So.. you got a NEW Zenfone 8. Decided to unlock right away, then flash E-OS (never heard of this before), and even put in your pocket wrong. And now you want to unlock it again? And let us not forget you're a newbie.
I'm not trolling but next time always read how to revert back or somekind of backup plan when you do some flashing. You didn't even mentioned any way you tried to get it working again.
Guys pls help this poor guy.

hello.
this e/OS (https://doc.e.foundation/devices) is a siple system but fairly new.
yes, that would have been smart with the backup... So with adb I can't get into the cell phone, I can connect with fastboot. this E/OS only runs when the phone is unlocked.. I previously unlocked it with the original tool from Asus (unlock.apk) But if the cell phone is lying on its side in the suitcase and accidentally presses all 3 buttons at the same time, the cell phone will be locked again! I didn't know that... and can you unlock this phone with fastboot? or with programs completely flash on original? Best Regards!
Hi, I can suggest you try the instructions in this post, the install of /e/OS most likely failed and now it doesnt get past the bootloader. The device is probably fine. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/full-recover-to-stock-if-things-went-really-bad.4337467/
worked!
but important! You first have to deactivate the digital driver signature in Windows 10!! otherwise driver fragments will be missing when flashing!!
Had to flash twice, and the procedure worked!
many thanks to everyone!
PS: what tool do you use for your backups?

I personally do not store anything really important on my phone, so no backups apart from Google photos and manually uploading my important files.

million thank

cant even install the HARDSPL http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
sob sob....someone plz help
Touch screen not functioning or no picture due to screen itself not functioning? Anything specific happen that might have caused this? Still under warranty?
the touch screen not functioning at all. i didnt do anything thing before that.it just happen all i did to clear the storage and try to flash with some other roms but not successful.
no more warranty.
thanks for ur reply Guilf. or any other method that i can flash the roms? since i not even able to do anything. but i still can able to go into the bootloader. anything roms that works on the bootloader ?
i still not able to install the HARDSPL and SUPERCID
I've never heard of a ROM negatively impacting the touchscreen - so I'd be somewhat surprised if it fixed it. However, anything is worth the effort.
FYI - you don't need to SuperCID. Just HardSPL. Or try to JumpSPL it. Check for the thread on White Screen Issue during HardSPL in Upgrading section.
If it's still not under warranty and needs to be fixed - PPCTechs replaces the LCD and touchscreen in one unit. $160, I believe. Good luck.
thanks for ur reply, i even try to open up everything and ensure all the cabling is attached propoerly. still not work!
i cant even go into the windows screen i cant do the jumpspl either.
and the PPCTechs is broken link.
sigh...................
found out some scratches on the cable, could it be the reason that my screen not functioning anymore? pplllzzzzzzzz someone advise thanks

No reason to worry, get the roto distro, fire up Odin 1.7 and flash your device.

Before I forget, make sure you remove your SIM and external SDCard, also this is for GSM devices.
Cheers and good luck ;-)

ah this one you mean but if i really got a damaged SIM card slot, i need again a stock rom, how to manage it?

uhmm... not sure what you mean. Have a tab since 3 days, but managed twice to get the similar screen like you, once because i turned off the device bevore the flashing was done (punch me), second time when i actually removed the memory card, however, restarting Odin 1.7 with the above posted link to the roto files, I was always able to flash - ahh.. and once I even locked the bootloader, no other ROM was flashable, ROTO still worked.
I learned my lesson, and unlocked the bootloader as described in the sticky.
You might want to check if you got the correct drivers, also other users reported that they had to drain the device, then reload for 10 - 20 mins, then it worked..
Hope this helps.
You don't have a damaged slot. That is download mode when a flash didn't go correctly. Fire up odin, and reflash. Check all your settings carefully.

dear xda members
i own a galaxy tab for six months. the first time i got it, it was locked to Orange (Europe) under froyo 2.2, but i unlocked it to make it work here in Algeria.
sometimes it get locked by it self after a reboot! something i did notice after one month, and then it repeatedly hapen every week or so, then i decided to get stock gingerbread jq1 (i do like custom roms but i prefer using my device with stock system) because i thought it will wipe the system and let no trace of Orange crap, suddenly i was wrong, because it keep showing me Orange in the satut bar (at least one time per day) along with my provider (Djezzy), when it hapen, the phone force close all active applications and i lose signal for a while, until its gone and got back my provider signal.
please help, any suggestion is very welcome, even if it is a custom rom (a stable one)
thanks
You can try Hyperdroid. It has SIM unlock build into the boot up.
It is more stripped down compared to JQ1 or Overcome.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444240
D.O.C is a senior moderator here now, and doesn't have time developing this ROM further but it is stable.
I use his RedPill 2.0.1 kernel before.
Hope it works for you.
There are other ways to customise unlocking into your JQ1 but I have not seen the details on how to do it.

thank you so much for your quick reply!
i will try the suggested solution
If I helped you, please press the thanks button
i have fond a temporary solution for my problem, so after changing many times my nv_data.bin, trying to unlock it and get rid of orange who comes every hour or tow, i decided to take another step and i made a backup of my efs before erasing it completely, getting ride of efs let android generate a new efs without any trace of my oem, the thing you lose here is you imei code, because the new efs contains a different imei!
any way, i dont have to worry about orange any more

Hi guys,
I need root access on my M7 so I can stream spotify over DLNA. I've never done anything like this before and I'm struggling to find a guide that explains everything so hopefully you can help. As it stands my device is as normal (up to date on EE network)
Given i only need root access for the DLNA, im not even sure how far I have to take this - whether I need a custom ROM or not etc. Ideally I would like to keep the ability to get OTA updates, although obviously dont care about EE branding.
Any and all help is appreciates. Also I'm an experienced programmer, so don't worry about me being 'squeamish around PCs' etc, although by all means explain all you can
cheers!

follow the guide there:

so basically you'll need to
unlock the bootloader
flash a custom recovery
root from custom recovery
unlocking the bootloader will wipe your phone so backup your data before.
unlocking the bootloader will also wipe some HTC preloaded apps in /data/media/preload so you will not be able to use ota update unless you restore all these files after unlocking the bootloader.
you should post your question in the "q&a" subforum next time not in "general"
Ahhh thank you! I didn't even notice that button there when I was looking!
Is there a way to get OTA updates reenabled? I've read it can be done but nowhere explains how. Something about changing an ID code on the phone?
Also, can I back up what I have in some way in case I want to undo it?

restore your /data/media/preload folder or return to stock

Don't know what youre talking about but no
for ota update your need
stock CID that match your software version
stock MID that match your software version
100% stock rom (untouched /system partition and /data/media/preload)
firmware and software version must match together
Hello new friends.

(btw, I tried what it says on the screen.. did nothing.. also trying to flash a new rom did nothing)
I know little about Motorola phones and rooting in general... all i can do is "root" samsung with silly Odin software (easymode right?)
I gave the phone to a friend and after some examination he said that somehow my little brother managed to "delete and/or corrupt" the phones main partition. whatever that means... He was unable to do a hard reset because at some point the phone said there was a problem with one of the partitions.
Now.. while I dont know much about android and motorola, im great following directions.
is there a humanly possible way to fix this?
I can get to this menu below, but everything I touch goes back to bootloader message:
Additional info with numbers mumblejumble:
Thanks in advance,
Dan.

as I understand it this is only the bootloader unlocked, the phone works regularly only that at the time the alert you. There are two ways to avoid this annoying message:
1 relock the bootloader
2 use an alternative screen that hides the annoying warning.
before re-locking take a deep DELETE and uses a script to reload a ROM from scratch
Find it all on xda !!!! look!
