tried turning s-off, phone keeps rebooting :(

All commands typed into terminal emulator were double checked and were typed correctly, i do have root and S OFF but it keeps rebooting!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835777&page=1
Was using this thread to root my phone. Check did that succesfully
tried the S-off, check, then proceeded to "power off,power on" phone...and now it just constantly reboots!!!!.... i can however access Bootloader and i see that my S IS OFF....but the phone is stuck in a rebooting loop :S how do i fix that? need some help...not trying anything right now as fear to brick a 2nd phone.
edit** i was going to do a factory reset...but what else can i do? someone help me out

When i boot into bootloader, it shows a quick couple lines of text saying "no image" and some other lines....thne disappears in 1-3 seconds and send me to the normal bootloader screen where it shows, Hboot, fastboot, recovery, factory reset, simlock, system info, image crc.
edit* something about no pc10 or pcdiag img or wrong image.
for those wondering it is S OFF

[Help] My phone can log in to bootloader but can't start.

I think I've got boot loop situation, so I rebooted in to bootloader mode and tried to flash it's stock rom following efrant's guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/how-to-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2010312 but it failed.

Has anyone faced the same problem and know how to fix it? I'm afraid the main board has crashed but I can still boot in to bootloader so I really confused.

Recovery to a stock ROM may cause your phone lock again, please ensure you phone is in unlock status first (you may see an unlocked padlock at the bottom of the screen after power on), and try flash the recovery again.

Then try to flash the factory image, this will truly reset your phone:

Try to unlock it again,Install CWM and flash the original ROM into the machine.

Having and unlocked bootloader and not being able to flash the stock factory images is a bad sign. Usually it means a corrupted emmc chip. Can you send it to RMA?

Secure boot error after reverting to KitKat via TWRP backup

Hey everybody! Please, I need urgent help!
So, yesterday, I upgraded my G2 D802 from rooted stock KitKat to the official European Lollipop, v30b. Before that, I made a TWRP backup of everything.
So, I rooted Lollipop, installed TWRP, and was about to install the new Xposed for Lollipop. Then, **** started freaking out and "LGSmartCover" kept crashing continuously, making it virtually impossible to navigate the UI.
Soooooo, I decided to revert back to KitKat via the TWRP backup.
Everything SEEMED fine, but now I cannot boot. I get the LG logo, then this message appears:
ERROR : boot certification verify
[800]_______________________
[850]
[900] Secure booting Error!
[950] Cause : boot certification verify
[1010]

I do not seem to be able to enter download mode or recovery either.
My computer does recognise it as "qhsusb_bulk" when plugged in, though.
What do? I'll be eternally grateful if somebody can help me solve this.
UPDATE: I somehow managed to get into this "Hardware key control mode" by pressing and holding all three hardware buttons at once, while plugging the phone into the computer.
UPDATE2: Somehow, I managed to boot into Download mode, after doing the same thing over and over again! Trying to recover via LGMobileSupportTool now..

same error
How did you solve it ?

Hi,
I had a similar problem and I managed to repair the phone by using the TOT method with LG FlashTool v1.8 by reaching download mode.
Good luck!

If you can fully enter download mode(first screen and then the second screen),then try to flash a stock rom with LG Flashtool(KDZ method) or TOT method.
Since you were using TWRP,official LG Update tools will kill your phone if you try to flash the stock rom with them.

i have the same problem and i dont know how to reach download mode. when i connect my phome to the pc, it shows the same secure boot error. any help?

Supposing the drivers are installed in windows, you need to have the phone plugged in to comp. and then hold volume-up+power until you get the "download mode" on your phone's screen

It is still locked or you don't the false, false, false? After oem info it said failed and then try flashing twrp makes no sense
Reflash stock fastboot rom with miflash or use a deep flash cable. And then unlock it correctly
If nothing works you have to open your device and use testpoint method.

really nothing works.
miFlash gives me an error in red.
I already tried with the flash cable qualcomm but the phone when it vibrates it displays the MI logo and is off.
I tried recovery twrp.img but still the same error message

Method MiFlash:
Rom FASTBOOT for Redmi 4 prime: markw_global_images_V8.5.4.0.MBEMIED_20170925.0000.00_6.0_global

Fastboot method won't work as your bootloader is locked. Try with deep flash cable or test point method.
Trying to flash twrp also not gonna work.

I tried the deep flash cable:
click on the + and - button of the volume
plug in the phone and click on the button of the deep flash cable until the phone vibrates ... except that ... when it vibrates it displays the MI logo and ends ... but it is visible on the manager peripheral

Don't use "wipe_all_except_storage".
Use wipe_all only.

i've read alot and din't find anyone with the same problem as myself, if someone could point me to a direction i would apreciate, thx in advance

A little bit of a update
for what i can undestand, my bootloader now is locked and this is the problem, since i'm trying to unlock again so i can flash TWRP one more time.
when i try to put the active slot on "A" ("fastboot --set-active=x") the erro that i get is
"(bootloader) Command is not allowed
FAILED (remote failure)"
if anyone knows how to unlock my bootloader form that screen, i would apreciante any kind of help

You can't. Unless OEM unlock is ticked in the developer options setting already.

I've seen this on g7 power and one was to solve problem waas let phone die then charge and power up problem is you didn't flash copy partitions zip file and their is no active bootloader in slot b

i Was able to solve this problem flashing a blank flash for my device
thankfully the telegram group for this phone was able to save mine
thx anyway

Hi,
I have the same problem. But, as I see in the forum rules, Telegram links are forbidden so I cannot ask you for it.
Could you please explain how did you do it? Do I need a blank flash file?
Thanks!

Look your inbox

hey, i have the same problem, archived it the same way you did=)
can you explain the blank flash to me?
thanks
*Edit:
found it out for myself in the mentioned telegram group. solution is:
1. Download the blankflash.zip attached and unpack it.
2. Run the fastboot command
Code:
fastboot oem blankflash
3. Run the blankflash.bat File
4. Reboot
Important Note: This will only work if your bootloader was unlocked before the softbrick occured. Don't try when the bootloader has never been unlocked!
