Hello Everyone,
My Micromax Canvas Nitro A311 is showing "no command" error. Actually I've never rooted it and never did any experiments on it. I was using it normally and then locked its screen and kept it aside for a few minutes and when I took it back to use again it was switched off.
I pressed power button to ON it (NOT pressing volume down button) but its only showing "no command" error screen with a red triangle error sign on android robot and when I pressed power button again it showed recovery menu. Exactly like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EdguhWt03w. I did "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition" and rebooted. After several tries it got me to setup screen (the one which you get after factory reset or during starting a brand new phone) and I selected language then connected to WiFi and after that option to check/uncheck permission for Google & Location (for android apps to determine your location and scan wifi networks even when wifi is off for improved accuracy and other purposes). But when I press forward arrow to go to next step it shows "setup wizard stopped working". Tried several time but no use. I thought I should try to flash it so I searched and referred this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/a310/development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-micromax-a311-t3365783. Now as I said I’ve never rooted my phone or never experimented with it so I don’t have TWRP or any other recovery installed. Only inbuilt recovery (that’s coming after no command screen as I mentioned before). So it doesn’t show ROM/Gapps on external storage. Somehow I figured this out that I can get access to internal storage when I connect my phone to PC (not to mention through USB) during that first time setup/installation screen (where setup wizard stopped working). I then copied zip files of Lineage OS 13 and Gapps 6.0 (pico) and soundpatch in phone’s storage and rebooted again and from recovery menu I selected "apply update from sdcard" and it showed zip files of lineage OS and Gapps and soundpatch so when I select lineage OS to install it, it shows "installing system update" but within a few seconds installation abort (NO error code is shown). I tried various ROM for Micromax A311 like:
Cm11 beta 2 By Pinto & Amit.zip,
CM12.1_Lolipop_5.1.1_AmakSevn.zip,
CM13-UNOFFICIAL-Snapshot-ZNH5YAO0FI-Nitro.zip,
lineage-13.0-20170523-UNOFFICIAL-A311.zip,
FireHound-BurntAss-2.0-20161110-A311.zip,
ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.2-20160731-A311.zip,
GalaxyRom_Ported_By_AmakSevn.zip,
MIUI 7 - 5.10.15.zip,
MIUI 7 5.9.1 MULTI BY JAVED(UNOFFICIAL).zip,
Miui 8_6.6.20_stallion mod.zip,
Also tried stock ROM for Micromax A311 but every time it shows installation abort after selecting ROM file. I also never created backup file so can’t restore.
Is there any way to install TWRP or similar recovery tool now? Is there anything at all that could be done at this point? Or this phone is dead?
