Wait for the battery to fully discharge and then start charging and VOL+PWR to get into recovery.

I'm in a similar situation right now, flashed a kernel that caused some problem and now no amount of power button holding is doing anything. This has happened to me before and has always been recoverable once the battery was discharged.

Incidentally, does anyone have a good tip for speeding up discharging and or yanking the battery out? a USB-OTG device might help, but a) i don't have one and b) i dunno if USB is even working right now. In the past i have opened up the case to take a look at the innards but the i couldn't detach the ribbon cable from batter to phone, too small and fiddly, anyone ever tried it with a success story to tell?

[General Questions and Answers] c0d3x42:
Well, sources won't be going up anytime soon. Long story short, I've bricked my phone, hopefully I'll be able to boot into recovery once the battery has fully discharged. This will take a long time to happen as it was almost fully charged at the time and unlike previous times this has happened to me, the device appears to not be drawing any power (backlight is off and CPU isn't warm), so it might be in the order of weeks till it runs flat. I've ordered a USB-OTG cable and hopefully i can use that to drain the battery.

as a note to anyone else that might think to try it, android_kernel_cyanogen_msm8916 with msm8916_defconfig caused something bad to happen, possibly in conjunction with the blobs i was using.
[General Questions and Answers] bok27:
Main battery is full discharged and not start. Phones not vibrate on start and not apere android logo. Only blue light .

Not able to boot into recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] c0d3x42:
How certain are you the battery is fully discharged? You'd have to know how much charge was on it to start AND what the discharge rate when idle was in order to calculate how long to wait.
[General Questions and Answers] lonespeaker:
This happened to me back in October

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63470437&postcount=1032

I wrote back then : "I'm seriously annoyed with this phone. one bad kernel flash and the phone sem-bricks itself and I have to wait for the battery to drain itself before I can get back to recovery. no buttons work at all. I even took the back off to see if I can detach the battery but it's not possible."

It typically took about 3 or 4 days for my SU6 to respond again. What I found was you had to make sure you had the recovery buttons pressed everytime you tried to power on, otherwise it would 'brick' again for an unknown time.

Damn what a downer!

Hi,

I new here although i was on here years ago with other phones.

Some amazing knowledge here.

Real downer i installed chainfire 3d to run a game and also installed that beta driver what it warns you about.

I even thought as a safeguard to copy over official rom to sd card as back up to install via recovery the last week, i only had this phone a week it is ace!

Anyway i cannot reflash the official rom through recovery i can get into it but now i cannot copy rom to sd card as only shows logo and not boots up but will go into recovery.

So i have been here before with other phones like galaxy s2 what i finally got working again but problem is i have no way to install.

Is it possible to use ADB? i have got the phone to show in flashtool in fastboot mode but the rom is not an image, is there a way to install this zip rom? the official one?

If i get this working again i'll be well happy! and real grateful. I can't afford to be buying another phone now, no phone, no happy bunny.

Thank you in advance.

Haha, well i suppose it's not too bad at least i can fix it that way, cards are dirt cheap, like 8+ Gig for like £2.50 or something delivered just a hassle, i should know better, i flashed many phones over the years but it's better than it not going into recovery mode, a nightmare for phoners.

Yes all i need is to use one for a few minutes really then i can get back on Dead Effect 2, Need for speed, 9mm etc...

I'll just try out this TC The division beta to keep me occupied. :0

I do hope the recovery don't do what the Samsung did though and not flash from sd card with errors. Then i'll be gutted real pity there is no Rom in an IMG format.

*UPDATE* Fixed with adb side load! yay! what a mess around getting it to work with drivers but finally sorted it! Well happy! Lost all my data but i had it all backed up on pc so no problem now i can stream to Youtube.

If anyone has major trouble and cannot update due to similar reasons i can point drivers and adb version i used[was just a tiny download no need for the android sdk. I was determined to sort it, i know it can be done with a sd card but the last few phones i had i haven't needed to use a sd card as the space is ok for me, been a while since i had an sd card bit old skool now with these big storage phones. :)

Same here used it in a zte blade that was only 512mb of ram. Also remember the plug in's for power vr e.t.c being a bit hit and miss. Likely my phone couldn't run them. On a plus side if you originally purchased chainfire pro you got cf lumen pro for free as it used the same driver. Don't even think that's needed now but might be wrong.

[General Questions and Answers] Tezray:
Moving away from this phone on the 8th when my s7 edge arrives absolute shame this is a great phone but I use it a lot and cannot put up with the lag every so often if cm a custom rom with someone tweaking out each bug came along I would have kept it but it just irritates me really think Vodafone missed something big here
[General Questions and Answers] BlueMoonRising:
I presume you're getting the S7 edge on contract (although you're still going to pay for it long term, £1250 total on EE over 24 months!!!) since to buy to own would cost you an extra £514 over the SU6. Why people moan that there may be a little lag (it's never affected me TBH) and then talk about getting a £639 phone (yes, £639!!!) because they're disappointed is beyond me.
[General Questions and Answers] Tezray:
I did it to try a cheap phone with an amazing screen I don't think this phone should be lagging like it is but think it is poor software programming which will not get fixed so going with an s7 that will get support for a bit then the next latest phone in 2 years. If I didn't use the phone that much it would be fine
[General Questions and Answers] russy23:
I dont notice lagging, but ive never had a £500+ phone to compare it with, your money, your choice

ps..anyone know where i can get a new back casing for this phone??
[General Questions and Answers] lxda:
What kind of lag were you getting? Was the phone rooted and frameworks installed?
[General Questions and Answers] Tezray:
Scrolling on web pages. Freezing on loading them. Seconds delay on opening or switching apps. Just freezes randomly. To be honest I have a baby on the way and want a phone that can take a pic without being blurry can't get on with this camera even with the better camera app. Stock phone no root no framework wiped as well to see if lags go. Opening links on Facebook with a video takes ages to load and the video stutters a bit doesn't happen on other phones.

Root help/tips?!

I wonder if you can help me rooting my Vodafone Smart Ultra 6. It is on android 5.1.1. - even when I do factory reset it automatically updates.

I managed to root it the one time using Kingroot app randomly and it worked; then after it un-rooted itself basically randomly.

It had been a few years since I switched back to android so a little out of clue too.

Thanks,

Aman.

Well here's something for your amusement.

Resurrection Remix 5.5.9

sources: vendor device

Should work on top of 5.1.

Probably won't work on 5.0

usual things apply, wipe everything, warranty now void, i take no responsibility for bricking your phone, yadda yadda.

Working: Wifi, bluetooth (well it pairs with my other phone), NFC (makes a sound when tapping phones together)

Not working: camera.

unknown (but i doubt it) phone,data

Known issue: CPU's aren't correctly initialized, so the initial boot takes ages, i suggest once its completed you enable them in the Kernel Adiutor and select a governor.
[General Questions and Answers] russy23:
might try this as i picked up a 2nd su6. unfortunatley i cant help as i havent a clue about building roms, so whats the chances of working out the bugs as no one has seemed to carry on working with this device
[General Questions and Answers] c0d3x42:
chances are fair i'd say. I'd been plugging away at it off and on for a while, getting kernels to work was a major stumbling block but for now its just using the stock zImage+modules so i'll see how that goes. for now, having a stable system that boots and doesn't die in its sleep is a big step forward in my books.

I don't have a nano SIM either, so getting that working will be more problematic.
[General Questions and Answers] russy23:
get a free giffagaff sim ;), it comes as nano + adaptors

if you need me to test things out, give me a shout
[General Questions and Answers] c0d3x42:
SIM ordered, i'll see how far i can get without topping up. but i'll need to unlock it first. Then we'll see how it goes.

It can see a bunch of available networks at the mo, so thats a good sign. If you could comment on if it actually connects to a network that'd be useful.

It might well be, but my goal was RR or AICP as they have nice features. CM is better documented for a getting to grips with how to build android so thats where i started until i got happy enough with the how android builds to switch to RR.

So if i have device, which cannot boot into recovery and cannot boot into system.. its screwed, right?
