[LG Optimus L90] SMOKYxPANDA:
So I have an LG D415 and I don't know if it's bricked, softbricked, hardbricked or whatever, i'm really a noob and would really appreciate some help, I've included a picture, that shows what pops up when I try entering "Download mode" but I've already tried flashing the KDZ files, I've tried factory resetting the phone, nothing seems to work, phone always shows 0% battery even after charging for over an hour, and so I tried getting into the fastboot commands and stuff, I extracted the laf dz from the kdz files, renamed it to laf.img, put it in the same folder as my fastboot drivers (not even sure if I have the correct drivers) I open up command prompt inside the folder, type in "Fastboot flash laf laf.img" and the following appears in cmd:

target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes

sending 'laf' (13312 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.586s]

writing 'laf'...

FAILED (remote: unknown command)

finished. total time: 0.739s

I feel like I am missing something or missing some steps, I've got the laf partition, the fastboot drivers(I think) phones in fastboot mode even though at the top it says download mode, no idea as to what to do or try next, if anybody could help it would be very much appreciated...

What ROM are you using? I think you should try flashing the bootstack with recovery from here >> https://xdaforums.com/lg-l90/development/bootstack-kk-l-l90-t3118632. When you flash the bootstack, recovery gets rewritten with an old version of twrp so you probably want to have an IMG of twrp to update to the latest version.
[LG Optimus L90] SMOKYxPANDA:
I'm not aware of what ROM the phone is using, and I don't even know if the bootloader is unlocked, or if the phone has TWRP or root, and I don't want to mess the phone up even more (if that's even possible) phone was a friends and he gave it to me, said I could keep it if I could fix it, and i don't currently have a working phone, so it would be really nice to fix this one, i'm really a noob when it comes to this stuff, but I'm willing to learn if that's what it takes to fix the phone, I also included a link that shows a picture of the information that appears when i type in "fastboot getvar all" in command, not sure if that could help you

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0shRlbnxbQpR09LNDljU0k0dWM/view?usp=sharing
[LG Optimus L90] 0000.0000.00:
So the first to do is run the command fastboot oem unlock with the phone connected to your computer with fastboot. Then download the latest twrp from https://dl.twrp.me/w7/twrp-3.1.1-0-w7.img and flash it with fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-w7.img making sure that you move the twrp IMG to the directory where fastboot is unless fastboot is on your path where you can just flash it from cmd in the downloads folder. After that, try to factory reset the phone and it should boot into twrp where I would flash the lollipop bootstack linked above with adb sideload "zip name here" where you put the full filename of the zip in zip name here and remove the quotes, boot into the download mode thing which is fastboot and reflash recovery with the instructions above.

Also, are you trying to save any data?
[LG Optimus L90] SMOKYxPANDA:
No, i'm not trying to save any data, I want a fresh start, the problem when trying the "fastboot oem unlock" command is that it gives me an error, again i put a link below to show you what appears when trying that command..

[LG Optimus L90] 0000.0000.00:
Something probably happened..

Can you please send the results of fastboot getvar all so I can check.
[LG Optimus L90] SMOKYxPANDA:
I had already sent it, but here it is again:

[LG Optimus L90] 0000.0000.00:
Then try flashing twrp and the bootstack and Tell me how it goes from there.
[LG Optimus L90] SMOKYxPANDA:
How can I flash TWRP?

I've got a TWRP file named "TWRP_2.8.0.0_26.09.14_L90.img"

Tell me where to go from there, and also, the phone isn't even detected using the command "adb devices" it says list of devices and does'nt ever show anything...
[LG Optimus L90] 0000.0000.00:
Flash twrp by first moving the twrp IMG to where fastboot is and running fastboot flash recovery TWRP_2.8.0.0_26.09.14_L90.img with the phone in the download mode thing and connected to the computer.

Also, could you please re-run fastboot getvar all even if you have already run it because its output probably changed and send me an image of what it shows.

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------

After that, run fastboot reboot recovery to reboot into recovery. Press the advanced button and then press the button that says adb sideload with the touchscreen and start it. Then to install the zip run adb sideload zipname where zipname is the name of the zip you want to flash.

After that boot back into the download mode thing to reflash recovery and then reboot into recovery with fastboot reboot recovery. After that I would flash the zips for a ROM and optionally gapps with adb sideload.
[LG Optimus L90] SMOKYxPANDA:
This is what I get:

[LG Optimus L90] 0000.0000.00:
Were you able to flash recovery and boot into it?
[LG Optimus L90] SMOKYxPANDA:
No, you can observe in the picture where it gives me the same error message, unknown command
[LG Optimus L90] 0000.0000.00:
Could you please send me a picture of the output of fastboot devices.

How did you get a V20? I sent my V10 for repair(even though it was out of warranty LG accepted to repair it)
[Verizon LG V10] ericpbritt:
Paid it off and upgraded....they wouldn't cover it under warranty. Got it in December a year and some change ago. I still have it, would love if there was a way to repair it.....
[Verizon LG V10] albannotosska:
Actually I send it off to lg. They told me they can repair it for free even though it was out of warranty! All because of bootloop. Maybe you can send it too
[Verizon LG V10] ericpbritt:
Well, they said on the website to send it in for repair. They never mentioned a charge so does that mean they fix it free?
[Verizon LG V10] jymmiphreak:
I bought my v10 used. about 3 months later, it did the bootloop thing. I believe it was partly my fault, though. I was outside messing around in the yard and I sat my phone on my picnic table in the sun without thinking. about half an hour later, i picked it up to use it and it was in the process of shutting itself down due to overheating. At least, that's what it said on the screen. next day, I was inside using it as a mtg life counter for my son and I, and it shut down and bootlooped... No saving it... I tried everything... As for my question, would lg fix it for me out of warranty if I bought it used, or do they require proof of purchase?
[Verizon LG V10] ejn:
I just got mine fixed for free even though it's 6 months after the warranty expired. They did require proof of purchase. A simple bill of sale might work. I don't know.
[Verizon LG V10] Haxcid:
Mine died the other night. Just locked up then shut down, now it powers on shows the android logo and powers off. Took over the Verizon store, I guess I have an extended warranty because the guy said I would get one sometime today. no charge. I wish I could afford to buy a different phone at this time.
[Verizon LG V10] s_wall98:
I've had the bootloop issue twice. The first was10 months after purchase and Verizon gave me a refurb. The 2nd was10 months after that and Verizon wouldn't touch it but LG fixed it. I did the online chat with LG and mentioned that I didn't have the proof of purchase and that it was a replacement also. She sent me a form to sign stating that it was my phone and legal mumbo jumbo. I sent it in and 7 days later I got it back.

Id give it a shot with the chat and I'd say they'll fix it.

They were a hell of a lot better to deal with than Verizon that's for sure.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Luhccas-X10:
Hey everyone!

I have a question for y'all!

What can i do with s-off (but locked bootloader) besides changing the cid or mid?

Sent from my HTC 10!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Tarima:
-You have more access to firmware partitions, you can flash different firmwares, downgrade firmwares, change modems, etc.

-You can flash different region software, by changing your mid and cid as you said.

- If you do ever unlock your bootloader, you can use Sunshine to set it back to Locked and not just relocked.

- having your bootloader locked with s-off allows you to use apps like android pay without needing to flash custom kernels (it's been reported unlocking your bootloader trips safetynet and breaks android pay).

That's what I use s-off for.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Luhccas-X10:
Thank you very much [MENTION=3862046]Tarima[/MENTION]!

Another question that came into my mind now!

Without unlocking the bootloader but S-OFF'ed, root is possible? (i don't use android pay)

Sent from my HTC 10!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Tarima:
Yes you can root with s-off/locked. In fact, it's recommended to do s-off/locked rather than s-off/unlocked. One you're s-off you can flash TWRP, root, etc.

I know, I know, there are a million of these threads, however none seem to answer a question I have. Unless I skipped that one thread that does answer my question.

I'm sure my LG is way past the point of being repaired and so I want to wipe my data off my phone before selling it for parts. The phone is not rooted, is running 5.0.1., and does not boot into download mode (either crashes or loops me into a bootloop/green screen). How could I wipe all my data from the current state my phone is in?

Things I have tried as solutions:

-Flash with the LGFlashtool V.1.8.1.1023 from another thread [Failed/ does not complete past 0%]

-Install root [Phone crashed before successfully installing, when I was able to boot into download mode]

>I have tried using Kingroot, which did not work.

Phone state:

-Bootloop [LG bootscreen or Green/Black "Error" page]

>Sometimes will not even boot at all

-Can be detected by my pc but I am unable to transfer files

-Running Lollipop 5.0.1. and the model is d852 with Rogers

Any kind guidance is appreciated!

Thanks for posting you guys, Complete noob to this,

5. After Hard reset just run Vinnys app.

Sounds to easy when you write it down . Thanks again.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shogunmark:
Alot of this info can be found over at M$ if you know what to search for, plus you can utilize xml for lots of different commands. For example this script below will create a folder "test folder" in the "programs" directory, then after it creates it then it copies "test.exe" from the cab file and places it in the "test folder".

<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="%CE1%\test folder" translation="install">
<characteristic type="MakeDir" />
<characteristic type="test.exe" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Extract">
<parm name="Source" value="CE1\test folder\test.exe" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

Just an FYI i am a noob to the xml stuff, but have picked up most of it pretty quick... what i post in this thread is the things i am picking up along the way. Its kinda like my personal notepad that can be displayed publicly :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] arexben:
Great thread; very useful information. Would you say the best way to "import" these settings is to create a cab with them inside of the provisioning xml, or would you use the other method described in this post (using that program someone else posted)?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shogunmark:
i would say it depends on your needs... what prompted this is that i created cab to install all my settings since i flash alot. So i use a cab, then i can import my ringtones, etc... however i am also interested in the other method as i should be able to pretty much accomplish the same function... i would say play around with it and see what works best for you. I personally like using OCP's wince cab manager which does allow xml files for provisioning.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] elosogrande7076:
I have followed this example to the T and its still not working. I have tried making it into a cab, and i have tried loading the xml file using Slueth's UC....any idea what i am doing wrong. When i make a cab file from it, it either does nothing or says installation fails. Im not sure if the xml file has to be name something special or if im missing a step, but any insight is greatly appreficated. Thank you.
