Hi guys,
I have problem with my Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet. One day it just stopped working and get stuck on Lenovo logo on start. I tried to use recovery mod (pushing VOL UP several times during start), it says that it cant mount /cache directory. I tried Wipe cache and Factory reset options, non worked, still same problem. So I googled and found, that I am not the only one with this problem. I found and read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2318140 and then this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745450 and flashed CWM on partition 6, so now I have CWM-based Recovery (v6.0.1.2). I downloaded CyanogenMod (CM10 Alpha 0.8.1), copied to my SD Card (formated as FAT32) and tried Install zip from sdcard -> Choose zip from external sdcard. But I get E: Cant mount /extern_sd/ and I am stuck.
Tried to google this, but I found only alternative recovery mod (TWRP), but it cant be used for my device (at least I think so, since Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet is not listed in supported devices list).
Can you give me any pointers what to do next? I am kinda lost now
You need to re-format the external SD-Card on a computer, reload your files and then try again on the Tablet.
The tablet cannot access the card, it isn't your fault. Happens more often than you think. Just make sure you back up your sd-card contents before format.

Thanks for reply mate, I have tried this three times, even with another SD, still getting the same error -> "Cant mount /external_sd/", my SD is formated as FAT32 and has only CM zip on it. I can read it in my android phone and computer with no problem, but in tablet it isnt working
Shoot. Sorry that wasn't any help.
Have you tried booting to Dev mode and then rebooting or pressing the battery disconnect button?
My thought is to try to bust it out of a bad funk.

Hmm, I have not, how can I do that?
The battery disconnect is the tiny, recessed, round button under the Sim Card/SD Card flap. With no charger connected, use a pen tip or paper clip. This completely (albeit temporarily) disconnects the battery and is the ultimate "shut down".
Dev mode - I should have called it Bootloader mode. From Battery Disconnect shut down, Hold Rotation button and press Power button for approx 2 seconds. You'll see that the red light on the back will light, but you'll likely not see anything on the screen. This is used when managing your device from a terminal on a different machine while connected via USB. Anyways, nothing I recommend to do here. Just forcing the device to go into other modes might help your issue.
I would use the battery disconnect button again to exit bootloader mode, or else long-holding the power button should do it.
Hi Pirozek
Since you already flashed CWM on partition 6, I guess you already have used nvflash and your bootloader is unlocked.
There was some discussion on flashing the other partitions of the tablet here "Can I reflash Lenovo thinkpad from NVFlash? Comands pls ?". A forum member used to share the original partition files but are not available anymore.
I don't have much experience using nvflash, but I think that you have a chance to fix it since you have your bootloader unlocked, we just need to get the images files.

A year or two so ago I updated my Motorola Milestone 2 to CyanogenMod, Android 4.1 I think, with no trouble.
I though that I'd take advantage of the CM11 (cm-11-20141003-UNOFFICIAL-milestone2.zip) and I attempted to upgrade to this.
I found that, after booting to the recovery utility, that would not accept this zip file. I noticed that czechop says:
Install my CM10.2 version >= 07.11.2013 first
So I installed cm-10.2-20140312-UNOFFICIAL-milestone2.zip and that went like a breeze. The phone booted up with the new version of Android. I then booted this into the recovery utility and found a new style of this ('Teamworks', I think) with a graphical interface. I found that this liked the cm11 zip file and it installed it without any apparent problem - it reported success and gave me two options - 'clear cache dalvik' (or something very similar), and 'reboot'. I opted for the clear cache, and that seemed to go OK, then I opted for 'reboot'.
This is where my heart sank, because the phone started to boot with the Motorola 'M' logo, then that faded out, then back in, then out. I see no little coloured LED light, and the phone seems to cycle around with the 'M' display, never getting anywhere.
What should I do now? I tried to boot the phone into the original Motorola recovery, holding down the keyboard 'X' key whilst switching on, but that just brings up a little picture of an orange triangle with a '!' in it.

David
Hi,
Your best option is to ask for help in the thread you downloaded the rom from.
Good luck!
Thanks

Thanks. Unfortunately the site won't let me post there. I'm a new member.
Ah, There's no Q&A section. Normally now if you post in a development thread it automatically creates or posts in a thread in your device section Q&A.... But this won't work cause your section has no Q&A.
I will have your thread moved to your devices General section.
Good luck!

I am going to journal my experiences with this, in the hope that it will be useful to someone else.
Possibly the mistake that I made when flashing the CM11 (see above) is that I didn't put the md5 sum file onto the SD card with the archive. Note that all downloads have a .zip and a .zip.md5sum file. The phone output a message to say that it couldn't find a checksum, but that it was going ahead anyway. Possibly, had I put the md5sum file in, a fault with the zip file would have been detected and I may have been saved from this issue.
I have found references to a 'Motorola factory cable' which is a cable that is wired to persuade the phone not to worry about battery state and to operate the flashing utility from the usb cable power. this is obviously useful in the factory for programming the phone without a battery. See this link for information:
[unfortunately the site didn't allow me to attach a url to 'www dot droidforums dot net' where you might find a posting 'how-why-to-make-your-own-motorola-factory-cable', which is a well-writen and informative article]
My phone is in a state that the charger will operate to charge the battery as normal when the charger is plugged in with the phone off. It still shows the image of a battery filling up. Therefore I can keep my battery in good condition between recovery attempts, and I don't think I'll need any special cables.
My technique for putting the archives onto the SD card is to take the card out of the phone and put it into my laptop, so that I can simply manage the files on it with standard Windows file browser.
I can get to a very promising recovery utility by holding down the 'X' key on the keyboard whilst switching the phone on. The Motorola 'M' logo comes up and the screen then displays a 3D orange triangle with an exclamation mark and a little green Android man. If I press the keyboard '@' at this point, I jump into a recovery menu.
The recovery menu has options:
* 'reboot system now'
* 'apply sdcard:update.zip'
* 'wipe data/factory reset'
* 'wipe cache partition'
The 'apply sdcard:update.zip' seems to offer the promise of recovery.
I have tried placing both:
* cm-10.2-20140312-UNOFFICIAL-milestone2 (.zip and .zip.md5sum)
and
* cm-11-20141003-UNOFFICIAL-milestone2 (.zip and .zip.md5sum)
onto the sdcard (renamed as 'update.zip' and 'update.zip.md5sum').
In both cases the recovery utility says:
---
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/caller
-- Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted
---
If I remove the update.zip.md5sum file, the result is identical. Therefore I don't think that this utility is using the md5sum for archive file verification. The problem that I seem to have at the moment is that I need an archive in the right format for the factory recovery utility.
I will be researching this and will add to this thread when I find an answer.
As a little bit of extra information, whilst fiddling about with the buttons during power up, I did manage to get a screen that said:
---
Bootloader
70.12
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
---
I guess that this is a lower stage in the bootloader chain, and suggests that there is hope if your phone is screwed up to the extent that you can't get the factory recovery utility. Thankfully, I don't seem to need to investigate what is required at the PC end to make use of this low level programming aid. (If anyone knows, it would be good to hear the details, for future reference and help to others).
Alas, I'm not sure what I did to bring this screen up - I fiddled with the volume, camera, and power buttons whilst the phone was starting up.

David
Hello.
1. You don't need no 'factory cable'. All you need to come back to stock ROM is PC, RSDlite software, generic USB<->micro USB cable, and a stock ROM sbf file. The question what to do with a bricked phone was answered here plenty of times. Almost always the best way to bring a dead phone back to life is to flash a stock ROM (with bootloader version >= of version of current one).
2. You seem to have an older bootloader (the latest is 70.13 included in Ginger Bread ROMs), but you don't have to flash a newer one. Just remember, that bootloader is locked and cannot bet downgraded, so if you flash a newer one, you will never be able to flash generic ROMs with an older version. For example after I flashed 70.13 GB, a was unable to flash Froyo ROM over it (but you'll still be able to flash Froyo based CM7 with some tricks).
3. If you can access TeamWinRecovery (the graphicac one), you can simply clear system/cache partitions, and flash any custom ROM zip (for example Czechop's 10.2).
4. The stock recovery (with an exclamation mark, then you press both vol up and down to access menu) doesn't allow to flash unsigned zip images (and none of custom ROMs is signed with Motorola key). What you can do there is try to clear cache/data (factory reset). Sometimes some information in /data is preventing ROM from booting, if you changed ROM.
5. What You described is called a 'bootloop' - rebooting endlessly.
Progress

Thank you very much. I have spent all day researching this.
I have discovered 'RSD Lite' and the ability to get the phone into the bootloader mode that I described by starting the phone and keeping the camera and volume buttons pressed.
I can boot to the stock recovery mode by powering up with the 'X' key pressed and then pressing '@'
I don't think that I can access TeamWinRecovery. There may be some way to do this that I don't know.
I did do a complete 'Nandroid?' backup of the system before I started this, so I guess that if I can get TeamWinRecovery or clockworkmod recovery back, I can restore to my previous working state.
What I have tried is 'G.O.T.’s OpenRecovery' to get a recovery installed. I put the OpenRecovery folder and the update.zip onto the SDcard and tried to flash it with the stock recovery utility. I got the "E:EOCD marker occurs after start of EOCD E:signature verification failed" error. I read that this means that I am not properly rooted (I thought I was) and I need to install 'vulnerable recovery' using an sbf file and RSD Lite. I have tried 'vulnerable_recovery_only_RAMDLD90_78.sbf' but the process errors, and what I read suggests that this might be due to the older bootloader version.
I tried to find an old stock android sbf for the phone, but all the links to such things seem to be dead.
I did try the factory reset from the stock recovery as a means to fix the bootloop. It didn't work.
You clearly know a lot about this. I would appreciate help to get back to something that works, maybe the last backup that I did.
I am also puzzled by why the upgrade to the CM11 from the CM10.2 failed. Did I do something wrong, or is there some compatibility issue with my phone? I never had a problem updating from the original motorola software to the cyanogenmod, then to the CM10.2.
I think I became a little over-confident.
Thank you in anticipation,
David

Ah! the penny drops. The stock recovery that I can access will only install archives signed by Motorola. Hence the signature errors that I get when I try anything else. So I understand that if I can only get to the stock recovery, I can only use it to reinstall a stock android.
So the problem is where to find a stock sbf file to reinstall Motorola android as a first step to getting back to CM.
I guess that this is the only way to get back to clockworkmod recovery or teamwin recovery?
If I can get one of these recoverys running, I can simply restore to the last working system, I guess?

I realise that I was mistaken about this. There is no image of a battery filling up. The white LED by the USB socket lights when the charger is plugged in, but I can't be sure that the battery is charging.
Are you sure you're trying to flash a proper recovery? I remember there was a 'vulnerable recovery' for milestone 1, but no such thing for MS2. As you wrote, signature errors while trying to flash zips from stock recovery are due to lack of Motorola signature, not to problems with root. Root access has nothing to do with recovery, it is something much later/higher in system.
So again, what to do to unbrick the MS2:
1. Get a stock ROM - I suggest lates European one with 70.13 bootloader. There are also later Latin America ROMs, but they lead to more problems with custom ROMs. SBF's were published somewhere in these forums. If you cannot find them, write, and I'll upload one to some file sharing servers if I have time (I'll be staying at work for next 30 hours or so).
2. Get RSD lite and latest Motorola USB drivers (they're on the web), install. Before flashing remember you cannot use an USB 3 port - the best way is to turn USB 3 support off in computer BIOS.
3. Enter the flash mode in MS2. Connect is with generic USB cable to PC.
4. Run RSD lite, flash SBF, wait until phone reboots - it can take several minutes. If it freezes - try to enter stock recovery and wipe data/cache.
After these steps you should have a clear installation of stock ROM. Then you have to root, install Droid2 Bootstrap, install CM 10 or 10.1 -> 10.2 -> 11. If you have problems with these, write, and I'll write more detailed instructions.
PS. By the way, to enter TWR or CWM recovery you have to press vol down while a blue led is lit for a short time during reboot.
1000 Thanks

I can't thank you enough. I'm currently downloading your stock ROM. I already have what I think is the latest verion of RSD Lite (6.1.6) installed on my Windows 8.1 laptop (I've read about problems with more contemporary versions of Windows, but I have successfully connected to the phone before now, just haven't had joy with flashing the file that I tried). I am fingers crossed that all will go well, and I'll certainly note that here. Otherwise I very much appreciate your offer of further help.
Bets regards,
David

recommend you return the original rom using RSDlite and start doing it all over again putting the rom CM10 and then cm11
Hi everybody.
TL;DR
Recovery hangs upon booting and fastboot mode doesn't show up ADB interface on my PC. How to flash the phone?
Long version:
I wonder if you can help me. My old faithful Note 3 is badly misbehaving. Yesterday I filled almost all its internal memory with some movies before heading out on a trip, but some time later when I reset the phone after unusually long boot all user settings were lost. Well, something went wrong, couple of hours later there was reset after reset so I wanted to restore previous backup... but couldn't. TWRP was showing error messages (TAR something something, 255) very shortly into restoring process. It couldn't restore backup but also couldn't make new one as well (similar error with TAR and code 255 when trying to backup user data).
Something was very wrong, so I thought maybe I will flash newer TWRP 3.0 and give it a try but suddenly after next reset I couldn't even get into recovery anymore - TWRP gives me black screen after several seconds into booting it. No icons, no reaction to key presses, nothing. Even holding power button does nothing.
Ooooookay, it's time to enter fastboot mode then and flash new recovery manually. So I enter it, connect phone to my laptop and... nothing! No ADB interface. Some kind of samsung driver is installing, but the most important one, for ADB, just doesn't show up. It's really weird. Reinstalling drivers doesn't help, only the same one device that shows up gets different names, but that's it - no ADB interface, and, effectively, I can't flash anything because fastbot and ADB can't see any device. Odin can't see the phone too.
What's going on? Is the internal flash dying or what? But if so what does it have to do with ADB not showing up? Do you have any ideas that I can try out in this situation? I checked my laptop with a tablet that I have on hand and it shows up its ADB interface without problem in fastboot mode even though it's the first time I connect it to this laptop, so laptop and it's system are fine.
If nothing helps then, well, One+ 3, here I come.
EDIT: Problem solved. Turns out f2fs on data partition crashed and therefore TWRP couldn't start at all. I managed to flash Philz CWM via Odin somehow (after messing with drivers for some more time) which told me there is something wrong with /data because it couldn't mount it at all. It couldn't format it either. Fortunately SlimLP managed to start and after throwing up some errors I managed to do factory reset which formatted the internal memory back to ext4. Then flashing TWRP, formatting data back to f2fs, restoring backup and voila! It works again. Good, I'll wait until Note 8 if there ever will be one.
Hello Fellows,
First I'd like to explain my situation in details.
my phone fell while i was walking on the street and it got some dirt on it, so ( foolishly ) I decided to clean it.... and yeah... i washed my phone like washing a dish... i like rinsed the phone in water and in other cleaning liquids for no more than 3 seconds it was all quick thingy... anyway after washing it.... i directly powered it ON and it powered but the screen was OFF ( so i decided to power it OFF, solder it and to remove any clues of water inside on the board or something... after that i used a hairdryer ( which is not recommended ) but i used it at a descent distance so that no harm would be caused to the board... as i was only subjecting air to let water if any existed to dry..
i put the phone in rise and kept it for 1 day... after 1 day i wanted to check out how stuff went.. so i powered it ON and the screen actually turned ON and the vibrator, even the hardware back-light lighted up perfectly but here's the problem I'm facing.
the phone only boots into TWRP 3.1.0.0 no matter what i do.. things i tried:
1- flashed some ROM, through TWRP
2- used "Fixed Contexts" in TWRP
3- Repair File System "System partition" through TWRP
4- used file manager inside TWRP and checked if the internal storage is working and indeed i can show all my files, through TWRP
5- also used the file manager to access "System" Partition and everything was there, through TWRP
6- change File System into EXT4 "System partition" through TWRP
7- Resize File System "System partition" through TWRP
8- Wiping all Partitions "Excluding the internal storage"
and NON WORKED..
note that whenever i attempt to flash a ROM the result shows successful with no errors ..
so whats the problem in here?
i have a guess but i need help in order to apply it.. i think the VOL- is pressed and stuck somehow Electrically on the board ( but no physically as i can press the volume down and hear its tap or whatever you call it.. i even managed to boot into fast-boot and it worked.
is there anyway i can disable the vol- button temporary to see if its causing the problem?
the only thing is i cant see my ROM booting... not even the boot animation showing... just the boot-loader and automatically it goes into the recovery
also i have kernel log attached below followed by the recovery log
EDIT: i also forgot to mention that my PC recognize the phone and i have access to my internal storage.. no problems with transfer speed as well
after tons of attempts and searching online and flashing stuff and blablabla... (i flashed every recovery image op2 support )
FINALLY
I found the solution my self, and everything is back to normal...
the phone was stuck at the early stage of the booting process and maybe couldn't find the boot image in order to boot up the android OS, so all i did was i plugged in the phone into the PC, i started everything in fastboot mode on phone and on PC then i just sent the following command to my phone.
Code:
fastboot continue
fastboot then(meaning after the command) wasnt able to recognize the phone anymore so i knew that its now trying to search for partitions other than recovery.. i waited like 10 seconds and booom it booted into the best ROM i've ever used ( and actually missed ) which is Official RR from our great maintainer "nicesoni_ash"
P.S: the vol- as i said was really stuck and i noticed it not working while on RR ROM, so i just clicked it many times and tried mixing vol+ with vol- .. after many many attempts vol- worked and i then rebooted to make sure if everything is back to normal and no recovery auto boots and indeed it smoothly booted up :laugh:
thanks a lot for all who tried to help out in here or on oneplus forums :highfive:

Did you try reverting to stock ?
Try getting files from here..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/rom-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-roms-ota-t3209863
I would consider it as bricked, after all attempts failed and go with the unbrick guide here on xda or oneplus forums, maybe this way it can be ressurected.
You probably have already backed up your data..
Damn, that hurts..

sorry for this late reply but yes i have tried flashing every ROM from stock to Custom ones even i flashed EVERY SINGLE RECOVERY IMAGE OUR PHONE SUPPORTS XD and non worked... first aid.. qualcomm toolkit... non...
hello bro, i updated a magisk module v4android and when i reboot, it boots up in twrp. and since then it keeps booting into twrp. So, i used fastboot continue and when it boot int the home i deleted that module.
but fastboot continue only works once. After that if i switch-off and switch-on the phone, it goes into twrp. it needs fastboot continue everytime.
please provide me a permanent solution. few other users are facing this too. plz reply i'm waiting.
Hey,
with the help of some others in a Discord server (thanks @thesanjayp#6251 on discord) i managed to find the issue. Appearantly there was a change in /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc for some reason. There was a similar problem on the old LG Optimus G Pro which i owned, so i remembered this.
As I'm not sure if we can just wipe the partition or not, i got a working misc.img attached.
In any terminal (adb shell, twrp terminal or an terminal app in a rom) make sure you have su rights, and then execute the following command:
Code:
dd if=/path/to/misc.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc
Make sure to adapt the path to the misc.img though to the location you saved it to.
The misc.img I used is attached to this post.
PS: Im not responsible for any broken phones if this didnt work for you.
