Hello again.
I am trying to do the S-Off Precedure With Alpharev, using the noob proof guide and i am stuck. I have downloaded the Alpharev software and on the guide it says you can either put it on USB or burn it to CD... As i have no blank Cd's I have put it onto a USB, but it doesn't seem to be working??
Can someone please help??
no need to waste a CD or USB stick space, try to use a virtual machine instead, much more easy to use

It depends on whether your computer is able to flash from a USB drive. I also had some issues with it. I eventually just burnt it onto a CD.
i burnt it on CD as well
make sure your PC BOOT SEQUENCE is setup to boot from CD driver first not HDD
my main pc was setup to boot first from CD driver. so i had no issues or setting up to do.

I was trying to boot my laptop from USB, for a different reason, and eventually found the option under HDD as an option, rather than a stand alone option.

Hi,
Did you make it a bootable USB stick ? Try with this: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/. "burn" the image don't just copy it.
Also be careful with your USB device size. I've tried making a 16 Gb stick bootable and it didn't boot. It worked perfectly with a 2 Gb USB stick.
When you computer boots press F2 or F10 (whichever is your boot sequence selector) and select boot from USB.
Good luck !

I have 2 EVO 4g's... I have successfully rooted one of them, but when I try to start on the second. My windows machine will not recognize the second one. I boot it up and select Fastboot, connect it to my computer and it does not recognize my device. Just gives me "Unknown Device".
If I do the same things with the phone I already have rooted, it successfully loads the HTC Fastboot driver.
I need some help in trying to figure out what is so different about the second phone.
Ok, seems that there is an issue with the 2nd phone that it isn't recognized in any way via usb. It won't even get recognized to be mounted so that I could copy media to the sd card.
Is there any fix for a broken usb port on the evo?

Complete replacement can be done or re-solder the port itself. Be careful in selecting who does it or how it is done as this could ruin your board if done incorrectly.
I have also seen a complete replacement done and the EVO charged great but still would not sync. Problem was that the tech used wrong part. So be sure it is a new port for an HTC EVO.

So I only have access to a mac and I want to get my One rooted. I have tried creating a Live usb disk with ubuntu on it by following the instructions on Ubuntu. After I put the converted file onto the usb drive, the mac tells me that the inserted device is not recognized. I've tried this 4 times and the result is the same. Also when I restart the mac and hold the alt key I don't get an option for booting from usb. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I only use Mac, I really dislike Windows, but I went the boot camp route to s-off.
Not sure about the boot from USB not working as I have never had a problem with it but here is a page that explains the requirements, hopefully it is helpful

i had rooted my htc one verizone than I installed the original htc recovery then the phone died....,autamitically rebooted over and over without an access to the OS or the booloader..
Somebody did for it a jtag, then it can boot into the boatloader but never identify the usb(2), so i cant install a custom recovery or get access into the phone, i tray reinstalling the latest htc driver but still no response,
Please help me to recover my phone
my phone is rooted and s-off
Best bet is to RUU to stock so you will get a working phone, then you can add the custom recovery, roms, ect.

Helo experts,,,, where are you... My phone is dying...
A usb otg cable allows you to attatch a usb flash drive to your phone. Rename the ruu zip to PN07IMG.zip and put it on the usb drive in no folders. Then attatch it to your phone and boot to hboot. Hboot will automaticly find the file and prompt you to install it.
You can also try using these drivers to get your pc to recognize the phone. http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/ADB/ADB_Drivers.zip
And here are all the available ruus for the verizon htc one. http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RUUs/

Thanks dear,
I did as you describe in the otg method but unfortunately may phone shows no response at all.
I had already tried to solve all issues of drivers, but also this failed.
Could this be a hardware problem e.g. in the USB port or what??
Make sure the usb drive is formated fat32 and the file is named exactly caps and all PN07IMG.zip. If it still dosent work, its possible it has a bad usb port.

The USB drive and otg cable work fine in my galaxy note, the format is fat32, and the RUU name is exactly as you wrote, so I think the problem in the USB port unless you have another idea..
I would say more than likley its a bad usb port. Does the phone still charge?

Well its somewhat working then. I guess its possible that one of the data pins is messed up. Have you tried cleaning out the port? Not sure what else you can do without a working usb connection.
My LG E980 is bricked. I can access download mode and that is it! I am unable to boot into recovery,

I'm unsure what can be done about this, but I feel like this is better than the infamous QHSUB icon displayed when the device cannot be recovered.

There is never a time when this device cant be recovered. even the qhusb is a fairly simple fix. ill go ahead and make a sdcard boot image tonight. do you have a 32gb sdcard? (or larger) and an sdcard reader, if you have those two things i can make an unbrick.img that you flash toi the sdcard and put in the non-booting phone and it will get you to download mode/recovery mode. ill have to check out what partitions are where as i dont wish to include my efs along with it all .

Happened to me.
1. With the phone on download mode and plugged in the computer; uninstall the unknown device on your computer using device manager. The computer should try to get the drivers for your phone.
2. If it doesn't. Repeat step one and install the drivers first.
That worked for me hopefully I'll work for you.

I do have a 16gb sd card, but I can pick up at 32 gb sd at my local best buy. I have an Asus laptop running windows 8 and it has an SD card reader. I am a little confused (semi-noob) as to how this will work because my phone will boot up, and the led changes colors on the home button for about 4 seconds and then the light stops flashing. The phone is stuck on the LG boot screen, and there is no way out of it but to pull the battery or to reset with power button. Of course no recovery as previously mentioned. I really just want to get back to stock, but I can't manage to get both the windows 8 computers I've tried to detect the phone in download mode. Ever since I switched to the Candykat rom 4.4 the computer wasn't able to recognize the phone, even when the phone was fully functional inside the rom.
I have tried it on my dads windows 7 laptop as well with no dice. Instaled LG drivers, uninstalled LG Drivers, uninstalled device from the Device Manager. I've done everything I could think of. I previously was in a Philz touch recovery, but every rom I tried to flash wouldn't work. I tried to flash another recovery from inside it and then the device bricked like it is now. What a head ache. If you think this method would work, I am more than willing to try it, just unfamiliar with what I need to do on my end.
Okay

I will give your method a shot, but I have done this a lot already. The only thing I can think of is I usually unplug the phone from the computer right after deleting the drivers and uninstalling in device manager. Maybe I should just leave the phone plugged in and see if the computer automatically downloads the drivers, but I don't think it will because I've tried to update the drivers before. It gives me an error code "10" and says the device has malfunction or stopped working This phone has been undetectable via USB since flashing the candykat 4.4 rom. Every computer I've tried (3) and every USB cable (3 again) has displayed it as an "unknown device"

I dont know lg's download mode, kdz, tot etc all that well. im more of a samsung guy. however qualcomm since the s4 chipset has allowed for sdcards that are properly formatted to boot the os instead of the internal emmc. here is a decent guide, just need to make teh image for this device. this will let your device boot no matter how bad it gets you are welcome to try with 16gb, the rule of thumb i know of is as big as teh emmc is use that same size or larger sdcard, however some people have had sucess withs maller, just not many that i know of. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439367
however afaik the only way to reflash teh bootloader partitions is via kdz/download mode so perhaps the sdcard will let you get into that mode and then you can flash, so long as you keep your sdcard like that it will boot fully, but in order ot get your sdcard back you need to repair teh files on your phone .
Thanks

Wow, that sounds awesome. I followed most of that. I access download mode on the device by pressing vol up and down simultaneously and plugging in the usb cable. I am more willing to try this, and if it works I will pay you from my paypal. I guess all I need now are those files to run to the sd card. I read the tutorial you posted for the samsung and downloaded the windows disk manager. I am eager to try this method, though it is admittedly very new to me.. If you can post those files, I will follow the instructions you give and pay you a little bit of money for your help!
I am a broke college student so it won't be much, but I really appreciate your response and information on this method with the qualcomm s4.
Here is the unbrick image. follow the guide for your platform (gunna guess windows) and write this to your sdcard after backing it up. from there you need to restore your partitions by flashing them .

Okay so I bought the 32 gb sd card. Just wrote the .img file you sent me to the sd card.
I powered on the phone and nothing happened, I got the same LG screen where the led flashes and then stops.
I followed that guide, but am I supposed to go to download mode instead of just powering on the device?
I got a little confused by the samsung jargon lol. I just want to know after I've written the unbrick.zip to the sd card
how do I get my phone to recognize the card is there? And once I am able to do that how do I "restore my partitions by flashing them?"
I do have the factory firmware set to flash through lg flashtool, but the phone can't be detected of course due to the usb issue.
Just want to say thanks for walking me through it this far, I feel like I'm close hopefully but unsure what to do next.

you wrote the image to the sdcard? i wonder if its because you still have the low level bootloaders that it may not be booting from the sdcard, normally this is done to fix qhusb errored devices. as for restoring the partitions all you would need to do is one its booted up push the unbrick image to the phone and use rooted adb shell to write it back onto your phone.
Possible hope??

I meant I used the windows tool to write the debrick.img to the sd card. But no dice, the device isn't recognised.
However! I installed a driver clean up tool and now if I plug in the device it is recognized as Android Original ADB Interface.
The LG Flashtools even says the port is ready! But I get the error code "10" "device cannot start, A request for the USB device descriptor failed."
So now I am stuck on that instead lol. This just sucks.
that sucks about the sdcard, it must be because you arent "truly" bricked. sorry i thought it would help ya :/.
What is the driver repair tool you used? I know this thread is old but I'm having the same problem. I was trying to root my E980 and now my computer wont recognize my device. The phone works perfect, its just when I plug it in to the computer it isnt recognized. How can I fix this?
+1
Just wondering if anyone's come across a solution to this besides a sledge hammer... been having the same "Code 10: Device failed to start" when in Download Mode, though Windows finds a driver fine when the phone is stuck on the LG screen... doesn't help much, though, 'cause it won't receive adb commands. I manually installed the LG USB Composite Device driver, which added a modem and a COM port, both of which Windows recognized to be active, but the LG FlashTool USB Viewer showed no open pipes. I'm a relative noob, so please feel free to point out the obvious, like an alternative to adb that the phone can always receive or a way to brick it the rest of the way so the MicroSD trick will work.
I came across this problem like the OP and just wanna let everyone know that you have to use computer with USB 2.0 port then the driver issue would be fixed.
All of the instructions I found for doing this weren't exactly clear, so I'm writing this out in a way that even dummies like me can understand. So, my Nvidia Shield TV got soft bricked when I tried to update my TWRP to this version.
First, you have two options for the cables:
This: http://www.monoprice.com/Product?p_id=9724
and this: http://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=5443
Plug them into each other so they're just 1 cable now.
The second option is to use a USB to micro USB data/charging cable, like the one that it came with.
Here are the steps, read it completely through 1 time before doing anything. I find that makes things easier to understand when you're ready to actually do it.
Install FASTBOOT DRIVERS: https://developer.nvidia.com/gameworksdownload#?search=SHIELD Family Windows USB

Extract the OS Image to your desktop.
Go to the installation folder for Minimal FASTBOOT & ADB and copy its contents into the OS Image folder you just created.
Open a Windows command prompt in this folder.
Make sure power cable & USB OTG cable on NSATV are UNPLUGGED.
Make sure HDMI cable is PLUGGED IN.
Plug the standard USB end of the USB OTG cable pair into a PC.
*** DO THE STEPS BELOW IN THE EXACT ORDER ***
Plug in USB OTG end of the USB OTG cable pair into NSATV.
Plug in the power cable. The next step follows quick.
Quickly touch and hold the power button until the FASTBOOT screen appears on your TV, then release.
Now, go back to your PC.
In the Windows command prompt, type: fastboot devices
Make sure the fastboot device appears.
If you see your fastboot device, then you can follow the instructions in the HowTo-Flash-Recovery-Image.txt file.
I hope this helps. If there's any part that's confusing, let me know and I'll edit it.
Yeah, you guys are awsome, it worked!!!!!
Thanks so much for all your help and advice :good:

Follow the instructions EXACTLY. I have the 16Gb model and mine was doing the same thing as yours.
Just to repeat what others said the back of the shield TV has a microusb port so you don't need a otg cable just use any standard microusb cable you have laying around plug small end into shield TV and big end to laptop/computer
Hi!
I tried but failed. The issue is, that it reboots directly after showing the recovery menu.
Only see it 2 seconds, then reboot. No reaction on menu choices...
I guess it happened when I tried to copy the SD card to another one.
You should be using fast boot to do this. Plus, there's no SD card in the instructions. Not sure what you are trying to do.

Try again without an sd card attached maybe. Also try 'fastboot boot recovery.img' instead of flashing it.

Could be a driver issue? Make sure the drivers are properly installed and working? Try rebooting?
Will these steps work with the 2017 16GB version? Cause I want to have full Android on the Shield but the processes I've seen are pretty confusing.
I want to try this, will this work with the new 5.2 update?
