Hello, I saw that the LG F60 had an update released. So I went along and installed it. After it finished installing it rebooted and it went straight to my twrp (TeamWin) and it started to flash a file. I have no idea what that file was, but after it flashed the file it rebooted back into twrp. After that happened I tried rebooting but it just kept taking me to the damn twrp.
Any way I can fix this?
Thank you!
Mixing official updates with custom mods never goes well, especially on LGs.
In TWRP, in the Advanced section use the terminal to enter:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
then hit enter
type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc
then hit enter and reboot.
If it still fails to boot, then boot to recovery and perform a factory data reset. If it still doesn't boot after that, you will need to flash a rom or go back to stock with the kdz and LG FlashTool.

This Worked, I was stuck with this thing for 2 days now.
Edit- So it worked but now it says my service is disabled...Any way that can be fixed
Thank you!
You're welcome. I would see if I can find the kdz for your variant and reload the whole firmware.

Btw, will flashing a custom rom help?
It should, if it is a rom that is compatible with your phone.

Hello again, So after a while of having the cm 12.1 rom installed it was starting to lag my phone a lot to the point to where i had to pull the battery out because it would lag the phone so much it would freeze.
So i got tired of it and went back to the stock rom but now i have no service even though my sim card an everything else is fine, also i need to know how to remove my custom recovery (TeamWin) so i can update my phone and not have to go through the stupid recovery brick thing again.
Thank you for reading this!
You might have installed the stock rom for the wrong variant of the F60 as there are many. You'll either need to flash the radio compatible with the stock rom update you have through TWRP or install the whole kdz file via PC and LG Flashtool to resolve your issue.
http://lg-phone-firmware.com/firmware-LG+F60-Tutti-119.html
Lol, i meant to say this happened because of what you told me to do before to unbrick my phone. After i did that emulator thing it took my service away, but for some reason when i installed the Cyanogen Mod 12.1 rom it gave me back my service but now that i went back it still shows no service from before.
And no i did not install the wrong variant because I just know :/.

And what do you mean by "You'll either need to flash the radio compatible with the stock rom update you have through TWRP"?
If you're certain you flashed the right rom, then don't worry about the radio, you'll just want to install the kdz.

Hi there. Is there any way that i can get back my old recovery (EMERGENCY MODE) thing back on my phone?
I installed rommanager then clockworkmod then custom kernel (MIK) to get rid of my touch lag. It worked! Thanks MIK!
Now I would like to get back my old emergency mode.
Reason for this is, if my phone needs to get serviced, the warranty would probably be void if they see the clockworkmod. Thanks!!!
My latest firmware is 10F. 2.2.2. Please guide me too.

Woah. That is a uber fast reply. Thanks!
I presume that the file that i need is..
Original_Recovery_ThunderG.zip
Am I right?
Also, if i would like to flash the recovery, I have to use the adb command thing right? I can't use clockwork recovery to flash it back right?
Thanks!

Hi All!
I have an HTC One X+, International. I have decided to try and "play" with it and so I have Unlocked and Rooted and then tried Installing a Custom Rom, based on those instructions:

Unlock and Root went well, and so installing TWRP (its present).
Then I got here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2067325
After trying to install the ROM (first image then zip - followed the instructions), the device is booting with the CM logo spinning, but then it gives out an "Unfortunately, NFC Service has stopped " error...
Please help!
I tried to go back to the original restore via TWRP - no luck. The HTC screen appears and then stuck in it.

Try and flash another ROM & Image. It appears the ROM might not have been downloaded properly.
BTW what happened after it gave the NFC error? Did you complete the rest of the process and simply restarted the device?
flash the CORRECT kernel! read the op!!!!!!! why do you people not read?! seriously!
full wipe the rom before flashing CM on top of whatever you had before!
the rom works correct! the problem is you
Cant flash another rom

I cant get a new rom to the device - the computer stopped recognizing it and I have no idea how to get a file on it (maybe somehow via the terminal/SDK.bat?).
After it gives the NFC error, there is an "OK' button. I hit it a few times and nothing happens. Then the screen goes off and I cant turn it back on, unless I use the power button/volume down...
I did though tried a different image... same result.

I am assuming you have latest ADB tools installed in your system.
You can use ADB sideload to copy ROM in the phone
When you are pressing the powerbutton + vol down - I hope you are getting to boot loader?

Hi Lloir!
I much appreciate the personnel response and the time you took to reply to me.
Before I had the original HOX+ rom+sense and I believe I DID a full wipe
I flashed the kernel from your post. I believe that my lack of knowledge lead me to download the wrong one (?) boot-BLADE-42-201305062233
Would you be so kind and please guide me to the correct steps? I have spent several hours allready trying to fix this issue.

This was FAST answer!
I see my mistake (reading comprehension) :
CM10 - for 4.1 based roms e.g. CM10 and AOKP 4.1.2
CM10.1 - ONLY for CM10.1
42 - 4.2 based roms e.g. AOKP 4.2.1 and AOSP 4.2.1
I thought that your ROM is based on the 4.2 (?)
Downloading the Kernel now.
By the way, when and how do I add the gapps?
flash kernel
flash rom
after rom flash the gapps

Thank you. I already flashed kernel and rom. Phone booted up and seem to work. A few issues:
1) I did not put the gapps zip on the phone before the process.
2) Though the phone appears as a drive in Windows, I can not copy any file to it.
3) Camera says NO SD Card and exits....

From the command line, type adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip

I am curious to see if anyone knows the possibility of simply booting into TWRP on a new T-Mobile V10 (fastboot boot twrp.img, NOT fastboot flash recovery twrp.img) and pulling the STOCK recovery. If anyone knows if it is possible and/or is willing to be a guinea pig to pull stock recovery I am sure it would be helpful to many in the community.

Yeah, I never flashed TWRP, just booted it to flash SU. So, as per your request, I booted it again and did a backup of only recovery. So this should be stock recovery, since I had never flashed TWRP, hopefully? I don't know how to turn it into an img file tho, but you could restore it in TWRP. Hope it helps.

Logs would be appreciated. Get adb installed on your computer and authorize your device (good ol usb debugging etc) and I want you to do "adb shell ls /data/misc/wifi" and post the output. Also, have you tried reporting this in the thread of the rom? Have you tried another rom? If you're in the urgent need for a device, why would you use a custom operating system for it? I mean, what's the worst that could happen, a vital function doesn't work. Also, try to use an older version of the rom. Those are just my $0.02.
Hi and thanks for responding!

"adb shell ls /data/misc/wifi" isn't working ("adb shell ls /misc", "adb shell /wifi")
only "adb shell ls /data" and i can't get a log of that-there isn't any option there.
Also, have you tried reporting this in the thread of the rom?
I thought that it isn't permitted by the laws of XDA forums, then didn't do that.
Have you tried another rom?
Yes I've tried another Rom, and still the same problem (no network and no signal).
If you're in the urgent need for a device, why would you use a custom operating system for it?
Because, the original rom after flashing it, stuck in the galaxy S5 screen and the android system doesn't get up at all.

First, have you verified that your IMEI didn't get erased?
When you flashed the original firmware, you said it bootlooped and wouldn't boot into android system, did you try booting to stock recovery then factory reset and wipe cache partition? Sometimes this is necessary after flashing with Odin.

The firmware that you flashed, was it older than the stock version that was already on the device? Most Samsung devices that were made after the introduction of 4.4 Kit Kat can't be downgraded. In other words, if your device already had stock lollipop then you can't flash Kit Kat but you can flash lollipop or Marshmallow, if you go up to marshmallow, you can't go back to lollipop but you can go to nougat, if you go up to nougat then you can't go back to marshmallow and so on and so on.
You can stay where you are or step forward but you can't step backward. This probably isn't your issue.
Are you certain that the firmware you are flashing is for your exact model number?

And now when i'm trying to flash this Rom (4.4.2) or any other from the other Stock Roms for this device (SCL23)
it's passing the first screen that says "Samsung Galaksy S5" and stuck on the second screen that says only "Samsung" or "Galaxy" (depends on the andriod version 4.4.2/7.1.1).
I'm without any cellular device for 5 days now.

If you flashed 7.1.1, it probably upgraded your bootloader (wiping your personal data in the process). If it upgraded bootloader, you probably can't go back to 4.4.2. I described this in my earlier reply.
Try booting to stock recovery then factory reset and wipe cache partition, then boot into download mode and flash 7.1.1, after flashing, if it doesn't boot, boot to stock recovery again and factory reset and wipe cache. If that doesn't work then maybe flashing the PIT along with the 7.1.1 firmware might do it. I would not use the PIT unless,the last resort, I can cause worse issues if something goes wrong.

Try booting to stock recovery then factory reset and wipe cache partition, then boot into download mode and flash 7.1.1,
-You mean to flash to 4.4.2 in Download mode and then within Recovery mode to to do factory reset and wipe cache partition, and after that to go to Download mode and flash 7.1.1.
And if that won't work to PIT along with the 7.1.1 firmware- how to that, from where do I get the PIT?

No, don't flash 4.4.2.
1) boot to recovery, factory reset and wipe cache.
2) boot to download mode, flash 7.1.1.
3) if it doesn't boot after flashing 7.1.1, boot to recovery, factory reset and wipe cache.
4) if it still doesn't work, try flashing 7.1.1 again but this time find the PIT file for your specific model number and flash it along with 7.1.1 in Odin.
To find a copy of your PIT, do a Google search for:
"PIT for (your model number)"
If that doesn't find it, you'll have to find someone here at XDA that has your exact device and has theirs rooted, get them to pull a copy of the PIT from their device using Terminal Emulator or adb shell, then get them to upload it for you so you can download the copy and use it.
You'll have to do some searching to find out how to pull the PIT.

I explained where to get it if you don't find it on the web, did you read my entire post? I will not repeat myself when the answer is in the post above yours. That's how you got in this mess, you don't thoroughly read and pay attention to the details.

Few questions...
1. Was this a clean install? All partitions wiped?
2. Are you sure u got the Japanese varient ROM?
3. Did you try this one ? https://sourceforge.net/projects/re...v5.8.3-20170518-kltekdi-Official.zip/download maybe the build was bad that u installed. This is more recent.

You find them by looking around or use the XDA search feature, the one that says "search all forums", type your model number there, you should find other threads about your device in the results, look through those threads and find someone that has been active recently and has a rooted device like yours, then get them to pull a copy.
Sorry, but you're not gonna get this kind of answer just handed to you, you're gonna have to do the hard work for yourself, we don't spoonfeed, we give the information needed to help you find the answer YOURSELF, it is YOUR device, if you want it fixed then you should be willing to dig deep for answers.

OK i'll try that. Thanks.
tried to flash viper, made back up first. restoring gives me error in title. daily/only phone fast responses much appreciated!
Solved! Backup was working. TWRP keeps saying no OS. Used Power + Vol Down to restart and booted into system. Had an issue with the lock screen. Got past that too. TWRP still thinks there's no OS after reflashing TWRP but it's not keeping me stuck in recovery anymore.

I've come across this issue plenty of times. Did TWRP begin to recognize the individual partitions of your OS after backups and can you flash mods and zips normally? Usually this would land you in Bootloop City.

I've run into the same problem after restoring from a recovery. Power+vol down works, but I'd like to fix the underlying issue. How do you flash a kdz without boot/recovery?

patched lg up files and use Partition DL mentioned in this post. Just grab whichever kdz you're going to use and use that link as a general guide but leaving out boot, recovery, recoverybak.

That worked, although I forgot to leave out recoverybak (backup)? Could that be a problem down the road?

Some have found TWRP missing after flashing and only unchecking boot and recovery. Not a big deal, just have to fastboot flash it again.

It means you no longer have TWRP custom recovery, but have the useless stock recovery.
You can reinstall TWRP.
