Got an LG 540. Was on 2.3 CM7. Used KDZ to downgrade to stock 2.1, but forgot to wipe cache, user data etc. Now phone is in bootloop and sticks on Android logo.
Only thing I can do is enter Download Mode. From there I can reflash a ROM but whatever ROM I flash it always sticks at the Android logo. Can't access recovery mode to wipe cache etc. Am now on 2.1 rom with fastboot but of course that doesn't help because it doesn't boot up.
Any way of getting my phone to work? Advice extremely appreciated.
well if you can enter fastboot mode you shoud just flash any 2.3 rom
can you get it into fastboot mode ?
if yes you can wipe it via PC.
If not you have to install 2.1 via download mode

A) I CANNOT get into fasboot mode.
B) I have tried flashing 2.1 and 1.6 via download mode (several different roms) but they all just bootloop and get stuck on the Android logo!

Thanks to those who helped, I really appreciate it. I just used my phone warranty to get it fixed (restoring the old boot and recovery image file first). The downside was that I waited to months for 2 months before I can get my hands back on it... . Thank you again very much
can someone tell me what can i do?? i by mistakely formatted /boot. my phone when switched on gives a blue screen. please someone help.
In Blue screen,connect your phone to PC and wait 1 minute. A storage will show if you was in B518 bootloader. If the storage shows,please report here

I also had the same issue like you did.
I re-wrote everything into a FAQ. IF there's a problem anywhere, just reply in your thread. If its solved then the walkthrough is useful. If it doesn't get solved we'll just add your issue into the list and troubleshoot until it works.

wait. wait. wait.(on the screen)
1. 1/2 updating
2. 2/2 updating
3. big tick
4. restarting.
then it should restart. again, and again, and again. and it will continue to bootloop until it actually boots up successfully for the first time. Please remove battery, plug in usb cable then only perform the upgrade (YES, WITHOUT THE BATTERY!)
Tell me if it works this way.
Or, is the problem that is something like this:
1. Huawei logo shows
2. Huawei logo with some firework animation, then slows down, then complete freeze, then again reboot? and same thing happen?
erm, add on: i forgot.
Let's assume you have done all of the above, but the ROM again crashes spectacularly on its own... try doing this.
1. Remove battery
2. plug in usb cable.
3. press power ON and volume up button
it should be no more blue screen but a *<3E>* recovery.

i had cwm before but once i formatted boot and did the steps said by baidiyee it got replaced by default huawei recovery.....and ya my phone is not detected by my pc in that pink screen.
Right, stay calm, this is easy to fix. Im not in pc so you need to do all work. Turn your phone in punkscreen mod after right click on my computer and click in tje second option (i dont remember the name :-s manage I think). On that window click on manage devience. Now on the line apears outher deviences look for android devience or huawei, right click and click update driver (on the first option)
I think after that you are ready to install the new recovery
I will fo rest for now I will wait a few mins for your reply and I will go sleep I'm tired with you don't fix your problem I promise you, tomorow I will help you
Hey Guys,
My Phone is completely stock and i have not installed any firmware but last night my Phone suddenly entered a boot loop which woke me up.
At that moment i just pulled the battery. But this morning my Phone wouldn`t start anymore, it just shows the logo
What i tried:
Boot into recovery: No go, it just displays the blue text booting into recovery
Normaal boot: No go, just shows the samsung logo.
Tried emergengy recovery via samsung kies tool: It ends succesfully with the same result, no boot
What else can i try without voiding warranty?
I want to try anything i can before sending it back to the store because that will take a few weeks before i have a phone again

Well this is my first post here.I flashed cm 14.1 on my devices with gapps through twrp.I managed to get to recovery with the adb drivers (as I mentioned I have a broken button so pressing Volume Down+Power+Home won't work).Everything was ok but due to the critical bugs of this rom (was still in development) I decided to downgrade to cm 13 which had less bugs.So I tried getting into recovery but everytime I gave the command in it would reboot to the system (not even in stock recovery).So I decided to flash the stock rom with odin and then try entering recovery mode.After flashing I actually realised that I f*cked up cuz I couldn't wipe the system data/davik cache,due to the fact that my home button is broken and so i cant access my stock recovery.Now my device is in bootloop...I already have a usb jig and it will just make it boot into download mode where i cant really do much.Any help would be appreciated.

Please help ASAP. I tried to install lineage os with MindGapps. After I flashed lineageos with twrp, I rebooted it and now it doesnt turn on. I tried to go to download mode, but doesnt.
The phone doesnt turn on. When I press and hold power button + volume down button for 7 seconds, samsung+knox logo appears and then 'phone bootloader unlocked' warning appears for few seconds.
An hour ago, somehow I managed to open its download mode. To test how it got opened, I restarted my device, but unfortunately, I couldnt go back to download mode. Is there any way to solve this problem? I want to go back to download mode

I first flashed twrp-black or something and it didn't work properly so I installed twrp-official downloaded from website. But then, after installing the official one, the recovery got corrupted. I couldn't boot into downloadmode, but luckily, it was just some key combination that was wrong, so, with a right key combination. I booted into download mode and reinstalled the initial firmware.

Yes, it just looks like it is bricked but it is not yet completely bricked.
The solution was simple.
First, completely power off device (don't restart, just turn off). After that, by certain keys combination, go to download mode.
It seems it doesn't work while restarting but works if it is completely turned off.(At least in my case it had been so)

I do know how to enter in download mode, but even when I upload the TWRP again and start over the process it get into the same black screen. I was wondering if Samsung Knox is blocking this action.
I have a one A20(SM-A205F).And I when installing the rom with odin in device, I unplugged the device cable on pc. Since that time device no reaction.PC, seen one second device's processor name. Can I bring the device back to life ?
