Okay, I have an Atrix HD that I have rooted and unlocked the bootloader and I have been running the SlimKat ROM with little to no problems and Philz Touch recovery for about a week until yesterday when my phone reset itself and started to boot loop. They only other thing I had flashed was a new logo to get rid of that stupid unlocked bootloader warning. I am fairly savvy when it comes to rooting and flashing roms because I have done this for years with various Samsung devices but the Motorola is a little new to me with having Fastboot.
Let me tell you what I have tried...
I first did a factory data reset in Philz and that did nothing.... then I tried to recover it back to my stock rom that I was running before using a nandroid backup that I had made with Philz Touch and same thing happened, it just sticks in boot loop. I then try to flash the PAC rom after I do a factory data reset and all the wipes I need to flash a new rom in Philz Touch to see if I can get a different rom to load and nothing happens but boot loop again.
Next I go to the forums to find answers and I start to set up my ADB on my computer... After I get ADB setup I first do fastboot -w to do a factory data reset through fastboot, download the stock Mexican rom and tried to flash all the components individually with ADB in fastboot the way skeevydude mentioned in one of his threads (sorry I can't remember which one) and I got a failed error "FAILED (remote failure)" when I tried to flash the system.img.
I then went to Mythtools v1.3 because I thought that I was doing something wrong with the ADB and fastboot... I put the stock Mexico retail rom into the firmware folder in Mythtools and tried to flash the stock firmware through Mythtools. Mythtoold froze when it rebooted the fastboot at 50 of 100%
Now I am at a loss, I have done everything that I know to try to fix this and I have searched everywhere for help and I need help. This is they only phone that I have because I just switched over to to a new carrier and just purchased this phone.
Any help would be appreciated!
UPDATE
I went into Philz Touch and formatted the /system so I could try and flash it again and now the phone boots straight to fastboot and Philz touch if I hold volume+ and power. I am going to download the stock mex retail rom and try and flash it through Philz touch.
UPDATE
I got an Error mounting /data when I tried to format the /data and when I tried to intall the Mexico retail rom I got a "set_perm: some changes failed E:Error in /storage/sdcard1/Atrix HD Mexico Retail 4.1.2.zip (Status 7) Installation aborted."
UPDATE
I formatted /data and /data media in Philz Touch and then it started mounting /data so I wiped and install PAC rom and it booted up just fine.
let me explain everything why have i created this thread.
My phone was only charging when switched off. I was on Lineage OS (by daniel_hk) at that time so i thought it is because of that custom ROM.
I, then, intended to flash stock ROM, this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/development/official-build-lenovo-k3-note-k50a40-6-t3370537
debloated version.
I booted into TWRP recovery (v3.1.1-2 by daniel_hk).
Wiped everything and tried flashing K3 Note S433 Debloated ROM from the link i mentioned above. I received error 7. Now i was stuck without any OS in the phone.
Then I tried to flash other version of twrp (3.1.1-0) in phone using sp flash tool but received another error- "PMT is changed for the ROM! It must be downloaded" :/
I googled and found the solution is format the flash using sp flash tool. I did it and flashed the recovery but my phone went dead completely! No responses at all.
Finally i decided to install the original S433 ROM in K3 Note using SP Flash tool but then i receved another error - "BROM: Error 4008"
Then I tried another version of SP Flash tool, v5.1628 (previously v5.1604), Received the PMT changed error then formatted again then flashed the Original ROM.
Now my phone is Unbricked but still not charging and i have no IMEI also.
Favours/Helps that i want-
1. Main thing i want my phone to charge when it is powered on. Watched this video on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7qtDMu_WTU but I am not able to enter Engineering Mode.
2. I want to install debloated version of this ROM through TWRP and for that i have to flash twrp now but to flash TWRP i will need to format using SP Flash tool first (becuase of error "PMT is Changed in the ROM") and if i do that my phone will be bricked again! If i somehow flashed the recovery then i'll not be able to flash the debloated version of the ROM because of the "Error 7".
3. Want my IMEI back
Any Help will be really appreciated.
And sorry if any similar thread already exists I couldn't find the best solution for me anywhere so i created my own!
dude , first thing to remember;
even if your os is completely gone and recovery option is still working , then don't ever do these stupid things.
I've been in your place . But i always knows that if your recovery is still working then there's 99.9% you can fix it.but it seems like you've ruined everything with other flash tools. Dude , unlike every phones, k3 note has it's own k3 note manager software available in xda forums. You can download twrp backups here . Lenovo stock rom backup was here, only you have to do is download and place it on the correct folder. Then press restore!!!
But you ruined everything. I don't know if it turn on again. You came here after all of this and asking us to help now? I
install a custom rom after installing the stockrom (which got error7 during install)
after u get error7 when installing the firmware,,you wont have any os for the phone to boot.
just flash someother custom rom after u got that error.. phone will boot up.
Please compare whether all files of the stockrom you downloaded are extracted,i got error 7,and when i investigated the reason was that one of the file inside the rar file was not extracted.which inturn caused error during instalation

Try this / these methods and report back:

Edit: Also, from memory, TWRP has boot fix and factory reset options - you can try those first.
