Please please help..need recovery

Hi,

Big problem, I have a Alcatel Pixi 4 (6) 8050d , MT8321 CPU.

I managed to root the phone with iROOT perfectly. But I thought I best make a backup, thats why I wanted a custom recovery.

It's sounds stupid but I never thought I needed to make a backup of the recovery as it's a tool. Im very new to modding.

I flashed TWRP first bootloop. Then read through forum, I then flash, CTR 5.7.

Still Bootloop.

This is where I got recovery from.

I have had it 2 days, bday present...it's my only mobile.

Spoke with kirito9, I need to get someone to give me there stock recovery.

Please help.:angel:

8050D stucks at Android Stock Recovery

:crying:

Hi, please help me.

My phone is 8050D. I rooted it with KingRoot but Bootloader is locked and Android Stock Recovery is untouched. Android USB Debugging mode is off because it keeps itself off every reboot. Using root privilege, I copied music.apk of Meizu to System folder. The phone hung immediately, restarted and since then stucks at Android Stock Recovery.

What can I do to make it boot to system again?
[Android General] kirito9:
There isn't anything else that I know of. The old methods cannot work with this device because it has a new android version and processor. It worked for me so maybe try again. Change PC if you have to.
[Android General] kirito9:
Use the Alcatel Mobile Upgrade Tool
[Android General] leosinto:
I tried but it did not help. It just told me that my firmware is most up to date.
[Android General] kirito9:
Unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery and boot cm12.1
[Android General] leosinto:
I tried fastboot oem unlock, then fastboot flash recovery but failed.
[Android General] kirito9:
Try using smartphone flash tool (SPFT).
[Android General] leosinto:
Can you guide me using it? from my search, it needs backup rom but I do not have.
[Android General] kirito9:
You can check on needrom.com or search on google to get your stock ROM.

Solved

After several attempts using SP flash tool and downloaded rom, my phone is now back to life. But it is now 8050e. I wonder what are the differences between 8050d and 8050e because so far I cannot see the differences.

Thanks kirito for supporting.
[Android General] kirito9:
The difference is the SIM. E means dual sim I think. Glad you got it working.

thanks, in the end i didn't need - or download - it, i was having trouble, and it's because i didn't factory reset!!! I feel such a noob, especially as i've done it a million times with my tablet!

I flashed TWRP but it just leads me to the stock recovery

Hello, recently I have flashed my Alcatel Pixi 4 (5010x) with twrp img given on the post and for some odd reason when I boot into recovery it shows me my Alcatel Stock recovery instead of TWRP. I really want to root my phone but this is whats stopping me. Please help

This is the message that was shown in the console when I flashed twrp

fastboot flash recovery ctr.img

target reported max download size of 134217728 bytes

[Android General] leosinto:
What I found the differences are:

1. Keyboard: TouchPal for 8050d and SwiftKey for 8050e

2. 8050e has no double tape to unlock feature.

3. Root lost after reboot
[Android General] kirito9:
Easily root with Kingroot
[Android General] kirito9:
You're not flashing TWRP but CTR according to your command. Check the recovery you downloaded again.
[Android General] Tiemma:
Unable to unlock bootloader

Good day Kirito.

My alcatel model is 5010u.

I got into a bootloop after unlocking my bootloader and didn't make a twrp backup out of ignorance.

I tried unlocking the bootloader after flashing a rom for the alcatel 5010x seeing they had the same specs and it keeps failing.

The rom gets past the alcatel screen and moves to another with a pixi 4 screen but it doesn't move from there.

My brother said he know someone with the same phone so will making a backup of his and flashing it on mine fix the problem?

Thanks and regards.
[Android General] kirito9:
Yes it will fix the problem. I cannot continue to stress this enough. Always make a backup before doing anything :rolleyes:. If that doesn't work you can try the mobile upgrade tool by alcatel.

[Android General] kirito9:
Your command is incorrect. It should be

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-5023.img.

If you do not see .img it means you need to extract it from the zip file. Use winrar or 7zip to do that.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
thanks buddy it work i cant belive it i,m very thankfull
[Android General] kirito9:
You're welcome. Take a backup of the ROM with TWRP before rooting!!.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
i enter the recovery mode it says no command

then i flashed it again and facing that proplem again
[Android General] kirito9:
You enter recovery mode and it says no command? I don't understand. Post the results, not the entire thing or if it's the entire thing use HIDE tags.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
i entered the recovery mode and it says 'no command'
[Android General] kirito9:
What command did you use to enter recovery mode?
[Android General] ziadmz99:
i entered the recovery mode to backup the rom and to make root as u told me when i entered this picture what i get
[Android General] kirito9:
Ohh, did you see TWRP before? Or you didn't check? Did the flashing say it was successful?
[Android General] ziadmz99:
i used 2 ways to enter recovery mode firt i entered 'adb reboot recovery'

and the second by power button+volume up

in both cases it says no command

---------- Post added at 12:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

no i was focused no twrp appear when i flashed the recovery it was successful
[Android General] kirito9:
Seems stock recovery overwrites TWRP after a reboot. Try again with fastboot, after the flash. Take out the battery and try to boot straight to recovery mode.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
my battery isnt removable

[Android General] kirito9:
Seems about right, instead of fastboot reboot. Power off by holding the power button and boot to TWRP by volume up + power.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
it doesnt want to power off i hold the power button more than a minute it doesnt want to power off.... it power of by writing in the cmd fastboot reboot
[Android General] kirito9:
Then...not sure what else to do ._. The system seems to overwrite the TWRP upon reboot which is common in some android phones and the way to fix this is to remove the file overwriting the recovery. You would have to use the scatter you got from the miracle box tool and flash the recovery using SPFT.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
is it safe to use it and edit in the rom without backing it up

and if it safe please disscuss more or send me the link
[Android General] kirito9:
Use what and edit what? The recovery? I don't think you would be able to use it if you can't boot to it.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
you mean its hard to make recovery and root to my mobile
[Android General] kirito9:
Apparently. Try this, fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-5023.img . It would boot straight to TWRP.
[Android General] ziadmz99:
it work i cant belive it thanks but every time when i want the recovery i must do this?

and in the backup i make a bakeup of the system or the system image:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Android General] kirito9:
Make a backup of everything, after root you would not have to do this. After making the backup of everything. Go back to the root post and download the phhsupersu root file and flash it. Not so certain about SuperSU right about now.

Hi, i need someone who could help me!

I got a smartphone Alcatel pixi 4 (4) model/4034E, and i unlocked the bootloader, my biggest problem was to found some custom recovery who works on my phone. I got it after searching a lot of time in many diferents places. I visit a russian blog and found a TWRP v 3.02 compiled to my Alcatel. .. and so i flashed then, and to my surprise it work! the reason for i come right here ask help its because when i flash SuperSu by TWRP (i tried all version) my smart Brick, and don't reset totality... He stay in the logo of Alcatel and do not out right there. I thought beggin the problem is on TWRP, who i download in the russian blog, but after that i can do BACKUPS, WIPE, RESTOPE, FLASH OTHERS THING by my custom recovery, i realize that problem is not in my TWRP ("i guess") but maybe in install SuperSU. If somebody got a Binary.zip or another form to i root my Alcatel by the custom recovey i thanks!

Thanks in Advanced!
[Android General] kirito9:
If I'm understanding this correctly, you flashed SuperSU and then your device doesn't boot?
[Android General] Didho):
Yes kirito9, this is what happen.
[Android General] kirito9:
Ok, boot into fastboot mode by pressing the vol down + power button, OR using TWRP recovery and choose the option reboot bootloader.

After you're inside fastboot mode, verify that the device is there by typing fastboot devices. If you see something then it's there, if not then you need the fastboot drivers.

After you've got fastboot up and running type fastboot flash system system.img to restore your system image. I take it that you made a backup of your device before doing anything.
[Android General] Didho):
excuse my ignorance on this subject ... but TWRP propio I could install the system back up I did before the procedure. In fact , I do system restore the TWRP own everything back to normal. But my problem is that I want to install SuperSu , and when I try to install the latest version , but still the same thing happens ! If I do system.img flash I will be able to continue the boot and stay with the Root ?
[Android General] kirito9:
Ohh ok, you made the backup before good. The problem is now that there's no known root method for your device. It has Marshmallow and the only way to root on MM is via systemless root. Flashing the systemless root SuperSU will render the device brick.

I'd suggest you wait until there's another way to root your device or until systemless root supports MTK.
[Android General] Didho):
OK ! Thanks anyway! I'll be waiting... XD:good:

First of all, I would like to thank Kirito9, by provided support and patience! If you had given up on the last post, I would not have root! Hehehe!!:D

Anyway, I got the root now, after much sacrifice and read a lot, Which is the most interesting to learn. Alcatel One Touch Pixi 4 (4) 4034 / D / E successfully rooted! I will not name any method, because I think we Were the first ... I used INITIALLY AndroidOneToolkit (to unlock the bootloader, but it Could be done otherwise in the terminal)

Then I downloaded the ADB drivers (downloaded all at once with the AndroidStudio), to handle the ADB codes. After was the hard part, because it has no custom recovery to this model of Alcatel yet, but I found a custom recovery TWRP compiled for version 4034 / D Which worked perfectly in my 4034 / E. Then I flash with the ADB terminal, Then used the command to fastboot, and fastboot mode, I did flash TWRP. Then the essential participation of Kirito9 who sent me the .ZIP boot.img the superuser PHH. After just installed in GooglePlay the superuser apk PHH and done!

I appreciate the support, and who have more questions, please email me, I will try to help in the process too!
