I have D620 and i have used download mode several times to recover my android but now it isn't working

All i could try was:
1. When I press volume down + power, release down + power it opens "Factory data reset" click yes > confirm > Then it says endless "Foctory reset processing" > It looks like its freezed again..
2. Download mode: Hold vulume up > plug in the cable between phone and pc > hold volume up 2 minutes > it says (endless)
------------------------------
DOWNLOAD MODE
------------------------------
Loading........
Press the volume up key until you see the download screen...
> it looks like its freezed AGAIN
3. Hold all the keys and the screen turns off and on every 6 seconds (screen turns on > 6 secs > screen off > screen on etc )
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Is there any way to come in the recovery like this: http://www.android.gs/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/WP_20140324_004-2-593x340.jpg

Hi,
dont panic, I went thru exactly the same process right up till the TWRP and wipe. All you need to do is get hold of the stock rooted rom zip from here:
Then copy it onto your sdcard, for which you can connect to the computer using Advanced menu of the TWRP, and load the sdcard, which will connect as USB storage to PC.
Then once file is on sd card, just go back to main TWRP meny and select install option, then select the zip file you just copied.
Let TWRP do its stuff, then do a factory reset / then go into reboot system.
Wish you all the best. Once the ROM has installed, now you can search for the latest TWRP, install it then go on to latest kit kat roms in exactly the same way.
milind
hope he follows up with a thank you.

Also I have downloaded this yesterday ..

Get into bootloader by pressing volume up + power key simultaneously. Then press volume down key twice only. Next press power key once.

Hii,
Finally I reached on TWRP. Can I copy the Stock ROM Zip file in Memory Card and then install memory card on phone. And from Install in TWRP I can go the SD Card location and install it from there? Possible ?
Actually there was no battery on phone that is why the phone was not booting up to TWRP mode. Now I'm in TWRP and downloading Stock ROM. Hope it get fixed soon.
Many Thanks and Regards

That file is stock firmware inside the zip is a .tot file that can be renamed to .bin and used with lgnpst to bring the phone back to stock. You would need to be able to get into download mode
again. If you do use the g33k3r file you would need to root again then use Freegee app from play store to unlock bootloader and install recovery.

Hi,
Now I'm downloading ...
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg/att/firmware/LGE970AT-00-V10o-ATT-US-SEP-29-2012-0.zip
I guess this is original ATT LG E970 Firmware. I will copy it into my external Memory Card and then will insert into phone. After that using TWRP I'll be going to use this Zip file and after that factory reset. Am I correct ? Do I need to follow different steps ?
Let me know. Moreover do I need to unlock Phone again? When I received it was already in Unlocked State. So installing the above link firmware will lock it again? Or should I proceed with the link I posted earlier, I mean this ..
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/g33k3r/LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013.zip
And Rename File to .bin instead of .tot and Make ZIP it again ?
Please let me know.
PS ; I'm still Downloading The firmware from Ist link.

make sure to download the first file too.... to get to download mode just use twrp's reboot menu... from what i remember it has a reboot to bootloader. From there you can use the volume keys to select Download mode and push the power button to go into it...

Yes, turn your phone off and connect it to pc by pressing volume down. This will activate flashmode.
Shut off your phone by pressing Power button + Vol UP button. Switch it on again and try to see if you can boot the phone successfully.
What is "cmd"?

You must first switch it off by pressing POWER BUTTOn + VOLUME UP until you hear 3 vibrations. This will switch off the phone if it is stuck in bootloop or not responding.
after that, tell me what guide did you use to root your phone (give me the link)

the one that made me failed to root was, it failed to load the 2nd file, it said "couldn't load system-rooted.img", and it failed.
also i've tried to enter the recovery mode, but i couldn't, coz ofcourse it needs power to run, but every time i charge my phone it automatically go to the boot animation and stuck

I don't know at which step you got stuck but if you want to access recovery you can try switching it off (POWER BUTTON + VOL UP BUTTOM) and then, turn it on and when you see yellow light, keep pressing the VOL UP button.
However, don't follow that guide.
Follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/summary-tutorial-root-sony-xperia-z5-t3360515.
Just exclude step 6 and to backup TA partition just click on tabackup.bat (on Windows).

Use lg bridge to reset your phone. Not sure if it will relock your bootloader. Anyways you can install twrp again after a reset.
LG Bridge does not see phone. It only boots in recovery

If you still have TWRP installed, here are the instructions for booting to recovery via hardware buttos, aka "button dance". The hardware "button dance" takes good eye/hand coordimation...
1. Make sure phone is completely powered down.
2. Press and hold the Volume down button and the Power button.
3. When the LG logo is displayed release the Power button only then immediately press and hold the Power button again.
4. Release both buttons when the Factory Hard Reset screen displays.
5. Press the power button three times to say yes three different times, like it says. Even though it says it will delete everything, it won't.
6. After a "factory reset processing" appears, you should get the TWRP flash screen.

Seems like the phone won't completely shut off. Keeps rebooting everytime. I guess I'll have to try lgup again. Do know why I'm getting an error message from LGup?

That's just the bootloader unlock warning. Ignore that.
You'll see that even booting into TWRP.
Keep holding the buttons like the instructions say.

Try enter eRecovery - turn off, conect to PC, press and hold Power & Vol Up. In eRecovery select "Download latest etc etc).
(You need Wi-Fi).

Game over,imo. No fastboot, no eRecovery, no dload method... Try testpoint methode with board software, DC-phoenix or service center.
adb is working maybe it will help :/
