Hi, I was looking everywhere since yesterday but can't find a solution. I had cwm + twpr + lollipop cm12. I've decided to back to stock, so as allways: driver, b2cApp, kdz, v20h and v10a, usb, s/w mode, xml parser, shhtp, etc... Standard offline kdz method. But during flashing I stuck on 15% and get the info that my phone anad pc are not connected by usb cable, I tried changing usb ports at pc, reinstaling everything, but I have still the same error. If that woldn't be much enough I ****ed something up and I think I don't have any recovery right now
I can put my phone in s/w mode but I stuck on 15% with usb not connected error.
I can put my phone in fastboot mode but my pc does not recognize it, its just pluging in and out it from windows.
I can put my phone in stuck on LG logo 'mode'
Any help? How to unbrick it? How to flash stock or at least some custom recovery? Of course unlocked bootloader. Please help me :crying:
Key it ****ed up even more.
When kdz show me to connect my cable i clicked retry, plugen cable out and in, kdz found my device, and go to step 2. In half way I had again the same error, so again clicked retry, plug out, plug in. Again founded my device, when I had downloaded 100%, same situation. founded my device, log that tool is extracting kdz and nothing. Waiting about ~1,5h, nothing happend, so I diconected cable. In that moment kdz go to third step and I get windows force close for not repodnig app kdz. I said a loud **** and started again. Phone has not been found anymore by kdz. After a few tries, booted to fastboot, and connected to computer. It has been found as Google Fasbtoo USB, no way to update driver to fastboot. I disconected phone and decided to try again with s/w but nope. S/W not turning on anymore (with or without battery). Fastboot not turning on any more. Just LG logo, when I'm connecting device to PC it is sometging pluging in and out but nothing showing in device manager
Any ideas? Please!
I have the SAME problem with my (now old) LG... I read more than 20 tutorials for getting back to stock and nothing
Sent from my GT-I9205 using XDA Free mobile app
I triend on clen frsh windows I get OMAP device, fastboot is finding my device but wont start fastboot mode in my phone, when trying to flash cwm I get security error and still no s/w mode So I'm affraid that we have to say goodbay to our L9
What's more:
1. Can't find orginal p760 recovery, tried to flash p769 and I get wird effect, after LG logo screen looks like broekrn, some color stripes and all display going to white, then turn off.
2. Using fastboot and choosing options wit u-boot making my phone turning to LG logo with no security error, still no s/w, fastboot or recovery mode.
3. Using option 1 (1. Fastboot) from the fastboot tool is making my phone turnig black screen and nothin more, no even LG logo.
Please can anyone help us?
Hi,
I got my new phone a couple of days back, installed CM13 (officially unlocked, did that with TWRP + install ROM) probably incorrectly because i couldn't get the fingerprint sensor and other stuff to work at all.
Today my phone turned off by itself with around 70% of battery left and it's not responding anymore. Cannot go into Recovery mode, not even to Fastboot. Connected it to the charger and have the red light of the devil blinking... Tried to do everything i found online but i couldn't get into EDL mode (and then Flash through MiFlash), since fastboot is not working at all.
I really don't wanna have to open the back of the phone and. What can i do to save the phone? Is there any proven solution and a comprehensive guide to this (for a total idiot like me)?
Yes there is deep flash cable method search on xda/youtube it works like a charm,😉, this method saved me once
Try this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-hard-bricked-redmi-t3490055) works 100%
Try to disconnect and reconnect the battery.
This has kicked me into EDL mode once and after flashing it was fine
Both methods are sound, but if you decide to remove the back cover, remember to eject the SIM card tray first
Thanks for the replies, i was hoping i wouldn't have to have to open the back cover and disconnect the battery but it seems to be the only option at this point.
The deep flash cable doesn't seem that difficult tho, why don't you give it a shot? It seems like that's what they use at MI service centres after all.
So i have managed successfully to have the pc recognise the device as Qualcomm Hs USB Qdloader 9008, opened the MiFlash tool and recognised the device, but when i try to flash a stable MIUI rom i get an error: "Write timed out" as many times i tried to do it.
Does anybody have a suggestion?
My device was unlocked officially and i have no recovery no fastboot nothing at all.

Which method you used - Deep Flash cable or Battery disconnect?
Yeah sorry i did not mention it, disconnected the battery.
i tried the battery removing method but the phone is not responding
now need to try cable method

Hi all, I will try to be as detailed as possible.
I have a MetroPCS LG MS323 which I bought as a second phone to use when I travel as my regular phone is CDMA and I wanted a GSM phone that I could use with a sim card. While on an overseas trip I paid a cellphone place to unlock the phone so I could use other carriers' sim card, it was working fine since then. However, as I don't use the phone on a regular basis it ended up sitting and the battery lost its charge. When I tried to charge it by usb, it started bootlooping (vibrate, LG logo, repeat). After that I pulled the battery and charged it using an external charger. The phone is not rooted. I tried the factory reset key combo, but it gets stuck on the screen which says factory reset processing........ endlessly. I tried to download kdz file and flash with LG flash tool but phone cannot get into download mode. When I press vol key and plug usb cable, it says LOADING.......... press volum up key until download mode starts But it gets stuck there and download mode never starts.
I downloaded adb and fastboot to a Windows 7 laptop, and LG drivers, but when I connect phone and open a terminal adb devices shows no phone connected.
I also downloaded Laf.img for this phone and Laf recovery tool for Windows but again I cannot seem to get computer to see the phone. If I try to use the tool it says "waiting for device"
One difficulty is to trying to plug phone to computer the right way.
Most of the threads say to have phone in battery charge mode with usb debugging enabled, but I can't select any settings if the phone is bricked.
If I just plug the phone to usb when it is turned off it shows a picture of battery but no sign of charging, and computer doesn't detect phone.
If I plug phone to usb first, then hold vol and power key the LG logo will go black and it vibrates, in that case sometimes the Windows laptop will see 2 folders, verinfo and image.
When I plug usb cable to Linux computer and phone is off, same thing just picture of battery but terminal only shows sda1 sda2 sda3 etc no sdb no sdc just like not detected.
If I hold vol down then plug usb it vibrates and stuck on LG logo.
I have also tried to plug usb, then press vol down and power until phone vibrates, then try to let go buttons before LG logo shows up. but it doesn't mount.
If I hold vol up and power, then plug usb. it vibrates and goes to LG logo.
Last night somehow I got it to mount on the linux computer but the file manager was going crazy opening multiple windows and a list of folders would show up for a second, disappear and reappear as if the system was trying to read the folders but having difficulty. Today I am not able to get it to mount.
I have downloaded a linux livecd with adb and fastboot, I haven't tried it yet because I am not sure the path to flash an img file from a different directory on the hard drive on the windows laptop.
I have downloaded aboot.img but don't know how I can flash it if I can't see the phone on any computers.
I have spent days searching for solutions but have not seen the exact same problem, other threads suggest things but often the symptoms are slightly different or with a different phone. So, first of all I need to know what kind of brick I have, because other solutions I have seen posted for completely black screen, or phone detected as qhsusb qualcomm etc. which seems like a different problem.
So the 2 main things are 1, to know which kind of brick because many of the solutions I see posted seem like a different problem.
second, what is the best way to plug to computer so I can see the phone?
I burned a live CD of FWUL and ran adb from linux, still says adb devices nothing shows up. usb cable is plugged in and phone is turned off. Am I doing this wrong? I held down power and vol down until phone vibrates and LG logo appears. adb devices - "list of devices attached" still has nothing showing.. I don't know why even in Linux I can't see any device attached. Also I tried with pressing vol up and power until phone vibrates.
ls /dev/sd* only shows sda sda1 sda2 etc
I have also looked at past threads about unlocking the L70 bootloader, but the bootloader.zip no longer links and the phone does not have busybox installed.
I tried to see it Windows Device Manager but it does not show up anywhere.
This probably won't help, but, when you're at this point, you'll try about anything.
Did you fully install the LG drivers on your PC? Obvious seeming question. I was doing an old Droid Bionic a couple months ago and didnt' switch the USB modes (charging, media, file transfer, whatever it had) to each mode before modding .
As a result, I bricked that Droid bad. It took me almost a week and a half to restore it. I'm not sure if LG drivers work the same way, though I've worked on plenty of them. I think I have an LG Leon still in the scrap heap as a result of trying to replace a cracked digitizer that was bonded to the LCD. If anyone needs parts for one, I've got em, cheap I think that's an MS345 if I recall.

Thanks, yes I had installed latest LG drivers LGMobileDriver WHQL Ver 4.2.0 before trying to flash .kdz file.
A tiny bit of progress to report, after getting a perfect timing to release the power and vol down keys I was finally able to connect to Windows machine. while waiting for drivers to install it was detected as QHSUSB_BULK in device manager, after drivers loaded now it is listed as LGE AndroidNet USB Serial {port (COM4). However when I run adb I still cannot see an attached device. I will look at solutions for the specific type of brick problem which has now been identified.

What I meant was after initially installing the drivers did you switch the USB mode on your LG to all possible settings? Some drivers (like Moto) install more functions only when first called. you'll know if you switch from say charging to MTP or RNDIS you'll see driver install reopen.
also when you first ran ADB and plugged in the phone you probably should have seen more drivers install.
Forgive me if I seem to insult your intelligence. I'm an IT pro w 30 yrs in tech and I didn't know about the multi driver USB functions.
Tom Sgt aka Rootjunky has a good video on this that i initially didn't watch figuring I'd been installing drivers forever. 5 more minutes of watching it would have saved near 40 hrs of work and research

thanks, I found his video for the G2 and no, I have never seen that with the drivers before! good to know. You can't insult my intelligence because most of this is over my head and I'm just trying to follow stuff I found with Google on XDA......
I downloaded and installed the Qualcomm drivers to try and identify if I have the 9006 or 9008 variety brick. However now when I plug in the phone Windows waits to install drivers, then says successful, when I look in device manager now I can't find the phone. But I did notice on the taskbar now there appears an icon named "intel graphics media accelerator driver for mobile" perhaps that is the driver Windows assigned to it? Device manager does have Intel Graphics Media Accelerator under display adapters. The other weird thing is that now it shows the battery as charging, which it never did the other times I plugged it into usb.

Can you boot into fastboot? if so, you could flash the firmware with that.

Hi, yes although those links no longer work I have found the drivers and flashtool elsewhere. If I try to run flashtool it cannot see the phone. I cannot get into fastboot, and download mode won't load. I cannot see the phone on any Linux machine. The most I can do it see the phone as E: Qualcomm MMC storage USB device in Device Manager, but no other details. Explorer can see 2 folders, image and verinfo. Is there anything I can do with these folders in Windows? adb and fastboot run from terminal still do not list any attached device. Windows did a search for drivers for QHSUSB_BULK, although in device manager it still says LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM5).
What I really want to do at this point is push aboot.img to the phone, but for some reason I can't access the phone with Linux or adb. maybe because it did not have usb debugging enabled before it bricked. So many of the threads I have seen require a working phone to implement the steps, is there any way to enable usb debugging when the phone doesn't work?

Of course, I had forgotten about that. In order to use fastboot, most flashing tools, you HAVE to have USB debugging on.
There are occasional ways around this, though they are few. I do seem to recall oding it on that LG Leon. OR it may have been a Moto e or G, let me look back at previous threads i've asked for help in.
(Hmm, perhaps taking notes, or just leaving a webcam running while I'm doing a new device might be valuable in the future, I think with remarkable hindsight.) :cyclops:

And no, you can't do anything to Android files in Windows, except see them. they are generally a different file system
One of the difficulties is just plugging it to a PC. 9 out of 10 times it is not recognized and nothing happens. So far the only way that seems to occasionally work is to plug the usb cable to the Windows 7 laptop, hold vol down and power, release both as soon as it vibrates. Most of the time I can't get it timed exactly right, but if I'm lucky sometimes Windows will detect the usb connection by following these steps. If I try on a Linux machine nothing happens, phone stays invisible. The most I've gotten with Linux is to charge the battery, but will not mount.
It is just a stock phone, not rooted, no busybox, no developer options enabled.
So this is a budget phone , spent hours obsessing over rooting it, did the whole process several different times several different ways,
the funny thing is , i can't event brick this device . this runs OREO 8.1 which a chopped down version of the full OREO 8.0 , basically it's designed for budget "entry level phones" . So i'm wondering
why they would make it so unbrickable? is it possible that this device doesn't even have a bootloader? if not why is it so hard to get to it?
Can't access fastboot mode nor the bootloader
One year later and this is still an issue. Here is my situation:
I bought an OTG (on-the-go) cord that allows me to connect a USB stick to my phone in order to extend my storage capabilities, but my phone doesn't natively support OTG (it basically doesn't have the drivers for it). In order to add support for it I need to root my phone, which I am having serious trouble with.
After hours of researching, installing, uninstalling, and factory resetting I've narrowed everything down to not being able to access the bootloader to select the fastboot mode. Here are my phone details:
Device Name: LG K20 (boot screen says "LG k20 Plus" however)
Model: LM-X120WM
Android Version: 9
Build Number: PKQ1.180904.001
Software Version: X120WM11c
As far as configurations go, I have:
- Enabled Developer Support
- Enabled OEM Unlocking
- Enabled USB Debugging
- Made my computer a Trusted Device on the phone
- There are no special "adb" options or configurations within my phone (I saw one website mentioned something about "adb" some options, but I only saw this once, and my phone doesn't have it anyway).
So far I have tried:
1) Holding the Power + Volume Down button for 10 seconds, then releasing the Power button when I see the LG logo, then repress the Power button until I see the "Factory Reset" menu. All this does it give me options to Factory Reset unfortunately (which I've done).
2) Holding Power + Volume Down button for 10 seconds. This simply reboots the phone and does nothing else.
3) I've downloaded, installed (on both my phone and my computer when needed), and tried rooting using the following programs: Dr.Fone, KingoRoot, RootGenius, iRoot, SuperSU Pro, and Superuser. There were some others I tried as well, but I determined I couldn't get anywhere with them specifically because I could not access fastboot mode (one example is "Magisk Manager").
4) Using ADB tools within command prompt (the most commonly recommended method) I tried rebooting the device into fastboot mode using the command "adb fastboot bootloader". The phone simply reboots and that's it, it has not switched into fastboot mode. You can confirm if you are by using the command "fastboot devices", which my device never shows.
5) I have gone to the LG website in order to download the drivers for this phone, however, while I am able to locate my specific device on the LG website, it directs me to download the "LG Mobile Support Tool", rather than download the drivers specifically for this device. I downloaded and installed the LG Mobile Support Tool but when the tool loads it does not recognize my device and tells me I need to install the drivers, which it gives me an option to do. Naturally I start the process to install the drivers but when it gives me the list of phone models mine is not in there *and you cannot proceed without selecting a model*. So, I tried using the closest model to mine (the LMX510WM), but it still didn't work.
6) Because LG does not have a direct download of the drivers for this device specifically I have tried downloading a variety of different drivers for this device. None have resolved the issue, but at this time *I believe* I have the most recent version of the LG drivers available "LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.5.0".
7) I've tried adding the USB drivers through any install tools that came with them, and I've tried installing them manually via "Device Manager -> Add Legacy Hardware" and choosing the driver files specifically. This has not resolved the issue.
8) Installed the "wpdmtp.inf" file found within "c:\windows\INF" as recommended for Windows 10 users on one forum or another. Did not resolve the issue.
9) Installed the full Android Studio suite hoping something I was missing would be available, I also tried using the "adb" tools they provided: no love.
10) I also tried powering off the phone, holding the Volume Down button while plugging in the USB cord. This is supposed to do *something*, the instructions says I should enter "download mode", but on my phone does nothing.
11) the XDA-Developers forum suggested installed LGBridge_Setup.exe if I was having problems with drivers, which I have. When I ran the program it wasn't able to connect to my phone.
At this time I've uninstalled almost all software and all extra drivers from my computer (I left only the "LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.5.0" drivers), as well as having factory reset the phone.
Everything is ready for another attempt, I've just run out of ideas. Thoughts?
Hi, I have also been trying to root this phone for the last year, but failed.
Everything is exactly the same as your phone regarding Build#, model # etc except i have software version X120WM10c .
The phone always wants to update but then it fails every single time.
I am hoping to root the phone so i can debloat it, and remove the restrictions preventing me from using it the way I want.
Anyone have any advice/info please post here. I will do the same.
Anyone? No response in almost a year.

first of all you guys, are talking about two diferent very disimilar phones.. mediatek v20,qualcomm on the k9.....
myself i have a x210wm k9 im trying to find compatable firmware for.
The phone is working fine without root. Seems very fast for $99 CAD phone!
I seem to have gotten my N200 in a state where it will not power on. No screen display, no vibrations, and unresponsive to volume and power buttons (standalone or combination). It's a DE2118, T-Mobile variant, network locked and not rooted.
Here are the conditions leading up to it:
The phone was plugged in to my PC via USB, (through a USB hub).
My Sim/SD tray was ejected.
I had been using an ADB shell to disable-user some apps and check out some various PM commands.
I did not terminate the ADB shell before powering down from the phone.
Once powered off, I held the volume up+volume down+power buttons to attempt to check out the recovery mode. I've never entered recovery mode before on this device.
The USB cable was still plugged in and I could hear the USB new device sounds on my PC a few times while I did this but didn't think anything of it.
Nothing ever appeared on the screen and pushing any of the buttons seem to provide no response.
Battery usage was at least 80%, if not closer to 90% before this happened.
It almost seems like the device is powered on and running as there feels like there's some very slight warmth on the back panel, near the center just under the camera area but I might just be imagining the warmth.
I'm aware that it needs to be network unlocked before it can be rooted as per other threads and I have not tried any root methods.
I still have my ADB shell dialog up but there really isn't much interesting in it besides a lot of the command help dialog.
What are my options?
Note: I recently installed the Jan 6th android 11 security update maybe a day before.
Edit: For anyone looking at this later, the phone came back after a complete battery drain and partial recharge and I was able to replicate the bricked state performing the same thing, usb debugging on, plugged in to usb hub on pc, shut down phone, then holding all 3 buttons down for a while.
Windows or Linux pc?
Does your device show up in device manager if windows?
If Linux, do you see the device if you run
adb devices or fastboot devices?

I'm using Windows 7 mainly.
It shows up in device manager when I plug in the USB but with error code 28, unknown driver.
In Win7, "adb devices" lists a blank line for devices.
In Linux, "adb devices" lists a blank line for devices.
In Linux, "fastboot devices" has no output at all.
If your phone is showed in device manager you should be able to give him his life back...had the same situation long time ago with my oppo find 7..
Try this, and see if it'll recognize you for MSM download.

Will give it a try. Going to be a few hours to DL the file as I'm on an extremely slow connection atm.
Well, I think that made it worse. Couldn't get the Qualcomm CAB drivers working on Windows 7, but got it through Windows Update. The MSM tool went through the process fully but afterward I unplugged the device and tried to boot, still no response, nothing on screen, no vibration. Now when I plug my device back in to the USB, I have an endless new usb device noise and windows says "Unknown Device". Device manager refreshes constantly while its plugged in. Looking back I should have probably tried ADB first before running the MSM tool.
After almost 24 hours of being unplugged, I tried plugging it in again and it finally had some signs of life with the low battery warning and then TMobile splash screen+vibration+sound after about 5 minutes. Still waiting on it to charge up for now. Probably just needed to be power cycled in the end instead of attempting to flash anything. I sure do miss the days of removable batteries.

In the future, you can power cycle the device by holding all three buttons on the phone for 30 seconds while it isn't plugged into a PC.

I had tried that yesterday to no avail. Was very strange. Everything seems to be working as normal now, though factory reset from running the MSM tool. I'm wondering if I'd be able to duplicate the issue again.
Could not replicate with USB debugging off and plugged directly in to my PC's USB port, but turning on USB debugging and plugging in to my USB hub, shutting down the phone, and then power cycling with all three buttons brought the same bricked state.
Don't know for sure if the USB port matters but while bricked plugging in to the USB hub always gives a USB device error sound. Going directly on PC it connects fine as a new device (as QUSB_BULK without drivers or Qualcomm HS USB QDLoader 9008 with drivers). ADB/Fastboot commands from PC's command line don't seem to do anything.
I did notice the fastboot menu show up on screen for a second when power cycling this time and I don't recall it appearing the first time. I think i may have had "advanced reboot" turned on the first time, while it was off this time.
Powercycling actually reset it this time.
Possible solution
It would seem that you can force MSM to write both a and b slots, which might fix your issue. Might be worth a shot
Note: If this swaps you to the Tmobile software, there's no guarantee you'll have anything but a phone that cannot be bootloader unlocked again. Since unlocked have no unlock token, trying to do so with a phone that isn't technically Tmobile may be an issue.
Just had the same problem. Holding all buttons for 30 seconds worked.
if you bricked it and you have tmobile variant you can restore it weather you have a locked or unlocked bootloader.
you have to get your phone in EDL mode, once in EDL mode you will see the "QUSB_BULK_CID" in device manager. you will then need to install qualcomm drivers (if done manually you will have to endable windows test mode, if you use the qualcomm USB driver installer then it will do it for you and you will be in test mode upon next windows reboot.) Reboot windows in TEST MODE. NOTE: i said WINDOWS TEST MODE... Once in windows test mode the driver should function and look normal in device manager. From there just open the MSM tool for your version of Nord N200 and flash and wait about 3-5 minutes. Reboot the phone and you are back in Oxygen OS.
Tips and extra Files needed below:
for the tmobile NORD N200 MSM tool
