How to return to stock ?

Firstly I will appologise for my stupidity before I start.
New to Andrioid and thought i would root my phone and try some different firmware which I thought that I had done succesfully but when I try to go back to the original stock firnware using Rom Manager & Clockwork Mod Recovery I keep getting the message " an error occured while attempting to run priveleged commands!"
Don't understand what has happened or why it's not letting me do this as it let me put the new firmware on so does that not mean that it's rooted ?
*#1234# give me the following
PDA : I9000XWJM8
PHONE : I9000 XXJM!
CSC : I9000xxjm1
Sorry if I'm being a complete fool but can someone point me in the right direction to return it to XXJM1 the same as when it came out of the box.
Thanks for your help anyone ?
Tried using method of Vol+ home and power button to reinstal update.zip to give me root again and don't think i should have tried this as the phone now boots to the samsungm logo and goes black ????
Please please please can someone help have I bricked my shiny new phone ???

So you can boot fine, but you can't access recovery to fix your problem?
I'd say whip open Odin and flash it properly.

Thanks for that but I've never used Odin before.
Have downloaded the original XXJM1 so I gather I run Odin program and flash back the original rom/firmware (not sure what it's called for Android)
Any help or guidance would be appreciated.
Cheers

[HELP] Lenovo Yoga Tab 2 1050F Softbricked

So i rooted my Yoga tab just a few hours ago and it went great. Booted back in and installed some apps and started to remove some apps. I rebooted the tablet shortly after and got stuck in some bootloop at the title screen. (Lenovo for those who do) It boots three times and then its just black with some flickering.
I got in to recovery and did (probably really, really stupid) a reset of data and cache. figure that will solve everything. It didn't. But it did not however make it works. Still the same bootloop.
if i leave it on for like 10 minutes, the screen where you choose language and time comes up but i can't press anything. Then everything goes black and flickers.
I was on stock kitkat when this happened and I've searched all around the internet for answers. I don't understand half of the things a read. Reflashing a new bios and fastboot what not. Almost every link in every thread is dead.
I need help and i hope you can help me with a solution too how i can get my tab up and running.
I have no back ups what so ever because i'm stupid so i need just hard reset everything not worrying about saving anything. (didnt have anything on the tab anyways)

Hello !
You should try to flash stock KitKat Lenovo Firmware with IntelFlashTool !
Also, you should install some intel drivers : Intel® USB Driver for Android* Devices & iSocUSB-Driver-Setup .
KitKat Firmware must be available under Lenovo site !
Put your device in DNX mode ( press & keep at the same time all three hardware buttons , when device reboot just release power button ... you will see soon "Fastboot starting..." , right now you can release volume up & down ) - connect your device via USB with your desktop and start Intel Flash Tools . Just unpack stock KitKat Lenovo Firmware and select under Intel Flash Tools , Flash file : "flash.xml" from Lenovo Firmware !
Good luck !

Thanks for your help.
Unfortunately, i think it made i made it worse
The flash stopped at 70% and now i'm stuck in a bootloop at the first power up screen.

Can you still get in to fast boot,and are you sure you were on KitKat rom.
try and start your tab in normal fastboot mode (from the recovery console select 'reboot to bootloader' or use from power off the combo keys Pwr & Vol+ or Pwr & vol- one of these two should bring you to the Fastboot/Droidboot menu) and from there tell me what the ifwi entry says... BLADE_21....

Problem solved!
I had to check "Force fastboot sparsing" and change it to 500MB in FlashTool and then it worked. Everything is now up and running.
Thanks for your replies.

Bios Downgrade Tool Query
Hi mate, sorry for such a late reply but I'm struggling trying to get the bios downgrade tool to work on my tablet. Its plugged in and the "fast boot starting" message is showing but when I click on the tool on my pc and start it, nothing changes with the tablet. Is there an obvious step I am missing? Kind of new to this.
Thanks

Hello chaps. Random question. I have searched and searched for an answer but cant find a 100% reliable one. Can our 1050F 10.1 inch run Ethernet on the OTG? I have been liaising with Lenovo tech support via email for 5 weeks now and they are certain it can but I cant get it going with my Plugable OTG/Ethernet adaptor. So, what say you folks? Thanks.
On the Lollipop.

Tablet lenovo yoga 10 B8000-F not booting

Hi,
I have been successfully running Android 4.4.2 rooted on my tablet Lenovo Yoga for a while (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59609647&postcount=178 ).
Yesterday unfortunately, the tablet is stuck on boot.
Turning it on, it displays LENOVO logo on the screen but then the logo stays there and nothing happens.
(I left the tablet on for more than 15mins, nothing, only LENOVO yoga always displayed on the screen).
Turning it off and connecting the usb cable, the tablet screen wakes immediately up and displays always (no animation!) the battery icon with the red lightning inside.
I can access recovery mode and wiped cache, then rebooted, still same problems.
Any help? What could the causes be?
Thanks a lot.

UPDATE: I tried a factory reset but I problably switched it off before it was completed (the screen was dark - not sure).
Now it boots, it shows LENOVO logo, then the android robot with ERASING... and after a few minutes it reboots and it's stucked in this loop (LENOVO logo -> android ERASING -> reboot)...
How can I fix it?

Can you get a copy of the original ROM and flash to the tablet,using something like this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118
Maybe this site might be of help if you can get the needed files. http://techbeasts.com/useful-adb-and-fastboot-commands-and-how-to-them/2/

Thanks for your useful answer!
I managed to download B8000_A422_000_085_140402_WW_WIFI rom but this is a folder (not a flashable zip file via sdcard) that has to be flashed via Smart Phone Flash Tool software.
I tried to use FlashTool, but FlashTool does not recognize my tablet (drivers should be OK) and therefore install the rom or do anything on the tablet
Do you know where to find a flashable zip rom for Lenovo 10 tablet so that I can try to flash it via sdcard?
Cheers.

Ah ah I was checking the same website! Thanks!
Keep you posted

Thank you everybody, I managed to install 4.2 Android stock again, then update to 4.4.
A hint if someone will have my same same problem (pink lines but no yellow bar in the flash tool, so the flashing process did not start).
I solved it by pressing once shortly the power button on the tablet (then the yellow lines appeared and the flash process began and completed successfully!).
UPDATE: see this link to switch from Chinese to other language https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lynx-M...CION-YOGATABLET-8-10-B6000-B8000/ta-p/1761767

Thanx for guide!!

---------- Post added at 08:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------
[/COLOR]Bumping an old thread rather than starting a new one, because this is exactly what my tablet started doing. I only use it for reading, so when it first started acting up I tossed it on the shelf and figured I'd fix it later. Now I want to read, and I find myself digging around in here. Apparently I'm to stupid to follow the directions for any type of flash involving my computer SP doesn't show me the scatter file I need in my firmware directory. I'd really love to just toss this onto a micro SD and flash it the old fashioned way! Barring that, some dummy proof instructions. I haven't flashed since my old S5, and this device is even older than that so I should be able to get this done. It's really annoying me that I can't. TIA for any help.

Unfortunately my Lenovo Yoga, after 4 years, died... :'(

Lenovo A328 Bricked Not Charging Not Booting

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

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

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

please send me the firmware

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

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

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

Blu Studio C Hd s090q stuck on logo screen

Hello everyone.
I have a Blu Studio C HD s090q stuck on logo screen forever.
I have downloaded this room here http://www.mediafire.com/download/d9bdr1dbw4qk9ic/BLU_S090Q_V07_REPAIR.rar
and SP Flashtool v5.1428.00 and MTK USB drivers which I have installed and restarted computer after that.
Followed this tutorial here: http://www.blogtechtips.com/2015/03...phone-flash-tool-to-flash-any-blu-smartphone/
The thing is after I click "Download" button of SP flashtool and then connect my device (without battery as suggested on tutorial) and press vol up, nothing happens.
What should I do? Could somebody give me a little help? I have bought this phone just 3 weeks ago.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: I just figured out what was wrong after many and many tries and I would like to share in case somebody have a issue like mine.
First off, I had to download and installSP Flashtool ver 5.1628 and MKT USB Drivers and I also installed MT65xx Preloader Auto-Driver.
After I installed all these, I had to manually install "MediaTek DA USB VCOM (Android)" driver to my computer, then as I had bricked my phone by replacing KingRoot for SuperSU, while following previous tutorials, instead of choosing option "Format All + Download" (which wasn't working at all in my case), I picked the option called "Firmware update". Hit Download > while pressing vol + button, plugged usb cord / cable > SP Flashtool started downloading and I released vol+ button.
That's it! If somebody have any doubt, feel free to contact me.

Did you installed MTK drivers?
In some cases you have to install it manually to your computer.

There are several different BLU Studio C HD models. What is the MODEL NUMBER of your device? And what is the specific complete name of the ROM that you flashed?
Sounds like you flashed the wrong ROM.

You had a custom recovery on your phone? How exactly did you "download" the custom ROM to your device? You installed it from a zip using the custom recovery? Please explain.
Also what is the EXACT FILE NAME of the ROM you downloaded. Ron Genuine is not something I'm familiar with. Please answer the question I asked you. Without the exact file name, I cannot help you.

Hello Friend, I hope that even in these days I can respond. I have a problem with my Android ROM BLU Q S090Q / Android 6.0. I installed the ROM and everything perfect, I solved the Bricked of the phone using the MTK Droid Tools 2.5.3, the problem is that I could not rootearlo with any program (KingRoot, OneclicRoot, etc.) to be able to change the IMEI that I have it with another number and does not activate the Android's antenna. The Recovery of this Terminal is the original that brings the ROM that was installed, my question is: Will you install the TWRP you mention here and then load the SuperSU Binary 'to Rootearlo? What method can I use to robe my terminal? :silly:
I also read something on the Net about an Android ROM Nougat on BLU Studio G2 (Android 7.1.1 / CM14.1), is this true or is it a Fake?
Posd. I can not change the IMEI with the option "Engineer Mode" because in the terminal, the line inside the menu "CDS information" does not exist or is hidden, the other programs to activate it are NOT installed or blocked with an error message, I leave some captures to give you an idea.
