[Q] Help Needed_ZTE v967s

Hi Guys,
I have a problem with my ZTE v967s, if you have any advice, I would really appreciate it!.
How did the problem appear:
1. My phone gave me an error that I have insufficient memory (apps had just few hundred MB, 1 GB was "Missing") so I assumed that it is probably a log file which was soaring and cutting my memory)Phone also had problem to start, I had to restart it few times will the android loaded properly (I assumed it was from the insufficient memory)
2. I have tried following:
a. Factory reset -> it didn’t work, It just restarted to phone.
b. Recovery mode - I wasn’t able to get in to it by holding "Vol+" + "Power" (I should have CWM installed, I did it when I had the phone new together with Max Flavor ROM.
c. I tried following tutorial http://kumaravel-s.blogspot.com/2013/09/storage-space-running-out.html (basically deleted data/log_other_mode)
After the deletion of data/log_other_mode, my phone doesn’t load at all. I either freeze on ZTE logo or it gives me error "encryption unsuccessful reset android" (button reset doesn’t react), lately, it just gives me the ZTE logo
What I tried to solve the problem:
Downloaded SPFlashTool backup ROM from Carliv (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393986 ) and I tried to flash it in to my ZTE using SP Flash Tool. First 2 steps (red, purple) went ok, the third one (yellow) freezes on 0% and eventually it gives me error "BROM ERROR : S_DA_SDMMC_WRITE_FAILED (3149)"
Screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Same error when I flash whole ROM or just Recovery.
Drivers should be ok, I followed this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206421
Have somebody had this problem? Do you have some advice what might help?
Thank you!

Nexus 5 Hard Brick

Hey yall,
So just a hour or two ago (as of this thread), I hard-bricked my Nexus 5 and can't get it to power on again. I tried disconnecting the battery and plugging it in again and didn't do the trick. I looked through guides on how to fix it but can't find any guide to fix it. I used Boarddiag but that doesn't recognize the phone (my pc can connect it, but says it's not recognized, prob driver issue) and other software but nothing works. Also when it's plugged in it makes a high pitch sound coming from the top of the phone.
This is really my gf's phone (not actually mine) and tried to put lineageos 18 on it (which i successfully did) and tried using a guide to resize the system partition to install gapps but that bricked the phone.
If anyone could help, that would be great. I want to give the phone back for her to use.

ok so i just figured out a guide to patch the boot partition but is still not booting up. Guide said there was a "fastboot mod" what does that mean? (also i was using a windows 7 vm since windows 10 wasnt detecting it properly)

I know it's been a few days but i figured out how to do it!
You have to: (these are the instructions)
-download the 16GB or 32GB patch file (which ever one is for your phone)
-extract the zip/rar/7z file (if you find one)
-Figure out which COM your phone is and it is in the COM Ports in device manager labeled "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" (or if you're using a vm for this method like vmware it can pop up and show which device you're connecting into the vm)
-On the com port, change it to the specified number and change the device to Nexus5
-highlight AP check, SDRAM test (and change that to level 1) and Restore Device
-press start and then your phone should boot up after everything is done! (you have to find your rom though, since it is not in the patch file)

My Nexus 5 was running at once and suddenly turned off while it was about 80% charged
What do you think is the problem? My phone may also be Hard Brick?

I had mido for a couple of years but nothing like this has ever happened to me. Try flashing in EDL mode or maybe try charging it.

BV4900 Pro systemupdate and brick

Hello everybody!
Yesterday, on 28 of December, I had a massage on my BV4900 pro that a systemupdate is now ready to be installed.
After download of 2,48 GB file the installation went on, the phone started in the next step. On the screen was this white circle and the installation-progress was shown under. After the update was completted, the phone didnt start. The screen ist black. I cannot do anything with it. I tried to flash the firmware or at least the preloader with sp-flash-tool, but cannot. The connection to sp-flash-tool is with 100% but then I see under device-manager is "Media Tek PreLoader USB VCOM (Android)". So the flash-tool does not flash. I tried with volume buttons to stop the battery-loading, but withou sussess. What can I try more to save the phone?
Some more informations: The red LED ist on, when the phone ist connected to pc or power-supply. The phone was rooted. The last android version: 12
And maybe this picture will help:

Just a Hint:
Do not flash preloader! preloader is responsible for preloader mode (which used by SP Flash Tool)
Do not use "Format all + Download" option. Formatting whole emmc will brick device.

Yes, I did it already. Nothing helps.
I spend the second day with this problem and do not come forward.

you already tried another cable and another PC? then probably usb jack is faulty. you shouldn't flash anything via usb then!
I am not the one who told you - you could try other flash tools. do not flash, just try to read back for now...

Somebody else, who maybe has an idea?

I found this discription of the error:
The phone seems always be on. With power button I can only "restart" it. How can I shut it down?
Is there a tool I can use for switch the phone off?
Or maybe cmd-command for shutting down the device on com-port? I cannot find anything in internet. Only with adb. But I have no connection to adb, the phone is over adb not rearchable.

Maybe someone can show me the test point for this smartphone?

Sounds to me, like part of the storage may have suddenly failed or been damaged, causing your device to lock up and after a reboot, triggering this unusual state. Part of the bootloader is likely not getting read or written to properly, so installing fails only after partially writing to the device, and it refuses to boot. You could try a repartition and complete installation - that might also make it worse though. I've seen the blue screen of mild annoyance many times - not sure about the falling android, was there any text? If so, what did it say? The firmware does contain screens for various diffrent panic states, resembling the one you mentioned. I would encourage you to do some more research on those and look for patterns in the way it fails - or doesn't - when flashing other parts of the firmware package. Don't even bother with SmartSwitch - in my experience, it fails at anything the errors tell you to use it for. Also, simple issues like a faulty cable or the wrong firmware can often be overlooked - so make sure those are fine before starting to experiment.
