Bricked?, need help - T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers

I was installing the fulmics 3.5 rom with magisk option. The magisk was not working correctly so I attempted to update, but received an error that the image was already modified. So I reinstalled fulmics this time with just super user.
Once in rom, I went to su and clicked the uninstall option and rebooted and was going to flash the magisk zip. However, I am stuck at LG logo when booting up.
My phone launches the LG boot logo, switches to the "cannot check for corruption please lock bootloader" screen and back to the booting animation with the LG logo. I can tell it's the booting animation because the brightness goes down.
I cannot get the phone to go into download or recovery mode. I press volume down and power and upon LG logo I release power and press again. Same with volume up.
Adb or fastboot does not recognize device and USB drivers are installed. I'm assuming this is because it isn't in fastboot or debug mode?
Am I bricked or can I get out of this?

EDIT 3: I used this guide to restore functionality. https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg...-mode-lgup-t3565508/post71239406#post71239406
I'm able to see my phone with LG UP while it is trying too boot. I can't proceed though because it says the model is unknown.
EDIT: Yes, USB drivers are installed.
EDIT 2: I can get into Fastboot now by plugging in cable and holding vol -, but fastboot reboot recovery is not working.

LG D800 stuck on logo, cannot get to download mode or reset

I've been happily running CloudyG2 2.2 on an LG G2 D800 with TWRP. Last night some kind of update came through, and whenever the phone booted up, it would get stuck on Optimizing Android Packages 1 of 1. I couldn't get to TWRP, and if I powered up while holding Vol. Down + Power, I received a screen to confirm reset to factory. I couldn't get ADB or Fastboot to connect, so I did the factory reset.
Oddly, immediately after I did the reset, it dumped me into TWRP. I was able to load a really old stock backup from TWRP. I then went back to TWRP (again by passing through the confirm factory reset screen) and did a wipe to prepare for a CloudyG2 3.3 install. Unfortunately, after the wipe, I found that I couldn't adb sideload the zip file. When I restarted, and boot, I get stuck at the LG screen.
Holding down Vol. Down + Power does not bring up the factory reset screen or enter recovery.
Holding down Vol. Up + Power and inserting a USB cable does not enter download mode.
Even if I power off the phone by holding down power for 10 seconds, the phone powers itself back up after a few seconds. ADB and fastboot do not see the device (though they did previously before the aborted CloudyG2 3.3 install).
Is there anything else I can try to get back into download mode or recovery?
Thanks,
Louis

Bricked. Can't access fastboor or recovery

Hi guys,
my Mate 9 is stuck at the black screen after the Huawei logo screen with the "Your device is booting now..." text. I can't get into recovery mode or fastboot mode. Is there any way to get out of this situation?
Here is what has happened:
I wanted to root my Mate 9 so I first unlocked the bootloader and flashed the TWRP recovery.
But after flashing the recovery I couldn't get into the recovery. When I pressed the button combination the phone was always stuck at the screen with the "Your device is booting now..." text. But when I booted the phone normally without pressing any button it would boot just fine past the screen.
So I thought I should try to relock and unlock the bootloader and install the recovery again.
When relocking and rebooting the phone it went to the Huawei Updater mode or eRecovery mode, I don't know which one. It wanted to reinstall the firmware or something. But that failed so I thought maybe I should flash the stock recovery so that it can install the stock firmware.
Then I unlocked the bootloader again and the phone reboots automatically and wants to factory reset the system but it gets stuck at the black screen with the "booting now" text.
Now I can't do anything. It doesn't boot normally, can't get into fastboot or recovery mode. Can't do anything, basically.
Is there a way to save it or am I game over now?

Booting to recovery (TWRP) using power + volume up with USB plugged in goes to eRecovery.
Power + volume down is fastboot, regardless if you have USB plugged in.
This mode should always work.
Power + volume up and down goes to the auto update screen.

Wow, I just wanted to say that no combination works but somehow it went into bootloader mode.
I tried the power + vol down or vol down + plug in usb but that didn't work. Now I pressed vol down + power and plugged in and plugged out the usb cable repeatedly. Maybe it worked because the battery was empty, i don't know.
I had a root Huawei and have now managed to have gotten it exchanged and will not be rooting this device for a while. While I miss out on rooted apps the speed and performance of this device for me outweighs having root access.

[Bricked] BLN-L24 Can't boot nothing

I was on Elite ROM v7 and I wanted to go back to stock with the official Honor 6X Rollback Package but failed. Now the phone stuck at boot screen. I can't boot into fastboot, no twrp, no stock recovery. 3 button dload method wont work any more. If I hold the power button long enough, the phone will reboot with two vibrations and go right back to "this device is booting" screen. I waited till the battery is depleted and tried every possible combination again, including volume down+plug in usb cable connecting to a pc, still boots into the same screen.
Here's what I have done that caused the brick.
1) while in Elite Rom v7, I power off the phone.
2) dload official intermediate package.
3) dload official 6.0. (it succeeded followed by restart and user reset.
4) the phone then stuck at the blue Honor screen.
5) I force the phone to reboot by holding the power button, the phone entered stock eRecovery. I did a factory reset. The phone still stuck upon reboot.
6) I reboot the phone to fastboot mode and unlock the bootload, after this step, the phone stuck at "this device is booting" screen and wont boot into anything else.
When looking back, I guess between 1 and 2, I should have booted into twrp and format data, which is ecryted.Since I missed this step, it caused the system hung at step 4.
I have a similar problem i thinck it has to do with the warning message i waited until battery was empty and then i got a little different screen wich allows you to enter recovery or boot the device if you get this screen booting will work.
In my case i get the broken screen only if i reboot if i shutdown i get the wirking screen. But my problem is a bir more tricky because the recovery dosent work properly it gives my the option o download stock rom and recovery but it allways failes wehn fetching package info...
The other option i get in the recovery is to shutdown or reboot nothing else
And i can't use fastboot because of the reboot problem...
Using the hardware keys dosent work too...

Follow this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/how-to/how-to-to-stock-emui-5-0-flashing-twrp-t3679985
Got the solution
After the battery was empty it booted into a little different screen wich i was able to boot from, then i downloaded the firmware and put it into dload folder on external sd. Next i force updated by holding [volume up] [Volume down] and [Power button]. Now i have a working recovery boot and Rom. Everything is stock and the bootloader is locked again.
I discovered this this morbign and didnt had time to answer earlyer sorry for that...
Someone asked because of the bootloader the only thing i got was this broken screen didnt react to my input, cable plugged in plugged out. Maby the warning screen comes before everything or there is not enough time for the timout or whatever... The important thing is that you can fix it that way!:laugh::victory:

Stuck at TWRP Loop!

My phone got stuck at TWRP Loop!!
So, there is what i did...
I flashed Samsung a7 firmware ANDROID 10 [download from firja] and it worked. I needed to root my phone and tried Magisk new app.
But, with new Firmware I did not had TWRP installed, so I flashed TWRP with oden as instructed in this POST [BTW, I followed first method , not the *****OREO ROOT INSTRUCTIONS:***** ].
** TWRP version is 3.2.3-1_ashyx **
After that my phone got stuck at TWRP Loop.
Phone will not boot to normal , only BOOTLOOP to TWRP. Most of the time TWRP doesn't load fully and TWRP screen seams Black Line [in horizontal axix, MY phone display fine, it seems come from The TWRP!! ].
So, I am kinda STUCK at this TWRP Loop and TWRP load at it LOGO nothing more.
I tried every possible KEY combination to get to the fastboot mode/download mode but failed.
One or TWO time I was able[or it did it self!] to boot into TWRP (TWRP loaded but , with BLACK line) , i tried to enter download mode but failed.
So, what can i do?
-Thanks
I got the same problem, i did this: Power + volume down next when it restarted fast pressed v+ and v- and plug in the cable before it showed samsung logo

Nothing to worry and don't panic,
I've been facing problem like this.
To enter bootloader / download mode. With USB Cable plugged You must press and hold Power + Vol Down button then count it for 7-8 seconds, after that immediately release Power button, and press Vol Up + Down. Repeat this step if fail. U will see Download mode.
Regards.

You hold volume down + power button for 7 seconds and phone will be power off.
Then you press both volume buttons (vol up + vol down) and plug in cable what is connected to computer, this pusch you to download mode of phone.

Hi, Bennie from Holland here, with the same problem: tried to flash Twrp to the Samsung A750FN and now stuck in not working Twrp logo, flashing for 2 seconds and further a black screen< The fastboot using Odin can be used via the method described by szimin22, bur the adb fastboot gives no response. Does someone know the correct trwp version for this mobile or a firmware file that can be flashed by Odin?
A Week Later ...
i have installed on the a7 the firmware dated okt 2020 and i can install without any prob trwrp or PBRP! but the machine goes into bootloop again. The only thing which seems to be resolved is a normal functional recovery. Now the return to the phone itself and we are home! any suggestions, pls give us a chance to not smash the a7 through the kitchenwindow

TWRP's Logo is flashing and no access to fastboot

Today i wanted to install TWRP, so i unlocked the bootloader and flash :
- TWRP-3.5.1-guacamole-Nebrassy-3.img
it worked and then in TWRP i installed :
-wrp-installer-3.5.1_9-0-guacamole.zip​but then it restart and now the phone is stuck with le logo of TWRP which is displayed 0,4sec, and disappears just after for 5sec, and then it reappears... I can turn off the phone but it imediatly reboot to twrp, and even if a do Volume up or down + Power button, it always brings me to twrp.
So i'm stuck in a twrp bootloop without access to fastboot or the system.
If someone has an idea i will be very glad.
Thanks
Finally I used the EDL mod with the special cable. Worked well
