Hello
I have a broken LG G2X and i'm trying to recover data from the phone. When I hook the phone to the labtop I get unrecognized device. When I check device manager I see unknown driver APX. I tried downloading the LG tool to provide the driver but no go. Any help would be greatly appreciated?

You cannot access data in APX mode. APX mode is a low level hardware flashing mode only. You need to connect it to the phone on in regular mode. If you cannot do that the data is lost.
The screen is completly broken and out the phone. Since i can get into apx mode do do you think it would be worth trying to fix the screen?

If you just turn it on and leave it a while can you plug it into USB and get the normal drivers to load? If not, probably not worth trying to fix it.
Can you fix the screen?
I know someone who can. All I would have to do is pay for parts. Do you think its worth it ?

I have a T-Mobile Nexus S that has a bootloop. Its my friends so I dont know what he did to it. I can get to the bootloader but when I connect it to my computer it won't recognize it. I thought of a driver problem but i can't get past the bootloop to enable usb debugging. It also won't show up in device manager. The phone's usb port works. It will still charge. I just need to get rid of the bootloop. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If it has a custom recovery, boot into it and wipe data/factory reset.
If it does not, flash a custom recovery. These forums are chockful on guides how to root, flash stuff and fix bootloops.
I looked up how to install recoveries but when i plug in my nexus to my computer it is not recognized. At the bottom of the bootloader screen it says "USB Control Init" and then "USB Control Init End". I do have the proper drivers installed. Is there a fix for this?
Are you sure that you have the correct drivers installed, though?
It's known that people who use Windows have a lot of success with the PDAnet drivers (you can search around here for those), rather then with the standard USB drivers the Google SDK provides.

Did you try to run "fastboot devices" in command prompt while it's at fastboot mode and plugged into the PC? What do you see as the result? The guides on XDA should help, but you may also head over to nexusshacks_dot_com for more references.

With pdanet it requires me to plug in my phone with usb debugging turned on to get the drivers with i cant do because of the bootloop. and when i go into command prompt it says "waiting for device" and won't recognize it. Thanks for the help
Please help me... i try to install other roms but after that i cant access recovery mode all i can do is to go to download mode.. the problem is my usb debug is turn off now my computer cant recognize my phone/usb driver... anyone here know how to fix my problem please help me:crying:
First, what phone, exactly from under the battery sticker.
Second, what did you do to boot loop it.
Third, you don't need USB Debug mode to fix it, you need Download mode, which if it boots even to loop, download mode will work.

my phone is samsung galaxy s 4g model: SGH-T959V
I install IceCreamSandwich Accidentally now my phone keep restarting
Yes i can go to download mode the problem is my computer always saying unknown drivers but i got all the drivers i need i read to the forums that when using odin and SDK something like that the phone should be on USB DEBUGGING MODE "ENABLE" so thats why I THINK that my computer cant recognize my phone... pls help me how to fix this thanks in advance
Was having a similar USB driver issue. What worked for me was re-starting the whole process on a different computer. Installed drivers via Samsung Kies mini and that did the trick for me.
Odin never cared if I was debugged on for me..
Odin and the one clicks, that's another story. They don't play nice together on same machine. I would need to revert drivers or completely uninstall & reinstall drivers when switching between. If you're getting Andy & shovel, this is fixable.
My best guess is to use heimdall with stock firmware as I always have an issue with already rooted stock.

Hi, I am facing the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S mobile. Please let me know if your problem has got resolved.
Thanks in advance !!!
Hi my phone is stuck in emergency mode. It's an LGp705g. I believe I could fix my phone if only my pc would recognize it. Every program i try to run to recover or reinstall the firmware on it, can never actually connect to my phone. So my question is, what do i have to do to fix the usb connection issue?
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys, hope someone can help me out here.
My buddy has a bricked TF101, I told him I'd take a look at it (I fixed my brothers a year ago, it was no big deal).
Anyway, I can't install the naked driver for APX access, the device ID shows up as all 000000. There's no recovery to read the stock images off the sdcard either.
Any ideas?

If it will not allow you to install the APX drivers, most likely it is an issue with either driver signature verification if using Windows 8, or a bad cable.
I had a bad cable after 1.5 years of global travel. The cable still charged with the wall wart, but would not work via USB for APX, ADB, MTP or PTP.
New cable fixed it up in no time.
Here is how to disable the driver signature verification if you are running windows 8: http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/

I hadn't thought of that, I'll borrow my brothers later on today and see if I can get APX going. I'm on Win7 and driver signatures are off. Thanks
I tried to access my phone's internal storage but the phone doesn't show in My Computer. The Portable Device in Device manager says MTP USB device and it has the yellow triangle on it. The Samsung driver is the Android Composite ADB Interface with no triangle. I have debugging on but the MTP device driver always fails whether debugging is on or not. I used Koush's drivers found here on XDA but same old thing. The Portable Device used to show up as A0001 and /or One but now it doesn't and I don't understand how that happened. Can someone enlighten me and perhaps solve this problem? It's been very frustrating as I just spent 13 hours trying to get my phone working (Thanks Heisenberg for fixing) and now another 6 trying to figure this out. Please HELP if you can. Thanks!

Even I had faced this problem on Windows 8. I had installed drivers 4-5 odd times. But later I just flashed CM11S zip via recovery and enabled USB Debugging Mode and it finally got recognized on my laptop.
I was facing many issues with all lollipop ROMs. Hence I reverted back and now everything is working fine.
I, too am using CM11s as Lollipop has too many bugs for me at this time. Maybe I'll try re-flashing CM and see what happens. Thanks for the reply
My question is: How can one flash from recovery when the file that needs to be flashed cannot be sent to the phone because it's not recognized by the computer?
Nevermind...I figured it out and flashed 11S successfully! Everything shows up now on computer. WOOT!
