Hi,
This is my first rom flashing, and when it came to 96% it stopped, and I got communication error.
After trying several times more the same.
When I start the phone now I only gets to the tricolor picture where it says "upgrade ROM code error please try again"
When I run the Custom RUU again I get the the following error
ERROR (240): FILE OPEN
The upgrade utility can not open the requested file, please check your update utility.
Any good suggesions how to proceede?
btw my phone is an O2 XDA Guide.
try to use bootloader -
1. turn it off. (disconnect from pc, remove battery)
2. insert battery
3. hold volume down and press power
4. you will see tricolor screen
upload new ROM.
As serfer222 suggested, go to bootloader or in other words do a hard reset.
Try this link as FYI.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=IoliteHardReset
bootloader is not a hard reset.
hard reset returns your last flashed ROM to default state, just if you just flashed your device.
bootloader doesn't change anything but allow you to load new ROM even if your previous ROM flashing failed
that's why I suggest to use bootloader.

hi,
i've searched, and am stuck. i tried to flash a new ROM today, but it stopped at 76% and said no connection!?? i've flashed before with no problems many ROMs. I have HardSPL 1.15 mfg installed and everything always worked. Now i'm stuck at 4 color boot screen screen. HardSPL is still there, there is a message at top right saying 'RUUNBH'. I plug USB in and it says 'USB'. I run mtty but can't seem to get any CMD, or even type 'boot' in, no response on app, running on XP?
i'm reeally stuck, and had to come to work, so am worried. can anyone help??
sorry, i am still searching for solution, but please any help appreciated!!
thank you
i will try to check back often, but stuck at work might be problem ..
i got stuck at that boot screen too, but it happened during a boot image change operation. All I had to do was install a new rom.

Don't worry, you just need to get to the bootloader screen and flash again, you may have a corrupted update that may hault everytime. If it doen't work try another ROM.
Hold down power and the camera button while pressing and holding the reset button.
When you see the Boot Loader screen you can release all three.
Plug in your cable if it is not already, wait to make sure the computer installs the device and then run the ROM Update executable you want or ROMUpdateUtility.exe if everything is placed in a folder.
Note: Activesync and Mobile Device Center will not launch in this mode, and if the utility tells you to connect through activesync or Mobile Device Center ignore and continue.
OK thank you my friends, i will try when i get home from work. fingers crossed!!
cheers
thx guys, all sorted
Hi all,
I have searched all over and can't figure out what is my problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have TMO US H2. I've been trying to flash my phone for a few hours to no avail. I have tried to flash a few different ROMs via ActiveSync and I get an error saying it lost connection after it tries to access the bootloader. I then tried to flash it via the SD card, but can't get past the tri color screen, even with a signed ROM.
The tri-color screen shows the following:
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.00.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
Cotulla aHSPL 0x50
Can anyone tell me why I can't seem to get past this screen when trying to flash a ROM?
Sounds like a task for task29. Search for it in this forum, and after you perform it - load a proper rom to your device.
I tried task29 but when it gets to the bootloader it gets stuck on the tricolor screen and says USB at the bottom, just like all the other times I tried to flash it. I get the following error message:
Error [302] - Update Error
The ROM update utility has encountered communication errors during the update process. The program will guide you step-by-step to recover from the errors so you can continue with the update.
What am I doing wrong? I keep seeing this error message every time.
so you can't even load a ROM from the sd card? that eliminates a bad usb.
You put a Rom image on the root of your sd card (usually needs to be 8gb or smaller). You make sure it is named LEOIMG.nbh. While pressing in the reset button (by the battery), you hold down the volume down button. Your phone should go into bootloader (tricolored) momentarily, then switch to a grey screen that asks if you want to update. press power for yes or vol up? for no. You press the red (phone call end button) and it errors? Is this what happens?
many people report the supplied 16gb card doesn't work for flashing.
for usb flashing, enter bootloader manually. wait for serial to become usb, and then run the flash.
im having the same problem. i have hardspl, i falshed a radio 2.07.50 just fine, then i tried flashing the rom via computer, the bootloader screen would not display the grey coloured screen where you 'update image' and it said lost connection on my computer. I then tried the sd card way, LEOIMG.nbh, same result - no grey screen to 'update image'
After factory reset I get "setup wizard has stopped" but I'm not able to flash my rom
Hi all
this is my first post so please be nice to me if I do something wrong.
Ok, where to begin with my long list of problems...
1. I have an Evercoss A28b bought in Indonesia but manufactured in China. It has Mediatek 6972 and SW version is ALPS.JB3.MP.V1.40 (that's what I could find in the phone's factory mode)
2. I rooted it 2 months ago and put all my apps and data on it from my old phone with Titanium Backup. I had some minor problems in the beginning but fixed them all and the phone was running smoothly.
3. This morning I froze "Go Launcher Z" because I didn't like it anymore and wanted to try how my phone looks withour it. Since the moment I froze the app nothing happened. I couldn't access the home screen or the app drawer but only my recently used apps when pressing and holding the home button.
4. I wanted to reboot my phone but it kept booting and booting, saying "android is upgrading" all the time. After one hour I took out the battery and now it's dead.
5. I tried to reset it into factory mode and first it seemed to work because it asked me to do all the settings like language, google account etc. As soon as I was finished a window appeared with "unfortunately setup wizard has stopped" and now I can't even see my homescreen or anything. My screen is black apart from the battery, wifi and SIM icons in the top right corner.
Now, what I tried to do:
1. I googled and found a few solutions saying I should flash my rom. I googled and found the sp flash tool and a rom for my phone.
2. SP Flash Tool did not recognize my phone and there was no scatter file in that ZIP file that I had downloaded.
3. I downloaded MTKdroidtools to try to generate a scatter file from my phone and a lot of different drivers but none of them made my phone connect with DroidTools.
4. So I went back to SP Flash Tool and googled for hours in order to find a scatter file and make my phone connect with SP Flash Tool. I managed to find another rom, this one had a scatter file in it and I also managed somehow to connect my phone with SP Flash Tools. It was only recognized after I had selected the scatter file and pressed the download button though.
5. SP Flash Tools brought an error message saying my pmt has changed and I need a new one or something like that. Unfortunately I can't even re-do this to give you the correct error message because I can not connect my phone to the PC any longer. Everytime I do this with battery or without it keeps connecting and disconnecting all the time.
6. I am at my wits ends and don't know what to do any more.
Please help
Many of us are on custom OS and want to return back to stock Indian OS which was not possible till now. Below posted is a tried and tested method by me as well as my friend @ankan1993.
I assume you are unlocked BL and your device is atleast not bricked.
Please follow this guide step by step to get a stock working device. This is for Honor V10 Indian Version C675 and I'm not responsible for your loss if you make this worst by trying this on other variants/models or if you choose not to follow this guide properly.
I assume you are on Berkley TWRP with the latest version, unmodified one.
Downloads : (Keep both in your fastboot folder in PC)
Stock Recovery : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WEUHRrba1dV3109e7h7b3Hp_aJhy0vM8/view?usp=sharing (stockrec.img)
Stock System Image : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IABtk7HJ9ml6kOpytYHrnT6z3C1_9IfW/view
1. Enter TWRP and go to wipe -> Advanced -> Select system and data, and wipe them.
2. In TWRP, go back and Click Reboot button on main screen and reboot to Bootloader.
3. Connect you device and open cmd_here (open as administrator) from fastboot folder. ( I assume fastboot is installed and working in your system. You can check by the command "fastboot devices" . Device should show there. )
4. Type "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk stockrec.img" (It should complete without error)
5. Once completes, Type "fastboot flash system system.img" (This may show error like "Invalid sparse file format". Ignore that and keep waiting for 10-12 minutes until the system gets flashed completely.)
6. Once it gets completed, disconnect your device and then press Vol up + power, until it screen shows stock recovery.
7. In stock recovery, use factory reset and cache wipe option one by one and then reboot.
Hit thanks if you think it helped :fingers-crossed:
Finally, after days, after being tormented by the bugs of custom Roms we have something to cheer about. Kudos Oreopie! Cheers to the long hours.
Kudo's bro.. appreciate your efforts :good:

Im unable to access bootloader/recovery mode after unlocking bootloader with volume down+power button, used twrp option to reboot to bootloader, but now i flashed stock recovery and this system image, device bootlooped and im unable to access bootloader, i hold the keys but instantly that warning screen comes up, please help..started using android since 2010 with HTC desire HD and never in my life i stepped in service center because those devices were brick proof, looks like honor made me step into service center
didnt work for me, followed exact steps as mentioned above but stock recovery keeps giving error while factory resetting the device, device ends up in bootloop,, this device is crazy, i need to connect my device to pc and then press voldown+ power to access bootloader else it just jumps to warning screen

Obviously warning screen will come up, but at the same moment you have to just leave power button and keep on pressing vol down button, until you get into bootloader mode. It takes time bro and let me tell you one thing, no matter which mode you boot, no matter what ROM it is, once the bootloader is unlocked it implies that the unlocked warning screen will show and then it will be allowed to get into whatever mode you wish.
Try it as I told, be patient and follow the same guide exactly if you do not wish to visit service centre. There is nothing wrong happening with you other than an improper method being followed in haste

Because on custom you are on 8.1 and twrp doesn't support yet.
May be you can try dload the b161 version which is out on firmware finder now.

Invalid sparse error happens when trying to flash .IMG files in Windows system.
It can be easily solved by using Linux system.
thanks for the reply

I was trying to rootkit it, but on the last step I got locked in to a fastboot-loop, I eventually got out of it and was able to "install through ADB" through the OTA Oriole software.
Trying to rootkit it again, I messed up and got stuck on the same loop, but when I try to "install through ADB" the OTA file loads up 50% and I get the error "Current SPL 2021-11-05 Target SPL: 2021-10-05 this is considered a downgrade.
Denying SPL because it's SPL downgrade" and it aborts the installation.
Now whenever I try to boot, I get a "your phone is corrupted" message, I press power to continue, I get a message "your phone security is compromised" in orange, than I press power and it hangs on the Google logo on a white screen.
I can still get in to fastboot and all the options.
No idea what to try next.
If I took it to where I bought it, would they send it off to Google and they can fix it? Or do I have a brand new $1150 paperweight?

When you're in "fastboot" mode, can you still see your device name when you type in fastboot devices?
If so, then you still should be able to fastboot the latest factory image by following one of the outstanding guides by:
@Homeboy76 here.
Or
@V0latyle here.
Best of luck to you.

Your phone isn't bricked until you're completely unable to do anything.
Is your bootloader unlocked?
You should be able to sideload the OTA, as long as you aren't already on the newest firmware. Make sure you use the latest one.
Sideloading the OTA is the only way I know of to fix the corrupted screen; if that doesn't work, you're going to have to perform a whole flash of the factory image, and likely have to wipe. You can do this using the Android Flash Tool, but this requires an unlocked bootloader.
Since you essentially caused this problem yourself, it is likely you would have to pay for repair or RMA. So, let's see if we can help you fix it yourself first.

When you say you were trying to "rootkit it", do you mean you were trying to root it with Magisk? Or some other method? You should only use Magisk if you were trying some other method. I'm assuming you weren't trying to give yourself a virus
In addition to what the others have said, if you go the Android Flash Tool method you have to have OEM unlocking enabled it Developer Options. If you do, the flash tool will unlock your bootloader during the process so you don't have to unlock it manually beforehand. If it is grayed out in the disabled mode, you'll have to sideload the OTA, as stated earlier, or try factory resetting if you can.
Good luck...
I did something to mine where it would be stuck in a loop, wouldnt boot, I was able to get it into download mode, and then I flashed it back to stock from the google factory images website, then rerooted it. Been fine since.
Mine fast softbricked as well like 2 weeks ago.
I used the android flash tool to get back to stock rom again and after that I rooted it again. But you need an unlocked bootloader for that method.
Edit: Link to the flash tool
