I'm trying to update from an ICS bootloader to a JB one, however when I try to go through the process of starting up in the Fastboot mode, as soon as I hit the Vol Up key, it just sits there with the text saying it is starting the Fastboot mode. I let it sit for a while to see if it was going to do something, but it doesn't. The computer doesn't recognize it at all with it stuck at this screen, and I assume there is supposed to be some sort of new view that comes up. I haven't done anything previously on my Prime other than unlocking it, which was a while ago, but I didn't do anything past that, so I'm not sure what could be going on, it is not bricked and works completely fine other than not being able to get into the fastboot mode. Anyone have any idea what may be wrong?

That is how fastboot works. If you look in device manager on your PC you may see it near the top of the devices. you may need to install the drivers. the universal naked drivers in the development section should work if your pc is looking for drivers for the device
Okay, thanks, it was working the whole time then.
My problem now is, I've been trying to initiate the install of both the JB bootloader and Hairybean TWRP Updater (normal), but no matter what I seem to do, I can't seem to get it to be installed. When I go into the recovery screen, it only shows the wipe data, fastboot, and load android, there's nothing to get into TWRP.

Hold vol down+power and when it vibrates, let go of power. As soon as the screen shows something press volume up, that will start recovery.

Okay, I did that too, but it just resets the device and if I do nothing it loads into Android.

Sorry, I neglected to mention I actually have been doing all of my work based on these very instructions from the androwook page, and it is where I ran into this issue in the first place. I see now based on the skaforey's post that pressing volume up should be the way into recovery, however as I stated to him, it simply resets the device. After restarting with the power + voldown button, let go, and hit volume up (press vol up in 5 seconds to enter RCK), it waits a second, then restarts.
Update before I even bothered to submit this last section: I installed CWM via fastboot, which then enabled me to actually enter a recovery, which then let me install the JB bootloader update and thusly HairyBean. Thanks for all your guys help.
i soft bricked my phone when installing the cyanangen 12 rom, it quit during the setup wizzard. The button combination of down and power release when seeing lg and repressing is not working. PleASE TELL ME i can enter twrp without having to restore my phone to stock. The phone will receive phone calls but that is all it does. otherwise it says setup wizzard quit and endlessly says this when you press ok. please help, despite being in los angeles, i have not found anybody capable of helping me.
Patrick--in so much need...
What is the repressing step? I've never heard of that. Isn't it just vol down and power, then release power while still holding vol down until recovery boots?
Also, do you have adb or fastboot installed on a pc? If so, adb reboot recovery from CMD if in android, or fastboot reboot recovery if in bootloader. Have you tried those?

You don't have to release the buttons, idk why so many people keep saying this. Should be the same as mine.. With the phone off just hold both power and volume down until you see it say Recovery Mode loading, then release. If that doesn't work then try the adb command while plugged in to your computer.

How do you get into bootloader if phone is bricked? It sees the phone, but it won't open up and let me look inside? Thank you
A window comes up and says that the kernal cracked.. My phone is having a hard time getting charged, could this be related?
So i was using RessurectionRemix (a version from last month) and recovery twrp 3.1.0-0 and the phone was working great!
Yesterday i left my phone charging over night and in the morning i wake up to my phone bootlooping!
So i tried different things including everything it says here https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/guide-hard-brick-fix-qualcomm-hs-usb-t3492949 without luck
I can get it into recovery and fastboot but as soon as i let the key combination go the phone stops and just shows a black screen (screen is on) and i cant get into qualcomm recovery to flash!
And the only way to shut off the phone is by holding power + vol up + vol down!
Any solution or suggestions?

connect phone to computer, try force shutdown phone by hard button, ater phone shutdown, immediately release power but keep both volume. Phone maybe will enter Qualcomm flash dead mode, and Flashone will regconize com phone (refresh nedded)
Hope you success ! And believe, if a phone can flash with Qfil or Flashone, almost that phone never die (software)
Are you able to connect to the phone via Vysor, either via Chrome browser or as a standalone app on Windows PC when you do not see anything on the phone screen? Please post if Vysor install goes thru successfully. Hope your developer options/USB debugging are on. I assume your phone boots but may have display issues either hw or sw.

Phone gets recognized but not long enough to do anything (windows makes sound but doesn't install anything and doesn't show up in device manager)
try this guide
https://www.gizmochina.com/2016/11/20/leeco-x820-max-2-super-unbrick-guide/
You have mentioned that you are able to see the device in recovery and fastboot till you release the buttons - does this mean if the buttons are held say in fastboot mode you are able to see the device via "fastboot devices" or in recovery the twrp screen or nothing ever shows up at all? Are the buttons clicking properly? Check individually to make sure - particularly the power button. Does it vibrate at any point of time when you press and hold the power button? Are you able to see any backlight when you say the screen is on?
If there no backlight shine a torch or sunlight from the side of the screen to see anything at all on the screen.
Vysor reports apk not installed when it attempts to download from PC to phone but fails. With Vysor you will have two windows one showing status of phone - this is the main window. The other is the mirrored one - that of the phone when you click view on the main window. I forgot that the phone requires approval to install the apk. Please see the attached thumbnails. Keep touching the screen about 3 cms up from the bottom of the screen (not the phone) to see any change. Hope your touch works.
I know it is quite frustrating to try a number of things. I recently went thru the same on Galaxy S4 to make sure the phone but for the screen works OK prior to ordering the screen. Besides in my case developer options was disabled and touch also did not work. It took about a week of learning and trying to see something on Vysor. I never have used a Sam phone till that time this broken phone was handed over to me.
After a lot of trying i found out that when i keep pressed power + vol down or vol up while connected to pc and device is off it gets recognized as
qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 long as i keep the keys pressed so i tried the flashone method but it just says could not connect
Are Qualcomm drivers loaded on your computer? I have not used flashone. I used QPST to see if phone is connected. I am not sure if they are same.

It doesn't stay long enough in recovery or fastboot to do anything it shuts off after a few seconds even with the buttons pressed after that it just shows a black screen
Phone vibrates when i press power and shows leeco logo (not os logo) and after 1-2 seconds screen goes black and phone vibrates again and shows leeco logo again and just continues looping
if i try to press power + vol up normally it goes into recovery but as soon as recovery is loaded screen goes black (screen on just doesn't show anything) the same goes for fastboot if i press power + vol down it loads fastboot but after 1-2 seconds screen goes black
if i keep pressing keys the phone just stays longer in recovery/fastboot but only 4-5 seconds
I assume you have adb and fastboot. Since you say the screen remains on when booting to recovery open a command prompt at the directory where adb is and issue a command "adb devices" without quotes. Does it just exit without showing any device or throws up some error? Try this irrespective of the black screen.
Have you looked at and tried what is given by @HTC-TYTN2 at post #8? It is for Le Max 2 and you will find a link to Quallcomm drivers too. Do not bother that the link mentions X820 even your Max 2 is 821, 829, etc.
since it happened after charging, you might want to check your cable and battery. best is to get a cheap usb multimeter.

I too thought it could be the battery based on that's the screen goes off. But he also mentioned that the screen remains on but nothing to be seen after a short while. Wanted to suggest slow speed charging probably via a laptop usb as I'm not sure if he used high speed charging resulting in battery issue.
Did you solve the problem?
My phone just died completely! No response at all anymore. I'm contacting the seller now to send the phone back.
Looks like it is a hardware defect! A pretty odd one but nothing i can do anymore. I send it back and post what the problem is as soon as get any information.
Thanks to everyone who tried to help!

Try this:

download file, unzip, open folder, connect phone to USB via fastboot ( phone off phone + hold volume -) . Click to the flash app in your PC. The app should find the phone. Confirm TWRP problem -NO and start flash.
Drivers must be installed.

Hello everyone . I am the owner of a Motorola Z XT1650. I recently made a downgrade from Oreo 8.0 to Nougat 7.0 and after that I made an update from Nougat 7.0 to Nougat 7.1.1. At that moment I managed to put my phone in hard brick. After long searches I managed to bring my phone back to life with the help of Blankflash. Only the phone refuses all adb fastboot commands. If you press the V- and Power buttons nothing happens. the phone goes off and lights up without going into the bootloader mode. It appears to me white: Bootloader logs, and under it red: Start up Failed: Yuor device didn`t start up successfully. Use your computer repair software to repair your device. The white color appears: Switch tools mode where they can change Tools mode config: Disabled or Enabled. Start appears in green. If I click Start I will send to the bootloader logs above with the Yuor device error did not start up successfully. I still have the factory, Recovery mode and restart bootloader, which are red and do not help me. If you press on v- and power does not appear the green robot with fastboot mode. The phone just goes out and on. and I still have white power off. Please help. I've attached some pictures. Someone was telling me something about gpt.bin.
I can not install TWRP, With adb if I try to give orders I refuse them one at a time. With rsd lite I'm giving error at step two even though she sees the phone. I have no idea. All the drivers are installed, everything is ok but the patient does not get up. Thank you .
Hello there!
I received my Poco F1 yesterday and set it up with all the apps and settings I wanted to use (including WhatsApp and Signal Backups with private keys). Unfortunately the phone didn't survive the day - after less than three hours the screen went black and since then stayed like that. Additionally, it heats up like nothing else whenever it is turned on. I tried holding power, power + vol up etc. - the phone seems to reboot and booting up again but the screen stays dark. As I live in the EU and bought the phone here I contacted the seller, who agreed on shipping a new device, but I still have to send back the old and broken one. That's where my problem begins:
- There's already a load of private data and information on the phone I do not want to give to the seller and everyone who might gets the phone in their hands afterwards
- The phone itself still seems to work. I can reach it via adb, reboot to bootloader, reach it via fastboot and reboot back to the operating system
-
Code:
adb shell pm clear xxx
and
Code:
adb shell am broadcast -a android.intent.action.MASTER_CLEAR
both yield a SecurityException
-
Code:
fastboot -w
yields
Code:
FAILED (remote: 'Erase is not allowed in Lock State')
- I do not want to unlock the device, as I don't want to give anyone any reasons to refuse this guarantee case.
Do you have an idea?
Thanks in advance!
Your warranty doesn't void on this device. It was confirmed by CEO Jai Mani. If you still concern for warranty you can later relock it. Use this command - "fastboot oem lock". So stay calm and try this.
Hi and thanks for your suggestion! It looks like I don't have any other choice. Could maybe anyone guide me through what happens when (my screen is completely dark after all )?
So, I can easily go into fastboot mode by doing a "adb reboot bootloader". I will then use the unlock tool to unlock the phone. Does anyone have an exact idea of what will happen next?
Will it reboot automatically or do I have to do it by myself? Will it stay in fastboot mode?
Will it try to set something up or anything else I should not abort after rebooting? How long will this take approximately?
Will all data be lost by only unlocking the phone or will I still be able to "adb shell" into the system after unlocking (w/o accepting the computer's key again of course)?
In case I got stuck, is there a reliable way to go from anywhere into fastboot mode again (to "fastboot -w" and relock)? Which button combo can I use for "completely turn the phone off" - is it the "3min power button" or the "power button and volume up" one? After "fastboot -w", how does the phone behave? Does it reboot automatically and does it do something after that I should not abort? If yes, how long will it take approximately?
I see that these are kind of difficult questions for people who could see what's going on, but after all it's pretty important for me because I can't
Thanks for your help!

First unlocking bootloader takes 3 days. Then after unlocking your all data will be wiped and you automatically boot into the system. If anything goes wrong you can use Mi flash tool to flash miui again in fastboot mode. The most reliable way to boot into fastboot mode is to boot into recovery by pressing volume+ button + power button at the same time and then boot from there. I have never encountered that prob so I can't surely tell about that. Please tell me if it works.

As you seem to be interested in only removing the data (not recovering it), the bootloader unlock will wipe your phone completely and it will automatically boot again into the initial Setup screen where the first screen will be asking for the country. At that point simply power off the phone and you will be done. I am saying this from the personal experience of unlocking the bootloader of this phone.
Hi and thanks for your help! The unlocking & relocking process was completely flawless. Vol + Power Up seems to be the "Turn off"-Combo, by the way
Thanks again!
