Hi everyone, I have the unfortunate moment of having a failure during an update by LG PC Suite. Initially it was stuck with the picture "Downloading mode", but as the update keep failing at 4%, I read some online threats to press the volume up and power, and now I regretted it. I am stuck with the phone being detected as "hsq-usb dload", no way to go back to the "Downloading mode" picture, even though I tried pressing combinations like volume up+volume down..etc...
I did a search and found alot of people having the same problem, but unfortunately, I am unable to find a solution that fix mine. So far I have installed the Qualcomm hs-usb qdloader driver and it shows up under Device Manager as Port 8.
I have tried the following:
1) Using QPST, detected as phone in "Downloading mode", but I do not know how to proceed as the images and hex files online are not for my model. In addition, it requires the SPC code...so....
2) Using a trial version of CDMA workshop, it detects my phone as "Downloading Mode". I tried to use it to switch modes to Reset or Power Off, but it didnt work.
In addition, the trial mode does not allow me to "read" the SPC code. An earlier version of 2.7 is totally not able to "Read" my phone, showing all details as "Error:" when a read is attempted
3)Using Linux, Ubuntu (via VMPlayer). I was able to see it being detected under lsusb command, which shows as a qualcomm modem. I tried using scripts from various sources like brickdetect.sh, PblClear, lgL9FixBoot.sh ( I know these aren't for my phone, but I was desperate enough to try), and nope, it didnt result in any change in state of my phone.
I am not really a technical person (but willing to try), and I have spend 2 days trying and researching, and I am now out of ideas. As such, I am posting here hoping if anyone has any solutions? Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Unfortunately there's no section for your device on XDA and I can't find a relevant thread. You will need to ask for help here,
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!
Thank you, I will shift my questions over there Guess my phone was a low profile one
Thank you. Thread closed.

Hello everyone and well I have to say I am at my wits end over here.
I have literally just spent hours trying to find the solution without luck. So any help will be greatly appreciated.
I am completely new to android as well and this only makes things much more worse.
I have a Proscan PLT-7035 a cheap tablet by all means and my son accidentally locked the screen under too many password attempts.
I have been trying to factory restore it only to learn this Chinese hardware apparently was not shipped with a recovery option.
This means I cannot put it under USB debugging and I cannot disable mount the mass storage device. So when I connect it to my computer I am able to access all the files but that is it. Honestly it is the biggest 4G usb stick I have ever owned.
Anyway I have tried multiple guides to root and what not as well as I tried multiple button combinations to no avail. It also seems I am able to enter recovery mode by clicking the power button + volume down after shutting the device.
You can hear the sounds in windows of a device being connected and disconnected. There was also an uninstalled driver when i checked Device manager. This is how I was ultimately able to install the drivers as per this guide
It now shows under Android Device as Android Composite ADB Interface.
Now I have tried using Rockchip Batch Tool but It also gets stuck on <Layer 3-3> Test Device Start.
I have tried ICS Root Unlocker and I get error :device not found.
I try adb devices and no devices are listed.
My device is clearly not being detected and I do not know if this is due to driver incompatibility or due to the fact I cannot set the device to USB debugging.
I already disabled driver signature enforcement I'm on Win8Enterprise N x64.
Now someone here was kind enough to upload these and I have absolutely no idea. How to install them or have them run.
So you all can see I've been almost everywhere and in all honesty I have no idea what to do next.
Any lleads will be Godsend. Thanks in advance.
Please let me know if this is in the wrong category. Thanks
Hey everyone. I couldn't find an answer to this that I could follow and that worked for me as I'm not very technically inclined.
My HTC One X recently died after having a low battery and now whenever I try to turn it on (even when it is fully charged), it gets to the lock screen, but I can only access everything for about 5 seconds before it restarts again. I know I have USB debugging enabled, and I can get to the screen that shows up when I hold down the power button and the volume-down button.
What I want to do, before doing a factory reset and praying that ends the bootloop, is recover my photos which I stupidly did not back up anywhere. I can connect my phone to my laptop, which runs on Windows 8, but it is not recognized as it normally would be (ie: I can't access files directly). I've gotten to the point where I can see "FASTBOOT USB" on my phone when it is connected and I've restarted my PC so that it is able to identify it in the Device Manager. I have also gone through the steps of downloading a universal naked driver and choosing the driver under the Device Manager, so when I use a command prompt my phone shows up in fastboot devices. (I used minimal fastboot and ADB)
But what can I do now? I have never tampered with my phone, so it is locked or unrooted. I'd like to keep it that way if possible, but I'm having a hard time understanding how I can retrieve my photos. Should I use ADB commands, and if so, how do I get to the point where my PC recognizes my phone under ADB devices? Or is there a better way? I'm also not very familiar with custom roms, TWRP, CWM, etc.
I'd appreciate a brief walk-through if possible as, like I said, I don't normally do this sort of thing. Thank you!

Try Power the Device Up in Safe Mode - HTC One®
Do you know the model number? Is it the AT&T or Rogers? s720e, G23, 720, 325...

I tried going into safe mode and nothing changed! It didn't break the bootloop, so I guess it isn't an app that's causing the problem. It's with Rogers, but I don't know the model number... I got it in North America if that helps.

It's likely a s720e then, but
I will request that this thread be moved to AT&T One X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Where you should be able to find out for sure.
Next step is likely flashing a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM then you could, mount sd card/storage and copy photos.

I have a Cherry Mobile Flare Lite which is unlisted on this site, unfortunately, that I tried unrooting because of reasons. After the unroot which I thought was successful, I reset my phone. When it turned on again, it showed me a screen that says "oot access is missing. Root devic" and below it "THIS CANNOT BE UNDONE." with two options right below that. One says "No" and the other "Yes - Root device (/system..." It happened a few days after the unroot and I can actually choose "no" without any problems and the phone would start up normally. But now it won't let me even choose, it's like it freezes the moment it shows the stuff said above and keeps resetting and resetting. I keep tapping on the options, pushing the volume buttons and power buttons but no response. It just freezes and resets. What did I do and what can I do to fix it?
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
Can you boot to recovery or to download/fastboot mode or whatever flash mode your device has? Can you connect the device to adb?
Be prepared to use the tools I mentioned, get adb installed and set up on your PC, make sure you have your drivers installed on PC to connect your device, search for the flashtool that your device uses and install it if you don't already have it.
Have you tried rooting the device the way you did the first time?

I have a Xperia S running cm 12.1 with unlocked bootloaders TWRP installed and i tried to partition my SD card [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2584759] but clearly something went wrong and now the phone wont boot. I made a lot of research and tried everything but all the guides require to be able to boot into flashmode . My phone is dead the only sign of life is a red led when its charging which after some hours of charge will shut off. When the light is off and the phone connected on PC, the PC can recognize the device on unspecified devices (QHSUSB_DLOAD). i have installed all the needed drivers from Sony, google drivers from sdk, and adb drivers(adb wont see the device and i tried everything to do so, but nothing seem to work). I got a market for android on my pc called mobogenie that when i connect the phone it detects that a phone is connected but wont see what phone.The hardware reset buttons work but its useless in the current position. Concluding, the phone is bricked and wont open in fastboot-flashboot-bootloader-TWRP, its recognized as a device but not as "Xperia s" i got all the drivers and i want to flash the original firmware (already downloaded) to fix it. A possible problem is that the partition table is destroyed and after the flash it will hopefully be restored. The problem is not on the hardware but on software. I tried to trigger the download mode with the Samsung way (USB jig, 300k ohm ) but nothing happened as expected. Every solution i found required flash mode which is not accessible at the moment and i tried lots of things to go into fastboot(ever the rubber band trick,remove the battery etc). PLEASE help i dont know what to do, please help me flash it (i already got flashtool, Emma) or anohter solution. Thanks for the help in advance. (its my first thread in the forum, i hope to post it on the right section, i posted it here because i need the assistance of the developers i guess)

Hi all,
Apologies in advance as I'm pretty new with this stuff and may be misusing terminology or have some fundamental things mixed up.
I've been searching for a while on how to root/unlock the bootloader for the LG G7 One (LMQ910UM), and there seems to be a mix of people saying they haven't yet figured out a way to do this and others providing theoretical suggestions (who don't own the phone themselves). I've been studying the very helpful guide from Awesomeslayerg here, who thought that their process should work for the majority of G7 devices. The problems that I've run into seem to be different than those I've found other people discussing, so I thought to share, in case I'm missing something obvious.
I can get the phone into EDL mode by running "adb reboot recovery" and then holding Vol +. My Windows device manager registers it as an unknown device, but not as QHUSB_BULK. Instead, it shows up under Ports as a generic "USB Serial Device," with the little warning triangle. On my laptop, it would typically show up in the USB controllers list. On both computers (my PC and my laptop) I've tried various methods for installing the Qualcomm 9008 QDLoader driver, to no avail. If I just run the install wizard EXE, I get the Qualcomm HS-USB showing as a hidden device, but when I plug in the phone, it would just stay hidden/inactive and the phone would come up as an unknown USB Serial Device. I tried the manual install method (described here), disabling Driver Signature Verification as instructed, but what would happen every time is that the Device Manager would just hang out "installing drivers" forever. I once had it running on my laptop for about 30 minutes before the computer simply blue-screened.
At some points, usually after I force-quit Device Manager and rebooted, the Qualcomm port would display as hidden and then actually show up as a functioning device when I would plug in my phone (while in EDL), but I would still get the "unrecognized device" Windows notification popping up (even though I was no longer seeing it display as an unrecognized device in the manager), and QFIL was unable to recognize the port at all (the port list would just show up blank).
I fully expect that somebody may simply inform me that it's established that the G7 One can't be rooted, but I thought it was worth putting out the issues I've been having in case there's something I'm misunderstanding or overlooking.
Thank you for your time
Ben
It wont work thats for most G7 ThinQs not G7s ... g7 one has sdm835 thinQ has 845 ... edl mode its integrated in SOC itself so you need the proprietary firehose in order to be able to work with qfil and that firehose its only for LG SDM845
Any bootloader unlock updates?
