Unsuccessful android firmware does not turn on the brick. How to revive the "brick" Android

There are several reasons why the device on the Andorid OS can stop turning on: incorrect flashing, unsuccessful attempt to acquire ROOT rights, as well as any actions aimed at changing the system data of the OS. But all this in most cases is solved by a regular flashing, so I’ll tell you how to flash Android if it does not turn on.

Solution to the problem

The problem can be solved, unless the bootloader is touched. You can make sure that it is operational by pressing the “Power” button: the display should at least somehow react. It can be a lying robot, Android, or just an exclamation point; all this will show that the problem is in the system, and that means - in 90% of cases - there is nothing to worry about.

Note: There were times when the display did not respond at all to power on. Then it’s worth connecting the device to the PC and trying to press the “Power” or “Power” + “Vol–” button: if the computer sees a connected new device, then there are also chances to flash a dead Android.

Recovery using the manufacturer's program

One of the simplest options is to return the gadget to working through software from the manufacturer. Not everyone has this functionality, but the LG campaign has provided such an option. To do this, you need:

If custom Recovery CWM is installed

I will also show how you can flash Android brick, if you have access to. Let me remind you: to get into it, you need to hold down "Power" + "Volume -".

If this mode starts, then you should:

Via custom Windows application for firmware

Also, if Android does not turn on after the firmware, it can be reflashed using one of the unofficial flashers for the PC. Each company has its own program and there may be its own execution steps, but they are all very similar.

For LG use KDZ Updater.

For Samsung - Odin.

For HTC - Android SDK Platform Tools.

Execution steps

Install the necessary flasher on the PC.
Download the firmware for the desired model.
Run the program.
Connect the gadget to the PC with a cord and press "Power" + "Vol -", a new device will be found in the window.
Through the utility, select the file with Android and click "Start".
Wait until the end of the procedure.

Thank you in advance

Hello. Can you start the firmware mode? That is, you need to start the firmware mode (Download), connect the device to the computer and flash it using a program, for example, ODIN. The firmware must be installed official service, without root. You tried to root your device and got hemorrhoids, these consequences must be taken into account before proceeding with some risky actions. I hope for the future you took this into account and will no longer experiment. Regarding firmware - you need to look for them on the forum w3bsit3-dns.com. There are also instructions, and drivers and firmware programs, and user reviews. In general, look for the desired firmware, put the device into firmware mode and sew. If you can’t do it yourself, then bring it in for repair. You simply do not have other options.

V-ANDROIDE Team 01/13/2016 20:34

Hello. Pour the firmware into the internal memory of the device (if possible). If not, then only firmware using a computer. In this case, you will need to download the official service firmware on the PC, the drivers for your device (install on the same PC) and the firmware program. Firmware can be single-file or multi-file. It’s best to set multi-file, but if there are none, then single-file is also possible (they basically do not differ in anything, only in multi-file it is possible to select the firmware of individual components, such as a modem and so on). As a rule, devices are sewn by the ODIN program. To do this, you need to enter the “Download” mode (firmware mode) on the device being flashed, connect the device to the PC in this mode. The ODIN program should detect your phone as COM1 or COM2 ... Now drive the firmware into the program (the path to the firmware should be as simple as possible). In doing so, remember that the ODIN program must be run with administrator privileges. More detailed instructions, drivers and firmware are on the w3bsit3-dns.com forum. Look specifically for your device model. There will be all the necessary information, files, instructions and so on.

Hello! I have a prestigio-branded phone. When I turn on, a black screen appears and the phone turns off immediately. I gave it in for repair several times. The phone will work for 2 weeks and again the same thing. Tell me what to do?

V-ANDROIDE team 02.09.2016 12:09

Hello. Buy a new phone of some other brand, for example, Samsung or LG. There are practically no such problems with these brands. In your case, most likely, the matter is in the firmware. I would advise you to return to the service center where your phone was repaired and report that 2 weeks had passed and the phone broke again, what kind of repair. Or try to flash the device yourself. I won’t tell you where to find the firmware, just write the model of your phone in the search engine and ask for a request, for example, “Download firmware for Prestigio **** smartphone” (indicate model instead of asterisks). Everything, then read what you find.

Hello, saviors! Please, help! There is a phone LG L Fino D295. A few months ago, the firmware flashed. I asked again. Worked perfectly. BUT two months later flew again, again asked again. And today, a perfectly working phone itself suddenly turned off and does not turn on anymore. No reaction to the button on. Even to connect to a charger or computer. The battery works (checked on the same phone). I cleaned the contacts. I put a working battery, it does not work. A friend (who keeps his small service center for the repair of such devices) said that it is necessary to flash. But how to flash if even the computer does not see it. That is, the phone does not start the firmware mode. While holding the volume up button, I connect to the computer via the USB cable. Zero reaction. In the Windows device manager, there was a new device without drivers. I had such data USB \\ VID_05C6 & PID_9008. Googled, downloaded the driver. (Called ALKATEL). But still no reaction. Please help what to do!
P.s: When connecting to another computer in the task manager, in the “Other devices” section, there is a new device called “QHSUSB_BULK”. Has USB ID \\ VID_05C6 & PID_9008

V-ANDROIDE Team 04/13/2016 08:49

Hello. On the computer, you need to install drivers specifically for your phone. What you downloaded may not be drivers for your phone. As a rule, such drivers in the name have the designation “USBdriversLG” or something like that. Try to remove from your computer everything that is connected with your phone (drivers, programs, connections, and so on). And then plug in your phone and try to find the drivers you need. If you have a friend who repairs, then why can't you turn to him? Remotely difficult to say and decide. You need to watch the device itself, try different options. It is possible that your phone can no longer be repaired. According to the symptoms you described, he is “Dead” and there's nothing to be done. It is necessary to disassemble, ring the tracks and chains, watch, maybe the button goes off somewhere, or maybe the motherboard is “dead” or something else (maybe the CPU). So you can guess for a very long time. It is best to contact a service center.

Tablet Onda V819. Nowhere is there an official firmware, even on the off site it disappeared. What to do?

V-ANDROIDE Team 05/25/2016 12:52

Hello. How did you diagnose that the phone has a broken preloader? In general, most likely, you will have to reflash the phone. If you yourself do not know how to “sew”, then carry it in for repair. I have no other advice for you.

Hello. In general, devices from Smsung are flashed using Samsung Kies. No drivers are needed for this. But, Kies will skip only the official firmware. I’ll add on my own that Samsung provides pretty strong support and you should understand that the original official firmware is much more stable and reliable than third-party firmware from left-wing developers, especially it’s not worth installing Cyanogen firmware. Believe my experience, native official firmware for Samsungs work most stable, I personally checked it more than once. Well, namely, with the search for drivers, I will not help you, sorry. look for yourself.

V-ANDROIDE Team 06/01/2016 20:53

Hello. If you can’t find the firmware you need, then bring it in for repair, since in your case, as I understand from your description of the problem, there is only one thing left - to reflash. But, since you can’t find the firmware, carry it for repair. Sorry, there are no other options. I won’t help you find the firmware, but I don’t have such software available.

V-ANDROIDE Team 06/01/2016 20:56

Since you cannot find the necessary software (firmware), then contact the service center for help. Other ways to solve your problem, besides firmware, I do not see. Therefore, you simply have no other options. I can’t help you in finding the right firmware, since I need other data (except for the name of the gadget), also, not all firmware works fine. All this must be checked, and for this you need your tablet, so that I personally can work with it. I cannot help your problem remotely. Therefore, the conclusion - carry in repair.

Hello. Maybe a password is needed for a SIM card? That is, some PIN code? Or is it the phone that is blocked? I do not know the password, but the reset should have helped. If the requirement to enter a password remains, then most likely it is the password from the SIM card. Try to pull out the SIM card and turn on the phone, will it require a password? If so, I don’t even know what to advise you. If you can’t flash through a PC, then bring it in for repair. Read this article. Perhaps in it you will find the answer.

Hello. This means that the firmware (or the bootloader) has flown. In any case, you need to reflash your tablet. If you can’t reflash the tablet yourself at home, then take it for repair. There are no other solutions to this problem.

I have a fly evo tech 4 phone, after frequent use of charging, the battery swelled up, noticed this, after it started to discharge immediately, it took another 2 weeks and probably then it turned off and did not charge, then I pulled out the battery and ordered a new one, it went on for a month and the phone was untouched. After I inserted a new battery and put it on charge, it turns on until the charging icon and goes out and continues until I turn it off, while the phone does not charge, I tried to leave it for the night. Charge the frog, did not turn on. I turned on the charger, and clamped on, after the brand logo appeared and was cut down again, when connected to a computer, it then sees or does not see, in the interval of about 2 seconds. Is there anything you can do? Or just for repair?

It very well raises the bricks samsung, lg, htc, xiaomi, zopo and some other then the model works online. it finds the driver (and under any mode.) the main thing is that the computer picks up the body at least somehow. even usb bulk 9008.

Hello. Did you install the drivers? In order for the computer to be able to determine the connected device normally, drivers must be installed for that connected device. Without them, the computer will not be able to properly detect the phone (tablet).

V-ANDROIDE Team 08/10/2016 21:30

Hello. If the device does not charge, this may mean several problems. First, you need to check the battery. The battery controller may have burned out or the battery may have run out of life. In this case, the device will not charge and, accordingly, will not turn on. Secondly, you need to check the connector into which you connect the charger. Perhaps the connector cable is frayed or the connector itself is loose and charging simply does not go because of the lack of contact. It is necessary to conduct a visual inspection, try to move the charger connector in the phone connector. It may also require disassembling the phone and visual inspection of the loops. Thirdly, the problem may be in the tablet itself. Although, this is unlikely, because, even when the firmware flies, the phone must be charged in the off state. It is also worth checking the charger itself (try charging another device with it), and try charging another phone with your phone.

V-ANDROIDE Team 08/10/2016 21:30

Hello. Here is a great article that explains everything. Most likely, the bootloader or the firmware itself has flown. It is treated - by flashing. If you yourself are afraid or doubt your abilities, then it is better to immediately carry in for repair.

Hello. And you can connect the tablet to the PC and see if the screenshots are made normal or not? That is, they made a screen (as you described), connected a tablet to the PC and see if the screen is normal (the screen and all the icons are visible and everything is as expected), then the cable from the screen is probably damaged. The second option - the firmware itself may be buggy. did you reset to factory settings or just tried? If you didn’t, then do it. If you did it but it didn’t help, then you have to reflash - (). If you can’t flash it yourself, then bring it in for repair.

I tried to make a hard reset, I was shown a dead android. I tried to reflash, but every time I downloaded the firmware to the phone, the computer stopped seeing it (the phone) and gave an error. I think that maybe it’s not the firmware at all, but what do you think?

Hello. I think that in your case, it is better to repair immediately. The fact is that you can try to flash it. But, I will not set out the exact instructions for you, it must be sought on the Internet. Yes, and it will be difficult for you to figure it out. Therefore, it is better to take it to a repair immediately.

V-ANDROIDE team 08.25.2016 11:15

Hello. The thing may be that the phone needs to be put into flashing mode. In addition, drivers for the tablet you want to flash need to be installed on the computer. How to switch to firmware mode - you need to read the instructions on the Internet (or read the instructions (manual) for the tablet). As a rule, the Power + Volume up buttons are clamped simultaneously and hold until the device reboots. Sometimes you also need to add the Home button (but this is different for different devices). This design doesn’t work the same for all tablets. That is, you try to do so, if it does not work out, then you need to look for instructions on the Internet. I will not help remotely in this matter, since I just need to pick up a tablet and try different options. Drivers are also downloading on the Internet.

V-ANDROIDE team 08.25.2016 11:15

V-ANDROIDE Team 09/08/2016 11:17

Hello. Reset to factory settings. And you should no longer do root privileges, as this greatly affects stability. Please note that you open access to system files not only for yourself, but also for applications that can change system configurations, due to which various failures, conflicts between software and so on occur. All this inactively affects the stability of the system. It can reach the gathering of the firmware and the failure of the phone. As a result, expensive repairs.

V-ANDROIDE Team 09/08/2016 11:18

Hello. I can’t tell you everything remotely and show you. Here you need to clearly demonstrate what to teach. Therefore, either try to look for video tutorials yourself (maybe articles specifically on your phone), communicate on forums and so on. But, I do not recommend you try to flash it yourself, since there is a rather high risk of completely disabling the phone. I recommend that you contact those who have experience in flashing phones and who can flash your phone. If there are no such acquaintances, then carry it in for repair. It will be easier, faster and more profitable, since independent repair attempts, as a rule, lead to even more expensive repairs.

Hello. The firmware flashed. If you yourself know how to flash, then flash. You need to flash it using a computer and appropriate software. Install firmware only official service. If you don’t know how to flash it yourself or not, then bring it to a service center.

V-ANDROIDE Team 09/08/2016 11:19

Hello. The firmware flashed. You did the right thing that you tried to flash. But, specify how exactly you tried to download the firmware? You need to flash only through a PC. Of course, you can install custom firmware (flash through recovery), but I highly recommend not doing this. It is best to install official firmware. If you yourself know how to flash, then flash. You need to flash it using a computer and appropriate software. Install firmware only official service. If you don’t know how to flash it yourself or not, then bring it to a service center.

V-ANDROIDE Team 09/08/2016 11:19

Hello. Not. You need to activate the firmware mode. And this is done by pressing and holding the Power + Volume up (+) button. If the button does not work, then it is necessary to disassemble and clean the contacts or change the button. Maybe there just the cable went away, maybe the contacts were oxidized (or dusty). In general, you need to disassemble the device and repair the button. Only after that already try to flash. In your case, I recommend attributing to repair. You yourself are unlikely to be able to repair anything at home. And an independent attempt can lead to even greater problems.

hello. Which connector does not work? I think that even if they don’t want to take in service centers, you can hardly do anything yourself. In your case, it is better to buy a new gadget (and do not take cheap Chinese devices). It’s better to pay once, but you will get a great gadget that will last you a long time and without problems. Believe my experience, brands are not just more expensive than others, there is something to pay for. In extreme cases, I can recommend from Chinese manufacturers Xiaomi or Meizu. These are two fairly high-quality manufacturers who have not had time to raise prices yet - this is if you want to save money and at the same time buy a high-quality gadget.

V-ANDROIDE Team 09/21/2016 19:43

Maybe you are trying to install the wrong firmware, maybe the firmware itself is buggy, maybe something is wrong on the hardware level. There are a lot of options. Better contact a service center.

V-ANDROIDE Team 09/21/2016 19:43

Hello. I highly recommend not installing custom firmware, especially on branded devices (LG, Samsung, and so on). These models have very strong support and official firmware works most stably and efficiently. Therefore, there is only one way out for you - to upgrade your LG to the official service firmware, which will work perfectly. And in the future, never even try to install firmware from Cyanogen or from other supporters of firmware-business - you won’t get into trouble. Regarding the firmware, here is the article -. If you can’t do it yourself, it’s better to carry it for repair.

Hello. Something you did wrong, which is why the firmware loader crashed (or the firmware itself was deleted). In your case, you have to flash the phone. The firmware must be installed official service. If you yourself can’t find the firmware or are afraid to flash it, then it’s better to immediately take it for repair.

V-ANDROIDE Team 10/06/2016 21:57

Hello. Not. Just save the photo to your computer or flash drive. Sew the phone, and then upload the photos (from a PC or flash drive) back to the phone’s memory. Everything is obvious and quite simple. And about your question - at the time of firmware, the entire internal memory of the device is formatted and overwritten right up to the file system. Therefore, absolutely all information is deleted.

Hello. In any case, you need to enter the firmware menu or the recovery menu (if you are flashing files in the root of the memory). So for starters you will have to repair the volume buttons, and only then try to flash. If you can’t do it yourself, then there is only one way out - bring it for repair. I do not see other options.

V-ANDROIDE Team 10/06/2016 21:58

Hello. Of course, the phone will not turn on. After all, you completely formatted the memory, while deleting absolutely everything, including the firmware. Your task is to put the phone in the mode for flashing through a computer or enter the recovery. To get started, check out this article. Here is general information about flashing options. If you can’t put the phone in the desired mode (in recovery or in the “Dowload” mode), then bring it in for repair, since otherwise the phone will not be able to flash.

"Hello. Where and how do you go? Specify a question. How to enter recovery mode on your tablet? Try this: 1. Turn off the tablet. At the same time, make sure that the battery is fully charged or connect the tablet to the network.
2. Switch to Recovery mode by pressing a combination of specific buttons. Since different tablet manufacturers offer different keyboard shortcuts, I’ll give you some of the most common keyboard shortcuts to enter the recovery menu:
   simultaneously holding both “volume” and “power” keys;
   simultaneous clamping of one of the "volume" keys and the "power" key;
   simultaneously hold down one of the volume buttons, the Home and Power buttons (button to turn on the device).
The buttons are held until recovery mode appears on the display. If you do everything correctly, then go into recovery mode. I repeat once again - see that the battery is at least 75% charged.
“

Hello. I don’t even know how to help. I don’t exactly tell you anything remotely. Even if the firmware does not become. I think that it is not worth wasting time and effort. Moreover, an independent attempt to flash the device led to even greater problems. It is better to carry it immediately for repair if it is still being repaired. Possibly, first you need to flash the menu recovery. If you were flashing through the recovery, then specify whether you were flashing the recovery menu itself (it has changed - that is, after flashing the menu itself has changed appearance)? If yes, then first, you need to return the recovery to its original state, and then try to install the firmware itself.

V-ANDROIDE Team 10/19/2016 20:09

Hello. Did you install native firmware or custom firmware? The fact is that custom firmware, as a rule, is flashed along with the recovery menu. In this case, there may be different failures. Try to find the official service firmware and install it. Moreover, it is necessary to flash through a PC and preferably multi-file firmware (if there is none, then single-file, but still via PC). If even the official service firmware does not “go in”, then carry it in for repair. I have no other advice. Perhaps the problem is at the hardware level. Maybe you should try formatting the internal memory. But, with this you need to be extremely careful.

I was flashing the phone on 5.0, everything was successful. After an unsuccessful attempt to reset the settings (in the army), the system does not boot, but the backlight just lights up when it is turned on. When I go to twrp to reset the settings, it says failed.
I downloaded the official firmware on the Sd card in zip, but I don’t remember how to reinstall it (
But the computer does not see the computer, even in the workshop, everything is in order with the input.

Hello. Recently brought a flash copy of the iphone 6 mtk 6572. I downloaded the driver, installed it. After that I was going to flash. I turned off the phone and connected it to my computer. And in the end, it says that the device is not recognized. As a result, the phone stopped turning on and responded to something. Can you recommend something?

Dmitry 11/03/2016 17:54

Hello!) After the unsuccessful firmware of my smartphone (meizu m3s mini), it stopped showing signs of life, I connect the sound to the computer, but after three seconds there is another sound (mute) and everything is repeated again. How can I bring it back to life? (I wore it in the SC, but there, probably, the man is poorly versed in phones, he told me that he did not find anything on the Internet)
I will be very grateful for the help))

hello, after getting root rights on my Android 4.4, the Prestigio Multipad wize 3008 tablet began to delete all data after each reboot, but today it completely stopped and turned off, after trying to turn on the screen with the tablet name, the recovery started, clicked on Wipe data / factory reset after what did the removal begin, but even there it hung, what should I do?

hello! I have a samsung galaxy note2 gt-n7100 through the settings I did a recovery and reset, the phone turned off and now doesn’t turn on, it shows only the teamwin splash screen, blinks, and everything is endless. I'm trying to reflash through Odin, but something does not work. Help!!!

Hello. These are Chinese features. You can try using the Flash Tool to try to reflash the preloader. And you can take it from another device with the same chip (CPU). Here you yourself read the forums. Better yet, take it to a service center.

V-ANDROIDE Team 11/17/2016 10:52

Hello. Perhaps you just need to put the phone in firmware mode (Download). In this case, you need to install the appropriate driver on the computer, so that the system could recognize the phone. If the computer even then refuses to see the phone, then it is possible that the problem is more serious. In this case, you need to flash the recovery menu, and it is possible to change the preloader. Preloader is a firmware that launches the “Download” system (I don’t know how to explain, so that it would be clear). In general, here you need a really experienced wizard who can reanimate your phone. Try contacting another service center or surf the forums. Information on the Internet is full.

V-ANDROIDE Team 11/17/2016 10:53

Hello. The bootloader file and, most likely, the firmware itself was corrupted. Therefore, you will have to reflash your tablet. If you decide to independently try to flash, then first read this article -. If I'm not mistaken, then your tablet is flashed through the Flash Tool. If you can’t flash it yourself or are afraid, then bring it to a service center.

Elisha 11/20/2016 17:18

Hello, I have flashed my phone to root more than once and everything is fine, recently the phone switched to the official firmware with the updated android and everything is normal, the cable was not damaged then, I want to flash again on the root, I found all the drivers and firmware, but as you understand the cable is damaged.
Attention is the question of whether something will happen to the phone when flashing with a damaged cable, and the charging goes on without interruption and it charges as before, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 NEO phone (SM-N7505), the cable is original, he is 3 years old (like phone)
Thanks in advance)))

Thank you very much, I brought the body back to life (Lg L65 \\ d285 dual, Android 4.4.2) using the LG Mobile Support Tool. After a non-immeasurable deletion of the system file, the body refused to start anything, rebooting worsened the situation to the endless launch of the brick. Hard reset did not help (including the body clamped vol - and power after the logo appeared, released power for one second and again clamped the standard reseta menu. After two times YES, he deleted something there and refused to install and again the infinity “Lg, life is Good” Panic !! There was no desire to reflash. After installing the LG Mobile Support Tool application, I followed the instructions, but there’s a slight deviation Connecting a brick to my computer is charging, I launch it as it was told through power + Vol -, the program does not see the body, I started it in the usual way, most running “endless download program saw him and began to swing in the software and put the body, ignoring the eternal reboot everything went well). Thanks again for the post, it helped a lot, otherwise only the firmware ((

Hello. Help me understand what happened to the Lenovo a328 phone? During the normal operation of the phone, errors of absolutely all applications with inscriptions of the type "an error occurred in the Mail application" popped up, and so with all applications. While I close the errors by clicking on OK, they pop up again, and so on in a circle. Resetting to factory settings does not help. Resetting with archiving and without archiving does not help. Applications are not deleted! Hard reset also does not help, everything is in place, all with errors that can be closed forever. My husband tried to reflash, now it does not turn on at all. They did not translate into flashing mode, they installed the firmware when connected via usb. What now? Where did the errors of absolutely all applications come from? Thanks for the answer.

Hello everyone, my husband ran into a problem: the megaphone login + booted up for a long time (about 3 minutes) after loading, not a single application worked errors popped up. I tried to reset it to the factory settings - I got an error E: Unable mount ‘/ cache’ After loading it stopped working at all. I tried to reflash through FT, supposedly it is sewn but the effect is zero. It turned out that when connecting via usb to the computer, the connection is periodically (approximately 2 seconds) lost and reappears. It makes no difference, with or without a battery. (The smartphone appears and disappears in the device manager, and so on in a circle.) Accordingly, it is not possible to flash. What can you do about it?

In the evening, when I tried to open the vk application, the error “application stopped, send a report” popped up. I rebooted the phone and a similar error occurred when the application was reopened. I reboot again, and the window opens almost on the whole screen "Google services are stopped, send a report", click cancel, the window disappears and appears again. And so on to infinity. I reboot again, the “Android update” window appears, although I did not allow or update any updates. After that, it freezes, the screen goes blank and it does not turn on anymore. When you press the power, vibration occurs and nothing more. When you press power + home + volume key - downloading is opened. When trying to reflash the system, the following happens: one sees the phone but when you press the start, initalzation is displayed ... and that’s it! that I just didn’t try, the ports are original, the cord is original and not the original, I tried it on another computer, changed the version one, tried to install the recovery, the result is the same initalzation ...

Are there any options to revive it? Or did the bobik die?

Surely, many owners of devices running on the Android platform have heard about the problem of "bricking" the smartphone. And some inexperienced experimenters are familiar with this situation firsthand. What to do in this case? How to get Android out of the brick state? These are the questions we will try to answer in today's article.

Just don’t need to panic and fall to the fifth point - the worst has already happened, therefore, let’s calmly understand for a start what “bricking” of the device means. We are talking about the complete (maybe partial) loss of the gadget’s performance as a result of careless intervention in the operating system or incorrect actions regarding the software.

The main signs of the state of Android "brick"

Inability to turn on the device.
There is no reaction to the buttons (physical and on-screen).
The system constantly gives an error reporting problems with the built-in or random access memory.
When you turn on the device, an error appears stating that it is not possible to download the Android operating system.
Misc.

An ordinary user in this case, in a half-faint state, will carry his Android to the service center where, realizing that a sweet pie has arrived, they will turn on a far-from-democratic account due to banal manipulations.

The reasons for "rusting" a tablet or smartphone

The first and, alas, the most common is unsuccessful flashing. Sometimes an inexperienced user suddenly got tired of his operating system and after reading information from wherever possible, he decides to proceed with the software upgrade of his device. And now the download of the latest and most fashionable firmware begins with do not understand what source. The result, in general, is predictable - from an imbalance in the system to a complete failure in work.

Conclusion - do not try to reinstall the operating system without the need, and if you decide, do it from trusted and reliable sources.

The second reason is some kind of failure during the flashing procedure, i.e. interrupted process. For example, they did not pay attention to the battery charge of their device, which ended at the most inopportune moment (wireless installation method). Make a conclusion yourself.

Cases are not uncommon - rollback to factory software after installing custom firmware.

A variety of "improvers" designed to improve performance, transfer speed, etc., force stop some system applications, even seemingly harmless installation of a new theme - all these are factors that can bring your gadget to a coma.

How to fix the situation

Standard methods:

First way - we do hard reset (reset) through recovery menu (recovery menu). Our actions:

Turn off the device completely, i.e. We take out the battery for a couple of minutes and install it again. Then we hold and hold the volume key (usually to increase, but on some devices there may be a decrease). Now you need to press the home button (or turn on) and hold down three keys until the recovery mode starts. In the menu that appears on the display, select (volume rocker) the line " Wipe Data / Factory Reset»:

We wait until the system finishes the reset process and reboots.

Second way - try to get into recovery mode and flash from there (much safer than using all kinds of software):

And choose wipe Data / Factory Reset (see above) to delete data. Then you need to choose wipe cache partition. This is necessary in order to erase the section in this case. cache. Now try to put your OSes through install zip from sdcard. To do this, select the archive with firmware and confirm your choice

For flashing, go to the office. site of the manufacturer of your device. Find the official version of your Android model and absolutely follow the instructions.

It is possible that your device does not react to anything at all, including buttons. In this case, you can enter the recovery using USB jig. A penny gadget, but if you can’t find it, here’s a video for very handy ones:

Third way - We are trying to connect our device to another computer via USB, or to replace the cable itself, and then “reflash”. The fact is that there might be a lack of power from the PC power supply for the firmware procedure (this, by the way, is a common reason for Android “turning up”).

Fourth way - restore the "brick" Android using Flashtool (video):

That's probably all on the topic. If you had a successful experience in resuscitating your device, please share it.

Many of us are familiar with an operating system such as Android. All owners of devices running this shell know that using Android is simple and convenient: you always have your favorite applications at hand, useful functions, and the interface is so flexible that you can almost completely change it at your discretion.

"Brick" - what is it?

"Android" began its journey back in 2009 and since then, developers have been engaged in the promotion and improvement of the shell, not knowing sleep and rest. Systematic updates and new versions. As a rule, a user buys a gadget with an operating system already installed on it and throughout this device’s “life” the firmware of this version (version of the operating system) remains. But sometimes it needs to be reinstalled due to technical problems or at the user's own request. Then you have to carry your favorite device to a service center, to an experienced master, and some are taken for a flashing on their own.

Here, many novice users who are familiar with "Android" at a level no higher than installing applications from the Play Market, "grow wings." Having read various instructions on the World Wide Web, they think that reinstalling the OS is a simple matter and that they can do it themselves. In addition, they will save a certain amount, which they would take in a service center. But soon, such users realize that they have exaggerated their own strengths and it is not going to complete the flashing properly.

In this case, there are various scenarios. The most unfortunate of them is when the phone turns into a brick. You may have heard this wording before, but did not understand what it means. "Bricking," or "bricking," of a device means that it partially or completely stops working. That is, it does not turn on, does not respond to pressing buttons or connecting to a computer. Is it possible to restore the brick "Android"? Sure you may. Hence the name - brick, because the functionality of the gadget is now no more than that of a stone, and now you can only crack nuts with it. To bring the device to such a state is quite difficult, for this you need talent. But we hasten to please you - the device is in any case subject to recovery, if you have not taken seriously the idea of \u200b\u200bnuts, and the device itself is safe and sound. So, how to restore the “Android” brick?

Why can a device become a brick?

In order to understand how to restore the “Android” brick, you first need to understand the mechanism by which the device turns into it. So to speak, go the opposite. And once again, it would be nice to prove to users that without physical interference in the case and the internal device of a smartphone or tablet, you cannot completely “kill” it and you can return it to work in ways that we will discuss below. We will interpret in simple language. Your device has It is located in the internal memory and does not have intersection points with the operating system, that is, these are two independent substances. And even if during the flashing process crashes, malfunctions or errors occur, this same console will remain untouched and with it you can reinstall the firmware again. In addition, on this console you can make a backup copy of the OS with all the necessary information.

No panic

The question is brewing: "And if something is wrong with the console itself and it disappears?" Liquidation of the console is quite rare, but even if it happened, the operating system will remain in place, and you can restore the console from it using special utilities. There are practically no cases when both the console and the operating system “fly away”, you just need to have enchanting luck to destroy these two shells at the same time, but recovery is also possible in this version.

How to restore a brick- "Android" at home

If you are good at technology, but for some reason you have turned the device into a brick, you can restore it at home. There are several options in which the bricking occurs. We will analyze each case separately.

Unable to log into the operating system

That is, the gadget itself gives signs of life, it can be turned on, but the firmware hangs endlessly, is reset, or just on the screen you see a boot or power on window, but in fact nothing happens. Firstly, do not rush to conclusions. For example, people who don’t understand how to rebuild the Chinese “Android” brick start to panic just a few minutes after the power-on screen appears, and such a device needs even more time to “think” than a high-quality device. It is only possible to come to the realization that something went wrong only 10-15 minutes after switching on.

Then your actions are as follows: turn off the device completely and go back into recovery mode (the system console, staying in which is an integral part of the flashing itself, so it’s hardly necessary to talk about what it is and how to get there). After that, you can try to install the same firmware again as the first time (Install zip from sdcard -\u003e Chooze zip from sdcard) or make a backup of the system (Backup and restore -\u003e Restore). Please note that if after the first attempt to reflash the device you could not enter the system, then perhaps the OS itself was of poor quality or not intended for your gadget, and you do not need to “install” it again. Choose a different version or restore the old one. The same problems can occur if the battery was not enough to complete the process or memory to install a new system (the device model is outdated for the new firmware version).

Unable to enter recovery mode after flashing

There is such an option that after flashing the OS itself works fine, but it does not exit the console. Everything is fixable and much simpler than you think. On the Play Market of the same name, you can find special programs designed to return recovery mode to you. For example, applications such as TWRP Manager or Installer do their job well. If your device specific and similar utilities did not help you, then there are other ways to restore the “Android” -brick console mode.

You "killed" both the firmware and console mode

This happens very rarely, and if you were looking for how to restore the “Android” brick through a computer, then your time has come. You can’t do without a PC. You will need to go into fastboot mode and perform a number of simple steps. We do not focus on this point, because for each model of the device there is a way to enter this mode, and it is the kind of gadget that determines all further actions of the user. How to restore the “Android” brick on the tablet? A number of actions are not much different from the procedure with a smartphone.

We told you about how to restore the “Android” brick. Bring your gadget back to life and use it with pleasure!

Let's figure out how to flash Android through a computer / laptop if it does not want to turn on. In this case, we mean a phone and a tablet running Android OS.

This article is suitable for all brands producing Android 9/8/7/6 phones: Samsung, HTC, Lenovo, LG, Sony, ZTE, Huawei, Meizu, Fly, Alcatel, Xiaomi, Nokia and others. We are not responsible for your actions.

System malfunctions can be so serious that either resetting them does not fix them. If you are faced with such a situation, it will be useful to know how to reflash Android in order to return the phone to working condition.

Bootloader check

The first thing to do before flashing Android is to make sure that the problem is of a software nature. Press the Power button: if the phone shows at least some signs of life (clicks, the logo is on, the robot is frozen, an exclamation mark), then the bootloader is working. So, you can flash the smartphone, and it will continue to work.

Even if nothing happens when you press the power button, it’s too early to panic. Connect the device to the computer via USB and press the power button or the combination of “Power” and volume down keys.

If the computer sees the connected phone, it means that it can be flashed - the main thing is to know how to do it yourself. If the smartphone does not show any signs of life, bring it to a service center. It is likely that the device will not turn on due to hardware problems, the removal of which requires the intervention of a competent specialist.

Android firmware via computer

Once the system is so damaged that it does not turn on, you will have to reinstall it - in other words, flashing the phone through the computer. If the manufacturer has provided such an opportunity and developed special software, then there will be no problems.

For example, owners of LG smartphones were lucky: the LG Mobile Support Tool, which can be downloaded from the manufacturer’s website, will do everything for them.

Install and run the LG Mobile Support Tool.
Install the phone drivers in the "Install USB driver" section.
Connect your smartphone via USB. Press the power button or the combination “Power + Vol-”. The device should appear in the program window.

Click to enlarge

Open the "Advanced Features" section and click "Recover from Update Failure". The application will perform the rest of the work on its own, fixing the problems that prevent Android from working. A similar program is for Sony Xperia - PC Companion.

If there is no official application for firmware or system recovery, you can use software from third-party developers. Each brand has its own program:

LG - KDZ Updater.
Samsung - Odin.
HTC - Android SDK Platform Tools.
Lenovo - SP Flash Tool.

The listed programs work on the same principle. You connect the phone via USB, download the firmware file for a specific smartphone model and install it through the application. After a successful installation, Android starts up again and works without errors.

Android firmware via Recovery Menu

If a custom Recovery was installed on the phone before problems with the system (for example, TWRP or Clockwork Mod), then you can flash the device without programs on the computer. Nevertheless, the computer itself will be needed to download the firmware and transfer it to a memory card.

Find the firmware for your phone model and download it to your computer.
Upload the file to the memory card and install it on your smartphone. If the smartphone does not support microSD, this method will not work.
Launch Recovery Menu. Commonly used is the combination “Nutrition” + “Vol +”.
Clean up your phone from damaged files by selecting “wipe data / factory reset”.
Click install zip from sdcard.
Select the firmware file uploaded to the memory card and confirm the installation.

Click to enlarge

After the installation is complete, click “Reboot system now” to complete the installation and apply the configuration. After rebooting, Android should start without problems.

After that, you can try installing the same firmware again as the first time (Install zip from sdcard -\u003e Chooze zip from sdcard) or backup the system (Backup and restore -\u003e Restore). Please note that if after the first attempt to reflash the device you could not enter the system, then perhaps the OS itself was of poor quality or not intended for your gadget, and you do not need to “install” it again. Choose a different version or restore the old one. The same problems can occur if the battery was not enough to complete the process or memory to install a new system (the device model is outdated for the new firmware version).

Unable to enter recovery mode after flashing

There is such an option that after flashing the OS itself works fine, but it does not exit the console. Everything is fixable and much simpler than you think. On the Play Market of the same name, you can find special programs designed to return recovery mode to you. For example, applications such as TWRP Manager or Installer do an excellent job. If your device specific and similar utilities did not help you, then there are other ways to restore the “Android” -brick console mode.

You "killed" both the firmware and console mode

Android turned into a brick: device recovery methods

Digging is a complete or partial loss of functionality by an Android device. Not a single user who flashes the gadget on his own is safe from turning a smart phone into a meaningless "brick", so the question of how to perform recovery at home often arises in various forums.

Correction of the consequences of unsuccessful firmware

If the smartphone is constantly reset when loading, or the logo spins on the screen for 5-10 minutes, but the system does not start, then technically this is not a “brick”. Such a device can be quickly restored through the Recovery menu, by reflashing it again.

Turn off the phone.
Hold down the volume down key and press the power button to enter the Recovery menu.

You have two options - restore the backup if you did it (this is one of the main requirements for firmware), or re-flash the phone. To start the backup, go to the "Backup and Restore" section and start restoring the previous state of the system.

For flashing, select the “Install zip from sdcard” section and specify the desired operating system file. This method fixes errors that occur during incomplete firmware: for example, when the phone disconnected while recording files.

The reverse situation is that the firmware starts, you cannot get into Recovery. This problem is resolved even easier: you can use TWRP Manager, ROM Installer or ROM Manager to return the recovery console. After installation, these applications determine the model of the smartphone and download the desired recovery on their own.

If the listed applications did not cope with the task, find the instructions for installing the recovery console for your mobile device model.

Restoration of the "brick"

Consider a more complex option, when the smartphone really turns into a "brick" - neither the system nor the Recovery menu starts. To restore it at home is also realistic: for this you need to use the official firmware from the manufacturer. Consider the recovery order using the example of a Samsung phone:

Your "brick" will again become a workable device, returning to its original state.

Flashtool firmware

This method is suitable for Sony phones, but it can be applied on mobile devices from other manufacturers. You will need:

The "brick" itself that you want to restore.
Official firmware in FTF format.
Flashtool with firmware drivers installed on the computer.

Before starting work, it is advisable to disable the antivirus and firewall in order to avoid the incorrect operation of the Flashtool utility. In addition, proceeding with the restoration of the "brick", make sure that the phone is fully charged.

The recovery program will prepare the Android firmware and offer to connect the "brick" to the computer. Hold down the “Volume down” key on the device and connect the phone to the computer.

Flashtool should identify the brick connected to the computer and run the firmware on it. If the recovery is successful, then at the end of the log you will see the message “Flashing finished”. After that, you can disconnect the phone from the computer and turn it on - Android should start without errors.

Each manufacturer has its own utility for flashing, so it is better to look for instructions on how to restore a specific phone model that has turned into a "brick". If at home it is not possible to return the device to a healthy state, it remains to contact the service center.

Brick recovery Android

The loss of Android functionality on a smartphone or tablet, or the so-called bricking, occurs for a variety of reasons. Most often, this is facilitated by incorrect firmware, which can turn an advanced phone into a brick that no one needs. The question of whether you can restore the gadget yourself is of interest to many users.

How to eliminate the consequences of unsuccessful firmware

If after the logo appears when you turn on the system does not start for several minutes or the download is constantly reset, then this is not a “brick” and not all is lost. To get the launch, you need to go from the smartphone to the Recovery menu and do a new flashing.

To do this, follow these steps:

If the gadget is turned on, you must turn it off. Hold down the key with which the volume decreases and the power key. The Recovery menu opens, which offers 2 ways:

restore backup (this is the main requirement for firmware, if the phone was flashed, then the backup was also restored). The backup starts to run in the Backupand Restore ”section when you select the previous system position.
flashing - carried out by selecting the “Install zip fromsdcard” section, in which you need to specify the necessary component of the operating system. This option deals with the correction of incomplete recovery errors that may occur, for example, due to the phone being disconnected at the time of the file recording process.

Another situation may arise: when starting the firmware, I cannot access Recovery. This is eliminated simply: returning the console to fix the system is carried out by special applications TWRP Manager, ROM Manager or Installer. These applications are designed to determine the gadget model and to independently download all the necessary components to launch a suitable Recovery.

If none of the above programs corrected the error, you can find instructions on downloading the recovery console for a particular brand of smartphone or tablet.

How to restore the real “brick” of Android

We examined what can be done in case of incomplete loss of smartphone functionality. Now it's time to talk about how to restore a completely “dead” Android when nothing starts. It is not necessary to go to the workshop right away, you can try to start the system at home with the help of simple actions.

What to do, consider step by step:

Install the latest Samsung USB drivers for your computer.
Download and install the latest version of the Odin app.
Download licensed firmware that is suitable for a specific model and country.
Turn off the “brick”, then press the key that reduces the sound and the “Home” key. After a few seconds, a warning appears on the screen.
By pressing the button on the phone, which increases the sound, put it into Odin mode.
Connect the gadget to the computer.
Make Odin start, click PDA, in it designate the tar.md5 file in the directory with the firmware.
Press the “Start” key, start recovery, wait for the end of the operation.
Hooray, the "brick" has earned!

How to reflash a smartphone with Flashtool

One hundred percent this option applies to Sony phones, however, devices of other brands can be restored in the same way.

What do you need:

“Brick” Android;
licensed firmware in FTF format;
flashtool program installed on the computer, firmware drivers for it;
disabled antivirus, firewall, which can respond to Flashtool as a viral component;
charge the phone well enough so that it does not turn off at the time of recovery.

Step-by-step recovery instruction via Flashtool

Each manufacturer of gadgets based on the Android OS has its own personalized utility for flashing. If it happens that the phone or tablet turns into a “brick”, you should choose primarily the instructions for your model. If all the above attempts to restore the device remained in vain, it is worth contacting a professional workshop.

Bringing back a bricked smartphone to life - Hacker

Most of the articles in the X-Mobile rubric are devoted to hacks and tweaks that require root privileges, firmware modifications, or their replacement with custom ones. However, not every reader is ready to expose their smartphone to such operations, fearing that they can turn the device into a brick or lead to instability in work. Today I will debunk these myths and show that even in the most stalemate situation, bringing a smartphone back to life is not so difficult.

Let’s talk about what it is all about “turning a smartphone into a brick” and what other pitfalls a user can wait on the way to change the system and install custom firmware. What kind of glitches can I catch at the same time, and is it possible to kill a smartphone by reflashing it incorrectly? Will you lose the guarantee forever or can the smartphone be returned to its previous state? Can custom firmware really let the smartphone owner in the most inopportune moment and are they worth it?

Myth 1. Incorrect flashing can kill a smartphone

A smartphone can be killed by falling from the fifth floor, but not a flashing. The main problem that anyone who wants to reflash a smartphone faces is that a failure may occur during the installation of the firmware, which will lead to its inoperability, and the smartphone will actually turn into a brick.

All this is true, but only on paper. To understand why, it’s enough to understand how the process of flashing the smartphone works and what system components are used. In order to be able to install third-party firmware on your smartphone, you need to unlock the bootloader (not in all cases), get root and install a custom recovery console (ClockworkMod or TWRP) that can install firmware with any digital signature.

TWRP Recovery Console

The recovery console is stored in a separate section of the internal NAND memory and is in no way associated with the installed operating system. After installing a modified version of the console, it will be possible to flash custom firmware or even another OS (Firefox OS, for example). If a failure occurs during the installation of the firmware, the smartphone will not be able to download it, however, the recovery console will remain in place, and all that will need to be done is to boot into recovery again and reinstall the firmware.

In addition, any custom recovery console contains a backup / restore function that allows you to backup the main firmware and restore it unchanged (with all applications, settings and data) in case something goes wrong. In fact, the smartphone can be returned to its original state.

Before flashing, be sure to backup using the custom recovery console

You can restore the backup using the Nandroid Manager Android application

You may ask: what will happen if a failure occurs during the installation of the recovery console itself? Nothing, in this case the opposite situation will turn out, when the operating system itself will remain in place, and the console will be lost. To deal with it, just re-flash recovery directly from Android.

Hypothetically, one can imagine a situation where both the firmware and the recovery console will be killed (although this is rather difficult to do), but even in this case, the primary bootloader will always remain in place, flashed into the permanent memory of the smartphone.

Conclusion: it is impossible to kill a smartphone by installing third-party firmware through a custom recovery console. Either recovery or the primary bootloader will always remain in place.

Myth 2. Custom firmware is unreliable

Firmware firmware is different. On the expanses of the World Wide Web, you can find a huge number of Android assemblies for every taste and color, and most of them are really slag, which can lead to instabilities in the smartphone and loss of functionality. Therefore, the first thing to remember is that you should only deal with serious custom firmware developed by large teams of experienced developers. First of all, these are CyanogenMod, Paranoid Android, AOKP, OmniROM and MIUI.

The second one. There are two types of firmware: officially supported and ported by third-party developers. The same CyanogenMod, for example, has the official version for the Nexus 4 smartphone, but does not have one for Motorola Defy. But for Defy there is an unofficial port of CyanogenMod 11 from the developer with the nickname Quarx. Their difference lies in the fact that the CyanogenMod team is responsible for the support and proper operation of the first, while the second is for Quarx personally. Official firmware versions are usually usually fully functional, but the correctness of the second depends on a third-party developer.

Well, the third. There are stable and developing firmware versions. Stable versions of CyanogenMod have an M index (CyanogenMod 11.0 M7, for example). This version of the firmware usually does not contain bugs. Developed versions (in the case of CyanogenMod it is daily nightly builds) may contain errors, and therefore are not recommended for everyday use.

Conclusion: if you install a stable official version of “normal” firmware on your smartphone, the risk of encountering bugs is minimal. Everything else is for experimenters.

Myth 3. Software that requires root privileges can turn a smartphone on.

In theory, an application with root privileges can do anything with the smartphone’s firmware, including erasing it completely. Therefore, with such software you must be extremely careful. The software that we talk about on the pages of the magazine is completely safe and tested on its own skin. In addition, for all the time using smartphones on Android (and this is starting with version 1.5), I have never encountered a situation where software with root support would kill a smartphone.

The software distributed through Google Play, usually completely corresponds to the declared characteristics, and if it led to a brick or left a backdoor in the bowels of the smartphone, it would not last a week in the store. In any case, here you need to follow the rule “trust, but verify” and carefully read the instructions for using root-applications.

Myth 4. Root rights make a smartphone vulnerable to viruses

The smartphone is vulnerable to viruses not by root privileges, but by the bugs used to receive them. Rooting tools and viruses can use the same Android vulnerabilities to gain root privileges, so the fact of having root on the device does not change anything. A well-written virus will not request rights in the standard way, giving out its presence; instead, it will use the same vulnerability to get them secretly.

Moreover, having root, you get the opportunity to install the latest version of Android (in the form of custom firmware), in which these bugs are already fixed. Also, do not forget that most custom firmware allows you to disable root or create white lists of applications that can use these rights.

Myth 5. A rooted smartphone may fail

The software designed to get root does four simple things: it launches an exploit that allows you to get root privileges in the system, mounts the / system partition in write mode, copies the su binary required for obtaining root privileges to the / system / xbin directory, and installs the SuperSU or SuperUser application, which will receive control whenever an application asks for root privileges using su.

None of these steps can lead to a crash or kill a smartphone. The only thing that can happen is that the exploit will cause a segmentation error and the smartphone will go into reboot, after which it will continue to work normally.

All root permissions can be tracked using SuperSU or the built-in custom firmware function

Myth 6. Having received root and installing custom firmware, I will lose the guarantee.

The warranty is lost not from the very fact of getting root, but because of its discovery by the service center. Most devices can be removed from root privileges using the Universal Unroot application or by reinstalling the stock firmware using the official application from the manufacturer.

There are, however, two exceptions to this rule. The first is the Knox system, pre-installed on new Samsung smartphones and tablets, such as the Galaxy S4, S5, Note 3 and Note 10.1. Knox provides enhanced Android security by responding to any firmware modifications and installing third-party kernels and firmware. In the event that the user performs these actions, the system sets a trigger that confirms the fact of modification. The trigger is implemented in hardware (eFuse chip), so resetting it to its original position will not work. On the other hand, it is not clear whether the service center will refuse to repair the device on this basis. Second: the eFuse chip is also installed on some other devices (for example, smartphones from LG), and it also allows you to accurately determine whether the smartphone was rutted or reflash.

If we talk about custom firmware, everything is more complicated. Usually, a flashing operation requires unlocking the bootloader, and this can be done either using special exploits or using the web service of the smartphone manufacturer. In any case, the unlocked bootloader will accurately indicate that the smartphone did not belong to the blonde.

On some smartphones, it is possible to lock the bootloader back, but you should learn about this separately, and also keep in mind that a newly locked bootloader will most likely receive the status of Re-locked, not Locked, as it was originally (this happens on HTC smartphones, eg). The exception is only smartphones and tablets of the Nexus line, the bootloader of which can be locked and unlocked in three clicks without dancing with a tambourine, and no one will find fault with anything.

On Linux, ADB and Fastboot can be installed separately from the Android SDK. On Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install android-tools-fastboot. In Fedora: sudo yum install android-tools.

To prevent Knox from interfering with root applications, it can be disabled using the following command from the terminal: su pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid.

findings

Obtaining root and flashing the smartphone are absolutely safe operations that can not brick the smartphone for purely technical reasons. The only exception is an attempt to hack the bootloader in order to unlock it. In this case, the eFuse chip may work (if there is one in the smartphone) and block the ability to turn on the smartphone.

Fortunately, today, smartphone manufacturers either choose not to block the ability to turn on a smartphone with a hacked bootloader (by setting a trigger that indicates the fact of an action like Knox does), or they implement a special web service that allows you to painlessly unlock the bootloader with a loss of warranty on your smartphone, which eliminates the need for users to risk breaking the bootloader.

So, now let's talk about what problems can arise when getting root and flashing and how to deal with them.

Scenario one: after a failed flashing, the smartphone stopped loading

Unsuccessful flashing can be caused by several factors: the battery is dead, and the firmware is only half full, the firmware was unsuccessful or intended for another model of smartphone. In the end, the smartphone simply did not have enough space that could happen when trying to install the latest version of Android on a smartphone three to four years ago.

Outwardly, all these problems usually manifest themselves either in the endless reset of the smartphone to the initial logo of the manufacturer, or in the so-called boot-loop, when the loading animation spins on the screen for more than five to ten minutes. There may be problems with the screen (colorful ripples) and a broken touch screen, which also impede the use of the smartphone.

In all these cases, it’s enough to do one simple thing: turn off the smartphone by long pressing the power button, then turn it on with the volume down button pressed (some smartphones use a different combination), and after getting into recovery, reinstall the firmware (Install zip from sdcard - \u003e Chooze zip from sdcard) or restore a backup (Backup and restore -\u003e Restore). Everything is easy and simple.

Scenario two: firmware works, but recovery is not available

This can happen after an unsuccessful installation or upgrade of the recovery console. The problem is that after rebooting the smartphone and turning it on with the volume down button held down, a black screen appears, after which the smartphone either resets or hangs.

Solving this problem is not easy, but very simple. You can install the recovery console on the vast majority of smartphones using the TWRP Manager, ROM Manager or ROM Installer applications. They themselves determine the model of the smartphone, download and flash the desired recovery, without requiring a reboot. If, with their help, it is not possible to restore the console, it is enough to find on the Web instructions for installing recovery on your device.

ROM Manager allows you to install recovery in two tapas

Scenario three: neither firmware nor recovery is available

Honestly, it’s hard for me to imagine such a scenario, but, as practice confirms, it is quite real. There are two ways to get out of this situation: use fastboot to upload recovery to your smartphone or use the tool from the manufacturer to install the stock firmware. We will consider the second method in more detail in the next section, but I will talk about fastboot here.

Fastboot is a tool that works directly with the primary bootloader of the device and allows you to upload firmware, recovery, and unlock the bootloader to your smartphone (in devices of the Nexus line). Fastboot support is available in many smartphones and tablets, but some manufacturers block the possibility of its use. So you have to consult about its availability with the Internet.

To access fastboot, you will need drivers and an Android SDK. When they are installed, open the command line, go to the SDK installation directory, then to the platform-tools directory, turn off the smartphone, turn it on with the volume buttons (both pressed), and connect it using the USB cable to the PC. Next, you need to find the recovery image in .img format for your device and run the command:

$ fastboot flash recovery image.img

Or even make the smartphone boot recovery without actually installing it:

$ fastboot boot image.img

In the same way, you can flash the official firmware update:

$ fastboot update update file.zip

You can find a recovery suitable for your device either on the TWRP website or in the XDA-Developers and w3bsit3-dns.com forums.

In this section, I will talk about ways to return a smartphone to a clean drain, no matter what condition it is in. These instructions can be used both for scraping the smartphone, and to remove traces of rooting and flashing. Unfortunately, I can’t talk about all the possible models, so I will focus on the four most popular flagships: Nexus 5 (this instance I call the control), Galaxy S5, LG G2 and Sony Xperia Z2.

Nexus 5 and other google phones

Returning Nexus devices to their original state is easier than any other smartphone or tablet. In fact, it is so simple that there’s nothing to talk about. In fact, all that needs to be done is to install the ADB / fastboot drivers (even they are not needed on Linux), download the archive with the firmware and run the script. Step by step the whole operation looks like this:

Download and install the Android SDK.
Download the archive with firmware for the desired device from the Google site.
Turn off the device, turn it on with the volume buttons held down (both) and connect using a USB cable.
Unpack the archive with firmware and run the flash-all.bat (Windows) or flash-all.sh (Linux) script and wait for the operation to complete.
We launch the command line, go to the directory with the Android SDK, then platfrom-tools and execute the fastboot oem lock command to lock the bootloader.

For those who are interested in what the script does, here is a list of commands:

Fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-NAME-DEVICE-VERSION.img fastboot reboot-bootloader fastboot flash radio radio-NAME-DEVICE-VERSION.img fastboot reboot-bootloader fastboot flash system system.img fastboot reboot-bootloader fastboot flash userdata userdata recovery recovery.img fastboot flash boot boot.img fastboot erase cache fastboot flash cache cache.img

Galaxy S5

With the Galaxy S5 smartphone, everything is somewhat more complicated, but overall quite simple. This time, you will need the Samsung application Odin, with which the smartphone will be flashed. Sequencing:

Download and install the latest Samsung USB drivers from here.
Download and install the latest version of Odin from here.
We go to samfirmware.com, enter the search model SM-G900F, find the firmware marked Russia, download and unpack.
Turn off the smartphone and turn on with the volume down and Home buttons held down, wait five seconds until a warning message appears.
Press the volume up button to put the smartphone in Odin mode.
We connect the smartphone using a USB cable.
Launch Odin, press the PDA button and select the file with the extension tar.md5 inside the directory with the unpacked firmware.
Press the Start button in Odin and wait until the firmware process is completed.

As I already said, this operation will return the smartphone to its original state, but will not reset the trigger installed by the Knox system (if it was in the standard firmware). Therefore, the service center may refuse to repair.

Odin in person

Odin is even in the mobile version

LG G2

Restoring the LG G2 to its factory state will also not cause any special problems. The number of steps in this process is somewhat larger, but by themselves they do not require special training and knowledge. So what to do to return the factory firmware to G2:

Download and install the ADB Driver Installer from here.
Download the official firmware (Europe Open 32G or Europe Open) from here.
Download and install LG Mobile Support Tool, as well as FlashTool (goo.gl/NE26IQ).
Turn off the smartphone, hold down the volume up button and insert the USB cable.
We expand the FlashTool archive and run the UpTestEX.exe file.
In the window that opens, select Select Type -\u003e 3GQCT, Phone Mode -\u003e DIAG, in the Select KDZ file option, select the firmware downloaded in the second step.
Click the CSE Flash button at the bottom of the screen.
In the window that opens, click Start.
In the next window, select the country and language and click Ok.
We are waiting for the firmware to finish, and then turn the smartphone off and on.

It's all. But keep in mind that, as in the case of Samsung, the smartphone will still have the status of Rooted, and this can not be fixed.

Sony Xperia Z2

Now about how to return to factory state smartphone Sony Xperia Z2. As in the previous two cases, this will require stock firmware and the official firmware utility. You run the utility on the PC, connect the smartphone with a USB cable and start the update process. Step by step it all looks like this:

Download and install the ADB Driver Installer from here.
We reset the smartphone to the factory settings.
Download and install the Flash Tool from the official Sony website and the latest firmware from here.
Copy the firmware file to the C: / Flashtool / Firmwares directory.
Turn off the smartphone and turn on the volume down and Home keys with the keys held down.
We connect the smartphone to the PC using the USB cable and run the Flash Tool.
Press the button with the lightning icon in the Flash Tool. In the window that opens, select Flashmode, double-click on the firmware in the list that opens.

In many smartphones, an unlocked bootloader will not allow an update by air.

In 90% of cases, unlocking the bootloader will entail the deletion of all data from the smartphone, including the memory card.

Smartphone firmware, and even more so getting root access, are not at all as scary and dangerous operations as they might seem at first glance. If you do everything right and do not resort to tools that unlock the smartphone bootloader bypassing the manufacturer’s tools, you won’t be able to brick the smartphone. Yes, in some cases it will be necessary to tinker to get everything back in place, but what is better - to use a locked smartphone, which does not allow to do half of the things that it is capable of, or get full control over the device? After all, reinstalling Windows on a PC doesn't scare anyone.

Restore Android Brick

There are cases when, after trying to install custom firmware on Android, unlock Superuser rights (root access) or delete system data, the device stops functioning. This manifests itself in the inability to log into the mobile device system and even boot the Recovery environment. This state of the phone or tablet is popularly called "brick".

No matter how serious the “scorching” problem may seem, in most cases the gadget can be reanimated at home. Consider how to restore Android, if it turned into a "brick".

Methods of resuscitating Android with "bricking"

There are three effective methods to restore Android in the event of a loss of functionality:

using a standard recovery environment Recovery;
through custom recovery;
through a computer and special software.

Which way to use depends on the state of the system on the device.

If you are constantly trying to enter the device’s working area and there are constant reboots or the phone hangs on the system logo, but the Recovery environment works, then you are in luck, since you can restore Android firmware through it. To do this, you must:

After a reboot, the factory settings should appear on the smartphone. If Hard Reset did not help to fix the problem, try to reanimate Android after unsuccessful firmware using a previously created backup of the system or a file with firmware downloaded from the Internet.

To restore Android from a previously created backup, you need to do the following:

If you have not taken care of creating a return point in advance, then you can return Android to work on your tablet or smartphone using the downloaded firmware. In this case, we revive the gadget as follows:

Download the firmware file to your PC specifically for your Android device model. This should only be done from trusted sources.
We remove the memory card from the device and connect it to the computer through the card reader.
Copy the downloaded file there.
We return micro sd to the phone.
We enter Recovery and select the item marked in the figure.
We indicate the path to the firmware and run resuscitation.

After recovering the “brick” of Android, the downloaded file can be deleted.

Using custom recovery

If the “bricking” led to the rally not only of the OS, but also of the standard Recovery, then you can restore the system using the custom resuscitation medium - the CWM Recovery program.

Before you restore the "brick" on Android, you need to install Modkaveri on the problem device:

The installation of CWM Recovery will begin, at the end of which the smartphone can be disconnected from the computer and proceed directly to resuscitation:

After performing these steps and rebooting the phone (tablet) should work.

Resuscitation of a "brick" through a PC and special software

Considering how to restore Android after "bricking", it is worth noting specialized software developed individually for each manufacturer of mobile devices. So, the FlashTool recovery program is used for Sony gadgets and some other brands, and Odin for Samsung.

We will return the performance to the “brick” using Odin:

The process of automatic system recovery will begin, after which you can again enjoy your working device.
