[SOLVED] Phone unable to boot, unable to join S/W upgrade mode - LG Optimus 4X HD

I recently updated to V20A KDZ, with no problem. However, I was unable to unlock bootloader, though i'm on EUR-XXX version, so I've given up.
I tried to install the photosphere app of this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182850
So i copied manually the files in the /system folders. Then I rebooted, but the phone whas stuck on "Android is upgrading... Starting apps"
I rebooted once again, and it was unable to boot.
I tried to remove the battery and plug the USB cable with the vol- key to enter in S/W upgrade mode and flash KDZ, but each time I get a weird colored screen. I obviously don't have CWM installed.
Sometimes it gets again on the "Android is upgrading..."
I don't know what to do ?
Thanks
EDIT : Wow, did a very weird thing. Knowing that colored screens were voltage issues, i removed the battery and plugged the phone to the AC adaptator and got the S/W firmware upgrade mode ! So I put the battery back, plugged it on USB, removed the battery, launched the KDZ update and put the battery back again. It did work !

Hard bricked Wiko Rainbow

Hello,
First of all, sorry for my english as it is not my mother language
I've tried today flashing CM13 on my Wiko Rainbow, but I either failed following the instructions or the files I had were corrupted, leading to a never-ending boot.
I don't know if it was already a soft-brick back then, as the phone turned off while booting just after the installation, but 40min after it (obviously because of en empty battery, which was at 37% before installation)
At first, when the phone was plugged into the computer, the phone was booting up, showing the charging icon for a few seconds, and then was going into the infinite boot for 10 seconds, and then rebooting for the same process.
When I was charging the phone on a wall plug, the phone was just in an infinite loop.
The problem was that, when I did the Volume down + Volume up + power thing, I had a choice between Factory mode and Custom mode, but both of them led me to a black screen, and the phone powered off.
I then searched how to install a custom recovery with a soft-bricked phone, and I got a tutorial on SP Flash Tool, that told me to use a MT6582 scatter file, and to select only a Recovery. I downloaded a TWRP for my phone, and then started download, retracted the battery and plugged the phone on the computer.
I got this message : "brom error s_fthnd_file_is_not_loaded_yet"
The software told me to format the Flash, which I did, and this error now became this : "BROM ERROR : S_DL_GET_DRAM_SETTING_FAIL (5054)"
The thing is that now, the soft brick is now a hard brick, and I can't get the phone to boot anymore, adb doesn't recognize my device, and after installing and reinstalling my phone drivers, no solution came out yet, so I'm hopping that you'll find a solution to help my problem
Thanks.
Regards.

You're going to need the firmware (not just TWRP) to fix your phone. Have you been able to download it?

Mi5 doesn't power on

Hi,
I have a problem with my Mi5, last night I turned it off (it starts automatically at 7.00) and this morning I found it locked on the screen with the Mi logo and the word "powered by android".
I tried to restart it but I can't turn it off, whenever I try, it restarts and crashes again on that screen.
I can enter twrp and fastboot mode, but I can't detect the phone from my mac, either way, or through adb or fastboot, and i also already tryed to clean davlik and cache, but without succes
Does anyone have a solution?
Make backup and try to flash lineageos.
Also flash latest firmware with TWRP.
The phone isn't recognised by any pc, so it's impossible put a zip on it for flash a new rom
does it flash the lights if you charge it ?
try and let it drain the battery ( leave it for a few days ), and then charge to max.
if nothing of this works, you might need a flash cable .

I know I have done few things wrong in confusion, but realized later on. It is H811 TMO model for sure.
I did select refurbished while using LG UP
My phone is not completely dead.
Pressing power button it stuck on LG logo with unlocked boot loader msg. not going to the bootloop.
I am unable to enter download mode, it responds but freeze before entering download showing 4 blue dots.
I am able to enter recovery but I can not hard reset as it always freezes on 2nd hard reset screen and not formatting.
No charging, Device Manager shows nothing.
Is there a way to recover??
I am not sure, If this is some hardware issue or emmc fault , Please help me on this..
I'm in the same situation.
I tryed to install h81120v kdz and did it perfectly, but when the phone restarted... bootloop!
And now, if I try to enter in Download Mode, a message 'Download Mode' appear with 5 blue dots and nothing else.
My computer don't recognize it
I tryed the Unbrick method with SD Card but still the same

Nokia 8 almost dead! TA-1004

Hey
yesterday i almost bricked or maybe bricked my phone. Accidentally changed partition from B to A. Today my phone boot only to nokia logo and stuck on it
Many hours readed about this phone back to life. Recover mode not work, fastboot mode not work. This phone one chance to turn off is completly battery discharge.
If no chance to get back this phone to normal i will get throw it to trash
Classic example of a softbrick can't really call it a hardbrick tbh. PM me all of the details and I'll later make a tutorial if we manage to fix it up.

I did the same thing.
- Downgrade to Oreo
- unlocked officially bootloader
-fastboot boot twrp.img
booted to twrp- Flashed zip on both slot with latest twrp
Changed slot A to slot B and
we have same problem.
How did you solve your issue?
Did you wait for battery-drain?
Or other combination of buttons.
I tried all the button-combination without success.
Hope you could give advice
Regards
Edit: How to solve!
I simply waited until the battery ran out
When battery was completely dead and no Nokia-logo any more
Then I charged the battery 3% juice without booting
and from there I entered recovery-mode with the help of a USB cable.
Holding the volume+ button while connecting the USB-cable
From TWRP-recovery I changed to the other inactive slot
and whooala, that's it!
I have OEM unlocked my nokia 8 boot loader by nokia official method ,
Then I decide to flash twrp and magick
When boot twrp it give an error that locked
Then I checked some forums and find a way ,
I do what is guided in that forum
Change boot slot b to a ... and I flashed twrp then I flash rom , at the end of flash slide to reboot , then I reboot but after that there is no response in device it went blank and black.....

Anyone help me

stuck on boot loop after flashing with Odin, please help I'm freaking out here

[SOLVED: Just downloaded latest version of Odin from Sammobile. What a relief!]
Hey guys, this is my first post so please forgive me for any mistakes.
My Note, unlocked SM-960U1, was stuck on June 1 security patch so I decided to flash to this month's firmware:
N960U1UEU2CSH2 for XAR
This got me stuck in a boot loop, which is now causing me to panic. I tried going to download mode and flashing it again but then another issued appeared:
it got stuck on a blue screen with the android and "erasing" I used HOME_CSC This isn't even supposed to erase anything!!!
I tried going on recovery mode but It didn't show up. I went to download mode then, and chose restart. That led me to the recovery mode and I chose restart again, and it showed me this:
#Reboot Recovery Cause is [[odin]RebootRecoveryAfterOdinDL]#
Support SINGLE-SKU
Block-Based OTA
Supported API: 3
# MANUAL MODE v1.0.0#
Rebooting...
That just froze and never rebooted! NO other commands work now. I am freaking out. The phone is hot also. Please someone help out!
Update
I can go on download mode now, but if I choose reset it sends me to the boot screen and then I see a dead android for a split second, then I'm in recovery mode. I can do nothing useful in there and restarting just freezes again

you might have your terminology backwards. There isnt a button in download mode to reset the phone, there is one in recovery tho.
Anyways, if you can get to download mode, youre likely gonna be just fine. Just download a fresh copy of your firmware and flash it with Odin with your phone in download mode
Battery Drained

I know it's been a year, but I recently experienced the issue. So this is for...someone else? lol
If you had a PASS on Odin and yet you stuck on boot loop, chances are your battery is drained, and it might not successfully boot to run configuration and deletion. Connect it to a power source, it might prompt it to the boot loop but do it regardless. After like 15-30 mins, you should see the battery charging indicator. You should be good!
