Low Level Format and flashing ROM possible? - I messed up my Eten G500+

Hi,
is there a possibility to get my device back to work? I messed my G500+ up, with a wrong ROM Image, so is there a way to low level format it and replay a working Image on it?
The current status is:
The device can be turned on, but only the LED in the upper right corner is flashing
The blue outline will be present after holding the power key for several seconds (aproximately about 10-15 seconds or so)
The display stays black
I can't see if I would enter the USB downloader boot mode
I can't see if I do a hardreset
The display was fully white after flshing with this damage rom, then during boot it stayed white and the device stocked
Can anybody help me? Is my display damaged, can such thing happen while flashing or does the ROm don't kno w how to reach the display? What can I don, it's a bit urgent because I need that device!

As posted on your other thread, this is an HTC based device forum. You're better off looking for help on a site that will support your device. Good luck.

yeah, you're right, but there are several threads about Eten devices, so I thought, someone could help, sorry....

HELP - My Blade won't turn on suddenly, brick for no reason (?) maybe HW fault ?

Hi, I have my Blade for 2 months at the moment.
I had had CM7 ROM and few days (1 week) back I've switched to Ginger Stir Fry b19. I converted from GEN1 to GEN 2 and used Clockwork for Blade for flashing roms. I wiped all data / dalvik cache etc. I haven't installed any unusual apps.
Last night I turned off my Blade as usual and removed it from the charger - bettery full. This morning when I pressed the power button the Android picture showed up but the device wasn't booting, so I removed the battery, put it back and now the device wont power on at all. When I put the charger in, the LED won't light up, yet I'm not sure if it should when the device is turned off.
Any ideas ?
Could the device got bricked somehow ? Or could it be the HW fault ?

I had same problem!
You need to do tpt flash!
Method 3: TPT
TPT is a way of flashing part of the low-level firmware on your phone. After successfully flashing the files below you will regain access to clockworkmod. You need a different type of TPT depending on what variant of the Blade you have. If you have a China Unicom v880 or any other Chinese variant then you must not flash a TPT designed for European Blades, and vice versa. Be aware that flashing a modified or corrupt TPT can permanently brick your phone. Choose the appropriate file below.
European Gen1 TPT http://www.mediafire.com/?n6m49sircl5lnpl
Use this if your phone is a European GSM variant and if it is Gen1 or has been upgraded to Gen2 via TPT. This will flash stock Gen1 firmware.
European Gen2 TPT http://www.mediafire.com/?9civd2253kvct99
Use this if your phone is a European GSM variant and if it was sold as Gen2 or upgraded to stock Gen2 via windows. This will flash stock Gen2 firmware.
China Unicom v880 Gen2 TPT http://www.mediafire.com/?lr3gcew5pmc57ip
Use this if your phone is a China Unicom v880 (unsure, but may work on Chinese u880/x880). This will flash the stock Gen2 firmware taken from the B15 android 2.2.2 update.
Flashing a TPT
Download the applicable TPT file from above.
Unzip and put the “image” folder onto the root directory of your SD card.
Disconnect and reconnect your SD card and check the integrity of the TPT files. There is a file called "image.hash" in the image folder which contains all the files' md5 hashes in plain text. Make sure that the md5 of all the files match, or you may brick your phone.
Turn on your phone with the SD card inserted and with menu and volume up held.
The screen will either stay black or show green text (if you see the green android immediately then it didn't work), and will restart into clockworkmod when done. Wait at least 5 minutes for it to restart if you don’t see anything.
When it is finished (even if it didn't work), then remove the image directory from the SD card to prevent accidental flashing later on.
You can now flash a ROM using clockworkmod. If it doesn't work, then using a different SD card may help. If you have a European variant then it is safe to try both Gen1 and Gen2 TPTs separately in case you have made a mistake.

hope this help...

Thanks for the tip, however my blade doesn't seem to react to any key input.
Edit:
The phone is dead. I'll take it to Orange.
I don't understand why this happened at all though.

I had the same problem and nothing worked!
and I spent more than 3 hours with my Blade and I got it to work I de-bricked it!
If you do the same tpt then it works, screen maybe can be then black and then need to wait some seconds and it's done!

I was just leaving my home with it to Orange, ok I'll give it a few more shots! .
Edit:
It doesn't work. I'm using European Gen1 TPT. Nothing happens. I wait 10 minutes after pressing the buttons.

ZTE Blade - absolutely doesn't turn on
I have the exact same problem... my phone doesn't switch on at all - no red light on back button, screen doesn't turn on and no vibration on pressing the power button... Basically, the phone looks dead.
I was basically repartitioning my ROM to install ColdFusionX ics and this happened... I don't know what to do now... :-/
@manumanfred: I tried the tpt methot you suggested above, but to no avail... When I hold the volume up and menu buttons and power up the handset, the phone's supposed to vibrate atleast, right? It's not even doing that... .. Can u think of anything that might save my phone? Or is trashing the phone the only option.. :'(

Trashing the phone is never an option.. You should try flashing CWM through windows. I'll post link in some time.

Use the Fastboot method.

My blade has the same problem.
I guess only solution if keys don't work is to take it to be repaired...
But will they repair it at least? What was your experience?

If the phone won't even light up the red led on the back button when power is pressed it's a hardware issue.
Try it when it's connected to the charger (regular charger, not USB).
If you cannot get it to boot the bootloader you cannot run a TPT and if you cannot get into FTM mode you cannot use the Windows flasher.
In this scenario there is nothing you can do to fix it, you'll need to return it to your service center for repair.
Rooting your phone, TPT'ing or anything like that voids warranty (this actually includes official updates too) but you can at the very least try since it's unlikely they'll discover it.

ZTE blade total brick, help
I also have the same problem. I had flashed to android 4.1 a while ago, then decided to reflash stock ROM via TPT. TPT got to 98% when writing system then phone went dead. It cant turn on at all, no red led when on charger...no help so far on how to debrick it. Has anyone found a way to do it? PLEASE PLEASE HELP.

Hello guys,
I have a problem with my ZTE Blade 3, i've done all the above methods you've mentioned and i've also read mostly everything about the de-bricking from here www.modaco.com/topic/343587-guide-de-bricking-a-zte-blade , but i still have problem. Couple of weeks ago, i've put a custom rom made by KonstaT which i found also there http://www.modaco.com/topic/367241-devrom27-cyanogenmod-11-android-444/ and it was working normally with few exceptions (like apollo & camera, but when i inserted SD card + SIM they stopped making an issues)...but suddenly something happened i don't know what, it was a rainy day as i remember and the phone now isnt turning on. Actually it is turning on, but nothing is showing on the screen, that's why i read all the above...
What i believe i can do:
1. I'm turning my phone on and my red light LED indicator is blinking briefly
2. I can enter download mode (or i think is something like download mode...) and my red light is blinking faster and almost constantly
3. Sometimes my red light LED indicator is blinking unusual a way faster than the normal one (i think here is the catch...), then i decided to open my phone, i watch what i found --> check the images which i've attached That is my screen connector, which i think is fried and because i'm not sure, i am asking you guys for help, because i thought you might seen stuff like these and maybe you know more than me here. And if it fried, is there any chance that i can clean it with some kind of alcohol or similar which evaporates immediately and re-use it again, or i must buy a new one (LCD) ? :crying:
PS: I made the photos as closer as i can get to the damaged zone.

Is it possible you turned the screen brightness all the way down by mistake?

Just send it back. Too much hassle for a device you just purchased. Get a new one.

Before you send it back on, make sure it is completely stock.

If using the Nexus 7 Toolkit 2.0 to restore the stock firmware hasn't worked, all you can do is warenty Don't forget to be STOCK ! Otherwise no Warenty !

hey guys,
It is a probleme with the auto-blacklight, when in auto mod the device screen turn black until i put it under a powerful light their i can see the lock screen.
It was kind of magical when i figure that
I fix it by puting blacklight at 15%
I will send the N7 back at som point, i think waiting for better manufacturing units so maybe in one month or two.
Cheers guys and thanks for the help ( mainly the first post)

I'm glad it helped I always switch off auto brightness anyway to save battery, most android devices I see seem to be set way too bright by default.

Hey there,
i have exactly the same phone and Problem as the OP, so i tried to flash as you suggested.
I tried to put the Original Firmware on my device using the version from this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...huawei-p9-lite-firmware-compilations-t3517124
I just have to create the "dload" folder on my fat32 SD-Card and put the UPDATE.APP in it, right?
Well, i tried that and it still says "Your device is booting now...".
Is there anything i can try to get it working in any way again?
Thanks

Thanks, i did that
However, when i held down all buttons and connected the battery, the red lightning icon lights up, and the led on the top blinks red 3 times, then it turns off and does the same thing again ...
The battery should be charged arround 50%, its deffinetly not empty.

Also if you unlock your bootloader, you arent covered by warranty anyway.
Does anyone have an idea why i cant get to the 3 button flash thingy nor fastboot?

i was flashing DAVINCI_V11.0.2.0.QFJCNXM_f6f375d6c4_10.0 but it didn't boot it opens miui bootloader as if it's locked
then i tried flashing stock rom again davinci_global_images_V11.0.1.0.PFJMIXM_20191028.0000.00_9.0_global but laptop turns off due to low battery while flashing i tried to reboot the phone an then i got stuck on that black screen
anyone can help ?

Number one rule - charge battery and plug power supply before flashing. I think you have no option but to go to the repair shop - a special hardware must be used almost for sure as you damaged partitions
