[Q] LG Optimus L3 E405 Recovery Dead?

Hello,
This morning I tried to root my phone so that I can force everything to be moved to a sd card since the storage of the system is low not enough to install apps and to install A mod that is more updated then the current GingerBread OS.
I managed to soft brick the device the rom clearly said e405 obviously the developer has a few bugs anyway I manage to recover from my soft brick by A software 'KDZ' Only issue I have now is when I press volume up on boot I get A notice icon trying to say something (image of the icon is attached below) and when I use ROM Manager to reboot to recovery it will attempt to go there, Instead of going to recovery it goes to A loading page then this erases all my data/apps except SuperUser/Root.
Tried everything and it still does it?
When I use the LG Emergency Software it just goes to a page saying not responding??
Any help and ideas would be grateful so I can fix this issue and move on also im mostly A samsung user and im fairly new to lg.
See thee error message below
Once i get the idea of what the icon is actually trying to say I should be in the right direction.
Thanks,
Spudster

Perhaps you can go to ROM Manager, uninstall Recovery, then re-install it?
I don't really know. I'm sorta new to this stuff.

I saw that icon after flashing back to stock rom with KDZ and a hard reset worked for me. Pull the battery, make sure you not connected to USB or charger, then press and hold home key and down volume while you press power on. Release power when you see LG logo, hold the down and home for a while until you see android unpacking a box. It takes about a minute to see this, so you gotta wait for it. The phone reboots or shut downs, don't rememberwhich

Anyway should also mention that when I try to reboot into recovery with rom manager it reboots goes to the loading box thing then it wipes my data Like i said I tried that method in a few hours and get back to you here.

nope
didn't work ;.(

Man go to the screen u have posted the images above , then use KDZ to flash back Man!
This is "DIAG MODE" so select it in KDZ program
So select KDZ file ( download if u have tried urs so far)
No error .. when u click to start upgrade ur phone will apper in emergency mode. Then the KDZ will flash flawslessly

Still didnt work it flash though but still didnt fix the recovery..
These lg are actually useless a simple firmware flash should do the job.
LG staff are also rude to be honest rang up and because I tried to root and I was doing the right thing going back to stock they denied support and hang up without me giving A reply. Glad ive switched back to samsung s4 and Apple IPhone 5C.
Thanks for attempting to help :.)

[Q] My phone is dead on stock...(due to rooting/unlocked failure?) Please help!

Hello XDAers,
I am a real noob at rooting or android-related, and a true one voided of any knowledge regarding anything IT- related.
So dear veterans, please go easy on me.
Due to my prior success of rooting and flashing my Nexus 4 successfully a few months back with no issues, I decided to give it a try to flash a custom ROM for my dad's LG Optimus L7 - which seemed an easy task compared to configuring my Nexus 4 - since there was no need for inputting any command lines or any dealing with the abd (using the easy shortcut, that is).
So, I followed the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906133 ...
I first factory resettled the phone because it was bloated, then applied the "RunMe.bat" from the "What you desire!" folder. (Everything was already backed-up beforehand.) But the process didn't success until I've retried again and again by re-plugging the USB in because the application/PC couldn't detect the phone. In the same time, I was running KDZ_FW_UPD.exe in the background, so unexpectedly for me the phone shut itself and pushed itself to a vividly green emergency screen, then in a few seconds switched back to a screen of purple-white-blue glitches. I had to close KDZ_FW_UPD.exe without knowing what quite happened since it seemed to be the cause and restarted the process with RunMe.bat.
I didn't manage to "Restore" it first due to the fact that the phone stopped responding due to a lag asking for an encryption key. It was lagging so hard and I had to close the cmd around 5 tries while it was processing, but succeeded later on.
And then, to verify whether I've actually suceeded in rooting L7, I installed Root Checker from the Play Store. And again, for the first few tries the program froze on screen for a long period of time due to "system performance", but after rebooting and restarting the app a few times again, the ROOTING proves to be a success. Just to be sure, around this time I've reloaded KDZ_FW_UPD.exe and it suceeded.
So I went to install CWM and ES. CWM for recovery boot and ES for removing pre-installed system apps as the phone was lagging so badly. I've downloaded the CWM restoring(something like ~6.0.28?) first and tried fastbooting immediately right after, but instead of getting the fastboot menu I got a screen emptied in black with these words:
[5020] "Secure booting error"
[5020] "Cause: boot certification verify"
No hard keys could do anything on the presumed "fastboot", and so I had to hard boot again. I thought that it might be due to the lack of memory(checked on ES later on that it was 310~MB/2GB), and so I've used ES to uninstall a lot of system apps which I deemed uneccessary. So I've Googled a bit and it became apparent to me that that I've didn't unlock the device properly, so lurked around and found a file called L7CWM that is supposedly to resolve my problem, but I presume that it's the CWM recovery image that I've installed. So in the end, I didn't bother with it but kept it on tab just in case.
I repeated the same process with CWM again, but this time, the screen was joined with all kinds of flowery glitches. Restarted the device, and it went only downhill: now the Home launcher stayed all pitch black and nothing appeared. I waited a few minutes, but nothing there until the notification bar appeared. The home screen is apparently dead, and so are the menu keys. Switched to Nova Launcher(installed it just in case Home Launcher fails), and still dead. I couldn't access using any of the menu keys and had unusable launchers.
Hopefully I could still access to the settings from my status bar, but when I did, it started crashing immediately.
I've repeated the attempt a few times after restarting the device a few times, but nothing helped. It only got worse that the when the launcher did SEEM to work. It only showed the wallpaper without showing any of the icons/apps. And crashes again.
I could still access to the App menu via the settings, but couldn't open any of them and when I tried to uninstall them, the screen frozes immediately right after I gain access to the page (white page though) and gain this message: "Unfortunately Package Uninstaller Stopped!"
Then I convinced myself that the only thing I could do at the time was to factory reset the phone and then everything would go alright since I've just had to restore the system apps.
But then the black screen of death came right along with it:
"Secure booting error"
It seems that I'm out of luck... ... But just to check if I'm still left with resorts, I've downloaded the L7CWM file online...
... ...but it still didn't help.
So now I'm being left with no other choices other than asking for help. I never really understand what KDZ_FW_UPD.exe does since I had the LG Driver already before installing it, which I presume was for updating the phone to a newer or older version. And too complex tech articles are kind of alien for me.
EDIT(1 hour later): Okay, now I figured out the reason why L7CWM didn't work was because I didn't extract it to the right folder (after double checked via notepad that I was supposed to directly put it into the C:\ drive). Now it worked(?), but then it didn't.
After launching Flash_Bootloader.bat:
This message now appeared on the L7:
"Sorry!"
"SuperSU is not responding.
Would you like to close it?"
"Wait - Report - Close"
and a few minutes later
"Sorry!"
"Unfortunately, SuperSU has stopped."
"Report - OK"
Now I think the bugs till now happened was due to the fact that I've deleted a file that was required for me to launch apps... Now I just need the right fix.
After 5 minutes of screen inactivity the phone restarted by itself, kind of creepy... ...
Flash_Recovery.bat did nothing.
Reboot2Recovery.bat made it reboot but still struck on the same menu.
Nothing seems to be effective via the phone anymore, seems like I have to rely on abd but then again I don't know how... ... My dad is also f*cking pissed off ^ ^;...
__________________________________
I think that I explained the logs pretty precisely in case I missed something... I'll be very very very very very very thankful if someone could tell me what has caused my phone to fail though.
For references, here are the phone's specifications:
Model Number: LG-P705g
Android version: 4.0.3 (Stock)
Rooted:Yes (root checker)
Baseband version: MSM7227A-1-AA
Kernel version: 3.0.8-perf
Build number: IML74K
Software version: V10e-AUG-10-2012
If I don't get the phone fixed to being usable soon I think that I will get butchered real hard... ... Preferably needs a step-by-step guide made for toddlers... ...

remove the battery for 10 seconds,put it back pres VOL+ and VOL - same time and than press the power button.when you feel a vibration press for many times the button wich is down in right,try for many times and maybe it will working :}

[Q] NFC error puzzle. USB debug not an option

Two days ago my wifes 1st generation Nexus 7 refurb started giving the "Unfortunately, NFC service has stopped" error. You click OK and the error instantly pops up again. There is a moment to click on something if you're fast and I've been able to click on settings but when settings opens it's nothing but a black screen with no options. This means that I can not enable usb debugging. I have tried quite a few different processes, ADB sideload, going through the bootloader, but they all seem to require usb debugging and the tablet is never recognized. The tablet is stock but I have no way of knowing what version of android it is currently running with the blank settings window (unless you can give me a tip on that). Have done two wipe/factory restores on it and the error comes up right at the first boot screen. I am willing to pursue any option to get this tablet in working order. Rooting, flashing, whatever but I am a novice in the world of android rooting. It was purchased off groupon (won't make that mistake again) and the 14 days are past so If I have to send it in, it's cash money out of our pockets.
Do I have any options? Thank you for your time!

Most frustrating of all is that everything else about the tablet seems to be functioning normally. I can install apps from google play. I can't really run many of them though.

If the tablet has never been rooted, and the factory reset procedure seemed to complete successfully, then your symptoms suggest that something is wrong with the /system filesystem - which, for stock devices is never modified (always mounted read-only).
So that in turn suggests *perhaps* flaky hardware - probably the flash memory chip - that has gone awry and is the root cause of the problem.
It is conceivable that you could go through the process of unlocking the bootloader and re-flash a Google-provided "factory image", and that the problem will go away. But if the root cause is really a flaky flash memory chip, it will very likely return with a vengeance, and your efforts will be for naught.
There is something missing in your narrative, however - if the appearance of the "NFC Service has stopped" dialog on-screen prevents you from interacting with your (intended) foreground apps, how were you able to perform a factory reset and then follow that up with a tablet configuration? (e.g. to get Google credentials on the tablet so you could push apps to it by using a PC Web browser from the Google Play market).
If you are unfamiliar with rooting but still want to proceed with reloading the factory images, you will have to follow the Stock Recovery tutorial threads. Many users - especially those with Windows machines - seem to get stuck at this step, although truth be told that has nothing to do with Android, and everything to do with Windows Driver Installation Hell.
Note - specific to your situation.. You do not need to enable USB debugging to re-flash factory stock images. You only need to communicate with the device (booted into bootloader mode) with the "fastboot" program. For this you only need working USB hardware - not "adb".
good luck
BTW, note that you can perform a factory reset in the stock recovery without launching it from the O/S. The sequence is:
1) Turn the tablet off (not screen off, but powered completely off)
2) Boot into bootloader mode by holding Power+Vol-Down together (hold them down until android lying on its' back shows up - about 4 seconds)
3) Using the vol-up/vol-down button, select "Recovery Mode" on screen and press the power button
At this point the screen will go black. Wait about 10-13 seconds. The screen will remain black even though the stock recovery is now running. To get the screen to show the (stock) recovery menu,
4) press and release the Power & Vol-Up keys simultaneously.
The stock recovery menu should show now up. If it doesn't, try again. (After 60 seconds if you have done nothing, the tablet will reboot to the "normal" OS).
5) Use the on-screen menu to perform a factory reset (follow the directions on-screen for key usage).

Thank you so much for your response! The unanswered question is that I managed to put in the network info and what not during setup by hitting OK on the error and tapping the letter in the moment before the error popped up again. Not a fun task!
I've been trying to flash and after installing the google usb drivers it's still doing the <waiting for device> for infinity. I think I will have to bite the bullet and send it in. You saying that it might be a flash chip is kind of comforting because I think I might have bashed my skull against this issue forever before giving up!

flashed the wifi fix for the TMObile us version (from the X Note rom page)and was able to get out of the loop.

Help! Can't flash ROMs from Flyme OS 5.1.1 system!

So there I was, using Cloudy 3.3 on my G2 international model (d802) when I thought to myself: Why wouldn't I change the ROM. I guess I got bored of it and while in the past year I tried almost EVERY ROM (at least every 5.1 lollipop ROM and these new marshmallow ROMs) I wanted something different this time. I remembered that Flyme OS system and wanted to give it a go. I found one here on xda site, I think it was Flyme 4.1 or 4.0 or something like that but I decided to go for a ,,newer" version of the system.
I found Flyme OS on this site: http://www.flyme.cn/firmwarelist-14.html
And as you can see the entire site is in Chinese but I managed somehow and downloaded it. I had TWRP 3.0 installed and I think I know the thing or two about flashing ROMs on this device. The whole installer is AROMA based and even though it was in Chinese I managed to flash the system. And that's when I knew I f****d up. After I installed it and it booted up, I figured that I'm not really into the whole Flyme interface and wanted to revert to stock. But I couldn't!
1. I no longer have download mode, when I stick USB cable and hold volume up it shows me an animation of ,,download mode'' but then in upper left corner appears a message saying ,,boot secure error'' or something like that and then it shows me a black screen.
2. I no longer have my TWRP recovery installed.
- I can't use 3rd party apps to restart my phone into recovery because this OS is NOT rooted! And I can't even root it because there's no method for it. I tried the default rooting method for MEIZU phones which include you logging in to your Flyme account and all of a sudden ,,root permissions'' option appears in your settings - DIDN'T HAPPEN. I also tried other different methods but to no avail. It just can't be rooted.​ - Even when I turn the phone off and try to do the hard reset thing with simultaneously holding power + volume down button - it won't show me the LG's default ,,factory reset'' screen which could potentially lead me into TWRP. It just boots normally!​
So, the conclusion:
I flashed an unknown Flyme OS system for LG G2 from a Chinese site and it works decently good but when it installed - it turned my G2 completely to a MEIZU phone. I have no clue on how to revert it and PLEASE I would appreciate any help given. Before giving your opinions in the comments, do read every sentence I wrote above.
Thanks in advanced.

Did you tried going to recovery mode by completely shutting off your phone and then pressing volume down + power button simultaneously. If goes into recovery mode as you said you have no twrp installed. What does it shows and also what happens when you connect your phone to pc in recovery mode?.
P.S i recovered from a similar issue like you on my sprint g2

I tried going to recovery with my phone being completely shut down, however, it simply turns the phone on. No button combination gets me into recovery anymore. As if it simply vanished from my phone (the recovery, of course). It doesn't show the default ,,Factory data reset" option when I hold volume down + power button whilst turning the phone on. No options whatsoever. So I didn't even get the chance to connect it to the PC while in recovery, since there's no recovery installed on my phone.

VNS L21 Nougat C432B336 working and not working stuff

Hello all, i am planing to describe all good and not working things about this Nougat version i found and also process i did to install it.
I would be grateful if someone can help me resolve not working things or maybe this will help developers fix them.
First, one month ago, i unlocked and rooted my phone because i wanted some additional features. TWRP was installed and worked like it should. I did not unroot phone.
Yesterday, i downloaded those 2 files needed for Nougat 336 update. I used DLOAD method.
Steps i did was:
1. Put BOTH files on SD car in dload folder.
2. Power off phone.
3. Enter TWRP via Power + Volume down button.
4. Flashed 1st (Update.zip) file and got some red line errors. (Because i read it is normal i went further).
5.Flashed 2nd file WITHOUT reboot. All was done in 1 or 2 mins, and no loading and installing screen was shown, just rebooted normally.
6. Huawei logo showed and phone start normally with nougat update (1. December security patch).
Good things i noticed while few hours of testing:
1. Better battery life
2. Twin apps working
3. App drawer working
4. System is a bit faster (apps load and work faster)
5. Less ram is used (900-1000 MB free when cleaned)
THING THAT DON'T WORK AND I NEED HELP TO GET THEM TO WORK:
1. Camera app show black screen, than shut down and restart itself. That happens all the time until i close it with square button and click on trash can. SO CAMERA NOT WORKING. I even tried some apps from app store. App works but screen is full black.
2. I have no Huawei stock apps like clock, alarm, stopwatch, calendar, calculator, file manager, not even stock sound for ringing nor message etc. They are MISSING FROM PHONE apparently.
3. Problem with sound manage. Those bars that regulate sound dont work very well. I put my Ringtone bar to MAX and i hear phone ringing and SMS sound but I dont hear app sound like Viber or Messenger sound.
4. "MOST IMPORTANT ONE": I thought maybe 2nd file did not install normally so i tried to enter TWRP again and flash it again, but I CANT ENTER TWRP!
I pressed Power+ Volume down like 10 times, I tried Power - Volume up too, even all 3 buttons, nothing happens. Just Huawei screen and phone boot up normally. When i did 3 buttons EMUI screen appeared and it said, installing updates, went to 5% and wrote: FAILED, Reboot phone.
So now i cant flash ANYTHING again. Can someone help me with this thing please. Maybe many other people will find this thread helpful.
Thank you.
