Is your Android device not booting up? It could be because of hardware, software, or firmware error. This week, Kannon Yamada explains how to diagnose startup problems for unmodified Android devices, and how to fix them.

First something went wrong when I tried to update my smartphone to the newest version of Android. It got stuck in a boot-loop. Searching online, I found that I need to flash it with a new ROM (short for Read Only Memory).
However the ROM flashing program on my computer could not find my phone, even though it can be recognized (as an Android phone) within Windows Device Manager. Is there any way to repair my phone, or should I be hunting for a new one?
Kannon’s Reply:
My recommendation: Use the phone’s recovery or bootloader first instead of attempting to install a custom ROM (what’s a custom ROM?What Is Rooting? What Are Custom ROMs?

The troubleshooting outline contained here will not deal with installing custom ROMs. Nor will it include detailed instructions for those of you who decided to install a custom ROM on their device. There are just too many variables that could go wrong. It instead deals with the symptoms that different kinds of unbootable devices display, and how to repair those issues.
A Note to the Reader
The reader asking the question suffers from two separate issues: The first is that Windows fails to recognize the phone using Android Debug Bridge (ADB) drivers. The second: The phone suffers from a failed Over-the-Air (OTA) update, which induced a boot loop. I address both of these issues separately, really under “Unbootable Scenario #3″ and the Minimal Fastboot and ADB program, under “What are the Android Tools for Recovery?“.
Some additional concerns: You probably don’t have access to a custom recovery, like TWRP or ClockWorkMod (what’s a custom recovery?What's a Custom Recovery? Exploring CWM, TWRP, and FriendsWhat's a Custom Recovery? Exploring CWM, TWRP, and FriendsIf you've ever considered tinkering with your Android device, you've probably read that you need to flash a custom recovery onto it before you can do anything serious. But, that begs some questions.Read More), it’s just a modified version of a standard recovery environment. I recommend that everyone who installs a custom ROM also install the recovery (why you need a custom recovery6 Key Tips To Avoid Bricking Your Rooted Android Device6 Key Tips To Avoid Bricking Your Rooted Android DeviceWhen you own a rooted Android phone running a custom ROM, you need to take some precautions or risk 'bricking' (destroying) your device.Read More). But the bootloader works fine if you’re just performing a factory reset. Unfortunately, you need the custom recovery in order to perform a full backup over your operating system.
Change charger and cable: Everyone should use a power source and USB cable that they know works and which supplies the necessary amperage. If an improper or damaged charging apparatus is used, the user’s device may not charge and will only appear to be broken. A deep-discharged battery may require overnight charging.
What to do After Android Fails to Boot?
When an Android smartphone or tablet stops booting, there are two questions that you need to ask yourself: Is the fault hardware or software related (for simplicity I lump software and firmware into the same category)?
A successful diagnosis requires observation. Does the Android device do anything out of the ordinary? And what did the user do to the device prior to boot failure? The answer to both questions can solve, or explain, boot failure.
Four common categories of unbootable device exist:
- Unbootable Scenario #1: No charging light, not warm after charging, not detected after plugging into a desktop or laptop computer, no Android boot screen;
- Unbootable Scenario #2: Charging light turns on, detected after plugging into desktop or laptop, no Android boot screen.
- Unbootable Scenario #3: Boot screen continually displays, system freezes or constantly reboots;
- Unbootable Scenario #4: System does not boot and displays an error message on a black screen;
![Bootanimtool Pro Cracked Bootanimtool Pro Cracked](/uploads/1/2/4/9/124958433/383565549.png)
Before repairing the issue, we need to explain the various tools and tricks at the Android user’s disposal:
What are the Android Tools for Recovery?
There’s a metaphorical arsenal of tools for fixing Android boot problems. Here’s the most common:
- Bootloader (or recovery) factory reset;
- Bootloader (or recovery) cache wipe;
- Software recovery toolkit;
- Android Safe Mode;
- Battery pull;
- Soft and hard reboots;
How to Use an Android Bootloader?
A bootloader enables users to load different bootable portions (or partitions) of their operating system. It allows users to select between booting a recovery partition or their operating system. When the operating system cannot boot, the bootloader can restore the original factory-fresh operating system.
Manufacturers also include options within either the recovery or bootloader to wipe the device’s cache. Wiping a corrupted cache can similarly fix boot issues. However, each device manufacturer differs in the kind of tools and features available within the pre-boot (or bootloader) environment. They also differ in how users enter this environment.
Here’s an example of what my bootloader looks like on a Moto X 2014:
As you can see, there are multiple options available. The most salient (on an unmodified device): the Factory, or Factory Reset option.
Factory Reset an Unbootable Android Device
The most common way is to turn the device off. Next, press and hold power and volume down. Then while holding power and volume down, wait until the device vibrates softly and enters into the Android bootloader (or recovery). Note: Some manufacturers use the volume up button, instead of volume down.
Again, these environments differ from manufacturer to manufacturer, but most include all the same basic features.
Select Factory Reset using your volume keys to scroll and power button to select an option. The device then initiates a restoration of its original factory-new state. It should reboot and begin a long re-initialization process. However, if you’ve installed a custom ROM, exercise the utmost caution in whether or not you use the Recovery or bootloader to initiate the factory reset process. Generally speaking, if you’ve modified your system, perform the factory reset from the custom recovery (what’s a custom recovery?What's a Custom Recovery? Exploring CWM, TWRP, and FriendsWhat's a Custom Recovery? Exploring CWM, TWRP, and FriendsIf you've ever considered tinkering with your Android device, you've probably read that you need to flash a custom recovery onto it before you can do anything serious. But, that begs some questions.Read More).
Also keep in mind that the volume keys don’t always function as directional keys. On Motorola phones, the volume up button selects an option and the volume down button scrolls through the options.
Bootloader Access Variations
To my knowledge there are four different kinds of key combinations that allow users to load their bootloader. Users must perform these key combinations from a powered off state:
- Power + volume up
- Power + volume down
- Power + volume up + volume down
- Samsung’s method (see below)
If you find it difficult locating the bootloader, keep in mind that not all manufacturers refer to their bootloader by name. Some (particularly Samsung) refer to it by a trade name (although Android includes its own version of Download Mode). You should concern yourself with finding the factory reset option. If in doubt, use a search engine.
Here’s a great video which describes some of the byzantine variations in how users factory reset their device. Some devices allow a factory reset by simply tapping buttons while booting. Others require booting into the bootloader:
Samsung Download Mode
Unfortunately, many of the major device manufacturers use differing methods of reaching the bootloader (or other modes). Samsung refers to their pre-boot recovery environment as Download mode. Because Samsung devices can include a physical home button, they sometimes use this as a means of accessing the pre-boot environment. Here’s a quick tutorial on how to boot into Samsung’s Download mode:
Because of the tremendous variation in Samsung devices, you need to perform an Internet search on how to access your particular smartphone model’s Download Mode.
How to Use an Android Bootloader or Recovery to Wipe a Cache?
Another repair option resides inside of the Android pre-boot environment. Most manufacturers include an option to wipe the cache partition from within the recovery, but I’ve heard of the bootloader including this feature as well. There are two kinds of caches: The Dalvik cache or the system cache. Android 5.0 and above only includes the system cache because it uses ART compilation (ART increases Android speedDoes Switching To ART Speed Up Your Android KitKat Device?Does Switching To ART Speed Up Your Android KitKat Device?Is ART best left alone until Google decides to roll it out as a working replacement for Dalvik?Read More), which makes wiping the cache simpler.
To wipe the cache, boot into the Android bootloader and select the recovery option.
Some manufacturers at this point require additional key presses in order to wipe the cache partition. For example, my Moto X requires pressing and holding the power button and volume down.
Then select wipe cachepartition from the options. When it finishes wiping the cache, reboot.
How to Use a Software Recovery Toolkit and Other Options?
Recovery toolkits range from manufacturer to manufacturer. Nexus devices receive access to several different variations, like WugFresh. Then there’s Samsung’s Kies toolkit option. Other software tools include Minimal Fastboot and Koush’s Universal ADB Drivers.
Minimal ADB and Fastboot Toolkit
The easiest method to access ADB: the Minimal ADB and Fastboot installable tool. Minimal ADB and Fastboot allows users to employ ADB commands and Fastboot, without downloading the Android Software Development Kit (SDK), which contains a lot of tools you don’t need. It’s easier and less prone to error than using the whole SDK, which is a fairly large download. I should note that Fastboot requires a special bootloader in order to work, which some unmodified Android devices do not receive access to.
The biggest advantage of Minimal ADB: You get an ADB driver package, along with the tools required for connecting your device to a Windows computer.
Simply download Minimal Fastboot and install it.
Here’s a video on how to use ADB (if you installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot, you don’t need the Android SDK):
Koush’s Universal ADB Drivers
If you can’t connect a device to a Windows computer using the ADB protocol, then I recommend installing Koush’s Universal ADB Drivers [No Longer Available]. Here’s a short guide on connecting Android to Windows via ADBAndroid Won't Connect to Windows Over ADB? Fix It in Three Easy StepsAndroid Won't Connect to Windows Over ADB? Fix It in Three Easy StepsHaving trouble connecting your Android device to your PC via ADB? We got you covered.Read More. The drivers enable Windows to recognize Android devices.
Android devices use two different protocols – and drivers – for connecting to a desktop computer. ADB allows users to access the file structure of the Android operating system, which in turns allows users to restore the original firmware, and a lot more. For unbootable devices, this allows users to install the correct drivers, which then opens the door to interacting with your phone’s operating system.
Koush’s Universal ADB Drivers provides an alternative to downloading and installing and configuring the entire Android SDK for your device. It covers the vast majority of Android smartphones and tablets, but not all. You may want to try installing your official drivers first – and if that fails — install Koush’s drivers. Remember that this step only opens the door to dealing with boot problems. An ADB connection requires that you first enable ADB access in an already functional system. If your phone fails to boot and you haven’t enabled ADB, you can’t use this step.
How to Use Android Safe Mode?
Android’s Safe Mode functions similarly to Windows Safe ModeHow to Boot Into Windows 10 Safe ModeHow to Boot Into Windows 10 Safe ModeSafe Mode is an inbuilt troubleshooting feature that allows you to fix issues at the root, without non-essential applications interfering. You can access Safe Mode in various ways, even if Windows 10 no longer boots.Read More, meaning it loads the operating system without any third party software. This prevents malware or buggy software from interrupting the boot process. There are variations on how to enter Safe Mode — the most important for an unbootable device is from a powered off state. Simply hold power, volume up, and volume down until the Android boot screen displays. After the boot symbol displays, release the power button, but continue holding the volume buttons until the operating system fully loads. You should notice grayed-out icons and the words “Safe Mode” in the lower left side of the screen.
Users can then uninstall malware or dysfunctional applications as they would normally.
In Android Gingerbread (2.3) and below, from a powered-off state, hold the power button down until Safe Mode launches.
How to Pull a Battery on Android?
A battery pull requires temporarily disconnecting a smart-device’s battery. This method offers a near bullet-proof means of resetting an Android device – particularly if it’s locked into the so-called sleep of death, where the device refuses to power on. Unfortunately, most modern flagship phones no longer include a removable rear cover. Some even solder the battery into the device, to prevent user-replacement of the battery.
Performing a battery pull requires simply removing the rear cover and disconnecting the battery. Some devices make removing the rear cover (such as replacing the Nexus 4 batteryHow To Replace The Nexus 4 Battery (It Can Be Done) [Android]How To Replace The Nexus 4 Battery (It Can Be Done) [Android]Got a dead or worn-out Nexus 4 battery? Replacing the defective battery is dead-simple – simply crack your phone open, pry the old battery out and pop in a fresh one. However, unless you want...Read More) not very difficult. Even the Nexus 5 and 5X rear covers aren’t hard to remove.
After dislodging the rear case, simply detaching the battery connector from the battery will disrupt power to the device, and effectively perform a hard reset. Don’t remove the battery from the device. Then reconnect it and boot back up.
How to Perform a Hard or Soft Reset on Android?
The two quickest options available to Android users for resetting their devices: Hard and soft resets.
Hard Reset
A hard reset restores the operating system back to its original, factory-fresh state. Performing a hard reset requires entering the Android bootloader (or recovery).
First, power the device off. Then hold down the power and volume down buttons until the bootloader displays. Then choose any option that sounds like a Factory Reset. For example, my Motorola bootloader only displays “Factory”, which is the same as Factory Reset. Choosing this option restores the phone to its factory new condition.
If this option fails, it could mean that the recovery partition is corrupted. Oftentimes installing a custom ROM can erase the recovery partition, which contains a complete copy of the original operating system. Losing this partition can greatly impede repair efforts.
Here’s a video on how to perform a hard reset:
Soft Reset
Performing a soft reset is dead simple on the vast majority of Android devices: Just hold the power button down for 10 seconds. Within 10 seconds, the device should reboot.
This method doesn’t always work, but its reliability and simplicity make it a first option on phones with boot issues.
Here’s a video on how to perform a soft reset:
Unbootable Android Scenarios
There are several issues to consider if your Android phone won’t boot at all.
Unbootable Scenario #1: No Lights, No Signs of Life
Your Android device displays the following symptoms:
- The charging indicator does not turn on when plugged into a power source;
- Performing a hard reboot doesn’t reboot the device;
- Your device doesn’t show up as connected when plugged into a PC;
- When plugged into a power source, the phone and power adapter don’t feel warm;
- No Android boot screen;
It could suffer from a damaged power adapter or microUSB cable. Change these and make sure the power adapter supplies the necessary amperage (normally at least 1.5 mA). Then plug the device into a computer and (in Windows) check in Windows Device Manager to see if the computer detects whether or not the Android device connects.
Under Android Devices you might see the device connected. That means it’s recognized by the computer. That means it’s not dead.
First, leave it charging for several hours. Next, attempt a Soft Reset. If that fails, then perform a hard reset. If that fails, attempt a battery pull. If a battery pull fails (or if it has a non-removable battery), plug it into a computer to see if it is recognized. If that fails, then the device might suffer from a bad battery or damaged mainboard. You will need to return the device to the manufacturer for repair.
If plugging it into a computer succeeds and you have access to either Fastboot or ADB, then you might be able to install the original operating system, provided the manufacturer allows users to download factory images of their operating system.
Unbootable Scenario #2: Some Signs of Life
Your Android device displays the following symptoms:
- Charging light turns on when connected to a power source;
- Detected after plugging into desktop or laptop;
- No Android boot screen;
In this scenario, the device shows some signs of life, but doesn’t fully function. It could suffer from a damaged power adapter or microUSB cable. Change these and make sure the power adapter supplies the necessary amperage (normally at least 1.5 amp).
First, leave it charging for several hours to make sure it’s fully charged. Next, perform a soft reset. If that fails, attempt to boot into the bootloader. If that succeeds, perform a factory reset. If that fails, the device may require a licensed technician.
Unbootable Scenario #3: Bootloop
If you installed a custom ROM, then a bootloop can be far more severe than on a stock, unmodified device. Bootloops often occur because of a damaged operating system or a malicious app.
- Boot screen continually displays, system does not boot;
- Sometimes occurs after a failed OTA update;
First, try a soft reset. If that fails, try booting the device in Safe Mode. If that fails (or if you don’t have access to Safe Mode), try booting the device up through its bootloader (or recovery) and wiping the cache (if you use Android 4.4 and below, wipe the Dalvik cache as well) and reboot. If that fails, you must employ more drastic methods: Reboot into the bootloader and perform a factory reset. If that fails, the device might require service from a licensed technician.
If you understand how to use Fastboot, you might want to check this video out:
Unbootable Scenario #4: System boots, but displays error message(s)
These kinds of error messages appear for both hardware and software faults. A variety of error messages will display if the core operating system files suffer from damage. Also, a defective eMMC drive (its hard drive) can corrupt data.
- If you modified your operating system in any way, such as through acquiring root access or installing a custom ROM.
- If an OTA software update failed;
- If the device displays a dead Android;
First, attempt a soft reset. If that fails, boot into the bootloader and attempt a factory reset (AKA hard reset). If that fails, attempt to wipe the cache. If that fails, your options become limited. You can attempt to reflash a system image using a toolkit or manually using the ADB. Otherwise, the device might require a licensed technician in order to properly restore its operating system.
Android Boot Problems?
The simplest method of dealing with an unbootable Android device is working with the bootloader environment. Unlike most installations of the Windows operating system, Android offers users a clear and easy method of resetting their device back to factory-fresh condition. When the recovery fails (or simply doesn’t work), users still can repair their device using other means, such as ADB.
If, in some unforeseen scenario, you end up bricking your device, try these recovery methods to unbrick your Android device.

- it says that i should send it to a lincensed techinician but my phone has no brand and there are no technicians to fix it...
- Repairing a phone that doesn't have a brand is probably more expensive than buying a new or used one.
- I'm using samsung galaxy j7 a model of 2106. I rooted it and it was working good, but then i thought to switch it from custom rom to the stock rom. So i downloaded a stock rom file and tried to flash it with odin3 v3.10. The stock rom file contained 4 diffrent files, from which the bootloader file was failing the process. So i skiped the BL file and flashed it with remaining 3 files and I succeeded. But as soon as phone started, it was not detecting sim cards. It is a dual sim phone and both the slots are unable to detect sim cards. I think the problem was caused due to the file i skiped.
Now when again rooted my phone problem still remains the same.. No matter what i do, i can't resolve it. I even tried downloading different stock rom files, but every file's bootloader file was causing problem, even the file i downloaded from the site sammobile.com was also failed.. Please help, what should i do? - Hi Sir,
My phone is ASUS Zenfone Live. Whenever I tried to charge my Phone It doesn't show any lights just the CSC Fastboot Mode. And when I plug it in my computer it it is unrecognizable.
What should i do with this phone? - HI
MY android phone is stuck on its boot screen. Earlier it was processing two to three seconds of boot animation and would return back to the same and this would go in loop. But now it's only stuck on boot screen, showing Micromax Powered by Android and that's it.
Tell me what to do. I have got data in my phone :( - kobo arc 7, android jellybean, never rooted or installed custom rom, won't turn on properly, only displays first boot screen and never changes, not detected by computer, tried to enter recovery mode but it just restarted normally which didn't work
- Ok, so, I have an A23 GA10H tablet, whenever I try to do something, it just turns on, displays the logo and that's it. ADB can't detect it, not in adb devices nor fastboot devices (all drivers are installed), when i plug it in, it instantly turns on displaying the android logo, same as with turning it on. Cannot access recovery mode, computer detects it but displays and an unknown device. Last thing i did was to try and do a fastboot recovery with a recovery.img, but then i noticed i was not where the recovery.img was, so now the tabled is practically dead.
- hello sir,my phone is asus zenfone max.i tried to install custom rom.but after i done reboot then phone didnt switched on (Unbootable Scenario #1: No Lights, No Signs of Life) problem.but when i plug to laptop it detected but i didnt get solution part pls help me...
thank you - I swappedl default storage and boot image lost bootloader is on . huawei y6
- Can you elaborate a little more on what you've done to the device? It sounds as if you may have installed a custom ROM. That can cause all kinds of issues.
- I once bricked my lenovo a6000 and when ever i try to reset it or flash other custom ROM it get stuck in the bootloop.
- There are a lot of different kinds of causes for bootloops. Most of the time it's caused by not following the instructions for flashing a ROM to the letter. Other times, it can be caused by not flashing from the right version of Android.

Help pls. - Hi I have a MOTO G 2nd Gen. It won't boot or show any LED light when a wall charger is plugged in. I have to disconnect the battery, only then will the LED light come on. Next is to enter bootloader and choosing NORMAL BOOT. I then reconnect the battery and trigger the NORMAL BOOT option. It then boots up. Phone runs fine, having done a full factory reset and battery shows 90+%. HOWEVER, the moment the screen goes off. I can't power it up anymore and have to repeat the above process to boot. Any idea what could be wrong? I've already done all the scenarios in your posts. I've also tried holding down the POWER button for up to 5 minutes too, but unsuccessful.
- Thanks for your reply. I was watching a youtube guy doing it. His was the moto G1. So I followed his method by disconnecting the battery. I do not have a custom rom, it's pure stock rom. Yes, your statement is what as I had described. Guess I will bring it to a shop to repair it, that's provided it's not too expensive.Thanks again. Appreciate your reply.
- i am using spice android one . 10 days back i have flashed a rom it worked properly one day my google play store was show unfortunately google play store has stopped , so i just turned off the phone after that it stuck on boot logo , i have waited for 1 day still it is showing same problem, then i decided to wipe data with recovery mode , it is showing INVALID ARGUMENT ,fastboot oem unlock is also not working,it show to conform after conformation it automatically locks , i have wiped every thing with fastboot including bootloader ,system image etc ,Now my phone is not showing any thing , even it is not turning on ,Is there any hope to recover this phone
- I have a galaxy note 4 and yesterday I did a factory reset and now the phone is stuck in recovery mode but it flashes so I can't see anything! How do I fix that?
- Hi y Android devices have a problem and i think its not listed from above it have sign of life when i leave it charging no battery charging indicator no display, not detectable on the pc/laptop, but somehow its still warm.it happens after my couz flash a custom ROm on it.
- Hey there,Recently I tried to update a system app on my Blu Energy Studio 2. The app was Wireless Installer or Update. It took me into Recovery Mode and I got stuck. Came to this page, tried to enter Safe mode.... Then I got stuck on the Boot screen!! Then I tried to perform a soft reset and now I'm back in recovery mode. I would really, really like it if I didn't have to perform a factory reset.If it helps I recently rooted my phone. Everything was working fine until I tried to update. Please, are there any suggestions?
- Heybeen asking Every1 & am yet 2 get an answer. 2 days ago my unlocked s5 active was getting marshmallow (which I've been dying 2 get!!!) I was all hyped up the att symbol showed the % beneath it loaded up to 100 thenit said kernel in red top left portion of my screen & then it said software unrecognized by att, then locked me out. Saying turn off & bring 2 att store. With this symbol center screen? now the custom and unlocked lock show upon startup. I got lollipop no problem. And I NEVER rooted or anything like that. Please tell me what 2 do so I can get my OTA update. Thanks!!
- Help. I can't switch on my phone. It says 'recovery booting... Secure fail: Kernel' What can I do
?- flash appropriate rom for your phone
- No. Bought it 'new' on ebay. It said it was an unlocked att with kitkat4.4.4. I've since received every OTA from Att whom I've been using as my carrier from day 1. I got security patches, lollipop etc. But this time during the update it stopped said kernel in red & locked me out.a hard reset got it working again but I want my update! ?I never seen this 'custom ' business until after the failed update. 1 more strange thing.. about 10 mins after getting working again I got the 'ur update is now complete message' ?? Yet still have 5.1.1 I just really want marshmallow & don't understand how this custom whatever never showed itself until now?
- i cant get into recovery-mode just hangs. factory mode works all checks completed. Wiko Rainbow phone
- normal boot, just 'begin screen', and than rainbow logo and than nothing.
- But I got lollipop updates? The baseband is G870AUCS2CPB6
- Hi,my Motorola is under scenario #1 above, no signs of life .
When plugged into a computer (I have tried different USB cables), the computer device manager says it's an unknown device that malfunctioned. The battery is unfortunately not user removable.
Do you have any ideas what could be the next step?- Is there anyway 2 restore my phone 2 'at&t standards' so that my future OTA updates will continue? Or any way 2 identify what the person did that made this 'custom' appear?and undo it? Bcuz it seems like with all of these security patches I'm only going 2 run into more problems.. and I CANNOT AFFORD A NEW PHONE I saved up 4 a year just 2 get this! And have been looking 4ward 2 marshmallow since development. I always do android check ins and manual update checks. Which I did 2day and it said I was up 2 date smh..?.
- I'm really not too familiar with this sort of thing. If it was sideloaded, it would've been the original KITKAT Version. I got an OTA for lollipop after that. So wouldn't it recognize that as its own update? And as far as samsung kies I'm not familiar.. is there a link u could provide. Do I need 2 use my pc? Lastly will it lock me out again if kies doesn't work? Or any other way doesn't work? I appreciate your help and time!
- Awesome effort dude I find it useful enough to get my phone back :)
Thank You - Hi,
Thanks for your response,
Thing is there isnt one thing that triggers the rebooting as the phone at times reboots
when im not even using it. I was posting pics to instagram other day and first two went
through fine but when i wanted to send the third one it rebooted,other times im busy on whatsapp
and it will reboot. Ive done a factory reset few times already but it hasnt solved the problem either.Regards
Mark Cockcroft - Hi there,I have a Huawei Mate 8 and it has a habit of rebooting every so often-have sent the phone away and nobody can tell me what's wrong- im scared that this will have an adverse affect on the phone if it keeps doing this,please helpMark
- Hi,
I've put it on safe mode and within the first hour it had rebooted-out of desperation I have now sent the phone back to my service provider to be sent away and checked again
Regards
Mark

- I was wondering if someone could help me in finding a solution in fixing an alcatel one touch astro pop model 5042T. It's my boyfriends phone and I have been searching the web for help but can't seem to find anything to help. He said when went to update the firmware or software for the phone it started to freeze than he factory reseted it and now you see the dead android with the red triangle and it's bootlooping over and over we tried safe mode it loads when it reaches home screen it states this message 'Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.location has stopped' and this 'Unfortunately, Goggle play services has stopped'. Than the screen freezes and it boot loop all over again. I have a macbook so I was trying to see if their was some kind of software that could fix the solution on the phone but still no such help. If anyone has a solution please reply thank you.
- i have an idol 3, from Alcatel, and I have an issue with my phone being stuck in bootloader.I have never made any changes to my phone. and just use the os provided by Alcatel.sometimes my phone loads past the bootloader, and goes to the system recovery screen, and sometimes it will boot all the way and work again for a day. Eventually though, it starts getting stuck in a boot loop again.the last time i was able to fix it by formatting my sd card, but this time reformatting the sd card did not work.can anyone help me figure out what to do?
- Hello Kannon Yamada,Subject: Huawei Y600-U20 - Unable to use Recovery Mode to flash my phoneI have a Huawei Y600-U20 Smart phone that fails to boot, it stucks at Huawei Logo.I had this problem before and i was able to flash it through recovery mode with this firmware Y600-U20_V100R001C456B008_Firmware_Malaysia_Indonesia_Philippines_Others_05021NTQ (SD card).Now i cannot use the recovery mode to flash the same firmware, i can enter the recovery mode but the android recovery mode seems faulty, the android robot is displayed but keeps blinking after every few second.

- Sir Yamada, good day. I read this whole post even the comments but it seems I cant find the answer. in my case its - Unbootable Scenario #1: No charging light, not warm after charging, & no Android boot screen except it detects on my Laptop as unknown device that can only be seen in device manager. can't get a hold of it as well since it detects and then just split second it ejects another second it detects again just repeating over and over again.
- this whole thing started as i completely drained any last bit of my battery and then when i charged my phone it took minutes to pop that charging icon, well everything seems fine till im about to sleep i unplugged and it has a 50-60% battery life, morning comes i went to checked on it and it is still ok but later i checked my phone again its dead. even left for an hour to charge has no sign of that charging icon its not charging anymore. cant even hard reset, #1 . cable is fine( i used many cables and other devices to check) #2. not sure but, the battery seems fine coz when i went to local store to find some batteries they checked my battery and says its fine. i cant buy a new battery if im not sure if the battery is at fault here. (local store doesn't have a battery for my phone have to order it online) please i want to know if this is a motherboard thing as you said 'kiss of death' of most phones.

- Your hard reset way is very nice. Share more informative post. I have a blog site related smartphone.
- my phone not booting to any fastboot or recovery, it's keeps vibrating when i turn it on or plug into charger, Lenovo A6000 after a failed restoring backup, TWRP
- Great article!While it is obvious to many of us I think you should insert in large bold print that any option involving a hard or factory reset will make your phone exactly as it was when you opened the box and that all your apps and app data will be gone. The latter may not be obvious to some.
- Thank you for this very informative article. I found it clear and easy to understand. Certainly worth bookmarking, though hopefully I will never need it.
