Disconnect the USB cable from phone & PC.
Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > From the list, uninstall all programs that begin with "HTC"
Install these drivers: http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe
Remove & reinsert your phones battery
Hold volume down + power to get to the botloader
Select fastboot & conenct the USB cable
Your phone should now say FASTBOOT USB
Type your fastboot commands

What recovery so you have? Do you get any error?
I think you have an old CWM, and need 5.8.4.0

Flashing recovery went terribly wrong on Xperia S

Hi
So yesterday I was trying to install TWRP recovery in order to install Cyanogenmod 11 on Xperia S , I followed a tutorial on techglen, the problem is that now I only have the recovery on my phone , it boots instead of the system , the system files are still there but I can't boot on it , If i connect my phone to my computer I can't access the storage even if I mount it using TWRP
So i have some questions
Is my phone broken?
Instead of flashing a .elf file i flashed the .img instead , is that the source of the problem? ( i didn't do it on purpose , but i didn't pay attention :/ )
can i flash the boot.img of the old system to get it back on booting ?
If there's a way of pushing the CM11 into my phone and installing it would that fix my problem?
Can i use flash tool to flash my old system back ?

[Q] Phone soft bricked? Unable to used ADB or Memory Card

Hello everyone,
I got my AT&T HTC M9 yesterday with 1.32.502.9. I unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP successfully. I tried Installing Android Revolution 4.1 and didn't noticed the installation failed. When I restarted the phone it got stuck on the HTC logo. Someone after messing with the phone I ended up loosing TWRP and I'm back to the stock recovery with only these options:
reboot system now
apply updates from ADB
wipe data/fatory reset
wipe cache partition
reboot to bootloader
power down
view recovery logs
apply from phone storage
apply from sd card
My phone is stuck at the logo screen and I cannot sideload or flash anything from the SD memory card or phone storage. My phone gives me an error when I try to flash from the SD card and my computer now does not detect my M9 (all drivers were installed previously as well as the SDK)
I don't want to do anything else yet because I'm afraid I will make things worse. Could any body advice me on how to fix my phone?
Thank you!
I was able to fix it.

You have to switch to the download mode on your M9 and use the fastboot command to flash a custom recovery (TWRP2050 worked for me). Make sure your SDK is up to date and you download and install all the HTC drivers for the M9.

Shut the phone off,wait 10 seconds then hold volume down and start button. After a few seconds, it wil vibrate, release the buttons and it should start in donwload mode (black background).

Turn on you phone and wait about 10 seconds after seeing the HTC logo. Hold down the volume up button and power button for a few seconds until the phone vibrates, as soon as that happens switch to the volume down button and power button that should put the phone in "download mode." Connect your phone to your PC. On your command prompt you can type "fastboot devices" to check and make sure your phone is good to go. After that, you should be able to flash TWRP which in turn would allow you to flash a custom rom and fix your phone.

I don`t have m9 now but if you do this solution,maybe your phone boot up again ( this solution works on m8 )
I don`t think your phone bricked or damaged memory
you can do this solution,maybe your phone fixed !
1- charge your phone then update the htc usb driver and adb tools
2- then boot to the bootloader and flash the latest twrp recovery again ( don`t forgot do erase cache)
3- download other rom like viper rom then copy it on the flash memory ( to install rom with otg cable and flash memory)
4-do full wipe ( internal and external memory - system - cache - dalvik cache)
5- install rom from flash memory and do full wipe again in aroma installer
6- then restart your phone and wait to phone boot up again
7- if don`t boot up,go to the bootloader and flash boot.img from rom ( you should extract rom to see it )
after all you can s-off your phone if you like
good work:good:

Thanks for replying but I was able to fix my phone a few hours after. Those are the right steps but you're missing some details. HTC has now changed things a bit and added the "download mode." Flashing in bootloader does not work any more.
Glad your all sorted !
Me 2 help !!!!

Broke my phone , need help no recovery

Hi , i broke my zenfone 2
I did go to Recovery mode and do a wipe cache , then the phone was stuck on "formating cache..." so i shut down the phone and when i reboot , there is the android robot saying error , it wont boot in normal mode
I only can go in fastboot , then when i press recovery he go with the robot and pressing then realease power +vol up do nothing . i know i do it right because i did manage to go to recovery to wipe cache , so the phone is stuck.
When i plug in to charger there is no more led and no more battery showing charge.
the fast boot show :
Product_name - z008
Variant - Asus_z008
Hw_Version -
Bootloader Version - unknow
Ifwi Version - 088.0163
Serial Number - xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Signing - ?
Secure_boot - ?
looks like et formated everything.
Did my phone is dead guys ? i send a mail to asus for help , but maybe you guys can tell me if it will be possible to recover the phone just with a computer and fastboot access.
Sorry for english , and thanks for your help.
Download the latest firmware files, and push them via fastboot. You should find all that you need through these forums. Once in fastboot, you will need to open Command Prompt, and access the folder with fastboot.exe and the necessary .img files. From there, you issue the following commands
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
Hi ,thank you for you help , but there is some technical issue
I have Zenfone 2 ZE550ml WW version i suppose because i get it in france.
First , i read that you need to activate "USB debugging" from your phone in order to use ADB Fastboot programe , and i cant do that since i dont have access to normal android boot.
Second , there is no official system.img file , the only one i found was for the Pre-root sytem downloadable on the website ------www .asus- zenfone. com ------ and i dont want to root , on the asus website , the firmware is a .Zip with boot.img and droidboot.img in it , so no recovery.img and system.img
Third , no i did not found what i need on the forums because the phone is pretty new and i saw nobody with the same probleme than me , peapole just want to flash CN To WW version or things like that but they have access to recovery and everything they need .
I need to recreate a fresh recovery in order to access to it , and i dont even know if it is possible without the "USB debugging" activated , and i need a source for the files too , i didn't found what i need on this forum but i still think its the best for help, still waiting for a pro to tell me what to do.
Im pretty new to android , its my first smartphone , i looked for info on the web concerning my problem but i found only Zenfone 5 feedback and they have access to recovery, looks like im the only one who have no more recovery partition and phone didnt boot in normal mode.
Phone is under warranty , and im still waiting for the Asus answer , in the warranty condition they said software problem due to incorrect use is not take under warranty , but i did not feel like i did an incorrect use , i just wanted to wipe cache partition and the phone frozen so of course i had to reboot it.
Sorry for bad english and Again thank you mrbubs3 for your help.
Hello mrbubs3 , after some research about the command "Fastboot erase cache" , it apeared that it was like a WIpe cache partition from the recovery.
Since my phone crached while doing Wipe cache partition , i used this command and now the phone BOOT IN NORMAL OMMGMG?KGEKLPGMZEG? SO THANKS!!!
First time after the command i tryed to go to recovery mode and it did not worked , then my phone started in normal mode , and then i retryed to go to recovery and it work
So Everything Work again , man so much thanks , a simple command save my life thanks you so much

You are quite welcome! And welcome to the Smartphone life!! Android is very good for superusers, and the learning curves can be quite intimidating. But the instincts that you've shown with researching and following the directions as they are given demonstrate that you should be fine.
A quick note: recovery is like a recovery partition on a computer's hard-drive, that is typically accessed when there is an OS or hardware issue. While recovery can be traditionally stored on USB, CD or other portable media, the form factor for a phone places a certain limitation on that. The bootloader is like the BIOS screen for a phone, so that is where you can enter in low-level commands. That is why adb reboot recovery does not work if you're having phone problems but fastboot commands work at the bootloader. Hope that clarifies things a bit!!
But most of all, welcome to XDA!
Indeed.. Quiet intimidating.. Even for a person who has been using numbers of androids for numbers of years.. Thank you so much mrbubs3..
Michel66. Thank you for posting the question.

Yes Michel66. Please do so tell us. Can you also include the links where we can download the necessary files? Same thing happened to my zf2 and I had to pay a lot to a technician to do it. Even them had a hard time. Now I'm afraid to update and do wipe cache partition to my phone.
