Phone bricked

Hello everyone! I think I made a big mistake, I formatted the phone internal rom and since it is stuck on the boot start. My only way to intervene on the phone is Flashtool. Does anyone have a solution? Thank you in advance for your help ...

I made a video to better explain my problem ...

it is I managed, with TCL updater after two times the phone restart with his Roma origin in 1006!

Hello,
I just got a TCL S950 and would like to install Google apps on it. (I want to stay on the original ROM for now). Could anyone give me step-by-step instructions? (I haven't rooted any phones or done something similar before).
Thanks
