How to Unbrick The New Infinix Hot Note X551
Many infinix hot note users have gotten their phone bricked while trying to install the latest updates. Unfortunately the list keeps on increasing everyday. All thanks to john johnson for uploading his backup.
I would have dropped the link to the cwm backup earlier, but almost all those who bricked their device didn’t install a custom recovery before it got bricked and the easiest way to install a custom recovery would have been with the use of rashr flash tool or mobile uncle. but this tools can' be used on a bricked device.
So I have decided to put you through on how to install a custom recovery on your bricked device and also how to restore backup.
HOW TO INSTALL CWM WITH SPFLASH TOOL:
Requirements:
=> sp flashtools. download here.
=> Vcom port driver. Download Here.
=> Infinix hote note scatter file. Download HERE.
=> Infinix hot note cwm recovery. Download HERE.

procedures:
=> The first thing you have to do is to download and install Vcom drivers from the link provided above.
=> download infinix hot note scatter file and cwm recovery( paste them preferably on the desktop).

=> just disconnect your phone and try booting into recovery.
If you successfully boot into recovery then you are ready for the next step which is to restore backup.
How to Restore Infinix Hot Note Backup:

Dude... I mistakenly booted into fastboot mode.. now I cant hard reboot my phone by holding the power button for 15secs. My phone has been stuck in fastboot mode for 6 hours now.... :(
ReplyDeleteThe first thing you have to do is to install adb and fastboot on your pc by following this LINK.
ReplyDeleteAfter that open my computer and open your LOCAL DISK (C:)
You should see a folder inside named Adb.
Open the folder
Hold down your shift key, right click and select "open command window here"
once the command prompt has been opened, just type fastboot reboot
your phone should restart afterward.
let me know if it works
Thanks a lot men.
DeleteI have an Infinix Hot Note and I had installed CyanogenMod 12.3 on it(if you want to know how, contact me ericmahasi@gmail.com)
On the power menu, I had enabled advanced reboot options in settings.
When I selected reboot into bootloader, the screen went blank and only displayed "fastboot" and was completely unresponsive.
Using this adb method, it worked 100% fail proof. You've saved me a lot men,
It worked... .. Thanks again... .

DeleteI have successfully unbrick my phone, thank you soo much. But I want to remove the MT6592 from the so that I can update. because update is saying this phone is not infinix phone but MTK.. Please help, thanks
ReplyDeleteI don't get you
Deletethanks sir. you are a saviour.
ReplyDeletepls i saw something like "sd-ext.img not found. skipping installation of /sd-ext."
what does this mean ?
and how do i unroot the device, b ecause it looks like the recovery file is from a rooted device.
will a hard reset harm the device in any way ?
thanks again.
skipping installation of /sd-ext.
DeleteIt simply means that there was no app installed on sdcard when the backup was made.
So you have nothing to worry about...
*******
To unroot the phone, you have to check if kinguser is installed or SuperSU...
If it's kimguser, click on the settings icon and scroll down to remove root permission.
If it's SuperSU, click on settings and scroll down to full unroot
Please, i love this your post & i really wanny ask few questions here.

ReplyDeleteDon't worry just leave the phone for a couple of hours for the battery to die off completely ( I usually recommend 24hours).
DeleteAfter that you have to restart the procedure all over again..
Connect your phone after clicking on download (there is no need of pressing any vol. Key)
