okay, so, I fixed my phone and stuff, but there seems to be a problem, I can't force update my phone through the 3 button method, the zip I donwload aren't corrupted the version is compatible, it just says "Software install failed" is there a solution to this? I can only flash through twrp

to have b390 i do like this:
B160 -> B370(TWRP) -> B390 (Firmwre finder DNS method)

You should try to nstall stock rom from your region. But NOTE: you shouldn't select that option on firmware finder(incase u use another phone) or you'll end up with test keys.

[Q] Definitely [Bricked] Maybe

Hello to everyone,
I'm stuck in a very bad situation with my ZTE open (codename Inari).
I've flashed the phone for upgrading to 1.4 version software, but something goes wrong...
In startup the phone stuck with the splash boot image (the logo with the FirefoxOS text)
Now the phone boot only in a fastboot way (with ROAMER2 codename), and whathever firmware I try to flash into phone give this error:
with fastboot windows version:
Code:
sending 'recovery' (5712 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.523s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.922s
with fastboot linux or mac version:
Code:
sending 'recovery' (5712 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.523s]
writing 'recovery'...
ERROR: usb_read failed with status e00002ed
FAILED (status read failed (No such file or directory))
finished. total time: 0.839s
in each way the phone reboot.
I've tried also the NandDL_firefox.exe software, but It seems to be in trouble with the ARMPRG file (that I don't really what it is, and the software come in chinese language)
So, if I press the VolUp+power the phone does nothing (still with the logo described up),
the VolDown+Power the phone does nothing.
Only with the VolUp+VolDown and Power button the phone going into Download Mode (the pc recognized the phone as "ZTE WCDMA Handset Diagnostic Port"...
Maybe this can be the last salvation, this mode is recognized by QPST suite software, but I don't know from where I can start to use this software...
Someone can help me?
Or someone want a bricked phone to hard testing?
Thanks

have you tried flashing the original firmware from the zte website? and then start all over? From what I remember, you can put the firmware directly on the sd card and flash from the recovery menu.

There is a little little little problem.
The recovery menu doesn't exist anymore...
I've (maybe bad) flashed the recovery partition, so it's now inaccessible...
Pushing the VOLUP+Power button the devices doesn't start in recovery mode...
Only Download Mode is available, but I don't know what it is really
Thank you

the phone stuck in fastboot mode when the power button is pressed.
The only other method to start up the phone is download mode (VolUP+VolDown and power button).

cant you flash recovery using ADB ????? i think you might, just find a recovery that does work on your mobile and flash it using adb if it works you can install or flash atleast something to work with.

Can't Flash TWRP

Hello. I am on 6.0.1 MMB29M trying to flash TWRP. I get this error message while doing this.
c:\angler>fastboot flash bootloader twrp-2.8.7.2-angler.img
target reported max download size of 494927872 bytes
sending 'bootloader' (16880 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.392s]
writing 'bootloader'...
FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist)
finished. total time: 0.414s
Bootloader is unlocked as well as debugging. I have followed a lot of different guides but can't get passed this error. I had TWRP working on MDB08K but the camera was not working for some strange reason. If anyone can help me get TWRP on MMB29M, that would be great.

Your command is wrong, The command to use is: fastboot flash recovery twrp.the name of your file.img
Just like @jawmail said, you're flashing twrp on the bootloader """slot""
-fastboot flash recovery ***TWPR***.img
-fastboot reboot-bootloader
When your phone reboots, using your volume keys, search for "recovery" and using the power button, confirm it.

Whoa! Does your phone still boot to the bootloader? If so, you're extremely lucky. Flashing a non-bootloader image to the bootloader is pretty much the only way to hard brick a Nexus. You need to take much greater care when doing these things.
Haha. Thanks. Yeah I am really lucky. My phone is working now thanks. Just coming from the S6 Edge. Very different rooting method from that, so yeah I should be way more careful. Thanks for the awesome guide, btw Heisenberg. Running PureNexus with ExperimentalX kernel. Such an amazing combo.

Update: nvm, figured it out myself.
I have a similar problem. I flashed the TWRP recovery and it booted into it. Made a nandroid and an EFS backup. Copied the backups to my PC. Wanted to flash the systemless root zip. Issued adb reboot recovery and I get the little Android on his back and saying "no command". Tried flashing recovery again, got this:
sending 'recovery' (16880 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.515s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.238s]
finished. total time: 0.756s.
And still, I can't boot into twrp by either method. Getting the "no command".
What gives?

guess it's a corrupted file?
Actually, I just tried flashing it one more time, rebooted to the bootloader with the phone, not with the command. Then I also used the phone to enter into recovery, not by issuing commands. And it works

[HELP] Can't Flash recovery

Hi there,
I'm new to all this (first post) but I've just received a Zuk z1 which came with ZUI 0.9.096 installed.
I first followed the instructions on cyanogenmod dot org and later found the Tool All in One one here but I seem to run into the same problem on both.
When I attempt to flash TWRP recovery it fails, example error message:
target reported max download size of 1610612736 bytes
sending 'recovery' (10252 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.347s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Invalid data)
finished. total time: 0.470s
this is the error I get with TWRP 2.8.7 but the error is consistent no matter what version I use.
Anyone have any idea what I can do?
The phone isn't really usable to me without flashing as there doesn't seem to be an app store on it (at least not in English).
Thanks in Advance
Eric

Use dd command to flash recovery or use flashify app, of course first you need to have root rights but there's kingoroot to help although isn't a clean solution might do the trick for you.

Did you unlock the bootloader?
Hello,
I have the same problem,
I have the same Zui version, ZUI 0.9.096
I unlocked the bootloader, but I'm unable to flash TWRP
KingRoot is not working either, keeps failing

Bootloop PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey everyone, I've spent the last 5 hours trying to fix my phone and I'm not getting anywhere.
It gets to the second part of the starting up process, where it makes the sound as well and it just keeps glowing over and over.
I'm able to access the recovery mode, I've already tried clearing the partition cache & I've also done a factory reset.
I've tried flashing recovery.img & boot.img from B170 which I read somewhere, I've done that successfully but it doesn't seem to do anything.
I had this before and I fixed it by flashing system.img but for some reason it keeps giving me an error when I try to do it now: "error: cannot load 'system.img'"
Also flashing the bootloader doesn't seem to work:
"C:\Users\Leron\Desktop>fastboot flash bootloader twrp-2.8.7.1-p8.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'bootloader' (25880 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.547s]
writing 'bootloader'...
FAILED (remote: partition does not exist)"
I've read something about buying a card adapter but as I said, I have no money...
I tried to root my phone, bad f***ing move because for some reason it's impossible on the Huawei P8, excuse my bad language but im extremely frustrated i should have never done this. any help is welcome
thanks

Big mistake, no wonder it won't flash.
TWRP is NOT a bootloader but is a recovery, so therefore the correct fastboot command is:-
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
The P8 is quite easily rooted see here:-

and here:-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/how-to/rooting-huawei-p8-marshmallow-emui4-0-1-t3431249
Oh my bad haha.
I fixed it using SRKToolHuawei, which is very useful. I'm very new to this so that's why I screwed up so bad lol
Thanks for the help though. I'll check out the links you sent me and try to root again. Hopefully this time I won't break my phone lmao.

stuck at lockscreen, bootloader and frp locked

Hi, I just changed the lcd screen on an old p8lite my girlfriend wasn't using for a year or so. Fact is she can't remember the pin.
Pressing power+vol down I can enter fastboot and rescue mode, but phone was never unlocked so i don't know what commands I can really execute from here, if I press vol up and get into rescue mode I am given the option to download a new recovery, but when downloading it says 'getting package info failed'. In rescue mode I don't have other choices besides rebooting and shutdown.
What can I do to unlock the phone?Can somebody help me?????
UPDATE: on one of many reboots instead of showing me just the options to reboot, shutdown and download recovery, Emui recovery showed the possibility of making a wipe, so i went on wiping, downgrading, rooting, unlocking the bootloader, but i couldn't install twrp - every time I try these are the results:
C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk TWRP-3.2.3-0-Hi6250-Askuccio-v1.0.img

But TWRP doesn't get installed, anyway....
I would also like to try to run a datarecovery software to recover photos and stuff my girlfriend left in, but without having the p8 lite mass storage in explorer the results I get with android data recovery softwares are pretty useless, is there a way to make show the storage in explorer? If anyone would be willing to help me with some hints, I'd be very grateful. Thanks
