Hello,
I have probably bricked my Huawei Vision by rewriting boot image.
However, I can connect* it to PC and it sees my phone as "Huawei Handset" (same with Windows and Linux). But Windows misses its drivers (non-bricked phone worked); Linux seems to work. No OS can connect to it using default (downloaded) ADB, nor Fastboot, nor SoftwareUpdateTool.
Its PCI ID is 12d1:c002.
How could I reflash it? I would prefer the ways without disassembling the phone.
Thanks
----How to boot the phone, so you can connect it to PC:
1. turn off my phone completely (vol up + power for 10 seconds - release power for a seconds and repeat it once again)
2. prepare USB cable, so you can connect it in few seconds
3. hold vol down + power and after ~1s, connect USB cable (still hold vol down)
4. when Huawei logo appears, release both buttons - your phone is connected now

Huawei (u8850) unbricked
I just wanted to relate my experiences in de-bricking this U8850 phone.
I installed 'Apps_2.6.35.7-perf+root+CWM_recovery 5.0.2.8' (firmware.nb0) using SUT to get CWM, and then installed Danile's 4.1.2
Good as far as it goes, but i could not for the life of me reproduce his kernel (my kernels are always unreliable), so after many days of playing, i decided to take the phone back to stock to see if i could reproduce the huawei stock kernel as a base to work on.
The problem was, how do you revert to stock; the phone was no longer recognised by SUT?
So I took a stock .nbo file and extracted the content (some java extractor found with google) in the hope that I could create a CWM flashable zip of the stock firmware.. a bit of research later, and i thought i had got the gist, put boot.img and system.img into a zip with a modified script file, and voila... a bricked phone.
At this point, i had CWM, but if the phone booted, it showed a flash of blue screen (I didn't know these ran windows ), and back to huawei logo. Also I think i had to dismantle to disconnect battery to run CWM, as it's not available just on the volume-up-power restart.
So then I did more research, and came across QPST, Qualcom's tools. It seemed this should know something about the files i had extracted. I could not correlate everything in the extracted fileset with what QPST seemed to expect, but the first challenge was to get QPST and the phone talking. using various drivers, QPST would sometimes see it, sometimes not, but nothing good seemed to be coming from it. I returned to trying to get SUT to work on my brick; again, with some drivers it would connect, but a flash always resulted in Error 4000 - DEVICE_NOT_CONFIGURED.
Then I read somewhere that someone had found a driver change made SUT work, so i investigated drivers more.
What I found was that if i ran up CWM, I got two Huawei devices in XP for which I could not find drivers.
The devices showed up as VID_12D1&PID_1022&MI_00 and VID_12D1&PID_1022&MI_01.
I took the Huawei USB drivers folder, and copied the qcser.inf then changed entries under [QcomSerialPort] to match my VID/PID values.
(the two that had matching MI_ values).
On driver update, I had a serial port, plus something I'd not seen before - a USB storage device which contained the phone's partitions!!!
This certainly seemed promising... so into SUT again, same error 4000...
So the I tried QPST; and yes, it could see the phone. Scared to do anything to brick it further, I thought, ok, try some memory diagnostics.
On running the 'Memory Debug' tool, as soon as I tried to get a list, QPST said 'this phones in diagnostic mode, it must be in download mode to do memory diagnostics', but even better 'Do you want to set it into download mode now?'!!!!!
Yeah! click the button, and I see a screen I've only seen once before (and i don't know why last time), black, with a line added every few seconds... which from all my reading I know is a good sign.
OK, then I closed all QPST apps, and ran SUT.
This time, the firmware flashed no problem. Was a bit worried as boot time is long (but it was effectively 'first ever' boot for the phone).
I hope this helps someone else with this or another Qualcom based phone.
Basic lesson is:
If you see Error 4000, it may be that the phone is in diagnostic mode rather than download mode.
If you don't have drivers, or don't have the right drivers, check you VID and PID, and try putting them into the .inf file
QPST may have a simple use after all... to force a phone into download mode when SUT fails.

it's actually not difficult to remove the battery...
but i read somewhere the 'volume-up + power for five seconds' will hard restart, but re-press power immediately will then turn it off (not tested myself; the back of mine is already off at the moment.)
Anyone here interested in developing a 3.x kernel? seems other phones with msm8255 have successfully got one...
u8850 power off

now i have tried it, and no success.
However, what i have found to work - if your non-boot is actually booting the kernel, but failing to initialise the phone, then you can still use adb with it... I ran adb shell, and then used 'poweroff' to power off my phone, which then meant i could boot into CWM recovery....
i HAVE THE SAME PROBLEME? PLEASE CAN U HELP ME TO SOLVE IT BY GIVING ME DETAILS.
it is working, thank you bro

HOLY GOD! F**K ME!!! I finally did it! THANKS A LOT, BRO! YOU'RE AWESOME!!!
Hi guys I'm a noobie at this Stuff... But I make my Struggle, even trying it
I have a M4tel model SS1060 from Telcel, the phone was Ok, just one day it freezed , I removed the battery and when I put it back to the phone it get sttucked at M4 logo
So, I found at the web that with SPflashtool I could make it boot up correctly again, loading again the correct ROM or FIRMWARE with it:
I was making this procedure on a laptop with Windows 8.1pro 64bits.
1.- I get the firmware from MTK page I found
2.- I installed the mtk VCOM preloader drivers succesfully
3.- Extracted the RAR file of the Firmware.
4.- Opened Flashtool, I selected the respective scatter.txt file for my device, put the icon on "Donwload Only".
5.- I unpluged the battery, and conect it via USB, the program started to send the file . After a few secconds a error ocurred saying that the PMT was wrong. So i Try it again a few times, even with other version of SPflashtool, and different firmwares for the M4 ss1060 (diferent mobile operators ROMs) without good results.
At this point the phone was in the same condition... I could boot it into recovery normaly, but when triyng to boot it up it keeps stucked at M4's Logo.
I found that this issue was supposed to be fixed setting the program on "Firmware Upgrade" instead of "Download Only". So I make the same process changing it to Firmware Upgrade.....
7.- The progam started succesfully, and loaded the file completly with no errors, after eight minutes the "ok " icon" was shown .
I unplugged the phone from the PC, insert the battery and nothing happened ANYTHING. I think that my mistake was to put "Firmware Upgrade".....
The phone keeps OFF I plug the Charger and it does not turns even the screen to Say "I'm Charging" I can't even get it into recovery mode, no logo screens. BUT.... When I plug the USB from the PC to the Phone I see that the Device Manager detects the phone with the Vcom Preloader of Mediatek.
So I tried to load the firmware again with SPflashtool on Download mode, the program send the file correctly, and it takes long as ten minutes showing the "OK" icon. But the phone keeps OFF, it makes nothing....
So I wonder If someone knows what to do, I was thinking on install a custom recovery, having on that the problem may be that I damaged the recovery of my phone making it unaviable to boot up. But I'm not shure, and I haven't found information about it.
I just knows that my phone has a MT6572 Chipset, I wonder if some one knows what to do.
Thanks.
Hi guys, I recently purchased a Homtom HT3 for my mother, when it arrived to me I charged it and checked it out a bit just to make sure everything was fine which it was.
She collected it from me the next day and told me she'd start to use it the day after, she calls me up the next day and tells me there's some problems with it and a few people at her workplace tried to fix it for her to no avail. I pick the phone back up and I notice that everytime I power it on, it gets stuck on the "homtom" logo.
As I don't know too much about fixing phones I only took the following steps before asking for advice here; I went into recovery mode by holding up volume and power button, the android guy with the red triangle appeared so I tapped up + power button to get into the recovery(?) menu. I wiped the phone to factory settings and deleted the cache in there but it hasn't fixed the problem.
I assume I need to flash a firmware or something to potentially fix this, but I'm unable to find an official firmware from doogee/homtom's site for the HT3. I've found a firmware that I downloaded from "chinagadgetsreviews" but I'm a bit weary to try and flash with that rom because it isn't from the manufacturer. (even if I knew how to - the only experience I have is rooting my own phone but that's when I actually had access to a working phone, not one thats stuck on a boot logo).
Sorry for the long post but could anyone guide me in the right direction here? TIA
I'm not opposed to not using official firmware, I think I use cyanogen mod(?) on my own phone. I'd just like the problem fixed in the easiest way possible.
Trying to fix it myself by flashing a rom via SP flash tools but I've ran into another problem which is stopping any kind of progress - the phone isn't detected in Windows, I can't enable usb debugging because I can't get passed the boot loop, I've tried installing the ADB driver manually which didn't seem to work (just said it didn't install correctly and left me with a yellow exclamation mark) and I tried to install it automatically via ADB driver installer but it just throws up an error that the device isn't detected.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello. I bought a Homtom HT3 and next day a done an update with sp flash tool. all gone ok, but phone now wont to turn on. I contact homtom and got all drivers and room to fix it. Now i have a problem , i hit download on flash tool , take off battery + pres volume down + conect phone on usb cable. My computer detect it as USB MTK PORT sp flash tool load only the first red line but not detecting phone info, then after 1 minute i get
s_ft_da_no_response(4001) da didn't send response data to flash tool.
I changed drivers port even to MTK preloader, but i get same error.
NOTE....... All drivers and rom i got original from HOMTOM.
Thanks to all who can help me.
I can show a screenshot if need.
Same here - any solution for this problem?
