Need help. Communicating with server error.

Hey guys, I need help.
Let me explain as much as I can.
I bought a Droid X, it was rooted. When verizon factory reset it, it must have messed something up because now everytime I turn the phone on, it just stops at the backup assistant screen and says "Communicating with server". I cannot get past it. Its weird, because the camera will work, and even when the "communicating with server" goes away its just a black screen, but you can still see and use the status bar. Im so lost. I have done soft/hard resets, nothing works.
Is there any way I could load a rom onto the SD card via my computer, then boot it when I get into recovery mode? The only thing I've found online was I'd need to download a rom from an app I get from the market. Is there a way to install a from without doing that since I absolutely cannot get to the market?
Any help or suggestions would help. Any little thing you can think of would help. Thanks

Google search how to sbf. That should be all you need to do

Need urgent help please

Hi guys, recieved my phone back from T-Mobile all repaired and working again
I ran the Advanced Hack kit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259821&highlight=ace+hack+kit, followed the instructions, it all went well, said it completed. Phone hung on T-Mobile flash screen for 15 mins. Pulled battery, powered up, hanging for another 15 mins.
Powered up into Hboot, still S-On.
I can access Clockwork recovery OK also.
Phone still hanging, so selected restore factory settings. Hangs at flash screen.
I restored my Back-up of RCMix3D (probably a bad idea, but ran out of things to try). Rebooted, hangs at T-Mobile screen again.
I'm pulling my hair out now, what can I try??
I wanted to try the Hack tool again, but it won't connect without the phone booted. Also, I tried running an RUU, again it won't run without the phone booted.

I just copied the stock T-Mobile PD98IMG to the SD card, updated, went smoothly, now won't boot at all

Well,
if you talk to attn1 again, please tell him to contact me.. I'm stuck with my dhd aswell.
My problem is:
Few months ago i rooted my unbranded DHD, installed CyanogenMod 7.1, it worked perfectly fine for a couple of months, but a few days ago, my phone was on but did not respond anymore. I tried to reboot it, but it got stuck at the white screen with the HTC logo (sometimes it bootloops, other times it freezes)
I rebooted the phone with the volume down key pressed, so it would give me that menu,
scrolled down to "Recovery", i get the recovery menu from ClockworkMod, but then my volume key does not work ! i can not do whipe or anything else, the phone freezes.
I mounted the SD card in my PC, cleared it, put a rom in root of SD card and call the rom "PD98IMG.zip" and put the SD card back in my phone. I start the phone with the volume key down pressed, i get that
white screen with the menu and it then finds the .zip file.
It then reads the image, parses the image and then tries to load "NV.img" on which my phone freezes again.
I tried CyanogenMod and LeeDroid, and a stock rom. They all do the same thing, as written above.
When i connect my phone to my PC, my pc tries to install the driver, but gives me an error, saying the device is not known. I have installed both HTC Sync and the SDK. Tried it when i had only HTC Sync
installed, did not work either.
I also tried a RUU (.exe file) but this program tells me there is no device connected...
My phone is over a year old, so i have no warenty anymore, that's why i rooted it.

[Q] My phone is dead on stock...(due to rooting/unlocked failure?) Please help!

Hello XDAers,
I am a real noob at rooting or android-related, and a true one voided of any knowledge regarding anything IT- related.
So dear veterans, please go easy on me.
Due to my prior success of rooting and flashing my Nexus 4 successfully a few months back with no issues, I decided to give it a try to flash a custom ROM for my dad's LG Optimus L7 - which seemed an easy task compared to configuring my Nexus 4 - since there was no need for inputting any command lines or any dealing with the abd (using the easy shortcut, that is).
So, I followed the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906133 ...
I first factory resettled the phone because it was bloated, then applied the "RunMe.bat" from the "What you desire!" folder. (Everything was already backed-up beforehand.) But the process didn't success until I've retried again and again by re-plugging the USB in because the application/PC couldn't detect the phone. In the same time, I was running KDZ_FW_UPD.exe in the background, so unexpectedly for me the phone shut itself and pushed itself to a vividly green emergency screen, then in a few seconds switched back to a screen of purple-white-blue glitches. I had to close KDZ_FW_UPD.exe without knowing what quite happened since it seemed to be the cause and restarted the process with RunMe.bat.
I didn't manage to "Restore" it first due to the fact that the phone stopped responding due to a lag asking for an encryption key. It was lagging so hard and I had to close the cmd around 5 tries while it was processing, but succeeded later on.
And then, to verify whether I've actually suceeded in rooting L7, I installed Root Checker from the Play Store. And again, for the first few tries the program froze on screen for a long period of time due to "system performance", but after rebooting and restarting the app a few times again, the ROOTING proves to be a success. Just to be sure, around this time I've reloaded KDZ_FW_UPD.exe and it suceeded.
So I went to install CWM and ES. CWM for recovery boot and ES for removing pre-installed system apps as the phone was lagging so badly. I've downloaded the CWM restoring(something like ~6.0.28?) first and tried fastbooting immediately right after, but instead of getting the fastboot menu I got a screen emptied in black with these words:
[5020] "Secure booting error"
[5020] "Cause: boot certification verify"
No hard keys could do anything on the presumed "fastboot", and so I had to hard boot again. I thought that it might be due to the lack of memory(checked on ES later on that it was 310~MB/2GB), and so I've used ES to uninstall a lot of system apps which I deemed uneccessary. So I've Googled a bit and it became apparent to me that that I've didn't unlock the device properly, so lurked around and found a file called L7CWM that is supposedly to resolve my problem, but I presume that it's the CWM recovery image that I've installed. So in the end, I didn't bother with it but kept it on tab just in case.
I repeated the same process with CWM again, but this time, the screen was joined with all kinds of flowery glitches. Restarted the device, and it went only downhill: now the Home launcher stayed all pitch black and nothing appeared. I waited a few minutes, but nothing there until the notification bar appeared. The home screen is apparently dead, and so are the menu keys. Switched to Nova Launcher(installed it just in case Home Launcher fails), and still dead. I couldn't access using any of the menu keys and had unusable launchers.
Hopefully I could still access to the settings from my status bar, but when I did, it started crashing immediately.
I've repeated the attempt a few times after restarting the device a few times, but nothing helped. It only got worse that the when the launcher did SEEM to work. It only showed the wallpaper without showing any of the icons/apps. And crashes again.
I could still access to the App menu via the settings, but couldn't open any of them and when I tried to uninstall them, the screen frozes immediately right after I gain access to the page (white page though) and gain this message: "Unfortunately Package Uninstaller Stopped!"
Then I convinced myself that the only thing I could do at the time was to factory reset the phone and then everything would go alright since I've just had to restore the system apps.
But then the black screen of death came right along with it:
"Secure booting error"
It seems that I'm out of luck... ... But just to check if I'm still left with resorts, I've downloaded the L7CWM file online...
... ...but it still didn't help.
So now I'm being left with no other choices other than asking for help. I never really understand what KDZ_FW_UPD.exe does since I had the LG Driver already before installing it, which I presume was for updating the phone to a newer or older version. And too complex tech articles are kind of alien for me.
EDIT(1 hour later): Okay, now I figured out the reason why L7CWM didn't work was because I didn't extract it to the right folder (after double checked via notepad that I was supposed to directly put it into the C:\ drive). Now it worked(?), but then it didn't.
After launching Flash_Bootloader.bat:
This message now appeared on the L7:
"Sorry!"
"SuperSU is not responding.
Would you like to close it?"
"Wait - Report - Close"
and a few minutes later
"Sorry!"
"Unfortunately, SuperSU has stopped."
"Report - OK"
Now I think the bugs till now happened was due to the fact that I've deleted a file that was required for me to launch apps... Now I just need the right fix.
After 5 minutes of screen inactivity the phone restarted by itself, kind of creepy... ...
Flash_Recovery.bat did nothing.
Reboot2Recovery.bat made it reboot but still struck on the same menu.
Nothing seems to be effective via the phone anymore, seems like I have to rely on abd but then again I don't know how... ... My dad is also f*cking pissed off ^ ^;...

I think that I explained the logs pretty precisely in case I missed something... I'll be very very very very very very thankful if someone could tell me what has caused my phone to fail though.
For references, here are the phone's specifications:
Model Number: LG-P705g
Android version: 4.0.3 (Stock)
Rooted:Yes (root checker)
Baseband version: MSM7227A-1-AA
Kernel version: 3.0.8-perf
Build number: IML74K
Software version: V10e-AUG-10-2012
If I don't get the phone fixed to being usable soon I think that I will get butchered real hard... ... Preferably needs a step-by-step guide made for toddlers... ...

remove the battery for 10 seconds,put it back pres VOL+ and VOL - same time and than press the power button.when you feel a vibration press for many times the button wich is down in right,try for many times and maybe it will working :}

[LG L7 p705g] Hard brick

Hi guys, my phone is a LG L7 p705g unlocked, since 2 weeks from now it was working really weird, having lag, performance issues and even random reboots, i didnt care that much because i was using it to call and check whatsapp, after 2 days my whatsapp stopped working and asked me to reinstall it and so i did. I went to the play store, downloaded the app again and it kept saying "Whatsapp has a problem and it needs to be installed again". I tried to download it via .apk and it didn't work either, via whatsapp.com directly through the .apk and then using a file explorer and it didn't work either.
After a while i started to get frustrated and tried to do a hard reset, but guess what, it didn't work, i went through settings->security-> factory data reset, but it didn't work, it was just rebooting and that was it. Therefore i tried via hardware vol- , power and then menu. But it wasnt working either, it was just rebooting as well. My phone had the original KDZ that came from the factory and did a factory reset once, and it worked great that time.
Then i tried to reinstall the software but i couldn't find one that was for my country (venezuela movistar) and i used another one (from here: lg-phone -firmware. com/index.php?id_mod=13 and used the one "39 TFR/TELEFONICA(ECUADOR) V10B LGP705G" because it was the same "v10b" that my phone said so and using KDZ i flashed that firmware, it worked great, it worked for around 15mins or so, but i couldnt install whatsapp, kept saying the same error as before, and then 5mins later, it didn't turn on any more, and it isn't working. Somebody told me that it's a hard brick and it's unfixable, is it true?
PS: I can connect the phone to the PC and it says "FOUND NEW HARDWARE" but it won't turn on, i've tried the same to connect it with emergency mode (vol + vol - and power and then plug) but it isnt working. And my home button is broken, it has like 6 months not working so.. i cant use it in case you need some buttons sequence to be done.
Any idea what could be going wrong and if it's possible to fix it?
Sorry about my really long post and my awful english,

Help: G4 Plus won't start after accidentally hitting "Open" on icon pack install.

Help: G4 Plus won't start after accidentally hitting "Open" on icon pack install.
I got this phone literally yesterday, it's unrooted, worked perfectly fine until my hand slipped when installing an icon pack from the play store and I hit "Open" - the phone immediately crashed, and now will not boot. I've tried using standard power on, powering on through the recovery bootloader, and entering recovery mode through said bootloader, in every instance it displays the Motorola startup screen, plays through its sequence of animations, then as soon as the Lenovo brand icon shows on screen emits one long pulse of vibrate and then turns off again.
I can't pull the battery because I don't have the required micro-hex screwdriver. Can anyone help?

can you reboot to bootloader and start recovery? Then clear cache and see if it helps to boot your device? Or if not make a factory reset if it won't help. Maybe the icon pack screwed up something.
Report back. After that, if nothing worked, you can try this:
Is your device recognized by fastboot? If yes, try "fastboot devices" and see if it shows serial number.
Then try to flash the latest stock in the following guide rom if you have one of this devices https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138

Hi, thanks for responding. After four or five attempts to boot into recovery it succeeded; wiping the cache did nothing so I did a factory reset, which worked and now the phone will boot to the setup stage. Unfortunately now I'm getting "The device was reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device.", which after googling seems to be a security feature - the problem is it doesn't accept the google account credentials, every time I enter them it just cycles back to the "This device was reset..." screen again.
I know I'm not getting the details wrong since I made the account specifically for the phone and have the details written down. Any suggestions on how to proceed?
EDIT: Actually nevermind, I managed to follow along with a tutorial on how to bypass it using MotoService & ADB. Thanks again for replying.
