get into fastboot mode
And fastboot the original boot.img you used to generate the magisk_patched_[WHATEVER_YOURS_IS_NAMED].img
.\fastboot.exe boot .\boot.img
Try with that , if it boots ok , then something is wrong with that magisk_patched_img you are using

yes i can go in fastboot mode. but my phone is not rooted.
what shall i do ?
Rooting has nothing to do with flashing. Put it in bootloader mode and flash a recovery. Then try doing a factory reset. If that doesn't work, re-flash the ROM.

i will enter in bootloader mode and then how to flash recovery? can you explain little? Thanks
It's all in step 5 of the guide you used to root the device on the first place. No need to re-write it here.

actually i didn't understand which recovery to flash? twrp or stock ??
No offence, but you need to do more research and know how this stuff works before flashing things.
I can't answer your question because I don't know what you are trying to flash. Ask in the thread where you found it. If it's a custom ROM, TWRP Will work. If stock, stock recovery is best.
I'm signing off for a while. Good luck.

Right, because the device is rooted. The first section of the routing guide tells you the problem (modified system position) and there are threads here to solve it.

well that's why you need to unlock bootloader first before attempting to root your phone. and know what you are doing (flashing). With all that said if you can still boot to Recovery then flash this Full ROM (save this on an SD card) that should stop the bootloop and have a working ROM

If you can't boot to recovery or even bootloader this is your guide

if you can still access bootloader then simply just boot TWRP from it, first download this full rom and save it on your SD card
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087013219
then go to bootloader if you can still access it and boot TWRP
fastboot boot [whatever your twrp name is].img
you can download modified twrp here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=16464
then once inside TWRP just install the FULL ROM that was downloaded and saved in the SD card/
My phone boots into fastboot ok but there is no recovery wont boot. I try to flash recovery and it says it cant because not unlocked tried unlocking bootloader says its sucesfull but phone wont get bast boot logo.

Can't boot into recovery mode (everything else works fine)

Hi !
Recently, I noticed that I couldn't boot into recovery anymore (it gets stuck on twrp's logo). It's quite strange as everything else works just fine (normal works, fastboot too).
I tried to reflash recovery (from twrp 3.0.2-1 to 3.1.0-0), but still can't.
I'm running Resurrection Remix (based on Android 7.), rooted.
Someone had this issue too?
Nobody?

It's all OK in the dev options menu (usb deb ON and Unlock )?
Do you have a back up of the boot partitions?
Did you tried to flash OOS MM recovery ? Then TWRP again?
I tried both (USB debugging is on as flashboot works fine)
Nothing new :/
You might have a bootloader mismatch when you updated it for Nougat. Maybe try flashing it again?
I tried to find a link to download the bootloader, without success, do you have any?
I found the file of the new bootloader, but it seems that I can't flash it without TWRP :/
I tried many things, still can't boot in recovery one, nobody had this problem?
on which android version currently you are?
Hi, I know that's kind of a really big up...
Now, my phone is bricked (boot loop), and I still can't boot in recovery (flashboot still works).
Is my phone dead, or is there any chance to bring it to life again?
Thanks, and sorry again for this up :/

Via fastboot what's the output :
"fastboot oem device-info"
If unlocked = true , did you tried to reflash TWRP from here?
If = false : Megaunbrick guide..

It says "Device unlocked: true"
I tried flashing multiple versions of twrp, without success (the logo changes, so I guess the flashing worked), maybe I flashed wrong versions?
EDIT :
If it can help :
OS : Resurrection Remix v5.8.0 based on Android 7.1.1
Kernel : 3.4.0-Feather-X
Recovery : TWRP 3.0.2-1
Direct After flash twrp, reboot to recovery via power and vol - button
Use 3.1.1 official version
I'll try this
Still stuck on TWRP's logo (flashing seems to have worked as '3.1.1' is on the screen)
I guess my phone is actually dead so :/
Finally ! After looking on every corner of the internet, I tried to format cache and userdata via fastboot, reflashed twrp and it worked !
I really hope that this will help someone

If you need install Stock Recovery you need download a Oficial Stock firmware "Zip" and extract the Stock recovery to the this "Zip" file, and you repeat this metod with Stock Recovery

bro i need fastboot drivers please
in mi system dont hace driver and y my devices onlye hace android =( help me me has win10
Sorry, long time ago tha I haven´t visited XDA.
I have used the drivers of video´s link but i had to test many drivers. It was very dificult for my too.
Actually I don´t know wich was the drives that i used, sorry.
if you have once used some fastboot drivers for some device on windows 10, chances are most probably you will have issues with detecting other devices in fastboot mode . Either boot with linux or reinstall windows 10 is the only solution imho

Try this one: http://www.mediafire.com/file/45qwt6i4ccdnjd0/recovery.img/file
you need first to unlock bootloader (you need to be in bootmode):
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX609J
Just after that you can flash recovery.img:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After this you can go back to recovery from boot menu navigating with up/down key and confirm with Power button!

which ROM do you have installed?
There is a chance to need to flash an original recovery (you can find it in original 8.1 ROM from Nubia), than boot in recovery and erase cache and data (IT WILL ERASE ALSO INTERNAL MEMORY!...SO BACK UP) and than unlcok bootloader, flash TWRP, flash ROM, flash bluespark boot.img

Is my phone harbricked? No fastboot, no recovery

Hi All,
I've been crawling the web the past few days to find a solution to my problem and unfortunately I didn't...
I have a Asus Zenfone 3 Max ZC520TL MT6737M, I never did a custom OS installation before and didn't know anything about how phone works except the Linux kernel
After 2 or 3 weeks playing with custom rom and recovery, softbrick, fastboot and adb I finally successfully intalled a custom OS, I wanted lineageOS but only found an Himax image working properly (with bluetooth., etc) for my phone and TWRP as custom recovery.
I setted my parameters for all my applications and after inserting my SIM card the network was not working, I tried a factory reset from the phone and then I got stuck in twrp however the way I booted, I tried flashing the os again, the recovery again wiping/formatting data, I was still stuck in TWRP
Then I executed :
fastboot format:ext4 cache
fastboot format:ext4 boot
And now I can't boot nor in twrp nor in fastboot, I can't access the bootloader using power and volume up, and my phone bootloop
Is there a way to get to fastboot to reinstall the recovery and then from here the os or is my phone hardbricked with no future, ready for trash?
Thank you

You completely destroyed phone's boot-loader, what is comparable to a computer's BIOS.
What do you expect? IMO phone is case for the e-waste.

You NEVER format your boot partition as ext4 it's a raw boot.img which holds the kernel and ramdisk. You should really do research and follow instructions alittle better than that.. unfortunately I don't think your device can be saved and if you flashed aboot or sbl1/2/3 then your SOL
Thanks
Thank you for your answers!
I don't know why I did that (sometimes I have crazy bad ideas), I didn't see that on internet

That's okay! Please so make sure you do some research if your new to the custom OS scene.. it's always good to learn new things
maybe you can flash again like from the factory by using the default flashing and ROM tools.

If your in a Qualcomm chipset and you have an EDL programmer that works for your device I have custom tools in my cloud storage to create an EDL firmware if you don't ready have one. If your on MTK then there is Sugar MTK or SP flash tool that can work. If your an another one you may be out of luck as it seems nobody has been able to restore those chipsets

the biggest problem is i have reset the phone and i am stuck with this message: "to start android enter your password". I entered the correct password but another message appears with a reset phone option.
Since the recovery.img file is no longer in the system, the phone keeps making this loop.

Redmi 10c bootloop issue

so yesterday as I was flashing a custom rom for my device I found out that the hotspot wasn't working, I've look for solution across the internet and have found out that flashing persist.img on persist partition via twrp shall do the work, I did the same as instructed in the post downloaded the same file which I didn't confirm if it was really for my device, so after that my phone is stuck on an endless bootloop if I try to reboot to system luckily both fastboot and recovery was still accessible so I tried flashing another rom, stock, and even run flashrom.bat via fastboot but that didn't seem to fix it, now I'm only left with flashing stock img via miflash tool and hope it work for me, I can't really afford to pay anyone to fix it not at the moment and I want to atleast try to troubleshoot it somehow, what other options am I left with? hope I can get some answers

thanks, it was nervewracking as miflash failed to boot my phone twice, it turns out I just have to flash persist.img from the fastboot rom separately on orangefox and that did the work
