[Q] Attempt to mod my phone now almost bricked

Guys,
I'm a newbie to rooting and unlocking world, and I think have done too many things to screw my phone as much as I can.
Device is a PrimeOU based. (India)
Trying to recall the series of accidents that I committed since last 24hrs on my HTC ONE V.
1. Unlocked the bootloader successfully.
2. Rooted the device successfully and installed CWM and copied the file mentioned in this post
3. Entered the recovery mode, backed up my previous ROM from CWM.
4. Flashed the ROM directly (Later I came to know there were a some other steps missed here).
5. And of course, post flashing CYANOGENMOD 10 was stuck in the boot screen.
6. Went back to recovery mode and here I made a biggest mistake, I partitioned the SD card as the CWM logs were showing that one of the ext partition could not be mounted. Because of this, I LOST ALL MY BACKUP DATA.
7. Again, referred one more post from here .. tried copying files, played around but nothing worked.
8. Flashed again from some windows based tool (Can recall its name, its not in my browser history as well). Installed TWAR.
9. Started searching for the stock ROM and found one here
Tried to recover the base ROM but no luck.
10. Found that I should try with RUU to resume my stock ROM. relocked phone flashed the image again.
I see error 155, which says that I should try with another RUU version, but the verdict is that hboot version is older.... came through another post that at this moment there is no RUU version available that suits the hboot compatibility as of now.
Conclusion:
I have now understood, that should not have messed up so much with my phone without any proper education on android rooting unlocking.
Device is now flashed with some version of RUU and recovery mode takes me to default android recovery screen which again reboots the phone.
Is my device bricked? Can we get it back functioning normally? Can we try the below?
1. Is there any way I can recover the deleted backup on my SD card and try recover again? Does the card get formatted completely if a new partition is created.?
2. Should I take it to an authorized service center? Its no longer in warranty, so they will always be happy to get things done for a price.
3. Should I take it to an unauthorized shops who can get back my phone working?
Any help is highly appreciated.Please let me know if you have any other advice too...
Thanks in advance,
Sumanth

Don't worry you aren't bricked! Right now is your bootloader unlocked?

Ah well, I had to relock it inorder to get through the RUU flash update.

If you can't use a ruu, then you need a custom rom. In order to do that you need to unlock and root again first

Thanks, first of all, happy to hear that phone is still alive.
I just do not want to mess up any further, unless I get a clear step by step process to root it again.
where can I get such descriptive steps that start from ABC....?

Hello Nooby - Thanks a lot for your direction. I will try this and reply by tomorrow (Its 4AM here )
I may sound stupid but one last question - if something goes wrong with this one too, hope the phone wont be bricked?

Hi Nooby - Successfully unlocked and rooted per the steps in the thread. Now my phone boots up and stops in the CYANOGEMOD boot page, which I had tried to install at the first instance. (Similar case just before loosing my backup)
I shall continue with this stock ROM for ONE V mentioned in the post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647052
Observations:
1. I see that CWM or TWRP is one of the requirements for this to work, but I have lost either of these after flashing multiple times...
2. Instructions also say that I should use "Sense kernel Titanium-KISS or Stock kernel".
3. There was an earlier failed attempt to install a CYANOGENMOD 10 but not sure if I'm using a Stock Kernel.
Please advice.
Regards,
Sumanth

Ok this is twrp recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721749 download it and put it in fastboot folder, then connect the phone in fastboot mode, open cmd, locate your fastboot folder and type fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img, then all you need to do is flash the right kernel and your phone will work normally
---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ----------
If now you have cm10, download this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1954967 and put it in your fastboot folder, connect your phone in fastboot mode, locate the folder in cmd and type fastboot flash boot nameofkernel.img, when you type that you should see on your phone a loading bar on top right of the screen. When this is done, just reboot your phone and wait some minutes for the rom to boot
---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ----------
ok so, now iim on the computer i can write properly u.u now that you have unlocked and rooted again, the first thing you do is flash the twrp recovery via fastboot (i guess you know how to do it if you already unlocked and rooted). once the recovery is installed you can go 2 ways:
1) Use sense rom, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647052 this one is very good, almost like stock rom. In order to do that you follow these steps:
a) download TITANIUM KISS kernel from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765687
b) put the kernel in fastboot folder and flash it, you need to open cmd, locate your fastboot folder, connect the phone in fastboot mode and type fastboot flash boot nameofkernel.img, on the screen you will see the loading bar (it's very quick), once its done, reboot into recovery.
c)from the recovery, go to advanced->mount usb storage, the computer will open your phone folder, just take the rom and copy it to your sd card, when it's done copying, just do unmount usb storage.
d)from the recovery, do wipe->factory reset, it will delete the old rom on your phone
e)now you are ready to flash the rom, from the recovery goto install and select the rom from the list.
It will take like 5-6 minutes to boot the first time, so dont worry and wait.
2) Use cyanogenmod10, then you need hellboy kernel and the rom of course. steps:
a)download hellboy kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1954967
b)same as above
c)same as above
d)same as above
e)same as above
this will also take some minutes to boot the first time. Once its booted you wont have play store and stuff (only on cyanogen, sense has it already), so you need to do this:
f)mount usb storage
g)download gapps from here http://www.mediafire.com/?k2cb1trw8s2oio2
h)copy gapps to your sd card
i)reboot into recovery and install them, reboot the phone and you are all done!

Hi Nooby - So I dont need to flash with TWRP anymore?
Flashing with Sense kernel Titanium-KISS will suffice before I install the myONEv RC9.0 FX+ ROM?
Please advice...

Flash the STOCK ROOTED ROM using my (steps below)
1. Download Odin - Odin 3.07 --- Not a must for rooting but great tool to have!
2. Download CWM6 - There are newer versions but I know this works! - Thanks AndyYan - CWM6.0.1.2
Original thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34479219
3. Downloaded - Stock Rooted UCLJ3 ROM - STOCK ROOTED UCLJ3 ROM - Android 4.0.4
4. Place the zipped STOCK ROOTED folder on your External SD Card --- In the root of the sdcard --- what that means is don't put it in a folder! - You can do this by putting your card in your computer or laptop, if you have a media reader or usb adapter Buy One Here - once its on the external sd card place it back in the phone
5. Boot into CWM6 -
5a - Power off phone
5b - Power up phone while holding the down volume key - This boots you into CWM6
6. Once in CWM6 you can update to the ROOTED STOCK ROM
7. Select - Install zip from sdcard
8. Select - choose zip from external sdcard
9. Select - UCALJ3 - Stock.zip
From there just follow the prompts if any!
Once the update is done all should be well!
If I failed to credit anyone or their forum post please let me know!

Just an addition: if you're already on a stock ROM (without ROOT) and want to root without changing the ROM you're now using, just not flash the Stock UCLJ3 zip and instead flash the latest SuperUser or SuperSU zip found floating around the Internet.

Hi friend "AndyYan" then if I have a stock ROM installed as non-root in my case is that ICS 4.0.4 update through Kies, I can then just install direct CWM6 SD-card or necessarily need to use Odin.
Since I am not very clear because download Odin? supposedly the stock ROM if I will install directly to SD-card and run with CWM6 there?
Excuse my ignorance, but I'm too new, and I'm afraid to leave my phone useless?
Thanks

Updated via KIES, right? Then you need Odin to flash CWM. You can't get CWM directly from SD.
Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ Android 4.4 KRT16M

Thanks, but what if I do the steps indicated by the friend "ll81702", because as I said I have already ICS 4.0.4, cause some conflict if I restart the UCLJ3 ROOTED STOCK ROM - Android 4.0.4 indicating the guide or only one set you need superuser or SuperSU and of course install with Odin the CWM6.0.1.2, which option would you recommend
Thanks...

I am not sure I understand your question. Can you rephrase?
Sent from my SGH-I927 using xda app-developers app

I think skynet is trying to say that because he already has the stock firmware, would the rooted one conflict with his current one, and he would like your input on whether to install the superuser.zip or the cwm via Odin.
Sent from my SGHI927 using Tapatalk

If you just want to root your phone you just need to load cwm6 using Odin then place the superuser zip on your sdcard. Boot into cwm6 and load the zip.
Sent from my SGH-I927 using xda app-developers app

Exactly as it says the friend "LaizureBoy", but what would happen if I use the method of the guide, I could return it to its normal state (without root), because as I see the method of Friend "ll81702" the UCALJ3-Stock.zip this is STOCK ROOTED, for as I understand this would only be root, then you can not remove the root
Thank you for your comments and support. :good:
PD: Excuse my English because I do not understand very well and use a translator ...

:laugh: Hi again because in this other guide need a "CarrierIQ FREE kernel (zip file) or the overclocked version of it" and are not using the CWM or is that CarrierIQ is the same

Thank you II81702 and AndyYan. I have the SGH-I927... I originally used ODIN to flash the carrrier free kernal... but I noticed something strange- upon reboot, it just came up with the Samsung logo and stopped there.
I was then able go into download mode again and flashed the at&t rooted ROM from the OP on 12-6-11. When it rebooted, it got hung on the samsung logo as well.
I then flashed the CWM6 and then booted up in recovery mode.
I installed the Stock Rooted UCLJ3 ROM from the external sd card and then rebooted.
now when it first reboots, it starts out with the samsung logo then 10 sec later, it get brings up the word ANDROID and gets hung there...
So am back to square one. : crying:

You are not stuck it can take 15 mins or more to get past the android screen.
If you did not do a clean wipe of your phone it will take a very long time to load.

Thanks!! I re-wiped, re-flashed the ROM and it booted up in 5 min.
Now when I turn on the phone it has the Samsung symbol and the yellow turned to blue exclamation point and then the usual boot up after that..

Very normal!
The kernel you're using is an overclock kernel, its the same one i use!

Hi sorry for asking this, have heard of software called "UnlockRoot Pro" according to this by simply connecting the device to the software that makes root or unroot the device is a paid software, but actually works on a SGH-i927 (Captivate Glide) .
Thanks...

Why pay for something you can get for free?

It ended up working fine. It just took about 8 minutes for the phone to locate the gps... then it was ok after that.... did some research and I will try do some mods to the gps/sysconf files and see if it helps it find the gps faster.

Download first one if you want stock
And other versions, you have to extract the ROM and remove cust then flash it

Nice work again, i think adding cust in separate zip for l24 users only is better ?
And can you please check changing current with Ampere ?
Thanks

reboot recovery and flash it again ... I tested all 3 files myself last night and this morning their all fine
Remember the DeOdexed roms boot slow the first time

I finally got it booted after the second flash and it took a while to finish booting. The new B151 update seems run much smoother imo, will report later.
Thank you

Download first one if you want stock
And other versions, you have to extract the ROM and remove cust then flash it

I noticed the exact same thing.
To the dev, thank you for all your hard work! These ROMs have been excellent.

although it might not work, tried it on L-22, got the same error reported earlier in the thread even after 3 tries
I am installing this - (KIW-L24-B151-Stock.Rooted.DeOdexed.Xposed)
Twrp error: mounting system: failed to mount/dev/block/boot devive/by-name/system at/system: Device or resource busy
- OK, I missed the reboot recovery part, I did that and the install went just fine....will report back on boot up and whether it works at all for L-22
Boooo hooo!! the phone goes into a boot loop and on the second reboot after honor logo, gets automatically into TWRP. But TWRP is stuck, no touch response and no actions can be done. I can't restore my back up either now ouch!
So folks, don't try this yet on non-L24 devices! I hope someone can help me get out of this mess of a phone now, lol, experimented and well punished!

Sorry .. you'll have to reflash the stock L22 Update.App, My roms for the L24 include the /cust partition that you have to remove to use them on L21 / L22
As I don't have those phones I can't dump the /cust partition to help you
Flashing this should return you phone to working order >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/rom-r1-modaco-custom-rom-t3336458

Thanks for the tip, been trying to flash the update.app, I downloaded that from the honor India site itself....but since TWRP is not letting me do anything (can't even swipe to unlock), I am only since trying fastboot commands.
I have the cust.img file for my device, but trying to flash it in fastboot is not working...it says "Remote: Command not allowed".....am sooo screwed! I even tried flashing back stock recovery and HiSuite seems to not support this device!!
SOLVED: Downloaded the official firmware, placed the "dload" folder which contains the update.app in the root of the sd card, went into download mode on phone (vol up + vol dow + power) and the system installed the firmware automatically.....booted back into the stock system now, next will reflash TWRP and restore back up

How did you get TWRP messed up ?
If you restored stock recovery the phone will flash the update.app it's self
The update.app must be in a folder on the sdcard called dload
then boot the phone with power plus volume Up and down when the screen goes black release the power key but hold volume up / down till the flash starts
and the phone should start the flash on it's own.
I can reproduce it on my phone with the above instructions
When you get the phone back up and running it would be a good idea to make a backup of your /cust partition for the future instruction on how to dump it and create your own rescue rom are here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/custom-rom-starter-template-honor-5x-t3328809

[ROM/FW][STOCK]LG V30 (Joan) T-Mobile H932 20r TWRP flashable firmware (incl. ROM)

LG V30 T-Mobile H932 20r ROM​
For U.S. T-mobile H932 ONLY. Do NOT install this on any other V30/V30+/V30S except U.S. T-mobile H932. You will brick your phone.
DISCLAIMER : I do not hold responsiblity for any of the following but not limited to : Bricks due to not reading, nuclear war, cat dying. I will not be held responsible for any damage of any kind due to the result of this zip. It is held under your own risk. This does not mean that i wont help in any way shape or form to recover from anything that may happen at the result of flashing this zip. PLEASE FLASH RESPONSIBLY! PS. This zip has NOT been tested by me!​
This Rom is 100% Stock. Most recent TWRP should first be installed. Then you can install this Rom and have Oreo with working TWRP.
This zip is created from the original KDZ. It contains almost the complete 20r firmware, but the partition table rewriting part and recovery image is removed. I changed the system.img, so you do not have to reinstall TWRP (recovery-from-boot.p deleted) when ROM once booted. I also changed the partition size of system.img, so the vendorized people can install this too without having problems because of a too small system partition. This is a continuation of westwood24's idea and work, I've updated it to the newest fw version and edited / advanced it a bit. I followed his idea and made this for users who can not take OTA's because they have Custom Recovery / Root installed.
Features
Stock build made from official KDZ
Stock Build.prop
Unrooted
system.img modified to keep TWRP
System image size shrunk for being able to flash this on a smaller system partition, mainly caused by vendorizing
Removed dm-verity
Removed rctd (LG's root checker tool daemon)
Enabled opt-encrypt, it's your choice now if you want to encrypt your phone, it's no more forced. TWRP now is capable of decryption (both AOSP and stock) since a few versions
Added DTS build prop
Added all lockscreen weather animations build prop
Installation
What you need
Unlocked Bootloader [How to do]
Working TWRP installed (should be installed already, otherwise you wouldn't need this zip )[Link to newest unofficial TWRP]
When you need Root, Latest Magisk [Download]
H93220r.zip [Download]
How to install
When you are still on Nougat,
you should start fresh: Reboot to recovery using button combo or reboot app (needs root; btw, Magisk offers this possibility too: Menu -> Modules -> three dot menu top right - Reboot to recovery)
Then flash this TWRP.img via image flashing function in TWRP, reboot to recovery again (for fully working new recovery) and do a backup, then copy this backup to your PC.
Then initiate a factory reset. Wipe your system partition too in TWRP advanced wiping menu, copy the 20r firmware zip to your SD and install it. Reboot and enjoy
From Oreo:
For clean install: Factory reset and wipe system
You can also keep your data by simply dirty flashing the zip. *Be aware that problems may occure, maybe you need to do a factory reset to start fresh*
Flash the 20r zip, then Magisk zip when you need root, then reboot to System = you're DONE
P.S.: could be, that you first need to boot up your fresh install and set it up before you can flash magisk.
At the first time you boot to system, it can be TWRP says No OS installed. You can ignore it.
If TWRP asks if you want to install SU, hit no (in newest TWRP SU is disabled, and the option to install the TWRP app is disabled too.)​
Rom Version
Android Version: 8.0 Oreo
Android security patch level: 2019-1-1
Don´t forget to hit the thanks-button if you like this zip! :good:
You want to help me with a [donation?] Not asking for it, I have fun doing this for you, but feel free...

#RESERVED
Please to anyone who had issues with the zip.....
We have a fix!
Flash this zip
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397908552
Then flash a rom from your SD CARD
ONLY FLASH THIS OF YOU HAD A BRICK FROM 20R!!

Zip is live! Enjoy!

your zip name is wrong.. should be h93220r* ( it doesnt matter but i was confused at first)
also, i flashed it and nothing happened. my system is still the same as i was before (20p)
and in the script, i think it says 'model=VS996' or something. since it just words, it may not matter.
but maybe you used the wrong script for h932
In any case, the zip did nothing for me. flashing only took about 10 secs in total, and flashing system barely took a second.

So seems theres an issue with the zip. Maybe upload didn't quite finish as I did it while at work via rdp to my pc at home. Will look into it when I get off work

At the end of the flash it looks like it flashed fine but then it tells me it failed to mount everything. When I go to reboot into the system it tells me there is no OS. I was just going to flash the 20p zip I had but then it restarted and now I can't get into TWRP again. Now it just restarts into fastboot mode
UPDATE: I was able to get back into TWRP by going through the factory reset option (Volume down + Power, etc.) I'm now flashing the 20p zip I have.
UPDATE 2: Didn't work. Got into a bootloop. Restoring an old Lineage backup I have. Should have made a backup of my current state before flashing but I wasn't thinking
UPDATE 3: That didn't work either. Everything I flash it tells me failed to mount '/persist-lg' and just boot loops. I guess the next thing to do is try and use LGUP to restore

Same here as above. Doesnt mount system persist cache.

Thanks. Searching around, I see there have been people having issues like this before with other devices. Something to do with the persist.img. Did the last zip include one? Also, I hope whatever it is can be fixed with a new zip. I don't know why restoring a backup or flashing an old full stock zip wouldn't fix anything.
This is basically what I'm getting

Hello please I used the Moto g stylus as well, using MetroPCS with QPRS30.80-64-6-2, I want to know if this rom is unlocked , will it remove the sim lock on my device as the remote unlock fails. Thanks

Hi new guy here. Got couple moto g stylus (2020 pro). Mine Ive tried out arrow, havoc cr stag, bliss and resurrection. My wife's exact same phone she decided to have me install resurrection remix and magisk root it. ADB installed until last step which was fastboot -w. Had error about not auto formatting RAW format. I managed to fix that but still boot looped or twrp 35. Sofia will load but can't install any rom from zip. Stag logo bootlooeded.. hard to even explain.. damn. Anyway
Any suggestions?

If you still need to figure out the crazy flashing procedure for our device...best answer is make sure you are on STOCK Android 10...if you have updated to Android 11 you will not be able to flash custom ROMs or have a fully functional TWRP recovery...and Magisk root is not good with A11..You can flash GSI on Android 11 Stock firmware or use the DSU loader to install the Beta of Android 12...and the GSI situation is 50/50 if it will boot or not....what I do is flash the A10 stock final upload from the lionnet archive using the ever so awesome Moto flash tool...the tool does everything...and fixed your Beta partition so you can flash custom ROMs...once you finish with the tool reboot into STOCK recovery and format data..reboot to Stock Android 10 once you get to the Android setup welcome screen reboot to boot loader and flash TWRP recovery to both recovery slots...reboot to recovery...and format data...then reboot to fastbootd...your first custom install is recommended to be flashed from fastbootd on both slots...now when you finish reboot to Stock 10 recovery and format data...boot the rom first before and mods installed...then once you boot the rom you can flash mods with TWRP..get in a habit of after new system install format data in stock 10 recovery...now any custom ROM flash at this point forward do from TWRP and before flashing format data in TWRP after format again in stock 10 recovery...gapps install after first boot...Magisk install only after you fully go through the flashing procedure and setup the Rom make sure to enable dev options or it won't boot..and again flash Magisk after full setup and reboot..this procedure works...I keep a copy of stock recovery and TWRP recovery on my sdcard and platform tools on pc...you can flash stock 10 and TWRP in mobile if your rooted with any root kernel mgr so that way you don't have to use pc...the moto flash tool is the best way to setup the phone for custom ROMs.....
