how much time it takes for flashinf, after following all your steps :confusedtool is stuck on the same think for almost 20 min, please help me and let me know what i can do
SP Tools link broken!
Unable to download SP Tools. Please help!
Seems i bricked it
I was earlier a user of this device and had tried several ROMs. Was experimenting with few custom ROM's on my friends device (Canvas 4)
After flashing a ROM (S5 ROM) posted on this forum, i was getting some errors in CWM:
can't mount /cache/recovery/log
and it refused to flash anymore ROM's.Left with no other option, i thought of flashing back the stock ROM and then rooting agn to flash a custom rom.
However, even the stock ROM didn't flash, i was getting an error
BROM ERROR : S_DA_SDMMC_WRITE_FAILED (3149)
I googled a bit and some forums suggested to format flash tp resolve this error. I did that and that worked and got a green circle with Format Ok.
Again, i tried flashing the stock ROM and now got a new error in SP Tools:
BROM ERROR: S_DL_PMT_ERR_NO_SPACE (5069)
I am stuck at this point and not able to flash the stock ROM. After loading the scatter file, only flashing of Preloader works. Remaining all is stuck.
Running a memory test on SP tools gives an error that
NAND FLASH WAS NOT DETECTED
Please help me out, i have spoiled my friends device and need to fix it ASAP.
The masters here, please help out - @shiv.guddadmath @kannanrs @gamerboy_010 @rishivg @FSadino @pranjal18 @NeroD @rahilj007 @Yash98 @jayadev01
@satsmagic,
I encountered this and if i remember right, this has been reported before. S5 Rom does spoil the recovery and it is repairable.
With SPTools, use the Firmware Upgrade option instead of the Download. This will set it right and try a stock rom first. I used Pranjal's ROM and it worked. Please try and report. Of course, you can flash any rom after that.
Greetings...

@kannanrs thanks for replyiing back, i think i had tried that on stock ROM but i tried again using Pranjal's ROM, doesnt work :crying::crying:
Please see the error screen attached
seems m stuck badly and lost it:crying:
If i do download only, i get Error 5069 (S_DL_PMT_ERR_NO_SPACE)
the red and purple bars do complete 100% in both cases
And i used S5 ROM from the below link by @rishivg, it never said it breaks the recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/canvas-4/development/samsung-galaxy-s5-rom-a210-t3324837
@satsmagic
Almost all, that flashed the S5 rom released by me, encountered this problem, including me. But the rom bettered all expectations.
And only when we need to check another rom did we encounter this.
This happened to me at all times when i tested this rom for answering the questions then. Its now 4 months that my canvas4 died a graceful death and beyond repair. So I am unable to test and tell you. Rishi can dare to test and report this and probably drive a nail to end this problem for you, if he can afford to risk a bit and probably rubal and vikas who helped me when this happened. I will ask them to comment also....
Theres a thread in the A116 or A110 forum which i will share here soon...
Cheers!!!!

as expected the srvice center guy said, prblm with motherboard, get it replaced, i dnt think so. SP tools still detects the phone and flashes preloader, then comes error 5068
On searching for the NAND FLASH WAS NOT DETECTED, i found on some forums that if we have a back up of FLash from other device with stock ROM then it can be helpful, see below link (post #33 & 34)
http://www.chinaphonearena.com/foru...NAND-Flash-MT6589-MT6577-MT6582-MT6572?page=4
I presume stock rom should have that but still can someone provide me the same as mentioned in these post. M not sure hw to make tht backup but if anyone here knows that
or a back up using MTK Droid Root and Tools, see below link, it says if its detected its not dead
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943442
see this post as well
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58815549&postcount=15
might be a back up can help me
@satsmagic,
Thank you for the reply...Will share the link for stock rom with you from the source sites.
Canvas4 forum also has some of them..rooted stock to pranjal's that serve the purpose.

i have stock ROM, but that doesn't sort out the prblm.
i think a back up from MTK Droid tool would help, is that different than the stock ROM. Can someone make a backup of the stock ROMusing this tool and provide.

Hi devs
I am an unfortunate soul as my recently purchased LGOG E975 just got bricked. The whole story goes like this -
I successfully rooted the phone one week ago and it was working fine until yesterday when I uninstalled the Google Play Movies app via Root Delete app. The problem started when I restarted the phone - it gave a "Security error" on boot and went into restart loop. Worried I searched at Xda forum for the solution and tried the "TeenyBins" method first (here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249500). But it only aggravated the problem - at 85% of process the phone showed as disconnected from LGNPST and after trying many times the same problem persisted (the process never got to 100%). However the method installed TWRP custom recovery in the phone and a Google Logo replaced the LG logo at boot. Phone was normally booting in download mode and custom recovery but the recovery is unable to do anything - it shows as "Failed" whenever I try to wipe any cache, mount any partition, flash any custom ROM (which I pushed via adb) or take backup. Rather it shows "No OS installed" whenever I reboot, power off etc. TWRP is also showing no data inside sdcard via the inbuilt file manager. What is the problem?
Fed up, I tried LG Support tool - phone is successfully detected in "download mode" (everything is shown including the OS version which means OS is intact). I choose "phone recovery" option in LG support tool and it successfully downloaded the stock firmware (about 1.1 GB wait wait and wait) and when it tried to flash the phone it showed as the phone is not connected and instructed to unplug the phone and restart it and then again connect to PC. I followed everything carefully putting the phone in download mode again but again and again same error......Oh God for heavens sake....
Fed up, I then tried this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010624) - downloaded the latest KDZ (>1GB) according to my phone from LG servers and used the KDZ FW Updater to flash the phone but the tool gave error "File extracted error" and I repeated the process again and again but no avail..............here I am, after 48 hours of desperation having a phone with the same **** Google logo on boot and the screen goes black...nothing happens thereafter..
Please forum devs, experts, moderators or any kind soul, I beg you to help me.... :crying:
If yu ve done the second method before instead of lgnpst tool there may b chances of helping yu.... And make sure which bin nd dll file yu flashed...??
Sent from my LG-E975 using xda premium
OK One question.
Can you get into download mode? Flash MODE?
Follow this
1.Install all drivers LG
2.Download firmware from here http://www.lg-phones.org/official-stock-lg-optimus-g-firmware-rom.html
3.Download http://www.mediafire.com/download/sj5y073xal03ntw/KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.rar
4.Extract KDZ_FW_UPD on desktop
5.Install msxml.exe
6.When done run windows enabler. You will see the icon and left klick on it and choose ON
Now you should se ON at the ICON
7.When done start KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
8.Chose 3GQCT in TYPE and Phone Mode CS_Emergency
9.Then Turn of the Phone. Now hold Vol UP and Vol Down at same time. Hold and plug in the USB cable into your phone
Now you should be in DOWNLOAD mode
10.Now chose your firmware in KDZ File and press Launch Software Update
If it starts to flash dont interrupt it until you see PARAM 1 again. You phone will auto reboot at PAram 95 but dont discconect until you see PARAM 1 again.
If you get bootloop when restart give it 2 min. If it keeps show LG logo then turn of and do FACTORY RESET
Hold Vol up + Power at same TIME i think Now you should get Factory Reset MENU. Now press power again and it should work.
GOOD LUCK

1.Install all drivers LG
........
4.Extract KDZ_FW_UPD on desktop
5.Install msxml.exe
6.When done run windows enabler. You will see the icon and left klick on it and choose ON
Now you should se ON at the ICON
7.When done start KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
8.Chose 3GQCT in TYPE and Phone Mode CS_Emergency
9.Then Turn of the Phone. Now hold Vol UP and Vol Down at same time. Hold and plug in the USB cable into your phone
Now you should be in DOWNLOAD mode
10.Now chose your firmware in KDZ File and press Launch Software Update
If it starts to flash dont interrupt it until you see PARAM 1 again. You phone will auto reboot at PAram 95 but dont discconect until you see PARAM 1 again.
If you get bootloop when restart give it 2 min. If it keeps show LG logo then turn of and do FACTORY RESET
Hold Vol up + Power at same TIME i think Now you should get Factory Reset MENU. Now press power again and it should work.
GOOD LUCK

Thanks for your time dear
but I have exactly followed the process you mentioned and unfortunately still got the KDZ extract error. I have downloaded KDZ for my phone from different locations multiple times but none of the KDZ worked with KDZ FW Updater. It looks like the current KDZ FW Updater is unable to handle the large KDZ files (>1GB) of newer phones while it works fine for older smaller KDZs. In this way this updater is a bit outdated. I request the developers to please update this wonderful tool to make it compatible with latest KDZs.
Try using kdz from romania,it has 982 mb and it's 10D.

But i flashed mine KDZ and its above 1GB and it extracted without issue. It must be something with your PC or something.
Mine extracted without issues
I think you have CORRUPT DOWNLOADS.
Do you unzip the KDZ file from the RAR? Or do you point KDZ Updater to the RAR file? You must unpack RAR so you file will be shown as E97510B_00.KDZ this is the Europe Open Version.
Remember if you unrar the file check if any errors coming when unpacking. If so then your RAR is corrupted and you need to redownload.
'did you RUN Updater as ADMIN?
Download this version of the KDZ European Open

I have the .KDZ file and not .rar but I did not run the program as admin so will try again. It may be a corrupt download so will download again.
One question though, my phone is E97510E_00 (Indian version) so can I flash with the 10B open Europ. version KDZ you mentioned above?
Basically all firmwares are identical.the only differences are operator related. If you can find what are the 4g/lte frequencies of your operator,i could tell you what europe firmware to flash.if you don't have/want 4g,i guess you could flash the latest 10D european kdz without problems.

Mate just flash EU version so you can have working phone. If you sucess you can seek for answer later to flash indian ver.

exactly same problem!
hello my friend,
i have exactly the same problem as you with the same results.today ill try doing this in a desktop and see if the extract problem is gone...it drives me crazy.
please if yu fing something write it here...you ll save me!thank you!
p.s. i have f180 U+ edition
ok i found solution combining all of what i ve read..(and read a lot)
1)find a custom rom (i used avatar) but unzip it and go to \META-INF\com\google\android and open updater script with notepad.Delete this "(assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "e975" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "e975");"
then save the file.
go to first folder that u unzipped and take MetaInf,boot img and system and put them in a new zip.
2)so since u have twrp in your telephone,push with adb the zip from step 1 inside the phone (how to push a rom here)
3)the phone will normally open when you reboot.if you dont have signal go here and download your phones modem.Copy it through your pc to your phone and then reboot again to recovery mode and install this file(do not unzip it)
clear cache,do a factory reset and in the next boot you ll be allright!

Hi,
Really excited, but can u please tell me the step by step procedure. My phone is a F180L korean Sim and i really dont know which is my actual make.. i mean like E973 or E975. I bought this phone to india and unfortunately its U+ sim locked and i was unable to use this phone in indian networks. Hence after going trough this forum, i learned how to change a firmware and how to convert this phone to E975 and i downloaded one for india from the official LG site and there were KDZ extraction error. i tried it with the LG PC sync method and its showing the memory is low and free up some space in the memory. but after downloading a firmware for Europe, i could update my phone into E975, but my indian sim is not getting connected. So i request everyone for a solution. I tried many things already and soft bricked many times.. luckily i could recover it using LG support.
SO KINDLY TELL US HOW U DID IT WITH THE AVATAR ROM AND WHAT DO U MEAN BY \META-INF\com\google\android.
Many thanks

so this is what i did.
1.use LGNPST prog with the small file for installing TWRP in your phone (see how here)
2.Download a custom ROM.I used this.The file will be in ZIP format/
3.copy your rom in a new folder.Rightclick on ROM and press extract here.The extracted files will be 2 folders (METAINF,SYSTEM) and boot.img.Open META-INF\com\google\android (these are folders) and there will be a file "updater script ".Right click on this file and select open with notepad.Then delete the following " (assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "e975" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "e975"); ".Press ctrl+s to save the file.
4.Go to the starting folder,select again METAINF,SYSTEM and boot.img ,right click them and press add to archive(with winrar).In there give a name and be sure to select zi compression.So this new ZIP you've just created is the new ROM.
5.Now you have to send the ZIP you created to your phone.This can be done with ADB push.To read how to do it please read here
6.Once you transfer that file into phone you have to disconnect your phone and press vol+ button and then power on.This is FASTBOOT.Press 2 time the vol- button so it says RECOVERY MODE.Then press the power button and wait to open the TWRP menu.
7.Now that you are in TWRP select wipe and wipe dalvik,cache and do factory reset.Then go to install and youll see the pushed ZIP file that you transfered before.Click on this and press install.
8.After a while it will write that is done.Do a reboot and the new ROM will be fine.
9.If it opens and you dont have signal go to this site here and download the modem for your phone.Mine worked with Korean version modem.I dont know what you should install for Pakistan unfortunatelly.So when you download it,send it in your phone through usb connection (now your phone works,no need of ADB push) and then go to TWRP in recovery mode and install modem like the way you installed the ROM before.Wipe data again and do a factory reset and then your phone should be ok.
BTW you have to know that these ROMS have some bugs but you can do epic customization and the guys always update the rom over the air to do it more stable.
If you have any question feel free to make them!Good luck!

Thanks a Lot MafiaGR....
I didn't tried this yet as i did a different method and i am using it on trial basis. is it works.. then i am more than happy enough to continue... let me explain what i did.. I have rooted my F180L korean U+ sim unlocked phone with motochopper. After rooting the same, then i unlocked my bootlocker with freegee-beta (many thanks to Shell). Then i downloaded a kdz file (E97510D_00.kdz , Europe Open) from the LG server. then i updated the same by putting my phone in download mode (volume up+volume down + USB connected + power ON) and updated with KDZ updated program.. after quite some time my phone got rebooted with E975 Europe Open firmware. Even after this i was unable to get indian network in the phone. So Using Rom manager, i downloaded CyanogenMod 10.1 Rom with GApps and flashed my ROM again. Now my phone is getting connected with indian network. but the problem i am facing is with my network not getting registered... i can find about 12 networks in my phone but unable to register into any of them...Need help from u guys...
Thanks in advance
NJ
Finally I got the problem solved and my phone back !!
Unfortunately nothing worked for me as suggested by you, guys may be I was doing something wrong or else.
Finally I decided to contact LG Service Center in my city and after initial try they told me that "the phone is not getting connected in flashing mode" and I had to submit the phone to them. Next day they called me and told that there is a hardware problem and a "part/PCB" will be replaced within next 7 days. And today they called me again with the good news - your phone has been repaired and I can pick it up anytime. Elated I got the phone within an hour, live and kicking. Thank God I got my loving phone back and most importantly they did not detected that the phone was rooted and thus out of warranty. Lucky me!!! :laugh:
Any way thanks everyone for your prompt help....:good:

maybe you hae to try diferent modems for the mobile phone until you find the right one.Mine works with the Korean modem although i live in Greece.You may have to find exactly in what frquency your provider works and then see where in the world a provider has exasctly the same frequency as yours,and then download the modem drivers from the LGOGs that work in this country.
Hope it works!

You are absolutely correct. The problem for me was with the Modem for sure. I flashed with a Nexus 4 modem in my phone and i could register network in my phone. but the problem now is that the signal is very weak. I tried flashing many modems like E970 Att, then E973 Tellus and few more.. but i couldnt get a better signal. if the signal is good, then the sim is not getting registered. i tried to search for an indian modem for E975 which i couldnt find.. moreover i am unable to download the indian/thailand/hongkong firmwares from LG official site as its saying that the Access is denied. Please help me with those links as i am really desperate to use my phone...
Thanks again

Maybe the package you've tried to install is corrupted.
most likely, but is there anything to do with it or is it over for it.

Flash tool for Xperia devices
1 : install this http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/tools/Flash_tool_for_Xperia_8.zip for unlocked bootloader and connect to flashmode (green led)
2 : look for install correctly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCojEljM598 !

4 : please check thank !!!
bot @melvinhatred , @mahyjooon
seems like u have FLASHED wrong kernels, what are your Exact devices? E6xxx ?
tell me your devices , so that i can guide u better
when you downloaded latest FTF, why did u extract? there is not such need!
download full ftf file via FLASHTOOL ! / the last button on flashtool menu is Xperifirm , click it, select your DEVICE MODEL (accurately) from LEFTSIDE menu, then on the rightside, download LATEST rom as per your country (if country is not listed then Central USA / Europe , or MENA Arabic also) will do just fine.
after FLASHTOOL download and prepare your ftf file, connect your device in FLASH MODE and FLASH this rom (wipe data/kernel/system/setting/userdata ALL)
NOW --------------- since you have BRICKED/ bootloop fone try this
PRESS POWER+VOLUME up key for 5 seconds --- AS SOON AS FONE VIBRATE - RELEASE FINGERS INSTANTLY!!!!
if it restarts and goes in to boot loops then
PRESS POWER BUTTON + VOLUM UP KEY FOR 15 SECONDS --- THE FONE WILL VIBRATE 3 TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHILE ITS VIBRATING SECOND TIME, RELEASE YOUR FINGERS AT ONCE!!!
THE device will sleep.
now try connection your device for flashing in flash mode for FLASHTOOL
this trick / methods is tested by me for xperia z (older device),
tell me what happens with your z5 plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

but after installing supersu it faced softbrick and didn't boot so I tried to flash stock .253 tft file which i had downloaded from other sources , with flash tools but it stuck on modem.sin and i have to brought it to the shop to have it recover by box .its not the first time i'm facing the problem with flash tools , it always stock on one step for about an hour, the time before the last, i was trying to update it by flash tools and it stucked again.the xperia companion isn't working either -_- it says that it cant connect to network to find the update ! i checked the firewall and internet explorer internet options tab , but nothing worked for me ! my flash tools version is 0.9.22.0 build on 16-5-2016 . the last time i tried 0.9.18 version cause i saw somewhere that maybe the problem is related to new version but it didn't worked again, at the end what i think is that there should be zip flashing method from custom or stock recovery for flashing stock Roms too ! flash tools sucks in my case -_-

i will go in preface
1. what is your windows version? flashtool don't work goo on windows8 / 10. it usually hands at some point , i use win7 x64 and also flashtool x64 version
2. what were the sources u donwloaded the ftf file?
3. better to download ftf file via flashtool itself (last button is Xperifirm, click it, find SATSUKI dual E6833 and version of USA/ MENA ending .253) and flash it
4. while flashing disable antivirus, I used SAMSUNG galaxy usb data cable (if that makes difference) ,
5. with me it stuck at reading headers for 19mins but then it closed all headers and flashing was done.
plz read my post.
