Hey guys!
So, here's what happened, step by step
I was on a BlissPop 5.1.1, but I wanted to install xposed. I hadn't any truly funcional recovery, only the built-in CM recovery. So I was trying to install one.
I found and .img file of twrp, then I flashed it thru flashtool, as the guides told me. But than I got stuck on twrp and, as I didn't expected it, I didn't made a backup. In another place, I found a guy saying that it was an issue that happens when you lose the misc.img file, and you can skip the 'flashing the ROM all over again' step just by flashing this file.
Then I downloaded it and my device softbricked. And then I look to do the same stuff that we always do when the phone got softbricked: install the stock firmware all over again.
I know I did a lot of mistakes and complicated the whole thing, but here was when something that I didn't know how to fix appeared:
I put it on flash mode, green light, but it just can't flash the tft file. The device keeps connecting/disconnecting over and over and when it finally starts to flash, I got the message "error in the processHeader: 5 - access denied" and I can't find a solution anywhere, not anyone with the same issue, nothing.
Right now I'm installing the PC companion to check if it is a driver problem, but I need to hear from you guys some advice to fix this.
Thanks a lot

I've tryed to root the tattoo with superoneclick but it failed to root, since and the end came across some supposely memory errors and when when I boot into system its all apparently the same. I guessed it hadn't done anything so I jumped to the method as described on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5835675&postcount=1
I even done the gold card. And tried it. it does some command lines with no errors and at the end it boots normally. The problem is when I try to go to recovery mode it doesn't go to it and when I try to go to normal stock boot loader it algo fails. It tries to enter, I even see the screen for some part of a second but it just doesn't enters.
It boots aparently with no errors into to the system, but somehow somethings seem not work properly like factory reset and screen callibration.
It seems I've got stuck between halfway to nothing.
I just wanted some 2.3.3 goodness to my haunt and I'm afraid I've just messed up her phone!
Any smart and easy solutions? Even back to full stock would be good!
Thanks in advanced!
you can allways (well, as long as its not completely bricked) flash a RUU to go back to stock rom.
for me first time rooting also failed (dont remember the errors exactly), then i installed the RUU, tried rooting again and it worked.

I thought that could be a solution! I promissed I've been trying to resolve this situation for about 4 days. And I did it!!!
Everytime I ran a root solution it said it failed but they also said it was rooted.
tried again using this app:

Used the CM7 recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=854152) with described method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9192029&postcount=21
i thought the problem could be not the rooting part but the flashing of the recovery.
Did it step by step and worked!
Thank you very much for your reply!
Hello.
A couple of weeks ago I rooted my phone using SuperOneClick. Then I had to travel to the military and I've been here since then, and just a few days ago I downloaded Clockwork ROM Manager thing from Google Play and flashed CWM Recovery to my phone. Then I downloaded DjangoManouche Guestekernel 1.7, rebooted to recovery, wiped data and cache, proceeded to install zip from sdcard. I got to the aroma installer, chose all my settings, but the aroma installer stops and goes back to CWM Recovery after like 30 seconds. The Aroma installer is in the meantime stuck at 0%, but it does show a lot of files at the bottom it is going through. It stops at a different file everytime, stopping for 2 seconds before it goes back to CWM Recovery.
Now it refuses to reboot. It displays the LG logo shortly, screen goes black, comes light back on the screen, then goes black again, then displays LG logo for a while. Then it does that same process again. How do I fix this?
I am headed out of this camp on Monday, and I would really, really appreciate it if someone could help me get my phone working before then. I don't wanna travel completely isolated from the world in case something was to happen.
Thanks a lot if you bother to answer - and please, don't just skip this thread! This is really, really important I get working. Never had problems with this before so thought it would work, but unfortunately it didn't. Bad timing of me, I know.
Appreciate it!
Tried 2 different ROMs, one the DjangoManouche SpicaOC as it does not use Aroma installer, as well as temasek unofficial CM7 Kang.
Both get same message.
"Installing update...
E: Error in /external_sd/InsertRomName.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted"
I googled this error and found I have wrong update binary. How do I change this? I want to try install CWM again but I can't do that as far as I know without USB debugging or booting into Android. What program can I use to fix this? Please guys, I really need your help...
Tried following an NVFlash tutorial I found for the Optimus 2X but not sure whether it was successful or not. I followed this guide: (I was unable to link it cause I dont have 10 posts, it's called NVFlash Setup Instructions + Drivers on Modaco.com)
When I then proceed to run the nvflash.exe I get a cmd window pop up with some text for a 1/100th of a second, rendering me unable to read it. Tried print screening it but with no luck. How do I get this to stay for a little longer? Is there any other way to fix this? And what would I do after I NVflashed my phone?

with the nvflash method.....read it carefully....u just need to double click on flash.bat file and not nvflash.exe file
Hope it helps/....if you need more help let me know mate
EDIT: I would suggest that you use the same method but use this file with the same procedures of nvflash method...this ROM is pre-rooted with CWM clean stock R with the latest Baseband and good features....you can also use a custom ROM after that....dont forget to complete the initial setup if you want to use it
HOMERO'S ROM all credits to Homero2
Thanks a lot for replying! I read a lot about how I should use the .bat file, but there was no .bat file accompanying my download of NVFlash. Using CMD and cd command I got to do that sync command. Now downloading that Homero ROM of yours, but not entirely sure how I flash that file onto my phone? I have no .bat file in my NVflash so where can I find one if I need to to flash that ROM? Does it come with the ROM download maybe?
And currently quite happy as it appears I will get my phone working before I go travelling. Then I can fix it properly with DjangoManouche when I arrive.
EDIT: With the CWM recovery I get from this flash, can I use that to install DjangoManouche guestekernel with aroma installer? From what I understood the version of cwm recovery I had was what screwed it up, so it may work now?
With Homero ROM you will also get ripped and with CWM.you can then make a factory reset and then flash DM ROM by carburano.I have been using that for more than one year....best stock based ROM till ics arrived....
Still waiting for his magic in ics
Hope it helps you
O2X with Magical ROM and supersonic kernels from my buddies
Hi everyone. I have a problem I can't seem to resolve. I tried updating to the OTA jellybean update a couple weeks ago, it seemed to go ok. I then tried to go back to an earlier version of eclipse rom I was using. Now when I power on the phone I get AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Flash Failure). I can select normal boot and it will go into my ICS Rom that I have loaded in slot 1 after going thru my safestrap recovery program. So the phone is not unusable, just very annoying to use. My question is, how can I get the fastboot flash mode flash failure warning to not show up every time I reboot the phone? I've tried loading the Stock JB Rom from verizon, Blur_Version.6.7.246.xt875.verizon.en.us with RSD Lite, but when I try to extract the files with RSD, I get the error "Please check input file. Either XML format is wrong or image files associated with it are missing." I just want to be able to get a stock rom back on my phone, without any errors when I boot it, I don't care if I have root, safestrap, or anything else, I just want a properly working phone. Any suggestions how to get rid of the boot flash failure warning? Thanks!!!! Richard
Update.... Looks like I really screwed it up now. Tried to rsd lite a JB rom, got about 1/2 way, to copying system image, then hung up. Now when I reboot, it won't even go into recovery or normal mode... Stoopid operator malfunction..... Any suggestions on which rom I can try to install via RSD Lite to help get it back going? It will still go into AP fastboot mode.
He's dead, Jim. Nothing is working, no rom will load, they either fail or hang up. Now both of my batteries are dead, and it won't even try to do anything. Any suggestions?? Guess I'm in the market for another phone. Maybe some of the gurus on here have some advice. Thx.
He's alive, Jim!!!!!

Thanks to some other posts on here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236980 I tried installing the system and preinstall img files manually thru moto fastboot. They seemed to hang up after a few minutes, but I tried to install the files anyway. Afterwards, I was able to get into recovery mode and do a system wipe and reinstall the JB rom that I had on my SD card. Now a couple hours later, I got the pageplus 4g issue fixed again, and just finished rooting it with the tutorial on XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2256439.
You guys are awesome! Thanks for all your hard work.
Hey all i apologize in advance im really new to all this stuff. I have a d950 it was rooted (cwm kept saying root was lost) and im using the stock ROM. The other day i got an update notification on my phone i kept ignoring it for a few days and one day i turn my phone over and its in CWM. I tried to use the restores that i had created with no luck and somehow ended up erasing my phone as in all the restores and anything else is gone. I have been lurking here for about a week trying different things the phone wont boot to any mode except CWM. First the drivers would not work with the phone ended up having to modify the google usb drivers since the lg ones would not work. I was then able to push stock firmware that i found into the phone but when i try to install it says installation aborted after about a second. I have read that its more then likely because it isnt compatible with my phone but it said it was for the d950. I then tried to enter fastboot with no luck just still cycling between the LG logo or CWM. At this point any help would be appreciated before i give up and have to get another phone.

Hi there,
I got a bricked G5S+, which I reported in another thread already.
It was booting, showing the blue Motorola screen but ended up with a lying down android with a red questionmark and saying 'no command'.
That happened after I rebootet the cellphone for a longer time.
I read through a couple of threads and finally decided, I need to flash stock again.
I did not have switched on USB debugging and so on, as the phone was quite new to me and now cannot access android anymore to do so.
Anyway I thought: fine: I will just flash the stock OS again taking care of the software defect.
After having had some issues I flashed Sanders (SANDERS_NPS26.116-26_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml) following that thread here:
https://animetrick.com/flash-stock-rom-moto-g5s-plus-locked-bootloader-2018/
It is quite similar as this thread, which deals with installing a stock OS to a bootloader-locked phone:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/solution-to-flash-stock-romfactory-t3691396
The thing is I followed all steps but still get the same error:
A lying down android with a red questionmark and saying 'no command'.
Does anyone have an idea what else to try?
I am not aversed to install a custom Rom, such as the official RR v6.0.0, but I have no idea how to do so with a currently bricked phone.
Maybe you guys have a solution for me to unbrick and finally use my phone again.
Thanks a lot!

Hey bro Im not sure if you still need help but, if so can you try to boot into a recovery?
Hi Carlos,
yes I still need help.
I can boot into recovery. And fastboot runs and detects the phone, too.
Any idea what I can do?
Go ahead and download twrp from the Roms sections and also begin the process to unlock the boot loader, we can see if it still can be done without having enabled the setting in the developer sections, and if so we can either then flash the recovery and a custom rom or install stock again.
Sent from my iDevice running Smoothshake v11.3.1
I solved my problem:
It was the SD card. I cannot believe it.
I got myself another G5S Plus and swapped everything:
Same issue.
So I removed the memory card and all good again.
There is no need anymore to install a custom rom (at least not currently )
I am quite sad though not having figured that out earlier, becoz all my data is lost now....
Thanks for your help though!
I have fallen into same issue, i cannot install any custom rom or recovery to it but i can access fastboot & one recovery that has update via adb sideload / sd card but nothing works, shows failed line 2 error / install aborted .
the device just showing oem locked in fastboot & rom install or recovery install fails & says cause too many links
the phone starts & stucks after the motorola logo
anybody with any idea?
