[SOLVED]How the heck to recover from brick - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

Doing the OFFLINE KDZ FIX guide, everything looks correct except for the part where it's an off color green[basically the final stages] it gets stuck at 4% and also I can make out that it reads the phone as not connected. I've had this same issue trying to flash kdz at the menu before you click "normal web upgrade start" or w/e and it's reading the correct COM port[I manually changed "LGE Mobile USB Serial Port to COM1] however not connecting to phone even though it's in S/W Upgrade mode[not inverted, looks normal with yellow arrows].
FYI My phone will boot to standard looking LG, then black screen. Hard Reset[Vol down + home + power] shows android with molecule thing spinning but just boots back into black screen.
I can get fastboot [from a fastboot.zip containing a white background designed to flash u-boot and x-loader] to fastboot phone[the phone just says fastboot v0.5 with silver LG logo and letter inverted/backwards]. When in fastboot no matter the options I give it just hangs on "waiting on device" until phone eventually just reboots to black screen.
My brick happened after leaving on charge overnight, woke up 6 hours later and the damn thing was black.
HELP!!!!!
Everything is correct according to guide. Except the phone ain't working right.
Also at the black screen when connected to usb windows tries to install MTP drivers.
NOTE: The night before I went to sleep I changed like 10 things in Pimp My Rom(Beta) and the brick happened. I didn't change anything I didn't feel safe about. Just some battery/cpu performance tweaks. I had changed several several things before then and it never bricked. Not really sure what to do.
I FIXED IT WITH A LITTLE FIX OF MINE, WROTE A TUT IN GENERAL FOR LGMS769 USERS

You're going to need to get fastboot to work, seems to be a drivers problem. Make sure you have the omap drivers. Once and if you get fastboot you need to flash ics uboot and xloader. This should get you past the offline flash problems.

Droid razr fastboot fail/rsd lite

I hope I am posting this in the right section. I will try to keep everything grouped together so that it makes sense.
I have a rooted droid razr. I was trying to flash the eclipse rom, and my phone became soft bricked.
When I turn the phone it bootloops. I get the M symbol, the word droid appears, the metal things opens, I get to the red eye and it loops.
It did not recognize the battery so I had to pull off the back cover and place the charge wires on the terminals so that I could get into AP fastboot.
to the best of my knowledge the device was on 2.3.6
After trying just about everything i decided i would need to get rsd lite and flashboot a new system to it. The flashboot file downloaded and uncompressed just fine. When it gets to step 2. "Reboot bootloader" The flashboot screen on my phone flashes off then on, the program sits there saying that it is till in progress. After about 5 minutes the program comes back with a failed error.
Edit: So after watching a little more closely this time, I have found that when my screen flashes on fastboot screen, it does not recognize that the phone is still plugged in to the cpu.
Does anyone know of a way or the trick there is to getting passed this?

If there is anymore information you need please let me know, via this site or email and I will get it to you ASAP.
Sorry if this in the wrong section I'm new
The only thought that I had is that i have the wrong fastboot file, but I'm not sure that matters because the phone is saying that it has no os essentially.
Thanks to everyone in advance.

Bricked after CM11 4.4.4 update

Hi guys,
My XT910 ran Cyanogenmod 11, Kitkat Nightly. Tonight an OTA update appeared (something called snapshot or something). Thought it might fix some thing that were not quite right in my version so decided to update. At some point during this process the screen went black then the M logo appeared than the android recovery menu (i can load it). And nothing else. I tried rebooting, wiping cache, reset to factory, nothing works. Copied several ROM on the sd card because i have the option to update from sd. Nada. I gotta tell you i'm on a Mac and i cant change that this week, no Windows till next week. And probably the battery is draining...
What to do?
This is how it goes:
I can not power down the device
It restarts periodically if no action taken
at first the M logo appears
instead of CM logo there is a robot with an exclamation mark inside a red triangle
i can get into recovery menu by pressing the volume keys
i can choose one of the options but nothing else
when applying updates from sd card (stock 4.1.2, nightly rom or snapshot rom) it goes up to "verifying update" then it abandons
Later edit:if i reboot from recovery menu and when it powers off i press pwr and vol- it goes to boot menu. No windows means no adb hence power off from that menu. when i plug in the charger, the M logo appears andstays there. Question: if it does actually charge the battery and i dont fix it before getting a windows, what kind of rom should i flash? Stock?
OK, I tried updating the M10 snapshot today over my current M9 snapshot that I had installed.
As it was updating, the screen went off and then I couldn't get anywhere past the M Logo, pressing the volume keys I'm also able to navigate to recovery etc.. but that's it.
I was not able to boot the phone off and even though the screen was off, I don't believe the phone was off. When I got home, the only thing I knew to do was to flash a stock JB rom using RSD Lite. But when I tried flashing it a few moments ago, it failed - the battery is low apparently. Putting it on charge I can now see a charging logo on the screen that is not centered, but I believe it is charging. Once I've got some juice I will try flashing it again, and then I think it's a whole process of rooting it, installing SafeStrap again, and then starting over with CM11.
I don't know if you can even get RSD Lite for MAC, but it's the only way I know that should work to get the phone back up and running.
Thanks for sharing.
There is no RSD for Mac, nor something similar. But i've managed to set up a virtual xp machine (modern.ie), installed everything, captured the usb port with the phone stating "usb connected". Unfortunately i just couldnt connect the phone to rsd, no matter what i did.
Oh gosh.
I managed to get my phone back by flashing the stock JB rom and then working from there.
Try going to the boot menu thing (hold down all keys) and then navigate to AP fastboot. RSD lite should see the phone in this mode.
But make sure the battery is OK first. I did manage to charge it to 40% and it then flashed after it had some charge. Seemed to flash it a little differently than other times. Also the phone said "Device is LOCKED", but thankfully it all worked out fine. Now I'm on CM11 09/15 Nightly.
Have you installed the Motorola drivers?
Maybe you can't do it through a VM.

"Device is locked" means that bootloader is locked in our phones,except those few developer edition models.
Sent from my Razr XT910
I'm glad you could do it. Mine seems to charge as well, it's now close to 24h since it bricked and i assume it would just die if it wouldnt charge in that particular state. Fortunately the keys on the Mac keyboard started working again after drinking beer two nights ago so i dont need to trick the virtual machine anymore, but unfortunately i just cannot get the rsd to see the phone on this VM. Probably should try a VM with windows 7 - i guess ill just do that. I have installed the drivers, the VM recognizes the phone (moto spyder adb...) but rsd wont see it, nor the adb driver installer (it needs to identify the device in order to install the proper drivers). I know that rsd is picky when it comes to usb cables, it might just not work with the original cable, but after trying 4 different cables i tend to think this is not the problem
P.S. I'm very upset on Google about killing Motorola and being disrespectful with its own customers (i mean i would have been expecting to be the first to get Android updates, not to wait one year to be able to update from 2.3 and i couldnt imagine they will not roll out RAZR updates after 4.1.2) so my next phone will be a Nokia Lumia. The coolest one, like my StarTac, my V70, my V3, my RAZR...
You maybe successful with a Windows machine
Indeed i was. It was fast and sound, no problems at all flashing stock rom. Though the phone didn't actually charged when plugged in and displaying the M logo. I had to actually sacrifice a usb cable and charge the battery directly.
I have the same problem - I updated to the last snapshot, and did a wipe in safestrap - and got bricked.
Only difference is I can't flash nothing! and in AP Fastboot mode the computer doesn't recognize anything.

[Q] LG L31L (aka F70, Access 4G LTE) Won't Turn On

Hey guys, I'm new to this site and I hope this is being posted in the correct area and I apologize if it's not.
Anyway, I have an LG Access 4G LTE StraightTalk android phone. The other day, I rooted it and everything worked fine and I was having a good time editing things and customizing. Last night, I download the Clockwork Recovery Mod app and my intention was to reboot into the CWR mode and install a zip file for a custom animation, (and yes, I know how simple it is normally, but this one required extra steps). Now, seeing as my phone is relatively new (February 2014 release) I figured I could've gotten a recovery module from a similar phone. Wrong! I'm pretty sure there was a warning that advised against it, but I didn't listen. I clicked "reboot into clockwork mode" and my phone screen went black and hasn't come back on at all. No power buttons, or combinations will work. However, when I took out my battery and plugged in my charger, it shows an empty battery with a charger plugged in and a large yellow triangle with a question mark in it. While it is in this state, if I hold the power on button or any other sequences, the screen goes black and displays the same symbol again. When I plug the battery into it, the symbol goes away, and nothing happens. Although, when I plug it into my computer with the battery inside and all, I can hear my computer making the "something is connected sound" then like 10 seconds after, "something was disconnected". You know, like when you plug and unplug a flash drive or something. It's also worth noting that I don't have an SD Card so all of my rooting and download was done onto my internal memory....... I'm boned right now. Can anybody help?
the same problem

I think you're confused. My phone won't turn on at all. The screen is black and it will not power on. I don't see anything in the device manager when it's plugged in. My laptop makes the sounds but nothing happens. And I read your post and to confirm, we both have the Straight talk LG F70, also known as the LG Access 4g LTE. So we have similar situations with the same phone.
Sorry I don't understand why you say i confused maybe my english is'nt good enought
My phone won't turn on at all even not batery image but in the device manager
I have Qualcomm, HS-USB QDLoader 9008
I break my phone because I do worst experiments and I know the consecuencies
I backup all original partitions I can give you if you find the way to restore it
this phone and all qualcom from nowdays has 2 dead modes 9008 & 9006
In this post explained
for the mode 9008 the oficial tool for all is QPST
rusian post about
If you check that nothing in the device manager you can have QHUSB 9008 mode but i cant do anything in it for the moment this mode is really hard to work it
The test point for this LG to force in 9008 go in atachment.
The only form I know to save your phone If you achived somethink like a disk with ext partitions that windows don't recognize when you conect to pc
I have the original recovery and then you flash it
I flash a custom recovery but this don't break the phone exept the recovery because
you have to unlock bootloader to do this and i did'nt
Also for a custom animation the only needed is root and is stored in /system/media/bootanimation.zip
Is there a thread for this phone anywhere?
Found one last night in a car I just bought, it is locked with PIN, no SIM card was dead so not a current phone and dude hosed me on car deal so a toy for me...
Wanted to at least get into phone to see if could get my active Tracfone SIM to use their network, phone died that it was in, if I could force my way into it somehow or figure out how to hard reset I would be in a much better place than I am now... Any other pages to look for help, or you guys know anything?
Tried the basics, power and - volume, just a reboot loop...
hey guys how i can enter recovery on my lg l31l or f70

Bricked Xperia Z3v with locked bootloader, can't enter recovery or flash mode

Hi guys. So I have been going through xda and Google for hours and hours trying solutions, to no avail. I almost never post on forums for help because I can usually find the solution. Not this time. This is my last resort next to throwing my phone out a window or praying for death's sweet release.
The facts: I have a rooted Xperia Z3v. I tried to upgrade TWRP in order to follow some directions on upgrading to Nougat. I flashed TWRP from 2.8.X.X to 3.X.X.X. I rebooted and it never made it to the Sony logo. Now, if I plug the phone in to either a wall socket or PC it vibrates, endlessly at three second intervals, each time with red LED. If I try to enter flash mode, then its the same but with a brief green led after the red. I can enter fastboot (the only way to stop it vibrating while plugged in) and my PC sees it, including Flashtool, but since my bootloader is locked permanently, I can't really do much with it.
When plugged into the wall-charger, I noticed that the charger's LED changes from "Active" to "Inactive" with every vibration. I'm pretty sure I'm in a reboot loop. The screen is totally dead and there's no logo, but every three seconds it kills it self and comes back.
I have tried everything I could think of.
What I have:
I have the stock firmware ready to go
I have TWRP backups on SD card and PC
I have Flashtool
I think my drivers are good, but not 100% sure
I can fastboot
I'm at my wit's end and losing hope.
Please, I'm open to any suggestions at all.

"Broke" Coolpad Torino with TWRP - Help

Helloooo,
I have a big problem, cant get my phone running again.
The sad thing is, I just got it 4 hours ago
So heres what I have done to my Phone:
I rooted it with Kingo-Root and then installed a app where TWRP was listed, there also was CWM and stuff and I thought I have to flash my phone there with TWRP to install a new ROM and stuff and I clicked there on flash.
Then it asked me if I want to restart in, I cant remember recovery and/or download mode, I clicked yes and from there the trouble began.
When it starts the Coolpad Logo appears, then it say "Download and install the package?", to confirm volume up, to abort volume down. If I press abort, it just goes off, the restart may leads to the battery charging screen ( usb cable is always connected!!), if I press volume up, it says "Information - Do not disconnect data cable", but it says it for forever, nothing happens.
If data cable isnt connected, it shows Logo and then goes off, doesnt do anything.
I wish I would have never done that, Im too stupid for stuff like that.
Can someone help me out?
Hopefully
Hi are you able to enter in TWRP recovery in orden to try to flash him back to stock rom ?
Sadly no
I read some stuff on the internet, and tried it:
I installed andoid studio on my PC, with all that drivers, connected the Phone to my PC and looked it up in the device manager.
Before it was just recognized as "Other devices - Android" without any information, now I had the Hardware ID and put that into the setup text of Google drivers and installed them.
My PC somekind recognizes the phone. (but not like normally)
Maybe i can get the Stock Rom to phone that way somehow?
Edit: its called adb interface in device manager
Now I tried to set up the stock-rom via YGDP, and well, it kinda worked.
Im now out of this mode.
If I start the phone it makes its starting sound and it response to "key"-presses by vibrating, but, no screen, its just pitch black.
Its not listed in device-manager anymore.
Any suggestions?
bad support.

That is probably because you flash incompatible firmware which does not recognize display of your device .
Search on the internet for another genuine rom and repeat flashing process .
I had alsmost same issue when I flashed Blu Studio D572i with rom of D572a as I remember , was black screan completely but buttons are working (showing light) .
