Hello XDA,
I have an G2 that is currently broken on the front screen, the LCD is functional however the touch interface is not working. I need to recover my photos and anything else that i could possibly recover with my computer however the phone is defaulted to charge only on a computer. There is no password on the phone and when i use an lg flip cover it will go to the homescreen. Does anyone have an idea on how i could accomplish this? phone is not rooted and usb debugging is disabled. I've looked around the forums and google searched around but i have had not luck, this leads me to believe there is nothing else i can do however maybe somewhere here can save the day.
Thank you
Hi everyone! I have a problem with Sprint LS970. Phone don't turn on, and my PC don't recognize it. In the device manager nothing don't happen. On the phone lights only red led and nothing else. Can i make anything to repair it?? Or it's dead?
P.S. Sorry from my bad English
Lg optimus g repair
Sorry i found this so late, did you try to flash something that could have been incompatible? It dosent sound like your phone is completely dead because you describe that the red led turns on and nothing shows in device manager if it was dead then there would be no led at all and eather it would show under ports as qualcomm hsusb qdloader or nothing would happen at all depending on what happened, the only thing I can think of for now is to try to find instructions on how to fix the lg optimus g using board diag Edit: it sounds like what you expirienced is what has been described on another post as the red led of death, it looks like his po l roblm can be easily fixed, if the device still refused to turn on you should open up the device, disconnect the battery for at least a minute then reconnect the battery, close the device, then try to turn it on, it should work now but it may need to be charged. It is likely that this happened bcause the device went into a confused state where it wont know the battery percentage therefore it wont turn on
Hi,
I'm in a bit of a problem.
I got this m8 that was supposed to turn on but it doesn't. I got a battery replacement and everything and nothing changed. Long story short, I plugged it into a computer and I get Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 in Device Manager.
So basically, I've done a bit of recovery through QFIL before. It says in QFIL there is no previous software version. I think I could revive it with all the QFIL files to flash onto the phone. I've seen the HTC M9 has these files somewhere on XDA.
Please, I'd appreciate it if someone could supply me with these files or some other advice.
Thanks,
Jev
I have a similar problem and so far been unable to find relevant files or information on reviving a bricked M8 using QFIL.
Please help.

In the 3 years I've had the device and been on this device forum, I've never seen the files posted or linked; nor seen anyone unbrick from this condition.
That said (for the second poster, and not the OP) be sure it's an actual brick; as you haven't described any of the events that led to the current condition (one of the pitfalls of saying "I have a similar problem" and not actually supplying any specifics). The message "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 " will appear anytime the device is not powered on (including a brick, but other conditions as well). It may be simple as charging the phone for several hours, then holding power+vol up for a minute or so, to force the phone to boot.
HTC One M8 bricked
Thank you redpoint73 for your reply. I bought this phone with the problem existing so don't know much about what lead to the condition. The seller did say that he rooted the phone and issued some fastboot commands, but couldn't remember the details.
I have left the phone connected to a charger for more than 24 hours, but the charging LED is not on continuously, nor regular blinking.
When the phone is connected to a charger or computer the charging LED flashes on for about 1 second, then nothing more.
In the case of computer connection the USB connection sound is heard (but never hear the USB disconnection sound) and Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 appears in Device Manager.
I have tried all the various combinations of button pressing as recommended in lots of places, with times ranging from 10 seconds to 30 minutes or more.
At one stage I taped all the buttons down and when connected to a charger the LED blinked in a regular manner.....on for 1 second, off for 1 second, on for about 0.5 second, off for 12 seconds, and then the cycle repeated continuously. When connected to a computer in this condition the USB connect sound is heard at each 0.5 second blink.
I am currently looking, with hope, at various flashing utilities for phones with Qualcomm chipsets.
You say that you have not seen anyone unbrick from this condition. Does this apply to the M8 only as there appears to be more information available for the M7 and M9?
Hello All,
I have the exact same issue ...
It started by showing messages like "android core/services has/have stopped". I rebooted, then there was no mobile network connection -> No IMEI.
I had no worries, that happened also in the past and I could solve it with a dirty flash.
Then I went to Recovery, dirty flashed my ROM (Android Revolution), phone rebooted and started building application cache.
At some point, it started, then some more caching and ... boom, blackout.
It doesn`t respond to anything. No power+volume combination, anything.
I have even opened it up and removed the battery connector.
Without battery, when I connect it to the power source, via USB, the RED light turns on for a second and the Off. ..
Also, when connected to the PC, it is identified as : " Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 " .
Are there any repair possibilities, besides motherboard replacement ?
Thank you in advance.

It's debatable whether the issue is "exactly" the same (can have various causes and outcomes) but the current condition is similar. Therefore, did you try the suggestions already offered?
Try charging for several hours. Then try holding power+vol up for a minute or so, and see if there is any change. Anything coming on the screen is a good sign (even if it doesn't boot up fully).
I don't see anything in your descriptions that would indicate anything you could have done to truly brick it. It's hard to brick this phone just by flashing ROMs. So unless there just happened to be a battery or other hardware failure at the same time, I don't think it's bricked. And a hardware failure while you were booting up a newly flashed ROM would be an awfully strange coincidence.
Thank you for your reply.
When I reach home, I will connect it to the charger, let it sit overnight and afterwards I`ll try to start it via Power+volume up.
I will get back with feedback.
Hello All,
The approach with the charging does not work ... I left it overnight, more that 10 hours, and it`s in the same state; it doesn`t react to anything.
When I plug it to the PC, it recognized as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008.
Any ideas or hints are highly appreciated.
Thank you.
Further to my previous post I opened up my phone and check the voltage at the battery connector and it was only 2.6 volts, so the battery was obviously not being charged via USB.
I charged the battery up to a nominal 3.7v using an external charger connected directly to the connector and then tried all the button pushing scenarios again with no joy. With the battery charged the phone is not recognised by a PC and the charging LED does not illuminate at all. The condition described previously is only achieved with the battery disconnected (or with the battery partly or fully discharged).
Hopefully these observations might help someone diagnose what the problem is.

Try another charger, try the button combo with the charger connected (and also not connected), try just power, or power + vol down (hold each button combo for at least a minute). Play around, and see if anything works. A few folks have had luck just messing with different combinations.
If you can't get the phone to power on, into at least bootloader, where isn't anything you can do. It will only ever be read by the PC as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008. That is, short of opening up the phone, but that may or may not work, depending on what the problem is (battery, motherboard, etc.).
Strange, you are the 2nd person today on this forum with the similar issue, of apparent brick after just flashing a ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73039334&postcount=7
Makes me wonder if the emmc chips are just going bad (as this is getting to be an old phone) and the ROM flash is the last straw (although it was on the brink of failure anyway).
But this is just a guess, at best.
Hi,
I know this has been a really old thread. I only realised I had replies now . Anyway, thanks for the replies, I really appreciate it. But unfortunately, no hope for my device. I have tried everything. When I plug it in to any charger, it just blinks red/orange(I can't tell which colour) once, and then just stays dead. No button combo did anything.
Thanks,
Jev
Good evening,
I have read many threads on recovering this particular model of Note 4 from the dreaded Qualcomm 9008 brick. I am only making "another" thread because of the unique nature of the device I have.
A fellow US Veteran has asked me to try everything possible to recover the photo's off of this device. Some of these are the last photo's of his grandmother before she passed. That is the only reason I am possibly going against the rules of XDA and post another brick thread...
Recovering the device is secondary to recovering the user data off of the device...
Here is the story as I was told.
User was having some sluggish issues and called Sprint support.
Sprint Support had him "push button combos" until the phone stuck at a "Do not turn power off or remove battery" screen appeared.
Sprint Support then convinced user to pull battery out.
Device no longer powers on, nor does it show any signs of life when put on a charger.
This all happened about 7 months ago, since then the device sat in a drawer until I asked him if I could see it. I plugged it into my laptop holding vol+/- and it immediately registered as a 9008 device (I had the qualcomm drivers installed from troubleshooting my LS996).
I believe the device did NOT have usb debugging enabled and was NOT rooted before this. So I am requesting some instruction and maybe a little hand holding so I can try to recover his pictures and I know he and his family will be incredibly grateful to have these pictures back...
Here is all I have done so far.
I've tried all the button combos+usb combos. I can only get vol+/- + usb to work
I've tried this after freezing in a deep freezer for 10min, 20min, up to 4 hours.
I cannot see the device in Odin at all, however I can see it with UAT 2.0.2 as well as in QFIL and QPST. I can also see it in CDMA Workshop as well as CDMADEVTOOLS.
I have NOT tried pushing anything to it, only to read it. I do have the original simcard with it.
I thank any and everyone willing to assist me in advance.

Hi,
I have a 4 year old LG G4 with stock ROM and it was working perfectly until yesterday. I charged it in my car and at about 45% I plugged it off. Google Maps was running but frozen and the phone did not react to anything anymore. So I removed the battery and started it again. After booting it was frozen again (showing the home screen). Then I removed the battery, tried it again but this time it got stuck after the "bootloader unlocked" screen. Same procedure again, this time nothing happens at all. The screen is black, no vibration, nothing.
Also charging the phone does not work. It is not reacting to anything. Also tried removing the battery for a few hours and then tried it again. It seems like it died (but I have no idea why)
What else could I try? How can I find out what is broken?
If the phone is really broken now and it is not worth repairing it: How can I access the data on my external storage? It is encrypted with the default android encryption and as far as I know the key is stored on the internal storage.
Any help would be appreciated!
Best,
Simon
Nobody else had this problem?
Ilapo. Search for it.

Cool, thanks!
But it seems that this is only working if my phone is at least turning on and I am able to boot the recovery mode. My phone is not doing anything anymore. No vibration, no logo, nothing. I think something in the processor died
