M8 Eye (MELS_TUHL) problem recovery, software corrupted - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I need urgent help with this. My friend's phone suddenly won't turn on and shows "Encryption unsuccessful". Tried factory reset but shows error triangle, tried wipe cache and all but to no avail. As I have uploaded you can see below. Never rooted. I hope you guys will help because I'm at my wits end here since the phone have no custom rom if I rooted it. So no point. Please help me ASAP!

I'm good with it, simple coding would be great if you have a solution for this

If it still under warranty then send it in ... this usually means the data partition is corrupted.
If it is unlocked, formatting data partition in TWRP recovery will fix it but this is non-rooted stock device, so the best option is HTC service centre.

htc one x bootloop after flash

i'm not really into all of that stuff.. but i just tried and failed miserably, haha.
so this is my problem:
i got a htc one x, rooted it and everything was alright. after that i tried to flash cyanogenmod 10 on it. i followed these stepps in this video: /watch?v=elDvcVot7qo (i would enter the full link.. but i'm not allowed to, because this is my first post here)
so i downloaded the cm10_endeavoru-ota-eng.noeri-007.zip and ripndroidgapps-jb-20120805.zip .. but instead of putting both of them onto my sd card, i put all the datas which were IN the files onto my device. now my handy is stuck on the bootloop and i have no access to my sd card anymore.. i just need the access to fix it, does anyone know a solution for it?

If you did a backup in cwm you can restore it or try and flash the rom again just make sure you read through the whole process a couple of times, mistakes are very easy to make, also look for threads about the rom you are flashing and try and cross reference the procedure, this sometimes helps ...good luck!

Plug your phone into you pc, boot into recovery, then in cwm go to "mounts and sorage" - "mount USB storage" and the sd card should pop up on your screen

I've been looking around a lot and I'm seriously to the point where I'm totally confused, I have my friend's HTC ONE X (international one) where we followed Hsasoon2000's tool kit (which also uses htcdev website) to unlock the boot loader and it apparently it did and everything was good but when we tried to install the CM10 rom for jellybean using his toolkit the phone got into this "boot loop" and we can't figure how to fix it.. we can get to the bootloader.. where if we select recovery it takes us to this "team win recovery project" thing and gives us several options but .. we are pretty new to this and we don't want to screw this even more. I got to the USB storage mount and I'm able to get into the files through the computer.. can any of you guys help please?? WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT

I truly appreciate your response .. do you recommend any video we could follow.. like I said we are new to this and learning as we go. THANKS
The command is
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You can search how to get and use fastboot, I have no link. It is requirement for pretty much any ROM, though.

I got it working thanks alot for all your help!!!!
what i did
i use CC rom and updated to latest rom, it corrupted sommehow i guess
it was locked into HTC bootloop and i could not reach recovery with volume button.
i did all guides , they did not work for me...
THEN I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
Kit and it alowed me to enter the recovery with a ADB command Problem solved, i installed latest backup and it started again.

No ROM installed, stuck in recovery.

I was getting random reboots and I tried to delete everything. I thought "clean to install new ROM" would just do a thorough cleaning.
When I try to boot it stays on the white HTC screen.
I can boot into the recovery and Squabbi's HTC One M8 toolkit reads it.
However, I have no idea what files to flash or even HOW to flash them so I can get an OS back on my phone. Can somebody please help?
I have no ADB experience.
Copy a rom zip on external sd and flash it through recovery or use a nandroid backup if you have one, but as you want a clean install maybe you want to use the first method

Thank you for your reply. I am currently in ADB i tried to do "adb sideload" but got an error "failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)'
I am going to try "adb push" right now and see if that works.
In the meantime, is it possible for me to recover using RUU in my current state of being stuck in recovery mode? Thanks again. I'll make sure to hit that donation button.

Well, the error might be a recovery issue, a cable issue (use stock htc one) or a driver issue... Unfortunately no RUU is available, so search for a nandroid backup in mr hofs' thread, copy it on the external sd card and recover it... Use the same recovery the backup was taken with (should be noted near the backup)... Let me know if you need further help dude

I flashed TWRP via fastboot. then i pushed a nandroid backup hosted on this site to the /sdcard/TWRP/backsups/<a directory i made here> finally got everything working. Thanks again for everything. I just hope the random rebooting doesn't come back.
I think it was rebooting because I disabled some bloatware apps via an app called App Master, which requires root. And when i restarted the phone, all those apps tried to run again but there was a conflict with App Master.

Well, you can try to reinstall the rom without removing the bloatware... If it's stable you found the culprit

LineageOS - "Soft brick" - no files

Hello,
I'm a bit lost, here is my problem:
I have an international LG G3, I switched to LineageOS from official ROM 10 days ago. Everything was working fine, until yesterday when at some point, whithout doing anything special, my phone froze as I hit the Home button.
It froze for quite some time, so I removed the battery and now I have the pleasure, each time that I start the phone to see the great LG logo that doesn't move...
My phone isn't root (didn't install the su addon) and though I can boot in TWRP recovery mode, I don't see any file and all my reboot options mention "No OS".
I tried to sideload lineage to flash the new version but it doesn't work, push neither (and I have no SD - it kept unmounting itself).
I tried to connect with LGUP to go stock, but I guess since it's not root, it isn't recognized, and I don't know how to root it as I can't access it.
So here I am, stuck, without much idea of what to do next, I would be thankful if someone knew how to fix this issue one way or the other!
EDIT: Any try to solve the issue failed as I get the same prompt : Failed to mount /xxxx, or : Unable to mount storage.
Thanks in advance!
I had the same situation like you. Your data got corrupted. There's no way to actually restore your files, at least I couldn't do that with help of my mates. All you need to do is eject your SDCard, wipe every partition and:
repeat all steps for /system, /data and /cache - select only one partition, click on Repair or Change File System and these click on Repair File System then Change File System to F2FS and immediately change it back to ext4 and Repair File System once again.
And then wipe every partition once again.
If you need more help, message me on telegram.

Hello and thanks for your message,
I tried your procedure but for each partition, I get a bunch of "Failed to mount", "Unable to wipe", "Unable to repair".
I don't care about the data, all I want is to have my phone running, I tried to "Format Data" within TWRP, doesn't work either.

have you tried restoring to Stock ROM using LG Flash Tool? as far as I know it resets all partitions so that might be the fix for you
please try once again with this TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-0-0-t3309475
maybe just try [Change File System] to ext4 again? It helped me with my data corruption

Yes, I tried with LG Flash Tool, it's the same as LGUP, in both case my phone isn't recognized (I can see my phone on my computer but it contains nothing).
I can't install this TWRP, first technique I can't find the file in my folders (though I could push it with adb), second i can't do "su".
(with the current TWRP - 3.1.1.1 - I can't change the file system)
if you have sdcard, you can put the file here and then flash recovery.img via recovery

Now I managed to flash something with this qualcomm utility (firmware files extracted from 30B KDZ, all other from 10 version were not responding) and I can have access to either:
- "Firmware Update" screen in DL mode, though I can't flash any stock ROM I found (I tried several DLL and TOT, I get "Model check fail" or some issue with the LAF: my guess is that it may be due to the fact that the recovery I managed to put is 30B and the the TOT I have is 10B so something doesn't work?);
- and on recovery mode I can access to Fastboot mode, but a not very efficient one as for some reason whenever I give a fastboot command it do much, the command run on the computer, then I get the output ". . ." in the command line, and the terminal stay in this state doing nothing...

You probably missed some steps, with flashing all the partitions, you must flash them in given order, and you must use the same kdz, 10e...try it again from scratch.
Mine g3 is still fully functional, so it's worth a try.
yeah, my phone did fully recover too. where you did you get your stock files? maybe you downloaded wrong files? I mean they're corrupted or something

Yes I followed the order, and finished with sbl1,
Now I can't do it again, I can't connect with the software as my phone is no longer 9008, so I have no idea what to do

[SOLVED] TWRP doesn’t let browse /sdcard files

I am having a problem it happened after I finally got to flash latest CosmicOS and set up a new password on my OP3. So, here’s what basically happened;
Once I got it up and running I noticed that home button and fingerprint sensor was completely disabled, then I tried to set up a new password (completely same password I used to decrypt my storage in TWRP 3.0.2-0) and fingerprint just in case but it didn’t react to me calibrating the fingerprint so I was like, ”alright, gladly I got a backup in TWRP”.
Once I rebooted to recovery it asked for a password as usually, once I typed that exact same password as before it just said wrong password, I tried it twice in case if I made a typo but still invalid password. And then I was panicing and pressed cancel and just rebooted back to OS.
I then removed all passwords there and booted back to recovery again, TWRP doesn’t ask for a password anymore but there’s a slider which says allow modifications or something similar and also there’s read only mode. When I slided the modification thing it just doesn’t show any of my files in sdcard folder when I go to ’Install’ tab but (0mb) instead. I even was able to browse and add files from my pc while phone was plugged in and in recovery mode, not anymore though.
Can anyone give me advice or help to get my oneplus 3 back in use? I have all the important files moved to my pc so I don’t mind losing files I have left in internal storage that much. Not if it’s necessary or easier workaround. thanks for reading this long-ass text :fingers-crossed:
EDIT: Issue SOLVED thanks to @AkR2014. I switched data partition from EXT4 to F2FS and then one more time back to EXT4 in TWRP's Wipe tab. (I was using latest blue_spark's TWRP-3.2.1-x version) and I was able to wipe data, system and both caches afterwards. After that I managed to flash new rom via USB-C to A with mounted USB flash drive on the other end and you know rest of the story. Do note that it WILL clear your internal storage so back up all the necessary files you need. And if you want to stay on F2FS data partition be sure to flash a ROM which supports it
EDIT2: There might be another way to mount your storage in TWRP but this is probably fail-proof method and worked for me
Oh and I couldn’t flash the Gapps in recovery after flashing the CosmicOs and nor I can’t now because of this haha. I can use my email though and send files through it from my another email if that helps

Wait, I think I found it. But the question is can and do I need to update the latest eng.stk’s TWRP through fastboot? And if so, is there instructions topic somewhere?
So here's the latest update: I flashed twrp-3.1.1-2 via fastboot but once I go to recovery it still doesn't let me browse files in /sdcard and if I put new password in OS it doesn't match in TWRP. I have a OS where I can boot to but no Gapps installed.
People say formatting data in TWRP would work, I'm just scared if that doesn't work and won't let me boot to OS anymore (even though I have a TWRP back up which I made before wiping my OxygenOS system data and caches in my pc as well in my phone's storage atm) and I can't flash anything in recovery mode, is there anything I could do? I'm in desperate need of help right now.
In this CosmicOS i am using Android 8.1.0 and I'm afraid something isn't supporting it or so.

So here's the latest update: I flashed twrp-3.1.1-2 via fastboot but once I go to recovery it still doesn't let me browse files in /sdcard and if I put new password in OS it doesn't match in TWRP. I have a OS where I can boot to but no Gapps installed.
People say formatting data in TWRP would work, I'm just scared if that doesn't work and won't let me boot to OS anymore (even though I have a TWRP back up which I made before wiping my OxygenOS system data and caches in my pc as well in my phone's storage atm) and I can't flash anything in recovery mode, is there anything I could do? I'm in desperate need of help right now.

As I said, flash eng.stk's TWRP. Simply flash the image to Recovery partition using the TWRP you already have. After that, wipe everything and clean flash the ROM. If anything goes wrong, you can use the Mega Unbrick guide method 2.

Thanks for the reply and link. I understood most of the parts except flashing the image to Recovery partition. Am I supposed to find the eng.stk’s TWRP from my Install tab in my current TWRP? Because it doesn’t show any files there. Also do I download the latest 3.2.1-x TWRP from the link you provided?

You will find TWRP 3.2.1-x v8.61 in the link I provided. Download that to your phone and save it. Restart your phone in recovery mode and in the current TWRP that you have, click the 'Install' button. By default, you will be shown zip files,if any. TWRP comes as an img file. So click the 'show img files' button at bottom right in TWRP and navigate to where you saved it and select it. Slide the bottom bar to install, you will be asked where to install it to. Select 'Recovery' and again slide the bar. It will be installed. To confirm, restart in recovery mode and check the version number of TWRP.
eng.stk's TWRP is compatible with OOS and custom ROMS. The offficial one doesn't work with some custom ROMs.

he is unable to mount storage via twrp , i have the sol but it will format your whole data / internal storage if your wiling to .
1 ) Go to twrp
2 ) wipe - > Advance wipe > change system file partation
3) if your on F2FS change to ext 4 or vice versa .
4 ) you will be able to mount sdcard
and dont flash this rom again , faceed same issue while flashing some oreo rom .

Thanks man :highfive: I have really nothing to lose anyways so I gotta try that lol. How can I know whether I am on F2FS or EXT 4 though? And once it’s done can I access to my phone storage while it’s in recovery mode and just paste new rom to internal storage? Or do I need to push the rom via adb while in fastboot mode? Thinking to try out Paranoid rom which is based on Nougat, right?

Thanks for clarification tnsmani, appreciate the time you put into it. But as the person who replied to your text, I cannot mount the storage in TWRP which would prevent me of flashing pretty much anything on phone in TWRP.

If you are able to boot into fastboot mode, you can install TWRP through ADB.
But you can not copy, paste in TWRP.

Great to hear that. Though I don’t have Gapps installed. Accidentally tried to flash the wrong one before the mounting problem occurred and now you know rest of the story :laugh:
I’ll try to find another way to check it though. Oh and as well as the ROM

TWRP 3.5.2_11.0 for Oneplus Nord N100 (Android 11)

Test version of custom Team Win Recovery Project version 3.5.2_11.0 for OnePlus Nord N100 (Android 11 Only).
Everything works, except for:
MTP, .img firmware (for this you need to flash the full super.img image) and decryption of the Data section.
If anyone can modify this version of the recovery, we are very grateful to the future.
In the meantime, whoever wants to test or try it out, an image will be attached to the post. You can both boot (fastboot boot twrp.img) and flash (fastboot flash recovery_a twrp.img and fastboot flash recovery_b twrp.img).
I ask you to answer about all the problems found and write either to me personally or in this topic.
Is there any newer version of this? i find this one freezes the phone a lot. thanks
I ran this TWRP for the OnePlus N100 in fastboot and it worked but I can't see any files. I've installed Android 11.
I'm trying to install Magisk zip but in TWRP I only see the folder tree and no files.
Do I need to install TWRP and not just run it from fastboot?
If I need to install it do I pick slot a or b or both?
Thanks for any help.

do not install it. I installed it and it bricked my device. I needed to flash the stock recovery.

It installed fine on my BE2013. Not extremely useful without the missing features though.

Honestly I haven't even tried flashing anything because I already have magisk and i had some issues with safety net that I didn't want to risk having to fix again.

I didn't. I patched firmware boot image and flashed through bootloader. However I just tried flashing from TWRP.
I put the zip on external SD because this version doesn't support decryption of data partition. I then entered the "mount" menu in TWRP and mounted external SD and then tapped "select storage" and selected external SD.
You should be able to flash it now. It didn't give any errors, but i didn't uninstall magisk first so don't know how well it actually worked.
I also don't know if you can do anything without external SD or without root access already.

If you go with the boot image method I wouldn't mind helping you out.

I had high hopes...
I fastbooted the TWRP, I didn't install it but I don't think that would make a difference.
I put the Magisk zip on the external SD card and from within TWRP I had no problem mounting the SD card but I still couldn't see any files, just a folder tree, and every folder empty.
When you run TWRP and mount the SD card can you see the files within the folders on the card?

Yes. It is important that you tap "select storage" and select "micro sd". After i did that i entered "flash" and immediately saw folders and zips on my external sd. In file manager i could see all files and even deleted some from there.
From root directory it's in /external_sd not in /storage.
Edit: Even though i also don't think installing TWRP makes a difference, i don't know if that's the case.
I should mention i used "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img" not "... recovery_a" or "... recovery_b".
I don't know if this changes something with access
Honestly patching boot image is probably less of a headache. I can even send the images pre-patched if you want. Just one fastboot command
I'd need to know your phone variant and update version.

Well, I don't think you have the file I need.
My N100 is a model BE2015, build number 11.0.1BE82CF
I just fastbooted TWRP again and I'm mounting and selecting external_sd but still zero files.
If I flash the TWRP with "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img" is there a way to reverse it if I ever need to?
Again thanks for the help.

Well that might be the problem. That's a carrier locked phone, right? I'm not really familiar with those. I just know they are complicated to mod.
Not sure if you'll even be able to flash recovery and I'm surprised you can fastboot boot. But in theory, (at least on unlocked phones) if you can flash TWRP, you can flash stock recovery from firmware package.
I saw a quite extensive and fairly complicated guide to fully unlock a carrier phone here on XDA, but don't know how well it works or if you have followed any of these steps.
Edit: Also found this, looks like it works with your device: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4245499/

Let me start by saying my phone is both SIM unlocked and bootloader unlocked.
The post you linked is talking about the same phone as me but the last post in that thread has an ominous post from someone on Android 11 bricking after trying that. I'm not sure if that works if you're already on 11.
I still can't understand why the TWRP can't see files on my SD card. I think the two missing elements are the fact that you have TWRP flashed to your phone and you're rooted already.
I really can't understand why being rooted would have anything to do with TWRP seeing the files on the SD card so I'm leaning toward it being flashed that's the difference.
I would like to try flashing TWRP but I'm still unsure how, plus I'm guessing I have no recovery if that goes awry.
If I could just get the zip fashed it should patch my boot.img and give me root fairly easily.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to ways back if the TWRP flash goes bad plus just what command do I use to flash it and what happens to the other slot?
.
Okay, so...
I have now tried flashing stock boot and stock recovery on both a and b, verified no root access, then trying "boot twrp.img"
Still able to see files on micro sd.
I then attempted to flash magisk zip to verify this method working.
Didn't seem to work at first, but i think this was due to me messing something up with active slot. Fastbooted into twrp again and flashed magisk again and it works.
So, in short; This absolutely works on a BE2013, but this recovery might not play well with your BE2015.
OP asks about potential problems so maybe you'll have luck messaging him and you could investigate together? Just a suggestion.
I'm sorry, but I really don't know how to help with that model. It's problematic that there's no firmware payload available. If you find one or if you can somehow dump the boot image from the phone then I'd be optimistic and happy to help any way I can.
