[Q] Need help unbricking a z787 - ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini

hello everyone
this phone is NOWHERE... i cant believe how few people have this phone in the hacking community.
I've used a guide seen here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCiq21WsFEc
essentially I rooted it in KK successfully. Then I installed TWRP through the twrp app... installed successfully. no error.
Went to reboot, phone does not get past splash. Recovery instantly goes to black (powered off) screen with red LED (tells me the phone is kind of on.. but some serious hardware misunderstanding taking place.)
How can I restore the stock recovery? While it is in this no-display-red-light mode it appears on my computer in DFU... so I know it is possible to still get in there, but I cannot find anything about the stock recovery for this phone.
Can't believe ZTE has little to no support for this phone...

Possible solution
That video seemed to be for the newer model of the zte grand x, thats why its called grand x plus. I had tried it on my phone and it was like stuck in a power up loop, what i did to get out of it is to go into recovery mode by pressing and hold the power button plus the up volume button. One i got in there i just rebooted it. Try that out and see if it works. Im still looking around for a solid root for this phone

Help!!! My Samsung galaxy player is bricked! (i think)

hello, my name is shahrukh and i need some help. i downloaded animmod (from 4shared) and then i donwloaded busybox. then i pressed blur and then it asked me if i want to reboot it. i pressed yes. this is when the problem starts. It turned off and then it turned on half way and then it turned off. it kept doing that and then i just left it for the night. in the morning it was not doing anything. when i held the power button it turned off and on for like two times and then turned off. i cant even start it up so i have no idea what to do.
i don"t know what to do
please help!!!!
Okay, we need details, describe exactly when "halfway on" is. We need your full model number and rom version (if you know it). Have you tried plugging it in to charge? Does it show anything now that you try to boot it? try holding volume up and powering on to enter recovery menu.
details
ok so when it turns on it says samsung. then after like 10 seconds it turns off. it does that for a few times and then it just goes in a black screen. the model number is YP-G7OC/NAW. when i plug it in to charge it goes on and off two times and then off. if it has low battery it just shows the sign. as for the rom i don't think i have any. i just rooted it using superoneclick. if it goes to recovery mode what do i do?
thanks!
(you got me really fired up when i saw the recovery menu!)
If you can get to recovery menu, try a factory reset, and clear cache. I am not sure if there is a recovery rom for your device, you should check samfirmware.com
tried both of them...no luck. and i couldn't find a recovery rom on samfrimware.com.
Your device has capacitive or mechanical home button?
it has a capacitive home button...the usa version

The phone boots in recovery?
If so, I can investigate a little more what's happening.
I'll try to post a return-to-stock image soon... The problem is that mine is cluttered with crap that the zergRush exploit added (it insisted on installing busybox instead of just rooting...)
(I'm not sure, but I think someone else already posted a stock zImage and system image...)
Here is the post about fixing capacitive buttons. A quick search of forum should have found it.

nooooooo!!! you guys have all got it wrong. first of all it doesnt boot in recovery. the only way to get in recovery mode is when it shows the battery sign i hold "up volume"+ power button.and the capaciative button is completely fine. im just stuck in a bootloop (i think) and it has nothing to do with a broken capacitive button! i will try to post a video today to show you guys exactly whats happening.
i kind of had the same problem, one time i thought i had entropy's kernel on and i had CWM well i didn't but i still thought i had so i tried rebooting into recovery using the terminal:
su
reboot recovery
then i turned off and went to this weird recovery menu it had four options, reboot system, apply update from SD card, wipe data partition, and power off and it had a ton of red letters and words saying like, couldn't access data partition or cache partition and couldn't access /data/media, or system, and then i just turned it off because i wouldn't let me choose an option, and then i got stuck in a loop but not during when it says SAMSUNG mine happened during the animation music part that look like fireworks and then SAMSUNG would light up blue then go through it again and 2 more times then go black and i tried flashing the US stock ROM in download mode but still would go through the loop and it doesn't even charge so i got nothing
so did you somehow fix yours? and i never got a recovery menu that showed something about shut down.:confused
Before brick
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
wait....are you asking me those questions? just to tell you im no developer or something. im just a 12 year old who has his galaxy player stuck in a boot loop. you have to make another thread if you have a problem.
sorry!
Ok. : ) You got it wrong. No problem. His case is different from mine. Just wanted to use her Brick in case. Nothing more. good luck.
I resolve my doubts alone. Nothing that Google does not respond. haha
At least before brick.
ok. let me ask google too xD
anyways..anyone have any idea of how to fix this boot loop?
im trying to do the Linux thing by running the ressurector ans the VM windows the forum is posted under development called hard brick recovery for galaxy 5.0
ok.(i have no idea what you are saying...just saying!)

[Q] Samsung S6500 problem

Hi everyone, I have this weird problem with my S6500, or rather my younger brother has.
He tried to put on his S6500 (not D, this phone is with NFC) Cyanogenmod 10.1, after some ups and downs, he finally got it to work, but... camera wasn't working, it was said on the cyanogenmod page to flash with the newest update, he did that, phone worked good... almost, after he was blocking his screen, he couldn't unlock it, because there was some kind of white screen stuff, weirder was the thing, that he could hear all the *clicking* sounds as he was trying to unlock. He had to restart the phone every time after he blocked the screen, so he wanted the phone to function normally and tried to put his stock ROM back again. Well the flashing went well (as Odin showed) but the phone stucked in bootloop.
The phone showed the Orange logo (he is using his original stock rom from Orange Poland, downloaded from sammymobile) and then it quickly changed to Samsung logo, after that the phone vibrates once, and after that it vibrates 3 times really fast and restarts from the Orange logo.
He tried to get into Recovery mode, but coul;dn't (the phone doesn't react to any of the combinations we found - vol+,vol-, home and power and many others), and as I forgot to mention before, after every flash (while the recovery was working) he cleared data in menu of the recovery.
We also tried the different method to boot the phone into recovery mode (put it in Download mode, which works and then instead of going further by pressing vol+ we pressed the down button and held vol+,vol- and home button, but instead of going into recovery the phone booted in weird screen with small letters RAMDUMP MODE (ARM9 mode).
We tried several times to flash new recovery with Odin, but it doesnt work, the PIT file also doesn't work, or can someone provide me with the stock s6500 PIT file as I couldn't find one, because I read in the Polish forum, that screen mentioned before only shows up if there is a SuperUser app in the phone, so we need the PIT file to flush it.
So the problem is after flashing it with numerous cwm and original stock roms we couldn't get it to boot or to get into recovery menu, or get it working.
Also the hardware is all ok, as the phone is almost brand-new ( he got it from the Orange few months ago).
So help plz?
I have the very SAME problem with my S6500D. Same as described above.
Anyone has managed to fix this problem ? I have all needed tools.

[Q] Karbonn A27

After struggling for months, I was finally able to root my Karbonn A27 using Root Master. Soon after rooting, I couldn't resist the urge to install a custom rom.The stock rom was giving me a lot of issues, one of the major problem being the heating issue.
So as a next step, I tried to flash the recovery. I took a chance and flashed the CWMrecovery which was not meant for my device. (The CWM I used was actually meant for Karbonn A21)
As a result of that, I got my phone bricked. (Soft bricked caught on bootloop) Luckily, I am able to put the phone on Fastboot mode though.
To unbrick my phone, I understand that I need to find the stock rom for my device. So that I can re-flash all the images in Fastboot mode. The problem is I am not to find the Stock Rom on the internet. Please let me know if there is any other alternate way to get out of jail.
Notable things:
1) One interested thing, that I would like to share about my phone is that, while booting if I press the "power and up arrow" button together it takes me to weird screen showing hardware information. It does nothing after that, I will have to remove and reinsert the battery to make it boot again.
2) Another thing, after restarting the phone by pressing the power button later if I press the "UP and DOWN" arrow key together. It takes me to another screen which reads "Fastboot" mode displaying options for recovery and factory reset
Please help guyz... I strongly believe xda is the only place in this world that can fix this phone now for me.
:crying: Please help guyz...

[Q] One S Bricked? Won't boot

So I rooted my HTC ONE S (villec2) today, and I wanted to flash a custom rom on it. I got a recovery (turned out to be a bad one, but it worked either way.... I noticed way too late it was made for HTC One M8) I got TWRP 2.7.1.0 and I got it working on my phone. I then backed up the system, and realized I messed up the recovery. In the meantime I got a CM 12.1 img on it and wiped the thing. The wipe removed the old Android system and the CM I downloaded was a bad download. If I go to recovery in the bootloader, it will just do the HTC white screen with "Entering Recovery" and the red warning logo but it won't get anywhere. It's just stuck there. So now, I'm stuck with a device that won't boot normally - just stuck on the white HTC screen, will boot into bootloader, and I want to know if there's a way of accessing the internal storage without being in the operating system. The worst thing is, there's no external SD Card, all just internal... Please god help me. I'm really stressing out about this since it's the only phone I have and if I lose it.... well I'm practically f-ed.... :crying: I know that I messed a few things up really badly and I'm not sure what state the phone is in.
Also just to add, the phone is barely loading up right now. I'm really scared since it's my only phone and it won't even boot normally right now. It's really acting strange, it was on 90% battery but now it might just be dead... i don't know.... someone please help
I honestly think I screwed it up.... All it does now is just a white flash / flicker when I hold the power button (both only power button and vol down) and that's it. I'm really disappointed right now but oh well.... Maybe just because the battery is not charged.... Also been looking around the other threads and looks like a lot of people had the same issue but with 0 replies...

I have no way of trying the stock rom. I cannot access the phone itself because I deleted the OS. There's a weird thing, that if I plug the USB to the computer, it does the connect windows sound but the phone's internal storage is still not accessible.... So as it turns out I can get to the freaking bootloader but then it just turns off with a white flicker a second later.... I have no clue what to do :crying:
try to hook your device with windows and hold the Volume Down and Power
to see if it can detect it

Alright. I slept through the night and now I'm here trying to resolve this again. Status now, is that when I try to boot it up, it just shows a white flicker and won't turn on. no matter if i try to boot in bootloader or normally. The device doesn't appear to be charging when I plug it in because it doesn't show the LED light for charging. I think it's hard bricked. I tried other threads, showing bright light to the proximity sensor, but nothing happened.
//edit// - My bootloader was unlocked, and I was on S-ON (HTC ONE S, S3 villec2) that might change on your phone and might make the process different
So I fixed it. I will leave the tutorial for anyone in the future that might be having the same issue. If you "locked yourself out" of your system, eg. no OS, and broken recovery just plug it into the computer, try somehow getting into bootloader, go into fastboot and plug the usb cable to your computer so you're in Fastboot USB. Then you can flash a recovery on the phone using a fastboot command. I believe it's fastboot flash recovery _filename_. Just google that, there'll be plenty. Then you have the recovery and you're back on track. After that you can get the rom you wanted. Just don't make my mistake, and check if your device is exactly the same as the files you're downloading for it. I messed up there . Anyway, good luck everyone!
t
yea
Happy to hear that u have fixed your phone add "solved " to the title and add a fast tutorial for help purpose

Black screen after Logo[GFive President G9]

Hello guys, I have run into a serious problem here! Please help me out..
I have a GFive President G9 Android running stock Jelly Bean 4.2.1 (ROOTED). I tried to install a boot animation through ROM Toolbox app, when I rebooted it, it didnt show any boot animation and booted straight to the home screen. So I just went into the ROM ToolBox app and restored the bootanimation backup I had created earlier to get the original GFive boot animation back.
However, when I rebooted, my phone showed the GFive Logo, and after it the screen went dark( The screen is backlit but doesnt display anything). It just stops there and doesnt do anything. Ive tried removing the battery but to no avail. For some reason I CAN'T ACCESS the RECOVERY or the DOWNLOAD MODE, as holding the power button and vol up etc still ends up in the same situation - Black backlit screen after logo. The phone isnt in a reboot loop or anything, it just stops at the black screen for eternity.
THE WORST PART, this phone probably has a damaged USB port, since I was previously able to charge it via the PC, but it wasnt detected in the PC. So I CANNOT CONNECT IT TO THE PC.
So is there anyway I could get this phone back alive? Is a factory reset possible? Please help me experts!! :crying:
P.S Custom TWRP is installed, but I cant access it
So there's no expert in this whole forum who has a solution for this? Because no reply means no one has an answer..
Incase theres no way out of this, please mention that.
