[FIX][LUMIA]Dead Phone,Bricked bootloader,infinite boot loop,Boot Failed etc. - Windows Phone 8 General

Hello all lumia owners ,with the release of windows phone internals there is a great rush to unlock bootloader and install custom rim.
In previous post I have posted about unlocking bootloader and enabling root access but what if you have bricked your lumia?
In That case Please read this thread and fix your lumia.
Lumia can be bricked by bad updating phone or disconnection in update or something else it might also be bricked by flashing custom Rom.
REQUIREMENTS
1.Windows Device Recovery Tool (WDRT)- Get it here
2.FFU image for your phone.(Larger than 1gb)(If you have custom rom then skip ffu image and jump to method 2) - check here
3.Drivers (Installed with WDRT)
Instruction
Method 1
1.Install WDRT and run it.
2.Dont Connect your phone, just click on I can''t find my device button.
3.Let it to Search for a Device.
4.Connect your device via USB cable.
4.Start Up your lumia by pressing power button.
5.If it is not starting,Struck on logo,or just a boot loop it can be read by WDRT.
6.WDRT will show device with unknown manufacturer, o's version etc.
7.Dont Flash software with it Just close it.
8.Go to http://www.lumiafirmware.com/info and read all instruction and follow it to manual flash flu file.
9.Wait Until all is done and reply if this fixed your lumia.
Method 2 (Easy)
If you didn bricked your device in flashing or unlocking bootloader then Its better to jump out method 1 as it is more easy for you.
Or if you have custom rom for your phone and not want to download full original ffu then stay here.
1. Install Windows device recovery tool.
2. Go to :
For 32bit window.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Care Suite\Windows Device Recovery Tool
For 64bit window.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Care Suite\Windows Device Recovery Tool
Or whatever install folder you selected.
3. Hold shift and right click on your mouse and click open command windows here.
4. Paste thor2 -mode uefiflash -ffufile " " in cmd and click enter.(This will start searching your phone)
4. Press And Hold Poweroff + Lower Volume Button (Dont release it if your phone turn on automatically)(Especially in Bootloop).
5. Connect your phone to PC ( of course using USB cable).
6. if it detect Your device it will take you to Flash Screen (Ignore errors as it appear becuase in ffu location we take " " and its completely normal.)
7. Run Windowsphone internals and now it will detect your phone in flash mode.
8. Now you can Flash Custom rom (if bootloader unlocked) or just flash stock ffu image (dont need unlocked bootloader.)
Done
I will try to find more and more method to fix brick lumia until then this method is best or just send device to service center if this didn't fixed.

Greetings;
the *.ffu file won't be found at: http://www.lumiafirmware.com/info (for most devices).
That's some misleading website info; copied to several tutorials.
Reference: "Tutorial: Unbrick Lumia Devices"
Considering your System drive is " C: "
Open: C:\Program Data\Microsoft\Packages\Products\RM-<Number>
* Where <Number> will be your device release model number.
Note: You can check Code & Release Model Number on the back of your phone by removing your battery.
Inside that folder you can see that you have some required files to recover your device from Bricked states.
i.e: the *.ffu file.

Hi,
My phone crashed during the bootloader unlock process. I think My hex codes were not in sync with the ffu.
Now my PC does not detect the phone enither does it vibrates or shows any activity on the screen.
When I tried the above methods, I get the following error message.

Is there any way I can create a temporary bus between the phone and that thor utility to send a bootloader handshake?

if it is possible to recover data from a damaged lumia, I do not want to lose data

Greetings; using Nokia firmware tool will reset your device to factory settings (on mine, reverts back to windows 8).

Hi all, i have a bricked lumia 1320 with samsung emmc. When i power it on, it says: unable to find boot options
This problem started when i downgraded from windows 10 mobile to lumia denim using WDRT. The flashing procedure went well and, at reboot, the error message appeared on screen.
i've tried with thor2, windows phone internals, WDRT to unbrick the device but i failed. Do you have other suggestions? I read that exists a way to restore the device using jtag or atf box but i don't want to buy a 100$ peripheral for a one-time procedure

I made a program that unbricks your device, recovers from QHSUSB_DLOAD, QHUSB_DLOAD.
It's called...
Windows Phone Unbrick Tool (WPUT)
It comes with an installer.
NOTE:
1. You should enter the license key that is provided in the License Agreement section (for checking that you are not a bot, so don't use autoinstaller!
2. You must download your emergency HEX and MBN files from lumiafirmware.com
3. You must specify the correct path to the HEX/MBN files otherwise the program will fail!
4. If the unbricking succeeds remove your battery from your device for 1 minute and put it back on
5. Charge the device for at least 30 minutes before turning it on!
6. Reflash your device with Windows Device Recovery Tool.
Download it here

OK, so what you need to do now is, to remove the battery of your phone and connect it to the computer.
As I am seeing the log of the program, it says that the device is not detected.
So try removing your battery, connect it to your computer, wait until the computer successfully installs the QH-USB Dloader driver.
Firstly, try repairing your phone by doing the following steps:
1. start CMD as administrator
2.type cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Care Suite\Windows Device Recovery Tool
or if your pc is 32 bit OS, then type C:\Program Files\Microsoft Care Suite\Windows Device Recovery Tool
3.now type the following thor2 -mode emergency -protocol sahara -hexfile edefile.ede -edfile edpfile.edp
4. do it for 5 times
5. disconnect the device
6. insert the battery
7. connect it to wall charger
8. wait 10 minutes, for it to charge
9. connect the device to PC
10. if the device shows the red flash screen, then you are good to go
11. if not, then remove the device from computer, disconnect the battery, reconnect the device to computer, launch WDRT
12. click My Device Is Not Detected
13. click LUMIA
14. if your device has been detected, it will be shown in WDRT (if not then retry the steps from 1 to 7 for several times)
15. click your device
16. wait until the device recovers from Emergency State
17. wait until your device reflashes
18. enjoy!
NOTE: All data is already lost and cannot be recovered as Windows Phones use secure erase, and no data recovery tool will be able to get the files back
SO FINGERS CROSSED TO ONEDRIVE BACKUP YOUR PHOTOS/VIDEOS and ELSE!

Hope it works

I have a Nokia Lumia 1020 completely unresponsive buttons and screen, except for the Windows LED logo that lights up briefly when I plug it in. It is running wp8.1 and it doesn't have a removable battery

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I honestly don't mind if it needs to be completely wiped. I mostly just use it for the camera.

Try leaving your phone charging for 1 day.
After that connect it to WDRT (Windows Device Recovery Tool)
And start reflashing the software.
NOTE: If the WDRT doesn't detect it, try holdin POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons for 15 secs, it will trigger a power-cycle.

Does anybody know how to use this thor2 command?

Device stuck on "Sony" screen FIX

There has been a lot of cases of this happening lately, so to save time here is the answer
So...
You have successfully soft-bricked your phone, and now are worried / wondering how to get out?
Easy
You will need a functioning computer with ADB drivers installed (flashtool has a driver installer you can use), and an internet connection
~~On Computer~~
First things first, you will need to Download FLASHTOOL - and you will also need to download the FIRMWARE for your phone (they are all the same - D5833/D5803)
Now upon opening flashtool it will say you need to move files from *flashtool/folder* to *.flashtool/folder* -- move the files and also move the .ftf (firmware file) to this new folder
Once completed that click the lightning bolt in flashtool and click the firmware you downloaded and click flash
~~On Device~~
Hold POWER + VOLUME buttons down until the device vibrates 3 times (It is now turned off)
While turned off hold the VOLUME DOWN button while plugging phone into the computer (should see the LED turn red - green/blue then off)
Flashtool will now say device is connected in flashmode and will flash the firmware
DONE
note for windows 8 + users
adb drivers do not always work with win8 and above, please follow these steps to get adb to work

Or, you can do this:
run cmd.exe as Administrator (right click -> Run as administrator)
type this command:
Code:
bcdedit /set testsigning on
reboot
install drivers. Agree to installing unsigned drivers when you see the pop-up. Drivers should be correctly installed now.
run cmd.exe as Administrator (right click -> Run as administrator)
type this command:
Code:
bcdedit /set testsigning off
reboot
That's all.

I learnt pretty early to have a backup file, saved in multiple locations with all the tools needed to recover from the soft brick. Shat myself first time it happened, phone was only a few weeks old.

Only put this tutorial up because some people might not have flashtool / know how to use it
or do not know how to get the firmware files

Thank you!
For Windows, maybe it would be nice to mention that it's not gonna work (by default) in Windows 8, 8.1 and 10, so Windows 7 is recommended for this.
There is, however, a way (actually, there are 2, but I found one of them to be easier than the other) to get those drivers installed on Windows 8 and above.
You can find it here.

Thank you thank you thank you!!! I almost cried
Stupid me... After installing locked dual recorver, i wiped the system and switched the phone off... It game me a warning sign saying there was no OS, and I said yup, no worries (thought it was like PCs where boot OS has nothing to do with Android).
Phone got stuck on the Sony logo and the only way to do anything was to use the hard reset button!! YOU SAVED ME!
Bump
Many people still get themselves stuck in this issue :3

[guide] repair hard bricked devices with deleted bootloader (sboot)

I'm writing this in android development section because this is only section for both models, i hope this is not a problem.
Also i want to say thanks to sataccount from gsmhosting, he found working map at the end.
This guide is for hard bricked phones, where bootloader is destroyed and there is no any tools which recognize phone.
When you connect phones without bootloader Windows detects them as exynos7420 in other devices in device manager.
All this is achieved using trial/error method and I still don't know real sboot map and where is what in sboot.bin.
What i found till now is that sboot consist from this parts:
1. fwbl1 bl1
2. bl2 bl2
3. el3_mon el3
4. bootloader bootloader
5. tzsw tzsw
I repaired my g925a and have files only for this model, but i will try to explain how to prepair files for any other model.
We have to use same version of bootloader which was previosly in phone, or if you are unsure use latest sboot.bin.
Download tools: http://www.mediafire.com/file/sg5m2ti3k6a63z5/USB_Down_Load_32bit.zip
In folder USB_DownLoad_Tool there is a folder Disk1
Connect phone and hold power button.
Windows will detect exynos7420 device, install Driver:
click manually,
com and lpt ports,
have disk,
point to data1 folder.
Don't run setup from Data1 folder!!!
Now we have to copy
WinDNWApi.dll
WinDNWApi.lib
in:
c:\Program Files\SAMSUNG\Exynos USB Driver\Drivers\
Probably there is no this folder, just create it and copy 2 files.
Don't copy WinDNWApi.dat as it is written in original manual, this file is for older exynos chip and procedure will not work, everything works without this file (it only has maps for 5250 and some other cpu)
Now we have to create boot files.
Download sboot.bin for your device, as i wrote best to find same bootloader which was in device before brick.
In some hex editor create 4 files (i'm using frhed, just click copy, enter offset, new file, paste, save and over again for all four files) with this map (again thanks to sataccount):
Novi1.bin 0..0x1FFF (size 0x2000 or 8192 )
Novi_2.bin 0x2000..0x31FFF (size 0x30000 or 196608)
Novi_3.bin 0x32000..0x3dfff (size 0xC000 or 49152)
Novi4.bin 0x3E000..10EFFF (size 0xD1000 or 856064)
This is all without tzsw. If phone still does not enter to odin mod, make last file from 0x3E000 to the end of the file (18F10F) and try again.
Start multiuploader.exe
Connect phone and hold power button.
Browse and find SH-usb-booting.cfg (in attached file proba folder, that is where you will probably prepare all boot files)
click start and phone will enter odin mode.
Start odin and flash sboot and everything else.
First of all thanx this is a real sharing is caring thing.I'm seeing a way to downgrade bootloader here as tzsw gets separated well this can be done by daring dev who can take risks.
I'm not sure about downgrading.
When i tried to repair my phone, first i tried with 5.1 sboot (eng and normal). It hangs on second file. It checks somethings before start to load real bootloader. Maybe to fill whole device with zeros with dd command (deleting pit can be enough, but also maybe it ignores PIT and read some specific bytes on sda) and then restoring phone as it is just builded in factory. Of course first to make backup of EFS etc...
Even with downgraded sboot, i'm not sure can we use 6.0 and 7.0 roms?
Best way is someone with IDA knowledge to find bytes for unlocking and we can write them to sboot with dd if="something" of =/dev/sdb bs=xx count=xy
At least it is now repairable if it is bricked after that
Good find, thanks.
How did you break the bootloader (sboot) anyway?
Dd if=sboot_from_925f of=/dev/block/sdb
I had engineering boot (kernel) with adb root access. And after that phone is dead.
On 925a sboot is on sdb (just sdb without numbers), cm.bin on sdc. Probably same on all variants.
Hi
I'm not sure I understood the hex files creation step.
Start byte : 0
End byte : 0x1FFF
Size : 8192 for Novi1.bin for example
Right ?
Yes, that's it
Just compare with my files if unsure.
OK Thanks
Congrats for this amazing guide
G928c dont know version inside.
I tried 7.0 but tool hang after novi1 transfer.
with android 6 sboot all 4 files transfer succeed but no download mode
if I do 0x3E000 to the end of the file, tool hang after 1st file.
according to customer 7.0 was inside before brick.
ok I tried different 7.0 which take me to on display usb recovery mode.
but phone not detected by pc after reset by keys now phone completely dead.
no exynos mode, no download mode nothing.
PC not sensing phone anymore.
Did you restore exynos mode?
Try to add tzsw ( novi4 should be from 0x3E000 to the end of sboot.bin).
yes I open phone and re-insert battery. Now exynos mode.
(novi4 should be from 0x3E000 to the end of sboot.bin) give me USB Recovery Mode. but as previous post no detection.
do sboot contain tzsw ?
if so what is address for tzsw ?
tzsw is from 10F000 to the end of file. But you added it and phone loaded when you made novi4 from 0x3E000 to the end of sboot.bin.
I think it is still problem with different sboot version, it must be same as version previously in phone. Try few more sboot bin.
You don't have to pull out battery, just press volume down and power for more then 20 seconds, it is same like you reinsert battery.
I reconfirmed version form client and he said he is sure about 7.0 version.
this variant have only 3 files of 7.0 and I tried all sboot from 3 available versions.

yes this is the way but in my condition not reset after 30sec and I feel phone heat too. thats why I decide to open phone.
Phone enter download mode and pc does not detect it, it is really strange, like it hangs after entering mode. Maybe is phone (flash memory) broken?
try with jig cable, maybe this can help, it is only idea i have...

I also think this can be memory issue.

anyways thanks for this guide and your quick response.
:good:
I dd over sdb, BOTA0 BOTA1 RECOVERY CACHE and SYSTEM, am i sol on this one? Phone doesnt get detected by pc. Even tried unplugging the battery. For those curious why...I found out theres a partiton flag set on all of those partitions. Its SYSMAGIC X , X being a number. Lowering that number on the system by dd' ing sda18 and rebooting, results in a fw error, binary 3 device 4. Aka phone thinks system installed is lower then what it really is. I know u cant downgrade the bootloader using your method, but if u dump sdb, and edit the sysmagic line in a hex editor, dd it back. It will now be corrupt, I wonder if you can now downgrade to the version we faked. Anyone care to give it a trytry?

@ feherneoh thanks...
This problem is strange
Because my phone never dropped and used the method in two lumias 520 but show me the same Error
Was running the OS the build windows 10 mobile 10586 insider
The battery was discharged and never turned on
feherneoh:
When I connect the phone to the computer
I quickly see a green color icons connected
QHSUSB DLOAD toolkit conectivity emergency
I use windows 10 But i don't know if the are the corrects drivers to windows 10
I'm at work now
I do not remember very well but my phone is recognized immediately when connecting to the pc
feherneoh said:
In this case the reason for immediately going into emergency mode is probably that the bootrom of the SoC cannot read the eMMC. You cannot do anything without some professional tools and luck.

Fight for a week with this phone
And with your answer I will not fight any more
The strange thing is that I try with

Please close this topic...
Ive bricked my nokia lumia 520 while trying to unlock the bootloader:
the way i did it was
Going into C:/Program Files/Microsoft Care Suite/Windows Phone Recovery Tool
and generating GPT0.bin (this file is very important)
You can generate your GPT0.bin file by inserting
Thor2 -mode ffureader C:/example directory/myfile.ffu -dump_gpt C:/example directory
and getting the right .hex file corresponding to the RKH (root key hash) you can get your RKH by booting into flash mode, opening windows phone internals,going to the info tab and finding the really long string of letters and numbers because thats your RKH
Then going into the MPRG_HEX.zip (you can find it with a quick google search)
Rename the correct hex file with your RKH to hex.hex
Then going back into command prompt and inserting
thor2 -mode emergency -hexfile C:/example/hex.hex -mbnfile C:/example/GPT0.bin -orig_gpt
Then it should take a few seconds
DO NOT REMOVE PHONE UNTIL TOLD TO!!!!!!
Then remove phone, take out the battery, insert battery and turn on the phone, you should hear a vibration and it should boot into nokia flash mode and you can go ahead and flash the ffu by:
Thor2 -mode uefiflash -ffu C:/example/flashy.ffu
Replace the example directory with your real directory
Wait 20 minutes and your phone should be fully operational
You just revived your lumia from death!

Bricked 950XL

Hi,
It seem my 950 is dead brick, when I plug it vibrate, then nothing. No light on sceen, no logo. At least windows seem to recognize an unknow device.
To get it back, I tried to follow the tutorial on lumiafirmware website.
Code:
thor2 -mode uefiflash -ffufile "C:\Users\sylva\Downloads\RM1116_1078.0053.10586.13169.12732.034E13_retail_prod_signed.ffu" -do_full_nvi_update -do_factory_reset

I tried this too: xdabloger.blogspot.com/2016/04/finally-unbrick-your-lumia-device_28.html
The app told me it was downloading the urgency files, then «Operation failure» message, I guess it doesn't manage to connect to the phone.
I had a look here too forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/tutorial-how-to-rescue-lumia-emergency-t3434825 , but I didn't find the hex file I need…
Any magic solution ?
First you should have a look at your device manager: is there an USB Device as Nokia Emergency or Qualcomm USB or Comm Port? Assign to this device the Nokia Emergency driver which came with WDRT.
Download the Emergency files from LumiaFirmware, if not already done.
Modify this command line according to your needs:
thor2 -mode emergency -hexfile "MPRG8992_fh.ede" -edfile "RM1104_fh.edp" -ffufile "RM1104_1078.0053.10586.13169.13756.034EE9_retail_prod_signed.ffu"
For me, it worked as charm on my Lumia 950 XL.
Thanks for your answer, sadly in the device panel I only have an unknow one regarding the phone … :crying:
I suggest to change USB cable and USB port. I think as there is an unknown USB device it can't be recognized properly. Also you might append a screenshot of your device manager, especially the Details tab of the properties window. Normally. a Lumia 950 XL is "unkaputtbar", but I've also a device, which is not even recognized as an unknown device. You may also PM me, if you have a different preferred language... For me. FR, IT, HU also work... ES not really, I can read it.
I noticed that the post is on 2019 I thought it's new, sorry about that... any way the steps might be helpful for others.
I faced this problem exactly, I accidentally disconnect the cable while it was flashing and the mobile got dead as your situation.
The possible solution which saved me is this:
Create folder name it "Products"
Create folder name it "RM-1116"
Copy all your flash files into "RM-1116" if you don't have everything go to lumiafirmware.com and download all the files related to your device
Move the folder "Products" Into somewhere you can access it later
Now open Windows Devices Recovery Tool
In the dots at right-bottom click and choose "Settings"
Go to "Packages"
Active "Use Custom Package path"
Click "Browser" then choose the root folder that you copied "Products" folder into... (select the root folder not the "Products" folder)
i.e. Choose "D:\Custom Packages" -> "Custom Packages contains "Products"
Now Connect you mobile to the computer
wait a little after turn on
Choose "My Device was not detected"
Choose "Lumia"
Once you mobile connected probably you will see it listed
Click on it and recover the system
This should work hopefully.

Done. Lumia must be in fastboot mode to do this (tap power and volume down for 10 sec and release to run fastboot mode till phone vibrate).
But after LK flashing only Android Kernel Works, TWRP wont install with adb commands, no android partitions on internal memory, can`t create partitions from adb commands.
I can boot twrp but can`t wipe partition too. TWRP says that internal memory have 0 MB. What to do? Any suggestions? Recovery to WIndows Phone from WIn32Imager don`t work. Only MinOS and Data partitions are accesible.
Done.
I did restore WP8 from WIn32Image backup once again with success using those instruction:
Restore Windows Phone 8 if you have Android installed (Windows instructions)
Thanks to @feherneoh who posted the content of this thread originally here:Post #1 Post #2 NOTE: DO NOT ask for a backup. If you do not have one, you have to accept to be permanently on Android like me. Create a folder somewhere that we can...
forum.xda-developers.com
Something went wrong as in this manual - linux partitions are not set up!!! ->
Second try... ALL OK. Instructio is ok.

Second time, no fastboot mode is needed.
Did you manage to fix the 0 mb issue?
