i wanted to put the CM10 rom on my xperia arc. so first i unlocked the bootloader.
so now i fastbooted it with the thing u need to write "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and it worked. it wrote "flash operation completed" and then "finished"
now when i try to open the phone it does a little vibarate like allwayes when i open the phone but it doesnt open !!
is it maybe because i downloaded a bad version of the cm10 boot?

Hey,sometimes it takes several minutes to turn on completly.so my guess is that you didnt wait long enouf after rom install.
reboot and wait few minutes.
Peace

Did you flash the zip file of the ROM in CWM? Because you wrote only about flashing kernel.

You have flashed the kernel not the rom the rom is installed by going in to recovery and choosing .zip file which you should have downloaded and put on your SD card:crying:
Download the rom and put it on your SD card then boot into recovery and flash from there:good:

You have flashed the kernel, you must also flash the ROM.

Download and place on SD card these two files:

gapps: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
Boot to CWM (Keep pressing the Volume Down button during boot)
- Wipe Data/Factory Reset
- Mounts and Storage --> format /System
- Install zip from SD card > choose CM10 zip file
Let it flash and after that install gapps zip (without wiping).
After that, on the computer open CM10 zip file and extract boot.img - this is the kernel you now have to flash.

Turn your phone on, and press the Down volume key repeatedly. See if you can get to Recovery. If you can, flash the ROM, and you'll be fine. If not, get a stock ROM and flash it with Flashtool. Then, you can follow the proper procedure to get CWM on your phone.

Your phone won't boot because now you have ICS ROM with Jelly Bean kernel.
Start with flashing ICS kernel as I suggested before.

You can't boot your phone to fastboot mode? Do you have drivers installed? If you flashed CM10 kernel I'm sure your know how to boot to fastboot?
To flash stock ICS download Flashtool and stock Rom and flash it with phone in flash mode.
Sent from my Ultimate LT15i using xda app-developers app

1) Download the firmware appropriate for your phone from this page
http://xperiadev.wordpress.com/flashing/xperia-ftf-firmwares/
2) Download and install Flashtool. You can find the Setup file and the procedure on XDA or on the Net. Just do a search.
3) Flash the firmware onto your phone using Flashtool. All should be good.
PS: As far as I know, Flashtool is the only way to get yourself out of a brick. Happened to me once, worked like a charm. Give it a try and see how it goes.

how to flash it with flashtool if computer doesnt reqconize the phone?

Drivers are in Flashtool's installation folder. Install them from file Flashtool-drivers.exe
To boot to fastboot your phone must be turned off. Press and hold Menu button, plug in USB cable to your phone and plug the cable to the PC.
If your LED turns blue you can release Menu button - you are in fastboot.
(To get to flash mode it's the same procedure, but you hold Back button and LED turns green.)
So, boot to fastboot.
In Flashtool click thunder icon and choose Fastboot mode:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now click 'Select kernel to Flash' and locate your kernel:

Keep trying. It took me several attempts before Flashtool detected my phone and was able to flash the firmware. Still, if nothing's working, I believe a trip to the service center is warranted.

How to unlock bootloader on Note 2

Hi there,
This may seem like a daft question but i have just rooted my Note 2 using Odin and i went ahead and installed CWM from the play store.
However, i don't seem to have the option of making a backup of my current ROM.
All it gives me is (in blue)
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache.
This worked on my HTC One X, am i doing something wrong? My Note 2 was purchased as SIM free from phones4u.
I'm on android version 4.1.2, baseband version N7100XXDLK7, BUILD NO. JZO54K.N7100XXDMB2., MODEL NO. GT-N7100.
Could my bootloader still be locked? Is this causing the issue?
Any help would be much appreciated!

Just flash CWM/TWRP recovery.
Here is one of it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028103

Loading default android recovery even though TWRP successfully installed
Hi,
I am not sure if I should've started a separate thread for this, please move this if this has to be a separate thread but I've mentioned below why I am posting here.
My phone Galaxy note 2 International version GSM is rooted and I installed TWRP through Goomanager and I got a message stating that "Recovery was successfully installed". After this I shut down the phone and pressed Volume up + Home + Power to go into recovery mode and it still goes into the Android default recovery mode. I tried installing it again and still faced the same issue.
Since I was having a problem, I thought I will install TWRP through Odim 3.7. So, I connect PC to my phone and downloaded the openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1-n7100.img.tar.md5 and opened Odim in administrator mode and clicked on PDA >> Start. Within a second I got an error stating "odin downloader has stopped working". I went to task manager and shut down Samsung KIES and tried again but still got the same error.
Next, I tried using the Samsung Note 2 Toolkit. Before I installed TWRP through option 5 in the toolkit, I wanted to Rename Recovery Restore files (if present) as suggested by the toolkit. When I chose this option, I get an error stating adbd cannot run as root in production builds. When I googled this error, it went to a post which said that the bootloader needs to be unlocked.
But then the previous post says that I need TWRP for unlocking the bootloader and I'm doing all this to first of all install TWRP.
Apart from this, as additional Info, when I open ROM Manager - Under Recovery Setup - Current Recovery is Team Win Recovery Project. When I choose to reboot in Recovery mode from the application, it goes to the Android System Recovery. No matter what I do, TWRP recovery just does not seem to open up.
I'm pretty clueless now as to what other options I have or if I have messed up somewhere
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi yahyoh -
The problem as I've described in my post is that I am unable to go into TWRP Recovery mode, I've installed the scripts using goomanager several times but when I shut down the phone and press volume up + Home + Power, it goes to Android Recovery mode and not the TWRP Recovery mode.

Yahyoh,
Thank you for your response but if you see my original post, I have mentioned that I had already tried Odin 3.7 and put my phone in download mode and got the blue color showing ID: COM but when I pressed start, Odin gave an error stating odin downloader has stopped working and the only dialog box was to close. So, once I press START, I get a error message in a second and have to shut down. I did make sure that I have the correct tar version as I downloaded from TWRP's website directly for N7100. I did make sure that Kies was also closed.
After this I tried using Toolkit and that didn't help as well. Kinda going crazy why such a simple thing is getting to become a irritating problem, been sitting on this for the past 4 hours.

I have tried downloading odin 4 or 5 times. The cable I have is brand new samsung cable. Right now, I dont have another pc but might have to go to a friends and try if that helps. I do have a mac but not sure if there is mac version of odin. I'm attaching a picture of what I see when I press volume up + home+power.

Hi,
1. Check that USB drivers are properly installed.
2. Your USB cable is proper and allows you to charge your phone as well as copy data from your PC.
3. Change USB port and try again. (This has worked in my case)

Usb drivers are installed properly. PC reads the phone as soon as itd connected. Tried three different usb ports that is available in my laptop. The phone does get charged when it's connected and I'm able to transfer data. Only thing left to try is a different pc.

Since ur already rooted, y not flash via mobile odin app? Untar to internal storage and rename the twrp image to recovery.img (btw theres a newer v2.5.0.2) and let mobile odin look for it.
Or u can dump the image directly to ur recovery partition using terminal apps:
Code:
su;
dd if=/storage/sdcard0/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 bs=4096;
sleep 5;
reboot;

Hi Nazar78,
Mobile odin app is not free, it needs to be purchased. I already have the twrp image in the internal storage and was looking around if there was a free version of mobile odin app somewhere but couldn't find it.
I do not know how to use terminal apps and not familiar with the commands etc. So didn't wanna try that and mess it up. As a temporary solution I have installed CWM latest version using Rom manager but TWRP would be much better as it seems to be more user friendly.
If you could tell me how to enter this terminal apps page, I will probably follow the codes you have given and see if that helps.
Thanks

just install Android Terminal : https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImphY2twYWwuYW5kcm9pZHRlcm0iXQ..
then type via keyboard what @Nazar78 wrote in the terminal

Just download any free terminal emulator app from play store and enter those commands per line each.
Btw u mentioned previously about adbd can't run on prod builds, its because the adbd binary in ur rom is stock, u need a patched one. Look for app called adbd insecure by CF. Or any custom builds should do the trick...

To flash recovery, tou need not to have paid version of mobile odin

Thank you
Thanks Nazar78, Yahoyoh and Ketan, It's about 1:30am now, so I'm gonna shut down now and try these tomorrow. WIll get back with updates. Appreciate.

Also if you have installed EMET, a Microsoft software to stop security exploits, disable it.
It's cause me issues in the past.

I've also seen reports of people not having odin running properly when the kies process runs in the background. This was always the case when flashing with the Galaxy s, and might be a rare occurance with the note 2 too.

If you have custom recovery send rom.zip using adb.
Rom should be smaller for faster update.
Adb push rom.zip /sdcard/
And wait till finish.
Or goto download mode and use kdz updater and flash any 1gb or less kdz

Hi atifish. Initially, all i got was the LG logo, but i managed to get into download mode. I tried using the kdz update but i always got a phone not found error. I uninstalled-restarted-reinstalled the LG drivers on my windows 8 laptop but still got the same error. I checked Device Manager and i dont get any LG modem (so i cant disable). All i'd get is this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Tried a windows 7 laptop and was able to disable the LG modem, but the kdz update never finished flashing. I know to ignore the error messages but i had been more than an hour.
**** Just ow i noticed that this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010624 indicates that i should select CS Emergency. However on another guide (the one i followed) it said to use Emergency. Was that the reason why i couldn't get a successful kdz update on Windows 7?
Now my LG only goes into Download mode and can't get anything else.
Please help! Im not familiar with the steps to do adb..

using windows 7 laptop with internet working
1: put phone in download mode
2: plug in the phone
3: windows should start installing drivers now, wait for it to finish
4: open kdz updater, put it in emergency/ cs_emergency (iv tested they all work just fine)
5: flash the kdz file which is 1GB or less
if phone boots good but still wipe anyway.
if phone doesn't boot, gets into boot loop, do a wipe using recovery (learn how get into recovery if you dont know, remember if stock recovery you will loose all your files).
NOTE:
if you are on custom recovery and want to retain files/pictures goto recovery first and format system partition and than do all the steps above, no need to wipe this time.
ofcourse you already formatted, this is for future reference, don't get confused.

How long does the flash process take? i not sure if im using the proper kdz updater... i have two versions, one with the LGP920.dll and the other with LGP880.dll... neither work for me. Process just stops during updating... and i wait 30-45 minutes.
and do i still use the windows enabler and disable the LG modem?

No dll required, what are you using?
I don't enable windows enabler on win7 but you can. No need to disable anything.
Usually takes 7 8 minutes before phone boots.

HELP: I accidentally wiped OS off my phone in TWRP

I'm a newbie with this.. I got my Nexus 5x a few weeks ago. With the instruction of someone else i unlocked the boot loader and rooted my phone. then i had an issue with boot looping after some customization on my phone. so i attempted to wipe all that stuff off my phone is TWRP and i accidentally checked system. Now what do i do? Now i don't really know what a rom is or adb side loader or something like that.. i need some simple and clear instructions to get my phone working again. preferably without having to root all over again (that was exhausting and quite difficult, lots of trial and error).. but if it won't be rooted anymore, it's better than nothing. Please help!!

You only removed system you should still be able to get into bootloader.
Turn phone off, hold the volume down button then power button.
Should go to a screen with a android man laying down and it saying fastboot mode in red.

You are now in fastboot mode and bootloader is still unlocked?
Download and install this http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/
Wait for it to load the try auto detect on the window that pops up, if that doesn't work select "nexus 5x" and then on the next one choose the one ending with "mhc19q" click next/continue.
then on the next window click download and update all dependances.
What for it to do its thing then on the next window click on "flash stock + unroot", click ok,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
then ok. It will download the latest factory image and do its thing. What happens after this you will need to describe to me as I have not used this toolkit.

@starlitserenity, I can help you get an OS back onto your phone. It's very simple even though you may be a NOOB. It's OK. As long as you have access to a PC and Internet you are OK because you can still access TWRP. Here is a list of steps:
1) go to forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/development
2) scroll down to the ROM labeled
"Pure Nexus"
3)In the first post (Original Post), scroll down and click on "Downloads & Changelog" You will be redirected to AFH (Android File Host) to download the ROM/OS
4)Scroll down just a little and you will see a Green Box with files/ROMs. Click on the newest one labeled
pure_Nexus_bullhead-6.0.1-20160407.
After you click on the ROM file, a new screen will appear with a Green Box that says "Begin Download".
5) Click on " Begin Download"
Once you click the "Begin Download" box, you will see below another Green Box that says "primary download". Click on the " Primary Download " box to begin downloading your new ROM/OS.
6) Go back to the Pure Nexus original post/first post and click on the link labeled "Highly Suggested Gapps"
You will be redirected to Android File Host again to download your Gapps(GoogleApps). Scroll down just a little to the Green Box again and select
PureNexus_Dynamic_Gapps_6.x.x_4-7-16.zip and click on the link.
7) A new screen will appear with a Green Box that says "Begin Download"
Click on the "Begin Download" box and just below another Green Box will appear that says "primary download".
Click on the " primary download " and this will download you Gapps.
8) Once both of your files have finished downloading onto your PC, boot your 5x into TWRP and connect it to your PC and let the drivers install so your Nexus is recognized by your PC.
9) Now that your 5x is recognized by your PC while booted into TWRP, you will need to move the 2 downloaded files from your PC's download folder to the internal storage of your 5x.
10) Now that you have moved both downloaded files to your Nexus 5x internal storage you will need to reboot your recovery. Select the home button in TWRP, select reboot, then select reboot recovery to reboot TWRP. This will all TWRP to recognize the two new files that were moved to your Nexus internal storage.
11) Unplug your Nexus from your PC. On your device, go to the TWRP home screen and select wipe, then swipe to factory reset. Now you are ready to install your new ROM and Gapps
12) Now that you have wiped the 5z again, select the TWRP home button. Next, select "Install". Navigate to your SD card/internal storage to locate the two files we moved to your Nexus from your PC. Select the file that says
pure_nexus_bullhead-6.0.1-20160407
Once selected you will be directed to a new TWRP screen and you will see a box to click on that says " Add More Zips" Click this box and navigate to the SD card/internal storage and select the 2nd file that says PureNexus_Dynamic_GApps_6.x.x_4-7-16.zip. Once you have selected the file you will be directed to another TWRP screen with a swipe button to install the ROM file and the Gapps file. Swipe the button to begin the installation.
13) Once the installation is complete, you will see a box that says wipe cache/dalvik. Select this box, wipe cache/dalvik, then select reboot system.
14) Once your device boots you will proceed to the setup wizard just like when your Nexus 5x was new out of the box. Go through the setup wizard to setup your device and once completed, reboot, and you will be back to normal with a pretty sweet custom ROM called Pure Nexus.

Use power+volume button. You will get thishttp://www.androidcentral.com/sites/androidcentral.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/article_images/2014/11/nexus-manual-update-01.jpg?itok=wEfVvztj.
Then flash nexus factory images. and go stock. You can skip flashing recovery or you can flash recovery again. You will lose root access. you have to flash supersu again

Update? We're you able to install a new ROM and get your 5x back up and running?

Question Xiaomi K40 Became A Brick

Hi peeps, my Xiaomi K40 now became a brick because it can't be installed any ROM, I've tried using TWRP and also mi flash tool but nothing helps.
When using TWRP I've tried two methods:
1/ adb sideload
2/ Install from a zip file which is pushed to device using adb push command(because now the device doesn't have any OS)
But in both cases it shown:
Failed to mount '/system_root' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/system_ext' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/product' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/vendor' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/odm' (Block device required)

I've also tried to wipe all data using Advance Wipe option to repair the partition but no hope.
Any one has solution for this case? thanks in advance!

Flash your device in EDL mode.
Please refer to the post below on how to bypass edl mode authentication.
[GUIDE] How to bypass authentication and flash in EDL with NO auth for FREE!​
Thanks to VD171 for his post.

I think your device is having a Snapdragon Chipset. Sorry but you may try to search on google for contact to person who has authorised edl account to flash a Snapdragon based phone.

listen to me, first if you are on windows 10 you should disable driver signature enforcement on your pc search it on google after disabling you should restart your pc, next step is to install xiaomi flash tool latest (02262021) version after installing the software open it, at the right upper of the software you will see drivers click it and click install after installing, reboot your phone into fastboot mode using volume down and power button, connect your phone to pc and click refresh on xiaomi flash tool if you're phone is detected please come back here let me know

last week I was in a similar situation like yours just twrp and all partition screwed up.
well what saved me was to put dot os 5.2 on a USB c pen drive and then simply installing it from trwp (choosing USB pen as source) after literally 5-10 minutes phones came back to life.
let me know if it works for you.
also if twrp throws any error during installation just ignore them for me after flash completed phone booted just fine

I said USB pen to make sure you choose it from TWRP install I think the righ name is external storage or something similar anyway it seems you are doing things the right way I am quite sure u ll bring phone back to life.
I think muiu room is just fine, should it fails try crDroid or dot os (do not try arrow or lineage)

Bruh I have a very simple solution I guess it might help you
Well first update to latest official twrp custom recovey for your device then
Navigate to Wipe
advance Wipe
Select data and choose Repair or Change File System
Press Repair File System to see if this fixes the issue. If not, continue.
Press Change File System, choose Ext2, and swipe to confirm.
now switch back to Ext4 and swipe to confirm.
i hope this might help you BTW then flash your first custom rom using a sd card or usb if succeeded then flash every stuff as usual

Thanks, I've tried this before, unfortunately still can't solve my problem. Finally I decided to bring my phone to a technician.

Try fastboot erase userdata in cmd after taking your device to fastboot mode
Kinda check different twrp I think your twrp is having any problems plz flash your twrp once again
I hope this will surely work for you my friend.

Bro try different formats then change to Ext4 well try this twrp https://dl.twrp.me/alioth/twrp-3.6.0_11-0-alioth.img.html umm i hope this will help you out completely.

if you still have your fastboot mode (turn off then hold power + vol. down), you should check your pc driver if adb and fastboot driver installed properly, then try flashing stock rom (dont relock your bootloader), I think what cause the brick is encrypted storage that get accessed by twrp, even if you decrypt it using password, you can still brick the phone by manually mount some partition in twrp

Thank you all of your help, peeps. Finally I solved my problem by the help of a technician. Because only technician has access to Xiaomi internal tools, these are "Hardware-Level" which could help in these cases.

Hello, glad you solved your issue, but can you please explain briefly how hardware was bricked since you were already able to reach fastboot & twrp? Since it's known that when you can boot to fastboot, it's a softbrick

I can boot to fastboot but I can't do anything with fastboot becuase I wiped out anything on my phone include "firmware" maybe, I don't know, sorry but this's not my major so I can't explain.
