Got an LG G2 D802 which recently was stuck in fastboot only,no download mode not anything at all,
after many tries and errors i managed to boot to download mode and flash an apropriate version.
The thing is from that moment i cant seem to get in factory reset screen through Power Down + Power button as it used on the beginning i press the is im supposed and the phone just normaly boots,never get on factory reset or recovery,I can only enter the recovery via application from playstore called Reboot Recovery.
I can still factory reset from settings but i want to know why i cant enter with the other way and i think it a necessary function to have just in case.
How can i fix this in order to get in factory reset when the device is turned off?
How can i install twrp without autorec because this was the problem which bricked my phone?(download zip and install from current recovery?)which twrp do i need for the following device?
Any info on dorimanx kernel?
Android version 4.4.2
Build Number KOT49I.D80220h
kernel version 3.4.0
Model LG G2 D802
Did you use a kdz file or tot file?

You're running 4.4.2 which is KitKat. KitKat Recovery is accessed by holding PWR + VOL DWN, then when the LG logo appears, switching to VOL DWN + VOL UP. You are trying the old method for Jellybean Recovery.

BEFORE FOLLOWING THIS MAKE SURE YOU HAVE WORKING ADB DRIVERS INSTALLED AND CAN CONFIRM COMMUNICATION WITH YOUR PHONE VIA ADB COMMANDS!
You can install TWRP without autorec, which will result in keeping your KitKat bootloader. This method is also called BUMP. Follow my steps:
1. Download your KDZ from here. If you are already running Stock KitKat, no need.. just continue to step 2. I like to do everything from a clean/fresh installation that's all.
2. Root your stock KK with StumpROOT.
3. Download Bumped TWRP from here.
Extract the recovery.img file from the downloaded TWRP .rar archive.
4. Next we need your boot.img file currently on your phone. We can extract your boot.img to your sdcard by running the following command:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img
Once your boot.img is on your sdcard, move it to your computer via usb or adb, your choice.
5. Download Windows BUMP Tool.
6. Bump your boot.img file with the Windows BUMP Tool. This will result in a newly created bumped.img file. Delete your original boot.img and rename bumped.img to boot.img
7. Next we need to force your phone into fastboot mode (as much as that might scare you!), we can do that by running the following command via adb/shell.
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot
8. BEFORE WE GO ANY FURTHER, You should have 2 files on your computer: recovery.img, and your newly renamed boot.img (bumped with the Windows BUMP Tool). Next we need to reboot the phone in order to get into fastboot mode. So, REBOOT.
9. When your device reboots it will boot into fastboot as we nullified the boot partition. We now need to connect our device via adb and run the following commands,
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
These commands require your recovery.img and boot.img to be in the same folder as your fastboot.exe file.
(See the image below for an example)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Once successfully flashing your bumped recovery and bumped boot.img, run the following command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
.
That's it! You now installed TWRP without AutoRec, and kept your KitKat bootloader.

ALWAYS A BUMPED TWRP RECOVERY FROM HERE.

Dorimanx Kernel works great with a KK Bootloader, BUT YOU NEED TO HAVE A BUMPED VERSION OF THE DORIMANX KERNEL. All versions of Dorimanx above 9.1 are BUMPED.
I'll try your steps when i go home,
i've got installed the minimal adb driver which i found in my search for fixi g the fastboot problem of g2 i think this will be enough right?
for the twrp recovery cant i install it via sideload?from the recovery that it has now which is not twrp/cwm,its something else i dont know what but it has wipe cache install from cache install fro sideload

That should be okay. As long as you can use the fastboot command and fastboot.exe is present.

I have no idea, I've never used sideload before. I'm just giving you my solution to installing TWRP without AutoRec from the facts stated in your original post. We both have the D802 model and my methods above have worked flawlessly for me multiple times after reflashing a compatible KDZ. Good luck and take it slow.

Hello,
I had flashed this recovery and yesterday I saw Ripple efect on screen but today no rippling , may be because my battery charge is more than 50% today.
I made one backup but not able to pull it to my PC . Geting error:
remote object '/data/media/0/clockworkmod/backup/1970-02-20.00.19.44_LXB22.46-16' does not exist

You may be have got attracted to those new roms out there on the internet and would have probably bricked your device.Or maybe did some modding and in worst case somehow your phone bootlooped.
so please follow the guide for unbricking or solving bootloop issues:
CAUTION:
[1] FIRST OF ALL, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE.
[2] NEVER UNPLUG THE USB CABLE WHILE FLASHING IS IN PROGRESS.IT MIGHT PERMANENTLY BRICK UR DEVICE..
ONLY FOR ZENFONE 5,A501CG/00CG
download the required files:
[1] kitkat firmware: for zenfone5(a501cg/00cg only other zf5 users download appropriate firmware from asus support page): http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/A500CG/UL-ASUS_T00F-WW-2.21.40.44-user.zip
[2] adb/fastboot files: from here
[3] device drivers:if you do not have device drivers download and install pc link on pc from asus website,it will automatically install device drivers on your pc.(download from: http://liveupdate01.asus.com/pub/ASUS/LiveUpdate/Release/ZenFone/APP/LinkRim/PCLinkSetup.exe)
IF U R BRICKED PROCEED FROM STEP 2 ELSE FOR BOOTLOOP START FROM STEP 1:
step 1] try booting into recovery and perform a factory rest and wipe cache if this solves the bootloop(in most cases it should).if it still bootloops then follow the following tutorial
step 2]extract the fastboot files on the desktop and paste the firmware(it will be in .zip)in the fastboot folder
step 3]after copying the firmware also extract and copy the recovery.img and fastboot.img file from the firmware into the fastboot folder. (don't remove original firmware zip)
now your fastbootfolder should contain fastboot files+recovery.img+fastboot.img+firmware you dowloaded(compressed in .zip)
step4]boot into the fastboot by switching off the phone and powering it on by power+vol up key until asus logo comes up
if u r returning from some other rom u need to relock the bootloader so scroll some below to see how to relockbootloader.
step5]once you booted to fastboot ,open command promt in fastboot folder (downloaded earlier) by pressing right click+shift in any blank space on folder screen and selecting open command promt here.
in cmd write:
step6]
Code:
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
step7] fastboot reboot-bootloader
wait until reboot is complete then write
step8]
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
step9] now we will be erasing data and cache for a clean flashing
Code:
fastboot clear data
fastboot clear cache
both of them take time and screen may turn off to save power so don't panic
next use volume keys to navigate to recovery and select it using power key .once your phone boots up showing android with belly open symbol press and hold volume up+volume down until recovery menu appears.if that does not open recovery try this:
hold volume down button, click and release vol up button,,,then finally release vol down button.
i admit it brothers,,it is sometimes really difficult to boot into recovery...but keep trying,,it is a bit difficult but is fruitful
if it doesnt appears it may be due to unssucceful flashing, unplug usb cable,force switch off phone by holding power button for few seconds.now again boot in bootloader by power button and vol up key and repeat from :step[8]
once in recovery select apply update from adb
step10] write on cmd
Code:
adb sideload <downloaded firmware name>.zip
for convenience you can rename firmware to kk.zip or any thing you like so command will be adb sideload kk.zip(it may take 15 to 20 mins)
step 11]once thats done select wipe data and cache in recovery and at last select reboot from recovery menu(dont skip this else you may face freezing on welcome screen itself)
hopefully you will boot into homescreen and be patient first bootup may take upto 20 mins.
[UPDATE] HOW TO RELOCK BOOTLOADER{only for zenfone 5 other device users pls google the procedure}
(USE THIS ONLY IF U R RETURNING FROM ANY CUSTOM ROM ITS NOT NEEDED FOR BOOTLOOPING PROBLEM)
hi guys i know u will be needing to relock the bootloader while returning to stock rom..
so what u have do is use the following steps before flashing fastboot.img that is before STEP [5] mentioned above
[1] download this file (its a zip file extract it using password zenfone-five.blogspot.com)...(link=https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0o7qWuG7vvVRE9CV0hJWGRJS2c/view?usp=sharing)
[2]follow the on screen instructions
after the bootloader is locked carry on the steps from step[5]
PLEASE NOTE---THE UNLOCKING/LOCKING TOOL PROVIDED ABOVE IS NIETHER WRITTEN NOR OWNED BY ME...ALL CREDIT GOES TO ITS RESPECTIVE DEVELOPERS
this method can be used for:
1]unbricking
2]returning to stock rom
3]bootloop issues
IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO BOOT INTO FASTBOOT(maybe stuck on usb logo)--see this: http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=33800 it is written by asus guys and will help you
thanks

then try a guide on the forums by the name "de-brick with ruined partitions" i dont remember correctly but you'll find it easily
okay hello people.
here is my situation.
i was about to revert back to kitkat from ED300 CM12.1, and i suddenly wipe off and formatted my internal storage.
and now ofcourse i cant boot in and what i did was trying to reinstall TWRP through fastboot and minimal adb from PC.
*i tried to flash Lenovo_A6000_TWRP-3.0.2-0_x64-L_by_SevenMaxs
*i cant go into download mode (vol+,vol-,power) button.
so i went to fastboot mode (vol-,power) button until the 'powerkey long press can reboot phone' appear , and i plug in my phone to pc and when i type in command for -adb devices, no device appear.
figure out it was okay, i go ahead and proceed with - fastboot boot recovery.img command.
then it shows
FAILED (remote: dtb not found)
and im stuck there. idk what else to do, which guide to follow to bring my phone back to life.
i have did hours of searching but nothing works. really need a magic here.
thanks guys for ur time

BTW if "fastboot devices" not showing any devices then try to properly install fastboot on computer."fastboot boot twrp.img" is command for boot the twrp without flashing.
try "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" .
p.s:-Try to flash different recovery file.It may be corrupted.

Here is the possibilities:-
1)May be fastboot is not properly installed .I gave a link in the previous post for that. "device not found" that shouldn't be appear.
2)Try vol+ +power button
3)Try if stock recovery can be flashed by fastboot.Link.if can be then let me know.
4)If not then run this command in adb
Code:
adb shell
ls -al /dev/block/platform/dw_mmc/by-name
and give a screen shot.
Did you flash kitkat ROM after this or before this fuss?
If Yes, then you need to flash TWRP for kitkat firmware.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8_p5nNeW71VRFZnc3cwb2hLR28/view?usp=sharing
download the above recovery and download flashify from playstore . Flash the recovery that you downloaded from above link with flashify and reboot and in the next step you will be in the recovery

Then ur device is good to go.I found a recovery flashble stock rom in help or guide thread few days ago.Search it.
Also if there is recovey flashable T.W.R.P available somewhere u can flash it also.

Does the rom link given here unzips perfectly?
Because i saw in another thread of Lenovo K8note titled firmware, users unable to unzip due to error in system img. Also downloading from baidu needs a user id. If its possible could you or anyone else reading this upload it in some other online storage drive. Im little bit worried about getting a worse situation while rooting. Even if it goes wrong i can use the stock firmware to make it back.

Yes, I think so. Anyhow there is no need to unlock oem again if you are flashing the rom via TWRP. Anyhow let someone confirm about it.

No need to unlock bootloader again if you use fastboot method to flash stock firmware , & for spflashtool I'm not sure but I think it remains unlocked

No error while extracting firmware downloaded from baidu
Hello, Possessing two tablets of this brand, I was wondering if a custom recovery existed for this one, I can look everywhere on all the forums, Russian, English, etc ... But, I do not find.
If anyone can create one with this SOURCE CODE from the tablet that would be super nice.
I succeded to install twrp on my lenovo x606F.
1) extract recovery.img from a downloaded full firmware
2) download "Mediatek (MTK) Auto TWRP recovery porter by Team Hovatek" v. 1.6 and use it to create a twrp.img from your recovery
3) flash your twrp image by adb:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
4) then flash an empty vbmeta.img that you find on team hovatek site by this command (Method 3 - Flashing vbmeta https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-32719.html ):
fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
5) reboot in recovery. You will receive a message that your partition is encrypted. tap "cancel" and follow the steps indicated on this page (Method 3 - Patching fstab in /vendor partition using TWRP + Text editor https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-30160.html ). You have to backup on your microsd your two fstab.* files in /vendor/etc folder and then modify as indicated. Then, by twrp, overwite them on your original files.
6) reboot in android and flash your original recovery
7) reboot in your stock recovery and make a full data erase. YOU LOST ALL YOUR PERSONAL DATA.
8) reboot in android and reinstall twrp recovery
9) reboot in your full working twrp recovery and check if it is all ok.
When you boot in your twrp, your screen is black, so you have to push power button to light your screen. You can fix it
by checking all three option in magisk manager (keep encryption, keep verity and recovey mode) and reinstall magisk root.
I'm not responsable for any damage on your device. Sorry for my english

Are you sure? TWRP Recovery Porter says that vbmeta.img must be flashed BEFORE twrp image.
I made several attempts to install twrp. When I succeeded, I installed vbmeta.img after twrp. But, during my previous attempts, I had already installed vbmeta. So, it is possible that the right steps are to install it first.
So, did anyone else succeed with these steps?

Nope. I tried 3-4 times, no way. The only result is that my tab's clock becomes late 11k seconds after each reboot

I just rooted Lenovo M8 FHD TB-8705F (Android 9) using the Hovatek Method 3 guide:
flashed empty vbmeta
flashed boot.img created by Magisk
I tried the steps above with the TB-X606F on Android 10 (I used the lenovo recovery tool to rescue os and ended up with android 10) and I am unable to get it working. If I flash the generated twrp image and the vbmeta one (doesn't matter which order) and reboot recovery I get a black screen and no amount of pushing the power button gets the screen to turn on. I have not tried the boot.img file generated by Magisk yet. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Hi all,
I got my TB-X606F today and I'm having a hard time getting fastboot to work. I installed the official MTK driver from google and in my device manager its visible as Android ADB Interface
on my tablet I see the fastboot mode in the lower left corner.
fastboot devices shows nothing on cmd.
Any ideas?

I have the same problem and can't proceed rooting for this reason.
adb works fine. Device is shown, commands like reboot into fastboot mode works fine. But "fastboot devices" does not show an entry.
I've tried to (re-) install the drivers CDC, VCOM, ... several times. I'v tried the "Latest ADB Fastboot and USB Driver installer tool for Windows". Doesn't work.
In device manager, Android Bootloader Interface is shown with an error.

To fix this update your driver to Samsung's adb interfrance and it will work.
I got my TB-X606F rooted but struggle to install TWRP. I believe I'm on Android 10, the latest? I used [Hovatek] Mediatek Auto TWRP Recovery Porter V1.7a by Team Hovatek because I couldn't find version 1.6. I got the recovery.img directly from TB-X606F_S300007_200923_BMP.zip. I select Android 10 in the Android Version and output the TWRP recovery. Then I flashed and flashed the vbmeta (both the version from my zip file and the version from Hovatek. Then I flashed using multiple instructions. When I boot to recovery, it just gives the orange box screen then eventually fully boots to OS. Anything I'm forgetting?
I upgraded to Android 10. I installed again twrp by "Mediatek Auto TWRP Recovery Porter V1.7a". Android 10 version don't work well. "Pie Kernel 4.9.117" version works perfectly. The steps I follow are similar to my previous post. Insted of "forceencrypt" there is "forcefdeorfbe" in fstab.mt6765 file.
