No. No. and none.
I weren't running any roms or anything, but i have tried to root it with z4root and gingerbreak (etc..) a million times...

Your best bet mate is to get into fastboot (should be doable since you're getting to the splash screen), flash a custom recovery and then a custom rom, although this does void your warranty, I think its worth it though. What android version was your phone on before the problems started?

if he installs stock rom and unroots then it should be fine and he will keep his warranty

I dont quiet know how to do that
I was on 2.3.5 have 2gen stock rom
how do i get into fastboot then?

To get clockworkmod on, so you can flash your stock rom, which can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353526
Download fastboot and adb files, grab them either from the android website but through the sdk, or just Google adb and fastboot files and you'll be fine.
Then boot into fastboot by turning your phone on with the volume up button held down. It'll stay at the splash screen, connect to the PC and it should install drivers automatically.
Download the recovery image by googling clockworkmod zte blade. You want 5.0.2.0, it's the latest.
In the command prompt change directory to where your adb and fastboot files are. Then type 'fastboot flash recovery *nameofrecovery*.img'. Then 'fastboot reboot'. Power off the device after and boot into recovery by powering on with the volume down button held. Then flash your stock rom.
Hope this helps, i know it could be better but I'm at a BBQ so on my phone and can't link stuff easily, if you need more help, i can do it tonight. Others I'm sure will help too

Thanx in advanced guys!

ZTE Blade does not respond at all
My ZTE Blade does not respond at all.
I have tried to install the official update from android 2.1 - 2.2 using this official application from ZTE
( ztedevices official site -> downloads -> Greece -> smartphone ->Blade)
It stopped in the middle of the process and after that I cannot use neither Power&volume(+) nor Power+volume(-) nor Power.
It looks completely dead.
Battery is fully charged,
When connected to charger, back button does not get red.
When connected to computer does not show android logo.
I have copied gen1 to gen 2 image folder to sd... nothing
gen2 to gen 1 the same.
I have also tried the AIO-BLADE application no respond to any action.
I have been searching this forum and the internet for 2 days now. No one answers cases whith hardbricked phones.
I think the phone is out of warranty.
PLZ it is my only smartphone and there is no money for a replacement, I am unemployed.
:crying:

LG Nexus 5X Download mode

This is not a how-to! I just want to inform everyone that our LG Nexus 5X has a download mode just like all other lg phones.
Instructions: 1.Plug USB cable into pc 2. Hold volume up and power at the same time and plug phone into usb that's already connected to your pc.
Like I said this is not a how-to so use Google and your brain to get the kdz or tot stock nexus 5X files and convert accordingly.
I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone but I hope this helps anyone out that was not aware. After all xda is all about sharing right ?

Well I got into it by pressing power and vol up after the phone took 5 minutes to boot back up after using a move to system an updated google play app.. Guess the move did not work. And had a hard time getting back into recovery to reflash a saved system image. But there is not much info on what else this mode is good for.. Something about not booting up the CPU but still able to flash? If so then those with problem N7 updates might be able to use this mode to clear the flash and upload a fresh firmware file to get their phones back in working order.

where we can find the official LG Nexus 5X kdz firmware or TOT? I mean not the one from XDA, but the official from LG. Tried searching but not yet found it.

Looking for same

Man, I'm in the boot loop nightmare and am hoping there's a tool from LG that can reflash recovery using download mode. I have tried every way I can find to do that through fastboot, but it won't work. Won't boot to recovery, which is why I want to flash one. It's probably hardware toasted (some research shows this is a problem on this and some other phones using same chip), but thought I'd try everything before giving up on it. It's 2 months out of warranty. :-\

stuck in bootloop
my phone nexus 5x. It is stuck in bootloop and i haven't activated the usb debugging. I have tried entering into download mode but still it not going into download mode. What should I do?

Did you ever manage to solve this? I'm in a boot loop now, and it won't go into recovery mode before rebooting again and again!

Nope. What kills me is these are still being sold by some carriers... knowing full well they are only good for a year+enough time to expire your warranty.

Need help flashing/hard reset defective P8 Lite

Hi,
I bought a water damaged P8 Lite for repair/parts that I was able to bring back to life.
However, volume up key is not working, and phone has a password on it.
I tried a different set of buttons but the problem is in the board.
Consequently I can't boot recovery mode and hard reset the phone.. Is there any other solution to solve this and use this board?
Thanks.

Use fastboot to flash a new firmware....this should work

Well, since you bought water defective P8 Lite, i guess you're having problem on the board (or at least with hardware), and if that's the case then it is better to change the hardware.
But, you can also once try flashing new firmware via fastboot method. Remember flashing requires your bootloader to be unlocked, so make sure it is..
The Process??
Enable Developers Option and USB debugging (assuming that you can switch it on)
Connect your mobile to laptop/computer.
Make sure you have Minimal ADB and Fastboot Installed. Download link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Commands:
adb devices ---- will show your serial number if its enabled
adb reboot bootloader --- will show your bootloader status (if it's green then you can flash files)

hisuite is pretty much useless.

yeah.. I was able to enter fastboot&rescue mode with hisuite but from there i can't recover anything..
Is there any flasher that allows me to flash phone via rescue mode?
Thanks.

Hey, I might have something here, in rescue mode adb doesn't see any devices but using "fastboot devices" i get "QLF7N15615001024"
Can I work with this?
Thanks.

Just read before posting. Since you can enter fastboot just go ahead and download a fastboot flashable firmware from the various threads in this subforum or extract the images from the update.app you want to flash using huawei image extractor.

I broke my axon 7 HELP!!!!!

Hey Guys,
recently I tried to root my ZTE Axon 7 and install TWRP on it(A2017G)(Firmware B03).
It failed and i wanted to reinstall my bootloader and my recovery (i think that i wanted this)
Before i did that i backed up my boot and recovery is i´ve been told to.
I think something went wrong there, but i realised it too late.
When it was failed i didnt know how to reinstall the backuped boot and recovry files, so i thought i could rename them to boot and recovery and flash then with ADB. This failed either and now when i want to start my phone the screen that says ZTE pops up for a second and then goes black.
I know that was silly, but now my Phone is broken and i cant do anything with it, i can not start it, i can not boot in recovery, i can not boot to fastboot.
I tried to boot into Recovery Mode, but the same thing either...
The screen flashes and goes off.
I can´t do anything.
Also when i try to turn it on the LED on the top flashes red and green. I don´t know if its related to my problem, but i need help
PLEASE!!!
I don´t know what to do:crying::crying::crying::crying:

I've uploaded the A2017G B03 stock boot.img and recovery.img (both in the same zip file) to Mediafire, here's the link:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/lz2jco2np4innau/B03.zip

This happened once (well, more than once to be precise) to me too but there's a fix for it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/wip-axon-7-root-bootloader-unlokced-t3441204
What you want to do is follow all of the steps (using axon7root.exe) and use the boot.img and recovery.img provided by razorblader.

I don't think you will have a chance to bring it back to life. It looks like you are in DFU mode but need EDL mode for using tenfars tools.
Unfortunately for the G model you can't enter this mode with hw keys.
But I also have this issue and looking for a solution.
As of now only way is to send it in for repair...

I had the exact same problem and tried pretty much everything I could think off but as Deje63 mentioned the only way is to give it back to the seller and get a refund (if you still can) or send it in for repair.

Just today an Axon 7 owner in the german android-hilfe forum got information he will get a new Axon 7 from ZTE.
He did also send it in for repair because the same issue. It seems even ZTE (europe/germany) does not have the tools/knowledge to flash a stock rom on such bricked devices.
I ask myself what the hell they did or think in reducing the features (for the G model) in fastboot/adb/firmware to that grund. I am a long time in Android but never had a device were there was no chance to (re)flash at least an official stock rom.

Try to access the FTM (Factory Test Mode) by holding the power button and the volume down button. It will say FTM on the display if it was successful.
In case you are still stuck in DFU mode you might have to hold the power button for at least 6 seconds to get the phone to try to reboot.
If you can get into the FTM mode connect the Axon 7 to your PC.
It should show up in the device manager as a Android ADB device.
adb reboot edl
Your screen should go blank and the device should show up as 'Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 com X' in device manager. If you get this far you can use tenfar's axon7root.exe to flash the boot.img and the recovery.img and the phone should boot up normally after that.

Are you sure talking about A2017G? I was able to enter stock recovery (volume up and power). All other key combination leads to DFU mode, regardless the phone was plugged in or not. And believe me, I tried even stupid ones.
But will try when it is back from repair.

I'm talking about the G model of course, on the U version this wouldn't be a problem.
Hope other people who still have their bricked G version phones try this so we can clarify if there's a chance to get into the FTM mode and can determine which 'type' of brick could potentially be revived.
No clue if this is a possibility if the wrong kind/corrupt/whatever bootloader got flashed to the phone but it's worth a try.
Edit: Read in another thread that another user stuck in DFU mode on the G model couldn't make the FTM mode work so there's little hope for this to be working unfortunately.

I do have a question as well. My G model only boots til ENTER ANDROID PASSCODE. Cannot boot into recovery only FTM is possible. Device Manager indicates an adb device, but there seems to be a special driver. Does anyone know how to help?
Thanks in advance...Marcus

Hi Marcus,
I have got the same problem. Did you find any solution since then?
Anyone give me any suggestion please ... :crying:

Yes. The solution was to set it up for a repair. They changed my device without any problems. I told them my phone entered into this state by upgrading on an ota update.
