I was wondering if I can get some help with the Sprint ZTE FLASH N9500....IT seems I have bricked my phone completely.. I rooted my phone and everything was working fine... Then I flashed a recovery from ROM MANAGER.. It wiped my stock recovery and unfortunately I have no recovery at all. I did a back up of my phone, but It was lost... I know I know big mistakes on my part. SOOOO trying to do a back up of my phone before something else went wrong. The software was for a different phone and It wiped my IMEID, MRL and other phone info, and access to the network, BT, and WIFI were lost. Soooo now I have nooo clue what IVE DONE and my phone turns on but it just goes black... No recovery, not boot. I was thinking of copying the rom of a ZTE avid that my husb has, but I copied the build props before the phone went black and it was okay but the icons were tooo small. After I flashed the build for the ZTE FLASH it was still missing all the things I mentioned. Some one please help me. :confused::(
 
problem 1 you flashed a recovery from the wrong phone

problem 2 you flashed a rom from the wrong phone


rule #1 dont use recoveries, kernels or roms from different devices

solution
flash recovery made for this.phone, not using rom manager, because its not on rom manager and rom manager has issues anyway
wait for flashable rom for this phone to be released, stocl, stock based, cm, doesnt matter as long as its specifically for the zte flash, not the other brands flash dell or whatever, not the zte force, ztr flash or.nothing. im posting instructions for recovery install now, be patient or you will make it worse
 
THank you,

Yes i know lessen learned... I need to purchase a new one then really need a phone. I will be patient I really want to fix this one.

yea its a hard lesson to.learn, but it does happen. at least its fixable ive seen way worse. and.sorry i cant help with the rom part or itd be fixed already, my internet connectivity is rather limited and i.dont have the device
 
its okay, I don't know whats up with this phone but I tried to load your recovery and Ive lost SU rights... I did and followed ur instructions and permission denied. Im like aaaaaahhhhhhhh, so im tossing it I bought a new one online today... I was thinking JTAG but Ive spent too long in reading reviewing and nothing has worked... ugghhhh. Ill be more careful from now on. I will stop playing phone tech for a while.. definitely will root it and flash your recovery and I will do a nandroid back up.

thank you for your help I appreciate it.
 
jtag isnt for zte phones itll break it if anything. there are other ways to flash it though, rebooting to bootloader is an option, you may have to manually force the drivers though. i have a guide somewhere in the sequent section
 
Hi

I bought my Zte and made a back up of it like three times... and i want to thank you mrjunkie2100 to your recovery I flashed it last night and its awesome.. thank you thank you.

I used nandroid manager to flash it I put it on the root of sdcard just like u said and using nandroid it was able to flash it. And i was sooo happy.

I am throwing the other away.. i cant get it to do anything
 
yes two of the same phone, im still trying to get it fixed..ive used adb, android commander,aio android flash i also tried fastboot and its like when its regular on the phone screen is black, and all the programs i ty say no phone no device and when i use ftm all that shows up is ?
 
ftm may or may not allow adb. othrrwise its proprietary and useless... but if you can get into bootloader, thr blacl screen with the android guy, then manually select to install the kernel debug drivers from the zte driver pack you can then use the fastboot program, its similar to adb but not the same thing
 
basically once you get the cwm installed you can restore the backup from the other phone. just gotta fight with fastboot
 
im pretty sure you canjtag any android phone but anyways even tho in ftm it shows a ?in adb it dosnt matter the comands will till run ftm works with adb trust me i done it and can you upload the backup or send it to my email ? and i fixed my phone threw ftm and mine was stuck in boot loop i used adb
 
all things root
wait this thread is in all things root... dude, really?
if you cant find it i dunno what to tell you
