I tell you I unlock it first, then I had problems with some widgets and I learned some new updates.
Then, I made a backup with Sony_Ericsson_Backup_and_restore.
After searching, I root my phone with "GINGERBREAK" downloaded from the internet (GingerBreak-v1.20) and finally settled "Titanium Backup" to remove some applications from my operator, then install the CLOCKWORDMOD (do not know what for) and and finally I started to flash ...
After root, flashing with FlashTool_0.2.9.1.
I suggested steps for flashing and inserted this update: "LT15i_4.0.A.2.368_Generic Global", with "wiped ...", which is to delete everything and set it to zero ..
Normal work for me ... I sent version 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 (thinking I would send to 2.3.4). It was great ... Then I appeared a notice of samsung (on phone), to install version 2.3.4 (4.0.1.A.0.283 I think it was that number) and when it started to install warned me he was going to shut down, spent 6 or 7 minutes and not lit. I tried to turn it on and vibrated, then vibrate him again and try to turn rang again, but soon ...
Then I could not turn ...
Once this happened I was like crazy trying to fix the COMPANIOM, but nothing ...
I flash again, this time with this "LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42_ (1247-1041). Ftf" but did not recognize the flashtool as the first time coming out of the mobile code when you open the program loads and displays the model number of the phone, it did not appear.
Finally, press flash and began. (To this already, before, try reinstalling the Global LT15i_4.0.A.2.368_Generic where my computer does not recognize, nor giving flash, just not recognized out in red letters)
When flashing with the latest LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42_ (1247-1041). Ftf, the normal flashing until the end. But my phone just did not work. The light that was on the side of my phone was green ...
I sent a technician and he said he could not ....=/
I hope you can help and serve as a case to be resolved.
Thank you very much, good luck!

Lol dude, don't install things if you don't know what are those for
But i did it...u_U! So, now?
Tuesday
306sh activated with MVNO, SA300 firmware, rooted, with TWRP recovery,
working fine for past 2 months.
For unknown reasons, it decided last friday (at home, none to low signal) to do a system update
(from SA300 to S7232). Phone - on the desk- just "dinged" and msg came up "updating
system software". I attempted to cancel, but it didn't respond. Less than a minute later, "Update Successful" msg. Didn't reboot, anything, settings showed S7232 firmware. (SA300 before,
i had done my weekly backup earlier that morning).
Since then, phone constantly reboots at the "Aquos" screen; after an average 8 hours of rebooting, it will boot to setup, the talking setup screen. Works perfect for about an hour then rebooting starts again. Let battery die last nite, tried again this am - same thing rebooting.
TWRP backups don't fix problem- weekly backup, i have 6 i've tried, factory reset doesn't fix, if i try to Software Update, it checks, tells me, "up to date".
I turn on wi-fi to use the phone from home, , guessing it did a ? hit & miss ? ota update since the
wi-fi was off when it attempted the update. Home is a very minimal signal area.
Any way to force it to take the S7232 update again?
(I could update over wi-fi if i had wanted, only i didn't want the update anyhow).
thanks, rik

Just home, thanks
Hi,
Thanks for the help, just home from work (rough), so i will plug the
Aquos in tonite and hopefully be able to try the file tomorrow,
(that 8 hour boot thing), just downloaded your file, i'm ready.
This is my take-to-work personal phone, sprint zone, and i missed it today.
Your help is really appreciated.
rik
Final note
thought i'd just post to let you know the phone obviously had big problems
-- it failed to start today -- just buzz on buzz off -- even after 4 hours charging,
all i could get was the battery dead screen, wouldn't come on at all.
Guess the real problem was with hardware, i laid it away in the junk phone box
in the attic, end of Aquos Crystal.

Question: My 306SH would not update (still at S8216). Could use your back up to update my firmaware?
After 306SH ph was acting weird, did a hard reset & saw system Software updtd to S7232, & unk file in Misc (.eCtcQjbu1dgnvtFnvnr6yepTp1M=) I then installed Malwarebytes & scan detects this S7232 software update as malicious malware Android/PUP.RiskyTool.Agent.ay (dm.redbend) "/system/priv-app/fotaClient.apk". When going to System to do an manual update, Malwarebytes popups w/same msg every scan "Software App", even aft reboot 2days ago 7/12/2017. And phone wont let me create new google acct. An error that "google account mgr not working" popup & I see that same unk file reappears. Ph not rooted -XDA says "there's no root for 306SH that works">see XDA blog 'Root for Aquos Crystal 306SH ONLY'.
Go to the Sharp USA website for the 306SH firmware, and see what firmware you are on.
Download the firmware from the versions higher than yours, and if there is a repeat, notably "kernel.img", download the most latest version of it.
Then, plug your device into your computer, make sure you have the proper drivers installed for the Sharp Aquos Crystal installed on your computer. Boot your device into bootloader. Go to a terminal, cd to the directory where you downloaded your .img's from the website, and do
fastboot flash kernel kernel.img
Ex.
fastboot flash foo foo.img
And you can flash all the latest updates. When done, exit the terminal, make sure the device is unmounted, unplug from computer, and reboot your Crystal.
Hooray, it should be updated!

Turkbot, I hate to beg on my first XDA post, but is there any chance that you still have that ROM and is there any chhance that it's not TextNow loaded? I've got TWRP, Busybox, SuperSU, Xposed, and I've tried every which way to edit the prop, tweak it with modules, unlock etc (it even works with my Sprint MSL, but crashes when I try to manually set my MDN and MSID) It just says no SIM/no service and refused to give me any signal except for GPS and WIFI without one. Countless 'techs' over the phone and 3 different Sprint repair stores claim they don't have the stock firmware and Sharp actually claims that the reason they can't help me with the firmware is their contract with Sprint forbids it.. If you still have the file or a TWRP / Titanium etc backup you would be my savior.
Hey guys,
I've bought my MX4 Pro almost a year ago, but decided only now to ask for your help. Hope you'll be able to guide me to fixing the several problems i have.
First of all, phone came with Flyme 4.5.7I and right from the start there were some features not working. Most important, the fingerprint screen unlock isnt working. After capturing my fingerprint, when i try to enable it to unlock screen it just takes me back to the home screen.
Another issue is getting sometimes (it happens randomly) a no sim error. Sometimes restarting is enough, sometimes i need to take out the sim card and insert it back.
Ever since i've tried to update firmware, hoping it would solve my problems. Nothing has worked.
Dowloaded the update.zip (no matter which version) and placed it in root directory. When i try to open it with the document app i get two options, view and extract. Can't update. Also starting the phone using volume+ and power button (update screen) has always produced the same results: Firmware corrupt. Tried doing it with clearing data, without that, no difference. Tried with a .bin file, same thing.
As far as i know the bootloader is locked, and i remember checking if the device is properly rooted and IT IS NOT.
So, the more android savvy people here can help? I'm lost and i really enjoyed the phone so far, but i dont really know what to do from now on. Is it a faulty device? (This would be the worse, since the phone was bought from China).
I can provide any additional details if needed.
Thanks in advance
P.S. I remember trying every tutorial/solution out there, nothing has seemed to work. I also may be dumb, not sure.
First excuse me for opening an other thread like this, i think i have read all other threats regarding my problem, but none have the same situation
My Huawei M3 Wifi (BTV-W09) seems semi bricked after installation of Nougat Update.
The Installation (Force Install with dload) gave me an error and also while boot i got the error message: "Your device has failed verification and may not work properly."
I have the option to press "Powerbutton" and the device will boot up. I checked the Version and it showed android 7 + EMUI 5. The only problem was that almost every system app was missing, like keyboard, calendar etc. (playstore was there)
So i tried to do the rollback with:
HUAWEI MediaPad M3 8 Rollback Package%28BTV-W09 %2CC900B300%2C EMUI5.0%2BAndroid7.0 rollback to EMUI4.1%2BAndroid 6.0%29
The Installtion (force update) gets stuck at 5% and after like 3-5 minutes the tablet will boot up showing the same boot error that can be skipped with pressing powerbutton. I checked sytem and it still showed "android 7 + EMUI 5" but built : BTV-W09C900B300
I think this is the one i "need" to be able to install the "HUAWEI MediaPad M3 8 Firmware %28BTV-W09 %2CC100B006%2C EMUI4.1%2BAndroid 6.0%29"
Problem is regardless which "update.app" i try to force install will get stuck at 5% and give me same error. I have ADB/Fastboot installed and tried some different things like flashing/unbricking it with "Huawei Multitool" where you can extract like boot.img or recovery.img and try to flash it.
Also getting an error. I can access eRecovery witout problems, the option to fix it by itself by wifi doesn`t work. I can´t access "normal" recovery and i think there is the problem (may got bricked while flashing Nougat?) I think its recovery problem, cause when i boot it up to the "half-installed" Android and go into setting "hard-reset" option i know it would boot up intoi recovery and would erease everything, while bootup it shows error "reset failed".
In fastbootmode i see bootloader: unlocked FRM: unlocked
I tried to install TWRP recovery with adb but get error: adb remote command not allowed
I downloaded like 15 different Android Versions 6+7 Emui 4.1+5 to try with force update but none worked, may i have to flash special version of recovery first?
I just want a normal version of android 6 or 7 i dont mind but at the moment with half working 7 "without" systemapps its a hardtime.
I hope someone can help me.
This isnt my first android device and im not a total noob i unlocked bootloader and flashed kernels on many other phones but with the W-09 where i did nothing special i dont get why "recovery got broken"
Thanks in advance
You haven't read other threads too well: more times people reported that the bootloader got locked after an update still declaring itself unlocked!
Second thing you have not found: the Nougat update consist of 2 packages and the second must be installed from TWRP.

thanks for your anwser, i read that so i also tried unlocking it "again" and it quotet it is also unlocked in adb. I also know that there are 2 packages. That you need TWRP i didnt know thanks so i am a bit smater now. I think i ll try "relock" and unlock it again might be the right way, thanks for the tip.

This is nonsense. Unlock, install the right TWRP then install the second zip package.

i cant unlock cause i dont have the code, on the huawei page i try do make an account and get the code by providing the necessary information.
I just uploaded a picture, i choose "before EMUI5" cause this is the only option i can choose "tablets". --> i choose "tablet wifi" , enter product model "BTV-W09" then the serialnumber i can see in setting: 28D6R17316XXXXXX but then i have the problem to input product id, it say i can get it through "Dialer" app (which i dont have in wifi model ) or the calculator. Problem is in my damaged installation there is no huawei calc, other calcs from store dont work (read that problem in other threats) I tried many apps from appstore to get a product ID but huawei site keeps saying wrong product ID =/
With the program DC Unlocker i am able to see a MEID i dont know if its the right one, i tried my luck with the Product ID Generator from Huawei but it doenst work. (device not supported)
It's very strange that it says bootloader unlocked if you have never unlocked...
And was very stupid to try to installl a beta release without before unlocking and taking a backup.
Exhange your device for a Nokia 3110!

yeah at this device i never touched bootloader, i didnt think it would become such a big deal , i didnt want unlocked bootloader or other recovery just newest android. Never had any problems with the "force update function" to come back to stock. I tried DC Unlocker but cant get further cause device need to get into manufature mode (thorugh dialer or calculator which i both dont have) i hope maybe i find one more way.
Did you ever find a fix
Did you ever find a way to fix this. I'm in the same situation. I even did a VPN on my router to give me a Hong Kong address for erecovery and that still didn't work. I have the exact same product. Like you I tried to various attempts to download a new recovery, but nothing works. Nice hardware, but some of the worst software/firmware I have ever dealt with since starting with the first release of Android on the HTC Hero.

I had mostly the same problem. I rolled back to 4.1 using the rollback and the actual 4.1 update.app. I think that puts you on C100 if I remember right. Tablet I have is C128 (USA) but no problem for this step. Get the Product ID from the calculator. Allow OEM unlock in the settings, then unlock it using the unlock code. Email yourself the unlock code because who knows if their website will even be functional next time. Alternatively you can extract the stock calculator from the update_data_usa.zip or whatever and try to use DC with 5.0. That second update zip does not install properly via the dload method, so a bunch of stock apps don't get installed. You can kind of hack it and flash it via TWRP but I didn't do it that way.
Or...you can use firmware finder to force an OTA from 4.1 right up to 5.0 (350), then take that last partial OTA to 351 after as well. The way to do that is via DNS in firmware finder. Find the Full OTA in firmware finder you want, send it to the updater by changing your DNS the way it tells you to, and when it does the OTA, everything will be properly installed basically the official way. Good as new. Flash TWRP to recovery2 and replace the erecovery. Keep the stock recovery as is. Install magisk. Golden.

Also, as far as the rollback, you need to do the first one (the C900 which is just a compatibility fix to allow rollback, previously used by beta testers I believe). Then you need to do the second one, the C100. If it is getting stuck, try downloading it again and be sure you don't have anything else in the /dload directory on either internal or the sd card. I had one on both at one point so maybe that happened to you. The C900 should be very quick but the C100 will slowly progress after 5% all the way around in several minutes.
When you get to updating back to 5.0, you can choose whichever region you want as long as it is a full OTA. C128 is USA and that's what I bought so that's what I picked. That gets you back in the right OTA update channel after that.
Hi guys,
I started as a novice and have learnt the hard way.
Has anyone tried rollback to EMUI 4.1 EU version on a US device (W09) and are there any problems I should be aware of?
I have had the exact same problem shared in this thread and have gone through the pain of finding a solution. My last resort is to rollback to 4.1 and restart the whole process.
@deV14nt: you suggested that when updating back to EMUI 5.0, I can choose the region even if my EMUI4.1 is EU version. How does this work?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi.
First of all, I want to let you know I'm just new to this page, so I'm so sorry if I make any mistakes within creating the post.
As you've read in the title, I can't fix the OS of this phone. I bought it used, and apparently it didn't have any OS (I thought it was because there was a flashing attempt, which went wrong). One day, I just looked for Android 9 and I installed it. The phone started working, and so I started using it. There were some problems with the phone though. First of all, at random moments, it started lagging and just re-starting. The other problem I had was the bootloader message, saying that I didn't have an official OS.
Today, I tried to uninstall all of /system. I read a lot of information, I watched a lot of videos and I started doing so. Basically, what I wanted to do is delete all in /system so I could install a clean ROM from my computer. Problem is, I have "flashing_locked" flag. I also downgraded it to Android 8, and I think it made it worse. Now, I don't even have internet connection (or what is called /persist), which also means I'm stuck in the setup screen. There's no way I have now to enter developer mode, nor activating usb debugging. Just wondering, is there any tips I could get from you guys to fix all this problem?
Thanks a lot.
Edit: I also think there's some "residual" data from those flashing attempts, Android 8 and also Android 9. I'm not sure if that has something to do.
Edit 2: I also requested a Unique Key from the Motorola official page, which didn't lead me to anywhere. Although I used "fastboot oem unlock <key>", it didn't work to me.

I'm wondering how you managed to downgrade the device from Android 9 to 8 with a locked bootloader?? that's very strange... To fix the known issue of broken wifi/mobile connection (as a result of the downgrade) it's recommended to revert back to Android 9.
So, you did the downgrade from 9 to 8. But now you can't finish the setup wizard to activate OEM unlocking? Please tell me, at which point it has been deactivated?? It doesn't make any sense...
Try the Lenovo Motorola Smart Assistant tool. It'll fix the issue.

I think not. Flashing a firmware means copying image files to a specific partition. Each image file got its own partition table. There will be no data left.
