Hey guys. I thought I could find us a recovery by experimenting with apparently and different recovery.imgs so I used this to push a cmw recovery.img onto the phone it said it was successful and to reboot into recovery and I did well now all my coolpad did was boot the splash screen and then start to go into recovery but it gets. Stuck. At the words recovery mode I can't. Access. Anything except entervia USB and calibration. Mode what can I do or is it done?
 
Seems more of a hard brick as I can't think of a way to get out of this mess. I was going to say wait for someone to make a custom recovery and then flash the stock rom, but if someone were to make a custom recovery how were you going to flash it anyways.
 
If it's. Done with Odin I could flash the recovery then download a cement back up someone makes I think if its cement we get hopefully. It will have to go through Odin
 
This aint a hard brick, this is a soft brick. You can try going on coolpads website and download and install the update that they have... hopefully that might help;).. and also did you get into recovery fully
 
Looks like there is a software update here: Coolpad Quattro
Check the download button and there are files with instructions that get copied to the SD card and then installed.
Not sure that will flash the phone, but maybe.

enter Calibration mode then connect to USB use adb

adb server-start
adb devices -----If you see the phone your ok '

Download Stock recovery image can be found in this zip file
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/78930645/Coolpad Quattro 4G.7z

Extract recovery.img and copy to phone

adb push recovery.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.img

once its finished run the recovery command

adb shell
su
/data/local/tmp/flash_image recovery /data/local/tmp/recovery.img

when that finishes take out battery put it back in and power on it should boot into normal recovery mode. Select REBOOT and the phone will boot normally.

Best of luck to you
