Bootloop after UnBrick

Hello,
I try to Unbrick my A500 with Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.122.01_EMEA_GEN5_update.zip.
At the first time it works, I can boot and I want to flash the system.ing and boot.img for Acer_A500_1.141.07_COM_GEN1 with the Acer ROM Flasher to get german language support.
The HowTo in den Android-hilfe tells my that I will get an error after reboot (right) and than I have to flash another update (can´t post link because I´m a noobie)
Now I´m stick in a bootloaderloop (android logo) and nothing will help.
I try flash the unbrick update again, but the only thing I get is the Bootloop at the android logo.
I need some serious help for this.
Thanks guys

Doesn't sound like your getting into recovery with the update.zip. make sure you keep holding down the vol- button until you see the little green man. Don't let go of it when you see the big "Acer".
After doing the update.zip to unbrick, run itsmagice BEFORE running Acer Rom Flasher. Then flash the boot and system images from that thread. Then reboot after the 6 minute window. It should boot normally.
Or just stick to the instructions in the other thread... I think your just not getting into recovery correctly.
PS.. Acer Rom Flasher is going to get an update when I get the chance.

this seems to be the solution. Thanks for your [TIP]
Well now I´m chinese, but I try the Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.122.01_EMEA_GEN5_update now.
Edit: It does work. Now I try the boot.img and system.img.

i had same problem
I had the same problem with that zip. It was corrupted. Found an other source update.acer.zip and it worked, but some chinese apps came with it. List few other thing. The update.acer.zip would hot boot. The zip had folder with an other update.acer.zip in it. After extracting the zip from the zip it worked.

Help me,, Cannot boot in to recovery

Please help needed!!
I'm stuck here for 3 days
Ok I'm going to tell everything I did,,
My Gionee E7 is indian version.
First I rooted my phone with kingo Root.
Than I flashed CWM chinese version.
I upgraded my system to kitkat and changed the recovery to stock.
I used it for a week than some how my music player and gallery were corrupted.
I don't have any rom so I download one but it was in chinese, flashed it to my gionee. than after rooting,,
I flashed the CWM, same I flashed weeks ago
Here my problem started :crying:
The CWM is not starting. I used recoery tool to boot into recovery after boot up it shows black screen. I used every method holding Vol+ and power button but the same result.
than I tired to get back to my stock recovery but it does the same.
flashed many times both recoveries but didn't worked.
I searched a lot and find a TWRP. I flashed it and wow it worked Finally I can boot into recoery mode.
Now I find the Nandroid backup of indian version. I made it a zip and flashed it through twrp.
My phone is back to indian version but its slow, not too much but its slow; camera, gallery and other apps take some time to open. I can't make or rcv phone calls. Now what i did is download the update form System update.
Now i got kitkat rom.zip but twrp failed to install it.
Some one on the internet was saying that its the problem with my Kernel. I have the latest kernel so CWM won't work cuz it uses old kernel and display drivers.
My
android version is 4.2.2
Kernel version is 3.4.0-svn2155
I also got TWRP for lolipop,
and I patched binary_update in my kitkat rom too but TWRP can't flash it
Thats my whooooolllleeeee story. "
I got stuck with this for almost 3 days now I'm damn tired can't do it anymore plz help :crying::crying::crying:

I'm posting it here so if anyone gets stuck like me could solve his issue
I used GNQC Download tool and flashed the whole firmware of my cell including, kernel, rom, recovery, boot everything.

Hello my friend, please help me.
I am trying to flash stock inidan rom 4.2 but.. I installed all CWM for E7 found on the internet and I am getting black screen. I managed to Install TWRP but TWRP cannot flash the rom that I need to flash. I flashed a chinese 4.2 but is piece of garbage..
gngc-download-tool said that the com port is closed.
I have windows 64 is this the problem causing gngc not working?

No its not, it is working on 64bit windows very well.
In TWRP factory reset and format system and data, than install
Chinese 4.2 ROM. After that boot it and try it again.
It should work!

Help
I just rooted my gionee elife e7. Flashed the chinese recovery which seemed to be the only one which would be compatible. But, while changing a few setting using pimp my rom, the software just stopped working. Errors keep showing up on the screen - "system.ui is not working", "android app is not working", I cannot even go the settings because "settings is not working". Third party apps still seem to work, so, whatsap and stuff continue to function. Doing a factory reset or flashing firmware again seem to be the only viable option.
But, when I try to load up the bootloader using the power and volume keys, it gets stuck on the screen showing the gionee logo and it reads 'fastboot mode' in the bottom left hand side corner. So,
a. can you offer any advice which may be useful ?
b. can you share the link from where you got a TWRP recovery which will work on the Elife ?
c. do you have any idea what exactly went wrong here ?
Any help you can provide will be appreciated because, it's my mausi's phone and I will have a very tough time explaining what really went down here.
Regards,

rr 7.1.2 without gapps/ recovery mode not possible

Hello xda developers this is my second thread sorry for the first one that i made yesterday, I am having a problem with my lenovo k4 note a7010a48
after rooting successfully I proceed to flash rr 7.1.2 but did not flash the gapps now my problem is how to go back on recovery mode to start over again
I already used the power button followed by the volume up down buttons but it is not working like before it is nougat. I only need to get to recovery mode. Please help and thankyou in advance. More power

Does u have root access now and which version of rr u flashed

Contact in telegram app 9032015333 I will tell u

I have the same issue. Can't enter into recovery and the phone is unable to start.

Same Issue || Don't Know How To Fix
Hi,
I am searching for a possible solution from a day. But could not find a working solution.
After successfully flashing RR-N-5.8.5 (Android N)
Unable to go into recovery.
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
1. When Press Vol Up + Vol Down + Power Up
2. Recovery is not loading up
3. Instead it goes in boot loop
4. Normal boot mode and fast boot mode are working perfectly fine
SOLUTIONS TRIED:
1. Flashing recovery again using fastboot mode
2. Flashing different recovery, i.e updated version of recovery
As all recoveries which were available were for marshmallow version. I am not sure but have doubt as android version is updated so the kernel so do recovery also become obsolete in this case ?
Any help is welcome and appreciated
Thanks

for fastboot mode and for recovery mode yes i tried it also but thats the problem no recovery mode. I will wait for the solution when it comes i will just store my phone for a while.

Hi Developers,
Is it possible to reset the phone at hardware level? I can't even connect the phone to PC as it keeps on rebooting.
Please note: upgraded to Nougat and wanted to do the second recovery as suggested by mohancm in the post. When the phone rebooted (before flashing the second recovery), the problem started.
Please let me know if any one has a fix/workaround for the issue.
Thanks,
Srihari

1.Download TWRP recovery unzip files.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1CKVcdcbHFPUzFCODVMN0ZfTW8/view
2.Now in folder TWRP\img\ there is the file recovery.img.
3.Download the second recovery for nougat recovery-Nougat.img and put in the TWRP\img folder.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298981920
4.Rename it as the original, recovery.img and replace it.
5.Then connect your phone to usb and select the 3th option from usb debugging message
"Transfer photos(ptp)"
6.run TWRP_Install.bat from TWRP folder
And you are done, had the same problem and I figure this solution, hope it will help.

I cannot locate the transfer photos(ptp)

ok I already done the part I am now on the recovery mode thanks. new problem of mine is after flashing the rom gapps and recovery after reboot it goes back to recovery mode did I miss something on flashing?

ok so i already passed this problem thanks for the help xda community thank you very much but I have this bootloop problem maybe I did a mistake flashing before rebooting sorry i am a noob in this kind of upgrade specially in mobile phones. I will be careful next time after I passed this problem I hope you will help me once again, my phone in bootloop is killing me.

I have same issue... I flashed gapps and my phone is working smoothly... The issue is i can't go into recovery mode... I tried some one tap reboot to recovery apps but all whats happening is phone restarting normally.

For those who can't access recovery mode. You were supposed to flash updated recovery image after flashing rrn rom.
Enter into fastboot mode by using adb shell.
Flash the updated recovery image
Now try rebooting into recovery.
Should work.
Worst case, restore by flashing stock rom using SP flash tools. And then start all over again.
If you face any issues ping me. Even I had faced this issue and fixed it after a lot of struggle. I can try to help you.

Or you could download Official Twrp App directly from play store, then find A3000 (Air Row) in 'select device' and flash that to recovery, (if your phone is rooted) then you are good to go, go to recovery mode and thats all, your twrp is now has been flashed.
Thank me later??

This really worked for me. Many thanks man.
Well it got me some time to find the right recovery image for my ROM so I decided to give you link for anyone going through the same.
My configuration at that time was: DotOS 1.2 and TWRP 3.1.1 (or so).
On the DotOS thread was enclosed link to wrong recovery image file (or its version was changed as of 28.12.2018) but after small investigation I found this file recovery-mohan-N.img.
Note: This recovery worked for TWRP and Android Nougat and I'm not an expert to suggest this will work for your case either.
Thank you again and have a nice time

mi9t loop to TWRP recovery after install MIUI 11

Hello
today I got an update for MIUI 11 by OTA, I press agree for "UPDATE", my phone restarted to TWRP, it's Installed some files for update, after finished that my phone keep restarting to TWRP recovery again (LOOP)
I tried to download official rom and install by TWRP ,but after finish and restart device still rebooting to TWRP recovery
is there any solution for not losing my data ?
BTW : flash stock rom didn't remove TWRP recovery , why ?
(I download rom from xiaomifirmware [dot] com)

I am not expert on that field but from my knowledge try booting twrp and copy all your files to your pc or laptop (the one you need at least for saving some photos or videos ) then flash a fastboot ROM
And as I said from my knowledge not sure there might be other ways

Your phone was on a custom ROM but you didn't know it? oO
No Official ROM will boot and auto-install in TWRP...
Try to clear "Dalvik/Cache" and if still not booting then you will need to "Format Data" in TWRP (loose data).
If still not working, flash a fastboot image...

Then if you can fully boot to twrp try to connect it with an otg or to pc and copy Ur files
It happened to me once btw I deleted the system partition(first time flashing) ? then I flashed the fastboot ROM
If I was in Ur place I would never flash any custom ROM to trigger the anti rollback or lose widevine l1
You may try but be careful of going through wrong things such as edl mode

I’m not using custom rom at all
BTW is there any way to delete twrp recovery without delete system ?

Did you by any chance flashed with the greek TWRP? I got the same bootloop so I get back to miui 10 official global version (the one I updated from) and it booted alright without wipe needed...
I'll try other TWRP versions as well though but right now I don't think I wanna update :|

Yup you should disable disable dm verity and verification
just flash this using fastboot and you're good to go, I am now running official miui 11 without wiping the data.
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
