decided to play around with cleaning up the bloatware and Sprint installed junk on my Alcutel one touch pixi 3 (7) 4G 9007T tablet running originally android 5.1.1 , and ended up soft bricked stuck in a loop cycle of optimizing/staring apps, have scoured XDA and every other resource i have seen and for every device but this one there seems to be a fix, a stock rom, etc ,... one good thing is i am able to factory reset to at least enable debugging for adb access (though fastboot wont detect it) and hence cant get the device into a fastboot mode or unlock the loader.
Is there any compatible roms or recoveries out there for this particular device
Recovery <3e> Android L(not sure how to get a recovery log dump for providing more info)
I used nobloat app from google play had things pretty well cleaned up but thought to see how far i could go and i used the backup function in the app, but evidently i deleted something I shouldn't have and of course after trying a factory reset the nobloat backup would be gone even if i could get botted back up)
after recovery I do get through the initial setup, wifi, google account login etc,.. (using safe-mode) but if i use google backup files it gets to the loop fast, so i try to skip all that being restored, and am able to get to the settings to enable developer mode /debugging mode but once I exit that its a blank screen outside the clock showing then it reboots and keeps in the above mentioned loop.
(as i mentioned adb detects the device but fastboot won't it just stuck on "waiting for any device"

I have re-flashed the phone with a stock version (I never did any flashing/rooting before this, but have on a previous phone so I know how). I would just factory reset, but I NEED the videos I recorded today. Is there a way to pull files without booting (I can get recovery and download modes, no option is available for mounting the USB connection like I have read about). It is not in developer mode, and I don't think it would matter if it was because I can't boot past app loading (to my belief). When I flashed the device, it loaded and started "upgrading android" upon completion is said starting apps and then rebooted. If I can't pull files can I remove 3rd party apps.
Hello,
I own an Android tablet KO PARA1 FULL and experiencing a strange problem. This is a chinese atm7029 quadcore tablet (16gb, 1gb ram, without bluetooth, only wifi, bu supports 3g dongle), running android 4.1.1 nad 3.4.0+ kernel, which came prerooted. After some time I've decided to install backup programs on in to make a full backup of the device for the case something would go wrong, and after some trying I descovered, that there is something like recovery for that purposes which seemed a good solution for me. I decided to install CWM, which I managed to install without problems and made some backups on my device. Everything was fine, I did some factory resets through the time, some restoring processes from my previously backup states of the device, was always able to activate CWM recovery menu through Reboot to recovery or through combination of Volume down a Power button...
Until last saturday. I was normaly surfing the internet, reading mails and afterwords I powered my tablet off (it is draining battery in sleep mode, but its another story..). After a while wanted again to write a mail, so I powered it on. In that momet seemed the screen too dirty for me and I tried to cleen it little bit throug the bootup process. Unfortunately I obvious confused the system with it and after boot it was not responding properly. I did not wait enough and after a while powered it off with power key pressed for a long time, to make a new boot.
But when I powered it on again, it stayed stuck in boot logo and did not boot at all. I've tried a copple of times to boot it again with no cuccess, stayed stuck in boot logo for more then 10 min...
Afterwards I decided to make it boot up with the help of computer. I downloaded adb and drivers and somehow managed to make it boot up. I thing I was too excited to see it boot up again, that during boot up process I desconected my device from computer...
My worries were reliesed and I thought it would be a good idea to make a restore from backup to prevent some strange behaviour, so wanted to boot into recovery, but nothing had happened. After some repeated clicks on Boot into recovery button, as well as app called rebooter with nothing happening, I decided to try it out through button combination. It has not worked as well Next try was to reset to factory settings. But when I go through the menu, I can click on reset to factory settings button, seeing warning that I will lost ma data, then I can push the button to make it happen, but nothing is happening. I see only the screen with the button, can touch it 100 times and the tablet stays on, fully funcional. making no factory reset as it done before.
I did a lot of reading and searching, but have not find answer for my problem. I flashed recovery images from my backups (using flashify, flash gordon, adb shell, terminal emulator), from all previously functional states of the device. I refleshed the CWM recovery downloaded from the internet for my chipset, which previously did the job just perfect, with no success...
I am still not able to reach recovery menu. For me it seems like the bootloader would be locked, but I did not find the answer how to unlock it without to be able to start in some recovery state to use fastboot command to unlock it.
Otherwise, my device is functional, still rooted, i can use it without any other problems. But not be able to do recovery from my backups, even do a factory reset.
How can I restore my access to recovery mode? Is it somehow possible?
Hopfully it is not too much information (tryied to follow the intructions and wrote everything I thought would be important to know about) and you will not be bothered to read all my story and pull me out of my darkness with helpfull suggestion.
Thanks a lot in advance
Steve
LG Escape running 4.1.2
here is the progression of events:
1. rooted device
2. root seemed successful and no malfunctions
3. backed up all apps and system data with Titanium backup
4. the lg escape has no way to unlock the bootloader, so I tried various other methods. one of which was entering recovery mode via terminal commands. this is basically a hard reset, and it wiped all my data
5. I restored all my apps and data from my external sd card with titanium
My best guess is this is where something went wrong
6. upon restoration it prompted me to reboot the device
7. reboot passes manufacturer logo, but resets when AT$T logo appears
8. as stated earlier, there is no way to enter recovery mode during boot.
9. there is a hard reset during boot, but mine will not work, as it requires touching buttons which do not seem to be active in my stage of the boot sequence
so, I understand this does NOT mean my phone is bricked, but I don't know how else to get it to boot back up, or what is even causing the boot loop, as I DO NOT HAVE ANY CUSTOM ROMS flashed. any help here is very appreciated!
EDIT: so I have attempted to use adb on my pc to reboot into recovery from there, but it occurred to me that while I was in recovery the first time, I never checked "usb debugging". as a result my adb console commands cant even see my device. any way to turn on usb debugging while locked in a boot loop?
also, I can get it to enter download mode. I was hoping I could just reflash the firmware to it without needing to enable usb debugging, but have no clue how to do that while locked out of the phone.
I realize this is a very specialized set of questions, but it is necessary to ask here as the most people will see it. im open to any ideas

i have now tried to flash the firmware while in download mode using a less than legitimately obtained lg R&D tool. however, i need V10F_00.kdz and i am facing a bit of censorship. any kind soul willing to host this file on dropbox or similar so i can download it?
Usually devices have a button combination to press when powering on to get into different modes. Maybe try searching for the button combination of your phone on Google? Try ' lg escape button recovery ' ?

believe me i have. the only combo i can get to is download mode. there is a combo for a hard reset, but my touch buttons arent active during boot.
To start off, I suffered, what seems to be a common problem, of the fingerprint unlock on Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge randomly being unable to recognise my fingerprint. Followed by my back-up password not being accepted. Unfortunately, I turned off my data and wifi before the phone locked so the problem doesn't seem to be able to resolve itself unless I Factory Reset the phone.
This i am happy to do as long as I can find some way to retrieve the media files from the phone (just pictures and videos). I read up and watched some videos where some people were able to use ADB through Recovery Mode or Field Test mode, and pull the files from the phone. These people however were using older models of Android phones but I decided to read numerous pages etc and go ahead and try.
I set up everything (I believe) i needed on my Mac Book pro in order to use the Adb Terminal. However when I tried to connect my phone Adb couldn't detect my device. I then decided (after reading somewhere to do so) to press "Apply update using ADB" on the Recovery menu. Again, Adb did not detect my device.
i left this screen up on my phone which resulted in "dm-verity verification failed..." appearing at the bottom of the screen. It then switched back to the Recovery menu and continues to show "dm-verity verification failed..." at the base of the screen. Now when I try and power up the phone normally, the start up screen just repeatedly flashes and it goes no further than that.
Im not completely brain dead when it comes to this stuff but I obviously don't fully understand what I am doing, So Im wondering if there is a genius out there who, even after what I've done, can help me pull the files from my phone before I have to Factory Reset!
The problem is, that you don't have the ability to use adb pull through the stock recovery. This kind of thing can only be done via a custom recovery like TWRP, CWM, or Philz. Now that it's not booting, pretty much the only thing to try is to install a custom recovery and boot directly into it before it tries to restart. Make sure you find one for the correct variant of your phone. If yours is a VZW or ATT version, you're in trouble because they don't have custom recoveries like that for them.
Hi All,
Id like to start out by stating that I am newb when it comes to android recovery
My V10 was stuck on LG screen with the infamous bootloop issue. I was able to get it to a point where the phone would boot after performing the mobo bake option. The phone booted just fine. I was hoping to create a nandroid backup in an effort to install image backup on a replacement phone that I received. This phone was rooted but did not have any custom recovery installed. I read in some article, that one could use an app called Quick Book [Root] from Play Store, which I downloaded and installed. Shortly after that, I pulled up the menu and selected to restart in quick boot recovery menu. It was taking quite some time, so I figured it was likely stuck doing nothing. Right as I was holding down the power option down, I noted the little android logo pop up and close out.
Upon starting the phone back up, it was stating that it was optimizing 200+ apps and then got in to a loop with the LG setup wizard 'Unfortunately, LGSetupWizard has stopped'. I was able to pull up the menu from top to bottom and get in to settings page. When I go to Application Manager, it is showing that there are no downloaded apps, etc as if the phone was wiped.
I guess my question is, is there anyway to get this back to the state is was in before the installation of this Quick Boot application? Any help would be appreciated.
Things to note:
Tried clearing cache and it had no effect
Phone is currently on 5.1.1
Can get the phone in to debugging mode
I have a titanium backup on installed sd card from g0d knows when
Under storage, it shows about 13gb of misc data (not sure if normal or showing that much as part of the issue)
Thanks
G
