Some Tips of Razr i:​
- when the phone is freezed or you are in a bootloop, you can force the device to power down, just push & hold Vol - and Vol+ and
power buttons at the same time for 10 seconds, the phone will be shut down
- for going to boot menu, first turn off the phone, then push & hold Vol buttons and power button at the same time
for about 10seconds, then you will enter to boot menu, now use Vol - button to scroll and Vol + to select an option.
- for going to Stock Recovery, you have to select "recovery" in boot menu, then you'll see a black screen with Android triangle in the middle, now you have to push Vol - + buttons at the same time to enter to recovery

Extra for newbies !!!
Maybe you can add official links of these tools...

Also, for Mac and Linux users there is sbf_flash: http://dl.opticaldelusion.org/sbf_flash?attredirects=0

Hi thanks for that - I have a Razr on its way to replace my Defy (running CM7 Maniac's version) - obviously I'll be wanting to root it, but wary of guarantee issues. I'm happy with the process of restoring a fastboot file - but can't see a T Mobile UK version on the link provided - has one been sourced yet? (I'm guessing that the Orange and T Mobile files are still different even though they are both now part of EE)

I've just ask a question in the specific section so sorry for posting again...
I have the message "Warning bootloader unlocked" on the phone after unlocking the bootloader and flashing cwm recovery.
With RSD lite we can go back to stock. This will erase the above message? Where can I find stock rom for flashing?
Thanks.

Can anyone describe using of Android kitchen for unpacking of zip with firmware?

(CLOSED)Root Your Huawei Honor 4C

Go to new thread wid Working new Root Method and CWM Recovery...
Here is new thread Honor 4C Root+CWM Recovery by @inshaalmirza
THIS THREAD IS CLOSED.....
Today i found a Rooting method of Honor 4C nd other Honor Series phones to Root them easily,,,
First of all, You should Unlock Bootloader so that on every reboot, Your Root shouldn't damage. You can unlock bootloader by simple procedure...
Just mail at [email protected] wid subject that unlock bootloader huawei honor 4c and in mail type all info..like imei, serial no. Product number nd model number...they will send you unlocking code....
you can unlock bootloader wid that code then and root permanently....
After receiving the unlock code, write down the code;
download the installer utility ADB and Fastboot and set (if you have them yet);
direct the cursor on the folder ADB, hold Shift and the right mouse button and choose "Open Command Window";
connect your phone to the PC in the "media device";
at the command prompt prescribe ADB Devices ;
then we write ADB reboot bootloader (the device will reboot mode fastboot);
then typed fastboot oem unlock **************** (where the asterisks replace unlock code);
write fastboot reboot and wait for the device to boot the system.
Now download below attached app named Kingroot...
Now install it in your huawei Honor 4C,,,
After this,, open kingroot nd press TRY ROOT, wait for sometime nd it will successfully root your Honor 4C,,, enjoy root apps easily now,,,
If It didnot succeed, then try any other version of KingRoot not kingoroot... It will do the JOB...
DISCLAIMER,,,
ROOTING may void your phone's warranty,,,use it at your own Risk...
If you found it working,,, just press Thanks button below,,,

I already have the unlock code from huawei. But how exactly can you do a nandroid backup with the default recovery?

Default recovery lacks the option of backup and restore...wait for any dev to port recovery for our device...or i will port after 1month,,,
@inshaalmirza

guys i have the unlock code now. How do I use it to unlock the bootloader?

Do we lose the ability to get OTA updates after we unlock the bootloader? This is the only reason I haven't unlocked my bootloader yet.

Untill yet,,,,i think rooting may not got ota updates,,,,we should unroot or install stock rom for ota,,,,
@inshaalmirza

You can google it about bootloader link wid OTA nd post here,,,,

Did you flash the new updated ROM from here:

What it says ??

What about battery backup of Honor 4c?
My cell's battery drops even in screen off with data connection and wifi off.
Drops almost 10% in night.

Not such issue.... Sometime faced but fine... 6h remain unused nd battery remains 100% today....

Bootlooped/bricked/returning to stock ...see the method here

You may be have got attracted to those new roms out there on the internet and would have probably bricked your device.Or maybe did some modding and in worst case somehow your phone bootlooped.
so please follow the guide for unbricking or solving bootloop issues:
CAUTION:
[1] FIRST OF ALL, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE.
[2] NEVER UNPLUG THE USB CABLE WHILE FLASHING IS IN PROGRESS.IT MIGHT PERMANENTLY BRICK UR DEVICE..
ONLY FOR ZENFONE 5,A501CG/00CG
download the required files:
[1] kitkat firmware: for zenfone5(a501cg/00cg only other zf5 users download appropriate firmware from asus support page): http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/A500CG/UL-ASUS_T00F-WW-2.21.40.44-user.zip
[2] adb/fastboot files: from here
[3] device drivers:if you do not have device drivers download and install pc link on pc from asus website,it will automatically install device drivers on your pc.(download from: http://liveupdate01.asus.com/pub/ASUS/LiveUpdate/Release/ZenFone/APP/LinkRim/PCLinkSetup.exe)
IF U R BRICKED PROCEED FROM STEP 2 ELSE FOR BOOTLOOP START FROM STEP 1:
step 1] try booting into recovery and perform a factory rest and wipe cache if this solves the bootloop(in most cases it should).if it still bootloops then follow the following tutorial
step 2]extract the fastboot files on the desktop and paste the firmware(it will be in .zip)in the fastboot folder
step 3]after copying the firmware also extract and copy the recovery.img and fastboot.img file from the firmware into the fastboot folder. (don't remove original firmware zip)
now your fastbootfolder should contain fastboot files+recovery.img+fastboot.img+firmware you dowloaded(compressed in .zip)
step4]boot into the fastboot by switching off the phone and powering it on by power+vol up key until asus logo comes up
if u r returning from some other rom u need to relock the bootloader so scroll some below to see how to relockbootloader.
step5]once you booted to fastboot ,open command promt in fastboot folder (downloaded earlier) by pressing right click+shift in any blank space on folder screen and selecting open command promt here.
in cmd write:
step6]
Code:
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
step7] fastboot reboot-bootloader
wait until reboot is complete then write
step8]
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
step9] now we will be erasing data and cache for a clean flashing
Code:
fastboot clear data
fastboot clear cache
both of them take time and screen may turn off to save power so don't panic
next use volume keys to navigate to recovery and select it using power key .once your phone boots up showing android with belly open symbol press and hold volume up+volume down until recovery menu appears.if that does not open recovery try this:
hold volume down button, click and release vol up button,,,then finally release vol down button.
i admit it brothers,,it is sometimes really difficult to boot into recovery...but keep trying,,it is a bit difficult but is fruitful
if it doesnt appears it may be due to unssucceful flashing, unplug usb cable,force switch off phone by holding power button for few seconds.now again boot in bootloader by power button and vol up key and repeat from :step[8]
once in recovery select apply update from adb
step10] write on cmd
Code:
adb sideload <downloaded firmware name>.zip
for convenience you can rename firmware to kk.zip or any thing you like so command will be adb sideload kk.zip(it may take 15 to 20 mins)
step 11]once thats done select wipe data and cache in recovery and at last select reboot from recovery menu(dont skip this else you may face freezing on welcome screen itself)
hopefully you will boot into homescreen and be patient first bootup may take upto 20 mins.
[UPDATE] HOW TO RELOCK BOOTLOADER{only for zenfone 5 other device users pls google the procedure}
(USE THIS ONLY IF U R RETURNING FROM ANY CUSTOM ROM ITS NOT NEEDED FOR BOOTLOOPING PROBLEM)
hi guys i know u will be needing to relock the bootloader while returning to stock rom..
so what u have do is use the following steps before flashing fastboot.img that is before STEP [5] mentioned above
[1] download this file (its a zip file extract it using password zenfone-five.blogspot.com)...(link=https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0o7qWuG7vvVRE9CV0hJWGRJS2c/view?usp=sharing)
[2]follow the on screen instructions
after the bootloader is locked carry on the steps from step[5]
PLEASE NOTE---THE UNLOCKING/LOCKING TOOL PROVIDED ABOVE IS NIETHER WRITTEN NOR OWNED BY ME...ALL CREDIT GOES TO ITS RESPECTIVE DEVELOPERS
this method can be used for:
1]unbricking
2]returning to stock rom
3]bootloop issues
IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO BOOT INTO FASTBOOT(maybe stuck on usb logo)--see this: http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=33800 it is written by asus guys and will help you
thanks
if you face any issue please ask in comments...........

[GUIDE][TOOL] Reboot to EDL mode from FASTBOOT! No More "Test Point Method"! [kenzo]

[GUIDE][TOOL] Reboot to EDL mode from FASTBOOT! No More "Test Point Method"! [kenzo]
Reboot to EDL mode from FASTBOOT!
No more Test Point Method needed ​
Technical Details:
Redmi Note 3 support rebooting to EDL in Android Bootloader aboot module (the "reboot-edl" command) but fastboot utility doesn't recognize "reboot-edl" in the command line and refuses to sent the command to the device. Since FastBoot command protocol is simple and text-based, it is enough to send a packet containing "reboot-edl" text over USB. The simplest way to do that is to patch Windows fastboot.exe file, replacing "reboot-bootloader" text with "reboot-edl". As "reboot-bootloader" string is found in the command line, fastboot.exe sends the same constant string to the device. So if "reboot-bootloader" is replaced with "reboot-edl", you can specify "reboot-edl" in the command line and the same text will be sent to the device.
New Update: Fastboot updated to latest version.
Tutorial:
1. Download the Fastboot_edl-v2.zip from Here.
2. Extract the zip in your desktop
3. Open the folder and double Click on Reboot.bat

}
4. Reboot your device to Fastboot Mode by pressing
Vol Down + Power button and connect your device with PC and Press Enter.
5. Your Device will be rebooted to EDL!
6. Now flash your Fastboot Rom with Mi Flash Tool to Unbrick your Mi Note 3. ​

Thanks to @emuzychenko for the Idea!

Thank you!

You can find it in the fastboot rom. Or if you have recovery rom, then go to the firmware-update folder in the zip there you will find it.

Maybe stupid question, but wouldn't phone go to edl mode (with red led flashing) before flashing rom and what then mbn file has to do? According to your manual it is the last step?

Is your device bricked or you want to flash an official miui rom? Since your rom looks like a distributor rom not an official rom.

No, my device is not bricked, it has locked bootloader. I received code from xiaomi to unlocked bootloader but it constantly stops at 50%, and I found out that it can't be unlocked without china dev rom, but no rom can be installed with locked bootloader I only want to flash an official miui rom to be able to receive updates...Xiaomi really made this too complicated....

Don't use this tool if your device is not bricked, your rom is a distributor rom that's why you cannot unlock your device, you have to flash miui rom prior to unlocking, you can do it thru edl mode using adb, search on miui forums and you'll find it.

If your device is not bricked, then you can reboot to EDL mode from adb. Do this to reboot to edl from adb:
1. Connect your device to PC.
2. Open adb and type: adb devices and press enter to see your device if it is connected properly.
3. When you can see your device ID, type: adb reboot edl and press enter. It will reboot your device to EDL mode.
4. Now flash your rom with Mi Flash.

This must be driver problem. Install MI PC suite and it will install all necessary drivers. Then try it again.

Do "fastboot erase boot" then "fastboot erase recovery" then "fastboot erase system". May I ask, why do you want it bricked?

Ahh !!! yoy flashed wrong file in wrong file system.....never do such stuff....as meizu's bootloader locked you can't do anything now....try to flash system.ing via adb

Is your phone rooted? If yes, a root permission request should pop up on your device, if not, you won't get any adb shell with root access. To flash via adb, boot into recovery and choose apply update from adb. To flash via fastboot, type adb reboot fastboot or adb reboot bootloader.
If I helped, hit "thanks" .

archive does not contain 'android-product.txt’
error: update packge has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt"

Can you upload these files somewhere? I might be able to script an updater-script for you to get you working.
