see friend, the problem isn't with the battery, I've tried many others ...
the real reason is 'cause I hit format device and it has formatted all partitions from the phone ...
does anyone know how to fix ?

stock ROM
I have never been able to find a stock ROM for Blu devices. I tried finding one for my Blu Studio 5.5s and Bluproducts Support says you must mail your phone to the repair center, that they will not supply ROMs for their phones. Sad situation.
Also it's too late to warn you but anytime you connect a USB device that is known to work, even a little bit, when WIndows says that something needs formatting, NEVER do it, it usually means that there is a problem communicating that Windows believes is an unformatted memory card. This is hardly ever the case.
I guess we are on our own with these Blu phones until either they either take off in popularity and we see more recovery tools or they quite making them and after we have bricked them all due to lack of recovery tools.

Blu Factory Default Recovery for BLU 5.0 2/ 5.5s
Hello BLU User of 5.0 2/ 5.5s
Okay the first thing I will say " DO NOT..... I REPEAT.... DO NOT USE ANY Version OF AIO FLASHER "
because the program is a real B.S flasher.... 1. it hangs like crazy
2. their is no progress bar/ status bar
3. the only real thing that works is backup
4. all partition on drive is NOT PROTECTED
Meaning all partition will be erased if you f-up
hit yes when you should have press NO..
now with all that said both phone are great 5.0 2/ 5.5s
I Already Brick the crap out of Blu 5.0 2, Now I have the Blu 5.5s
All I want to do is Drop CWM on it..... to no avail..
I Can tell you this....... I manage to f-up the stock default recovery
so now there is no default recovery for on a brand new phone
I got it rooted no prob... all of my backup come without default
recovery..
the Question is how can i recreate the default recovery partition
on main system memory card or would it be possible to create that
partition on my 64G SDCARD Via the Computer ?

Edit:
Fixed: Reflash Preloader / EMI from original ROM - Boot into Factory menu (Not Recovery) Turn off the phone.
Start SPFlashTool - Select Scatter.txt (Make sure its Scatter from the Original ROM) - Flash Original FULL Rom - Reflash Boot/Recovery/Pre Entire ROM -
Adb Install Update
Done!
---------------------------
I have managed to brick the Blu Studio X today using SPFlashTool.
EMI Obtain DRAM Fail.
This started when I replaced Factory recovery with CWM which turned out to be even worst than Factory. I got it Rooted without issue but in an effort to Flash back to Stock Recovery, I was unsuccessful.
The phone is detected by the PC now but I cannot do anything. The battery is integrated also.
What I need is the entire Blu Stock ROM including the Preloader. Without this, I cannot Unbrick it. Any help or ideas would be great.

Very urgent please, how do I get into bootloader (factory menu) without going through recovery? My D830u is in a Blu logo boot loop without recovery or anything. I need fastboot mode

Black screen, no DL mode, no boot, just a brick - device without root

Hello guys!
Unfortunately I have managed to full brick my phone which has worked without any issues for more then 3 years.
My story:
1. Phone started to have random restarts, basicaly, when phone lagged little bit - it restarted phone.
2. When I did manual restart, I got into bootloop and could not get out
3. With a heavy heart I did a factory reset. - Problem with random restarts ontinued together with random bootloops.
4. Did maybe 5 more factory resets, nothing happened.
5. Found a tutorial to flash new firmware.I was on 5.0.2 D802 30d so I used same. (PC suite could not find my phone and LG support tool always freezed on SW install)
6. I used LG Flash tool with normal flash. - used *.kdz which I have downloaded via LG support tool - checked size with dl from source from xda and they were same so i used it.)
7. All success, but device keep restarting - i think no bootloop anymore.
8. I did full flash again with LG flash tool so have a clean install and hopefully fix everything.
9. Suddenly mid-install my phone auto-disconnected from laptop and even with Retry attemps I wasnt able to get it running again. Then my phone restarted itself and that was it.
Now I cannot go to recovery mode, I cannot go to Download mode, all I see is black screen (turns some light on little bit underneath but no data visible).
Also when connect to my Windows 10 laptop multiple discs trying to load and trying to format disk. (one of them contains folder image with some files inside).
I dont have root, I dont have any other tools installed on my phone, just a normal user.
I tried to download adb but i dont understand it much, and also it cannot find my device.
Is there any way how to still fix my phone or is it completely lost
If so, I please you for a dummies step-by-step list .
Thank you so much in advance. :crying:

So good news,
I managed to load img back with dd application.
My Download mode together with factory reset is working.
I have tried to flash it with LGUP and even with some accused usb disconnections I probably managed to flash new lollipop to my phone.
Now it is optimalizing apps to load android correctly. Only issue I have is low battery, it always drains it too quickly so it cannot load properly.
Any idea how to charge the battery? Every time I connect phone with usb cable it starts up into boot, possible bootloop (cannot say if it is because of low battery or real bootloop)
Thanks

Dude try to install crdroid 7.1.2 nougat rom of d802 this will fix your battery problem
root it and install TWRP with srktools 2.0
this is best way to root G2 5.0.1 lolipop
you can also use LG One Click Root to obtain root then don't update su binary and install Autorec of you model to get twrp

Zte axon 7 mini edl backup needed - lost stock recovery!

Hi Guys,
I would greatly appreciate any help. I have somehow lost the TWRP & Stock recovery to my ZTE ANXON 7 MINI.
I had a custom rom and decided to flash a stock update zip and that rendered my phone unusable. I have managed to get it too boot to 6.0.1 B9 Spanish rom. However i have NO RECOVERY to flash the original update for the UK B12 Rom.
Im using the EDL Tool to flash. If anyone has the stock recovery to the B9 6.0.1 Rom that would be a big help. Or a EDL full backup.
All links to the ZTE website are down as they are no longer allowed to use ANDROID.
Also to note i have tried to reinstall TWRP however im left with either a white screen or nothing just bootloop.
Unable to unlock bootloader also as i have no fastboot option as recovery is dead
Thanks.

This are (full flash)EDL roms(need to extract to folder "flash\full ",and flash(not recovery ))B12.6Android.EDL.EU.Version
B13.Android7.EDL.EU.Version

If you have white screen or ZTE logo then I know how to solve it.
Funny enough, hook the phone to the pc, open adb command and type adb devices.
You will see you pc recognises the phone in adb as recovery.
If this happens let me know and I'll show you how to push the entire bootstack to data/media, then write all these files to each partition. After that your twrp will work and you are done.
These happened to me about 10 times now and I even created a bat file which I double click and it does all the operations at once then reboots straight into twrp. Quite cool actually.
Nevertheless I'm also interested in an edl ROM to umbrick another axon 7 mini I have which is totally, utterly bricked.
I have opened the phone (still opened) and I managed once to get the test point to work and connect to qcn configurator but since then I never got it to be recognised again.
Good luck
Cheers

Mate, you don't know how helpful this post was.
I have bricked this [nasty] phone about 10 times.
but yesterday I learn yet another lesson, after trying to flash a new splash screen, the phone went totally dead, connecting directly in DFU mode.
I sort of panicked because I didn't have a fresh data backup and there aren't full EDL ROM for this phone easily found on the web.
After focusing in making sure my laptop had the correct drivers (loader/bulk/adb) and after I got confident to use the deepflash cable to move from DFU to EDL, bulk device recognised, right click on it and update the driver to show the loader (901D) then I though what would be the next step.
I did not understand the MIflash tool and the version I had didn't seem to work at all I scratched my had for a while.
I then used the EDL tool, placed your files into the FULL folder and ran through the steps...….mate.....that was beautiful.
I ended up flashing the full B13 on top of the B09 and the system works perfect without any loss of data.
Having learnt all this, I went brave and confident I could rescue my other axon 7 min, which had been dead for over 2 months. Although I had to open it to access the test point, after about 50 or more attempts, I had tried lots of combinations, test point again etc.
It turned out I have left the phone plugged in to the PC with every plug disconnected except the usb board and went to do the washing up. 2-3min later my pc gave a sound, loader 901D was already ready and I repeated the exact process.
You basically saved both of my phones!!!! THANK YOU

Lenovo A6000 Hard Bricked - Cannot Find Solution - Sahara errors

Hi, so I've been around here for a while and I've had pretty good success with flashing phones.
However, I have a Lenovo A6000 that is hardbricked with Resurrection Remix ROM:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/development/rom-resurrectionremix-5-8-1-t3555184
Followed the destructions and now it is stuck rebooting. I'll see the neat RR logo start and then it will freeze, and then reboot.....over and over. I didn't wipe the phone and start new...thought I could install TWRP and wipe it, flash the new ROM and be done. Nothing like being confident.
So now, it is hardbricked after trying to flash the stock rom....and I cannot figure out how to fix it. Downloaded QFIL, and the stock ROM, installed the Qualcomm drivers, put the phone into Fastboot with VOLUME DOWN + POWER BUTTON and QFIL see's the phone but gets stuck on fail sahara error. I have done countless searches online and the videos I have found don't resolve the problem. Google search turns up no solution. There is a thread here that basically just dies with no solution.
The phone ready for the trash bin?
Also tried Lenovo Downloader and it also gets stuck on step Sahara.
The little cheap phone belongs to a girlfriend of mine (she's a single mom) who has no money to buy a new one, and everyone here knows how awful the stock ROM. So I'm trying to help her out and flash this bugger. I had an A6000 before I bought my MiMax2 and it wasn't a bad little phone after getting RR on it.
Will anyone be willing to help?

?
So no one is willing to help with this problem huh?
From what I can tell the phone is junk now....even though both QFIL and Lenovo Downloader will see it when I plug it in.
Well...thanks anyway.

So who wants to be paid to help fix this problem? You must have PayPal and must be able to solve the problem.

I guess the problem is that a lower version OS can't be installed via QFIL. For example if the phone got bricked in lollipop you can't install kitkat on it via QFIL. Although the same version OS might work (lollipop to lollipop) and of course higher version OS will work.
I have also had some version of QcomDLoader flash tool work where other flash tools simply failed or even older versions of QcomDLoader didn't work.
This is the one that worked for me https://androiddatahost.com/dt3gh9

move firmware (SW_LENOVO BLABLABLA) to loca disk :C
restart pc > then flash again.

Bricked Lenovo Tab M10 fhd plus while trying to downgrade, any advice?

Hi,
I'm not sure I'm posting in the right section but, I had a really bad experience upgrading to android 10. Really sluggish and slow... so I tried to downgrade to android 9 by using Lenovo's Rescue and Smart Assistant.
What I did, is to find the stock ROM for my model, and replace the files downloaded by the Rescue Assistant (which downloaded the latest firmware). The process went through, but now the device wont power on.
When I plug in the USB, windows makes a sound, the charging light comes on, but The rescue Assistant nor SP flash tool is able to flash the latest firmware.
Is it bricked for good?
Model : TB-XF606F
Hardware number : 60

Maybe your computer doesn't recognize your tablet. Did you ever try using sp flash tool with your tablet before? You can try reinstall or install a driver for your table if you haven't done it yet.

Well the tablet is recognized as the "mtk vcom..." in device manager. I guess it is the driver that the lenovo rescue app installed.
I have never used sp flash tool with my tablet, just the lenovo rescue.
I tried on 2 different pc and it is the same thing. I think the problem is that I can't turn off the tablet properly, even though, all I can see is a black screen.
I will try to drain the battery by keeping the power button pressed with some scotch tape. I don't know what I can do else.
Edit: I tried a few other times with flash tool using different setting for the connection (with battery and full speed) and nothnig happened. But now windows says it does not recognize my tablet.

did the same thing exactly. . bricked lenovo m10 fhd plus x600v after i flashed a downgrade version. dont try to downgrade this thing. i had already flashed it with 3 or 4 versions the same way , but when i chose to flash the oldest version available with the model , this tab got completly unresponsive , no feedback when try to boot into recovery, fastboot, or system . neither does it gets recognised in windows or anything - device manager dowsnt recognise this usb device ( in device manager properties comments it reads- USB\DEVICE_DESCRIPTOR_FAILURE). if you find a way to reflash the device please let us know. good luck .

Bricked mine after being completely running smoothly on Lineage, then was messing around trying to get gapps installed and jacked up the partitions. TWRP said no OS. Kept messing around and mistakenly locked the bootloader again with apparently an unverified boot partition. . I couldn't get SP Flash tool to work ever either. Pretty sure it's a door stop now.
