hello,
i rooted my Huawei and then used Root Tools to flash a font on it (don't remember which one it was).
Now my device seems to start, the hard buttons light up, but i get an infinite boot loop!
i can get into recovery, but i don't know how to get into fastboot.
I have already done a factory reset via recovery, but it keeps happening.
can anyone help me?
EDIT: also, since i cant get into the phone, i can't enable usb debugging to get to adb either... is there any way to force this or something?
Have you tried to wipe all phone-data and flash it with a rom?
Yeah, i've tried the flash all in recovery. i want the stock ROM though, do you have an update.zip for that? i'm pretty sure i can borrow a microSD card and put it on there.

So does it work with the rom you tried?
You can find the stock-rom on the huawei-device webpage if you haven't done a backup..
Edit: for ROMS check this:

you should install perfect recovery, you can find it here on the ideos x5 development section and then wipe data and apply the rom you wan't, i think that should fix your phone

well, i'd want it to be as stock as possible, in case it needs to go to service once... but as for the stock rom, is that the kernel-2.6.32-U8800-Froyo file on huaweis website? should i just rename that to update.zip and use it?
EDIT: i saw your edit now, when i have downloaded the right .zip file(in this case the norway retail one), i'm going to rename that to be update.zip and upgrade with it, am i right?
EDIT2: okay, i'm just going to follow the instructions in the zip folder one final question: how do i check my build number?
yes you can rename it, but it's not even necessary because you can choose the file (rom) you want to install later in perfect recovery. Or are you using something else then perfect recovery?
I have no idea about the instructions in the zip folder, because i haven't installed any stock roms on my phone, and can't understand what you need the build number for?
I suggest you to try to install that stock rom because you have nothing to lose and it's easy to wipe data again and try with other roms again..

Thanks! i downloaded the corresponding zip file for my carrier, unzipped, and just followed the instructions in the pdf file
The phone works great now! i am very happy now
This happened to me this morning!! Is there anyway to fix this in Recovery mode by mounting /system or something and rename the backup of the font back?
I don't want to delete everything off the phone! I have been customizing it for the past 2 or 3 weeks.. and was getting it exactly how I wanted it.. Don't want to do it all over again
EDIT: PHEW.. I fixed it. All you have to do is rename every font back to how it was originally (hope you have a backup) and set the permissions back to how they were originally CHMOD 644
If you need more help let me know, tell me which OS you have.. if you have Ubuntu / Linux I can help you.. no problem, as for windows.. I don't know
for windows the procedure is pretty much the same, i guess you used adb
That is what I love about ubuntu.. no I did not have to use adb. It automatically mounted the drives when I booted in recovery mode, then browsed system partition as root user (using natalius script.. or you can use a terminal) then set the permissions of the fonts to 644, make sure all the fonts are named exactly (CASE SENSITIVE).
Reboot and it will work.
Hello,
I was modifying build.prop, had made a backup and saved it in another folder in my phone, after modifying, I think it's because I've forgotten to set permissions or something, now I'm unable to bootup after rebooting.
Any idea how do I solve this? I've read online something about adp or something, but I've totally no clue about these.
Is there anyone who has a solution to this?
With sincerity
Xituc
If you did a backup and have TWRP, just delete the old build.prop in /system, move the backup there and set permissions. ;

System, data, internal sd, cache, what did you wipe? If you:
1. Wiped data/system :- you can only flash a new rom since you don't know ADB. Or flash stock via odin.
2. Internal sd :- that's it, flash stock firmware via odin.

Either reflash your custom ROM via TWRP (dirty flash and it'll keep your data etc) or do a stock flash via ODIN and start again. Can't remember if you can use ADB to restore your build.prop been an age since I used an N3.

My computer doesn't have my device in device manager when I've connected it, was unable to try using ADB earlier when I've tried, any idea why?
Anyway, can you direct me to a guide way I can do a stock flash via ODIN? I'm seeing so many threads in this forum but I've no idea which one is suitable for my phone.
Thanks!!

If you were using stock then you'll need to have a read around general and learn how to flash with ODIN. It's pretty straight forward, you can grab official ROMs from either here on XDA or Sam mobile/firmware. The link escapes my mind currently.
If you were using a custom ROM, download to your PC and use ADB Side load or download to your External SD Card and flash via recovery.
You can use THIS for ADB drivers, it's 15second ADB install and it should work for you.

Weird, computer won't have my phone's device show up...
EDIT:
In the development section, I see lots of roms, any idea which one should I download? I just want one which I can flash to and get my phone working again.
Thank you! I'm on SN-N9005 btw!
Can I contact you via skype or something btw?

For Stock you'll need the ROM for your region, this is quite important otherwise it causes headaches. For custom, it's entirely up to you, you can choose any TouchWiz based (stock look and feel - I personally recommend AllianceROM by @sparky b for TW based) Or AOSP based (Pure Android with no Samsung features - Temasek's ROM is stellar in this department and the new OMNIROM for the Note 3 will be superb once the dev has it sorted 100%, it's still being debugged and beta tested currently and dev tree's etc redone, stop by @jakew02's thread and have a read at where he is up to)
If you have the N9005 you'll be OK to use any custom ROM for that device. Just stay away from the Exynos (N900) ROMs as they won't work and will brick your phone.
I've recommended a couple of ROMs which are both Stable and feature filled plus one which will be great once fully flying. Other ROMs in the development section are just as great, however, I can only comment on the two I used solidly when I had my Note, and the one's I have ran on other devices. But ultimately it's your choice.
Hi all
Got an I9505 on O2 and since lollipop update it restarted a few times by itself. Now it keeps going into a loop where it will restart and the home screen loads, you can use it for about 20-30 seconds and it will reboot again!
Initially when I researched I though it was an app problem but couldn't find the culprit. Then I took it into the Samsung repair centre and they said it needed a clean flash by them. This didn't work and they fitted a new mother board and this still hasn't worked.
I can say that it has twice happened when the Wifi hasn't been working properly so I have turned it off but other than that I have no idea!
Also I have tried rebooting into safe mode but it still does it, aaarrrggghhhh!!!
Any ideas where I can go from here please?
P
Return to kitkat if you can. Otherwise use a custom rom. These would be my suggestions. Since Samsung's repair couldn't fix it, warranty should not be a problem anymore.
Thanks, I am more than willing to try a Custom ROM. Any recommendations? And how easy is it as never done before!

It's fairly easy. Depending on what S4 model you have. Some models have a locked bootloader and that makes the whole thing trickier.
This is what I did:
1) Root with CF-Auto-Root. Thread here.
2) Backup all my apps.
3) Install a custom recovery (TWRP). Download and instructions here.
4) Flash custom rom. Most roms have their own instructions.
You can skip 1 and 2 if you don't want to backup.
Installing a custom recovery can be done using Odin. I recommend TWRP since it's the only one I've used.
Lollipop GPE rom. I've used this rom and didn't have any issues. CM12 seems a bit faster, but the GPE was more stable and bug-free.
Thanks I tried to install the CM12 before you posted using the instructions there but it failed, I assume that it needs to be rooted.

You need a custom recovery to install any rom. It doesn't matter if it's rooted or not.
Get a custom recovery. Get all the necessary zip files (rom, gapps, etc). Place all the zip files on the external sd card. Boot into the custom recovery. Wipe /data, /cache and /dalvik-cache.
Go to Install (if on TWRP), go to the location where you saved the downloaded rom zip and select it. The swipe the slider to begin flashing. Afterwards flash the gapps zip. Reboot.
Also, don't use the recovery posted in the CM12 thread. It was specially made by the dev and will convert your file system to f2fs. What it basically means is that it will wipe your internal storage completely.

You don't have a custom recovery installed. That is probably the stock recovery. You can't flash a rom using the stock recovery.
You absolutely need a custom recovery if you want to flash a custom rom.
Custom recoveries are: TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project), CWM (ClockworkMod Recovery) and PhilZ Touch Recovery. Either one should work. But you necessarily need one.

Thanks I have installed TWRP, then it asked me to install Busybox which I did. Tried to Install from Zip and it went back to the original recovery and now when I am trying to restart the phone I just get messages telling me things have stopped working (Google play, settings etc etc) and a black screen!
Currently factory resetting and will try again

Follow the link I gave you. They have several instrunctions on how to install TWRP. You can install TWRP with Odin too.
Here, There are 3 ways to install. Use Odin. It doesn't require root and should be the easier one. Just UNTICK auto-reboot in Odin before flashing. Once it's done, turn the phone off and use the key combo to get into TWRP recovery.

I guess that's the CM12 logo. First boot after flashing always takes some time because the rom is configuring stuff.
If you still don't get into android, turn off the device and turn it on again. If you've done everything correctly there is no reason why it shouldn't boot.

Did as you said, in the end I tried flashing the other GPE ROM and that has worked but I do not really like it. Trying the Cynogen again by downloading direct to the SD card and not copying it over.

No problem. You could try a different build. Or you could try a CM12 based rom. SaberMod worked fine for me. And it's the closest to the actual CM12 you can get.

Cheers, I have CM12 up and running now. Downloaded the files straight to the SD card and they worked. Seems OK but might try others, how do I go about trying SaberMod, do I need to flash that? Sorry to keep asking what are no doubt pretty obvious questions but I'm pretty new to this!

SaberMod is a rom. SaberMod CM12.1.
They are very similar. The difference is how they tackle optimizations.
Yes, you will have to flash it. But you can also stick with normal CM12 if you don't have any issues.
The google search box from the home screen or the recents?
You can change the launcher to get rid of it from the home screen.
To remove it from the recents there is an option somewhere in the settings.
Dear XDA,
I screwed up... I think my device is now soft bricked.... :crying:
It all started good on a sunny saturday. I thought this was a good day to try another custom rom. Namely Codename Phoenix.
My device was already rooted so i started with upgrading my TWRP to the latest Blu_Spark TWRP 3.2.1. After flashing the recovery i continued with the ROM. It all went downhill from there....
The install finished and i booted my device. Knowing this could take a while i got into the shower thinking it would finish when i got back. But when i got back it was still booting. Knowing the first boot can take a while so I let it be. After an hour or so it was still stuck on the google logo and the weather and my mood changed for the worse.
I figured something in the process went wrong and tried to boot into recovery. That worked so I thought 'Cool, let's fix it there'. But the recovery was encrypted so i couldn't get to my data. Normally you put in your pincode and it decrypts your phone. This was not the case.... I couldn't put in my pincode so decrypting was out of the question.
Luckily ADB was still working so I downloaded the original Oxygen OS rom and tried to side-load it... This got stuck on 47% for no reason at all. Phone had 100% battery and didn't time-out..
I was really confused, but I let the device do it's thing and maybe things would work out... I was wrong. Everything was worse. Because i tried installing the original firmware it removed the custom recovery....
So now i have a device with no OS and I can't get into recovery. Luckily there is a unbrick tool for OnePlus 5. Following those steps i got stuck on the part that it does not show in my device-manager.
Currently i'm really grumpy and have no idea how to fix this.
I humbly ask for advice. Is this solvable or do i have a wasted OnePlus 5?
Thanks in advance,
Lennard
can you reboot to bootloader?
if yes, you can flash original or custom recovery...

Don't worry! Your device is safe. At most, you'll be required to wipe your data.
Try using the official twrp recovery here:

If this doesn't work, let me know.

Thanks for these words! That's a big relieve
With your link I managed to install TWRP through fastboot. So now i have a custom recovery. The current problem is that my data is encrypted and I cannot decrypt it. There is no option to fill in a password since there is no OS that requires a password. So it's sort of a neverending cycle . Although fastboot, recovery and sideload should work now.
The thing is, previously I tried installing the original firmware and that failed at 47%. So i'm not sure what to do now.
I tried installing 'codeworkx universal twrp 3.2.1-0 recovery' since he seems to have fixed the encrypt issue. But when I tried sideloading the file it says "Zip file is corrupt!". So no succes there yet.
To be precise, this is the threat for Codeworkx Universal TWRP : https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...overy-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-oxygenos-5-0-t3725723
And i downloaded and tried installing: twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img
I was thinking about downloading the latest Codename Phoenix ROM, but when I try to download the latest release the file is name "Codename-Phoenix-NOS-8.1-oneplus5t-20180303.zip". That implies it's only for the 5t and not for the 5. So that could be my original problem? That i downloaded the wrong ROM?
That aside.
Should I try to get the download link for CNP and download the latest release for the OP5 and install that.
Or
Should i try to install the original firmware. Reset everything and start over from the beginning (unlocking, rooting, etc..)
Thanks again for all the help

Nice to hear that!
To be clear, does the TWRP decrypt you data? When you click install in TWRP, is it a bunch of randomly named files?
I think you should go ahead with installing CNP, you shouldn't have any problems with it now that you've got the correct version.
Good luck!

Select wipe
Select advanced wipe
Clear dalvik and cache
Go back
Select wipe
Click "Format Data"
Type in yes
Go back
Select wipe
Swipe to factory reset
Reboot recovery
Transfer the ROM from PC to phone
Install it

Hmm, the installation should be a succes. But when i tried to reboot and start up the OS / System it just reboots into TWRP.... ? It's sort of boot looping into recovery.
I tried installing a couple of times with and without wiping dalvik/cache/system.
Could the install file not be complete?
On a side note, my data is not encrypted

Did you factory reset by going into wipe>swipe to factory reset?
If not then do that and flash it

But of course! Already did that. But i'm not sure if it shows or not. Tried clicking multiple times on the thanks button but it doesn't highlight. It should do that right?

Hello, idk if im doing something wrong, but recently, i get enough of custom roms and just wanted to get back to miui, but, every time i flash miui from custom orange fox recovery, it does not feel smooth, feels laggy and sometimes even freeze for couple of seconds, tried several build of miui including latest official, wiped everything, formated data, nothing helped. Can someone help me to get back to working miui? thanks

You can flash it again after that, just make a backup in your pc, your data, because fastboot will wipe everything.

There is another simple way for flashing via fastboot, open the fastboot rom file copy all the files from there ,go to the file of Xiaomi drivers open and paste , than put your phone in fastboot mode and connect it via USB, find the file named " flash all " double click , done .
