This afternoon, my device suddenly went into restart loop. I had been searching for solution. Most of them suggest to do a factory reset.
But I only backup my files until this year February. The files after that I haven't backup. They are very important to me.
May I know how can I recover my files?
Is there any way to access my device's internal memory in recovery mode and I can transfer those files to my pc? Then I will do a factory reset.
Please help me T.T
Is your device rooted? Does it have a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM?

Unless your phone is S-OFF or your bootloader is already unlocked there is nothing you can do to recover your files.

Unlocking the bootloader will wipe your phone but yes it can be done.

You should just be able to flash recovery from fastboot, then adb push a rom onto the SD card and flash.

after flashing a custom recovery, download hasoon2000's toolkit from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183942
place it on your desktop and then place your custom rom inside the folder. run the toolkit and use the function "adb sideload" to sideload the rom on your device. also choose "adb sideload" in your custom recovery while doing this.
it should work

You will probably have to get a new unlock token from htcdev to unlock it again.

Hello all,
To make a long story short: my phone is stuck his bootloader after it wiped my internal storage (i dont know what exactly happened but it happened).
The last 5 hours straight i tried to fix it throught adb sideload but ended up that i only have acces to my bootloader now.. it doesnt enter the recovery annymore, i tried to flash other recoverys (twrp and cwm) but its stuck on bootloader now.
Im despirate now, tried to solve it myself without disturbing others with it but im kinda lost now. My phone is s-on and i am hoping that somebody can help this despirate man out!
EDIT: I just noticed that my bootloader says that my phone is relocked now?
EDIT2: This is the last thing i tried (see attachment), i dont think it worked
Your phone is relocked?
Ok, you've to unlock this, flash a recovery do an erase cache and after sideload/push a rom into your sd and flash this...

Hi there,
While trying to restore my phone to factory condition using the Nexus Root toolkit, I then locked my bootloader. Now I'm bootlooped with a locked bootloader. Is there any way out?
Thanks ahead of time for your considerations,

If you booted and enabled OEM unlock in developer options before you locked it should be able to still unlock it. I bootlooped mine yesterday. Unlocked it again and flashed boot.img to fix the bootloop. If can't unlock not much can do I think. Never lock right after flashing without booting first and enable unlock in settings. If have TWRP may be able to sideload a rom and boot it.

well, the only way for you to unlock your bootloader and flash anything would be to boot up and enable oem unlocking. but you cant do that. do you havd twrp recovery installed by chance? your only option is to fastboot format your cache and fastboot format your user data. yes, thats your only option. otherwise your n6 is essentially a brick.
Tarp is installed... Step by step needed
Could you forward me a step by step?

Hello everyone,
I'm in a little trouble. I need to install custom recovery on my Xperia SP C5302 but I have no PC.
How can I install TWRP ( preferred ) / CWM/Philz on my device ? Is there any way ?
Thank You.
Note : There's a cyber cafe beside my house. But all their computers are running Windows XP.
If there's no way to install without PC then can I be able to install custom recovery on my device with Win XP ?
Thanks again.

Most likely soft brick. But who knows, hard bricks even happen when they never touched anything for some people.

Install a terminal emulator by Jake Pelvich from Play store.
Extract the official TWRP img from the TWRP fota zip, or, if you already downloaded an official img, put it into the root of your internal storage.
For ease of access, but still mnemonic, rename the img into "twrp.img"
Open your terminal emulator, and enter "su" and run. This will make the terminal to request root, as you're elevating the shell into root.
Now, we "dd" the TWRP image into your FOTA partition. Copy and run the following:
Code:
dd if=/storage/emulated/0/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel bs=4096
Reboot to check if recovery is accessible after hitting volume up when LED lights up

There is no LED during bootup. Either I didn't understand. I tried with software to boot into recovery. But my device just complete a reboot everytime. What to do ?

What ROM are you using? You need a ROM that can boot a FOTAKernel recovery, and not all of them can (especially stock based ones, since stock by default doesn't allow this).
Ditto.
If you are not using a ROM that supports booting from TWRP, then I can't suggest a method to install other recoveries without a PC.
I do not say it is impossible though, but it'll take a lot of brain power, and moderate understanding of shell scripting in order to reverse engineer the other recoveries provided in the dev subforum.

I tried with Terminal Emulator and it seems okay. But I can't boot into recovery. Tried a lot of process. Doesn't work. Now can I install TWRP with pc ? or I need to flash my stock back to install from PC as I replaced my stock img file ?
Again if I flash stock now, will my bootloader be locked again ?

Like already explained by Tomoms and me, you need a ROM that supports booting recovery from the FOTA partition in order for my explained method to work. You didn't also tell us which ROM you are using.
No, you dont need to flash your stock back. Leaving the FOTA partition replaced does no absolute harm at all.
If you flash stock, your bootloader will still remain unlocked. In order to relock, you will need to explicitly relock it, by using the relock bootloader option provided by flashtool. If you backed up your TA partition, restoring it will automatically relock your bootloader.

Okay thanks everyone. I finally installed TWRP, CWM as well as Philz.
I was using 4.3 Stock. Finally installed those from Doomlord's thread. That was really handy to use.
again thank you all for supporting me.

Well, I think that tells you what you need to do. I have soft bricked my m8 quite a bit, but have been able to atleast get to the bootloader and then get to recovery. If you need stock firmware to flash I am sure you can find it here.
