Grand Prime G530FZ HARD BRICK - Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Soft Bricked Help!

Trying to fix a friends Vibrant...
He was running jk6 software when the phone bricked itself in his pocket (?).
Now, the only thing we can do is access download mode by holding down the power button.
If I run Odin, and try to start up the phone into download mode, none of the COM Ports detect the phone, even though he is in download mode. Conventional methods don't work (Starting up ODIN, Plug in USB, hold down volume buttons). Only way I access download mode is by holding the power button down.
Any Help?
Try switching to a different USB port.

You need to make sure the computer has the usb drivers installed. Simple plug and play won't work. Its good you can get into download mode. Look in the bible sticky and download and install the usb drivers. Also if its windows vista or 7, when you open odin don't double click it. Right click and run as administrator. Also, make sure you open odin first before you connect the phone to the computer. Good luck.

Drivers have already been installed.
I can access download mode perfectly using my Vibrant and ODIN recognizes it, but when i plug my friends Vibrant in, thats when the problems happen.
For the record, when I plug my friends Vibrant into the USB port..a message pops up saying that one of the usb devices attached has malfunctioned (Code 43). I'm thinking this is directly related to ODIN not recognizing it (although it recognizes mine)
If you can reach download mode fear not its not an issue with the phone its definitely a problem with the drivers or maybe even try a different usb cable.
Yea, but I can only reach download mode. Phone will not boot into recovery, or even start up, just download mode lol. And i dont think its the USB, seeing as how i can plug in my other Vibrant and odin detects it immediately (on the same computer).

Well if the very same usb cable and port recognizes your phone (I'm assuming you both have the same exact phones) and odin recognizes your phone and not his, then his usb port on his phone must be where the problem lies... Try looking it, or even opening your phone and cleaning his usb port or something. Or try a different computer. if you can get into download mode don't worry, you'll find a way to fix your phone.
Still having the same problems. Tried a different USB cable, different computer running Odin...no luck. Only my computer detects that the phone even exists by shooting me an error saying that the device has malfunctioned. Phone just stays in download mode...Odin doesnt detect it. I've tried different methods to have ODIN detect it and still nothing.
Had to go through this too, but didn't have another phone in download mode to test against.
Win7 x64, tried a bunch of different drivers, but in the end was running the ones that come with Samsung Kies. In my case it ended up working without the original samsung cable (just a generic one), and with a USB port hanging right off my motherboard at the back of my tower. I have two USB ports on the front of my tower and they always errored, no matter what combinations I tried (including the same cable and driver). But when I switched to a port at the back, I got past the malfunctioning USB device error. Also, it seemed like Odin likes to be running when the phone boots into download mode. This took hours but phone runs perfectly now.

Please Help !!

This is what exactly happens to me:
I'm able to get into download mode but the computer doesn't recognize it at all.. I've tried all ports and 3 different USB cords. I have no recovery so download mode is my only option. When I attempt to boot into recovery, I get a "[Phone]...!...[Computer]" logo.
When connecting my lg g2 to pc nothing happends my pc doesn't recognize my phone neither

[Q] I'm SO LOST PLEASE HELP!

I own an LG G2, i recently got this phone yesterday from a person on craiglist. Don't worry i didn't pay him i gave him my older phone i dont use anymore. SO This phone is practically stuck in Firmware Update (As i read that post) , i spent about a day and half figuring it out and what happens is that.
I CAN get into recovery its TWRP v2.7.0.0 by Turning off the phone first and then Holding Vol UP, Power, Vol Down at the same time until the LG Logo comes up and then i am still holding them down, and it says Recovery Mode please wait and bam TWRP.
But heres the problem i can't mount my OTG and i can't ADB Sideload. So what do i do from here?? this guy rooted this phone and soft bricked it i think? and he wiped the phone but i also did when i had the chance and wiped it completly via recovery.
The only way i got into "Download Mode" / "Firmware Update" was to take the back cover off and unscrew a few screws on the side and unclip the battery for a few seconds and then plugged it back in and then I held the VOl UP button and plugged my USB into the phone and the other end is in my PC. My phone says "Download Mode please wait" and then prompted with the Firmware Update screen. BUT my pc doesnt detect the phone whatso ever and i've already installed drivers and etc from this forum ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 ) its the 2015 method that i downloaded.
so what do i have to do, i havent tried using different usb cables, the port seems fine to be plugged in since in TWRP it says 84+ so i meant its charging right? help me out guys idk what else to do or flash or anything.

I think the methods leave out that you need to change your phone to com port 41 on device manager > ports in order to be detected. Then you need to unplug it and reconnect to computer when the program shows waiting for device, with the phone in download mode already.
Also, to get to recovery you hold vol down and power, when the LG logo comes up release power and hold it again until the reset screen comes up.
To get to download mode you turn the phone off then hold up while plugging the USB cord in with it connected to pc... This launches download mode.

Well you see man , I cant change anything in Device Manager since my phone isn't being detected. It didn't install drivers fully fully since my phone isnt recognized. Even in TWRP or "Download Mode/ Firmware Update" Nothing happens no drivers installing or anything even but it does boot it up to that point....and its just normal boot up i see the LG logo and my led goes from green to blueish in a smooth transition and it doesnt stop until i turn it off. The method i got into recovery is holding all those buttons down its not a problem for me to get into it. I also have another problem it doesn't seem to want to mount my usb otg by samsung.
what do i do
So i tried the otg route but I can't mount it. I have everything connected and once I go into recovery to mount usb-otg, nothing happens.
I just need some way to get a ROM.zip in my phone
Computer does not recognize my phone.
Stuck at LG logo unless I enter recovery.
Sideload doesnt work.
OTG doesnt work.
I've tried at least 4 different guides with no luck.
Why don't you manually install drivers from online?
ive tried

ive tried that already and it doesnt list anything from the LG folder.
I realized the phone will say start the adb sideload feature. so, when i put the "abd sideload file.zip" command on my pc i just wait a few minutes and it says daemon not running on port 5037 and then start successfuly and then error :device not found.
it can seem to reognize my device wether its in recovery, or download mode or fastboot mode.
Try again in other pc that has never been conected to an LG Phone before. It can perfectly be a conflict with drivers installed in the OS.
I've tried man
AFter i cleaned the usb port in one of the chats or forums, i waited a day ovbiously without turning on the phone and cleaned the usb port with alchohal and a q tip and i plugged my phone into my computer and my PC detected something but it only says "Unknown Device" everytime no matter what pc i use it says that. nothing else. but before that none of my pcs would detect theirs a phone plugged in at all.

No there is no problem with your USB cord or port. You need to do following steps.

My friend tried to root his moto g4. Now his phone got stuck. When he starts his phone it enters the fastboot mode and when he tries to connect it with pc it says usb not recongized.

He should unlock bootloader before root. Yes there is solution. You must install all need drivers. Then try computer see your phone as qualcomm driver. If it is not recognized, try soft mode or safe mode or something in your computer and then try after restart, try many times. After seen as qualcomm driver you must run flashbat or flashbank bat file via administrator maybe or not for write bootloader and then type run commands in fastboot via computer. Files is next thread: search google - guide how to unbrick noto g4 plus. Desktop in one folder must be all files - adb and fastboot or something whats name, flashbank.bat file, stock rom files. I had same problem and solved for me but bootloader was unlocked. Main is that your phone must seen as qualcomm driver, first time mine was usb not recognized and then changed computer soft or safe or something different mode on or off

Phone not recognized in Fastboot / Download

Three days ago, my phone went off by itself and I had a hard time starting again, it was just loading the bootanimation, I tried to reinstall the ROM, but it did not go into TWRP, although the message Recovery appears on the screen, I insisted and after several attempts, I got into the recovery, formatted everything and I installed the AICP ROM again, and I had to restart,my phone freezes in the LeEco bootloader, then again I insisted until the ROM finally started, but soon realized that it was taking too long to start (30 minutes waiting and nothing).
So I rebooted again, and from then on, I can not go into any mode anymore, trying to access the TWRP, the phone only stays on the Recovery screen until reboot after 2 minutes, when letting the phone try to start the ROM, it only stays on the LeEco screen and restart after 2 minutes, when entering Fastboot, it enters the screen in Fastboot mode, but is not recognized by the computer, not even as unknown device, the same for Download mode.
Is there anything I can try?
Doesn't seem like a a fried motherboard. In my experience, If you fried the CPU, you would still be able to access Fastboot, if you fried the GPU part of the chip, or if the LCD has failed you would feel vibrations..
Do you thin it is possible that you accidentally put the phone into EDL mode? It can sometimes be hard to get out of, and it will give you similar issues.
To leave EDL press and hold volume down and power for 1 minute or longer.
Try this
Install the All in One tool and use it to update your android and fastboot drivers. Afterwards see if the computer recognises the phone port connection by going to Control Panel>System> Device Manager* ( Even though, you may not see the drive, you will maybe still see unknown device or te port)
Maybe a Brick?
If it does not see the phone or show a unknown USB device with port 9008
Try placing the phone into EDL mode by pressing and holding the Vol Up (+) and Vol Down (-) together while simultaneously connecting the phone by USB cable to the computer. Do you see the port or phone now? If you see port 9008 you possibly are bricked, follow the steps on my unbricking thread., if you can not get back to TWRP, or fastboot,and the phone keeps a charge. Then I would think that you are definitely bricked.
Other possible issues
The issue could be the battery. Have you tried using other USB C Cables? If you can use a different usb cable let it charge for a couple of hours then see if you can get into TWRP again . If you can enter fastboot mode try reflashing TWRP, you can use the All in One tool for this.

Thanks for answering. I've tried everything.
But I can not see the smartphone when connected. USB drivers are properly installed (I used to recover other LeEco x651, x526 and x520 devices)
I left it restarting for more than hours holding the power button and volume down, no results.
The device does not appear in the Windows device manager in any way, not even as Unknown or 9008 port.
I tried several usb cables.
There is no communication with TWRP or ROM installed and neither with the computer, even though I enter into fastboot / 9008 mode. Only LeEco / recovery logo and Fastboot screen.
I think my main memory is damaged or something.

Well that sucks, if you feel like sending to the phone to China for repair, you can find several shops that are offering to repair any damaged Leeco for $10 and an average cost of $30 for resoldering. On the TaoBao website, use Chrome for translation. Some of their ads mention overseas repair
If it's memory it would be an easy fix for them.
If you don't want to fix it, I highly recommend the Mi8 if it's within your budget, its a perfect phone and you can find them for close to $300. My brother has a Redmi note 6 Pro which is also really nice. He paid $190.
Good Luck.
