was using zedomax's root method and got a bunch of errors "too many devices, more than 1 emulator" and now it won't finish booting. Gets just to the point where the unlock ring should come up and then nothing...
I can pull down the status bar and thats about it ...please help. I have the insurance, but will they be able to see that i started rooting it...
I would try to install the RUU to get it back.
It's probably not Bricked.
You can also check out the more full unlocking procedure http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690919
I believe one or both these procedures could be started while in the bootloader.
I'd try the RUU first though.
Look in the Sticky thread in Dev for the RUU (an EXE you run on the PC).

This happened to me as well. Then i realized i have both my old Epic4g AND my new EVOLTE plugged into my computer. I unplugged my epic and voila. it worked just fine. If it still doesnt work, try restarting your PC and redo the process.
Thanks guys for your answers. problem is resolved, but I will what happened in case anyone else has this problem.
I couldn't get the drivers to install on my laptop so I went to the desktop and ran the root. The error messages I got were like this: after the second reboot (supposed to reboot 3 times) it would say "device offline" and it filled the whole screen with that line. Then it said "error too many emulators" and then it would say it was done and that is as far as it would go. It did not boot a third time. I could reboot it, but it would only get as far as the screen JUST before the unlok ring comes up, and that's it.
After posting this thread I read another thread where someone suggested holding the volume down and power to bring up stock recovery and doing a factory reset from there (rookie mistake, I have had the Epic Touch for a while and forgot about the Evo's stock recovery). That got me back. THANK GOD! But still no root.
I didn't want to give up trying to I went back to my laptop and still without necessarily "installing" the drivers, went ahead and tried running the root and VIOLA! It worked flawlessly!
So I don't understand what was going on with the desktop though with the "device offline" and "too many emulators" thing, so if anyone could shed some light on that, I would appreciate it.
glad to hear you got it fixed but if you would have had to filed a claim then you can always say you lost it or something like that.
Ok first of all Im sticking this question in general android Q&A because there in no XDA Forum for this phone. It is a Straight Talk LG Optimus Q 55c, this is my girlfriends phone its basically an optimus p500/v with a sliding keyboard Overclocked too 800mhz. I own a virgin optimus V so I have a lot of experience with this platform but Im stumped maybe im just neglecting to see something, Im hoping "another set of eyes" will help turn on a light and get my girlfriends phone working again as she cant afford another :/!
So here is what Im dealing with. I had rooted the phone for her and installed clockwork mod recovery & fastboot. Since she got the thing its had problems freezing (probably because it stock overclocked), and occasionally pulls a random reset. She asked me If I could install another ROM on it to see if it may help make the phone more stable. I went a searching and found that the Optimus Q community is very small almost nothing and her only real choice was a port of the Area51 Rom. So Installed the rom.... A few days later she had told me her phone was mega slow now and acting up way more, so I told her I would flash back to stock.
I rebooted the phone and found to my surprise CWM and fastboot seemed to be gone... what the h*ll? Im assuming when I flashed AreaRom it installed the stock Recovery and removed fastboot, I cant figure out any reason why the stock recovery would be back on the phone. Anyways I didnt feel like flashing a new recovery at the time. Well 3 days go by and her phone crashes and gets stuck in a boot loop. So she went in to recovery and wiped it. The phone then went through the process of collecting e-mail and password, asking about backing up, then asking whether or not to turn the location services on. Once you hit next Android throws an exception and says setupwizard.apk failed to initialize or something along those line. So after that the launcher does not load only the task bar at the top. When rebooted the phone enters a boot loop againg until wiped.
So heres the deal I can use adb, but when I try to get into an adb shell the prompt says error: closed. I have been able to use adb to push and pull files that is all. I tried to push setupwizard.apk to the system/apps directory but of coures it needs to be remounted to read write and I dont have any shell access to do that. So basically adb sees the phone but the shell doesnt work, when i type adb root it reports adbd is running as root on the phone, so I guess the shell service just never loads.... I do have stock recovery but the problem with that is there is no update.zip files it will except I have tried a myraid of methods to sign an update.zip but every time I try to run the update the stock recovery says verification failed. Of course LG has no official updates for this phone using there signature that I can use.
So basically my phone works recovery works android starts but cant finish setting up and never starts the adb shell service. If anyone knows how I can push setupwizard to /system/app, get adbd to initialize, or sign a 3rd party rom and have the stock recovery use it I would be very gratefull! Maybe there is a way to get fastboot back on there or enabled or something? adb reboot-fastboot just reboots like normal. I am at the point where I going to take the phone apart to find a serial uart connection and pray I can get a shell that way!!
Ive looked into a few programs like kdz update and lgmdp but they dont seem to work with this phone and I cant get into any emergency mode, maybe Im doing it wrong this is the first ive heard of emergeny mode.

Needs update
This Phone really needs an update, it reboots and sucks, we can't even get into fastboot or anything to try to unlock the bootloader someone needs to make this possible because who in the hell uses only 4gb of storage, apps are so big and you can only download like 3 apps then you have to get rid of something if you want another app and its dumb so please someone..HELP US :crying:
Throwing my post up here so I can follow. Need root bad on this thing. I am using lite versions of every app. Lol
Same problem w/ ZTE obsidian..tCan't move to SD card. Anybody figure somethcing out yet?
I've gotten Kingroot to attempt to root it once and the results varied. Usually got 16% but the highest was almost 30% but I can't even get kingroot to even root it anymore.
The phone is not going into fastboot at all. I think the bootloader is locked. The phone will never be rooted.
I might of found a way, but it's untested so, proceed at your own risk, I am not responsible if your phone becomes bricked.
Enable developer mode and tick "OEM Unlocking" in the developer menu
Download SuperSU update zip from Chainfire's site and put it on your sdcard (internal won't work)
Power off your phone and hold power and volume up
Select recovery, wait for the android with the lid open to show up
Hold power and volume up for a couple seconds and let go
A menu should pop up, if not try again until it does
Select "update from sdcard"
Select the SuperSU zip
Let it flash the zip (shouldn't take long)
Choose reboot
See if SuperSU is installed and test that it works
Again, this is untested and would need a couple of people testing it to make sure it works flawlessly, so if this worked, please post that it did.
Nope. Thank you though.

Any type of error happen or did it not allow it to flash at all?
I can't even get to recovery. Gives me the choice then goes to dead android guy.

You have to hold down power and vol up for like 2 seconds when you get to the dead android, then you'll get the recovery menu.
When I try to install the update package, I get 'opening update package' followed after less than a second by 'installation aborted'.
I powered down from the Developer Options screen with OEM unlock turned on when trying to update - it appears to turn off during boot as it is off again on restart.
Any suggestions? I looked at the logs that are visible from the recovery screen but they did not seem to have anything useful. Are there logs I can retrieve via ADB to see what the issue is?
My phone has build B18.

OEM Unlocking is always on for me even after restarts but I haven't tried to flash SuperSU yet. You might wanna get a logcat while doing it and post it here to see if anyone knows what the problem is. I have an older build of the phone (B03) but I dunno if it matters or not.
EDIT: Also every new Kingroot build allows you to attempt to root it for like 2 days and then it just can't for some reason but the thing with 18% still happens.

The logcat I am familiar with is in ADB. The only way I can find to access the phone from recovery with ADB is to select the flash from ADB option, which puts the phone in sideload mode where you can't pull data off. I was unsure if trying to load the ZIP that way would brick the phone so I haven't tried it.
I also tried using Fastboot and it doesn't recognize the phone at any time.
Is there another way to capture what is happening with the update?
I tried selecting restart in bootloader from the recovery menu with the phone connected to the PC. It stayed at the ZTE splash screen for over 10 minutes but neither fastboot nor ADB was able to communicate with it. I tried various key combinations without effect and finally ended up pulling the battery. Maybe it just froze up during boot for some reason.
I have tried every one-touch root I can find, none of them work. All the manual guides start with unlocking the bootloader - which I can't find any info on for this model. Based on the partition info, it's definitely locked: it has 27 (!) partitions including names like seccfg and oemkeystore. Is this normal for a lollipop device?
hi,
"maybe you saw this post elsewhere but i was forwarded here so the rest is the same"
have elephone p2000 with some custom rom on it and working stock recovery. than i flash new rom called resrom 1.5, rooted BUT internal storage is access denied and 0kb. Just to say that my usb port is broken and will be hard to replace it because someone was trying to make it work and totally screwed up.
So anyway I cannot connect to a pc and fix things. Next, cant access recovery, tried to flash new one but to no avail. I am still rooted but even when using some apk to flash new rom or recovery i get msgs like "not enough space" or nothing is happening.
info on the phone:
ELEPHONE P2000 MT 5692
4.4.2
MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V35.P8.2014/11/03
KERNEL 3.4.67 [email protected] #1
BUILD P2000_20150228_RESTORN
Play store ok, calls and the rest is fine, apk i am using: mobileuncle, rashr, auto flasher but nothing gets job done, flashyfy doesn't work and many others. I was looking into init files saw some guide but don t want to mess things even more so i gave up, also wanting to flash boot.img but no proper or functional apk for it.
sometimes on phone start stuck in a loop of screen turn on for 20 sec and then off and its like that until i remove battery, all before rom logo, same thing if i try use buttons combination for recovery or whatever i press in any combination nothing changes.
This is not my first smartphone but is of this kind and funny companies, had problems before with Sony, Samsung but in this extent never, always find YOU guys everybody clever in some fields and as a community more than THE BEST, as you can see i dont post or seek answers by asking, i rather research until now. I fell hopeless, useless and never more stupid, or i m just tired of looking for the answer. In some other case i would give it to my child to play the games an to hell with this phone but its my wife's and she dont want to by a new phone for some reason. Help me to be the man of the house again, kidding, loosing it....
I think I gave you overall picture of the phone state and someone might show me the way to have fully working phone. I forgot, if you are wondering how do i charge battery, well I take it out twice a day and charging on the base of other broken phone, that part i did cover, help me with the rest.
p.s my SD card is working most of the time so this is my only connection to a pc....

Please please please help!!! Lg G3 model sv985 running lollipop 5.1.1
So one day I wanted to connect my ps3 controller to my ps4. I found out how to do it but it requested my phone to be rooted. So after a couple of days trying to root my phone I finally found a solutions. I used the kind root method. After getting root access you are required to put your phone into recover mode. The problem I am having is when I go into recovery mode all I get is an error message stating "secure boot loading error 1003" then proceeds to go to a black screen with the notifications lights blinking red and blue. Then I have to take my battery out and reboot my phone that way. It starts up normal but twrp does the same process as do other rebooting apps. Today I got the update to install marshmallow 6.0 and it also needs to go into recovery mode. When I try to reboot the same black screen appears. I finally came to agreements with myself to just get rid of root and go back to kitkat then upload 6.0. My problem here is the program you need to download to switch back requires a password and user name. Which according to the steps, you just download a file then switch it to the program and shouldn't need a password or username anymore. Every time it fails. Sorry kinda spaced what it's called. (it's the program needed to downgrade sorry I forgot the name) I've been at this for about a month and now my phone won't even get notifications. The root totally messed it up. I wouldn't mind if I could get super su to work. Basically my question is, how can I get around the secure boot error 1003 to get into recovery mode. Even if I just take my root loses and uprgrade to 6.0. All I need is to reboot, it shouldn't be so hard. All the YouTube videos I have found are all in Spanish that get good reviews but I can't understand most of the conversations. Thank you to the XDA for everything you guys do. Your awesome!
