Hi! I have a bricked ZTE Libra (Sapo A5 in Portugal) and no mather how much I search for solutions I only seem to make things worse, so I was hoping someone here could help me.
Things started to go wrong after flashing a CyanogenMod rom. Everything worked except two things: I couldn't use anything that required my SIM card (so no phone or messaging) and I could not access the recovery screen (clockworkmod).
Without the recovery screen, I turned to ROM Manager but since it uses clockworkmod to do its work it didn't help.
Then I started trying other ways to recover my phone, until I tried ADB which allowed me a shell in my android. But then I broke it all by doing "wipe system" which cleaned my system of everything that was still working and left me with an expensive brick.
Now all I can do is boot until I see the green droid. If I don't press the volume buttons it goes into "device" mode and I can see it listed under "adb devices" but have no idea what to do with it.
If I press the volume button down to go into recovery mode it keeps flashing but never really goes anywhere.
If I press it up to go into the bootloader it stays the same and the only thing I can use to tell me something is different than the normal mode is that lsusb reports the vendor as "Google Inc." instead of what it reports in normal mode: "ONDA Communication S.p.A.".
With this I'm not even sure if I can get to the bootloader or not, but even if that is the bootloader, I have no idea what to do with it that might help me recover my phone.
By the way, I'm trying all this on Linux, although I could try solutions in Windows if required.
Can anyone tell me what can I do in this situation?
Ok, maybe my first post wasn't that easy to answer, so I'll make a simpler question to see if someone can help me.
What can be done at my android's bootloader? What is it for and what tools do I need to use to do it?
You could try installing ClockworkMod recovery using wbaw's guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319257 Once that's installed you should be able to flash a new rom with it.
In bootloader mode you can flash a new kernel or recovery image using fastboot.
If you follow that guide that I wrote & Amphoras linked to then you should be able to get a working clockworkmod installed and then you can use that to flash a working rom, or restore a backup.
Thank you both, I'll try what you said as soon as I can and then I'll let you know if it worked!
Ladies and gentleman, today a miracle happened, my ZTE came back from the dead!
Apparently the problem was that I installed some GEN2 applications on my GEN1 model.
I found this while reading the tutorial you suggested, after which I upgraded my ZTE to GEN2 which allowed me to slowly recover everything else.
So, I have to say, thank you very much, and I hope I won't need your help again anytime soon! xD

stock ROM
I have never been able to find a stock ROM for Blu devices. I tried finding one for my Blu Studio 5.5s and Bluproducts Support says you must mail your phone to the repair center, that they will not supply ROMs for their phones. Sad situation.
Also it's too late to warn you but anytime you connect a USB device that is known to work, even a little bit, when WIndows says that something needs formatting, NEVER do it, it usually means that there is a problem communicating that Windows believes is an unformatted memory card. This is hardly ever the case.
I guess we are on our own with these Blu phones until either they either take off in popularity and we see more recovery tools or they quite making them and after we have bricked them all due to lack of recovery tools.
Blu Factory Default Recovery for BLU 5.0 2/ 5.5s
Hello BLU User of 5.0 2/ 5.5s
Okay the first thing I will say " DO NOT..... I REPEAT.... DO NOT USE ANY Version OF AIO FLASHER "
because the program is a real B.S flasher.... 1. it hangs like crazy
2. their is no progress bar/ status bar
3. the only real thing that works is backup
4. all partition on drive is NOT PROTECTED
Meaning all partition will be erased if you f-up
hit yes when you should have press NO..
now with all that said both phone are great 5.0 2/ 5.5s
I Already Brick the crap out of Blu 5.0 2, Now I have the Blu 5.5s
All I want to do is Drop CWM on it..... to no avail..
I Can tell you this....... I manage to f-up the stock default recovery
so now there is no default recovery for on a brand new phone
I got it rooted no prob... all of my backup come without default
recovery..
the Question is how can i recreate the default recovery partition
on main system memory card or would it be possible to create that
partition on my 64G SDCARD Via the Computer ?
Edit:
Fixed: Reflash Preloader / EMI from original ROM - Boot into Factory menu (Not Recovery) Turn off the phone.
Start SPFlashTool - Select Scatter.txt (Make sure its Scatter from the Original ROM) - Flash Original FULL Rom - Reflash Boot/Recovery/Pre Entire ROM -
Adb Install Update
Done!
---------------------------
I have managed to brick the Blu Studio X today using SPFlashTool.
EMI Obtain DRAM Fail.
This started when I replaced Factory recovery with CWM which turned out to be even worst than Factory. I got it Rooted without issue but in an effort to Flash back to Stock Recovery, I was unsuccessful.
The phone is detected by the PC now but I cannot do anything. The battery is integrated also.
What I need is the entire Blu Stock ROM including the Preloader. Without this, I cannot Unbrick it. Any help or ideas would be great.
Very urgent please, how do I get into bootloader (factory menu) without going through recovery? My D830u is in a Blu logo boot loop without recovery or anything. I need fastboot mode

Works on lenovo A3500 (A7-50 A3500)
Hello,
I post because I 've tried your process on my new tablet A7-50 (android 4.4.2 kitkat) and it worked fine, thanks you very much to Koli96 but the letter indicated on my tablet, it's not H or HV but L.
If someone else has the same it's cool for them, the process "http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-lenovo-a3500-h-t2879208/page2".
Hi !
I did that too for my A3500_FL and it works fine.
However there is a OTA upgrade and the CWM fails to execute it.
What to do, need i to restore Stock recovera (If YES, how to do it ?).

rooting Lenovo A3500H failure
Hi folks,
I followed the procedure but when clicking download in the Smart Phone Flash Tool it goes to "search" and never starts transferring. I have selected Recovery (recovery.img) as required, nothing else.
The tool was started as Administrator on my Windows 8.1 PC.
But i mention one thing: When pressing download a Warning pops up like:
"Not ALL Images are correctly loaded, which may cause boot up issue!
Do you still want to go on downloading anyway?"
As said above, when clicking YES it goes into "search" and nothing happens anymore.
Stop works fine, it does not hang up or such.
The Tablet is recognized on the PC as 3500-H and i can view the data.
I have Android 4.4.2 on the brand new Tablet. Nothing done to it so far.
Who has an idea what goes wrong??
TIA and have a good week.

I just bought an A7-50 A3500-F. Has anybody here been able to upgrade that specific model to Android KitKat 4.4? (I know it works for the A3500-H and A3500-HV, but am wondering about the A3500-F model.)

Hi,
I have been successfully running Android 4.4.2 rooted on my tablet Lenovo Yoga for a while (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59609647&postcount=178 ).
Yesterday unfortunately, the tablet is stuck on boot.
Turning it on, it displays LENOVO logo on the screen but then the logo stays there and nothing happens.
(I left the tablet on for more than 15mins, nothing, only LENOVO yoga always displayed on the screen).
Turning it off and connecting the usb cable, the tablet screen wakes immediately up and displays always (no animation!) the battery icon with the red lightning inside.
I can access recovery mode and wiped cache, then rebooted, still same problems.
Any help? What could the causes be?
Thanks a lot.
UPDATE: I tried a factory reset but I problably switched it off before it was completed (the screen was dark - not sure).
Now it boots, it shows LENOVO logo, then the android robot with ERASING... and after a few minutes it reboots and it's stucked in this loop (LENOVO logo -> android ERASING -> reboot)...
How can I fix it?
Can you get a copy of the original ROM and flash to the tablet,using something like this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118

Thanks for your useful answer!
I managed to download B8000_A422_000_085_140402_WW_WIFI rom but this is a folder (not a flashable zip file via sdcard) that has to be flashed via Smart Phone Flash Tool software.
I tried to use FlashTool, but FlashTool does not recognize my tablet (drivers should be OK) and therefore install the rom or do anything on the tablet
Do you know where to find a flashable zip rom for Lenovo 10 tablet so that I can try to flash it via sdcard?
Cheers.

Keep you posted
Thank you everybody, I managed to install 4.2 Android stock again, then update to 4.4.
A hint if someone will have my same same problem (pink lines but no yellow bar in the flash tool, so the flashing process did not start).
I solved it by pressing once shortly the power button on the tablet (then the yellow lines appeared and the flash process began and completed successfully!).

[/COLOR]Bumping an old thread rather than starting a new one, because this is exactly what my tablet started doing. I only use it for reading, so when it first started acting up I tossed it on the shelf and figured I'd fix it later. Now I want to read, and I find myself digging around in here. Apparently I'm to stupid to follow the directions for any type of flash involving my computer SP doesn't show me the scatter file I need in my firmware directory. I'd really love to just toss this onto a micro SD and flash it the old fashioned way! Barring that, some dummy proof instructions. I haven't flashed since my old S5, and this device is even older than that so I should be able to get this done. It's really annoying me that I can't. TIA for any help.
Unfortunately my Lenovo Yoga, after 4 years, died... :'(

Hello everyone.
I have a Blu Studio C HD s090q stuck on logo screen forever.
I have downloaded this room here http://www.mediafire.com/download/d9bdr1dbw4qk9ic/BLU_S090Q_V07_REPAIR.rar
and SP Flashtool v5.1428.00 and MTK USB drivers which I have installed and restarted computer after that.
Followed this tutorial here: http://www.blogtechtips.com/2015/03...phone-flash-tool-to-flash-any-blu-smartphone/
The thing is after I click "Download" button of SP flashtool and then connect my device (without battery as suggested on tutorial) and press vol up, nothing happens.
What should I do? Could somebody give me a little help? I have bought this phone just 3 weeks ago.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: I just figured out what was wrong after many and many tries and I would like to share in case somebody have a issue like mine.
First off, I had to download and installSP Flashtool ver 5.1628 and MKT USB Drivers and I also installed MT65xx Preloader Auto-Driver.
After I installed all these, I had to manually install "MediaTek DA USB VCOM (Android)" driver to my computer, then as I had bricked my phone by replacing KingRoot for SuperSU, while following previous tutorials, instead of choosing option "Format All + Download" (which wasn't working at all in my case), I picked the option called "Firmware update". Hit Download > while pressing vol + button, plugged usb cord / cable > SP Flashtool started downloading and I released vol+ button.
That's it! If somebody have any doubt, feel free to contact me.

Did you installed MTK drivers?
In some cases you have to install it manually to your computer.

There are several different BLU Studio C HD models. What is the MODEL NUMBER of your device? And what is the specific complete name of the ROM that you flashed?
Sounds like you flashed the wrong ROM.

You had a custom recovery on your phone? How exactly did you "download" the custom ROM to your device? You installed it from a zip using the custom recovery? Please explain.
Also what is the EXACT FILE NAME of the ROM you downloaded. Ron Genuine is not something I'm familiar with. Please answer the question I asked you. Without the exact file name, I cannot help you.

Hello Friend, I hope that even in these days I can respond. I have a problem with my Android ROM BLU Q S090Q / Android 6.0. I installed the ROM and everything perfect, I solved the Bricked of the phone using the MTK Droid Tools 2.5.3, the problem is that I could not rootearlo with any program (KingRoot, OneclicRoot, etc.) to be able to change the IMEI that I have it with another number and does not activate the Android's antenna. The Recovery of this Terminal is the original that brings the ROM that was installed, my question is: Will you install the TWRP you mention here and then load the SuperSU Binary 'to Rootearlo? What method can I use to robe my terminal? :silly:
I also read something on the Net about an Android ROM Nougat on BLU Studio G2 (Android 7.1.1 / CM14.1), is this true or is it a Fake?
Posd. I can not change the IMEI with the option "Engineer Mode" because in the terminal, the line inside the menu "CDS information" does not exist or is hidden, the other programs to activate it are NOT installed or blocked with an error message, I leave some captures to give you an idea.
