unbricking not working! PLEASE HELP

okay im following the unbricking guide in the General forum. i have an at&t p930. had cwm and flashed a rom but didnt format /system. thus i bricked my phone, boot loop galore. i have all the necessary files. everything with v10f goes great and when the phone reboots i get the pink LG Optimus LTE boot screen. only problem is that it freezes there, the candy cane loader stops moving and it just chills there forever... please please please help me get this thing going. its a company phone and i have no option but to fix it myself.

I am right there with you-absolutely nothing under the sun has worked. Finally got the updater to work and am stuck on the Optimus LTE screen just like you...even tried two computers, tried doing the .kdz about 12 times now, reboot, etc...stuck

ya im freaking out. i have to fix it. its not my phone, its my companies haha

Did you flash the V10f or the V10i? The only v10f I could find was a small file...well much smaller than the i. I've tried flashing the v10i about 15 times now with no luck...it obviously flashes as the boot logo shows up but thats where it stops.
Also when I get it to go into recovery it has the open box and arrow with the android guy and stays on that screen for about 10 seconds before it goes onto the LTE screen where it stalls.
Does that help anyone?

same thing for me exactly. my v10f file was like 400 mb, my v10i was 350ish. ive tried em both, neither work. same thing for me when i go into recovery as well. on the thread for debricking the last poster said he found the correct v10f file and will upload it tonight, maybe itll work being that the hotfile server or whatever Manillion used doesnt work.

The SU640 ROM will not work on the Nitro HD, much the Nitro HD ROM will not work on a SU640. I found this out earlier this evening.

Might you be able to share a link to the appropriate kdz then? I think we've exhausted the resources currently available especially considering megaupload is dead. May the schwartz be with you...

The V10i_00.kdz is 482,617,504 bytes
MD5 is: 12962DBC591D354D2E35FB3EA84AC032
Make sure you got this one.

That's the size of the one I have...not sure what the MD5 is but I believe it to be the right one.

ya it worked! i used the v10i rather than the v10f. worked first try. im in cwm restoring from nandroid as we speak thanks vano

as they always say, "another satisfied customer". LOL!

If the v10i is rootable now, I'll just update my guide with a link to download the .kdz directly from LG (I'd been having trouble reuploading the v10f .kdz anyway because my internet connection is flaky). What I'm gathering from all this craziness is that there may be bad .kdz's floating around because the unbrick method I used has eventually worked for pretty much everyone, albeit with some teeth pulling for a few people :s. Either that or people are flashing the phone wrong, but I'll give you guys the benefit of the doubt lol. I'll be updating the guide with screenshots provided by [email protected] in a bit.

Awesome man glad to hear it...I'm still stuck on the Optimus LTE screen...tried even more times to flash it and still not working

Is there anyway to format whatever might be on my phone? As in do whatever I can to start as fresh as possible?

The best way to reformat everything and start over is to just reflash the .kdz from download mode. But since I know you've probably done that a couple times, it's possible your .kdz is corrupted.

Any other options? Ive redownloaded numerous times from different sources (even lg) and still no cigar...just doesn't make sense...

Got it-thanks everyone for your help. I didn't have CDMA selected in the R&D test tool-straightened that out and am off and running. Thanks again!

I would only download it from LG or if someone has the v10f they downloaded from LG.

Infinite Bootloop

Hey guys,
I've never had any real problems with any android phone that I've had. However, I have been running Liquid Beta 2 on my nexus for over a week now and it seemed to be running great. I did see a few random reboots every now and then but thought that might be due to it being a beta.
Today it seemed to escalate to a new level. I turned on the torch in the pulldown bar and as soon as the light came on the phone restarted. However this time it was never able to start back up. It got about half way through the boot animation and started over and will continuously do this.
I can still boot into recovery so that is good news. I have tried restoring previous roms that I had backed up for just in case and they ran into the exact same problem. I have also tried wiping everything and then installing a fresh rom that I had on my phone and again, ran into the same problem.
At this point I am clueless and really have no idea what to do. If anyone can perhaps share some advice or give some suggestions, that would be great and I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks guys.
edit: Not sure if it matters but I do have the Verizon branded GN.

Make sure you are wiping data, cache and dalvik.
Make sure you didn't get a bad download on the rom you are trying to flash.

I am running stock kernels and have never installed any non stock kernels as stock seems to run just fine. I have wiped everything completely and I've tried two different roms and get the same problem. I don't think it has to do with it being bad downloads. Thank you for the advice though guys. Anyone else have any input? I may just have to go to the verizon store and see if I can exchange it out.

Dude. I had that too some weeks ago and had the problem that I encrypted the phone, which made me not getting into recovery mode. I downloaded a fresh restorer rom from samsung. After everything was fresh I never saw the failure again.

DO NOT CONTACT VERIZON. After unlocking bootloader, your warranty is voided. Verizon will not be able to help you.
@OP: You can always flash back to stock using stock images provided by google via fastboot with the link Geezer provided.

[Q] GSM Galaxy nexus Bricked -REWARD

I know i have another thread but its changed. My galaxy nexus is gsm and my brother accidentally flashed verizon stock on it. Now my nexus can only go in download mode and fastboot mode. I have tried flashing stock using odin and fastboot however it goes back to the google logo and just stays till it dies. I also cant access recovery mode because it goes to the google logo. 30 dollars reward thanks

Boot to the bootloader (Fastboot/Download) and give us the information on the bottom. Also give us the link to whatever you're trying to flash. I'll dig up the return-to-stock thread and see if I can't walk you through it. Gotta save that Nexus!
Also it'd be easier if you got on IRC. You can find a lot of us (including me) on irc.freenode.net in the channel #gn so stop on by!
Here's a link if you've never been there: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=gn&uio=d4

Wug's Toolkit???
have you tried Wug's Toolkit???
I've bricked mine for the same reason for flashing a GSM rom alpha state on a LTE Nexus.
All I had to do was hit the restore button. And it was fixed in ten minutes. I was able to save my data thanks to dropbox. Cuz I just so happened to back up my data there a lot by saving my recovery back ups
But your case is different. Use wug's toolkit and ATTEMPT to save your data by using the backup feature. MAYBE u can still recover your apps. Maybe you broke your CWMR and damaged the system.res or something. So just flash stock+Unroot. As long as you can fast boot I think you can fix it like me.
Give it a try if you have not done this yet. And let me know how it out. =p
Hope it works for u just as well as it did for me.

could you gimmie alink for that toolkit

Unbrickable
Also you can't truly brick a Nexus device. ESPECIALLY a GSM variant.
So you can fix this. I'll try to find another way just in case this way fails. but also there is a tool on the right side of the panel do the Wug's Toolkit panel. Never actually used them, but maybe it can make your phone work again without even having to flash stock+Unroot.
But again I'll try to find a another method of how this can be fixed. Hopefully someone has a tool to fix this.

Sorry. XDA won't let me post a link. =/
Since I just registered and all but don't worry I'm experienced with this stuff.
Just type Wug's toolkit v1.3 Galaxy Nexus and it should be on Android Central
. Hope this saves ur $400-$600 google device. =p
Know how u feel on this.
---------- Post added at 05:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 AM ----------
This should work because I just read the website and it says that if you flash stock+unroot it should unbrick your device. And maybe an OEM lock is required but your a GSM variant so I dunno since u came out of the factory unlocked.
If you were to fix your Nexus Device u don't have to do your $30 reward.
1. I'm 16. =p
2. Don't have a way of receiving money except by mail, which is a big hassle of nonsense.
3. Just wanted to help since I know how u feel.

Wrong device forum but I'll try to help you anyway... Couple questions first... Have you rooted the phone? Have you installed a custom recovery partition?

sorry i am a little new to forums. yes my phone is rooted and i dont believe i downloaded a custom recovery partiton. to be honest im not to sure what that is... thanks for trying to help buddy.

Ok... By your answers then I know you kinda screwed, but not quite dead... what happens exactly is that you removed the main launcher, the interface between you and the device... if you say that it reboots, not much we can do here be cause we may push a launcher APK to /system/app (generally, there is where the "system apps" are located) and see if phone lives again, but as it is rebooting not sure if it can be done... Have critical info in the phone? If not, you can restore it to factory state!
Here is a external guide to restore the device back to factory state: http://www.lg-phones.org/how-to-downgrade-lg-optimus-c-back-to-stock.html
Additionally, you can check some other info in this post (not quite your case but sometimes other problems have some clues to resolve main problem): http://www.cricketusers.com/cricket...tboot-mode-started-udc_start-3.html#post12007

There is one last option... Researching...
---------- Post added at 06:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------
Damn, no fastboot mode (at least you can't boot into it)...
Anyways, there is nothing worst than haven't tried at all... Do you have the Android SDK installed? Check http://developer.android.com and install the SDK; also download a custom recovery from here: http://unleashedprepaids.com/media/MS690/recovery.img... Once done that, remove battery from phone, replace it, in a command prompt (or terminal if using Linux), write this command "adb shell", just write it, don't press enter yet. Connect the phone to the PC and turn the phone on, while booting, press enter to the command and follow the guide here: http://playfuldroidz.com/wiki/index.php?title=CM74OC#How_to_Install_ClockworkMod_Recovery: as fast as you can (copy/paste preferably)... if everything went well, now you have a custom recovery and you can backup the mess the phone is at right now (BACKUP, really, do it)... download and install any new custom rom and you are good to go...
Let me know how it went...

thanks so much havent tried yet but that route sounds like it might work. i am a little confused in some areas but after i read it over and over i will comprehend it a little more. i will follow step by step and let you know how it turned out. again thanks buddy. you brought some light into this dark matter.

The worst case scenario is using the KDZ updater.You can google all info on that

Chinese BML S4 stop on android screen after boot

Dear friends,
I'm new here...i have been hours and hours checking and studing the forum but nothing clear i got.
I have seen people with similar problem but nobody show a solution.
I got to root the phone and delete some apps i didn't need. But in some moment i deleted some file relationed with the launcher, i think.
Then, the screen turned black and when reboot the system all reboot correctly until appeared on the creen the words "android" with a little moving and that's all. The system don't reach the next pass and the launcher don't load.
I tried to wipe data/factory reset on android system recovery but nothing happends...i reboot the phone and the load system stop on the same image.
I don't know if i need to get the update.zip file to recover the phone or i need to install a rom.
Any idea? What can i begin for?
Thank you in advance

I can get start the phone but only can see calls, messages and camera applications. Home application is a black screen.
Anybody knows this mobile? Any web to find information or roms for it? Any launcher i can install from pc? Because google play aplications don't install automatically.
Only i know this is BML S4 but don't find any information about it on web.
Thanks you!

Bml s4 rom
Help me! I can not find the rom (format "pac") for my phone. And 'an imitation of samsung s4.

BML-S4
I have your exact same problem. You solved? I do not know how to do, I can not find the ROM. If you have news let me know. Hello

Hello together,
colleague son have the same phone. The phone was running with android 4.1. I dont know what happened then.
The phone dont start. Only black screen. Can i root it and make a new firmware on it ?
Where can i find a new firmware and how i do it ?
Thanks a lot.
micky1067

Press both volume down (or up I do not remember) and power. The phone goes into recovery mode and restarts. Hello

@falconeroap
Hello.... thnaks for your advice. But I have do it very often. No reaction.
Or how long i must hold the buttons ? Maybe the phone is broken.

The first thing to do is to remove the battery for at least 15 seconds. Once this is done, then follow the steps that I've described. Hold the keys down for about 10 seconds. If the phone works should come on. Have you tried changing the battery?
---------- Post added at 01:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 PM ----------
What happened to you has happened to me too. The only way to restart our phones is to find a rom format "PAC" with its "FDL" files. If you can not find the ROM (firmware) we can share our phones. The procedure is very simple.

I know this way. I have also change the batterie. No chance. But i will test it again. Normaly the phone has no recovery when you buy one, or ?
I think is a trouble with the electronic, maybe.
but thanks...

root bml s4
Mauricio, there is a program that allows you to root your phone but simply advise you not to do it. My phone does not work anymore just because I uninstalled a system file ... If you want the procedure and the program will send them to you but you have to promise to send me the firmware (which you can obtain from the phone)

Rooting Chinese BML phone
Hi Falconero, thanks for your reply.
I would appreciate you giving me the program/procedure to root my phone.
You´ll see, this phone has to little internal memory, so I decide to delete some preloaded apps
and then install those I really need on the sd card.
Thats why I need to root it.
Concerning the possibility of erasing some system file, I hope I´ll be deleting things as facebook app , etcetera.
Regarding the sending of the firmware of my phone, no problem. you just tell me how to do it and I will send it to you.
One more thing what do you need the firmware for?
:good:

Bml s4 root permissions
Mjp9119 Hello, I read your message just now. The firmware can send it to the following email address: mattei.flash @ libero.it. For root permissions, no problem. I have the program on another laptop that has taken my brother. Tomorrow night or Sunday should be back and I can send you the program. It 's very simple to use but be careful! Hello and thank you.
---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 PM ----------
if you can not send the file via e-mail try to load it on https://rapidshare.com/home. You register, upload it and send me the link.
Hello, falconeroap

Chinese BML S4
Hi again Falconero,
As I said before I´m a newbie, I don´t know how to extract the firmware, you tell me how to do it and I ´ll send it.
What caused your phone to malfunction?
Was it the program by itself or was it you deleting some required file?
Thank you
