Start calm.
All you need is a cool mind now.
Search for the USB JIGGS available on xda and see if someone from your area has it. You can then take help from that person. If not then just go to service center, tell them that it stuck like this while doing software update and act like you no nothing about rooting our flashing. That will do.

Yes, offcouse.
Just let them be unaware of you knowing about root/cwm etc. just act dumb. If they get to know your warranty is already void, they will charge you money for repairing it.
Follow what bruce says..
Tell them u got an update in kies nd this happened
** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**

The last 'n' only hope left is this:-
Install ur phone specific driver on pc.
1. Take out battery, sim & sd card.
2. Open odin.exe on pc.
3. After this, connect the phone via USB cable to PC(yes! without battery,sim & sd card)
4. Press the download mode combo keys.
5. While keep pressing all those keys, insert the battery now.
6. Now, odin should detect ur phone so that u may get it updated with stock firmware.
And if this also doesn't work, then bro u might have lost it at all

LG G4c half bricked. Can't connect with pc or start recovery mode. How to fix it?

Hey guys. I tried rooting my LG G4c but after rebootingen it seems that my phone is stuck in a loop, and i can't fix it.
What happens when i turn the phone on:
1. LG logo turn up
2. The following message appears:
[670] --------------------------------------
[670]
[670] Boot verification fail!!
[670] - cause : MISMATCH_SIG_LEN
[670]
[670] --------------------------------------
3. Phone reboots
Using the power button + volume down does NOT work anymore to start recovery mode (although starting the IMEI display still works).
I tried using LG UP to install the original firmware via USB but the device does not show up in the list (probably because the phone keeps rebooting itself). Some website also said to connect the phone with the pc, turn LG UP on, then put out the battery and put it back in to make it work, but that also didn't work.
Anyone know what i can try next? What method can i use to reinstall the firmware? And if it's not possible, does it cost much to repair and who should i ask?
Edit: It seems i can start "Factory data reset" but when this proces starts the phone restarts and continues the loop with the error message.
I also tried connecting the device with LG UP while the phone is stalled on the IMEI screen and the Factory data reset screen. This way the phone does note restart itself and it might appear in the device list of LG UP. But too bad it still didn't work.
I don't know if i'm reaching anyone who can help me, but even a answer from anyone saying that the problem is hard to deal with would already be very relieving I really can't find anything related to this problem on the internet and i'm noobish myself. I'm probably gonna visit a some phone shop down town in the next days because i really don't know what to do.

I had this problem too. I send it to LG and said the phone was unplugged during update process. They flashed it and I gave it to my mom. I have an S4 yet. Much better performance and rom support.
download mode

Can you get it into download mode?

Plz help my mother zenpad s 8.0 is bricked and i can't fix it

Hello everyone,
First of all, let me explain what had happened, my mom shut down her tablet before she went to bed and when she tried to turn it on the next day it showed a usb logo.
I cant access recovery mode, or any mode...
My computer doesnt read the drivers, well on windows 7 it doesnt read and windows 8 it says that it installed even though it didnt, its still unknown, anyways long story short I cant see the device in any program I tried.
The drivers name is moorefield.
I don't know what else to do, my mom is so sad and I really need to fix this, she loves her tablet. If someone can explain how to fix it, instead of giving me a link to a tutorial. because even when I followed other ones even on this website, the problem isnt exactly like mine.
The worst problem here is that I can't find it in the programs such as asus flash tool or xfstk downloader.
I really appreciate the help, thanks in advance!!!!
I have the same problem, hope someone can help us out....
Have you tried putting it fastboot/bootloader? Does data matter? Does the screen turn on at all? If you answer some of these I might be able to help

Got serious problem with my J530F need quick help

Hello guys, i've got really hard problem with my j5 which is probably totally bricked. But. there is but, i can access recovery mode and connect it to the ADB, but still, aint that easy. While trying to flash new ROM, im getting up to 40 % and its shows "e:signature verification failed" after that it gets to 92% and stops. Total xfer: 2.00x on phone it shows as "E:failed to find /misc partition".
I've been trying literally everything.
Weird thing, cannot open adb shell, "error:closed" been trying killing server, starting server etc.
Most weird thing is J5 CANNOT ACCESS THE "DOWNLOAD MODE" which is the biggest problem in my case.
apart from that, i've got no TWRP or CMW installd, only stock recovery mode, whatever option im trying to get into, always gets same info "E:Failed to find /misc partition".
what else... I've been trying to make SD card as bootable device with android on it, if you've got any ideas about that, im happy to hear.
been trying several rooms, stock, lineage, other customs.
Tried several versions of adb..
sometimes adb shows info "deamon not started" which after i've got communicate that deamon started succesfully and transfered to port 500 something.
Please guys, help me with that. I've wasted about 60 over hours now :crying: getting sick.

Did you tried to flash pit file with Odin?
And how did you wanted to install stock rom without download mode?!(is there any way?)
And the last what did you do to get this?

I was not the first person that touched the phone.
i dont know if they are enabled, no access to the android at all.
i've been trying to push custom rom/ twrp etc. through adb.
There are plenty of samsung tools that allows you to do it, but requires download mode... so thats the reason why I'm asking.
Look up usb jigs. You can make one easily enough with a couple resistors and a usb lead. Here is a guide on how to make one https://www.instructables.com/id/USB-JIG-to-give-life-to-your-Bricked-mobile/#step1
Or you can buy one on like a cheap site somewhere.
Once the jig gets plugged into the device it force boots the device into download mode and you should be able to continue from there

unable to flash lenovo a1000

Hello everyone, so here i am trying to flash a friend's a1000, but unfortunately, i'm unable to do so because when i try to enter the bootloader by holding the volume up key before plugging in the usb cable to start the process, it only connects to the computer for about 9 seconds, and then automatically disconnects, i get a coloured screen afterwards, and i would be forced to restart the device, i first suspected that it was the cable, but i was wrong, since i've already tried a bunch of cables, all with the same exact result, i also used 3 different computers, and i still got the same result, please respond if you have any idea.

you need drivers to flash it. i flashed mine in september 2021 and most drivers didnt work. i ended up getting drivers with the same name for a diffrent phone and the flash worked. so try doing that it might end up working. i dont how i did it but it was really hard

I appreciate that, i'll let you know if i find a compatible rom for the device, i think the drivers are called CDC drivers if i remember correctly, i don't have the files, but i'm almost sure it's CDC, i'll be grateful if you can send me a link to that video.

Do you guys still have the files?
I managed to get the proper drivers and the phone is seen by the computer and I manage to flash it , but the phone is completly dead after the flash .
The power button wont do anything, plugging it into the charger doesnt do anything, I can only reflash it by connecting it to the pc while holding the volume up & down buttons.
Checking on old forums, aparently there are two versions of the phone , single sim and dual sim.
Also the revision number seems to be important for some reason, so mines is dual sim , revision 61 .
I believe this was the firmware that was on it previously, although the phone remained stuck at the boot logo : a1000_usr_s29798_1511241708_sprd7731_ro , but i cant find it anywhere , so I flashed the one you guys had , but now the phone is a dead brick after the flashing ends . Nothing on the screen, no response from any of the buttons, just dead.

sorry, i deleted my lenovo a1000 files to focus on other phones. from what i have heard that issue is common with that phone. i know someone who flashed the firmware on their a1000 and got stuck in the same issue as you. i tried to help them unbrick it but it seems to be impossible. i think you need to do a board replacement if you want to use that phone again. also, i dont think that the phone revisions are that important cause i managed to get lenovo a1000m firmware on my lenovo a1000.
