Hi there! My name is Tharik and i have already followed tips and tutorials of the forum, but today i have a big problem... First of all, i'm sorry for the bad english, not my primary language! About the problem... My zenfone 5 got on bootloop 2 days ago, i couldnt use ADB because my PC isnt recognizing the phone, so, i gave up of my data and made the reset, but, after that, i got a message about low storage space with 4,8gb free??? I cant install anything, plus, i have noticed that some of my apps shows as 0,00kb.. i made the reset 3 more times, and nothing changed! I was going to reinstall the stock, firmware, but, my pc still doesnt recognizes the phone! Someone can help me? Thanks!!!

[HELP] T-Mobile Wing: Hard Reset Doesn't Work..

Hello Everyone,
I'm having problem with my Wing hope someone can help me.
I was trying to install HERALD_WM6.0_4.17.07.11 which I though I'd be happy to have "WM 6.0 OS: TouchFlo" on the wing because it looks cool but somehow during installation I had an error. During copying system files I massed up something. So I had to reboot the device but after rebooting it, it freezed. I tried to soft reset it kept freezing. So I desided to do Hard reset for restoring manufacturer default. So I pressed Send key to restore but it kept freezing.
Please anybody can help me?
Try this.
Removing your SD card before rebooting it.
.Looks like you bricked your device.search for official wing ruu rom and install it.i am 100% sure it solve by taking you to out of box state(Ie. you will loose all data in device.I doubt if you still have some data in it )

I am sorry for asking this. Are you following right steps to hard reset.pressing 3 buttons at a time.
Thank You guys for your help! But I am getting new wing after calling customer service lol..

[Q] Note 2 playing up?

Hi All,
Before anybody asks if i have checked in previous threads (i spent 4 and half hours). My problem is I have been rooting for a couple of years now, I have numerous Roms on my sd card (32Mg) but now when i put them on to my phone i noticed that i get errors on my TWRP but still allows me to get the Rom. When it starts up i get about 3 vibrates and it proceeds. When i try to download from playstore i get the minus 24 error code so i cant put anything on it from there, i have tried deleting previous from my internal memory but still no luck. What i want to know is can i in anyway put it back to the beginning ie restore. i have backed up my phone before but it cannot find it. Can i restore it from Odin (if so where do i get the source from?) also i have read that it can brick your phone if not followed right. Hope someone can help?

[Q] S4 i9505 reboot loop after OTA upgrading to Lollipop

Hi guys,
I have a big problem. Today, Samsung Spain has sent me the OTA upgrade for my device. I've installed it as I always do, I waited until everything finished, I started running the device and everything seemed to work fine, but after an error I had to restart and it has entered in a reboot loop with the Samsung logo.
Do you know anything I can do?
If it helps, my device is encrypted due to company policies. When I switch on the device, it asks for the pin code to unencrypt it, and after that is when it starts to reboot.
Thank you very much for any help you can bring.
Best regards,
I have the same problem with my phone after the OTA update.After the update it work's fine for 2-3 day and the start entering in bootloop over and over.I give him a wipe data/factory reset and it workked fine for 2 days and then the same problem.I put another ROM from Black Edition and after 2 days same problem.Now i put out my sd card to see if is doing the same .
sorry for my english

Try to factory reset from recovery. If it doesn't work download Russian lollipop ao7 firmware from sammobile
Sent from my Galaxy Note 5 using Tapatalk
I made factory reset at least 10 times until I switched to 4.4.2 about 2 hours ago.I want to see if the problem is Lollipop or my phone.
Finally, I wiped from recovery to factory reset.
I've lost all I had in the device, but almost everything was in the SD card. My problem now is that, as I said, my device was encrypted due to corporate policies and also the SD card was. Now I see the SD card content but seems to be corrupted. I guess it is because I have to decrypt it, but I don't know how to do it, because when I access Settings it only says Encrypt SD card.
Could anyone help me, please?
Thank you very much!

[A2017G] LineageOS 14.1 - Can not access TWRP anymore, can't get through setup either

Hey folks,
I did not find anything on this issue, seems to be rather unique. Let me describe the problem.
This is my father's Axon 7 and he wanted me to get him a different ROM on there, which I did, and it worked smoothly until today. It kept crashing, freezing and was literally unusable for unknown reasons.
So since he was going to be gone for the next few days, I had no choice but to remove the ROM and data and reflash it. HOWEVER I did not delete the internal storage since I did not think it would be necessary. Sitting in the setup, I had issues getting through it, it will not pop up the keyboard to let me type the wifi password neither does it let me pass through if I wanted to use mobile data. It simply gets stuck. Sometimes random android processes tend to crash and put me at the start of the setup and I can't get to the settings which does prevent me from enabling USB-debugging or OEM unlock.
If I try to get into the recovery (which is still on there) it will simply get stuck on the screen that says ZTE, did not work through fastboot either, same issue.
(I do personally think that some app data is corrupted and causes the issue, since I wiped everything except internal storage and I still have major issues)
So here am I, stuck. I hope someone can enlighten me, or tell me how stupid I am and point me at something completely obvious. Thanks

well, you can use EDL maybe?
The fastest way out is downloading the A2017G_FULL_EDL file from our Russian friends and use MiFlash while in EDL mode to flash the cluster**ck of a phone that you have.
The closest thing I've seen was a friend's Galaxy Grand 2 (like 5 years old) that maybe had a part of the system corrupted or a slightly dead eMMC. a bunch of stuff just crashed for no apparent reason. I reflashed the system and it got fixed for some time, then it started doing some weird sh!t again (after booting, you have an 80% chance that it will just freeze forever, hard reboot needed). But let's hope for the best and see if you can recover it by reflashing stock totally. If it still doesn't work you might be able to relock the BL and claim the warranty

Hey,
After a long day I managed to fix it, I was able to use the adb in fastboot and could reinstall the recovery and managed to run it, deleted internal storage and reinstalled everything. Seems to have done the trick. I hope it will keep working now.

Lenovo A6000Plus Bootloop problem (Unrooted device)

Good day everyone, i am going to report my delicate and infuriating problem that has been haunting my head for two months
I'll describe my problem in extreme detail, hoping you guys able to identify this disaster.
My android phone is Lenovo A6000 Plus, i've bought it 2 years ago and it's running on latest Lollipop version 5.1.1 I never alter the system files, since i only use my phone for games and communications, and i'm not really into tinkering android's software. so i use my phone like a normal person, do the updates when the settings asked me, update the apps, etc. and this phone running smoothly in my service. i wanted to ask both WISDOM and HELP in this thread.
1. The Bootloop disaster symptoms started on april 2018, when the phone boot SLOWLY AS HELL, seriously.. it took about 1-2 hours to boot, and it also shows the (ANDROID IS UPGRADING 0/132 apps) like wtf? , i haven't update or install any new android apps before this symptom happened. So i leave my phone plugged in and wait it to complete the upgrade; then it worked normally as it should. Unfortunately, it happened EVERYTIME i turn my phone on, EVERY SINGLE TIME.. T_T. so i struggled to avoid my phone from running out from battery as i can. This symptom happened for 3 weeks and it got from bad to worse. I wonder what kind of problem is this?
2. The worse part came when my phone is running at high RAM usage, let's say, i game on my phone alot in my spare time, using the ram up to 1800mb everytime i play game or open chrome browser (Lenovo A6000 plus have 2GB ram). When i close/task manager the apps, my phone launcher wont appear normally as it should (long pressing bottom left button) and it FORCED me to restart the phone and suffer the 1-2 hour LONG BOOT. That's unusual, i cleaned my phone regularly (using cleanmaster) and preserve both of my internal and external storage with 3-4GB free space. I wonder what kind of curse is this?
3. So the bootloop disaster finally got me this May when i turn my phone off and tried to reboot. And... no Android is upgrading 0/132 showed up, i waited for 4 hours and reboot my phone again and again and again. And its finally STRANDED on BOOTLOOP :crying:
Im on panic mode when problem 3 happened, then i searched the almighty Google for help, and found that i can backup my data with TWRP recovery, so i do as it said, followed the guides and BACKED UP all of my data.
For once i felt relieved my data is now saved. Now onto the main problem.
I've had enough of this problem so i format the phone into factory reset, wipe the Dalvik ****s, cache, system and data. All of it. thus, making my phone virgin again.
4. Now im trying to resurrect my phone, and tried my effort by downloading Stock Lollipop 5.1.1 OS again along with its prerequisites. I tried to zip-install it using TWRP but it said that "has not switched carriers and cannot be upgraded" i scratched my head and searched almighty Google again then found that i need to do ####6430### thingy before doing that. umm.. so my phone domain need to be changed, how can i do that with a phone who can't boot? (I'm from Singapore btw). What did i do wrong?? did my phone just turned into useless BRICK? but i've read that bricked phone can't even start the recovery, yet my phone still able to start either with Lollipop stock recovery or TWRP (if i adb fastboot it with adb tools from .cmd), so it's not totally fuc.. uh., BRICKED and i got the chance to fix it.
TL;DR
So, Guys.. i desperately need help. i'm a peon both in work and college, and a dead phone will not make a great company for a person like me.
I searched for enlightments and breakthroughs but always ended up failed resurrecting my phone, can you guys PLEASE :crying: tell/give me a SAFE and WORKING walkthrough to re-install my Lenovo A6000 Plus with Lollipop 5.1.1? And does it running a custom OS like those Cynadrogen thingy is good and worthy enough to speed up my phone? is the chances of getting bricked is unavoidable when running custom OS? I thought its going to be easy like reinstalling Windows, but i was wrong.
FYI, my phone now is UNROOTED and running on TWRP 3.0.2 and i can easily revert it back to Lollipop stock recovery if needed (does it considered rooting if i install custom recovery?) I also need a valid info if my phone would never turn like this again if i resurrect it again.
PLEASE HELP ME PEOPLE
THANK YOU.. ! :highfive:

When 5.1.1 update arrived?
Okay lets get to the point. Just don't panic. You have the stock rom file, extract a file named 'system.zip'. Now go to TWRP, perform advance wipe (wipe dalvik, data, system and cache partitions) and flash that file from TWRP. You'll be on stock rom with a fresh new experience.

Custom ROMs are amazing and far better than the stock lenovo rom. Believe me, no one here is using that crap stock rom. You just need some instructions to flash and your phone will get a new life. We are here to assist you.
