[Q] ZTE Grand X Max brick fix? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the Cricket zte grand x max and tried rooting via KingRoot. The phone is running 4.4.2 and it seemed to temp root. Upon every reboot is when I'd get this problem where it'd get stuck on the first startup screen. Only after using Kingroot. I was getting around this problem by going into recovery and hitting "md5 check." Had no idea what it did, but it would allow the phone to boot properly. As of last night I turned the phone off as root was not working. I then went into recovery and pressed md5 check. It will not boot up. It is stuck on the first screen and won't do anything. I went back into recovery and factory reset but still nothing. Can somebody PLEASE help?

Anybody?

I've tried looking for the zip to flash but cant find it. Can I get a link? It's a z787.

Z787 or Z987? Please revise this and letme know. I fix Z987 with the way I told you.

Did this ever get resolved I have a similar issue with a phone I was given and I can't find that file on ZTE's site just the one for a Grand X Plus. I need the z787

Unfortunately there is no OTA zip for the z787 and the only way to fix it is by sending the phone to ZTE and pay 80 bucks

No OS Installed. Stuck In Bootloop. Offering Donation To Helper.

Hey people.
I rooted my ANDROID HTC ONE from T mobile, using a guide I found on here and the all in one toolkit.
I am using TWRP newest 2.5.0.0, I can access the bootloader and recovery, and have been sat here now looking for answers for about 5 hours.
It freezes on the HTC quietly brilliant screen.
Also says that there is no OS installed.
I am looking for help via TEAMVIEWER, or someway to get my phone working.
If you need more information please let me now ASAP so I can give it you.
UPDATE: Okay people I successfully installed the XenonHD ROM and it is now stuck in bootloop i have tried clearing the cache and it doesn't do anything, this is the only ROM that is currently working.
I have searched the net searched the post and still nothing.
I am almost got my phone back guys and am willing to DONATE or repay the favour via modding something through XBOX or whatever I can.

There have been a lot of posts on similar issues. You can "sideload" a ROM via ADB commands from your computer. If you can get into recovery, your phone can be fixed. I haven't done this myself (still stock), but do a search on google or xda on sideloading a ROM from ADB.

Did you clear the cache? Also, I've seen some people have to format the partitions.
EDIT: But formatting does not seem to be needed if you sideloaded successfully.

Sorry, I've not even rooted my phone, and I would not want to use your device as a learning tool. Let me look around and see if I can find a nandroid backup.
EDIT: Nope, I don't see one. Try opening a thread requesting a nandroid back for your recovery.

You have to be careful with No o.s installed .
Normally if u reboot when u see that you'll brick.
Without a o.s you have no bootloader..
I bricked my s3 and had to jtag it when it said no o.s I rebooted and black blank screen nothing.
I've had this happen also when choosing format system and format data /media some reason it botches the boot up .
My only fix was to sideload a rom or wipe factory and restore a nandroid .

No i got a ROM working, the XenonHD.
I am basically I think stuck in a bootloop, I am currently sideloading the ROM again wiped the data and that.
So going to check again inabit.
After all that did you try erasing cache one more time? Maybe through recovery or fastboot?

my recomendation is that you get s -off and supercid asap so next time you run into a similar problem you can just install any ruu(note only do this if your phone has no official ruu) and work it out from there.

What you need to do is this exactly .
Dload a rom on pc reboot recovery on phone first .IMORTANT FIRST FORMAT SYSTEM.
Then when that's done choose factory reset.
Rename the rom to Rom.zip or anything you want but make sure it says.zip
Sometimes sideload won't work if roms not renamed , that's mentioned in another thread about sideloading.
Then sideload the rom
Let it load and install .
When it reboots itl take a while .
I just did this to my HTC one the other day after I got stuck after formating data media .

Yeah my phone is currently working now, but I have no play store nor do I now if my phone is rooted.
I have a custom ROM on it XenonHD. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2290785
That one.
Just currently trying to get to grips on how to work it and that.
I can't download the playstore because it says it is currently installed but it is nowhere to be seen.

[Q] I bricked my alcatel one touch fierce :( !

So i tried tweaking up my build.prop but once i rebooted , it was stuck on the tmbobile screen. I went into the stock recovery and wiped thje whole thing but it nstill wont boot. cwm isnt available for this phone so thats an issue. My only hope was adb sideload. when i try pulling/pushing the build.prop i get error:closed or something about syntax error. I have the update.zip and the backup build.prop but i cant fix. And obviously it was rooted so i cant return it. Is there any software that can fix it ? anything ? thanks:laugh:
Similar problem
I'm experiencing a soft-brick as well, however mine is for trying to replace Roboto-Bold. I've tried sideloading an update.zip to replace the changed fonts but it keeps telling me installation aborted. Is there a Stock Factory Image for the OT Fierce anywhere online?
Bricked mine too trying to install a new recovery. I made a backup before hand but can't flash it because the phone constantly reboots. When I try to enter recovery using the hardware keys I get an option for normal or recovery boot and then the phone begins the reboot loop again. Any Ideas?
Hi Bookg,where You find the update.zip?I am looking for it,but have no luck...My Fierce is locked to unlock(too many bad codes)and I am trying to reset counter.Hard reset does not work so flashing clear firmware is my last hope.Please can You share with me?Thanks a lot forward
I'm able to start my phone up but gets stuck at the metro screen. I can go into the recovery and wipe but it just does the same thing. But if I have a back, I just may have a chance to figure this out

[Q] Will there be any custom Rom for Alcatel One Touch Fierce?

Will there be any custom Rom for Alcatel One Touch Fierce? Just curious...planning to buy that
How did you get recovery for the phone??? I've been looking everywhere for one!!
Sent from my rooted ALCATEL ONE TOUCH Fierce running stock Kernel and ROM. Android version 2.2.2.
Step 1: Turn off your Android phone, and boot it into bootloader or fastboot mode.
Step 2: when in bootloader or fastboot mode, scrolling down to "Recovery" option using volume keys, trackball or optical sensor. Done. Your device will enter Clockwork recovery mode then.
help?
Im actually wondering that myself. i want to install a custom rom, i recently bought the phone and i dont like the default one
pretty sure he's referring to the stock recovery. I am working on hijacking the init and booting to a 2nd init recovery. Keep holding out guys, we'll be running all kinds of sweetness on this phone soon enough.
edit - Aaaand, there's my third "brick"
fixed my brick
Even tho it says not to remove the battery i did. I had no other choice, i tried just about everything. only way i was able to get a sign of life from the phone was by plugging it into a usb. then the led at the top left of the screen would turn on and nothing more. i bricked mine by using motochopper somehow, first it would say the root failed then i tried changing some things and eventually i got a device not found error. i gave up on that method of rooting but the phone was still working. then i found framaroot. i think i used the first exploit and it bricked. i took out the battery VERY carefully, waited 10 seconds(cant be too safe), reinserted the battery, and it rebooted and was rooted. now im just worried it might have not fully rooted. going to do some tinkering and if it bricks ill let you all know.
goodluck
Yeah the battery is super easy to take out without it looking like you messed with it. I have used both bohomir and faramir with no problems. If you're worried about partial root; do a full unroot with superSu, reboot, unroot with framaroot using the original exploit you chose, reboot then reroot.

Same problem with sprint
I am getting the same problem with my sprint htc one max. I tried several times to download it and it would get to about the point and would stop and the image would turn red and stop. I then switched to s-off, was on s-on unlocked to see if I could get it that way and I couldn't I then found the leaked OTA mirror online and tried downloading that and installing it. I then booted into recovery and tried to install it and it failed again but there was a message that " file_getprop: failed to stat "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory" I'm assuming this needs to be put on for it to work, but I don't know how to do that...
Does anyone else know how to do this?

in the end, i restored my pure stock unrooted rom, wipe dat/factory reset, put t6ul recovery back on and lockeded bootloader

you need to remove all trace of the root for it to work. 3 hours of me messing about trying everything proved this method to work.
