Hi ,
I am new on this forum so sorry moderators if i have posted this where i shouldn't have . I recently got a ZTE NUBIA Z9 Mini and i wanted to root it so tried different methords and somehow i managed to soft brick it or as they say its in a bootloop. Whenever i try to boot the phone with volume up button + power button just the home screen nubia logo appears and it stays there. I am absolutely clueless what to do ... followed some youtube videos to flash new rom using fastboot but apparently it needs back up files which i don't have .
Someone please help me
Thanks !
Possible Fix?
Hey have you tried to boot to recovery? it can depend where you brought it from. I got mine directly from the nubia store on thier website and it came rooted with a recovery system already in place, i had the same issue as you I booted into recovery power+vol down downloaded the rom again or most up to date rom from the website or in my case needroms website . Then i just installed the rom from update on the sd card View attachment 3357925 then it took about 3-5 mins to install and i rebooted it. View attachment 3357928 After this it should be as normal like flashing any rom onto any android device then wolla done even all my apps and data remained safe because it was only a software update flashed over.

I have the same problem.
If I press volume - and power device doesnt go to recovery, it just show Nubia logo on the screen for a while, then screen is black, That is all. If I plugg it into PC, computer can see one part of partiition with -Image- directory and a few unreadable partitions..
Do you know what to do, please????

Don't do nothing I had the same bug here with the logo Nubia again and again.
Just let the phone discharging itself (as you can't remove the battery).It will take around 24 hours.
Put an official rom on your sd card.
When the battery is out (try to power and if nothing happens it's good) just plug your phone to charge (not on pc) and try to go to the recovery.It should works.
Then load the official rom and after you will restore your backup (if you have one).

I tried this already, just without sd card. Problem is, that I cannot go to recovery. If I press volume - and power I'll get just on logo screen, nothing else...
If I plug completely discharged phone on charger and press nothing, then just charging procentage appear for a while and then is dead again.
you can use one-click-tool.
first you switch off your.....try two or three times....or try again and again ....if you switch off your fone....then try to switch on in to fastboot....i have downloaded a fast boot rom..........1.16 version........extract the downloaded folder then first you click on ....z9 mini app in this folder.....and connect your mobile to pc......its start in automaticly.......wait for restart.......ohla....your mobile runs....https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B14zmeE7OLybaW5KWS1rME1Fd0U/view?usp=sharing
Problem solved!!!
This helped:
- Use a fast microSD card and copy on the root folder the original Nubia ROM (you can download it on the first page of this thread)
- Insert this microSD card into the phone
- Turn on your phone and let the battery completely discharge
- When the phone is turned off, press and hold Volume - than connect your AC adapter (USB cable connected to PC does not work), en Should start in bootloader menu
- If you can successfully start the bootloader menu, run the phone into recovery mode and than install the rom from external sd card
At the moment there is not any tool or bin format image for this phone

where is the rom?
Hi @ all.
I have managed this problem using volume up and power button. After first bootscreen hold the on button and wait until the second boot screen turn of. Release all keys!
Thats all.
The smartphone is off and you can return to recovery.

Thanks a million, it saved my phone
Hello everyone!
I had the bootloop problem and I could solve it following your recommendations. My problem is that the original ROM installation process was suddenly stopped (I don't know exactly why) and now I have no access to the OS. Everytime I reboot it, the system goes to the bootloader showing this message:
Bootloader Menu
You entered this screen because:
No kernel (boot partition is bad)
Now you are in fastboot mode
The phone is fused
Then I have access to TWRP or to the original Nubia recovery, but I can't install a new ROM. I can restore backups but when I restart the system it goes to the bootloader menu again. Any solution for this issue?
Thank you in advance!

Hi again!
I finally could flash the official ROM via TWRP. Initially I was trying to flash this ROM from the SD card, but the installation didn't work neither with TWRP nor with Nubia recovery. Then I copied the ROM to the internal storage and flashed it with TWRP with no more issues. Hope this information is useful for other members.
Thank you!

Hi once again, dudes!
As I told you this morning, I finally managed to fix my problem with the no-kernel message. However, after the reboot, I have lost wifi and bluetooth connections. When I turn on the wifi it doesn't even search for available networks. I have tried with official ROMs 1.16 and 1.19 and with a custom multilanguage ROM, doing factory reset (sometimes even system formats) before each ROM installation. Everything is working properly but I can't turn on the wifi and bluetooth.
Any idea or solution? Thank you very much!
Solution to WiFi and Bluetooth problems
Just to let you know that I finally managed to solve my problem with WiFi and Bluetooth. I got a backup of the 'persist' partition from a colleague's Z9 mini that worked perfectly and restored it in my device via TWRP.
RAW format image caputure
hi guys,
Since Nubia Z9 Mini runs on Android 5.0 (Lollipop version) with latest Camera 2 APIs with Manual control over camera, would like to know if the default Camera App supports Image capturing in RAW format.
Also can we use third party application like Camera FV-5 which supports RAW format image capturing feature in Nubia Z9 Mini,
Since you guys are users of Nubia Z9 Mini, pls. confirm this for me..
Thanks in advance..

And how do you let the phone discharging itsel if the initial screen with nubia logo dissappears after a few seconds???
It won't discharge itself because it switchs off every time.
Anyone can tell me what to do?
Thank you.
Problem with Nubia Z9 mini
I've had this phone for 1 month and installed this ROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/rom-nubia-z9-mini-nx511j-rom-twrp-t3142204
Phone was working perfectly fine this morning but I noticed it had only about 30% battery left so I tried to charge it and it wouldn't charge? Tried computer cable, original Nubia cable and even others and nothing charged the phone. So decided to restart the phone to see if this fixed it and now the phone is just stuck on Nubia home screen . Can't restart or turn off or anything.... If i press volume down and power button it makes the screen print/camera sound and that's all i can do.
I'm not the most technical with all the mobile software stuff ect but can manage if guided
Also the phone is becoming really hot
Would greatly appreciate some help with this
thanks
I have a different problem here . I had stock ROM (India) when I purchased. Very laggy. I rooted, loaded TWRP, put MIUI-6, it was better, all working, but a little laggy too. Later put [email protected] The ROM is good (faster, very clean and clear voice, faster wifi etc...) but later found data not working. I read somewhere that the ROM may not be suitable for Indian version. When I want to load back the backup of MIUI-6, I am unable to boot in recovery mode. Only Nubia logo appears with all combination of switches. I am able to enter into recovery menu (Vol- and power). When I select "boot into recovery mode", only Nubia logo appears. I saw the directories in the PC, there is no TWRP directory in the internal storage. I tried to once again load TWRP, in the PC I get everything o.k, but in the phone, it strucks at recovery screen, and hangs. I have to press vol- and power to reboot again. It reboots o.k. Now, how do I get into TWRP recovery? Is there anyway to make data working with the present ROM? I tried all, like, draining the battery ...... etc.... not helping. Some information in this regard will be of great help.
I have tried everything possible as below.
As the above case, I am also using Indian version of Z9 Mini. I have flashed TWRP and then flashed MIUI6 & 7 and after that I came back to original rom through backup. Then after that, once again I came to MIUI7, after that when I tried to came to original rom, I can't. So I have downloaded last ROM from [email protected] , that is 3.61 . I that, my sim cards were not detecting. After that, when I tried to open TWRP , I can't. Just Nubia logo screen. After that I tried One Click Root Tool to flash TWRP. At that time , when my phone gone for rebooting , it's gone. Now whenever I tried to boot the phone or boot into bootloader , only that nubia logo screen appears. When I tried to flash through fastboot , device is not detecting. Why so ? . No partitions are seen on computer . I have tried all above steps , but no help . When I tried that fastboot flashable ROM by vijay2 , phone reboots to bootloader and in computer, it flashes everything. But after reboot , it is as same as before . What to do ? . If it is the case of missing driver , then please give me a link for it.
(its my dad phone)

Try removing the battery and plugging the phone in to the PC.
Start SP Tools with CWM set in the scatter and only recovery ticked
Press Download in SP tools and then insert the battery
CWM should download to phone
If that fails repeat but plug the phone in once you press Download, then insert the battery.

Omg..i have almost exactly the same problem and the solution that MrAAnderson suggested didn't work.Here's how i ended in this problem.I was running VIBEUI_V3.0_1602_7.407.1_DEV_K50-T5 ROM on TWRP recovery made By Pr1nc3V app Lenovo K3 Note Manager [v2.1].Since i had annoying bug with "R" (roaming icon) and "gapps stopped working" issue i wanted to re-flash same ROM.I entered into TWRP recowery,cleared dalvik+cache,rebooted into recovery again.Now i wanted to flash ROM,but it didn't flash it gave me an error,same thing happens if i try to flash stock recovery (i even tried naming ROM and recovery as "recovery.zip" and "update.zip").Rebooted the phone but i'm also stucked on welcome screen where i can't pass it because of "Unfortunately,WLAN stopped working".
Tried to flash ROM and stock recovery with SPFlashTool but the tool doesn't see phone at all,same as Lenovo K3 Note Manager by Pr1nc3V .Right now i'm running out of solutions for this mess i created,any advice will help.Help me please to restore my phone.
EDIT: i just realized that i actually made a "factory reset" in TWRP recovery..not just wipe data,cache and dalvik.....what are my options now folks?
Ok i'm happy to announce that i resolved my problem (after a panic mode on,lol).Here is what i did..
1. Obviously you have to get back on your stock (original,ugly chinese-english one) recovery (in case you already didn't..).To do that i used SP Flash tool.(i wouldn't go into details but if you need just ask).
After that we have following situation..stock recovery + dev ROM (which isn't working well).
2.If you try to flash any ROM in this state it will fail (based on my experience,i tried to flash exactly same ROM which is already installed..no way.).So now next step is to get a CUSTOM (TWRP or CM) recovery,again flashing it with SP Flash tools.
From this point you can choose wher would you go...STOCK rom ,MODDED one ...anything actually.I hope i clarified a bit.
sptools is not detecting my device
Hello,
My phone is blocked. What ? Yes, and really impossible to do something.
I bought a new Lenovo K5 A6020a40.
I rooted it (with SuperSU), and installed TWRP twrp-k5-3.0.2-r4_scritch007.img
Then I installed Cyanogenmod 14 (cm-14.1-20161213-UNOFFICIAL-A6020.zip), and it was ok.
But I forgot to install Gapp, and to be clean, I thinked it was better to do a new install from scratch.
So I install the last version of TWPR twrp-k5-3.0.3-n1_shreps.img, and wipe the phone, then TWPR propose to reboot. I don’t know why but I say yes, and since them my phone block to the Cyanogenmod 14 intro screen : “Preparing to start… Starting apps…”
After more than 5 hours a message appears: “Encryption unsuccessful” (img1). But I never asked to encrypt my phone!
img1.JPG
So I click on reset (the only choice), the TWPR screen appears,
img2.JPG
and automatically “Running OpenRecoveryScript” is launched. Apparently wipe and format again.
img3.JPG
The K5 reboot, and again Cyanogenmod 14 intro screen : “Preparing to start… Starting apps…”
If I press volume up + power button together, the phone stay on the first Lenovo screen (with the Lenovo logo only).
So, before I lost my mind, if someone have an idea, it would be really really appreciated.
Thank you for any help and have a nice day.

ps : I can't show you any images because the forum say that I can't post external link, until it is images's links.
ps2 : and of course I searched a lot on forum and other but can't find any solution, because I can't access to my phone in any way.
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!
Regards from Germany

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.
Sent from my iDevice running Smoothshake v11.3.1
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?
Hello together,
maybe someone here knows that Problem. Some times ago i bought the phone, rooted it and installed a new lineage on it. Everything worked fine. As i didn't used the phone i gave it to my father and whatever he did, he managed to do sth. that the phone always restarts into recovery mode. I already tried to flash a new rom (wiped it before), installed the stock rom, flashed another version of twrp.... the phone always starts in recovery mode and launch into twrp (after i installed the stock he launched into eui recovery). The strange thing is when i start the phone by pressing power + volume up and down the phone boots into the system. So the rom is working fine but after restarting the phone everything starts from beginning, it starts into recovery until i press the 3 buttons again. I already searched for days and tried a lot but still always the same result.
Thanks for reading
Flash ROM using PC and then install TWRP and any custom ROM.
