Greetings.
I have a Canadinan LG D852G from Videotron. I've followed the guides and gotten the phone rooted, and bumped to the point of booting into a new recovery image (TWRP/Lineage) on the phone.
But ... TWRP (and Lineage recovery) can't mount because the primary block device is not present. (So there is no possibility of wiping anything).
I've being going about it like this.
1. Use LGUP to refurbish to lollipop [D852G20d_00_1205.kdz]
2. Root using IMAGEPREP2.6 Direct, and then get SuperSU into PRO mode.
3. Use Imageprep to install KITKAT aboot + laf, and TWRP (Also tried Lineage 18.1 recovery)
I can get into TWRP & lineage recovery, but cannot access internal storage while in recovery. It can't be wiped, formatted or anything.
In TWRP all the partitions are marked as "Present: NO". Lineage recovery has the same issue. (See images)
I've been searching / plunking at it for a few days and I just can't seem to find anything that points to a solution.
With the stock lollipop recovery I can get in and wipe the cache and data/factory reset and the logs show successful completion. It's not encrypted either.
I've also been unable to get a complete working KITKAT KDZ/TOT for my specific device, so I can't start from a complete factory KITKAT install. [ The only D852G Kitkat .tot I found just caused a bootloop, and I had to hard unbrick using BoardDiag ... That was a fun learning experience. ]
I'm stumped and still digging for more info. I am very new to android, but have plunked around many years ago with Gentoo so I have a small amount of familiarity with linux.
Does anyone have any hints or tips, or knows what the heck I'm doing wrong, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi!
I just tried to change from RCMixHD (D2EXT) to CM7.
As first, I flashed the AlphaRev CM7 image via Android Flasher and right after that the newest radio version via recovery (32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17). Since the radio is flashed, i was unable to flash anything in recovery mode, so i decided to format everything, wipe all data so that I just lost my current ROM. It still didn't work, so i decided to reflash the Recovery via Android Flasher and now I can't even boot into the recovery menu. For now I can only boot into the HBOOT and use the fastboot. I got Micro-SD adapter to put anything to my SD-Card, but currently i got no idea what to do. Are there any ROMs i can flash with fastboot?
Got any hints to unbrick the recovery?
Current overview of information:
Desire is S-OFF
No current ROM (full data wipe)
Recovery unbootable (stucks at AlphaRev splashscreen)
HBOOT bootable
SD Card formatted with 5,5gb FAT32 and 2gb EXT4
Got Android SDK installed on my computer
Flash CWM 2.5.0.7 or amon ra via fastboot, make sure it's the desire version and md5 matches. Then install a rom.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Or go back to stock with RUU for your phone and start again
Thanks for now!
Just flashed the CWM manually with fastboot and i can boot into the recovery again.
However, the recovery is still hanging up when I do any actions related to the sdcard. No update.zip, no manual chooses possible, no wipe.
But for me, it looks like it's not the sdcard which currently ****s up everything, it seems to be the phone itself. I can still mount my sd in recovery, i can also format everything manually, but as soon as i try to install or choose a factory reset, the recovery ends up in a black screen.
--------
edit:
Okay. Looks like i fixed it now by wiping dalvik, battery stats, cache and then wiping data.
Still confused why it works now, but thank you for pushing me into the right direction. Now i can get everything back to work. Thanks!
why hello there!
Has been a while since i had to recover a phone from a worst case scenario, so i thought i could just revive this thread, as there is no desire 310 subforum yet
Rooted it successfully, read a lot of threads regarding MTK-based phones and thought i might be able to get more out of it, as i wasn't completely fine with 4.2.2 installed on a brand new phone.
However, i ended up with trying to install a custom recovery as described [here(would be a link if i were allowed to post them)]. The whole process gave no error, everything looked fine, ending with a "success!"-message, followed by a reboot, showing just the HTC splash... and a reboot... and a reboot... and.. well i guess you know what happened next.
Based on a whole lot of different threads, this might not be the end of my phone, as i can still see the [preloader(would be a picture if i were allowed to link it)] in my device manager, which basically means "hi, i'm not completely dead and you might find a way to recover me".
The question is: how?
I tried out SP Flash tool and MTK Flash tool so far. both programs find the phone when i get it ready to download my previously made backup (hey. i might not exactly know what i'm doing there, but at least i saved everything before i wrecked it! ).
The problem is: I just get an[error message(look above)] about some failed download to SRAM sorcery, which sounds cool and important but doesn't give me a clue about what i'm doing wrong or how to fix it. (cable ok tested 3 different cables, including the one the device was shipped with, also tested it on my PC running win 8.1 x64 and another one running win 7 x86)
Does anyone have an idea how i could get at least a working bootloader/recovery back to my device?
Tell me if you need any extra information
I also link an attachment including the log file created by SP Flash Tool.

Well. That's it. Thanks in advance for anything that may be posted in here

I have quite a special case here....The story goes...
I bought a NEXUS7 2013 like two years ago and rooted it with Teamwin.
A few month later, I dropped it while charging and broke the MicroUSB Input and wasnt able to charge it. That was not a huge problem because I bought a wireless charger. The only problem was: I couldnt connect it to the computer. And teamwin was still running in the background.
Now that android lollipop has arrived, I tried to update the system.
But because of teamwin, It refused to happen. I tried a few times and ANOTHER threat appeared. Android wouldnt let me download the system update anymore. It said: Insufficient space to download. I had like 3Gb left???

I think there was a way to flash Lolipop whithout connecting the tablet to a pc, but that would Erace all the data I have in this tablet. Since I cannot connect it to a pc AND do not have a memoryStick plot, The only thing I can do is to upload everything on drive or something, but that would take a hell of a lot of time.....
Pls help me! I really want lollipop!
Goal: System update WITH teamwin installed, WITHOUT erasing the data and WITHOUT connecting to a pc.
Problem: MicroUSB input BROKEN
My Tablet: NEXUS7 2013, Android 4.4.2( I had teamwin since then, couldnt update it.), ROOTED!
THANKYOU!! Oh and I am quite the bigginer, so pls explain every step!
Hi there,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
Stand by

If you want to stay on stock, I'm not sure there's an easy answer since you cannot connect to a PC.
But if you're already rooted and using a custom recovery, you can follow these steps to flash any custom ROM (there may be a stock zip floating around here somewhere, cleanrom and AOSP grogg's way will also both be close to a stock experience).
1. First, back up all the data you care about in case something goes wrong
2. Update your recovery - download the latest TWRP (teamwin) recovery image to your device (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/flo), then flash the image to your recovery partition. I recommend using the Flashify app from the Playstore. Once it's installed and opened, click to flash a recovery image, select the recovery .img file, and confirm, then reboot (reboot to recovery if you want to confirm the flash was successful).
3. Download a ROM zip you want to flash, and the appropriate Gapps package if needed (and maybe the latest SuperSU zip for good measure, for gaining root if the rom you flash does not have root access built-in). You can find all of this by searching the forums here.
4. Reboot to recovery.
(4.1. - make a nandroid backup in TWRP)
5. Wipe everything but internal storage (system, cache, dalvik, and data).
6. Flash ROM (as well as SuperSU zip and Gapps if needed).
7. Reboot, be patient, first boot may take awhile on lollipop
8. Profit!

Hello thanks for reading,
I've spent about 2 days trying to figure this one out so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've flashed it back to stock rom "hotdogb_14_O.22_210127.ops" with the MSM tool and flashed recovery TWRP to it, but I am consistently receiving the error
" Failed to mount '/system_ext' (Block device required)" in TWRP when i'm trying to write zip files and disable encryption.
when it comes to install anything, I get this same message and it fails - where am I going wrong? i've tried wiping it and repair as ext4 but nothing, same deal... any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Yeah, all unlocked and ready to go else wouldnt let me boot into twrp without that first. I tried it with the latest version of android 11 and it didn't have the same message but still gave me a cant mount /opm (or something close to this) error message.... I feel like its something simple that I just lack the knowledge of

Did u "mount data" while in twrp before formatting data?
Morning Huey, No I did not, I am about to try it again right now just restoring via MSM and i'll give it a go
I've been following the guide at https://www.kali.org/docs/nethunter/installing-nethunter-on-the-oneplus-7/
but it's not for the 7T so maybe theres something missing, ive even tried using the older versions they suggest on there with no luck so far

This phone is running stock software and has never altered / unlocked / rooted.
I've tried factory reset from within the settings menu and restoring backup, I've also tried wipe and reset from the recovery menu and not using my backup or installing anything and it still rebooted after 35mins up time, the device is not hot not has it been dropped.
I've also tried reinstalling the latest firmware but could only get this to work from within the setting and selecting download latest package.
I tried to download the latest recovery firmware and copy to SD CARD, naming as update.zip and it did not try to flash when I used the recovery boot (power off and power on holding power and volume), I also tried from the settings, about phone, MIUI press it a lot and then under the dots choose select package but it tells me it's not allowed to install an unofficial package.
I've tried to contact customer service and had the 'thank you we will respond in 48 hours', I think something may have been corrupted on the last MIUI update and it's very annoying as it's my Wife's phone and my Poco X3 NFC has been brilliant.
I can't seem to find other way to try and clean install the software, please can anyone relate to these issues and offer some advice on how I may be able to flash the current software over itself , of course it could be a hardware fault but it seems too much of a coincidence it is since updates have been received.
