" x " appears on the screen

Malfunction " x " appears on the screen !! help me what is going on

Haha... you'll need more information than that if you want real help.
Based on the limited information though I suspect your phone is stuck in a bootloop. I'd hook it up to the PC via USB and check the logcat. Probably something screwed up.. Maybe time to restore your latest backup.

Did you flash any ROM if so, did you clean your Dalvic+REgular Cache

If you don't have an Recovery:
- Connect your Micro SD on PC
- Download and insert on SD the stock ROM of your Nexus One
- Power ON your Nexus with Volume Down Pressed.
- Autmotically Restore Nexus (You should say Yes xD)
At this time, you decide if you want to be root and install other ROM

you better just list your setup info before doing anything
locked/unlocked bootloader
rooted/unrooted
which recovery are you using
what rom are you running stock/custom
what were you doing when this happened
a couple safe things you can do in meantime is to pull battery and reinsert and power on
if it goes back to X, pull battery and DO NOT power on. Hold down the pwr button and trackball at same time and see if you can get into recovery
the third is hold down trackball/vol-/power at same time while X is on screen and see if you can get to recovery that way
if you can't get to recovery you will need to fastboot new recovery, assuming you are unlocked
once you get into recovery do a nandroid if you are rooted
and copy it to pc as a secondary backup
it is possible you may need to try the passimg method in wiki
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Nexus_One/Guides_&_Tutorials#Unroot_.2F_Restore_your_Nexus
also to do fastboot commands you need usb debugging selected on phone--hope it is

Hello, i have a similar problem with my n1
the phone starts and just shows the nexus X - (waited for 15 min. nothing happend)
i can go to the bootloader / fastboot menu with PWR + (Vol-) but i can not go to the recovery mode. -> the phone reboots and get stuck at the X
the phone is rooted
blackrose / hboot 7.35.5017
radio 5.12.00.08
recovery was ext4
i had a german ics miui rom installed and tryed to install the latest ics miui us rom after it didn't booted the miui us rom i turned the phone off and tryed a few hours later to turn it on to reflash the german ics miui rom.
1.)
i tryed to install a new recovery image ->
recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-passion &
recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1
(still get stuck at the X if i try to go to recovery mode)
2.)
i tryed this one with the passimg.zip but nothing happens if i put in the sd card :/
(with nothing i mean the green text show that the sd card is checking for PASSDIAG.zip and PASSIMG.zip but dosn't found it)
i also tryed:
3.)
erased boot
flash boot from passimg.zip (PASSIMG_Passion_Google_WWE_2.18.1700.1_FRG83_release_signed)
4.)
erased cache
erased userdata
started again with 1.)
5.)
got frustrated and erased system -.-
any ideas?

study it ,thank you
study it ,thank you

Hmm, sorry if its obvious but i have no idea what it could be or what i have to search to find the solution. Would be nice if you could give me a hint. Of course im not asking for a step by step solution. Thank you.
Send from my awesome SE K800i

not sure why you are flashing boot images
do you have a nandroid--copy your sdcard with the nandroid to pc--all of sdcard
are you flashing thru fastboot in command window
did you read my post above on getting to the fastboot screen--can you do that--the one with the 3 androids
pwr/vol-/trackball same time, may take 20-30 seconds
if you can get there, put your recovery image in your fastboot folder on pc, normally tools--assuming you have sdk installed, your phone must have usb debugging checked--I hope
open a command window and change directory to the tools folder or wherever the fastboot.exe file is. Something like:
cd/
cd/ android/android-sdk-windows/tools for me
then on same line type
fastboot devices (it should show your phone H#)
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (or the exact name of the recovery image, checked by right clicking on the img file in your tools folder and looking under properties)
I would use amonra you listed above and check the md5 if possible
hopefully the recovery will flash
if not you can go to the wiki link i posted above and try passimg metthod from there, use correct one. don't add the .zip. Windows will had it automatically.
a side note, DON"T flash different roms without wiping all including System 3 times before flashing--prevents a lot of problems

Secure Booting Error! Cause: Boot certification verify.

Hello there,
I updated my LG P700 to the v20c 4.1.2 JB version. After that, I couldn't find a wayu to root it, but found Framaroot app and succeeded with it. I got a little cocky how easy it was and downloaded ROM Manager. From it, I chose the CWM installation option and the window said it was a success. However, when I clicked to reboot into the recovery, only this little error appeared - "Secure Booting Error! Cause: Boot certification verify." in the left uper corner of the screen. Nothing worked, so I took out the battery and after turning the phone on, I noticed that all the internal memory got factory reseted or something like that and it is just a blank fresh android - all data was lost.
Long story short: flashing recovery from ROM Manager caused the wipe of the memory.
What happened?

[UPDATE] It could be caused by not unlocking the bootloader. I assumed that ROM Manager checks these things or flashes them with the recovery.
If that's the case (pls tell me) then I should unlock the bootloader. Maybe with this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2197429 Does it work with v20c 4.1.2 android on my LG L7?

yes, the bootloader is locked, you need to unlock

Thanks, now I'm at least on to something. Does the method from the link works on v20c 4.1.2. version?

I tried unlocking the bootloader with the Flash_Bootloader.bat file, but the error windows flashes only for a split second. I barely caught it and attached the screenshot of it saying "the system cannot find the path specified". What should I do now?
Phone connected in pc software mode, debuggin is on.
[Update] I moved the CWM folder directly to the local disk C and it worked, but didn't reboot the phone. I had to unplug it and then turn on. How to check if my bootloader is unlocked? I don't want any more fails with flashing the recovery ;/

you were needed to write adb reboot to rebbot your phone after, and the only way to chech the bootlaoder is to go on download mode or recovery

Everything is working, just rebooted into Recovery from the rom manager. By the way, how does this adb work? Do I have to run the .exe file after the .bin ?

1. First do you know what rom version you where on?, if you do know download that rom then extract from it the stock recovery using Huawei Update Extractor .
2. If there is two files of recovery just choose one, the one without any numbers. So you will have RECOVERY.img file.
3. Now make sure all files needed to recognize your phone are installed and adb is installed too. What you will need now is to push the RECOVERY.img file to the phone.
4. Connect the device to the computer and Put the RECOVERY.img file inside the folder where fastboot.exe is located. Then hold shift and right click to open CMD(command prompt) from there. Once CMD is open run the following code:
adb devices (This will show if your device is connected)
adb reboot bootloader (will reboot the device in bootloader mode)
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
5. After this take the rom which you extracted the recovery from and put it in the memory card (dload folder)
6. When phone is OFF hold (volume up + volume down+ power key) together until you see Huawei startup logo then release. The flash process of the rom should start.

Follow the instructions i stated earlier. Put the rom the dload folder( inside it Update.app) in sdcard and flash it by turning off the phone and then hold( volume up+volume down + power) at the same time to begin the flash process or read the pdf file that comes with the rom after you unzip it.

Try to flash the stock recovery like the way i mentioned. Turn off the device by holding the power until it powers off and remove any usb connections to the pc. Then hold volume down and connect the usb to the pc until you see fastboot mode come up. After that enter the code i gave to flash the stock recovery and then follow the rest of the instructions.

I got the recovery into my phone. But i cannot get in to fastboot again... The screen i took pic is popping up.....

To enter the fastboot mode disconnect the phone from the PC. Shut it down by holding power until it's off. Then hold volume down and connect the phone to the PC at the same time.

SOLVED!
Hi all i just bricked my phone : P9-lite VNS-L31
I managed to unlock bootloader, install twrp and get root permission. Phone worked great. Then i tried to flash xposed and the operation fails due to not enough memory space (!! i have 6gb) and get stuck in bootloop. I made all the possible things i knowed. Tried to use xposed-unistaller.zip (getting other errors like: "no such file o direcory") , wipe cache,dalvik and data and i try also to reflash stock recovery, and to relock bootloader (i can't do that.. why? i get FAILED <remote: command not allowed>) because erecovery and HiSuite can't restore my phone. What can i do?? It's a simple bootloop but i cant restore it. Please help me i have just bought the phone and now i'm very desperate.
I really hope some can help,
Thank you

so thanks for any help

So, i think i can help you to fix your phone.
First of all you need fastboot. So check fastboot drivers on your pc and make sure they work
Now download the stock firmware for VNS-L31 here : http://www.androidvillaz.com/2016/0...vns-l31-to-marshmallow-6.0-b100-firmware.html - It's the only version ready to download and an asian version but flashing only system you'll not notice it. All languages available, no differences at all.
Download and install this tool : http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3262545
So using something like 7zip extract the UPDATE.APP file in your desktop for example.
Launch HuaweiUpdateExtractor and select the update.app.
You need to extract SYSTEM.IMG so right click on it and select extract selected.
Now, turn your p9lite in fastboot mode (power off, press vol - and power) and connect it to your pc.
Now launch this : "fastboot flash system "PATH/system.img" " . Remember to replace "PATH/system.img" with the path of your extracted system.img file including the name of the file.
Wait about 3 minutes.
When flash finalize, boot in recovery. Wipe cache and dalvik and reboot your smartphone. It should boot now.
If not, perform a full wipe. (cache,dalvik and data).
Hope this can help.

Hi, if you don't know what is fastboot maybe you can approach it the easy way.
Download and install this for the correct drivers : http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html
Download and extract to a folder this : https://mega.nz/#!B4tATA5D!-TseQ9A-TPEQhzNQRXsT_cV2i4T7qYYLadceW0fM8k0
Put your phone in fastboot mode : Turn it off. Connect it to your pc . Long press vol - and power until it boots in fastboot mode (white screen with a green android and other stuff). If you want you can boot in fastboot from TWRP recovery : restart -> bootloader.
Copy your extracted SYSTEM.IMG in the root path of the tool (we can assume its name is system.img).
Now launch the tool and press 000 and enter.
If you have done all right now you can give this : fastboot flash system system.img
Wait about 3 minutes. Perform a cache and dalvik cache wipe. Boot your phone.

Hi,
I am using the standard P9, and getting the Boot Loop also.
I attempted your instructions, and appeared to work - I got the first EMUI initialization screen - and now its gone back to how it was.
Any suggestions?

I think it should work on every phone assuming you are using the right firmware. Do you use the right firmware for the huawei P9 ?? (needless to say it's not the version i posted)).
So if you flashed the right firmware (and i'm pretty sure of this) my advice is to perform a full wipe : Cache, dalvik and data.
If you are still facing the same error consider flashing other frimware parts like boot.img ecc.

I believe so - I am pretty clueless with this stuff.
By firmware, do you mean the stock version? Because I used P9-EVAL09-EVA-B136. Don't suppose you would know the right firmware I require?

I think it's the right version. I am a p9lite user so i don't know specifically the right version of the firmware but i think it's ok. Do you tried a full wipe?

How can I perform a full wipe? Thanks for replying by the way

So, do you have unlocked bootloader and custom recovery (TWRP) ?

Zeph1990 said:

I do yes

So, go in twrp recovery (turn off phone, long press vol up and power for at least 3 seconds). When you are in you will see 'WIPE' press it then do the swipe to Factory Reset. You will lost your installed apps and the relative settings but you will not lost your personal stuff such photo,music documents ecc. Let me know if you perform it and if it works =)

It appears that TWRP no longer appears. I get thr EMUI options to wipe data/factory reset. But once I do this I just get a red exclamation mark.
Does the phone need to be plugged in via USB?

Nokia 6.1 plus Stuck on TWRP Splash screen. PLEASE HELP!!

Hello everyone,
I have recently unlocked the bootloader on my Nokia 6.1 plus, and rooted it. I then went ahead and installed TWRP ( App install method - found in the twrp website ). However after I rebooted my phone has been stuck on the TWRP splash screen , I Tried going to download mode , and that just got me back to the twrp splash screen. I turned off the phone and powered it on again , same result . Whatever I do it just keeps going back to the TWRP splash screen .. What is even worse is that my device can not be recognized by my pc while stuck on the splash screen , thus I can not use ADB or Fastboot ...
I am feeling really hopeless and stuck , Help would be much appreciated!! Thanks

Now, dissemble the device and enter edl mode

You shouldn't have installed TWRP on a A/B device let alone install it via the app. It's okay, We're here to help.
If you have OSTLA in your PC, Just open it up and load all files and select to flash the stock ROM. Select Normal Download/Erase User Data options and if the option to Chech AP status is enabled, Disable it. Select on start or the option to flash stock ROM.
Power off your phone completely. If you can't, Then press the volume+ button and power button. Once the screen goes off, Immediately connect phone to PC.
Phone should now reboot into download mode and stock rom should start flashing. Then it's just a matter of waiting for it to flash and reboot.

I had a problem in that my device would never be recognized by my pc even when i finally manage to put in download mode, However after many days trying I was finally able to do it , and to use OSTL.... so thank you!!
I am wondering now how I will do the thing i wanted from the start which is to flash a kernel if i shouldn't use twrp?

So to my understanding what you want to achieve is flash a custom kernel on stock rom. And after you messed up your stock recovery by installing twrp, if you have flashed stock rom using ostla then follow these steps.
First without tampering anything finish an ongoing/pending ota/sp update cause after you install custom kernel you phone won't be able to install OTAs. The last sp is of june so install that.
Now coming to installing the kernel-
*Place your twrp and kernel zip file into your adb folder*
1. Setup usb debugging and connect your device normally to your pc, check if the device is communicating with pc type in "adb devices" and allow on your phone for authorisation.
It should reply with your serial on cmd window.
2. Type in "adb reboot bootloader" that should put your device in download mode.
3. Type in "fastboot boot twrp.img" (replace twrp.img with whatever your twrp image file name is)
4. Go to advanced and select adb sideload, swipe to start.
5. Now move to your cmd window and type in "adb sideload kernel.zip" (replace kernel.zip with whatever your kernel zip file name is)
Wait for the process to finish
Now press home go to wipe>advanced wipe select dalvik cache and swipe to wipe
again press home and select reboot, select system
Now final important step
6. don't swipe, select "do not install twrp"

This might sound like a stupid question but I am a major newbie when it comes to this,
Right now i managed to compile a custom kernel and I have a boot image along with the kernel, so to get the kernel.zip do I just zip up all these files? also I read that I could simply flash the image by rebooting to my bootloader and then using " fastboot flash boot boot.img " would this work , and if so does this mean i don't need twrp...
Thanks again for the help , it is much appreciated

If you just want to flash your custom kernel there's no need to flash a boot.img if you've a running rom installed. You can flash the kernel.zip it via twrp or adb sideload via twrp.
Sorry for the late reply, if you have a bootloader-unlocked 6.1 Plus you should join Nokia 6.1 Plus community on telegram you'll get much faster response from the community regarding your device ?
