Anyone dumped his recovery partition from a german shift before shooting it down with wubi-installer?
Actually it is impossible to nuke the recovery partition using wubi-installer, as it installs on already existing drive (c, and only "sees" the drive the same way windows sees it.
so i didn't read your previous threads clearly ..?
when i want to Fn+3 my Vista back zo defaults it takes 5 seconds and vista boots. Thought this happens when recovery"partition" got lost?
yes, that's what happens when it gets lost.
I have used Stellar Phoenix Windows data recovery software to recover my partition. You can try this partition recovery software .It is demo is free in which you can see the preview of your recoverable data.You can try this software may be it will help you out to solve your problem.

After rooting and flashing a new customtom rom (cm-7.2.0), it was laggy so i decided to flash back to stock rom, whiped data,cache ect. and started flashing my stock rom backup i got stuck on Huawei logo, after that i tried to get in recovery mode but failed, so i`ve run out of options and decided to hard reset my phone bit it said install step 1/2 unpacking forever, after that i booted the pink screen connected usb to pc and the phone partition didint pop up.
Please help me fix this.
Go into pink screen and attach it to a Linux distro (like Ubuntu) see if it actually mounts. Linux doesnt need any drivers.
try downloading stock rom (link is somewhere in development section, i had a megaupload link... but... yea XD ), and put dload folder on sd card. then try installing this rom. if it doesnt help, try installing official 2.3 ^^

you porpose which linux software?
I use Ubuntu, so I know for a fact that it mounts all partitions. No drivers, nothing
http://www.ubuntu.com/download
EDIT: If you don't want to install it on your PC, since you only need to test your phone quickly. Just burn it on a CD and run a Live CD, it should still mount all partitions.
Ok so I will make this short. I got a computer with Windows 8 on it and I decided to dual boot it. When I did Ubuntu booted and I looked with Gparted to see if windows is still there and it said it was. I booted and than windows didn't boot at all. I went back into Ubuntu to check and it said that the partition was empty. I have a recovery image in a hard drive and a Recovery disc, plus a product key. I refuse to spend the money on a Windows 8 install disc because I already bought a copy, I have a key for it. I tried the windows installer thing that is supposed to give me an iso to use but it says my product key can not be used for it. I can get the recovery disc to boot and I tried re-installing from an image file but it doesn't see windows so I can't restore it.

I already tried it. It doesn't boot into it, I think that may be corrupt or something. If I can't figure this out I will just use Ubuntu. Not to big of deal, just want compatibility.

My stock recovery won't load. Any suggestions?

stock ROM
I have never been able to find a stock ROM for Blu devices. I tried finding one for my Blu Studio 5.5s and Bluproducts Support says you must mail your phone to the repair center, that they will not supply ROMs for their phones. Sad situation.
Also it's too late to warn you but anytime you connect a USB device that is known to work, even a little bit, when WIndows says that something needs formatting, NEVER do it, it usually means that there is a problem communicating that Windows believes is an unformatted memory card. This is hardly ever the case.
I guess we are on our own with these Blu phones until either they either take off in popularity and we see more recovery tools or they quite making them and after we have bricked them all due to lack of recovery tools.
Blu Factory Default Recovery for BLU 5.0 2/ 5.5s
Hello BLU User of 5.0 2/ 5.5s
Okay the first thing I will say " DO NOT..... I REPEAT.... DO NOT USE ANY Version OF AIO FLASHER "
because the program is a real B.S flasher.... 1. it hangs like crazy
2. their is no progress bar/ status bar
3. the only real thing that works is backup
4. all partition on drive is NOT PROTECTED
Meaning all partition will be erased if you f-up
hit yes when you should have press NO..
now with all that said both phone are great 5.0 2/ 5.5s
I Already Brick the crap out of Blu 5.0 2, Now I have the Blu 5.5s
All I want to do is Drop CWM on it..... to no avail..
I Can tell you this....... I manage to f-up the stock default recovery
so now there is no default recovery for on a brand new phone
I got it rooted no prob... all of my backup come without default
recovery..
the Question is how can i recreate the default recovery partition
on main system memory card or would it be possible to create that
partition on my 64G SDCARD Via the Computer ?
Edit:
Fixed: Reflash Preloader / EMI from original ROM - Boot into Factory menu (Not Recovery) Turn off the phone.
Start SPFlashTool - Select Scatter.txt (Make sure its Scatter from the Original ROM) - Flash Original FULL Rom - Reflash Boot/Recovery/Pre Entire ROM -
Adb Install Update
Done!
---------------------------
I have managed to brick the Blu Studio X today using SPFlashTool.
EMI Obtain DRAM Fail.
This started when I replaced Factory recovery with CWM which turned out to be even worst than Factory. I got it Rooted without issue but in an effort to Flash back to Stock Recovery, I was unsuccessful.
The phone is detected by the PC now but I cannot do anything. The battery is integrated also.
What I need is the entire Blu Stock ROM including the Preloader. Without this, I cannot Unbrick it. Any help or ideas would be great.
Very urgent please, how do I get into bootloader (factory menu) without going through recovery? My D830u is in a Blu logo boot loop without recovery or anything. I need fastboot mode
Hi Guys my MI A1 was bricked i just use the test point to fix and my pc recognized as Qualcomm 9008 so flashed latest 8.0 everything worked but wifi and bt was broken so i decided again to put in EDL and flash it with same firmware after that MI flash shows success but device doesn't turn it jsut keep blinking led and goes to EDL everytime i connect to PC...tried with Nougat and Oreo firmwares same...i checked logs and saysthat device is successfully flashed and rebooted...but nothing just black screen and blinking led..Can anyone Help me?I can't send to Service because i will need to wait 1 month also i opened the back cover so i lost the warranty.....:crying::crying:
Hi,
did you try to flash with qfil or only mi flash ?
I'm not sure but may you ask Cosmic Dan he was planing to do an unbrick guide and he mentioned files which you can use with qfil to unbrick your device. I don't know how far he is with it.
But if you did manage to unbrick so far and only BT and WiFi is your issue aren't there several fix guides for the persist partition ?
For my personal experience after I had to unbrick my old n6p I had the same issue after flashing. Phone stays black and led just blinking. Try to long pressing power, or other button combinations while plugg and unplugging USB to pc and I mean really long pressing the buttons. It sounds a bit weired but my n6p came back and booted as usual.
I'm sry, but I can't tell you the right combination because I tried so much that time, because it was my only phone.
Good luck !
Bro if You Have A Backup Of Your phone Then flash It.

Qfil doesn't work because we have A/B Partition Layout....i have backup of my partitions that's not issue....
How much battery had you left at flashing ? May its just drained and not able to boot. Sometimes it's the stupid and simple things. If you have partition backups you should be able to fix your WiFi and BT.

You can get it back. You have lost the Wifi and Bluetooth (Mac Address files). You can boot your phone if it is in edl mode. Just press the Power Button for more than 30-40 seconds. Your phone will boot. If possible, try to stick the back cover and show it to service center. They will change your phone's motherboard! They don't know about edl and everything! They only change internal parts! :good:

Try updating your drivers. Happened to me once, MiFlash didn't detect it, but driver MANUAL update helped.
If u r using Mac Then Try in windows with Fastboot Rom.
Phone sent to Service Center....hopefully they will repair with my warranty,So No releases/No Builds around 1 month
After lot of waiting (FROM 23 MAY) this is what i got from my service center
" AFTER SERVICE REVIEWS AND SOFTWARE INSTALATION DEVICE REMAINS WITH A LOADING / DAMAGED MEMORY CHIP"
"The phone is stuck in EDL Mode due to improper use and serious damage from all sides. The same after a service overview and software installation could not be turned on or raised (shows no signs). The service order states that if you want to service, you will be offered an offer to change the motherboard. Greeting"
After that they tell me this"
"Otherwise, changing the motherboard with a working hand would be around 182 USD. Greeting"
i don't have that money it's too much expensive for me so i'm without any phone....

Windows 10 Pro, QFIL latest (2.7 or so), I used the latest stock ROM (tissot_images_V9.5.11.0.ODHMIFA_8.0) provided by Xiaomi.
I can only recommend to extract a ROM to a path close to your volume root, for example D:\Temp\tissot_images_V9.5.11.0.ODHMIFA_8.0.
By using deeper paths you'll probably get errors. Flat build. :good:

I used the drivers provided by QFIL. Btw. flashing a flat build by QFIL recreates the partition layout, it really doesn't care about two system partitions.
Flashed EDL mode when I went back from treblizing earlier without going back to stock partition layout in first place.
Qualcomm Flash Image Loader handled it flawlessly to restore the standard gpt provided by rawprogram0.xml .

true, it restores the default partition layout, please pick one, that's what I used: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=QPST_2.7.438.3&atb=v89-4_g&ia=web
and here's the ROM link provided by Xiaomi: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.5.11.0....0.ODHMIFA_20180504.0000.00_8.0_1a04581058.tgz
Hey! I've got some real issues, please read my whole story and try to help me.
So, I've got Redmi 2 (wt80047) and I have installed an custom rom i.e..Atomic OS because that was the best of all, but I was facing issues of LTE network, it automatically disconnects, and then I have to restart my phone like 8-9 times to get the LTE network back , so I decided to switch back to stock ROM, and successfully I have re-installed my stock rom (MIUI8), afterwards I have downloaded some files like Magisk.zip and SuperSU.zip for rooting purpose, but I don't know what happened but my device was bricked, it was not openinig, it was stucked at logo, it was neither going in Fastboot mode nor my pc was detecting the device so I can flash again it with MI Flash tool. The only thing that was happening was that multiples drives were showing on my windows whenever I connect my Redmi 2 to pc like E: drive, F; drive, G, H, I: drive. So i have opened an application (Disk Partition Tool) and deleted all the drives. Then my device was ****ed x100. Now it is totally dead. No response, no powering on, no vibration, no fastboot mode, but now my PC and MI Flash Tool is recognizing it with COM6 (ports), so now whenever I try to flash it. it gives me error "Cannot receive hello packet" and sometimes "Ping target failed". Please Help Me, Pleasee!
Some Things that I have already tried:-
1.Tried every version of Mi Flash Tool
2. Tried chineese and global rom version both
3. Tried QFIL
4. Tried every ports on my cpu
5. Cannot flash it with cmd, coz adb and fastboot both does not recognize my device (Waiting for device...)
6. Pressed the Power button and then flashed it.
7. Remove the battery, short the EDL points, I have tried all the hardware stuff also.
I am stucked in this for like 1 month, and I have only this phone, my parents won't give me a new one.
Help!)
Looks to me the phone was connected to Windows computer in USB-MTP mode, so the computer believed the phone to be a portable media player and/or USB-drive. Deleting partitions always causes a complete data loss. Hence it's not wondering me that the phone actually is dead: you fully wiped it.
