Back to stock without USB access - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

I'm fairly sure my USB port is broken (after 3 weeks), my phone charges "slowly" (10 hours to fully charge) and my PC won't recognise my phone at all, even in ADB/fastboot. I'm trying to send it back for a warranty repair, but I want to try get it back to stock to see if that solves the problem and then if not for the warranty repair.
Currently on lineageos, rooted with TWRP. I'm wondering if it's possible to flash a stock rom image using TWRP to achieve this? Possibly using one from this list
One of these from the link says "recovery", would this be the one to go for? If so, how would I keep the .zip on my storage after a wipe, or would I not need to wipe?
Sorry for the long post, wanted to give as much info as possible!
Cheers

Bump?

Clean Flash Recommended
Wipe Dalvik System Data and Cache
Flash Stock Rom Beta/Stable
..
first use the wipe menu and then select the rom file and swipe to confirm the flas in sd card just open zip and swipe to confirm Flash.
..
if in bw copying the rom if it stuck in the middle and then close it self or while flashing it say "zip is corrupt"
make sure you have enough space and get the stock rom zip from Official Source.

Thanks for the reply, is it possible to save the rom somewhere that it won't get deleted after a wipe? I don't have an external SD card slot. I'm a little scared because if I get it wrong I have no USB connection to get anything onto my phone ??*

[Q] Clean install of ROMkitchen

I have searched everywhere but can not work out how to do a clean install from ROMkitchen.
I have downloaded my ROM and installed it using ROM manager by renaming it to update.zip (and selecting wipe in the base rom)
Every time that I put one on all my short cuts are still in the same place on the home screen.
Is this just how it works or can I put it on as if it is a new phone?
I even preformed a factory wipe before doing it this time, yet my icons still show in the same pattern so assume that it is still not really doing a wipe.
Please can anyone tell me what I need to do.. I wish to get this running stable for longer.
Through CWM recovery i would wipe data wipe cache format data format system .
Install update zip through CWM as per the instructions .

[I9020T][ROM][STOCK]Nexus S Android 2.3.2, Build GRH78C Factory Firmware

Please read this post in its entirety before downloading and flashing.
THIS IS FOR I9020T ONLY! IF YOU DECIDE TO GET BRAVE AND TRY THIS ON AN I9020A, I9023 OR D720, MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED TO ANY PHONE BY USING THIS ROM.
YOU MUST FLASH THIS ROM USING CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY. THIS WILL NOT FLASH USING THE STOCK ANDROID 3E RECOVERY AS THE ZIP FILE IS NOT SIGNED. I HAVE NOT TESTED IT ON OTHER RECOVERIES.
This is probably more for posterity now than anything else, however I have created a CWM-flashable full on ROM for the Nexus S Gingerbread firmware, version 2.3.2, build GRH78C. This is built exactly the same way that the full OTA ROM packages for 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 were built.
Some notes:
1. Flashing this ZIP will remove ClockworkMod Recovery on first boot. Android 2.3.2 contains a script that automatically overwrites alternate recoveries with the stock Android 3e recovery each time you reboot your phone. The script is located in /system/etc/install-recovery.sh. If you root the ROM, you can rename this file to avoid flashing the stock recovery on each reboot.
2. Flashing this ZIP will overwrite your bootloader and radio, restoring them to I9020XXJK1 and I9020XXJK8 respectively. These are the versions that came stock with GRH78C.
3. GRH78C is receiving OTA updates. As of this writing, the latest version of Android is 2.3.4, and Google is pushing an OTA update for 2.3.2 to 2.3.4.
4. This ZIP will NOT clear your user data or cache. For users running a stock ROM, I would highly suggest clearing your data and cache manually as sometimes downgrading without clearing data and cache can cause problems. If you are coming from a non-stock ROM, you are required to clear your data and cache or the ROM will not boot.
5. Since writing NFC tags wasn't introduced until GRI40/2.3.3, the Tags app is read-only.
6. There is no video chatting through Google Talk. This feature was not introduced until GRJ22/2.3.4.
Instructions:
1. Download the Stock GRH78C ROM package here.
2. Copy it to the root of your USB storage.
3. Reboot into ClockworkMod Recovery (or flash it).
4. Select "Install ZIP From SD Card"
5. Select "Choose ZIP"
6. Find the ZIP file and select it.
7. Wait for it to finish.
8. Wipe data and cache (optional but HIGHLY recommended for stock ROM users and REQUIRED for non-stock ROM users)
9. Reboot and have fun.
Reserved...just in case.
Thank You will post results if needed,i doubt it,again thank you very much,ping33tx
I can access the bootloader, I can access the clockwordrecovery, odin recognizes the device, but I can not access the intern sd.
I can only try to restore by odin
I'm looking rom to use the odin.

Wanted to flash this ROM, just wanted you to confirm that yours is an i9020A, not i9020T, therefore that's the reason why it won't turn on now.
Sorry for your phone by the way.
that could be the reason, i got this phone for very cheap and it was soft bricked so i had no idea if it was 9020a or 9020t (no box with it)
if this is the case, what can i do, USB jig or jtag?
Can you boot it to bootloader?
From off position, try Vol UP + Power.
If you can see the Android logo and 4 menu options, you got yourself a great deal.

He doesn't need to. If he can get to the bootloader, he can flash and boot a recovery via fastboot.
No guys, seems i got myself in a mess. It is indeed a i9020a (the info under battery was erased so i didnt know0 and i flashed the i9020t rom in this thread (different radios)
so this thing is HARD bricked, screen won't turn on, no bootloader, nothing, tried to get it into download mode (even without screen turning on) assuming it was working, but odin doesn't realize its there
so i think my only solution is jtag. I can buy a usb jig but I think that usb jigs dont do anything for hard bricked phones, am i right
Much thanks for your help.

Did I just eMMC brick a Note?

Update 1: I also formated /system
Hi, and if you're reading past the title, thanks anyway.
A friend of mine came with the request to flash a CM that runs a JB 4.2.2, as he was tired of his Note running ICS 4.0.4 ever since he saw my Nexus 4's CM10.1. I did warn him that it is potentially dangerous, but as I do consider myself a non-technical power user in terms of computers, and flashing my Nexus 4 seemed like a breeze, I agreed that I will do my best. This post is a bit longer than one would like, but I want to cover all points, since I feel personally responsible for bricking his phone (neither of us is particularly rich, so it's a big deal).
The first thing I did is root the phone with the ExynosAbuse trick, but upon reading CM's instructions on flashing their ROM, it advised that rooting the Note is neither necessary nor recommended. Upon seeing that, I simply unrooted the phone and deleted the app.
Next, I installed the Heimdall Suite 1.3.1 for Windows upon reading that 1.3.2. is potentially unsafe, used heimdall flash --kernel zImage --no-reboot to flash hardcore's CWM speedmod-kernel-n7000-ics-k3-15-Odin, and not the one that is linked in CM's guide, since the link was dead, regardless I thought I've got the correct kernel and went for it. From this point onward, the boot Note logo had this yellow triangle on:
I then downloaded the latest CM Nightly - cm-10.1-20130409-NIGHTLY-n7000 and put it on the SD card manually vie the PC explorer and then booted into recovery and unzipped it, the installation went fine, the Note was officially running the latest CM10.1 (as required by the guide, I wiped data/factory reset in CWM)
And this is when things started getting ugly.
Everything ran perfect, but for some reason the new ROM couldn't see the internal SD card that held everything (I wanted to put gapps, having forgotten to intially unzip them with the ROM flashing). Nothing made it work, the phone was no longer accessible via the PC, in MTP mode it didn't show on my desktop, and showed as empty on my laptop. Camera mode worked on both computers. USB Storage only worked every now and then with no clear pattern, but both partitions that I could see were greyed out on both my laptop and desktop and I couldn't access them. I Google'd and saw that a lot of people had reported that the latest CM nightly is causing this problem, and to revert to an older ROM. I next chose the stable cm-9.1.0-n7000.zip. I ended up with a 4.0.4 CMod, but I still couldn't see the internal SD card and then decided to try the even older cm-9.0.0-n7000.zip - same thing.
This was already more than 3 hours into the process and I was going crazy so I supposed my next move was kind of retarded in hindsight - I loosely remember reading something about having to format the partitions, and mount/unmount in CWM didn't bring back any results, and CWM kept giving back errors including /emmc/ so I went into CWM and formatted the eMMC thinking that will solve the problem.
The phone is now displaying a battery, but it's stuck on loading even though it's been charging for a few hours now and must be at 100%. Both Download Mode and Recovery Mode are available, and I can flash things via DL Mode. CWM Works too, but for some reason it got reverted back to 5.8.x instead of the recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-n7000. This is the error I get when trying to flash a ROM now: (Status 7).
I decided to not go any further and instead ask for help and see if anyone was feeling like extending a hand. I know it was retarded to wipe the eMMC before consulting guides, but the amount of information is quite frankly intimidating and it made it near impossible for me to know exactly what I was supposed to do. The phone is still under warranty by his Carrier, but we do not have any Samsung services around where we live. I could tell him to go ahead and service it in, but won't the counter give away that the phone has been messed with and void his warranty?
Any help is appreciated!
P.S. being a new user, I am not allowed to post external links, as such the pictures I snapped can't be linked :/

Or else, simply download a GB ROM, flash it using PC Odin and do wipe in stock android recovery. It will give you bootloop unless you wipe.

Update 1: Mounting as USB in Recovery gives the familiar USB Connected Windows sound, but I do not see the device in my explorer for some reason?
Update 2: PC Odin does not appear to recognize the device -- the ID:COM row remains unchanged and does not turn yellow? Moreover, Win 7 claims the devices has malfunctioned and does not recognize it whilst it's stuck on the battery load image. If I go to Download/Recovery mode, Windows starts recognizing it, but seldom shows SAMSUNG_Android and sometimes Gadget Serial?!
I will attempt your (2nd) steps now. I decided to download AllianceROM_JB_N7000XXLSZ-v3 MD5 e65d777f7a519ed71304b7dc73d9eed5.zip and the Kernel_CM10.1_Official_20130328_n7000_N8Mali.zip kernel. Should I instead pair this Kernel with the CM10.1 ROM or it doesn't matter I suppose?

Update 1: I am working on your steps, thank you zai! I'll report back.
I have CWM, but it's an older 5.8.x version. Is that alright? I also obtained an ext. SD card just to get this working, but I read somewhere that it's not okay to put files on it via another devices (my only card reader has slot for only the older, bigger SD Cards, and not Micro-SD). Can I use my e-Reader to put the files on the ext. SD?

Try flashing alliance if you can. Ignore the guide. App is necessary if you want to customize the installation.
Also, I wouldn't suggest using such heavy ROMs in order to get out of a problem. Use something like SlimBean (in the original development section). It is just 87mb and is perfectly safe.
P.S.:Have you tried flashing a GB ROM via PC Odin ?

PC Odin refuses to connect with the Note for some reason, the ID:COM bar remains grey and unchanged.
I have just tried to format the SD card and re-upload Zai's Stock JB and go for an unzip again, but I get the same error returned E: Can't mount /sdcard/. Manually mounting it via the mount menu in CWM also doesn't work.
I will DL SlimBean, but what use if I can't flash it? Thanks for your help

[Q] How can I flash a custom rom AFTER wiping /data ?[solved]

I know the title makes myself look like an idiot.
But I'm using CWM 6.0.2.8 and want to know if I can flash a rom that is in INTERNAL storage AFTER I wipe data/factory reset. I saw this thread, someone wipe data/factory reset and the rom in internal storage(virtual SD, I believe that's what he meant) was gone and the device was in a boot loop. He could neither reset his device nor use RUU to get the stock rom back. Eventually he mount a flash disk via OTG to flash the rom to his device.
I don't have OTG cable and want to know if i can still flash custom rom to my HTC One ? If i can , which Recovery should I use, CWM or TWRP?
Or should I just wipe the device in AROMA?
Thanks guys. Problem solved.

I believe it's all based on where you put the rom on internal storage. If you put it in the root directory you should be fine, but if it's for instance in the Android downloads folder it'll be erased. You could also go in to Settings>Storage and see how your data is partitioned, if there's a partition that doesn't have system files on it, put it there and you'll be fine. Also, I prefer CWM touch. It's always been a breeze to use and rarely fails :good:
Factory reset shouldn't touch the internal storage. I do believe the Android folder is reset though yeah. Just put it in Downloads? You could always make a nandroid too, that's stored somewhere else.

[Q] Galaxy note N7000 root fail...HELP!!!

Im a total novice when it comes to rooting. i did manage to root my N7000, but after a few hours my phone became quite muggy...i rebooted it and on reboot it said "upgrading".
Since then it has been unusable, i did the volume up/home/power button and tried a wipe data....phone still wont respond well. keyboard doesn't work, cant get a signal, and its generally so groggy, its pretty much unusable. i managed a factory reset with phone switched on, still no better.
any help would be massively appriciated

First of all if you have properly rooted your android device with (clockwordmod recovery) or any other recoveries etc you need to have a Rom to flash it through this recovery
It is recommend that you must have safe kernel before flashing any ROM. Please download any of CM10.1 ROM from the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789397
Now Get the ROM for your appropriate device from the link below. Select the device and download the ROM. Use any Stable or Nightly version.
http://www.cyanogenmod.org/
Next thing you need to download Google Apps package called GAPPS. Its latest version corresponding to CM10.1 android version 4.2.2 is on the top of the screen. (20130301) using link below
http://goo.im/gapps
Put all the files to micro SD Card. Since your operating system is not working so you may have to take out SD card and put these downloaded zip files to SD card using jacket or your laptop SD card slot.
Now Switch ON your android device to Recovery Mode by Holding Volume Up+ Power and Home Button together
Do following:-
Wipe data/Factory reset.
Wipe Cache.
Wipe Delvik Cache in Advanced Options ..
Fix permissions.
then go to your SD card and flash all these files in order
Flash the Kernel first and after flashing Reboot Your Recovery.
Now Flash

P.S
Although i haven't reached the 'recovery mode' part yet, i can tell you that the only options are:
reboot system now
apply update for external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
the delvik cache & fix permissions are not options
Adam
Here ur options
Two options with you
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
Download clockword mod recovery from here.
Again I recommend using Chasmado Kernel and it will automatically install safe recovery files. TWRC or CMD Recovery
