G2 wont boot after hard reset, won't enter TWRP

Hi,
I`m ashamed to admit it, but i think i might have bricked my phone.
Long story short, i flashed TWRP 2.7.0.0, entered it, and did a hard reset, the one you have to type yes to confirm.
Then thinking i get a clean slate (stupid me) i rebooted, and now after the t-mobile logo there is NOTHING. just a green/blue flashing led.
I tried holding power+volume - but the phone is on, and i cannot turn it off. So i held both buttons till it reset and then after i saw the logo released and held again. Then i get a blinking red light.
I must have somehow deleted everything the phone contains?! even twrp? How is that possible, and why would it be an option in twrp?
Any help greatly appreciated!

Normally you should be able to switch the phone of completely by pressing only the power button till it reboots, but then don't release the power button for another let's say 5 seconds. After this your phone will be off completely and you can press power + volume down till the LG logo appears, then release very shortly and press again till it asks for factory reset. Press the power button till it says factory reset processing and it will boot into twrp. Normally you cannot whipe twrp with twrp [emoji6]

When you can enter twrp you can sideload a Rom from your pc or install via otg

pffff, that was the trick.. managed to boot into twrp and now sideloading a rom.
thanks!

[Q] My LG G2 is is bricked with no download mode and cant get to recovery!

Lg G2 AT&T, The power button and volume down button does not work, when i try to get into download mode it goes to "[2130] Fastboot mode started" . I flashed the wrong rom for my device, usually i can go to recovery but for some reason this time it wont let me. At this point i'm pretty hopeless, I have looked on Google for solutions but you either need recovery or download mode. Please help

Have you tried entering recovery by turning off the phone...pressing power and vol. down...then, while still holding the vol. down, release and press again the power button once the LG logo appears...then release the vol. down button once it asks if u want to factory reset and pressed the power button three times to attempt to enter recovery?

Read this entire post and follow VERY carefully if your symptoms sound the same (two different sets of symptoms with different solutions). I was able to bring my phone back without recovery, download mode, etc. However, I did not have the fastboot error. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2681089

Alright so none of it was working. Linux would not read my phone. I traded in my phone and got a Nexus 6 instead. Thank you for your help!

Force Z1 into Fastboot Mode?

I have a soft bricked Z1. Recovery doesn't work. System doesn't work. Now I cannot find any way to force it into fastboot mode to flash a new, working recovery. Any tips?

power off
than press and hold vol+ and vol-
connect y phone to pc .

Thanks and I tried that, but I can't power it off. It's stuck in a boot loop and when Iong-press the power button, it just restarts

Press and hold until it go black , after 1 reboot .

So I followed these steps:
1) Long-press the power button. Phone restarts.
2) While restart, hold +vol and -vol.
3) Immediately after restart, plugin USB cable to computer.
That didn't help. Did I miss anything?

No . than take off the cover and unplug buttery .

Not sure that's the way –*is there an easy way to remove the cover for the Z1?

Ok, I found a solution and am incredibly grateful to everyone who helped. See http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/...zuk-is-bricked-without-salvation/page__st__20

Okay guys so I had the exact same problem just hours ago.
I accidentally flashed a kernel in recovery partition (Ik lol xD)
So here's what i did.
I searched around a lot and didn't find an exact answer. Then i came across something.
If you can, remove the back cover and disconnect the battery and then connect it again.(Look it up on Youtube)
If you can't do so, wait for the battery to fully discharge.
Then, press the vol+ and vol- together and wait for 2-3 secs and then connect your USB cable.
Don't press the power button or you'll just end up in a bootloop.
My phone directly went into fastboot mode.
Hope I Helped.

hold voulme + button and power button , and then continuously press volume - button 10-15 times! it will boot twrp ! i was facing the same issue ! This worked for me!

Let your phone to discharge to 0% then it would automatically power off. Then press and hold volume up button and connect to pc. And you r there in fastboot.

How to unlock bootloader if phone won't start up.

My phone is bricked and I was thinking about flashing it via adb fastboot, but I cant since my bootloader is locked, I tried to get the code but it is asking me for info which I can only get with phone turned on, is there anything I can do?
I got IMEI only, but I also need Product Model, Product Serial number, Product ID. (I can access those only in settings and in dial pad if I am not wrong).

See the back of phone, what type of model is? VNS-???

:crying::crying:

Try this: conect the phone to charger or USB, hold power + vol Up and there you will join to erecovery and choose shutdown, if this not appear try without charger.

i have mate 10 lite same problem,bootloader is locked so can i use dload method,and where to get the stock firmware

I have executed these commands and after from this moment, the screen of my device is black and which key or combinations of keys I press nothing works..
Code:
fastboot flash preloader preloader_begonia.bin
fastboot flash lk lk.img
fastboot flash lk2 lk.img
Disconnected the cable, connected the cable, holding the keys for a longer period, holding them for a short period. Only power key, only volume up/down, combining power with volume. Nothing works. When connecting it to the computer, I do see device manager constantly refreshing. But both fastboot and adb are not finding any devices.
When holding the power button for more then 10 seconds, I do feel a small vibe but thats all. Nothing further happens, also not when connecting it to the PC or disconnecting it from the PC.
Anyone any idea what I could to to fix this?

Mi A1 bricked and stuck in EDL black screen mode with white blinking led

Hi all!
First, english is not fluent for me, so excuse me for grammatical/temporal mistakes in my words.
It is now 12 days I am with my A1 phone bricked. It's bricked because I try to relock my phone with TWRP installed for making an OTA update.... I shouldn't, I know that now. My phone didn't wanted to boot, only on fastboot mode. But I couldn't flash anything because my bootloader seems to be locked now.
I disable the driver enforcement signature, installed the qualcomm drivers, open my phone and use the tespoints method. And my phone boot and this EDL mode 9008, and miflash tool saw it on COMxx and I was able to flash the fastboot july release. I was so happy! :laugh: But, then, the phone now stay in black screen mode :crying: If I plug an USB cable for charge or on PC, the white led blink 3 times. I tried to push the power button during a few minutes, I tried to push power and volume up, power with volume down, power with volume up and down. I tried to reflash 3 times in miflash, everytimes it's a success flash, but I'm still stuck on that black screen mode. I don't know how to exit or if my phone is dead. I tried several USB port and cable too, that doesn't change anything.
Does anyone have any idea how i can exit this annoying black screen blinking white led mode? Or my phone is definitly dead? I searched but I didn't find a solution that works for my phone.

About 10 s . Try to push volume down and power button together and keep untill restart to fastboot
If doesn't work it can mean that power button has broken when you was opening the phone .

Well, I don't think it's the power button broken because if I plug the phone for charging, the led blink. If I disconnected the phone from charge and push the power button for 10s or more, nothing happen. If I put the phone and charge, start to push the power button then unplug the charge cable with power button still pushing it blinks 3 times after unplugged, then nothing. It's a small difference, but still a little reaction so I don't think the power button is the problem, but I'm not sure of that

When you connect phone with pc check what recognize in device manager . You can be in qdlooader 9008 or in diagnostic e900 . Always check what is in device manager after connect phone with pc . You will be know in which state is your phone . I don't know if your phone is in edl mode .

try holding on the power button and volume UP (not down) buttons for 10 secs and it should restart, I got into the same problem as u and that is what fixed it for me
if that doesnt work here is a link to a post with a guy that has the same problem: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/help/black-screen-xiaomi-mi-a1-reboot-power-t3728497

If I connect the phone to the computer, it shows nothing. I have to bridge the tespoints to make it appears, and then it appears in Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader9008 (COM10). And then I can flash with miflash and miflash tells me that it's a success.

I have exactly the same problem. Looking for a solution for weeks now. Tried everything that is on the net but still black screen

Sorry to read that but I think our phones are dead honestly. I don't see what to try to make it rise from the shadows of this black screen At least, I learn how to go in EDL mode and never relock bootloader with custom recovery. It's an expensive lesson but...
Thanks to you guys for answering and helping me
