After countlss hours of messing with the LG P769 This is how i got into S/W mode to work !:laugh:
ASSUMING you know how to install fastboot drivers there are instructions on the forum ...so follow those guide note fastboot drivers work best on windows 7 windows 8 was giving me hard time ...
1.install fastboot drivers
2.run lelus script at the same time hold vol+ button once the script shows the OMAP device close the script and immediately put the battery back in .The LG phone will boot into S/W mode !
Make sure you write down your imei or serial number AND make sure battery is fully charged . then
Now simply use the LG software tool or the KDZ offline flasher look around the forum for how to guides

Then try enter in lelus fastboot mode, ad then flash x-loader, uloader, boot.img and recovery.img from stock rom for your device type model. Then repeat steps 1 and 2
Where can I find the lelus script?

Sorry for reviving such an old thread, but oh well...
Your procedure doesn't seem to work with my device. Just to make sure we are using the same driver packages, can you post a link to the fastboot driver you have successfully used?
My L9 is always showing this "partition doesn't exist" error message, no matter what I try. Lelus's script seems to do the job and the phone is detected as a fastboot device, and can even be detected in LG Flash Tool (using a 910K cable), but flashing will stop after a little over 2 minutes, because the phone disconnects. During all of my attempts, the screen stays black.
Any hint?

Then you need a Technician with a Octopus Box to repair your partition table...

Can you boot into recovery? We now have a custom recovery for locked bootloaders (and CM roms). If you can get into recovery, I would try some adb commands to mount the partitions.
No, no recovery. Just to make sure that I'm not doing it wrong, what is the key combination to boot to recovery?
I have also tried:
Code:
fastboot boot some_recovery_image.img
It says ok, but the phone just hangs at the black screen and becomes undetectable as a fastboot device, until I pull the battery. So, unless the some_recovery_image.img is unsuitable for my P760 (which may be!), there is something seriously wrong I think.
Or maybe I can try the same command with the custom recovery for bootloader locked phones... Where can I find it?

Your EMMC partition is wiped or fried... you really need a JTAG service or a Box like octopus because your L9 is Hard-bricked...
Thanks for your opinion. Yet, I still want to hear from others.
I'm running into more and more problems with the L9 as their me grows.
-Fastboot doesn't work under Windows 8.1 and 10, but under the now obsolete(for me) Windows 7, unlike my other devices, which are fine with Win 10.
-ADB seems to work, but requiring the device to be still able to boot.
-I always boot to recovery from within Android as long as the L9 ain't bricked. After a failed rom install, during which the sd card failed(could no longer write or be formatted afterwards, the last time stamps of files and folders were set during the failed install) I discovered a problem with TWRP(Artas182x's and Edwin's), which may have been present since a long time: Trying to invoke TWRP via keypress will brick the device!
So, if my P760 no longer boots, there's only download mode available, sort of the final line of defense.
-There's sort of a trick if even download mode fails: After a failed attempt unplug phone, force switch-off, if the phone is in brick state. Then switch on, force switch-off again, and only then attempt download mode again. And have patience while holding down the vol button, it might take up to 20 seconds for the phone to switch itself on into download mode. (A single forced powerdown will cause Fastboot NOT to work the next time)
But I'm absolutely clueless about the recovery issue, for now TWRP is semi-working, can only be accessed via Android, as long as the phone is fully working.
W/o Fastboot, I now have flashed stock rom several times and rooted it with Kingo rooter just to be able to run Flashify to install TWRP. If Flashify is the culprit for the TWRP issues, I could need a recommendation for a better working app.

Tried OMAP flasher ? It needs memory configuration file in order to work with our device
No, I didn't. I have sold the phone for spares.
Inviato dal mio LG-D855 utilizzando Tapatalk
I never needed the OMAP drivers and tools. As they are ancient, they will probably make even more problems with newer Windows versions.
I could by no means invoke Fastboot on this device with Windows 8.1 and 10, Seven worked. So you had to go for Download Mode instead to recover to stock rom, then root with the Kingo tool, then install TWRP via Rashr or Flashify, the most time consuming way to recover from the frequent bricks.
And the LG Flash Tool 2014 always needed several attempts to get the job done. The latest official recovery tool from LG works in D/L Mode, but will always download the rom image anew.
First of all I would thank Crowds he is the best reference that I've to return in case of any problem I face. (He doesn't sleep - any time I ask he immediately supports)
I bought Lenovo K910 and I've managed successfully to install new ROM "VIBEUI_v2.0_1443" and Gapps with Crowds support.
I advised two of my friends to buy this good and cheap phone. For one of them I installed the latest rom successfully. But with the other I had a big problem The phone stuck on Lenovo Logo.
I was trying to install TWRP 2.7.0.0 batch before installing my new ROM, but during installation and after the phone rebooting the batch command screen shows <Waiting for Device> and the phone is stuck on logo screen.
I tried to connect the phone to PC many times, but PC doesn't recognize the phone. When I try to turn off the phone by pressing the power buttons, the phone restart on logo screen like the shown in this video.
I've read in many site that I have to do the following:
Download and install "minimal adb and fastboot"
Just type on the command line without pressing Enter:
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"][B][I]fastboot [COLOR="Plum"][STRIKE]boot[/STRIKE][/COLOR] recovery.img[/I][/B][/COLOR]
you should place your recovery image file in "minimal adb and fastboot" directory
The phone should be disconnected from computer and completely off (press the Power button for 10 seconds - in my case the phone is restarting)
Press and hold both volume buttons, then connect the cable to the PC.
Once the phone vibrate, press Enter to execute the recovery command line
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In my case when I press and hold power button the phone is restarting on logo screen so I have to wait for battery consumption
I tried many times with TWRP images but it failed...
I tried with CWM image and it succeeded to load, but I don't have otg cable to load recovery or ROM from usb storage (The problem was in installing TWRP and my ROM should has no problem)
I want to flash TWRP on phone not only loading by "minimal adb and fastboot".
I decided to flash TWRP 2.7.1.2 batch through modifying the batch file. I just used fastboot commands
Code:
[COLOR="blue"][I]fastboot oem device-info
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot oem device-info
fastboot [COLOR="Red"][U][B]flash[/B][/U][/COLOR] recovery data/recovery.img
fastboot flash aboot data/lock/emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash rpm data/lock/rpm.mbn
fastboot flash sbl1 data/lock/sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash dbi data/lock/sdi.mbn
fastboot flash tz data/lock/tz.mbn
fastboot reboot[/I][/COLOR]
Finally I succeeded to install Recovery and phone works well in the new recovery mode and the system mode that I've not update it yet
I want to share you the problem solution in brief:
Download and extract this file "flashrec TWRP v2.7.1.2" from here
Just select without executing "flashrec_Modified.bat" file from the extracted files.
The phone should be disconnected from computer and completely off (press the Power button for 10 seconds or wait for the battery to be almost empty)
Press and hold both volume buttons, then connect the cable to the PC.
Once the phone vibrate, press Enter to execute the recovery batch file
and as me the phone start the recovery mode in TWRP and can be rebooted in system without any problem
i must extract "flashrec TWRP v2.7.1.2 this file on phone or where? can u explain a

As long as the hardware is not physically broken, your K910 is unbrickable

You need to carefully follow each steps in the method - if you short that magic pin and then connect the USB cable (with battery disconnected), your computer will report seeing the device at either COM port 9008 or 9006. Then you can download the factory image to revive the phone. Of course you need to have the right device driver installed. Like I said, as long as the hardware is not broken, this procedure will succeed for sure.

The facts:
-I'm an idiot and I dun ****ed up.
-I'm a fool to believe I could power my way through learning how to flash roms and unlock the bootloader unofficially.
About the Device:
1: Kenzo.
2: I can access Fastboot (PWR +Volume down)
3: When I try to boot the device, the Mi logo is visible for 3 seconds, disappears, reappears again and then then the phone turns off.
3.a: When connected to my computer via the official cable, the screen remains pure black and the red light blinks repeatedly, as if in EDL. In device manager, the phone reads as "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E (COM10)
4:XiaoMIFlash and MiFlash tool both do not detect the phone when I hit refresh (which is why I can't seem to fix it)
5: Putting the device in Fastboot and attempting to send any command through CMD/ADB results in either nothing happening, or <waiting for device> showing up, and then nothing else happens. (This used to work before)
6: I don't believe I can access recovery (PWR+Volume UP)
7: Could not unlock bootloader officially due to getting stuck at 50% with "Not connected to Mi Phone" error.
I ****ed up. Bad. I really need help. I tried following many tutorials, but all of them assume that the device can be detected by MiFlash, but mine can't.
Please, I desperately need help. I'm new to android and if I can somehow manage to get this fixed, I'm keeping MIUI, to hell with custom roms, as long as it works.
Please help, I'm at my wit's end.
PS: If the only possible way to fix it is test point method, please post the name of all tools I need, so I can go and buy them.
PSS: Device bricked after attempting unofficial unlock. I never got to the "OEM unlock" part, it bricked before that.
PSSS: Before bricking, I was using China Dev rom. As to try and avoid bricking the device, I switched using miflash to kenzo_global_images_V8.0.5.0.LHOMIDG_20160805.0000.29_5.1_global.
Then, following the unofficial unlock tutorial, I tried flashing the same rom with the modified prog_emmc_firehose_8976_ddr, and it bricked there.

Have your phone boot into fastboot. Connect your phone, run adb and check if it receives commands by using : "fastboot devices". If it returns a value then your phone is detected on your computer. Next, download this file : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424940129
Now, extract the zip file and open Reboot.bat . This will open cmd and press the enter key.
Your phone is now booted into EDL mode. Now MiFlash should detect your phone and you can flash a stock image from the Miui forum. Probably best to to flash stable ROM (fastboot ROM).

Make sure that you've disabled driver verification signature, your path to the image folder does not contain any spaces, and also the flash all data except data and storage option.
hey there!
i need some help here please!
i was trying to unlock my bootloader (using this guide) and it went all fine till step 17 (command "fastboot oem unlock-go"), it said i got no permission for unlocking. and now i'm stuck here. the only thing that works is fastboot mode. from there i can switch to adb using the reboot-to-edl-patch, but then i'm stuck again. device-manager shows device as usual (ports COM & LPT) and the red light is blinking, but command "adb devices" replies an empty list. tried "adb kill-server", replugging phone, rebooting computer, still the same.
so what can i do now?
thanks for helping!
Hi. You can install a fastboot rom in edl-mode with mi flash. I recomend a developer rom for this action. Then you can try the unofficial unlock from the start, but i recomend the official unlock.

sorry, forgot to say that miflash does not show the device after i selected the rom. i need to do something before i can flash via edl-mode. but what?
Make sure that you have the correct drivers installed on a 64bit machine, with driver signature off. And you cant get adb device list from there, so thats normal. Try to install the 7.1.8 fastboot rom that should work.
Well even m in a same situation.... as u said ur mobile is giving u red led blinks.. ..
And in device Manger ur fone is showed as Qualcomm 900E instead of 9008 and that's the reason adb couldn't list ur device
All u need to do is do a Google search - xiaomi deep flash cable

phone is showed as showed as Qualcomm 9008, and meanwhile i'm able to flash fastboot-rom again. still can't unlock though
AnF replies: FAILED: <remote: oem unlock is not allowed>
finished. total time: 0.016s
drivers are installed correctly, i'm working in signature-off-mode.
tried 7.1.8 rom, can't unlock that either..
maybe a stupid question, but anyway: phone had miui version 8 before i started trying to unlock.. is something wrong with that?

phone is showed as showed as Qualcomm 9008, and meanwhile i'm able to flash fastboot-rom again. still can't unlock though
AnF replies: FAILED: <remote: oem unlock is not allowed>
finished. total time: 0.016s
drivers are installed correctly, i'm working in signature-off-mode.
tried 7.1.8 rom, can't unlock that either..
maybe a stupid question, but anyway: phone had miui version 8 before i started trying to unlock.. is something wrong with that?

There is no problem with miui 8. You just have to follow the steps from this post: [Tips and Tutorials] Redmi Note 3 [ SnapDragon ] - Unlock the BEAST in Seconds!!! . Just google it, because i cant post links here... Make a efs partition backup before you proceed! With a bad flash you can lose your IMEI like lots on the forum did... I would say to unlock your phone with the official unlock. Good luck!

tried that, but no success in unlocking. same reply as mentoined above (FAILED: <remote: oem unlock is not allowed>)
is there any other rom i could try to flash? not to unlock the bootloader afterwards, but to just unbrick my phone?
I would recomend to install a global developer rom for now. And unlock your bootloader with the official method.
---------- Post added at 07:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 PM ----------
Just install a developer ROM like you did before. Then you can decide what to do next. I would recommend to unlock your bootloader officially if you want custom ROMs on your phone.
good news: i finally managed to unbrick it!
flashing the fastboot 7.1.8 rom, and then flashing the original emmc_appsboot.mbn file via fastboot:
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash abootbak emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot reboot
during reboot holding volume-up + power and starting mi pc suite
..and suddenly it's unbricked!
so happy right now!
Glad to hear that.

hey there!
i need some help here please!
i was trying to unlock my bootloader (using this guide) and it went all fine till step 17 (command "fastboot oem unlock-go"), it said i got no permission for unlocking. and now i'm stuck here. the only thing that works is fastboot mode. from there i can switch to adb using the reboot-to-edl-patch, but then i'm stuck again. device-manager shows device as usual (ports COM & LPT) and the red light is blinking, but command "adb devices" replies an empty list. tried "adb kill-server", replugging phone, rebooting computer, still the same.
so what can i do now?
thanks for helping!

The solution is here:
download the required files from the given link: [50mb]
https://mega.nz/#!1NhDTQoR!cP7vrchwswOfj3oHQ5saZ2d0JkcmunEn5pqyOcpZDoE
INSTRUCTIONS: [redmi note 3]
1. Get into fastboot mode. Charge the phone first. Hold the power button and the volume down button simultaenously.
2. If you can open your current rom, open developer options by clicking on the build no several times in the about phone menu in settings. and select allow oem unlocking and usb debugging.
3. if not leave it... go on and connect your phone to the PC while in fastboot mode.
BUT, before that: open Command prompt on your PC. (search it on the search box). right click on it and open it in administrator mode.
type in: bcdedit /set testsigning on
hit enter and restart your pc
(this is imp.)
4. open the zip file and extract the contents. open the boot edl mode folder and click the edl.bat file. allow it to run.
5. now screen will turn black, do not disturb it. Now flash the twrp by running flash twrp.bat from the 'flash TWRP' folder.
6. Now go to Unlock folder and run the unlock bootloader.bat file.
your phone will boot into the TWRP recovery mode automatically.
if it opens in chineese you select every tab and find the globe icon.
if the globe icon is found on any of the tab select it and change the language to ENGLISH.
wipe your system from the wipe tab:
Now download the latest CM13 SNAPSHOT BUILD ROM FOR YOUR REDMI:
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/kenzo-snapshot.zip
and GAPPS:
http://opengapps.org/?api=6.0&variant=mini
do select the arm 64 version and mini one.
download from your pc and copy it to micro sd card. enter this card into you phone and go to mount in twrp.
mount the micro sd card storage.
select the zip file on the micro sd card from the install tab on twrp and flash it.
now go back and flash open gapps zip file.
now REBOOT to system. everything will work fine....
When i was updating the twrp i managed to hard brick my phone, it just shows the 1+ logo and "powered by android" when turned on. if i hold the power button and volume up it shows the cyanogenmod logo and "fastboot mod" and stays there. If i hold power button and volume down it just shows the 1+ logo without the "powered by android".
i followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3272108
completed all the steps but the installed program cant recognise my phone when i plug it in.
When its in fastboot mode logo i can see it in device manager under portable devices listed as "ONE E1001" (it has a yellow ! triangle next to it)
When i try to turn the recovery (powerbutton+volume down) where it shows just the 1+ logo with no "powered by android" i can see it in the device manager under android phone as "Android Bootloader Interface"
When i just turn it on where it does display "powered by android" i can see it same as in fastboot mode, as "ONE E1001" under portable devices, (a yellow ! triangle appears after some time too)
i tried a similar guide here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/tool-oneplusrecovery-tool-v1-0-restore-t2991851
did everything, i have like 5 driver now from all the guides, i think all of them work, i just cant manage to get the programs to realize when the phone is pluged in. Is it possible that something is still wrong with the drivers?
pls help );

You're talking about Cyanogenmod logo. What was on your phone before? What did you do exactly?
Are you sure you know how to use Fastboot?
"fastboot oem device-info" output?
And then explain precisely at what step you have error.

i had CM12 before i tried to upgrade, i managed to go through the entire first guide now, the CM logo isn't appearing anymore, now its the 1+ logo and below it "fastboot mode" the drivers were a problem after all
now im stuck at the new recovery that is installed and cant install the ROM from it, even my old one that i had before all of this (CM12) that i have on my sd card.
OK, so you flash something incompatible.
After CM13 or so, the bootloader have to be upgraded and then you have to use a version compatible with it.
First look with fastboot command I give if BL still unlocked.
Do you know how to use fastboot commands?

kind of, "fastboot oem device-info" output is
(bootloader) Device tampered: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
(bootloader) console_enabled: 0
(bootloader) exec_console_unconsole: 0
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.011s
if i could install the twrp from here i could install the ROM too i think, is there a guide to do so while stuck like this?
"fastboot oem unlock" gives me
FAILED (remote: oem unlock is disabled)
finished. total time: 0.009s
i cant use adb commands, in the command prompt my computer doesent even see the device when i type "adb devices", i think its because oem, debuging, isnt turned on but i cant turn it on if i cant install a ROM and check it "on" in the settings of the androis OS.
all i can use are fastboot comands since my computer can see it as a fastboot device while not as a adb device. i have a bricked phone with a locked bootloader i think.
BL is locked so only solution is mega unbrick guide.
I never tried but oos 3.1.4 won't flash either...

i did the mega unbricked guide, this one ==> https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3272108
i have the recovery dom the guide installed but it cant install any ROMs or the twrp, im trying to install them over fastboot but it also cant be done because my device is locked and i cant flash anything remotely. I also cant use adb for some reason because the command prompt cant see my phone under "adb devices". is there anything i can install with that recovery? i just stuck, spent so much time and still nothing :crying:
i think adb devices dont show because usb debugging is not turned on, i dont know how it can be turned on without and actual operating system on the phone..
THis guide push you back with OnePlus recovery and OOS.
That's not what you have?
You did something wrong...
At which step does it stop?
A few day ago, one of the file ws missing. Do you have it all?

i did all the steps, all of them work, when the program finished downloading/instaling things on my phone it turned on my phone and it was tuck at the 1+ logo again. when i held the power button+volume down it went to the custom recovery that was installed from the program from the guide. that recovery cant do anything i tried to install a new ROM even the twrp but it always says it failed.
i thought the guide was suposed to install a operating system too but it didnt. now i only have the OnePlus recovery (from the guide) and nothing else. When i try to just turn on the phone (just the power button) its stuck in the 1+ logo. power button+volume up gets the 1+ logo and "fastboot mode" below it
the original recovery tool link doesent work so i downloaded the mini version he posted in the comments, this one ==> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087019810
maby the OS didnt come with it???

You have to use the other. This mini tool is from dec 2015.
At last you should have OnePlus recovery + OOS.
Can you retry on an older computer (easier on win 7).
See if it works. At the end, try to fahs the OOS 3.1.4 zip from here :

Hi, thank you for the information, you made my day! I confirm only the official rom can be flashed. Then I could unlock oem / bootloader and install lineageos on my oneplus x.
