Bricked for 8 months - Realme X2 Questions & Answers

Ever since Feb of this year my Realme X2 has never been fix, there's no solution for the Boot Image has been destroyed. So I had no choice but two just keep it on my cabinet for months now. I can't bring it to a repair center of Realme since this was bought in China. So I have up in the idea that this will never be fix and I just wasted money for that phone.

Did you unlock the bootloader? have you tried holding all 3 buttons ? (power vol - vol +) if you've unlocked bootloader phone will reboot into bootloader but you have a short time to flash a recovery and bring your phone back to life. if nothing works then the only thing you can do is sending the phone back to china for recovery.

See if the below video might help you un-brick your device.

Unfortunately I relocked my bootloader so that explains the problem, I can't boot into recovery nor in fastboot. So I lost hope on this already.

phone back from repair and bootloader unlocked ?

Hey.
had a problem with nexus ( maybe still have)
Gave it to O2 for repair.
Picked phone back today and Ive noticed that bootloader is unlocked ( wasn't)
as they have downloaded old software on the phone 4.0.1 , phone found new update.
When installing it, it came out with red exclamation mark .... after taking battery out, it wont find the update again....
had unlocked bootloader anything to do with updating ? how do I update now ?
How do I lock it back ? or is it better to leave it like it is ? what are advantages ??

leave it unlocked learn to flash recovery then learn to flash ROMs and you can have 4.0.4 today

1) wait for the OTA update to arrive, or 2) see here.

Reboot into fastboot mode, plug into your computer (assuming you have the driver installed), open a command prompt in the same directory as your fastboot.exe file and type: fastboot oem lock

Yes, it is better to leave it unlocked.

If it is unlocked, you can use fastboot commands to flash images to your device - this may alleviate a lot of heartache later on. If you lock the bootloader, and you need to unlock it again, it will wipe all of your data (including anything stored on /sdcard).
thanks for all answers...
I have find out that they flashed my phone with yakjuxw and thats the reason it won't update I think
I was about to flash it last night, but I have noticed that the issue which was reason for me to give phone for repair is still there...
So will hold up with it and give it back to repair on Monday...again...

How can totally restore my phone to factory defaults ? !!

the case here is that my volume rocker and power buttons are a bit laggy that i some times have to click 5 or 6 times in order for them to work ... and my phone is still under warranty so i sent it to get repaired they told my they need to change the main board and that i broke the warranty terms by installing CM7 and unlocking boatloader and they told me also that if i could restore the phone exactly as it was they would repair it so please tell me how to restore every thing exactly as it was i mean ( relocking the boatloader installing stock rom etc.... ) and please with links
beacuse i only have like 1 week left before warranty ends and i need to restore it AFAP
many thanks in advance
You can install the stock ROM's from here. Then re-lock the bootloader (I think they can still see the bootloader was unlocked.)
Hope they don't notice that the bootloader was unlocked. :good:

M8 won't boot anymore - sometimes Bootloader and Recovery works

Hi,
i got a m8 which i unlocked via htcdev and it want to send it for warranty repair now.
The problem is that the phone won't boot!
I plug in the charger and nothing happens. After a couple of MINUTES the led shows up and the phone charges. But only sometimes.
With a little luck i can get into recovery and reinstall Viper or Leedroid ROM. But after successfuly installing the phone won't reboot and just turns off after the htc screen.
No matter what i try, it doesn't boot. But from time to time i can reach recovery.
So what can i do with in bootloader or recovery?
The biggest problem is the htc screen which is full of the red "not official release" stuff. How can i put this back to stock?
Thanks
Daniel
it would help greatly if we knew your CID and MID.
It's a unlocked non-carrier phone from germany. I think HTC_102 but i'm not absolutely sure.
Now nothing happens anymore besides the phone shows up as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM20)" in the device manager. When putting the Charger / Cable in the charging light flashes one time. If i put the charger just halfway in it lights up for about 2-3 seconds and turns off.

They won't take it back for warranty, because by unlocking the bootloader, you void your warranty. Your best bet is to flash RUU. Can you get the computer to recognize the phone by fastboot? Can you get the phone to boot into boot loader at all?
And also, have you made any modification prior to the incident other than unlocking bootloader?

At the moment - no. It won't even boot into bootloader. The last try is now a new battery. I opened it because HTC refuses the warranty anyway and maybe the battery is the problem. I don't think so but for 6 Euros I give it a try.

What modifications have you made to the phone prior to the incident other than unlocking the boot loader? Custom ROM, custom kernel or TWRP

This is the strange thing. I sent my m8 to HTC and they replaced the Mainboard. So the phone was completely new and stock. As the warranty was in the last days after this i immediately unlocked the bootloader officially using htcdev. Then I installed TWRP and MIUI 7 after this. Then I noticed the first time the phone was not turning on. It happened after unlocking but as I did the unlock immediately it maybe wasn't because of it. But as it is not my main phone I didn't really care and put it away. Now, about 3 months later I want to use it as my main phone for drone flying and I flashed Viper ROM and after it didn't boot LeeDroid. And now it doesn't turn on no matter what I do. Before I could manage to get into bootloader sometimes at least. I think the new main board has a defect but after 3 months, with no warranty and HTC unlocked they don't give a ****.

Yeah if you unlock the boot loader, you void your warranty

I know but I didn't make something wrong. I unlocked every bootloader of every phone and tablet I ever had so I think it's even the battery or a defective replacement Mainboard.

IDK but im going to say to try to boot into bootloader and the problem would be much easier to solve. If you manage to boot into bootloader, don't exit it and post here the 'fastboot getvar all' command on here. use this link from my google drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2FyBGshXWIxeHdPRy1zWXdwM1E/view?usp=sharing to get the adb.zip if you have a windows computer. extract the zip file, go into the adb bundle folder, sdk, platform-tool press shift and right click at the same time and select open command prompt here and type in fastboot getvar all (your phone have to be in fastboot mode.in bootloader, select fastboot) and post the results here.

i have the same issue of not able to get into recovery but able to go into fastboot while trying to boot normally just gets stuck at logo phone is able to charge. Showed to a local repair shop who says its a power ic issue searched web where someone mentioned about issue w flash memory (this was for some samsung phone not sure if it applies to mi). I have no clue does anyone know how i can eliminate some of my doubs step by step?
1. I think it may be my power/volume button strip but i dont know how can i test thee device without the strip (i have some schematics) .
2. Maybe Rom issue and since bootloader is locked and no usb debugging enabled nor i can unlock it using official tool since it requires me to go to developer settings and link my mi account i cant flash anything (though i came across some posts claiming you can bypass edl authorization using 2017-18 flash tools and anti5 test i dont have a clue as to what to do).
3. due to recent conflicts i cannot access mi india forums and nor can download proper official stock rom( since its my relatives phone i dont know what version it was on )
4. the phone was dropped previously which cracked the glass but was in working condition for more than 3-4 months atleast .Cant find any trace of water damage inside.
5. got some schematics from web by searching here and there but i dont know how to troubleshoot lol.
Any help would be appreciated , i cannot trust local technicians as there have been past incidences of missing parts from device after they keep for a day and return next day(skeptical if there are some parts missing or replaced w defective ones ).
Will update if i get it working.
