I cannot get it into recovery. Ive tried everything.

Finally got it to boot the letv logos again(some have Chinese writing under logo) but still cannot get it into recovery. Stock or twrp.
[Device Reviews and Information] intruda119:
Well I wave the white flag. Ive spent 2 days on 2 computers with 10 different roms/twrp/unbrick files and cant get anywhere.

Ive never had a phone act like this before. I would understand if I flashed the wrong file or use to flash tool to format but just trying to update to the latest stable rom has turned into a nightmare. Going back to the WinMo days ive never had a device so difficult to do anything with. Doubt this is a mediatek thing as Ive owned a few meizu devices.,

I doubt this is a wide spread issue but I just cant put any more time into this.

Last letv device Ill own.

Good luck fellas.

Have you looked at post 805? Flash the unbrick file from spft, then flash the boot.img from rom 6s in spft. It's the ONLY thing that helped me

struggling to get trwp on my x600

I fear I have one that just can't be rooted/flashed.. please let me know if that's even possible.

I've tried install 2.8.6.0 & 7.1 many times with different files.

I want to try SP Flashtool, but not really confident in using it and struggling on how.

What else can i try to flash it?
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
If your phone is like mine SPFT is the ONLY option
[Device Reviews and Information] hugoprh:
To flash stock recovery please download it from here extract the files to any folder that you will remember, now open SP Flash Tool and on SPFT open the "MT6795_Android_scatter.txt" that was extracted from the RAR file, by doing this, only recovery should be selected on the partition list of SPFT, press "Download" and plug in the phone while it's doing the bootloops, eventually the SFTP will detect the phone and flash the stock recovery, now try again the steps I told before.

Hope it helps

By the way, mine is fully working now, IMEI is back on, but not permanent, if I do factory reset it gets lost, but at least it is working for =D
[Device Reviews and Information] danystraus76:
download here

Guide and the necessary files are in the compressed file!

At the end of procedure, make a backup of NVRAM partition using TWRP recovery and after you restore with NVRAM backup created.

Take care

I think so, could you please link me to a useful guide for using spft

I have found this and downloaded the stuff, but not able to use the guide properly as I'm a total noob on spft

I've followed this method to instal TWRP, but it still doesn't work. I have installed the vcom driver and it's detecting right. I downloaded the files and followed the instructions, but SP Flashtool does nothing, the bar at the bottom should turn red but doesn't.

Any idea?

Ive tried everything. Cant get pass the boot logo loop.

It's works for me thanks
[Device Reviews and Information] Seraph02:
Hi,

If you have the grey version or a newer version use this recovery : http://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3gycKX .

It's the only one that remain flashed after reboot.

Unzip it to your pc, connect the phone to PC and run the recovery.bat and hit enter until the phone reboots ( it's in chinese ).

You need to enable the USB debugging on the phone when it prompts .

If it doesn't work, PM me and I will search for the scatter file for SP tools .
[Device Reviews and Information] intruda119:
Phone is so weird, battery died last night. Plugged it into the computer, it boots up to unbricked firmware. Phone went to lock screen and swipe up/down. Now back to boot loop. lol
[Device Reviews and Information] dihanchy:
8s stable version coming in 26 with bug fixes, optimization and new features.
[Device Reviews and Information] sirdickens:
Hmmm, you should have your phone OFF and disconnected.

Once you setup flashtools (select scatter, check everything/recovery and use upgrade firm/download only) and click download button is the moment you connect your phone.

Then red line will pass by soon and not so long after that yellow line will slowly charge till 100%

Hope it helps,

Cheers!

Anyone know what signature error means? Getting error when trying to upgrade to 007s

and abd drivers for windows 10. The one included with twrp file, cant complete installation of abd drivers.
[Device Reviews and Information] sunil237:
Yup, that;s the way i do it. Just don't get any progress from it

I already had that recovery and it didn't work for me. I have just factory reset my phone and can't get recovery.bat to even load now.

I did have the chinese letv recovery, now it is in english.

I have 3 different scatter and recovery files but I cannot get anywhere in SP tools.. I hit download and connect phone but it doesn't send anything
[Device Reviews and Information] sirdickens:
I really don't know anymore. Maybe we have different phones? Maybe different batch? To me, this procedure has 3 completed out of 3 attempts on 3 letv x600.

All of them, my sister in law and my two friends are really satisfied with bb72 07s ROM I installed after getting TWRP on with this method.

Do you guys maybe use widows 8? Or do you run spft as administrator?

Cause I had problems with spft amd windows 8..

I would really love to help but I guess I myself don't even know wtf is wrong :/
[Device Reviews and Information] intruda119:
Only thing that worked for me was volume up + power button when connected. Mine would load generic usb and mediatek drivers. With a little speed open device manager up with your spft and time it. Mediatek only comes up for like 2 seconds. Give it a try.

Anyone have any directions to upgrade from 2s to 7s? I can get into recovery now but no abd drivers are there(yellow triangle in device manager). On windows 10.
[Device Reviews and Information] dihanchy:
People bricking phone with recovery,flash tools and many more..just download the stock rom file and install the zip via stock recovery but if you want to do custom rom then there is only one stable customrom which is bb72 but it is worthless doing experiment with phones and bricking.Why dont stay in stock rom and enjoy the weekly update of experimental version or monthly updates of stable version.
[Device Reviews and Information] jokerbone:
Does anyone else have issues with the speakerphone and bluetooth headsets when using the Google Dialer? All other apps use both the speaker and bluetooth perfectly, but when I click the speakerphone icon when on a phone call all I get is silence.

I'm using Gerrit's excellent AOSP ROM, and am seriously impressed by the device for everything but this one bug; for the money it's an incredible piece of kit.

Any ideas?

For all those with issues loading TWRP I thoroughly recommend following sirdickens detailed instructions a few pages back. Two things I struggled with were getting the Mediatek drivers loaded on Windows 10, for which I followed this guide: http://laurentiumihet.ro/technology...-for-32-64-bit-drivers-installation-tutorial/ and completely missing the bit where it said TURN OFF YOUR PHONE before attempting to load the scatter file for the first time. If your phone is switched on then SP Flash Tool cannot see it properly. So switch it off, then plug it in, wait for the USB detection noise and hit that Download button.

Hope that helps, and hope someone can help sort out my speakerphone!
[Device Reviews and Information] sirdickens:
Better hit download button first and then connect phone. Cause download waits until it detects MTK preloader device connected or when 2mins pass then it says no device connected
[Device Reviews and Information] jokerbone:
Further to my speakerphone/bluetooth issue, it doesn't appear related to the Dialler, but to the actual component that makes phonecalls. If I install a third party dialler, when I make a phone call the same 'application' is launched to handle the call; with the same speaker/bluetooth issues.

Very frustrating. Help!
[Device Reviews and Information] METAL66:
ok, i gave up finally on this phone

List of problems :

1. very hard to root, after searching for many hours, i could finally root it

2. no support for multi languages ( unless you go back to the very old version, and with that, you get many bugs, which they corrected after the new update ), so you have to use only CN and EN languages.

3. if you finally succeed to root you cannot install google apps using google installer / solution = delete hosts file in the system

5. the phone is full of bloatware and chinese apps, you are not sure which to delete and which to have on

6. google chrome is denied from downloading, it redirects you to their default browser, wether you want it or not

7. Viber crashes, because it is incompatible

8. their support sucks, here is an extract from their answer to me when asked to make google apps work and not block its server, and help me get rid of the too many chinese widgets/apps

to me

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thanks for your support to Letv products!

I think i'm leaving my phone unrooted, and giving up on this. my main issues were the bloatware and insane battery drain... literally was getting half a day battery with my screen on less than an hour, but after a reformat it fixed the battery drain issue, and i installed a different launcher which allows me to hide the bloatware, and also disabled notifications of the bloatware. Pretty happy with it as is for now.

Going to try to letv original update and see how that that is.

lol.. anyone know how to sort out the signature error when flashing an original rom with the original recovery :p trying to update to latest stable version here http://bbs.letv.com/zt/eui/le_1.html

Thanks for the help

Thats better.You can also disable the certain chinese apps.And 8s stable version is coming in wednesday with bug fixes and optimization.

---------- Post added at 08:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 PM ----------

And you can update easily with stock recovery..just rename the zip file to 'update' and put it in your mobile storage.Then turn off your phone.Press power button and volume + button..it will take you to the stock recovery.If the recovery is chinese then just select sd written and chinese writing..tick option marks ..continue selecting first option then there will be eui loading screen.After that you are in new version.

When I try now to push the power button and volume upp nothing happens, The phone is dead, when I try to push the power on button only happens nothing. Is it a way to unbrick the phone.

I've managed to power it off and re-flas the FW, but it still doesn;t boot up :/

any way to unbrick it? I can enter only stock recovery

It should be like zip folder and you just need to change the name to update..bad that you screw up the simplest way to update.

Andrew, sorry for late reply. I was busy returning the phone to the factory :) First time for everything they say.

So yes, RMA request was all I could do afterall. They re-flashed my new shiny brick, and now all is good again.

I wonder how they revived it (without disassembling it). Must be some specialized tool and/or equipment.

Cheers.

Hello,

I am writing because my LeTV x600 shut down while I was using it. I don't know if the phone is completely turned off or if it's just the screen that doesn't work, but I can't seem to turn it on by pushing on the power on button for a few seconds. When I plug the charger however, the led becomes red. The sensitive buttons at the bottom of the screen don't seem to react either.

Concerning the software, I bought the phone with BB72 installed on it.

Did anyone encouter the same problem ? Could anyone help me ?

Thanks in advance !

EDIT : Just to let those interested know that I put the phone in charge for more than an hour and now I could power it on. Everything seems to work just fine. I am wondering if maybe either the leather case might facilitate overheating and thus making the phone to shut down until a cooler temperature is reached, or an issue with the xiaomi 10000 mAh external battery on which the phone was connected while I was using it.

Easy, they don't complain and install the BB72 ROM which pretty much all of your complains solved. Except the support complain, you are right on that, but then LeTV don't care, their main concern is China and now USA. They can make some mistake on China but not on USA, where they will get serious hate if stuff doesn't work like it should.

or its possible to change only the glass?
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
The same just happened to me 2 weeks ago. I'm not a screen specialist, but this screen does not seem to be Gorilla Glass. The same also happened to Pablo, just search him on this thread.

Even tough, my screen is broken, it still works good, no problems, however Pablo does not recomend buying only the glass as it is difficult to glue to the LCD screen. Anyway, i'm about to buy one on aliexpress. The ones that cost below 20€ seem to be just the glass or a very cheap glass+LCD combo. I'll probably buy one at 30€ as the seller has a very good reputation, Let's see how it goes..

It won't work because your reseller uses a modified version of eui. Try installing the update by the recovery.
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
For a 5.5 phone i don't think it's too short. The main app i use is a game, so that may shorten the screen on time. The phone will last the entire day, unless you use it really intensely.

With geekbench battery benchmark on lowest brightness I got about 7h. 2-3h seems a bit little in my opinion. Today my phone had about 4h and 30% left on 1/3 brightness.

If it is a game app, it should be all right. Actually, I do not play games intensely, long lasting battery power which can support my daily documentary tasks is good enough. Thanks guy:)
