If you killed your LG L70, and can no longer access the recovery menu, follow these steps.
First do the Download LG Laf Recovery multitool on your computer, and extract to any folder.
Turn off your device (advise that the clearance was connected via USB, but cases of infinite loop will not have as then is dispensable).
Plug in fastboot mode (when off connect USB and press vol +) will appear on a black screen as the image below:

Ready, your bricked device enter into recovery mode. With this you can install another rom normally or return to the previous rom if you made a backup.
Obs .: Do this only when your phone is not going into recovery mode by typing the command window "fastboot reboot recovery"
The next time you want to access the recovery, you can use the above command. You can also use the adb devices.

How to get LG Optimus V out of Fastboot Mode from a Factory Reset

Have a LG Optimus V version 2.2.1 that i did a factory reset on with the stock rom that was working at the time. The phone had to go back to Virgin Mobile for a swap as it has CyanogenMod on it. I didn't want Virgin to know i messed with there phone/get charged, etc.
After rebooting from a factory reset, the screen looked like this, NEVER DO A FACTORY RESET.

This blue screen is called fast boot mode, it basically will say
Code:
fastboot mode started
gpio_i2c: invalid khz: 0
bl: i2c write error
udc_start()
In this state, there is no access to ClockworkMod Recovery or the mod itself. The phone is a dead stick.
After spending hours researching this, I found a resolve.
If your running Windows XP, follow this guide to fix it
If your running Windows 7:
Install the LG VM670 Drivers here. File is named LG VZW United WHQL v2.5.2.exe
Once the Fastboot Drivers Installed. Continue with all the commands from the above link under 2) Usage
Open Cmd and type or copy and paste these commands ONE BY ONE with the USB cable plugged in.
Code:
cd C:\Fastboot\android-sdk-windows\tools
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
Now we need to flash recovery via Fastboot. Type or copy and paste this command on Cmd:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery C:\Fastboot\Recovery\recovery-RA-optm-2.2.1-GNM.img
Then type this on Cmd to reboot to recovery:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Now your phone will reboot to recovery. All you have to do now is to install a rom and your phone will be back to normal.
Hope this helps.

Please fix half brick of my devices

Dear all,
I've used device name EBEN T4 (e人e本 T4 - from china). I rooted device and deleted/modified system. So, now it can not boot, it stuck at manufacter logo. I wiped data/factory reset or wipe cache but not success. So it need to be reflashed device roms.
Device allowed me to enter recovery mode and select update rom from zip file on SDCard (internal memory). I saved zip file on SDCard. BUT SDcard have so many folders and files in root folder, and zip file names "update.zip" - it means that it is on near last of list, and recovery limited number of line to view, so i could not browse to update file.

Please suggest me how to fix that by anyway.
P/S: I found that Back + Power will bring me to fastboot interface?
Need help so much
That's why you should backup your system before rooting etc. Do you have a stock image of your device?

I found that my device could enter fastboot mode by press back + power button.
When connect usb, screen show:
[fastboot mode]
fastboot is in init......
fastboot transfer buffer: 0x0000000
flash <1 word i cant recoginze> is MMC: 1
USB Mini b cable Connected!
fastboot initialized
USB_SUSPEND
USB_RESET
USB_RESET
Windows device Manager (on WIndows 7 32bit) shows that device connect (ADB), i'm used to use many ADB universal driver (google, ClockworkMod). When i used "fastboot devices" command, it reponsed nothing.
Could i connect to fastboot to update file update.zip to device? If ok, how i connect?
Fastboot will give you nothing, mate. Try to set up the ADB and use adb sideload <path/to/zip> without "<>" or delete folders in recovery by going to adb shell and changing the dir by cd command and removing them by rm -r foldername.
Good luck.

Error: Cannot load twrp-2.8.7.1-h901.img

I have been trying to Root my LG-V10 by T-Mobile recently, and it's being a pain in the rear.
So here is what I've tried:
Re-downloading TWRP
Renaming TWRP
Copy and pasting code
None of this worked.
Also; I don't want to end up bricking my phone.
Also, when I try to go into fastboot mode the custom way, (Power + Down) it will restart my phone over and over until I stop holding the two down.

This kind of looks like the "klickit" tool. Is that what you are using?
Make sure you have USB Debugging selected in developer options, and make sure you plug the device into the computer while the OS is booted. When you do that, make sure you are using the cable that came with the device... And make sure you check the option to always allow that particular PC to be trusted.
After that..
Honestly, if your device is already unlocked... Make this easy on yourself...
Remove the install.bat from the directory in your folder there...
Change the twrp files to a simple name...
Try "twrp3000.img" and "twrp2871.img"
Boot the phone into download mode by holding the power down button and plugging your USB cable into the phone while it is powered off...
Open your folder in windows there... And hold shift, then right click somewhere in the folder, select "open command prompt here" or something like that whatever it says...
Type the following command, without quotes, and hitting enter after each line:
"fastboot flash recovery twrp2871.img"
"fastboot boot twrp2871.img"
Your phone should then boot into recovery.
Also, make sure you don't try to boot the device before flashing your root.zip file, because you might have to do all of these steps again.
I will try that when I get home, however I did not also provide these things:
I enabled OEM
I enabled debugging
I put the setting to "always allow" when I did the abd/adb (forgot which one) devices.
Also try phone off hold volume down, connect usb cable to phone which is already connected to the comp. That should boot you straight into fastboot mode.
Maybe also try typing the first 3 letters of the twrp image file, then hit Tab... If it auto-completes the name of the file, then you know you and the file are in the right directory lol.

HTC One X - Always opens up bootloader - Powerbutton doesn't select

So I've been researching this all day.. A friend gave me his phone and asked me to fix it. I charged it, and tried to boot it up, but all I'm seeing is the bootloader. I've tried to enter Fastboot, Recovery mode and Factory Reset, but all it does when I try to select an option with the power-button is go to the "next item". Pressing the volume up button also takes it to the "next item". Pressing the volume down button does nothing, which is weird, because that's the button that's supposed to go to the "next item".
Now, I've tried installing HTC sync manager on my computer in the hopes of maybe being able to do something, but whenever I try to install it, it gives me this error (sorry for the Swedish, it's just saying that an error occured during the installation of something, device component? That last word might be translated wrong):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is what the bootloader looks like:
I've tried a few ADB commands, to no avail. Running
Code:
adb devices
returns an empty list. The same thing applies to
Code:
fastboot devices
Trying to run any other fastboot command just says "< waiting for device >"
I'm not able to boot up the Android OS, or anything else for that matter. Trying to turn the phone off boots it up into the bootloader again, forcing me to leave it plugged in so that it doesn't run out of battery.
The drivers appear to be installed just fine on my computer, even though I can't seem to install HTC Sync Manager:
I'm running out of ideas, and I'm not sure what to Google for anymore. I'm not sure what's been previously done to this phone. Is it possible to just, completely reset it through a computer, using a USB cable, even though I'm having difficulties doing the things mentioned above? If yes, how? What to Google for?
Thanks,

I lost the TWRP Recovery!!

Guys, I installed the OS lineage on my Sony Z2 D6543. Perfect, except that in this process I lost the recovery, I used TWRP, now I have the 7.1 Nougat android, which is a good one. But I can not access recovery anymore. And do not even root on my device. Do you have any solutions for my problem? If so, I wanted to kindly pass the step by step, because I'm still kind of "Noob" in these processes. Thank you very much in advance!
First thing, reboot and login to recovery with pressing volume up button (not volume down).
If the above mentioned step didn't work for you then you can go further a flash a recovery image using "Minimal ADB Fastboot".
1- Make sure you have installed Sony Xperia Z2 D6503 PC drivers in order for your device to be recognized as an ADB device.
2- Install "Minimal ADB Fastboot" and make sure you make a desktop shortcut to make things easier.
3- Download a TWRP image from the official website.
4- Rename the image to "recovery", right click on the minimal ADB shortcut and open file location then move the image you've renamed to the folder.
5- On your device, go to settings/ about phone / click build number 7 times /step back, open developer options and enable USB debugging.
6- Open "cmd" and type the following command :
adb devices (to make sure your device is recognized)
7- Turn off your device and remove USB cable.
8- Press the power button with volume up simultaneously. (Blue LED indicate you're in Fastboot mode)
9- Type the following command :
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
10- Power off and see if your device boots to recovery with either volume up or down.
Thank you for your attention and willingness to help. But in my case did not work, when I press the power button and volume + it turns on the blue led, but does not enter fastboot, it is only restarting. Until I release the key and it reboots and enters the system normally. I'm sending some prints of the fastboot program. If there's anything else I can do, thank you in advance!
