Someone can made a update.zip for original recovery ¿?¿?
I ask this because i need make a update.zip with a backup of pds folder. And its posible repair my briked defy.
hi, at which point doesn't your phone go on, while the moto-logo comes up, or earlier ?
Only motorola logo and reboot, i flash all the sbf with wipe before and after. I try to search solution, before send to SAT...
The problem is not about making a zip file but the file cannot be signed. Hence even u have a file u can't use it from stock recovery.
Sent from my ME525 using XDA App
I was having same issue, can't start after a flash with RSD Lite
And problem was my battery ! All was ok before, battery 75%, and no error during flash.
A let my defy connected to power supply during one night with power on white light only , and try again a complete flash with RSD lite, it worked.
With sdk you could sign it, but i have to agree to chaihg, mabye that will work: 1. Load a sbf file
2. Install drivers from motorola page, if not happened yet ( usb-drivers)
3. Install rsdlite vers. 4.9
4. Start up phone while holding power button and volume down
till a small android guy appears, than touch screen in the right bottom corbet
5. wipe (both options), if it stops wiping click ' ok' again till it's done
6. start rsdlite now
7. Take the battery out of the phone and out it in again, while pushing volume up and power button for 5-6 secs release them, a black screen should be shown called bootloader, now put in your usb cord
8. Now the phone should be list up in rsdlite click on the button with '...' to brows for the sbf file u want to flash
9. Start flashing, and wahr till it's finished, it reboots automaticaly
Hope it helps, hmm sorry i seem to have misunderstood
Wohoo. . it seems fairly easy and really simple to create an update.zip file and sign it so that stock recovery can recognize it. Guys can someone please try out making a simple file and see if they dont get a signature error. If this works then we can flash evry damn thing from stock recovery and will never have the problem of bricking the device any other time. Here is some tutorial from our own forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717437
k, sounds not good
Sorry i make all steps and Defy wont start, i will send to SAT. Thanks

Did you actually try making a update.zip and flash it from stock recovery?
Higgsy, can you help us with this question here?.
Hello Guyzzz!!!!!
A Great Newzz for ALL!!!!! First the recovery was not compiled by me!
But NOW I am BACK with a FULLY WORKING RECOVERY AND FULLY COMPILED BY ME :good:
We have now a FULLY WORKING CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY v5.0.2.8.
The CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY is TESTED on :-
1. LG OPTIMUS 3D MAX P725
2. LG OPTIMUS 3D MAX P720H
I HELD NO RESPONSIBILITIES FOR BRICKED PHONES. YOU MAY TRY ON P720 BUT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Credit Goes to :-
1. I, Me and Myself ( For taking the initiative,compiling testing and removing all bugs )
2.. Cynogenmod for the SOURCES.
3. P720H tester ZOOM.
According to me, the CWM RECOVERY is fully working.
HERE ARE THE STEPS TO INSTALL THE CWM RECOVERY :-
Download the CWM RECOVeRY FINAL.zip from the link given below :
http://www.mediafire.com/?p59d9ppjlhkcp67
Copy the cwm5.0.2.8.img on the ROOT OF THE SDCARD not the External SDCARD ( Root of SDCARD means not in any folder )
The BIGGEST REQUIREMENT IS YOUR OPTIMUS 3D MAX should be ROOTED!!!
Now download ANY TERMINAL EMULATOR from the GOOGLE PLAY!!!!!
You can try this :-
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
And install it.
Type the following commands in TERMINAL EMULATOR :-
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p6.backup bs=4096
dd if=/sdcard/cwm5.0.2.8.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=4096
Once complete.
Turn off your phone.
1st hold 3d key then volume down button and at last power button.
Keep holding till the LG LOGO appears and leave when it appears.
You will enter the CWM Recovery
Proof of the Recovery :-
Worked like a charm! First I couldn't get the # to appear (the phone WAS rooted) so I just used the terminal emulator you specified, and that solved it.

is it somehow possible to activate nable adb access in CWM 5.0.2.8?
or can i flash a zip to do this?
Again .. i can enter S/W Upgrade Mode
There i only see S/W Upgrade
Please wait
while upgrading....
(NO ADB ACCESS! But the Tool recognize the phone but won't let me start the sw upgrade.)
In CWM i can mount & unmount storage and flash zip files or backup / Restore.
BUT no ADB access and Restoring the backup i made doesnt work either)
What breaking my head is that the LG Update must had set a flag to boot into recovery after i downloaded it so mindless.
Since then i stuck in cwm bootloop. There mus be a way to reset this flag. Somehow!!!)
Its over .. i flashed CWM-Loop-DeLooper -> now i stuck @ LG Logo.. also vol+ to enter S/W Upgrade not working anymore. Now its bricked! ARGH!

Thanks a lot! Its strange that in any instruction not says this way of use CWM, i read a lot differents cwm instructions, but the always the same - use power off key ot use 3d button.
Who don`t how to use CWM menu :
"properties button" - up
"home button" - down
"back button" - back
"search button" - ENTER
Cannot select options in cwm
Hi Eklovya,
Brilliant job done!!
I have successfully rooted and installed CWM following your method.
However, when i go boot to CWM, I can use the volume buttons to highlight the options (I wanted to backup), but I am not able to select the options. i tried the power button and the 3D button, no go. What do i do?
I just exchanged my P920 and got myself this P725 today!!!
schubeir
EDIT: my bad!!! found the solution in the post just above!!!!
schubeir
(possibly long post , I will try to make a post at least a little fun to read).
Guys, I humbly come before you, kneeling and desperate, trying to solve my problem .
I've serarched XDA and a lot (!!) of others forums and comunities to revive my P720H (LG optimus 3D Max in Brazil).
I am not a complete noob in custom firmwares for Android, but this time, the LG phone gave me a hell of a headache (and almost a divorce, for the 3 days going too late to bed, trying to solve it).
I will explain what happened and what I've already tried to do and the results.
Causes:
I've tried to install ClockworkMod in my P720H because it still was in Android 2.3.6 (I think).
I've successfully rooted the phone using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886057 with the SuperSU app on GooglePlay.
When I asked CWM app to reboot in recovery mode (to wipe things and install the .zip file on the sdcard root) things got bad.
My phone could not get passed the LG logo anymore.
So far we have a cause: CWM app did something to the phone. I am not able to boot the recovery menu nor to pass the LG logo on the screen.
Over the communities we may find that it's a common issue.
It is important to say that I am able to enter the 'S/W updating' state. When I connect the phone to the computer, holding VOL+ and placing the battery, I got the S/W screen.
What can I do? In several posts (even here in xda) we may find 3 or 4 different solutions to restore the phone. I think I've already tried everything, but I am sure that the steps became fuzzy in my read and I mixed the solutions in the end.
Drivers:
- I have already the drivers installed: When I connect the phone (with or without battery and with or without vol+ pressed) my Device Manager recognizes everything. I don't have any component marked as 'unknown device' or with exclamations points or anything. This is a good thing, I guess. I had to install more than one thing to solve every driver problem. I don't remember exactly, but I think that the LGDriver-something and the omap4430 something too.
Solutions:
- I have tried the LG Support Tool and so far it appears to be the closest to a solution that I've reached. With the phone connected (in S/W mode or no), I insert the IMEI and the software recognizes the model and starts downloading something (500mb approx.). But after decompressing, during the installation phase, it gets stuck at 4%. I waited for more than 20min and still got nothing better than 4%. It appears to be a common issue too.
- The LG_FlashTool (version 1.2) does not work either. In fact, it does not even recognizes the phone. I've changed the COMport to 41 (according to some guide) on Windows Device Manager and chose the port 1 on LGFlashTool. Even after selecting the kdz, bin and fls files, the software does not connect to the phone. I don't have a screenshot here, but I've seen here in xda that the software displays the model of the phone on the top and a READY message on port 1. Mine does not do it.
- KKDZ_FW_UPD_EN: I've tried this one but it does not even start working. The interface is not that good, so I don't know where I may be failing. I need to 'read phone information' or not? What do I have to chose on each combobox? How to proceed?
And why the hell is there so much .exe on this thing? Do I have to run a apache server to do something?!
- OMAP4BOOT: This one connects to the phone and works, I think. But I don't know its purpose. It's just to place the phone on 'S/W updating' mode? If so, it's useless, because I can enter it easily. If no, maybe I am missing something. Either way, I don't have a version for the P720H. If I remeber correctly, it proposes P999, P760, P870, ... I choose P760 to test it and it works (apparently, again).
- SmartFlashTool: I don't remember if I have already tried this one. As I said, it was too much already.
- NVFlash: I've found it only to G2X, so I didn't know if I should try forcing it to my model. I can give it a try if you help me.
Other softwares and downloads:
KDZ:
- V10B_00 and V1A_00: found today and downloaded for my model and country (will try to extract things and use it later).
- LG_P725_V10F_00: I was using this one until yesterday, because I didn't have the one to P720H
- LGP700AT-01-V10d-232-03-SEP-11-2012+0.dz : Found in an indian repository of some kind of LG data leak. Apparently is useless. DZextract gave me nothing.
DLL: LGP720_20120330_LGFLASHv1377: Needed in some of the softwares above (LG FLashTool? I don't remeber).
BIN and FLS: LGP725_LG_P725_V10F_00_AP.bin and LGP725_LG_P725_V10F_00_CP.fls, extracted from LG_P725_V10F_00.kdz. I don't know, but I should try extracting these from the V10A_00, because apparently is the correct one for my model/country (I am not in my house right now).
Well... :crying:
tl;dr version:
I am facing a LG logo boot loop in P720H. I've tried to reboot CWM in recovery mode but it didn't work. I've tried several approaches but I don't even know what is the point of each one. I found that this is the best topic to use, because is one of the fews that covers the P720H.
I have all those softwares and almost 5gb of downloaded material (kdz, img, bin, exe, ...) but I don't know what I am supposed to use.
In the end, I want my P720H in android 4.x if possible. If not, I just want the crap 2.3.6 again. :crying:
Can you help me? I am not a total noob in custom firmwares and roms, and I am willing to pass all the information that I can :fingers-crossed:

Hi there, let's go step by step without "shortcuts" that are typically working on PC/WIn.
1. Unlock bootloader of your phone at HTCdev[dot]com [replace 'dot' with . - sorry for confusion I haven't earned reputation to post external links yet]. All necessary tools (fastboot) will be provided to download during process as well as necessary instructions. You need Windows/Linux or OS X computer to complete this step.
2. Download custom recovery .img file and save it to same directory you have fastboot files (e.g. from step 1) on you computer
3. Start phone in fastboot mode (mind fast boot option in Power settings must be unchecked if you using VolDown [-] start option (not necessary if you use adb reboot bootloader). Battery must be charged over 10% (I suggest 30% to stay secure); connect to computer (phone shall display Fastboot USB)
4. Navigate command/terminal window on your computer to location of recovery image file from step 2 (fastboot files must be there or have a correct path specified).
5. On computer terminal window run command: fastboot flash recovery filename_of_recovery.img . Red section must be exact custom recovery file name.
6. You'll get some communication in terminal. If completed OK will be among them, if failure, there will be FAIL with description of reason (e.g. low_power). If only "waitng for device" dislays, check connection with phone.
7. Navigate phone to HBOOT, then select recovery. If recovery don't start, check step 1 and restart from step 3. If only icon with red ! appears, it means you have stock recovery installed. Please verify from step 1.
8. Once custom recovery is installed and working, use it to flash SuperSU or any other superuser app (must be flashable .zip to be applied). Install just 1 root application, to avoid problems. At this point, you may consider flashing busybox also if you plan extensive file modification, but it's not necessary for root. For any sake, clear cache befor restart.
9. Restart the phone - you shall view SuperSU application or any other superuses app you've flashed i step 8.
Hope now works.

Thanks for your answer, I have to say I properly unlocked the phone so I do not think there is a way I messed up with this step as when I start bootloader it clearly shows on the top of the screen ''UNLOCKED".
When I flashed recovery on my phone I had no errors prompted or any message of failure. The process went well until a success notification.
Now when I start my phone into bootloader I repeat, I clearly see that recovery has been installed but when I attempt to start it then I'll be almost instantly brought back to the bootloader screen... now I started to wonder if... if an update of android could cause this kind of issue? The point is my phone is using android 4.4.4 and not the factory version 4.4.2. I remember having updated my android version which was perhaps a mistake as this phone is not very old and I was planning to root it in the next days... Now I'm not expert just try to figure it out.
I tried different system to auto root via different apps, some using the PC some using directly the phone, I never get any success...

I'd suggest test running from Fastboot: fastboot boot custom_recovery.img - replace with actual file name from directory you're running terminal.
This shall verify if it's problem with recovery file or any remaining protection...

Does having S-ON bother? I was also wondering about that but all tutorials I found no one mentions anything about the S-ON or S-OFF thing.
But I do have a S-ON under UNLOCKED
what is stock recovery.img name
i dont know what is the real stock recovery.img name.
htc desire 820q dualsim
I can't root my htc desire 820q by this method, is any alternative way?
I just root my phone with same procedure but my phone still show s-on..... How can i s-off my phone.....
READ EVERYTHING CAREFULLY!
1.Your phone warranty will be void after this tutorial!
2.Any small mistake and your phone is bricked/bootlooped!
3.All of your data will be lost so back it up somewhere

Hey Guys Im Back! Thank you for the support and how it blew up. I have tested this on Android 10 UI 2.0 and it works better then ever!
Also installed lineage os : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a10/development/rom-lineage-os-a10-a105f-t4078093
So i tried using afaneh92's tutorial which will be linked here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a10/how-to/magisk-root-galaxy-a10-series-t3963822
Which lead to me bootlooping or softbricking and my storage was reduced from 32 gb to 16Gb so i decided to work on my own method!
Credits go to afaneh92 for the Twrp!

E: Installing Magisk
Since magisk is counted as the best rooting option rn i will be using it in this tutorial(Sorry supersu fans)
1.Install Magisk Manager
2.Press on Install (first one) then press install again and after that press Install Zip Only
3.Then go into Twrp by doing the steps below
3.1.Turn off your device
3.2.Hold vol up and power button untill you see TWRP logo

4.2Swipe right on the bottom to flash it then press reboot system now.
5.Now you have TWRP,Root and Magisk Congratulations!
What happens if something goes wrong.
1.SV Error Device 1 library 0 - You installed the wrong firmware look for the right firmware.To check go in recovery mode and look at the A105XXXXXX and then look for a download. Remider AP->AP BL->BL CP->CP HOME_CSC->CSC
2.vbmeta.img error - you have the wrong vbmeta.img file. Redownload the original firmware and take out the right vbmeta.img next time you try flashing. Reminder AP->AP BL->BL CP->CP HOME_CSC->CSC
3.A blue screen telling you to use samsung switch emergency update. That wont work so just flash the original firmware and try flashing twrp again.
4.When i try to boot in it gets me into TWRP - Thats just because that your data is corrupted and to fix it while in TWRP mode press wipe then swipe after its done press Reboot To System. That should be a fix
5.My internal storage is just full of weird numbers and I can't download anything on it! Go in TWRP then wipe,press advanced wipe, click on internal storage and data, swipe. That should fix the error
6.Boootlooping or Bricked! Installed corrupted firmware or the recovery was f-ed up. Then install the right firmware and redo the steps!
If you have issues during the process send it in the comment ill try to respond as fast as i can!
i notice thread title says exynos only.. u do know they are all exynos including a102u and a102u1 right?
Oh. Alright thanks for telling me.
Press on app? I have nothing in odin saying that, do you mean ap?
Edit: guess not....i'm bricked, stuck on galaxy logo, device not recognized by pc, holoding power button wont force reboot, nothing lol.
Edit2: can force reboot holding volume down and power but instantly stuck on logo again, cannot power off or enter download, nothing...bricked. Followed this guide to the letter. I assumed when you said app in odin you meant ap since there is no app button. My bootloader unlocked then I went to flash in odin the tar i made with patched boot and vbmeta, along with recovery linked. I used matching firmware to what my A10 has also. Would not mind if i could get back into download mode, but that looks impossible now.
Edit3: Managed to get download mode but had to be so quick...hopefully I can reflash stock now.

Im sorry for that and yes i meant AP.
If you wanted to reboot you had to hold vol up vol down and power at the same time and you sure that you unlocked the bootloader and used the right firmware?
Also tell me the AP and from which source have you downloaded it :laugh:

The corruption was my side, I was using a download manager, but when I downloaded through chrome it was all good. As I said, schoolboy error on my part for not checking md5. I used sammobile site for the firmware.

I have a Samsung galaxy sm-a10. I've tried everything here, even combination files. The error I ALWAYS get is 'failed flashing ROM... OEM lock'
Of course I have unlocked OEM in developer options, but still I get this error in the bootloader.

Thanks for the great how-to. I'm looking at buying an A30s, but rooting and retaining encryption on the data partition is key for me. I gather that step 6 above will format the data partition, leaving it unencrypted (which is why you get more than the 16 gb if you wipe it - correct?) Will this method allow me to re-encrypt the phone after rooting?
Also, would you mind clarifying about losing root if not using Magisk to reboot - does that include powering off as well?

Yes, if you wipe data from recovery mode it will give you your phone's storage. You will lose warranty, Samsung pay, knox, secure folder, etc.. you can't get it back also if you unroot the device or re-flash the frimware. And power off will also unroot the device. For that you can reset the phone from Settings it will not format your phone. And rooting the phone or using custom frimware will give you less security so high changes of hacking.
Thanks! I ended up getting an A7 instead of A30s, but it's good to know. I try to only buy rootable phones, and I know that some phones can be rooted and still encrypted, like the S7, hence the question.
