My P970 is bootlooping after a bad framework mod...
I need to boot into CWM with the combo keys power/vol/home but i don't remember how...
Help please, i don't wanna factory reflash...
Look into my noob how to, you got two possibilities. Either fire the hard keys, until CMW pops up, or set up adb, and do a adb reboot recovery.
What you need is this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22121547&postcount=22
Let me explain:
Connect your device through USB.
Download it then DON'T flash the recovery... instead just click reboot-recovery.cmd (reboot-recovery). It will work on soft bricked situations.
This is what I use when testing ROMS. QtADB too is handy and can boot into recovery while in bootloop with single clicks, has logcat, can transfer/push files in system and SD.
This is adb reboot recovery for dummies.
Thx, but i don't have my laptop with me atm...
I can only see LG logo, and about 2 seconds of the bootanimation... Is that enough for adb recovery ?
I prefer to boot with the power vol softkey combo, easier for me (i'm on a train lol, i have time to reflash lol)
This power vol solfkey combo, what do you mean with it? I never heard of it... I only know the possibility to fire any hard key, as long as softkeys are flashing, and then when you are lucky, you ll reboot to recovery as well, but I hope you get it solved anyway
depend on your rom. what rom that you use?
stock rom (by default) doesn't have key combo to enter recovery except you had flashed eRecovery
Nova Rom and Zeus Rom have eRecovery. CM7 has PBR
Just flashed Marvel Rom before crash... And Marvel does NOT have option in power off menu to reboot in recovery... So now, i don't have (e)recovery ?
I can confirm, with Zeus, i tested i could boot in recovery with phone powered off

in marvel's changelog:
version 3.0
- Fixed Music Player (no more FCs) - reported in 2.1.1
- Fixed landscape notification toggles - reported in 2.1.1
- Added eRecovery - you can now press "G" key during bootup to enter recovery (credit to Huexxxx) - requested in 2.1.1
- Changed default launcher to Zeam Launcher for more customization but very light in memory with customized ICS icons. credit to the developer of Zeam Launcher : https://market.android.com/details?id=org.zeam&hl=en
- Disabled shutdown sound, for faster shutdown.
- More ICS looks in Messaging, Contacts etc.
- Added startup splash of "Marvel ROM" - (not a very good design though) - maybe i need a graphic artist on this.
- Gesture key back to original LG default stock ROM function.
- More ROM cleanup - smaller ROM zip size.
- more to come

Back to business !
Thanks everybody ! ADB recovery worked !
Back to home, tested directly ADB, all wiped and Marvel reflash !
I'll try later "G" key for recovery, the only key i've never used in this phone !
Once again, thanks everybody !
You dont need to use G key, you can also use Vol keys. Just repeatedly press them. DONT HOLD them, but turn it on the device and then start to repeatedly press any hard key. This will allows you to reboot to recovery.
Its not possible in adb recovery reboot
It does a factory rest ...

adb reboot recovery only works with CWM installed. Otherwise youll get a factory reset. But you could have read about that in my noob how to
Since this is solved, thread closed.

I recently installed CM7 after rooting my phone with Superoneclick and installing Clockworkmod. However, after installation of CM7, i managed to boot up the system, played around with it and realised that i needed to install the google addon as well. So i rebooted the phone to enter into CWM recovery, however the problem started.
My phone is now stucked on the LG logo screen and would not change. I left the phone in that state till the battery went dead. Recharged the phone and it remained on that screen.
Tried to connect the phone to the PC to flash it with smartflash, but it doesnt work at all. I removed the battery and held the volume down button while plugging in the usb cable. All i see is the phone stucked on the white LG logo screen.
Is there any way that i can reformat the contents of the phone or is my phone certified?
All help would be much appreciated!
Power up directly to cwm by pressing power button and volume down key at the same time.
Once in cwm, full wipe including /system and reflash cm and gapps.
Good luck.
I have tried that method as well. Sorry. Forgot to mention it in my initial post. It didn't work. I have tried to pull the battery, hold down the volume down and power button for at least 20 times now. Each time i get the same screen. The CWM menu does not come up.
Any other ways?

Hmm.....if u can't power to cwm directly then perhaps try smartflash to any stock rom.
1. Download any stock rom
2. Start smartflash app from pc
3. In power off mode, just press volume down to boot to software update screen. Start smartflash stock rom.
4. Boot up stock rom
5. Install rom manager and flash cwm from rom manager. (Or download cwm from Rusty! Cwm thread)
6. Boot to recovery
7. Flash cm rom
8. Flash gapps
Remove battery, hold both vol buttons and plug in USB. Screen should stay blank, but Windows will pick up an APX device. Now NVFlash back to stock and start again.
yup, tried the exact method that you suggested too. But it doesnt work. Still gets stuck at the LG logo.

This method worked! But i have another problem, windows found an APX device, tried to install it but failed. It says driver was not found. Do i have to install a specific driver for this to work? Thanks!
Yes, good point: http://android.modaco.com/topic/335...k-rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15032011/
I have managed to flash the phone and it is back working now. Thank you so much for your help rusty and temasek!
Hi, first post, hope the thread is not too old.
Unfortunately this is my best chance.
I have the same problem on my O1:
Updated from mik's beta 6.5.7 to beta 6.5.8 with the clockwork manager, at the reboot, I was stuck on lg logo.
Unfortunately usb + both volume buttons didn't work.
It remains still at the lg logo.
Pressing home + both volume, it repeately reboots.
In every case I can't go in recovery mode, so I can't wipe the system folder.
Any help will be appreciated,
thank for your time!
PS: sorry, maybe thread in p500, cm7 will be more appropriate.
hold power button + volume down button for 5-10 seconds may work, phone will reboot into recovery mode, then you are able to flash a stock rom or restore your nandroid-backup (if you made one)
good luck, hope it helps you
thanks, I saw a useful post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18531050#post18531050
Then I proceded as you wrote.
Now I'm stuck at adroid logo, without the chance to wipe cache.
The recovery does not start: loading bar and then forced reboot...
I don't know what to do
nvflash
maybe you try this link
android.modaco.com/topic/335416-nvflash-setup-instructions-drivers-links-active/
Sorry, i don't get the link working, copy it in your browser, then it should work (i'm posting with my phone that's why the link is'nt correct, but it works with browser, i tried it out)
If the link doesnt work, search 'nvflash lg p990 instructions' with google, you'll see the modaco website with the instructions and the download links

Thank you. A few hours ago, I managed to make it working.
Thanks for your answers, I appreciated.
nvflash is the way to go. Always make sure to use the usb ports on your motherboard (back of your computer) and not some usb hub or so.
Had a black screen for 8 hours, not able to boot, flash, recover or anything.
Changed usb port and I was able to flash the phone again.
was trying out the app "Anim Mod" installed chose animation reboot..... now stuck in a bootloop. volume and power combo dosent work please please help!!
What?you mean you can't enter software upgrade mode?
nope i cant.... tried the known key combinations cant even get it to go into recovery or s/w update mode
tried pulling out the battery sim card and micro SD and then hold volume up and plug in the usb cable?
got it sorted.... the ONLY key combo that worked to get into recovery for me was Huexx method
-------------------------------------------------
WHAT TO DO IF GOT A BOOTLOOP
1.- Remove battery *edit** I didnt remove battery, I plugged out the usb instead**
2.- Power on your phone again, and once the 4 leds start flashing, repeatedly press a physical key (g-button or volume rocker) until your phone reboots and ir access to CWM
3.- Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache, then reflash the ROM again
4.- Reboot and wait

!!NOTICE!!
Stay clear of the app "Anim Mod" it bootloops your phone!!! (for Zues rom at least...... true story bro.... =P)
Troubleshooting required..!!!

And if it doesn't work, you can connect your phone to your computer, start adb shell and type in 'reboot recovery'. Your phone will enter cwm and you can restore a backup, reflash a rom..
I use this method if I get a bootloop. (I'm developing a rom.) I think it's very helpful, because you don't must use smartflashtool.
cakebomb.
in some situation adb cannot connect the phone and you have to use the smartflash tool
Anim Mod bootloop
I have the same problem here! I got bootloop after using anim mod. I'm able to go to stock recovery. I had backup my file then did factory reset but problem still not solved. I had backup my framework-res.apk file but it's not on a flashable zip format.
i've tried using apk multi tool on trying to do and adb push but it's not working
what can I do next?
connect your phone to pc in s/w upgrade mode->pull out your battery, hold + and plug in the usb in phone..and after that, use smart flash tool to flash firmware(v20) with CWM included..and after firmware flash your phone will enter in CWM recovery, now from CWM you need to flash supersu from sd card..after flashing firmware and superuser, DO a data,cache,davlik cache wipe !..and just after this you can exit from CWM(reboot)
Here's a link to all tools that you need to repair your phone. You need to use smartflash tool, a V20 firmware with cwm( you can download it from here), and put the Superuser.zip to your sd card..and install USB driver if you haven't installed it yet
I use this method every time when my phone is stuck on bootloop or if I've flashed a ROM that doesn't have root..or other situations.. This method brings you to a rooted gingerbread with CWM(this is all what you need, because from here you can do what you want..for example flashing which ROM you like )
!!! You can use this method anytime...doesn't matter which ROM you have or if your phone is rooted or not. After using this method your phone will be fully rooted, will have CWM recovery and android 2.3 gingerbread !!!
Hi,
I've got a gingerbread ROM installed, and am having a problem with CWM.
At the moment, all I get is the options to boot WebOS, boot CM, WebOS recovery, shutdown, or reboot.
I have no options to mount storage or flash files, and have tried to re-flash CWM a number of times with no success.
Does anyone know what I've done wrong?
Also, if I go into the USB mode (power + vol up), on exiting this mode, the Touchpad won't do anything for about 10 minutes plus - just black screen & nothing happens when I press power button, or any other combination of buttons.
Help would be appreciated, as I can't install new roms etc from CWM, which is quite annoying!
Thanks!
EDIT: I've managed to fix this now - sorry for post! Cheers, and feel free to delete this thread.

Your might want to try PWR + HOME to get into Recovery Mode screen, then Wipe Data (Factory Reset), when done remove battery, wait 10 sec., then insert battery and boot normally... has worked for me on the orphaned S5830D SGAce w/ DTLKI4 f/w. BUT, be aware, all user settings and installed apps are vaporized !!! Stuff on /SDCARD is safe.

One package? Aren't you supposed to use the one with the 5 different files and not just one? To make a completely clean stock rom install, I mean. If that's what you want.
I think he(or she) want a stock rom only. You need to do a full wipe after flash with odin. Maybe touch recovery helps you, but i cant find any . You can go to download mode by "adb reboot download" , i think it cant success without wipe.
Or maybe try to flash a rom with 5 files as SuperAce609 said.
No. You can't flash 2.3.6 directly.
You need to flash 2.3.3 first , then 2.3.4 and last 2.3.6 using Odin.

@OP

so simple.....
lol. u guys didnt even try to understand what his problem in the first place. atleast read the first post properly before giving suggestions.
the poor guy had his vol up and down button broke, and u suggest him to wipe data in recovery.
thing is his vol up and downn button doesnt work! so how can he navigate in recovery? lol
btw op, u said that u flashed onepackagee file via odin. so how did u manage to go into download mode in the first place when your vol down button is busted?
if u managed to go into download mode again, this time flash the full package instead.

My phone was running 2.2.1 Froyo. I tried to upgrade it to 2.3.6 using process mentioned here. http://androidadvices.com/update-gal...wktm-firmware/
The Odin completed successfully and restarted the phone. But the phone was running spanish language. I was getting an alert after every 3-4 seconds. But i could not read it as it was spanish. I restarted the phone and it went in boot loop. The phone keeps rebooting every 2 seconds.
I can't get into recovery mode but I can get to download mode.
I have tried flashing many ROMs from sammobile.com but none of them is working.
Hello, first of all I ask sorry for my English is very bad,
Now, I have a problem I have damaged the POWER and HOME buttons, and I'm on JVU stock
* cm10.2 would like to install from a recovery but without the home button I can not install it, the solution would someone pass me some RECOVERY TOUCH, maybe some serious TWRP or something, to install the rom from whether thank you very much
Search on Google Playstore for a widget that can reboot into recovery then flash cf-root to get CWM and root. http://bit.ly/RgA6YS
EDIT: CMW uses the power button to navigate so if you have a damaged power button not sure if you'll be able to use it anyway, only other option is to flash a touch screen version of CWM.
EDIT: PhilZ Touch recovery, but i think it's bundled with a CM11 kernel? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588649
EDIT: If you can find a widget that'll reboot you into recovery mode you could flash ''Mackay CM9'' http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660668 it has TWRP 2.2.2.0 recovery and it's the rom I'm using. highly recommended.

Thanks Man! but i need to navigate and select Wipe data and install zip from sd card but i dont have home button! anyway thanks:laugh:
The only thing I can suggest is to flash a rom (if you can boot into download mode) which has touch recovery, Mackay CM9 has TWRP. sorry can't help much.
EDIT: actually there's an app called "button remapper" (needs root) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464 maybe you could try remapping the faulty buttons.

In CWM you don't need home button at all. Navigating with volume buttons / confirm with power button.
I would suggest you to install Mackay ICS 2014 CM9 based. It features TWRP, it is much faster than CM10.2 and has also better battery life.
Around pages 3-5 mohammad.affaneh has posted flashable zip SystemUI (just link to it) which gives you functions power button by touching uppest right screen corner (minutes of the time). Zip doesn't work in other ROMs

You can use USB jig to turn into download mode if necessary and ADB to reboot into recovery.
Once you are rooted, app QuickBoot can do all basic boot commands with just touching a screen.
