Guest McrRed Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Sorry for yet another "I've bricked my phone" topic as if we didn;t have enough of them already - and I know it's not truly bricked yet. But I've read all the topics thrown up in search, including HedgepigDaniel's excellent guide several times and fear i need some specific information to guide me to avoid truly bricking my phone. The problem: I can't get into recovery mode. Whatever I do, whatever I press I get the green android figure until the battery runs out or I take it out. How this came about: I was running Blue Ginger v5 quite happily but the camera stopped working in July (yes, I know!). I followed a few threads trying to get this sorted out - successfully applied various roms to see if that would help, but it didn't. I decided that the phone would need to go back to Orange before the warranty ran out. I tried to apply the Stock Rom OUK_P729BV1.0.0B20 But I'd forgotten that I'd changed the phone from Gen1 to Gen2 and didn't reverse this first. And I then got the problem I've described... My computer wont recognise the ZTE Drivers (Win7 64bit) so I get nothing from connecting via USB. I don't want to go too far down the IMEI etc route in case I make things even worse. Help! Thanks for reading, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KonstaT Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Use Gen2-to-Gen1-TPT-v2-stock.zip from Use sdcard reader to move 'image' folder to the root of your sdcard. After running the TPT your phone will boot into clockworkmod. Use clockworkmod to flash OUK_P729BV1.0.0B20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest McrRed Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Use Gen2-to-Gen1-TPT-v2-stock.zip from http://android.modac...2-tpt-upgrade/. Use sdcard reader to move 'image' folder to the root of your sdcard. After running the TPT your phone will boot into clockworkmod. Use clockworkmod to flash OUK_P729BV1.0.0B20. Thank you. That worked perfectly. I guess sometimes the simple solutions are the best (but knowing exactly which one to take requires genius!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
