Bricked Vibrant, Assistance greatly appreciated

Hi all,
Sot of new to modding, think I screwed up and could use some help. Was doing this one click speed fix: forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7587405&postcount=417
It didn't appear to work the first time, as I received a message and exited the application, however the symbol was still in the notification bar. Re-ran it, and it seemed to have worked, mostly, as the phone was blazing fast. Went immediately to run quadrant and check the benchmark, but it force closed every time it hit the i/o section. tried to go to market, foreclose every time. Figured it may need a reboot, powered off, and that's was all she wrote.
I can get into the battery charging screen and have been able to get to recovery, but nothing else. I haven't used adb or ODIN at all yet, but any assistance is greatly appreciated.
The phone was already rooted, and i have titanium back up and nandroid backups, but don't really know how to get to them.

If you did a nandroid backup, just go in recovery screen and restore backup. If not, flash back to stock rom.

well maybe i dont know what im talking about then. I guess I thought i did a nandroid.
When i go into recovery i get four options: reboot system now, reinstall packages, clear all user data, clear cache data.
none of them work

Did you install clock work recovery via Rom manager?

well it has turned on now. removed sim and memory card and hit reinstall packages. ive got the standard twlauncher running but, it repeatedly gives me force close notifications that android.process.media has stopped and i cannot access the menu

yes, i did. i remember doing that precisely as shown in your tips and tricks thread

alright, so i got it into download mode, gonna reflash everything to stock and see where i went wrong as outlined here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475
Will update with results, but would be nice to figure out where i went wrong so as not to repeat the error.

If you can get into recovery just wipe and reflash eugenes vibrant4.zip.

Alright, back to stock. unrooted also? gonna mess some more and see if i can get my clockword recovery to restore everything.

okay, so my theory is that the lag fix i used installed an update.zip that overwrote the clockword mod one. Now im just trying to restore using titanium backup, but it is telling me that it doesnt have root access. i know im rooted, as i just did it and reinstalled rom manager and drocap. hmmmmm.....
Thats not all thats funny. i cant find the superuser app anywhere on here. also, i cannot install one from the market.
and im having issues with root explorer.

I would re-root and then follow the flash the ROM mentioned above. There is a thread in the DEV forum.

You need to root again to get the superuser on your phone. As for the one click lag fix, I used to original method and it went pretty well. No problems so far. I also flashed Vibrant4 by Eugene before doing the lag fix. Hope it helps

same thing happened to me. I'm stuck on the galaxy S boot screen. i can get into the samsung recovery screen but not the clockwork recovery. I backed up my nandroid and Rom but don't know how to get into the menu to restore. I only have the update.zip for the lag fix on the internal sd so can't restore that way. Any ideas? Much appreciated.

There may be other ways around it, but I restored fully to stock, then re-rooted. I'm back up and running no problem now. Had some issues with titanium backup but got around that and its batch restoring as i type.

Would you mind saying how you did that?
I tried wiping and flashing the stock via renaming it update.zip, and I'm still getting FC city. Mostly media, but, calendar, everything. I'm going to post a link to this in that thread, since many, it seems, were left hanging in a boot loop.

Just follow what I did through the thread.
I did this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475 to get back to complete stock, then i had to root it twice. Once did the one click, then the good root here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7150299&postcount=1
back up and running. had to research about titanium backup to get it up and running. I want to do the lag fix still, but im nervous from before.

Your nervous? I really would like to do this but i'm scared (cuss)less.
I've read what needs to be done and think that I've figured it out.
(pretty new to droid)... but, have also read the horror stories here
about bricking your phone...which nowadays can happen to any
phone you have....don't get me started on the apple pie!
But, really when it gets a simple as installing an .APK I'll be happy.

The galaxy s seems pretty hard to brick. I'd say just go for the lag fix. Worse thing that happens is you have to take like 15min to download and use odin to reflash to stock. The lag fix seems pretty safe as long as you stay rooted

Vibrant Recovery Mode HowTo
THIS GUIDE WORKED ON USA T-MOBILE SAMSUNG VIBRANT BUT MAY VERY WELL WORK ON ALL SAMSUNG GALAXYS PHONES
After reading many XDA-Developers Forum Posts to try and figure out how to get into the Recovery Mode / Download Mode without any success, I gave T-Mobile Support a call.
After the usual noop run-down, "did you take the battery out" questions, I simply asked them how to get the Samsung Vibrant into recovery mode.
Unline the many tutorials that claim to require the Up or Down button pressed, along with the Home button then the Power, the true process is as follows:
1. Press the Up and the Down button at the same time (yes both). I too thought that button was a Toggle which only did either Up or Down, but found that in fact it does do both.
2. At the same time, press the power button.
3. As soon as the Samsung / Vibrant logo comes up on the screen, release the power button.
4. Release the Up and Down buttons.
5. PRESTO

Brick

So I think i bricked my phone. i was rooted with motochopper then twerp recovery then loki then aokp. i tried to update and without the auto loki and it said it dont have a genuine att software. so i downloaded the orginial firmware that adam put up and i odin flashed it and its stuck on the att logo. any ideas?

As long as you are in a bootloop, you are not bricked. A brick would get no response, no charge or anything. If you odin back to stock, get into stock recovery and do a factory data reset. If you had a twrp nandroid back up saved to your ext sd card, you could re-root, re-install twrp, and restore back up.

CAN YOU GET INTO RECOVERY????? problem is you have something that is loaded conflicting. I bet that worthless keis.
Go back to the thread where the stock rom is posted, and READ! do exactly as the directions state..step by step. before you even odin, there are somethings that says to do BEFORE you start.
I have odin to stock several times with not even 1 issue.

glad to hear..next make a backup first thing...then do whatever.

Also if you can't get to recovery then load kies on your computer and try and use that to flash or recover your phone

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of bull $ hit or something like
that. ..

So..I managed to do the same thing that shiftkenny did originally, but I can't seem to get mine working at all.. it freezes at the AT&T logo and that's it. I can get into download mode, and have tried flashing the stock and updated firmwares, as well as the kernals (since that is what got me in this situation in the first place). I can't, however, get into recovery mode.. Is there anything I can do? shiftkenny, what exactly did you do to get it to work? How did you wipe cache partition? Any help on this would be great, thanks!

Accidentally tried to update a rooted G2..

Hey guys, I screwed up bad. Im trading my G2 for an M8 tomorow, So I reverted back to my 'stock' restore on TWRP. Not really thinking about it I tried to update to 4.4 directly from the update centre. Now im stuck in a boot loop going into TWRP and it wont let me into the firmware. Can I still follow the thread that tells you how to go back to stock? Im in panic mode right now so im sorry if this has been asked before. Im just writing this so I can maybe get responses while I try and fix it myself.
thanks,
Brandon
EDIT: this back to stock thread is very intimidating. If someone could tell me an easier way (if there is one of course) to get back to stock it'd be appreciated.

100% wiped as in you wiped the internal storage as well.
Try to adb sideload a rom to atleast get it to boot something? You'll still have to go back to stock tho..
And if someone sends you a stock rom, that won't help you I wouldn't think. You'd still have twrp if you were to flash that. I'm assuming you want it back to 100% stock, right?

No i dont mind having TWRP. I just want 4.4 'stock' D803 rom. As in all the features of 4.4. He knows it is rooted, thats no problem
EDIT: I booted into download mode and rebooted from there. It now goes back into the stock image I had flashed. 4.2.2 LG Skin. he wants 4.4 though is the main issue.
EDIT 2: http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/dn/downlo...803R20D_00.kdz can I just flash that into recovery?

Well, it's too bad the return to stock scares you. I'm not too sure how it works for your variant, but it was pretty straight forward to do on my D800. If you could return it to stock, then update, you could use towelroot to re-root (takes like 10 secs).
Aside from all that, i'm not too sure what else you could do really.

CSE will wipe all for clean flash . Thats the way to go. OI have used Cloudyfa stock for D801 T mobile but it did not have WiFi calling so flashed D80120A_00.kdz , over cloudyfa 2.2 stock .You will have to root it . use towelroot apk and let it rain, then autorec for the recover. Good Luck

[Q] Problem updating to lollipop 5.0

Hello,
As many of you know, lollipop has been released for verizon very recently. I just unrooted my phone fully by using tot method to go back to stock. When I try to install the second update for lollipop, when my phone reboots after installing, it is stuck at the lg logo screen. I have tried factory reset and have used tot method to go back to stock and retry installing lollipop 3 times now. Any help on why the update isn't working would be appreciated, thank you

So it is doing the update to the previous version before Lollipop? Then the Lollipop update itself fails? That is odd, which model is it?

Ive tried 4 times now. I have to keep using tot to go to 11a and update from there. I get the first part of 5.0 (28a) successfully, but the second part always ends up sitting at the lg logo screen. Last thing i know i could try is a factory reset before the second update.

When was the last time your phone was rooted, and were there any problems you had before you went back to stock? Because for me i tried to update and i was unrooted but still had twrp. My phone was stuck going into recovery mode and i had to input that command in the terminal so i could go into download mode.

I actually went ahead and started the second part without wiping. My dad updated his G2 to lollipop without any issues and he hasn't wiped the phone since it came out. I think it might be a heat issue so I let it sit in the freezer for a little before I started it the second part of the update. If this doesn't work I'm either gonna try and use the upgrade assistant or go to 27A and then root and flash the 39a firmware through twrp. If you try wiping in between updates let me know how it goes!

There are multiple (39a kdz with instructions how to attain root and a recovery, flashable stock 39a zip, and a debloated stock 39a ROM) ways to get on Lollipop but it will help you both to look in the Verizon section.

Sprint lg g pad f7.0 (lk430)

I accidentally ruined my LG G PAD F7.0 and
am stuck in a Google Play Services Error loop on my tablet
at the first time setup screen and it kicks me back to select the WiFi option i cant access the Android OS or home screen i tried both factory reset options
The Tablet was rooted but i believe the OS/Google Play services is damaged because of an app that wasn't supposed to be disabled that what im assuming....
What i wanna know is it possible someone can make a flash-able dump of their tablet from someone elses same model and if i can use it to restore this tablet back to working condition and if so how??
I also would like to know if any of the sites are the proper recovery files for this tablet:

Then you need the stock rom which you can get from the sources you found or you can even just google it. Everything is pretty self explanatory. Make sure you're tablet is in d/l mode. If you have any more questions just ask. Good luck!!!

XXX01, did this work for you? I'd like to be prepared if I come across a problem like this. Also, has anyone had any luck flashing *any* custom rom on a 430? I see Cyanogen has release for 400 and 410, and I know this is a recent release, so I'm conflicted by how new the device is compared to how similar it might be to those others.

I would benefit from this as well. I would like to revert my G Pad F7.0 back to full stock but I can't. When I do a factory restore, it is still missing web browser and other apps that I had removed.

Could you push those apps through ADB install? Do you have the apk files for those? If you want to PM me a list of those apps I can try to get you the APKs off mine and you can try that. Meanwhile, I'm working on pulling my rom for you guys.

Hey that would awesome. I am getting failed when trying to do factory restore. They recovery is not working on mine. This sucks that their is not firmwares available for this sprint tablet

Lglk430 i need firmware.
Did you ever get the firmware. I need it and cannot find it anywhere? Please help if you can. I have done the same thing you have in the same situation.

LG Gpad F 7.0 Sprint (LK430ZV3) 5.0.1
stuck in bootloop during root process. i am unable to find rom anywhere.
pls help

I still can not find a way to flash this thing back to stock either. I am unable to find the stock rom anywhere. Not sure what to do.

We are having an error that says fastboot init( ), under that is loading keystore failed status 5 and then usb init ept @ 0x8f20700 and underneath that it says udc_start( ). It will not boot past this screen.

Did you get your stock ROM yet. I can pull it off one of mine if you still need it., I got two of them from Sprint just to save the activation fees on 3 other phones. I need to root them because they are way to slow. The hardware is way too small. Anyways, as soon as I figure out how to root them I can do a nan droid off the one I have never used so I won't even have to factory reset first. If you give me the steps you did to root yours it will save me time. How did you brick yours?

I need to know what recovery you used then you can flash it instead of having to use your PC.

It's guides online on how to extract the firmware I'm not sure how to myself cause I need a way to get mine out of a bootloop

Extracting a nan droid is easy enough. It is what you should have done as soon as you installed a recovery. t's just a back up. I need to use the same recovery you installed so it works on yours. After I back it up I will send you a link. You put it on your card and then restore from your recovery. It is key to always back up your firmware before you modify anything. If I make a back with the device that I haven't used it will be stock for you. I've never rooted a LG so I'm still looking for the method. I can compress it to a TAR if you want to flash it odin (or whatever is used for LG) but it is easiest just to install it as a restore. You can still power your device on to the recovery can't you?

I didnt even get to the recovery part I rooted and try to reboot after installing supers u from King root and been looping ever since

Getting it out of the boot loop is usefully not all that difficult. Did you try wiping the Dalvik and the cache? That will probably do it. If not what you need is the boot or kernel. Find the stock or the custom kernel and install it then wipe dalvik and cache.

I think i need the boot.img or kernal and I can't find either anywhere I've looked and I've tried factory reset and nothing I have the stock recovery so j can't wipe dalvik

A factory reset will wipe the dalvik. I will see what I can find tomorrow. When I get mine rooted you can use the boot image from my back up if I can't find one elsewhere. It's best to install a custom recovery. If your wanting the option to return to stock a good app is flashily. You can back up the boot loader and the kernel before you install a recovery and then use it to flash it back when you want to. It will even back it up to drop box so it doesn't get lost.
What method did you use to root?

I used king root and I'm no rookie to the rooting Android thing I've been doin it for years I just can't find a recovery to flash or anything other then King root to root it and if i could get it to go past the splash screen I'd be able to fix it but I can't get it passed there unless I find those files
