Unbricking P8000 - Elephone P8000

Hi folks,
Dead P8000 on my hands here, botched recovery flash, not even sure what happened there.
MTK phones are famous for being unbrickable but this case is a bit beyond me...
1. Phone is still detectable over USB on Windows, which is nice.
2. After pressing Download on SP Flash Tool, I connect the phone to the cable, but nothing happens.
3. This machine was previously able to flash the same phone without problems.
I've used SP Flash Tool to revive many phones before so I'm not exactly a noob with it but there's probably some hidden combination somewhere which I don't already know.
Any ideas? Thanks!

The problem is in all likelyhood caused by your drivers. Try uninstalling the mediatek drivers with USBDeview, then reinstall them.

USB deveice not recognize + Bricked GNex

I know a lot of people have been asking how to fix the usb device not recognized problem, but mine is a little bit more complicaated: I think i acdentally wipe the os away, and now there is no os in my phone, only a clockworkmod recovery touch 6.0.1.9, and nothing left in the sdcard. what can i do?
How did you wiped away your OS? It may that you have accidently deleted some system file or trying to change.
Do you have Gnex toolkit?Can your toolkit identify your device?

i wipe everyting away in the clockworkmod. what gets worst is no computer can recgonize my device. no matter which cable i used and which usb port i used, it didn't work. so my phone is literally a piece of brick, cannot connect to computer, cannot enter the os(it always stay on the "Google" screen.
If you wipe through CWM recovery,you just do a factory reset,nothing more than that. Your phone isn't actually bricked.Did you made a backup through CWM? If yes than you can fix your phone.
You just need to follow some steps-
1.Enter into fastboot mode.
2.Open GNEX toolkit.
3.Download and flash factory image of your device from google.
4.Flash it!

there is a problem: my computer cannot recognize my device. I tried remove the driver and install it again(Gnex toolkit & nexus root toolkit), but both of them don't work.without a proper installation of driver, i can do nothing.
Man you really messed up with your device.You didn't made a NANDROID backup.This is where the main problem persists.I think you need to take it to Service Center.

P8000 brick

Hi guys
This is my first thread here, so I hope that it is in right place.
Yesterday I received my elephone p8000 but I noticed a problem which I tried to resolved by myself. When I tried to switch on the phone, there was only a dark screen with booting sound. Recovery mode doesn't work so I thought that sp flash tool help when I use format and root phone and go in some way to recovery mode. I put on memory of phone a supersu, a then I format my phone by sp flash tool. I want to upgrade it by sp flash tool but I can't because I have got some problems with usb drivers, I see some errors during processing upgrade.
I have read the topic bbs.elephone hk viewthread&tid=6616&page=5&authorid=12774#.VfDLzZfLJ6I ( I can't post a full link here as a new guy ) and I had a hope that when I install these drivers it will help me, but it doesn't work.
Probably I made a mistake because I don't know too much about android enviroment, but I have the feeling that I'm close to repair my phone by myself, I would like to try some mtk 6753 usb drivers and MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM (Android) but I can't find any on windows 7. Is there anybody who could help me? I'm sorry for my english, I tried to explain everything as good as I can.
Regards.

Hi,
so you basically flashed your phone even though you knew that your USB driver is unstable? Don't do that!
Does your phone still boot (in any mode)?
Check if you can at least get into the bootloader. Hold volume up and power at the same time. If you can't, you probably screwed your device. Oh, and fix your Windows setup! The driver needs to be stable in order to flash the phone again!
Same problem!
you have to instal the package you have download with the tool.
i tried it on my laptop and i had all errors with the drivers. i tried my desktop (win 10 ) and it worked very wel.
i hoop i helped you!:good:
use PDAnet driver!!! And use spflash-tool to reinstall the stock rom!

Hello!
I also flashed a recovery.img which put the phone into a boot loop. I am not able to flash my backup because in SP Flash Tool my HTC Desire 320 keeps disconnecting (error 2004).

Thanks.

Already tried, with battery in it boots and crashes, when plugged in without battery it just connects and disconnects over and over.
Have tried multiple cords, usb 2.0 & 3.0 ports. Same story.
Installed mediatek driver, uninstalled; you name it I tried it with the exception of opening it. Haven't got to that stage yet, I'm lazy.

if adb cant be able to be able to connect and stay connected ( bootloop or restarting problems )
then take SP Tool flasher to flash the Scatter MT6582 from stock KK by only remove battery first and let it out.
plug the universal usb port on cable but on the end of the cellphone dont plug it yet...
in SP Tool check the checkboxe in settings to checksum DL DA. and select usb high speed and W/O battery options.
then when the scatter is loaded then you ready to flash. the latest SF Tool is recommanded.
click on Download on SP tool when done the steps. it will hang on idle but at this moment press de volume down button first.
keeps holding that button until the end of flashing process and when hold it now plug the cable to your computer and bam you will be able to flash it to stock or custom your desire 320 without problems and its will not disconnect during process since you holding the volume down button.
that's how I did resolve my problem about months and find my own solution.
hope this helps... dont be shy to let me know if it worked for you or if you still need assitance.
have a nice day.
peace.

After searching and searching, seems someone actually had the same problem as I do. But for my part even when pressing the volume down before connecting to the computer doesn't keep the phone from connecting and disconnecting, even tried all the buttons combination you can imagine.
I'm wondering if it could be a driver issue, in your case was your device disconnecting every 5 seconds? And do you have any special driver that I should be aware of, personally I have Preloader USB VCOM port version 2.0.0.0...
I hope you got something in mind, I don't know where to look anymore haha.
Thanks again
PS I did everything else, remove battery, disable signature, got scatter MT6582 + download agent for flash tool (also updated), tried with ADB but can't detect device (of course it keeps deconnecting :silly: )

even if you have mediatek usb vcom driver or adb drivers else original driver it works on all with the button press.
but set the setting like I said USB support normal without battery W/O and high speed.
don't set it to mediatek com ports on SP tool. but if you have mediatek com port change to port 20. that's what I did change the port com.

What version of SP Flashtool are you using?
Well I have tried everything everyone has said so far
No matter what I try I get
BROM ERROR: S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004)
[H/W] Fail to download DA to baseband chip's internal SRAM!
Have tried using both
SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1352.01
SP-Flash-Tool-v5.1532.00
Both do the exact same thing, tried checking the AD DL ALL with Checksum boxes, unchecked usb high speed and full speed. Pressing the down button before plugging it it, after. Nothing I do seems to work, in the device manager it just keeps appearing and disappearing over and over
I think a found the solution guys. After a sleepless night , I stumble into a russian forum who got the same problems as ours.
The correct version of the SP FlashTool we need for our device is the SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1348.01_SEC (http://mediafire.com/download/eaar07r2nm1v7t6/SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1348.01_SEC.rar). I read somewhere that it was because of the HTC Desire 320 has a security boot.
If you got a 4008 error, it's probably because you're using Win8-Win10. You need Win7. I'm installing Win7 on my PC right now, so I will tell you more about it later.
If you looking for the stock roms, I found this site : http://easy-firmware.com/index.php?a=browse&b=category&id=1449
If you speak russian, feel free to correct me.
Have a good one guys.

If you got a CID Error, it's probably because you have flash the wrong rom for your device. I didn't have to restore the NVRAM after this flash, but maybe you will have to.

Thanks for it, i've got that problem after trying to install custom recovery. I also got the error 2004 but i fixed myself by using DA_SWSEC.bin. Not sure if it work for ur guys or not.
I also learn that althrough HTC 320 is Mt6582 devices but we cant use the method they wrote in mtkrom site to install custom recovery. Now i can find the stock rom of my phone to check flashing custom rom via splashtool. I used telus rom above and i got problem wrong CID and the flash camera not work, if i have msg or phone call missing, it flashes like notice led! At least now my phone is working ok then. I'll try to contact HTC to get stock rom of my phone

Yeah I forgot to mention that, you need to use the DA_SWSEC on the SP Flashtool. What's your htc 320 model? Your probably have the wrong rom. The telus one is only for NA device.
EDIT: Are you using the HTC Desire 320 with dual sim: http://drop.ndtv.com/TECH/product_database/images/15201573649PM_635_htc_desire_320.jpeg
If this is your device, the Telus rom is not for your device.

Flash without a PC

Sorry If this is covered somewhere else but I've tried a number of search queries and haven't found anything.
My issue is that I have a rooted verizon LGG4 that has started acting up quite a bit. I would like to flash back to a stock kdz but because of the glitches with the current software my PC will not recognize the phone. I have used different usb cords and even had the port itself checked out and the tech said there was nothing wrong with it that he could tell. So I believe the issue is with the software. Is there anyway to flash the phone back with out a PC?
Thanks

KDZ you need pc.. maybe format or try another PC.
I have tried 2 different PC's. None of them work with this phone but all work with another G4 no problem. I do have access to img and bin files but I'm still not sure how I could use them as all I have ever used to flash is LGUP on my PC and the C promt. If i could just figure out something to fix the USB issue I'd have it made otherwise I need to figure out a way to flash from the phone itself.
Have you tried lgup it is good for these types of issues.....
When I had issues I found that with lgup he best way is leave your device plugged in and pull the battery out and problem solved.....

Does ure pc reconize device at all. Whats it say in device manager.
Have u checked your drivers?
I use the old lgflash tool from lg g2. Also works great for messed up situations.
Also have you tried booting in download mode to see if its reconized. Bad firmware shouldnt affect dl mode connections
LGUp is actually the program I prefer to use and it can't find my device any longer.
The PC will charge the phone and that's it. Current drivers and all but still says unrecognized device in the device manager. I have a couple of g4s that work just fine I might just start overwriting system files with working ones from the other devices until I figure out which one is corrupted.

Try FlashFire from playstore. It can flash from within android. Never used it though..
And sorry to ask this but have you tried to change the connection mode (swipe down and change to ptp)?

Accidentally flashed the wrong blankflash (so I can't flash Android) and I didn't find any way to put the phone back to EDL mode... Only Lenovo/Motorola knows...
Yep, I'm having the same issue. I was on Stock Oreo, and tried to OTA to Pie (my phone is RETBR), OTA was detected and download, but the install fails every time, seems to be an error with partition B (logs are above), so I intended to flashall the slot B to "correct" the partition, but as soon as I marked B as active and rebooted to bootloader again, the phone didn't startup anymore, and nothing is reconized on PC.
Anyone got any progress on this?
