[Q] Can I send a rooted phone in to LG for repair? - Verizon LG G2

OTA bricked phone, still booting to Cyanogen, can't restore from nandroid, just boots back into CWM...if I send that in to LG as a last ditch effort, is it covered?

Can you get into Download mode?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960

Hey Matt, no download mode...only CWM...when I try to restore a backup, it goes through the restore and then boots back into CWM. I've tried everything I can that I have found on here...even the ubuntu way, but I can't even see the device with ubuntu...something about qualcom drivers that I can't install.
the LG Flash tool requires download, I've been through that process before. I was hoping that since I can still get into CWM, i would still be good, but alas, NOTHING WORKS, lol.

Are you using the LG cable that came with the phone for your download mode attempt? I thought I read others have issues when not using it. If you are, sorry, no other ideas here.

yes, the LG cable that came with the phone

i can get into sideload mode, but can't send any other rom to the phone, only CM roms start to load, but then nothing...everything else says cannot read sideload
ADB push isn't working right either, maybe I'm doing something wrong with the command, but i've done it before on other phones...maybe LG is weird

[Q] I think some help is needed in urgency and wisdom

Hi everyone
After a lot of reading i decided to install a ROM. Now i was able to try to but none of them worked, so i ve been trying now for 3 days. I think i did it all as stated in this forums, it launched but never go to really open the OS, used to get stuck at the motorola or nexus logos or what ever logo from the different ROMs i downloaded.
I was able to go back to the original ROM but today im not being able to do so...
What can i do? Im at recovery and im able to restore boot but at system it says:Error while restoring /system!
I had it backedup at pc so i have also removed the one at sd card and tried with the one from PC.
What can i do (that doesnt involve getting another phone)
You can try RSDLite to flash back stock ROM just be careful and flash right ROM, otherwise you can brick your phone. You can't flash custom ROMs with RSD.

Boot the phone into bootloader/fastboot?
You have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery installed? I assume you have both since you were trying to install custom ROMs.
I have tried to the fastboot... im trying AP fastboot and theres where i am stuck right now.
Yes custome recovery and unlocked bootloader there. I had the phone moved to another couple of roms but the never loaded correctly so i went back to my original ROM, i tried a few other ROMs and none worked so this time i try to go back but it doesnt come back anymore... :laugh:
Try downloading PhilzAdvanced CWM Recovery. It is based off the latest CWM and should be able to flash your backups or ROMS. Maybe not your backups unless you made them with a CWM based recovery, but it should get you booted up.

1. Read the Myth Tools OP
2. Download Myth Tools
3. Download Philz CWM
4. Download a stock fastboot
5. Place the fastboot zip and the extracted recovery/cwm.img in their respected folders
6. Run Myth's executable and follow the instructions
7. If that doesn't work then read the faqs here and in the RAZR HD forums, all your questions have been answered already.
Still with same issue...
Phone is not recognized by the computer (tried 3 different laptops)
Cannot download the Drivers as its an automated process that begins when you connect the phone...
Does anyone knows an alternative to install AHD drivers ?

Again, my main issue device not detected by pc... so i cant download drivers using automatic tools that detects the phone because again phone is not detected and mythtools goes straight to the motorola device manager which needs a phone connected to act... so in a very bad circle i am... and i would try to use someone else phone but here in Costa Rica i know of noone else with a Motorola phone... everyone thinks it no longer exists... and i havent found a way to download the specific drivers for my specific device in a way it doesnt require to be connected.
You can boot into recovery? If so download the latest philztouch cwm recovery, put it on your sd card, and flash it from recovery. Then flash the ROM you want.

Nice i managed to flash the philztouch recovery... the damn phone doesn't want to accept any ROM... keeps aborting them. So far thanks a lot... ill read like crazy today again and ill ask for help if failure salutes me again!
:highfive:
If you made a backup of your stock after rooting try flashing that and then hooking your phone up to your pc
Sent from my MB886 using Tapatalk
It finally works
It works... i think somehow the recovery stopped working at some point... now with Philz phone was recognized by pc and i was able to use Myth tools to do the job. I think this will be my last Motorola...
Things to highlight:
1 i did read a lot before doing anything, still somehow screwed up, did read lots before asking here, still needed to ask... got answers, still needed to ask more... it was fun as everyone at work said: " its bricked fool buy a new one and stop playing to be good at something" but hell yeah its fixed!
2 i will try again to install another rom, i wont give up damn it!
3 i might begin with my wife Note 1, its old so its ok to brick it ha ha ha
4 damn it guys you are cool... wish i were 10% of you guys!
5 I think instead of all those different options out there we should recommend only to use the myth tools, its a complete package and its easy to use even with examples for newbies like me.
Again thanks and questions on friday after i brick it again e he he he...
The other stuff is there so you can understand what the automated stuff is actually doing.
Sent from my MB886 using Tapatalk
Ok so i have started the process again. I cant tell what i am doing wrong. I have flashed 2 different roms and none worked... its like im missing something.
I root the device, unlock bootloader... set the recovery with cwm... flash the rom... and it goes to moto logo and then black screen... am i missing something?
I did the exact same for the stock rom and it did work... also i did it all exactly the same using now myth tools... so any ideas? Should i leave the phone alone because its just simply not going to work or am i missing anything?

OTA issue

Recently I was having issues with my phone so I flashed the stock firmware and rerooted my phone. I hit to accept the OTA update by accident, and now I'm stuck in CWM recovery. I looked at other threads and the koush driver is not working, and when I try PDAnet's it thinks my phone is HTC and will not let me change that. I also cannot go into download mode, whenever I try to it just goes back to CWM. So ADB isn't working, nor is download mode. If anyone else has had issue with this and can help I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

Do you still have any ROM files you can flash on your device? I had an issue just like this, and luckily I had a rom zip still laying around on my phone.

That won't work, he's probably stuck in a boot loop from taking the ota. There is a thread somewhere in xda that will help you out with this.

Use the lg flash tool. Its a sticky in one of the g2 forums. Just to double check, your phone was connected to your computer when you rebooted correct? I think you jeedbto hold volume button up as well to get into download mode.

Install or reinstall latest drivers from LG and try again when it does'nt work change usb port or try it on other PC.
Good Luck..
as I am in CWM recovery, removed the sd card and put a room.zip and flash. Did the installation but when "reboot sistem" back to cwm recovery.
The problem is that the Phone was locked into CWM recovery. And I have no way to recognize the phone on PC. Is there any way to unlock the CWM recovery v6.0.4.5?

It has been stated time and time again that your must NEVER carry out a vendor OTA on a rooted or modified device. It causes a problem 90% of the time as the OTA has no flexibility to deal with something it isn't expecting to find - so you get exactly what you have.
Just be thankful that it is almost impossible to hard-brick our device or you really would have a paperweight. Instead you just need to search and read a little to get it back up and running.

You need to get your PC to recognise the phone, thats the first step in this repair (unless the usb port is broken, there's no reason why it wont recognise, whats your OS and version, usb 2 or 3?)
why not put cm10.1 on a microsd and flash it from there?

it still won't work, after upgrading it ota while having custom recovery installed, a person will be locked to recovery for some reason (atleast other people were). the only way to fix it that i know of is to reflash a kdz

cmon, pay some attention you don't need to turn on the phone, or boot into the system itself to boot into s/w mode. now, there are tons (like 3 or 4 guides, plus many other topics opened by people with exact same problem like you) threads that tell you what to do (hint: figure out how to boot into s/w mode), so i'll let you search around for the guide.
I suggest using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682146
It's easier, faster and safer than flashing a .kdz file. (Plus, it tells you how to get into the s/w upgrade mode!)

I think this method also flashes a kdz, but does it automatically for you. But yeah, this one is easier than manually flashing. Thanks for posting it
Also, thiy method will format internal sd card. My suggestion is to do a data/system format from cwm before you go in to flashing a kdz, either manually or automatically, so you don't end up with formatted internal sd card
A big thanks to SimonTS, JoinTheRealms, Flying_Bear and balloon27. This is a fantastic forum and you guys are spectacular. Due to professional reasons only going back to the forum after seven days, I go to the sea and I'm without net. Got this getaway just to thank you for the care provided, the mobile phone is the same and will just touch it after a week. Once again, thank you very much.
I just make the process advised by balloon27 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2682146). I have my 4X hd back .... yupi, yupi, yupi, yupi, yupi, ..... you guys are just the greatest. Once again a big thank you all of you. The 4X HD is working like a charm, a thank-you to the forum.

[Q] Hard Brick G900A: How to boot from extSdCard?

Is there a way to boot from the external sdcard without dismantling the phone and finding the strap?
Thanks!
Does the phone power on at all? Can you get into download mode or recovery? Also, everyone is going to want know how did you hard brick it, since your phone might be the first?
How i hard bricked my G900A
Well, i was using EFS Pro to backup my phone.
Everything went fine.
Afterwards i did a system + boot install from G900M so i could have it in my language. Went fine also.
I managed to save all stuff.
Then i reflashed to factory to restore the phone and wanted to check if my backups were fine.
But i forgot to uncheck the all partitions and when it started to flash cache it got stucked. Nothing works anymore.
Now phone is a total brick.
I managed to make a sdcard for recovery, but phone will not boot from the sd.

USB jig maybe?
The Gods Approve This Post, From The Ghost Of Sparta's S5 active.
USB jig should put you in download mode, and you could reflash whatever, or take out the battery, put it back in. Then put your USB cable in and try to go into recovery mode. Try doing it all at the same time, USB cable, and the recovery mode/download mode.
I do not think you are understanding.
I have a jig in my pocket alread for some years, this is NOT the problem.
Supose i did a nand erase, so there is nothing to boot from. Flash or Bios is BLANK, Gone, Kaput!
So i need to boot either from the USB or from the extSd.
I'm trying to find a solution for this, and may help all.
Please don't say to me to take the phone to repair... because i am the repair man.

No one has made a debrick image yet for this phone, because almost no one has hard bricked. Unless you somehow create a debrick.img image for your sdcard yourself, then you are pretty much out of luck.
It is NOT hard bricked if it powers on, soft brick is what it is. If you can use the jiig and it gets into download mode, you can recover. Looks as if you have a corrupt bootloader, does ODIN see the device at all?
I am having some Soft brick issues. I have tried multiple versions of ODIN and Kies. I have even tried to update from the stock recovery mode in the phone from the exsdcard. nothing seems to work.
Odin only gets so far then tells me it failed. tried flashing stock and others. Bunked up my phone good i think.
Any Help?
is there a firmware update that I can apply from the exsdcard via the recovery mode? I get to the Samsung Galaxy S5 screen then it sits there. even let it sit over night to see if it just needed extra time.
I have been using the USB cable that came with the phone.
Reading through the XDA portal posts, I did see this solution. Not for our S5, but supposedly this method should work for most phones. Worth taking a look at anyway just to find out. Maybe someone could make it work.
http://tinyurl.com/lq3z97m
is the link to the thread.
I guess I'm soft-bricked by everyone's definition.
I have an att s5 g900a. Towelroot, safestrap, backed up to extSD, DLed the Nuclearfallout rom from the s5 att development forums, moved it to extSD(I moved it twice I think, because I didn't unzip one beforehand.) When I needed to boot from ext sd after wiping all data, I accidentally just "booted system" I believe. I'm stuck in a bootloop, but I can get into recovery and download mode. Admittedly, I'ma n00b. This is my first root, and everything else. In recovery mode, I can get into a bunch of stuff, but nothing does anything. nothing. I can get into DL mode. It just says downloading from source I think. Anyone know how I can even get my backup back on there? If I can learn that, I can try to get some custom roms myself afterward. I hope this is a good place to put this question, because I have been having a hell of a time even searching for my question. It could be that the answers aren't out there yet, but I was thinking maybe I don't know some of the jargon to ask my question correctly. If anyone has any questions, I can try and answer, but I don't know how much help i'll be. Here's a few pieces of info that I thought might help:
It is the ATT G900A, but I paid it in full as a GO phone up front, and switched it to straight talk after my first month.
It's possible that the 2nd Nuclearfallout was still zipped as well.
I made 2 backups with safestrap, and saved them to extSD. They were rooted and unlocked when I made them.(Leads me to think it's possible to get some program, script, or something to boot into my backup.
I literally clicked on every single thing in recovery mode. They all just took me to .__// or whatever it shows at the bottom of each folder stack. If it isn't there, DL mode is my only bet right?
Thanks for the help if you got it folks!!!

When in safestrap and ready to wipe did you check all the boxes?? By the way you are NOT in a hard brick if that was the case you'd not be able to get into Download or stock recovery. Hard brick are black screen with no action at all when pressing buttons. Basically a paperweight and worthless.

The reason Odin doesn't recognize your phone is because you didn't have developer options open and debugging selected. when you boot SafeStrap screen doesn't come up? You don't try to get into recovery by the traditional method that's just stock recovery which won't do you any good

Has anyone created a debrick image for ATT Galaxy S5?? Is it possible to use the Note 3 ATT debrick image or is that a bad bad idea??

trying this now, hope it works! thanks so much for posting this.
UPDATE: IT WORKS!!! I was afraid my device was too far gone because there was no activity for a bit and it seemed like the USB was connecting and disconnecting over and over again... with the >Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008< listed in the device manager, then BOOM download mode! Thanks again!

Hello! I'm having similar issues...Could you please DETAIL the procedure you used to rescue your device?
I've downloaded the .rar and have the file ready to go but not sure of the steps to "install".
I know how to flash, recover, etc... but not sure what this particular process is.
PLEASE EXPLAIN!
THANK YOU!

Black screen on my OnePlus 3T

Hey guys,
today i decided to unlock my phone and do root. I followed the instructions but got an error after reboot where it said encryption unsuccesful. Later on i solved this problem and formatted my Data like told in the instructions. Then my phone stuck on a bootloop. My last chance was to get everything back to normal. So i thought to install the stock recovery and flash the stock Rom via sideload. After that my phone is just black. When i connect it with my computer it recognizes my phone but it still is black.
I really dont know what to do. Can someone help?

Are you sure you didn't by accident flash the 3s firmware on your 3t? That would explain the behavior of the phone.
Dont worry Try this
