I've got a bricked LGP880 without an OS that boots up.
Although it is possible to access the bootmenu with ADB and software upgrade menu.
Is it possible to flash CMW recovery through ADB? and how?
I want to flash CM11 with it, because it isn't possible anymore to flash the stock rom on my phone because it doesn't see his imei number anymore
Thanks in advance.

Go to software upgrade mode. this video will show you how to go into download mode.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0Vw-ZTr3xY
and follow this tutorial to flash the stock rom. after you have the stock rom then you can flash the clockworkmod recovery.

I tried that but he stops at param 207, and doesn't go further
He won't flash any stock rom without an imei number(of course I have one but he doesn't see it). When I use the LG flashtool the log said: "IMEINOTACTIVE".
I don't know what to do now.
Perhaps it is possible to flash CWM trough ADB or something, and then flash a custom rom (CM11 by example).

I apologize for posting on a topic of another person, thanks for the touch.

unmount SD card and do adb sideload filename.zip
I gave it a try but without result (check image)
What can I do now?
Sideload was 100% complete but the phone won't install it.
I tried to install CMW recovery and CMW touch recovery.

I noticed The ROM you have is a .img file, try download a .zip file. you can't flash .img files using CWM only .zip files
Like Cyanogen mod 10 - Download this file http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/42666/cm-10.1.3-p880.zip
And adb push and try install it
Before you attempt to flash.Wipe data Wipe cache & dalvik cache twice.

I tried it as you said but again the aborted message(see image)
something else I can try?
I think ADB is the only way to get this phone alive (if he can install CMW Recovery). He won't flash any stock rom because he doesn't see his imei number anymore.

This is to unlock the bootloader
adb reboot oem-unlock
Press volume up button
remove the cable and battery
reinsert battery
reboot into recovery
Now flash CWM (You already have the touch CWMrecovery. replace the filename, recovery.img.)
adb push c:\recovery.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o remount, rw /system
cat /mnt/sdcard/recovery.img >/dev/block/mmcblk0p1
sync
adb reboot recovery
And install the ROM
Once you reboot into recovery mode, it should be in Clockworkmod recovery and, you can install the Cyanogenmod.zip

I tried to push the recovery.img file but it won't work (see picture).
My bootloader was already unlocked.
Of course I used ADB in recoverymode, on the second photo I turned into the S/W Upgrade mode for the state of the bootloader.
What can I try now?
Thanks!

ADB push didn't work. it failed to copy the file. because you typed the directory wrong, did you rename the file recovery.img,
in command prompt, type "cd c:\AndroidSDK\tools" replacing AndroidSDK\tools with wherever the directory your recovery.img is located. like here it is c:\users\eldin\desktop\android\rec***--- recovery.img
and then type adb push recovery.img /sdcard after you have kept the recovery.img in the folder you have specified.
or you can you try the same way you did adb sideload , but this time type /sdcard. at the end after the directory.
or even connect the sdcard to pc and copy it to the root directory, using a microsdcard reader.
after it copies successfully try the rest of the commands.
And if you want to use the upgrade mode you could try flashing firmware using the LG flash tool I told you about earlier.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723
check your device box before you download the firmware. make sure it's the right one. the imei not acitve error might be because you're trying to flash the wrong firmware. this video is not in english but you can follow it. use the thread to download the files.
Hello,
I tried it again but without result (I don't know if I did it right this time).
Your explanaition isn't very clear to me (I am not really good with ADB hihi).
Is it also possible with an external SD card? I got an SD adapter (and a SD card of course) but I don't know the commands.
I tried also to mount the internal SD but it won't work.
About the flash tool, I tried it many times but it isn't possible to flash the stock rom because if I want to flash the stock rom, it needs an IMEI number but the phone doesn't see it anymore.
I hope you can help me!

How to Flash LG Optimus 4X HD with a KDZ File
KDZ Files (Remember to flash a compatible device or you may have problems like IMEI error or even chance of bricking your phone) I'm only giving compatible ones.
V20A_00
V20B_00
If you don't have european LG optimus 4x HD p880 I suggest you check this link and find the correct KDZ file
http://www.lg-phones.org/official-lg-optimus-4x-hd-firmware-download.html
1.Download these 3 apps: Download
2.Install B2CTools
3.Extract the KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.zip
4.Install msxml.msi (located \KDZ)
5.Extract WindowsEnabler.zip to the same folder as KDZ (ex.: KDZ\WindowsEnabler)
6.Run LGMobile update (must be on your desktop) and install the USB drivers
7.Reboot your LG Optimus 4X HD in SW Upgrade mode (remove the battery, hold vol down while inserting usb cable connected to your pc)
8.Open the Windows “Device Manager” > Modems > disable the LGE Mobile USB Modem (Windows + R Type in "devmgmt.msc" and hit enter)
9.Run as administrator KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
10.Run as administrator Windows Enabler.exe
11.After you run the app, an icon will appear on your tray, single-click on the icon until the “ON” text appears over the icon
12.Click the folder yellow folder icon next to ‘KDZ file’ and choose the .kdz file you downloaded earlier.
13.Connect your phone in S/W download mode to your PC. Let Windows install all the necessary drivers.
14.Select Type : 3GQCT. Select PhoneMode : CS_Emergency
15.Click on “Launch Software Update” and don’t click on anything else
16.Your LG phone will restart at 90% but don’t unplug it for now. Let it boot completely and wait till KDZ Updater reaches 100%.
Some LG models just shut down at 90%. You need to power on them manually without unplugging the USB cable
17.WAIT until your phone completely finishes and unplug the cable.
Don’t care about the errorlog, it’s normal. If KDZ Updater is returning a “KDZ extract error”, you probably need to re-download the KDZ file.
If you got only bootloop after flash .kdz, just do a hard reset: press and hold [vol -] and [power] until you got the “android recovery figure” and wait until they reboot again.

Hmm..
I couldn't try the flashable zip because the recoverymode hasn't got the update mode, only in combination with ADB so I couldn't try that.
I also tried the second option with the kdz update but he is stuck at param 207 (see image).
I waited more than 20 minutes but he won't do nothing at all.
LG makes it not easy to flash
I hope there's something else I can try
did you disable the LG modem in device manager? try remove the battery then re-insert it before disable LGE Modem and start flashing.
Here's another flashing tool to flash kdz files http://www.mediafire.com/download/fwrcd3pdj0svjtb/LG_Flash_Tool_2014.zip use CSE flash or you might get stuck in bootloop.
and try flashing the update.zip like you tried to flash cyanogenmod befoere using adb.
telephone alive!
Thanks everyone for helping me!
I stopped trying, because nothing worked.
I sent the telephone to the repair service and now my phone is alive!
Thank God I had warranty of 2 years on the phone.
They replaced some stuff in the phone (as the PCB assembly main refurb).
It wasn't a software problem, but a hardware problem.

My XPS is ROOTED w/o unlocking bootloader.
I follow the following instruction to install CWM on my XPS.
However, I got stuck when typing the cmd comment.
It kept telling me the device is not rooted, but Im certain on the fact that
my XPS is rooted since I have superuser, RE, Titanium backup.
PS: I am using Generic CH (1257-3740) XPERIA S LT26i ROM (6.1.A.0.452)
How to Install Doomlord’s ClockworkMod Recovery on Xperia S
Download the Doomlord CWM Recovery image (download link here) and the Wi Fi Module for Doom Kernel (download link here) and place the same to the computer.
Go and rename the “S-DooMKernel-v01_kernel.elf” file into “kernel.elf”.
Copy the file renamed on the same folder with ADB / fastboot.
Take your phone and its USB cord and by using both connect it with the computer.
Copy-paste the “S-DooMKernel-v01-Modules.zip” file from the PC to the Xperia S SD card.
Disconnect the smartphone from the computer.
Reboot it by entering in fastboot; press the Volume Up button while connecting the phone with the PC.
On the computer open command prompt (Start -> run -> cmd) and enter the command: fastboot flash boot kernel.elf. If this isn’t working try with: fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot kernel.elf.
The handset should reboot.
When you see the light turn blue hold the Voluem Up button. The Xperia S will enter in recovery mode.
In the recovery menu select “install zip from sd card” and pick the file copied there on step 3.
The installation procedure should begin. Don’t press anything as the process might take up to 10 minutes to complete.
In the end, from the recovery mode menu select “reboot system now” and you are done.
There you have it; that was the easiest and fastest way in which you can learn how to install Doomlord’s ClockworkMod Recovery on your Xperia S smartphone. Do tell us if there were problems on your way, of if you had issues in understanding one of my directions. Now you can go and update your Xperia S with the lasts ROMs available. Take a look and see if the Cyanogen Mod 9 Ice Cream Sandwich ROM is what you are looking for.
Waiting for someone else to confirm this method. You should post it on General or maybe Dev section, to attract more attention.

Ok... This is my 4th android phone.. And I love this phone... And only had it for a week.... and just now got it bricked.... here's what happen... Today I tried to flash a sense 4.1 rom, but im so new at this, and I'm half way done, and I went in a rush because I was nervous, and I accidentally press "install and keep data" and that was my mistake. I factory reset it b4 so I tried to flash it... So I thought it wouldn't be a problem. So I waited till the phone finish flashing. And when I rebooted the phone.... Nothing happened, just stuck on the white screen.... vibrating and etc... And I tried to restore all my data in clockworkmod recovery like I never even tried flashed it.. and it kept saying "won't mount sd card" and I tried to clear my cache/dalvik-cache, and like it still wont fix the issue. I even tried to restore wat I backup b4 I tried to flash it... and It was gone!!! Even my windows 8 laptop won't even detect my resound nor my sd card(unless its on a different android). But How can I fix my Rezound?!? plzzzz How can I fix this soft bricked issue? pllzzzzzzz help!!!
Im assuming you already have adb installed
Download this file
http://www.mediafire.com/download/oa2sjlvrecx0wdn/recovery-ra-vigor-3.16-gnm.img.zip
Extract the recovery img
Put it in the adb folder
Load into fastboot
Open up the terminal
Put "cd" then hit space
Drag and drop the adb folder into the terminal window then hit enter
Now use this command to flash that recovery "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (without the quotation marks)
Now go into recovery Find "format data system cache ect."
Go to format all to ext3 once that is done hit return
Flash your prefered rom from the flash menu and all that
Once you are done return to the main menu and go to "developer menu"
Then reboot to bootloader
Now go into your rom that you downloaded on your pc and find the rom now open it and get the boot.img
Copy the boot.img file to your adb folder
Open up terminal again and this time use the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" in terminal its going to say sending then writing usually takes a couple of seconds
now just go to the reboot option and your rom should work
Now remember that since you are s on you need to get the boot.img file from EVERY rom you install and flash it thru the terminal in order to get your rom working

If you are S-ON, you are likely not bricked, it's almost impossible to completely brick when you are S-ON.
Why do people keep telling occasional flashers that are S-ON to do this?!?!? It is the hard way, also don't use Amon Ra, is it outdated and known to cause issues with current ROMs, use TWRP or CWM recovery!!! Also, verify your ROM is specifically for the HTC Rezound, check the Developer threads here and make sure it is stable and widely used unless you really know what you are doing.
Although xkjonathanxk is on the right track, he is making more complicated than it needs to be...
- Download the first link in the first post of this thread and place it on the root of your SD card: [Tool] - 3/24 - CleanWIPE 1.0 - Wipe 5 or 10x before ROM install! - 1heffer Edition! (CleanWIPE formats all the necessary partitions for you, and prepares the phone for a new ROM)
- Download TWRP or CWM Rececovery (one of the first two links in post 1) and extract the recovery*.img and place it in the adb folder that contains fastboot.
- Download a tested and verified ROM of choice and place it on the root of your SD card
- Now, reboot into fastboot, remove battery and hold down Power and Vol Dn, once the menu comes up select Fastboot and press power, connect phone to PC
- In ADB enter the command "fastboot devices", if it shows a device continue, if not report back please
- Now enter the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" and TWRP (or CWM) should open on the device in a few seconds (replace recovery.img with whatever the name of the xxxx.img file is from TWRP or CWM archive)
- Install the CleanWIPE zip from above
- Install ROM zip image
- Reboot and enjoy the goodness
Remember to give the ROM some time to settle down on the first boot, and that the first boot can take a long time, like a painfully wrong "WTF did I do to ruin my device!" long time, but give it a solid 10 minutes before doing anything else.

For the things you need to do, its not much different than Windows. Download and install adb, copy images to same places, and the commands are pretty much the same. If you can dualboot you obviously have some knowledge of such things.
If this is all do difficult, just grab a thumb drive, put mini-adb, recovery.img, and your ROM on it and go to a buddies computer with Win7 for 20 minutes and get it done that way.
I know this seems like a huge, potentially fatal problem, but it is minor...
Another thought I had... Download TWRP, go into CWM recovery and copy the TWRP file and ROM to the sd card, and FLASH TWRP recovery ZIP with CWM recovery, reboot into recovery and you will then be on TWRP and you can use TWRP's HTC Dumlock to flash the ROM and the boot.img without a PC at all... In theory, it should work.

You need to get the proper drivers installed to sideload a new rom or push it to internal sd
My best advice would be to drop the mac for linux or even windows, but that's a different story...

If you don't have access to a windows PC, you'll probably have to do it similar to this way - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26435416 (Download the RUU for your device).

except it doesnt have mac on there and it says to turn fastboot off in settings using the os and i cant. anything else?
Can't you copy/paste the stock rom into the device and boot it up to install? In my huawei I think I can do it with the special "pink screen" (turning on my phone while pressing both volume up and down ). If I have a "dload" folder in the root directory with the stock rom inside, when booting to pink screen it will automatically start the installation..

Just find the right RUU for your device and execute it (Let it extract the files and go to your temp folder / Don't close the application).
For example if you are using Win7/Win8:
Go to C:\Users\{your username}\AppData\Local\Temp\
You will see some folder(s) with a name like this or similar with an other folder inside it with similar name (path example):
C:\Users\{your username}\AppData\Local\Temp\{487C5E56-F40F-49D7-A913-522D1A257374}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B}
If you find the right one you will be able to find a file with name rom.zip.
just copy that to the root of your sdcard and rename it to {your MID namber / the 4 first characters}IMG.zip
For example for Incredible S should be PG32IMG.zip
The zip name with your MID number could be PL83IMG.zip (Probably for HTC One)
***Important***
If you want to find your MID number to rename the zip you should get your phone into hboot (by pressing Vol- and power button) and to enable fastboot mode (connect the usb cable to your computer).
Then give the command:
fastboot getvar mid ----> To get your Model ID number
fastboot getvar cid ----> To get your CID number (it could help you to find the right RUU for your device / If you have S-OFF and SuperCID you can Install any RUU but you should be carefull - If you choose some wrong RUU and you flash it you could brick your device as well)
***Attention***
Make sure you haven't sdcard into your phone if you have your XXXXIMG.zip inside because you won't be able to use fastboot option.
As long as you have the right zip with the right name in your sdcard reboot your phone into bootloader (while you have sdcard inside).It will start to scan your sdcard.If the zip has the right name your hboot will find the XXXXIMG.zip and it will tell you to update.Press VOL+ button to start the proccess (VOL- to abort).Wait until proccess is done.May it take a while...
(Don't put off your battery until the process is done and make sure it is at least 30% charged to proceed.)
If you need any help further we are here.
The problem with the above is the htc one does not have a removeable sd and the op's computer isn't recogonizing his phone, the first step is to get the phone and pc to communicate, after this, being the recovery is functional, just a full wipe and install of a proper rom via recovery will suffice, no need to flash an ruu or pcxxximg.zip
Just needs to load a rom to internal sd
Sent from my SGH-T699 using Tapatalk 2
Im glad I have an external sdcard.. When I got it was just with the thinking "I can expand storage", but apparently it has this great advantages as well.
In the HTC maybe you can boot into a special mode that makes the computer recognize the internal partitions and mount them as external drives..
Good luck.
You could use fastboot commands to restore official rom to your device without the need of sdcard.You just need to extract the rom.zip from RUU.exe.
Here is a guide how to extract an RUU on linux and mac:
OpenRUU for Linux & Mac - NEW! Extract rom.zip from any RUU!
**You need wine to run windows executable files (.exe) under linux and mac OS.**
If you have the rom.zip you can flash it using fastboot commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU ---> Get your phone into RUU mode.
fastboot flash zip rom.zip ---> Flash the rom.zip you extracted before.
fastboot reboot ---> Run this command when the flashing is finished.
The proccess should has been done now!
You could see this guide to if you like:
[GUIDE] Set up ADB and Fastboot on a Mac easily (With Screenshots!)
Yes using fastboot is helpful, but in this case again, the op needs to get his phone and pc to communicate first before doing anything. And applying an ruu is overkill,
Get phone to connect to pc
Load proper rom on phone internal sd
Wipe clean through recovery
Flash rom (and gapps if needed)
Reboot
Profit

My HTC Rezound is stuck on the HTC white screen. The bootloader is unlocked, but i wasn't able to finish the rooting process before I got this white screen. Can someone walk me through what I need to do? I can get to the HBOOT menu, but not sure what I need to do from here. Other threads said I need to re-lock the bootloader if I'm still in S-ON...but not entirely sure. Thanks.
How did you try to root?
You probably dont have a boot.img anymore... I would flash a ROM and its boot.img

I used a walk through on the unlockr website to root the rezound. I got to the part where you unlock the bootloader but then I gave up for the night and decided to do the rest the next day....but never got a chance...
Would you be able to explain how to flash a ROM and its boot.img? I'm sort of an amateur here..haha...I can get the phone into HBOOT and then get it into recovery mode...but not sure what to do from here....Thanks for trying to help, much appreciated!
Ok, i will backup... Download recovery and flash first, then use its file browser to see if you still have a ROM. Most likely you will have to flash a ROM, and when S-ON requires you to extract the boot.img and flash it manually.

CWM or TWRP are custom recovery applications that allow you to flash ROM image zip files. You will need to select a ROM to flash as well. Place a copy of the recoveryXXX.img file in your fastboot directory. The next step will depend on the answer to my next question...
Did you have a certain custom ROM in mind or do you just want to be stock & rooted?

stock and rooted would be fine to me unless you have a better suggestion.... I'm very new at this...the only reason i undertook this endeavor is because my soft keys stopped working and most of those "home key" apps only work when you're rooted.
I'm sorry I'm so dumb at this...but do I install CWM to my phone or to my computer?

You can flash it to your phone, but it isn't necessary... if all you want is stock and rooted, know that I am back in front of a computer and not on limited to Tapatalk on my phone, I will walk you through it. I recommend TWRP though, I am familiar enough with CWM mod to do it on my own, but not to instruct someone (Do not type the quotation marks themselves unless I say otherwise)
1) Download the latest TWRP from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902381
2) Unzip the file and copy the recovery.img file from the ZIP to the same directory as fastboot/adb
3) Download the ROM image from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260154
4) Open the ZIP with 7Zip (or your favorite ZIP tool) and extract the file called boot.img and place it in the fastboot/adb directory as well (we may or may not need it, depends how this goes for you)
5) Place a copy of the ROM zip file on the root of your microSD card
6) Power up into Hboot (the bootloader) by pressing POWER+VOL DN until the screen comes up
7) Select and start FASTBOOT and connect the USB cable, there should now be a red bar over FASTBOOT USB
8) Open a command window in your fastboot directory
9) Type "fastboot devices" (without quotes) and press enter, the system should respond with your devices serial number, if it doesn't... STOP and report back here
10) Type "fastboot boot recovery.img" and wait for TWRP to start on the phone
11) Go to Wipes -> Advanced and select everything except the external SD and execute it
12) Go back to the top menu
13) Select Install and select the ROM image and flash, wait for it to let you know it's complete
14) Reboot and be patient... first boot on a new ROM can take a significant amount of time, give it a good 15 minutes.
Remember you do not have to flash ANY recovery image to your phone, this is only needed once S-OFF and returning to locked, you can always boot a recovery image via fastboot.
Enjoy

The easiest way would be to remove the microSD card and place it an external reader in the PC and then just copy and paste... the other way is to skip #5 , then after #10 (and before #11) use TWRP to mount the SD card by clicking MOUNT and then make sure Storage is set to "Micro SDcard" and click Mount USB Storage... the external SD card should show up on your PC as a regular removable USB drive, just copy it over that way and after it is complete press Home in the lower left corner and continue.

I skipped five because I don't have a miniSD external reader.
after I typed "fastboot devices" I think it showed the serial number (which is good i think)...it showed a series of letters and numbers and then fastboot. When i typed fastboot boot recovery recovery.img, i received cannot load recovery... any ideas?

1. Turn off your phone.
2. Boot your phone in Recovery Mode (Volume Up + Power Button).
3. Install the zip file in the following link. h ttp: // ww w.m ediafire. com/download/sh541l2u2e78vl6/CWM6.0.27.z ip (DELETE ALL SPACES )
4.Reboot into the custom recovery you have just installed.
5.Go to toggle signature verification and check if it is enabled or disabled. If it is enabled, you HAVE TO disable it.
6. Select ROM.zip from your phone memory and flash it.
7.If you do not have the rom on your phone(The same ROM of which you deleted the system folder), then mount the usb storage from recovery with your phone connected to the PC. Transfer files to the usb storage or phone storage, which ever is convenient.
8.Boot into Recovery and flash the ROM.
9.Reboot phone and WAIT.
Let me know if that works :good:

Mr.Jaswal, if he really had to go to the mobile care center, he wouldn't be participating the XDA Forums. People go to the mobile care center only when their phone is hard bricked, and i do not think that is the case here. I'm sure the problem can be solved.
Reflash stock ROM again.You will get your system back.

Did you disable signature verification? Do that and try. If that doesn't work either you can use fastboot to install recovery, which will 100%.
Follow these steps :
1.USB drivers for your phone must be installed on a computer.
2.Android SDK must be installed on your computer.
3.Your phone must be connected to your computer via USB.
4.The ADB and Fastboot drivers must be pasted into the folder where Android SDK is installed.
5.Navigate to the Android SDK folder,press shift and Right Click, select the Open Command Window here option.
6.Then type the following after your phone is recognized by cmd.In most cases it is.(Type this command to start fastboot : "adb reboot bootloader" and then "fastboot devices")
7.After that type the following : fastboot devices
And then : fastboot flash recovery FILE.ZIP
8.And you are done Open your custom recovery with the key combination used to open your stock recovery.
