Hello everyone,
first of all im a total beginner on this field and it's the first time doing this stuff.
since there are no updates further than 4.2 for the beautiful HOX+ i tried to flash the cyanogenmod11 rom on my device. i used hasoons all-in-one toolkit. i followed the guide step by step and got stuck now in a hopefully not that serious problem.
i unlocked bootloader and flashed the cwm international recovery. the recovery was working fine and i did a backup. then i flashed the kernel with the boot.img from the cyanogenmod11.zip and the problems started. when normally booted the phone lights up with the white htc screen and then turns off again after about 3 seconds. i haven't flashed the CM11.zip yet and i guess that was the mistake? i still can acces the recover as well as the bootloader but like already said the phone doesn't start. another problem is that adb doesn't find the device enymore and only prints an empty line when using "adb devices" howevery using "fastboot devices" still gives me the proper result. hasoons toolkit also doesn't recognice the phone anymore.
if anyone could help either getting back to a custom rom or preferably setting up cyanogenmod properly would make me really happy =).
i hope this is the right place for this. i also searched around for hours and hours but can't find anything that helps me.

so you have installed the kernel but not the rom? if so, then you need to flash the rom and then it should work

you normally flash the zip via recovery, do you already have the zip on your phone?
if so, go into recovery and install, find the zip file and install it
if you don't have the zip on your phone then you will need to sideload the zip to your phone, (fancy way of copying the file to your phone) then post 4 tells you how to sideload the rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066390

the problem with this is that i first don't have the zip on my phone so cant install from the recovery and second that adb doesnt recognize my phone for whatever reasone so i can't sideload the rom. if anyone experienced similar problems (fastboot working, adb not) please let me know how to fix it
Lukas
another thing i just read about is the possibility if one already has installed a running cyanogenmod rom on his device he can extract that as an system.img if i remember right and i could use it on my hox+. just in case anyone knows how to pull that off let me know =)
otherwise still looking for hints how to install rom via fastboot or how to make adb working again

Try flashing the ROM onto the phones storage. Then you can install the ROM. If you cant even charge your phone then you have bigger problems than not having an OS installed.

Hi, i'm new to this forum and i need help to fix my phone. I tried to mod my phone and I end up brinking it (I think) and here is what I did:
1- Unlock my bootloader. Successfully
2-Flash TWRP recovery image. Successfully
3-Rooted with Android_Revolution_HD_Root_and_BusyBox. Successfully
4-Here is where everything started... I tried to flash a rom (Bulletproof-m7-3.2) and everything went wrong and please do not ask what because i do not know :crying:
now I do not have no OS and my internal storage is not working or missing or it being wipe off I do not know. I can access bootloader and TWRP recovery image but i can't install another rom because of the problem with the storage that do not let me copy files into it. Well hopefully somebody could help me with this and here is a picture from the bootloader.
Can you boot into your twrp recovery? You can always install the rom through side load. Some one correct me if I'm wrong with that because I'm not very experienced with that but I'll look around for a thread for it.
However I use a method I feel is very simple, but you just need a otg usb adapter. Put your custom rom zip on a flash drive and plug it in the otg before booting into recovery. Make sure you have the latest twrp too (2.6.0.0). The n you can install from external SD.
Again though, I think you can install from a side load method or adb.

ADB Sideload and ADB Push should both work with that recovery. I have issues with my Asus Windows 8 machine, even on the Ubuntu side, but the old faithful wife keeps a Gateway POS around with Windows 7 on it. I've used both commands successfully in Windows 7 every time.

Bulletproof-m7-3.2 = kernel, just to clarify.

My bro accidentally clicked on OTA upgrade. I have bootloader unlocked , rooted P765 with cwm 6.0.2. I searched this forum for solutions and got some.Unfortunately none worked for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2247371 - this method did not work . my phone also has some issues with USB i guess. Everytime i connect to pc , i get device not detected error. screes attached.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40423549&postcount=2 ----this did not work. same as above.
i also tried with exitrecovery.zip . It ran successfully from CWM but everytime i boot, phone still goes to CWM recovery mode.
exitrecovery has following code
busybox echo -ne "\066" | busybox dd bs=1 seek=4107 count=1 conv=notrunc of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8
I did trial and error with mmcblk0p till 1-20 with no success.
Here comes the saddest part...I also went to LG service centre. He also couldn't help.That guy told me motherboard is dead due to rooting.
I am sure that my p765 is very much alive.
I can go to Software upgrade mode on my phone, but my pc doesnt recognize it. I have latest LG drivers installed on my system.
NOw i think only way out of this could be a script to flash from CWM. Please help me!!.
I tried flashing other roms like Superlumina,Avatar. Also tried Ubuntu touch with no success. Still goes to CWM.
I am on JB India V20A.
Thanks in advance.

Turn off the phone and remove the battery. Download THIS and exctract it to C:/. Open device manager in windows (Rigt click on Computer > Manage > Device manager) and connect your phone without the battery to pc via USB cable.

The following will work with all OTA boot loops to recovery. The guide is for p765 but it will work with all variants. If you flashed a custom ROM trying to fix the problem, please restore your stock rom backup. Also, if you still have artas182x locked bootloader recovery (or you removed any system apps), the update will fail, but you will be of the loop
what kdz are you currently on? I made the zip but i need the extracted p765 recovery.img.
If you have the kdz please extract the recovery.img (look at my signature on how to extract it).
i could give you the p760 20b recovery.img but I think it would be best to use the recovery.img of the current kdz you are on (to be on the safe side).
Note: if this doesn't work, you will need to use the unoffical fastboot. So you might want to get fastboot setup before trying this. Actually, you probably won't need fastboot, but you will need to restore your custom recovery.
Or use the longer method (takes more time, depends on your download speed), LG mobile support tool.
Once you get the stock recovery.img for your kdz, Open the p765_stock_recovery.zip and copy the 3-recovery.img into the zip file.
Note: Don't change the name of the recovery.img or it will not work
The recovery must be named 3-recovery.img
Place it on you sdcard and flash with cwm and reboot.
Or sideload into your phone with cwm and your computer
Code:
adb sideload p765_stock_recovery.zip

You have to flash the image files via fastboot, not through recovery.
no wonder i couldnt do it ..lol..havnt to used fast boot since the og evo days hope i can remember how..
Connect the phone to your pc and boot into bootloader, then go to fastboot.
you can test if your comp sees your phone by using
Code:
fastboot devices
Then, just open up cmd wherever your recovery image is stored (if on pc) by holding shift and right clicking. Then in the code below, replace recovery.img with the name of the recovery file you have.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

This is what I use http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
You can also download the version that's included in my Hboot guide (top link in my sig). It's not the entire SDK-just ADB & Fastboot. It's what I use. Just download and install. Once installed, highlight the file & hit Shift+right click on mouse, and you're ready to go.

Hey guys, so a friend of mine bricked his OnePlus2 to a state that his recovery wasn't working (wiped) and also his ROM was bootlooping. So I thought of this little trick to convert the latest full OTA zip file into fastboot flashable stock ROM files by converting the system.new.dat into system sparse image. Though my friend recovered his phone by flashing recovery and sideloading zip. I still think it would be a good idea to share here
Download: OOS 3.5.8
Requirements: must have fastboot
Must have fastboot drivers
Must have knowledge on how to use these commands
Note: this is not rooted or tampered with, with this system firmware you should be able to get OTAs
Happy unbricking!
Nice, might become useful
Thanks

No you can't flash images while you're locked, use fastboot oem unlock to unlock your bootloader
Thank you for your prompt response mate.
Please allow me to post my problem here with my phone.
* Hi everyone. Hope somebody can help me restore my phone again. I have successfully unlocked the bootloader of my phone but I cannot boot to Rom. Every time I power on the phone it will boot to CM stock recovery. Tried to flash TWRP recovery but unable to write image. Device is locked. Did some research and found out the reason behind this is I did not unable update to CM Recovery in Developer Options.
What is the best way to resolve this issue? I still have access to Fastboot and can do ADB commands but device is locked.
Will sideloading a stock CM OP2 Rom will fix the issue? I'm also concerned with the draining of the battery, if I cannot turn on because no more charge already.
I'm using Mac computer but I can borrow a windows laptop to fix this.
Any help will be highly appreciated..
Thank you very much in advance guys!
God bless!

Hi @MZO,
After downloading https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=169179, the file seemed corrupted, since it seems that the file could not be fully extracted.
Please kindly verify it.
Thanks.
I unlocked the device bootloader thanks to Narender, and tried to flash Lineage OS 18.1. After flashing the ROM and vendor zip files, I switched the current slot and restarted to fastboot mode. Then I flashed the vbmeta image. Then I rebooted to recovery to check the current slot. Slot was as expected, so I rebooted the system.
Then, TWRP gave me an alert saying "No OS is installed" before rebooting. I was unsure what was the reason for it because the ROM was just installed, so I rebooted the system.
After that, device went straight into fastboot mode after "Android One" screen. No matter which option I choose from there, it keeps restarting the bootloader. I tried using "fastboot reboot recovery" but that did not work either. Then I tried to change the active slot of the device using fastboot commands. That did not help either.
Now I'm stuck with a Nokia 7.2 that can only be turned off or start in fastboot mode. Is it bricked beyond saving? I just want to install TWRP in any of the slots and install any usable ROM. Any help is deeply appreciated.
Installed NFT and flashed the stock ROM using that. All good now. I still need to figure out how to install ROMs on A/B systems using TWRP.

I actually installed few ROMs after my previous reply. But none of them had working WiFi, which is a deal breaker. Went back to stock ROM.

Hey, thanks. But I thought it's not possible due how the signatures in security patches work. So I gave up. Maybe I misunderstood. Linking to Raghu's reply below.

No, wi-fi with twrp still doesn't work. But what I did was, I extracted the boot image of the ROM I was using, flashed twrp, flashed gapps and then flashed the boot file I extracted earlier. So, wi-fi does work in the end. But, you can't have twrp perpetually installed
Some tutorials I saw online used fastboot boot twrp.img
What this is supposed to do is boot into twrp temporarily and is gone after restart.
But, on this phone, instead of booting to recovery after the command, it boots to the OS. And when you restart the boot image is gone and you restart into the stock recovery. So, that method doesn't work

Yup, pretty much what I experienced too.
I haven't tried extracting boot image and flashing it manually. At this point to be honest, I'm reluctant to put my hands on it again without having a clear step-by-step guide about it.
I did write a step by step guide. But i'll leave it to you to decide if it is clear. Ok I realize I haven't linked the post.

Thanks Ujwal, appreciate it. I'll have a look.
