[Q] Nexus one flash ROM fastboot OS low memory cant acces home

My Unlocked Rooted Nexus one FRF91 when my phone starts I dont get access to home lancher seen and cant run application , my power button is dead. So only option is reload the Custom Rom but I cant select recovery on hboot as my power button is dead, so only option to clear & update rom is fastboot, when I try doing fastboot update customrom.zip it gves error ..
D:\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools>fastboot update update.zip
archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'
archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'
error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt
what to do now how do I clear my phone memory or load custom rom through fastboot ? can any one give me link to zip packed with these txt file any version, or passimg.zip way?
hboot 0.33.0012
radio 4.06.00.12_7
Also I would like to know currently the hboot give access of selection of recovery by power button, is there upgrade on hboot which provides selection of recovery through trackball...?

You don't flash roms in fastboot.

Just turn your phone on. Even if it doesn't get to the launcher, connect USB and:
"adb reboot recovery"
If you don't have USB debugging enabled - download the recovery and:
"fastboot boot your_downloaded_recovery.img"

Thanks Jack and Albundy, I could have tried Jacks suggested, but look what I did was since I was not able to erase userdata partition (Failed) so I overwrite it with fastboot flash userdata data.img (I had data.img from g1) LOL I was able to access the launcher home now and went to recovery through this and wiped everything in recovery & reloaded Froyo! that’s it.
One learning I never Nandoid back up ever, so first did this so infuture I can always use fastboot flash partition partition.img to reload the OS freshly.
Some tips for those who have power button failure & fell into same trouble, dont get panic.
1) Connect to power and insert battery see its charging, remove the battery and reinsert it quickly when you see the charging light has gone off. This will switch on your mobile.
2) Above combination with holding trackball allows to go directly in fastboot & with vol down key allows you to go in Hboot.
3) Always do Nandroid backup so in bad event you can always use fastboot to rebuild the fresh OS.
I wonder is there an HBOOT which allows recovery selection with trackball not power button.

[GUIDE] How to unbrick HUAWEI P8 when failed to update and ends in bootloop

Hi
I see someone here have problems with bricked phone. It just keeps restarting and you cant even turn it off.
The problem is here that UPDATE never ended to 100% and software successfully changed boot.img to the new one
but with old system on the phone.
Its even worse if you have TWRP recovery installed before update then it will brick the phone too.
Allways install stock recovery on current rom before update firmware.
Ok i will start now with this guide because i had same problem and fixed it by myself.
I will not put any links to downloads find them self GOOGLE is your friend
First of all if you were on B200 5.0.1 version of android then you need B170 firmware to extract boot.img and recovery.img from
the UPDATE.APP file
For that you need a software called Huawei Firmware Extractor
Download it and install
Now you need even ADB/FASTBOOT on the computer. If you dont have download and install. Install even drivers for the phone
Now Open the Huawei Extractor and add the UPDATE.APP file.
Now you will see alot of files below
Now mark the boot.img system.img and recovery.img and extract them to the desktop of your PC
Now copy those files to the ADB/FASTBOOT folder.
You phone i still under the bootloop and you need to get it into FASTBOOT mode. Only way to do it is to plug in USB cable to the phone.
Now as soon the phone reboots by itself hold Power and Vol down button until you see white screen and fastboot mode
Now go to the ADB/FASTBOOT folder where you copyed files and hold shift and press right mouse button to get "Open command window here"
So you will be in fastboot and you will see C:/ADB that is right directory
Now start with fastboot erase cache
Then write fastboot flash boot boot.img and hit enter
When done do following fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and hit enter
You can if you want even try to flash system.img by writing fastboot flash system system.img or fastboot flash system.img dont remember that combination
but try and see wich works.
Now write fastboot rebootand phone will reboot . If you still have bootloop then as soon phone goes black then Hold Vol+up and Power until you see recovery.
Over there make factory reset and cache and then reboot.
If you still cant boot into recovery then you need to get Firmware B170 and put it on you SD card in DLOAD folder
to flash it from scratch. Same here is that you need to have USB plugged in in order to get to EMUI flash mode or it will wont work.
Remember that you only need UPDATE.APP in the DLOAD folder from B170 firmware.
I know my English sucks but im trying to help...

Yes, this is the your mistake
Never update firmware with instaled TWRP. First you need to flash to factory recovery then install the original firmware like B170(B200), then update to Marshmallow

Nevermind, fixed it.

You don't flash img files through the recovery. Flash recovery.img, boot.img, system.img and cust.img manually through the fastboot screen (vol down + power) using either the windows command or mac terminal.

Thank you, at the moment I'm trying the same.

Which firmware, I've tried with full B200 and extracted images, but no success. B170 ?

Don't have success, please give advices ?

1. I Download the B313 update and extract the boot.img and recovery.img from update.app using Huawei Firmware Extractor.
2. Connect your P8 to your PC/Mac. Hold down volume down + power just before you feel the vibration and the Huawei logo shows up. This will boot you to the Fastboot/Rescue screen.
3. Using the windows command prompt or mac terminal, flash the B313 recovery and boot images using Fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After flashing these, if you reboot normally, the bootloop should be gone but you will get stuck at the Huawei logo. However, you'll now be able to access recovery (volume up + power) and the 3 button update (vol up + vol down + power) modes.
You can now reboot either holding the power down or issue a fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
4. This may be optional and may not have any bearing but at this point I was ok with losing data just to get the phone booting again. Boot to the recovery (volume up + power) Yes, it's not that easy using the buttons. Just try it until you get the recovery to boot.
In recovery select Wipe data/factory reset and Wipe cache partition.
5. Download the B170 Full ROM and extract the dload and custom folder to your microSD. Use a card adapter/card reader.
6. IMPORTANT: Disconnect your P8 from your computer if it is still connected. Doing the next step while you're connected through USB will cause the update to get stuck at 90% and if you force a reboot, your device will bootloop again.
7. Reboot from the recovery and boot into the EMUI Updater using the 3-button method (volume up + volume down + power). Let the phone update and voila! You're back in business!

Confirm, it works!
 @rndll bold and make red color B313

I've interrupted update (B313), write to SD /dload full B200 and started Recovery. Update gone just fine and phone started with brand new B200. Even don't reset or wipe !

Hey TopperBG,
i'm in the same Bootloop as you described.
I tried every ROM I found on the internet but the combo with Vol Up + Vol Down + Power won't work. There ist always a fail after 1 % loading.
The second I tried was on fast boot. Problem im my boot loader is locked. So there is no chance for me to get something flashed.
Last option was your comment. I've loaded the B200 Rom on my SD-Card in /dload and tried (the second time) the Vol Up+Vol Down+ Power combo. No success. Then I tried just Vol Up+Power to get the Recovery mode as you described. But I have no chance to boot to recovery mode.
Do I forgot a step ??
Please help
Thanks
Flo

Tell me first what you've done when become to bloop ?
With boot and recovery from that ROM you must flash.
If you can forcibly start update (vol+ vol- power) you have a chance to update properly with update.app in /dload folder

I tried to update through local update on the Phone. But not with .zip. I tried the .app directly. Now i know it was the wrong Choice.
Flash with fastboot is no option for me because of the locked bootloader.
If I do the Force start with the new marshmallow rom (update.app) there is a warning that i'm using the wrong version for my phone.

is my phone brick ? ,how to resolve it .!!

I have rooted my phone just now.
after rooting the screen is stuck at bootloader warning sign for 2 hours,
i tried to shutdown restart and getting in the recovery mode, by holding power button ,by holding volume down and power button ..my phone would vibrate and it is again stuck at the warning sign of bootloader unlock screen ...it doesn't go further than that..
when i connect my phone to PC sound is heard in PC of phone connected....and same thing is repeated .
i know if i can go into recovery mode i can flash my stock ROM and resolve this thing.... but i am not able to go into recovery mode after pressing volume down and power button.
help me out !!!

@kdeepak94 . You can temporarily boot a recovery image by download ADB and Fastboot Files from here http:///rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Adb%20Fastboot%20Files .
Download a Recovery Image which suits for your device .
Extract the contents in the ZIP and place them in a folder
In an empty space in the folder click on Shift+Right Click to open a command prompt
Now in the CMD type
adb devices to check whether it recognizes your device . If so type
fastboot boot and drag the Recovery IMG inside the CMD Window .
The device should boot it and If it boots , You can work on the patch to restore your device . PM if you couldn't resolve it and Hit the Thanks

Flashed Wrong OS; 4x Won't Power On

1. I have successfully requested and unlocked my 4x.
2. I wanted to install: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-4x/development/rom-2017-08-07lineage-14-1-t3653016
3. First step, install TWRP following this: https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomiredmi4x.html (Fastboot Install Method (No Root Required)
3a. Using version: twrp-3.2.1-0-santoni.img as downloaded from the twrp site
3b. After many reboots and tries, finally get into TWRP. Password not accepted at first, press cancel, get to TWRP menu.
3c. Wipe->Advanced Wipe->System,Cache,Dalvik's/Art cache. Swipe, then get errors. Try again, errors. Press reboot option.
4. 4x OS will not boot. It is stuck in endless cycle of Mi logo, and recovery/TWRP boot (vol+ and power) does not work. Only way to break Mi logo is fastboot (vol- and power).
5. Try to reset phone so I can start entire process (starting at 2) all over again following this: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
5a. Used this version: http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=mido_global&b=X&r=global&n=
5b: Edited the flash_all.bat following this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_osMF9EubhI
5c. Left fastboot mode, device will not power on at all.
And as I type this I realize I put on the "Note 4x" instead of the "4x" version. I should have used this version: http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=santoni_global&b=F&r=global&n=
As a potential next step I've identified: http://en.miui.com/thread-693884-1-1.html
I need some expert guidance at this point. Thank you.

Recovery is both volume keys plus power.
Maybe you should reflash firmware as well(v32).

you can try it
download and install last version ADB https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
enter to TWRP both volume + power. after choose Advanced - ADB Side load .. run it
run command line on PC after: adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip
wait while rom will be installed... press Reboot to System (if TWRP don't reboot byself)
wait near 5-10 min for first time rom startmust work.

I have gotten to recovery with just vol+. Regardless, the phone will not turn on from either combination.

vol+ and power ... have menu for reboot to Fastboot and Recovery .. choose it for reboot to TWRP and flash phone or in Fastboot and flash with Miflash

you know,, if you install twrp,, the combination key vol up+power cannot work,,, he work if you hold vol up+vol down+power until MI logo then realease.

This sounds a hard brick to me.
Every replies about Fastboot and Recovery are pointless, because he cannot start the phone in Fastboot.

either it's hard bricked or motherboard stopped working after the wrong flash.
i think you should give it try on test point method once as you have mentioned in this thread (do it on your risk) or you may have to visit service center since any button combination isn't working for you.
what is the status of device when connected to PC or on charge ? is it charging ? does led light blinks ?

I used the guide I posted in OP to fit it, though it wasn't easy. Gonna try lineageOS one more time. Thanks to all who tried to help.

I had this same. I saved my phone using this toturial:
and

Be careful with the screen and sim tray!
My phone was 100% dead (no fastboot or recovery). I have tried everything before and only that works.

Question Phone stuck in boot loop, unable to get to FastBoot

Hi,
Sequence of steps:
1. Extracted the boot.img from payload.bin and flashed it to the phone. At this point I was able to get into Fastboot
2. While in Fastboot I went into advanced and wiped the "System Settings", and that's when the trouble started - now the phone is stuck into a boot loop forever, I do however get the options to "Power Off" and "Restart"
3. But none of the options above in Step 2 is able to bring me back to Fastboot (and hence into fastbootd either)
Question: How can I get the phone into Fastboot Mode - have tried MSM Tool v4 as well, but that doesn't even recognize the phone

Edit - This seems to have been resolved now, think I had to press Vol Down + Power instead of Vol Up + Power
Was able to enter into Fastbootd as well, will try to proceed with unbricking the phone with a fresh mind tomorrow

FYI for others reading I was able to install magisk by booting the patched file (dump the payload using the python script mentioned above). Running the command Fastboot boot filename boots into the operating system and then magisk can be installed using the direct method.
I assume running this command the phone doesn't actually flash the boot image but could be wrong

Thats right, "fastboot boot <file_name>" loads temporarily your custom recovery of choice. After rebooting your phone, the custome recovery is gone.
Otherwise, the command "fastboot flash <file_name> recovery" flashs permamently your custom recovery of choice to your device.

Hi I have a oneplus 8t and I tried flashing a payload.bin file using fastboot enhanced. after the operation completed I tried to reboot but the phone only shows the logo and then the bootloader unlocked warning message and then turns off briefly, then it does it again and the screen goes black. When connected to the PC, the PC recognizes the devices as android adb recovery devices but i can't do anything from there. Tried the volume up+power combo and it just does the same thing. tried the volume down+power combo and absolutely nothing happens. If i could at least get to the bootloader I could unbrick it but I just can't get there. Any advice

I have exactly the same issue, on a nord 2

How about vol+/vol-&power all together? When stuck that gives me some screen that allows start, recovery (the one where you can enter advanced settings I expect from your description) and bootloader booting.
