[Solved] No way to unbrick my A2017G ? - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

I have no idea how I managed to get into this situation.
My A2017G was on Oreo 8.1 RR with a treble partition. Since I wasn't happy with that I want to go back to the newest stock rom.
So i followed this Guide [GUIDE] [A2017G] Return to Stock from Custom ROM - Updated.
I flashed the bootstack, then I flashed the stock system and the result was a dfu brick. Meanwhile i have an Axon 7 teared down into pieces, so I'm able to flash with MiFlash.
I tried to flash these roms until now:
ZTE_A2017GV1.2.0B06_FULL_EDL_PACKAGE_BY_TURKDEVS
A2017G_B09_NOUGAT_FULL_EDL
A2017G_B10_NOUGAT_FULL_EDL
ZTE_A2017GV1.2.0B10_Stock_System_by_raystef66 (+ ZTE_A2017GV1.2.0B10_BootStack_by_raystef66)
(I also tried to flash the "Remove Bootloader Unlock Warning" zip afterwards...)
My only chance to get into the TWERP Recovery is to replace an original recovery.img with the twerp one and flashing with the test point method.
All of them result in a dfu brick or stuck in the Axon7 logo screen after the animation (if i force a shutdown, it will result in a dfu brick too).
I'm out of any ideas since every single try result in a broken device. Does anyone has a suggestion what to do now?

No need to disassemble the phone. You can always get back into EDL with this method:
http://en.miui.com/thread-310325-1-1.html
Note that you should unplug the device to remove the wire in step 10 to avoid any possibility of damage. The device will remain in EDL mode until rebooted.
I don't have a G model, and I don't run stock. So I can't help there except to recommend that you flash back to a supported Lineage build to unbrick.
Good luck.

I already tried the wire method and the EDL-cable method. Unfortunatly both of them failed.
imho, the axon 7 teardown is very easy and worked fine for me.
I'll try to flash the newest lineage, maybe it works for me. But I still think there is more corrupted than just the OS. All I can do is booting into recovery and getting stuck at the penuin screen or at the axon 7 screen at the end of the stock boot animation.
Edit: No luck with Lineage or any other rom. I think it's a wrong setting or something like that, but I don't know how to set everything back to default

keep this in mind, not all G users can do the cable procedure. He's just one more on a pretty big list. It's okay to suggest that unbricking without disassembly is possible but it's nowhere near 100% (or even 50% i'd say) effectivity. Same with FTM mode, people reported that they could get there after draining the battery, well it didn't work for everyone

First flash a full EDL image, such as Nougat B10 or whatever new G package is available. Then you can install TWRP via EDL with "EDL Tool" by djkuz for example. After flashing you HAVE TO GET INTO TWRP or it'll get overwritten with the stock recovery. once you're there, to install lineage you'll need vendor, follow the procedures to get a working vendor and you're done

After some failures I finally managed to flash the B12 Nougat full EDL. Best I can do with that is getting the Axon 7 logo after the boot animation. I'll try to install TWRP with the EDL Tool now.
edit: TWRP works for now. I'll backup the whole thing before it goes crazy again.
edit2:
TWRP: works
options menu: works
fastboot: stucks at black screen with a little penguin
booting after 5sec screen: stucks at black screen with little penguin
Does anyone has a step by step tutorial how to fix this ?

You have no fastboot, because N builds don't have it by default. If you select fastboot it simply boots into system. (in your case it attempts to, so it ends up in the same situation).
Try to install LOS14.1 maybe, since it's just modem, bootstack and ROM. I have zero hope that it'll work but it may as well do the trick. I have no idea why this is happening to you but it's just plain weird, I mean EDL should reflash most partitions

flashed TWRP 3.2.3
made a full edl backup
whiped data, system, cache, dalvik
flashed bootstack_O_b12
flashed oreo modem
flashed lineage-15.1-20180810
flashed pico gapps
it works now

Help twrp

I have a Huawei P9 Lite and i have installed twrp and android 7.0 on it. Now I want to install Google assistant, but when i try to boot in twrp recovery (volume down + power b) it shows me the screen where it says ''Installing update'' and then freezes at 5 % so i have to hold my power button to power off the phone.
If I dont try to run in the twrp, phone works just fine.
I apologize for my bad english.
Hi there,
I will move your thread in the correct forum dedicated to Huawei P9 Lite for more relevant answers.
Good luck
Bump..
Just to state that I am in the same boat here; as I am facing the same issue. Here's what happened in my case (using a guide found here at XDA-Developers):
-- unlocked the bootloader
-- booted to bootloader and flashed twrp
-- used adb to reboot to recovery (adb reboot recovery)
-- used twrp recovery to flash nougat update (two zip files, one ~1300mb and second ~680mb)
-- had some errors that were expected, the guide said ignore them and reboot after both zips have been flashed.
-- the flash overall was successful as the phone booted in emui 5 with android nougat. However, there was no virtual keyboard; so decided to do a factory reset
-- rebooted to recovery, but this time, the phone booted to huawei erecovery
-- did a factory reset, but to no avail
-- now, i can't boot into twrp to flash anything else. booting into bootloader and using fastload to flash recovery image is successful, but the phone does not boot to twrp recovery; remain stuck on "your phone is booting up" (or something similar).
My phone is not bricked, as basic telephony, wifi and built-in apps are working fine. But, without a keyboard, its pretty useless for everyday use. Any help in this matter will be appreciated.

This seems helpful; but how can I flash recovery if I can't boot to fastboot?
[Update] Oh, got to fastboot, trying the suggested recovery now.

[SOLVED]Advice on Soft brick

Hi guys,
i ****ed up and need some advice.
I soft-bricked my axon 7.
Situation was as follows.
I had installed AEX Oreo Rom (build from May somewhen) along with the according B10+B32 bootstack and exclusive TWRP 3.2.1.7.
This configuration ran fine. However, i decided that i wanted to upgrade and started to Flash B32 bootstack and TWRP 3.2.1.8 (with treble).
I recognized that this configuration wasnt able to boot the current rom, so i reverted to B10+B32 bootstack and TWRP 3.2.1.7 and make a full backup of current config.
After that, i wanted to Flash newer bootstack and twrp again and continue installing the newest AEX with treble.
HOWEVER i had the greatly stupid idea to Flash DrakenFX's universal Bootloader and modem. The BL states that my device is corrupt and wont boot into either recovery or System.
I still can boot into fastboot and EDL Registers as "Handset Diagnostic Interface(DFU)"....
Is there a way that i can flash the correct bootstack via fastboot? I have made a complete backup earlier using axon7tool.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nope, i did +- same mistake with you. You need to make an edl cable. I made it in 2 mins and flashed full edl. No need fancy buttons etc. Just short green and black cable when you have to by pressing with your fingers.

that's not a brick dude, that's a normal warning when using draken's bootstack
press power a couple of times and everything will be okay
to remove it, visit the los15.1 thread (second or third post)
and it registers as DFU because you're not entering EDL the correct way but instead you're entering into DFU mode.
Modding the cable by shorting the wires gives a deep edl flash ...
An edl flash can be done without modding the cable ...
Use the Miflash app ...
Edl mode is ...
Turn phone off ...
Press and hold ....volup + voldn + pwr buttons for 10 to 15 seconds ..
You will be stuck on a black screen ...led flash red ..
Open Miflash ...
Plug your phone into the cable ....
Miflash should detect ....if not hit refresh ...
Then flash an edl package to suit your phone ....there are several packages on XDA ....
I hope this helps in the future ...
BTW this is how I rescued mine after a bad flash
Voenix said:
I had the same problem a few days ago. When I booted to EDL Mode the red led was instantly on but the PC recognized it somthing like ZTE Handset Device Mode.
1. You can download TWRP Treble by NFound and flash it via your TWRP. Then reboot to recovery again and under the reboot tab its possible to boot to EDL/9008 Mode.
2. You build a EDL Cable to get the device from the red light to EDL mode. Just open some usb cable and connect the green and black (all four) together, plug it in the device and press the power button
until the red light is gone and hold on two additional seconds. Then remove the cable and plug another working cable in and the PC recognize it as Qualcomm in EDL mode.
This is literally how I unbricked my device.

Thanks you guys on the advice!
I have made an EDL cable and was able to put the phone back into deep EDL.
I then restored my backups i took with axon7tool. Phone is in working order again!
Thanks again for pointing in the right direction to all of you! :good:

A2017G only EDL mode available, need help with brick

Hello
Long story short, i digged out my axon 7 to use it with some music apps.
I wanted to return the phone to stock firmware, it had unlocked bootloader and running a custom nougat rom (AEX i think).
I followed this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-axon-7-universal-unbrick-t3814413 and flashed full EDL package.
Now when i try to turn on the phone, or enter recovery i see the boot logo and quick flash of the commandpromt with a broken droid and the phone turn off again.
I can still enter EDL mode and flash the phone.
Any ideas how i get it up and ruunning gain ? preferably on stock firmware
Thanks

Use one of the less archaic methods:
Download "EDL Tool" from the ROMs, kernels, development section, along with an EDL package that goes with your phone model. Put your phone in EDL and just flash it with that tool. after that, if it still doesn't boot you have to format data, because you might have conflicting data. If you can't do it from EDL Tool (i think you can, don't remember) just enter the recovery with Vol+ and Power and make a factory reset
My story is very similar and now i'm stuck in EDL mode. I was able to flash stock Oreo B02 EDL package successfully and boot into OS. But after i was trying to unlock bootloader and reboot to recovery, ZTE logo appears for a second or two and then following error message starts looping:
(broken droid logo)
No command
Supported API: 3
E:failed to mount /cache: Invalid argument
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_locale
EDL mode works but if i flash EDL package or boot/recovery again nothing changes, i still get the same error. Can't boot to OS any more and recovery does not work - screen just stays black.
So what are my options now to get it to work again?
From some other threads, I believe you could try to EDL flash Nougat instead of Oreo, it would work better.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/help/help-edl-factory-restore-stuck-device-t4031619
I did that already but no luck, i still end up with the same error.
Is there some way to reformat or clean up internal storage completely in EDL mode? It seems that some garbage left behind by trying to unlock bootloader is surviving even EDL ROM flash and breaking OS boot.

According to other threads, the problem could be due to "sparse" structure while flashing.
I suggest the following:
- Use Axon 7 EDL toolkit to flash latest official TWRP recovery (for Oreo a specific TWRP would be requied).
- Inside TWRP then wipe data/factory reset and at the utmost Format data. Then retry to boot.
- If not OK, reflash with EDL full ROM and try again.
Already done that for several times with O ja N EDL rom's but no luck. Can't get to recovery nor make system to boot.
Did you successful unlocked bootloader?
If not, I would recommended Axon 7 EDL Tool by djkuz, flashing nougat edl package and unlock it through the options.
Can you get into stock recovery after flashing EDL package? It supposed to have a format option for userdata and cache.
Did you try to get into fastboot mode? Power + Vol up buttons if i'm not wrong.
If so, you could try to format these partitions.
fastboot erase /cache
fastboot erase /data
I have experienced the same problem but I have resolved flashing, with Xiaomi MiFlash (sometimes I use this program because occasionally flashing EDL packages with AxonEDLTool, it gives me problems like this) this package Axon7_RR-O_B32-B10_TREBLE-Ready_Oki20180803_FULL_EDL.
With this EDL, if the flash is successful, you will find NFound recovery 3.2.1-7 installed with which you can make a complete wipe and / or format them with the file system you prefer.
Afterwards, using MiFlash or EDLTool at your discretion, you can flash the EDL of the original system if you prefer.
I'm not an expert but this has solved my problem.
To unlock the bootloader, if the unlocking with EDLTool does not go well (it happened to me just yesterday while I was installing a Rom on another Axon 7), you can use Axon7ToolKit 1.2.1, it always worked well for me.
I hope it can help :fingers-crossed:.

Hi, just want to let here my solution for the same problem, it may help others.
I tried to flash A2017G_B10_NOUGAT_FULL_EDL and A2017G_B02_OREO_FULL_EDL but always getting the Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_locale error, phone completely bricked.
So I flashed A2017_B13_FULL_EDL_UNBRICK_DFU using MiFlash through EDL, you can find this here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/a2017-4th-category-brick-repair-manual-t3585898 (if your EDL mode works fine there is no need to disassemble the phone as shown in that tutorial)
Now the phone is completely working, recovery and system, but everything in chinese.
Then I flashed A2017G_B02_OREO_FULL_EDL using MiFlash through EDL, and now everything is working and in english
Thanks a lot for the tip! A2017_B13_FULL_EDL_UNBRICK_DFU did the trick and unbrick the phone.
What i did:
1. used MiFlash to flash A2017_B13_FULL_EDL_UNBRICK_DFU
2. after that A2017G_B03_OREO_FULL_EDL
3. reboot to recovery and performed factory reset
First time I did not perform the factory reset and got stuck on the boot picture without the reset function (power button did not work). Drained the battery and performed factory reset and got the phone working again.
update:
Phone is not stable on B03, some apps crashing from time to time for no apparent reason and also soft reboots happening randomly.
Now I got stuck on the Axon boot screen again after rebooting the phone manually and waiting for the battery to drain ...
i did not install or perform any custom action to the system, just regular use and apps, but it is still acting up badly.
I was planning to use this phone as a secondary handset because it is actually a very nice piece of hardware but now i am starting to have second thoughts about that.

Rollback to Nougat from Custom Oreo.

Hi.
I'm trying to rollback from Lineageos 15.1 to Nougat b35, but I'm having issues doing so. When I flash the stock edl package through miflash, it flashes okay; nothing wrong happens, but when I boot the phone, it shows the ZTE logo, the 5 sec screen, then the screen goes black and the phone shutdowns. If I try to get into recovery, it shows some logo, then the screen goes black. I can flash custom edl packages just fine.
Anything special I need to do to be able to flash the stock rom?
Flash rom trough edlwith miflash.Boot in stock recovery and do factory reset,boot phone.
Remember you lose all data

Yeah well, pity that "booting into stock recovery" is something he can't do, like he said
What I'd do is flash Nougat B19 (it has Fastboot) and entering fastboot right away on the 5 second screen. From there issue "fastboot format userdata" and you should be done.
Other stuff you can try is flashing an assortment of TWRPs via EDL Tool and trying to enter any. (if you want to avoid downloading b19 lol) The official, unmaintained one from twrp.me (for ailsa_ii of course) might work, otherwise maybe Oki's B12 recovery, NFound's 3.2.1-8. Enter them right away with Vol UP or from the 5 second screen because they'll get replaced after the (failed) boot

I flashed Nfound's recovery and wiped data and cache and it freezes in the 5 sec screen, I can't go past it. Will try downloading the B32 and Oreo stock to see if I can go back to stock.

Just download B19 Nougat, not B32... b32 is largely the same as B35 (i.e. no added fastboot). Not sure about Oreo, but I think it has no fastboot.
But you had to FORMAT DATA, not wipe it lol

MI A1 can't boot in either stock or custom rom

Hi all,
I hope someone can guide me through. My MI A1 device has suddenly stopped booting for no reason. To fix up I tried many thing but with no luck.
here is link to one of the thread I have followed
Reddit thread
This guy exactly had the same issue as mine but on different model and I followed all the instruction as in this thread.
Summary of things I tried so far (Including instructions from the thread I mentioned) :
- Try mi flash tool to flash stock rom (Which succeeds and nothing actually works )
- Tried my luck with lineage os 17 and GPAPPS but no luck. (Interestingly, when I Install LOS and I the reboot device, it boots in LOS recovery fine but when I try to boot system it just keep rebooting and then finally stops at charging screen.)
PS. One more observation, when I flash it with MIflash tool with stock rom and it boots up for the first time, an intermediate screen with circle logo and erasing text appears just like when we get update screen not sure why!
Guys, this is my last bet on XDA. I almost wasted my whole day searching for solution on #Youtube and other forums, nearly read a ton of things but still no luck!
Please Help!
UPDATE :
Here is a little more progress,
So, I tried flashing the original stock rom boot image with fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and as usual first it just got rebooted with no luck but later somehow booted the device. I tried the same with recursion OS ROM and then again flashed boot image and just like prev attempt it rebooted first & then booted normally.
Also, when device was booted normally, I received a call and when I tried to pick it, It just got rebooted and I am where I started!
I really don't get the point why it boot when I manually boot it with fastboot and its not able to boot itself.
Anyone knows, why this is happening? Is there a way to clean whole and then install? am I doing something wrong here?
Update :
Yes, confirmed when I flash the boot image from fastboot it does boots up. the only problem is after a few seconds/minutes it just reboot and goes back to problematic state.
This thing is really pissing me off! Can someone help?
Update:
After a few more attempts now, it seems like the device is completely broken! It only boots up in fastboot and does not even boot in recovery ( Volume up + Power)
I also tried with pushing twrp recovery image with fastboot but even though the command succeeds the device just reboots with MI logo continuously.
