I have accidently bricked my device, I rooted the phone and installed the Freedom Flex TWRP. I then thought to take the OTA for KitKat which ended up bricking my Flex. Whenever the phone turns on it boots past the LG logo and straight into TWRP. I tried sideloading the DFUSE stock att rom but I get an error saying "cannot read sideload". I have no other options, any help is appreciated.
Solved thanks to jacktackle!
His steps:
from the TWRP terminal command type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
then hit enter (it should copy some file. if nothing happens then twrp backup is only option.) if there is some activity then type the next command.
where you have to change only the last word
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc
then hit enter and reboot
Good news. U can get to recovery you are not bricked. Even better news it is a easy fix. I was in the same boat.
To fix it:
Download the stock JB zip room. It is large, about 1.7 Gig. Make sure it downloads correctly.
Copy the file in your adb directory.
Boot into recovery and connect your phone to the computer.
Adb devices should give you the device info. Afterwords enter:
adb push <name of the zip> /sdcard/
It will take about 10 minutes for it to complete. In the meantime you will see no activity. Wait.
After it completes, do a factory reset and install the zip as normal.
Done.
Reboot, do a factory reset from the settings, accept the ota and root with stump root.

Same problems, tried to sideload but i get "cannot read sideload" and adb push shows device not found. I don't have a linux box, but is there any other to fix this? I hear the pop up sound whenever I plug the phone into my WIn8 Laptop but nothing comes Up (i.e. USB/adb/etc.)
What happenes if you enter <adb devices> ?

This LG fLEX is full of problems thanks for XDA Developers site for retriving so many devices and next is you in the list brother.
Ok it's very easy.
do you have a backup of twrp? saved somewhere? if not ask any one on the forum with d950 varient who have a backup can help you to upload it.
after you get a twrp backup, come back to me. it's a piece of cake then.
in the mean time, try this from TWRP recovery
from the TWRP terminal command type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
then hit enter (it should copy some file. if nothing happens then twrp backup is only option.) if there is some activity then type the next command.

I recently purchased an LG Phoenix by At&t, the problem I have is that I cannot leave ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
I rooted it, restarted in recovery. and everything worked fine. I then upgraded my firmware, not sure what version though.. I backed up my phone before I upgraded into the new firmware. I then backedup my phone because it rebooted into recovery. Now everytime it boots it goes straight to Clockwork and I cant get out of it. I restored to my previous restore and it still doesn't work. What could I do? Should I install cwr 3? I read that cwr 5 has bugs and is known to brick phones..
Edit: Also the phone without the sd card still boots into clockworkmod menu
I have a ROM(Phoenix ULTIMATE) I'd like to flash but I'm not sure if I should right now considering I'm stuck at this menu.
Info- in my restores It says;
2011-10-04.21.37.48/
2011-10-04.21.56.13/
I'v tried both.
Another edit with potentially important info getting an error stating;

Sorry If this is a n00b post.. I'm in sort of a rush because I'm moving in a few hours!
Edit; tried flashing the phoenix, didnt work.
installation was aborted
said i needed to switch to Edify scripting, and amend scripting is no longer supported.
What could I flash too to fix this, please help. I don't care if I lose data. Just need my phone back soon.
I have android SDK.
I was reading up on http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517874 here
Would I be-able to push somesort of boot file or firmware to my phone? Or something in that manner?
THIS:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash userdata data.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
Seems to be perfect for what I should try, where could I get the stock imgs for my phone? (p505)
I moved this here temporarily for you to be assisted...after that it will be moved beck to the right forum
Good luck!!

All you need now is platform-tools . The rest can be cancelled .
Use cmd (best if used with administrative rights) to navigate to the Android SDK folder , then to platform-tools .
Once you get there , connect your phone through USB then don't touch it .
In cmd , type:

Are you able to try and boot into bootloader? Try that. Also, try and flash a new ROM in recovery, test to see if it may be the ROM. Don't be afraid to backup again, you can always access the backups based on date.

What's bootloader?
I tried to flash my backups before the firmware update and it didn't work, I also can't find any wp505 roms.. I found a few but they wont help in my situation. Do you know any? My rom is stock as I only rooted and got stuck in cwr.
Thanks!

First off, not to lecture you...but you definitely should look into these kind of things before flashing a ROM.
I haven't looked at the ROMs so I'm not sure. But whatever fancies you, it's just to troubleshoot the problem. The problem itself may actually be the recovery. Do you know how to do logcats in ADB? Try and do a logcat and boot up your device while connected to ADB.
So go "adb logcat". This should show you exactly what your device is doing. When it runs and goes straight to recovery paste all that information into a .txt document and upload it onto xda so others can take a look.
I'll try and help more tomorrow but I have to get some rest. Good luck on getting this fixed.

I cant use recovery mode, my phone can open fastboot and bootloader, but can't open recovery mode (it's only show a android logo when i press "recovery")
please help me (
I could be wrong, but you should be able to use adb to push a new recovery on to your phone.
Try plugging your phone thru USB cord to your computer to see if you can run any adb commands. If you can I think you should be able to push a new recovery to your phone.

but my phone cant connect with PC, atlthough i installed google usb driver.
i might be wrong but cant you just flash a original ruu, than root and reinstall recovery
#1)Go and download yourself a recovery.img file that is compatible with your device and put the image on the root of your SD card (that means on the main directory and not in a folder)
#2)Make sure you have a terminal emulator application installed from the market on your phone. If you don't...install one now.
#3)Open up your terminal and type in
Code:
su
to gain root access. If you are root the next line should show the
Code:
# symbol
#4)At the next line type in
Code:
flash_image recovery /sdcard/name-of-recovery.img
you will need to replace the code that says name-of-recovery.img with the exact name of the file on your SD card.
#5)Hit enter, wait a few seconds and viola ! you have a recovery again.
Good luck man.

And... if you try to install a stock rom? When starts the HBOOT automatically detect the rom and ask to install. One time you've installed the rom, root & install recovery
I think that work because, It happens to me 1 week ago.
well while rooting my phone, installing the recovery and custom rom.. i made a slight (big) mistake towards the ending of root kit process by hasoon. When we are about to flash the custom rom, we're supposed to wipe everything so there wouldn't be any problems later on. We all know a fresh install always gives the best results. When i was wiping everything, i forgot to put Android Revolution HD on my sd so now i have recovery but i can't install a stock rom, custom rom, and i can't restore my phone. please someone help me.. i unfortunately have to go to work in 20 mins but when i get out of work i would greatly appreciate it if i had a few answers that can help me out with my situation. I don't care if its a hard process. this isn't my first phone i root so im not that noobie (at least i don't think so) so all im asking is to be pointed in the right direction and i would greatly appreciate that. Please and thanks for the help everyone. Hope we're all enjoying this amazing phone
Use the all-in-one toolkit in the dev forum to sideload the ROM from your PC. Rename the ROM something simple like arhd.zip on your PC to make it easier.
This helped me with a similar problem.

thanks for getting me on the right track.. i honestly feel really close to having a phone again but now cwm is messing me up now. whenever i try to sideload.. i keep getting "failed to open driver control: No such file or directory" then it says "restarting adbd..." and then it just repeats with the no driver control. did this happen to u? :-/

I have exactly the same problem. ADB sideload isn't working for me as the device isn't showing up in adb when booted into recovery... I've been doing this for years... I don't know how I could have done something so stupid :'(
EDIT:
I managed to fix this by installing CWM touch recovery and using LINUX to sideload the ROM .zip for installation. Good look sorting it out!
No didn't get anything like that. Maybe if you can get a USB OTG cable and try load the ROM that way through CWM from a USB or micro sd adapter?
I'm not sure if this would work as I haven't tried it - just a suggestion to try.

Sideload from CWM Recovery
Just went through the whole boot loop due to Aroma freezes at the beginning of the installation, but CWM Recovery is still accessible so I went the ADB Sideload method and push the file to be installed because I didn't have any backup on the internal memory.
Just a couple of guides from the guys at XDA that got me back:
make sure you have the most up to date ADB Tools
From your phone go to Recovery>install zip from sideload
From CMD prompt, check that adb can see your device by 'adb devices' command, it should show your device number with sideload next to it.
If it doesn't see it, try 'adb kill-server' and then 'adb start-server'
Then 'adb sideload custom.zip' (custom= name of ROM zip file)
You should see the percentage completion then it will start the installation on your phone.
I am also newbie at this, was panicking and looked around here having this bricked phone next to me for 24hrs, but I asked around and they got me back in.
Good luck.

Code:

Try to have no spaces in the file name. linux based systems hate that.
Then when you boot into recovery, head over to:
install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard -> Download/
You'll find your ROM there.

Hey guys,
First of all I'd like to apoligize for my english skills and a thread if I've posted in a wrong one category.
However, I have REALLY serious problem right now and I'll try to explain. Today I decided to reset my phone (settings - back up & reset). This didin't help me as I was expected therefore I wiped out all the data by using TWRP(yes, I'm a noob). Thought that it will erase everything but the ROM. I tried to do a reboot and the phone did the htc quietly brilliant logo but got caught at the beats audio logo screen and never advanced.
Went into recovery and tried to do a factory reset, and a whole bunch of other things (tried to reboot system, but is says that no os installed). The phone still gets stuck at the same screen. Also, I am unable to get it to be accessible on my computer again. it says that installing new device but nothing happens, so I have no way how to get into sdcard and mount a new ROM or something. Is there any way how to fix it?? How to install a new ROM when USB not working and there's no way to take off SD card.....?

You go into TWRP and enable sideload mode, it will do nothing but say sideload is being started. Then copy whatever ROM you want into the same folder as fastboot and adb. Open up a new command window and type "adb sideload rom.zip", obviously name your ROM "rom.zip" and click enter ... In the command window you should see a percentage figure start to increase as it pushes it to your phone. When it's completed just flash the ROM like normal in TWRP.

Another option is to just use an OTG cable and flash a ROM from a flash drive.

Just tried what you said and still nothing. There're somekinda problems with USB, I'm even unable to connect my phone.. When I typed "adb sideload rom.zip" it was saying "error: device not found" only. Will try to reinstall htc sync drivers, but I think it won't help.. Any other ideas how to back my htc to life (didin't try with OTG cable yet)?

When I typed "adb sideload rom.zip" it was saying "error: device not found" only. Will try to reinstall htc sync drivers, but I think it won't help.. Any other ideas how to back my htc to life (didin't try with OTG cable yet)?

Hey mate,
I just got OTG cable, moved a new Rom into USB stick and tried to mount on TWRP. All I got was "E: Unable to mount '/usb-otg'. Maybe I've missed couple of steps before?
FIXED: All I had to do is to format an USB stick in FAT32. Everything went well and now I can use my phone once again. Thanks a lot for your help, hope it will help to others as well.
Cheers!

Try reformating your internal data (including sdcard) using twrp, plug it to a pc, use mtp to copy the latest full rom to it, flash that and voila.

So it sounds like the phone had a problem with Encryption. Not a problem.. If you can get into the phone set the password for your screen lock and this will reset your encryption. However it seems like you can't get this far. Again no problem. The password issue is there probably isn't a password on TWRP. When it prompts you for a password hit cancel. If this is the case and you may notice your drive space is zero. If it is post here and I will try to help you through that.

If you can get into TWRP after hitting cancel then this isn't a problem. These are the steps you need to take to load Nougat (or any OS) on to your phone.
Boot into your recovery (TWRP in your case).
You will slide to cancel then hit Advanced.
Wipe The phone of everything (System/cache/etc).
Click Sideload and then plug into your computer of choice.
On your computer open a command prompt and type the following:
ADB Devices
This should show you your devices if your phone is connected to the computer. If you do not see anything then install the drivers onto your computer (If it says that you don't have ADB then install Android Bridge onto your system).
Next type:
ADB Sideload <Name of your Nougat image>
Once this is done your phone should be able to boot into the system.

if you are getting error closed your adb bridge session might be the problem.
Unplug your phone from the USB
From your computer try these commands
Code:
adb kill-server
Code:
adb start-server
Then plug the phone back into the usb and put it into sideload on twrp and type
Code:
adb devices
Do you see a device then?

This question seems to keep repeating itself due to missing information on TWRP post about the latest official version being incompatible with OOS 4 encryption method, but that is the explanation. There is a beta release of TWRP in post 550 in that thread that is supposed to fix this.
