Hi Guys,
I think I have no lucky these days...
I was testing a new ROM and when a returned the backup with TWRP android asked me a patteren for unlock.
The patter I usauly use dont work.
I found a help that say to erase some files in /data/system but it doenst work...
I had a idea to block the cell with my google account and set a new PIN for unnlock... It doenst work
Now I have the cell blocked by google and its impossible to access the internal memory with TWRP...
I need help... I dont know what to do...
Please !!!!
Sounds like your only way back is to format/delete all your data and start from scratch. You can use fastboot to do this.
I think this is the way... but I never did this before...
Do you know a step by step to do this !?
If I understand rightly you have a Google locked phone. I have not tried this on the OP3T but if you are able to reach the boot up screen where Google asks you for the password/pattern lock, you can try inserting an OTG drive of any capacity into your device. The phone will ask for changing storage. After clicking 'OK' you will be taken to the storage section. Go to 'Apps' and from there to 'Setting'. If you are able to reach this far, do a complete reset from that 'Settings' section and you would be able to recover your phone. I repeat, I have not tried this on the OP3T but have successfully tried this on some other phones. Best of luck and hope you get back your toy.
Let me also add that you won't be able to recover a Google blocked phone by factory resetting from recovery. The only way to do this is to reset it from the settings section of the OS itself after you have booted up.

Perfect!
I did exactly this and now I recovery the cell...
Thanks a lot!
You save my day!
I tried to unlock my phone with a fingerprint And the phone just cannot be
unlocked. It immediately going to the PIN screen, which I don't think I
have.
Tried with Android device manager, but loclisation is desabled
Is there any way I could reset it in other way?
I don't want to do factory reset this will erase all my data and I don't
want that.
please help and thanks
If you want to somehow unlock it, you will need to turn it's internet on (aka Data OR WiFi) and using your Google account, unlock it. It does not need location for that.
If that does not work, sorry but you'll have to factory reset it. Before doing that, try to get your personal data by plugging in a USB to a PC it already trusts. If that will won't work, your data will be unfortunately lost.
Try looking up a tutorial online, maybe they'll know how to hack the phone.
Using Odin files to update a Samsung AT&T model will almost always result in a factory reset being performed, and I've also seen the same thing happen when trying to update via OTA zip in Recovery. I'm providing this package for anyone still using the S5, to be able to update software without needing to do a factory reset. I have personally verified that these files will perform the update without wiping any data. These files will update you to the Build/Baseband ending in QD1, Android 6.0.
My zips are compressed extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc.
Happy flashing!

Worked great..Thanks! But....
You are theman for this! I have a 900A AT&T and have struggled for days to get it unlocked, upgraded and working without tripping the secure software alert. I started with a 4.X maintenance OS, then rooted, SafeStrapped then pushed this update via ODIN and it worked. Now, the only issue i am having is apps crashing continuously. Started with google play and play services now spreading. I ASSUME this is due to apps not getting updated in the update to 6.X. Correct me if I am wrong. I have updated those via APKs along with others to new versions yet it still happens. Now its also Chrome, File manager etc. Is this maybe a code bug, or am I missing something here? Thanks again

No idea. Can't really diagnose app crashes - too many possibilities.
Also: hopefully you're now aware that you're not rooted any longer and (probably) can't ever root it again

Yeah I saw that, but thats ok. My biggest objective is to get it unlocked from AT&T so I can use it (this whole venture has just turned into a learning/fun toy to play with now) on my carrier. That is yet TBD. Any thoughts on that?

Thanks in advance for any help, short version at top, details below.
-- Short version:
Please help me recover my data, and phone if possible.
I need the data, esp texts and notes, for both personal (some family members have passed on) and business.
I have a new Galaxy S21 and / or PC Smart Switch ready to receive data backup if we can evacuate it from the S5.
ODIN flash seems to pass but has 'Resizing Data' fail, and phone still won't boot past AT&T logo screen.
All web searches seem to say Factory Reset is my last option, but I don't want to lose the data.
Please share ANY advice on how I can recover the data.
-- More details:
Phone = SM-G900A Samsung Galaxy S5 AT&T
Use = pristine, never rooted, modded, or unfortunately backed up
Status = will not boot, passes screen 1 'Galaxy S5', screen 2 'Samsung script', then stops on screen 3 'AT&T globe logo'
More details = Used clean for ~7 years, then on day x, saw phone automatically complete a system update (green screen, sprockets, "your phone is updating"), which was surprising as it's years after it is no longer supported by AT&T. After that update, I continued to use the phone that day, but it then rebooted automatically and stuck on the AT&T globe logo.
Attempts to fix = soft reset, battery pull, can't get into SAFE MODE, can get into and out of recovery mode, found this firmware (THANKS @iBowToAndroid), used multiple ODIN (Odin3 v3.13.3_3B_PatcheD, Odin3 v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD) to flash it (my first Android flashing experience). On flashing process, ODIN on PC shows 'PASS' and log shows "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0)", but phone shows 'Resizing Data' failed:
"

THANKS for the quick reply, very much appreciate your help.
Am I really left with only a Factory Reset and then trying to use Data Recovery software to get ‘some’ data back?
I really don't want to give up on the data, so I'm still trying anything I can think of in research and repeated attempts.
More details:
I have tried the recovery mode 'Wipe cache partition' option before and after using ODIN.
I've tried doing it 'twice' per recommendation of some of the web advice I've read in trying to research this.
I've noticed that sometimes the colored highlight of the 'Reboot to bootloader' option then turns background green instead of usual blue, but I don't know why, or if that matters.
Still, the ODIN flash effort always returns the permission error, and the boot always sticks on the AT&T logo.
The string seems to indicate a 'user data' permission error?
Is there any way to debug the logic of the firmware or slog through the 'Recovery Logs' to determine and resolve the cause of the permission error?
When the problem began, I had an SD card and SIM card loaded.
I've since removed both in trying to address this, also per 'web advice'.
Any chance putting them back in helps somehow?
Any other options available via apply update from SD card or ADB?
Any way to setup the Android OS as a secondary drive to another machine to pull data out that way?
I've done similar things with Windows OS in PC environment, but I'm not seeing anyone trying that with Android.
If I am really stuck with factory reset, are there any data recovery programs I could try afterward that work with the G900A?
So far I've looked at Dr Fone, Tenorshare, EaseUS, FonePaw, and D-Back, and none seem to work with the AT&T model variant.
Maybe that's just because they don't have access to AT&T firmware available to install, but if I clear the stuck boot via FR, they then might be able to get some of my data back via drive scan - whatever data is not truly overwritten by the FR?

I own and run a business that performs SIM unlocking and other software-related services for mobile devices, so we see situations like yours quite a bit. And I don't know of anything else that you can do. From reports, we've heard that none of those "recovery services" actually work to recover any data, after a reset

You can never trust a mobile device 100%, especially not one that's 7 years old. That's why anything that's that important needs to be backed up at all times

Totally agree, and totally on me for not having a backup.
I was just foolish enough to not know yet how easy it is to back up.
Give me 10 minutes of life again now in this phone, I use Smart Switch to backup, and I'm off to a new phone, or even FR on this one and reload.
Now where did I put my Delorean...

Have you ever tried a 'combination key' approach to get data access?
As in...
Smart Switch on PC won't connect, but ODIN does show 'Added'.
I don't understand the granular details, but hoping you might...
Could we use both Smart Switch and ODIN in some combination sequence that would allow Smart Switch to pull the data off to a Smart Switch PC backup that I could then throw onto a new phone?
When it's in Downloading (firmware flashing) mode, a modem port is used. The modem port is also there when the device is booted up in Normal mode, but that's not useful for extracting any data off of it. I don't know what Smart Switch uses, but I would assume File Transfer (MTP) and/or ADB. And those aren't fully functional until the device fully boots up.
Do you have a screen lock on the device?

No lock on device, just swipe to go from 'lock screen' to home screen, prior to this boot problem obv.
One of the data recovery sw that I tried (EaseUS I think) did reach a screen asking me to enable USB debugging to continue, but I don't think I can do that without booting up.
I 'think' I remember that screen saying something like 'MTP device' connected, when it asked me to do that.
Any way to sneak into MTP mode from that?

Any 3rd party software will require ADB to be enabled. Smart Switch is the only one that *might* work just over MTP, but I'm pretty sure MTP doesn't fully load until the device is booted. Even if it did, you would likely need to allow on the popup message. Does the phone show up as a device/drive when it's plugged in while sitting on the AT&T logo?
I think you're asking "does the phone show up as a device/drive" in something like a windows file explorer, and the answer is unfortunately no, or at least not that I've found yet - I've tried several times now, and I'm still trying any combinations I can.
For now...
I can get EaseUS to show 'MTP USB device' per the pic attached in my last, but can't really get it to connect past that point, as it asks for USB Debugging, which it appears I can't do due to stuck in boot loop.
Smart Switch seems to try to connect for awhile, then says it failed to connect, so I think I'm then left with 'Samsung Smart Switch Emergency Software Recovery' (PFA).
Do you have experience using it?
Do you know if it could work to reload the firmware / OS without wiping the data?
AT&T Advanced Technical Support guy says it gives you an option to choose whether or not using it resets the phone (wipes your data), so he thinks (hopes) that would work, but he didn't sound certain at all.
I understand your point on the pop up message user prompt for File Transfer Mode. I used that mode many times in the past, so I'm hoping it might default on the phone so we wouldn't need to answer the pop up prompt to reach that status , but I'm obv not sure about that.
Per the speculation in my last, do you know of any combination approach we might use to get the desired result, like maybe... use ADB somehow to change 1 parm value to reach MTP mode, then use that progress step to enable Smart Switch to connect so we could offload the data?
Thanks again for your help
1. MTP is the same as File Transfer. So when the phone is turning on, it starts loading that connection. You might see "MTP USB Device" or something similar in your Windows Device Manager
2. But if the phone never shows up as a device/drive (would show up under "Portable Devices" in Windows Dev Man), then it's not loading fully - and it normally doesn't do that until it boots past the carrier splash screen.
3. Even if it did boot fully and showed up as a device/drive, the MTP pop-up prompt shows up every single time you connect the device. There's no way around that. So the device would show as empty, with no files or folders, until you tapped "Allow" on the popup.
4. No, there's nothing else you can do to turn on any other connection modes

Device Manager does show an entry for the phone connected via USB cable:
Under 'Disk Drives' as

Hello guys, I'll try to explain what happened giving just a few context that may help give me some right direction to recover the user data that were in the phone.
As this thread got longer than I expected, summarising:
Moto G XT1033 drained battery, got into bootloop, only fastboot was working, couldn't get into recovery mode ("boot up failed"). When I tried to replace battery, after power on it's now bricked (as "qhsusb_bulk" in PC). My main goal, save user data (whatsapp folder mainly), to flash and restore Android.
Whole situation detailed, what happened:
I have a Motorola Moto G 16GB Music Edition Dual SIM XT1033 (Music edition) 2014, sold in Brazil. It was working for all these years fine, avoided upgrading Android KitKat from 4.4 because it just worked fine. In past months I noticed the battery holding less and less charge, but as I intended to buy a new phone soon I didn't care.
Unfortunately, couple days ago I heard the sound of notification "low battery... powering off". Then I plugged the charger cable and waited some time, after that, I thought it would just boot up normally, it showed "M" loading screen, with the animation etc, but it went to black screen and loop to loading screen again and again.
I tried to hold power and volume down, it went to fastboot, and when I tried start "recovery mode" but it would just say "boot up failed".
I searched for threads and people who had issue like mine and in fact, I found someone who described exactly the same problem I had, user named @ravibhat here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/moto-g-bootup-problem-recovery-mode-t3122492
While he didn't say he was able to fully flash his smartphone and get it back working, he said he was able to recover all his user data. I was really trying to follow his steps to at least, recover all user data, BUT, before that, my Moto G got hard bricked.
As I have another Moto G XT 1033, the exact same model as this one, but with a working battery, I thought it would be plausible to replace the battery so I could have more safety when fixing the phone, but it didn't work as that. Instead, after I disconnect and reconnect the battery, the Moto G is now hard bricked, as it doesn't boot up anymore, not even holding power + volume buttons, holding for 60s or 120s, none, nada. Rarely, the LED light blink once, nothing more. I connected to PC and it recognized as "qhsusb_bulk", after disconnecting and connecting the phone back to Windows 7, it automatically tried to install drivers and now it would just show "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader...." in device manager .
Now I have two issues, first, make it come back to state where I could open fastboot. Second, try to dump/save all user data, to then make a total flash/factory reset to see if I can get it working again.
After searching for hard brick and "qhsusb_bulk", I found this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-revive-hard-bricked-moto-g-t2833798) and this (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/guidy-to-unbrick-hard-bricked-moto-g-t3875035) that says it will recover from it, but it didn't mention IF IT WILL compromise or delete all user data. Will it?
I don't want to just go and try a bunch of (possible danger) commands and guides without having some experienced people giving advices on how to perform actions, or even if it's possible to "make some backup" of current situation, "copying whole partition", etc, before installing and flashing anything.
Device INFO:
Android version was 4.4. No Root. Bootloader is LOCKED. No customizations.
ADB Debugging state is unknown, probably it was just the default value.
What I want:
I want to get a copy of all my internal storage data, eg: WhatsApp folder, etc. Better if I could get whole storage image and just flash OS and boot loader to get back as it was...
Trying to flash it in any way that causes data loss would be my last option, but @ravibhat who had same issue few years ago couldn't even get it back working again.
What @ravibhat found out:
He thought bootloader UNLOCK would wipe all internal memory user data, but he did it and still could get all files using TWRP 2.8.x.x.
"To root the phone, I’ll have to UNLOCK the Bootloader."
"ADB can be used to backup using PUSH, PULL (may or may not require Android USB Debugging enabled)": he couldn't get it to work using adb push/pull.
Please, I would really appreciate any help from anybody, also from following users @ravibhat , @lost101 , @Teddy Lo , @Kamin4ri , @oversleeper , @jdawc7 , @sd_shadow , @SahilTech , @liveroy , @bouba148 , @bejunk , @Wolfcity, @skad00sh, @FabioSan.

It should not delete the user data. I'm saying this out of logic though, I've never tested it.
Technically the Motorola qboot utility will ripristinate the bootloader only, without modifying any other area of the memory.

Thanks @oversleeper, I was a bit afraid because of the "blank-flash.bat" name.. but as I don't know of any other method of beginning this recovery other than unbricking using this qboot bat script, I will end up giving it a chance.
As I said before, Windows 7 auto installed the "Qualcomm HS-USB QLoader 9008" driver as soon as it recognized the "qhsusb_bulk". Do you think I should try to uninstall it and start from step 1 on this guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-revive-hard-bricked-moto-g-t2833798) installing the "Riff BOX JTAG drivers + Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider"?
Yes, I suggest that you install the driver's as advised in that old thread. Also, you will need to use the right qboot utility, for the right model and version of the bootloader that you have or it won't work. Unfortunately I can't help with that, you will need to search the internet and may luck be with you.
Foreword: My time with Vivo has come to an end. After flashing a wrong devicecfg and accidentally rebooting my device it is now in a hard bricked state.
Vivo has locked down EDL, there is absolutely no way to flash or backup anything in EDL mode without the official Tools (namely Vivo AFTool 5.9.80).
Vivo India refers me to Vivo Germany - Vivo Germany has outsourced its customer support to bulgaria.
The people on the other side of the line know absolutely nothing about the technical aspect and refuse to put me through to anyone with any kind of knowhow.
Due to their anti consumer and anti repair attitudes I will not buy another Vivo phone.
With this out of the way: You might end up like me with a hard brick. Or without signal.
Even if this will not save you from a hard brick I can not stress this enough: Make a BACKUP! And backup your data. This will wipe your phone.
This process is IRREVERSIBLE unless you have a split ROM of the chinese Firmware or your own Backup.
THIS or BL UNLOCK will break your portrait mode. No more bokeh, neither in Origin OS nor FunTouch.
Do NOT flash fsg, modemst1 and modemst2. They are commented out in the COMMANDS file.
You do this at your own risk. As said before this might brick your device.
Unlock your Bootloader
Backup your Partitions
Download my Flash Folder and Extract it: Android File Host
Open 01COMMANDS.txt and read the instructions
Open a command shell in the same folder that you can find 01COMMANDS.txt in
Run the given commands in blocks or one after the other
If you do not have signal after flashing you might have to erase modemst1 and modemst2 partitions, so that they get replaced by the backup in fsg.
A magisk flashed boot.img and adb-modded recovery is included so you can flash it after booting up FunTouch once and backup all your partitions again.
Thanks again to @Pervokur for helping me along the way. There is definitely an easier method that involves less risky flash operations.
My phone died on the cross while I was trying to figure it out, so maybe someone else will pick up the torch.
I will not be able to offer any kind of support.
RIP @Killuminati91's Vivo, who died for the cause.
Sorry to hear that, man, you were so close to what looked like an easy switch between ROMs.
I know you said you were no developer but you are still a leap ahead of most of us here. Long do we miss the good old days where ROMs, kernels and pure innovation shortly followed our much-wanted phone when flashing a few ROMs a week was normal.
Thanks for all your help, perhaps one day there will be a way to recover your phone.
Many thanks, may I relock the bootloader when i finished change to Global rom?

how did you relock the bootloader, does the portrait mode work again?
does any one change the origin os /ocean into funtouch？
version？ how to relock after it can switch to funtouch？
by the way, I saw the post on the taiwan vivo phone of fb
the second hand goods, it wrote he change the origin os into funtouch
and he sell this service , it charge 2000 nt dollars in taiwan.
maybe someone can save your phone.

I think the only problem that keeps the phone from being recognized as official FunTouch is dm-verity.
In theory both phone versions have the same exact hardware.
i'm fail in step 2 :RECREATE DYNAMIC PARTITIONS) & step 3 :FLASH DYNAMIC PARTITIONS)
I thought you fixed your issue with I think wifi or your signal, and you were good to go, and you successfully swapped over to Funtouch?? Was there other issues that you encountered that you continued to mess with it and caused your phone to get bricked? Good job getting this far and sharing the info!

I wanted to find a smoother solution for the dm-verity message and the constant "update to fix broken system prompts" by flash-disabling it. Noticed that portrait mode was not working anymore, so I wanted to return to OriginOS, check if it works and return to FunTouch with a more streamlined, simpler solution to write a guide. Signal was fixed but it sometimes would not connect for the first 10 minutes after a reboot.
When switching back to FunTouch I flashed boot, recovery, vendor_boot, and the vbmeta's while trying to figure out what exactly is needed to get the device recognized as IN. Was not working so I tried devcfg and accidentally rebooted before flashing more partitions. -> Bootloop without recovery / fastboot.

Noticed that portrait mode was not working anymore, so I wanted to return to OriginOS, check if it works and return to FunTouch with a more streamlined, simpler solution to write a guide. Signal was fixed but it sometimes would not connect for the first 10 minutes after a reboot.
When switching back to FunTouch I flashed boot, recovery, vendor_boot, and the vbmeta's while trying to figure out what exactly is needed to get the device recognized as IN. Was not working so I tried devcfg and accidentally rebooted before flashing more partitions. -> Bootloop without recovery / fastboot.

did you try using the OriginOS's camera app on FuntouchOS ? I find it when u use the front facing camera, the portrait mode still work. In the other hand, the back camera is not working in portrait mode. I follow your guide and using the FuntouchOS about 2 days. Everything works fine, except the portrait mode and the AOD. Cant use it anymore.
Oh I see, now that is weird that the portrait mode is not working. So even if you switch not all functionality has returned. Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully someone can continue your work, and find a solution for a seamless transition.
Yeah, returning to Origin did not fix portraits either, so flashing the cam apk itself wouldnt work. I am not sure what exactly is causing it, I just noticed it after flashing FunTouch. Maybe it is disabled by unlocking the BL or a hidden eFuse? Dont know if its possible to get it back.
Im in contact with someone in china, vivo service center remote flashing is my last straw to get this back to work but I doubt that they will do that. A cracked AFTool 5.9.80. would solve all of ours problems but we will not see that for at least half a year i think. I've been gone from android for a few years - all the hurdles surprised me, manufacturers locking down their bootloaders and EVEN edl is kinda disappointing.
