[LG L7 p705g] Hard brick - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, my phone is a LG L7 p705g unlocked, since 2 weeks from now it was working really weird, having lag, performance issues and even random reboots, i didnt care that much because i was using it to call and check whatsapp, after 2 days my whatsapp stopped working and asked me to reinstall it and so i did. I went to the play store, downloaded the app again and it kept saying "Whatsapp has a problem and it needs to be installed again". I tried to download it via .apk and it didn't work either, via whatsapp.com directly through the .apk and then using a file explorer and it didn't work either.
After a while i started to get frustrated and tried to do a hard reset, but guess what, it didn't work, i went through settings->security-> factory data reset, but it didn't work, it was just rebooting and that was it. Therefore i tried via hardware vol- , power and then menu. But it wasnt working either, it was just rebooting as well. My phone had the original KDZ that came from the factory and did a factory reset once, and it worked great that time.
Then i tried to reinstall the software but i couldn't find one that was for my country (venezuela movistar) and i used another one (from here: lg-phone -firmware. com/index.php?id_mod=13 and used the one "39 TFR/TELEFONICA(ECUADOR) V10B LGP705G" because it was the same "v10b" that my phone said so and using KDZ i flashed that firmware, it worked great, it worked for around 15mins or so, but i couldnt install whatsapp, kept saying the same error as before, and then 5mins later, it didn't turn on any more, and it isn't working. Somebody told me that it's a hard brick and it's unfixable, is it true?
PS: I can connect the phone to the PC and it says "FOUND NEW HARDWARE" but it won't turn on, i've tried the same to connect it with emergency mode (vol + vol - and power and then plug) but it isnt working. And my home button is broken, it has like 6 months not working so.. i cant use it in case you need some buttons sequence to be done.
Any idea what could be going wrong and if it's possible to fix it?
Sorry about my really long post and my awful english,

Galaxy Tab is restarting forever (not flashed)

I didnt reflash galaxy tab, was probably installing some software from the market. Now the battery has died, i restarted it and it keeps restarting after the logo... help, i dont know any recovery options :S Kies has nothing
I'm having the same issue. It sounds like a fastboot -w is required to wipe out userdata and cache.
Unfortunately I can't seem to get my PC to recognize my tablet in fastboot mode. I might have to send my tablet back to Samsung to get reflashed.

That has happened to me when I was having battery issues. I was able to keep connecting and disconnecting the charger cable until I got my tab to work again.
yeah might be that as well, i noticed strange behavior for last weeks, suddenly it started draining battery very fast or shutting down in the middle of the battery. running very slow and freezing.
when connected to pc it always goes: connect/disconnect/connect/... (hearing windows sounds for that)
i fully charged that yesterday, will try to boot today.
HOWEVER i was able to get into recovery menu, wipe/delete cache, sdcard, factory reset, etc.
might be that firmware/rom/bootstrap has been fuked up when battery died suddenly?

Hi guys
I didn't install new apps, no updates, no battery weak problem, no connect/disconnect problem, had DiP7's 2.3.3 rom since 10th July, very stable & solid. Not a single problem.
But my SGT GSM suddenly reboot-loop. I was just reading emails, reviewing photos.
Solutions: -
Enter recovery mode, Wipe date/Factory reset without wiping dalvik/battery stats etc. It just works and could run Titanium Backup to restore if I needed.
But ............................. Alternatives??? (New Life???): -
Tried HC_RC1, was good, but not daily driver yet, finally jumped to BOCA's 2.3.7, still playing around.
You may need to open up your tab and do the battery disconnect procedure. I finally had enough with my tab and opened it up. So far I am happy again.
i have some issue to
anyone can resolve it?
always reboot , and if i want to open keyboard, it restarting again
Thanks for the suggestion but it did not work for me...I experienced same problem you mentioned below except I had gone on vacation and my tab battery died and when I was able to recharge it, it just recycles through the Samsung logo!
Tried all the suggestions on this site and no luck so far...I'm guessing it might be time to take it in to Tmobile and see what they have to say, probably not much!
I'm not ever going to get a Samsung tablet again...Asus from here on out!!!

if its gsm go to overcome restocking method
Just go into recovery mode by holding volume down+power button.
Wipe everything then do a hard reset in recover screen.
If not do this.
Go here and download gbsafe_v5. Zip. It has everything you need including drivers and odin files
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317384
Also download overcome-kernel_4. 0.tar file as well.
Once you downloaded these two files plug in your tab to usb and wait for that phone and pc screen or download mode screen.
Go here and follow steps up to 10.

Your phone is now stock'ish GB with OC'ed kernel including custom clockwork recovery. This version also comes with phone capabilities unlocked so you can use it like a real phone. All you have to do is load tmobile. Modem file. If not then use as wifi only.

It's been few days since ur post. But I'll give it a shot for trying to suggest.
Try holding power button for 8 seconds to properly power off. Then charge it for a good hour before starting the unit.
Else just keep charging it. Standard times are 4 hours to get zero to 100%.
Once my power used till zero and no response what so ever even after charge 5 mins. Finally let it charge 1 good hour & it came back to life.
Good luck.

LG G2 Might be bricked, not sure.

Hello, cutting to the chase
Model: LG G2 D802
Story time: I tried to install ressurection remix rom through the sideload, after fully wiping my phone ( Wiped system, data, yada yada ) it showed some kind of an error about SU not installing properly, I thought well if I'll reboot TWRP will automaticly install SU for me, so when I tried to reboot it showed that No OS is installed, I thought it's a simple bug so I'll reboot to recovery again to check and bam. Nothing works.
+ Can't boot into recovery ( Tried volume down + power button ) LG Logo shows up and goes blank again ( Note that the screen doesn't turn off, just stays black, after holding it for a couple of seconds I can see screen going off completely but can't turn it on)
+ Can't turn it on normally.
+ Can't boot into download mode.
+After plugging it into an USB it mounts a D lettered drive with 63MB stuff in a folder called image with *.mdt files, modem files( I can screen it if it's important )
I'm clueless, never happened to me even though I flashed a lot of roms, I think I bricked it. Help?
UPDATE: I managed to quickly release Volume Down And Power buttons when LG appeared for half a second and hold it again, succesfully booted into TWRP. I haven't bricked it I think. Will tell how it goes <3
Hey man, how'd it go?
I'm in exactly the same situation as yours, can boot into twrp but nothing else works, i fear of the qhsusb_bulk brick but these people don't even seem to have recovery.
Any suggestions? Go back to stock? How?

How did it go!? I'm in a similar situation (but can boot into download-mode). Would love to get back to twrp, since I want to give it a try to flash another cm (stable). Thanks for sharing your experience...
If its picking up bulk mode normally its hard bricked there is a guide for restore nearly all g2s from hard brick having done it myself included 1st time took me a week to get back up but. Now i prob take about 45 min just cause i aint had one in a while

Hey there, can you specify what you did exactly or where to find!? Do you mean something like this? (can't post outside links, in XDA-forum, title is "LG G2 is UNBRICKABLE NOW! [FIX REAL HARD BRICK]") Thanks for help...
Yes thats it. Lol i still got the files on my pc for my g2 i keep the whe setup cause im on the g3 now i just check in the g2 forums cause i had mine for 2 years and modded the crap outa it but yea i keep all the files on hand so if anything ever happens i can fix it almost on the fly now
Well so what happened to me that I managed to get inside the TWRP. When it lighed it up for a second I quickly released and held again that got me inside magically. So then I just transfered new rom and tried to install again. Sadly I didin't see that the ROM Im trying to install requires bump TWRP and I bricked my phone again. Though I entered download mode and flashed the stock rom through LG G2 flasher.
heres a video i made, how to go into recovery. for those that cant get in to twrp.

Whitescreen

Hello,
i got an problem with my Huawei p8 lite.
I got root installed, my device worked perfect for a long time, but yesterday i came across a problem. a couple of apps stopped working. (they started and closed a couple seconds later.)
i turned my phone on and off a couple of times but the problem stayed. I put my phone back to factory settings.
My phone turned on after that and i got the 'setup' screen. after all the settings and agreements, i got a screen with 'restore with and older android device' when i want to skip that, i got an white screen.
Its stuck on there, i can turn off my phone with holding the power button and get the menu with 'boot again' and 'shut off' Also i can use my camera, calculator, flashlight and the recorder.
i tried installing the firmware again (vol+ and vol- and power) but when i do that, i got an message saying 'installation failed'.
Does someone have an solution?
Im sorry for my bad english.
Thank you.

Same problem, fixed
Hey, I had the same problem; After a factory reset the phone got stuck on emui activation with a blank screen. I factory restarted again and skipped the wifi connection and during the whole process of activation kept the SIM card off the phone. After that, Gapps acted weird but I noticed that it was because the Google Play Services app was missing. Installed this one http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-8-4-89-release/google-play-services-8-4-89-2428711-240-android-apk-download/ and all started to work fine again, with Gapps at least. I know your issues was some time ago, but I hope this could be useful for you or any other who face the same problem. Have a good one.

Need Help with S7 Edge (SM-935FD)

Hi! It's my first time making a thread here so guidance is greatly appreciated. Here's how everything started:
I was just casually using my phone (at the time I was using the built-in browser of google assistant, just looking at some news) then suddenly my phone crashed (I've experienced this before every time I was using the google assistant built-in browser, a simple browser can crash this phone?). It just restarted like it normally would, then, after using the phone for a few minutes, it froze again! I waited for it to reboot but now it just powered off and won't turn on (it won't show any sign of life, no logo, not even an icon when I tried to charge). D:
I figured to have it checked by a local technician and when he tried to plug a charger in, a display showed it charged (found it weird but happy at that time). I figured it was the charger so I bought a new one.
So I got home to charge it fully and when I turned it on, it worked normally. However, when I tried to turn my wifi on, notifications popped up and suddenly it froze again! After that, it turned off and when I tried to turn it back on, I got this dreaded red texts on a black screen:
Bootloader exception ( RST_STAT = 0x10000)
Exception: do_handler_sync: DABT_EL1(esr: 0x9600010)
RDX, do not reboot*** ext4_wait_block_bitmap:494: Cannot read block bitpc : 0x8f0261d0 lr : 0x8f02618c sp : 0x8f117fd0
This showed and the phone won't even let me turn it off, so I just waited for the battery to die out. When it did, I tried to charge it again and planned to do a factory reset thinking maybe an app was causing this. I managed to go to the no command icon and manual mode but no factory reset menu showed up (where you navigate using the volume up and down). So I tried to restart but now it died out completely- no button combination would work, it won't charge, no display can be seen. Is it hard bricked?
I tried to wait a whole day thinking I would be able to charge it again, but it has already been three days and I am not able to perform anything.
There it is, I tried to be as detailed as possible. Additional info: I never tried rooting it or flash roms with it, I haven't done anything with the software (or hardware since I am careful) but install apps (officially from the playstore). From how I see it, it's a firmware problem and I was hoping someone here can help me bring my phone back to life. Is this my fault? If I have this repaired, am I the one who should pay for this?
I mainly want to know what the error message means and if there is a way for me to access the phone. (I figured if I have the technician fix this, all they need is a computer with a software that could fix this since it's a problem with the firmware. If that's everything they would do then I could do that too, with your help of course.)
Thanks to all in advance!
Hi. This sounds pretty strange. Technically...it is hard bricked but you can bring it to life. I can tell you what I would do, when I run into such a problem.
ATTENTION: YOU WILL LOOSE ALL OF YOUR DATA EXPECT EXTERNAL SD CARD
First download the newest firmware for your S7 Edge (G-935FD) on SamMobile and unpacking the .zip.
Download Odin in the newest version, open it and put the downloaded files in the right order in Odin (BL, AP, CP and CSC - the files from the firmware from SamMobile has labeling with BL, AP etc.)
Now the tricky part because your phone won't charge and doesn't go on. You have to go in the download mode with your phone (press and hold volume down - home button - power button) than an window appears and press volume up
Connect your phone with your PC (in Odin you can see, that your device is connected) and press start. It will take some time transferring the ROM and your phone will reboot automatically and after some minutes of blinking Samsung logo...the phone should start normally into the SIM card pattern screen.
Now you have a fresh stock ROM installed and everything should work fine again.
But your phone won't get on or will charge...maybe when you connect it to your PC it will charge. Otherwise I see no option to solve your problem. Your phone must charge again that you can go into the download mode and bring your S7 Edge back to life with a clean stock firmware and an working system.

Nokia 6 stuck in recovery mode

just going to state this now, this is my first time posting on this site im not even sure i have posted it in the right area however as the title states i have a Nokia 6 i think it is ta-1033 but yeah it is stuck in recovery mode after doing something i didnt realise would cause such a big issue. So i had an app called "Kingo SuperUser" and i have had it on a couple of other devices before and nothing happened but i installed it on my Nokia 6 and everything was fine until i got a notification to update my phone and after a few days i decided to because it kept bugging me. i believe the update was to do with Oreo 8.1 or just a security update but anyway i started to download the update and it stopped about halfway and i got a message saying "no command" so i read a few posts on what to do for example i know how to get onto the menu thing (power button + volume up) and i also read that i may need to put a update on an sd card and update it via that however the update stops about a third of the way through and reboots. im assuming it failed because it always boots back into recovery but i have tried two updates and they just change something to do with 00W_5_580 or something. i have tried wiping the cache and factory resetting but nothing works i tried connecting my phone to my pc but nothing ever shows even in download mode. im not sure if anyone knows how to fix this if there even is one but if there is a fix could someone please help.
