i have new problem. this time,i try to change clockwork mode. unsuccessfully. things go like this ...try to flash some but no luck. than i try fastboot commander and problem is there appeared.whenever I try to get in rocovery,transferred me to fastboot. cant geat clockworkmode. rom manager shows that i use clockworkmode 3.0.0.6 but i just cant get to it ... some advice what to do?
The recovery from ROM manager is a temporary one, just stored on your sdcard. But you cannoy access it without rom manager.
I think you have corrupt or missing recovery. You can try to flash a new one with fastboot:
1. Go to the developpers subforum, there is a sticky that gives you the possible recovery's for our wildfire. Pick one and download it. If it is a zip file, extract is so that you have the .img
2. Put that .img in the same folder on your computer where adb.exe and fastboot.exe are. Rename that .img to 'recovery.img' (without ' ofcourse)
3. Reboot your phone in bootloader. Change to fastboot and connect it with your pc
4. Open the command prompt on your computer and browse to the location of fastboot.exe
5. Type "fastboot devices". Your device should be listed now
6. Type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and hit enter. You should now see the process continuing.
7. When done, type "fastboot reboot recovery". Your phone should reboot know, and you should be in recovery!
Good luck,
Erwin.

Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Had a problem with audio playback (volume always high no matter what). Decide to flash. PAC for my Sprint LS980. I see this:
Seems to be a lot of confusion so I'll clear things up..
ZV7->ZV8->ZVA is how the ota history goes, with ZVB on the way.
If you're on stock ZVA, your aboot (bootloader) may not be downgraded, in that case, use FreeGee from Play Store to install a recovery, it will automatically downgrade your aboot.
if you have the ZVA Radio, just flash furnace or dr87's kernel after you flash an AOSP ROM, all done.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorce: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2669074
Seeing the last sentance, I think that if I flash ZVA Radio, SlimKat ROM (the one that causes me problems) and then dr87's kernel I could try a ZVA experience. I flashed SlimKat again becuase I was going to change anyway, I wanted to try it with ZVA.
Tell myself why not, I do it.
Fails but I didnt pay much attention. I reboot.
Stuck in fastboot mode and cant escape. Recovery is a no-go.
Tried flashing both ZV7aboot.img and twrp2.6.3.0.img into their appropriate partitions (boot and recovery).
Still having problems, but now I cant do any button combination (except DownloadMode. Cant turn off) after ZV7aboot.img flash.
I dont want to erase my memory (~26GB of valuable data). Is there a way to flash a ZV8Radio.zip from fastboot? I think thats my problem, but Im not too sure. Just access to recovery would allow my to fix my problems.
Thanks anyone for any help! I think I really screwed myself over this time. Thanks everyone!
Edit: Anyone know where to get a boot.img and system.img for the Sprint LS980?
zv7_aboot.img isn't a boot.img, it's the bootloader. Use FreeGee to install twrp, it will handle the aboot for you. Then you can take advantage of the last sentence.

I am stuck in fastboot. No recovery. Download mode is also accessable.
Which of the following would help:
* System.img and Boot.img (where to find em?)
* A kernel .img (Do they exist?)
* Flashing the ZV7 or 8 aboot.img oncemore with twrp.img again?
Thanks for coming to help! It means a lot.

If you can boot into a rom, use FreeGee to install twrp. If you can't boot into rom and recovery, you need to flashtool.

Flashtools is asking for login and password. ?
Does this mean I have to wipe all user data in order to use it?
Edit: Do you know where System.img and Boot.img could be downloaded? I think its my only hope.

Thanks for the link! That was extremely helpful.
What I did to gain access to twrp again was:
Download boot.img from the link.
Download aboot.img from link.
Download twrp.img (but this isnt necessary, file is already available on phone. No need.)
* Enter command 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'
* (If you hold power it starts showing LG Logo.)
* Go back to Fastboot. Enter command 'fastboot flash aboot aboot.img'
* Now TWRP access is regained! Phone doesnt boot normally, must flash ROM and stuff again.
Thanks a lot! This was an okay first fastboot experience.
Soft Bricked Sprint LS980?
Hello, I'm having a similar problem. I haven't had a phone for a couple years since tinkering with my Evo and thought I still knew what I was doing with my new G2. That proved to be incorrect.
I had it semi rooted. (I followed the instructions using Ioroot and Kingo) I wasn't able to change APN and use GSM for Metro PCS
After reading up about the spark patch I followed a tutorial (not very well obviously) and managed to get the phone will it will no longer boot.
I can get it into bootloader, and a frozen in download mode. otherwise it just hangs at the LG logo.
Is there a way to recover from bootloader?
I copied twrp-2.6.3.2-g2spr.img and zv7-aboot.img to the phone and did the following.
Here are the commands I used with the guide. I looks like I was using 2 different guides at once..... :/

Hit the build number under about phone --> software until developer mode is enabled
goto developer mode turn on mtp mode
go download twrp from there site http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/197
I used kingo but cant link on xda ,, google it .. its on cnet as well

copy the downloaded openrecovery for sprint onto the phone directly into the "root" folder (root folder being like when you look at yoru C: drive in windows explorer that is the root folder under linux), when you plug into the pc, make sure in mtp mode
with phone still plugged in run kingo and root it
it will reboot
with phone plugged in run "adb usb" from command prompt on pc (from the link for adb that it installed, it will open a command prompt for you in the proper folder when you click it)
approve adb connection on phone
then run "adb shell" from command prompt on pc
type su, approve it on phone
paste this next line exactly at the prompt
********** this is the line I used from a different guide ***** dd if=/sdcard/zv7-aboot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot

let it flash
it will say bytes copied and you will be good
type reboot inside the shell
the phone will reboot
I use goo manager from play store to boot into recovery, I dont even know the key combo for it yet.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Alright, sorry to comment on something 3 months old, but I just had this problem and managed to solve it.
When in the mode described above, you are still able to use Fastboot. Get a linux computer and install fastboot.
Then, go here: http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/LS980/Stock_Firmware/zvc_partitions
Download the images for laf, aboot, boot, and recovery.
type the following commands in fastboot:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase aboot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase laf
fastboot flash boot 6-boot.img
fastboot flash aboot 4-aboot.img
fastboot flash recovery 10-recovery.img
fastboot flash laf 11-laf.img
fastboot reboot
This fixed the problem for me. Good luck!

Sorry for not replying, but I see you managed to fix your problem. All you needed to do was download .img files, then enter commands through fastboot. Although it is slightly more complicated than that, its the rough outline of what needs to be done to fix it. Nice work fixing your problem. I came back to this thread to remind myself of the commands that need to be entered (My comments help myself).
I think I am just going to copy-paste the quoted box above if anyone needs instructions how to do this. Thanks for the quick guide I can use to help others!
bricked , simple fix?

this process (which i got from a different thread originally)
bricked my phone Lg G2 (Ls 980 sprint 32 gb)
i was on remote connection with my friend attempting all kinds of flashes (mostly custom roms and recoveries)
what he did
he FIRST flashboot erase aboot
and then erased all the other files
foolishly he then used fastboot reboot BEFORE reflashing the necessary images
this leaves me with a device that is practically 100% empty all hardware no software
i have no response no life not even a backlight EXCEPT
i can plug into windows and see Qdloader9008 is connected comport 3
and i can communicate with the device on ubuntu terminal although im not too farmiliar with terminal syntax so im not having much luck
im convinced it is as simple as reflashing at least a working recovery or download mode from which i can install everything else i nee
between QPST, Terminal, and or some other method
sorry for Noob ish ness
any help would be appreciated even if just help with a better understanding of what to do next
payment is possible

Sorry, I barely understood what to do originally. What you have to do next is to reflash the aboot/boot/ whatever partitions but getting to that position might be difficult. Maybe some sort of command would allow you to connect to it oncemore?
Sorry, try to look into it more and see if a dev could help. Try posting something in /r/lgg2 but then again I cant be certain anything would happen. Good luck!
Easy guide
Since the problem keeps happening to people heres a quick tutorial I made.
Download and install this (PC only?)
Now go here. (D802) (D800) (LS980) (VS980) (D803) (Device tree/others)Download the images for laf, aboot, boot, and recovery.
Place the 4 .img files in the same folder. Control right click in that folded and open terminal. If this isn't how you open terminal in a folder search"how to open terminal in a folder".
(NOTE: Commands below will differ from the file names. Change the values in the parenthesis to match the files, HOWEVER, do not type the parenthesis into the terminal prompt! It will not work if you do.)
type the following commands in fastboot:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase aboot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase laf
fastboot flash boot (6-boot.img)
fastboot flash aboot (4-aboot.img)
fastboot flash recovery (10-recovery.img)
fastboot flash laf (11-laf.img)
fastboot reboot
You should be fine now!
Unbrick Ls980 formatting partitions
Do this: (only for LS980)
1. Download the adb.zip file
2. Unzip in you computer the adb.zip file
3. Connect your phone LS980 to your computer
4. Run "particiones lg g2.bat"
5. Enter in download mode and flash the phone
6. enjoy your phone

I want to say thank you so much for this thread. Just got a new (refurb) G2 switching carriers to T-Mo and my idiot self used the wrong root program and soft bricked to fastboot. 4 .img files later and a few commands and I don't think I've ever been so happy to see a download screen on a phone...

Files all courupted
With stock recovery you can't use adb sideload in windows 10.
If you're unlocked i would flash Codeworkx TWRP, download the OOS 5.0.1 Full Rom Zip, boot into TWRP, copy the zip to your phone or sideload the zip.
If you're not unlocked (and thus being unable to flash twrp) use windows 7 and sideload the zip.
You can download ADB drivers here
Can you boot? Turn on USB debugging , make sure that you allow the device when booted.
Do an advanced devices when in the OS make sure it's there.
Then you can install a TWRP recovery and do what you need to.

Hi bro, I am unlocked ! I mange to find a win7 pc. I ran both commands “adb devices” and “Fastboot devices”
Both shows me my devices number hence drivers are working fine.
Now do I flash twrp and sidleload? Because I can’t sideload in stock “error: *cant read zip*”. Do advice me!
PS: can boot into OS, no OS in system only recovery . USB debugging was on before boot loop happens! Thanks for all advices !

be sure your bootloader is unlocked
turn your phone into fastboot
open command prompt to the folder your twrp is in.
rename the twrp image file to recovery.img
do the following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
after that boot into recovery
press adb sideload
on the computer, open command prompt to the folder where your zip file is in.
rename the rom zip file to rom.zip
do the following command: adb sideload rom.zip
done!
Thanks bro, I shall update you on the situation once I done, at work now.
Do I need to “open command promt “ at my sdk folder/plat-form tools?

be sure your bootloader is unlocked
turn your phone into fastboot
open command prompt to the folder your twrp is in.
rename the twrp image file to recovery.img
do the following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
after that boot into recovery
press adb sideload
on the computer, open command prompt to the folder where your zip file is in.
rename the rom zip file to rom.zip
do the following command: adb sideload rom.zip
done!

nice good to hear!
haha, well tourists like Amsterdam so do visit that and visit The Hague/Scheveningen. I like these 3 places the most I think. Look up TripAdvisor for good attractions once you're there. do visit 'The Amsterdam Dungeon' don't miss that, I liked it very very much!
how to install the drivers?
maikvitesse said:
With stock recovery you can't use adb sideload in windows 10.
If you're unlocked i would flash Codeworkx TWRP, download the OOS 5.0.1 Full Rom Zip, boot into TWRP, copy the zip to your phone or sideload the zip.
If you're not unlocked (and thus being unable to flash twrp) use windows 7 and sideload the zip.
You can download ADB drivers here

Cannot adb to the phone in FASTBOOT. adb devices shows nothing when in FASTBOOT, but shows the device when in normal boot.
Hence I cannot upgrade TWRP from 3.2.1-1 to 3.2.3-0. Was trying this so to upgrade from beta23 to the beta 26, now 27 with which 3.2.1-1 seems to have problems.
A 2nd approach, just re-installing beta23 without Magisk18 gives the stock recovery which manages the beta27 install. But then I'm blocked from a Magisk18 install and still cannot use FASTBOOT mode to put TWRP back on.
Thought the adb drives could be old and sought new drivers, even assuming your link is to the most current I don't know how to get my Windows7 to use the zip file. Can you assist? This would let me put the latest TWRP, hence install Magisk18 and be rooted again!

Same with me...i am just gonna go and fix the display...
Hi,
Download the rom you previously had to your computer if you didn't have it, extract the zip, boot the phone into fastboot mode and connect it to your PC.
In the extracted zip, there should be a boot.img file. From a computer terminal where fastboot is present, do:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
The easiest is if you copy the boot.img file to the folder where fastboot.exe (if windows) resides and then run the command above.
Then reboot the phone again and it should boot just fine again.

But OP stated their bootloader was locked.
If TWRP is still also installed on your actual recovery partition (so that you can still boot it after the next step), you can just adb sideload <ROM.zip> while TWRP is booted and you are connected to a PC to reinstall a ROM along with it's boot partition.
Another thing you could do if you have the boot.img is to boot TWRP, copy the file to your phone and then on your PC run
adb shell dd of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot if=/sdcard/boot.img
Good luck for everyone who still needed this after a year
I'm 63 years old & could do with some help - trying to flash my Moto G4 but no luck
Hello folks.
I apologise in advance. I thought something was a good idea, and I said to myself I would give it a try and I won't give up, but I have been at this for about 5 hours now and no progress.
I have a Moto G4 which my wife gave about a year ago. I don't like stock Android and want to install Lineage OS onto it. I understand that first I need to:
1. Unlock my bootloader (done)
2. Install ADB Driver Installer onto my Dell (done)
3. Install Minimal ADB and Fastboot onto my Dell (done)
4. Plug my G4 into my Dell using the correct cable. It seems to work as the ADP Driver Installer / APK Installer recognises it as per the image below
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1QZAu9ZrCsKBhUcCofo2bde5aB89v76TB
5. Open up the command promt in the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder, type adb devices - the device is recognised
6. Here is where the problems start!
(a) At this stage, as soon as I type adb reboot bootloader, the G4 reboots but as it does, it disappears from the ADB Diver Installer / APK Installer!
(b) Soon after when I type fastboot flash recovery twrp.img then nothing is found, no files or directory or anything.
I don't understand what I am doing wrong and am very stuck sadly.

Would really appreciate some help from you young clever guys!
Thank you.

It says no twrp.img in that folder.
Because You renamed it's name to twrp.img.img ?
Try flash with "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img.img"
common file extensions are not shown in name, or while rename, but you added ".img" at last, so it is doubled..
Hello sir,
Copy the twrp file to the folder where ADB is installed. The folder is located in C drive.
Next you can Shift+right click, open powershell/cmd, whichever is there.
Now type in command
" fastboot flash recovery tw" and click tab button. After tab button, click enter.
This should be done when phone is in bootloader mode and connected to laptop/PC.
after the command execution is over, you can reboot to recovery.
First flash Ex kernel and then flash magisk, in THIS ORDER ONLY, OR YOUR PHONE WILL BRICK!
And voila, you have root! Flash anything!

Thank you for your suggestion. I did exactly as you said, in fact I tried different variations - I changed twrp.img to just twrp, then tried the command fastboot flash recovery twrp.img, nothing and then I changed it back to how it was, twrp.img and tried the command again, this time ending with twrp.img.img and nothing. Result is as shown below (bootloader not found / not signed or corrupted).
