phone is dead bricked
phone is dead bricked
(07-07-2015, 10:24 AM)idave The model of my phone is Tecno m3. It just got dead bricked (it does not show any sign of booting not even the tecno boot logo. it just vibrates and stays like that for hours...).
It started when I tried to correct an anomaly which made my phone's data and come on itself (whenever that happens the phone would hang if I'm using any 3rd party app until I switch them both off). I first rooted the phone, installed custom recovery and tried to wipe data/factory reset 3 times to no avail (the wipe data would be completed but when I reboot my phone I'll find nothing happened in all three times).
So I decided to install a custom Rom since I was still running stock Rom. The Rom I used was the one I had already installed for a friend on her own tecno m3 so I was confident it had to work.
The first 2 times I tried I received an error message but with the third trial it started installing (only for it to stop midway and go off).
Since then my phone have not been able to come on, charge or do anything. Please I'll like to request permission to download the stock m3 Rom so I can unbrick my phone. Thanks

(16-07-2015, 08:18 AM)idave I'm sorry I now get what you mean, its the old m3 running stock 4.2 I have. I've done all you said with using mtkdroid tools to backup an existing Rom and spflash tools to flash the Rom.
My phone now boots but it only shows a white screen even after making the tecno boot sound and all. Pls what else can I do..??

(17-07-2015, 02:03 AM)idave Thanks for the link but when I licked to download that of m3, it took me to an "adfly" advert page.
After i clicked "skip ad" I was taken to a google drive page showing me this error...
"403. That’s an error.
We're sorry, but you do not have access to this page. That’s all we know."
Pls can you tell me how I can get access...?? THANKS in Advance
