After internal storage wipe in TWRP, phone doesnt get recognised in fastboot. Cant do anything to it. After wipe, i couldnt copy ROM to it so i rebooted the phone. Now fastboot wont recognise it and im stuck with it bricked. What should i do? I cant even boot to recovery, because every time it just shows mi.com logo.
Problem solved, thread closed at OPs request

Bottom half of the screen is cracked which makes it very difficult to " swipe to" do anything in TWRP. I locked my device and was unable to unlock with backup pin because the keyboard does not function properly. So I rebooted into recovery and accidentally wiped Calvin Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage and Cache. Rebooted phone and it's stuck in a boot loop. I tried using adb but I could not get it to swipe into adb sideload. I found that connecting the phone to my PC does open up /SDCARD/TWRP but there are no other folders in /SDCARD. I moved a ROM from my PC to the TWRP folder and was able to flash it but got stuck in boot loop. Tried flashing a different ROM and it shows a new loading screen but still stuck in boot loop. No other folders are being created to SDCARD.. Haven't had this pphone for more than a week.... Was thinking I could maybe flash a non touch TWRP or CWM to avoid having to swipe to get things done and use the hardware keys.. but why is it being stuck in boot loop after it says it successfully flashed the ROM.
I did flash the 30b file it says to flash prior to flashing the 2 custom lollipop ROMs in the tmo dev forum. Any help, links, advise would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Heeelp
I tried to install Cataclysm ROM, and then it went into some sort of installer, after that I tried to reboot, but TWRP said it didn't have any OS?? So i tried to boot it up anyway? but nothing, just stucked on Google Logo. After that I tried to boot into TRWP agian. But then TWRP says "Mount Decrypt Data" and then i have to enter a password?? but i removed my pattern lock before flashing. Because i made a Nandroid and i read i had to remove the password before making a backup. But then i just press cancel. Then it says " Unmodified System Partition" "Swipe to Allow Modifications" and i do that. Now i have nothing on my SD card?? Then i thought i could flash stock through Fastboot/ADB, but now it won't see my device in ADB? I have updated my drivers, both by Google and Intel (Read they helped someone else) But nothing? so i cant retutn to stock and can't boot up.
Please help, highly appreciated
Some how i got i to reboot by an ADB command and then i could flash factory imgs and return to stock.
That very same thing happened to me the 1st time I tried to install Cataclysm. Somehow my SD card got wiped.
I had to start from scratch with the factory image.
I don't know what happened but I have since successfully installed Cataclysm.
flashed trwp 3.2.3-2 from odin 3.13.3, s8 is now in boot loop at "powered by android"
was flashing trwp to then flash lineage 16 rom
s8 aus phone stock.
trwp flashed successfully via odin.
rebooted into recovery, saw the weirdness regarding the 0mb mount points.
not sure what my options are from here?
i can boot to recovery but cant mount the internal storage , all disks appear as (0mb)
can also boot to download, but not going to do anything else first, before getting some advice.
thanks
Fixed.
data was not mountable due to it being encrypted.
As this was the firt time the phone had beeb flashed, I needed to wipe and reformat /data.
Once that was done, I was able to copy the img + gapps to the phone via PC, then flash as per normal.
Phone is operational and loving it!
Resolved.
Hi,
I have been using my P Smart (FIG-LX1) for a while with LineageOS 16 and decided to move on to Android 10. Installed LineageOS 17.1 (found it on this forum) and pph-Magisk 20.3 for root - it did work, but the system was unstable so i decided to try AOSP 10.0 instead. I entered TWRP, wiped cache,dalvik,system and data, flashed the ROM, gapps etc. It was advised to now flash stock recovery and use it to do a factory reset - and now i'm stuck here.
After flashing the recovery_ramdisk img the phone stopped being able to enter any recovery at all. The system itself does not boot (stuck on the "Your device has been unlocked (...) Your device is booting now..." screen forever), the recovery never appears (previously in the start screen with 'unlocked device' warning it used to suggest pressing volume UP to enter recovery, now it only shows "Your device is booting now"). As i can still access fastboot, I tried flashing TWRP again - the TWRP splash screen does appear, but the phone gets stuck on it. Also tried flashing another system's img - nothing changed.
Is there anything I can do or did i just brick it completely?
Thanks for help!
SOLVED:
Apparently running fastboot erase on system and userdata partitions made me able to boot into recovery/erecovery again. I do have another problem now, but it's not connected with this one so I will create another thread for that.
Could you try help me? I can't even get ADB to work anymore
steps i did:
installed twrp twrp-3.4.0-1-markw
flashed lineage-17.1-20200920-UNOFFICIAL-markw by shiabzzz
wiped data and cache, excluding internal storage
tried to flash gaps but failed due to error 20
flashed magisk
reboot.
now im stuck on bootloop. i know i should have deleted data before flashing the rom, not afterwards. when i press power+up it's not going to recovery.
how can i fix it?
are gaps mandatory for it to boot?
will my phone turn off when it runs out of battery, will i be able to go to recovery then?
update: i can access fastboot mode, but when connecting to pc and trying to boot to recovery it says "waiting for device".
