Hi all,
by cons for several weeks I've a concern with my redmi Note 2 and I can't find the answer to my problem on the forum or even the Internet.
Since the last update 7.2.2 (global) I have the Recovery MIUI who crushed the TWRP. I changed to test 6.3.17. The update to the .24 went wrong and I don't know why. Since the phone is bootloop. But the problem is that my phone is not recognized by any PC. I tried several PCs, several cables, several drivers, with or without the Fastboot, unable to connect. Therefore impossible to load a new version. I don't think it's material problem because the phone recharge well with a cable to the socket.
Is there another handling or debug decision to restart the phone? I'm in France for information.
thank you in advance if you can point me to a solution !
Hope someone can help me.
Manu
Can the phone boot to miui recovery? If so, you should be able to use miui recovery to flash TWRP (I think you will need one with a signed install zip). You only need to take out the external SD, put it in one of those cheap USB card readers, copy your recovery and ROM to the SD, put it back in the phone, flash TWRP with miui recovery, and then flash the ROM with TWRP (I am assuming that miui recovery can install things from the external SD - if not, then none of this will work).
Hi Bro,
Yes it boot in MIUI recovery but impossible to get access to the SD Card...
I tried to put the file on the SD card but you can't choose the path, I think the recovery will look only in the internal memory ... And as I can't access the internal memory..
I despair !!
Thanks o lot for your help

Ok - but have you tried the Mediatek SP Flash Tool?
Of course yes but the real problem is that the phone is not recognized by the PC and therefore can't load anything ...
Even changing drivers or cables or PC, nothing to do.

So, when the battery is removed, and you connect the USB cable, the phone is not even vibrating (and making that weird sound) every couple of seconds or so?
Yes you're right : every 10s the phone vibrate...

Well, then it is very strange that you can't use the SP Flash Tool. If the phone vibrates, then the device is recognised, and you should be able to flash anything you want with the SP Flash Tool! How exactly were you trying to use the Flash Tool?
I tried so many solutions I really don't know exactly how I used the software.
I will again try everything.
But against any changes when I look in the USB settings of the PC, the phone doesn't appear.
I try again just now, thank you for your help.

With the SP Flash Tool, all you need is the correct "scatter" file (MT6795_Android_scatter.txt), and the image(s) that you want to flash. If the phone is vibrating, then the SP Flash Tool should be able to connect to it when you click "Download". Just make sure that you first untick everything that you do NOT want to flash. I would try flashing the boot image (boot.img) first. If that succeeds, then try the TWRP recovery image.
Ok. I'm going to try again with "http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=196175&highlight=sp%2Btool%2Bflash%2Bredmi%2Bnote%2B2"

Strange! I am assuming that when you connect the phone with the USB cable, the battery has been removed from the phone? If so, then it should work.
Perhaps you should try first connecting the phone, and then waiting until it has vibrated once or twice, before clicking the "Download" button?
Yes I removed battery before connect the phone to PC. I tried also with battery and nothing changed.
I even changed the cable to be sure.
Which seems to me most strange is that I see nothing in the device manager, as if the phone wasn't connected. Whatever the installed driver is the same result. I think it should at least have the phone on the COM or USB port ...
I will try again this night to be sure with all steps one by one. And I will also try with ACER tablet I and runs Android 5.1. Maybe it will be recognized.
Otherwise I also tried to pass a Linux PC as a last resort.
Thanks again for your help.

Yes, it should. The fact that the phone vibrates when connected indicates that the PC and phone are communicating - but it may well be that a low-level driver in the phone has been overwritten (which may mean that this is a lost cause). A final idea - can miui recovery access usbotg?
Hum good question. In fact I don't know. I'll ask the MIUI forum.
I got home late from work so I don't do tests tonight, I'd see it all tomorrow including the connection with my tablet ...
Thanks

Hi,
I tried to connect with an Acer Tablet with Android 5.1.1 but nothing appends...
I tried also with a Linux PC (Debian) and if I can see a Samsung A3 phone dirrectly, no way for my Redmi Note 2...
There really I despair : I think I can't access any of the phone. Can't do anything !
If you have any other solution but you help me a lot already, and thanks for that.
Can be a micro crack on the USB plug into the phone if it's not a software problem ... Let's go for it apart and look at this ...
Thanks again bro.

I don't think it is a crack on the USB plug. It seems to me to be a low-level driver problem - ie, the drivers on the phone that are active when the phone is not (fully) booted up. I don't have the right terminology for these drivers, but they are possibly part of the bootloader. If that is the problem, then I don't know how you would solve this problem.

Try turning it off, then holding down the volume down (or up?) key when you plug it into the computer, the LED should go purple or green or something. Then see if it shows up

i traied it so many time but laptop does not recognize my phone as xperia u so it do not connect in ither flashboot or fastboot mode. and i installed all drivers which are neccessory. :
Have you tried installing drivers with flashtool?
Have you got access to a linux distro? because thats how I was able to connect my bricked xperia go in fastboot mode.
Maybe try unistalling your drivers and reinstalling them.
ok you need to tell me what os are you using and what rom did you try to flash does your phone light up when you connect it in fastboot if so its a drivers problem you should see if drivers are installed correctly if its correct then change your cable and the usb hub and try again Thanking me is always better than saying thanx

Hi,
I installed Lenovo P780 VibeUI 2.0 version: VIBEUI_V2.0_1512_DEV_P780 and gapps-kk-20150404-minimal-edition-signed.zip.
Then I installed Google Calendar from Play Store. Unfortunately it doesn't sync. If I go to settings/accounts/google there is no "google calendar data" option to choose.

Unfortunately I used [GApps][4.4.2][AROMA]_Aroma_Installer_GApps-v1.5.2 and didn't wipe data before/after. After rebooting the phone got "Lenovo launcher stopped, must be closed". After swithching the phone off and on end up with an infinite bootloop.
I rebooted the phone into recovery mode and wiped data, cache and dalvik and tried to reinstall VIBEUI_V2.0_1512_DEV_P780. After the first launch there is only a chinese text (I guess it might be some error, after clicking the button the same error apears again and again).
I tried to flash a custom revovery (as I end up with a Lenovo-Recovery with nothing to do) with a Flash Tool V5.13.52.200 as described in other thread but after clicking "download" and connecting the phone nothing happens (phone shows red light and a battery charge screen). The phone is recognized by the PC (Win 7) as even after turning the phone on again it is possible to upload files to the SD card using windows explorer.

IF your phone doesn't boot you'll need to use USB cable and flashtool or fastboot to recover, but since your usb port is broken i guess there's nothing you can do sorry
I would send the phone to sony service to get the usb port fixed...
Edit: one more thing, candy rom is not stock based and requires an unlocked bootloader, if you didn't unlock your BL before flashing that's why you bricked.... but you could still recover if your phone usb port worked.

Flashing any stock rom should fix your kernel problem now either flash a .ftf with flashtool, or try recovering your phone in sony pc companion.
I prefer flashtool for flashing as i never had problems with it and it's easy to set-up and work.

Humm weird, try flashtool once again, maybe with another .ftf or another pc, select all wipes, choose flashmode, make sure your phone is completely powered-off, when flashtool asks to connect just keep pressing volume down and plug the usb cable. flashing should start fine now.

Nope after 1 minute flash mode turns off automatically soo now here is what I did
Step 1 downloaded sony c s
Step 2 installed supprot
Step3 press update device without contcing to pc
Step 4 chose repair
Step 5 go with it and put it in flash mode
Step 6 before it finishs it will take a long time
Then it will only charge you can't press the power button for some reason
Step 7 go to flash tool start flash mode and it will reboot automatically
Step8 you will be in safe mode go to settings and format the phone
Step 9 it will reboot and into normal mode
Step 10 root through king root and termanil to make it a real root not temporarliy
Step 11 enable usb debugging and install recovery
Step 12 copy the rom from pc to recovery
Step 13 installed the rom everything is amazing except for one problem
I still can't press the power button I don't think it's hardware help me
That's it thanks for everything tell me if you know anything about the power button
@Sal7_one Wow that was way more complicated than it should but i'm glad your phone is working again :good:
Did you open your phone to fix the usb port? or did you send it somewhere? unfortunately the power button situation does seem like hardware problem...

But one more problem sim card does not work yes I went to repir it thanks
@Sal7_one humm pwr button working when it wants and sim card problems... that sounds like a bad repair job they probably left a cable / connector loose inside your phone :| i would take it to the same place and make them check / repair the phone again
Hi there,
i have made a mistake
i wanted to root so i flashed the trwp but i missed to deselect all options in the flashtool
now the phone does not start and in windows (win 10) it shows only as unkown device after 30-40 seconds plug in the cabel
i think i have killed the preloader but i cant flash it new with stock rom
i have tried to install all drivers wich could needed but nothing helps and the driver now seems to work not correct (yellow exclamation mark, mtk usb port, Mediatek preeloader Gadgat cdc)
maybe some one could help me, please???

Hi,
perhaps you will need to re-flash your phone with SP Flash Tool.
Download the latest firmware
here is the tutorial to flash : forum elephone
After that you will be able to root your phone using my tuto
Best regards, and I hope this will help you.

I had more or less the same situation. Was able to get into recovery and wiped all there is to wipe! After that I was able to reflash.

Try to remove all drivers and reinstall them. i had the same Problem before. Should work, afterwarda follow the instructions posted before ))
I flashed TWRP which worked, rebooted into TWRP so that still worked then tried wiping but got a mount error, I tested if it would install the img anyway and still mount error, so I changed slot from A to B, since then its just black screen and not recognised on PC at all.

First of all, what did you wipe in TWRP? /data?
Have you ever installed an OTA update? If not, you can't boot into the other slot. Same if you restored via MSM. You need to do one local upgrade until the B slot is bootable.
That will be what it is, I didn't do a OTA update. Is there a way to get back to the original slot?
I tried deleting data.

Mounting and formatting of /data is not supported on older TWRPs. Try the most recent one from mauronofrio here on XDA if you want to format it (at least for custom ROMs).
For Oxygen OS I would suggest using "fastboot -w" instead as OOS still can't be decrypted.
Probably either use the MSM tool or use "fastboot --set-active=a" and then try "fastboot -w" if it doesn't boot.
I can't currently get into TWRP though at the moment, after I changed slots its just powered off all the time and not recognised on pc I haven't used any tools though.
So I guess MSM tool might work, but would that work if currently the pc isn't recognising a usb device connected?

It should automatically download the drivers if you connect it in EDL mode.

Thanks for help so far, one final thing I hope when I picked up phone it gave me the full screen battery power too low to turn on message so it gave me hope I can fix it, I charged it for about 10 minutes and it gave me the "bootloader unlocked press power to pause" screen.
What is best thing to do here? Let it fully charge then connect to PC and try the MSM tool or let it drain and then connect to pc instead of charger and let it charge till its recognised by pc?

Charge it for an hour with a wall plug and then follow the MSM tool instructions.

Actually, I noticed I am able to now get into TWRP without connecting to pc, and switch back to slot A, but it said no OS installed.
Do I still need to flash via the MSM tool or can I just update TWRP then install stock rom, update then go back into TWRP and install custom? Or what is best way?

You can either flash OOS via the latest TWRP (and probably do fastboot -w) or I would just use the MSM tool which is much easier and gets you a fresh install
EDIT : Problem Solved!
