Hi Guys, My both the volume keys does not work in my optimus one. Last time i did a factory reset by going to recovery directly from OS. But for some reason, after booting its full black and nothing works. Some error in OS maybe.
Now i need to flash a new ROM by going to either recovery and flashing or any other method like fastboot or whatever is possible. But the volume keys don't work to go to either one of them. Is there any other way? Pls help, i,m not able to use my device cos of this.

Install a quick reboot or any other application to reboot into recovery but you might need to flash a touch recovery also

SO i think I totally bricked my phone. Any input would be great. MMy phone boots up and is stuck on lg screen. I tried flash CWM and stock recovery but nothing. Any ideas or should i just send back and get a new one
I really mucked this one up
It's not a brick if it turns on! But I'm fairly new to this phone and I'm not familiar with it at all Normally I would suggest to fastboot flash the new OFFICIAL CWM recovery image, but I don't even know where to begin with fastboot on this phone

It would probably be a little helpful (if you want help) if you let everyone know what you were doing when you "bricked" your phone. That way people know where to start in assisting you.

I had a infinite loop problem on mine. I just restored to stock.
Turn phone off (pull battery if needed)
Turn on while holding volume down + power button

What happens when you try to boot into recovery mode?
OK here is what I did to brick my device.
I wanted to do a factory reset and I used clockwork recovery to do so.
Wat I didn't know what that Clockwork recovery was going to format my system.
I can only get into fast boot via vol up+vol+down+power
Cannot get back to stock recovery or CWM. Tried flashing via fastboot method
My phone just goes to LG screen no loading bar
Currently the only function is fastboot
Did you try formatting via Vol-Down + Power?

1) Fastboot flash the official CWM recovery image
2) download http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048274
3) put the NANDROID in the correct folder on your sdcard: /sdcard/_ExternalSD/clockworkmod/backup/
4) restore via recovery

I flashed official CWM recovery image numerous times via fastboot and phone just gets stuck at lg screen. Once again vol up+power and vol down+pwer does nothing
Is there another fastboot method or adb method to restore CWM?
did the same thing it bricked my phone does nothing else than start up then freezes. f-ING pissed
The best thing with Nvidia phones and tablets is that its barely impossible to brick your phone. If you think you bricked it - you just need NV flash and either the stock rom or stock recovery and you are back to normal
I have done that with my old G-tablet - it was a piece of cake to fix it.
is there an nv flash for mac?
thought i did the same thing!
if you can get it into format hit the home button. hopefully vol+down+power will get you there. pull your battery and you may just get lucky if done enough times? i would keep trying. good luck
I badly need your help.. I can't enter the recovery mode (RCK) of my tf300.. upon pressing the up button, it will send me to this screen where I can't do anything but to reset it back again.. I'm planning to flash SuperSU to root my device.. what does this pic mean and how can I solve this prob? thanks!
This is the Stock Recovery. You cant do anything there. You must be unlocked and then you must flash a custom Recovery first. I recommend TWRP 2.2, cause its the only one without bugs.
I have an at&t LG G2 D800 the android version is 4.2.2. my phone is ROOTED and I do have PHILZ Recovery. I was trying to do a hard reset or factory reset not sure what the difference is. what seemed to happen in the process is my phone was almost completely formatted and now i have access to only download mode and I can get into Philz Recover still. other then that when i boot my phone up it just gets stuck on LG boot up screen and my LED notification light blinks. need help please. cant seem to find solution or I just haven't looked in the right place yet. if anyone knows how to help or at least point me in the right direction. I give huge thanks in advance.
So you have a custom recovery installed. Good! Head over to your phones forum section and look for a stock ROM if you can find it.
If not then find an aftermarket one. Once you have found one. Download the needed files. Some included Google apps and some don't. It'll state it. Download the two zips or one if everything's together. Boot into recovery mode on your phone, and select storage and mounts.
From there go to the bottom or look for mount internal SD card or external SD card. Mount it. Then transfer the files you had downloaded to the root of your phone. Once done. Un mount it and remove the cable. Go to the menu of the recovery, select factory reset option. Then install the .zips.
Your phone should then boot up. Something must have gone wrong when you had done a hard reset.
Reply back when you've done the above. And tell me how it went.

I have the same problem. I was running 4.2.2 rom under twrp recovery. Then I flasher Philz and flashed 4.4.2 rom. I was unsatisfied with it so I flashed back the old recovery so I could restore the backup. I booted twrp, recovered the backup and reeboted the system. After booting it was saying some crap like this and that procces stopped. Now Im flashing the .zip (just downloaded rom, no data), and after that its there just the boot loop (lg picture and blinking LED). Please help what to do :good:
you should flash via download mode with kdz file to go back to stock
I don't know if it's better etiquette to semi-hijack this thread or post a new thread, but I've created the same problem for myself today. I instaled TWRP recovery successfully and downloaded a CM11 nightly along with gapps for CM11. Today I installed the zips but when my phone rebooted it started the endless LG logo loop thing, which sounds the same as he describes.
I can't seem to boot into my recovery with any key combination. Volume up and power, volume down and power, they all lead to a "Hardware Key Control Mode" menu. At this point my goal is a factory reset. Maybe the same solution that helps him will help me? I need to get the phone into either download mode or to the TWRP menu.

I rebooted my OnePlus One yesterday and found myself in a weird situation. The phone would go to the initial OnePlus logo then after, a smal android logo with a red warning sign appears for a split second, and I boot into the CM stock recovery. I can't turn it on or enter fastboot, nor can I turn on ADB Debugging on my phone and would really appreciate help as I do not want this phone to be gone. Pretty scared guys, help would be much appreciated!
I've never seen this problem before.
I supose you are bootloader unlocked, rooted and have costum recovery, right?
For fastboot, if it does not work normally, try: up button + power with the phone connected to the PC; if it does not work, try the same button combo + plug the phone to the pc while you are holding down the buttons.

Thanks for the prompt response. I think you should also know that I attempted to put a custom recovery on my OPO, but after saying that it worked, I only loaded into the CM Stock Recovery. I do not, have my phone with me at the moment as I did not think it would be necessary to bring to school with me, but I will attempt everything you have said. Thanks for the help so far!

I attempted both ways but nothing happens as I press the buttons. It will only boot in the CM Simple Recovery.

I believe you messed it up for good, since you: can't get into fastboot; have no recovery; have no backups... If you could get fastboot to go you would only need to flash twrp and then sideload a rom =/
Does the stock recovery let you sideload?

Yes. It does.
Download the stock image. I'm sure it will be there somewhere in the forums.
Then go to recovery and do the following:
Select 'apply update'. Then you either have the option to apply update from Internal Storage or from adb.
Select adb and enter: adb sideload update_filename.zip

assuming it's the stock android recovery, i'm pretty sure it allows for sideloading.
Def sounds like something got flashed to the wrong parition though
hello everyone, today i tried to flash twrp on my phone (rooted with magisk and running stock samsung rom), the flash was successful and i was able to boot into twrp but i coudnt access my storage or anything else, so i saw a guide saying to change the filesystem to ext2 then ext4, after i did that i could access most of the other folders but not the storage foldier as it still showed 0mb. i thought i just need to reboot my device to fix the issue but now im stuck on a bootloop. i cant poweroff the device since no button combination is currently working. is there anything i can do to power it off or do i have to wait a few days till the battery drains to 0?
[RECOVERY][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP for Galaxy A53 5G (Exynos)
Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and...
forum.xda-developers.com
this is the link i used to flash twrp except i didnt follow the wipe instructions because i dont want to use a custom os.
and if nothing else works and i have to wait a few days till it drains to 0, will i be able to boot back into samsung's recovery mode or is this device hard bricked?
help will be greatly appreciated.
This phone doesn't have the nice feature of holding the power button for force off so that is a negative here.
I don't think you should have edit:changed the partition types. If that was necessary it would be a ridiculous thing for other Android roms to have to do. Its all Android so should have worked without that.
Its unlikely that anything new will result from a cold boot verses a warm boot. Worth a shot I suppose but don't hold your breath. Expect nothing new.
If its stuck without Odin, fastboot, ADB, all buttons not doing anything, can't ingest and do something from sd card, can't show up via USB on computer, etc with nothing at all then its totally finished since nothing can be done. Consider it a loss and learn from it.
I'd like to also state that there are for some reason people who supposedly bring roms over to devices and they don't have the device so therefore don't really know if it works or not. You have to be careful about the guides you follow. I've seen someone try with a device that could not be unlocked ever for anyone and that person thought it would work. Live and learn.

hello, i was able to boot the phone into twrp and do a factory reset, i had to time the vol up + power button at exactly the time when the screen went black and it worked!. but now i have a question, if i want to get twrp again and i dont plan to flash a custom rom like it says in the guide, how do i get twrp to recognize my storage? and do you flash twrp before installing an os or after because ive done it after installing the os.

yeah so it seems like the issue isnt with changing the file system or anything because i installed twrp again and tried rebooting and i got the same bootloop issue, but if i flash a rom then ill lose twrp like it happened last time so i dont understand what im supposed to do
you have to format data in twrp otherwise it won't see your storage folder.
once formatted reboot to twrp then reboot to system, it should reboot to stock rom and the set up pages.

wipe>format data>type yes>reboot to recovery. i did that and still cant reboot to system bootloop issue persists
yes you did it correctly this time, is there anyway to undo your 'filesystem to ext2 then ext4'?
or maybe you have to flash the custom kernel to get it all up and running again

Try a different version of TWRP I remember this happened to me before and I installed a different version and it was fine
