device is sm-a145R, MT6769V. stuck in bootrom mode, removed the battery and "inserted" it again, no luck. no button combination seems to restart the phone.

edit2: managed to restart it and make my computer read it in bootrom mode, can't find a way to exit it though. mtk reset does nothing. also, log get's stuck to "Jumping to 0x200000: ok before unfreezing the gui

Can You fix you phone

Not really, gave up eventually, but if I pick it up again and make it I'll let you know how I did it. Is the project abandoned by the way?

[D3vShoaib]

i think its because your phone cant enter brom mode, there are 2 solutions for this
1- open the device and disconnect the battery (this will shutdown the phone)
2- wait for battery to drain (reverse charge, wait ..etc)

any how you need shutdown the phone and enter the brom mode correctly mostly by holding the [ vol +, - ] simultaneously and connecting the use while script is waiting
