ok, first off i am sorry to bother with this but i have ****ed up some how -.- i have had my HTC one rootet for a long time now. before this galaxy s3-4 and so on but this is the first time i havent found out how to fix by searching.
ok to start off. i got my phone back to stock using RUU methode. and upgraded it from 4.2.2(had it there for some time ) to 4.4.2 and everything went fine. untill i turned off the phone to unlock and root again. i got it unlocked, and tried to go into recovery just to see if twrp was still there. but here i get the red triange with "!" upside down. so i get the phone out off this screen and turns it on again. i think it is the recovery so i just boot it into fastboot and conect to the computer to install new recovery. but now i got more problems. the htc do not show up when it is in bootloader. i get it when i type "fastboot devices" in cmd but nothing in computer folder or anywhere where i can access it. i have tried uninstalling HTC sync, uninstall drivers, reboot computer, reset phone, install everything, and diffrent usb cables. also in device manager it shows with name My HTC and with the icon off a network.
but i do not know what more i can o now to get this fixed.
all help will be much appriciated

can you check FAQ #2 in my guide if that's the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082
Evening. As I was trying to flash a ROM into my p880 i got a status 7 error which means device id == p880 is false, and searching on the forums lead me to something , deleting the 1st line of code drom update script wich was causing that problem.
Afterwards tried to flash again and the ROM start to flash but as it was trying to extract system it got status 7 again. The phone booted and I keep getting morning call is empty on LG logo.
I can't access Recovery and I tried to use LG Flash tool aswell but seems that my computer installs my device as "LGE Mobile Composite USB Device" with a yellow warning sign. Sometimes when I try to connect the phone with Recovery on the PC it just gets a white screen and keeps vibrating. Any idea how to fix ? I can try to provide more details if needed
I feel like I'm reading about MY first flashing tries
Get an external SD card, put fixed version of that ROM (or completely another one) on it, boot into recovery and flash ROM from there. Worked for me.
I have half-bricked P880. Bought just a week ago.
My ROM is stock V10C. I’m trying to get rid of that crap ROM, but so far without success.
I have rooted the phone but flashify is the only app saing that the phone is not rooted. Every other app which requires root is normally working. I can’t unlock the bootloader because phone can’t be recognized by any computer, using different Windows, USB cables etc. It just shows charging but PC doesn’t see any connected device. Nor the phone shows any connection option when I connect it to PC by USB.
I’ve tried to install TWRP (without success) and CWM (successfully) but the phone can’t be load into bootloader. Just an LG logo will appear and this error message:
[LGE_SECURITY ERROR] boot image signature
Critical failure: Unable to start kernel
Unrecoverable bootloader error (0x00000002)
I think it’s still locked.
This method hasn’t help either…
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251407
What’s more, the error message appears almost every time I try to turn on the phone. Sometimes it takes 10 attempts until the phone will finally boot into Android.
Yes I’ve tried basic things like playing with USB debug mode, LG PC suite option/USB tethering… please don’t respond to my question by that kind of suggestions, I’m no rookie in flashing roms and Android problems.
Only hope for me is to flash kdz file via PC (when the phone is off and battery out). BUT I’m unable to do that, due to problem that the phone is again NOT RECOGNIZED by PC. Of course I've tried every kind of LG driver but the problem is in the phone, because the PC won’t even notify by sound that a phone has been connected to it. So I need to change the corrupted bootloader… somehow.
I’ve already searched everything to this issue on XDA and elsewhere - without any solution. So I’m 95% the phone is half-bricked without any chance to flash new ROM.
If none of those things that you said doesnt work, as last resort you should try this

Thank you for a quick reply! However the autor of the method says:
i mean when you get stucked with S/W screen, and you can't flash the device in any way

In my case I can't say that I'm stuck with S/W screen. Because I don't even get in there. Any PC in my home (XP/Windows 7) don't even recognize that a mobile has been connected to it. So there is no S/W screen. The only way I can get in S/W screen is to keep the battery in, but it doesn't solve anything. Because the phone remains unrecognized to PC. Therefore I'm unable to flash anything. A simple explanation in here arose: the USB port in my phone is faulty. BUT, how that can be, when the USB charging works fine and even S/W screen appears while the battery is in?
Either way I'll keep your suggestion as the final solution(since I'm very skeptical of it and also dont have screwdriver small enought to take out those tine srews) if there will be no other responce to my problem.
I'm not very experienced in things like this, but when I was flashing kdz to my phone, my computer wasn't able to recognize the phone with battery out, so I did whole process with battery in (and it worked)
anyway if you want to unlock the bootloader you have to update to official JB (just flash JB kdz and then wipe data in LG recovery to prevent bootloop)
so first you have to connect somehow your phone in sw mode to computer
then flash JB kdz and wipe data in LG recovery (it should be back even if you've flashed twrp)
and finally root JB and unlock bootloader (for example this way I found by two clicks here at xda, just browse Optimus 4x general category: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251407 )
I hope I helped you a bit
I agree with you SuperLamic. Especially with this:
so first you have to connect somehow your phone in sw mode to computer

My only hope is to flash kdz file using fastboot mode. However after days of searching on XDA, installing all kinds of drivers, trying different methods etc., I'm still unable to connect my phone to PC.
Any PC I tryied so far haven't even made a sound while pluging my LG to it. Nor it's vissible in the list of connected USB devices.
So now I'm sure that a USB port on my phone is faulty There is no other possible explanation. But thank you all for your suggestions anyway.
P.S.
There is maybe a tiny chance for workaround by unlocking the bootloader without PC. But this method doesn't work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251407 With unlocked bootloader I woud be able to solve the problem without PC. Right now I can't install TWRP nor CWM because they require bootloader to be unlocked. CWM in ROM Manager always says that installation was successful but actualy, it wasn't. Since there is always this error when I try to load recowery mod...
[LGE_SECURITY ERROR] boot image signature
Critical failure: Unable to start kernel
Unrecoverable bootloader error (0x00000002)
EDIT:
So I find out that only JB ROMs can be unlocked. It's not possible with my stock ICS. So there is really only one solution: repair my USB port on LG to flash kdz. But I'm afraid that these days a repair will cost more than the phone itself :[
Hello all..
I'm sorry if this is the wrong section, but I can't connect my problem to anything similar..
I've been removing system apps on my phone and, unfortunately I selected Lg Home in a group, and without noticing I deleted it.
I did restart it after it.. and the problems started.
I was able to select the custom Home by LG somehow, but I'm enable to go into settings (getting "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped.")
After that, I noticed that I cannot do really anything on the phone.. my PC no longer recognize my device, usb debugging is disabled.
In addition, I cannot get into fastboot (boot loop, when I'm holding the keys),
I cannot go into recovery too.
I could only get to the LG hard reset page, did reset the phone.. with no success at getting anything back.
I have terminal emulator and SuperSU on my phone (it's rooted).
Is there anything I can do with the terminal? Like send LG drivers to my PC, or restarting in fastboot/recovery?
I even tried to flash the original ROM with LG Flesh Tool.
With that program I cannot get phone information, and when I try to flash I get a message saying that Upgrade stopped due to an error.
It asked me to restart and bla bla.. still same
I did try it from download mode, but my phone did not got recognized on the PC again, so nothing there too.
Whenever I connect the device to the PC, windows is searching for drivers for MTP Usb Driver (and fails everytime). Note: I did have those installed before I messed up the phone.
I have ADB and I'm working with cordova, so I tried to install another andorid on my pc, and it got recognized right away (every driver was installed without doing anything, and I can shell it).
Any advice?
Thanks.
Sorry for spamming..
But, nothing really??
Hello everyone. I am in real trouble here and I will explain why. I have recently tried to get the custom recovery with a locked bootloader (philz touch) on my device by following a thread. As far as I know I followed the guide properly but when my device rebooted it bootlooped 10x and then when my device booted it froze at the lock screen and restarted. now my device bootloops several times before boot and once it boots I get 1min at the most before it freezes and restarts. Also sometimes it fails to boot at all and it gets stuck in an infinate bootloop and I have to pull the battery. when I connect it to my laptop with a usb cable it is only recognised if the device boots but I only have a few seconds because the phone reboots and disconnects when I try and enter recovery or download mode my screen goes black and the only way to get of this is to pull the battery. I have also tried to connect to my laptop when on this black screen but i have had no success. If I turn the phone off and connect it to my laptop via usb when I am on the "battery charging screen" it appears on my computer as a unknown usb device. i do have all the drivers ect. my device is rooted with baidu root if that helps. ive heard of a little device called a usb jig would that be useful to me? sorry if this is not worded very well or looks like a book. Im not a idiot but not quite "tech savy" i would like to think i am somewhere in the middle. I have been using this site for years for various devices and always managed to succeed. help would be apprecited. Thanks
UPDATE: I have tried to factory reset from the settings but for some reason the button is greyed out and it wont let me press it! also I cannot connect to wifi or mobile data these are greyed out aswell and when I try to connect via the sliders in the settings menu they are also greyed out!!!

Hi, you need an unlocked bootloader for it to work properly. You can find how to unlock the bootloader by going to Sony's website and see where it says to unlock the bootloader or just look for it on Google. To get back to the stock rom (Android 4.4.2 KitKat), you will need Flashtool and the stock rom. You can find the rom on Google by just typing "sony xperia e1 d2005 stock rom". To get the recovery just try looking for it on XDA. And USB Jig will not work for Sony devices. USB Jig is only designed to work with Samsung devices.
