x704F bricked I think? - Thinkpad Tablet General

Hi guys,
Trying to fix a friends x704f wifi only, but no luck.
It had Lineage 18.1 on it, and for whatever reason he did not like that, and went on to reflash stock with Lenovo's Rescue and Smart assistant which showed it a success rescue, but now Tablet boots to EULA, arrives to choose wifi and it crashes and reboots constantly, with no wifi icon being shown.
Lenovo rescue installed TB_X704_S000060_220916_ROW, so I factory reset it a few times from recovery, went through rescue again, installs same ROM, success, yet again it crashes at network selection, of if you do not touch anything, it crashes itself after about 20 seconds after being booted and if i hold the Power button and select shutdown, briefly the standard desktop shows with icons and than it crashes, so guessing ROM is there, it just can't boot.
Tried with QPST and latest ROM, but on eMMC xml selection I get error Document error on element program and name/value true.
Guessing baseband or some other thing should of been backed up before flashing stock again? if it helps, OEM lock is OFF, secure boot is ON what I can see from fastboot.
Thanks.

There must be something wrong with the persist partition, flash the persist.img again.

[Q] Spica doesn't turn on

I had Cyanogenmod 6.1.1alpha8.1 on my spica. Recently it got a little bit laggy so i decided to flash it with odin to restore the original firmware and install everything else from the beginning. I tried to flash it with I5700XXJH6. The flashing went fine, but when spica started booting, only the first, static bootlogo showed up and there was even no progress bar. After 20 minutes nothing had happened so i tried to flash it with 1.5, then install Lk10 to get into recovery mode, so i could get access to the phone's shell. Unfortunately, after flashing everything was the same - static bootlogo and no progress bar. Installing LK10 went fine, but the phone still wouldn't boot into recovery mode. I tried many different ROMs and one of them worked - the system booted properly, everything seemed to work at first glance, but when i inserted the SIM card and input the PIN code, the phone got stuck on "Unlocking SIM card". I tried rebooting many times but it didn't work.
Once again i tried to flash it with odin and everything was the same as before. I tried a few times, but now there's no download mode and when i connect the phone to the charger, nothing shows up on the screen.
Is there anything else i can try to do?
i had and solved the same issue yesterday.
I think part of the issue is maybe with a previous FileSystem conversion and another part with data/cache from previous Roms.
Try to make an install as clean as possible.
- I5700XXJH6 with Odin
- LK2.08 with odin
now you have an acessable recovery.
- boot the phone and put the CyanogenMod 6.1.1 alpha8.1 (found on 'forum dot samdroid dot net') on the root of the sdcard.
- shutdown the phone.
Important: disconnect the phone before booting in recovery, else it will boot normaly.
- boot in recovery (Volume down, accept call, on/off button)
- apply the downloaded zip.
reboot normaly, if it loads normaly, yay!
If it doesnt load (wait 5 mins to be sure) pull out battery.
reboot in recovery, and wipe data/cache (factory reset)
reboot normaly, if it loads normaly, yay!
If it doesnt load (wait 5 mins to be sure) pull out battery.
reboot in recovery, and make sure data,cache and system are rfs.
to change it to rfs 'advanced>filesystem conversion'
reboot normaly, if it loads normaly, yay!
if not send me a PM.
I already tried installing I5700XXJH6 and LK2.08 but neither the system nor the recovery mode would load - only the first, static bootlogo showed up. I can't try again because the download mode doesn't work any more and when i connect the charger, the screen remains black.
As I wrote in the first post, i managed to get it working once, but it had problems with the SIM card, so i tried different ROMs, which seems to have broken my spica entirely.
Is there anything i can do to restore the download mode?
im assuming you tried starting downloadmode without it being connected to a pc.
I dont know how to restore downloadmode, perhaps the guys at the samdroid forum can help you out.

Stuck on "Starting Android..."

Hi Guys
I used Odin to reflash my Galaxy S10+ dual sim (duos) as it was experiencing some slowness. I used the Singapore firmware as it uses the same "G975FXXU1ASBA" model name.
The process completed successfully but when the phone boots, it gets past the Samsung logo screen and then gets stuck on a blank black screen with "Starting Android..." showing in the middle. I can swipe down from the top to show the toolbar, but it is limited in what I can select from it and the phone doesn't get to the point where the home screen boots.
I'm guessing this could be an app optimization process but after 4 hours, it was still on this screen.
I've tried re-flashing (redownloading the firmware files), clearing the cache and rebooting the phone.
Does anyone have any ideas?
In case you do want to start clean anyway, have you tried doing a reset in the recovery menu (where you are wiping the cache)? This will wipe all data.
I may have to try the full wipe, which is something I wanted to avoid but seems I have no choice.
Hopefully that at least solves the problem.
I have the same problem but I cannot get it to boot into recovery or download mode. I was flashing Magisk at the time. Odin said it worked but now it wont pass the initial stating android... Odin detects the phone but can talk to it. ADB does not even detect the phone. Phone power and reset come on. if i hold both volume the assistant comes on and if i hold bixby the safemode tag appears in the bottom corner but it still wont boot past Starting Android or boot into download mode

Galaxy S8+ in bootloop without recovery and frp locked

Hi guys!
I've read tons of threads and guides on Google but nothing helped me to bring to life my Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus. After hours and hours of test and probes I surrender!
Basically I was using normally my phone and suddenly has power off and showing the Samsung Galaxy Logo continuously. I've force reboot it with vol down+pwr button and after some minutes restart normally again. After 5min again the boot loop and stuck there. Tried again to power it off but didn't work so I thought was the battery (because is 3yrs old with heavy use and months ago I had the screen flickering and a battery drain to zero). I opened the phone, unplug the battery and the power button (because I thought was the power button stucked as on my father phone). So after mounted all the stuff in their place I tried to boot it and suddenly start to work again! I've backup all my things rapidly but again power off by himself and this is the last time I see it working.
So I tried to empty the cache entering in the recovery but it was useless so the only way seems flashing the original FW with Odin. Downloaded the right one with Frija, upload the rights files in Odin (Home_csc because I don't want to lose my internal memory stuff) and the phone automatically reboots, pass the Samsung logo and go in Upgrading mode with the blue android screen and a % increasing. After that by himself power off and nothing happen.
I read some stuff about my possibilities to recover it without losing data but a lot of tutorial talk about entering in recovery but I cannot do it! Simply does not go in recovery with vol_up+bixby+pwr_button even after force shutdown it with vol_down+pwr_button or reattach the battery. The only thing I'm allowed to do is put it in Download Mode to be recognized by Odin.
I've tried to launch ADB devices but it is not visible in Download Mode.
I've tried to flash another firmware for the same model (theoretically my one is unbranded italian) but I tried with WIND one because in download mode there is a text "Carried_ID:WIND" but this FW Odin fail to upload it.
I've tried to flash the TWRP with Odin but fails on the phone with error "Custom binary(recovery) blocked by FRP Lock". I've searched how to unlock it but without have access to recovery or phone settings seems impossible. And this phone has also OEM Lock.
I've tried again to flash the FW but the only difference than before was the blue android robot with stucked text "Installing system update", "Erasing" , "yellow advice notice" and finally a green screen with "An error has occurred while updating the device software.Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC Software". And yes, I already tried with Smart Switch but the program does not detect the phone.
I've also tried to flash the original recovery but nothing change.
Seems that my devices is bricked or a kind of boot loop.
In my situation there is something that I can do to recover the internal memory data? I don't tried to flash the FW with CSC file because I don't want to erase all the data.
My Galaxy was original since the purchasing, no root or flashed a FW, only OTA updates.
I've attached a photo with the stuff that appear in Download mode.

Stuck in Crashdump mode

Hi All,
I got my friends phone that is stuck in Crashdump mode and wont boot to any other like fastboot or recovery any Idea how to fix it ?
Never encountered anything like it so I have no Idea how to fix it.
Get MSM tool running on your computer. The phone can be showing crash dump mode. Connect phone with USB, hold down all three buttons. Might take a few tries but the tool should recognize the phone and flash the stock rom and lock the bootloader, then just do whatever steps you like from there.
Hello, I am facing the same issue. Initially I can fastboot and select the Start option. It helped to boot into the system successfully without any issue, but few minutes later it happend again and now I cannot even boot / fastboot the phone. No response after press the power button. May I know what should I do? Can I recover my data? Thanks.

100011886 Bluetooth Keeps Stopping and No Wi-Fi

Hi everyone. So after trying to flash the patched magisk boot.img via SP Flash tool, the tablet wouldn’t boot, so I flashed the firmware that is on another post and it boots fine now, however the message “Bluetooth Keeps Stopping” constantly pops up and the Wi-Fi doesn’t work. Only way I can get it to work is restarting the tablet a bunch of times and going into Reset and resetting the Wi-Fi,Bluetooth, and mobile and it eventually will work until I turn the tablet off or it dies. Also it is now Android 10 GO and it came with Android 11 GO. Any advice?
When that happened to me it wad the vendor partition. In your case if that is issue, you would need to flash that partition. Only thing else you could try was going into recovery and wiping.
