Former Samsung user who just jumped ship....
Earlier today I unlocked my P20 Pro CLT-L04 (Canada) and installed TWRP, everything seemed fine, but when I rebooted it just keeps going back into TWRP?! I can't boot my phone into the rom.
I've tried re-locking my phone and unlocking, which the phone tries to factory reset EMUI, but it never works, it just keeps failing. I've tried downloading the stock image with EMUI recovery on my phone, but that keeps failing.
My phone won't connect to any PC to transfer files, my internal memory doesn't seem to mount and I've never pushed files over adb.
Can anyone please help?!

Hi,
I've got a hard bricked Galaxy S3 LTE (i9305). I got it with a message, that a software update failed and that I should connect to Kies, to fix this issue. I've tried that multiple times, but it never worked and Kies cancelled the repair every time. After that I tried to flash a stock image with Odin. The phone turned of to reboot, but never started again.
Now the phone isn't turning on at all and isn't recognized on my comouter via USB.
I've read that there is the possibility of restoring the bootloader from an sdcard on other models. Does this method work on LTE models too? If yes, where can I find a image for the sdcard?

Hey all. Appreciate any help, because Im out of ideas here. A friend brought me his Vzw G2 yesterday morning, which he had bricked trying to install cm12 (He's had it rooted and unlocked since he got it), and he apparently tried to install a cm12- compatible twrp, and thats when he got a secure boot error. I fixed it just by using the lg flashing tool and a tot and restoring it to stock, but when I tried to flash it, I ran into the issue of twrp wouldn't flash anything, some drinks were had, and out of drunken stupidity last night we tried to dd a new copy of twrp, from twrp's shell onto it, which sent it back into a brick. Now, its worse, download mode cant even be accessed. I've been at this all day trying to fix it. Trying to go to recovery takes it to fastboot, but, it goes blank after about 10 seconds, and then no fastboot connection can actually be made to the device so I cant use fastboot. I'm on linux, so it does show all of the devices partitions under /dev, so I tried another post's idea of manually dding the entire bootstack onto the device, partition by partition, but that didnt seem to change anything. It's on the 39a lollipop update. Any one have any other suggestions?
Any luck?
No, sadly still nothing. I've tried re-dding a few times, but I cant think/read anything else to try.
Hi guys.
I have a moto X 1058 which I bought to someone about 3 months ago, it's an used phone so I can't rely on warranty.
I received the phone with Android 5.0, no root, bootloader locked, perfect conditions.
I installed Android 5.1 through an OTA update. Soon after the update, the phone began to boot suddenly every now and then with no apparent reason. Because of this I decided to downgrade to Kitkat 4.4.4 (The rom I downloaded is called: RETAIL-BR_4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.26_52_cid12_CFC_1FF) (I am from Colombia and the firmware of the phone is from Brazil). I used RSD lite, unlocked the bootloader, USB debug, etc. However the installing took way too long so I booted the phone while it was still installing (If i didn't do this, the installing would have probably taken 8 hours or so, because the system.img file was too big to download to the phone which is why i guess it took RSD so long). Anyways, I don't know why this happened, I just decided to boot it and see what happened. It went in a boot loop. I no longer have access to the bootloader screen. After two boots I can press POWER+VOLUME UP to get access to the screen "Android system recovery". Where the only options are:
reboot system now (takes me to the boot loop again)
apply update from sdcard (does nothing really)
aply update from ADB (My pc won't recognize my device anymore, RSD litle doesn't recognize my device either, I tried with mfastboot manually but it says "waiting for device" and does nothing)
wipe data/factory reset (tried this option as well, but nothing)
wipe cache partition (nope).
What can I do? I think this means my phone is soft bricked. How can I fix this? How can I get the bootloader screen back? I can't even turn off my phone, it's stuck in this bootloop. The only thing i can do is to stay in the system recovery screen, but i don't know what to do next. I don't handle Android systems at all, everything I did was based on youtube tutorials, so I'm a little slow to understand the basic concepts. Can someone explain me?
Thank you very much.
You don't downgrade Motorola phones!

Is your device fixed now?

Phone has been in the ****ter for the past day. Stuck on boot loop. I tried flashing the most recent stock firmware. It would not do it and kept throwing auth failed signs at me. I tried other stock firmwares for tmobile with no sucess. I Tried throwing them on my sdcard and installing through there in TWRP, but I keep getting md5 auth failures. I have wiped, factory reset, and cleaned house many times. Nothing works. Im at my wits end. Someone please help
I'm a guest to this forum..but same thing happened to me about 5 days ago. Last thing I remember seeing is the 5. update trying to take place and I was just about OUT of Internal memory (with NO microSD card). Phone just kept rebooting. I was able to do a Factory Wipe (Both in the OS and in the Recovery Mode)....Neither worked even though they appeared to be successful. Phone just came back with ALL of my data still intact. The other weird thing...I had about 60 seconds before phone decided to reboot each time. During those 60 seconds I was able to delete files, pictures, etc. to save space. As soon as the phone rebooted those same files were back! Very frustrating. Still having the issue.
im not sure what states either of you guys are in, but you can look on craigslist for people that do flashing. you make need to do a odin rebuild because the partitions are ****ed.
you can repair it yourself but with pure caution.
Have you tried flashing in download mode with your computer through ODIN? If twrp doesn't work, that's what I go to next.
You could also try flashing the firmware without the MD5 file and I believe twrp will skip the check. (not positive on this one)
Figured it out on my own. Flashed CF autoroot. Then flashed 5.1.1 which is the most up to date firmware. Im not sure if the issue was because I was doing 5.1.0 and didnt realize that was the most UTD version, or if CF to 5.1.1 was the trigger. Either way, it worked.
Hello,
I have recently rooted my Razer Phone 2, and tried to undo the root so I could update my phone. I went about it the wrong way, and now my phone is stuck in a boot loop and displays the message Your phone is corrupt and can't be trusted. Something like that. I tried to reset my phone data via bootloader, and that's where I believe I went wrong. I used Magisk when I was rooted. It is a Cheryl2 also.
I'm really stuck and don't know what to do. Could really use some help. I've tried flashing to MR0 8.1, but it doesn't look like it helped at all.
Nevermind, issue was fixed. Not sure how to delete this tread though.
Relock the flash critical.
