Hi! I've got some questions about e-975.
Firstly - I am noob in LG smartphones, i bought it, because of price and performance.
Secondly - Sorry for my poor english.
I've bricked it today (i don't know what i did wrong, all seemed ok, because while i freegeed my phone there were only "out of space" errors, so it's normal, backup folder was created in FreeGee direction and boot images were there too).
1. When I rebooted my phone after FreeGee'ing , phone stuck on LG logo- is it soft-brick right?
2. I don't want to reflash my phone with loss of all data, is it possible to turn on mass storage or mtp mode in any way? (I would to copy Titanium Backup folder from my phone, i need saved progress of games that i play xD )
3. Do i have to flash this big KDZ file or whether can i use "TeenyBin" for fix my brick phone (i would rather use TeenyBin because of my poor connection speed - 384kbps - yes, you can laugh because of it , but i don't know ,does it will work).
I hope that someone will help me, or if there is similar topic, someone will enlight me and will help my anyway.
Thanks in advance
EDIT:
I've unbricked my phone Moderators, please delete this thread.

Hello there,
it is one of the best phone and the easiest to recover or update in my opinion but,
the issue of no memory card is really something bad for your files in case if something happened to the phone!
i know backup is so important but what if you phone crashed all of the sudden because of an application update and you will enter in the repeated boot loops and you have to reset the phone or flash new software!!
OH! Then your will loose everything in the mobile !
it is really sad it happened to me twice in2 weeks i lost allot of good pictures.
i am sure most of the phone users tried to recover the lost files and no one could do it because the phone is identified as MTP, no logical letter drive can be assigned to the phone!!!
All recover software’s couldn’t find the phone and even when i tried hexcomp from the market to recover the pictures, couldn’t do it.
my question for our developers is there any scripts can make the phone work as usb when it is switched off ??
or ,
is there any way to assign a logical drive to the phone instead of MTP so we can recover the lost files?
I don’t know why Goggle didn’t think of such problem because it happened to allot of people and I am not used to back up my files before because there were in memory card.
I really hope the developers will work on such issue because this is the worst thing I found it in the phone.
I might be wrong but I think you can pull everything off the phone using adb whilst in recovery mode?
Dropbox.
It can sync pictures as soon as you take them.
You can sync files between multiple devices, including uploading and downloading to your phone.
Titanium Backup can be synced to drop box.
Check it out,

i tried Pull before it took long time without doing nothing
i know dropbox and i know what it do
i am asking the DEVELOPERS:
1-is there any scripts can make the phone work as usb when it is switched off ??
2-is there any way to assign a logical drive to the phone instead of MTP so we can recover the lost files?
Thanks

Theoretically you probably could write a CWM script to create a virtual folder and mount that as USB media via CWM. But it would require loading the script to the phone via ADB anyways.
This has also been discussed before:

Hi guys,
I really need your help on this one.
I have searched the forums and the web for a full day now and it seems that I am not alone with my problem here:
Last night I used Solid Explorer to create a subfolder with pictures within the Camera folder. I then tried to move that folder somewhere else on the "SD Card".
But when the process was finished, the subfolder was empty and all the pictures were gone. I could still see the thumbnails in the Camera folder, but when I tried to open one of them, they also all just disappeared!
Now I have read several threads here on xda about the problems of file recovery on a MTP device... Seems like normal file recovery programs will not be of any help in this case.
However I was hoping, that by now someone came up with a solution to this problem, since it affects all users of the GNex.
Some more infos on my side:
The phone runs 4.0.4, is not rooted and not unlocked - everything is stock.
Data back up via Google Plus and Dropbox was not possible, since I am on holidays in Asia with no data plan or WiFi available.
I have switched the phone to flight mode and (hopefully) not written any new data on the storage.
So my questions would be the following:
1) Has anybody yet found a way to asign a physical drive letter to the GNex, making it possible to be recognized by regular file recovery software?
Or is anybody currrently looking into that matter, trying to find a solution?
2) In case that I will not be able to recover the pictures myself through some pc software off the net, will I be able to let some professional have my files restored for me? If I understand correctly, all it takes is a software, that is able to recognize a ext3 or ext4 storage system???
I would really appreciate any help on this matter, because these pictures mean a lot to me and I really hope that I will be able to get them back somehow.
Thanks in advance,
Patrick.
Edit: Argh! First post and I got it wrong already! Sorry, I meant to post this in the Q/A section but ended up posting it in General :-/
I had to format my sd card losing 13GB of information yesterday. This was also due to stupid mtp. Sorry i doubt you can recover.
Sorry to hear that! Until now I could never understand the objections many people seemed to have concerning MTP, as it handled pretty much the same as an USB device when using a Windows PC. But now that I gained some insight in the matter, it's probably the ONE thing I don't like about this phone.
It just sucks to find that out the hard way...
But maybe somebody else still has an idea and can point me in the right direction?
I've had the same problem, and I'm blaming MTP as well. I finally gave up, formatted my drive and replaced MTP with cloud services or transferring files via adb.
While updating to lollipop i accidentally relocked and unlocked the bootloader resulting in a full memory wipe but i had my college work on there so i really need to recover the data lost but upon connecting the phone to the pc it appears as "portable device" which is not detected by recovery tools as well as the android apps as the undeleter root couldn't recover the data i need so is there a way to
1- connect htc one m8 to the pc as usb storage (aka removable disk)
2- another way to recover files
Thanks in advance
The issue is that Android now mounts internal storage by MTP, as opposed to the old Mass USB storage format. So computer's can no longer read the memory like its a USB drive. I think at some point (probably not even for this phone) I saw a method to dump the files in order to perform a file recovery, but it was pretty complicated and looked like a PITA.
You can try some apps on the Play Store that claim to recover files (using the phone itself, not a computer). But I've never used any, can't vouch for them, and don't know if they really work. Also keep in mind, the more you use the phone, the higher the likelihood that the files you want will be overwritten by other data.
Good luck. But in the future you have to remember to backup important personal data before making any major changes or mods to the device. I never fail to be disappointed at how many folks never bother to backup their important data; than freak out about it once its lost. Most of the time, at that point its too late. You should have been backing it up all along. If its important to you, back it up.
Well sir thank ypu for your help i don't think ill be able not to use the phone all that long as well as im now facing that the wifi wont open which is really annoying
My G4 818P went to a boot loop yesterday. Found that it's usual hardware problem for that model.
LG service is ready to replace motherboard for free.
But in that case I will lose all my data on internal storage, whereas I can still see and touch it.
What I found at the moment:
I can't use Recovery mode as the model still have locked bootloader
can boot in *Download mode*, and run `Send_Command.exe` (used in the rooting procedure for LG devices)
The last thing allows me to sent some unix-like commands to the phone body, I can see all the files on the Internal SD (/data/media/0), can even see their content in the console using `cat` command. The problem is that I can't copy them outside the phone. External SD can't be mounted. At least I don't know if `mount` command blaming since STDERR is not available.
In addition:
I found a @jacob019 version (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60557353&postcount=454) of `Send_Command.exe`, hoping to modify it to extract the data somehow;
Another option I found is eMMC Raw Tool, which works with download mode to copy phone partitions on many Qualcomm-based devices, but it doesn't see my phone.
Really appreciate any ideas or help!
Anyone?
Ready to pay for any help. Thank you!
go to a phone service? locally? they have more experience with this kind of stuff and can easily solve it.
Eventually, I found the solution for the problem.
I could download full internal memory by using a hardware module called Octopus (http://octopusbox.com/eng/news/details/572). I hired it in a phone service.
It creates an image file of whole the partitions on the phone. Later you can use it with R-Studio to get access to different partitions and files.
Hi @carmalius - I have hit a similar problem. My H818P has died and not able to boot. Could you please provide details as to how you were able to recover data.
Thanks a lot in advance....
Hey, I already asked that in another thread, but not in this particular sub-Forum.
Whats my Problem:
Mobile Phone does nothing
keypresses dont work (power button)
Odin cant detect the phone
usb-jig cant trigger a start
What i did:
Installing Lollipop
It said: Encryption unsuccessful.
I downloaded a zip which changes the file System. (Cant remember which one, but i read on another site that i would Need it)
So this Programm formatted the drive.
-->The phone seems to be completly dead after a reboot.
I guess the Format Change just corrupted or deleted all data.
So, is there a way to repair it?
Thx
