[Please help] infinix hot s (x521) Sp flash and format error
(24-12-2017, 12:43 PM)nyars15 Hi guys
I got this infinix hot s phone that will not only boot (stuck at boot) but can't event boot into recovery. I try flashing using sp flash tool but keep getting these errors: S_FT_DOWNLOAD_FAIL (4008) and S_FORMAT FAIL (4010) when u try to format.
I have searched all over; I have been instructed to download other versions of the stock rom, use format all +download, firmware upgrade but nothing seems to work. I also tried flashing and formating with miracle box but to no avail.
When I try to boot to recovery, it's stuck at infinix logo.
NOTE: i have latest sp flash tool, used smdt, and do flash other phones with the same tool.
please help

(25-12-2017, 09:59 PM)nyars15 Tried 3, concluded it couldn't have been the roms: reason been that, SP flash tool and miracle box couldn't format the phone (but am not sure if am right)

it might be due to wrong firmware.
i take it that you haven't been able to flash anything onto this device since it got bricked.
use miracle box to readinfo from the device. if successful, you should get the current build number
with that in hand, download the right firmware then use latest version of SPft to flash
(26-12-2017, 08:26 PM)nyars15 and that rom (X521-J5088A1-M-160712V14) was the first I downloaded.
(27-12-2017, 02:50 PM)nyars15 Yeah, since it got bricked there has never been any successful firmware flash.
On how the phone got bricked; I was using the flashflight when I tried to turn data on. The phone started to heat up and then went off - the problem has ever since remain
Have I tried flashing with infinix flash tool? Yes I did but never successful.
