping you guys can figure out how to fix this. Any attempt to enter recovery via buttons results in fastboot booting. restart is also fastboot.

no, but if you can't even boot to TWRP then you have nothing left to save at this point.
Try booting the latest twrp (3.2.3.0) before giving up and wiping. If you can get to fastboot, you're not bricked.

thanks for the suggestions but no dice.
According to your first posting, the phone knows that the boot partition on both your slots are a mess and can't load - you need the fastboot rom to make the phone start over and try again. Sorry buddy - I would like to save your data but it doesn't seem feasible at this point.

So as it turns out that method worked using the bat file flash all fastboot. Though, not at first. When it first rebooted after the bat file finished flashing. system UI was still crashing. When you initially run the bat file at the beginning, it asks if you want to delete your data. First time around i said no, just to see what it would do. Well it booted, but kept getting that system ui crash that I had in the beginning of all this mess. I rebooted and this time chose to erase data and then it re-flashed all again (same bat file). Turns out, when it booted, same deal, system UI crash. So this time i was looking things up while the crashes where happening and then it just rebooted on its own (as it does with a number of system UI crashes in succession). When it came up it was that Chinese menu (which i assume to be download mode or something). Anyway, i chose English and it's a menu to clear dalvik and cache, system settings reset, and one other i can't remember. i did system settings then dalvik and finally, when i rebooted, it was like it was booting for the first time with no crashes. Only thing i can figure is that setting in the bat file at first launch actually didn't erase user data since when it booted, all my icons where there in the background. doing it "on device" in download mode seems to have worked. I am only adding this information as an f.y.i.. Thanks again for all your help, guys.

Oh, ok. Funny thing is, I had never seen what that looked like as I immediately installed twrp from the time I bought it. Makes sense, though I still wonder why it booted to stock recovery after systemui crashing. Unless it senses the crashes and does that by default to clear system settings and data for a successful boot?

Don't take strictly right but I've done it some time ago on a Snapdragon phone . For this you absolutely need for Motorola One Vision Qfil files and Flashone app for Windows . The whole process is very simple but finding proper Qfil files ROM is a pain in the butt .
If you find these files somehow , anywhere , anytime don't forget to share .

Try the adb command ` fastboot devices` and see if you get a serial number.
I'm also in this same situation. Been looking all around for solutions but all i come across are fixes for qualcom devices. Even all the blankflashing posts are qualcom. My guess is that we need to find software that'll work with exynos chips that isn't samsung. Adb, fastboot and mfastboot commands don't work because in its current state the device is only recognized as "Exynos9610"
I have the same problema. Im trying to follow this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/guide-repair-hard-bricked-devices-t3573865/amp/
My problem is that my computer is Windows 10 and it can't load the Exynos drivers, I hope that you have good look with that. You should try to change the cfg archive to load bootloader.
Found something intresting on "lolinet" today. A "blankflash" for kane.
Could be worth a try for sure, if you're hardbricked.
I have not tried it so I've no idea if this is legit.
The procedure would probably be something like:
Unzip all files.
Install drivers (ImageWriterUSBDriver_1113_00.exe).
Open "Multidownloader_64bit_1.4.1.exe".
Connect device to usb and let multidownloader detect it.
In the "box", browse for the "usbbooting.cfg" that is present in the kane_blankflash and hit start.
My guess is that it's supposed to reboot to fastboot once it's done writing the files so that you can reflash full firmware from fastboot, like it is with blankflash for other moto devices.
Let us know how it goes if anyone tries it.

Anyone can helpme?
Okay, I know the last message here was almost 2 years ago, but I'm just here to confirm, that I've tried this blankflash and indeed, it works.
So I've rewritten both bootloader A and B slots with /dev/zero and tried to reboot. Of course, nothing happened, but the device was detected and booted into fastboot. Everything was working there. Than just flashed bootloader_a and bootloader_b and it booted like nothing happened.

So here you have probably broken UFS (device's internal storage). If the files you try to flash are signed, but you still can't load them, then it means, you have corrupted memory. With this, go to service, they could try to replace UFS chip with another one. From what I can see, your bootloader is locked, so try to unlock it and then flash the firmware, maybe this will work.

​Bootloader Unlocking
And Rooting Guide​DEVICE OVERVIEW:​The Hyundai HYTab Plus (8WB1) is a budget 8" Android tablet manufactured by Hyundai Technology. This particular model relies on WiFi and does not support 4G-LTE data connectivity. (The HYTab Plus (8LB1) model has integrated 4G-LTE support.) This tablet is powered by the Allwinner-A133 chipset with a quad-core Cortex-A53 CPU which clocks at around 1.52 GHz, paired with 2 GB RAM and 32 GB of internal storage. The 8" HD IPS display has a resolution of 1280 x 800 at a 16:10 aspect ratio. For connectivity, this model supports both the WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0 standards. It ships with Android 11 (Go Edition) with the Linux 5.4.99 ACK kernel. The 3500 mAh Li-Ion battery keeps the device powered for about 12 hours on moderate usage, and up to 24 hours on light usage ​DISCLAIMER:
The procedures outlined in this guide involve potentially risky system-level modifications which will most likely void your warranty. Although I have thoroughly tested these procedures on my own device, there is nevertheless an inherent risk of bricking your tablet or otherwise rendering it completely inoperable if these instructions are not closely followed. You are encouraged to fully read this guide PRIOR to initiating the instructions. In any event, by proceeding further, you are assuming sole responsibility for the integrity and operability of your device. I am not responsible or in any way liable in the unfortunate event something goes wrong. Follow the instructions carefully and pay attention to detail; things should go smoothly.
This guide will be outlined in two sections as follows: (1) unlocking the bootloader; and (2) rooting the tablet. Next, I'll go over everything you will need for these tasks.
PREREQUISITES:
Although the following procedures can be carried out using Windows, Mac or Linux, this particular guide will focus on a Windows-based setup. For both sections of this guide, you will need a PC or laptop running on Windows 7/8.1/10/11, the OEM-supplied or a quality equivalent USB-A to micro USB data sync cable, and a Hyundai HYTab Plus 8" tablet -- Model HT8WB1RBK03 Only. If you have not already installed the ADB & Fastboot tools on your computer, along with the proper USB device drivers, follow the steps in the next section; otherwise, you may skip down to the INSTRUCTIONS heading.
ADB & FASTBOOT / USB DRIVERS
For unlocking the bootloader and rooting the tablet, we will be using fastboot mode command lines. As such, it is crucial that the correct USB device drivers & ADB/Fastboot tools are correctly installed on your Windows computer. The simplest and most efficient method I've found is an all-in-one utility called the 15-Second ADB Installer, which configures ADB & Fastboot system-wide, and also installs the universal Google USB device drivers. Download the 15-Second ADB Installer from the link below and save the file on your computer. Right click the file and opt to Run as administrator. Select "Y" when prompted to install ADB & Fastboot. Select "Y" again when prompted to install ADB system-wide. THe ADB & Fastboot tools are now installed on your Windows computer. Next, you will be prompted to instal device drivers. Once again, select "Y." A Device Driver Installation WIzard window will now appear. Click on Next. The Google universal USB device drivers will now be installed. NOTE: if you get a notification dialog warming that the drivers are unsigned, choose the option to install anyway. Now click Finish. It is recommended to reboot your computer at this point to ensure proper configuration of the drivers.
INSTRUCTIONS
A. UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER:
WARNING: UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER TRIGGERS A NATIVE ANDROID SECURITY MECHANISM THAT FORCES THE DEVICE INTO A FACTORY DATA RESET, WHICH COMPLETELY WIPES ALL SAVED MEDIA, FILES, PHOTOS, VIDEOS, APP DATA & SETINGS, ETC., FROM INTERNAL STORAGE. BEFORE PROCEEDING FURTHER, MAKE A BACKUP OF ANY SAVED DATA THAT YOU WISH TO KEEP.
This procedure is a mandatory prerequisite to rooting your device. If you have already unlocked your bootloader prior to finding this guide, you can skip down to the rooting section. Otherwise, let us begin: ​
In your Developer Options menu, ensure that both OEM Unlocking and ADB Debugging are enabled. Connect your tablet to your computer using the OEM-supplied or a quality equivalent USB data sync cable;​
On your PC or laptop, open the File Explorer and select This PC. Double-click on your C drive, then double click again on the folder labeled "adb." Now hold the Shift key and right click anywhere inside the folder. Select the option for a Command Prompt or Power Shell window. Execute this command:
Code:
adb devices
If properly connected, ADB will return an alphanumeric string synonymous with your device serial number. Once a proper connection is confirmed, execute this command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
​
Your tablet will boot into fastboot mode, which will be a black, dimly backlit screen with a green Android graphic in the center. Next, execute this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
Once again, if properly connected, your device serial number followed by "fastboot" will appear in the command window. If the command window does not display your serial number, proceed to the next step. If you are connected properly, however, skip down to Step 6;​
Right click your Windows Start icon and select Device Manager from the menu. Locate your device in the menu. Most likely, it will appear under the Other Devices heading as USB Developer. Right click on your device and select Update driver. Next, select Browse my computer for drivers, then choose the option titled Let me pick from a list... From the next list, select Android Device. Click on Android Bootloader Interface and click on Next. Select Yes on the next dialog box. The correct driver will now be installed on your computer. Return to the Power Shell or Command Window and again execute
Code:
fastboot devices
You should now see your serial number followed by the word "fastboot," indicating that you are properly connected;​
In the command window, execute
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
Follow any on-screen prompts on your tablet display to initiate the unlocking sequence. Once you receive confirmation that unlocking is successful, execute the command
Code:
fastboot reboot
A factory data reset will now be initiated after which your tablet will reboot. It will now be necessary to complete the setup process. Once complete, you must again enable Developer Options and enable USB Debugging from the menu. Your tablet is officially bootloader unlocked (OEM unlocked). ​
B. ROOTING THE TABLET:
I have simplified this step exponentially by providing a pre-rooted boot image. Now that the bootloader is unlocked, attaining root access of the Android OS is as simple as flashing the pre-rooted boot image to the /boot partition. This will install Magisk v24.3 systemless root binaries to your device. ​
Download the Magisk patched boot image from the link below and save it inside the adb directory on the root of your C drive;​
Assuming your device is still synced to your computer from the previous section, reboot into fastboot mode once again by executing the command
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
​
Once again, to ensure proper syncing, execute
Code:
fastboot devices
After verifying proper sync, execute the following commands ​
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
fastboot reboot
Upon reboot, your tablet will be rooted via Magisk v24.3. Once the Android OS boots up, go to your app drawer and open the Magisk app stub icon. You will be prompted to update the Magisk app to the full version, after which Magisk will finish setting up the root environment. That's it -- you are now rooted with Magisk v24.3. NOTE: After rebooting into the Android OS, if you do not see the Magisk app or its stub icon in your app drawer, simply install the latest Magisk app from the official GitHub release page I have linked below and install it on your tablet. Open the app and follow any prompts to complete root setup. ​

V03 Factory Firmware Package​
This method is super simple, everything worked without any stumbling blocks and my tablet now has root, but unfortunately it seems to have broken wifi. I'm unable to turn on wifi or connect to any networks. I've tried tweaking some permissions and turning off battery optimization for the select few system apps responsible for handling wifi connections, but to no avail.
Im gonna try poking around in the patched boot img for any clues and hopefully figure out some kind of fix. If anyone has any advice, suggestions, or fixes I'm unaware of, please improve this thread with your knowledge.

Greetings friend, I'm sorry that I'm just now seeing your post. I need a bit more info regarding your tablet, so I can try to resolve your WiFi issues.
What firmware build was running on your tablet prior to attaining root?
Update: I have a fix for your WiFi issues. Others have also experienced this problem after rooting; the issue is due to an anomaly that occurs during the ramdisk patching process with Magisk. I've manually patched the boot image with Magisk, and fixed the ramdisk error. I will upload this updated patched boot image. Flash it via fastboot mode and your issue should resolve. I have also updated the boot.img.in the DOWNLOADS section above. Thanks for your feedback. Let me know if this resolves your issue. If not, I do have a full factory firmware image for this tablet so that you can flash to full stock and then root again using the new boot image.
Updated Patched Boot.img
@Viva La Android Excuse me for bothering, you don't have the firmware of the tablet right?

Yes I have it now. And you're no bother, friend. Is your model number HT8WB1RBK03? The reason I ask is because there are a couple of different variants to this particular tablet. I have added the link for the factory firmware image in the downloads section above. I will be posting a guide for firmware restoration very soon, using the PhoenixUSB Pro flash tool. Just ensure that your model number matches and, again, you're no bother. That's why I'm here. Feel free to ask if you need something. I'll help if able.

Good morning, thanks for the rom. I don't have the tablet, but I am currently investigating tablet operation with the Allwinner a100/133. I hope you don't mind the answer and thanks for the rom.

No problem at all. Yes the Allwinner A100 & A133 are being used in a number of Android tablets these days. If you need, I have two more firmwares for the A100 -- for the QLink Scepter 8 and the 7" Hyundai HYTab (7WB1). Let me know and I'll get you links.
Hello I have a very similar 10" tablet named SEBBE S23 which has the same a133 chipset and a11 go, i unlocked the bootloader following your steps but can't patch my boot with magisk because I can't find the original firmware of my device anywhere. Do you know if there is any tool or command to extract my boot image directly from the tablet? Thanks, and sorry for off-topic question.

Greetings @Strike X iT. Without a factory firmware image from which to extract your stock boot image, there are a couple of other options -- but these options are somewhat risky and not guaranteed to work. In short, it is possible to end up with a device stuck in a boot loop. The key here is to obtain a boot image from a device with hardware specs that mirror the specs of your device. If you can find a perfect match, this alleviates any risk.
So, first and foremost, boot your tablet into legacy fastboot mode (not FastbootD dynamic fastboot mode). In other words, use the same fastboot mode that you used in my bootloader unlocking instructions. Connect to your PC or laptop, open a command window, and execute this command:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
The command window should yield several lines of info about your device. Post that info here. I will try to find you a matched boot image. The boot image listed in this guide may work to root your tablet, but I need to compare the specs to alleviate any potential risk. I have another tablet with an Allwinner-A133 as well, for which I have factory firmware. So maybe one of the two tablets will match a safe boot image with which you can attain root. Also, open device settings on your tablet, scroll down to About device, tap on the Android version, and find your kernel version. Post that here as well.
Thanks for your support i think could be odher rebrand of this tablet, i've seen plenty of them with similar specs on amazon btw this is the response of fastboot command

I'm guessing by the status bar icons from the screen shot you posted that your tablet is WiFi only, just like the Hyundai tablet in this thread? If so, the boot image in this thread -- which is already patched via Magisk -- should root your tablet. The kernel version on this tablet is also 5.4.99. I foresee no problems with this boot image rooting your tablet, but you know the risks. All I can confirm is that the specs are a match. Your display is larger, but the display drivers are no longer handled directly by the kernel, but by a separate proprietary vendor-specific partition. So the display size difference should not be a problem. At the end of the day, the choice is yours. Good thing about Allwinner tablets is they are almost impossible to hard brick. They have a hardware embedded boot ROM protocol known as FEL mode.
do you have a guide for the hyundai 8lab1 model?. thanks.

Do you mean the 8LB1? The 4G-LTE model of this tablet, correct? In order to root your variant, you will need to obtain a stock boot image for your device. I can reach out to Hyundai Mobile to get your stock firmware, which includes the boot image you need. Open device Settings>About tablet and tap on your Android versIon. Your build number will be displayed. This is what I need to request your firmware from Hyundai.

Thanks. That's exactly what I needed. I will put in a formal request for your firmware with Hyundai Mobile. They are usually pretty quick about getting it for me. As soon as I know something I'll post here with an update.
