[SOLVED] help...soft brick!

Hi,
Today I stuffed up my phone... I owned a Sony Acro S and Transformer Prime, which I flashed custom roms and recoveries on both with no issues.
I thought I'd be ok to try my G2...I was wrong.
I was able to root the device perfectly, then searching around I found an apk file for flashing twerp recovery. Which I did then I chose to reboot the phone, thats when I got stuck on the LG start up screen and the LED flashed blue and green. Then I realized the way I tried to put twerp on isnt suitable for my model.though saying that if I hold the power and down button I can get into twerp, but then I reboot and get stuck on the LG screen again.
I am on Stock Kitkat and my model number is D802T Australian version.
Please help... step by step help would be great.
I thought I knew what I was doing and no im confused.
I have searched and tried a few methods which I was unable to fix my issue.
Thanks
Duane.

Oh, so you can enter twrp ? Why don't you install a rom ?
download mode = power off the device. Hold volume up + connect to pc.

[Q] my tmobile g2 is hardbriked :( help me

such friends have a big problem with my G2 I want meti up the volume on the stock rom kit kat and so we change the audio xml file I saw in a tutorial here in HTCMania, but restarting the phone will stay locked in bootloop where it says tmobile.
then proceeded to do hard reset thinking that would be solved well but after performing hard reset STAYING was still locked.
well I'll have to reinstall the software and told me when I headed to want to put the phone in download mode (off the phone and press Vol + connect usb cable) to my surprise the phone did not enter the download mode. the only thing it does is connect the cable to charge on and get off.
and since then I can not find a way to revive him because I can not install the software, and "NO I HAVE INSTALLED A CUSTOM RECOVERY" so do not'm desperate someone could throw me a light? if somehow you could do enter download mode on the phone in an alternative way?
my device is a rooted

First i would try getting in to recovery using the hardware keys. Look it up on you tube. Then you should be able to use a back up if you made one.
To get in download mode you need to power off then while powering on hold the vol down key and plug in the usb cable. That will get you in download mode. You shouldn't have to do that though if you have a back up. Your phone isnt bricked?

sorry friend, but is that as explained in the previous post: long press volume + but does not go into download mode, this as locked or not happens.: Llanto:

Jesus Christ.
Press and hold power and volume down until the display shuts off and the LG logo appears. Then, try pressing and holding volume up and volume down until a hard reset option appears. Reset the device and try booting it up. You will lose all data on it, but that's what you get if you're not smart enough to back it all up.

A hard reset will not help if he made changes to the system partition (which it sound like he did). If he has a recovery installed (kind of a weird sentence in the OP) this would take him into the custom recovery though.
@tuberodx7 If all else fails I'm convinced you can get it into download mode if you do it right, something like that should definitely not kill that. From there you can flash a factory image (Search for the return to stock thread in the General forum)... Your device is far from hardbricked, please do your research...

THis is general thread. Post it at Q/A.

Ok, if you're absolutely definitely positively sure you're doing it right and it still doesn't work, you might have to manually reflash some of the partitions... Refer to this thread (and be careful) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142

Zuk Z1 Soft Brick

Dear XDA friends,
i always hoped not to be one of those guys, who f****d up their phones to the point of no return. I really screwed up this time. Well, here I'am writing you about my screw up.
I unlocked, rooted, flashed and repaired all kinds of android phones in the past years, never without problems, but I could always fix it somehow. Not so much this time.
Now I'm stuck at Bootscreen with the Zuk logo. I even have problems pinging the phone via ADB.
Sorry for my noobish question guys. Any help would be much appreciated.

I got this translated from a chinese website:
For fastboot mode:
The phone turned off; keep the connection turned off the data cable to the computer, press: [volume down key] [Power Key] waiting to enter the fastboot mode.
For recovery:
Turn off the device
Press and hold Power key
When vibrates Volume UP key + Volume Down key about 10 seconds
Release all key when Android logo appear then you will see Android System Recovery
Use Volume key to select Menu
Use Power key to Confirm
Can you enter any of these 2 modes?

Does anyone know where can i find the scatter file , MTK ROM for zuk z1, i would like to try the SP flasher tool. Or if anyone have any idea how to solve this issue on lenovo zuk z1,pls. help.tnx

Can y get to fastboot ?

im facing the same problem after i had the stupid idea to lock the bootloader again, before that i flashed the phone successfully with the cm mod recovery and cm 13.
Has anyone found a solution to this ? or do i have to send it back ?
What i did exactly :
I locked the bootloader again and just to test it i tried flashing the recovery again , ofcourse it didn't work which was what i wanted.
Afterwards i rebootet the bootloader with sudo fastboot -i 0x2b4c reboot
now im stuck in a bootloop that i cant even stop , in other words i cant turn my phone off nor can i access the recovery or fastboot
Im feeling so stupid that i locked it again .... i will try to get into recovery after my phone ran out of battery but so far it looks quite bad...does anyone know if i will get a replacement even though it was my fault ? ( i don't need to say that it was my fault ..and the bootloader is now locked again )
UPDATE::
I found a promising thread about this problem, i will report back here if i was successful.

Please help , same problem
I am facing same issue too from 2 days. I didnt even try to flash custom roms or play with boot loader or recovery or anything. All of a sudden my phone entered boot loop. After two three bootloops phone is entering "12 apps optimized of 230 apps" mode, completing optimizing all apps and then failing to start apps, entering boot loop again.
Effort made so far to fix -
1) Went to recovery and cleared cache - didnt work
2) Went to recovery and did factory reset - factory reset did happen but boot loop didnt stop, I realized that factory reset happened because now its saying optimizing 120 apps instead of my 230 apps during the bootloop.
3) Went to recovery, Entered fast boot mode but not able to connect to PC. Fastboot devices is not showing anything. I made sure proper driver is installed after researching on XDA.
4) Went to recovery, Tried "Install update". Didnt install anything but browsed through folder structure and realized my data is intact
It will be great if someone can help me atleast recover my data before I handover phone to service center for fixing boot loop issue.

Sorry For Re-posting Here. This is Solution
Why this is happening ?
Due to Dirty Flash from Zui or from COS/CMOD but suddenly Bootloader gets locked
May be Due to Some Custom Rom which only works with Old Bootloader ( And you are on latest 2.5 Zui QPST Flash)
Reasons are many. I also did same mistake. I flashed ZUI 2.5 using QPST then unlock bootloader using official site installed twrp after wiping cache system and data , Installed Lineage 0S JAN Build then without rebooting installed Lineage Nightly build (Latest) with Gapps After rebooting Phone goes into Restart endless loop on ZUK Logo. Blink and Vibrate .. After 1hr I figured it out but its 5am So slept.
HOW TO FIX ENDLESS REBOOT ON ZUK Logo ?
-> Identity vibrate patterns (Press Power Key I count 6- 7 Vibration pattern ) After long Vibrate immediately remove finger from power key.
->Once its Done (Phone completely off)
Download QPST and Official COS QPST from this Link https://goo.gl/InWQji OR https://goo.gl/iqrnlI (I am personally Very Thankful to D tech Terminal for posting Wonderful video on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Dl6JkAVpuM
<- please install all drivers and software.->) @ankurpandeyvns Thanks bro.
Main Task is here and Lots of Patience is required and You also need to be very Blazing fast to achieve this.
-Once you download and install Qpst open Qfil
-Now press Volume Up only and connect USB (Just press POWER KEY only for 1 sec It will vibrate and connect)
-Without waiting hit Download button.
-Voila It will start flashing your phone again and Hence Your phone is now Revive..
-Once Revive You can use it to again flash custom Rom or stick to stock Rom if you want.
Keep Flashing !!!
Patience is Key here. And Don't lose hope.
:good:
EDITED:
While connecting to pc and by pressing Volume key you also need to press Power key for 1 sec or 2 sec until it gets detected. Thanks addicted777 (for tip)

When i googled my problem i found the same happend with oneplus one phones,
The problem was hard brick due to wrong rom, and windows can see the phone only as Cualcomm hs-usb Qdloader 9008, same as my case. And the problem solved for the oneplus one, so I have some hope that my phone will come back to life.

Hi I have a similar problem, I installed the correct cyanogenmod and recovery and it was working fine, but after today's update it shows the bootup logo and then gets stuck in a black flickering screen.
I can't seem to be able to boot neither to the recovery nor to the fastboot mode, no volume key combination seems to work.
All adb says is the device is unauthorized and fastboot doesn't seem to be able to even see the device.
I tried the vol+ and vol- and power and it does vibrate, if I use the vol+ only it seems to get stuck forever on the vendor's bootup logo and the device doesn't seem to be seen neither from fastboot nor adb.
Is there anything else I can try to unbrick it or is it gone?
Thank you in advance for your help

I have same problem, either stuck in bootloop (to the wileyfox screen and back to black) or just off. ONLY red charger light shows when I plug it in. Fastboot not working, recovery boot not working... NOTHING is working. On top of that I haven't even installed any roms, not rooted etc. All I did was reboot when it froze on a silly game I didn't mean to open WTFF

wileyfox dead
I have the same problem, bootloop, qualcomm 9008 no fastboot or adb recognition. I'm guessing was the OTA update cos I didn't install any roms at all. TOTAL waste of money, zero support too. It's a non-starter DO NOT BUY!!!!

Same here , interesting is the different device status between linux and windows,
at debian it's "offline" - at windows "unauthorized".

Stuck in fastboot mode

I dont know what happened but I rebooted my phone today and it booted into fastboot.. I cannot in any way get it to boot normally. The buttons are not being held down and I have tried to pull the battery.. I dont get it, anyone else have this issue and fixed it have an idea??

Was it stock (including recovery) or modified?
I would try to fastboot the TWRP over and then boot into that (Power & Vol+). But then... I seldom run stock.

No, it wasn't stock and I dont know what happened.. I was running the latest CM13 and rebooted this morning and it freezes up with the ASUS logo and saying "Fastboot Mode!!!" at the top... I've tried flashing twrp via fastboot but not getting anything.. I need a copy of the stock firmware with the boot system and recovery image in it but I'm having a hard time finding it.

I too had this issue. Tried lot of key combinations. Didn't work. My solution was to connect to PC and run
fastboot continue
Then it booted normally. Everything stock.
Hope this helps.

Phones boots into fastboot mode in two situations
1. Pressing vol up and power button simultaneously for rebooting
2. Your phone doesn't have recovery AND any OS installed
I guess your vol up button is constantly in pressed state.
Second situation cannot occur unless you wipe your system and recovery manually. So you are in the first situation
Your phone's vol up button is constantly in pressed state or electrically shorted may be due to water entering the case
Solution: You will have to open your phone's case and clean the area near the volume button. I guess you had opened the case/body and didn't fit it properly.

Phones boots into fastboot mode in two situations
1. Pressing vol up and power button simultaneously for rebooting
2. Your phone doesn't have recovery AND any OS installed
I guess your vol up button is constantly in pressed state.

No, it wasn't stock and I dont know what happened.. I was running the latest CM13 and rebooted this morning and it freezes up with the ASUS logo and saying "Fastboot Mode!!!" at the top... I've tried flashing twrp via fastboot but not getting anything.. I need a copy of the stock firmware with the boot system and recovery image in it but I'm having a hard time finding it.

Hello,
I have a similar problem. My phone is turned off and on the fastboot mode screen. Normal keys with volume keys, recovery mode, open, restart, even if I try to reboot on this screen opens. I tried to connect and format the computer, but I do not install all the drivers and files, but computers do not see my phone. Can you find me a solution?
