Recently I was running Prometheus custom rom, until it started actin funny, so I attempted to reflash cause the phone was getting slow over time. Tried reflashing but it didn't work. Tried other custom roms but each and every one of them kept saying * such n such isn't responding... System UI isn't responding, etc* unbearably slow, I no longer had landscape, sound, and the flashlight didn't work.
re-flashed the h81120N kdz with lg up tool, and the phone initially wouldn't even start, had to re flash 3 times before my phone said I had some upgrades... so it upgraded me to h81120p. Phone ran like a charm and I got all functionality back.
I attempted to at least re root h81120p, it initially worked then the next day I take phone off standby, and it turns off and wont boot past the LG logo screen. if it does the screen goes black. I put the phone in download mode and run lgup, and reflash with a stock h81120p kdz.. sh1t still doesnt work, tried again, sh1t still wont work. ' ventually, phone stopped staying in download mode, and when it does finally get there, LGup no longer recognizes its plugged in * please connect handset*. TF? computer only recognizes "Qualcomm HS-USb QDLoader etc.." under "ports"
Did some googling and was linked to LG flash tool and to a site on here for a .tot restore, which linked to some Vietnamese site I cant read, and one you have to pay premium vip in order to download the file, file seems to not exist anywhere else on the net.
so here I am... Phone barely stays in download mode, when in download mode, ( after multiple attempts of removing usb cable and battery, holding up on the phone while trying different combos of plugging in phone/ cable)LGUP doesnt recognize it, phone does not boot past the Lg logo , a factory reset does nothing.
first my laptop fails, now my phone is gone. wtf? can anyone help?

Hello,
I was previously using LG True version 0.6 ROM but wanted to go back to stock.
So I used it via the NVFlash way, half way through it putting it back to Stock, I accidentally unplugged my device thinking it was finished, now my phone won't boot up. Whenever I try to re-flash it with NVFlash the CMD auto shuts off with a message I can't read since it's that quick at shutting off when trying.
I have tried restoring via Smart Flash but that doesn't work (Tried holding vol down & plugging in but doesn't populate anything).
My phone won't boot.
I've tried re-installing the NVidia drivers, same issues.
The NVFlash gets the different stages before failing (Usually it gets to the point where my phone goes into S/W Upgrade mode, then fails)
I cannot get into S/W Upgrade mode to restore via Smart Flash as nothing happens.
Device manager picks up the phone as an NVidia USB Recovery device.
I appreciate any help as I'm lost without my phone.
Step-by-step guides are preferable since I'm new to flashing etc.
The phone is in download mode.
You need to find a way to send the rom to the phone, so the phones downloads the rom again and starts working.
Try pm'ing Paul over Twitter.
This is fixed now.
Unsure why, but trying a different USB port enabled me to use NV Flash and now booted up fine.
Thanks anyway guys and sorry for wasting your time.
Hey guys, I'm having an annoying problem here.
When I try to connect my phone to a computer, it just goes straight to charging, it doesn't even recognize on either end that a USB is connected to a computer. Now, sometimes I can force it to work, but that is like around 200 tries and it finally connects. I suspect it might be in test mode (but I'm not sure, I tried pressing # on the dialer to see if it pops up but nothing shows), so I've tried to follow the instructions to flash a .tot file by pressing power + volume up, unfortunately, the computer still doesn't recognize anything is connected, and neither does LGNPST. I have all the drivers properly installed (I was able to successfully downgrade to zv7/install gingervolt last week), and am out of ideas on how to get it to work. Any help would be appreciated.
So far I've tried about 6 different cables in four different USB ports to no success.
pow + vol down (hard reset) should work, phone has to be completely off. not even the charging animation. unplug from pc, pull and replace batt, put batt in then plug into usb then hard reset (hold until factory reset pops up) 10 secs or so
this has allways worked for me no matter how badly i messed up the phone.
Well, I tried your method of a hard reset and it still didn't work. Any other ideas? Is there any way to make the computer force to recognize the phone when its in emergency download mode?
I'm having a similar issue on a friend's phone
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1564941 I think this is the solution
I followed the instructions exactly, and LGNPST still isn't noticing anything and won't go into emergency mode......this is frustrating me....if I can just get this thing back to stock and lose cwm i can just take it to the store and get a new one.....
*EDIT* Well it randomly decided to connect to my computer again. The problem now is as soon as it goes into download mode(LGNPST is at around 11% complete and about to start on the Masterbin), it loses the connection to the computer and can't finish flashing the tot file....ugh..
Anyone have any ideas? I'm going crazy over here trying to figure out whats wrong. Every like 100th try, it will connect to the computer still, but if I try and run mt's revoallinone package it fails to unroot (says access is denied or folder not found), or try lgnpst it loses the usb connection the second it goes to that download screen.
Depending on what version your on or where your at as far as root stock etc this may or may not work i am at a loss, try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626198
Yeah I've tried that. On the occassion that the COM port reveals which port is the phone(usually on the 100th time of reconnecting the usb cord and successfully able to go into usb debug) I run that program, only for it to state that this is not a lg revo and auto close before I can get all the log data. Its frustrating...I only started to have this problem when I installed GingerVolt.....
Will adb recognize your device, because i had the same issue on a newer revo, you say your on gingervolt then you should be able to set up root acces and push cwm through adb then boot to cwm and flash sonething anything a recovery or do a wipe from there and i believe i saw a method in the forums for installing a stock os fron a zip. All depending on usb connection though
I have cwm already on there. I want it and the root off and back to stock, but I can never flash a tot and unfortunately I have no experience with adb, but I guess I'll google instructions to unroot via that and see if I can go back to stock via it as well.
Hi Xda,
Yesterday I tried to install cyanogen on my Lg l90, I rooted it and flashed my phone with flashify and tried to install the rom, but during the installation something went wrong. I got into a purple screen that told me that the installation was failed and a ''Ramdump'' occured. So I canceled the installation, but when I tried to reboot my phone. It didn't work. I can't get into recovery mode, download mode or emergency mode. Nothing works. But when I put my phone on the carger without the battery in it. I get an icon of a battery on my screen. And If i plug my phone into my pc, A removable disk connects with a capacity of 64 Mb. I don't know what it is, there are 2 maps on it. Verinfo and Image. If I open the map Verinfo I get a textfile with a number on it. The map Image contains 75 files. I tried everything, getting it back with Odin. But nothing helps. Can you maybe help me?

When pink screen ramdump appears hold power button to restart the phone, it should boot to android.
Then you need to unlock the phone bootloader, check this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-flash-custom-t2839690

Hey guys
Samsung Galaxy Mini 5570 is a pretty old device now and definitely not worth to talk about, but It's for my aunt and she said i HAVE to fix it otherwise she will kick my butt.
This is the whole story:
Phone was running a very low android version (it was 2.1 or something) that i could barely install apps on it (Just installed WhatsApp), I decided to upgrade it to a higher version so i could install other applications like Line and Telegram for her, so basically i had to flash CWM file first because it was required, I flashed it using this link:
http://www.droidthunder.com/root-install-clockworkmod-cwm-recovery-samsung-galaxy-minipop-gt-s5570/
They said flash the cwm file and factory reset your phone but i flashed the cwm file and rebooted my phone without factory reset, everything was working fine :good: but i decided to follow the instruction so i rebooted into the recovery mode and factory reseted my phone (by my phone i mean her phone, but i'm gonna say my phone instead) and guess what, it never booted up again. stuck on Samsung logo.
But i could go into the download and recovery mode, so basically i followed this instruction:
http://www.droidthunder.com/update-samsung-galaxy-minipop-gt-s5570-android-4-2-1-cyanogenmod-10-1/
which is from the same guy, I flashed it using recovery mode and flashed gapps too, everything went normal without any errors. So i rebooted my phone and ............
a black screen poped up, I was really worried because i couldn't boot my phone, nor could i go into the recovery or download mode. I don't know if i could or not but the only thing I'm getting right now is a black screen or a backlight.
The only thing that seems to be working is when i hold Power+Volume UP button, my laptop can detect my phone (as Samsung CDMA Technologies) but can not flash anything using Odin, it stucks on "setup connection" message. Nothing else is working, I tried:
Home+power+volume down
Home+power+volume down+volume up
Power+volume down
Power+home
etc
I also tried a hundred different ways like completely uninstalling the drivers (with or without kies) pulling battery out, try those key combination while battery is out and reinsert battery while holding them but nothing is working.
I found this article yesterday which is for unbricking the hard bricked phones, but ADB can not detect my phone:
http://www.engineerthink.com/blog/2015/11/how-to-unbrick-hard-bricked-android-phone/
Please help me guys, And do not suggest me to take it in Customer Service because i would if i could.
Thanks in advance
Hello all, It has been some time since my last post.
My sisters Note 4 started boot looping the other day... More specifically, it would boot up, then a few min later reboot into recovery. Failure to Mount Cache, or something along those lines... So I did the cache wipe and a FDR. Thought all was well, then a few hours later, booop, rebooted into recovery again.
So she sent me her phone, I went to flash via Odin the latest release from Tmo...it kept failing. So then I did the Kies way... Failed the first time, but after a few tries.. it worked... Phone booted into setup.. YAY... premature YAY. A few min later, the phone rebooted, but this time into download mode....crazy. So I plugged it back into the PC ran odin again.. Fail, Tried different releases of Andriod... Fail... I rebooted it, and now I can't get any recovery or download mode. When I plug the phone into the PC.. it makes the beep boop beep boop.. like a USB device has been connected.. but does not show up in the drives list, or the device manager.. also Odin does not see it.
I thought the battery was the issue, but I check the current out of the ports with my multi Meter... Checked the battery as well and it's healthy.
I have found a few things about teh 1..2..3.. thing, that doesn't work. Saw some about leaving the battery out for a few hours.. that didn't work. I know the vol down-home-power button etc.. I have tried all the basic ways to get into download, even tried ADB (won't work because device isn't recognized.)
Any ides or maybe?....maybe something I haven't seen yet? I am a good googler, and wouln't have posted here if I hadn't kept running into a dead ends... Could it be the mobo in the device?
Thank you in advance!!

Your device is definitely hard bricked to unbrick.
Have a look at link below it might help.

I gave that a shot this morning....no dice. Still nothing...Still get the beep boop beep when i connect the phone, but still can't get it into download mode. I might consider using it as a Frisbee...or target practice...
