[Q] Lg F320S Stuck on bootloop

Hi all,
My phone is bricked with following syptoms:
1) Not being recognised in download mode
2) Adb without root acess (unable to push files)
3) No recovery
Detailed problems
I have a (Korean) Lg G2 (F320s) and its stuck on bootloop. It goes into download mode with Vol + with plugging into computer but the computer doesnt recognise it as attached...no sound, nothing in device manager and no found by Lg Flashtools or Kdz updater.
When simply turning on i connect it to the PC it shows as an ADB interface device and i have ADB but no root authorization (my phone was rooted before).
Lastly when i try to enter recovery it just flashes a couple of times and goes black...back light still on. In this mode when i connect it to PC it shows up several drives and phone comes up as Qhsusb_bulk device. I read a thread using UBUNTU to repair this but it wont work for me....the PC just hangs up and Ubuntu is unable to mount the drives (Even after the settings from Dconf Editor).
Please help i have been stuck for days
Please help
Please help ppl... is there a possible solution to the problem..?? JTAG maybe??

[Q] Soft bricked I337 isn't recognized by pc

I'm on a rooted I337 that has been factory reset and under normal boot originally told me that normal boot has failed and was stuck with downloading.... but now tells me to select recovery mode in Kies also Download mode is still accessible. Before the crash I was working with a towelrooted 4.4.2. The problem is that nothing I do allows my computer to recognize it, It tells me that the device has malfunctioned and can't be identified. I've changed usb ports and cords and uninstalled/reinstalled drivers. Kies and Odin don't recognize it, but when I took it to a phone repair shop they were able to push a file that changed the normal boot error to what it is now, he gave it back to me to mess with and I could fix it if I could connect to it. Any help with this would be amazing
Thanks in advance
My I337 just got soft bricked earlier today, I made changes to my build.prop file to make it appear to be a Nexus 5, and rebooted just fine. I initially made a backup of the stock build.prop, so I decided to revert back to the stock file. when I rebooted, it gets frozen after the samsung screen and vibrates on any button press. I can boot into download and recovery mode, but I am unable to access the device via adb or kies.

Oneplus 2 Bricked Windows doesn't recognize the phone

I bought a oneplus 2 and tried to flash a kernel meant for nougat based roms on the stock rom leading to a laggy hot phone so i used the format data tool in TWRP and it deleted my OS. I tried to hook my phone up to my pc in recovery mode, fast boot mode, and qualcomm mode all with the same result. I get this in device manager "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)" I've tried every driver every tool. I've tried everything to no avail. The problem isn't that the phone is bricked its just that i can't get the rom on the phone because of the device error. Thank you in advance.
Hello,
Looks like your new to the community so first off welcome! First things first, its practically impossible to brick these phones. I have been in your position before and I didn't know what to do. The quickest way would be to go to one plus live chat and tell them what has happened and they will help you by controlling your PC to fix the phone. They are more than happy to help with a device in this state as its just the software that's gone.
If you want to do it yourself, can you hold the vol down button on your phone and plug it in to your PC (still holding vol down). Then go to device manager and tell me what it says. It should flag up as a Qualcomm device. May have more info (I haven't soft bricked my device in a while)

Grand Prime G530FZ HARD BRICK

Hi, i can't go to download mode / recovery mode, when i try to turn on it, i see only black screen, i tried to remove and reinsert the battery,i tried with different combinations to turn on the smartphone, when i plug the smartphone to pc , while trying to turn on, i usually listen the sound of recognized USB from windows, but from the device manager i see only Unknow Device, i'm sure i have the correct drivers because before this problem, odin recognized that.
USB JGI doesn't work...
EDIT: i tried adb and fastboot commands but it doesn't recognize anything.

Device not detected with Computer

Hello,
I'm posting to XDA Developers today because I'd appreciate to get some assistance with a Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) device.
A few weeks ago, a custom rom had been flashed but it unfortunately failed for some reason and now the device is stuck on a bootloop (Stuck on the Samsung logo), and it seems that it doesn't have any IMEI anymore (Field empty).
However, I can still access TWRP and the Download Mode.
The problem here, is that my device is not detected by the computer. When I put the device on Download Mode and connect it, Odin doesn't show it (Which would mean that the device isn't detected by the computer).
Also, when I put my device in sideload mode (With TWRP), it isn't recognized as well.
I've tried to reinstall the drivers but nothing worked.
Thank you all in advance for all your help,
Have a nice day.
