My CDMA Nexus froze....battery pull, boot looped. Recovery restore backup....."error while restoring /data"
Been trying to get back to stock ever since and I can't get the fricken ADB command prompt stuff to work.
I have installed drivers like 10 times, and it shows "Android phone" in device manager when the phone is plugged in with fastboot on.
Everytime I try and do the fastboot commands it just says "error: device not found"
Does it let you mount usb so you can stick a new rom file on it?

does "fastboot devices" reveal your phone?

It doesn't show up as a drive, just in the device manager as Android ADB Interface.
I just restarted my computer to see if the drivers needed that....this time I ran the 'adb reboot bootloader' and I got daemon not running. Now starting on port 5037. Daemon started successfully. Then it still said error: device not found

if the serial number comes up then it should be able to push the factory images back into it.

I'd like to make a batch file to execute a series of commands like below.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
I flash a lot so I wanted to make things easier, could anyone help me out please?
I once knew a thing or two, something about echo and such, but that was a long time ago.
Thanks!

START fastboot flash boot boot.img etc...
save it as .bat in your fastboot folder
should work
since there is no wait-for-device on fastboot, you'd probably have to do something like this...
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
sleep 15
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Otherwise the adb command would return the moment the command is sent to the phone and it'd try and execute the fastboot flash command before the phone is actually in fastboot.

Makes sense, thanks I will try, hope it works.
Thanks to both of you !
I would use a pause command in the batch script on Windows so that the user can make sure that the phone is actually in fastboot USB mode prior to running fastboot. Sleep is not provided in the default command set on Windows so won't work.
Having said that ignore the above para if your script is running on an Unix environment.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
timeout /t 10
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
try this one, timeout is built in since windows 7 i think
hmm my Windows 7 had sleep, must have been installed by a third-party app then if it is not included by default. Noted.

The windows resource kit must have been installed on your PC? Anyway, it can be downloaded from here.
Any idea how to do something like this?
After running the batch it shows a message saying something like.
Please plug in your phone and enable USB-mode and press any button when finished

After plugging in the phone you press the button and it executes the bootloader command, then it says.

You press a button, it finishes flashing and then gives a message saying.

What you are trying to do? Just switch from Chinese to Global? or your device is bricked now?
What did happen after that you flashed the Chinese recovery ROM?
What modes do you have available?
Did you unlock bootloader previously?

Fastboot flashing commands won't work if you have bootloader locked.
Did you unlock bootloader previously and probably get locked again?
Did you enable all the proper options on Developer section, i.e. USB debugging and check if device is recogniced on adb commands?
What do you get with "fastboot getvar all"?

And you said you enabled USB debuging?!? you didn't. First enable it under development tools.
MAKE SURE YOUR USING RIGHT ADB/FASTBOOT TOOLS AND DRIVERS.
After 'adb reboot bootloader' use 'fastboot devices'. You can change usb cable and if you still get errors try using usb hub.
If all above fails than try it on WIN7 PC.

I think you are not properly booted to the proper state while you're trying certain commands. Just to be clear; adb works while your device is power on and fastboot commands will work only while your device is in fastboot mode not while on adb mode. A way to be sure that you are doing properly is enabling USB debugging first but while connected device with PC, a prompt will appear from device screen and then tap on "always allow", then you have to type "adb devices" and follow step by step, if device is recognized you can go to the next step with "adb reboot bootloader" then in fastboot you have to see the bunny otherwise is not properly in fastboot mode, then you can follow with "fastboot devices" and so on, keep in mind that any command will work until device is properly recognized.

Just trying to determine what your words exactly mean when you say "after in fastboot mode it doesn't boot in adb mode." ... without entering in more technical insights adb works when device is on, no sense to boot to fastboot to try to boot to adb after that (?)
If you can boot to fastboot what you have to try firstly is unlock bootloader or be sure that is already unlocked using
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
if your device is or get unlocked then you can try to flash or just boot to a custom recovery but if you can't determine until now if your device is really unlocked then you couldn't go further.
The hardware method to enter to fastboot is from a device off; pressing both pwr and vol down buttons but if the bunny is not displayed probably you didn't really get fastboot mode.

Do yo use WIN10? Find PC with Win7... and install adb/fastboot app and drivers. Than try..
Is your system working now?
Just unlock your bootloader and install OrangeFox recovery than you can flash whatever you need.
Problem solved.

TWRP can't bypass encryption, when you have no access to read data (0mb) then you have to format it, to avoid that is always recommended use OrangeFox, just for future reference, if you understand that you can flash OrangeFox through TWRP for better experience.
Also you can use this tool to help you to automate some stuff https://github.com/Szaki/XiaomiADBFastbootTools
Hi guys, in short, I wanted to install the latest xiaomi.eu MIUI 12.5 beta on a Mi 10T Pro, european version.
What I did was: unlocked bootloader, flash latest TWRP 3.5 beta version, I think I booted the device normally after this...
Then went back to TWRP and flashed the Zip file right away, don't know what I wiped after the install.
All in all the device won't boot now, I'm stuck to either twrp or fastboot.
Problem is I cant flash a fastboot stock rom, says it's successful but the flashing process is like 2 seconds, i can't copy a recovery rom to the internal storage, i think Data partition got corrupted.
Can't wipe Data partition, there is a FBE decription error, and says unsupporter file system auto.
Does anyone have any idea what can I try.
Already tried to change Data file system to ext2 then back to ext4 but no luck.
PC recognizes the phone as a media device, I can see the Internal storage icon, but can't see any files nor can I copy anything to it.
Tried flashing the stock rom with mi flash tool and with command prompt too.
Any advice is welcome.

Hello,
I hope this is the right section for this post.
I've been using a Note 8 Pro with zero issues until one week ago when I accidentally dropped the phone in the water.
After a few seconds submerged the display turned off and I felt an intense heat coming from the zone of the battery.
Having no chance to recover the phone (tried with Isopropyl Alcohol too) I decided to open it and manually dry/clean each component, having seen the situation inside gave me the phone is dead but I still want to recover some pictures/data from it.
Before opening the open Minitool was not detecting any device on my Windows Laptop, after cleaning each component Minitool is instead detecting the phone via USB, but I still can't extract any data because the "Usb debugging" option is not tuned on (and no the device is not rooted).
Is there any option to extract data from the phone? There's a way to turn on USB Debugging via ADB on a non-rooted phone?
Thanks,
Andrea.
how about trying your luck with a service ? most of the time they do have access to special programs, which have a better functionality than adb.
Thanks for the hint, but I am not happy with the idea of someone playing with my data
1. Try reboot phone to recovery
2. Connect it to your computer (download Platform-tools)
3. In the folder with Platform-tools open cmd
4. In cmd - adb shell
5. cd storage/emulated/0
6. ls
7. Now, using the commands, drag files from your phone to your PC
Thanks for your hint.
No luck so far, I think because the phone is not in recovery mode.
I can hear the phone starting up several times (hear the jingle) so I think it's in a reboot loop and I don't know how to boot it into recovery mode wo a working display (tried with power/volume up combination with no luck).
From the windows taskbar I can see that the phone is recognized for a few seconds before it restarts.
EDIT: trying to switch the phone on with the combination "power/volume down" brings to a kind of stable state and I can now see the phone in the windows taskbar recognized as a generic "android device". Still no luck when trying to access the phone as there's no device in windows and no device obtained through "adb devices" command.
EDIT1: I think that the phone is in "FASTBOOT" mode. If I type "fastboot devices" I can see it detected but still can't access it.
Any idea? Should I give up?
If it's popping up and down you need something to keep track.
You can try my UsbLog.exe (in the sig), it just sits there and shows what devices appear (if they have a driver) and disappear.
Try these to see if anything is working:
Code:
C:\>fastboot devices
C:\>fastboot getvar all
C:\>fastboot oem device-info
Yes it's popping up and down when it's booted in recovery mode whilst is stably connected when in fastboot mode but in this case I can't access the internal memory of the device.
I didn't get the purpose of logging the devices connecting to the USB as I can see the device connected for a while and correctly recognized as Redmi Note 8 pro but as it keeps popping out windows have no time to show it's folder.
As for the code you wrote: i will try asap but already tried with "fastboot devices" and I get the phone correctly listed but still can't access its memory as told.

After rebooting the phone in fastboot mode I can see it recognized as a generic android device from windows (still can't access the storage folder of the device).
fastboot devices----> I get the device listed with a series of numbers/letters
fastboot getvar all---> I get a list of information on token/token version/partition type and size/baseband/bootloader etc.
fastboot oem device-info----> FAILED (remote: unknown command)
So I think it's clear that the device is in Fastboot mode and instead is in a boot loop when started in revocery mode.
Is there a way to extract data from fastboot mode?
Thanks,
Andrea.
If you put a custom recovery on it in the first place you can try reflashing recovery from fastboot.
Fastboot doesn't allow you to read anything.
oem device-info is obviously an oem command that might not be on any device.
You've got a Mediatek processor. That has some low level equivalent to Qualcomm EDL, but I have no experience with that.
If you can get there you can download the user data partition, but it's probably encrypted. Also no experience with that.
The easiest is if you can get the system to mount/decrypt the partition.
You've tried the normal system too?
Is this A/B? Have you tried changing slots?
How much time does it stay up in recovery? Do you have ADB? Maybe try:
Code:
# stop recovery
Does that prevent it from looping?
So I should try to flash a custom recovery like TWRP for example?
What you mean with "normal system too"?
Changing slots you mean changing usb port?
It stays in recovery less than one second so I can't give any command via ADB.
EDIT: cant' flash any custom recovery because the bootloader is locked.
If I Try to unlock the bootloader via MiUnlock I get a warning saying that all data will be erased.
Any idea on how to unlock the bootloader wo wiping all the data?

My bootloader is unlocked!
Thank you very much.
Now I am going to try to flash a custom recovery mode via fastboot in order to access the internal memory of the phone.
EDIT: I've just flashed twrp-3.6.2_9-0-begonia.img but still can't boot into recovery mode.
Any hint on how to extract data from the system now?
You really want to boot the normal system because that's the best way to get decrypted data.
I realized that you don't have ADB enabled there.
You should look at B. Kerler's https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient/
If you can pull the boot image off your device then I might be able to fix it so that you have ADB.
You'd have to flash it back in fastboot or mtkclient.
You can also pull a copy of userdata off the device with mtkclient.
As far as booting into recovery, there's a way.
Here's how, if you don't have A/B (that is you flashed TWRP into recovery and not recovery_a or recovery_b)
then you can fastboot flash a special file into the misc partition and it wil boot into recovery next reboot.
To return things to normal you have to flash the empty file to the misc partition.
Code:
C:\>fastboot flash misc misc-rec.img
C:\>fastboot reboot
Only do this if you don't have partitions that end in _a or _b
I really don't know if I have partitions A and B as you mentioned and I think there's no way to check actually.
I confirm I don't have "USB Debugging" active on the phone.
So if I understand correctly I should do the following:
- Flash misc-reg.img via Fastboot
- Boot into recovery just rebooting the system after flashing the above file;
- use MTKclient to dump userdata or boot image to enable ADB on (I will need help with mtkclient I suppose).
Is it correct?
EDIT: flashed TWRP first and misc-rec then rebooted via Fastboot/Reboot but nothing happens.

TWRP cant boot because you used wrong one. Search again in that unlock bootloader channel and use suitable one.

Hmmm, I am almost sure that the TWRP I've flashed was listed under Redmi Note 8 pro page. Can you please indicate more precisely where should I sera
EDIT: I think I've downloaded and flashed the correct TWRP file.
@Renate can you please detail your method so I can try to extract data from the phone?

1/Yeah it's official. You "flashed correct TWRP." Downgrade to Miui Android 9 (_9 in it's name) to boot into that TWRP and lose your data.
2/In unlock bootloader video above, search other video in his channel playlist and find TWRP video suitable for your Miui version.

Can't find the right video, can you kindly send me a link (I am on the latest Miui version and I am in Europe)?
In all the videos I've seen on his page he is using the device to install TWRP etc.
I think I just need the correct TWRP version for my MIUI release and then I'll flash TWRP and misc-reg.img. Is it right?
