[HELP] Hardbricked phone - LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers

Hello, i need help, i tried everything but nothing seems to work. I tried to crossflash a TM version but i believe that i did something wrong and deleted a partition. When i tried to go from EDL to download mode it simple became unresponsive, the screen doesn't show anything but it can be connected to 9008 and is detected by qfil. On qfil when i try to open the partition manager, it never opens, just says that is working. I cannot hard or soft reset it. and when i try to flash it wit lgup isnt detected and is telling that there is no handset connected
Please help, i dont know what to do now.
Edit:
I'll try to explain me better.
The phone doesn't turn on but is detected on QFIL.
Buttons doesn't seem to work,i mean, they work but i cannot turn it on or go to the recovery mode.
When im in QFIL and i try to use the partition manager the partition manager window never pop up.

i managet to be able to open the partition manager, but i don't know what to do now ): i loaded the img of the files that i backed but still nothing

It seems as, if you not only deleted a partition, but possibly the entire flash. this has happened to a few here, because the corresponding command is placed in the wrong place in Partition Manager (when opening a single partition).
Which partiton should it have been that you supposedly deleted?
If that was really the case, then without an existing full backup you have a bigger problem...

you can restore full backup but you will have problem with imei its hard to fix

You should wait until your phone is complete discharged. Then try again to initialize the EDL-Mode and to get in Partition-Manager. If you don't become Partition-Infos, then you can be sure, your Partition-Table is defect (or deleted).

i finally can enter into the partition manager after a lot of attempts

Have you extracted partitions from kdz by your Hand, to Flash them in Partition Manager?

Attention: Before you Flash partitions, make Backups from then (Read Data Partition)!
And, don't Flash FTM

That seems good, what i now see...
You should now try to reach Dl-Mode again

i cant get into edl, or at least it doesnt seem to work ):

You cant get into edl-mode or you cant get into DL-mode?

If you are in Partition Manager, then you are in edl-mode

download mode, sorry

Ok, then you must try to flash some lun0 partitions from your kdz (except ftm).
Then retry to get in Download-Mode...

nothing
my phone still doesnt show any image on the screen
so i guide myself with the sound that makes windows when you connect a new device
i flashed the files and closed qfil,
after that i hold power and vol- until i hear the sound of windows telling me that the devices is disconnected.
after that i hold power and vol+ i hear the windows connecting to the device but it seems that doesnt enter into download mode, i check with lgup and there is no devices.
i check in qfil and is there

tried both ways
i hold power and vol- , when i hear the sound of disconnection i stop and disconnect the usb, then immediately i press vol+ and connect again the usb and nothing happens.

I think we need some files from a full backup now.
Do you have a cloud somewhere where I could possibly store a few files?

**UPDATE**
For future references this is the status right now.
@kingilein Have been helping me all this time with my phone.
What we tried?
We tried flashing some boot partitions to try to make the phone able to enter download mode.
After the flash the phone disconnected from edl mode and died (no response) no edl mode, no boot, nothing is super bricked now.
The phone battery was almost full so now we are waiting to let it drain to try to enter edl mode again.
What i'm doing now?
Every hour or so i try to turn it on holding power button for a minute or so.
2 mins later i take the phone and hold power + vol- for a minute or so.
Sometimes i pick the phone and hold power + vol- while i fast tap vol+ for 5 minutes.
Every 3-4 hours i do the same with the phone connected to the pc.
i tried different ports, and different cables.
i don't know if the phone battery is drained atm.
but i tried putting it in a wireless charger and the wireless charger is showing that the phone is charging so it can be charged.

[Q] Vibrant Bricked? Can't Find Solution [SOLVED]

So this phone has been sitting in my closet for over a month and want to try and find a way to get it back to working. I am pretty sure it happened flashing a euro ROM and it not recovering or I re-partitioned a 2.2 odin ROM (can't remember). I have tried every trick posted on this forum with no luck. Here is the way it boots the second I connect the USB to the phone and/or when trying to do the volume up/down and power button. I can access the phone view adb and tell it to reboot download, but just goes right back to recovery. I even tried pushing the update.zip but no luck as it can't mount e:/.....

Now I remember a link to a Youtube video that actually fixed the vibrant I have now and for the life of me can't find the link. He did something different that the other 10002831 videos showing how to access download mode.
Anybody have advice or is this one truly BRICKED??
This is what un-bricked my Vibrant.

Problem is it won't go into download mode.... the second the USB is plugged into the phone it boots into recovery.... I see the battery symbol for maybe a split second and it goes right into recovery; doesn't require any buttons to be pushed.
adb reboot download = reboots into recovery...
Have you tried reinstall packages and then trying to get into download mode?

I had a similar problem once. Here's what worked for me:
Take your battery out
Plug in USB cable
Hold both volume buttons
Put battery back in (while still holding the volume buttons)
I'm pretty sure that was it, but if not try fiddling with those steps a bit. The gist is that you should be holding the volume buttons when the battery goes in, which gets the phone into download mode right away.
Had a similar problem and that seemed to clear it up.

I have tried for a good five hours combined over a two day period and have come to the conclusion the buttons don't do much. The only thing I do know is the up and down are no reversed...
The only thing I don't get is some instructions say to hold the vol down, home, and power. I assume that is only for the EU versions as the home button on the vibrant is a soft key.

can't reinstall packages when the phone doesn't see the sdcard.....
I just wish I could find that youtube video as they guy had a special way to getting into download mode that was different than any other one on the internet.

Nada... just boots straight to recovery
The only way that i was able to get into download mode was to hold just volume down and power while the phone was off.
So pull battery.
Install battery.
Hold Volume down+Power button.
Then connect usb.
Or you can try to hold volume down+power button+plug in usb at the same time.
I tried every other way of getting into download mode but none worked.
Hope this some how helps you.
So, as long as the USB is plug in, the phone immediate enter recovery? Even when the phone was originally off, then the USB is plugged in later?

Yes, the second the USB is connected it goes straight to that screen in the OP. I don't have the opportunity to hold the vol up/down as it boots instantly (and holding them prior to connecting the USB ends in the same recovery screen)....
I have since bought a new Vibrant but would like to get this one working so it can be sold....
Well I actually FIXED this phone!!!! I followed the below instructions in the past but failed to read it completely...... You must following step 4 to the tee and not press the re-install packages until you are constantly forcing the push from ADB. Needless to say it pushed the update file and then I removed the battery and instantly got into download mode and flashed back to stock.
DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
You need the Samsung USB driver and you can get it from Here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929
First Part
1. Download update.zip from the link below. This was post by another member.
The post is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804305
2. Place the update.zip in tools folder so you can push it into your phone by using adb command
3. Plug usb into the phone and your phone should be on the Android system recovery <2e>
4. Use your volume button to select reinstall package, don't press power button yet.
5. constant "adb push update.zip /sdcard" from computer , you will get permission denied.
6. While you are constantly pushing the adb command from computer. press the power button on the phone so it install update.zip from sdcard.
7. This is the part where it force adb push into sdcard without permission
8. once the update.zip install completed. unplug the usb cable from the phone and take the battery out.
9. put the battery back to the phone then press on both volume button.
10. While holding both volume button , plug in your usb cable and it will boot to download screen.
If you need use Odin to flash your phone to original stock rom. Go to the Second Part
5. constant "adb push update.zip /sdcard" from computer , you will get permission denied..... not sure what you mean by that thx
Try taking out the sim card while entering download mode, that's what did it for me, and don't make any odd facial expressions and keep a good posture. Gremlins...
Is your phone Loki? Use Odin. You'll be Thor!

How can I recover a bricked phone?

I bricked my phone, and I can't do anything with it. when I try to turn off the phone with power+vol up or when I try to turn it on then nothing happens. When I connect it to pc via usb cable then just the pc recognizes that I plugged in an usb device but it says it's unknown. I can't get into flashmode. I have my bootloader locked. My phone is a Xperia Z2.
now when I connect it to pc via usb cable it writes:
15/058/2015 12:58:31 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off
15/058/2015 12:58:31 - INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode

That is not bricked... Learn how to use Flashtool, this is just a normal message that the phone is connected.
What is a bricked phone?
A bricked phone does NOT vibrate or show anything on a screen (useless as a brick). If you can boot up, then your phone is soft-bricked.
Boot into fastboot mode
Turn off your phone, hold the "up" button and start the phone. Do that until you see "Device connected in Fastboot mode". Now you can flash a kernel. And you should really work on your post quality. You haven't even told us which phone you have.

I know how to use flashtool, and by your definitions, my device is bricked, and I have told you that my device is a Xperia Z2
First step: Make sure your phone is REALLY turned off, I mean completely. A blank screen doesn't mean it is off. Open the USB/ micro SIM flap and carefully press the little red button until it vibrates 3 times. That will do.

Then repair it by Flashtool or PC Companion. If you use Flahstool please select all the 3 wipes, and No final verification and Reset customizations for a clean install and less chance of a bootloop.

yeah, I know that and I have tried to press the red button, but it didn't vibrate. I also tried to press the power + vol up button for many hours with rubber bands, but it didn't work. That's why I think it's a hard brick

I had a very bad experience with an SP (C5303), almost brand new and phone was like a hard brick...turns out it was on a zombie state eating the battery; so when I found out the phone was unresponsive the battery was completely dead so Flashtool couldn't connect. Then I proceed to let the phone charging overnight and then it turned on like nothing never happened.

There is one important information missing, what did you do that bricked your phone? Unless you really messed up your bootloader or TA partition you should be able to recover with flashtool. Most of the times flashtool fails it's a problem on your pc...check if correct drivers are installed, remove android emulators if you have any (andy, bluestacks) as they conflit with flashtool sometimes.
Very Best solution for this is when you connect your Phone to PC and start PC Companion, there is option repair Phone. It's download the correct version and instal on the Phone then all Working fine even when you have bricked Phone.
I do that more than once and It's working

Try this.
1. Open up Odin in your PC, make sure you got the USB drivers installed too.
2. Connect your phone with the cable.
3. Hold Vol Down + Power, to cold reboot.
4. As soon as it reboots, QUICKLU HOLD Vol Down + Bixby + Power button.
I've locked myself on the Kernel issue when changing CSC, and found out that this was the only way i could get in to Download Mode. It wont go inside if the cable is not connected to the PC and Odin isn't up.
It can be tricky to find that perfect moment for pressing the buttons, so dont give up easily.
If you notice no luck, Repeat the same process, but make the cable ready but dont connect it, cold-reboot and as soon as it reboots, connect the cable and do the download mode button layout.

Any help out there
Can't you just flash official rom from the screen you show in the first post? It doesn't necessarily need to boot into proper download mode to flash official rom. I mean your phone cannot boot into download mode, so just try to flash the rom from the screen.
hello everyone, i have a technical question. is it possible to root lineage 18.1 (android 11) only by operating on a working system ?? (something like kingoroot) ... after gaining root, you can access the partition and load recovery again ....
I am probably the first victim of uploading this fake software, after analyzing the rom on the telegram (exynos 9810), wise heads said that after uploading the software, the lack of recovery and the download mode is a deliberate action of the perpetrator. so I think root can help, I remember that I performed a similar operation when I could not connect the tablet galaxy tab 2 to the pc, then root and upload the recovery from a working android ....

Boot loop - Can't power off, no recovery, won't boot

Hello,
I've got a Realme 7. Tried to update a ROM, something happened, lost recovery, not it's boot looping.
I understand what I need to do - Reflash stock rom and recovery.
However, I can't get my phone to power off, I can't get the USB filters installed, I can't do anything...
Holding power does nothing, holding vol + and power does nothing...It just keeps looping back to the realme logo.
I assume, if I can get it powered off, I can then hold volume up and down to get libusb to recognize it and then go from there. However, I'm at a loss...
Thanks.

Open the USB filters wizard, and pay attention when the device is trying to boot, you could install it, see which item is added. To completely power off the device, you just have to press the three buttons simultaneously.

In the short time it is going to blank screen it is power off, then immediately it is trying to boot, I faced the same a lot of times. A variant, pressing vol up + PWR also device gets off, when device is trying to boot, tap on the item newly added and install it, open firstly the libUSB wizard and keep it open, and visible to you.
Yeah, I can't get it. Doesn't seem to detect that the phone is connected to my computer at all. Nothing shows up in the USB filters...Doesn't seem to matter when I press volume up and down throughout the process...
Can't seem to do anything. Just looping...Ugh - I guess I'm out of luck?

Install all the previous drivers needed.
Also you have this tool to flash recovery and see from there https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient
To get it work you don´t need the LibUSB32, you have to find the short time device is trying to reboot to press the volume buttons to connect to the tool.

OK, looking at MTK Client - Can't seem to get it to run in a GUI...No idea how to flash anything in it...This is beyond my pay grade...Hah

Well, man, you need to follow instructions to get it to work properly, anyway if you already installed properly the UsbDK 64 then you can invoke the graphical interface, typing in a CMD (open in this path) python mtk_gui
Yeah, I've followed the instructions, and a YouTube tutorial - I have everything installed. However, I'm not getting the gui...
Thanks for the help by the way. Getting there...

Open a terminal in the same mtk-client main directory and type python mtk_gui or directly through the command line, use python mtk w recovery drag&drop your image

OK, phone is dead now...Hah - Time to do some more research.
I assume that once I get it loaded up in MTK Client I can just flash recovery.img from the stock rom?
Or do I need to flash something else completely?

No, it's not dead, I had bricked my device even in a state of no signal of life at all, but I have completely working now, just I lost IMEI cause a bad flashing and back up gone.
You should start by flashing only the stock recovery, so you can try to flash an ozip from there, be sure your device has some charge now and check all the drivers you have installed.
Open device manager in Windows, and connect your PC while you are pressing buttons and so, and check how it is listed there.
This is preloader mode:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

OK, I will check the drivers. MTK Client can't see it - So there must be something wrong with the drivers...

Hello,
I've got a Realme 7. Tried to update a ROM, something happened, lost recovery, not it's boot looping.
I understand what I need to do - Reflash stock rom and recovery.
However, I can't get my phone to power off, I can't get the USB filters installed, I can't do anything...
Holding power does nothing, holding vol + and power does nothing...It just keeps looping back to the realme logo.
I assume, if I can get it powered off, I can then hold volume up and down to get libusb to recognize it and then go from there. However, I'm at a loss...
Thanks.

hold volume + and power button for while, as soon as the screen turns off leave the button. your phone will successfully turn off. and to solve the problem. you need to download the official firmware which have scatter file and Remember to backup your NV data OR any NV RAM before flashing or you will loose IMEI number because of which many people are facing IMEI problem including me.. So after backup Flash the firmware with format all or re-partition and will successfully boot up. remember to restore NV DATA/NV RAM. you can use unlock tool to flash the firmware.
Same problem here... I change my Chinese GT2 Pro to Global, everythings fine, but when I tried to lock the bootloader a message apears saying the flash was broken or something and now it keeps flashing the "realme Powered by android" for 0,5 a sec and rebooting again and again and again... can't do absolute nothing...

hey, tazz, have you solved the problem yet? i'm currently on the same predicament as you are, just on a C12 instead of a 7.
Any one could recovery the phone after this problem? Seems that this problem is common, but I do not find any one that tells that fixed it and how did it...

Recover from what? There are many users including me that recovered the 99% of its functionalities. If you are referring to the IMEI, then, yes, and not, it´s not possible by any tools that available for end users, but it can be done through specialized hardware tools.

Recover that:
Bash:
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot.exe flash recovery corrupted_recovery.img
fastboot.exe flash vbmeta corrupted_vbmeta.img
fastboot.exe boot corrupted_recovery.img
After this, the phone is on boot looping, and because the looping, the usb is reconfiguring all the time (I was unable to get time enough to connect using adb or fastboot)
EDIT: I forgot to mention that the physical buttons does not respond after this procedure. I'm unable to use power; power+down; power+up...

Just search in the forum, there is not a guide all-in-one, but everything you need is here.
From unlock the bootloader, either officially or unofficially, using mtk-client, updating the drivers through Lib-USB, device filter, flashing every partition using the same tool or SP Flash tool.
Just a side note, Physical button don´t have to do with software issues, device not entering to a specific mode, is not because physical buttons are supposedly, not responding, but this stage is missing or unavailable. There are many posts and guides about unbricking this device, just search thoroughly through the forum.

Question Boot loop/no response to recovery menu

Hi
My G9 Power is stock ROM and is just over 2 years old, It's running fairly standard stuff and isn't rooted. . Last night I was responding to a message when it shut down. It had plenty of charge, at least 60%.
Rebooting it just results in the boot looping - splash screen for a few minutes, then blank, then restart. I deliberately left it doing that all night to exhaust the battery, which happened earlier.
It is recognising a cable is plugged in but my memory tells me that a light comes on the say it's charging, which isn't happening now - but that may be because of the stage it's in in booting (though it doesn't come on when the phone is off either). There is no haptic feedback when I plug in the cable, or sound.
So while I'm no expert I have previously replaced ROMs on an old phone, so I thought of Recovery. I can get to the menu which includes recovery, which is headed (in red bold) AP Fastboot Flash mode (Secure). The options are Restart, Bootloader, Barcodes, Recovery and Start. Barcode shows me barcodes and start goes back into the loop but Recovery doesn't do anything at all.
How can I get round this as I can't use ADP unless it's in the recovery menu can I?
Or is it dead, terminally?
Any ideas appreciated...)

Your best bet might be to follow Post #3 in this thread. You will likely lose anything that wasn't backed up. But it might be useful in salvaging your phone.
Instead of the link in that thread, you probably need the newest firmware from this: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/cebu/official/RETGB/ (I'm guessing you're in the UK, based on your username and the spelling of "recognising"). Extract the file and then run the commands from the first link.
You will need to have platform-tools installed.
Hope it helps.

no, always take the flash commands out of flashfile.xml from insode the firmware zip.
@GeoffUK That would be my advice, too. Download the firmware and flash it. A bootloop is mostly related to a corrupt /data partition and flaahing the firmware will erase /data.
If you have any questions about it just ask.
or try this tool

Thanks for this important correction.
Thanks for the prompt and useful reply.
I'd have quite happily tried the suggestion but I can't identify the correct file in the link https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/borneo/
Also, when I plug the phone into the PC there is not a glimmer of recognition on the PC (though the phone knows it's been connected) so I don't think it is sufficiently connected to do anything with - don't forget I cant boot to any menu, recovery or otherwise. I've tried different cables etc.
Lastly, I ran it down to zero battery yesterday. I don't think it is even charging as it was plugged in overnight and on the occasion I can get a display the battery state is showing 0% (i,e, when I first plug in the cable).
I'm not about to spend a lot of time or money trying to fix it but I have just ordered a new charging port dock as that was cheap enough and seems reasonably easy to replace.
I'll report back once that is done, meantime would appreciate any more thoughts people may have.
Thanks again.

But you can see a screen like this?
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Yes (sometimes)
This is the 'bootloader screen' or 'fastboot mode'. To open that screen:
device is powered off: hold Power+Vol- to boot into fastboot mode
device is powered on (but bootloops): hold Power+Vol- for 10-15 sec. to boot into fastboot mode
In that mode you can use the LMSA to flash a new firmware. In case it won't work you have the option to flash the firmware manually (with my help).
Hi, thanks for your patience.
I can get it to boot to the exact screen you show but it won't go any further, on any button press on the phone. I can scroll up and down from Start and see the other options but selecting any of them doesn't look like it does much. The PC doesn't seem to see the phone.
But I'd be happy trying anything!! I realise the phone contents are probably lost.

Once you're getting to that screen, that's a good sign. You need to leave it at that screen and then use Rescue and Smart Assistant (RSA) on your Windows computer to reinstall the firmware on your phone.
In fastboot mode you are able to flash a new firmware. Download the tool linked above and install it. You get instructions by the tool. Try it and for any questions write a post here.
RSA is running and I am logged in but it needs the IMEI which I don't have.
It does say if you know your phone supports Fastboot you can connect directly via Fastboot mode but it doesn't explain how.
Will the tool also link me to the right firmware?
OK, I found the original box which has the IMEI on.
I'm now downloading the firmware.
Well that completed successfully but I'm afraid it didn't fix the problem....
I don't think the phone is holding charge. It was still looping at the boot screen though it has now stopped doing that and is just blank. I'll leave it on charge overnight but I'm not expecting much!
I have the charge port part arriving in the next few days so I guess that's the next step.
Thanks for your help, I'm really grateful!
Still looping?
No, it's just dead. I think if I plugged it in it'd still be looping
sounds like a hardware issue...
Yep, new phone. I'll try this part I've ordered before giving up.
Thanks for all your help though.
no problem! I hope you will manage to fix the issue.
