[Q] Phone getting stuck during boot - Micromax Canvas A1

My phone camera was not working and then I restarted phone to check if it can recover. But now it is getting stuck during boot while micromax logo appeared on the screen. I later tried cache reset and factory reset, but still it remains like this.
Any suggestions to recover this.

As you are stuck at Micromax Boot Logo, I guess there's no other go other than flashing the ROM again.
Just download this: http://bit.ly/1x3BSjy (Lollipop 5.1)
Boot into recovery. ( See here how: http://forum.xda-developers.com/canvas-a1/help/guide-boot-stock-recovery-micromax-t2888234)
Install this downloaded zip from 'Apply update from SDcard' option in recovery.

Thanks for suggestion.
Do I need to unzip the downloaded file or do I need to select the zip file directly?

[Q] MIUI will not flash and is stuck in boot loop

Hi,
I started having problems with my phone a few days ago and today I attempted to reset it. It's now stuck in a boot loop every time at the MIUI logo. I've tried flashing my ROM again but had no luck. When I go into recovery it does not recognize anything on my SD card. I have had this ROM installed for some time now. I have clockwork mod but it won't load! I just want to be able use my phone again. Any suggestions are appreciated!
My phone is an HTC Droid Incredible (original) and I am running MIUI 2.11.9
Best,
Doug

A little confused. You said when you go into recovery, then you say you have CWM, but it does not load. So can you get into recovery or not?
Re flash cwm or flash twrp, and then try to do a restore or flash a rom. If recovery still wont see your sdcard, then reformat it fat32 with a pc and try again.
I assume you tried to do a factory reset from the hboot menu and thats where the problem started?

I can only get into the factory recovery. It's not CWM.

So I checked the SD card using a friends phone and everything is normal. All CWM and MIUI files are still there. When I try to go through my phone however, my PC does not recognize the device.

Are you s-off, bootloader unlocked, or both? If so just flash cwm or twrp.

Yes, S-off and it should be unlocked. On the HBOOT screen there is no option to load the SD card. It's like my phone does not recognize it.

Use a pc to backup and then format the card fat32. Then download this file http://dinc.does-it.net/Recoveries/TWRP_2.5.0.0/PB31IMG.zip and place it on the sdcard in no folders named exactly as it is (PB31IMG.zip). Boot to hboot and it should automaticly find the file and prompt you to press vol up to install.
Or use fastboot to flash this image http://dinc.does-it.net/Recoveries/TWRP_2.5.0.0/recovery.img.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Ok, so I reformatted the card and ran the file in hboot. Should I copy all the the backed up files onto the card again? Thank you for the help, everyone!

Alright, so I was able to boot into recovery. However, when I try to flash a rom (I've tried two different versions of MIUI) it's stating that "some symlinks failed" and I am getting an error:
E:Error executing updater binary zip '?sdcard
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/MIUI.us_inc_v4.1.2.1
updating partition details
and then the flash fails.

Its because the rom zip has not been updated for twrp. Either learn how to mod the file, or you may want to flash cwm http://dinc.does-it.net/Recoveries/CWM_5.0.2.0/ recovery instead.

[Q] Can't root or do anything, Help!

Hey guys,
I had a rooted Galaxy Wonder with a custom Rom (TouchWiz, forgot which version). I had CWM 5 and wanted to Install CWM 6 so I can be able to get the Kitkat 4.4 Rom, but unfortunately I soft bricked it. I flashed a custom Rom using Odin 4.43 Multi Downloader and it successfully passed, but with a problem, it doesn't get to the Homescreen and it keeps of rebooting itself all over again. I can get to download mode and to stock recovery. So I thought I could maybe root it again and install CWM 6 to flash the rom.
Now the problem is that when I use the stock recovery (by Holding Vol Up+Home+Power) I don't get to install the root update.zip because it reboots itself after I press the menu button (it writes something about updating then reboots).
What can I do? Is there anyway to Root the device via Odin and install CWM 6 so I can flash a custom rom?
Help!
Thanks in advance!

Did you do a full wife before you install a new custom ROM? I guess not.

You don't need to root it again since it's already rooted (when you first installed TouchWiz) and it's not the cause i think.

I think your phone is still rooted that's why your having that problem.
So, your problem is that, you believed your phone is not rooted anymore?

Well, I didn't know if it is rooted or not and I don't know how to flash Cwm 6 and I can't use the phone normally since it is not able to turn on to the Homescreen.
Don't mind the older custom Rom, it was flashed successfully and I used it for more than 3 months.

Just download Phil's Advanced CWM recovery, and flash it (CWM recovery 6.0.4.5) Flash the recovery like any else recovery you flashed.
Download the .op and the cwm recovery (Flashable via odin multi downloader ) Here
And make sure you are running Windows 7, and not Windows 8, I have experienced problems flashing recovery on Windows 8 64bit

this might be the cause, so we need do clean wipe of all the data/ files in your internal storage. We need to make it boot first since it's not just a recovery problem but ROM.
Do you still have the touchwiz rom in your external sd-card? If it's still there, do this steps in cmw:
select "wipe data / factory reset"
go to "mounts & storage" and format /system. This is extremely important!
under the same menu, format /sdcard0 (be careful NOT to format /sdcard1 by mistake)
install touchwiz
reboot

install touchwiz (and gapps if you have)

PLEASE HELP Note 2 wont boot past Samsung screen!

Hey everyone, 1st off thanks to all the great people here that take there time to help and give back, much love and respect!
So i have a Note 2, i was using it last night, and it just froze! So i waited and waited, nothing! I tried to power down, nothing, so i popped the battery out and it restarted and stayed at "Samsung Galaxy Note II"
I tried many many times to restart and power down, still come back to the same result!
My phone is:
Note 2 SGH-T899V (wind mobile)
I downloaded odin v3.09, i loaded samsung drivers, i downloaded T889VVLUDNE7 from sammobile.
I put phone in download mode, attached cable loaded file from odin(clicked and unclicked all the correct boxes) and everything "Passed" on odin
Phone reset and got stuck again on Samsung screen. So i
Pull out the battery, wait for about 1 minute and then put the battery back in its place.
Boot the device into Stock Recovery mode by holding down Volume Up, Center(menu) button and Power keys till the Samsung logo appears.Use the volume keys to scroll and power keys to select recovery menu options.
From the menu, wipe data by selecting wipe data/factory reset option followed by wipe cache partition. Finally reboot the system by selecting reboot system now.
and still it is stuck in Samsung screen.
I then installed CWM 6.4.3 with no problems, went into recovery wiped user and cache and installed zip from sd card. It would try and then "INSTALLATION ABORTED"
Re Downloaded zip tried again, same thing "INSTALLATION ABORTED"
Flashed CF Auto root, then went into recovery and tried to install from zip and "signature verification failed"

Actually I dont own this device so I dont know which firmware version are they ..... any chance you have flashed knox bootloader and these firmware don't have know?
And you can only flash zip files in recovery and I think you are trying to flash .tar file using recovery?? Thats y it is not getting flashed..... do this download any latest custom rom zip and flash it via recovery it will surely fix your issues
to what i know it would take some time for a newly flashed android device to boot out of boot logo.

[Q] Burning hours of my life away on a tab 3 SM-T210

Hi Guys, I have had a tab 3 passed to me to take a look at its an sm-t210 and I am really struggling to get it working.
I can boot to download mode and I can boot to stock recovery mode but it wont actually the OS load up.
I have tried flashing the stock rom from sams and my eyes actually sting from reading so many posts on this now.
The furthest I can get is rebooting after flashing the stock firmware then its stuck on the system recovery with E failed to verify whole-file signature, signature verification failed.
I have tried with the latest 4.4.2 to the 4.1.2 and it just gets stuck in to a boot loop as only half the installation is completing.
Tried pretty much everything and just at the end of my tether now
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you kindly in advance

I can boot to download mode and I can boot to stock recovery mode but it wont actually the OS load up.
I have tried flashing the stock rom from sams and my eyes actually sting from reading so many posts on this now.
The furthest I can get is rebooting after flashing the stock firmware then its stuck on the system recovery with E failed to verify whole-file signature, signature verification failed.
I have tried with the latest 4.4.2 to the 4.1.2 and it just gets stuck in to a boot loop as only half the installation is completing.
Tried pretty much everything and just at the end of my tether now
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you kindly in advance

What Customrecovery you have installed with Odin? Can you post a Screenshot of your Recovery and which Rom you want to install ( Name and Downloadlink )
Thank you kindly!

Hi, Thank you for getting back to me..
I have not installed a custom recovery, it is the stock from samsung-updates.com 7.0_WiFi/SM-T210/BTU/T210XXBNI1 (4.4.2) I have been trying to get working but that just goes in to a hard repeating boot up loop once finished in oden that wont let me access recovery.
I have re flashed with samsung-updates.com 7.0_WiFi/S_M-T210/BTU/T210XXAMKF (4.1.2) which gets me a little further as it then spits up a signature verification error while trying to update in the stock recovery program.
I have tried numerous others from reading through posts on here and they all fail at the signature verification or get stuck in a repeating boot up loop.
I cant post links yet as I am a new member, I can take screen shots though i think if you need them for reference.
Thank you kindly in advance
Please tell me , you are The first owner, or is a second Hand one.?
Wy i ask , at Download you can See The Staus as Custom, so it was modified.
Try a factory reset, Wipe cache from The recovery and try to reboot.

It belongs to my friend's son who had it new and I am unsure what exactly he has done to it. I was just given it to try repair as I am usually quite sharp at fixing things.
Yes I noticed that box says custom but was unsure as I have already tried doing factory reset and wipe cache I thought it would return it to stock but it seems to have no effect.
OK, my last idea,
1.Download a customrom for exp. Nolekat to a ext.Sdcard and put this to your Tab
2.Download a Custumrecovery lastet Version ( The one with KK extension ) to your PC i prefere CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433853
3.go into Download mode and follow the Guide from the link.
4. Important , after flashing with Odin boot with the 3 Buttons to the Recovery and flash the Customrom.
Good luck and a happy New year 2015

The Cwm is the Version 6.0.4.9 KK ? Important is KK.
Have you tried to flash the Nolekat with ext.Sdcard Form the Recovery and than try to reboot?
A other important question, repartion was unchecked by Odin !
Can you go to the Download mode?

I have not got an external SD card yet though I am about to go out and will pick one up.
yes, I can get in to download mode and I can also get in to the other mode when the stock rom is flashed.
I have not given up yet and I have not repartition or anything damaging in Odin
Will get stuck in to it and have another go soon, thank you kindly for all the advice and help so far too! )
Happy new year!

Ok here is where I am at. I was unable to get an external SD card today. Is there any other way to get this device working?
When I flash T210_CWM_6.0.4.9.KK.tar.md5 it does not let me access recovery mode, it just hangs on a black screen but I can still get to download mode.
I have to re flash Stock rom so it gives me back recovery mode but does not complete as shown before with screenshot.
I am just going around in circles now and about to tell my friend he needs to get a new one sadly.
Updated screen shot
This is its current state in recovery mode after flashing stock rom.
Try doing a factory reset there in the recovery and wipe the cache. Then see if it will reboot.
Tried everything pretty much..

Okay, so you're in stock recovery. You need to reboot to download mode. Next you need to flash a custom recovery with Odin. I recommend TWRP. You also need to download the most recent supersu zip. Once you're in the custom recovery of your choice, flash the supersu zip and reboot. Congratulations, you are now on rooted stock!

Thank you but i have tried that already. Same result, i cannot get in to custom recovery after flashing it, i can then only get back in to download mode and this aching process repeats over and over.
I am throwing in the towel, this device is bust.
Thank you all for your efforts

[Solved]Recovery mode error in A1 running marshmallow

I myself faced this and if I am not wrong you are also facing this problem.
After upgrading A1 to marshmallow you will see there is no recovery mode in your device,when you start your recovery mode only there is dead Android boot animation.
Though u have tried many times to flash recovery like CWM But all in vain.
I have a solution for them,
After flashing the recovery.img file don't type reboot command just use the following command
​ fastboot boot recovery.img
It will bring you on recovery screen ,then install your desired Zip.
Every time you need recovery mode just connect it to pc in fastboot mode and type that command to your recovery mode.
This thread is for them who really facing this problem
Thanks bro. Really helpful!

If not wrong ur are missing something..
After dead android logo u have to press power button and then volume (up/down) didn't remembered exactly. Then only u will be taken to recovery mode. if on stock recovery
Other wise hitting recovery button only will take u to ur custom recovery.

I hope that part how to go to revory known to all ,So I skip it.After Marshmallow first update it does not matter you are in Stock Rom or Custom Rom ,there will be no custom Recovery mode however how hard you try to flash CWM or TWRP .I tried in 3 handset,all given same result .So, I mention how to get to Custom Recovery in an optional way.

LOL
When you see android bot logo, you are in recovery mode. But recovery menu options are hidden.
After you see the dead bot logo, hold power up for 5 seconds and then hit vol up (or hold both for 5 seconds) All recovery options will be visible after this.
Its a bad idea to use a pc every time you want to boot into recovery LOL
Hi guyz can anyone provide me stock recovery.img of build no. MOB30N PLZZ
