I'm probably screwed here but I really do hope someone here can help me out.
Fiddling around trying to get the D80020u update back on my G2 I ended up clearing everything out of the phone include the ROM that was installed. All that's left is TWRP.
The phone won't get detected in ADB and in device manager it's an unknown device named LG-D800.
Probably a dead phone but is there a way to fix this?
Bump? :crying::crying::crying::crying:
UPDATE: Well, I was finally able to adb on twrp and tried to reflash the recovery back to a stock img file that I found for my model (D-800). Now I'm stuck on the rebooting LG Logo, and Factory hard reset does nothing. It's probably time to give up now, huh?

Can you get into download mode? If so try using @SuperSport tool to flash back to factory KK. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663369

Hey guys,
I've been using this website as reference for years but never had an issue I hadn't already seen asked.
I've been looking for weeks for a solution to this and haven't found anything.
I tried to flash cm10.1 over my stock 4.1.2 and corrupted the system.
It was booting directly to AP Fastboot and showing an error about not calling the ROM properly.
I tried reflashing using RSD Light 5.7 but every time it tried to flash the system it said the phone returned failed.
So I upgraded RSD to v6.1 and tried again. This time the phone says it flashed properly but it freezes during the droid boot logo.
I've tried using the utility and it gives me the same results.
I can get into factory recovery and I've performed several hard resets. But the phone still freezes whenever it tries to load the system.
I'm using a Motorola Factory Cable on a high speed USB port.
Any ideas why I'm stuck in a soft brick that I can't flash out of?

Format system via any of the custom recoveries before flashing your new ROM - this will wipe out any leftover problems completely & should let you start 100% fresh with a new ROM.

I lost my root when I originally got stuck in fastboot. And I can't boot up the phone until I can get it fixed.

Can you get back into fastboot now? If so
Use fastboot to flash a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP or OUDHS)
use the recovery to factory reset, wipe cache/dalvic, AND format system (sometimes in the advanced menu)
then flash rom of your choice.
If you can't get fastboot working you'll need smarter help than I can give you... but the format system step clears out all kinds of gremlins.
I can get into fast boot but I don't have an unlocked boot loader to flash anything custom.

If you can get into fastboot then you should be able to unlock b/l with this toolkit I used it and it worked for me you can also flash rom with it its in the orginial development thread

Had the same problem after a fastboot via the utility. Try powering your phone down completely and leaving it off for about 5-10 min. This can be tricky with the hardware buttons so if you have access to TWRP that will help as it has a power off option. You might also try flashing again via the utility. I believe that's what I had to do, but the power down method is what a friend suggested based of his experience with the same exact problem you documented.
FIXED!!!
OK first I want to thank everybody who responded. I got tied up with work and kind of forgot about this project for a few days.
Repeated uses of the Utility and RSD both left me stuck with the phone freezing every time it tried to load the system into memory.
I had checked out the toolbox before but I didn't think I could do much from a locked bootloader.
After your suggestion jmcdonald I tried it again. It says my device isn't available to be unlocked so I tried downgrading back to ICS.
The toolbox says that it failed but it must have fixed something because the phone booted back up to android 4.1.2 stock!
So far I have bricked a lot of phones and learned a lot about ADB in the process of fixing them but I've never had one I was so certain was bricked permanently. But now it seems to be working fine, I'm scared to try rebooting in now.
Definatly going to unlock the bootloader pronto.
Thanks again jmcdonald!
Hey there guys.
I rooted my Blaze back in October, and loaded CWM 10. Things weren't working 100% right and I decided to unroot today to get the phone back to factory settings. Unfortunately, no matter how many times I follow the directions for unrooting the Blaze--using the .pit, and the updated firmware .tar--my phone still gets stuck in a reboot loop. It gets past the T-Mobile Blaze screen, but gets stuck on the SAMSUNG screen (it just has SAMSUNG flashing over and over, and then loops into the Android screen).
I've tried to flash the stock .tar about seven times now, and each time it's done the exact same thing. I haven't been able to find a thread to help me, despite searching enthusiastically, so I hope you guys can help me out. Basically, I've done everything the unrooting guides have told me to do, but my phone still appears to be soft-bricked. I can still get into download mode, Odin still recognizes the phone, and it always says that my process has succeeded, but then the phone still gets stuck in a reboot loop.
Any ideas?
Have you booted to the recovery and factory resetted and wiped cache?

I did before I tried to unroot it the first time, yes, with CWM. Now, the phone seems to think it's unrooted, so it won't let me go into recovery mode and factory reset.

Oops, sorry, I misinterpreted your question. Yes, when I boot into recovery mode I can factory reset, wipe cache, etc. I've done all those things before trying to flash the stock rom, and it hasn't helped.

So first register at www.sammobile.com, then search SGH-T769 under firmware and download the August 2012 ICS or The Feb 2013 ICS Firmware, wait for the download to finish (took me 30 minutes) then extract which ever firmware zip you downloaded then using Odin click on PDA and select the .md5 file which is located in the extracted ICS Firmware Folder that you've downloaded from sammobile.com
Download the PIT file here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
Click on PIT in Odin and then select the one downloaded from the link above
then make sure re-partition isn't checked and start the flashing process after it is done flashing and reboots you'll have stock ics
*BOOT LOOP MIGHT OCCUR*
To fix boot looping after flashing stock ICS just boot into stock or custom recovery and wipe data and cache then reboot and you're good to go.

Thank u i thought i was fully bricked
Thank u for the post my phone is alive again thank u alot i was trying to install twrp after i had cwm recovery and i wasnt able to install it so it soft bricked my phone but i used ur steps and it all worked out thanks :victory:
I recently flashed my oneplus one and it seems to be working fine at the moment then suddenly my phone force closed and went into bootloop. it wouldn't go beyond the oneplus logo, it will reboot again after 3/4 seconds. i tried factory resetting and full data wipe but it doesn't seem to be working. the weird thing is it will only stop bootlooping if i connect it to a charger. if i unplug the charger the phone will force close and bootloop again. Please help!!
If you're able to boot into bootloader you should be able to flash the stock fastboot image from the and most likely fix that. I had this issue multiple times.
Try it out..
This is just a ROM issue. You might restore your phone to original ROM or try out reflashing your custom ROM again. Do wipe all cache just after flashing the ROM.
DO BACKUP ALL YOUR DATA ONCE BOOTED INTO RECOVERY.

I usually download this roms from the Signed fastboot zips list.
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/mirrors-for-official-cyanogen-roms-ota-updates.141825/
Buddy.. You need to restore you phone via FASTBOOT not via Bootloader. For this, simply search on google for:
Return your OPO to 100% Stock ROM XDA
And the first link by our friend EddyOS in xda will be there. I am 99.99% sure that it will work out.
Flash flashable signed stock.zip if you are able to go to recovery...(Clear Cache,Dalvik Cache,Data and Factory Reset
Hi, I came here because I've tried to fix my phone but no hope. My situation si that I'm on a Loop in the booting process where the phone starts the booting process but crashes maybe on the bootloader. My system can see the Port COM 4 and I tried the Mobile upgrade program but after it detects the phone and I click "Update" button the phone goes into the loop maybe trying to get into Fastboot. Lastly, the download fails.
I have never hacked or made any modifications on an Android phone before so I'm a complete noob to this ADB tools and don't have a clue on how to use any tool to recover this phone.
I'm able to boot into "Download mode" and nothing else, maybe there's a combination for getting into the bootloader but I don't see anything about that in the many searches.
Any help is much appreciated.
you device is bricked and you try root install a custom rom or a bad upgrade

First boot into recovery and wipe cache and data.
If that fails try again. It fails again use the below method to restore your phone.
Go into download mode and using the ABD install your stock rom., Meaning your phones original version.
Your phones not bricked.

everything went accordingly but TWRP never installed. I to boot into recovery and it booted android recovery instead of TWRP. So i tried again using Firehorse but my phone did not boot to download mode, so i cleared cache using the Android system recovery but then i received an error can't mount cache/recovery , so i tried to reset to factory data and received yet again other errors. Force-Restarting my phone ended up in a bootloop that i am not sure how to remove. Please help

Hi, you may want to try a different TWRP recovery. Had the same problem. solved with TWRP 3.0.0 f2fs from Decker's MM TWRP backup. TWRP 3.1 also works with Sahara&Firehose.
Hope this helps.
How can in get out of this boot loop, any advice, answers, help appreciated?
As background my Lenovo Tab 4 10 plus (stock 7.1 rom) had a failed SD card so I replaced the card and factory reset and thought I would try TWRP, Linageos 17.1 with magisk and relevent gapps - this all worked fine other than a Skype issue. I then found an 18.1 rom and tried that and this is where it seems to have gone wrong I set it up in the same ways as the 17.1 rom but with Andriod 11 gapps to suit, did a factory reset and 30 seocnds in I got the boot loop.
To fix it I tried going back to the 17.1 rom set-up that had worked but this then boot looped even with a full recovery reset. I have gone back to the stock rom backup in TWRP again with a recovery reset same boot loop. I have even used the Lenovo recovery tool to EDL mode flash a newly downloaded stock rom and it's still boot looping. I can only think that the 18.1 andriod 11 rom changed something fundimental but I can't find what?
Further I have another problem, the EDL flash worked but it locked the bootloader, however as I can't get in to Andriod with the boot loops, I can't switch ADB mode on so I can't unlock the bootloader to get TWRP up again.
So is there a way to start ADB without access to develeoper settings maybe through fastboot or recovery which I can get in to? Unlock the bootloader without ADB? Does anyone know why after the 18.1 Andriod 11 based rom, I have this continous boot loop?
I have a tb-x704f wich was totally caught in a boot loop, but I manisched to get back to working stock.
I was running firmware s000056 when I flashed twrp without backing up anything. I thought I never would have to go back to nougat, but standby time on lineage os was just not good for me, as I only use my tablet maybe half an hour a day, and I had to charge several times a week nevertheless.
So I tried to get back to stock and awesome standby time.
It was not easy bootloop after bootloop.
Tried Lenovo rescue and smart assistant multiple times, factory reset before and after flash, without SD card inserted etc, but bootloop.
Tried flashing the rom downloaded from the rescue tool with qfil but same result.
I then tried flashing the files with miflash 2016.08.30.0 still the same rom as I thought it had to be s000056. Miflash stopped halfway with some kind of error.
I then downloaded a stock rom from lenovo-forums.ru http://lenovo-forums.ru/topic/24135-lenovo-tab4-a10-plus-proshivka-tb-x704f_s000037_170703_row_qfil/
from the link in the discussion in the bottom of the site.
I had twrp still so from there I got into terminal and wrote "reboot edl" to get into emergency download mode and then flashed away. I presume that I could just as well had gotten in to edl mode by pressing vol+ and vol- simultaneously and then connected to PC holding those to buttons pressed. When the tablet was finished it was off, so I started going to recovery and wipeed cache and did a factory reset. Then booted and instead of bootloop it showed the Lenovo screen with a progress bar underneath. I successfully booted and took a update and then i am back to stock s000056.
The rom I got from lenovo-forums.ru stated it was only for EU and wi-fi model only. I am in Denmark and my tablet is WiFi only.
I think chances for success is greater using miflash than other tools when recovering from bootloop, but then again I don't know. Maybe I could just have flashed the s000037 rom with qfil or maybe I was just lucky, who knows.
But this what worked for me.
I hope this can help someone as I could not with the help of god find any useful help regarding this problem.

Thanks kind man You helped finish my struggle!
The only thing I want to add is that the ROM from the original link is no longer available, so I found the correct ROM using Google from the original filename here https://firmware247.com/lenovo-tab4-a10-plus-tb-x704f-firmware/
