hi
I have a lg optimus g pro and i rooted it using towelroot and then I installed "LGRecovery_GPRO_GK.apk" to flash the TWRP 2.8.1 recovery, then i wanted to flash CM12. I got this: "error executing updater binary"
I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620733 but not worked.
After that I read a thread here that someone said install older version of TWRP, I wanted to install this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2455828
Now I just see the TWRP logo and somethings come and phone turns off. And it seems that I don't have any system, so the phone doesn't load. I tried factory reset but not worked.
please help me :crying::crying:
Put your phone in download mode, you can do this by pulling the battery out, putting it back in, keep the phone off, then hold the volume up and down buttons while plugging in the usb, then grab lg flash tools and a .tot file and flash it to your phone, these can be easily found with a quick. Google search, the .tot files are sometimes ziped but they are big, arround 2gb, so you may want to keep the phone off while downloading one, i hope that was clear enough,

The problem is that I got a .tot file, but flash tools just wants a .kdz file which I didn't find.
Also I searched a lot about it. I have win10 64bit, and i don't have usb2 port. but flash tool and b2capp doesn't see my phone because of driver (that can't work on usb3 and win8 and 10. 64bit)
I wanted to install win7 32bit, but it gives me an error regarding UEFI, and if i want to change it, i should wipe all my hard disk

I put my phone on Download mode (vol up,down+usb plugin)
lg flash tools opens lg support tool and it gives me this error: "The phone is disconnected from pc. connect the usb cable and wait a moment. press the retry button to resume the setting analysis process."
I have windows 10 64-bits. and i think this is the problem. and there is no way to install win 32 bits unless I clean all my hard drive which i don't want. :crying::crying:
I tried my phone on a win7 32bits, and it worked. but that pc was so slow, it took 50 minutes to install drivers, and then I had to go. so I left it.
Is there any way to install recovery from adb? or rom?
I can get into recovery but the screen is black, when i get adb push ls, it shows me folders. it means it's connected. the problem is that i can't mount data. gives me "no such file or folder"

you could sideload a recovery, you can get twrp or phillz in zip forms...

Hello,
I'm looking for help as I have exhausted all of my search on google and xda developers and the answer doesn't seem to be there. I'm afraid I might be unable to get out of this one.
I have a huawei ascend P6-U06 I bought it and it came with the international firmware, I had rooted it and flashed miui v5 into my phone, everything was fine but one thing, I was unable to use themer, so about 3 days ago I finally decided to flash omni rom.
I downloaded omni rom and installed CWM recovery and once into the system I selected the zip from my sd card and flashed it, only to find that the phone would not go pass the first screen (stuck in boot and could not be shutdown or anything)
Since I did not do a TWRP recovery (and I don't know how, I'm just a beginner) I was unable to do anything other than the "3 button method" so I looked and found that I could put the UPDATE.APP file on the dload folder and it should work, so I tried it and the UPDATE.APP firmware version is the B125, all good I think this was the Chinese version but it had English and other languages as well, but Chinese seemed to be the main one.
Anyways I had the phone back and it did an update, after the update everything was working fine, I deleted the dload file from the sd card, also I saw that the "system" or the phone itself created a dload file on the internal storage but then once I had themer on the phone I saw myself that I hated the emotion ui and in the first place that was the reason I had put miui into my phone, I still wanted to try omni rom and persistently I tried a second time.
Now this time since I already new that I could just do the dload thingy I thought (what could happen) so I tried again with CWM to flash the omni rom (the latest version) but it gave me an error saying something like the installation was aborted or something like that.
So I went back to having the phone stuck in boot, I put the B125 UPDATE.APP and created a dload folder on the sd card, but when doing the "3 button method" the system gave me an error, I tried downloading the B122 and the B132 and also the B510 but although I have put the UPDATE.APP on the dload folder it just doesn't do it's magic like it previously did.
Now I don't really have money to buy another phone, if I did I would just buy another one (I like the p7) but I don't so I need to fix this issue otherwise I don't have a phone.
The error I get first it gives me some sort of error which disappears once the Android system recovery menu comes up. then the only thing I'm able to see says:
Checking Module MD5RSA.. OK
Checking Module CRC.... OK
Checking Module CURVER.... OK
Checking Module VERLIST....
Huawei SD card update fail.....
cust copying files...
copy cust files successed!
===================
FAIL
===================
Please help me, I'd appreciate if you can do your best explaining as I'm dumb in this matter, (just a beginner as said before) Also I'm attaching a picture of the error message being received when entering the system recovery through the "3 button method"
And as I said on the tittle, I will pay whoever helps me to solve this issue, I need a step by step (with a good explanation if possible) on how to fix it, I will pay $60 via paypal to the person that provides me with the solution.
Thanks for all of your time, I DO appreciate your help and if you have any questions please just ask! I really need to fix this!
Ok, first of all, your picture shows that you already have the KitKat recovery.
Which version of B510 have you downloaded? Is it the update.zip? I'm assuming it is...
Please download the complete update package from here: http://www.huaweidevice.ro/user/con...001C00B510_Firmware_Android 4-4_EMUI--2-3.zip
That is the official, and full firmware update from Huawei Romania.
Once your download has completed, unzip the zip file, and copy the dload folder onto your sd card.
BEFORE placing your sd card back in your phone, try the 3 button method again. You should get into recovery mode, then do a data/factory reset, and clear cache.
Once that is done, put your sd card back in your phone, reboot your device, and reboot using the 3 button method.
Hopefully this will work.
If it fails again, you need to try formatting your sd card, and do the steps above again, without doing a factory reset.
Dear op.... Did you solve your problem? How?

I have a question, how can I install TWRP if the adb fastboot is not recognizing my phone? I think it's because I'm missing the drivers but I haven't been able to find them.

Don't you just need Hisuite, the driver who comes with the phone when you plug in your USB cable? That made asb fastboot to recognize my phone at least.
You don't need ADB, only fastboot. Shut down the phone. Then hold the Vol- button and plug in the usb cable. Release the button after the you see the AscendP6 logo - now you are in fastboot and can flash TWRP. Windows Update should install the drivers (I've never installed HiSuite), just let it search online.
First delete your sd card to FAT32 not NTFS and put update.app to dload folder. then dowbload: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2765202
Power up your phone with volume down. and use Huawei tool kit from that link. select KitKat , unlock bootleder first from dropdown menu, then install stock recovery.
And try to update from stock recovery "3 buttons method"

Hey so far this is the most promising option I've gotten, the only problem is when I go to unlock bootloader it's giving me an error that says "error phone not connected" I've tried getting the drivers from many different ways, one from the hi suite, another letting windows look for it, the other one was I downloaded a .exe named "driver tools" but it doesn't work either, when I connect the phone it does make the sound just as when you connect any device on USB but other than that it doesn't recognizes it on the huawei toolkit. Any ideas?

I've tried with the hi suite, downloading a .exe driver named "driver tools" and having windows look for the driver, but it doesn't recognizes it, I mean when I connect the phone it does make the sound when you're connecting something but other than that the adb is not recognizing the phone.
I had a similar problem but for me it would say verlist fail. However you should try this anyway if you haven't already: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52744051&postcount=23
What is important is that you use the recovery in that specific post. That's what fixed it for me.

Hi there, I recently bought an used unlocked LG G PRO E988 (made in korea) version. I rooted it. I tried to flash a custom rom but got stuck in boot loop with a security warning saying "SECURE booting ERROR!! Cause: boot certification verify" But while booting if I kept the volume up and power botton pressed it would give me "SECURE booting ERROR!! Device is unlocked so booting success" , However i could not get into the download mode no matter which ever key combination i tried. Finally pressing the volume up ,home key and power botton at the same time while putting back the battery on i ran into recovery mode and flashed a new rom "sphinx" and it was working fine, though I kept getting the "SECURE booting ERROR!! Device is unlocked so booting success" while booting up. I installed the Philz touch recovery while installing sphinx rom but day before yesterday I wanted to install the default cwm recovery and flash sphinx again with less apps,so from the recovery mode i wiped dev cache,wiped cache partion (and i think i wiped data/factory reset as well ) installed the sphinx rom again and rebooted from sphinx installation screen where i need to check a sqaure box to reboot. but my phone got stuck in boot loop again and with the same security warning "SECURE booting ERROR!! Cause: boot certification verify" but this time pressing the volume up and power button while connecting usb or putting back the battery didn't change the security warning to "SECURE booting ERROR!! Device is unlocked so booting success" neither could i get into my recovery mode. And i have always failed to log into download mode. I read almost all the threads about how to get into g pro download mode but never succeed. The only screen i was getting besides "hard reset" and "boot logo with security warning" was a screen with this message "Recovery mode,Using this mode, service center can back up and recover your data. Press and hold the POWER key more than 8 seconds to reboot and continue using phone." which would eventually take me to the boot loop again if i kept pressing the power button. sigh ! And at this point my phone was not being detected by my pc. I tried "[GUIDE] Optimus G Pro Full Hard Brick fix" by ricanares, but i couldnt get to download mode so the process failed for me After searching for hours and reading tutorials i found out about pdanet drivers and mtk droid tools. which finally detected my phone in pc only when the creen " Recovery mode,Using this mode, service center can back up and recover your data. Press and hold the POWER key more than 8 seconds to reboot and continue using phone." appears. Using mtk droid tools i tried to use a boot image (from an extracted .tot file)and recovery(from same .tot file) but i was getting an error saying no split boot image found.Tried using extracting a .tot file and sideloading the recovery.bin and boot.bin .Tried pushin and sideloading cusom recovery.apk files and all efforts in vein. For any files i send using sideload my phone shows an error "E:footer is wrong ; E: signature verification failed" Using mtk droid tools i could enter into a recovery mode but i dont think it is the cwm recovery mode. it has fewer options. I am so lost at this point ! I need some expert help ...
Things working
1. Boots into stock recovery using mtk tools.
2. Pc recognizes device as LG Android net phone
3.Mtk tools recognizes the device as LG E988
4.Can use adb sideload options to send files to phone in recovery mode (but phone outputs error as 1st attached image )
5.In recovery mode I can see and go into /cache folder using update from cache option.but theres nothing there
THINGS NOT WORKING
1.Doesnt Boot into recovery mode using physical buttons
2.Doesnt Boot into download mode
3.Cant get into fastboot mode with adb commands
4.Doesnt mount sd card .(tried formatting sd card with sdformatter)
5.Don't have a proper backup of my phone.
6.Can't extract downloaded .kdz files to get the boot.img and recovery.img files (tried using lg p970 rom converter, optimus L9 image extractor and lg extract)
HELP
1) Does anyone have extracted .kdz for e988 that has split boot image ?
2)How can i fix E:failed to mount /sdcard error.
3)How do i get to download mode in e988 ? is it possible that i deleted the mode ?

"However i could not get into the download mode no matter which ever key combination i tried."
Have you tried:
1) remove battery
2) hold down both volume buttons and power button
3) insert power cord while keeping buttons held down
4) download mode is yours to cherish??
And for once you get into download mode: your KDZ! (or more here)
From there to go here and do more things. Things cannot be left undone. They hate that.
" SECURE booting ERROR!! Device is unlocked so booting success"
This is normal once you install a custom recovery. As long as your phone works, ignore.

Thanks for your response. Yes i tried that but didn't work. I tried with and without battery both. actually tried numerous times.Only the soft keys keep flashing and nothing else happen. But i will give it a shot again. Plus the secure booting error has changed to "SECURE booting ERROR!! Cause: boot certification verify"-- is it just because I am back to stock recovery ? If only i could get into download mode life would have been a lot easier !! (finger crossed)

Still boned? The LG Support Tool worked for me once, when I was in a similar situation way back last month when I first began smartphoning.
I was in this *exact* same situation after trying to flash my first ROMs and recovery stuff, but I don't remember how I got out of it. :| ACk!
Yupp still stuck . Will try again later tonigh. Didn't get a chance to sit with it the whole day. Hoping for the best !!

Oh! One thing to remember: always plug your USB cable directly into your computers motherboard USB ports, and avoid plugging into USB hub ports (like via a monitor or keyboard). If a desktop: that also means don't use the ports on your computer system. always use the rear ports that plug directly into your motherboard.
(A couple of times I was able to flash a stock TOT/KDZ via the USB hub on my monitor, but that is not a feat that is repeatable for me.)
This makes *all* the difference for me.

The Why: You can't flash that via the stock recovery. You need to use FreeGee to flash CWM or TWRP.
You can get your system into stock recovery: this is good! Does ADB recognize? If not check Windows drivers. If ADB recognizes it, and you can 'adb shell' into it, maybe I could walk you into rooting and installing a custom recovery via the shell?
1) If not already, have ADB at hand. It is your best friend.

Dude, you are so in the wrong program:
LG Flash Tool 1.8 -- this is what handles your TOTs.
Err, wait, you're on E988? Nevermind, no TOTs for you. I've only flashed KDZ a few times, and I don't recall off hand. :| I think it was this one that worked for me: here.
culot said:
The Why: You can't flash that via the stock recovery. You need to use FreeGee to flash CWM or TWRP.
You can get your system into stock recovery: this is good! Does ADB recognize? If not check Windows drivers. If ADB recognizes it, and you can 'adb shell' into it, maybe I could walk you into rooting and installing a custom recovery via the shell?
Yes I can actually get into shell using adb. and my device is recognized as an adb device in device manager. If u can walk me into rooting through adb that would be awesome. specially if i could install a cusom recovery. I spent a bit of time yesterday looking into the files in my phone through adb. tried to change the default.prop file , and push in a custom recovery, but no luck. and i could be wrong but I think for some reason my internal storage (/sdcard) is not being mounted.and same for my external sd card.
But i highly appreciate your response dear Thanks alot for looking into it.

No doubt, what kind of jerkoff would do that!
Ok... I'm desperate. I don't care if I won't recover any data, I just want it back working.
My d850 G3 was rooted and TWRP was installed but while trying to open the TWRP interface to copy the latest CyanogenMod, when I rebooted the phone with QuickBoot, it got stuck in developer mode. Now nothing else works besides rebooting and the only way my laptop recognizes the phone is when I select "Apply Update from ADB" but it goes into sideload mode and I cannot sideload anything with MinimalADB & Fastboot or with the SDK Platform Tools.
I tried adb push & adb sideload -> LG_G3_Flash2FixStuckRecovery (the zip from the other thread) , from the sdcard & laptop, it doesn't work.
-> last CMmod, cm-12.1-20151209-NIGHTLY-d850 ... doesn't work...
Any ideas on how to save my phone? I don't care what ROM, even if I can get the custom ROM back, it's still helpful.
Forgot to say I was using Android Kitkat... and here's an image with the screen:

I hate to tell you budy, But that isnt TWRP or developer mode, what you have here is, default Stock android Recovery that comes with the phone.. So whoever told you that you have TWRP or whatever you
think was TWRP isnt twrp.. so best bet, Flash KDZ.. go into download mode if you can... One more thing.. Read up on this stuff cause you really dont know what your doing........
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2772199 you will need to download the kdz for your variant. So omit the file from the post and use the one for for the d850. Follow the instructions.
After more research (about 20 tabs opened in chrome with other forum links and tutorials) I found what I was looking for and fixed my phone. I cannot thank you enough guys I didn't know where to search, for what exactly.
I'm still considering installing a custom ROM, though... any complete tutorial (for newbies) for CMmod or something better?
Best of luck! Cheers
You need to make sure you are rooted and have twrp. The recovery you show in that photo stock. And make sure its bumped.
I made a very noob mistake today. I was going to factory reset my Oneplus 3 in TWRP (recovery) and flash back to the stock rom but I accidentally checked off everything to be erased... which erased my current operating system, along with the stock rom I was going to install :crying:
Now im stuck with no OS, phone won't boot, can only get into recovery etc etc
I tried connecting it to the computer and clicking MOUNT in recovery, my PC detects it, but when I try to drag and drop the stock rom it just hangs there and the file transfer progress bar doesnt move.
What are my options ?
The phone is rooted
You can use sideload from twrp. Or you can put the zip you want to flash in a usb and flash it via otg.

Put the OOS you want to install on a flash memory and use it as OTG from TWRP
As mentioned above, sideload is the easiest way.
Simply follow the steps here:
https://twrp.me/faq/ADBSideload.html
You can transfer data from a pc in twrp so you have loads of options
Push it with ADB
Ex- "adb push (input_file_name) /sdcard/(output_file_name)"
I will try adb sideloading, i had tried that method a while back for installing a rom and had issues, i have windows 10.

Try reflashing twrp from fastboot
I had the same problem when I was trying to upgrade to OOS 4.0. The phone was stuck at bootscreen. I powered it off by holding power button for 10 seconds. I turned it on again and booted in recovery mode. Then I connected my OP3 to PC and I was able to copy the .zip file into the TWRP folder. In recovery mode I installed the latest firmware from the .zip file.
Maybe I should mention that the OS I'm using is Arch Linux. My PC instantly recognized my phone.
Hello,
I'm a bit lost, here is my problem:
I have an international LG G3, I switched to LineageOS from official ROM 10 days ago. Everything was working fine, until yesterday when at some point, whithout doing anything special, my phone froze as I hit the Home button.
It froze for quite some time, so I removed the battery and now I have the pleasure, each time that I start the phone to see the great LG logo that doesn't move...
My phone isn't root (didn't install the su addon) and though I can boot in TWRP recovery mode, I don't see any file and all my reboot options mention "No OS".
I tried to sideload lineage to flash the new version but it doesn't work, push neither (and I have no SD - it kept unmounting itself).
I tried to connect with LGUP to go stock, but I guess since it's not root, it isn't recognized, and I don't know how to root it as I can't access it.
So here I am, stuck, without much idea of what to do next, I would be thankful if someone knew how to fix this issue one way or the other!
EDIT: Any try to solve the issue failed as I get the same prompt : Failed to mount /xxxx, or : Unable to mount storage.
Thanks in advance!
I had the same situation like you. Your data got corrupted. There's no way to actually restore your files, at least I couldn't do that with help of my mates. All you need to do is eject your SDCard, wipe every partition and:
repeat all steps for /system, /data and /cache - select only one partition, click on Repair or Change File System and these click on Repair File System then Change File System to F2FS and immediately change it back to ext4 and Repair File System once again.
And then wipe every partition once again.
If you need more help, message me on telegram.

Hello and thanks for your message,
I tried your procedure but for each partition, I get a bunch of "Failed to mount", "Unable to wipe", "Unable to repair".
I don't care about the data, all I want is to have my phone running, I tried to "Format Data" within TWRP, doesn't work either.

have you tried restoring to Stock ROM using LG Flash Tool? as far as I know it resets all partitions so that might be the fix for you
please try once again with this TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-0-0-t3309475
maybe just try [Change File System] to ext4 again? It helped me with my data corruption

Yes, I tried with LG Flash Tool, it's the same as LGUP, in both case my phone isn't recognized (I can see my phone on my computer but it contains nothing).
I can't install this TWRP, first technique I can't find the file in my folders (though I could push it with adb), second i can't do "su".
(with the current TWRP - 3.1.1.1 - I can't change the file system)
if you have sdcard, you can put the file here and then flash recovery.img via recovery

I could now get adb to push the img on data and sdcard, but when I try to install I can't find any partition and the process fail as no partition is specified.
I did the push in recovery mode and could find the files, but when I reboot in recovery mode again, I can't find them anymore.

I tried again to FLash it with the tool, no success.
In device manager I don't see the phone, all I see on the port COM is : Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3), so I guess that's why it never find the phone, anything I can do ?

Thanks for your help,
I tried the 9008 method but it didn't work, I have now som "Kernel crash" error that I don't know how to fix and the the only thing I can do is to access some sort of Download mode (where my screen is black, not with "Firmware Update" written, so the LG Flash Tool doesn't recognize it to flash a rom).

Now I managed to flash something with this qualcomm utility (firmware files extracted from 30B KDZ, all other from 10 version were not responding) and I can have access to either:
- "Firmware Update" screen in DL mode, though I can't flash any stock ROM I found (I tried several DLL and TOT, I get "Model check fail" or some issue with the LAF: my guess is that it may be due to the fact that the recovery I managed to put is 30B and the the TOT I have is 10B so something doesn't work?);
- and on recovery mode I can access to Fastboot mode, but a not very efficient one as for some reason whenever I give a fastboot command it do much, the command run on the computer, then I get the output ". . ." in the command line, and the terminal stay in this state doing nothing...

From the device manager I either can see my phone as LG phone in DL mode, or just as some unknown device in fastboot mode.

You probably missed some steps, with flashing all the partitions, you must flash them in given order, and you must use the same kdz, 10e...try it again from scratch.
Mine g3 is still fully functional, so it's worth a try.
yeah, my phone did fully recover too. where you did you get your stock files? maybe you downloaded wrong files? I mean they're corrupted or something

Yes I followed the order, and finished with sbl1,
Now I can't do it again, I can't connect with the software as my phone is no longer 9008, so I have no idea what to do
