Had this phone for a while rooted it and everything was fine, then after replacing the phone i gave it away to a friend. Weeks later my friend asks for help saying it just sits on the AT&T logo, i take it and fiddle with it for a while.
My problems are
1.Wont boot past first splash screen.
2. Wont go into hboot if i try one of two things happens
1. If a sd card is in it a screen saying Firmware update Step 1/2 Unpacking then at the bottom it says update failed and sits on this screen.
2. If no sd card is in it will display a bright pink screen and just sit there
It was rooted
I have no idea what my friend did but suspect he isnt the culprit
different sd cards do not change anything
I have exhausted my knowledge about android and would like any advice.
Hello
E recently bought an LG Optimus Black (P970). It had stock rom 4.0.4 and the guy told me that it has CWM recovery on it, but i never tried.
It was working well, but one day it started to freeze quite often. One day i inserted another sim card than the one i was using before and it freezed. Restarted the phone but it froze again. The third time it didn't even boot, but instead the green android appeared with his belly open and the exclamation mark hanging out of it.
I tried a factory reset, but the process lasted more than 15 minutes so i turned off the phone.
Since then, when the phone starts the following happens: LG logo appears, Android guy appears with the loading sign in his belly and after 3 seconds the lg logo again.
I was able to access the SWUpdate menu and to flash a stock ROM with LG MobileSupportTool. When the update process ended with success, the phone should have restarted itself but it didn't. Instead the lg logo appeared again.
Trough the SWUpdate menu i managed to flash other stock ROMs on it with the SmartFlashTool but the same thing happened as before. (Successful flash, but the phone didn't restart. I even managed to flash a ROM on the device which had CWM recovery patched to it.
After this i created myself a 3in1 service cable with 56kohm,130kohm,910kohm resistors. I managed to access the SWUpdate menu with it, so i knew the cable was good. But i couldn't read from the device with CDMA tool. CDMA made the connection, but couldn't read.
I took the phone to the service, but they told me that the phone didn't respond to the JTAG either. They assumed that the motherboard is broken.
I didn't make peace with the idea that the motherboard is broken. I need help. Currently my only option is the take the phone to another service and hope that they are more capable than the previous ones.
Thank you in advance.
I used this guide to install CWM to my phone, the phone was already rooted successfully. I used the following guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486512
Before the first rom flash the system description said the phone was a P705g and the phone itself has it marked as a P708g. I saw this as no consequence and carried on.
*** UPDATE***
So the sticker behind the battery marks the phone as P705g, the plastic case just said P708g. Guess they just didnt want to waste plastic at the company
As soon as I unlocked my bootloader the phone started turning off after 2-3 mins of use. I was able to flash CM10 nightly successfully and it worked, aside the turning off. I thought it might be a problem with CWM so I switched over to TWRP. I installed it through CWM, but to no avail. Still having the same problem. And I yes I wiped cache/dalvik.
After the phone dies it restarts and keeps loading the cyanogenmod load screen, until it eventually restarts again. This happens infinitely.
I have phone now that needs to have the battery popped everytime I want it to load. That would have been ok but it keeps turning off...
Guys I need help! Currently a student and money is scarce so buying a new phone is out of the question for some time.
Thanks for the help :laugh:
Hello,
The other day I finally found a way to root my Quanta Verizon Ellipsis 8 tablet QTAQZ3 with KingRoot. It was working great for about 3-4 days. I was finally able to use apps like Apps2SD to install my games and large apps on the SD card, use chainfire3D and the like and some other useful apps that actually worked to shutdown processes I didn't want running in the background to clear up a good 300MB of extra ram. It was working great.
The day before yesterday however I was routinely using the tablet and it was in the middle of loading Fifa16. Suddenly the tablet shutitself down and rebooted all on its own. When it rebooted however it only brought up the Android Splash screen for a few seconds, after that it goes to a blank Back-Lit screen(so I know its still on) and just sits there. I have left it there for 6 hours+ hoping it would eventually miraculously boot but it just sits there until the power button is held down to shut it off.
Now since I get it to power up and show the android splash screen and also access the recovery mode by holding PowerButton+Volume down I am hoping/assuming it is only softbricked.
I have tried to putting a new Rom.zip on the SD card and accessing "Update from external storage" in recovery mode, but I keep getting Permission Denied. I have tried burning a Rom image to the sd card to try to boot from it but nothing happens. I have tried Factory Reset in the recovery mode and it does basically nothing other than delete my user data. Upon reboot the same problem persists.
ADB doesnt seem to be an option because I can only get windows to install a Generic MTP Device driver(it does show up as the model number of the device properly QTAQZ3 though) but thats all it will do. Doesnt show up in drive list to access anything, cant install adb driver because it doesnt detect the device. I have tried forcing adb driver install but it just tells me the proper driver is already installed.
I am hoping somebody might be able to help me solve the ADB driver issue so I can sideload a new rom/bootloader to the device or help me figure why it keeps saying Permission Denied when trying to update .zip from my sd card.
Please help, thanks you.

same happened to me with kingo root on the QTAQ73 model
Any new development on this? I have the same issue except mine stays on the boot animation until the power runs dead or I shut it off.
Update - I ended up taking the tablet to Verizon and luckily I still had a week left of my warranty. Sent it in Monday got one sent back Saturday running Android 5.1.1 and rooted it with KingRoot. Working on swapping King with SuperSu but that's how I got it stuck in bootloop last time so I'm a bit cautious.

I also have this problem. ellipsis 8 QTAQZ3 won't boot past the Verizon screen. Repair center wouldn't do anything for me, even though it's a software issue, because I'm outside of warranty time. Verizon sucks.
All the intelligent people tinkering with droid tablets and no one has an answer on this? I've looked everywhere.
Hello guys, i realize this is an older thread but the other day i soft bricked my Quanta Ellipsis 8 QTAQZ3... Can someone help me out with a stock rom for reflashing? Willing to donate for your support! Thank you!
I have a QTAQZ3 currently running 4.2.2. I captured the OTA url and downloaded an update bin file. I'm not exactly sure how bins compare to flashable zips, nor do I know what to do with a bin file. I am hoping that by posting it, someone with the right know-how can help us fix all these bricked tablets.

Hi all.
I'm wondering if anyone has a viable workaround for the pile of bloatware on the QTAQZ3, I was gifted on a few years ago and it is telling me that it is running out of room. The math for the misc junk file doesn't add up. Display counts 5.2 GB, and clicking the line often shows less than 3 MB.
Hello,
Recently I bought a new WileyFox Swift Plus 2 four months ago. Eveything was going smoothly until two weeks ago after I updated to
Cyanogen 13. Today I was on SnapChat and I received a call. I answered it and my phone shut off when I tried to switch it back on it was stuck in a loading loop of CyanogenMod. I want to factory reset this but don't want to lose my files. I checked the state of the phone on fastboot and it says that the state of my phone is locked.
): I can't understand why I got locked out of my own phone and why It won't run at all. Sometimes it shows the starting apps sign but it never loads and returns to a loop of CyanogenMod. The finger sensor unresponsive.
How can I fix this? I really need my phone because it's important to me. I would factory reset it but there's a lot of precious memories and pictures on it that I don't want to delete.
Please help me ):
Thank you very much.
