Ok, so this all started way way way back when I tried to update twrp (maybe back in august?) and well, after doing so there was no recovery and trying to boot it gave me a secure boot certificate error. Fast forward to today. I follow a guide located around here, flashed the files needed through linux and the phone seemed to be taking them. Well... now it won't turn on at all. Hooking it up in windows shows no sign of life, the phone isn't charging and just no general response from it. Any suggestions?
If its any help it was on a lollipop rom when all of this started.
I think you are stuck on qdloader 9008 mode connect your phone to your windows pc then hold the power button to see any response
No response from the phone. Just a nice black screen
NO i ment is that try connect the phone to the pc open device manager and hold the power and vol up buttons of course the phone wont turn on if it is in hard bricked state but it will atleast show its emergency download state on your device manager
Hey everyone,
I've got my phone startet now, but I still do need a kind of "backdoor", so I can restart the phone, if the button stops working again or if I loose this small plastic-piece again.
Furthermore it would be really cool if I would not have to dismantle the phone to turn it on
First of all I thought about ADB, but ADB doesn't recognize my device anymore.
I don't know why. My USB-Debugging is (and was) activated, but the PC isn't authorized yet (since it doesn't recognize the ADB it won't ask me for permission).
How can I fix this? I already tried to restart (pc and device), reinstall the drivers and kill/start the sever. Nothing worked.
But I'm also open for new ways.
I thought of some possibilities:
1. Change the "action_on_power_plug_connect": Is there a way to change the action my phone does execute when the power plug is connecting? Right now it's just starting to charge mode.
2. Boot on shedule/remote: Is there any app, which got the power to boot the phone, even if it is completely shut down?
I'm thankful for every single advice you can give me here.
Sincerly,

Hello everyone,
I've just repaired the broken display of my old Oppo Find 7.
Everything worked fine but one thing: The power button does not respond anymore.
It's a small piece of plastic, held in place by a bridge of metal.
When I press it onto the "sensor", it doesn't seem to recognize it.
Everything else is working perfectly - connecting a power source makes the phone start into loading mode.
Is there any way to start the phone without the physical button?
Maybe something beyond fastboot?
Or do you think that any phone-repair shop could help me there?
Sincerly,
maj0r_tom
Edit: The Volume Buttons do not work, too.
I've tried ADB. I could swear, that USB debugging is enabled (used Titanium Backup, it's asking for it on startup).
But ADB does tell me, that the phone is unauthorized.
Edit 2: Volume buttons repaired.
Edit 3: I got it.
The buttons didn't break - they just lost a small piece - a very ****ing small piece.
I did see it dropping from my Vol+ button and could insert it into the power button.
The phone startet, Debugging was enabled. Do I have to check anything else to activate ADB?
Hello, i don't know if my problem is the same but i have the power button don't work too. For restart my phone, i press VOL- when I charged the phone. He boot in recovery and next i reboot system. If a hardware solution is possible, tell me.

Hi, I think that an alarm application in ColorOS was able to start the phone if you had alarm setup.
But I'm sure this only applies to the ColorOS native alarm application, so no third party apps....

I have had same problem. I am not expert at all but can suggest you to check out your phone mother board. Problem might be there. Nothing will work if your phone motherboard is out of function. Thanks
Good morning,
When I start my tablet, I remain stuck on the LG logo ...
I can't connect my Pc with lg pc suite or Lg mobile support tool or flashtool.....
Can you help me please ?
Thanks
Edit 07/05 : i got the message on boot ; Secure booting error! Cause : boot certification verify

I just went thru this with my a G Pad 8.0, had quite a few hangups but I ended up figuring it out. Some suggestions from what I learned... :
- Fully charge up your tablet. Mine was charging extremely slow, so I left it plugged in overnight and that finally ended up doing the trick.
- Make sure you have the correct driver installed. If you go to LG's website and find their downloads section, you can search for your device and download its driver. I'm pretty sure their tablet driver isn't device specific, but so if you have any difficulty finding this, let me know and I can post the one that worked for me. After you download the file, don't forget to open and install it. While you're there, you can I'd just go ahead and re-download and reinstall their mobile support tool, just to make sure you've got the most current update. After it installs, open the program; I don't know if you have to, please let but I'd have it open and waiting before you do these next steps.
- Completely power off your device. Unplug it from the wall and turn it off. I found that if I just held down the power button until the screen went dark, my tablet 3would restart itself a few seconds later. But when I kept holding down the power bites dxton thru the reset, it would turn off a 2nd time and actually stay off (about 15sec or so).
- In order to run LG's support tool, you'll wanna boot into download mode. You can search for your device online and it should explain how to do this, I found a couple conflicting methods but I believe the one that worked for me was just by holding the volume up key and then plugging it in to your PC with a USB. If that doesn't work, try pressing the volume up and power keys together then plugging it in, or try pressing both of the volume keys. One of those 3 should have you entering download mode. It will take a few seconds after you attach the cord for you to boot up; keep holding down the keys you pressed until you see the download mode screen. When plugging it in, but I it might be easier to keep holding down the buttons if you start with the cord plugged into your powered off device, and and then plug the other end into your PC while you are doing the boot process. It shouldn't matter which end you connect last, and I found this method to be way less awkward.
- The LG mobile support tool should automatically recognize your device and automatically start the update, and but you might need to select your device yourself, or at least the service provider, in order to update correctly. Just DON'T unplug your tablet thru the entire process. I think the whole thing took me about 15 minutes, depends on your Internet speed really.
- if you've managed to successfully run the update and you're still stuck in a boot loop, you're gonna have to reset your device. Again, you can Google how to do this, but I think most LG's perform a hard reset by making sure the phone is turned off, then press and hold the power and volume down keys. When the LG logo appears, release the power key for a second while still holding down the volume key, and then press and hold power down again until you see the reset screen. Use your volume and power keys to factory reset your device.
Hopefully, now it is should be able to boot just fine! Let me know if you encounter any problems and I'll see what I can do to help.
Hi, thanks for your help sheebie, i'll try asap .

So i was using my phone and decided to restart it after updating my adaway files but my phone never turned back on. The two press the power button screens did not show up either. I tried to uses the MSMdownload tool since i thought my phone was somehow bricked but that didnt work either, it just kept restarting the download process after everything was completed. my computer makes a sound when its connected and it connects correctly as a quallcomm 9008 device but even after all this nothing is working. has anyone experienced something like this or does anyone have any advice?
did you try to long press both power button and vol up ...you should feel a vibration...
maybe it's not turned of maybe it's error causing the screen to be off... also is there any heat?
Which method of the unbrick tool did you use? First or second? If the first, then maybe you should give the second also a try.

I've tried everything and I used th me second method yet nothing happened. I can see my phone get recognized by the computer and get listed on the MSN device list yet nothing happens after it finishes the process. After the green line shows up telling me that it's completed everything the process restarts writhing a few minutes unless I unplug it. No vibration no nothing the phone just died on me after I restarted it .
Try doing MSM on a different PC with all drivers installed , hope it helps
Try to repeat flashing again, there is no other way. Use method 2only. Extract tool again and try flash.
When I was used Xperia Z1, I bricked my phone with a soft brick. So I installed driver in my PC and flash Kernel though FASTBOOT(ADB) either it's not show Device in my PC (I show just "Unknown Device").
After that my phone can connect to my PC again (Now It shown C9303 or something that meant it know it's a phone).
So I can flash by Flashtools again. Soft brick is not scary as Hard brick, you'll find some way to bring it back easily.
Hope this help!
PS. Bricked Phone is WEAK in Battery, always connect it with charger.
Greetings,im Akmal and today I will be sharing some helpful solution to unbrick your Oppo Find 7/7A.Short Story(myb a lil bit longer)¬
So my find 7A got soft bricked when I install custom rom without using TWRP(pretty stupid to do so)
After rebooting my phone keeps on booting to fastboot mode and no matter it happen the same if i press vol up/vol down and power button.
At this stage I knew my phone is soft bricked.So I found the solution to it through some old posts which you have to extract the ColorOS blablabla and adb thingy(I dont wanna go through it here)
But I dont realised that i forget to flash a file name "TZ.MBN"
Now that my phone wont ever boot or even to fastboot which resulted to hard brick.
No recovery screen.
No Charging status screen
No Fastboot screen
No sign of vibrating when i push the power button
-So here is the solution-
Disclaimer-I am not responsible for what ever happen to your device after this-
-there are already some other posts like this but I make this post to let you know that its still working.
1a)First,download the OPPO UNBRICK TOOL HERE
bit.ly/OPPOUNBRICK
1b)goto Google and search for Qualcomm qd loader.download,install and restart your pc.
2)After restarting,Extract the file from OPPO UNBRICK TOOL and open "Msm8974DownloadTool.exe"
3)as you may have notice,its chinese language or some aliens language but dont worry it isn't corrupted,just follow through↓
4)disconnect your device battery,then open the software and press start,after that connect the phone to your pc/laptop (WITHOUT BATTERY) and hold volume up button
5)please wait patiently as it is reflashing stock rom to your device.
6)as you may have noticed maybe your device disconnected but DONT GET PANICKED! press again the power button until its downloading again on the software.
7)If it has done downloading,some row should be in a Green colour.
8)disconnect your cable and try turning on your device again.
That's it!Any comment or curiosity I will try helping you through the comment section but I not guaranteed everything I can answer
P/S:if your device is softbricked,you just should disconnect your battery,and then open the software and press start,then connect the phone to your pc/laptop (WITHOUT BATTERY) and hold volume up button.
If your device is hard bricked(like mine)only holding the power button could work as well
*UPDATE* 24/2/2019
-If you guys still have any concerns kindly contact me through twitter (0728mal)
*UPDATE* 4/7/2020
-yes it is still working guys,no worries kayy
-no you don't need internet for it to work,the software already has all the files needed to flash the device,which is why the file is pretty big.
best regards,
Akmal

hi im having this problem as well. my find 7a is hard bricked after i flash coloros v2.1.5i without twrp. the problem is, my computer does not detect my phone at all even after i hard reset and hold power button for 30 seconds. i dont think the battery is drained because before this happened, my phones battery was about 90% and i try recharging the phone for 30 minutes, and nothing happened. so the debrick tool cannot be used. can you suggest anything for my problem?
Got excited when I read this post! Is there an Oppo Unbrick tool for Mac? I don't have a Windows machine so I can't run the .exe file... Is there an equivalent for those of us not on Windows? Thank you

On Mac's OS, you can always install Windows on its proprietary virtual machine and get the process going that way.

yeah you can try WINE also but i never have any experience with mac os before so i cant guarantee that it will work considering that you're configuring your drivers,which can go wrong if not done correctly
So I have bricked my phone (X9006) while trying to install TWRP recovery. It is stuck on logo and adb/ fastboot does not recognise it anymore. I have tried the above-mentioned tool, but this program also does not do anything for a long time. Am I missing something in applying this solution?
Edit: I am an Windows 10 and I might not have the Qualcomm drivers installed. I don't know how to install

Hello there.have you tried downloading the "Qualcomm"
Driver software on your PC?
is it necessary to remove the battery? I don't have tools for opening my phone and it's battery is non-removable
Perhaps an important step is missing. The Qualcomm qd loader driver is may not signed. I had to boot into the extended start menu on Windows 10 and disable the driver signature check - point 7 - and could now successfully debrick my find7.
