[Q] Bricked after installing 5.0.1

Hey guys,
I tried to install 5.0.1 with the OTA I received. After that, the device went into a bootloop.
To fix it I installed the 5.0.0 factory image from Google via Fastboot (worked with flash-all.bat).
But now when it tries to boot I get the google screen and a minute later an Android warning symbol, no boot.
Also tried the 5.0.1 factory image, no success.
Bootloader is unlocked, no recovery used
Any ideas on that?

I also installed the 5.0.1 OTA update and I get the same picture when I turn on my device. I don't have any idea what to do. Please help. I cant get into TWRP recovery either.

You can than reboot and wait for boot animation to finish (it wont take long this time) and you will boot.
If this doesnt work you can flash a stock factory image easily from fastboot again.

Thanks for the help! Flashed the stock another time and let it settle on the charger for a night, Now it's misteriously booting again

thanks!

Just to throw in my little bit of experience with this. I did the same thing, applied the OTA update and ended up stuck at the same "no command" window each time I power cycle it. I did notice something though each time I went into the boot loader it said the boot option was "recovery". It dawned on me that the thing was somehow stuck with the flag that it needed to boot into recovery mode and not do a normal boot.
So, all I did was power cycle it, let it come up to the "no command" screen and then didn't touch it... fight the panicy urge to do something and just let it sit for a minute or 2. It will reboot on it's own and start normally. Now, to be fair the update won't be installed but at least you're not stuck anymore and haven't lost your data.
I will probably download the factory 5.0.1 image and flash it in order to get it upgraded. I am a little concerned because I started from a wiped device that i had flashed stock 5.0 onto. Hopefully this doesn't become a regular thing with OTA updates.

Exactly the same happened to me with 5.0.2 last night. Stock, unrooted but unlocked N10.
Was almost ready to factory reset it or flash the factory image but as it sat next to me as I was surfing for solutions it just rebooted into system and has been working fine again.
Was fine again this morning but letting me know the update was waiting to be installed again

This is not working for me. It just boots after a minute, then goes to the same screen, over and over.
If I hold down all of the buttons to get into the bootloader, then select Recovery, I just end back up at the "No Command" screen. I had assumed that was the recovery, but pressing power then a volume key did not make the menu appear.
Update: I flashed the 4.4.4 recovery image and now I got the recovery menu to appear. But clicking Reboot System just causes me to come back to No Command. I wiped cache. Same crap.
Update 2: I flashed system, boot, and cache from 4.4.4 and I'm back in business! All of my data is still there.
Update 3: I'm an asshole. I forgot that I rooted my Nexus 10. I really thought that I hadn't done that, but I found a TWRP folder on the SD card as I'm backing up stuff. Damn, I'm dumb. Now that I'm back to stock, I'll see if the OTA works.
Update 4: OTA worked fine after flashing stock. Go figure.

Don't know what to do :(

Hi All,
Little background, I don't own OnePlus 2; I got one from a friend of mine and he already soft brick it, phone turns on and goes to stock recovery with these options (Install form SD, Install form USB, Wipe data and cache, Advanced, Reboot) so i only have these options to work with. Also I can boot into fastboot as well. Unfortunately bootloader is locked and I am unable to unlock it (restricted bla bla bla). So all I am looking for is to restore it back to stock state, just want this dam thing to boot up again. Any help would be nice. I am actively reading up threads on xda and other sites and there is a lot of information. Thanks in advance

If I were you
First try wiping data and cache from stock recovery and try to boot.
If don't work since you have stock recovery you can flash signed full zip, I suggest to grab 2.2.x from next link (don't use beta 3.0)

If still don't work as last resource try this guide

It supposed to be official service images I guess no need to have bootloader unlooked.

I tried again and bam process went through, i got this green message in Chinese and phone automatically boots into recovery mode.
Any thoughts on what should be my next step ?
Edit: the exit button is not active so i was thinking the process is still ongoing, giving another 10 minutes before proceeding forward.

Ok lots of things happened in past few hours.
1. Was able to Unbrick/Recover OnePlus 2 Back to stock 100% via (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/guide-unbrick-recover-oneplus-2-to-t3269543)
2. was able to flash from usb via stock recovery Oxygen OS 2.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/rom-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-roms-ota-t3209863).
3. Phone was stuck on reboot to recovery so read some ware the use command "fastboot continue" and it worked. was able to boot into android and was able to setup, no problem but the phone was in safe mode.
4. Rebooted the device and back to stock recover. Now need help to get to the rom and bypass the recovery.
Edit: I am able to enter rom every time with "fastboot continue" command. the android boots in safe mode and i am unable to boot normally or even without command.

I think i have narrowed down the issue to broken volume down button. When you think about it, it makes sense. If you turn on the device and press and hole volume down u go to recovery which is exactly what my phone is doing. And when i use fastboot continue command it boots the OS in safe mode which is done when you press and hold volume down while booting. Now I am planning to get the stuck volume down button fixed. If was able to unlock the bootloader i might be able to flash twrp and boot into system from there but alas no luck there.

I remember Exodus developer raja-m had issues with his volume buttons, send it to repair I think you should try that

As suspected the stuck volum down button was the culprit, got it fixed and phone is working like it never had any issue. Pesky little bugger

[HELPP] H918 is stuck at a bootloop and I've tried everything!!

I've searched far and wide for an answer to my problem and I've returned with nothing. It's been almost 24 hours without my phone and I think I'm losing it. I've downloaded and tried LGUP (alongside Uppercut), LG FlashTool 2014, LG Bridge, LG DLLs, etc and nothing has worked to flash my phone to stock with the KDZ. The closest I've gotten it to work is with LGUP but stupid me, I managed to edit the buildprop before it went self destruct and changed the device identifier to a Google Pixel XL and LGUP refuses to cooperate. Any help is appreciated. Please. :good:
I've managed to get into fastboot. I'm sure I can do something from here but idk what to put. Any help is appreciated once again

My guess is that you're rooted considering you've edited the build.prop? Why not enter recovery and flash a stock rom?

Can you not get into TWRP?? I believe its the same way as everyone else..\
Hold the volume down button and the power button and as soon as you see the LG logo left go of the power button and press it again. This manual step is a pain in the arse, but it will get you there eventually. Since youre rooted, you also get the "This device is corrupted screen" yes? The LG logo popup you are looking for is right before that.
What I do for easy and fast access is this. I keep the back cover off and hold the volume down button for ease. I hold the power button, let go, and press it again and ususally that first try doesnt work. As soon as I see the corrupt screen I take the battery out very quickly and put it back in and repeat the process. After a few tries the LG logo will hang before the corrupt screen and that gives you the time you need to let go of the power button and then hold it again until the factory reset screen comes up. Just hit yes twice... It will go into TWRP.

Well with the corrupt screen, it seems that the time frame that would allow you into Recover/TWRP is shorted. So pulling the battery after trying usually gave me more than enough time to boot into it. Probably not the best for the phone though xD

x722 revive

Hello guys, i am the newest member of your commuity.
Recently i bought a leeco le pro 3 elite (x722). Now it has a problem. I was taking a snapshot of the screen in the morning and in notification are it kept showing saving screenshot (phone continued to work just ok, i an 4g video call through messenger, surfing the web, playing some games all day). Even after trying to close forcibly the notification about the save it wouldn't dissapear. In the evening i tried to do a restart and the phone shutted down and now can't turn it on. Only i can get is this when i plug it in computer:

If i put it to charge , the phone is getting charged i think, because it's starting to gain a little bit temperature (normal, like everytime when was charging) , but no blinking light or anything else. i tried a lot of combination to start up: Vol up+ power, vol down+ power, all three pressed, power button for 3 minutes, power + vol down for 2 minutes etc...
I don't get nothing not a vibration or even a blink - 0 reaction.
Can you give me an advice how to bring it back to life?

Need more information.
Sorry to hear about this issue.
Does it have stock software or did you attempt to install a custom Rom?
Can you boot into Recovery? (Stock or TWRP)
Can you boot to fastboot mode?
If it has stock and you just bought it, you need to immediately return it for a exchange, it sounds like its bricked. Hopefully you can get to recovery or fastboot. There is no fix for a bricked X722. If the bootloader is unlocked and you can get to fastboot there is hope.
Answering the questions above will help determine whether or not there is any solution for your X722

no i never tried to unlock or to see status of bootloader.
i can't get anything on the screen and on computer i only get de Qualcomm qLoader driver (status). no matter what buttons i try combine when trying to power on the device i get nothing not a light or a vibration. Even the led on the upper side isn't lightning up, even if if put it to charge.

Does it have stock software?
Did you attempt installing a custom ROM, or manually update stock EUI?
If it still has the stock software and you never flashed custom software nor tried to install 5.8.26s, incorrectly then Your battery is probably dead. Possibly caused by a faulty USB C cable. You can order a battery for about $20.
Have you tried charging with another cable?
On the other hand if you attempted flashing software without unlocking the bootloader, the phone is hard bricked and there is no resolution at this moment.

No i didn't try to update or to install custom roms or enter some special mods. i just used the phone to make 4g call and some small games. I didn't even tried to put some hacked games or soft.
My phone was on a repairing center so they tried another cable, but i still get only this status Qloader 8006.

Since the battery is obviously working, somehow you phone is bricked. Maybe a shop rom was installed by the vendor?
You need to file a claim for a warranty exchange from whoever you bought the phone from., we do not have the needed Qfil software for the Leeco X722, and there is no way to repair without it. However in a worst case scenario, you can replace the motherboard.

X727 LePro 3 stuck in Recovery Boot Mode. Not Rooted, have access to Fastboot

Hi all,
I was wondering what anyone can tell me about the problem I've got with my Le Eco Le Pro 3 phone. So, I had access to the phone before I jammed both the volume up and down buttons, which caused me to go into fastboot mode. Initially I would get the trusty ole platform tools and just "fastboot continue" the phone into the regular boot. It worked the first time, but I guess the volume down button was still jammed and I got myself into a little bit of a loop. Now, instead of going into fastboot mode, I go straight into Recovery Mode, which I've had to translate because it was in Chinese. The two options I have in recovery mode are to "clear data and do a factory reset" or "install an update.zip". Now, I instead opted to exit out of Recovery mode by pressing the bottom left option, but it just boots back into Recovery mode. I haven't rooted the phone and I have no usb debugging enabled because the issue sort of popped up outta nowhere. Initially, I probably should have just backed up all the data on the device and not had to go through any troubles, but that's why I'm making this post. I would also like to further note that I do have a lockscreen code, so if that "encrypts" the data (making it harder to get to, I guess) is my only guess.
I read on another thread where I can essentially unlock the bootloader through fastboot mode and then be able to enable USB debugging that way and maybe manually remove the files from my phone and just factory reset it to see if I can get the phone running. I also looked into just straight up factory resetting it, but I would probably have to root it before I do so that I can run a third party tool to get the data after the reset. I'm also quite new to this whole issue but I'm stressed and straight out of options.
I would also like to note that there was a blue light when I had tried starting the phone on the upper right hand corner where it would indicate the battery level. The whole recovery boot loop could have been caused by a battery malfunction, but I do get a response from the device in fastboot mode (so I think the phone is not entirely dead). It also charged up to 100% without issue.
Basically, I just wanted to see what anybody had to say about my problem and if you all have any advice (like how do I backup a phone that is not rooted).
Many thanks in advance.
I've also posted an image with the recovery mode

Did you try to fastboot boot TWRP?
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6010 using Tapatalk

The phone doesn't have TWRP and has stock ROM. Installing TWRP would require me to OEM unlock it and then flash the current bootloader (thus replacing the original recovery boot). Unless I'm completely wrong and there is a way to install TWRP without losing the data on the phone, then I would love to be enlightened because I'm at my wits end.
I tried charging it to 100% and restarting it but it just leads me to the recovery screen. I'm not entirely sure if the phone volume buttons are still jammed, because that could still be the case.

Fix the buttons the phone should boot
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6010 using Tapatalk

Alrighty, so a little update. I got the phone's buttons removed but it still boots into the recovery mode. The metal button on the side was removed but the button module remains. It's just not jammed any longer, which now begs the question: Why is it still booting in Recovery mode? I am currently charging it to 100% to see maybe it could be bugged with the battery, but that is the update so far. Button module is no longer jammed but we are still booting into the Recovery mode.
Any suggestions would definitely help in my 2 month long battle with this phone.
Btw, I also replaced the screen because the repairman who removed the buttons broke the original one and the new screen responds to all touch.
