Bricked G2 Mini - LG G2 Mini

Hi! I've managed to brick my device (d610ar) badly, i think
the device doesn't boot normally (message "Secure booting error! Cause: boot certification verify.", and i am stuck there), can't charge it with the wall charger, and the only thing that works is download mode; but flashing a kdz with LG FlashTool (the way i went back to stock a few times) says flashing and at 2% (or 3% sometimes) it says that doesn't find the device, that i have pull out the battery to reconnect my device again and when i do that it does the same thing on a loop, asking to do it again later..
the funny thing is that it appears on device manager on windows, on com port 11 for example, but the FlashTool doesn't recognize it..
so, i can't flash any kdz and doesn't boot.. i've read around here in xda to enter fastboot to fix it, but.. can this device enter fastboot? i couldn't do it, tried adb too and couldn't make the device visible..
i, before this happened, had multirom installed, rebooted to recovery and deleted secondary roms to install in primary rom cm12.1.. there started to happen strange things when rebooted normally to configure it..
after a while trying to boot found around here in xda too that i could enter twrp recovery via hardware keys to reinstall again, so got into it and installed a flashable zip to come back to stock KitKat directly, that have worked for me before..
after that rebooted and i can't do anything else than download mode..
i kinda figured that the problem must be that multirom injected the boot sector after installing the stock flashable zip, and when i did that restored the stock aboot and abootb (these, modified carefully, allowed us to unlock bootloader and flash recoveries, etc, etc.. ; by the way, many thanks to the devs that discovered it and made the guides!)..
now i have read the instructions for flash via fastboot the stock boot.img and so pass the security verification, but i can't enter it..
so, what do you think that could be the next step? or is it really hard bricked and i should forget about it? i'm really hoping to recover it but i don't know what else to do..
sorry for the bad english, not my primary language
thanks for reading and i am hoping to hear some suggestions!

He is not hard bricked you need to flash stock boot and reunlock bootloader if you have custom recovery still installed, but go first with the eazy way search xda about lg flash tool stuck at 2% there some guides to help you get kdz flashed

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! You made me realize why wasn't working..
Because of you, i started to search threads related with the "flashtool stuck at 2%" and one of the things to look at was a txt file to see what was the problem.. there i found out that the lg FlashTool recognized my device as LGD618..
That's when i realized that i must've messed up when i flashed a lollipop flashable zip for the D618(a while ago), "converting" my cellphone on that model.. so when i connected on download mode and put the LGD610 kdz the comparison of cellphone model and binary model didn't match..
Solution was to flash LGD618 kdz, boot up normally, install towelroot, install supersu, edit a line on build.prop
from persist.multisim.config=dsds to persist.multisim.config=none
rebooted and that's it.. everything works perfectly now! i won't be doing stuff to it for a while
probably will stay stock like that, because now i will be using an OnePlus One in a few days and the G2 mini will be used by my mother, i think..
Thanks again! You saved my device for being bricked forever

i glad i could helped you :good:

I tried installing kitkat having installed lollipop and did not work, also I tried installing lollipop and nothing. Well I think this update lollipop are adding some kind of lock to disallow downgrade or upgrade by KDZ. I try other methods, unlocking bootloader, and install a aboot.img, bricked my phone. I recommend that you do not attempt to unlock the bootloader and install any system image that is not official, or may end up with a dead device.

Flashed stock ROM but not booting up

Model:XT1521 Retasia(Indian)
So let's get on with the story
I own a moto e 2 4g variant. I unlocked the bootloader of the device,installed a custom recovery and flashed a custom ROM. Everything went well;I was trying a new ROM almost everyday(5.1.1 and 6.0.1) until one day when I decided to go back to stock ROM.I downloaded the official 6.0 stock ROM,installed it and started the device.The phone booted,went straight to recovery and showed erasing.The problem starts here.It showing eraseing and rebooted after some time and I thought that it's going to boot up into stock 6.0.But I was wrong.The phone booted and again did the same thing and this went on in a loop.So I decided to try it once more.This time I did two more things prior to installing the ROM;
Fastboot erase all
Fastboot erase system - w
Till then in bootloader it showed official in software status.But after those two erase commands it started showing modified.
Even then the result was the same I.e.showing erasing and rebooting.So I thought that I will go back to custom ROM for the time being.all went well,phone booted up but there was no signal.The phone was not accepting any Sims. I went to bootloader and immediately found out the cause.It was showing not found under baseband.So I seperately flashed a modem but to no luck.As of now I have tried all stock rims available(5.0.2,5.1.1,6.0) but the device is not booting up.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
This happened to me with CM13, the same thing happened with the baseband number, and I couldn't even enter in the recovery, so I had to manually flash the Stock ROM via adb. It happened to me again when I tried to root my phone even with the systemless root, the phone just doesn't boot up, I'd recommend you to flash the basebands found in the forums, if that doesn't fix it, you'll have to manually flash the stock rom via adb or you can use the easy tool, it's fairly simple if you follow the steps, I'll leave the links bellow.

Used the flashing tool.But in every mode of flashing,the bootloader flashing and boot.img flashing is showing some error.But rest all are flashing succesfully.Still in bootloader it is showing baseband not found.And when I boot the device,the bootloader screen comes up,followed by a black screen and the cycle repeats.Any help would be appreciated.
Edit:My moto e 2015 is a LTE RETASIA(Indian) model.In the baseband link you provided,XT1521 RETASIA version's baseband is not available.

I need help with my lenovo tab 2 a7-10f.

This friday I got my tablet(lenovo tab 2 a7-10f). Yesterday I decided to install better rom on it. I rooted my device and installed twrp recovery. Unfortunally I didn't quite realize the importance of making back up and the fact that you can't flash this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/rom-orionlp-v1-8-lenovo-tab-2-a7-10f-t3480918
on android 4.4. My device loops "lenovo powered by android" screen. I can boot it into TWRP recovery. I have been googling today for a whole day and I havent find any rom to flash it. I tried this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...-stock-lollipop-5-0-roms-lenovo-tab2-t3418835
and I think thing like this for a KiKat (through twrp, probably that's why it doesnt work) .I couldn't quite boot it into fastboot and I can't use sp flash propely or it just simply doesn't work for me. Please help me to find any rom to flash it from twrp, since I am too stupid to do anything different way.
In short it loops, I can boot it to twrp, I just want to unbrick it. The ultimate goal is to propely install this *first link*
Thanks in advance!

There is a way to flash a now rom with SP flash tool although you can't use sp flash tool propely.
You must open the lid of the tablet and unplugin the battery
(to unpluin the battery simply pull out this)
Then open your SP flash tool, load the scatter file of the rom, press download button, plugin the battery and your pc will start dowloading the rom normally.

[help] bricked my moto z

Hi experts!
Is there an available factory image of the latest firmware for griffin xt1650-03 for download? I unlocked my boot loader and tried to flash custom firmware now I am stuck in boot loop. My phone was nougat and updated via OTA last week before I decided to unlock boot loader. I tried loading the latest image I got from firmware.center but I am getting Downgrade version and verification failed when flashing stock partition and not loader. Please help
Note: I did this my wifi became unusable after my last OTA (mac 02:00:00:00) and thought using custom firmware would help
And I did not make a back up
Get it in fastboot mode, flash TWRP and root it. That might work.
I am in exactly the same position as OP, although I have successfully installed TWRP and have open bootloader from which I can boot into TWRP no probs. I didnt do a backup (will never again make this error!!)
The problem arises when I try to flash (any) files over to device I get the "Downgrade version and verification failed" like OP when flashing stock Telus rom (telus phone) or any other rom/files.
Rebooting brings me back to the moto unlocked bootloader page (horrible!) and the only way out is to get key combo or fastboot into bootloader/recovery etc.
Tried flashing multiple images as whole or bit by bit, always get the same bad validation message. Finding it hard to believe this 700dollar phone is a brick after literally following MotoS own 'unlock your bootloader' instructions. Never had issues like this on OPO, S6, S7, LG etc.
PC shows android device connected, nothing in the two empty folders that appear. TWRP confirms I have no OS installed and throws me back to bootloader.Wondering if locking bootloader again will allow me to install 'stock' ROM or at least recovery? I have reached my android knowledge limit and am not sure where to go from here, any help much appreciated!
OK. This happened to me. The way that I solved it was by flashing the RETUS NPL86.25.15 and then flashing the OTA 25.17-3-3 through twrp. Although I think I could've saved the headache if the original instructions included flashing the OEM.bin but anyways. That's what I did. Hope it helps.
Thanks. I did try flashing the oem.bin but got partition name error.
Can you link to the files you mention I think it's a kernel and then an OTA image? Thanks again in advance.
What I mean is that when I first started flashing the RETUS rom the instructions skipped that part so I ended up flashing most of the file system without something so it would never boot but it wouldn't loop it'd just hang. So basically you flash everything and then include the OEM.bin after you do the system chunks

[HELP] Alcatel Pixi 4-6 (8050e) brick

HELP!!
TLDR:
I bricked pixi 4-6 8050e by flashing it with SPFT [format all + download] option. Can't go into fastboot, but I can still flash using SPFT). Help please!
At first I was just trying to get root. So I needed to unlock BL the flash recovery (twrp).
But recovery image was wrong so I was stuck at bootloop. I found that there is another working recovery (ctr).
I flashed again, but I'm still stuck at bootloop! At this point all I want is to get the device working, root be damned!
So I tried to find a stock ROM and extract the recovery.img from it. I flashed the stock ROM with SPFT, but I'm still on bootloop.
At this point I'm sweating a lot, but I can still access fastboot.
Then I tried to flash the WHOLE stock ROM by using SPFT [download] option.
After that, I was still stuck at bootloop. Worse, the boot animation for alcatel is now ****ed up, it is not showing properly!
I don't know what to do, I downloaded another stock rom, only to find out that it has the exact same files by using hash checker.
I flashed it 1st with [Download] option but nothing changed.
So I flashed again using [Format All + Download] option on SPFT. This is where I really ****ed up. I now can't even access fastboot! But I can still flash using SPFT.
I downloaded final ROM from xda, but again, it has the same exact files! I again tried to flash it, but nothing still works, cannot even go to fastboot.
I even downloaded Alcatel's mobile upgrade s program to fix, but it says "Read terminal information failed". I'm guessing that it the downloaded preloaded.img from the supposedly stock rom is wrong.
I don't know what to do next.
Please help! If any of you have a stock image that is not the same with kirito9's (link), please I NEEED IT!

Need help, bricked my ASUS Zenfone Live L1

Just a little disclaimer: I am an ABSOLUTE NOOB at this stuff and I just followed tutorials and guides; no experience whatsoever and I badly need your help
It all started when I wanted to root my phone. So I decided to install a custom recovery on the phone first(CWM to be exact). I flashed the recovery.img file and soft bricked my phone. I managed to fix it easily just by erasing recovery by using adb. Afterwards, recovery was accessible again. Since I couldn't do it that way, I tried downloading the phone's latest firmware from ASUS' website and pulled the boot.img out of it and patched it with Magisk. Flashed it and boom, bricked my phone. I tried fixing it the same way I did with the recovery.img but it didn't work. I even tried erasing it and flashing the original boot.img file I pulled out of the firmware file I got from ASUS' website, but it wouldn't work; it would boot up, show the ASUS logo, then shut off. Please, tell me there's a way through this, and btw the phone's bootloader was unlocked for sure; I used ASUS bootloader unlocker from the website. I have all firmware files already downloaded in case I need 'em.
UPDATE: I flashed a boot.img form an older firmware file from the same website and it kinda worked. It boots now and it seems to be stuck on the Zenfone logo now :/
Hey. I remember that you can boot into adb mode and then do
adb sideload "yourfirmware.zip"
The instruction holds true for earlier zenfones. See if it works here.
I have the same phone, but is dead, no recovery, no fastboot mode, no screen.
What can i do?. My pc just detect QDloader driver help plz.
