guys i need serious help
because for some reason i couldn't flash any roms any more i wanted to go back to stock android 2.1 so i put in uk+fastboot rom (i didnt have a backup)
when i switched my phone on it loaded up the lg logo then when it got to the android animationit got stock screen went black and then the android animation came back loaded and the same kept on happening and my phone didnt load
i have tried another similar 2.1 with fastboot rom but the same thing happens, it's like there is a bootloop
someone please help!!!!!!!!
don't you have a recovery in your phone?
Turn your phone off and go into fastboot mode (Camera + Power) plug in the USB and open a Command Prompt. (If you have Windows Vista or 7, let it search windows update for drivers. DON'T PRESS SKIP! )
Download Fastboot.exe from here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5183281/Fastboot-Windows.zip and extract to the desktop.
In the Command Prompt, type:
Code:
cd Desktop
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
Your phone will restart and you should get past the Android screen. (NOTE: This will delete ALL apps from the internal memory, your SDCard will be 100% safe and intact as it wont get touched)
Hope it helps,
Jack
FIRST TRY THIS:
[HOW-TO] Repair your device if you see only LG logo | Nothing else happens when you boot your device
Make sure you use USB ports that are in back of youre PC, dont use front ones.
Disable LGE Virtual Modem. In your Windows operating system, go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > Modems > Right click on LGE Virtual Modem and click Disable.
Try to reflash your phone again, in the normal way.

-first u need to download: 20E_234-150-64.kdz
-then flash using kdz, here is the method i use (from 4pda, corrected a little by me):
presumably u have all ur needed drivers install1. From the phone remove the battery, memory card and sim card (they're not required)
2. Open the Device Manager on your computer.
3. Hold the phone click the volume down and plug the cable to PC, the phone will display "Download mode" (or the Emergency mode for older versions).
4. In Device Manager, see new equipment in the "modem" - disable it (RMB -> Disable).
5. Run KDZ Updater (eg KDZ_FW_UPD), select the firmware, type of phone should be 3GQCT (i use the old kdz updater, that need window enabler to be turned on)
6. select kdz file and select "????????"
7. wait until the phone shows animation of inserting the battery and close the lid.
- kdz updater will not show that process is over (usually wParam = 205, lParam = 212, wParam = 205, lParam = 213)
- In short, if u see an animation of the battery or the phone itself has started to load, then 100% okay, kdz updater can be forced to close. if u leave ur phone the kdz updater seems to stuck (with wparam=205, iparam=212/213 in it), but if u press the power button and u see the animation, then it's complete)
8. put all the junk (simcard, memory card, etc) in place and enjoy ur phone.
This applies to firmware recovery attempt rollback to 1.6 or just a failed firmware as well (if only i knew this method when Linux Kernel Panic happened to my phone
)then:-after put the battery, turn on ur phone, but dont let it boot to android go to fastboot (camera+power) instead... u'll see that the fastboot is different (at least for me, my old fastboot just show black screen, while this new one has some log (kinda like terminal emulator)
-then fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
-then flash ur recovery (fastboot flash recovery xxxx.img)
-flash any rom u want (using recovery or fastboot)
-done

Lavero,
He doesnt need to reflash his rom,
He just needs to factory reset
It always happens as 2.3 userdata is incompatible with 2.1.

Help.
Booting failed. After downloading "[LINUX] Universal Nexus Linux Toolkit v1.0 (Unlock, Lock, Root, CWM, Factory Reset)" and ran Unlock the bootloader, Flash CWM recovery (Standard or Touch), Root the phone, I didn't foud anything change (not like my cellphone, I can select recovery mode when long push the powerbutton off button), so I made a decision (I beleve that's a huge mistake), I did lock the bootloader and flash Google Factory Image. Finally I realised I couldn't boot OS, but I found at the begining of power on, I could choose "start" "restart bootloader" "recovery mode" "power off" , It said booting faild if I select start or recovery mode.
Is there any way to rescue my tablet?
I have not used that tool.. But i believe you were to have a rom on your data/ media partition on your tablet then boot into recovery and flash the rom.. Sounds like your tablet just has no rom on it.. Try to adb push a rom to data /media then go into cwm and flash it .. you can use the nexus tool kit to do this if you do not know how..
Good Luck...
---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------
oops misread . your saying you can not get to recovery.. Try holding both vol up and down together and then power button from a off state . Before i would say 20 seconds you should get a hard reset.. if not the recovery/ rom flash failed.. You will need to use a Nexus tool kit to put the recovery and rom back.. or use fastboot to push recovery.. boot into recovery and install flash rom....
Sorry
can't see device with usb or adb
I have the same problem. Unforunately, I can't see my device with adb or in windows via the usb port. Without these I can't use the Nexus 7 toolkit. Any idea what I should try next?

How Unbrick nexus 7!!
1) Download the factory. image of nexus 7 before by this https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images.
2) nexus 7 root toolkit for the advanced. utilities it. (Lower left corner of the application), then click Launch.
3) mode is advanced tool you see Quick tools (on the left), select Fastboot-Bootloader me. The middle section (Boot / Flash image) to Flash (Permanent).
4) the file you downloaded from the first) is to run it using 7zip. Do not have a zip file. Recommend that if you are exhausted. The file extension. . Img me into the same folder (for ease of flash. And protection against flash files!) 7zip app and all programs in the community. Reload this App Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.joa.zipperplus7.
Computer loaded from this link. http://www.7-zip.org/download.html.
5) flash file system before the first Boot Click Boot and select the file from 4) the file named boot.img it.
6) flash the Bootloader on file bootloader-tilapia-4.18.img. (The grouper tilapia could be it. If you use the nexus 7 Wifi only).
7) flash the Radio / Baseband file name. radio-tilapia-1231_0.17.0_1205.img it.
8) flash File Recovery file name. recovery.img it.
9) flash file system on the order Userdata System and select the file system.img userdata select userdata.img.
10) completed it. Your machine will reboot. I do not drink coffee.
11) Enjoy! ^ _ ^.
You. Ban flash the wrong files here. I need the name of the file. The only way to tell!
I flash rom 0.2 the risk. I should be very careful.
0.3 If this is the case, you Softbrick it. (Hardbrick may not), then I try this method worked 100%.
There is a 0.4 credit, I thought I was the way I make them up. I want to share with. Please add credit to it. If one on me. Help bring this up with the group, thank you.
0.5 If there is another one your way. The mind of the South. (I have yet to try it as I work) and I like that we do not have information on the nexus (the brick that we do not backup data).
Ways.
First. Downloaded SDK from this link.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html.
Two. Then double-click. Extract the files placed on the desktop.
Three. Downloaded Factory Image (create a new folder and then extract the files to put in it).
. 4 Factory Image extracted successfully, look for a file named flash-all, right-click the file and select edit, then go to delete off-w, then Save and come out.
5. Adt-bundle up to see two folders. Click to select the sdk folder and then uncompress the Factory Image files Copy all (6 files) and put it in a folder. platform-tools.
6th. Then double click the flash-all then lay in wait for a while to update it back to Factory Image kosher by the data is lost. Mod it to disappear, they are only dancing, etc. (it's new to flash).
Note: Do not forget to delete off-w, otherwise everything totally disappeared.
Suggested: do not open a cmd without the headache type. Not faced with the annoying Waiting for device.
0.6 Read carefully and understand it before doing it. Because many steps too. And all the way I say. In the computer, you must install the drivers and I!
It's .7 stock rom nexus 7 Wifi version, select nakasi (grouper) it. The Model 3G or 3G + Wifi. Select nakasig (tilapia).
0.8 I thank everyone. And all the comments too. I suggest that the nexus 7 brick.
0.9 If a brick at me because I was pushed to the nexus 7 root tool v 5.0 to flash stock rom just to watch a lot of this toolkit. + audio bug bit orchestrated. I recommend the use of or nexus root toolkit v1.6.3 wugfresh it.

I got error while flashing and then after power up git little note "boot failed"
I tried to get into fastboot mode, few times i got fastboot but it was not responding and adb saw no devices. after few attemps i got working fastboot mode and then flashed it as normal.
You may be have got attracted to those new roms out there on the internet and would have probably bricked your device.Or maybe did some modding and in worst case somehow your phone bootlooped.
so please follow the guide for unbricking or solving bootloop issues:
CAUTION:
[1] FIRST OF ALL, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE.
[2] NEVER UNPLUG THE USB CABLE WHILE FLASHING IS IN PROGRESS.IT MIGHT PERMANENTLY BRICK UR DEVICE..
ONLY FOR ZENFONE 5,A501CG/00CG
download the required files:
[1] kitkat firmware: for zenfone5(a501cg/00cg only other zf5 users download appropriate firmware from asus support page): http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/A500CG/UL-ASUS_T00F-WW-2.21.40.44-user.zip
[2] adb/fastboot files: from here
[3] device drivers:if you do not have device drivers download and install pc link on pc from asus website,it will automatically install device drivers on your pc.(download from: http://liveupdate01.asus.com/pub/ASUS/LiveUpdate/Release/ZenFone/APP/LinkRim/PCLinkSetup.exe)
IF U R BRICKED PROCEED FROM STEP 2 ELSE FOR BOOTLOOP START FROM STEP 1:
step 1] try booting into recovery and perform a factory rest and wipe cache if this solves the bootloop(in most cases it should).if it still bootloops then follow the following tutorial
step 2]extract the fastboot files on the desktop and paste the firmware(it will be in .zip)in the fastboot folder
step 3]after copying the firmware also extract and copy the recovery.img and fastboot.img file from the firmware into the fastboot folder. (don't remove original firmware zip)
now your fastbootfolder should contain fastboot files+recovery.img+fastboot.img+firmware you dowloaded(compressed in .zip)
step4]boot into the fastboot by switching off the phone and powering it on by power+vol up key until asus logo comes up
if u r returning from some other rom u need to relock the bootloader so scroll some below to see how to relockbootloader.
step5]once you booted to fastboot ,open command promt in fastboot folder (downloaded earlier) by pressing right click+shift in any blank space on folder screen and selecting open command promt here.
in cmd write:
step6]
Code:
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
step7] fastboot reboot-bootloader
wait until reboot is complete then write
step8]
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
step9] now we will be erasing data and cache for a clean flashing
Code:
fastboot clear data
fastboot clear cache
both of them take time and screen may turn off to save power so don't panic
next use volume keys to navigate to recovery and select it using power key .once your phone boots up showing android with belly open symbol press and hold volume up+volume down until recovery menu appears.if that does not open recovery try this:
hold volume down button, click and release vol up button,,,then finally release vol down button.
i admit it brothers,,it is sometimes really difficult to boot into recovery...but keep trying,,it is a bit difficult but is fruitful
if it doesnt appears it may be due to unssucceful flashing, unplug usb cable,force switch off phone by holding power button for few seconds.now again boot in bootloader by power button and vol up key and repeat from :step[8]
once in recovery select apply update from adb
step10] write on cmd
Code:
adb sideload <downloaded firmware name>.zip
for convenience you can rename firmware to kk.zip or any thing you like so command will be adb sideload kk.zip(it may take 15 to 20 mins)
step 11]once thats done select wipe data and cache in recovery and at last select reboot from recovery menu(dont skip this else you may face freezing on welcome screen itself)
hopefully you will boot into homescreen and be patient first bootup may take upto 20 mins.
[UPDATE] HOW TO RELOCK BOOTLOADER{only for zenfone 5 other device users pls google the procedure}
(USE THIS ONLY IF U R RETURNING FROM ANY CUSTOM ROM ITS NOT NEEDED FOR BOOTLOOPING PROBLEM)
hi guys i know u will be needing to relock the bootloader while returning to stock rom..
so what u have do is use the following steps before flashing fastboot.img that is before STEP [5] mentioned above
[1] download this file (its a zip file extract it using password zenfone-five.blogspot.com)...(link=https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0o7qWuG7vvVRE9CV0hJWGRJS2c/view?usp=sharing)
[2]follow the on screen instructions
after the bootloader is locked carry on the steps from step[5]
PLEASE NOTE---THE UNLOCKING/LOCKING TOOL PROVIDED ABOVE IS NIETHER WRITTEN NOR OWNED BY ME...ALL CREDIT GOES TO ITS RESPECTIVE DEVELOPERS
this method can be used for:
1]unbricking
2]returning to stock rom
3]bootloop issues
IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO BOOT INTO FASTBOOT(maybe stuck on usb logo)--see this: http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=33800 it is written by asus guys and will help you
thanks
if you face any issue please ask in comments...........

then try a guide on the forums by the name "de-brick with ruined partitions" i dont remember correctly but you'll find it easily
I'm not rly good with electronics etc, my phone came with root access permissions via Security MIUI app so I installed SuperSu to manage it easier (MIUI app reqiured to manually check each app to allow access), no custom ROM or anything installed, the way it happened was
1. updated supersu from google play
2. entered supersu app,it asked me to update su binary
3. I clicked yes through recovery
4. it rebooted and got bootlooped.
It's stuck at the "mi.com" screen when turning on, can't go into recovery, fastboot mode only shows an image of Miui mascot without any fastboot options. I've followed some tutorials online and got the thing below from minimal adb.

Fastboot will show that android icon only.
No fastboot options will be available there.
Now you need to perform some steps to recover your device..

Also extract this file and put in C Drive.
Now turn your PC on..
And install latest Mi flash tool. http://api.bbs.miui.com/url/MiFlash
Turn your device off. By pulling battery. (Assuming that your device is in bootloop).
Go to fastboot mode (power + volume down)
Now turn your PC on.
Open Mi flash tool.
Connect your device.
Click on refresh button in flash tool.
Now, it will show some random numbers. (This is your device).
Now, select your ROM fastboot file which you downloaded and extracted.

Or easier one click method (which i prefer) if miflash gives some errors in flashing or installing.
Just connect phone in fastboot to pc, open fastboot rom and click on bat files to flash.
If I want to lock the bootloader (EU version) and return the phone to its stock state, then I have to select 'clean all and lock' or is there a specific reason on why selecting 'clean all'?

select 'clean all and lock'
(unlock or lock erase data)
I did this when I first got the phone and flashed stock EU rom, Will do it again if no one else responds with any other methods, and I really need to use phone and hassle each time to set everything up after reflashing
Thanks
Can i re-lock the bootloader after root/Magisk ?

Hi, I'm trying to flash stock MIUI so i can do a clean flash of another custom ROM. But I'm stuck with an error that's MiFlash Tool is giving me.. The error says: Length cannot be less than zero. Parameter name: length. Does anyone know a fix for this? When i try to double click the flash_all bat my cmd just closes instantly when it opens. Pretty new to this so I'm worried i might brick something. Thanks

Did you use the last Miflash?
Did you rename the rom folder?
did you use usb 2 port?
is the phone in fastboot mode?
Yes, latest MiFlash and called the folder 1204. I've tried both usb 2 and 3 with no luck. My phone is in fastboot mode but I must say i tried flashing the stock rom with XiaomiTool v2 since it did recognize my phone but it gave an error while flashing the super.img. So I'm pretty scared if ill reboot it will be stuck.
Also installed all drivers neccesary with my device called android phone -> android bootloader interface in Device Manager

This is surely the first attempt with XiaomiTool v2 that blocks, try to restart and then reflash with Miflash.
Anyway you will not be able to reset it without restarting
Make sure the ROM file has been extracted completely with no corrupted files.
Extract the ROM file in the root directory such as drive C:\ or D:\.
Make sure no single space in the folder name path.
Ensure the Mi Flash tool is run as Administrator (Right-click > Run as administrator).

MiFlash is in this path along with the clean stock rom 12.5.4 global: C:\Program Files\Xiaomi\MiFlash
Should i plug out my phone, restart it, enter fastboot and try again?

Flashing wont work because everytime i press refresh my phone doesn't show up and it gives me the error length can not be less than zero. Tried putting it directly in C:/ too. Thanks for taking your time btw I'm really grateful. I'm also a bit hesitant of restarting my phone because of fear for bootloops. Is that the only option you know?
My end goal is to flash the new hentai OS with android 12 and i was wondering (since i know how to do adb sideload) if i could sideload it now when it's in fastboot. Or should i try to firstly fix going back to stock MIUI?

Did you extract the rom folder from the TGZ file?
Hello,
I tried to make a fresh install of OxygenOS 11 from 12.
After many steps, I am stuck at the bootloader.
Restart and recovery not working, returning to the bootloader.
I can't have access to adb.
I can use fastboot, but can't "fastboot restart fastboot", it simply restart the phone and go to the bootloader.
I tried with MSM and it failed with "Param preload failed".
Can somebody help me ?

I was in a similar position today and fixed it by using the USB cable that came with the phone and I plugged it into a different USB port than the one I was using. I did, however, have a different error.

Boot into twrp, then install OOS11 zip.
Some error message may occurred.
Just ignore it, reboot see if it can boot normally.
If not working, install OOS11 zip into both slot.
Change your USB cable and/or USB port. Your phone isn't bricked.
The param preload error occurs when u dont have proper drivers installed bro. Try reinstalling the drivers. Then install driver attached in this message. To install it follow the instructions below.
1. Download the attached file.
2. Extract it to desktop.
3. Connect ur oneplus phone to ur computer via usb cable.
4. Open device manager in a separate window.
5. Hold both volume keys and power key together for a while, when the computer recognises the phone in EDL mode, go to the device manager.
6. There will be an unknown device called QHS bulk.
7. Right Click and select update driver.
8. Select browse my computer for drivers.
9. Select browse and navigate to the extracted folder.
10. Select next and install.
After all the above process has been done, disconnect ur phone, restart the device and plug it again opening the msm tool and connect through EDL mode and flash ur phone. The param processing error will not come.
Kindly post ur questions next time in the Q&A page and read the instructions in the unbrick tool page of the forum before attempting to post questions bro.
