I am also facing this kind of problem when tried to OTA update my D958

Use this guide.
Download these files (if you have D958):
1- sbl1.bin
2- aboot.bin
3- rpm.bin
4- tz.bin
5- recovery.bin
From here.
Make sure to add your account name in terminal command. Eg: "dd if=/home/your name/Desktop/sbl1.img of=/dev/sdb2"
You can use a virtual machine.
Before doing any of the above steps enter download mode using these:
-Turn off you phone by pressing for 15 sec on power button.
-Then, while holding volume up button connect your usb cable.
-You should see your phone in device manager as qhsusb_bulk. Install qhsusb_dload drivers in device manager using browse and locating the 32bit driver file.
Then you just follow the guide and it's fairly easy.
Good luck!

Hi Megatooth,
You writen in folder of autoprime "1- sbl1.bin" but in ex. yo was writen "dd if=/home/your name/Desktop/sbl1.img of=/dev/sdb2"
which format file need *.bin or *.img ??

Help O2x bricked nvflash not working

Hi i recently tried to install a recovery from rom manager, but it installed one for g2x so then nothing could mount in recovery and when i tried to flash, something failed and now my device is bricked. I then found this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1229407&page=5 which i was able to recognise my device as a NVIDIA usb boot recovery drive but every time i press flash-recovery.bat and chose the partition, it says nvflash is not recognised as a command.... and whenever i press nvflash.exe itself, the cmd window appears for one second and it disappears. The package has all the drivers for nvflash but it doesnt friggin work. HELP
You need to flash an entire rom with nvflash, because you messed up the partition table (p990 and p999 have different partitions). With this guide you'll flash only the recovery...
After that you need to flash a proper baseband
Have you a g2x or an o2x?

I have the same problem as him. Anyhelp?
I think you may try to reflash your device with the original firmware (KDZ file) which you can download from LG. Whole process is described in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18946763
Please note that recently LG has changed something in their tools and now you have to "fool" them to do what you want them to. Please see this thread for details:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473781
Hope this will help you.
if it says that nvflash is not a recognised command, then edit the .bat to point to your nvflash.exe instead of just saying nvflash. (C:\path\to\your\nvflash.exe)

u can try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498021
i have tryed to ease the things to understand.
i had the same problem.
i downloaded these files:
http://uploaded.to/file/dkq74mlh
http://uploaded.to/file/2azotnvs
unpacked the files (important is that you put all files from the driver zip in one folder)
click volume + and volume - while connecting to your computer and it will recognize it
You go to device manager, right click on the apx ,update driversoftware, search on the computer for driver software, choose the folder you've put the driver files
then you can start flash.bat

Thanks to Whitesnake for being the Guinea Pig while we figured out what was causing the bootloader issue.
Umm.. Whitesnake.. not whitehawk LOL
Looks like you put together a super package...
But I've got problems:
NVflash isn't working for me...
I just get an error:
Code:
C:\Adb\K1\NVFlash>nvflash -w
Nvflash started
rcm version 0X4
Command send failed (usb write failed)
My device is stuck in bootloops from flashing direct to K1_A301_13_13_111209_US.zip by renaming it update.zip and putting it in the Downloads folder.
Any idea what's going on? Should I just try to return it straight away?
EDIT: I'm bulled a bone head move. I was testing out nvflash, but in a directory without the files it needs! ha! All's well...
Is this tools can applied to umts model?
Hey broo I really apreciatte your work but the links are down and I really need this because I got that Famous Bootloop.
Thanks
thanks for the mirror, but a little cuestion: the nvflash drivers are the same for all the tegra 2 devices?... cause the link of the nvflash driver is down...
thanks¡¡
I want to use this w/o the 3rd party apps but there is no userdata_blank.img file to rename. Sorry if it's a noob question.

Just get Kaschemme NVflash, his are current.

lg l90 405 is believed to be 410 dual sim

hi to all guys, I would like to draw your attention to what happened to me, and possibly know how to restore.
I am owner of a lg l90 model d405n, wanting to unlock the bootloader I used an application that I would have to just unlock the bootloader and install a modified recovery.
Actually 'cell after this hack is pretty much dead, he would not turn either.
I started looking for various tools and various programs in vain, the cell showed no signs of life.
Then, now giving it up for lost, I tried to go for broke, I low-level formatted, and then with an application (umbrick) I could flesciare boot and everything else. Now the cell was lit and was also in mode 'upgrade download.
I downloaded the firmware of KDZ 405 and I tried to use flash tool but the procedure is always blocked to 2%, giving an error.
With the tool of 'LG blatantly that I discovered the phone was identified as d410, exhausted by the various trials do not go into port I wanted to download the KDZ model 410d and, as if by magic, flash tool worked! I installed the latest version and the phone works wonders!
So now I have a cell phone with firmware that is not his (among other things the 410d is also dual sim).
I would like to restore its system orifginale, that of the 405, but I'm afraid to do other **** ....
I hope someone can help me out

Did you still have your stock bootloader backup?

unfortunately no
Stock bootloader (aboot and abootb) can be retrieved from your model KDZ. Every partition, except modemst1 & 2 can be re-flashed from the KDZ.
But the bootloader alone won't do anything, you must flash the entire bootstack of D405n, enter in Donwload Mode again and LG Flash Tool will allow you to flash the entire KDZ again in Emergency Mode without errors.
If you IMEI was lost or changed, it can be restored with other programs after.

Answer so I can give you the proper response :
- Rooted?
- Unlocked bootloader?
- Custom recovery (twrp)?
- Variant model and country.
- Carrier model (if yes, which carrier)?

There is no way to know if the bootloader is unlocked, unless you make aboot partition image and hash check to compare with the original bootloader.
You have first to flash the hacked bootloader (aboot), since you don't know if it's unlocked, it won't hurt to flash again.
First enable USB debugging, at this point I assume you know how to do this.
Download the hacked aboot for D405n v20a:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/bn39rz7ojtosqm3/D405n_v20a_patched_aboot.zip (taken from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/development/recovery-twrp2-7-1-0lgl90w7xxshoxx-t2826150)
Extract the zip and copy aboot.bin to the root of your sdcard. Open android terminal ou adb, take su permission and allow it on your phone screen, flash the hacked bootloader with:
If you copied to the external microSD: dd if=/storage/external_SD/aboot.bin of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
If you copied to the internal sd: dd if=/sdcard/aboot.bin of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
Now flash custom recovery. Download http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=13334 (taken from the same thread).
Copy TWRP_2.8.7.0_270615_L90.img to the root of your sdcard. To make things easier, rename it to recovery.img. Take su permission and flash with adb or android terminal with:
If you copied to the external microSD: dd if=/storage/external_SD/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
If you copied to the internal sd: dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
Now reboot into twrp custom recovery, you can either send reboot recovery command in adb shell or terminal, or with your phone off, hold VOL - and PWR button, when lg logo appears, release and hold PWR button again until a blank screen appears, select YES twice (navigate with VOL buttons and PWR to select). Since now you are on custom recovery, twrp will boot instead a factory reset routine.
Download your D405n bootstack: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347759484 (taken from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/development/bootstack-kk-l-l90-t3118632)
Copy to your sdcard (do not extract the file). In TWRP recovery, select INSTALL and flash the zip.
Download your italy D405n v20a lollipop kdz: http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FW932KU032N9A1T29B55QPQ/D405n20a_00.kdz

If you face force closes after the first boot, do a factory reset (VOL- and PWR button, like I described before, but since now you are all stock, factory reset will be applied).
Now you are 100% on your italy d405n v20a lollipop.

forgive one other thing , I do not at this time use cards microSD , as changes this
I gave you the two options, to copy the necessary files to microSD or internal memory, and what part you didn't understand?
If you don't use microSD, you must use the internal SD command (If you copied to the internal sd: dd if=/sdcard/... etc).
In android, both storage is called SD, the internal one that comes with the phone is the internal SD (sdcard0, media, sdcard, etc), the other one that you stick in the phone is the external SD (external_SD).

This is not possible. If you flashed D405n bootstack, there is no way LG Flash Tool recognize your phone as D410.
Are you running the LG Flash Tool mod or the official LG Mobile Support Tool? Are you using Download Mode set to Emergency?
On Read Phone Information, you don't need to run it (sometimes it hangs), and click on Clear phone Software update Registry on Select Country % Language Window.
Also check if the KDZ you downloaded is not corrupted. It's a common error the flash tool fail because the kdz is corrupted.

Hi there.If you have root access and unlocked bootloader,you can install TWRP even without pc connection.
first you should download a terminal emulator app from google play.
then you should download the latest version of TWRP image file from here https://dl.twrp.me/yuga/.
Place it in the root of your /sdcard folder and rename it to twrp.img
Run the following commands in terminal app
Code:
su
and then we write recovery image file to FOTA with dd command.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
and it's done.
press thanks if it was helpful.
i installed hk lollipop zip from my custom twrp recovery. and when rom istall has finished ; recovery gone.

Below are 2 solutions to get a properly working recovery
Preperation:
1. Download Dual recovery installer: XZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.23-RELEASE.combined.zip
2. Install NDRUtils
Next up we will test if the TWRP you installed works or not
-open NDRUtils and choose to boot into TWRP recovery.
Now unhide the result that you got to continue with the installation:
OK: I am now in TWRP
flash XZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.23-RELEASE.combined.zip and reboot.
Everything will work normally now.
Not OK: I am not in TWRP
Reboot the phone if you have to (hold power until you feel 3 vibrations and then turn the phone back on)
You need to download this: http://nut.xperia-files.com/path/XZDualRecovery/Kernel_Builder
To get the right file make sure to selec the xperia z c6603 and select the rom version you are using, you can view what you have in settings, about phone, build number.
it will be much easier for you if you install this: X-plore File Manager The reason i recommend this application is that it automatically makes sure the file rights are correct.
Go into the settings and enable superuser +mount root mode
Now you can browse to the folder where you downloaded the zip in the left pane.
go into the zip and and then into tmp
Select the boot.img
now move to the right pane and browse to the root of your SD card like the comment above
go back to the left pane and with boot.img still checked click copy.
Now follow the original instructions mrp1375 gave you, but notice the different filename
Open terminal
Type : su
Type: dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
Now you can reboot and if it worked the phone will vibrate twice and show a green led meaning you can press the down button to enter TWRP recovery.
Go into the recovery and now flash XZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.23-RELEASE.combined.zip so you get a proper installation
Now remember this very important fact:
Whenever you flash or wipe anything you MUST reinstall recovery and root again.
This is a failsafe strategy you can NEVER ignore becaus of your usb issues.
Keep SuperSu installer and XZ-lockeddualrecovery installer on your device at all times!
thank you

OK: I am now in TWRP
flash XZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.23-RELEASE.combined.zip and reboot.
Everything will work normally now.
Not OK: I am not in TWRP
Reboot the phone if you have to (hold power until you feel 3 vibrations and then turn the phone back on)
You need to download this:
To get the right file make sure to selec the xperia z c6603 and select the rom version you are using, you can view what you have in settings, about phone, build number.
it will be much easier for you if you install this: The reason i recommend this application is that it automatically makes sure the file rights are correct.
Go into the settings and enable superuser +mount root mode
Now you can browse to the folder where you downloaded the zip in the left pane.
go into the zip and and then into tmp
Select the boot.img
now move to the right pane and browse to the root of your SD card like the comment above
go back to the left pane and with boot.img still checked click copy.
Now follow the original instructions mrp1375 gave you, but notice the different filename
Open terminal
Type : su
Type: dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
Now you can reboot and if it worked the phone will vibrate twice and show a green led meaning you can press the down button to enter TWRP recovery.
Go into the recovery and now flash XZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.23-RELEASE.combined.zip so you get a proper installation
Now remember this very important fact:
Whenever you flash or wipe anything you MUST reinstall recovery and root again.
This is a failsafe strategy you can NEVER ignore becaus of your usb issues.
Keep SuperSu installer and XZ-lockeddualrecovery installer on your device at all times!

any way to fix this? Thanks!

That doesnt look quite right it should look like this:
Code:
[email protected]:/ $
Then you type "su" (without the quotes) and press enter
The display then changes to:
Code:
[email protected]:/ #
Now you type "dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel" (without the quotes) and press enter
And then it should work properly.

2/ I had successful root HTC One M7 before, so Let’s see me have a little exp for Rooting . Then own the new Moto E3 Power and I want do the same HTC .
*My story:
I bought the new E3 Power on online store and Im going to root it. Unluckily, I forgot to ‘fastboot format userdata’ and this phone gonna ‘bootloop’ :v. I bring it to fix in small repair phone center (I already give them the stock rom), hope they can flash rom stock but they turn my phone into ‘hard bricked mode’ :v, less well they format S/N @@.
That’s a awful time in my life =)), I sent it back to store. Luckily, they accept to fix it cause I just used it for 2 days (actually I told them it was factory error) and maybe they believe it true ‘opsss! So sorry’.
After my phone fixed, I root it again, and this time I did really carefully so ‘Your device has rooted’ Bravo! =)). And ‘Peaceful time’ long last 4months, I just install SDMaid and run Luckypatcher to crack SDMaid FREE up to SDMaid PRO, and used SDMaid to cleanup the phone, then my phone run to error ‘com.android.phone had stoped’, and I also find many ways to fix this problem, almost solution on the internet I have try but it’s not working, the finnally option, I chose to ‘reset phone to factory’ .

*Note:
1/ Im a newbie, not a specialist about android phone or technician mobile. I just a person who curious ‘rooting android’ to make my phone can delete almost factory app not neccesary.LoL. Truly, I want to cheat mobile game =)).
2/ I had successful root HTC One M7 before, so Let’s see me have a little exp for Rooting . Then own the new Moto E3 Power and I want do the same HTC .
*My story:
I bought the new E3 Power on online store and Im going to root it. Unluckily, I forgot to ‘fastboot format userdata’ and this phone gonna ‘bootloop’ :v. I bring it to fix in small repair phone center (I already give them the stock rom), hope they can flash rom stock but they turn my phone into ‘hard bricked mode’ :v, less well they format S/N @@.
That’s a awful time in my life =)), I sent it back to store. Luckily, they accept to fix it cause I just used it for 2 days (actually I told them it was factory error) and maybe they believe it true ‘opsss! So sorry’.
After my phone fixed, I root it again, and this time I did really carefully so ‘Your device has rooted’ Bravo! =)). And ‘Peaceful time’ long last 4months, I just install SDMaid and run Luckypatcher to crack SDMaid FREE up to SDMaid PRO, and used SDMaid to cleanup the phone, then my phone run to error ‘com.android.phone had stoped’, and I also find many ways to fix this problem, almost solution on the internet I have try but it’s not working, the finnally option, I chose to ‘reset phone to factory’ . OOOPS! My phone got ‘Soft bricked’ =.=,unfortunately I had deleted file TWRP backup @@, then I tried to flash stock rom thought TWRP but it error =.=. At this moment, I think ‘prehap I bring it to store fix it again?’ . NOPE! Im looking on the internet to find out solution to fix it (just a few days before I write this topic), finally only way to fix that is ‘SP Flash Tool’ =)), and it work! .
*So it’s all my story when I come to E3 GOD Power =)). Sorry if it so drammatic and bad english :”>. U guys can skip that and go to Main Problem here:

Awesome post brother! I only wish I had simply read this post before messing up so much with my phone. Actually, I was messing with some magisk module (edxposed) whick bricked my device and got me stuck at a bootloop and with no recovery partition at all. (It erased my TWRP). So I used the sp flash tool and formatted the whole flash (at that time, I hadn't read this post of yours). Then I flashed my entire firmware back via the sp flash tool. So I thought that now my problem was fixed. But when I switched on my phone I saw my phone's IMEI Number gone! And the sim not working and showing invalid IMEI message. So I tried to find a fix on the internet and I found 2 solutions. First was using an app which requires the phone to support some mtk engineering mode. I followed the instructions and realised that maybe our phone Moto E3 Power doesn't support this mode. So I switched to the second solution, which required root access. So then I set off for rooting my newly unbricked phone. But I again did some mistakes:
1.) Allowed usb debugging and OEM unlocking in my phone's developer options in settings.
2.) I installed minimal ADB v1.4.3 on a windows 10 computer. Checked my phone's connection with the PC via ADB command adb devices. It worked showing some error initially (daemon not started.... Starting daemon...) and then showing some hex code signifying my device's successful connection with the PC.
3.) Used ADB command adb reboot bootloader to boot into fastboot mode. It worked too.
3.) Used fastboot command fastboot devices to check if my device is still being recognised as connected to the pc. Here came an error (the command didn't return any hex code like the adb command adb devices did. So I googled a solution which involves updating the "Android ADB interface" to "Android Bootloader interface" in the "Android device" submenu of the "Device Manager" window of the "control panel" of the pc, by updating its drivers using the "latest windows usb drivers" 8mb file which could be found very easily on the internet (searching solution for fastboot device drivers update on Google). {*Note: If you hadn't installed beforehand, any adb and fastboot drivers at all, then you will see "Other devices" submenu instead of the "Android device" submenu in the device manager window.
Also, you compulsively need to be in fastboot mode with your device attached to pc, in order to see this "other devices" submenu.} So now the fastboot devices command started working by showing the hex code like adb devices command did.
4.) Used fastboot oem unlock command to unlock the phone's bootloader. Pressed the volume up button of my phone as instructed by the warning message on my phone's screen. Unlock flow started in the minimal adb window in my pc. Finished successfully within 9-13 seconds. Another mistake now, after unlocking the bootloader, I forgot to format userdata.. Actually I didn't know about the fastboot format userdata command. I thought the fastboot -w reboot is the only way to format userdata (which wasn't working for me). Unaware of the fact that now I was going to experience a bootloop during rebooting my phone, I continued with the further steps.
5.) Used fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command to flash the unofficial twrp img which I had already placed in the minimal adb folder and renamed to recovery.img I used unofficial twrp v3.1.1 (by moderator) [which was working perfectly earlier on my phone] {link at bottom}. Successfully finished this step too. [You can use either of the two twrp: Dr. Faramroze (link provided by op) or moderator (link provided by me). Both are working fine]
6.) Used the fastboot reboot command (although it never works for me). It shows finished in the minimal adb cmd screen but the phone doesn't reboot. So I manually unplugged the device. Removed and reinserted the battery.
7.) Now rebooted to recovery screen and found the unofficial twrp successfully installed. [ Warning: After the 6th step, don't reboot your phone normally. Instead, boot into the fastboot window [hold power + vol. up] and select the boot into recovery option. This is required only for the first boot up process or else if you do a normal boot during the first boot, the stock recovery replaces our recently flashed custom recovery..
8.) Upon entering the twrp recovery during the first boot, I installed the magisk v19.3 zip I had in my external SD card. It's not necessary to root your phone right now, you may even do it later by simply rebooting from within the twrp, and later on entering recovery after your phone is all set and working and when you're free from other hassles. But I went for rooting during the first boot. And encountered an error something like: "Cannot mount data(0mb)" at the second last line. So, I could not root my phone. So I decided to root it later on and currently just have it switched on. So, I went for the reboot option in twrp.
9.) My phone started rebooting and got stuck at the boot screen with the tag Device unlocked at the lower left corner (indicating unlocked bootloader). But this was something familiar to me, I had already dealt with this error the previous time I rooted my phone. The solution was very simple. I just had to flash a no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file {included along with the twrp link} using the twrp recovery and then my device would boot properly, as it did the last time.
10.) I flashed the no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file from the twrp and got so many red line errors during the flash. (This didn't happen the last time). Every error had the same words, "cannot mount data (0mb)". So I went back to try rebooting again.
11.) Started rebooting again. This time the device didn't get stuck at boot screen, rather it went into a bootloop, rebooting again and again. Now maybe the no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file did its job and my device got free from the stuck at boot screen problem but simultaneously got caught by the bootloop error probably created due to not formatting the userdata after unlocking the bootloader. Or maybe the "cannot mount data (0mb) just ruined up my phone. Whatever the cause be, I just went for reflashing the entire firmware via the sp flash tool and temporarily forgetting all the bootloader unlocking, custom recovery, rooting, etc and live with an invalid IMEI phone without a working sim, until I find a solution on the internet.
12.) And then, I ended up here on this thread leaving my experience, and learning my mistakes from the OP's post. Very soon I will depart for the cyber cafe to try again without any mistakes this time.
At last thanks for this awesome thread.
And yes here's the link for the unofficial twrp 3.1.1 (by moderator) & the no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file:

Search Google for "Moto E3 power firmware flash file" and you will come across websites providing the flash file. The file would have a name like "Motorola_Moto_E3_Power_XT1706_MT6735M_S135_161108_6.0.1.zip". The "S135" over here is the firmware version and will vary upon the version uploaded by the site. The latest version as of today is S152_190315. I somehow managed to download a S151 file and I forgot where I downloaded it from. But you can still go for older firmware versions, and then when you're done with all the flashing and rooting and all that and your phone starts up without any error, you can go for OTA updates from within the settings>about phone>system update.

S151 is newest (flash file available for download) for XT1706. [Actually S152 is latest but it's not yet available for download] So you succeeded maybe because you used the older version. Cause a guy commented that he couldn't root the newer versions but could root the older versions.

Is it necessary to uncheck preload? If yes, I think you should highlight it. Anyway, I didn't uncheck preload and the flash successfully worked for me? So what difference does it count for? Please do notify us of its significance.

I didn't remove my battery, sim or microsd card and everything worked fine for me. Also, I didn't connect my device to pc after pressing the download button in the sp flash tool. Here's what I did instead:
I kept the sp flash tool ready with all steps. Only pressing the download button remaining. Then I connected my device to the pc. As soon as you hear the device connected sound, press the download button. And the flashing process will start. If you get late in pressing the download button, you will hear another sound of device disconnected. Then you'll have to remove the usb from the device and replug it and go for trying again pressing the download button as soon as you hear the device connected sound.
