Hi, Goodmorning, I downloaded a boot.img for tecno camon cx air, hoping to unroot my phone and restoring to a clean state 

After downloading and unzipping, i met a boot.bin  file, i was actually hoping to see a boot.img which i am more familiar with.

Anyway, i made a copy of the downloaded boot.img which was for the Tecno Camon CX Air build number (CXAir-H3713A-N-170618V105) which was the build number of the phone that got bricked. I am very extra careful to check the correct build number of my device.

After making a copy, i changed the file extension from boot.bin to boot.img and rebooted the phone into fastboot mode with 

Code:

adb reboot-bootloader

and flashed the boot image with

Code:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Did a reboot and my phone has since been stuck in the first Tecno splashscreen, its not even making an attempt to load the boot animation
Please hellpp

Try wiping the phone in recovery, see https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-479.html for how to enter recovery mode.

did you by any chance make a firmware backup before attempting to flash this boot.img?
use method 3 at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-16005.html to obtain the build number from the bricked phone and attach a screenshot of the output of miracle box

@Xenon

Build number from recovery is CXAir-H3713A-N-170618V105

bro you still have a chance to recover your phone just try sd card update methode if this does not solve the problem download exact firmware of your phone and by using sp flash tool (assuming it is mtk) just download the firmware NEVER FORMAT THE PHONE or else you will end up with totally dead phone(some times it works but mostly format will corrupt your flash ic)

Thanks for all the suggestions, i just got my phone to a working state

Turns out the firmwares you guys got dont match my chipset

Had to get a firmware that matched my chipset

im on MT6737M 

Anyways, the phones back to life.

Thanks y'all
