Hey guys, i was trying to root my lenovo a7000 using the guide you posted in youtube, i followed all the steps but then i was stock with an error called "PMT changed for the rom. It must be downloaded." So i searched online on how to fix it luckily i found some solutions, guides rather. I followed the steps in formatting my phone then continued with the rooting. It says OK but i cant go into recovery mode and my device is not turning on no matter how long i switch it on. Please help.

Hi,
i tried rooting following the guide Here and it was ok until i had to start and run update.zip i just got a message saying it doesnt exist and since then i have not been able to boot, it goes straight into system recovery.
i did this about an hour ago and have been looking for a solution since and i cant find one on how to reflash my phone back without the need of transfering files as my computer wont recognise the phone other then in odin.
please help
EDIT: please ignore problem solved
i followed the flash part of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769400
Hey guys,
Long time reader and flasher, first time poster.
I just recently made a huge mistake (lack of sleep) and loaded Android Revolution HD for i9500 on my i9305.
I don't know what I was thinking, like I said lack of sleep. Anyway I went through with the process and got to a prompt asking to install SuperUser from the Recovery after Android Revolution successfully installed.
The device then rebooted and has been stuck at the Downloading... screen, I have tried rebooting into Recovery mode, it just goes to the same screen. I can boot into odin mode.
I have tried using heimdall to flash the recovery with something else. But I keep getting the following error: ERROR: Protocol initialisation failed!
I'm having a stab in the dark but I am guessing I have stuffed the partition tables or lost the IMEI.
I have done about 3 hours googling and searching theses forums and can't find an answer.
I have given up and was hoping someone could help me.
P.s. I'm running Ubuntu on my PC and do not have access to a windows or mac system.
Thanks for your help in advance!

Does it boot into download mode?
Thats good, i was just going to say that if you can get into download mode then you should be able to flash the stock rom back
I'm fairly sure I've managed to brick my phone, but I wanted to check before I accept defeat.
In short, I tried to follow this guide, huawei-p9-nougat-emui5-0-full-firmware-b339-europe-vodafone flashed the second file first, and couldn't get the phone to boot.
Attempted to use the recovery tool built in, but it couldn't recover the phone.
Eventually, under the assumption I had entirely ruined my phone, and some searching came across this tool DC-Phoenix-flash-repair-tutorial
Attempted to use it to flash the initial image as mentioned in the first link, which didn't work.
After multiple attempts at various peoples suggestion, I tried to go back to basics, so used the DC Pheonix tool to flash the TWRP image to the device, which appears to have worked, I can boot into TWRP.
I then booted into TWRP and tried to install the stock ROM from this forum, which fails because it cannot mount /data /cust etc
I've gotten to the point of giving up after spending hours doing what I thought were fixes to realise I've probably destroyed my phone, any help would be greatly appreciated
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.
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 Guys
Today iv rooted my Lenovo Z5 Pro GT, installed twrp recovery, all worked well. Then i decided to look for a stable rom, because my rom wasnt allowing me to use mobile data, i was getting error that sim card is not cnc. So because i couldnt find another solution on this, iv tried few roms that i found stable and with easy instal and good reviews. None of the roms worked for me, i dont know why, because i was following the tutorials. And when i was trying out the last rom something happened, when the phone booted to the recovery it didnt asked for pattern lock anymore and was saying : E:Unable to decrypt FBE device. And after that i noticed that my data and system data is missing from the main storage, So now the phone powers on to the boot menu and i can access twrp recovery and thats it. Please can someone help me to fix this
