HELP: Can't boot/enter recovery

Hi all, hopefully someone can help, I was using my phone fine earlier when all of a sudden it just switched off, wouldn't turn back on at all. After trying for a while I've gotten into fastboot. I've tried booting into recovery but no luck.
I've since tried wiping cache - no effect. Flashing recovery - 'FAILED (remote: image update error)'. Boot recovery image - reports success, does nothing.
I'm S-ON, was on a custom ROM. Anyone offer any advice?
Thanks.

Also, the phone doesn't seem to stay turned off now, keeps booting itself into fastboot.

What the model of the phone
Sent from my GT-I9195 using XDA Free mobile app

It's a UK One M8.

After a couple of hours of messing around with no luck it's now just turned on. No idea what that was about. Afraid to turn it off now!
If anyone sees this and does have advice I'd still appreciate it, feel like I'm probably on borrowed time...

have you had custom rom, recovery or root installed before?

I've only had this phone a month or so, rooted it pretty much straight away and installed Viper ROM. Left it alone since then waiting for Lollipop.
If you just mean experience wise, I've rooted all my phones for years, never had one randomly turn off for no reason and refuse to enter recovery though (thankfully), usually when I have issues its cos I did something daft!

Half way through Christmas day the phone froze up, completely unresponsive. Once the battery had died and I could turn it on again I was back to where I was, can't boot up, can't get to recovery, fastboot won't flash a new recovery, get the same failed message as last time.
Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks clsA. I'll take a look at the link...
The phone started working again late last night though, again no reason, just did. I took the opportunity to update the recovery, do a full wipe and install a new ROM. Hopefully I won't see the same issue again, if I do I'll try out that fix.
Thanks!

stuck on LG boot screen not rooted

Hey guys my verizon g4 is stuck in bootloop and im not rooted, i cant get the past the lg boot screen, it stays on their for around 20 seconds goes black and back to lg screen.
I can get into recovery but none of the options do anything ive tried safe mode, usb debug mode i even tried factory reset they all just go back to the lg screen.
I was just watching a video on facebook when it froze restarted and now im stuck, ive been restarting it all day and i was able to get it to boot up twice but it froze again within seconds any help is appreciated

it might be the defective motherboard issue that people are having. you could try reflashing the system, but if that doesn't work you probably need a new motherboard/phone

Not an answer, but an experience.
I have an HTC ONE M8, VZW. I s-offed it and rooted it right when I got it. I began adding some of my google apps and it did what your G4 is doing, stuck on VZW screen.
Since I was s-off I was able to get a recovery in and ready. I was able to get a custom rom onto the phones external sd. I flashed it with the recovery and the flash took, no more vzw screen lock up.
Your experience makes me wonder what VZW is doing to force bootloops on unlocked or rooted phones with their retail products. Paranoid maybe, but I can see VZW deliberately adding code to stick it to rooted users.....................................I say this still knowing that many have rooted the current run of devices without issues...........................
luck

i read about the problems with the motherboard going bad, im assuming thats what happened to mine. Lg sent me a replacement under warranty

Update!
i called verizon they sending me a replacement. just to let you know i flashed 13B KDZ but the bootloop was still there i let my phone on and finally turned on quickly i did a factory reset and booted up normal and its working again. still im gonna send it back. just sharing my experience maybe for other people might work too.

What is the 13B KDZ and how did you flash it? Im having same exact issue.

My G4 tanked over the weekend. I was browsing news and the phone locked up, then it shut off and turned back on. It just bootloops now. If I stick it in the freeze for a few minutes, sometimes it will boot to the OS where it starts to optimize the apps. It will get through about 20 before it shuts off and starts the bootloop process again. I haven't even been able to get the download mode to stay on, and when it does enter download mode, it is not detected by the computer. I think my problem is the motherboard. I'm just hoping that they aren't able to figure out I had it rooted!
I'm still waiting to hear back from Verizon about a replacement.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can flash a stock rom back on this thing to try to save my tail? I am betting not since the phone won't stay on long enough to even flash the rom.

My phone was rooted and got into the bootloop also and I sent it in as is and nothing happened. So I think it would be fine to send it without the stock rom.

They mailed me a new one, no battery, no back. I put my battery, sim card, sd card, and back on the new phone, fired it up. Rolled it back, rooted it, then I mailed the old one back.
Personally, I love this phone, but I think I will be getting a nexus next.

[PROBLEM] Not Bootloop - Please help [Intesting post]

Good evening everyone,
I come to you guys with a very particular problem. The LG G4 in question is an H815T (Asian variant). Let me clarify right now, it was not bootlooping. This one was getting STUCK at the LG logo, it didn't restart to it multiple times, it just got stuck there one day after turning off by itself. It did go into the download mode, though.
It went into the first part of the recovery, but when you selected that you wanted to factory reset, it got stuck there. The only way to get it out of the logo or the stuck recovery was taking the battery out. Interestingly enough, the phone DID charge at the stuck logo, albeit not so much due to the screen being constantly on at full brightness.
An even more interesting fact... I managed to fix it! I flashed the KDZ corresponding to the latest LP for the H815T, after the process was done, it did bootloop. I found the YouTube video about flashing a certain file to deactivate most of the cores and said "what the hell have I got to lose?"
Flashed the KDZ and.... VOILA! It showed the Recovery Android doing its job at Format Resetting !
Something even crazier... The phone booted into AndroidLP, I was worried about the cores thing, but the phone seemed to work at full speed... I was surprised to run HWmonitor and notice that all of the cores were active. The phone was fully working!!! Or so I thought... Now I have TWO problems:
I cannot update to MM. If I try to update from the phone itself (because it does say there's a new version available) I go back to being stuck at the LG logo.
When I make a call the screen goes off... nothing I do will turn it on, and if the other person does not hang up, the phone will remain locked. However, if I plug in a headset everything works normally.
Is there anything I can do about these two problems? Please, leave your comments and questions, I think this phone is pretty weird and I found nothing else like it on YouTube or here on XDA.
Take care :good:!

Idk for the call but for the mm you could try using something like lg mobile update tool... Something like that.
Be warned cuz i dont know if it will bootloop.

Got it! The sensors thing was definitely it for the screen problem. I also read this is very common with many screen protectors in 5.1.
Do you have any ideas regarding the issue updating to MM?

All good, Willy! Even is you're stuck at the LG logo, take your battery out, or it back in BUT DON'T TURN IT ON... Instead, try to access DOWNLOAD MODE. If you're able to do it, you can flash any KDZ you want, but be careful.

Yes ur right using a heavy screen protector will block all the sensors so ya try removing it... No issues in MM u can try OTA through wifi

Bootloop Issue after OTA Update

So my brother updated his Nexus 5X to the new OTA Update of 7.1.2 (probably) yesterday and after the update, it's stuck on bootloop with the Google logo sign.
Phone wasn't rooted.
Bootloader is locked.
Plus with the bootloader menu, I can't manage to open recovery, it just keeps on restarting.
I've searched around and till now I've only seen threads like it has caused to be a hardware issue but how can Google be irresponsible with such unstable OTA updates. Anyway, help would be really appreciated.

The fault does not lie with Google but with LG since the phone has been manufactured by them, not Google. But anyways, there's a LOT of rumors going around about the possible causes of this bootloop issue that has crippled many Nexus 5X's and it's not even the only phone of LG that does this. I've also heard reports of LG's G4, v20 and G5 doing this. This may point to a hardware fault like inferior soldering or other defects. But if you and your brother live in the US you could join the class-action lawsuit against LG for bootlooping phones. The article also contains a link to a survey that you can fill out

Unfortunately, not from the US and there are literally not many LG or Google mobile service centers around here in Pakistan from where I could get a replacement or anything as my brother got the phone from UAE.
Anyway, is there any solution to the problem from which the phone could be fixed manually or is it just a dead end?

Some people tried to fix it by putting it in the oven but if I were you I'd send it to LG for repair. If you got the phone from your carrier then you'll have to send it to your carrier.

Okay so it kinda worked. I just kept the phone in warm environment as it's pretty hot here around 42 Celsius. It popped into recovery menu, cleared cache partition. Restarted, didn't work. Kept trying and phone automatically started although yeah phone's heaten up with low battery and I've put it on charge now.
Update: Crap again, I enabled usb debugging and allowed the bootloader to be unlocked after the phone booted just in case it'd get stuck again and yep after a while, It got stuck, phone restarted and back to bootloop.
Update2: Back on again, is there anything specific I should do in the meantime?

Unlocked bootloader. Flashed old 7.1.1 firmware.

Unlocked bootloader and it already wiped everything. Degraded software so well.
It just has a bootloop with the Google logo.
Not to forget that phone sometimes automatically starts, boots successfully with really low battery of course, I put it on charge and then like after 5-10 minutes, it reboots and back to bootloop.

With similar symptoms I get out of bootloop once with wiping and downgrading from beta 7.1.2 to 7.1.1 firmware which end to other bootloop. But doing factory reset via settings app fix it. Second time with 7.1.2 firmware I get out from bootloop by first turning device completely off, booting up and before it restart turning wifi off. But problem with your brother device might be different.

Nexus 5x bootloop after oreo update

So here is the thing, My Nexus 5x went it to bootloop, and nothing seems to work. the screen just froze, and then It started bootlooping. goes to google logo, the reboots again into google logo. Well since I use to intall custom Rom, I just did what I would usually do, reflashed the image. Didn't help. left the phone for a couple of minutes, it booted, got me to start up, and half way of setup, it rebooted again into bootloop. thought maybe the oreo has something to do with it, ate the oreo and reflashed nougat image. didn't help either. just now after a bit of not using it, it gets past the google logo, but the animation freezes, and back to google. tried factory reset and dalvik/cache wipe, didnt help but now i can not get into recovery.
so basically Im screwed. no warranty, no nothing. now Im just stuck with this ****ty windows phone.
Can you help out your fellow comrade with a bootlooping phone? :crying:

Have you flashed the 4core bootimg/kernel/recovery, or have you done absolutely no research?

The bootloop is purely a hardware issue. There is no permanent fix except to either get a replacement CPU or send the phone to LG.
Disabling the 2 big cores should allow you to use the phone for another couple of months. Don't expect it to be permanent, though.

i have faced the same issue on mine.

This isn't possible if you have a locked bootloader unless you can somehow get your phone turned on... If I am mistaken I'd love to be corrected so I can fix this. If this really is a hardware issue, then I guess I'm screwed. This phone is just over a year old and Oreo has been installed for a couple weeks, so this pretty much blows.

Just send it in for $10 (UPS with tracking #) to LG and they will put a new motherboard in it. I just did it with my out of warranty 5X that I purchased in May 2016. LG show status "In Warranty" and there was not charge. Phone works faster and better than ever. I upgraded to Oreo an it is running great.
If you need a temp phone buy something like and unlocked (tmobile compatible) phone like I did $70 Alcatel Onetouch Idol 3 until you get your phone back. My project Fi sim works great in that phone I just needed a micro to nano SIM adapter which I got for free at a local cell phone shop.

excuse can you please tell me the detailed process of sending phone to lg .

Any help?

continuous reboot after Oreo update
Hi,
I am facing issues with my Nexux 5x after updating to the latest version of Android. I received a notification for software update and I did it and as soon as the update was done, the phone started rebooting continously. I tried wiping the cache, factory reset via recovery mode, but nothing actually works. Could anyone of you suggest me some ways to get it corrected or to get the old version back.
Thanks

Just send it in for $10 (UPS with tracking #) to LG and they will put a new motherboard in it. I just did it with my out of warranty 5X that I purchased in May 2016. LG show status "In Warranty" and there was not charge. Phone works faster and better than ever. I upgraded to Oreo an it is running great.
If you need a temp phone buy something like and unlocked (tmobile compatible) phone like I did $70 Alcatel Onetouch Idol 3 until you get your phone back. My project Fi sim works great in that phone I just needed a micro to nano SIM adapter which I got for free at a local cell phone shop.

Do you still have warranty when you send it?

No, my phone was 1.5 years old and out of warranty. I did not buy an extended warranty. LG extends the warranty on the Nexus 5X well beyond the standard 1 year for the bootloop issue. Also, my phone was in excellent like-new condition.

My 5x was purchased November of 2015, and they covered mine at no cost under warranty. Even provided a mailing label for me to send it in on their dime. They did require me to provide original proof of purchase (which I luckily was able to lookup). I sent it in on a Monday and got it back Friday that same week. Was mind-blowing fast turnaround time.
