Vodafone Smart II / Alcatel V860 recovery problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
About an week ago I bought the Vodafone Smart II, first thing I did was rooting it, so I can remove the apps Vodafone send with it.
After that I saw there was an update. Without thinking I did the update and after that I had no recovery anymore. Goes straight to "Are you sure you wanna delete all files and reformat?" *Not the real message, but something like that.
After searching here I foud a recovery for my device, but after flashing it, there was a new problem. The touch buttons aren't working anymore in the recovery.
Volume buttons are working well for scrolling through the menu items, but I can't select when with the touch home button.
Anyone knows what to do or try?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my grammar

I've same problem here...

I buy 2 vodafone smart II one for me and another one for my girlfrind.

If it doesn't work, flash the system.img, custpack.img and data.img of an original Stock rom, and after that do the update 2 (it will fix the touch buttons)
To regain the recovery and root in Update 2 simply use "fastboot reboot recovery" in adb and inside the recovery do the "update.zip" trick to root it

Thnx

Thnx Bro too much

I bought this phone for my kid. I also can't boot into recovery with buttons. But i did it within "android commander" reboot to recovery option.
No need to flash the old recovery image.

i tried to install the recovery and the soft buttons do not work

Thanks

Go to roeddie.blogspot.ro
On ota update 3 u have a script batch with rom 0.9.8.
Just look at the pictures and read the texts.
I've made a solution to flash for no recovery or with 4 option recovery phones.
Cheers.

fastboot problem
Hi guys,
I am noob not only here in XDA developers but also on Android tweaking, so excuse me if I mess up with terminology.
What I wanted to do is to provide superuser permissions to my device but before that I decided to do some "warm up".
After performing a "reset to defaults" I updated to ΟΤΑ 2.3.7 update 5 and I messed up the bootloader and fastboot functionality, as the OP stated.
From now on, on rebooting and trying to enter recovery (power and +vol) I get the 1st attached screenshot.
I successfully got into recovery menu through pc command line tool (adb reboot recovery), see 2nd screenshot attached. Adb tool works fine, whatever I try using fastboot tool from my pc seems to fail.
Without this I am unable to flash a different recovery on my device, right?
Am I missing something?
Thanks, in advance for any further info.
I am at your disposal for any further detail I could provide.

Does not work for me. The cmd screen just flashes, I could not even read what it shows.

The europa doesn't have a hardware key combination to get into recovery.
You can use adb to get into recovery.
If you have android sdk installed. Open the command prompt and type "adb reboot recovery" without quotes.
Or you can download any other custom recovery like cwm and flash it in Odin.

If you flash cwm recovery us using odin it automatically boots into recovery.
If your on cyanogenmod or any other cm derived rom it'll have an option to reboot into recovery in the power menu.

If you want to reboot recovery from a stock rom or any rom with no recovery reboot option just root the phone and install the terminal app. Then open the terminal and type the following:
su (then hit enter/return on keyboard to get superuser)
reboot recovery (type that and hit enter/return again and the phone will reboot into recovery)
thanks
10x a bunch. you saved me thanks again everyone.

You are in luck my friend I am on the case. Okay this is what you need to do.
Note: Steps 2-6 are needed if something goes wrong with the update.
1.
a. Extract the stock recovery from V20A indian (look at my signature). Hopefully you have the V20A kdz already.
b. Place the extracted recovery (should be labeled "3-recovery.img") into the stock_recovery.zip and flash inside cwm
c. reboot, this will take you into the stock recovery and complete the ota update.
2. Download Lelus Fastboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41768774
3. Install the omap4430 driver twice (in to different locations). This is has to do with fastboot.
Help if you have problems installing the drivers http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44578108&postcount=34
4. Place cwm recovery image (name it "cwm.img") inside here "c:\fastboot\yours"
5. Right click on start.bat and select run as Administrator
6. Select option #1 (fastboot) and issue the following when everything is operation properly.
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
fastboot reboot
not needed you have cwm recovery, actually you will need the above (lol) if the update doesn't go through properly.
I'll add some more info, hold up.

Do you have stock recovery img ?
Extract the stock recovery.img first (from the kdz V20A). This happened while doing an ota update right?
Once you have it, we will continue the process.

LG L9 is totally unbrickable phone and it is told many a times before by me and everyone.
If you keep a cool and follow things in this post and few instructions from others from this post, you can still flash any LG Stock Rom on your phone and recover it.

Can´t reach Recovery

Hi all. Before i start i want to say, i read a lot of threaths and comments before i started to booting recovery and i followed Tutorial that you can find somewhere here on XDA for MotoE.
I unlocked Bootloader correctly and everything was right. Then i downloaded latest version of TWRP and CWM if something will be wrong.
So i booted into bootloader, connected to PC (windows 8.1) and using adb i installed TWRP (by command window). After instalation was complete, i used comand: "fastboot reboot" to get my mobile start normally. Everything worked fine so i started last step. Turned off mobile, booted into bootloader(or maybe fastboot? idk...) and by volumebuttons i choosed "Recovery" . Then a black screen for a minute. After that mobile stuck on screen that i attached down below. So i tried this but with CWM (same process way). But nothing new... Someone said me i had to try "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" but again, nothing happend.
Can you help me guys?
The recovery isn't installed! Reinstall the recovery and follow correct steps!
I tried it one more time. I´m attaching image that is from command window showing that .img was booted ... Strange is, immediately after booting was completed, mobile restarted... and after i turned off mobile again, still i can´t reach recovery. Isn´t that problem in .img file? maybe it´s broken, isn´t it?
Tried once again
Ok last try didnt worked. So i complettly followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/guide-one-moto-e-beginners-guide-t2807891 STEP-BY STEP!
Command window screen attached, Fastboot screen attached.
After reboot, turn off i tried to open recovery and again that image that i posted in first coment. (android figure with words: no command)
By that guide i downloaded recovery from here: https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/condor/
and i downloaded just "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-condor.img" as i have to do it (written in guide)
Well, your recovery is flashing fine from cmd but its not detected by your phone.
Try re-downloading the recovery and check md5 before flashing.
I'll look into it and see if the issue can be pinpointed.
Btw, you might need the flash the stock ROM back if nothing works.

Okay try this.
Flash CWM
If flashing fails or you get any error, then try booting into recovery.
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
If you boot into recovery, flash the SuperSU package.
Reboot and then flash the recovery.
See if it works.

Do not flash CWM, just boot into it by the command I posted above.
Then try and flash SuperSU, (if you get a root prompt from CWM, select NO.)
Reboot device.
Then again boot into fastboot and now flash recovery (twrp).

I said if flash is not successful, then boot into it. So you can't boot into recovery either.
Here's last resort, extract the stock recovery from stock ROM and flash it. Then we'll try flashing TWRP again.
If you don't have stock ROM, download it. as you might need it to recover.

LOL?
OK im in recovery i already flashed superSU...
What did i do?
As you said, i reinstalled all drivers...
then i downloaded same TWRP again (but with mirror source)
I downloaded attached md5 file ( still dont know what should i do with it )
moved recovery and .md5 files into minimal adb and fastboot (both files i renamed to "recovery")
turned off devices
started fastboot
connected to PC
started command window and entered command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
then i didnt wrote sommand "fastboot reboot" as i done before
i just unpluged usb and navigate to recovery button and launched it
and VUALA im in recovery
hurraaa
just installed superSU and then rebooted.
everything works (superSU too)
i have one more question...
i downloaded twrp manager from google play
first start: asked for root permission a allowed it
then message appeard:
"The only compatible version of busybox we support is Stericson. All other cause havoc on all operations in this app. Please click yes to install Stericson busybox"
what the heck is busybox?
+Should i download it or not?
Do not use TWRP Manager, ROM Manager, CWM Manager or any other of these Tools. They often do not really work good together with "exotic" fones. Why the heck do you need TWRP manager? You have TWRP installed
Anyway - Busybox you also can download and install from Playstore. Busybox is a collection of executable terminal commands helpful for any kind of script. There are a couple of rooted apps who will ask for busybox support - so don't hesitate to install busybox - but do it directly with busybox app from playstore.
After you have installed the binaries you can de-install the busybox-app. Because all necessary binaries then are copied into /system/bin/ folder and the app itself only will become active once a new version would be available (but this is not the case very often).
ok then

the problem is not enter into recovery.
the first time i have flash wrong twrp. when i enter in recovery, by hardware procedure, in the bottom of screen i read version of twrp.. and is version twrp 3.0.0r2. this is a wrong version!
then.. i do flash from pc, flash operation success.. and ONLY with command "fastboot boot XXXXX.img" , where xxxx.img is name of recovery i have flash before, i can enter in correct twrp.
i don't know why, but i think i can't flash and fix the correct version of twrp. bhooooooooooo!
edit:
problem solved..
i have rename twrp img file in "recovery.img" and i have flash it in fastboot mode by pc..
i have try to enter in recovery with adbo command (adb reboot recovery) and phone reboot in correct twrp version;
then i have try to enter in recovery with hardware procedure (poweroff, volume up + power and release power when appear Mi logo, tap on "recovery") and it work;
and, in the end, i have try to nter in recovery mode by app "updater"
all works perfectly now!

Now i have rooted redmi 3 with unlocked bootloader but no superSU installed.
I want to install twrp recovery which is official now for redmi 3, i've read about dm-verity thing in our redmi 3 and still confused about it.
Can i just install twrp recovery thru twrp manager app from play store? If yes, can i go into twrp recovery via updater app.?
Thanks in advance.
you can install twrp by fastboot!
and then yes, you can enter in twrp by updater app

Congratulations you just followed the official method of getting root access successfully, root access is not from SuperSU but from MIUI itself, it's in the Security app.
You can, but the phone won't boot anymore then, because of the dm-verity thingy. So in another word, you have to disable it by flashing a modified boot image, I'm not sure but some custom ROM might have come with the modified image already, but MIUI ROM definitely doesn't, it is certain you'd get a boot loop after flashed TWRP and try to boot into Android again. That's the simple explanation. And yes you can go to TWRP from updater app, it's the same thing as writing 'reboot recovery'.

I am unable to flash TWRP using adb

I recently found my old HTC desire 526g and I decided to flash a custom ROM, but its volume buttons aren't working so I had to use adb, I am not really an good in these types of things. I tried to flash TWRP on my htc using adb (Followed a YouTube tut) but this is coming up.
I have attached a screenshot below.
After unlocking bootloader (probably would have done it earlier) did you allow the usb debugging.
2) try installing adb+fastboot, platform tools and your htc drivers and keep your recovery file in the platform tools and open cmd there use the appropriate command to flash it

Hello, Thanks for replying! I think I have done everything in correct manner, but still coming thiss error, I have rooted my phone too. BTW, is there any way you can navigate through system recovery without using volume buttons (as they are not working) I mean any commands, to navigate in recovery mode using adb

So if you're rooted so you can flash recovery via twrp app on playstore, or if magisk installer for twrp exists for your phone or by flashfire if you have your working recovery
'adb reboot bootloader' will bring you fastboot mode.
'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' (while TWRP image or CWM image is renamed recovery.img and placed into the fastboot folder)will bring you TWRP/CWM.
'fastboot reboot recovery' will bring you into TWRP or CWM installed.
'fastboot reboot' will reboot you phone in case you are stuck.

This comes later now lol, Due to my lack of knowledge and not enough patience, I tried to flash custom recovery through TWRP app, and I didn't found my phone model on device list, SO i just selected random htc model phone and now it is restarting over and over again, Is there any fix to this? I am obviously a complete noob in this field.
If possible find stock recovery of that firmware version (be serious abt version) and flash it by fastboot
2) find how to unbrick htc by downloading stock rom this will make you lose all data

Even If I find the this whatever you said, how am I supposed to fix it, as I mentioned,Volume buttons aren;t working and its stuck in bootloop, it won't past its manufacturers logo, so adb is no help in it, Only way to fix it would be to fix sound buttons. sad me, Well, R.I.P.

I hope that this phone is not your primary driver

He unearthed his phone from some drawer, so this is not his daily driver.
