Hello all,
I would request your help - once again -
I have made some changes, some of them successful (thanks to the community!) but the last one was a disaster, my fault!
Indeed, the last statement: I actually have nothing, only black screen.
I tried to unbrick it, with Qfil,the CN room and the Qualcomm driver. But I have the error in the log following:
20:21:04: ERROR: function: sahara_rx_data:196 Unable to read packet header. Only read 0 bytes.
20:21:04: ERROR: function: sahara_main:860 Sahara protocol error
20:21:04: ERROR: function: main:277 Uploading Image using Sahara protocol failed
Do you have any idea how can I solve it?
You have to click on "download content" in qfil as fast as possible after connect the cable on PC, if it doesn't work yet, try different versions of the USB drivers
Hello
I did, really fast (0.5sec), no way
Are you sure it is really the reason?

Hold both volume buttons while plugging in the phone, and click download. After clicking download, keep holding vol down, but you can release vol up. Keep holding vol down until flashing is done. I had this issue where the port would disappear (disconnect) a few seconds after I released the buttons. If you have that problem, just hold the button all the way through.

it's dead plzzz help me to fix it
Are u referring to the market? if so... while on market page..press the menu button.
No. Download mode... hold volume down and boot it up, just hold down both until it pops up.
Why is it that there are like 4 different ways posted of how to boot into Download mode on each of the download mode threads but none of them work for me? Is it because I'm retarded and missing something simple or is this phone really that touchy to boot into download mode?
Can someone either post a very detailed account of how to boot the phone into Download mode or post a picture as proof that you have reached download mode successfully so I can at least know what it is supposed to look like should I ever make it there. Prob a good thing I havent made it there yet as I'd just end up flashing the wrong rom and mess up my phone, but it is just really bugging me that people have been posting about this, yet none of the methods in the posts have worked for me.
So far I've tried vol up+pow, vol down+pow, and vol up/down+pow with usb plugged in....Vol up+pow from the phone being fully booted and all the other combinations from recovery and the charging battery screen. What am I missing? Thanks to anyone who can point out my retardation, should it be my fault that it is not working for me.
I have recorded a video for my problem
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYLI8gUN3S4
I was able to root my Vibrant following the thread in here... u gotta hold down BOTH the volume up and down keys AND the power key.... it worked... ( use ur right hand...three fingers to make sure u do it right)
thank you
I tried these
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power }
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power } + plug in USB
Hold down; {volume DOWN + Power } = Recovery mode
Hold down; {volume UP + Power } = upload mode !
I tried more than 5 millions times what can i do
are there a ways open the internal SDcard then put update.zip and use recovery mode instead download mode ?
I had this same problem also the first day I got my phone...I installed an update.zip that caused the phone not to boot, and for the life of me could not get it into download mode to flash with odiin3. I read all the download mode post, so I thought maybe it was whatever I installed in the update.zip that cuased the button layout to change and thats why I couldn't figure it out. But I returned the phone...and now I still cannot get the phone into download mode.
To my understanding holding vol up+down and then hitting power sends you into recovery, which is totally different from download mode...So can someone clear this up...is the same screen displayed for download and recovery, just with different modes activated on the phone, or do they both show different pictures? Also again...I have still not reached download mode...so if you have a detailed account of how to do such...please post it...
Thanks.
Adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
Do that while in recovery...
Also, I if vol down and power don't work try vol up because you may have flashes a European updated and their buttons are different. For me if flipped the volume buttons.
Oh, and hold the buttons through two cycles seems to help me

I'm having the same problem. Simply cannot get into download mode. I have to believe that something else is going on here!
hi guys
I went to RadioShack I told them , I was honest to explain the problem that I downloaded a wrong firmware EU on my phone so the software broken
although they exchange the phone hhhhh
I am so happy now
i really won't back to rooting and "download mode" until hell freezes over
I'll be a polite customer just waiting the officially updates

Just rooting isnt that dangerous... it was the fact that it was the wrong firmware, not just that you flashed the firmware. Either way it's your choice and if you are happy with that more power to you, but the risk of doing anything with the rooting process is pretty low.
I've had good repeatable luck getting into download mode as follows:
1. Power down phone with no USB cable connected.
2. Once you see "good bye" connect USB cable.
3. Wait till battery indicator is visible, and you can see the current charge in green.
4. Hold vol+ and vol-.
5. Press power until screen goes black, then let go of power only.
6. Should see the yellow digger.
Again, your mileage may vary.

I can not thank you enough for this. Although I just took the battery out instead of powering down. So it appears the key is to making sure the battery indicator is on, and that you release the power button as soon as the screen goes black. I tried so many other combinations...even holding the power button past the screen turning black, but I got this on first try.
Thanks!
If you've got ADB setup just do 'adb reboot recovery'...
Is there a differnence between download mode and recovery mode?
Hello XDA Community,
Sorry I didn't know where to post this...
Two weeks ago I purchased a Lenovo S8-50LC Tablet. It was working fine until last night, I was watching movies on Youtube and chatting with some friends. Then I went to bed and there was still around 50% charge in the battery.
When I woke up, I tired to wake up the device but it didn't respond. I thought it was stuck or something, so I tired to hold the power button for 20 seconds to do a hard reset but still didn't work. After that I plugged it in to a power source with the compatible charger that came with it and the screen light up with no data on it. I tried to power it on then and it showed the Lenovo logo and in a very tiny font underneath the logo it said "Boot Fail, Efi hard drive".
Then it would take me to a screen which says:
"EFI Shell version 2.31 [1.0]
Current running mode 1.1.2
map: Cannot find required map name.
Press ESC in 5 seconds to skip startup.nsh, any other key to continue.
Shell>_"
http://imageshack.com/a/img907/6979/reZJPf.jpg
and that's it!
I don't understand why this screen appears. I mean the tablet was working properly over the night and it had no issues whatsoever, but now it doesn't boot!
Then I tried to power it off and press Volume UP + Volume DOWN + Power Button, it showed a black screen with only one line: "FastBoot Starting...Can't get eMMC Info, revert to default value!"
http://imageshack.com/a/img661/1158/bRg9jj.jpg
That's all what I got...
PS:
1- The tablet does all that only when it's plugged to a power source, but when it's not plugged, it doesn't show anything.
2- When I plug it into the pc via USB, the pc doesn't recognize it.
3- I tried to boot into fastboot mode or recovery mode but it doesn't work either.
Please help me fix my tablet and I hope it's going to be soon. Thank you all in advance!
UPDATE:
1- I left it on the charger for maybe 2 hours and now it's turning on without being plugged in to a power source.
2- When I press Volume UP + Volume DOWN + Power Button, it shows the previous mentioned phrase, but now when I connect it to the pc via USB, windows recognizes it as Lenovo Composite ADB Interface under Android Phone
http://imageshack.com/a/img903/3907/oQdSAB.png
3- Tried to perform some fastboot commands like flash, format and erase, it always fails with the error:
Failed (remote: unknown command)
UPDATE2:
1- When executing ADB commands like adb devices it says "no devices found"
anyone?
Hello. A friend of mine has the same problem. He dropped the device and the screen cracked. After a reboot the tablet is on the same situation. I plugged a keyboard via otg , it stops the countdown in the EFI SHELL, but i can not type anything. I think is an eMMC related problem.
I guess the eMMC is totally fried or something. But, I mean, I didn't leave it on the charger all night or anything, why would it do such a thing!
any solutions or suggestions??

Thank you for your reply but it doesn't work .. as I mentioned earlier I don't have a "download mode" because any key combination I try to use just sends me to the shell window .. anymore suggestions would be appreciated!
-unplug usb cable
-turn off
-hold (volum+) and (volume -) towice
-press power button
It should go to fastboot quickly (a black screen with a little text)
I think I just hard bricked my V10,
was trying to root it with tot file and something went wrong, it restarted,
Now I have bootloop on lg screen.

So I basically can't access download mode.
Only input I have is, when connected to PC, during bootloop, before it restarts it's visible as COM device

When that happened to me after deleting some apps with Titanium (now I just freeze them ), I managed to install the TOT again with LGUP
Turn the phone on (I tried all ways, normal, reset, download mode, not sure which one worked), with LGUP running on the PC and USB cable connected, it worked after a few tries, good luck :good:
Try to get to recovery mode as follows:
Turn off your LG G4 (complete a full shut down process – press power key and select “power off” or press and hold power button for a few moments).
Then, press and hold Power and Volume Down buttons – don’t release the keys.
Keep pressing the buttons until the LG Logo is being displayed.
At that point release the buttons for about 1 second.
After that immediately press and hold Power and Volume Down keys pressed once more.
The recovery mode menu should be then displayed on your LG G4.
You can use Volume Up and Down buttons in order to scroll up and down and you can press Power key to select.
Choose “reboot system now” when you are ready to go back to Android OS.

It does go to recovery, but PC does not detect it. Also when I press to reset phone it give same error and reboot.

Thanks for advice, but I just can't keep it mounted to pc long enough for LGUP to detect.
Though, i'll try it nonethe less. I have short window before phone reboots, maybe it'll be enough
Thanks for answers

Leave the cable connected and LGUP on all the time while you try rebooting, and look at the PC to see if it recognized the phone, eventually mine connected
LGUP recognizes it but, says that it's an unknown device.
did you have same problems?

Also try after LGUP recognizes the phone unplug and plug USB cable...

Hey, the exact thing happened to me because of the same reason XD
Anyway, I was able to get into download mode and reflash it on the first attempt.
As for the unknown device problem, IIRC it's an issue of LGUP that can be solved via something involving removing the battery.

Hello,
So, when you plug the phone to the USB port, you are able to charge the device and the notification light is on.
In this case, if you press the Power button, you should see something on the screen: A green battery and a percentage.
Is it what you see?
Now, you can try 3 methods to boot:
1) Normal boot: Press and hold the Power button until you feel vibrations.
Now, release the Power button.
What do you see on the screen?
You should see the Mi logo containing the text "powered by android" and a progression bar.
2) Fastboot mode boot: Press and hold the Decrease volume button until you feel vibrations.
Now, release the Power button.
What do you see on the screen?
You should see the Fastboot logo containing the text "FASTBOOT".
3) Recovery mode boot: Press and hold the Increase volume button until you feel vibrations.
Now, release the Power button.
What do you see on the screen?
You should see the Mi Recovery menu with 3 items: Reboot, Wipe Data and Connect With MIAssistant.
If the method 1) is not working but the method 3) is working, you can Wipe Data so it will reset the phone.
Warning: You will lose your data on the phone!
Good luck.
Best regards.

I also have the same issue. I tried re-plugging the battery. Unfortunately it didn't solve the problem for me. Just to be sure, did see the MIUI logo or did you have a completely black screen before solving the issue. In my case I can't see anything. Only the vibration and the led.
Long story short, I tried reverting from LineageOS 20.0 to 19.1. I successfully was able to revert back to stock using the MSM Tool, and started the process of installing LOS 19.1. Although I downloaded the LOS 19.1 installation files (lineage-19.1-20230426), I think I screwed up because I had started following the installation instructions for 20.0. I unlocked the bootloader and flashed dtbo.img and vendor_boot.img, then flashed boot.img (all under lineage-19.1-20230426). I then booted up LineageOS's recovery but had issues sideloading lineage-19.1-20230426-nightly-dre-signed.zip, so I loaded the image onto an SD card instead and sideloaded it that way.
My device restarted, however it won't boot past the "1+ Powered by Android" screen. I'm unable to boot into recovery or fastboot mode using the power and volume keys - only the "1+ Powered by Android" screen is displayed. While the device is powered off, I've tried holding tried down Vol Down + Power, then releasing Power once the OnePlus screen appears, Vol Up + Power, and Vol Up/Down + Power. Every variation, I only get the 1+ screen. I should also note that while on this screen, it's not recognized by ADB or Fastboot. The only option I have it to power it off by holding Vol Up/Down + Power.
I'm trying to get into EDL mode so that I can use the MSM tool once again, but it doesn't seem to be recognized. While the phone is powered off, I've tried holding Vol Up/Down + then power, but it immediately goes to the 1+ screen. The device seems to power on as soon as the USB cable is connected, so I've also tried Vol Up/Down then plugging in the USB cable. Same result.
Any recommendations or suggestions would be helpful.
I had been trying to get this thing to boot into EDL mode last night and a good chunk of today, and literally 5 minutes after I posted this, I got it to boot into EDL mode.
For anyone wondering, while at the "1+ Powered by Android" screen, I was able to get into EDL mode by holding down Vol Up/Down & Power, then once the screen shut off, I began tapping the Vol Up button several times. I knew this time was different because it didn't reboot to the 1+ screen, but the screen remained off (black). And for those who aren't aware, the screen is off while in EDL mode so there's no way (at least that I know) to tell it's in EDL mode other than it being detected by the MSM tool.
in trying to convert DE2118 to DE2117 i literary entered EDL mode like 5-6 times. (A11 wouldnt flash, A12 wouldnt boot, Lineage20 wouldnt boot, When downgraded A12 to A11 it would revert back to DE2118 rather than staying on DE2117, so on so forth). Everytime solution was so simple, hold Vol UP Vol Down and POWER button till screen goes OFF. Keep holding Vol up and Vol down and plug in USB C that puts device in EDL mode in less than 5 Seconds. This is fail proof method for anyone to enter EDL method as far as I have learnt.
Maybe it's just me, but this answer sound like it's coming straight from ChatGPT

Yeah, this was one of the first methods I tried, and it didn't work for me. I don't think it would make a difference but I have the DE117 and not the DE118.
