Well, me being a little riskay was messing with my phone flashing new roms and themes and stuff kinda thinks I really may have bricked or fried my battery. The last thing I downloaded was a recovery image for the Mytouch from HTC. My phone attempted to boot back up and the HTC screen came on. I pulled the battery out b/c it wasn't going anywhere (pretty sure I didn't unplug from my computer ) And put my battery back in and tried to turn on. Anyways it won't charge, turn on or anything. Bricked or fried battery?
No bashing please, just asking a ? before I decide to make an executive decision !!

the only thing that shouldve bricked the phone was a radio flash an spl to my knowledge read up on installing adb and after its installed properly see if the phone is recognized when you turn it on if it is then you should be able to get it back

O I got what you said... Ive been having issues trying to download SDK for my computer. Windows says it's not installed properly..ive tried about a million dam times.
Different computer
Ok i think i figured it out. I ran CMD and typed C:\android-sdk-windows\tools then adb devices I don't see my device listed. Then adb shell :error device not found.
OK so i think not sure if this would do anything but when i put my sd card into my computer it tells me that there are problems with some of the files on my sd card. Im thinking that the recovery image that was flashed was corrupted.
Do we think making a gold card would maybe work??
Dead or Bricked?
I have the same situation...
I have recently bought a MT3G second hand....
When I first got the phone, it worked fine, but the battery was low, but I managed to wipe it before it eventually died (stooooppppiiiid).
Now, when I plug it in, nothing happens. When I hit the power button, the only thing that happens is the red LED blinks...thats it.
I tried multiple chargers, none of them work.
Is it bricked or is the battery dead?

Try and swap out the battery I did have this happen within one month of buy a mytouch, same red led. Go into a store and ask them to swap in a new battery.
If it is the battery buy a new one and hold on to the packaging, put in the old battery and return it to a different tmobile
i have a messed up d2 i bootstrapped the d2 and flashed miui thinking it was for the non global d2 but its was for the globla now i have no boot loader and cannot bootsrap to to another rom any help ! i want sfb but again no bootloader any ideas ?
and once i try bootloader its a blank screen then it gose to a screen w the m logo and says alert: please disconnect all cables and remove batter ans re insert batter to reboot the phone 1
need help please anyone ?
You're powering on while you press the up arrow?
yes i am and when i do it will just boot into the rom or a black screen w/ the m symbol and says alert fault detected please unplug all cables and remove ans reinsert batter and power on phone ! idk how to fix this !
you're probably best just googling it, but there's a program that I believe can sbf your phone even if bootloader won't come up.

I had the same problem on LG Venice from flashing the wrong recovery. If you get the right drivers- LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN38AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.8.1 and the app from LG called LG Support Tool. The installer is called B2CAppSetup. From the screen with the "download in progress Dont unplug cable" it will wipe the phone and put it back stock with an upgrade. To do this you have to register your phone with LG. Once it is done the phone worked great, but i havent been able to root it again. Beats a phone that doesnt work. rcalzcalhoun

Try a spare battery. And check if your battery serial starts with BD . Then you need to change it right away.

Remove battery and wait 30 seconds then replace the battery then plug the charger
into the phone and wait 20 minutes before turning the phone back on.
If it does not bootloop it means the battery just needs to charge.
Good luck!
switch off ur phone n charge it fully n give a factory reset from recovery mode.

Hi, my Le pro 3 (x727) is stuck on the boot screen. It shows the leeco boot screen then vibrates twice and then shuts off and repeat the process. My phone was unrooted and completely stock. Is it bricked? should I try to unbrick using the methods on this forum?

Okay can you provide more info
You say that it has never been rooted and never on a custom rom?
How long did you have the phone?
Were you using the stock charger and cable?
If its just a Brick
You can follow my instructions to unbrick.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/how-to/unbrick-leeco-phones-leeco-variants-t3847220
Read several times and properly install the software and drivers on your PC,. ( I cannot stress enough that you read the instructions of the OP and the first post underneath) If your phone is bricked those instructions will repair it.
If its hardware
Unfortunately, your issue could be a bad battery. Which is no big deal they only cost $8
If you have always used stock, and the issue is hardware its probably just the battery alone and nothing worse.
If it is something worse, it could be the usb card which is $13, I doubt that you would have a more serious issue such as a fried motherboard.
Good Luck
Let me know how it goes, on the unbricking thread.

I had the phone on release date which was november 2016 i think. Yeah, I have never tried to root or install a custom rom. I am using an anker powerline+ since the original cable didnt last long, still using the original charger. I have tried both the cable and the charger on a Nintendo Switch and it seem to work fine.
I am currently downloading the files from your guide, the big one is taking too long though. Do you have any other link for
le_zl1_qfil_ufs_fix.zip?
Other observation/s:
The phone warms up when left on charge, no notification light though.
The phone's battery life was degrading which I thought was natural. Last time I check through Accubattery was at 84%.
Before the phone died, I checked the time through my phone which was 1:30 am and is less than 25% battery, woke up at 4:30 am and its dead. Phone was unplugged during that span.

It sound like the battery stats were off. Try leaving it plugged in overnight and then use this Qfil

Thanks, but i got it back alive just this morning without flashing . I left it on repair mode (vol + - power) for a whole day to drain the battery. Then once I plugged it to the charger, it was running normally again. Is there any way to reset the battery stats?

That's great news! So apparently you had built up static discharge. In the past you could resolve this issue by simply taking the battery out and reseating it.
To clear battery stats
Boot to recovery , open file manager, go to data/system the down at the bottom you wiil find the batterystats.bin delete it and then reboot to system.
I do this about twice a month.
Take care, I am glad you got it working.

Im pretty new to this, but on recovery I can only see update and recover(format). I suppose I need a tool or something. I already downloaded flash2 and qfil, are those the tools that i need?

You don't need those files unless you have a brick. Go to the TWRP website for learning about the functions of TWRP

Hey, sorry to bug you again but my phone went back to bootloop. I tried draining the battery again but this time it didnt work. I went on and flash qfil and was successful at it. The problems is, right after flasing qfil, I rebooted the phone by long pressing the power button, but it just goes back to bootloop at the leeco logo. What could be wrong?
