I have an Axon 7 128Gb which some years back I flashed to Android 8. It was all a bit hit and miss but it worked fine. Then I upgraded the phone and this has sat in my drawer for a while so I thought I'd try to sell it on eBay.
I tried a factory reset and now I'm stuck.
I think it's called the FRP loop. It wants a Google account which was previously used on the phone but just loops when I give it one.
It isn't recognised when I attach to my computer.
I have searched and I found loads of ideas but nothing yet has fixed it.
The boot screen is unlocked so I can load something from SD card but I really need some help with what to load - a link would do.
Would appreciate it if someone could respond - but please bear in mind I am not experienced at this (but always willing to learn!!)

I'm hoping somebody here can help, because I'd hate to have to get rid of a device that I really love...
Used Helmi's WM6 (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...angel_WM6_Home) to upgrade from WM2003SE and everything was working beautifully!
I was absolutely LOVING the new software until my device just stopped accepting the passcode that I had been using for 2 years. What I don't understand is I had to use the passcode a few times after the upgrade and all was fine. What could have happened for it to suddenly change by itself (because I know it wasn't me)?
Someone at the PocketPCAddicts forum suggested that I locate an original factory ROM to wipe out everything on the device and try again from scratch. I've searched the web looking for such a beast and can't find one (since the manufacturer/carrier no longer support it).
Can someone here help?

Had the same problem...
Hi Debbie,
Same thing happened when I upgraded from WM2003 to the WM6 ROM. Unfortunately there was no solution and I just ended up disabling the password to ensure I never got stuck.
If you ever stumble upon a solution that works for you, I'd be happy to hear about it!
I'm about to try out the latest WM6.11 and hope it will have that particular issue solved - I'll let you know.

if you press and hold power+record+camera the same time and then reset you get to the boot loader.
you will see the 3 options, which i have fogotten, but if you put in the same options as instructions tell you after flashing a new rom, then push the mail button i believe, it will format you memory and you will be able to get back in again.
i had the same problem where i was locked out and i did that and just sync'd again to get back to my positon prior getting locked out.
hope that helps
Thanks, I will try it again.
Should I be able to simply repeat those steps, or should I start from the beginning? I don't have the device with me right now.
Thanks again,
Debbie
follow the instructions after the flashing the rom stage all the way to the end.
you choose to format memory on the gray screen with 3 options.
i flashed the wm6.1(5.2.19716) several days ago, and tested in several situations, my BA can remember the pw now, thanks for the hardwork of rom maker.
Thanks! (Now Internet Problem)
I got it to finally work, after getting a 3rd hand to help in the key combination/timing.
Only problem now is that my SX66 no longer connects to the Internet. Tried every setting/CAB I could find and no dice. AT&T tech and advanced tech support didn't help and I was told that the OS may have corrupted the connectivity.
Should I try loading another WM6 version?
Thanks again,
Debbie
I was in the process of taking my Nexus 7 back to stock yesterday it started giving errors from fastboot. My device is completely wiped clean. Can't boot into recovery since there isnt one, there is no system to boot into, etc. I tried to install 4.2.2 via the toolkit and manually from fastboot and I keep getting errors. The most recent one is no such device or address found. The only the only thing that I have been successful in doing this entire time is oem lock and unlock. I read somewhere else that someone had a similar issue and that fixed it. I have tried every different port on my laptop and every different cable I can find. I haven't used the OEM ASUS cable since i cant find it, but I think it is at work so that the last one I can think of.
Can anyone offer any help or solutions? I've had the worst luck int he last three days with my devices. I've never had a potential bricking issue since my G1 and now i can't seem to avoid them. Any help is greatly appreciated. I can provide screenshots of the errors if that would help as well.
EDIT
Turns out it wasn't a bad device or any of the million cables. It was a bad laptop. I was finally able to get the drivers to install on my win8 desktop and it all went as it should.
Hey guys,
I've bought my MX4 Pro almost a year ago, but decided only now to ask for your help. Hope you'll be able to guide me to fixing the several problems i have.
First of all, phone came with Flyme 4.5.7I and right from the start there were some features not working. Most important, the fingerprint screen unlock isnt working. After capturing my fingerprint, when i try to enable it to unlock screen it just takes me back to the home screen.
Another issue is getting sometimes (it happens randomly) a no sim error. Sometimes restarting is enough, sometimes i need to take out the sim card and insert it back.
Ever since i've tried to update firmware, hoping it would solve my problems. Nothing has worked.
Dowloaded the update.zip (no matter which version) and placed it in root directory. When i try to open it with the document app i get two options, view and extract. Can't update. Also starting the phone using volume+ and power button (update screen) has always produced the same results: Firmware corrupt. Tried doing it with clearing data, without that, no difference. Tried with a .bin file, same thing.
As far as i know the bootloader is locked, and i remember checking if the device is properly rooted and IT IS NOT.
So, the more android savvy people here can help? I'm lost and i really enjoyed the phone so far, but i dont really know what to do from now on. Is it a faulty device? (This would be the worse, since the phone was bought from China).
I can provide any additional details if needed.
Thanks in advance
P.S. I remember trying every tutorial/solution out there, nothing has seemed to work. I also may be dumb, not sure.
I have an SAMSUNG s8 SM-G950F which I purchased threw Amazon as new from Italy, I live in the UK.
I decided to try rooting it Following these steps
1st of all I tried using Odin3.V3.10.6 and using CF-Auto-Root-dreamlte-dreamltexx-smg950f.tar.md5
Al this seemed to do was factory reset my phone it still worked fine but was not rooted.
so I tried the method below, from that site, wont let me post links so took the . out
galaxys8root com galaxy-s8-root how-to-root-galaxy-s8-or-s8-plus-exynos
When it game time to to do the 2nd key combination (step11) for the twrp, to load the boot loader i missed it, and my phone was stuck, at boot screen and would do nothing, i tired to use Odin to write the file again it never happened.
I did some more goggling saw that web site is out of date and there was a new version of twrp, downloaded twrp-3.2.1-0-dreamlte.img.tar and tried using odin to flash that, still was not having it, still stuck at the screen. Figured out how to get my phone back into usb upload mode and tried again, and then i kept getting the message that their was no P part partition and it failed.
Tried this a few times did some more goggling, saw the thing about doing it letting it fail, reboot the phone and do it straight away this did not work with the twrp-3.2.1-0-dreamlte.img.tar, but did work with CF-Auto-Root-dreamlte-dreamltexx-smg950f.tar.md5 file.
This let my phone boot again, and was rooted, but this caused me issues with running apps and I saw there was no way to hide the cf auto root so decided to just reset my phone.
This worked but now my phone fails the Safety test and i can not use apps that need it....
So was wondering if any one could advise me what my best course of action is, can i put my phone back to stock some how so it will pass the saftynet again or do I need to try the twrp so i can use magika and hide the fact its rooted?
Thanks in advance, included some screen shots from the software screen in case it helps..
If you really want help or have time to help me, you must know the full story
Guys please, I want your help, I am very, very tired of this problem
I had rooted my SM205F
I put it on "ODIN" and it really worked
And I rooted successfully
Now there is a problem
When I restart the phone or turn it off
Or when it runs out of battery and put it on charge
Suddenly back to Download Mode
And when I restart my phone, the same thing happens, which is going back to the Download Mode again
I thought for a while and said, "Ok, let me put the root file again and flash it, I think I'll get out of this mess." I did this and it worked, then I restarted my phone and then found myself also in the same place..When I put any file it really works, I am still in the same place and the only solution is that I am working completely software for the device
This means that I always delete everything on the device
This went on for two days and I couldn't bear it anymore
So I found another way to root
Which is to install "TWRP" recovery on the phone and root it instead of the "ODIN" program, and I did that today
And I succeeded in making a root
But I found out that I was still stuck too
I tried to find a way out by using "TWRP" or writing code, but it didn't help
I don't want to delete everything on my phone and do the same routine every day. This makes me hate my phone and hate something called root.
And I came here because I heard that this place is wonderful and that there are people who help each other solve other people's problems
This is a beautiful thing
Therefore, I want your help and benefit in order to overcome this problem
I have no problem getting stuck here
The problem is that I don't want to delete my phone data let me say for the 11th time
If you have a solution .. please help ..
Right now I'm still stuck, but I'm not going to do anything. I want your help
Thanks.
