[Q] DEAD N4? Not Really but failed to root and install recovery - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried to root my phone today by using the Nexus 4 toolkit. In the process of rooting the phone, the use connection is physically disconnect by myself well it was an accident. After that, I only got unlocked bootloader, but I am not be able to get the recovery and the SU in the phone. When I try to repeat the steps, it is stucking at " cannot connect device" or sometimes "failed ... unknown error" or even "protocol error"(if I remember correctly. It seems that the connection is gone between the phone and the desktop under the fastboot mode. But under the normal Android OS, I am able to connect my phone to desktop to do the data transfer things.
I am seeking for help here. I hope I explain my problem properly that you guys can understand. Here is error I got sometime when I connect my phone to PC.
The button is OK in the pic.

Accidently hit the thanks button
The phone`s bootloader is allready unlocked.
- Is the phone recognized in adb and fastboot mode? If not install the 0.72 usb naked drivers.
- Flash CWM recovery in fastboot mode from here http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager, choose touche or non touch.
- flash superSU 1.20 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 in CWM recovery.

Install the android sdk platform-tools and once installed:
- open cmd terminal and type: adb reboot bootloader
- type: fastboot devices and you should see a serial number if the usb drivers are nstalled correctly
- then type: fastboot flash recovery recovery-(name of the recovery).img
Read some threads to get familiar with your phone and to learn how to flash, root, use adb and it`s commands etc etc.

Yes it works, but it will not flash the SU zip. You need a custom recovery for that.

X800 Fastboot brick

Hi guys I tried to root my LeTV 1 Pro but it didn't worked.
My phone keeps rebooting in fastboot ( I see the penguin 10-15sec and it reboot again and again) or it stays alight with the penguin.
Computer doesn't recognize it.
Thanks.
Try and plug it to your computer then keep power and wol down pressed for like 15 sec: now fastboot should stick and device shouldn't reboot, so you can flash a recovery (TWRP?) and start over with a new ROM.
Thank you for your reply,
It still doesn't work, penguin stays on screen but it's not recognized by computer ( before the brick it was)
I'm not very experienced in rooting btw.
Edit : The recovery.bat in the file X1_X800_TWRP_Recovery2.8.7.0 says "Complete! The device is ready to reboot into Recovery." which I do but it keeps reboot with the pinguin on.
I recieved my phone today and it just wont stay in fastboot mode. I can do anything I want but it just keeps rebooting before I can flash anything. Any suggestions on how I should keep the Phone in Fastboot mode?
You need to install drivers. After that it will not reboot anymore. That worked for me atleast.
What kind of drivers do I need? Please link them to me I have tried a lot of drivers. The thing is that the phone also does not stay in Fastboot mode when not plugged into the PC.

I have downloaded drivers (I think) from https://twrp.me/devices/letvle1pro.html where I also get twrp 3.0.2.0
Btw if you are using Windows you can open Device Manager and there you will see your device and what drivers it has installed (you can always use update drivers function, maybe that will help too).
Here is a little guide how I managed to get twrp:
Just download it (drivers and intall them) (and download twrp also). Place twrp file to the folder where you have your adb installed.
In phone settings go to developer menu (first you need to unlock it) and you need to switch on usb debugging.
Connect phone to the pc via usb.
Open command prompt in your adb folder and type Adb devices (if you have drivers installed corectly you will se your devices connected under some code).
Then just write Adb reboot booloader and phone will restart to the recovery.
Type into the comand prompt: fastboot flash recovery name***.img (where the name is the file name of twrp you have downloaded- just a tip: rename it so it is easier to remember for example to twrp. Then the command will look like: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img)
If succesful, write fastboot reboot and that is all.
Btw for me it did not work first time. I had to load twrp for second time and when I wrote fastboot reboot then I immediately pressed volume up so It went directly to twrp recovery.
Hope it helps. Cheers

Now if I turn it on it only vibrates once. no backlight or any picture. If I press and hold vol- and power buttons together LCD backlight turns on but no display. then it goes off and then again turns on. PC does not detect it.

You need to have adb and fastboot drivers for your phone to correctly get detected.
Here's the LINK FOR QFIL TUTORIAL. You'll need another set of drivers called as the QCOM drivers which are mentioned in the tutorial from the above link.
Hope this helps.
I already have installed the drivers. Still not detected. Even the device manager does not show a device is connected

You should try changing the usb cable you are using. Or maybe that guy in the local repair shop didn't put the sub PCB board back correctly.

Lenovo A6000 doesn't come with a locked bootloader B-l
If you can boot into fastboot then you should flash twrp from it depending on the current android version of the device. If it had been on kitkat flash this TWRP v2.8.6.0 or if it has been updated to lollipop then flash the latest TWRP v3.1.0.
For this you need to first have the fastboot drivers installed and also the minimal adb and fastboot tool. Then place the required TWRP in that folder, better rename the file to 'recovery.img' and then in the CMD window which you open by Shift + Right Click first type
Code:
fastboot devices
To check whether your device is detected by the tool and haa got drivers installed correctly.
Later, if successful​, type in
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then you'll have TWRP recovery installed.
Then flash any ROM on the device using it.

Yeah bro I'm 100% positive. I think unknown command is displayed when you flash the wrong version of recovery.
You can also​ try
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Sometimes only this works which temporarily boots into the custom recovery.

You've tried booting into Download mode? It requires you to press the VOL UP + POWER KEY, then you need to select the Download mode in it to perform flashing through QPST.
Also, you never mentioned what android version was the device on, earlier.

[Help] I bricked my Axon. Need help.

So i've gone through every thread here without success. I have a unlocked bootloader but no OS nor custom recovery and i cant get into fastboot mode to install twrp. When i use ADB it wont find my device unless i go into Stock recovery -> update through ADB and even then it only recognized my device as sideload. What can i do? When i tried to use the MiFlash tool i cant seem to get the correct qualcomm drivers installed. what can i do?
Edit: I solved my issue by downloader the stock B08 system on my S5 and then i placed it in the external sd. Then i put the SD back into the Axon and installed the system. After i had installed the system and booted into the OS i could enter adb with my device being recognized and after that i flashed twrp by using ADB.
I have a new problem though and that is that i can't install the 3.1.0.0. twrp. it only boots into black screen when i enter recovery. I can use the 3.0.4.0. version though.
You can't enter fastboot mode on your phone. Correct?
I also assume that you installed a ROM from recovery and that's what caused the brick, right?
What happens when you try to enter recovery?

Go into My Computer, manage, devices and try to uninstall all drivers that are possibly related to your device.
Unplug your phone and let the drivers reinstall by itself.
Go into ADB and see if ADB Devices works.
If possible go into ADB reboot edl and try to reflash custom recovery : "axon7tool -w recovery"
When recounting unplug your phone and see if you can reboot, shutdown and enter into TWRP.
ps : i hope you have a backup ?

Yup, i tried installing the B29 stock system on my G model and so i suppose i had the wrong bootstack becasue this is where my problems started.

It still wont recognize my device. Which driver am i supposed to have in the Device manager? Do you think i can use my old S5 to transfer a Stock system to the sd card and then update my phone manually through the stock recovery and then when i have an OS installed maybe i can connect to ADB. I read somewhere that ADB commands only works in recovery and in the OS.
I have a twrp backup of my system on my SD card so no worries there.

You should see your phone as QUSB_BULK. Installed the ZADIG drivers ? That may cure the problem.
After that, imo, it is important you can reboot edl and flash TWRP recovery again AND when it recounts, you pull usb.
Normally you will have replaced recovery , reboot ok and you can enter TWRP and fastboot also.
ps : sometimes it is also advisable to go to ADB RECOVERY directly and do the processes.
ps2 : when TWRP backup, you can always put it on SD via other phone and in TWRP restore. Normaly you're good to go then...

Installing the driver and using it for the phone (device manager -> change driver manually (or something of the sort)) worked for me, but it could differ. Let me know. You don't have to uninstall other drivers just use that specific one for your phone by switching the driver manually via device manager.

*SOLVED* Embarrassed to ask for help - but please help!

Hi guys,
Unable to boot after c*cking up a manual upgrade from B10 to B11 on my A2017G and would love your input. I feel like if I can just install TWRP again it should be an easy fix. Here's some specifics:
1. my phone is unlocked, rooted and running stock firmware.
2. I was trying to install stock recovery to install the B11 update. I did so but also tried to install another zip (B10 bootloader?) which I seem to have flashed wrong. Now just get the screen as shown on attachment and cannot boot.
3. Stock recovery seems to have been flashed and I can boot to this. From here I can boot to bootloader but can't seem to do anything from there.
4. I try update via ADB with the sideload command, but get the message "E:footer is wrong. E: Signature verification failed. Installation aborted".
5. I try to Update from SD as have the firmware zip file and TWRP on the root of my external SD card, but get the message "Couldn't Mound /sdcard, aborted."
6. The only time my phone shows as a connected device in ADB is when I try to sideload files. No other ADB code seems to work, only get the message "error: closed" on the terminal.
Assuming I've got all the firmware files (and full backups on my external SD) I feel like if I can just install TWRP again it should be an easy fix. So, any ideas on how I install TWRP given situation above?
Best,
Neil

Try vol+ + vol- + power
it seems that the only time my device will show as connected in ADB is when I navigate through Recovery and select the "Apply Update from ADB" option. But even then, whilst it shows as connected, it only seems to allow the "sideload" command. Please see screenshot of Terminal. So at no other time will it show as a connected device.
Similarly, to have it show up in Device Manager, it'll only show when I switch the phone off, hold down Vol+ & Vol- and attached the power cable.
You are still on MM. So you are able to boot into bootloader.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
Now it should show your device as fastboot
If so you can now flash recovery with “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img“

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately as mentioned the only time my device shows as connected in Terminal is when I select "Update via ADB" whilst in recovery. Otherwise the device never shows as connected in adb.
So unfortunately fastboot doesn't seem to be an option for me.
Perhaps my drivers are out of whack but assuming what I've done to my phone hasn't changed that, it must be something PC - side.

But what if it shows your device as sideload? Can't you there reboot into fastboot?
No, it doesn't accept the command. Only one accepts is sideload. You can see from my screenshot a few posts back that the device is connected but shows different to how it normally would.
Breakthrough!
I seemed to follow the steps I've tried 100 times today and I now have TWRP installed again!
Thanks again to those who helped

The system has been destroyed please help

So I flashed the stock pie rom from this forum, came from pixel experience 9. After I flashed the ROM I also flashed the twrp installer and when I rebooted it says the system has been destroyed and press the power button to shut down. I can boot the phone in fastboot but it doesn't recognise it even though the drivers are installed and it worked perfectly before. The miflash program also doesn't recognise anything after I press refresh.
Is there anything I can do?

Same error with me today. Tried to restart 5 times. Its unbelievable but the fix was very easy. Just run "fastboot continue" and wait for 2 minutes for a working reboot!
Thanks for the Solution

Thanks for the solution. Worked for me as well for similar problem. A simplified step by step if anyone still couldn't get it to work.
Power off your phone as asked by the Error Message
Press Volume Down + Power button simultaneously to boot into fastboot.
Load Command Prompt in the ADB/Fastboot folder in your PC (ADB and other drivers need to be installed)
Type "fastboot continue" and press enter
And you are done. If your phone is not recognized by the PC (after you put it to fastboot mode) make sure you have proper Drivers installed for your devices. You can use MiFlashTools to install required drivers automatically.

Thanks for this. This happened to me two weeks ago, had to completely flash stock rom and begin from zero. Hopefully others will see this and avoid starting fresh.
