LG KS20 black screen

Hi,
this afternoon i was trying to flash the ROM of my LG KS20 when i read the combination to enter in the engineering menĂ¹. So i looked a bit through the different menus until i click on "Backlight On-Off" option in the "LCD Test" menu.
At this point, the screen on my LG turned off and now i can see that phone still working but the screen remains always black. For example if I click the power button on the right of PDA, the 2 button turn their light on but the screen remains black.The same is when i push the button of photograph machine...if I wait a few second and push again the button the PDA take a photograph because the flash work and i can hear the sound of shutter.
I try to hard reset the PDA, but all remains the same....what can I do???
Please help me
Thans a lot
Maybe you could try to install a software called "My Mobiler" (http://www.mymobiler.com - it's freeware). With this software you could access your KS20 through your PC and try to revert the settings in the LCD Menu?
thanks a lot....last night I found MyMobiler searching somethings for view the device screen on my desktop. After I installed it on my PDA (with some little problem to give the ok for the installation on PDA), I can see the device desktop and so I do the same procedure to restore the backlight.
So now all works fine.
Thanks
Have the same problem
but i not lucky... can't press ok on the black screen, can you publish screen with instalation on PDA to try locate the OK??
really thanks
On your screen, you should see the standard view of the installation process.
So, when you launch the install from your pc, you have to immagine the screen of the acknoledge of the install. try to push in the left corner at the bottom a couple of time, then you shoud see the today screen on your pc.
Same problem
I have the same problem, but I need to enter my pin, but I'm not able to enter it because I can't see anything...
And I change the USB settings in the engineering menu so I cannot connect with ActiveSync :S
Any idea?
Thanks a lot.

radio upgrade

hi all when I try to upgrade my radio ROM through activesync it says connection error. Then I get stuck in the bootloader, so I try doing it trough storage card then it only gets about 1/6 of the way, and freezes, I have left it overnight and no progress. So then I have to flash a full ROM to get it start up, but I really need a new radio because mine doesn't give me any signal for about a mile were I live
thanks in advance
If you're running xp right click the activesync icon in your taskbar.
Then go to connection settings deselect all options except for the show status icon in the taskbar option. Enable them after the update.
Put your device in bootloader mode manually (Press the ok and power button together while restting from down ) hold the two buttons until the bootloader screen appears, attach your device to the PC then run RUUWrapper.exe.
Hope I could help .

cant disable fast boot

hi everyone, i received today my phone, it seems to be a korean import unlocked for sims but not rooted.
i had a galsaxy s2 for a few years and know how to root and flash a rom, but problem is, on my htc one m8 there is no option to disable fast boot in the battery menu
i looked everywhere on the phone, it's just not there. i looked on the net and somebody suggested CleanFLASH 1.0 just to start the phone in hboot, but can't manage to find the file anymore, links are dead, any suggestion?
thanks
anybody can help with this? I'm bloody stuck without a rooted phone!!!! thank you

Is your main problem not being able to get into bootloader (I don't see how else the fast boot power option would prevent you from rooting)? Just hold the power button until the options come up, select Restart, then when the screen goes black, immediately (before the white HTC boot screen) hold the power down rocker, and don't let go until hboot appears.
Alternately, hold power and vol up to force a reboot of the phone, then when the screen goes dark, switch to holding the vol down rocker.
Why are you worry so much on "fast boot" ?
You don't necessarily need to press power + volume down to go to hboot/bootloader.
I never disable "fast boot". Just simply restart, wait for the downanimation complete (it turn black screen) then press volume down (no holding power button) ... it will go to hboot.
Or you can plug in your device to PC with USB debugging enabled. Open a command prompt from your adb folder, type command adb reboot bootloader
thank you. i've tried all the above all afternoon, including all the tools available but phone will only either reboot, sometimes in safe mode, or reboot regularly.
I think I know what I'm doing. I need to unlock bootloader to root, but this is not possible. When connecting to pc by usb, and using tools, from comand line, computer screen just hangs and nothing else happens. with another program I can only see a tiny "fast boot...." on the bottom left corner of the screen. I cannot basically unlock the bootloader hence root the device.
another few things i notice you may be able to double check.
trying to reboot in standard recovery, the android buddy comes up on the screen, like dead, with "no command" message. then pressing volume up will take to recovery screens, never seen this before.
And last, but not least, checking the serial number from the menu > about phone > status the serial number comes as
0123456789ABCDEF
I checked with HTC support on chat and they basically gave me the registered serial number for this IMEI and told me of course that it is impossible that it has another number as this cannot be changed.
Question is... Have I got a clone here??
edit: sorry about the data, it was not set the apn, now it works. normally used to have automatically apn from sim card, but it's not the case for this phone/sim
I bet you do have a clone, does the phone has a playstore ? Install some phone specs app and see what it comes up with.

Is your about phone (there is no about phone on real HTC One M8, only "about") looks like these screenshots here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54102512&postcount=7 and here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54102633&postcount=8
Then it is a clone

it looks like that, checking the specs i can see a ARM v7 Processor, rev3 and a screen resolution of 1280 x 720...
Unfortunately, I think your device is a "Clone".
thanks guys, i've haven't been rooting for a couple of years, but really thougt something was wrong, terribly wrong. ok, will check back here when i get a real one, if needed.
I think he was talking about "Fast boot" option in battery settings and not the "Fastboot" everybody is talking about here. Nevermind. And yes, that phone is/was a clone

The subsequent responses by clpv5 and myself understood that he was talking about "Fast boot" in Settings.
The only reason the "old" root guides instructed to turn off "Fast boot" in power settings, is that this mode enabled would prevent you from entering bootloader from a "powered down" conditon (since with the "Fast boot" option enabled, the phone was never actually powered down, just a deep sleep mode).
But as we pointed out, you could always enter bootloader from a reboot, since a reboot is always a true reboot. This would work regardless of whether "Fast boot" was enabled or not in power settings.
Although it should be noted this thread is from July 2014, and the "Fast boot" option was removed some time ago.

Thanks. I was looking for an explanation like that; in fact, somehow that's why I ended up in this thread. Though, it's useful yet, since there must be lots of devices still running the 'Fast boot' option due to certain manufacturer's lack of firmware updates and because not every device in need for support out there is actually a new device

oh man, i thought i was the only one !
i have the same exact phone !
my serial number is exactly 123456789ABCDEF !!!
mine is a chinese mtk htc one m8. after hours of search i figured my phone name is alps_htc one m8 and yes my friend, is a fu..... clone !!!
i tried everything ! and search whole bunch of websites and forums like xda and xda itself, nothing happened !
i also get the => fastboot....... every time i try to go to bootloader !
this is something that you guys who trying to help here had to understand, these clone phones settings is completely different from other phones and even the original one ! hold power button then hold volume up or down, doesn't work !
every time it stock in => fastboot..... none of the buttons of the damn phone works and i have to wait until the battery drain ! real pain in the ass !!! because you know, htc one m8 does not have battery removing option, another pain in the ass !!!!!!!!!
i had a another problem too, when i wipe this clone phone, amazingly, the IMEI was gone !!! the phone said "invalid IMEI" !!! witch after hours of search i flashed it with an app from mobileuncle tools, thank to them amazing app allowed me to flash a custom IMEI from a unused phone.
now i use another htc device from the original manufacturer.
a little piece of advice, do not buy a clone phone ! cause it's going to piss you off !!!
and if you don't know how to recognize a clone from a original phone, its simple, just check the serial number, if it's feel weird, just give back the phone to seller, smile, and run out of the store !
thanks to XDA btw.

Note 7 does not boot anymore after Samsung update without warning

hey all,
maybe someone can help make my note 7 boot again
after getting an update yesterday on my note 7 i saw it in message 15 sec to go even i unchecked automatic update it was updated automaticly,
it showed up some sec with that note7 white screen and hangs now with that message in left upper corner in the image here (Kernel Rev. Check Fail Device:1 Binary:0)
tryed all button combination but no success no way to power it down also . Today the display was total black if i charge it the message only appers again
hope ther is away to get it back to get my data
thankyou
Have you tied holding Power key and the Volume down key simultaneously for more than 7 seconds? It should make a restart or power off. When phone restarts try pressing HOME + VOLUME DOWN + POWER you should boot to download mode, then try flashing latest firmware with Odin or use Smart Switch. IF you can't get to dl mode I don't know any other way to fix the phone
thy mk)
i tried Volume down key simultaneously for more than 7 second then the red message dissapears for some seconds and comes back
in that download screen i can go btw it is not rooted or smth just original phone
but that mean to loose all Data at the end? and maybe garanty?

Update firmware with NetOdin

Hi all,
I noticed that the BSA4 update has been released everywhere except Australia. I've been able to get my hands on the firmware files but do not know how to get the watch to connect with NetOdin.
Has anyone been able to do this? I've seen videos of it for the Gear S2 and Gear S3 but there is no way to "restart" the device, only "power off".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
cheers,
Hieu.
Actually nevermind I managed to get it working on my own..
Nice going!
so where you get firmware....and how did you do it...give us a rundown
Hi, have you succeeded? Can you give us a tutorial so that everyone can enjoy it?
Sure guys. Will put something together later today after work. Getting my hands on the firmware took a bit of searching but managed to find it on a Russian forum.
Will provide a run down of the process and links to the firmware (note: only know where to download the firmware for the 46mm and 42mm Bluetooth version, not the LTE).
0. This process will factory reset your Watch, so make sure you've backed up everything you need!
1. Hold down the Home button for 6-10 seconds until the message " Rebooting ... "
2. Quickly press Home three times until the Reboot Menu appears. (The menu is available for about 10 seconds, after which the clock goes back to "Rebooting ...")
3. The menu selection is made by long holding Home button. To go into Download (wireless mode) press the home button until "Download (Wireless)" is highlighted, then hold down the Home button.
4. Download mode will load in WPS mode. Press Home twice to change the mode to the AP.
5. Connect to the access point that appears (for example, SM-R800-a2a5) (ODIN for some reason does not see the device if several networks are connected.)
6. Run NetOdin3 and then set the firmware files for BL, AP and CSC, then click Start (Copying/flashing of firmware takes about 20 minutes).
7. After the files are downloaded, the Watch will reboot. Again, hold Home and highlight & select Recovery in the Reboot menu.
8. The "Setting Up" screen and "Resetting" screen should appear and after that the Watch will reboot and boot as usual.
N.B. It is advisable to check whether you have disabled the function "find my watch" or make sure you remember the password to your Samsung Account
Files can be found here for R800 and R810 (46mm and 42mm Bluetooth / Non-LTE G.Watches) and NetOdin3 for Tizen:
R800XXU1BSA4

Restart both devices and try again is what I'd recommend. And disconnect from your home wifi that you're usually connected to on your PC first before trying to connect to your Watch's access point.

It says that 5 seconds after being connected to network, via WPS or AP it's the same... 5 seconds ? Too slow ?...

I've deleted all data about my home wifi in my computer, and it's the same problem, and if i connect via wps, it is exactly the same, any developper option to activate before ? like Android devices ?
Here is netOdin since Gear S2.. S3...

Nothing. You don't need to activate anything in developer menu. Have you tried on another computer?
My connection is always stable on AP connection mode.

Don't have another computer, that's why i've tested via WPS
