I tried searching but im still having trouble....
I have the Mytouch 3G and ive been running Cyanogen since 4.1. I did the upgrade to 4.2.1 with no problems. Today the browser randomly started force closing so I rebooted and now its stuck in a loop. The mytouch splash screen comes up for about 10 seconds and then reboots. It won't let me get into recovery mode but I can get into fastboot mode.
I downloaded the SDK and installed the driver so that I could use fastboot but when I click the fastboot.exe it comes up for a split second and then disappears.
Any help would be appreciated, or any other solutions than what im trying to do.thanks
EDIT: I'm dumb. im using command prompt and trying to boot the cm recovery image now. I used "fastboot boot cm-recovery-1.4.img" and it seems to be stuck on "downloading 'boot.img'"
anyone? please?
Fastboot isn't working at all, maybe because I didn't having debugging enabled before? I tried following the steps at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547133 but i can't make a gold card following that tutorial and it didnt work with just a regular SD card
Can someone please help? Am I posting in the wrong section?
what happens if you turn it off and then boot into recovery?
Do you have apps2sd? swap?
BTW: to use fastboot you dont click it you use it as a line command... eg. fastboot boot amon1.2.2.img
I forgot to mention that I'm not able to boot into recovery, but I am able to boot into fastboot mode. When I use fastboot to try and load something to the phone, I get a "remote: failed" message.
I don't have any special partitions on my sd, and I hadn't changed anything on the phone besides upgrading to 4.2.1 the day before.
Bump. Anyone else?
Please help, I need proffessional help.
Android Phone: ASUS Zenfone 2 Laser 5.0 (ROOTED)
Android Firmware: 5.0.2 Lollipop
Aim: To enter into Fastboot mode and Recovery Mode without problems
Situation: Recently installed TWRP Recovery in-app and through software, but when I try to enter in Fastboot Mode (HOLD POWER & VOLUMEUP) or even Recovery Mode (HOLD POWER & VOLUMEDOWN), I just end up in a hanged out ASUS Logo. I can't do anything except pulling out the battery myself and putting it back then booting the device through power button to boot it normally. I don't know if it's the problem with the model, or the phone's system itself, or it's just a bug, or a problem when I rooted my device through ADB.
(Note: When I rooted the device, I wasn't even able to see the blue "FASTBOOT MODE" when I tried it, I only saw the ASUS logo as well.)
For anyone who has any idea on what's going on with my device, please reply and help me. I really want to have the benefits of a rooted phone completly and I'm a new root user so I need assistance.
For anyone who has an idea on what I've done or on what should I do, please help me. Someone told me that I flashed the recovery and locked the bootloader, so it got damaged. If so, would Unlocking the Bootloader (from Wiki.CyanogenMod's Site) help my case?

I think I have "access" to TWRP recovery. However, I can only access it through booting it up from ADB. I used the command "adb reboot bootloader" to boot it to fastboot mode, however only the ASUS screen appears but I treated it as the fastboot mode itself. Then I checked if it was really on fastboot mode through "fastboot devices" and it showed my serial number. I can only enter into TWRP using "fastboot boot twrp.img" . I don't know if I already installed it because although I opened it, I can't do it from the phone (POWER+VOLUMEDOWN)
Ok now boot twrp and then flashamodified zip or cm13 and your phone should eork you dhould to have unlockrd bootloader
Hi to all, i'd re-open this 3d for the same problem. After months I'm trying to re-sleep my ZE500KL. It was in "can't load invalid boot image" loop. I tried to force recovery mode and (wrongly) force to update from update.zip the stock fw stored in the uSD.
Since this time I can't enter in recovery mode more but fastboot only. The problem is that, in spite of the USB drivers are installed, fastboot does not recognize any connected device.
I've run Win 10 pro with a zenbook ux333fn laptop and I remembered android 6 on the phone, the last time I saw it alive.
I've tried also to install twrp 3.1, with no positive results.
Anyone can suggest me any solving way?
Thanks to all

QFIL or AFT can be the solution.
I have a similar problem, a hard bricked Z00ED (ZE500KL) not able to get into fastboot or recovery.
after reading some thread here an there. that are Processor / Chipset specific flash tools that help flash bootloaders and repartition hard bricked device.
For mobiles with MediaTec devices, there is a tool called SP Flash Tool. I wasted a whole day with it. then understood that Z00ED (ZE500KL) has a Qualcomm Processor MSM8916
Therefore we need a Qualcomm Flasher here (QFIL )
But nos I am stuck with getting firmware for ZE500KL that can be used by QFIL tool, It should have a firehouse*.mbr file that is the programmer (dependent on CPU of the phone) and a rawprogram*.hex file that I don't know where to get from.
Thanks... It seems a bit less wild, but in any case no solving, yet

So my VS995 (Verizon LG V20) is stuck in a fastboot loop. I can't do anything outside of fastboot. I got to after step 3 in the Dirty Santa root method and could not get the phone to boot into TWRP recovery. I kept getting an ADB device offline error and could not get ADB to see my device to initiate the "ADB reboot recovery command".
In a stupid and drunk state I did a "fastboot erase system" and thats what locked me into the fastboot loop.
Any help is appreciated as my V20 is now unusable :crying:.
I guess I would need a stock boot image, and stock recovery to get back to where I started. If anyone could point me in the right direction and help me get my phone back (and possibly rooted), I would be more than happy to donate via PayPal .
P.S. The LGUP software used in the how to restore v20 thread linked-> ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/restore-v20-to-100-stock-bricked-devices-t3524903) does not recognize the model of device giving the error ("you have to select a known model, please")

I was able to flash the appropriate stock .kdz file (THANKS dwertz!) but my phone immediately boots right back into FastBoot Mode
Do I need a stock Boot.img file?
I can communicated with the device through the PC's terminal using fastboot. Are there any fastboot commands I could try to boot into the stock firmware I just flashed? Are there any partitions I need to erase or format?
Any help is appreciated!

to my understanding, the kdz file contains the stock boot.img and stock system.img, everything to bring the device completely back to stock .
In fastboot to boot to the system the command is "fastboot reboot"

After flashing the stock .kdz firmware for the VS995 fastboot is no longer working and giving me the error FAILED (remote: unknown command).
My phone can not get past FastBoot! :crying: I think I really bricked this thing now. My bootloader is locked, fastboot commands don't work at all.
The only thing that does work is download mode (holding volume up and plugging phone in) and I am able to flash the vs995 firmware from the lg website but i STILL can't boot into anything but fastboot.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can try to fix this thing. I think i'm doomed. I may try to flash the stock us996 firmware because at this point it seems like it wont get any worse.
Any help would be appreciated!

did you ever get any help? I would go directly to the dirty santa thread and make your issue known. I'm not sure how much help I could give you but if no one else is willing to help I can try.

Did you flash the kdz using Uppercut?
imucarmen - I can't post in the dirty santa thread because I am a new member to XDA (been coming here for years just never made an account )
bond32 - Yes I was able to flash the .kdz using Uppercut+LGUP but my problem is not fixed. My phone still boots right to FastBoot Mode in the "Locked State" to where I can't issue any commands or alter any partitions.
This makes no sense to me if LGUP is able to 100% flash the stock firmware, WHY CAN'T I GET OUT OF FASTBOOT! Lol
Does anyone have any ideas as to what I could try to unbrick this thing?
I know it's a different issue from the one that I had, but the LG Support Tool method that KedarWolf posted might help solve this issue too.

Splinter 77 - Thank you for the suggestion. I have been trying to get this tool to work for a couple hours and everytime it hangs on the Downloading Firmware section. No matter what I try I can't get it to download the firmware....
Does anyone have some ideas I can try? I'm up for anything at this point!

Did you try pulling the battery, put the battery back in.
Hold the volume down and power button at same time. When the lg logo shows up let go of the power button but continue to hold the volume down and press the power button again. It will bring you to a screen tgat has 2 questions. Answer yes to both of them. Then reboot. I believe that resets the way the phone boots almost like resetting a cmos

ahh i got it man! @Kevin_xail
i dont know if this will help seince u relocked, but do the factory reset dance
hold the vol down and power and put in battery as soon as its on click the power button and re hold it. it will get to recovery, it took me hours but its there.
I had tried that a few times after reading about it but I'll try now for an extended period of time and see if I can activate it. I'll report back with what happens, thanks for the tip dwertz and Team DevDigitel
Well I got in to the recovery menu and reset to factory settings and wipe cache (the only two options) but I still am booting right into FastBoot and can't escape!
I even flashed the stock .kdz again after the factory reset and wiping cache and I'm still stuck in FastBoot
Any other suggestions to try?

When you have a unlocked boot loader and you do a factory reset, I believe it wipes the OS from the phone giving you no OS. If you can get back to recovery, flash this rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/vs995-vzw-nrd90m-modded-notsostock-rom-t3525864
That will at least get you booted so you can flash the kdz.
I can't get into any kind of recovery to flash a rom though

Same problem here, did you ever fix it?
hi everyone.
a friend of mine was trying to root his huawei but now it cant boot anymore.
he followed a wrong guide for the Y5 II and flashed a custom recovery (bootloader unlocked) TWRP.
now the phone its on bootloop with the stock OS. i think that its due to the wrong recovery flashed on the partition.
so im requesting help for this phone.
is there a solution for this?
can anyone bring me the stock firmware for this model?
i need it as update.app to extract the stock recovery, not as ota update (dload/update.zip) cuz i need to flash it using fastboot. the phone just can use fastboot cuz recovery partition is corrupted and normal boot doesnt work (bootloop).
plz someone can help me?
i already googled long for a solution but i can figure out how to make it work.
the phone comes with android 5.1 lollipop and is from chile.
pd: the phone can only enter fastboot by pressing vol+ and power. if i try to turn it on normally it bootloops. when on fastboot menu, if i select recovery, it bootloops. if i select fastboot, it works using adb from pc (i mean, i can download data to it, it doesnt boot via fastboot option).
if i just had the original recovery.img maybe i can flash it and make it boot normally again.

I don't know much about Huawei, but if firmware is available you should be able to flash back to stock. Personally, I would try to find the right TWRP and flash it...then it will boot and you can root of you still desire.
I'm not sure if this is the right one, but if bootloader is unlocked it won't hurt to try. https://twrp.me/devices/huaweiy300.html

Well.. it's no use.. he had to buy a new phone.
So im having a problem with my OnePlus 6t Mclaren Edition. I have followed a guide i found on google from droid views but am having a problem when it comes to loading the temp TWRP image through fastboot.
I have unlocked the bootloader on the phone using Fastboot oem unlock and it worked just fine. but now when i boot the phone into fastboot mode, and type fastboot boot twrp-x3.2.3xxxxxxx.img the phone screen flashes and all thats on the screen is the oneplus logo and nothing else appears. ive let it sit but nothing... i have to hold the power and volume up keys to get the phone to restart and then it boots fine. i just cant get the temp TWRP img to load so i can sideload the zip file to the phone. any ideas?
You need twrp3.4.0 by maurofrino available in another thread
