Let’s face it. Every one of us has bricked their android devices once (or twice-if you are a developer).
Unluckily I’m among the messy few. I bought a new Lenovo k900 and bricked it the same day. Simply put, all that phone could do was light the soft key buttons for a few seconds then it goes off. It was distressing. But you know what they say. You can never brick an android phone.
Here’s what I did to give life to my phone once again:
REQUIREMENTS
1. Intel androiddrvsetup
2. Isoc usb driver setup
3. XFSTK downloader
4. Manufacturing flash tool (MFT)
5. K900_1_S_2_019_0142_130927_DVT3_CPsign (this is the specific rom I used to unbrick my Lenovo K900)
PROCEDURE
1 Install the Intel android drivers
2 Install isoc usb drivers
3 Install XFSTK.
4 Install manufacturing tool.
5 Unzip K900_1_S_2_019_0142_130927_DVT3_CPsignthen run XFSTK. Within XFSTK, open the following files in their respective dialog boxes: a) FW DnX; CLAK_FwDnX_CLVP_20.24.bin
b) IFWI; CLAK_IFWI_CLVP_vF9.54_ww19_001_SOS.bin
c) OS DnX; CLAK_OsDnX_CLVP_20.24.bin
