[Q] [Help] Bricked UMI ZERO

Hey people, can anyone get me a MTK droid backup of UMI ZERO? I need it to see if i can recover my bricked UMI
pleaaasseee.....
Also, it seems my scatter file backup from MTK does not have all t info?? and SP flashtools does not accept the ones included in the Ota-updates... so if anyone please can also get me a good scatter file ... i would be much apreciated.

Hello, you can get the rom including scatter file from Needrom! Just flash trough sp tool and you will be fine.
Sent from my UMI ZERO using XDA Free mobile app

I tried but SP tool does not accept the scatter from that file... but solved... as I connect it in META mode to the PC he booted again... Thx anyway

please tell mew how you did it . i am so upset that my phone is absoluteley dead

Hi there raducux,
Well, this was about another situation, but mixing with ROM's cooking I was able to brick it again it was mrsim who help me (mod at china-devices.com, credit where is due). But I will tell you how I did it.
You need to have the adb android drivers installed and flashtool v5.1 or up (the one I used, but some people use the 3.1 version).
Download this ROM from needrom (scatter file compatible with FT).
Link: http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Y800_UMI_20141104_1907xx-s7yler.zip or
http://www.needrom.com/download/umi-zero/
Extract, and in flashtools select the scatter file inside the directory you extracted. Press flash, and (after pressing flash) connect the phone to the USB port holding the volume down key (so the phone connects in META mode), and the process should begin.
If all works well after flashing the phone should boot the new ROM, its version 3.01 so you have to upgrade it.
If that does not work, tell me a few things... I suppose the phone does not start or appear the 'Zero' logo, but tell me if when you connect it to the computer you ear the normal plugin USB sound?
FlashTools (all versions)
http://helpadude.com/sp-flash-tools/
Universal ADB Driver
http://www.needrom.com/download/universal-adb-driver/
Tell me if it worked, or if you need more help tell me what happened and how the phone responds. lot of people here also that can help. My 1st thing I check when buying a new phone (for many years now), is if it's 'XDA' Supported...
cheers

You'll want to use ODIN to restore your phone to normal. Your computer will not recognized your phone as a USB storage device, but ODIN should be able to see it.
You'll need to find the correct ODIN files for your phone type (Tmobile, Verizon, etc and the ROM combo). If you just go to "http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5" you'll see different sections based on the service provider; the ODIN files will be in there somewhere.
Once you find the thread there will be accompanying instructions on what to do.

thank's for your reply .
I've experimented with many files ODIN. but any of them did not succeed !
and before this problem, No computer connects to mobile !
model phone : G-900F :crying:

download mode working? press all at the same time: vol down + menu + power button. then follow instruction (press vol up to confirm enter download mode).
once your phone on download mode then connect to PC. ODIN should recognize your phone n flash it. (i assume your PC has all driver installed and u have correct firmware for yr variant)

Don"t freak out.

Mohammed this thread is probably going to be closed. because again its not where it should be. so PM me if this isn't clear .
i wipe system every time i try a new ROM. so dont panic okay
whatever the issue with RECOVERY it doesn't matter if the odin mode or download is still reachable.
if u having trouble with PC recognizing odin mode on your phone. try to make sure u have both samsung usb and google usb drivers.
( NOTE: if it still doesnt recognized it try another usb cable. )

and if it does launch ODIN 3.09 . and make sure that u have the right firmware for g-900f in good state not corrupted.

Now you see that i searched and didnt find a solution.

Why you wanna use DOWNLOAD?
From 4.4 to 5.1 you want to use FIRMWARE UPGRADE with SP Flashtool.

If you want to update system from 4.4 to 5.1, you will use firmware upgrade option in SP Tool but need to put phone in DOWNLOAD MODE. This is done with many Android phone brands (LG, Samsung, ...).
Thank you for your response. I got download mode finally. I only need to connect usb without battery and then put battery in. Many tutorials said to put battery first and then connect usb.
Close it!

The single way my phone connects is if I keep volume down pressed longer. Even if it appears to be connected in SPFlash, still keep volume down pressed until the first FORMAT action in SP. Also, change the usb hub and the usb cable you are using. Sometimes it helps (in mine it did)

Meizu m2 note bricked.

I have meizu m2 note. Its now bricked. I was using sp flash tool to unlock the bootloader and install twrp recovery.
i was following the guide giving on youtube. I can't attach an outside link here.
So i did everything this guide said, but on the last step when i switched off my phone and connected to the usb port. The sp flash tool stopped working i waited for 5-10 mins. Finally it crashed. Now when i try to connect my phone it says usb device not recognised (the last device you connected to this computer malfunctioned). I cannot start my phone. I tried pressing the power button for 10 secs, tried pressing volume + with power button, nothing happens.
Anybody have any idea how to solve this.

Go to download old version Flyme os 4+ any but original rom you have must install,
And dow load any latest sp tool,
And also downlaod latest all mtk devices drivers,
If you have system knoledge you can install all of these pc softwares,
Test it once again your phone connecting to computer,
Just detected only nothing. Can do that its just detected your will be alive soon but its very easy if you know a little bit mobile knowledge,
Lets go to process
Step 1 check best and good branded usb connecting cable, test to connect usb cable to your phone,
Step 2 extract Flyme stock rom, and extract mtk sp tool,
Step 3 open sp tool showing error there is no any scatter. Or download file dont worry, da file availble at sptools folder you can go and select, and scatter. File availble at flyme stock rom folder lets check it then select firmware all formate and install that you have to select that option, then you select download and now connect your phone just leave ituntill done then your phone is will alive feel happy like me if you need any more information any other problem connect. To. Me

Maybe cable didn't work caused cable be used is for jbl.

First install Mediatek USB Drivers and then click on download button and after that connect your phone. And that should help you.

Assuming that your pc has already been installed with mediatek usb drivers,you have to click download first and then connect usb to mobile(must be in shutdown mode) by holding both volume buttons,then after at max 2 min downloading will be done. This process has worked fine with me...hope it helps...
