K3 Note died

Hello friends,
I need help, I'm desperate.
My K3 note died for no reason, I was using it hung up and now will not turn over. When I turn on the charger it does not appear any LED on the phone
I was one month using a custom rom, and he was with root and TWRP Recovery.
I installed MTK SP FlashTools, downloaded the Stock ROM VIBEUI 6.0 and try to make the flash'm finding the following error: Error Brom: S_storage_not_match (3182). Already tried other Stock Roms and all have the same error.
What can I do my friends? I lost cell phone?
Thank you

That error means the tool detects a mismatch between rom and phone. Are you using the latest usb drivers? The com port on the lower right looks different. Usually it says preloader instead of MTK port. Try uninstalling the usb drivers and use a different one. Also, change the Firmware Upgrade option to Download Only. One other thing, try with another rom file, possibly and older version rom first and see if it works. Changing the usb cable and port used won't hurt either.
If nothing works, your phone's EMMC might be dead..

Lenovo A328 Bricked Not Charging Not Booting

I have this Lenovo A328 which suddenly had multiple and continuous gapps crashes. I tried to do a factory reset but the problem still existed. I decided to flash the stock rom using SP Flash Tool. Flashing the stock rom succeeded but then after, the device does not charge nor boot up. It does not even respond to vol up(or down) + power which brings up a menu for testing the device(not recovery). I tried to format it first before flashing but the result is still the same. I also tried flashing stock rom from different source. Any idea on this one?
Update
I tried to flash a stock rom on my Lenovo A328 with SP Flash Tool but the process was interrupted and now after I flashed the stock rom successfully, the phone won't charge nor boot, not even to recovery. I noticed in my EMMC Flash that the sizes of GP1 - 4 are all 0x0.
I found a solution in here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2792667
It says that I have to flash the rom using DOWNLOAD first and then flash it again with FIRMWARE UPGRADE. I'm already at the FIWMWARE UPGRADE process but I got this error
Failed to get PMT info.

Hi, I am having the same problem. Could you help?

Hello everyone!
I am facing the same problem!!!
Tried almost all the solutions suggested on different sites or forums, nothing works, still no charge and no start...
Change the PC, the USB cables, drivers, ROM's, you name it... Someone said this MTK devices are hard to brick but still, why we cannot revive our devices??? Hardware failure? Not really according to some technicians as long your phone is detected by the pc in device manager, the phone CAN be "unbricked".
SO, we are missing something, we doing something wrong???
We need help.... SOMEONE???

please send me the firmware

I have the same problem about my lenovo a328. After flashing, it's not booting and turning on. It's not even charging. So what I did is I tried to firmware upgrade it and I got this ''failed to get PMT info'' alert. Someone know how to revive this phone?

I got 2 phones and they've bricked themselves
Hi,
I got 2 Lenovo A328s and they've bricked themselves, having the same symptoms.
I can get them to boot in Recovery, and I am waiting to download an image to sideload with ADB, which seems to work.
One of them was still in use, but had software glitches, like the camera driver not working in any app.
The other one was replaced 10 months ago, but after long time, it also bricked.
I haven't attempted any flash of new firmware.

I have the same problem, the phone isn't charging and I can't use vol up+ power buttons.
Can you send me the software please and some instructions?

Help - Lenovo a1000-G (Indian Version) - I think it is hard bricked.

Reposting it here, since this is the Lenovo sub-forums. Probably may find more help here.
I was using the Allegro ROM for the A1000G and it was running fine and dandy without any problems. Last night I tried installing a game and after I restarted it, it didn't turn on. I thought that maybe the device had low battery or something. So I plugged it in and let it charge for an hour and it still didn't turn on. Than I let it charge overnight and in the morning, it still doesn't turn on. So I tried to flash the Stock ROM for Lenovo a1000g and I got an error saying the storage was different or something - Error 3182 Message: BROM ERROR: S_STORAGE_NOT_MATCH (3182) [Edit - Tried to find the error, this is the one]
It was probably because the Allegro ROM was installed before it stopped working. So after that failed attempt at Flashing the Stock ROM - I don't get the battery indicator anymore and no matter what I try inside SP Flash Tool, it doesn't detect the device and the flashing process doesn't work. I tried installing and uninstalling all the MTK and Mediatek drivers but still not working. It shows up as MediaTek DA USB VCOM (Android) but it doesn't disappear, unless I remove the usb cable.
Before when I flashed the Allegro ROM and as seen across other youtube tutorials and guide, the device would show up for 2-4 seconds before disappearing and the SP Flash Tool would start working. Now it is just blank and the MediaTek DA USB VCOM (Android) doesn't go, no matter what.
Please, I would appreciate help. Since I don't have much knowledge regarding this. What must I do? I am depending on you guys.

Bump. Please someone help.

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.
