I have multiple problems so read on.
A couple weeks ago the computer stopped recognizing my verizon gnex that was rooted, unlocked and running jbsourcery 5.1 that it previously had no problems seeing. It still charges via wall and usb with original m-usb cable. I've tried numerous times to re-install the samsung driver on the computer with wug's toolkit with no luck. I've tried another samsung m-usb cable...no luck. My computer is new so no problems with usb ports (I've tried all of them) and have tried the ver 2.0 port. USB debugging is on and fastcharge is off.
My second and worst problem:
Yesterday in a fit of stupidity I restored one of my original backups ( I believe made with CWM recovery ) that turned out to be a stock. img and after restoring it OTA updated to stock JB. All my other backups were done with TWRP and it's no longer present on the phone. I tried installing BootUnlocker from play store but it says I have no root access and the phone won't flash either recovery so I'm stuck with only Fastboot ver. 9 that only wants to flash something from adb. I've exhausted my knowledge and eyes are crossed from reading forums.
I want to get back to full rooted or back to full stock.
It is still unlocked
I don't know if I can use something like Terminal Emulator for this or even how to use it.
If you know enough to see that I'm totally screwed...Please tell me! (I'm a big boy)
If you think you have a solution...You are a god!
If you need more info...I can provide it
Whoa...really big problem

Rom manager is on the phone but each time i try to reboot into recovery it does nothing. If I try to enter recovery through VOL up/dwn-Pwr it just goes to minimal fastboot that only gives me the option of installing from adb.

It wont flash recovery while in Rom manager but it says CWM and Twrp are both installed on phone.
First thing, I was serious about ur age,
Second to go into recovery mode see here.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vXCyI-BpZw
Yes...but when I try to enter recovery all I get is the dead android icon with a red triangle on his chest. If i press vol/up and pwr button at this point it goes to the install from adb options in fastboot ver.9
And I'm being honest...I'm 50
First thing, see the second thing
Second thing go here,

Pls press thnx if helped.
Sorry, I tried reloading the drivers into computer so I could use Wugs toolkit but they won't load because the computer doesn't recognize the phone. I keep getting an error 10 when trying to update the drivers. I truly appreciate your help and thank you but I'm stuck.
Any other ideas?
Ur welcome and sorry I couldn't help much...
I'll try help ASAP...
Sorry again..
You may have already tried it, but have you tried to plug the phone into a different computer ?
Yes, I have a win xp laptop I tried connecting to also. No luck
I did this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2046439 then attempted to put CM10(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840414) on the phone. I downloaded the stable version for Verizon wireless and made sure it was correct etc. I went to TWRP and put install then went to the .zip and continued after doing that the phone resets saying "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help.". I am not entirely sure what I did wrong but it will no longer let me enter twrp but it does let me go to the download screen. Did I brick it or what? Thanks.

That method did that too me as well. use this instead

You didn't brick it I had that pop up my first flash as well
Pretty sure It was because it didn't unlock the bootloader correctly.

How do I use odin to put the bootloader file on my phone since it's not an .md5 file etc.? Sorry, just don't understand.
" I held volume down/home for a few seconds and then held power. The phone booted to a mode I had not seen before (recovery/download as you said?) and I said cancel and the phone booted!"
Boot normal. use tool in first link to unlock the bootloader and CM should be up and running
---------- Post added at 02:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------
also you should be able to get into recovery just let go of the volume, power, home as soon as you see the samsung logo pop up

I did the hold the volume button down/home at same time then press power but that sends me to the normal do I want to download press up to continue or down to cancel. I pressed down and it still gave me the warning. I try going to recovery but it prevents me by telling me the same message. I think it's the bootloader like you said but I don't understand how to get the file on the phone through oden. I downloaded that first link but it won't go through oden because it's not the .md5 etc and the computer isn't showing me the phone data through my files.
I am going to odin flash a stock image then re-boot.
I reflashed the phone using odin. I went through and used the "casual" rooting process which appeared to work. I went into twerp then pressed install then pressed the .zip for the CM mod. It re-loaded and now it's stuck on the CyanogenMod screen with a circle. I don't understand if it's installing or what?
I understand now why it wasn't working. Answer in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36341274 Anyways, now that I got CM to work. GAPPS refuses to work, it sends an error message saying that the Setup Wizard has failed. I don't understand that.
Checked to make sure the GAPPS version I downloaded was the one compatibale with the CM version, it was not so I re-downloaded the correct version now everything is working great. Thanks spitfire143 for all the help and getting me on the right track!
Here is the rundown. I have the d 850 LG g3. Was planning on unrooting phone from towel root and rerooting it using towelroot once I found the mod I wanted. I have the latest version of twrp loaded as well. On my way home from work yesterday I was riding my motorcycle and listening to music, all the sudden the music stops so I pull over to see what happened and look to see that my phone has somehow opened twrp. I get home and try to reboot phone and it loads right back into twrp. I did a backup. Restarted phone to same results. I factory reset phone thinking that would work. NOPE. Straight back into twrp so I plug phone into computer to see what's on it. It appears all my games music LG backup etc is still there's why can't I get out of twrp. Could I have accidentally wiped everything while in my pocket? Can I fix this problem or do i now have a $500 paperweight? Please please folks out there in xda land help me out. I've got experience in rooting with my htc m7 so am familiar with this stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Somehow your rom partition/system seems to be corrupted. If you want to try and save your data, Please copy the downloaded version of your current rom and dirty flash (flash without wipe) and try to get back into the system. If you do not have your rom in your internal memory, try adb sideload or try to copy it to your external SD card and install from there.
You can also try to copy your stuff over to the external SD card using the file manager in TWRP and then wipe and install your rom.
If none of these wor, you still can flash factory image by process defined in the this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/general/unroot-return-to-factory-stock-att-lg-g3-t2820827
I believe you can still rescue your phone. Please let us know how it went.
I tried flashing a ROM with gaps and rebooted and it still senT me back into TWRP.
Maybe his phone tried to download and install the OTA? Try this also if the above doesn't work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/fix-stuck-custom-recovery-trying-ota-t2907508

The rom is normally a zip file.
If you already tried to flash a rom (other than your current one) I suggest you try the "back to stock" thing that was referred in my last post. If you have all the drivers in place and do the process correctly (preferably from a Windows 7 laptop), Your phone will be burst back to life in no time.. Good luck..!!

That is exactly what you want. You are now in download mode. So please proceed to next step (i believe the next step is on the laptop).
But the firmware update hasn't even gotten to 1% yet and I don't know how to get back to download mode. I don't know if unplugging device and trying again will mess it up even more. Device manager didn't pop up on computer either

Device manager wont "pop up".. you need to pull it from control pannel. Once you confirmed/changed the port to 41, i believe you can pull the usb, wait for 5 sec and put in back in. Follow exactly as instructed in the thread and you should be fine.

Also firmware update starts after the "usb pull" and re-plug in.

Thanks for sharing. Testing tonight. I got the update to 5.1.1 from T-mobile and I did not know that if you try to root after the update, it will soft brick your phone and the user WILL NOT be able to do the factory restore with the power and volume down trick. The phone wont respond. My phone is pretty much dead. If this works, you will be my favorite superhero. Thanks!

I came back to say thank you again, you just saved my phone. Even my settings came back. You are the only person I was able to to find that had the right fix without running me around. I was not able to place the phone in download mode, but still followed your steps. The LG support too stopped at 24% and told me to remove the cable and the battery and place the battery back in. I placed the battery back and pushed the up volume almost at the same time that I inserted the USB cable on the phone. The phone went into download mode which I was not able to do before. Then the software continued to install the stock ROM. At the end, my phone rebooted and all my settings and apps were back how I left them before bricking the phone. Thanks forever.

Thank you so much man. My LG devices have a history of dying due to flashing roms/recoveries but this is the first time a root messed up my phone. You saved me.

T-mobile had pushed an update to 5.1.1 and I reluctantly accepted. Then I tried to root using "LG One Click Root" application from XDA. It says it went through the rooting process successfully but when the phone restarts, it gets stuck at the LG boot screen. This fixes it!
So just FYI -- DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ROOT T-MOBILE LG LEON 5.1.1! IT WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE.

I also used "LG One Click Root" but on a Metro PCS LG Leon LTE and it went through the process and rebooted but got stuck on the logo.
I'm having a situation where the downgrade succeeds, but the phone still stays at LG logo and keeps booting.
If I connect the LG mobile support tool application, it states the phone is on 34510d firmware (eg, it does not downgrade, but remains in boot loop).
What I did was upgrade manually to T-mobile 5.1.1 and then wanted to downgrade to original stock rom.
Opens LG Mobile Support Tool, then "Connection To Server Failed" error. Stops there. No joy on this "fix"
Any suggestions why?
Will this unlock the phone as well ?
LG Leon H345 KDZ Stock Firmware Download brick fix works
LG Leon H345 KDZ Stock Firmware Download brick fix works
This works 100%! Please be aware that this is a more direct link to the KDZ Firmware! It will take you straight to the page that you need to be at without having to worry about your IMEI number at all! It has the KDZ Firmware image for all countrys and make and models of this phone!
lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=171
Also, be aware that there are more download options than what you see up top! I almost downloaded the wrong file for my phone this way! This is because it had the tmobile h345 leon right there uptop so I just clicked on it and started downloading it. However when you scroll down you'll see that there is a USA section that actually has several different versions for the same phone! Most notably the V10d, v10e, and the v10f! When making your selection look at the back of the phone behind the battery under neither the IMEI number and you'll see what version you have. Mine was the v10e, v10d is whats at the top under most downloaded so please make sure that you pay attention and don't make the same mistake that I almost made!
I also made another discovery. If you are unable to run the flash tool then that means that you need to download Visual C++ runtime Libary.
Another thing, when running the flash tool you may notice that it attempts to connect to a server and then has and error and says that it failed. It will happen as its flashing the phone and you see the bar moving percentage wise. However, do not be alarmed and do not close out of the app and try again! If you look at your phone you'll see that the car is still moving and that files are still being updated!
Also, even once it gets to a 100% it will still take a few minutes to complete so dont' worry about that!

This will not unlock this phone! However you can use the new version of KingRoot and that will do it!

Opens LG Mobile Support Tool, then "Connection To Server Failed" error. Stops there. No joy on this "fix"

Yes, actually I do. In my last post i stated that that does occur every time. However, you don't have to worry, just don't close the program and wait. If you look at your phone you notices that it will continue to update the even though it has that error, Once the phone is done updating and reboots. You'll see it updating the applications on the phone! An you'll be good to go!
So there IS JOY, in the FIX after all! Trust me, I just did it! :good:

Yes it does say that. A screen pops up with an OK button and tell you that the connection to the server failed and asks you if you would like to cancel the update. Just ignore it and wait and watch you phone and you'll see it update.
Also, on doing another phone i've noticed that the Read Phone command when you first press the normal flash button can cause the application to crash for some reason. However, if you just sick that part and press START then you'll be able to proceed as normally and it will work just fine!:good:
i use twrp recovery in my lg leon but the problem is i cant boot back to my phone
hello guys, my problem is my phone can't boot up to my android device, its still booting in twrp, i use the method but it won't go to download mode, please i need help(
i cant entre to download and boot the phone mode when i try to downgrade from 10c to 10b help
Thanks, its work, tks God
Thank you very much for the instruction.
I want to put my phone back to factory, as it was out of the box. I have done a few things but when it starts up, the keyboard is missing and all the stock Apps are missing.
Can someone provide me with a step by step guide on how to put it back to stock Android 7.0
Cheers
what i did was reboot to recovery (twrp) if you can somehow, and plug in to computer and use adb to reboot to bootloader. adb reboot bootloader
from there i hold down power and volume up (keep plugged in to computer). It should boot to stock recovery and you can connect the phone to wifi and download stock.
I was on Lineage and it was working great I just wanted to go back to stock 5.0 emui. This worked for me after I screwed around for a day trying to figure out how to get back and I sort of stumbled into it.
It was stuck on the blue Honor Screen immediately after for the first boot forever so i actually held down power + Volume down I think until it rebooted then immediatley Power Button + volume up and factory reset it again. This did it and booted it up back to 5.0.
the only thing is my bootloader is still unlocked. Back on emui 4 this sort of method would lock it up as well as unroot and put everything back to stock but it doesnt lock the bootloader back up at least on mine. hope this helps sorry if my directions suck this is my first time posting.
For me, when I try to download from the recovery screen it comes up with an error and won't download.

That is my problem, too. Didn't find any workaround for it yet and would also be interested!
I am on the US l04 version maybe yours is a different model and uses a different method?
Really difficult to find 100% sure fire answers at least for me with this particular device so I just started to be my own guinea pig and test out things on my own. I also was able to lock my bootloader back by using this command
fastboot oem relock [unlock code i received from honor site]

I am on the FRD-L09 Version. I also have another problem, that my PC won't recognize my Honor8 in Fastboot Mode (both: google's .exe files and the amazing Huawei MultiTool by Team MT).
every ADB Command works fine so far.
Since all downloadlinks for Huawei Firmware from here didn't work for me so far, too, i am trying the original Firmware from hihonor.com. The last time i checked it wasn't offered there until recently.
I am trying to make a SoftwareUpgrade via the Service Menu (*#*# 2846579#*#* tipped into the calling interface). This will execute the Update.app i copied to my sdcard/dload/ folder.
I hope i am not forgetting any procedures before i try to update. Right now my device is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked, while TWRP3.1 is installed.
I'm new to this so I don't know how to share links or files yet or even if thats possible but I used the "Huawei Android USB Driver" I found on one of the posts on this site. I cant remember exactly which one I'm not the most organized person with my files. look around on xda there are links to it somewhere. I'll try to dig around for you here in a few minutes see if i can find the link.

Oh one more thing
in emui 5.0 i found USB debugging always shuts itself off for some reason. So when your phone is plugged in go back into your developer settings and switch usb debugging back on.
I dont know why they changed this it wont stay on for me at least automatically

The USB Driver you mentioned are the ones which can be installed via the Huawei Multitool by Team MT. In the unzipped folder from there, there is a Huawei_Multi-Tool.bat which can be run. It can be used for multiple purposes, even installing all drivers. (except the ones for my fastboot connection obviously, but it also could be a hardware problem. so i didn't report this problem to them).
perhaps it can already help you guys.
I resolved my issue. I followed the downgrade instructions and it worked a treat. It then auto updated back to Nougat.
