Hi guys,
I followed following guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343) to install CM 12.1 on my phone, after step 39 I stopped and installed CM 12.1 via recovery on my device.
This worked perfectly for a few days until I decided to do a recovery of my TA backup (don't ask me why, I probably misunderstood the information I got). Of course my device was "dead" with the blink red lights but with the flashtool I was able to flash the starters ROM from the guide back on my device. I tried the same steps for 3 times now to get CM 12.1 back on my device but it doesn't work. My device goes always "dead" after installing CM 12.1
Can somebody help me out on what to do? I probably need to do something with my kernel/bootloader?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you,
Cerv
Don't mind this stupid question, I had to unlock my bootloader again DUH. I'm such a noob.

Hello,
I have a nexus one that isn't working anymore. I was trying to install the cyanogenmod, but I guess I didn't do it correctly.
I was following the clockworkmod way from this: h t t p ://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Nexus_One:_Full_Update_Guide
When flashing the rom something went wrong. After step 6 my phone didnt reboot, it just stayed off. Now it will only give me the nexus sign if i turn on the phone.
I can still acces the recovery menu when holding Power + volume down.
People told that I should go back to the stock rom.
Can anybody please help me?
*don't know if i've posted in the right category
When you get to recovery is it still clockwork or stock? If clockwork then try and flash cm6 again. If not you will have to download a stock rom push it to the sdcard as an update.zip and boot into the boot loader.

Since you can boot into recovery you have NOT bricked it for sure
As mentioned in the earlier post try to flash the CM ROM again
If you are unable to access the custom recovery (as in, the stock recovery is still in place), you can follow the manual instructions for installing ClockworkMod: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Nexus_One:_Full_Update_Guide#Manual_Method
You can then follow the procedure for flashing the appropriate radio image: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...ll_Update_Guide#ClockworkMod_Recovery_process
And you can even install the ROM without using Rom Manager using this process: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...Update_Guide#Second_Method_.28via_Recovery.29
All of this is, as I'm sure you've noticed, posted on the same page that you linked. Hopefully this information will help you, now that you have been assured that your phone is not bricked.
Thanks for quick replies. I've contacted a guy with a lot of knowledge about these kind of thinks and helped me fixing me phone. I dont know exactly what went down but I will give it a try.
My first mistake was thinking that I rooted my phone (using the one click method). Don't know if thats the right way to do it, but in the end it wasn't rooted and I tought it was.
The guy rooted my phone, did the AmonRa recovery install and installed the Ethernom Rom for me. Great to have my phone back to working and great Rom btw.
Hi! I have a old droid bionic, which may be hard bricked, but may just need a new recovery. About a month ago, i have safe strap running on it, and installed CM 10. then i was updating the safestrap, but got the wrong device version. Now all it does is boot the the safestrap screen, the goes blank for ever. I can get fastboot to work, as well as the default recovery.
Bottom line, is there a way to get a version of android back on here?
thx for all the help and devs!
Regards
Nvm, got it working again thru like 5 steps. Now have TWRP and CM 11!
I'm pretty sure so long as you can get fastboot enabled, you can fix almost any problem.
I really need help. This is the first time i try too install cyanogen on my xperia t and i am in big trouble.
I followed this guide "How to Install CyanogenMod on the Sony Xperia T ("mint")"on the cyano wiki and i installed the last nightly for my phone.
In the ClockworkMod Recovery i saved a backup before installing cyanogen. Then i started the phone and i had no IMEI so my phone couldn t get the TIM service and i couldn t do or receive any call. So i came back to the clockworkmod recovery, did a wipe and than selected the "restore" option. After this, it asked me if i wanted to root and i sayed yes. Now my phone is a paperweight... I can not even put the phone into fastboot mode. I don' t know what to do!!
Please, help

I have been able to put it in fastboot mode again and now i am in the ClockworkMod Recovery again now. What should i do?
I have tried again to restore, this time i said no when i asked me to root, however the phone still don' t boot. Should i try to reinstall Cyano?
Ok, i have reinstalled Cyano and the phone works.
But i still have the problem of the Imei and "no connection"
PS:
I know my imei but i don t know how to configure it in the phone
Hi there,
I got a bricked G5S+, which I reported in another thread already.
It was booting, showing the blue Motorola screen but ended up with a lying down android with a red questionmark and saying 'no command'.
That happened after I rebootet the cellphone for a longer time.
I read through a couple of threads and finally decided, I need to flash stock again.
I did not have switched on USB debugging and so on, as the phone was quite new to me and now cannot access android anymore to do so.
Anyway I thought: fine: I will just flash the stock OS again taking care of the software defect.
After having had some issues I flashed Sanders (SANDERS_NPS26.116-26_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml) following that thread here:
https://animetrick.com/flash-stock-rom-moto-g5s-plus-locked-bootloader-2018/
It is quite similar as this thread, which deals with installing a stock OS to a bootloader-locked phone:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/solution-to-flash-stock-romfactory-t3691396
The thing is I followed all steps but still get the same error:
A lying down android with a red questionmark and saying 'no command'.
Does anyone have an idea what else to try?
I am not aversed to install a custom Rom, such as the official RR v6.0.0, but I have no idea how to do so with a currently bricked phone.
Maybe you guys have a solution for me to unbrick and finally use my phone again.
Thanks a lot!

Hey bro Im not sure if you still need help but, if so can you try to boot into a recovery?
Hi Carlos,
yes I still need help.
I can boot into recovery. And fastboot runs and detects the phone, too.
Any idea what I can do?
Go ahead and download twrp from the Roms sections and also begin the process to unlock the boot loader, we can see if it still can be done without having enabled the setting in the developer sections, and if so we can either then flash the recovery and a custom rom or install stock again.

I solved my problem:
It was the SD card. I cannot believe it.
I got myself another G5S Plus and swapped everything:
Same issue.
So I removed the memory card and all good again.
There is no need anymore to install a custom rom (at least not currently )
I am quite sad though not having figured that out earlier, becoz all my data is lost now....
Thanks for your help though!
I have fallen into same issue, i cannot install any custom rom or recovery to it but i can access fastboot & one recovery that has update via adb sideload / sd card but nothing works, shows failed line 2 error / install aborted .
the device just showing oem locked in fastboot & rom install or recovery install fails & says cause too many links
the phone starts & stucks after the motorola logo
anybody with any idea?
So after having my Xperia Z3 Compact for 5 years or so. I decided to try to install Lineage OS. Everything was going ok until I turned off TWRP with my OS wiped. I do have a backup on TWRP. But the thing is when I turn my phone on there is just a Sony logo and nothing happens. I tried going back into TRWP with volume up but nothing happens when I do that. I can go into fastboot mode though. Is there any other way to go in TWRP? Is there anything I can do to fix it? I read other forums with a similar problem but everybody seem to able to go back into TWRP.
P.S I am a noob.
Nevermind. Fixed it.
