[Q] Possible Bricked P920 (Stuck on Boot) [SOLVED]

Hey there,
In a bit of a dilemma here with my phone.
I was running the XBSA V21E Gingerbread with ICS Theme ROM with the TitanKernel V0.4.2 V21D 09-04-2012.
I decided to install I a new rom without a flash, The Promethius Project V1.4 followed with he latest Promethius Kernel. All went successfully with no errors, according the the boot anyway.
ok...after trying to reboot many times, I have not been able to get any further than the 'LG Boot Logo' I left it on last night as I couldn't be bothered trying to fix it at the time and it stayed on the logo for over 7 hours. (Figured it would nonetheless)
These are the steps that I have tried, of which wont work for me:
1 - Turn off your phone
2 - Press power and volume down until the LG logo apears.
3 - Release the power button but keep the volume down pressed.
This takes you to the recovery screen.
1) Start LG Mobile update
2) Power off your phone without USB cable
3) Connect the USB cable and wait for the LG logo and the annimation battery
4) Pressing Vol.up + power 6-7 seconde wait for the LG logo and The screen turns off
5) Again pressing Vol.up + power 6-7 seconde and wait until the drivers are installed (LG Mobile update detects your phone and the screen is always off)
6) Click on User/Support then emergency mode, insert your IMEI and click on check - I get a popup saying "Please Check Phone Information Again"
Iv'e done everything with and without the battery in place, I have removed sim and SD card.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards.
EDIT: Solved!!....huh? How?.... Well my lesson learned is, flash before installing a rom....[GUIDE] Recovering from brick/bootloop
Worked for me anyway

if the case is stuck on LG logo, go to CWM menus, wipe all and reinstall the ROM, install it twice, reboot. (always work for me if I got stuck on LG logo).
sorry for my bad english.

I mentioned that I can't get to the menu in my post.

ow sorry, I didn't notice that you can't go back to CWM menus also.
you are using LG Mobile Support Tool right for recovering?
If not, download LG Mobile Support Tool and run.
- Change Country in Option&Help, select country.
- Download the usb driver, if you are not installed yet.
- Take off your battery
- Connect the phone while holding vol.up and wait until LG support tool detect your phone
- If it connected, go to Customer Support and select Recovery Phone
- insert your IMEI, ok
- wait until it finish downloading and recovery your phone.
If not succeed on downloading, try install PC suite first and redo the steps.
Hope it's work.

I don't mean to be rude, but did you read my post at all? I mentioned that I can't do that either.
1) Start LG Mobile update
2) Power off your phone without USB cable
3) Connect the USB cable and wait for the LG logo and the annimation battery
4) Pressing Vol.up + power 6-7 seconde wait for the LG logo and The screen turns off
5) Again pressing Vol.up + power 6-7 seconde and wait until the drivers are installed (LG Mobile update detects your phone and the screen is always off)
6) Click on User/Support then emergency mode, insert your IMEI and click on check - I get a popup saying "Please Check Phone Information Again"

Thanks! But, my Fire XT was unrooted and I'm not sure if I should proceed with this. You have read my other thread over at Android Q & A. Please tell me if I should proceed with this or not.

I tried it. My phone does not seem to go into download mode. Any idea why? I held down the three keys for more than 5 minutes, but the white lights just keep showing. Nothing else happens.
Update: The phone screen turned on after a few minutes of holding down the buttons. It shows a screen where there's a battery icon. I believe the phone was severely drained. No other reason for it. But why didn't the screen show when I had plugged it into the computer yesterday or when I tried charging it for hours long back?
I'll keep you posted when the phone turns on.

I think it's some hardware error you got.
I too had the same problem you have.
I returned it to the sc they replaced it's motherboard.
But I think your phone turned on for a reason known as stack charging.
It is cycle of continous charging. Let it charge and ensure that battery is more than 70%.
Then you can perform this procedure.

Try pulling the battery, putting again and connect your phone with volume down(-) and camera button pressed.
See if that works.

There are only three modes in XT530
1. Flash mode
2. Recovery mode
3. FTM mode
Of them which one you are talking about?
I think other name of flash mode is download mode.

I think you did something wrong because all other people succeeded in this.

I plugged it into my computer. Went into flash mode. It doesnt show up on RSD lite because the driver is missing for some reason.
Unless im missing something?

Any of them. I can only get to recovery and flash. I dont think flash and download are the same though.

HELP Please; soft brick

Hi everyone.
Ok back in August I purchased an Oppo r7plus "m" version not knowing the difference, from a 3rd party seller. I know I probably should've waited until the phone would go on sale in Canada but I wasn't sure if it ever would. So anyways the phone worked great for a while. I noticed that it came pre loaded with OPPO Tools and Super SU. I thought wow, this phone is rooted right of the box? Great! So I started uninstalling some native apps of which I thought were just "bloatware", everything went fine until I uninstalled the weather app.
When I turned the phone back on after restarting, it now goes into the OS but continuosly flashes on and off and you can only access the dropdown notification screen. Luckily from there I can still access the settings menu. I tried holding the power button and volume down button to go to the factory boot screen. That worked and in there its says the color os version, but in brackets says
(rooted).
I can only assume the phone is still rooted but is stuck in some sort of soft brick. I've been doing alot of reading into how I might be able to fix the phone but I'm having trouble figuring it out. I'm good with computers and all but not to this level and I never rooted an android phone before.
Please somebody HELP.

So I've downloaded the ROM for my phone model, r7 plus m, and I transfered the zip file over to the internal storage of the device. I then held down the volume down and power buttons to boot to color os recovery. Than I cleared cache and install from sd found the zip file and it started to run.
After about a minute or two into the installation it stops and reads "Installation Failed". I'm thinking I need a recovery.img file but I'm not sure. Even if I had that file I don't know what to do next.
Anyone have any ideas?

Hi, how did you sort it? Are you still in need of stock recovery? I have one for model F, dont know if it works with M model.

1. Download and extract my RAR files ---> HERE
2. Open your PC device manager
3. Connect an usb cable only to your pc then press and hold the phone volume + button and then connect the usb cable to the phone
3. In the device manager you will see Qhsub_bulk then release the volume+ button
4. Right click on Qhsub_bulk and choose update driver
5. Use one of the driver folders which you alredy extract to install the Qualcomm driver and you will see it like 9008
6. Your phone have to be charged very well for a few hours before you try to flash it.
7. Remove it from the charger then connect an usb cable only to your pc.
8. Try to press and hold the volume + and power buttons at the same time for a few seconds and connect the usb cable to the phone.
9. You have to see the driver in the device manager like 9006 (you can release the buttons) [it wasn't easy for me so keep trying]
10. Open the MSMDownloader and press start
11. If everything is ok you will see a green progress bar flashing. (I was stuck here with the "NON-HLOS.bin" file which you can see in the "Other NON-HLOS File" folder inside the rom which you download)
12. When the process complete in about 10 minutes you can remove the usb cable from your phone.
13. Now you have to do a veeeeeeeery long press and hold on your power button untill you feel the vibration and after that you will see the OPPO logo.
14. Leave it for 5-10 minutes to load the Color OS.
15. Ok you have a working phone but still some apps icons that are missing and the keyboard doesn't appear when you have to write something.
16. Download THIS zipped ROM and put it in the internal storage of your phone.
17. Shut down the phone then press and hold the volume - and the power button at the same time for a while intil you enter into recovery mode.
18. Choose english and then install rom from zip file. After the installation complete reboot the phone and you will get a working keyboard and few more apps like Browser, Chinese market and else....
For me i still need to insert the IMEI's because they are lost... and now i have message: Oppo nv backup. The NV partition is invalid...
Good luck to all! And if you want to give me a beer: paypal: [email protected]

Is my phone dead? Please help

So, here is the deal.
I was in middle of messaging my friend on Facebook when suddenly, my phone went to a black screen.
Model: Idol 3 6045X
OS: AlekOS 3.1
Battery: around 15% (I think, can't be positive but it was low with no sign of battery saver turning on aka no orange mode)
Rooted: Yes
I tried to reboot it in several ways, tried to charge it(notification led lights up as indication that its charging). I am out of ideas, can anyone help and guide me a way to determine if its dead or can I somehow bring it back to life.

Bricked S7

Hi, so i was trying to install the stock rom on my s7 that was running android 9 (and the power button is not working by the way, it was just pressed).
by doing this it removed the twrp recovery that i needed for going in download because if i have the button pressed and i go in download mode it cant click volume up to continue.
when it rebooted from the flashing it started to load the samsung logo for aroud 10 minutes, then it started saying that it was optimizing 39 apps but when it got on 39, the phone didnt reboot but reloaded the boot animation and with the led blue, it still done the same thing. so i just get the phone and reboot to recovery but something strange was happening, the blue led was still there.
after litteraly wait like all day to wait for this phone to turn off i turned it back on and the phone rebooted on recovery and it didnt want to boot to android. now i'm stuck with my phone that can go on dowload mode and recovery only and from the recovery it says on my pc that the phone/device its not reconized and i cant go anyway in download mode, only the triangle and adb does not work.
Anyone that can help me? i just need to go on download mode
