Almost recovered from brick - need an advice

[Guest eggoide]

Hi, I played with various ROMs and accidentaly bricked the phone - I couldnt use CWM, fastboot, TPT, finally I was able to install Clockwork by ZTE firmware flasher.

However, now I cannot reboot to the system that I have installed from CWM, it keeps rebooting to CWM. I tried various (working) ROMS, wiped cache partition and data

with no luck, it keeps rebooting to CWM.

Any idea what can I do to make it boot normally?

Thank you!

Thank you, just tried - same situation. I am not experienced pro but it seems that I need to rewrite some kind of boot information that is currently set to boot CWM, no ROM has rewritten it...:(

Problem is that you used the ZTE firmware flasher despite all the warnings that you'd lose your IMEI, corrupt nvram & it'll be a hassle to restore it.

Method 5.

I had to:( Nothing else worked... I know that I used quite risky way but I restored IMEI as described in the guide.

Is there a way out?

Read the instructions, carefully. You still have corrupt NV memory, that is why it will only start in recovery mode. There is a way out, using that ZTE firmware flasher, but it'll be a lot of hassle & I've never had to do it, so you'll just have to read the threads on it.
