After only four day of having this phone i managed to brick it. I would really like to know if its fixable or if i have a really nice paper weight. Im stuck on a boot loop, I was half way through flashing a rom when it suddenly shut off. Now it will not boot up. I can load into the bootlader but when i try to go into recovery it just sends me to fastboot. When i restart the phone i can see the old recovery (TWRP)for just an instant but then the screen goes completely black. If i plug in to my pc, nothing happens my computer detects it but it says y device is damaged nd it cant identify it. PLEASE HELP Am i out of luck?
Ive looked around but i couldnt seem to find anyone with the same problem as me (Sprint Variant)
Good news it's not bricked i would put this question on the rom thread someonethere sshould be able to help
There's a Sprint One forum as well, so hopefully you found a ROM on there!

I really hope so because on a college budget i cant afford another phone D:
Seen this in a couple of other places. Seems certain recoveries are possibly becoming currupted during flashing a new ROM.
What you need to do it get back into fastbboot, and....
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase cache
the re-flash your recovery, boot into recovery, full wipe and reflash your ROM.

Can you flash recovery in fastboot ?
the safest thing to do is relock and use a matching RUU to get back to stock

Your phone isn't bricked. There are two tools in this forum that can help you. One is made by hasoon2000(I think that's his user name), and the other is jwtool(I think). Use them to help to flash a recovery if you don't know how to use fastboot.

Edit: Just got done typing the stuff below and saw you can't connect to your device in fastboot? What do you mean by re-installed driver?
Don’t worry, as long as you can still get into hboot your phone is not completely bricked!
The fastboot commands I referred to need to be carried out on your laptop/pc when you phone is connected in fastboot.
Can I assume that as you have already unlocked bootloader and flashed a custom recovery you are already familiar with this and have your computer set up for fastboot commands?
(Apologies if you already know some of this, best not to skip parts out though!)
I’d start with downloading a fresh version of your chosen recovery, and place it in your fastboot directory ready. I’d also do the same with your ROM.
Like you have already done, boot into fastboot. Connect your phone to your pc, and the red text should change to ‘Fastboot USB’.
Then open up command prompt and get to your fastboot directory. (On Windows 7 you just find that folder in Explorer, hold shift and right-click, then choose ‘Open command window here’.)
To check your pc is talking to your phone, type ‘fastboot devices’. You should get a device serial number back if all is well.
Then type ‘fastboot erase cache’ and hit enter.
Then type ‘fastboot erase recovery’ and hit enter.
Then type ‘fastboot flash recovery [name of recovery].img’ and hit enter.
Then type ‘fastboot reboot recovery’ and hit enter.
Hope fully you should successfully boot into recovery now. Once in recovery, mount USB storage and copy over your fresh ROM. Choose to do a full wipe including cache and dalvik, then reflash your ROM.
Reboot.
Let me know how this goes.

I used the hasoon2000 to flash TWRP earlier, but my problems is that my pc wont recognize my phone. When i plug it in it and try to re-flash it it cant find it. When i check my devices it shows up as an android device but it says the drivers are damaged. if i could get it to read it i think i should be eable to reflash somethint.
I APPRICIATE ALL THIS HELP. i really am trying to be as specific as possible :fingers-crossed:
Hey so just a thought and experience I have had with all my HTC phones is when you see that quick glimpse of the TWRP recovery screen then it disappears to an empty black screen......you are sometimes still in a form of recovery but during your Rom flash something (i don't know for sure) changed and it doesn't show the screen only black. So with that long explanation out of the way....have you tried once the screen goes black the
"adb devices "
Mine whenever in this situation would return the output of serial number and recovery so then you can push or sideload the Rom and boot into the system at which point your fastboot drivers will finally be recogniZed.....
Hope this helps a little

I'd say the next step is to re-install your drivers in the SDK. Open up your Android SDK and reinstall them. In Windows Device Manager, find your connected device (probably now with an exclamation mark on it) and right click on it and select 'Update Driver'.
(Assuming you are using Windows 7 here?)

when you are in fastboot, connect your phone using the usb cable, and when you see "fastboot" written in red turned into "fastboot usb" or something like this, do the commands below using cmd window of course :
1) fastboot erase recovery
2) fastboot erase cache
3) fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
4) fastboot erase cache
Let us know when you fix it
Good Luck

(Win8 but the procces is identical.) All my drivers are up to date. Still no love.
On the dev forum is a thread that includes all the latest drivers (including an app to remove older drivers.)
Find that thread, download the drivers and bmp and driver removal tool. Remove drivers with tool, install the new drivers, reboot, connect phone and see if 'adb devices' finds anything.
Also make sure you're using the latest adb.

My pc will not recognize my phone. The drivers are up to date but when i plug it in it says something malfunctioned ?
Hello. I have the following problem. I friend of mine that I've sold him my old rooted Htc One tried to make 4.4. kitkat
He tried to install
Android_Revolution_HD-One-53.0zip
BUT I don't know how he managed to stuck his phone.The problem is when I am power on the phone it shows the white HTC screen with the red letters "this build is for development purpose only..." after a while reboots in TWRP v2.5.0.0
And that's it , I cannot do anything because my PC won't recognize it via USB cable.
Any suggestions?
(excuse me for my English, with love from Greece )
As long as it boots into Recovery its not bricked. Do you have the HTC Driver installed on your computer?
Android Revolution HD 53 requires min. TWRP 2.6.3.3. Your version is too old.

From recovery go to fastboot connect phone to pc.
It must be recognized.
Then flash boot.img which is in the Revolution.zip.
Then install the rom via recovery.
Remember for unlock and not s-off users the boot.img must be flashed befor flashing a rom.zip.

SAME problem (or pretty similar) here, trying to instal ARHD61.1... I don't know how did I screw up this so much...
My bootloader is TAMPERED, UNLOCKED, S-On. Recovery TRWP (2.7) launches but... many things don't work.
First thing I have to mention is that I didn't forget to enable debugging before all this started (and now I can't launch android to do it).
My HTC drivers should be up-to-date, as I installed yesterday HTC sync 3.00.52...
In bootloader, if I type "fastboot devices" I get "FA34HW903605 fastboot", and "fastboot reboot.bootloader" does what it is expected to do...
In recovery, "adb push" tells me "error: device not found".
Can someone help me? If you need more details, just ask. Thanks

Let me try and I'll tell you later. I also think it's a matter of drivers, so I was downloading and re-installing it... Thank you for your help
-------------------------------------------------- UPDATE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, I followed your steps (LET ME THANK YOU FOR MAKING THAT GUIDE) and now the device is "My HTC" as you show.
Something has changed:
If I type "adb devices" (in PC) when phone is in fastboot, the listing is void (before I got "FA34HW903605 fastboot"), and if I do the same while phone is in recovery, I get the mentioned "FA34HW903605 recovery".
In Windows7 I don't see "My HTC" as a conventional USB storage or Memory of a Camera (should it be?)
I've managed to ADB PUSH a ROM (ARHD) in recovery, but now I get an error message: "Unable to mount '/data' " and "Unable to mount internal storage " then FAILED. Now I'll try flashing a new recovery...
WOW WOW WOW!! It was enough for me, sir
1st) Solve comunnication issues as shown in FAQ #2 here
2nd) Solve TWRP recovery mount issues by:
2.a) Installing any other (clockwork) in fastboot using One All In One Kit (eaaaasy)
2.b) Formatting cache, system, data partitions
2.c) Installing TWRP again using One All In One Kit (Android Revolution REQUIRES this recovery)
2.d) Sending the ROM ('adb push your_rom.zip /sdcard/wherever_you_want_it')
2.e) Installing it from TWRP recovery.
An that was all. THANKS A LOT nkk71; without your help I still would be here trying to figure out what's broken... Thanks.

no problem, glad to be of help
remember for most 4.4 ROMs, (for m7_u/ul) TWRP 2.6.3.3 (or higher) is recommended at the moment.
though you should be good by downloading it, then checking MD5 to make sure the download isnt corrupt (that site doesnt work with download managers), then:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter recovery and push the rom
Thank you all for your support, but still the problem remains.
I have installed HTC Drivers and when i connect the HtcOne i can hear the USB beep from windows but i cannot open the phone like a drive.
In other words i cannot add files to the phone :crying::crying:

It wont be so easy, I'm afraid. Even if comunication issues are solved, you won't be able to copy your ROM using windows file manager, opening the phone like a conventional drive...
You have to install "ADB" in your PC (search in HTC ONE subforums, there's a lot of info about ADB pusing (=copying) ROMS) and use it to copy your ROM. One advice: while "pushing" the ROM, be patient: it takes a long time. When your ROM is "pushed", just install it in recovery and... that's it!!
I think here you have a good starting point.

Hey, congratulations!! :good::good::good:
There seems to be a lot of Soft Brick problems going around. Don't worry! I've looked into the other posts to find a solution for my own, but I get stuck at a certain point and would rather not try to steal the post or bring it up from the graveyard.
Basic Details: Tried to factory reset after having a ROM and root. Now no OS and no root according to TWRP.
Data isn't mounting in TWRP recovery, so I can not add a new ROM to flash nor is my device listed in "adb devices"
Main problem as of right now: Data not being mounted
I've tried wiping the data through TWRP in attempts to fix it, but it didn't work out.
Still stuck in HTC logo on boot, unless I go into recovery.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Use the option "Format Data" in twrp. Your data partition is corrupt wiping it isn't enough. In TWRP go to "Wipe" then select "Format Data" You will be prompted to type yes to confirm. When its done Reboot to recovery and you should be able to push and flash a rom. Assuming you know your recovery and rom should be Specifically Sprint compatible that should get you up again
Hi Danny!
I tried doing a Format Data and rebooted into Recovery. "adb devices" still does not list it as a device attached and my computer still isn't mounting the data/system.

What is your device listed as in Device Manger on your PC. ? If its listed as unknown device se Q)2 in the FAQ post to fix your drivers. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52135024
If its anything else post here, if its not detected at all it could be your USB cable or the port on your device.
PERFECT! It's not being displayed as a device attached and in recovery.
Thanks Danny!
Originally it was being shown in Other Devices with a m7 related name, rather than in unknown device. I did the same process in Q)2 of that FAQ post and it worked out!
Just went through a RUU and it all works out too. Thanks again for the help Danny, all is well!

Good to know Glad it worked out for you :good:
INSTALL TWRP:
1- Make sure you have an unlocked bootloader. Get your specific unlock code for your Huawei P8 from this page: https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail make sure to register using facebook method that way you will get the code directly. Make sure to stop adblock extension in your browser from blocking the facebook link.
- After getting your unlock code follow the last part of the tutorial http://www.teamandroid.com/2015/06/07/unlock-bootloader-huawei-p8/ starting from step 3.. By the way in the link step 6 is wrong, to enter fastboot mode simply turn off the device and remove any connections from the pc then hold volume down and connect back the usb connection to pc at the same time; it should power the device in fastboot mode.
2. Download the latest TWRP from here: https://dl.twrp.me/p8/, If there is no new update after version 2.8.7.1 then flash this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65499548&postcount=564. The official TWRP version 2.8.7.1 doesn't work on Marshmallow it will cause an endless bootloop.
- Ty to @rodlane for providing the Twrp. It's working fine.
3. Put TWRP image file in the ADB and Fastboot folder. Then from ADB and Fastboot Folder hold shift and right click to open CMD(command prompt) from there. Once CMD is open run the following code:
adb devices (This will show if your device is connected)
adb reboot bootloader (will reboot the device in bootloader mode)
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery "name of the twrp file downloaded .img" ( ex: fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.1-p8.img )
4. Manually restart the device, by holding power until it restarts.
* A more detailed tutorial for downloading drivers and prerequisites needed which i didn't cover. Ty Sarang. http://www.androidsage.com/2016/01/29/how-to-install-twrp-recovery-on-your-android-device/.
In step 4 in the link to go to bootloader mode for our device turn off the device. Then hold volume down and connect the usb to pc or laptop this will boot the device in bootloader mode. Or you can use the CMD command as suggested earlier.
ROOT P8
1. Download the latest SU.zip from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64161125.
2. Put the Su zip in SD card or internal memory.
3. When phone is OFF hold (volume up + power key) together until you see Huawei startup logo then release. After you boot into Twrp make sure to select read only mode when the Twrp starts.
Note: If you can't boot into twrp although you flashed it correctly, do this:
*After flashing twrp. restart the device manually by holding power until it restarts.
*From ADB and Fastboot Folder hold shift and right click to open CMD(command prompt) from there. Once CMD is open run the following code:
-adb devices
-adb reboot recovery
4. Inside Twrp go to advance-> Terminal. Click select and type the following code without the quotation "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu". Already explained why in Chainfire page. <-----VERY IMPORTANT STEP TO DO OR SU WILL NOT BE INSTALLED AND YOU WILL BE STUCK IN A BOOTLOOP
5. Go back to install menu, and flash the SU zip. After that restart the the device it should restart without a bootloop.
Thanks to @Chainfire for SU and help, and @ralfbergs for pointing out the need to use the command line http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65458498&postcount=302.
P.S: (12-07-16) I have sold my P8, so I can no longer help with any new updates to the device i am really sorry. I wish everyone the best of luck. Take care
Hi!
Thanks, but not working for me.
I flashed the twrp with success, but my
phone has the stock recovery not the twrp.
I cant understand why.
Any idea?
Ok, I got it. The nu twrp is the solution.

I think I've seen somewhere, NOT to reboot the phone with fastboot command after flashing recovery, use buttons instead and hold Volume Up while booting, otherwise custom recovery will bee overwritten by stock again.

I agree with you, I put it there incase someone needed the code. But before when rooting by flashing a .bat file inside the file the code used had the command line without losing the recovery that's why I also put it there. But it's not a must use anyway. Thanks.
I want to ask: my P8 has root, and successfully installed the xposed framework program, most framework programs can be normal use, however, is the most important Gravitybox program can not run, don't know what the reason, who knows what's the solution?

Are you sure you flashed correctly?, if you are, try the twrp file suggested by Voison. Another reason could be the combo keys used to boot to twrp in lollipop its( volume up + power) but i can't confirm if it's the same for Marshmallow.

@Rashad83 you should test and troubleshoot before writing a guide. Your signature says your P8 is still on Lollipop...
@all: I am gonna write a proper howto, not just a quick brainless cut & paste from here and there

I apologize from everyone for the mistyping that is in the command line, and for causing any bootloop.
@AD2076:
1. Since you are so perfect, and know how to read signatures you should know there is no beta rom for my model's region and i can't test the code, but never the less i have got feedback from others who have tested the command line and it works for them http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65555974&postcount=26,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65568736&postcount=29 , and yeah i have pointed to the right command line back then. If you follow my thread towards the end you will notice i have linked a post to the right command line -> "and ralfbergs for pointing out the need to use the command line http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=302".
2. Negativity never solves problems but the opposite it causes ill feelings, I am a human being and i make mistakes that's why the likes of you can post back and correct me, but there is a proper way of doing it without causing ill feelings and embarrassment to others, something like the inbox you could have messaged me to correct the command line without being insulting. I have nothing to gain from writing this thread except helping others in need.
3. You should never take my word or any other for that matter without double checking, that's why we have Google. And my only wrong doing in writing this thread is copying the wrong command line out of hurry which i have my self to blame but the likes of you makes it hard to do any good.
4. "I am gonna write a proper howto, not just a quick brainless cut & paste from here and there". Really..!, may i know what part is copy and pasts beside the command line?, By the way it's "How To" and not howto.......

Looks I am not so good at reading signatures... not as good as you in writing guides you can't try for sure.
others... they probably enabled system rw in twrp

I did and found the proper command line, but in a "guide" I expect to find exact and doublechecked instructions

No one should write a "guide" in a hurry and without doublechecking and testing it, imho
BTW @Rashad83 I am glad you edited the post, you saved some headaches to others and some time to me. Now your one is almost a proper guide and I can confirm it works. Just a few notes:
fastboot reboot is not necessary and can be problematic to start in recovery later
vol+ and power combo works in marshmallows too
to have the combo work please keep keys pressed until the huawei logo appears
twrp-2.8.7.1 doesn't work (I am on B317), new_twrp does
please reformat it better, it's ugly :angel:
Now, just to be positive, let me link this
guide
No need to downgrade to B170 or whatever... it works using B317 from huawei site.
Apologize for your ill feelings

Clearly you are "not as good as me" in writing proper english either.
"I expect to find exact and doublechecked" english when commenting. You are so perfect.
Please don't consider replying, i have had enough of your condescending remarks.
Hey there, I'm having issues getting into TWRP after flashing it. No matter what I do my phone will not boot into recovery at all, it just boot loops for a little bit before rebooting normally. If it does boot into recovery its the standard one, not TWRP. Any ideas?
Edit: My phone is the GRA-UL00 variant, running build C470B181. Stock EMUI 3.1 Lollipop.

This thread is for Marshmallow Twrp and root which is different from Lollipop especially the root method. For installing Twrp on Lollipop:
- Make sure you unlocked the bootloader.
- You have all the needed drivers installed in your pc. i have linked a very detailed guide for how to install Twrp and drivers needed please follow it, here is another one with root for our device http://www.droidviews.com/root-huawei-p8-and-install-twrp-recovery/.
*In step 5 in the link use twrp-2.8.7.1-p8.img instead of the old one,the command will be:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.1-p8.img.
*After that manually restart the device, by holding power until it restarts. Then When phone is OFF hold (volume up + power key) together until you see Huawei startup logo then release. You should be able to boot into twrp. To root continue with the link steps.
I already waited 14 days..and today i tried with facebook account for the unlock code....
"The Huawei ID used to apply for the unlock code has not been used on the device for more than 14 days"
I'm not able to flash anything on this phone...fastboot says it's unlocked but can't flash?

So did you manage to get the unlock code or not?, or is it telling you the huawei id is wrong, and your not able to get it.
No it is telling me that the the huawei id has not been used for 14 days...???

Try another huawei id using the Huawei id generator method. For me when i tried to unlock the code it gave me a message "wrong id" so i used this method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8l...otloader-root-p8-p8lite-t3164956#post62851688
Also i just saw this post he had issues with Huawei id too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65673335&postcount=181
Not working...it gives me the same message that the id has not been used for 14 days..?

im really stupid, i was installing twrp, i did a advanced wipe to afterwards install a custom rom, and when my phone was done wiping i accidentally pushed the power button and turned of my phone. now it is stuck in fastboot mode. i tried reinstalling twrp but i can't boot into twrp, it keeps turning on in fastboot mode
thanks in advance
Reflash miui with miflash, be sure yo untick the lock thing onnthe bottom sonyoubdont lock bootloader, then try again.
Sounds like partition is fked

After flashing TWRP and still in fastboot, hold power and vol+. Keep both held while it reboots, it takes a few seconds. When the Redmi logo appears and the phone vibrates release the power button. Keep holding the vol+ button until it boots into TWRP.

this was the first thing i tried, but it keeps rebooting to fastboot, if i hold it longer it wil just reboot again. i've tried miflash, but miflash can't find a flash all.bat and when i go into explorer i can't find it either.
problem solved, i installed another version of twrp, deleted it and reinstalled the first one. thanks for all answers, it really helped along
Hey glad to hear you solved the issue. What version of TWRP did you end up flashing and what tool did you use to flash it? I'm facing a similar issue.
Thanks

I can't answer for OP, but he looks to have abandoned the thread.
What I can recommend from personal experience is that using latest version of TWRP - I think it's 4.3.3 (can't tell you exactly, as I'm writing this without checking my laptop on which I have the TWRP and ROM files) - will resolve all your problems.
Thanks for your reply I actually just managed to get root/TWRP/Magisk to work. A lot of the TWRP recovery images that I encountered just caused the phone to boot loop or get stuck on fastboot mode.
The TWRP that worked for me was twrp-3.3.1-15-raphael-mauronofrio.img
following:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.3.1-15-raphael-mauronofrio.img
For reference I have the global Mi 9T Pro

I am also having this issue, after doing the exact same thing you did...
Would you be able to post the download link you got your TWRP version from? And maybe go into a little more detail about the reinstalling order (if that is important)?
Also the "mauronofrio" version didn't work (I have the Mi 9T), are there any other options out there?
Many thanks for any responses

Did you ever get this solved? I'm in a similar situation after what I thought was a normal ROM flashing.
EDIT: Nevermind. Got it fixed using MiFlash.

Hey sorry didn't see your reply... I haven't had time in the last month to look at it so I'm still stuck. How did you fix it using MiFlash? Did you make it force load TWRP onto the phone or something?
I think there is definitely something wrong with the partition, as when I plug it into the computer it no longer comes up in "my computer" - although I do have the MIUI recovery working again.
Cheers

I just flashed a full fastboot MIUI ROM in fastboot using the MiFlash portable tool. No need to do anything in recovery.
Edit: You can find fastboot ROMs from the OP of this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/redmi-k20-pro-firmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647/ (labeled as ...fastboot)

I'm still not able to get TWRP working... I think all of my problems will be solved as soon as I can get into it, but each time I load the recovery image on (using command prompt) it says it completes, but when I try to reboot it into recovery mode it never works (if I use command prompt to reboot into recovery it just shuts down but if I hold the button combination it either reboots back into fastboot or the original MIUI recovery mode - and yes, I am using the right button combinations).
I've tried every version of TWRP I could find, so I'm certain its not a problem with the recovery image itself... Have you or anyone else had this happen before? It's so infuriating that it just doesn't work, but I don't know why...
BTW the commands I'm using are
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "recovery.img"
(which works) and then
Code:
fastboot boot "recovery.img"
(which gives 2 OKs, but the phone just turns off).
(this all after setting the directory to my adb folder)
