I was doing a tutorial to flash a ROM (jelly crem) on my P768 ICS, than the video said to format system trought CWM, I do it so, but after this the ROM.ZIP cannot install, it's said (bad) then give this maage "installation aborted".
But because the format, I have no ROM on the cellphone, get stucked on LG logo, inanother word's I BRICKED IT.
Now I want to know how to recover it:
1. When I try to do the hard reset, I get on the CWM
2. I didn't make any backup (i try it one time, but now I discover that the backup is corrupted
Can't get in to hard reset, can't install ZIP rom,...
Can I do something or my cellphone is Dead?

Go to your old post, I can tell you how to fix it. These phones can't be bricked. I've had similar situations trust me.
UPDATE
I can't Install KDZ, because the last method of Bootloader unlock made that KDZ offline always says that USB is not connected
1.Hard Reset Won't access anymore (the cause must be thata I installed 2 CWM :c
2.SW update don't see the USB because last KDZ offline method
3.SW says Bootloader is unlocked
Can't use any of the above, only CWM and Fastboot I think
Did you try Factory reset in the CWM?

I created this thread because I have looked all over and have been unable to find someone with the exact same issue(s).
I said "sort of" in the title because twrp is working. Ok, so before everyone asks if I have nvflash, the answer is no. I did not have the right version of firmware, and did not try to install it originally. Since I was able to install roms, I figured I was fine...oops.
Twrp is not properly installing roms. More on that later. I am getting to the asus splash screen that says my device is unlocked, but it is stuck there.
My last working rom was the deodexed stock JB rom from craig gomez. I installed it with goo and when I installed that, I lost custom recovery and root, so I decided to go back to a more custom rom so Titanium backup would work. When I did that, I tried also tried again to make nvflash work. I got through the first step, it said it was successful, except I never got the little message in the upper left corner that I was supposed to get. I did not think it was a big deal because my prime would still boot like normal.
Then I installed twrp 2.3.1.0 and I have tried flashing previous restore images. I have tried installing the roms on my sdcard. I cannot get past the asus splash screen.
If I try installing a rom with the force md5 check enabled, it does detect an md5 and then quits.
If I try intalling a rom without the force md5 check, i get an error that says E:Unable to mount '/staging'
When I try installing a backup everything seems to work okay, but then I get the same error E:Unable to mount '/staging'
When I try to install roms through fastboot, I get the following errors:
archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'
archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'
error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt
When I try using adb, I do not see any devices.
I tried putting CWM on the prime to see if I could install from that instead, but it would not load after install.
I tried putting an older version of twrp on the prime, to see if that was the issue because I used to have an older version...I could not get that to load either...so I went back to this version.
Any ideas or suggestions would be awesome guys. I am stuck.
I even went to install the naked drivers again, and when I try to flash a different recovery, I get the <waiting for device> text that never goes away.
i'm sort of on the same boat. my prime just keeps booting into twrp recovery no matter what i tried. i'm still hoping to find a solution to this problem.

For me, I can let it try to boot normally, but I get stuck at the splash screen. This device is unlocked.
If I hold down the volume down button, I can go to fastboot, or RCK for recovery...but it does not work properly.

Same Here.. It all happened when i restored my files using titanium backup and when i rebooted im stuck at boot scrren
EDIT: Guys I did a prime fullwipe and flashed stock jb and now prime is restored to its original state..
""I also got some errors like md5 file could not be found and could not find the /staging""..but after the reboot it works perfect
EDIT 1: Now after the prime fullwipe and flashing stock jb i flashed twrp recovery and now it works perfect without a single error even the above mentioned errors were gone

That doesn't really help us. If possible, can you edit/delete your message so that the guys that might help do actually help? Don't want them to think this is done.
Can you clarify what the Prime fullwipe is and how you got there?
I do not know if it will help me.
I can't even do the wipe command from fastboot.
Just says <waiting for device>
I have tried the wipe command form the boot screen (the one with fastboot and RCK as options), that did not work properly either.

here is what i did. get into twrp recovery. flashed full prime wipe -> right after that flash the stock jb US version directly dled from Asus -> reboot then you will be stuck at the splash screen (that's a good news). Hold down power + volume down until your prime turns off and restart (keep holding those two keys) until the 3 icons appear then flash w/e rom you want in recovery. It's alive!
In twrp I do not see anything that says Full Prime Wipe. I see something that says wipe. Are those the same? I tried doing a wipe from this screen, but it did not work for me as expected.

no full wipe is a stand alone zip file you have to google and find dl it. put it in your prime then flash it

I am pretty sure I am F***ed.
I tried the prime full wipe. It worked the first time, I think. Then went to install a rom.
I had to do both through external SD in twrp because my adb is not working. Also, fastboot only works to install a recovery. The only version of any recovery I can make work is twrp 2.3.1.0
If I try an older version or CWM, it freezes where I try to go into recovery.
Unable to mount data error.
Unable to mount system error.
Same as before.
I tried using unbricker software I found, but since adb does not work properly, the software does not work properly.
I am going to see if I can work my charm and get them to take back my tablet at best buy for an infinity. I have read about other people pulling it off.
I think as we get closer to xmas my odds improve...UNLESS SOMEONE HAS ANOTHER IDEA??? I would love to try something else.
Eyeballer suggested a chat room channel thing, but most of the people are in europe and I would need to do it in the morning...I do not have time for that, but I may try it.

Download the zip:
http://goo.gl/hiFHB
Goto to Twrp recovery and install the zip..Since it supports microsd u can transfer the zip to microsd.
Goto TWRP -> INSTALL -> CHOOSE EXTERNAL SD -> INSTALL THE ZIP
It will completely wipe the internal storage and then download the official STOCK JB FROM ASUS SITE and follow the same steps to install. Now install the latest twrp recovery using fastboot

1. No md5 file found
2. Mount error
3. Cannot find /staging
Just follow the above the steps ull get it right
did you even follow my step by step guide? you can move the stock rom from external SD to your internal SD in advance -> file manager.

Yeah, I should have said I tried that first. I also tried the stock rom from asus. When that didn't work, I tried the stock rom deodexed I found in goo.
There are a bunch of permission errors going on inside my prime. When I go into the mount area, it will not let me mount the data to move it. Or, when I try to copy it over I get a failed message.
Okay. I wiped it again, from twrp.
Then it let me move the file from the ext-sdcard to the sdcard.
I used the prime full wipe.
Then I tried to install the stock rom by transferring it in twrp file manager.
I got the file onto the sdcard, but when i tried to install, it said Failed.
That was it.
I even tried installing the ICS version I got from ASUS. Same thing.
Now, I am going to try to access via unbricker...don't know if it will work, but I am out of ideas.

That is the last rom I successfully used.
I used all sorts of different wipes. I was in twrp and noticed my pc installing the transformer adb driver. So I hopped into adb to see if it would see my device with that driver. (it did, but it wasn't before from the fastboot or adb commands with naked driver).
I tried sideloading the above rom from twrp. It worked.
Thought others might want to know.
I do not know if I can install other roms or not. I am a little scared to try just yet.

You will have the jelly bean bootloader now so as long as you stick to it you should be fine. The only other thing I would suggest is check you version of twrp, you should be running the jelly bean version of it also. And if I am not mistaken, you need to be on ics to use nvflash (although I haven't checked the op recently so I could be wrong) so definitely stay away from that unless you downgrade.

I had this problem once to. On my HTC Flyer, nothing I could do to recognize the phone. I had to ditch the HTC Driver and tried every copy of the android drive I could find on XDA. I will see if I can find the file that worked for me. But in the interim you may want to try a few.
BTW I am not an expert. This worked for me and it sounds like the same situation to me. :fingers-crossed:
Here's a question: where'd you get the recovery? http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager, i don't see your device as supported. Also, i believe they're called universal naked drivers, that may be of help.

I am not a developer or anything & havent read many forums...but while playing with myTouch I did get stuck a few times.
Somethings I cant point out if u wanna try as a layman:
1. can u mount your sd card through recovery?
2. if you can than just pick another rom for your device and put it onto your sd card
3. wipe data & partition, wipe cache, delete davlik. some devices work ONLY with wipe script (for my friend only the wipe script worked)
4. dont use odin. go to cwm recovery & install zip from sd card & choose the rom (the 1 from step 2).
I think that should get u out safely....hope it helps
@bodh
i actually installed a cwm 5 version
maybe thats the cause of the whole problem
@indiankarmas
i did install multiple roms from the sd card, first cm9 then stock rom
but it doesnt really work
how i fixed the problem:
when i flashed cm9 and used the bootloader with odin to pass the recovery mode my phone booted the stock os
installing from the external sd didnt work, i just wiped my phone for nothing
it booted the stock os, i didnt want this but this made my pc recognize my phone
so i transferred the rom and gapps in the internal sd
got back to recovery mode and installed from internal sd
and used the bootloader again to pass the recovery mode
again, i appreciate you guys trying to help me out

What is the exact "Status 7 error" output?
Status 7 error can be caused by trying to install a ROM that is not specifically designed for your phone model a P768, and you try to flash a P760 CM11 ROM. When flashing that ROM the updater script checks the device model/ID and if it doesn't match that of the ROM being flashed, it will abort the installation.
Make sure that your flashing the proper CM11 ROM for your specific device.
Status 7 error can also be caused by, installing the wrong or improper CWM recovery version for your device and or ROM being flashed.
Double check that the recovery version you installed is the correct CWM recovery for your device and/or the CM11 ROM that your trying to flash. CM11 also requires a specific CWM recovery version to be flashed.
Thanks for your answer, I solved this way, I get back to the especific rom for my device, I can only do that trough the automatic lg support tool, cause when I tryed to flash get error of disconnected phone at 15%, later I saw that I need a specific recovery to flash the rom, so I downloaded and send it to the phone, after that I could flash the rom without problems and I'm now rocking my phone with KitKat :laugh:
Thank you. I was really scary but now I know that can get restored thru the lg utility.

Phone: LG Aristo MS210 (Metro PCS)
Bootloader: TWRP 3.0.3.0
So let me explain. I was just figuring out how to root the LG Aristo since I had never done it with a custom ROM. Yes, true story. Anyway, I was happy I got it working perfectly until I rebooted my phone. When I rebooted it, SuperSU was gone. I tried going to the play store and redownloading it, but I got an error code -504, and the thing is, I couldn't download any apps. ANY. I decided to look the error code up and I can't find anything on it. I tried multiple times doing multiple different things. From factory resetting, reflashing SuperSU, to factory resetting and then flashing SuperSU, wiping dalvik-cache along with everything except for system. It didn't work and I thought I could get it working.. Well... this next part I really messed up on. I decided to wipe everything. I selected all options and slid the cursor and it failed. The wipe failed. It said "E: /sdcard1 unable to partition" or something like that. I noticed that when I was wiping earlier the internal storage was also called that, and the funny thing is I have no microSD card in my phone. So. :/
Now when I boot I'm stuck on the LG splash screen and nothing else happens. I tried recovery mode (without ADB) with the power button + vol down key as I read here: (I'd post link but I'm a new member) that's how you get into recovery/factory reset. I'd use ADB to get into recovery, but since I just wiped the system, I don't have USB debugging enabled. I tried anyway and I gotta say this is my worst nightmare as I'm too young to get a job, (15 yrs. old) so I can't get a phone. :/ Oh, and if this can be useful: I know it connects to my PC over USB because I hear the sound it makes when a new device is connected. Is there any way I can use that to unbrick it?
EDIT 9/10/2017 9:31 PM (Eastern Time): I managed to get into twrp. I'm currently looking online for how to flash android 7.0 nougat (OS it originally had)

Hi,
Well the only way to fix this is that u need to be able to boot into recovery.
If u tried booting into recovery by holding the power and vol+/- and u end up booting to the boot logo, then recovery is also wiped.
In this case, u will need to check if u have access to fastboot. If so then obtain the twrp recovery for ur device and flash it then tried booting into recovery using the appropriate keys.
When I get time, I will research ur device for any recovery tool and stuff.

I managed to get into recovery. I don't know how to flash Android 7.0 for my Aristo, though.. so I'm researching it.
EDIT: Got a ROM flashed. Everything working now.
please help me this is between live and death. I bought a coolpad 8715 but the android version doesn't work with Playstore and everything about it is in Chinese, I try to change the language to English but the apps are still written in China. please how can I install another OS on it that support Playstore. I downloaded the firmware ( 8715_4.4.016.P1.8715.CPB ) which is in CPB format and i try to extract it to change application and some settings, after extraction I found some files but I don't know which one to edit or how to. The help I needed is that, how to edit my firmware .....CPB file after extraction and pack it back as .......CPB file so that I can use it to flash my coolpad 8715. Or is their any OS or ROM I can use like KitKat, lollipop, marshmallow miui etc. I try to update the phone with wireless hotspot, not working. I also try to install KitKat 4.4.2 Custom ROM through the phone recovery mode which is in China, but showing verification failed and signature error. please help me what can I do, am ready to take any ricks.

Hi all,
I tried to root my ohone using this walkthrough:
https://romprovider.com/sony-xperia-xzs-root-twrp/#Download
I managed to unlock bootloader and then flash everything it said without any errors but then the phone wont boot past the sony start screen. Ive been trying to flash back a stock ROM. Used "emma" and flashed firmware it offered in program. It said successful but still wont boot.
Can anyone please spell out how I resolve this in layman terms? Im pretty good with PCs but the language around rooting and these instructions are always a bit unclear to me being a noob to this.
I cant boot to TWRP on the phone just not the OS. Have tried clearing cache and resetting through twrp..
Thanks for any help!
Boot into TWRP and wipe data partition. If it still doesn't boot then try this guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/xzs/how-to/tutorial-step-step-guide-to-gain-root-t3612624.

Thank you. Wiping the data partition didnt work. I haven't had luck with the flash tool in that walk through either. When I download latest version from link it is a version that doesn't have Xperifirm built in. I downloaded xperifirm seperately but when I try any of the roms it downloads it fails with an error about missing sin or something like that. I will check the error again. Thanks
OK seems I have a stable phone again after using emma again and managing to load properly. Will do the twrp and root parts again. Also I think I botched the back up step in that link. Im going to follow it again.

Thanks
Now the phone boots after loading magisc and drm but the wifi wont work. It wont allow me to toggle it on.
Any suggestion on where I went wrong or how to restore wifi?
Success!!!
