And please, a THANKS would be great if this helped you.
For some reason the phone one day just didn't boot. Was stuck on X logo.
We have tried alot... can't get into recovery, so flashed custom recovery, both RA and CWM... can't get into any of them, just stuck on X.
The phone was stock, and unrooted.
We managed to unlock bootloader via fastboot and root it.
Tried the PASSIMG.ZIP method - not working.
Any ideas?
.... please? =(
EDIT: Problem solved! Send me a PM if you're in the same seat, and i could send you all the files you need.
Oh, all you need is your FASTBOOT to work, no need for ADB, since it didn't work for me either.
EDIT #2:
The reason is that i have a file (ADB, and all the *.img's) needed on my server, and don't wanna post the link here so that's why i have done it thru PM.
But i'll update the first post and just delete the link, so when anyone needs it they can PM me.
So far (2012-02-10) 14 phones confirmed back up running, including mine. Got 2 unconfirmed, and just sent 5 PM's to guys with the same problem.
*** PM ME FOR THE LINK TO THE *.ZIP ***
Unzip, open an command promt, and:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash system system.img
do the commands in that order, and when you are done reboot the phone
and see if it boots.
if NOT: keep on flashing ONLY the boot.img again and again until it
boots. it seems like the boot partition is corrupted and may need alot
of flashing until it works.
i think i flashed like 100 times before it booted. =)
There is also another recovery in that zip... RA's recovery. You can also try that one, no harm done!
Once you get it to boot, you will have FroYo 2.2 installed.
If you got it to boot with recovery.img just let android update to latest (2.3.7?)
If you have RA's recovery, just flash back recovery.img or you wont be able to upgrade to 2.3.7 "the stock way"
Can you boot without sd card?

How do i find out?
When we searched yesterday (google), we found some ppl who had fixed it, now i can't find those pages again..
So anyone here who knows what to try?
I've been in a similar situation before and just kept fastboot flashing system, recovery, and boot, and eventually I recovered the phone...
I assume since you mentioned that you unlocked the bootloader, that you can get into fastboot? If so, flash a custom recovery (I'd recommend CWM since it includes an option to wipe the system partition) and boot into it.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "c:\location\to\recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery "c:\location\to\recovery.img
If you can get that far, wipe your /system partition and do a factory reset. Then install CM7 (or whatever ROM you want) and gapps.

Thanks!
But we have tried to fastboot system.img, boot.img and recovery.img
Still stuck on X.
Is that code any different perhaps?
I can't try that now, that's why i ask instead of try it =)
All the commands that I posted are supposed to do is install a custom recovery and then boot into it. From recovery, you need to wipe your device by wiping the /system partition and doing a Factory Reset/Data Wipe. Then install whatever ROM you want to.
I've never tried using fastboot to install the system image, so I can't comment on that at all.
O M G!!!
i actually got the phone up and running!! everything is working now, i'm just too awesome
If anyone is interested, i could find out what i did, and which files i flashed, etc etc.
Just an update:

Is it an illegal method, or is there another reason why a fix like this you're only sharing by PM instead of posting it here? I sent you a PM over 24hrs ago and haven't heard back yet. I would think making one helpful post would be much easier than getting irritated at replying to each of 10-100+ PMs

i would like to know how to you solve the problem
No recovery for unrooted fones

and then try to flash a recovery using
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then u r done
Thank if it helps u
I am really hoping someone can be of some assistance to me, today i managed to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and root the phone, i then stupidly downloaded and installed a boot animation from ROM Toolbox lite and went to TWRP and tried to flash it, it came up failed, tried to reboot but it only boots into recovery, tried wiping cache, dalvik cache, factory reset,system and format data and still it only boots into recoverywebt to advanced tried to install it said HTC Dumlock is installed but still boots into recovery,tried reflash to recovery abd restore original boot but still it wont boot up as normal, how can i get the phone to just boot up normally does anyone know?
I am such a twat im usually fairly careful when it comes to this type of thing, it'll be a nightmare if i have to pay to leave it into to get done.
Calm flash a custom rom after a full reset and it should work
If you're having issues putting a rom on your device it's possible through adb sideload with the AIO Toolkit
---------- Post added at 02:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 PM ----------
If you do a factory reset, you remove the Rom element so ideally as I previously mentioned flash a new Rom problem solved

Yeah you need to flash a custom rom - you've wiped system so it won't ever boot no matter how many times you try otherwise

Thanks mate can you be a little bit more specific as to how i can put a ROM on the phone as ive never heard of that AIO toolkit?
If you enter CWM recovery, theres an option called install zip from sideload. Press that and then plug it into your PC, and in CMD type
Code:
adb sideload <location of rom.zip on PC>
I use TWRP i assume that has the same adb sideload?
I am downloading Android Revolution now, so if i create a folder on C drive called c:\android then the ROM is the the img i flash when i open a command?

I presume, I've never used TWRP and yeah correct.
OK i am in ADB sideload now when i open a command and type adb sideload i do not know what else to type, i have saved both the boot img and the full zip file (Android Revolution) in the c:\android folder?
When you type adb devices does your phone show up? Have you installed the correct drivers

see the attached, i aloso tried to drag and drop the boot img to the command window and it wouldnt work, then tried the Android Revolution ZIP and it prompts me to use winrar, wtf am i doinf wrong, all i need to know do i use the boot img or the actual full zip file and i need to know what the exact location to type, i created a folder on c drive called android.
I am in an internet cafe too so i cant stay all day just another hour or so.
thanks
I am gonna have to leave it for now as its doing my head in, i wouldn be grateful if someone could post some specific instructions later and ill attempt it tomorrow, everything appears to be ok when i type cmd then
cd c:\android
adb sideload (what is thew exact name of the file i need to enter)
In the folder 'Android' which you cd'd to, is there adb.exe? And you dont use .img you link to the actual rom zip.

Buddy before anything else could you please put/attach/upload the flashable zip of the bootanimation you got from ROM toolbox?
It is better that we know first what partition it has overwritten so we could distinguish what we need to fix.
I understand that usually the system partition is the culprit but reading from the thread that is all pure guesses. It could be you overwritten a different partition that resulted to this.

Hi. I dont mean to hijack the thread but I thought it would be better than starting a new thread with the same problem. I just got my One today and started going through the process of installing a custom rom. I unlocked the bootloader, installed a custom recovery and root and everything went fine. When I went to install Revolution 9.2 I went through the aroma installer and everything said it went OK but I'm now in a boot loop.
I installed the toolkit and using that I was able to flash different recoveries, including the stock recovery, but while I can see a different recovery screen flash, it then still boot loops. I can get into Fastboot, but not recovery. I'm downloading a stock rom exe as suggested, but didnt know which one to select. Im downloading an Asia one since im in NZ and thats the closest. is it possible to flash back to stock by fastboot? Im wondering if my partition got porked during the rom flash.
Any ideas?

If you can get into fastboot you can return to the stock rom. or you can install ARHD 9.2 again.

But before you must find a way to stop the boot loop and enter to the recovery.
There is a boot.img in the ARHD zip file. Extract that file and by using "fastboot flash boot boot.img" command install to the phone.
After that erase the cache again. And Install any custom recovery. Try installing rom by AIO Toolkit SIDELOAD option.

Hi, I'm a newbie and I was supposed to post a thread regarding a problem I'm facing similar to this. So if it's alright, I'll post it here also and ask for your advice. I recently unlocked my HTC One w/ 4.4.2 amd Sense 6.0 a few days ago and was also able to flash CWM custom recovery and root it. I then tried flashing the latest Android Revolution HD, when I rebooted the phone after intallation, it just stays on the first spash screen. I forgot that I needed to S-off my device. So now, I can only access the bootloader and recovery. The status of my device currently is *Tampered*, Unlocked and S-On with 1.57 Hboot. Also, I can't copy files from my PC to the device. I don't know what to do. I've been reading around but I think I need some concrete advice. Thank you in advance.
Also, some already suggested that my problem is with CWM and I should flash TWRP recovery instead to flash ARHD. But the problem I'm facing is that my touchscreen suddenly doesn't respond on TWRP recovery but on CWM it works. Any idea on why this happens or is there just something I just don't see here or doing wrong with TWRP?

Hi, sorry I just saw this, where did you get twrp recovery from ?
make sure you get it from here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
also can you post your "fastboot getvar all" please, make sure you remove your imei and serial number from the output before posting.
---------- Post added at 08:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------
aslo, after flashing recovery, clear cache and reboot to bootloader.
ie:
fastboot flash recovery (recovery_name).img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
wait for each command to complete before issuing the next, after the reboot, try recovery again.

I did not had time to revert rooting and remove custom recovery, so can't say much at this moment.
But your bootloop issue is most probably due to presence of TWRP, you need to completely remove root & TWRP, restore stock boot and recovery, then try.

Fortunately I've made it working again.
What I did, I flashed phone with SP FLash Tool 5.1628 and K50a40_S433_160909_ROW https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/development/official-build-lenovo-k3-note-k50a40-6-t3370537. But it was not success at that time. Phone acted weirdly couldn't boot, only vibration after power on could be felt. So I tried to flash only the recovery Lenovo K3 Note Stock Recovery.img 10,2MB (also in the package but not default recovery image for S433) with the scatter map from S433 stockrom but SPFL said that it didn't end successfully, so I flashed only rocovery from stock rom S433 target_bin folder recovery.img 12800kB and then voila, it started to boot, there was a Lenovo logo, took some time to start but eventually phone is working.
Now I want to root it and / or flash correct version because my phone is actually k50-t5 not k50a40.
So thanks and good luck to those with similar problems after restoring factory settings on AIMROM.

Before proceeding download a stock and TWRP recovery from the link below
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2I5z1mFfUpcTUtjWUtpUmFCRWM/view
this is the stock recovery,extract this recovery and paste the contents to a folder named STOCK
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2I5z1mFfUpcaE5sZTk3M2Vrc1E/view
this is the TWRP recovery,extract this recovery and paste the contents to a folder named TWRP
1.install adb and fastboot on ur laptop.(am using ububtu 16.04)
2.make the phone to go to TWRP
3.plug in the usb
4.open terminal and type adb devices
5.see if device is detected ,if detected do the following
go to the STOCK rfolder u created and open terminal there.and type the following
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices

7.again repeat the above steps instead of STOCK use TWRP recovery.
8.your device will boot up with TWRP recovery build in

Exactly the same thing happened to me.
So I tried your idea and updated my TWRP, going from 2.8 to 3.1..1
But exactly the same thing happens - it still bootloops, but to the new TWRP.
I've tried flashing several different ROMs that all worked in the past. But no change.

do as what i have mentioned above,..and give update
It worked ! Thanks.
The reason I didn't try it straight away was all the comments about wrong links etc. And some of the links afterwards didn't work. So I was looking for a recovery.img file in other places.
I read your new message, so I used the first link in your post which gave me the recovery img. The TWRP link doesn't seem to work, but I already have an up to date TWRP on the phone.
