how much time it takes for flashinf, after following all your steps :confusedtool is stuck on the same think for almost 20 min, please help me and let me know what i can do
SP Tools link broken!
Unable to download SP Tools. Please help!
Seems i bricked it
I was earlier a user of this device and had tried several ROMs. Was experimenting with few custom ROM's on my friends device (Canvas 4)
After flashing a ROM (S5 ROM) posted on this forum, i was getting some errors in CWM:
can't mount /cache/recovery/log
and it refused to flash anymore ROM's.Left with no other option, i thought of flashing back the stock ROM and then rooting agn to flash a custom rom.
However, even the stock ROM didn't flash, i was getting an error
BROM ERROR : S_DA_SDMMC_WRITE_FAILED (3149)
I googled a bit and some forums suggested to format flash tp resolve this error. I did that and that worked and got a green circle with Format Ok.
Again, i tried flashing the stock ROM and now got a new error in SP Tools:
BROM ERROR: S_DL_PMT_ERR_NO_SPACE (5069)
I am stuck at this point and not able to flash the stock ROM. After loading the scatter file, only flashing of Preloader works. Remaining all is stuck.
Running a memory test on SP tools gives an error that
NAND FLASH WAS NOT DETECTED
Please help me out, i have spoiled my friends device and need to fix it ASAP.
The masters here, please help out - @shiv.guddadmath @kannanrs @gamerboy_010 @rishivg @FSadino @pranjal18 @NeroD @rahilj007 @Yash98 @jayadev01
@satsmagic,
I encountered this and if i remember right, this has been reported before. S5 Rom does spoil the recovery and it is repairable.
With SPTools, use the Firmware Upgrade option instead of the Download. This will set it right and try a stock rom first. I used Pranjal's ROM and it worked. Please try and report. Of course, you can flash any rom after that.
Greetings...

@kannanrs thanks for replyiing back, i think i had tried that on stock ROM but i tried again using Pranjal's ROM, doesnt work :crying::crying:
Please see the error screen attached
seems m stuck badly and lost it:crying:
If i do download only, i get Error 5069 (S_DL_PMT_ERR_NO_SPACE)
the red and purple bars do complete 100% in both cases
And i used S5 ROM from the below link by @rishivg, it never said it breaks the recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/canvas-4/development/samsung-galaxy-s5-rom-a210-t3324837
@satsmagic
Almost all, that flashed the S5 rom released by me, encountered this problem, including me. But the rom bettered all expectations.
And only when we need to check another rom did we encounter this.
This happened to me at all times when i tested this rom for answering the questions then. Its now 4 months that my canvas4 died a graceful death and beyond repair. So I am unable to test and tell you. Rishi can dare to test and report this and probably drive a nail to end this problem for you, if he can afford to risk a bit and probably rubal and vikas who helped me when this happened. I will ask them to comment also....
Theres a thread in the A116 or A110 forum which i will share here soon...
Cheers!!!!

as expected the srvice center guy said, prblm with motherboard, get it replaced, i dnt think so. SP tools still detects the phone and flashes preloader, then comes error 5068
On searching for the NAND FLASH WAS NOT DETECTED, i found on some forums that if we have a back up of FLash from other device with stock ROM then it can be helpful, see below link (post #33 & 34)
http://www.chinaphonearena.com/foru...NAND-Flash-MT6589-MT6577-MT6582-MT6572?page=4
I presume stock rom should have that but still can someone provide me the same as mentioned in these post. M not sure hw to make tht backup but if anyone here knows that
or a back up using MTK Droid Root and Tools, see below link, it says if its detected its not dead
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943442

i have stock ROM, but that doesn't sort out the prblm.

Your phone in under the above mentioned title mode. One thing you can do is to reflash the bootloader and bring it back into flashable state.

how i can do this? bu sp flash tools? help pliz
Hi,
So today suddenly my phone restarted and after that it was stuck on the micromax logo, I coudnt get into recovery either. So I tried to flash the stock kitkat rom using sp tools, it did manage to flash it the first time but the phone after that wont start at all, nothing not even the charging screen.
Is it bricked for good? I tried to flash it again but if I choose firmware upgrade or download+firmware upgrade in sp tools I get the pmt info error. Is there any way to get the phone back to a working state? Any help would be much apprecited.
Note: I did look through the old post on the similar topic where the guy managed to solve the problem by using a latest version of sp tools, Im already using the latest version , no dice.
Did you get anywhere with this to unbrick the device as I have similar with a GDP XP and it wont now boot or show charge its just dead!
Any help on fixing this would be great as we cant be alone with this. ATB
My Canvas A1 isn't booting at all (nothing happens when power button is pressed),My phone has been unstable for quite some time now.Initially, I installed MIUI 8 and it crashed after one month or so.Then I installed Stock MM optimized version from XDA and it went well for sometime.Then after a month's period even stock OS crashed.Rebooted and stuck at bootloop.
After that I tried reinstalling the same OS but it always stuck at bootloop.
Hence,I went with SP Flashtool.Tried flashing (Download Only option) Official Lollipop FlashFile available here on XDA,it did flash successfully but phone wouldn't boot.
Next,tried All Format+Download option and again it flashed successfully but now nothing happens not even micromax logo shows up.Hence,I believe I have hard bricked my phone have tried every option that I could think of but to no avail.
I need expert advice on this hence posting it now.
Please Help.
Thanking in advance.
