I had this phone bricked for almost 1-2 months, now I wanted to see if I can get it back to work, I'll list here the extensive list of thing that I tryed before finding this weird problem:
All I remember from 2 months ago is that I had the pre-rooted rom 21.40.1220.1998, had a no signal problem, tried rebooting the phone and it started bootlooping, bootloader was already unlocked when this happened.
I tryed varius flashes from stock recovery, TWRP, even tried installing lineage, but I don't recall the exact steps that I tried at that time. I'm sure that were a lot.
Now, today, booted phone, it started on fastboot mode, tried booting recovery, no way. Flashed stock recovery package found on internet, got stock recovery back.
Then I started doing as follows:
Flashing the oldest stock rom package I had, installation stuck on opening update package for 1 hour, removed battery from the device
tried downloading the package same as the one maked on the first line of the recovery screen, flashed without errors, rebooted: bootloop.
tried flashing a more recent recovery and boot img from fast boot, making sure to do a fastboot erase of both partitions before. recovery doesn't start.
Tried installing TWRP recovery, and rebooting, no way, phone boots on fastboot.
done a "fastboot boot twrprecovery.img" to wipe from there the partitions. Got a mount error for each partition.
I went to the partition repair screen for system, and then I noticed the partition size was 0MB. WTF!
Checked all other partitions, all 0MB size, 0MB used, 0MB free. except for the cahce one, it is 27MB and empty.
Now, I'm pretty sure I need to repartion theese partions, but I don't know the original size. Someone here does have the partion size for system and data (and I gues also recovery?)?
There is any other way to fix this problem and get the phone back to work? I literally spend all the day trying every solution I found on internet.
motherboard is faulty

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.
I have the MetroPCS xt1765 running lineageos 14.1. When unlocking and doing all that jazz, the guide said that you can't flash twrp, only boot it. But I got annoyed that /data wouldn't mount so I just tried to flash it anyway and it worked. On cmd it said that the file wasn't signed or corrupt, but it still wrote to the device. I thought nothing about it at first but when I tried to boot the device it automatically when into twrp. I tried to reboot to system again, and the same thing happened.
Eventually /data successfully mounted and I was able to format it and install linage. I hoped that would fix the problem but it's still there. I believe I would need the stock boot image and probably stock recovery as well. I hope someone out there has these files.
Also when booting with factory mode, my data isn't working at all. The apn setting are right and all, but it's not working.

When it was booting to twrp only, you just select reboot bootloader and in bootloader select start and you will get system. This twrp doesn't read and clear bootloader control block (BCB) properly which causes this. There is a fix. I'll find the link.
Do you mean fastboot/bootloader mode? If yes, try this
Hi all,
I'm trying to back stock up I have booted to twrp 3.2.1.1 with encryption supported and that always hangs at "updating partition details" and after reading and reading it's the twrp that's at fault.
So I wiped the phone again from within settings and then try to boot official twrp 3.2.1. and It just hangs on the splash screen.
So I thought it's not fully wiped, no problems so tried to format in fastboot.
"Fastboot format userdata"
but this gives me
"formatting is not supported for filesystem with type raw"
So now I'm stuck on what to try next.
Right I wiped in stock recovery and got twrp official to start a backup but again it's hanging on updating partition details.
Looks like just I have this problem?

It doesn't mention backing it up, and that's when my problem of it hanging starts.
I've booted to twrp many times and always hangs on "updating partition details."
Only thing I haven't done is actually reboot twrp by tapping reboot recovery in twrp.
Would that make the difference before I wipe it yet again?
Yesterday I tried to get rid of the ugly green UI on the TicWatch E following https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/ticwatch-e-chinese-version-ticwear-t3781183 . It worked, and my watch looked beautiful. But Bluetooth didn't work correctly. This wasn't a new issue, as the very first day I got the watch, I had the same issue. I tried to reboot, and many other solutions but had to reset like the first time. This time, it booted into TWRP as I had rooted my watch. I proceeded as normal, wiping the user data partition and cache, and rebooting. This time, the watch didn't reboot but went into TWRP instantly. I tried to reboot a couple of times, but ended up in TWRP every time. So I decide to do the most idiotic thing: try to reset again. This time, the watch simply shut off and dint respond to pressing the button. No sound, no vibration, nothing. Thankfully, it showed up in Mediatek flashing tool, so I followed https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/ticwatch-e-chinese-version-ticwear-t3781183 and got it to boot up. I messed up in flashing the userdata.img as well, but I doubt itll have any consequences as I then erased that partition using fast boot. Now, it has been showing the weird circle-throwing-ball animation for the last 4 hours.
For anyone finding this thread, this 7z worked for me

To explain more, that previous link was for android 5. It got the watch up and booting again. I found an Android 7 ROM on XDA, spliced in the img files and that booted too. Managed to get into TWRP and load my backups. Rerooted and enabled the black menus.
Above is a dump from my ticwatch e after all is said and done (except for userdata, that's still from the same link from above). The recovery is TWRP, system and boot are my restores from TWRP (running oreo), oem is preserved (to keep my oem.prop changes). The rest of the img files are from that mega link above (filename TicwearToAndroidWear.7z). Note: I haven't tested it, but if my SP Flash reading skills need some work, you should be able to replicate my steps ( download TicwearToAndroidWear.7z, replace recovery with TWRP, splice in the boot, system, userdata from forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/rom-kernel-t3786600, then find a TWRP backup to restore from. I can probably provide my boot and system WIN files if my img files don't work.
Hello,
I have an old Lenovo A6000 Phone which has corrupted memory i assume. It does not want to flash even after letting it sit for 8 hours straight the download is stuck and when booting TWRP 3.1.1-0 x64 image it displays 0mb internal storage but reads the sd card fine.
It used to work fine, I had AOSP installed in it with the HEX-FIRMWARE-PATCH FOR ARM64. if my memory didnt fail me, it stoped working after i tried to restore it to the original firmware.
NOTE that twrp recovery doesnt boot and its stuck in the loading screen of lenovo, I ACCEESED IT THROUGH FLASHING IT RESTARTING BACK AGAIN TO BOOTLOADER THEN BOOTING IT IN FASTBOOT
NOTE THAT IF I DONT FLASH IT AND RESTART IT DOESNT BOOT FROM THE BOOTLOADER AND IT JUST GETS STUCK.
i have managed to run 3.0.1 x32 and 3.1.1-0 x64 and both show 0mb memory and DOESNT WANT TO REPAIR THE PARTITIONS NOR WIPE THEN AND UNABLE TO MOUNT.
i have an old twrp 2.7.1 but it doesnt work, i guess from the patch.
From what i have read around here, there is a way to reformat or repair the phone through the terminal command but it was for another phone and i am a bit lost what to specify for the partitions on this phone.
If anyone has an idea how to fix it or can just give some hints where i can find the blocks names it would be really helpful. Thank you!
