Hi,
I have Ls 990 rooted, twrp 2.8 with bump, cloudy rom2.5.
I was trying to get gsm bands working as this is a cdma phone with Sprint.
I was connected to usb, QPST server, and QXDM PRO at the time reading nv values etc.
I stopped working on it for awhile. Then came back. Read some more on my google. I wanted to see what cell connections I was getting related to the band and frequency. So I thought I would go into hidden menu. The phone was still connected to the usb but I don’t think this matters (?). I tapped on “device test”. It says AAT must start. I tap “ok”. The phone reboots but then gets stuck in the lg logo mode. I try to reboot again by holding down the power button to try and get into the hidden menu “mini OS” but it will never come up. I know others have gotten stuck here but the mini OS window pops up allowing them to reboot in “normal mode” but mine never gets there.
So I booted into twrp recovery and did a restore to my recent backup with a reboot but still stuck on lg logo. So I went back and wiped dalvik cache, cache and did a restore of same most recent restore point. Same thing with reboot it gets hung up on the lg logo forever.
I know there is a way to fix this, I just need some help or ideas to try.
Thank you.
Must be a way. Please help.
Thanks.
Solved. Had to do a factory rom flash with lg flash tool. Then stump, twrp bump, supersu, cloudy.
Back to where I was but learned even more now. Need to unlock the bands through QXDM. If there’s someone that’s done this I’d appreciate help.
Thanks.
Ps...interestingly once I rebooted after the factory rom flash the mini os window with AAT opened and allowed me to press power button and select normal reboot. It got hung up on AAT and caused this boot loop. Crazy.

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.
This isn't my first rodeo in the root world and I'm usually more careful when I know I won't have a custom recovery for awhile.
Well after using Stump Root everything was working fine and normal and then I pushed GTA III over to my applications because it wouldn't install.
I got a boot loop on the Sprint Spark animation. Downloaded the tot for zv4 aswell as the dll file. and it runs fine on the LG Restore tool but then boots into MiniOS and shows "Factory Reset 2"
Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? I've looked everywhere for solutions on the G3 and even looked around on the G2 and no solutions.
Steps!
1 Download LG Flash Tool and LG Drivers
2. Download the tot and dll file for your devices.
3. Boot Into Download Mode(Power + Volume up when the LG screen Pops up press those keys again)
4. Open the Command Line and type devmgmt.msc and look for com and switch your G3 to port to 41.
5. Open LG Flash Tool and Put your dll and tot files in and use Board DL not Update DL(Very Important or you'll boot into MiniOS with a "Factory Reset Status 2" screen.
6. Start the tool with your phone plugged in. when It says ready unplug and replug your phone in. It'll run for awhile
7. It should boot into MiniOS just hit ok. Push power button plus touch the screen where it says Normal boot+(power)
8. Profit???
Where can i download the tot file sir i saw one but the link is dead

My wife was using her phone (completely stock, no mods whatsoever) and it started shutting down processes (contacts, calendar, etc). She held the power button down to manually shutdown and then rebooted shortly after. The next day, it started to do it again, so she did the same thing only this time it stuck on the "M" logo screen. When she brought it home, I held the power & vol down buttons in for 2 minutes and the phone began to reboot but still stuck on the "M" logo screen.
I began searching vigorously online for a solution and have tried everything. **NOTE** - I am completely unsure what version of software the phone was running before this happened. The first thing I tried was RSD Lite with the JB Stock file from Team US Cellular. The flashing fails during certain lines of the .XML file. I took suggestions from other users to delete the lines it fails on and let the file continue the flash. Once it reboots, it is still stuck on the "M" logo screen. I then tried all the other stock firmware files I could and the same result each time.
Next, I tried using ADB and Fastboot tools. My PC recognizes the phone when plugged in and running command "adb devices" shows the phone listed, but whenever I try to run a pull or other command, I get error:closed. I've tried all the solutions of making sure ADB files are updated, running the list of commands to get the daemon connection reset, etc. I can't push/pull anything using adb. I tried using mFastboot with no luck either.
I tried the above steps over and over for 3 days straight, hoping I missed something simple. My final option was to boot into Recovery Mode and run Wipe Data/Factory Reset. When I select that option, about 3 lines of command begin to run and the phone reboots and goes back to being stuck on the "M" logo screen. The command lines and reboot literally happen within 2 seconds. That tells me Factory Reset is corrupted, but I'm not 100% at this point.
Does anyone have any insight on if there is anything I can do at this point? It wouldn't be such a big deal to lose the phone, but we have pics/videos of our 2 year old that we never got backed up at home or in the cloud and they're very important to us. Unfortunately, the phone did not have and SD card. I'm honestly out of ideas at this point and have never felt so defeated.
I got brave and decided to just unlock the phone and attempt to install TWRP on it and that doesn't even work. It says it flashed it, but whenever I choose Recovery, it never boots to TWRP. It continues to use the stock recovery screen. I'm assuming this thing is just completely done for?
I did the infamous update to Android 12 yesterday and this morning tinkering with the new settings I accidentally blocked myself out of my phone.
Before testing yourself I want to give a warning to not you bother to try this setting on, just in case the same thing happens to any of you: it was a setting called "Quickly unlock screen without password" or something like that, it was in Settings > Privacy & Security > Lock screen Password. If anyone that still has the Android 12 update installed would be so kind to share some screenshots of those steps I could tell right away which option was the one I activated, since I can't even access my phone anymore...
Don't know why, but it seems that with this option the system just tries to fill the password but it always fails and it just keeps vibrating forever and can't do anything at all. The only time it stops is after rebooting into the SIM unlock prompt, but after unlocking the SIM it starts vibrating again and can't even input my password.
After this now I'm trying to recover all my stuff from my phone before doing a factory reset, which seem inevitable at this point. I have tried to access mass storage from Recovery Menu but it doesn't seem to be recognized by my PC. I have seen that OnePlus devices have different recovery menus, this one has a menu with four options (Format data, Reboot device, Power off and Advanced) and at the bottom it says "Ver 1.2", which tapping on it twice gives a message telling to go into Download Mode, but it doesn't seem to do anything aside from rebooting.
Also tried to go into Fastboot from the recovery menu (Advanced > Reboot into Fastboot mode) but it just shuts down instantly after the Fastboot logo shows up.
So, please, could anyone give some advice here? I'm pretty much lost at this point and I don't want to factory reset right away just yet. Any help will be appreciated.
are you able to fix your phone?
