First of all thanks for not caring. I spend days on Internet trying to find a solution. I have Blade which I bricked thanks to my noob skills with flashing and similiar ****. I just want my normal phone back. Couldn't give a **** bout roms anymore. Sorry for the lang but Im mad. When I boot it up it just sits there on green android logo not going past. I can enter download mode if it matters. As soon as I back it up Im getting rid of cwm mode and bull****. I use my sister phone to transfer files on my sd card. I cant enter my recovery mode since I installed that **** of cwm.When I try the key combo-android logo stuck with red light on. My phone has 90-100% battery Im sure. I need a solution where I can do something from pc with download mode or something that will automatecly start when I boot up my phone that I transfered on my SD card. Please guys let me have some sleep. I've been staying all night long just to unbrick it. Dont mention any flashing rooting ****ing...I developed alergy to those words. I want it simple ..please...any help is appreciated. And sorry for my language.

Calm down dude. If you can get in Download Mode , you are lucky. I even know people who had not get to Download Mode and had began to cry , cause the phones were only 3-4 Weeks old. Back to your problem.]First download here the stock rom.[/URL]
Then you need the Android SDK and the platform-tools from Google , so download it , cause you need ADB. Click here to get Android SDK.Then you need the ZTE drivers. Click here to get the drivers.Now get into download mode and connect the device via USB to your PC. Copy the boot.img (or recovery.img if it is in the ZIP package) and flash it via Fastboot (command: fastboot recovery.img) . Now you got the stock recovery. Now push the FULL update.zip at your sdcard , and now go to recovery , and update from sdcard , choose the update.zip ... Flashing takes a while. DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING BEFORE OR AFTER CHOOSING "UPDATE.ZIP" . Now your Phone should fully works normally
Hello, I have also bricked ZTE BLADE 3(I flashed a wrong kernel....). It only turns the red light on when i turn it on and blank screen, does not respond to vol + and vol - key, no android logo, but when I connect it to the computer via usb in Device Manager a COM port opens with the name ZTE DFU(Diagnostic interface). If anyone has experience of reviving this device from this mess? Thank you for your time

Your download screen is destroyed , but you are still able to get into it.
Try to get into it and flash the kernel with fastboot , the screen will bug during fastboot procedure.
My screen is completely blank and black, just the red light showing when i turn it on and it is always on. It does not respond on power button + vol. down, power button + vol. up, power button + vol. down + vol. up. When I connect it to the computer it does not show me a usb flash drive although I have the zte drivers installed and another sd card inside, but in Device Manager I can see it as a COM port(DFU) Diagnostic Interface. I tried accessing the bootloader via adb but it doesnt even list it with command "adb devices". I also tried flashing the recovery image via "fastboot recovery recovery.img" and "fastboot recovery.img" and still no luck, it just hangs at "waiting for device"...

When the red light still comes up , you still got chances to get it fixed...
I think so too.. but how? The only method left is JTAG... I saw a thread about using a TPT image to flash low level firmware using ZTEflash.exe but that thread was for ZTE Skate I think, I could not find the tpt.img file for zte blade 3.... Is there any other method via usb cable? Or send it to the shop?
Well, here is my situation:
Got a BLADE III Pro
Tried to root it and i played with few tools found on xda and other places (android forums). No luck at all. Tried to flash a CWM and NO LUCK neither. Tried to go back to flash stock CWM (as i was afraid of bricking it), searched for stock cwm and there is my BRICKED phone. When trying to hold volume down and power botton (both for over 20 seconds even) it will show a green android and its stuck there for hours. When trying to go to fast boot mode the same happens (with volume up and power botton).
While trying these two options the PC (Windows 7 64 bit) wont recognize the phone pluged in.
The only way the PC makes a sound is when i hold both volume up and down bottons and power it or plug it in the PC (without the battery even).
I need to know how can i fix it to boot only. PLEASE. Is this a "throw on can" phone now or it can be brought to life? PLEASE TELL ME PEOPLE.
pm me or any info as soon as you guys can.
I will respond to any question you might have.
Thank you in advance.
I have sent my phone to the shop and they said that they would need a jtag box specific for this model or a new motherboard for zte blade 3.... I think this the end for my zte blade 3
hello. I have a problem. My ZTE Blade 3 will not start. nacikam when the power button the phone only vibrates every second until you let go of the button, nothing displays. FTM mode is activated (vol- + power) did not cause it can be run through (vol- + usb connection), but turns off after a few moments. I can still run it through (vol- + vol + + usb connection). I would like to install the firmware and run the phone. I tried to install via QPST but I do not know how. The phone is detected as ZTE Handset Diagnostic Interface (DFU) (COM17). Please help to repair your phone. I warn that I do not have service BOX. Thanx for help and advice
Hi all,
I have a problem and hope you can help me.
I was on Cloudyfa 3.2 and want to go back to stock.
Tried to flash the kdz with the LG tool but it says the phone is rooted and stopped at 2%
I found a tip on XDA to do a reset (advancd wipe, not internal storage) and then turn phone off and boot to downloadmodus.
After that the phone still says rooted with red letter. Flashing kdz still not possible.
Now comes to problem.....i can't enter recovery again.
I tried volume + and power. volume + and power, volume +- and power.
In all those combinations with phone off, push volume buttons, then power. If I see the lg logo, release the buttons and push the volume buttons again.
Tried those combinations several times but unfortunately no recovery.
I can go to downloadmodus but then..........LG flash tool doesn't worok.
Can somebody help me???
Update:
Tried two laptops (windows 7 & 8). Drivers installed correct.
kdz flash stuck at 2%
Please help me. I am in a sort of panic right now.
I have a ZTE Blade C2 v809, sold here in Portugal as Meo Smart A12. It was rooted and working fine. I was however getting some error 24's trying to install apps. I thought this might have had to do with using Titanium Backup to remove TouchPal (I did make a backup first), so I decided to restore TouchPal. There were however some errors in the restore and it was stuck there, so I decided to reboot the phone.
Chaos. Now it wont boot. If I press the button normally, the phone boots, I see the android logo, the screen goes black (Not shutdown black, a sort of light black background) and nothing happens. If I try to boot into Recovery mode by holding the power button and the volume down key, I just get the android logo stuck there, nothing happens. If I hold the power button and the volume up key, I get the picture of that laying down android with the message error.
Any more info I must provide please tell me, I am desperate for a solution, If I lose this phone I wont be able to get another one.
Okay I fixed it. Turns out the recovery menu DID work if I waited for a long time and tapped the screen. Used the update.zip available from the site, and it works like a charm
Yay, I bricked my phone, too.
I did something similar, changed recovery-from-boot.p name to recovery-from-boot.p-bak and install-recovery.sh to install-recovery.sh-bak
Now the phone doesn't boot properly, in fact it's stuck in a boot loop:
>starts
>shows white ZTE logo on screen
>restarts
Tried connecting the phone via USB cable and used fastboot devices & adb devices commands, no devices found.
Also tried pressing "power + vol down" and "power + vol up", nothing. I can't enter recovery mode or bootloader.
Apparently the remaining way to get in it's trough the SD slot, or maybe there's another way.
I kindly ask for help, couldn't be possible that I ruined this cell phone so fast.
Ideas, somebody?
so i need to somehow revive my redmi 7a from its grim state. Everything started with scuffed attempt at downloaded system update that resulted in a loop of turn on-update up to some %-freeze-repeat. when i tried to do something with it it resulted in total hard-lock. all my phone can do now is turn on greet me with a logo screen with android at the bottom then that same screen without the android logo and it stays there for indefinite amount of time. fastboot's not opening so does recovery mode, all that i can do is turn it on and stare at the logo screen. please somebody help

does this mean you have tried the power-button + volume-up to enter recovery mode and the power-button + volume-down to enter fastboot-(bootloader-)mode?
i once had success with a bricked redmi by pressing the combinations for about 3 minutes until it managed to enter recovery mode. and make sure that your phone is completely full charged.
have you already tried the "Mi_Flash2020" application for Windows? here is the link: https://c.mi.com/in/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
rom files if needed: https://c.mi.com//miuidownload/detail?device=1900369
maybe the "miflash_unlock..." application could also help you. i think it uses fastboot but give it a try. here is the link: https://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html (if you have unlocked bootloader make sure you to uncheck the "lock device" option at the bottom)
more questions if you can't solve it:
is twrp installed?
was there an original miui rom intalled?
was it a ota update?
