Help!! My L7 is not working,black screen, no charges, QHSUSB_DLOAD what to do? - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have bought a L7 and when I have it the phone is not working, the seller doesnt want to take my money back so I need help with this :S!
No appears to do anything when connected to charger
No led
No vibrates
No emergency mode
When I connect it to my PC it recognizes it as QHSUSB_DLOAD, but neither KDZ or LG update program recognize it :S!!
Someone know how to reinstall OS I think is software issue but I dont know how fix it
Thanks!

Try following the instruction I got from a website.
What is 'qhsusb_dolad' ?It is the situation when you can't boot into your phone,recovery mode and any other visible interface. When you connected your phone to the PC, the LED will flash and your PC will show that they were searching for the drivers needed(win7/8) but they couldn't find .......If it is commom for you to remove the battery when the phone did not shutdown completely or when you ran into 'No-Response' , as time goes by ,it will be inevitable that you come across the 'QHSUSB_DLOAD' situation .
But from now on ,you needn't worry about that for I have found a way out.
Tools needed:
Hardware: A PC running XP and higher (win7/8 recommended) and your usb cable
Software : MIflash and MIAssistent and a certain mi update rom(It is a *.exe file---fastboot file)
Steps :
1. Install the first two softwares described above(Run as administrator) in your PC (You need to disable the enforcement of digital signature while on win8 in the advanced startup (press 7 or F7)
2.Boot into fastboot mode(you just need to do with your two buttons and usually you cann't see the interface for your screen just won't show in this situation) before connecting to PC
3.Connect you MI2/S to your PC via the usb cable and the pc will recongnise it in the device manager panel(if not, update its driver in the unknown device---qhsusb_dload)
4.Open the miflash and click fresh to load your phone's serial number
5.Flash the update rom(the self-extracted-to folder) into your phone and reboot .
Explanations:
Miassistant contains the 'qhsusb_dload' driver for any phone and it enables the PC(Miflash) to recongnise your CPU serial which is the key part of updating by wire.
Tips:
Try this with your other phone, I believe it will work ,too.
I'm supposed to just copy/paste the link.. but the protocol won't let me since I still don't have more than 10 posts. I just want to help. Try this

When you connect the phone to the PC, does it loader any driver? Use Device Manager to check...
If it loads the QLoader driver, use the "Emergency Mode" in GNQC 1.6.9.0.
If no driver loads, disconnect the phone and press the power button for 30 secs and try again.
If this also fails, wait a day for the device discharge, press the power button for 30 secs and try again...
Let me know how it went...

Try to flash again.
If that messege apears again just press the power button of the phone for a few secs without disconnecting from the PC.
The download should begin. If not change the Mode to Normal and press the power button for a few secs.
Dont disconnect the phone from the PC, cause that messege apears because the GNQC is unable to confirm the state of the phone. By pressing the power button you are refreshing the connecting and the GNQC should detect the state of the phone.
Also you can try this using another USB port on your PC.

Now i am stuck here with my device dead for the past two weeks. please any one with an idea how to fix this issue?

Actually my device doesn't even come on for me to do all that you said, i tried repairing drivers and all that but it still detects as USB INPUT DEVICE under HUMAN INTERFACE DEVICES. i need my device to detect as qualcomm device before GNQC downloader can detect it. my issue is very different here. because GNQC can't see my device since my device is not being detected the rightful way after all. i will deeply appreciate the solution. Thanks
did u fix it??
U can fix ? I have the same problem since three weeks and nothing... this a a sh*t... only recognized by HID... In other ocassion before of this, i can flash my Gionee but now i cant:crying:
Another one here who saw how the phone bricked after being flashed with GnQc, now when I plug the Usb on the Pc or with wall charger, the red light keep lit and it seems like it will like this forever. I am thinking of trying to get out the screen and disconnect the battery, seems like the phone is stuck on some strange mode.
Thanks.
This feel that not have solution....
Can any one fix it ?
i also got stuck . have given to gionee care they are unable to figure what was the actuall problem

[Q] Having driver issues in Download mode VS980

I have a rooted Verizon LG G2 that I somehow screwed up when going to Lollipop from KitKat. I have lost my 3G and LTE capabilities, thus no data unless connected to WiFi. From what I have read, it sounds like I need to try to revert to stock and start over. This is where I am having my major issues. I have tried the .kdz and the .tot methods of returning my phone to stock firmware. Upon placing my phone into Download mode on both a PC and a laptop (Windows 7 on both) my phone is at best recognized as a USB Modem Phone ADB Port, not the Port (COM LPT) that is required for either method to work. What can I do to get my phone to register as the Serial Port so that the LG Flash Tools will recognize it? (I have installed the most recent LG VZW Drivers and have uninstalled other drivers without any changes). Thanks
!bump having the same issue myself

I have a rooted Verizon LG G2 that I somehow screwed up when going to Lollipop from KitKat. I have lost my 3G and LTE capabilities, thus no data unless connected to WiFi. From what I have read, it sounds like I need to try to revert to stock and start over. This is where I am having my major issues. I have tried the .kdz and the .tot methods of returning my phone to stock firmware. Upon placing my phone into Download mode on both a PC and a laptop (Windows 7 on both) my phone is at best recognized as a USB Modem Phone ADB Port, not the Port (COM LPT) that is required for either method to work. What can I do to get my phone to register as the Serial Port so that the LG Flash Tools will recognize it? (I have installed the most recent LG VZW Drivers and have uninstalled other drivers without any changes). Thanks

Screenshots, exact details, please. Maybe it's a simple driver fix or maybe it's a scary Qcomm diag mode issue (hopefully the good one). You've installed the latest drivers from LG, yes (3.12 or 3.13)? You often (usually) have to manually update the driver in Device Manager. Nothing listed under COM ports at all while the phone is in download mode?
Standard what-have-you:
Install latest LG Drivers (can be downloaded from LG support website).
Open Windows Device Manager and look under COM Ports for the LG device. Right-click on device, choose properties, and change the COM port to Port 41. Even if it says that port is already in use, do it anyways. This the port that LG Flash Tools uses to flash their stock images.
NOTE: Some tutorials will tell you to set your computers date back to make LG Flash Tools work: that is incorrect with version 1.8x and unnecessary, ignore them.
After the port is set to 41, unplug the USB cable from the phone, then open up LGFlashTools.exe. Select the correct VS980 .dll file and select the TOT file to flash. Press OK. Then press the yellow arrow in the upper left of the main LG Flash Tools window. It will think for a minute, then say Ready! or some such crap in the upper left port 41 box. Then you plug the USB cable back into the phone and it will start flashing. You do not have to wait until it reaches 100%, only until the phone fully boots up and presents you with the LG Setup Wizard (1st thing it asks for is your language preference). After you get there just close the LG Flash Tools program.
If it does not successfully flash:
-- Make sure you connect the USB cable directly to a motherboard port, do *not* use a hub.
-- Do not connect or remove others devices to your system until the flashing is done, as I've had that bork my flash before.

LG site has latest VS980 drivers as 2.18
When I plug in my phone and download mode starts, Device Manager will intially show it under 'Other Devices' as 'Android'. Then it will load a generic Android ADB driver. If I hijack the driver install I can manually install an LG Port (COM and LPT) driver, but it will error upon install. It will still show with a yellow exclamation point. I can still change the Port here, but its the error that I think is holding everything up.
I've tried both the kdz and tot method to no avail.
I've tried on a PC, both front and rear USB ports, and a laptop (both USB ports) and no luck.
Any other info I can provide to you? Thanks for helping

Stick to the rear USB ports on the PC, definitely. I've sometimes had it work via a hub, sometimes not (more often not).
So you've chosen the LGE AndroidNet driver, yes? And at this point you don't have the LG Flash Tools open yet, yes? It's best to keep that closed until after you've set the COM port to 41 (probably safe either way, but it does flag a conflict in com ports sometimes, which IME, doesn't matter, but still). While leaving the phone plugged into the USB, is that exclamation point still there after reboot? Screenshots? What error message does it provide under the devices status when you choose Right-click->Propertires(/Alt+Enter)?
Info
I've attached screenshots of the driver error as I install it and its properties. I've also attached shots of using the kdz method showing that nothing is detected when I press the phone information button, and also a shot of the error saying phone is disconnected when starting the flash process.

Oh gosh, I'm sorry, I didn't see this reply! XDA sometimes notifies me of replies, sometimes it doesn't. Often it doesn't, grrrr! Are you still stuck here? lol. crap, so sorry.
EDIT:
Oh, when I was mentioning port 41 I think was thinking LG Flash Tools for TOT files, no the 2014 version (which I haven't used in a while).
But that's moot, thanks to the 'device cannot start' error. This should put it into perspective:
- Uninstall all the drivers for that, all LG drivers, all Android drivers, kill 'em all -- this includes uninstalling all LG smartphone software, too. (Note: using something like UninstallTool is always best (IObit has a bloatware-laden tool like that that's free), but surely the Windows Installer should uninstall fine.)
- Reboot.
- Reinstall LG Drivers with their installer.
- Boot device into Android then plug in USB.
Windows should do the usual finding drivers rigamarole, and if it's taking a long time (more than 30 seconds or so), unplug device, the Windows add drivers dialogs should disappear, then plug it back in.
- Check Device Manager to make sure the drivers automatically loaded up, check the details on each of the drivers to make sure it's the LG driver (since you should have no other LG or Android drivers installed at this point it should be).
- If exclamation point next to device, the do the update driver thing and choose the correct LG driver.
- Reboot Windows.
- Unplug device.
- Put device in 'Download Mode' and connect USB (use motherboard ports if on desktop, not hub or case ports; never had port problem on laptop).
- Check Device Manager to see if drivers auto-found it (usually not, for me).
- Update them to LG drivers.
Is the driver still throwing up errors at this point?
Oh, when in Device Manager, select the device, then choose from the menubar View->Device by Connection. It will show the other drivers loaded for that device, and more importantly, it will show just where the device is connected to. A screenshot of that would be mucho helpful if your problem still persists.
Again, sorry I didn't get back to you. D:
Ha ha, I wasn't notified of this either. I never did get it to work. Because what I was really looking for was to get my radios working again, I had another member suggest going to a ;stock-ish' rom and flashing it (xdabbeb) along with the 12b bootstack. Lo and behold this worked for me. I was able to get my phone to show up via ADB so that I could push the files over. I never could get the .tot or .kdz to work, but I don't have the need to continue on at this point.
Thanks for your help though!
hello BEEVE i have screwed my lg g2 in the same way so can you please tell me how did you fix it or give me a link or something anything is fine
thanks in advance
I ended up flashing to a Rom that was based on stock LG. Been awhile so I don't remember. It seemed to help after a while. I also used the LTE Discovery app whenever I wasn't using my phone. The thought was that it would trick it into working. I think what actually ended up working was time. It just eventually started working better. Maybe a combination of everything, I don't know. I no longer use the phone so it's a little sketchy.

[Q] Galaxy S-5360 No Download Mode, but Recovery Mode Works

I am new to posting, but I have followed XDA for a long time and used it to install custom ROM's on other phones. However, I now have a problem with my wife's Samsung Galaxy GT-S5360L. I have searched for hours, but can not find a solution.
The phone is stuck in a boot loop. I can enter stock recovery mode. When I try to perform a factory reset, I get the following message:
E:format folume: rfs format failed on /dev/stl11
formatting /cache
Data wipe complete
After wiping the cache partition, the phone continues to be stuck in the same boot loop after reboot (Samsung logo appears on screen, followed by animation, back to Samsung logo).
The phone will not enter into download mode. When I press power+volume down+home, I see a white screen, followed by a black sreen, followed by another white screen. the suggested method of removing the battery, SIM, and SD card, and plugging into the computer while holding both volume buttons does not work. Odin will not recognize that the phone is connected.
I tried to connect the phone to two different computers. One runs Linux mint with Windows XP on a VM. This computer has always worked for flashing ROM's to other phones. Odin would not recognize the phone, and I received messages that the device was not properly installed.
I then tried to connect the phone to another computer with Windows Vista. This PC has Kies installed and Samsung drivers. Kies would not connect to the phone, and I also received messages that the device was not properly installed. Odin would not recognize the phone. I should note that the phone has interfaced with this computer sucessfully before.
This phone has never had a custom recovery or ROMs installed. It only has the original stock ROM. Is the phone's hardware defective, or can it somehow be fixed? Please post any links to threads that I may have missed. Thanks.
Download mode is only effected by a change in bootloader normally by Flashing incompatible firmware or a hardware fault
For flashing via odin kies is not required - its useless as it's not compaitable with the galaxy y for this purpose
You just need the Samsung USB drivers available from my firmware thread (links in signature)
It maybe possible to still flash the device
Once USB drivers installed
Enter download mode
Connect USB to pc
When the white screen appears push Vol up
Wait a few seconds
Open odin
Put the 3 firmware files in their places & flash
If it doesn't flash you will either need to flash a new bootloader via a jtag (repair shop) Or replace the motherboard - either way unless you can get it done very cheap it's more economical to buy a new phone
Thank you marcussmith2626 for your sound advice. The phone is working again. I will share the problems I solved in order to flash the stock ROM. Hopefully this will help anyone else that may have a similar problem.
The Samsung USB drivers had been previously installed on my PC running windows vista. I installed the drivers so that I did not have to use the bloated Kies software. However, when I tried to connect the corrupted phone to the PC via USB, it was not recognized, even though the correct drivers were installed. Below is the procedure I had to follow in order to connect the phone:
1. I connected the phone to the computer via USB. The phone had the battery installed and was powered off. After connecting to the computer, the phone started charging (battery icon on screen). Connecting in download mode at this point did not work. The phone must be powered off.
2. When the "found new hardware" notification box appeared, I had to make a note of each device that had been discovered.
3. I then had to open Device Manager from the control panel and find each device (the name in Device Manager matched the name in the new hardware notification).
4. I right clicked on each unknown device and selected "update driver software"
5. In the next menu, I selected "Browse my computer for driver software"
6. In the following menu, I selected "Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer"
7. This brought up a list currently installed drivers. I selected the Samsung phone driver.
8. The driver then installed for the selected device..
9. Steps 2 through 9 were repeated for each new device discovered by Windows (each device listed in the "found new hardware" dialog).
10. I started the phone in boot mode (power+home+volume down, phone still connected to PC). I saw only a white screen. However, when I pressed the volume up button, the phone connected to the PC. Odin recoginized the phone and the stock ROM was flashed.
So, even if you only see a white screen, download mode can still be active. In my case, the drivers on the PC were not working correctly, probably due to the corruption of the original stock ROM. The drivers can only be added on my PC using the above method. The option to choose from a list of currently installed drivers was not available from the found new hardware wizzard.
Also, I will also say for reference that in the USA, the stock ROM from Brazil is the one that should be used so that the phone broadcasts on the proper GSM frequencies.

MSM8994DownloadTool.exe Won't Work For My OPT

MSM8994DownloadTool.exe Won't Work For Me
I need help.
My phone is stuck on the fastboot screen, meaning I can only Power if off and into Fastboot (using the Vol+ and Power buttons). Other than that, it does nothing. I cannot get into the OS at all, which means I can't enable USB debugging or anything. Fastboot recognizes my device, which is a OnePlus Two), but ADB won't, nor will my Windows 7 PC as a USB device. With that in mind, I followed all the steps in the posted guide. I get all the way to running the "MSM8994DownloadTool.exe" and nothing happens. Its as if the Recovery Tool doesn't even see my device. So, I'm really stuck and don't know what to do.
For clarity, here's exactly what I did (see below). I get all the way to Section B, Step 2 and that's where it breaks down. There's no different line, and no process ever runs, even after waiting 30 minutes. I ran the tool as Administrator, but still no luck. Can anyone help me? Just as additional info, my Mac also does not recognize my OPT as a USB device. Also, I tried my backup USB-C cable from the OEM, with the same results.
A. Install the Certificates followed by the Qualcomm drivers.
1. Restart your computer with Driver Signature Enforcement Disabled (Advanced Startup) Let me Google it For You
2. Open the folder "qc" and install the Test Certificate in the following Stores: Trusted Root, Trusted Publisher, Third-Party Root and Personal
3. Run the Qualcomm setup wizard (also located in the qc folder)
4. When completed, restart your PC again with Driver Signature Enforcement Disabled (Advanced Startup)
5. Turn off your phone and disconnect the USB cable from the phone.
6. Hold vol-up and plug in the USB(Do not press Power button). The screen will stay black but you will hear a sound from windows that a device is attached.
7. The driver should now automatically install. If not, go to device manager and right click "Unknown Device" and click "Update Driver" Search up the QC folder and press ok. The driver should now install. (Got the RELINK issue? Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1&postcount=46)
B. Flashing Process
1. Open the OnePlus2_14_A.11_151211 folder and open "MSM8994DownloadTool.exe"
2. Look if your phone is detected in the list. everything is Chinese but you will see one row with different chinese text from the rest within the list. If not, recheck if driver is detected in Device Manager (If not, go back to Step A - Line 4).
I think you have a bad download, try downloading it again and download the 3.0.2 version if you can.

I've bricked my op2 a while ago. I'm a real noob so I don't know if it will work but have you installed the adb mac drivers or try "fastboot continue" while in fastboot. Just don't give up and keep try. You have absolutely nothing to lose.

Thank you very much. I have the latest version, but still nothing. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but my OPT wasn't being recognized as a USB device even before I screwed up. That leads me to believe my OPT USB is maybe not functional. ADB doesn't recognize it at, nor will the MP...DownloadTool.exe. I'm guessing it is just hard-bricked since I have no other way (besides USB) to interface with the device.

Try connecting your OPT to some other guys pc and see, it may be because of your pc's end that its not getting connected.
And if the same thing happens with a different pc then yeah your usb port or something is fried. Try going to service center if the same thing happens again.
