  16. Please someone help mE fast, i have a yureka plus bought from Amazon. And i got a kitkat version without cyanogenmod . And two days earlier i had rooted it with kingeroot to use some apps like lucky patcher and stuff. Then I installed TWRP manager from play store and selected the latest TWRP zip to download and install. It asked me to reboot, and I rebooted but then my yureka stucked at the” yureka powered by Android logo”. What to do? And i guess my phone’s usb debugging is also off. And bootloader is also locked . In short i just rooted it and tried to install TWRP recovery but it failed.

  38. hello sir,
    your guide is excellent. i am able to enter in fastboot mode. but it stuck in fastboot mode after clicking flash all it only shows “waiting for device” .i think there is driver problem. i have tried so many adb drivers and usb drivers. but in device manager it shows “CODE 10” device cannot start.

    every time when i trying to install different drivers for different website it always shows finish successfully CODE 10 device cannot start.

    i have also installed latest android sdk and java but still problem remains the same.

    i think it may be because of USB DEBUGGING MODE disabled due to hard bricked.

    please sir help me i have tried so many guides to resolve this CODE 10 error in adb driver installation.

    please sir reply as soon as possible………

  45. Hi,

    I have tried your second procedure and followed by 4 steps from first procedure.

    After 4 steps I have short the 2nd and 6th point as described in the image and the same time I have pressed the volume up button, With this position I have attached the cable to my pc I released the volume up button and shorten cable from device but now I see the vertical lines on the screen as displayed when screen is broken. But, the is still there, no progress.

    I have detached the cable and pressed volume up button and connected the cable, now screen displayed normally with fast boot mode but driver is still missing, I think. When I tried to press Volume Up & down + power to see boot menu it displays Yu Logo with text “Boot ” and never gets the boot menu.

    I am having much hope in your post and I think you may be knowing this issue. Please help me to come out from this mesh.
