(Needed) ASUS Zenfone Max Plus M1 ( ZB570TL ) Signed Firmware - Asus ZenFone Max M1 Questions & Answers

Needing a Signed Firmware for my ASUS that has the partitionings as i cant boot into the Android System and im stuck at POWERED BY ANDROID screen when powered on and it doesnt load the ASUS or ZenfoneUI screen it just stays at Powered By Android screen and after 30 secs it reboots back to that screen no matter how many different firmwares i flash with SP Flash Tool...
I CANT -
1.Turn on USB debugging in settings as i cant get the system to boot full up after flashing.
2. Cant boot into Recovery Mode to flash update.zip its like Recovery Mode is gone even after flashing
3. Cant Unlock Bootloader, in ADB and Fastboot i can flash .img but at the end of flashing it errors abd says remote failed and then error locked, im sure thats because the bootloader is locked or usb debugging hasnt been enabled in developer settings.
I CAN -
1. Power + Vol+ to get into the menu that has RECOVERY MODE, FASTBOOT MODE, NORMAL MODE, if i select Recovery Mode it just reboots the device back to Powered by Android screen and reboots after 30 secs.
2. I can use adb devices but no adb shell, fastboot works but limited no flashing or unlock bootloader until i figure a way to enable usb debugging in the settings.
3. I can use SP Flashtool and flash all kinds of firmware for the device WW, CSC, but after flash i get the green checkmark that it flashed propperly but when i boot it im vack to powered by android screen with reboot after 30 secs, no recovery mode still just limited fastboot mode.
Im told that maybe the partitions were messed up and it needs to be re-partitioned by usingba signed firmware, or flashing the EMMC using UFI program or Android Toolkit but i cant find any of the .XML file they use or the .mbd flash files i can only find what asus has are the ones for Sp Flashtool and SdCard but cant get into recovery to flash from SdCard an Update.zip....
Any help or if someone has a Signed backup that i could flash using SP Flashtool as that seems to be the only way i can get to flash, i also was told it has to be signed firmware that has the partition files as the device wont let any firmware stick to it unless its signed with keys in the firmware...
Id like to keep trying as i had it given to me and i buy new screen, back cover, vol buttons, battery then after i whiped all the together and turned it on this is whst im left with ( A Pain in the Azz ) device of wonders, all that money spent into it i keep on keeping on Joe Dirt Style with it until something gives hopefully ..
Im going to try using OllyDbg and try finding if theres anything in ADB.exe or Fastboot.exe that i can put a True or False for has the device enabled USB Debugging already or if they asking for Signed Keys to tell it No keys needed or Bootloader is unlocked or any checks if allowed to unlock bootloader if its locked, but this is just dreaming at this point of hackin a ADB or FASTBOOT exe .... anyone know of any good decompiler to modify exe files let me know i could give a try as all i know of that get into them to change things are Reflector and OllyDbg but they kinda hard to use.... anyways the journey continues any help or firmware signed or instructions on partition the main system blocks ill try anything at this point... Thankz Ya'll.....

Malfunction " x " appears on the screen !! help me what is going on
Haha... you'll need more information than that if you want real help.
Based on the limited information though I suspect your phone is stuck in a bootloop. I'd hook it up to the PC via USB and check the logcat. Probably something screwed up.. Maybe time to restore your latest backup.
Did you flash any ROM if so, did you clean your Dalvic+REgular Cache
If you don't have an Recovery:
- Connect your Micro SD on PC
- Download and insert on SD the stock ROM of your Nexus One
- Power ON your Nexus with Volume Down Pressed.
- Autmotically Restore Nexus (You should say Yes xD)
At this time, you decide if you want to be root and install other ROM
you better just list your setup info before doing anything
locked/unlocked bootloader
rooted/unrooted
which recovery are you using
what rom are you running stock/custom
what were you doing when this happened
a couple safe things you can do in meantime is to pull battery and reinsert and power on
if it goes back to X, pull battery and DO NOT power on. Hold down the pwr button and trackball at same time and see if you can get into recovery
the third is hold down trackball/vol-/power at same time while X is on screen and see if you can get to recovery that way
if you can't get to recovery you will need to fastboot new recovery, assuming you are unlocked
once you get into recovery do a nandroid if you are rooted
and copy it to pc as a secondary backup
it is possible you may need to try the passimg method in wiki
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Nexus_One/Guides_&_Tutorials#Unroot_.2F_Restore_your_Nexus
also to do fastboot commands you need usb debugging selected on phone--hope it is
Hello, i have a similar problem with my n1
the phone starts and just shows the nexus X - (waited for 15 min. nothing happend)
i can go to the bootloader / fastboot menu with PWR + (Vol-) but i can not go to the recovery mode. -> the phone reboots and get stuck at the X
the phone is rooted
blackrose / hboot 7.35.5017
radio 5.12.00.08
recovery was ext4
i had a german ics miui rom installed and tryed to install the latest ics miui us rom after it didn't booted the miui us rom i turned the phone off and tryed a few hours later to turn it on to reflash the german ics miui rom.
1.)
i tryed to install a new recovery image ->
recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-passion &
recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1
(still get stuck at the X if i try to go to recovery mode)
2.)
i tryed this one with the passimg.zip but nothing happens if i put in the sd card :/
(with nothing i mean the green text show that the sd card is checking for PASSDIAG.zip and PASSIMG.zip but dosn't found it)
i also tryed:
3.)
erased boot
flash boot from passimg.zip (PASSIMG_Passion_Google_WWE_2.18.1700.1_FRG83_release_signed)
4.)
erased cache
erased userdata
started again with 1.)
5.)
got frustrated and erased system -.-
any ideas?
study it ,thank you
study it ,thank you
Hmm, sorry if its obvious but i have no idea what it could be or what i have to search to find the solution. Would be nice if you could give me a hint. Of course im not asking for a step by step solution. Thank you.
Send from my awesome SE K800i
not sure why you are flashing boot images
do you have a nandroid--copy your sdcard with the nandroid to pc--all of sdcard
are you flashing thru fastboot in command window
did you read my post above on getting to the fastboot screen--can you do that--the one with the 3 androids
pwr/vol-/trackball same time, may take 20-30 seconds
if you can get there, put your recovery image in your fastboot folder on pc, normally tools--assuming you have sdk installed, your phone must have usb debugging checked--I hope
open a command window and change directory to the tools folder or wherever the fastboot.exe file is. Something like:
cd/
cd/ android/android-sdk-windows/tools for me
then on same line type
fastboot devices (it should show your phone H#)
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (or the exact name of the recovery image, checked by right clicking on the img file in your tools folder and looking under properties)
I would use amonra you listed above and check the md5 if possible
hopefully the recovery will flash
if not you can go to the wiki link i posted above and try passimg metthod from there, use correct one. don't add the .zip. Windows will had it automatically.
a side note, DON"T flash different roms without wiping all including System 3 times before flashing--prevents a lot of problems

Can you provide a tad more details please? What happened to cause this? Did you try to flash anything or modify any system apps? What system version are you on?

The phone is rooted and have custom boot. I dont know the phone history waths hapens before - i think there is kit kat android with root and there was try to instal an online update. The problem is when the phone i power up its show the screen WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED and the power of button doesnt power off the phone (i must wait to unchraging the phone and when i plug the charger on, after 3 min the warning screen show automatically) thats why i can not get into recovery mode because the combination power+sound up+sound down doesnt work. Is any option to connect the phone to pc when ist shows te warning screen - does the computer recognised the phone ?
Hold power and volume down for 10 seconds when you see the screen the screen flicker and shut off immediately hold the volume up and down that should take you to the boot menu from there you can go into fast boot and flash stock... Read through the thread I linked it has pretty much everything you need to know and the files to do it with...

Try to flash a boot logo or something simple...Here are some boot logos a successful flash of something may stop you from booting up to fast boot mode

Doogee X5 Max Pro Root Recovery OTA

******************Root Recovery Doogee X5 max pro*******************
Your waiting Time IS Now Finished Here is Complete Guide to Root Doogee X5 Max Pro install twrp And More,
Hit :good:
ADB & Fastboot
Before doing most things mentioned below you will need "adb" and "fastboot" installed. Two of your options are to install the Android SDK Tools or the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tool. If you are somewhat new to this I highly recommend the second one. Go here, download the latest version (1.3.1 as of this writing), and install it. When setup is complete you should have an icon for the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tool.
Note: I highly recommend you add "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot" to your PATH variable in Windows. This way you can open a Command Prompt anywhere and use adb or fastboot.
1) Unlock Bootloader
Power on the phone and skip through all of the setup options
Go to Settings -> About device
Tap Build number five times to enable Developer options
Go to Settings -> Developer options
Enable OEM unlocking
Enable USB debugging
Plug the phone in to your PC and authorize it
Open a Command Prompt
Type adb reboot-bootloader
The phone should reboot and in a very tiny font at the bottom you should see => FASTBOOT mode
Type fastboot devices to verify that your PC sees it correctly
Type fastboot oem unlock
Press Volume Up to say Yes and wait for this to finish
Type fastboot getvar all and look for (bootloader) unlocked: yes
Type fastboot reboot
You should see your phone reboot a couple times as it erases the phone
Install twrp-
Power on the phone
You can configure your phone now or just skip through all of the setup options and do that later
Go to Settings -> About device
Tap Build number five times to enable Developer options
Go to Settings -> Developer options
Enable OEM unlocking
Enable USB debugging
Plug the phone in to your PC and authorize it
Open a Command Prompt to wherever you extracted the .img file
Type adb reboot-bootloader
The phone should reboot and in a very tiny font at the bottom you should see => FASTBOOT mode
Type fastboot devices to verify that your PC sees it correctly, rename twrp to recovery.img
type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to flash recovery
Type fastboot reboot
Rooting-
Download BETA-SuperSU.zip and save it to the phone's internal memory or an inserted microSD card
Plug the phone in to your PC
Open a Command Prompt
Type adb reboot recovery
You should now be in twrp. Go to Install zip, find SuperSU.zip, and install it
When it finishes go to Go Back -> Reboot Phone -> No
Once the phone boots up launch SuperSU and configure it as you like
Other Solutions-
i have doogee x5 max-s (i geuss limited editon in algeria ) with mtk6735 . i do evrything and all steps but when i reboot to recovery mode i have ( no command ) in the screen .... how to fix that ? sorry for my ****ty english XD
I had the same Issue but i have found a solution!
After you have flashed the twrp recovery, dont reboot the phone! the "recovery.sh" will replace the twrp on every boot!
Just pull off the battery after flashing, disconnect usb and put the battery back in to the phone.
Now get in to the recovery by pressing volume up and power button together until the select bootmode menue appears.
select recovery with the volume up button and enter with the volume down button.
and now you should be in the twrp main menue.
i hope it works for you too!

It does not work from step 12, all the drives are correctly installed and windows recognizes the cell, the recovery image is in the internal memory and also in the sd but of the error "can not load Recovery.img". I tried all the tutorials on the net to do root and nothing worked.The flash does not recognize to pass the recovery also the installed drivers because windows recognizes the cell phone.

use sp flash tools to flash recovery, scatter also added with twrp
Flash does not pass the file in the download only option, the process does not start. I reinstalled ROM by firmware mode all ok, but the process of passing recovery on command 12 and 13 of the error message. I manually copied the recovery to the sd and internal memory but also from the error. Does not find the file speaks that it is not a command found.

Until today I could not do root on x5 max pro. In the method below even downloading the twrp when starting with the power + volume down button start with a menu in Chinese and if you start with volume up + power goes in the default recovery mode.
Same as Pitro1 I am on 16.01 update and I cannot install twrp no matter what I try.
I tried x32 and x64. I tried rebooting directly on recovery or first load system and then adb reboot recovery. I tried to format all first (now I lost my Imei and so on lol). I downgraded and updated again. Downgrading works only with 26.12 version. All others are giving me Colorado lines on the screen and nothing else...
OEM unlock, file transfer, adb, fastboot, drivers detection, are all working good. Only I cannot install twrp...
Also I cannot write nvram nor with SN Writer 2.1504 nor with Imei & SN Writer 1.7.2, MetaAP mode fails all the time...
I'm just about to send it back...

How old is your phone and what build version was it at before you started? Because this doesn't work on mine. Which of the "Android 6" ROMs did you flash to start with as I've tried flashing mine back to an earlier one in case it's something with the later stuff that my phone has come with but they either don't make a difference or they won't even boot.
I tried the method in the first post here and the phone wouldn't even boot (switch on and you get the Doogee logo in silver for a few seconds then it reboots and does the same again). I had to flash the stock ROM from NeedROM to get it working again.
I've tried flashing TWRPx32 and x64 available NeedROM both with SPFlash tools and with ADB. Generally flashing it with ADB from the command line leaves the phone in that boot-loop. If I flash it with SPFlash when you try to boot into Bootloader afterwards you get the Doogee logo in silver for a few seconds then it seems to reboot again on it's own and boot normally - you don't even get the menu to choose Fastboot, Recovery or Normal. From then on trying to boot to the Bootloader gives you the menu but choosing Recovery gives you the standard recovery.
It's almost as if something is overwriting the recovery partition with the original after I flash TWRP onto it.
Anyone got any suggestions about where I might be going wrong or a way around whatever additional security they might have put in there?
Hi. I have tried to root my x5 max pro with flash tools to load TWRP, but it always restarts normally and the TWRP does not come out. I found you and I started to try this method to load the TWRP. Does everything good, unload bootloader and load recovery, but loading the TWRP gives me error .:
Device unauthorized.
This adb's $ ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is nor set; Try adb kil-server if that seems wrong
what I do?
rooting X5 Max pro in Ubuntu 16.04
Hi all, this is my first china phone and I basically bought it only to experiment, I'm a linux power user but this is the first time I 'play' with an android OS.
thanks to multiple guides and posts on this and other forums I'm getting somewhere and learning a lot about how to manage an android OS, I'm sharing a bit of info I unovered about doing this under ubuntu but I'm also stuck and in need of guidance, please help me.
Linux specific issues:
I'm running ubuntu 16.04 LTS, installed fastboot and adb tools from ubuntu repos, with these tools and no other modification to my system I could follow the tutorial on how to unlock the OEM bootloader with adb and fastboot.
accordingly to this post about SP flash tool in linux you might need to blacklist a modem manager module in order for SP flash tool to connect to the phone, you also need to install usb development tools (package libusb-dev) and check through dmesg that your linux OS can actually properly read mediatek usb devices.
After following the above mentioned instructions (both the linux sp flash tool tutorial and the bootloader unlocking howto) I could get SP flash tool linux (multiple version) to see the phone after you connect it while SP flash is downloading the new recovery image and flash it with an ok message.
If you get stuck with a BROM error 1013 remember to start sp flash tool with root privileges.
Phone specific issues:
I can get SP flash tool to flash my phone recovery with an ok message confirmation but the phone keeps rebooting with doogee recovery and not twrp. I'm on the newest stock ROM update (20170116) as of current post date. I've been using 32 bit TWRP images from multiple sources and linux version 5.1620 of spflash tool from their website
so my questions are as following:
1) after reading other posts I think I might have to play with different versions of SP flash tool and TWRP until I get the right combination, I think I might be using 64bit spflash tool for linux to flash a 32bit rom or something like that, can anybody confirm precise version number of the stock rom, TWRP and SP flash tool that worked out for you?
2) should I try to install the whole stock ROM posted in this chinadevices thread before trying to flash only TWRP recovery? please also check the linked thread for multiple custom ROM being ported to this phone, please also note that the full stock rom this poster uploaded (it's in the "all firmware" link) contains another flashing tools with chinese instruction called MultiDownloadTool.
www.china-devices.com/forum/index.php?threads/doogee-x5-max-pro-mt6737-custom-roms.20527/
3) I don't have access to a windows installation right now, but I do have a Win10 VM under Vmware workstation 12 pro, so I could try windows version of sp flash tool, do you guys think that USB passthrough would work?

Same here. May a work around would be finding out the oem commands in fastboot. I have seen a tutorial to get them, but you have to be root: https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-discover-hidden-fastboot-commands/
I search a simple method
Why all so complicate? I am searching for a simple way to root.
For my old Doogee X5, I discovered just
update-ROOT-DOOGEE_X5.zip
Copy the zip to the micro-SD-card
Settings -> Phone info -> Update -> menu "update local" -> choose zip from micro-SD-card.
Start update.
That's all!
Now I search for such a simple solution for my new Doogee X5 MAX pro.
I do not want any methods with "volume down power", because my X5 MAX pro has the menus after "Volume down power" start in Chinese language.

Hi there,
I just tried the first file you posted, (twrp-x32-rom), and this one works for me after all previous attempts to boot up TWRP failed. Thanks for the link !
What I had tried before:
I have a relatively new X5 Max Pro, which I ordered a week ago. I updated the firmware to the newest version (20170116) using the OTA update function.
Then I tried to flash TWRP using the files from "needrom.com" which seem to have worked on older versions of the phone/firmware, but did not work for the newer versions.
I tried 32bit and 64bit TWRP versions and flashed them with SP flash tool, but when pressing Vol+/Power the phone would not boot into TWRP recovery. Insted, when selecting "Recovery" from the boot menu, the phone would show the Doogee logo in silver, then blink once, then boot up normally. When repeating this process, then phone boots into Stock recovery, indicating that the TWRP I flashed was replaced by stock recovery.
However, I just flashed the recovery.img from "TWRP LATEST" (the first file posted by Neaw) with SP flash tools and was finally able to boot into TWRP. I installed the superSU-zip 2.79 included in the link, and I am now rooted. Once again, thanks for posting this :good:

I decided to update my old oneplus 2 to lineageos 15.1 with, but when I tried to flash the file with TWRP, it shows an error. Since the TWRP version I was using was old, I decided to update it first. Keep in mind at this point i had completely wiped my device. So, I downloaded the "twrp-3.2.1-0-kenzo.img" file, as per a youtube video where the dude managed to flash the update successfully, and gave it a go. It showed up as successful. Then i shut the whole device off, and tried to boot back in to recovery to flash the ROM again, but the thing won't boot. It's stuck on this boot screen (with the oneplus logo and 'powered by android' at the bottom), and refuses to go further. I'm stuck in a situation with the phone having no OS, no recovery and the thing won't show up when I connect it to the pc either. Well, the pc makes the 'device connected' notification sound when I plug it in, but nothing shows up on the file explorer or the device manager.
That's my dilemma, please i need help!
Thanks in advance.

You downloaded the KENZO (this is not oneplus2! ) TWRP and flashed it on another phone (oneplus2), just normal that it doesn't work and your phone is messed up.
If you can enter fastboot (vol up and power button to boot) you can rescue your phone:
-enter fastboot (vol up + power, while phone is completely off, u can also hold it until you can see "fastboot" written on the screen)
-connect device to a computer with fastboot installed
-type "fastboot oem unlock" into a terminal/cmd window if there is no error, you are good to go, otherwise your bootloader relocked, use this thread to recover
-if your bootloader is still unlocked, download the ONEPLUS2 TWRP IMG, ALWAYS make sure to only flash the roms, kernels, recoveries or zips for YOUR phone otherwise you can really DESTROY your phone!
-now type into terminal/cmd: "fastboot flash recovery *drag the oneplus2 twrp image into terminal/cmd window* and hit enter
-use vol down + power to reboot phone into recovery and wipe all partitions
-Install a ONEPLUS2 ROM of your choice
If something is not clear, use google, because this is most likely basic stuff you have to know when flashing your phone
I can in fact go to fastboot mode by holding the power+volume up keys. When I the phone to my pc it does show a fastboot device (9597b869 fastboot). What do i do from here?

i tried to follow the guide. but the bootloader, as per you description is relocked. the download link for the driver you provided shows up as empty/no longer available. that's where i'm getting stuck.
P.S, i can enter fastboot mode on the phone via power+volume up.
thanks for the help so far, i can't seem to find much help other than from you so far
Oh, the link is dead, sry for that. try this one (GDrive links are up and working).

so i managed to get into qualcomm mode, updated the drivers, and ran "MSM8994DownloadTool.exe" in administrator mode. it went as it's outlined in your guide. however, at the end of that process, the phone got stuck in a bootloop (the oneplus logo flashes for a moment and restarts). and can't get into qualcomm mode now, since when i connect the usb to the pc while the phone off, it lights the display (to show that it's charging, i think). any way back from this?
(i can still get into fastboot mode)

Do you still have TWRP? If yes go to TWRP and shut down the phone there, afterwards you should be able to enter qualcomm mode again.
otherwise you have to try (i think 10s power button will shut the device completely down). You should be able to enter qualcomm mode if the device is fully shut off (your scenario sounds as if the device is not fully shut off when u connect it to the pc).
Just to go sure: You are absolutely sure to have a oneplus2, are you?

LG G4 H81520p bootloader unlocked, Download mode avaliable, cant flash anything

Hello everybody. Im asking for help and im pretty desperate for my issue.
I have LG G4 h815 20p which was rooted few years back. Then the phone died and got re-balled recently and it works now. But i can not access twrp by using Volume Down and Power buttons combination. I can go to Download mode where i can updated firmware using LG UP and it will be processed to the end and after the required reboot phone stays black and recognized only as qualcom device in device manager.
I can not use ADB as it will never show any devices under adb device neither fastboot devices. Drivers are installed. Tried bunch of different versions on both win10 and win7 but no luck. I also tried installing those on ubuntu, where the phone is seen as a device under lsusb but not under fastboot or adb.
I just want to get the phone up and running. NO matter if i unroot or keep it rooted. It wont be used as daily phone but im eager to fix it.
The phone lists bootloader unlocked on the top of the screen together with LG logo and then comes the android robot animation for 3-4 seconds then loops the same 2-3 times then goes black screen (shows as qualcom device in device manager).
Tried LG UP, LG flash tool neither helped. LG Flash tool wont even end as LG UP finishes but wont boot after the reboot when process is completed.
Any help please will be extremely highly appreciated. I am also willing to arrange team viewer if necessary for easiness.

Boot to fastboot and exec
fastboot format userdata
(will obviously erase the whole device including photos etc)
If that does not help you can use SALT to flash TWRP to the BOOT (!) partition. For that you must start SALT from the cli with --experimental argument. If you plan to use SALT I recommend using the latest mAid njghtly which has all already installed.
For flashing with SALT you also must do a custom backup of the sbl1 partition and place the twrp image in the same dir where the sbl1 backup is.

Hey, Thank you.
I found your stuff uploaded, but i really cant figure it out. Whenever i press Volume UP and Power button to keep them 6-7sec then plug usb cable, the phone misses the chance to go into download mode. So i have no opportunity to go into fastboot. But i can go in download mode but neither fastboot or salt finds the device.
Could you please provide some more info?

fastboot and download mode are complete different things. you cannot use fastboot commands in download mode.
you have to provide more info:
how do you run mAid? VirtualBox or from an USB stick (recommended)
share the debug log of SALT when your device is in download mode (Advanced menu -> debug log -> upload button -> share just the link)
boot your device in download mode and THEN start mAid first could also help

Hello again.
I figured mAid out. I run from live usb, and i can connect to phone and get the device information through Salt..
What i did:
- i use experimental flag with root privileges and device is read and comes info that my Laf fw does not support direct flashing. (i cant figure it out how this works),
- i made backup of sbl1 partition, downloaded twrp image twrp-3.3.1-PREVIEW-196_g4_MM.img, placed the twrp image in same folder where the backup of sbl1 is.
- Now i dont know how to flash the the twrp to the boot partition. I tried to find some guides but no luck. Yesterday for some reason i had Flash button in salt on the bottom, today it is not there. The way i start salt is by browsing inside /home/android/Desktop/LG directory and use sudo ./SALT.desktop --experimental command. I use the latest mAid from your file server 4.19.126-1-MANJARO - mAid_v2020-07-14_23-43_x86_64_forgetful.iso.
3 attachments are uploaded bellow. The debug log from salt was unable to upload and gave bunch of package errors, so it is attached bellow in a txt file as well.
The phone keeps stable connection in download mode.
Please advice. I am very grateful.

you start SALT in experimental mode as this in a terminal:
Code:
~/programs/SALT/salt --experimental
anyways the problem is that your LAF version is 100004 so flashing will likely not be possible.. You can try it anyways by using the above cmd which will bring up the flash buttons.
before doing that rename the twrp image to recovery.img to ease up things.
then you select flash (folder) and ensure that anything else then the recovery image is selected (e.g. do not flash sbl1 etc).
also ensure that the target partition is named "recovery" then choose flash.
as said it will likely not work though as your download mode (LAF) is too new though. you could downgrade with LGup to Lollipop which will allow flashing with SALT for sure.
but back to the initial description, you mentioned that:
[...] after the required reboot phone stays black and recognized only as qualcom device in device manager.
[...]The phone lists bootloader unlocked on the top of the screen together with LG logo and then comes the android robot animation for 3-4 seconds then loops the same 2-3 times then goes black screen (shows as qualcom device in device manager).
These indicates very very likely the beginning of the ILAPO. you can check my signature for some workarounds though there is no proper way to fix it other then by replacing the mainboard.
