Need help with soft brick

I used the afterota tool to install ics bootloader and twrp 2.1.3 recovery. I have tried flashing Acer_AV041_A500_1.054.00_WW_GEN1-DEODEXED-FULLROOT.zip. It says it flashed but when I try to boot it never gets past the screen that says acer. Can anyone point me to a guide that can help me get it booting properly?

Found the problem. Although I thought I flashed the ICS bootloader, I must have still been on the HC bootloader. I reflashed the ROM along with the HC kernel, and it booted up.

[Q] Flashing back to 4.2.2

Hey guys, Hopefully somebody can help me here.
Basically i flashed & rooted my D802 to 4.4.2 using this method > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2680789
All was running fine however somewhere along the line something has messed up! I tried to boot into recovery and now im hit with "Secure Booting Error! Cause : boot certification verify" instead of TWRP!
Ive tried to use this method > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625044 to flash back to stock and unroot BUT when i get to step 5. of method 1. instead of asking to to Select Country & Language it starts the LGMobile Support Tool and the tool tells me i have the latest available software for my device.
The phone is running fine and i can get into download mode.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Anybody got any ideas?

The ROM you flashed is from my thread. I'm not sure why you think custom recovery remains available? Unless I've missed something else you did. It is overwritten by the stock ROM when flashed. Hence I clearly stated that custom recovery will no longer be available.
I don't know what "messed up" with the ROM?
I suggest you revisit the page you used and try the alternative method if you really fell the need to downgrade...

Well after 5 house of messing around i managed to ADB push CM11 too my device, Boot the phone then connect to my PC then re-flash 4.4.2 & root using this method > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2680789

Cannot boot into recovery

hi guys,
I tried to flashing twrp recovery 2.*** (3.0 was already installed) using flashify on my already rooted op2 (running on SkyDragon-H2OS-v2). And now I'm unable to boot into recovery.
things i tried:
# flashing recovery using fastboot (both twrp and stock). flashing was successful, still no luck.
#tried flashing via flashify again, still no luck
# tried unbricking method, but when I connect my phone holding volume+, windows recognizes something, but nothing visible anywhere in device manager.
Please guys, any way out will be helpful.
PS- I can boot normally to SkyDragon, phone is rooted and oem unlocked

Know it doesn't all apply to you but you could try running the firstaid file

Thanks for the reply mate.... The issue is resolved now. Using mm tools I recovered the recovery and then installed oxygen as an ota using stock recovery.
All is well now.

I stuck in bootlogo when booting into custom rom

I tried to unlock my bootloader with the Asus official unlock tool. But failed to unlock then I used this method [url]https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-2-laser/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-asus-unlock-app-t3405850[/URL] to unlock my bootloader and successfully unlocked my bootloader. Then I installed twrp using fastboot. I saw an error in my twrp which is -failed to mount/factory invalid argument. After all of these I installed custom rom and gapps successfully (I wiped cache after installation) then I reboot my device and my device was stuck in boot logo. I waited more than 30mins but nothing happened. No matter which rom I tried but had to face the same problem every time.
Is the twrp errors the main problem of my bootloop?
If it then how to fix it ?
Please help me I posted here with lots of hope. I hope I'll find a
good suggestion which might help me out. I don't want to stay in marshmallow anymore please help me ??.
Please forgive me for my English.

I got the same problem but error was in /asdf partition. So after wiping that my problem got solved.
You also try wiping everything except internal storage and SD card. Then install rom and gapps and check. :good:

Phone won't boot?

Hello, I was trying to root my phone last night, I unlocked the boot loader that worked perfectly, easy. Nothing else went well, I was fighting with it TWRP for hours and then Magisk wouldn't install. I gave up on that and tried SuperSu... now the phone just stays on the loading screen instead of booting, It won't boot into recovery either just fastboot. Can it be fixed?

Your phone is soft bricked and can only boot to bootloader, correct?
The only solution is flashing the stock ROM of the device. You can get your device (Tissot) stock ROM from here.

I just got it to boot into TWRP, after it cycled a few times.

Well that may make it easier, you can try wiping dalvik cache then wiping data and see if that works. Needless to say wiping data is going to delete all your personal data, but since you're in TWRP recovery you can back it up.

Wiping it didn't work, I'm trying to use MiFlash I have downloaded "Tissot_9.0_V10.0.10.0.PDHMIXM_Fastboot" my phone is in fastboot. MiFlash detects it but when I try to flash I just get "can not found file flash_all_lock.bat"
How do you tell is MiFlash has successfully installed drivers, it gives me a window in Chinese?

If it's not working - I never thought it would anyway - then your only option is to flash stock ROM.
You can try using fastboot commands through cmd window, if it returns <waiting for device> or something similar then the driver isn't installed properly. Alternatively you can install the driver from here.

Thanks, it detects my phone. How would you recommend flashing the stock ROM? Do I need to use the same version the phone was running before?

You can use any version as long as it is meant for your device. Flashing the latest version might be best option.
Happy to help.

I tried flashing it with TWRP but just got "no digest file found" I'll try again tomorrow.
This must be the most annoying thing I've done with electronics in years, nothing wants to work.

Lemme guess, you have TWRP v3.2.2-0? Try flashing the latest version from here.

v3.2.1 anyway it's gone now, I got it booting with the guide on https://xiaomifirmware.com/roms/download-official-roms-xiaomi-mi-a1/
probably the best written one I've found.
Now to try and root it again...

You can find that in an XDA revised article here.

I got TWRP and Magisk installed no problem. I don't know if I was just tired or it was the crap guides but nothing wanted to cooperate on my first attempt.
Thanks for all the help.
