Hey all,
So I received a notification for a system update to 4.4.3, and I had survival mode in SuperSU checked, so I went ahead and followed the procedure. Turns off, then reboots into TWRP. From there I reboot again using the TWRP option, and it boots into android just fine. Notification is gone, still with root. But then I go to settings >> about to find that I'm still running on 4.4.2. Manually check for update, says there isn't one available. Give it a day or so and the notification comes up again. Repeat, and same thing. I'm stuck with the notification again.
So, how do I get rid of the notification, or more preferably, how to I update to 4.4.3 keeping the root? Thanks.

You can't update the "normal way" like that with a custom recovery. When you try to do that, it tries to boot into the stock recovery to update, but since you have a custom recovery, it will fail everytime if you do it that way. What you have to do is flash the OTA zip using TWRP. You can find the OTA zip in /cache on your device. Or you can just download the update zip from these forums.

Since 4.4.4 is out, just download the full firmware package from Google and flash system, boot. Only those two.
If you don't know how to do that, the Nexus 5 forums has some great stickies that are mostly relevant to this device.

Right, thanks for the information. So I repeated and booted into TWRP again. Tapped 'Install', navigated to /cache, saw a couple of folders named 'back up', 'lost+found', and then a file name of a large string of letters followed by the recognisable "razor KTU70 from KOT49H", so I went ahead and flashed the latter, checking 'verify signature'. Runs through a few commands and in a few seconds comes back as failed, so I reboot into the OS.
Any ideas?

I think I have an idea, but I'll check just to be sure. Thanks for the direction.
Exactly the same for me. Installing the ota sent me to my TWRP recovery. Reboot - > still in 4.4.2.
Reading this thread, I went to TWRP recovery, installed the update from cache and like you, it failed.
Any suggestions? Did your idea work?
Where do I find the 4.4.4 mentioned here and how do I flash it in TWRP? Is install the same as flash in TWRP?
Thanks.

If it fails look to see what the specific error is. It would help to know that. If you pulled it from your cache then I assume it was downloaded by itself and should be the correct OTA. I do NOT have the "Zip file signature verification." box checked or "Enable MD5 verification of backup files." but I am extremely careful to flash/install the correct files. The OTA installed fine for me two days ago using TWRP 2.7.1.0. The 4.4.4 mentioned earlier is the factory image. You will need adb and fastboot installed on your computer to flash the factory image or any image that is pulled from inside the factory image. Wug's toolkit will work also, I think, but I've never used any toolkits. Eventually there will be a stock 4.4.4 rom that you can flash/install in TWRP but I'm not aware of one right now.
You can take the normal updates with root and TWRP (I did), but a custom kernel will prevent them from installing.
I retried to install the downloaded ota file from cache, but this time I checked zip file verification and got the error message that zip verification failed.
File name was
df43279bcf6bb6a0ae403249c3e6f314d0a7eb77.signed-razor-KTU84L-from-KOT49H.df43279b.zip
So it seems the downloaded ota file may be corrupted. How do I get my Nexus 7 2013 to re-download a new one?
(The ota download for my Nexus 5 installed with no problems - but I think it didn't go through TWRP even though TWRP is installed there too).
Thanks
---------- Post added at 04:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 AM ----------
Further
I renamed the ota file and in settings checked for system update and got a response that my system is upto date. But it is still 4.4.2.
Need to re-download the ota. How?
Changed the system date to 2 weeks earlier and succeeded in re-downloading the ota file.
So I retried installing it and it again took me to my TWRP recovery screen. I again installed the ota from cache and again the zip verification failed : 1
And the update failed again.
Still on 4.4.2
Did not change any system files as far as I know.
Need help.
Why don't you guys download the stock firmware from Google (link in my signature), and use fastboot to flash system.img, boot.img (DO NOT run the batch file)? If it's a lack of knowledge, all you need do is ask, and I or someone else would be happy to teach you how to use it (fastboot). If you're going to be modifying your Nexus device, you need to learn fastboot. You guys have got to learn the proper way to do things.
You've put forth so much effort to fix a system that is not meant for modified (rooted, customized) phones. You can't fix it, stop trying. Just do it the proper way. And do not use a toolkit. They don't teach you anything, they spoon-feed.

I don't use a toolkit and would be happy to flash the system.Img and boot.img but need instructions on how to do it. You said the stock firmware link is in your signature but it isn't.
I would like to skip 4.4.3 and go directly from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4. I'm talking about a nexus 7 2013 wifi.
So I need the following information to proceed .
1. The Link to download system.img and boot.img for the nexus 7 2013 wifi. Which files exactly?
2. I have fastboot and adb installed on my windows 7 laptop because I used them (once) to root but I don't remember how I used them that one time. How exactly do I use fastboot to flash 4.4.4 ?
3. I presume I will lose root. How do I regain it after the above.
Thank you.

1. The Google firmware link in my signature is the one you want. You say you have the 2013 wifi model, aka flo, aka razor. "Factory Images "razor" for Nexus 7 [2013] (Wi-Fi)" is the proper section for you. You want 4.4.4 (KTU84P), and that's at the bottom of the razor section. Click the link to download.
2. Download the most up to date ADB/Fastboot from the link in my signature (19.0.2 (API 19)). Don't extract it yet.
3. You will lose root. Download SuperSU from my signature. 2.00 is the current version. After you download that, you can put it on your device so you can flash it in recovery in a few minutes.
The firmware you downloaded is razor-ktu84p-factory-b1b2c0da.tgz. This is a compressed archive, and you will need to extract it. If you don't know how, 7-Zip should work.
So, you've extracted the files. Delete flash-all.bat, flash-all.sh, flash-base.sh (so you don't accidentally run them).
Now, all you have left is bootloader-flo-flo-04.02.img and image-razor-ktu84p.zip.
Extract image-razor-ktu84p.zip to the current directory, so you will now have bootloader-flo-flo-04.02.img, boot.img, cache.img, recovery.img, system.img, userdata.img, android-info.txt, image-razor-ktu84p.zip in your folder.
Delete userdata.img, flashing this on accident will wipe your data. Delete image-razor-ktu84p.zip, android-info.txt, cache.img, recovery.img (this is stock recovery, you want TWRP).
Now you have boot.img, bootloader-flo-flo-04.02.img, system.img.
Remember the ADB & Fastboot zip you downloaded from my signature? Extract it to the directory with bootloader-flo-flo-04.02.img, boot.img, system.img. All 4 files. This directory now contains 7 files.
Back out of the razor-ktu84p folder. Just one step back. Now, hold shift the right-click the razor-ktu84p folder. Select Open command window here.
Reboot your device to bootloader mode. Do so by shutting it down. Then while the power is off, hold volume down and press the power button. Release these buttons when you see the big green Android.
In your command window, type the command: fastboot devices
Your device with it's serial number should show up on the list. If it does not there is a problem and you need to stop here.
If the device shows up, let's update it.
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flo-flo-04.02.img
<wait for it to finish>
fastboot reboot-bootloader
<wait for it to reboot>
fastboot flash system system.img
<wait for it to finish>
fastboot flash boot boot.img
<wait for it to finish>
fasboot reboot-bootloader
Done with fastboot.
At this point, enter recovery (TWRP) and wipe cache and Dalvik under advanced wipe.
Remember the SuperSU you downloaded earlier and put on your device for later? Flash that now.
Reboot, all done. Most of this is just juggling files around. If you have any questions ask.
You are wonderful aerowinder. This is just what I needed to go ahead. Thank you so much.
About your signature, it doesn't show the links when viewed in my Tapatalk version, but I went to the Web view and got it from there. (just FYI if others ask about your links).
is it possible to just flash the system img in fastboot? It's still the same bootloader, not updated? Could I just flash the whole zip by sideloading in adb and TWRP? Just a lottle confused. Thanks!

If you were already on 4.4.3, all you need to do is fastboot flash system.img, that is correct.
No, you can't flash that firmware zip in recovery.
thanks
Hi Aerowinder
Thanks again for the excellent instructions. Everything went like clockwork until it didn't ?......
I got to the point where I issued the command fastboot devices which did show the tablet serial number. But my next command to flash the bootloader img gave me the error:
Cannot open 'bootloader-flo-flo-04.02.img
(I had copy pasted the command from your instructions).
The subdirectory below the command window contains that file (one of 7 files)
Sorry. What should I do?
In case you need the info, the device screen showed
Fastboot mode
Product name - flo
Variant - flo 32G
Hw version - rev_e
Bootloader version - flo-04.02
Carrier info = none
Serial number - xxxx
Signing - yes
Secure boot enabled
Lock state - unlocked
Thanks again.
Aerowinder, you are not only an expert but an excellent teacher. Your instructions above should be a sticky.
I'm all done. Everything is fine.
The problem I had above was a file path problem. Not sure why you told me to open the command window in the parent folder. When I opened it in the folder containing the seven files all your commands worked fine. (Except for your last one where you had a spelling mistake: fasboot instead of fastboot).
Thank you very much.

I found a fix on the forum and this explained what my problem was
On the screen when the phone failed to md5 checksum, you've got several partition failed right? in red text.
- download this : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424942573
and then extract.
- download platform tools attached below. extract in the same folder with first file you've downloaded.
- Boot your phone to fastboot mode, plug your usb, make sure adb and fastboot driver are installed.
- on the folder, hold shift and right click, click open command here
- type fastboot devices
- make sure your serial number appear.
- now flash the img of the missing file according to the partition in red text on your ms5 checksum failed one by one.
- e.g. "fastboot flash boot_aging boot_aging.img.
- make sure you flash all the missing partition.
- type fastboot reboot.
this will boot you to oos 3.1.2.
unfortunately I couldn't extract the newest oos dat. data. but you could always take the OTA
goodluck mate. sorry for my english

Guys: I need your understanding, experience, patience and HEEELP!!!
The history:
2 months ago, I bought a new HUAWEI GR3 (TANGO) TAG-L23. Processor = MT6753T
I tried to root it using KingoRoot. I Messed it up... Got a soft-brick: splash screen boot loop. At that moment, I still had access to Fastboot and Recovery mode (stock recovery).
After tons of days googling, found a TWRP recovery that someone claimed that worked in GR3.
I decided to flash it using fastboot commands from my PC. Result = OK. Flashed and worked like a charm.
Tired of searching a stock/custom firmware for GR3 TAG-L23, I decided to download and flash a GR3 TAG-L22 rom using TWRP.
Result = Messed it up again... this time worst... Hard-bricked I think: the phone didn't show any light, couldn't boot it again in any mode... Dead...
The only hope I had is that it is detected by Windows for about 10 seconds as MEDIATEK USB PORT (COMxx) where xx changes when I connect it from one USB port to another.
Since then, I tried almost every tutorial/video/solution/forum/website over the internet, tried almost every SP Flash tool version from v3.1224 to v5.1628, downloaded every scatter.txt for MT6753 processor, tried changing with/without battery option in SPFT, pressing every phone buttons combos, with no luck...
I always get the same error: S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (0xFC0)
Downloaded and installed almost every driver I found on internet: not overwritting them... I created a Virtual Machine, and test them separately using snapshots. Result = Same DRAM_FAIL error.
last week, got another HUAWEI GR3 TAG-L23, untouched, brand new...
I did the following with the new one:
Flashed TWRP recovery using fastboot commands = OK
Rooted it using SuperSU = OK
executed tons of ADB commands that found over the internet, to dump the partition table and stock rom using dd command = OK (I think... what I got is a bunch of files - system, lk, boot, logo, cache, frp, userdata, secro, recovery, nvdata, protect1 and 2, tee1 and 2, and so on).
Using the partition table information, edited one scatter.txt file for MT6753 and, one by one, adjusted the partition info (start and lenght). I did it because when using any downloaded scatter file, and selecting the files that I got from dd commands, SPFT showed error messages saying them were wrong. After editing it and loading the files that I got from the second phone, SPFT recognized them as good ones.
But.... I'm still getting the d...mn S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (0xFC0) error
Also tried to get a rom backup and scatter file from the second phone using MTK DROID ROOT & TOOLS v2.5.3 with no luck: it shows all phone information (except IMEIs), a green rectangle shows up, but... a weird message appears at right: "ERROR: TotalBytesPerChunk Not Found. Set Default Page/Spare=2048/64 !!!". Then I click on "BLOCKS MAP" button, a new window appears showing the partition info (that already got using adb command prompt) and "create scatter file" button is grayed out... And if I try to perform the backup, it starts fine, but ends with error, and no file is backed up...
Let me mention that I already read and googled the totalbytesperchunk error and the grayed out button stuff and tried all alternatives too, and nothing worked.
My work environment:
PC = Laptop With 8 GB RAM / Windows 10 pro x64
Virtual Machines: Windows 7 pro 32 bits, Windows XP 32 bits, Ubuntu 32 and 64 bits...
What else can I do?
How can I use the second, rooted and working phone to get a rom/firmware working dump? it is possible?
If someone decides to help me, let me know what do you need (dumped files, downloaded scatter.txt files, screenshots, whatever you need...)
COM## is a COM port. You can use a terminal program to directly interact with the device.
You are not completely bricked yet.
I do not have any further details to help you, but I can tell you there is still hope.
Connect the dead device to PC, load up a terminal app (if on windows, just load up the app named Terminal)
See where you can get with that.
good luck

I attached the recovery I'm currently using in the second GR3. I'm still looking forward the stock rom and a way to recover the first one... have u found a way to unbrick it?
Here you can find the recovery too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-huawei-tag-l01-p8-t3433520
I have the same problem with kingroot, and cannot find TAG-L23 rom.
I sent my phone to huawei support and they said it's a board problem and need to replace, the cost is near to the phone's original price.... No way!
In clangsm web page there's a stock rom but you need to pay for vip membership.
Please help with this issue.
I'm still trying to get a working rom image from the 2nd GR3 that I bought... No luck yet... I'm plenty sure that there is no need to do hardware replacement... can anyone point me to a tool/step-by-step guide to readback and save a flashable rom image from GR3 phone, and a SP tools that works with GR3 chipset/PCB?
Hi, i have a TAG-L01 and i got the same problem, i've tried a lot with no lucky, it seems sp flash tool don't support our device(or is huawei that don't want).
If you have some ideas please tell me, i will help(our devices are exactly the same, all TAG-Lxx are the same)
Hello
I have a TAG-L23. I was able to install the TRWP recovery mentioned in previous posts. But I do need the Stock ROM, since I am not able to start the phone. It is allways rebooting. any idea where to find the ROM? maybe cesarr4 can do a backup on TWRP from his second phone and we can load it. just make a backup in the recovery and Zip it, then you may share it.

Doing the update second time is fine, and best way to restore full stock. But you needed to use Oreo version of no-check recovery and the Oreo partition to flash it to.
So if still able to get into twrp, can try with correct no-check recovery and correct partition it's flashed to.
Also
With multi tool , make sure you put check mark on emui 8. Up in upper right corner. That way it uses Oreo partition names and file not nougat.
The partition length over message usually means nougat file or partition name used on Oreo system

Doing the update second time is fine, and best way to restore full stock. But you needed to use Oreo version of no-check recovery and the Oreo partition to flash it to.
So if still able to get into twrp, can try with correct no-check recovery and correct partition it's flashed to.
Also
With multi tool , make sure you put check mark on emui 8. Up in upper right corner. That way it uses Oreo partition names and file not nougat.

On the extractor app. On options tab uncheck the verify header option, it should extract then.
Then perhaps first do these three partitions.
Kernel.img
Ramdisk.img
Then
twrp_ramdisk or for stock use recovery_ramdisk

Hi
I have a problem with my Honor 7X L21.
Because online update dose not work for this model I decided to updated my smartphone offline.

every thing is going well until here
then I decided to root my phone but I saw there is no twrp on my phone
I search and I found a thread here that show how install twrp with adb use recovery ramdisk.
I install twrp on recovery ramdisk and try to root my phone. its OK but when my phone want to start its stuck on google page "just a sec..."
I boot my device on twrp and I did factory reset but the problem was still exist.
then I decided to flash update again.
I copy update file on SD card and wright code on twrp
but at the end when I reboot the recovery, twrp except stock recovery came up and my stock recovery was gone.
I reboot the system but Its loop on this page that says:
ERROR MODE
Attention!
Please update system again.
Error!
Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed!)
Please help me!!!
I try to install stock recovery and twrp with adb and huawei multi tools but it didn't work.

I try to unbrick my phone too but it shows same message that "FAILED (remote: partition length get error)"

I ever have similiar problem with you dude, but it's solved now, if you always stuck on " its OK but when my phone want to start its stuck on google page "just a sec...", its call google accont verification, i'll by bypass with this script, save as to .bat and put on adb folder
adb devices
adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/secure --bind name:s:user_setup_complete --bind value:s:1
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login/
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login.LoginActivity
pause
in fastboot type:
fastboot -w
after all it's works to me to bypass google account verification
and if now your problem is
ERROR MODE
Attention!
Please update system again.
Error!
Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed!)
i solve with re-flash system from this
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939830152
fastboot flash system system.img
and doing TWRP Flashing
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=25826#downloads
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk complete_twrp_ramdisk.img
and voila my problem solved..

So now is locked frp. Does phone have twrp or stock now.?
I think when you tried to install the oreo update for second time, you followed same tutorial as the first time. And that made you problem worse. The tutorial has you flash no-check recovery to 2 partition by block number. 22 & 29. On nougat that is "recovery" and "recovery2". On Oreo partion table it is "reserved2" & "erecovery_vendor"
I don't know how to fix imei. Have hope that if to ucan have a full ota install , maybe can be fixed.
There is available a "service rom" (used to fix most all problem) for Europe region with l21.
I can share link to site with service rom if you want , but I have not used it myself so not gonna be much help with it.
Link is to rusian language page. Google should translate for you.

in summery. because i have been going back and forth in multiple different groups, multiple problem, i cant remember it all.
you have broken system, from failed root attempt, followed by failed update.
device condition is as follows.
--system not booting
--stock recovery loads
--fastboot/bootloader loads, but is in frp lock status
options are limited, at best.
I think "dload" method with service rom is best.
other option is maybe paid service like dc-unlock. But I can recall some note on there service about frp-unlock, that can only be used on device with working system. (of course if was working system, wouldn't need dc-unlock)

what about the "about phone" screen
what does it show for version?
If is all stock you should be able to go into deveolper options and enable "oem unlock". If it is greyed out and cannot switch it. Try First to remove google account (all accounts ). and reboot. See if can change then. If not, try Second to do "fastboot oem relock [enter your bootloader code here]
after relock and rebooted oem switch should be enabled again.
****RELOCK IS ONLY ADVISED IF 100% STOCK ROM****
otherwise relock could make more trouble.
Still not sure how to get IMEI back even if unlocked frp though.
**And please stop posting in other threads , the same problem , because you are getting help here.
your post in recovery thread is off topic to that thread and just makes the forum harder to maintain.

Hello I have a Huawei Mate-SE (with bootloader unlocked and rooted with magisk v16). I have been using the android custom rom RRO v6 (RR-O-v6.0.0-20180401-bnd-OpenKirin) for around a month now. I got this exact same problem about the White Screen saying "ERROR MODE Attention...." since I updated the Magisk to latest version (from the installed application) and rebooted my phone. SInce I rebooted I am getting that same error which makes the phone loops into it for a few times and then it loads the Huawei eRecovery that offers me some options that I am not sure what would do to my phone.
I have been trying to connect to adb tools/fastboot but it doesn't detect the phone and im pretty sure I have the device drivers installed on my computer since nothing have changed in my pc for a month now since I flashed RRO on it.
Is there any other mode besides recovery that would allow me to connect adb/fastboot to it? Or does anyone knows how should I proceed?

I have seen where the magisk update screwed up and patches the kernel intead of the ramdisk.
Power off , long press power button.
Hold volume down and plug in USB from PC.
This should cause it to boot into fastboot mode.
Then flash the stock kernel. And the stock or first patched ramdisk. (From earlier root)

Hi thank you I was able to finally detect the device now. I am unsure about the kernel is that the recovery.img or system.img files I downloaded (i saved every file i used when I installed the rom) or do I need to look for the kernel somewhere else? I do have the complete_twrp_ramdisk.img file though.
Edit, I did more research and found the stock kernel is withing the boot.img file which I dont have so I looked up for the official BND-L34 oreo update and im currently downloading to extract the stock boot.img from the update.zip and flash it. Since that download was going to take me a while anyway i tried flashing the twrp recovery file without success (didn't changed anything) so i guess I should follow the instructions you gave me by flashing the kernel first then the twrp recovery.

Do you know what the boot.img files name is after extraction?
I have extracted all 3 update zips and cannot find anything called boot.img
By the way, thank you.. After updating magisk I have been dealing with failed recovery and failed boot for over a week and this is the first reply anywhere that looks promising

if you were on oreo. then there is not a boot.img, instaed there is seperate ramdisk.img and kernel.img.
i have all the files already extracted for oreo and a backup from nougat as well.
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=265998
make sure you know what you are doing before flashing.
for example. on oreo the boot and recovery share one kernel image. SO if kernel is messed up you will not be able to boot "boot" or "recovery"
Hello together,
after many tries to get my nokia 3.2 rooted, i end up now with a black screen.
Only the Qulacomm mode is working.
Get anyone managed to flash the stock firmware with QFIL provided from the rooting thread?
I always end up with "sahara fails".
Every help is welcome!
Thanks!!!!
After many tries I have finally put my phone back to life.
My instructions how to do it will come soon!

please do, i encountered a similar problem.
HowTo Flash STOCK 00WW
1. Trigger nokia 3.2 to edl-mode (https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-3-2/how-to/guide-how-to-trigger-nokia-3-2-to-edl-t3962841)
2. Flash the given image from this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-3-2/how-to/rooted-nokia-3-2-t3945206)
- This was the main problem. I never managed it to flash the image with the Windows Programmer QFIL. After more research in Internet, i found finally a Linux application called QDL that work directly without any problems. This application can be found here https://www.96boards.org/documentation/consumer/guides/qdl.md.html .
- Flashing the software ends up into a bootloop. Also i got a message on startup that the bootloader could not be trusted anymore. After a software-update, this message disappears.
3. Flash all the user images again manually with fastboot.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
flastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Whyever you have to flash this partitions only to the active partitions without the suffix _a or _b.
Then the bootloop is finished.
The phone boots normally to Android ONE.
The next problem which occurs on my phone is now that it is not able to connect to GSM network. I guess this happens because i deleted all the necessary partitions for the modem (modemst1, modemst2, fsg).
I get it managed to restore the imei, but still no service available.
In original my phone had the software 00EEA. Perhaps they use different drivers. My luck is that i got a cheap damaged phone from ebay with that firmware.
My next step is to modify the code from QDL that it can read the partitions from the damaged phone and save the software to computer.
Then i will flash this software to my phone and look if this software will run on my phone!

Thank you for your reply, it seems that your problem is more complicated than mine.
I have a global variant with 00WW software and i attempt to root the phone. I successfully flash the patched boot.img and had root access. However wi-fi didn't work after that.
Since before flashing the patched boot.img my phone was running on a different firmware from the one that boot.img was extracted from, so i think that was the problem.
I attempted to use QFIL to flash my phone back to 00WW_15 and it failed half way, bricked my phone.
Normally you can use the EDL Mode every time.
My phone only showed black screen and it was always possible to connect in EDL Mode and flash again.
Did you try to flash again? What happens then?

What did you mean by Flash the given image ? Was it flash the firmware package with QFIL ?
My main problem is flashing, it always failed half-way and the error log reported that needed files were missing from the package.
Okay. I used the linux program QDL for flashing.
But i saw, that in the xml file rawprogram0.xml a few files are missing.
The linux programm jump over these files but perhaps QFIL do not.
For example is there a picture.img listed which is not available..
Try to remove them manually from the rawfile and test again.

Hello,
my nokia 3.2 europe variant wont boot up its stuck in fastboot mode. What can i do to bring it back?
I get this: FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist)
P.S. if i do a fastboot reboot it boots back into bootloader
I also had this problems for many many times and don't know what went wrong when this happens.
The only thing that helped was flashing the complete firmware again in EDL-mode.
You can try first to flash only the 5 user-images with fastboot, which i mentioned before in this thread.
I uploaded this files for you, because you don't will find the europe files in internet yet.
Here is the link:
https://transfernow.net/81iti7q21s0s
Good luck!
Hi,
Thank you very much. Is this the complete Firmware? (All Images from Device) Another question: I couldnt Access the recovery System. Did you have the same Problem when your Nokia didnt boot up and was stuck in Bootloader? So is this normal that the recovery is unaccessible?
Yes, that also happens sometimes with my phone.
No, that are not all firmware files, which you need to do a full EDL-Flash.
But with this files you can first try a fastboot flash!
If it does not work, you can take all the other files from the Global-Stock-Firmware, given in the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-3-2/how-to/rooted-nokia-3-2-t3945206.
Delete the 5 files with the same names, flash the Global-Stock-Firmware in EDL-Mode, with QFIL or QDL, (without the 5 files) and in the following flash the 5 europe-image files with fastboot.
Thanks, ive sent it in and got Friday a 00WW Variant of the device back. I will upload those User images for 00EEA to my Google drive so that anyone who needs those files can download them
hello
i wanted to install custom rom and i bricked my phone. i lost recovery mode and i have only fastboot mode .but can not write any img file for example twrp.img beacuse show this error : FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist). can please anyone help me.
