Flashing a ROM effectively writes over /system anyway, you need to do some reading to understand what you are actually doing. But basically you need to boot into bootloader and use fastboot not adb. Many tutorials exist so a search on xda will be all you need to so the rest.

now my device isnt charging and not booting up!!! am thinking of replacing it. is it psbl? coz i unlocked my bootloader but i have a 30 day replacement guarantee and my device isnt turning on now?? itz been 2 days since i bought it.

I would ask you to get it service centre to flash the system again, and PAY them the normal service charge. You can ask the service centre guy to install a new motherboard , because i think that will come with Memory and OS pre-installed.
I am not expert on this matters, suggest you to search deeply on XDA or wait for an Expert to answer otherwise; i have listed the options available to you.
You could also try leaving it on charger for a day to see if charging starts.
Since your whole memory is wiped clean, it basically a Bricked device.

[Q] One Week trying to save a P920 and Failed [ Help Appreciated ]

Hello Everyone,
So I've been dealing with a P920 for the last 7 days trying to Flash it and it's not working.
1- Device is booting to Android but all applications are crashing ( unexpected error com.x.x ) force close.
2- I tried LG recover mode, phone flashed but once successful and rebooted, same error upon loading desktop.
3- Tried rooting the phone with SuperOneClick2.3 ; Rooting successful, upon reboot, rooting is lost
4- Downloaded KDZ original firmware V21A Europe based from lg-firmware site and used offline installation ( shttps + modified host file etc..) . Installation successful and flashing is OK; rebooting = same error on startup.
5- Downloaded firmware V10B and flashed it successfully. Rebooted, phone version is still showing V21A !
6- Rooted phone + installed CWM -> successful, rebooted, it's gone.
Now this is the first time since 10 years that I get into such thing and the device is getting me on my nerves.
Any idea or advice is much appreciated!
Well
Looks like a hardware issue. ROM, RAM, Internal memory. U need to find a way to delete partitions and re do them somehow. Have no idea if there is a software for that. I had it for my SGS. It should help.
Just repartition whole internal memory.
UPDATE:
Here you go ! Good Luck ! and tell us did it worked for you
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1509195
Remember not to switch internet with external memory or u will brick it totally!

Great, I will give it a try thanks.
Do you think I will have to delete all partitions and create them again ? or I should only specific ones ?

Have no idea. Try to make some research I don't want to give you wrong answer. Should be only one where rom data is, but I'm not sure.

Hello MinedSafe; As I mentioned earlier, whenever I root the device and reboot, it's not rooted anymore. It is not possible to install CWM ( changes are not applied )
I have managed to root the device and tried the parted command, I get command not found.
I have noticed that once I get into the stock recover and wipe everything, I do not get the first welcome screen to setup the device, it's booting with the same error.
I have started to lose hope. Device is no longer under warranty
Have you try to recover it from LG mobile support tools ?

It looks like the partitions are damaged or eprom/rom ( no commands ) memory is gone. So the only way is to send this to LG service where they can upgrade/rapair with their 'hardware' tools. If you try on you own you might get to a stage where even they wont be able to fix it.
What kind of software you where putting in to it ? Froyo or GB ?

Another person, so its now more likely then when upgrading the partition table was screwed up. It could be a mistake in addressing the memory when flashing.

Yep, sorry to say that. Depends on where you live, but the cost of repair should not be to high.

Boot into recovery. Then go to Mounts and Storage, and mount USB storage. Connect your phone to your computer and your SDcard contents should show.
Transfer the latest CM10 nightly to your SDcard. Then flash it and hopefully all should be fine.

Recheck/redo step 1. Check all details carefully and follow exactly. Uninstall all things LG before beginning to avoid driver/software conflicts. Turn off antivirus to avoid deletion of required system files or .dll. You must be logged onto pc as administrator for some steps.

Not needed to reflash whole ROM. Just flash the bootloader via flashtool to the recovery partition and you will forceboot your phone to Android.
In fastboot do: "fastboot flash recovery bootloader.bin"

For omap4430 and LG drivers, do part 1 here (you should be logged onto your pc as administrator if you are not already).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195753
Be sure to uninstall all LG stuff and reboot your computer before beginning, and temporarily disable antivirus software when extracting files.
After that, your pc will be set up to use Fastboot to install a bootloader, reflash the phone, or whatever you wish (flashing firmware will write bootloader, but it will also write everything else).

You missed something then.
Sent from my LG-P925g using xda app-developers app
Just try to relax and take it slow, one little bit at a time, and don't get mad. That will just make things worse like wiping your system for no reason. There is no rush; zipping through the details will probably result in something important missed or misunderstood. Driver install has always been the same, even when all we had was Fastboot and ICS ported from the Korean device. It has worked for many thousands of people before you and you have done nothing to your phone, that I have read, that could cause damage that cannot be fixed (hey, maybe I missed something, but as near as I see, it can be restored). Unless you have hardware failure, which sounds unlikely at this point, all I can say is try to relax and start over. The directions have been tested and refined many times over and are just about as complete and detailed as you will find.
And you can thank LG for driver install being as fiddly as it is for this particular device :banghead:

damn you don't need lg service for something so simple... if all else failed just flash a full .kdz rom, your phone will return to 100% stock and will boot fine [i use this for .kdz flashing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22189294 ]. Or like lzzar said try the recovery bootloop breaker too:

I don't think it's possible.Even if you able to recover your data anyhow,it will be corrupted,so no use.
Bcoz some said that when u delete file ,its just get flagged and it still possible to recover it. K then,thx for ur reply btw.
Hans Brown said:
You forgot to leave your phone model and Android version my friends. OnePlus one with Android 6.0?
You have to ROOT your phone first before you use some tool to recover the lost data.
So I think this ROOT tutorial is useful for you: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...oader-install-custom-recovery-and-root.64487/
After you ROOT your phone, try this tool to recover data from the wiped internal storage.
PS: the ROOT function is included in the tool's data recovery module, you can try the tool directly before ROOT the phone yourself.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When you unlock the bootloader all data gets wiped for security reasons .... So what do you think there is left to recover? Data will be corrupted even more.
Anyway there are tools but data is corrupted and not fully usable. So RIP.
PS
The OP said he did it from twrp which means the bootloader is already unlocked.

OnePlus 6 Stuck At "Qualcomm Crashdump" Screen All A Sudden | Data Retrieval Critical

Hi good people at XDA. This is my first post on this website and I am absolutely hoping to receive help from you all to find a way out of the depressing and extremely anxious situation I'm in.
I was using my OP6 normally today and while I was typing something on Telegram the phone suddenly froze and after I re-booted it, it took me to the Qualcomm Crashdump screen.
My OP6 isn't tampered in any way (no bootloader unlocked, no TWRP recovery installed, nothing rooted).
At the moment, I can enter the fastboot mode while pressing volume up and power button.
The crucial thing is the data which I MUST RETRIEVE, can't afford to lose it.
Could y'all please suggest a way where the data can be retrieved or the phone can be revived without data loss?
I did read the forums on MSMDownload Tool but I believe it wipes off the phone, right?
PLEASE HELP!
If ADB ( read: USB Debugging ) got enabled on phone - what is the door to Android OS - then try this to pull out user-data stored on phone
Code:
adb devices
mkdir "C:\RECOVERED_DATA"
adb pull /sdcard C:\RECOVERED_DATA

Thanks @jwoegerbauer for the prompt response. I can surely try that. Considering that I'm fairly a noob, could you please share in a bit detail, the steps I need to take before executing those commands?
Also, since there's a tiny chance that USB Debugging may not have been enabled, what's the alternative that I consider?
Thanks!
Since I must retrieve the data in internal SD, can this help me enter the OS?:
1. Extracting the boot.img of the latest version that's currency installed on my OP6, from payload.bin
2. Testing if this boot.img can revive me into the OS by fastboot boot boot.img.
Also, one pressing doubt: does a fastboot flash boot boot.img command erase internal SD contents??
Please help!

No man. Still looking for some solutions. Read umpteen threads only to see that MSMDownload Tool erases data because it first unlocks bootloader (which mandatorily wipes data), flashes system files and then relocks it.
But I'm pretty sure, there exists some way out to flash a OP 6 with locked bootloader but retaining userdata partition intact.
Hoping to receive some solution here from this community of Android geeks.

Hi. So, I gave my phone to a phone repair specialist. Apparently he changed some IC, which made the phone to boot up to the system. which is what allowed me to take the data backup of the phone.

Bro can i have your number please i m stuck with the same problem since last year but not got the solution to boot up my phone normally its always showing crash dump mode. I tried everything but nothing worked for me.
like many even i too ugraged my op6 to oo11.1.1.1, rooted was running well for a week till i encountred face crash dump mode error
Stupid thing i did was instead of flashing fastboot oos 10.3.8 i tried to flash msm 10.3.8 which didnt solve crash dum and also locked my BL.
now nonof the msm could solve crash dump nor we can unlock BL bz we cant toggle OEM in Dev option,
i discussed with @L0ND0NB0Y regarding this, his suggestion would be to take a backup of oos10.3.8 config partation of a working rom, then use edl to flash it on affected op6, by that way we can unlock bootloader and flash fastboot rom.
we need to fide a working op6 and back config which @L0ND0NB0Y can guide us. if it works he ll creat a post to solve crashbump and BL locked issue.
if this wont work, we may need to wait for msm oos11 file.
update : managed to solve crash dump by flashing msm international 5.1.5 but ended up getting black screen with white notification light, if my op6 had BL unlocked all i had to do is to boot stock/twrp recovery and factory wipe.
