Help!!! Bricked and I have a unique problem... - Sprint LG G2

I did refer to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2656275&page=13#post55838770
This is what happened:
I bricked my phone trying to install the autorec custom recovery after successfully rooting my phone. I get this " fastboot mode started" then on the 2nd line "uds_start()"
I think I am getting into download mode, it just says fastboot: processing commands.
however I don't see anything about com ports or LPT in device manager. all i see when i plug in my phone is "adb interface", and in that is "fastboot interface (google usb id). i can't find anything about my lg phone in there. so i can't reassign it to com41. is there any other workaround?

I have the same problem, look for solution.
Greetings

you have to download the laf.img and boot.img from http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/LS980/Stock_Firmware/zvc_partitions and then using fastboot, do fastboot flash laf.img and also fastboot boot.img. You should then be able to get into download mode correctly (with phone completely off, press and hold volume up button (dont let go) and also plug phone into computer using usb cable. When you see "DOWNLOAD MODE" on your phone, you can let go of the volume button. At this point, just tot back to stock.

cmd fastboot not working

tried all sorts of driver can someone pls help me with the drivers..i need a fully working fastboot drvier for windows 7
PlZZZZ Help i need to flash a rom
Explain your problem, not what you think the solution is
i have even a laptop with htc sync but in my desktop even though it is installed in the cmd it says waiting for device
So... is fastboot and usb debugging turned on in the settings?
fastboot commands only work when the phone is in FASTBOOT mode. If the phone is turned ON (in android) you have to use adb commands.
Get the latest version of HTC Sync Manager for the latest drivers
If you are trying to use a fastboot command, you must place your phone in fastboot mode.
To do this,
Hold down your power button and volume down rocker until the phone reboots and you will be presented with the bootloader
Then, using the volume rockers to navigate, select fastboot (it should already be selected) and press the power button to select.
Connect the USB to your phone and your PC and you will now be in Fastboot USB mode.
i just need proper drivers extracted from any one of ur comp

Fastboot Problems, because of hw keys

Hey
im trying to unlock my bootloader again (had to lock it because i did a OTA on unlocked stock firmware)
im currently on stock ics, if that has anything to say. but the problem is when trying to install the fastboot drivers in windows device management
as far as i have read, when going into fastboot, is powering of the device, press and hold the menu button and connect the usb cable to the phone then u will get a blue light, find the drivers and install
but my menu button does not work anymore, idk why but it wont work when running android either. i have also tried getting in fastboot mode by holding the back button, then i get a green light as usual.
is there any way to enter fastboot without holding the menu button, or do i need to order a new keypad board for my phone
Thanks, Joakim
EDIT!!!!: i dont know what i have been thinking about, as you could enter fastboot, by typing adb reboot bootloader in adb, sorry
good you found out... there's also an option in flashtool inside fastboot window called "reset to fastboot through ADB"... also works... obviously your phone but be turned on and connected to PC through ADB.

idiot in need of help with d855 stuck in fastboot

because im an idiot an was playing with my phone before bed i flashed a boot.img with flashify (which i now regret)
Now all it does is come up with the lg logo and then go to a black screen with fastboot on it........really stupid i know
When i plug it into the pc it wont show in adb devices or in fastboot devices............all that ive found show me needing these.............helllllllllp please
it was running stock lollipop rooted and with no custom recovery installed
Well, if you're able to enter download mode you can flash stock kdz from LGflashtool, otherwise, meh
(to enter download mode switch off the phone, press volume up for 3 secs and plug the USB cable to your pc while still pressing vol up)
here the full guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 good luck
i love you.......back up and running many thanks

Am I bricked or is it a step I may have missed? ZenFone 2 ZE551ML

Quick background on situation.
I was running CM13 and I still have TWRP 3.0.2-0. I wanted to try out CM14 or some other variant. I went into TWRP Recovery Mode and Advanced WIPED everything except the Internal Storage and MicroSD (this is probably where I messed up?)
Then went to install and navigate to the new rom and gapps on my microsd card. Well TWRP does not see either. It lists both of them but with 0MB and unselectable. I tried two other card, no go (all FAT32). Tried OTG with 3 different thumb drives, same results. The OS is gone and all I get of course is the white ASUS boot screen loop. ADB doesn't see any devices as well (windows device manager see no new devices when I attached the cable or when I list devices).
The only thing I can boot into is TWRP and I have tried everything to access the SD/OTG without success.
So can I assume I have bricked this thing and must go onto the IntelSOC XFStik procedure? and if so, does having a working TWRP on there force me to deviate from the normal unbrick procedure I have see here and on youtube?
Or is it something really easy that I am missing? I am fairly novice (as noted by my current situation), so maybe it's an easy fix?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
@Endosmok
You have LP version twrp recovery? , not the mmbl twrp recovery installed ? which ends in 3.0.2.M1 ??
If you do have 3.0.2.0 for LP bootloader which early versions of CM13 used , then you can fastboot flash stock recovery for 4 20 40 196 in bootloader from here....
https://mega.nz/#F!k4MHiAgL!dVuOKeH3eokcwPSNI79ffw
Thanks go to Shakalaca
To get into bootloader -- from Twrp , select reboot , select power off !
Count to ten after switching off.
Press power and vol + , release power when it vibes , release vol+ at asus screen.
Fastboot flash stock recovery for above LP .196 in bootloader , when flashed --- scroll via vol buttons to recovery and hit power. At the dead android , press power and vol+ together for 4 secs , release vol+
You should be in stock recovery now.
Scroll to `update over adb` and select .
adb sideload LP official firmware from asus for LP .196 or .198
If you need help to get thru this step , just ask:good:
Thanks for the response. I am not sure if I have the LP version. It was done back I think in April of last year... I looked around TWRP and I don't see anything except 3.0.2-0 listed.
So still a little confused. This is how i have been navigating so far....
Power button, volume up... I get to the dead robot. There I can see FASTBOOT MODE is in Red, product name, variant, IFWI, Serial #. The rest is either ? or unknown (bootloader version is unknown).
Then at the bottom i can see 'continue the fastboot process' in blue. With the volume rocker i can select, NORMAL BOOT, POWER OFF, RECOVERY MODE and RESTART BOOTLOADER. I have been select Recovery Mode to get into TWRP. Restart Bootloader gets me back to the dead robot. I would assume this is the bootloader. Normal Boot just gives me the white asus splash where it hangs. In TWRP i can see ADVANCED -> ADB Sideload, I can start and it shows starting adb sideload feature with the blue color scrolling. But still when I connect to the computer I get no connection and nothing is listed when i run adb devices.
My TWRP doesn't let me select either the OTG or MicroSD, they show 0MB but are listed. So no way for me to flash via TWRP. I figured if i can get the computer adb to recognize the phone I can try to sideload via there. But so far my device manager doesn't see a thing, not even an unknown device waiting for their proper drivers.
Where am i going wrong?

You have LP bootloader .
Type in bootloader >
fastboot devices
If recognised, fastboot flash , follow my first reply above , adb wont be recognised until stock recovery is flashed and selected.
Please try to follow what as been already advised
It is V important to follow this from above , dont miss this step ;-
To get into bootloader -- from Twrp , select reboot , select power off !

Ok... let me get this straight.... before I sound too dumb...
You want me to go into the bootloader from TWRP (using Reboot > Power Off), even though I get to TWRP via the bootloader (recovery mode) from a power on?
Also, how do I know if fastboot is enabled? Is it when I see FASTBOOT MODE in the color red on the bootloader screen with 'continue the fastboot process' at the bottom?
I've done step by step what you wrote and I get to the bootloader but fastboot devices shows nothing (I've tried different computers/cables as well). I have the computer connect to the phone w/ bootloader screen on with what i wrote about FASTBOOT MODE in red and contine the fastboot process. If that is not correct, let me know. I did hold down the Volume Up for a bit longer
I'm almost thinking I have a hardware issue with my phone. I did replace the mic with a new module prior. I never checked if the usb storage was functioning after. Though it charges via the usb (even connected to a computer it charges but not recognized as a device). I'll have to double check that as well.... not sure why the sd card is not recognized though either... never touched that area. Could be the reason why TWRP can't access either the micro sd or otg?
I do appreciate the help... and i have been reading other threads... just seem to be at a stand still for now... suggestions are always welcome.
update: tried adjust the cable on the mic module ... no dice... replaced with older mic module, no dice... don't think it's a hardware issue.
To get into fastboot mode, power off the phone. Press and hold the volume up button and press the volume button. Once the phone vibrates, let go of the power button, then the volume button. You should not be in fastboot mode. You can choose recovery, power off, etc. with the volume button when in fastboot mode.
Connect the phone to the computer. Do you see any Android devices in device manager? Do you see any unknow devices?
Did you open a command prompt window on your computer, connect the phone in fastboot mode, and type "fastboot devices" (without quotation marks) and press enter to see if the phone is recognized?

So made some progress here. I think it was a hardware issue now... I put back the new mic module and reconnected the cable and now I can see my SD card and the computer sees it as well in adb and fastboot. That's the good news....
But ran into a new issue when trying to install any ROM from my micro sd card. I get ERROR 7 no matter what ROM I try to install. I have verified that they are the proper roms for my Z00A ZE551ML but still a no go.
What steps should I take next if I can now communicate but get error 7?
Thanks
Which recovery are you using to flash and which file are you trying to flash?
I am using TWRP 3.0.2.-0. Using the install from zip. I select any rom (Nougat Based so far I have tried). RR, Lineage, Octopus, all with the same error.
The phone is running a MM bootloader? What about MM or LP based ROMs?
I believe Timbernot said it was an LP based. I believe I installed about April last year and it was 3.0.2-0
Looks exactly like this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-2-laser/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-0-0-recovery-t3319704
You probably need an MM bootloader for custom Nougat ROMs. Did you try any LP-based ROMs?
I have not tried any LP based yet. I will try in a bit and forward the results.
Thanks

OnePlus 7T bricked on Qualcomm Crashdump mode, unable to boot to fastboot

Hey everyone!
So, I've got a HD1903, 8GB RAM 128GB ROM. I updated to OxygenOS 11.0.02, but it was still buggy as hell, so I decided to downgrade. I also had rooted the phone, and decided to get rid of that too. I went to the stock fastboot roms page, downloaded the 10.0.13 ROM and used 'flash-all.bat' file to clear everything. But halfway, it reboots, goes into recovery, then goes to Qualcomm Crashdump mode. That's it. No code or anything, just Qualcomm Crashdump mode, in Blue and Red letters. I tried to hold vol-up, vol-down and power to get into fastboot, but it just loads the fastboot splash screen, then goes back to the same qualcomm crashdump mode screen. Even if i try to hard reset it, by holding vol-up and power, it still goes to the same screen.
Anyone know what to do? I have no idea how to use the 'MSM tool' that everyone talks about, so any guiding advice would be great!
Thanks!

I didn't install TWRP, this was all on stock recovery. I also cannot get into fastboot mode.
Msmtool does not need twrp or fastboot--just the software, rom image, drivers, and button combo pushes and holding
OK, so I got it working again, thanks to the advice of reddit users, discord users and the latest msm tool and some googling. I held the vol-up and vol-down buttons for 30 seconds, then connected it to the laptop, with msm running, to a usb 2.0 port, and pressed start. hey presto, it worked. Thanks guys!!

Hello
Using the MSM tool is very simple, you just have to download it from this link.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/12y3lO0wIgb2_LSDeVw9x_2C_HjbgZlb_/view?usp=sharing
NOTE: only works on Windows PC
1. Unzip the contents of the RAR into a folder.
2. Run the MSM application
3. Click Start.
4. Connect the cell phone in EDL mode (volume up + down button)
5. Wait for the process to finish (it takes a long time, please be patient)
6. The phone will restart automatically and a message will appear informing you that the equipment is damaged (don't be careful).
Note: The phone should automatically boot into fastboot mode and display a menu, but if it doesn't and instead boots to the T-mobile screen, you need to force shutdown with the power button for several seconds and then manually start it in fastboot mode. (volume up + volume down + power button)
7. Now you need to unlock the bootloader with the command from a Windows CMD window, but you need to download this ADB tool first.
https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
-Unzip the tool into a folder
-Open a Windows command window, in administrator mode and direct it to the path where you unzipped the ADB tool.
8- Execute this command while the cell phone is connected in Fastboot mode.
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
9- A question will appear on the phone in which you must allow the unlocking.
-With the volume keys select the option to allow it and press the power button.
-At this time your bootloader will be unlocked.
10. Copy the ADB tool files into the folder where ROM 10.0.13 is and replace everything.
11. With the phone connected to the PC, on the command line, run the flash-all.bat file
12. When the phone restarts and the yellow and white letters appear informing that the phone is not safe because the bootloader is unlocked, repeatedly press the (volume down) button until a menu in Chinese appears.
-PC will detect the phone again in fastboot mode and continue to flash
-Leave the phone and PC still until the process is finished.
-In the command line it will indicate that it cannot find files or partitions (ignore it)
13. Finally, the computer will restart automatically and you will be able to use it normally.
Notes:
1. If the phone after the flashing process with MSM starts up and shows the T-mobile logo, don't worry, just turn it off with the power button and connect it in fastboot mode.
2. Do not try to use it with the firmware that I install with MSM, as it will not work properly.
3. Before locking the bootloader again (if you plan to do so) first update via OTA, to the most recent version of Oxygen, otherwise the system will crash again and you will have to repeat the whole process.

Oh wow that was a long and well defined post. Thank you for taking the time to type it out.
As it happens, I fixed my issue already (IDK if there's a solved flair for XDA or something?). I downloaded the latest (10.0.15) MSM Tool from the XDA page, held the vol-up and vol-down for 30 seconds this time (as per advice from discord users) got the phone into edl mode, connected to a usb 2.0 port and let msm tool do it's thing. Everything is working perfectly now.
I've got the same problem but even with holding vol up+down buttons for 30 seconds I can't get into edl mode. It boots into qualcomm crashdump mode. I don't have fastboot working, I only see fastboot splash screen for a sec and then qualcomm crashdump mode appears. Could someone help?! As soon as usb cable is connected phone boots into qualcomm crashdump mode. no matter what I do.
Also do service centers undertake servicing for such phones which bricked because of badly flashed roms.

If they're going to just change the motherboard, I wonder what the EDL mode is meant for. Anyways, I won't go for motherboard change one can buy a new and better phone at that kinda price.
Anyways, I Fixed it through EDL method, you have to hold vol up and down simultaneously and immediately connect to windows (while still holding both buttons) via original USB cable. Check with Device manager if your device shows up, it's easy enough but you might have to keep trying to you get it right. Thereafter, disable driver verification in windows and if Sahara communications failed message appears in msm tool, turn off phone and repeat the procedure again.
The repair peeps only fix hardware and not software. It's more cost effective for them to swap out hardware faster than messing with msmtool like us

OK, so you won't get any confirmation that you're in EDL modem you just have to wing it. What I did, I first opened the MSM tool on my laptop, connected the USB side to the laptop at a USB 2.0 port, and kept the USB-C side within easy reach. I held the buttons down with one thumb for 30-35 seconds, and while still holding them down with one hand, i connected the cable to the phone and clicked enum in MSM, it showed connected so I let the buttons go, and it didn't restart. I clicked start, and it worked for me.

You don't have to hold buttons for that long, you can immediately connect it to PC. There is usually a sound to indicate that a new device has been connected to windows, you can also keep device manager open for confirmation. This video really helped.
After receiving a " qualcomm crash dump" , I was able to boot into recovery. Then I had done a factory reset.
Phone turns on fine, charges as well.
Although, On my Laptop / Desktop it does not see the phone within MSM, ASs well as ADB, Fastbootd or device manager.
I have the correct drivers downloaded.
Ideas ?

Tried both, my desktop would always connect, adb, fastboot, etc.
I had just just freshly installed oneplus drivers including qualcomm on my laptop. Device was not recognized before driver installation or after.
Figure id try on my Mac, and linux laptop. no dice.
ADB is enabled.
Here are the drivers that are installed on my PC ( I enabled hidden devices, in order to see them ) These were recognizing prior to " qualcomm crash dump" . Not phone will not even be seen
