Hi Guys!
Here it's the problem I've rooted the phone the last week and I want to give a try to Zeus ROM. I had installed the Rom Manager, but I cannot access to the Recovery menu.
I turn off the phone, and when I turn on I keep pressed the V+ or G button and it's boot normally to the "normal" screen.
I read a lot of threads but I cannot find the solution, I'm sure that this is a nooby question.
PS: sorry for my bad english
Thanks in advance!
Use rom manager to reboot to recovery

Always for the safety keep rom manager app on SD card. After flash you have to instalation rom manager from SD and all will be fine.

How can I install rom manager if something was wrong with the installation of a new Rom, and the phone does not start normally?
Thanks
I see you still really afraid to try
If something weird happen you can always use Smart Flash Tools to reflash stok rom.
Also I sugest you to learn about adb (what is it, how to instal, how to use). Sometimes it really usefull.

this is a important issue..
if you flash a rom that has g recovery (enter recovery when you press g button on startup).. then you can always enter recovery, even if you have a bootloop problem. other roms without g recovery doesn't have that luxery.
if you get bootloop there you will have to unbrick/reflash your phone.. works ok but takes quite a lot of time.
Or just use ADB

Hey noejn, can I just replace the old cwm with this? Or I must remove it first? If so, how?
Thnx

Hi,
Congratulations for that fantastic work.
I ran this Nova Recovery and I selected "Wipe Data" option, to reset to default settings. Then I select the rebbot device option. (Later I wiil install the Nova Rom)
But now when on the boot device they stay on same black screen flashing the 4 below lights.
Can anyone help me?
Lol, when you wipe data it will take a bit more time to boot.
I'm waiting for more than 15 minutes
Is the phone bricked?
As I can't access to any application, is there any way to enter in recovery menu?

If you don't have Nova ROM and you can't boot directly into recovery and you're stuck in the boot whenever you power it on, then you'll have to flash a firmware.

If you haven't nova, you cannot directly boot to recovery. Two ways:
Remove the battery and try again. It will probably fix nothing and may be harmful.
Or go to the firmwares flashing tgread and use method 1 by modaco to reflash stock firmware and do from there.

No, I don't hava a Nova Rom (I have the original rom).
I try remove the batery and power on it again, but the problem keeps.
So, I will try this:
"go to the firmwares flashing tgread and use method 1 by modaco to reflash stock firmware and do from there"

Cannot post the link since I am using Tapatalk, but just Google "P970 firmwares flashing xda" go to it, and read post with calm. Meanwhile, plug in the phone so you don't run out of battery when booting or whatever.

Thank you all for the help
I already have the Nova rom, but I only can unbrick? the phone by the method 2 of the referencied thread.
Ups, I didn't know relax was using ext4 on /cache.
This will cause some problems since the recovery isn't ready for it.
I'll later upload a new version.
Thanks!!! Maybe you can find some time to fix the progress bar, too

If this is only partially functional too, whats the benefit of installing this?
Noejn it's impossible rewrite the bootloader for hardware combination key for enter to recovery for use with all rom?
It's very dangerous for bricking the phone?
Hello.
If you phone is briked and not rebooting. But you flash any Recvoery. Then they must do:
1. Power Off LG Optimus Black
2. Power on
3. Quickly press: Volume Down
4. PROFIT!!!
Worked on any ROM
I think that you first need to flash erecovery or grecovery

True that, should only work, if g- or e-recovery is included in the ROM... If not, there also wont be a boot into cwm, but you mostly can try adb reboot recovery from your PC
Yeah, the easiest is using adb, in my case, i use qtadb, the best, in my opinion
Hum,
I've used this method on my own ROM, on which i didn't integrated e-recovery or g-recovery
(And even on very stock with CWM)

Nope, official CM7 has this function, and it doesn't have g/e-recovery. So I think all the others cm7 based also have it.

It is work on ANY ROM.
If you did't instal g/e-recovery, then it is WORK!

Hi, I have a question about flashing kernels, please help me a little bit
I have kernel semaphore in a JW5 stock ROM but I want to change this kernel for the last voodo's version. I want to know what steps I must follow to install this kernel correctly (i read about scrpits cleaning but I'm not sure how it works and if its neccesary). If it was posible, I don't want to reinstall the ROM or lose applications.
Thank you so much. I hope your answers.
P.D: Sorry for my english
if u have stock kernell you don't need to use cleaning scripts, so
1. turn off phone
2. turn on in download mode (vol down home power)
3. start odin and press reset
4. put your kernel .tar file in pda
5. connect phone via usb to pc (in odin you should have addedd!!)
6. in odin press stert
after reboot you'll have kernel installed

I don' t have stock kernel, I have semaphore
Enviado desde mi GT-I9000 usando Tapatalk 2
then go to cwm, and choose clear semaphore settings (or something like that) reboot, and flash new version.
also if you're changing from semaphore to semaphore you don't have to do it

I've just flashing voodo kernel but I have some bugs. I don't understand why everytime I reboot my phone the SuperSU app needs to update. I update it, next I turn off the phone, I turn it on and the app needs again the update. How can I fix it?
Thanks again!
Try clearing data for superSU, if that doesn't work then uninstall and reinstall it.

Good, did just clearing the data not work?
If it comes back you could also try clearing market data, but hopefully it will be fine now.

No, first I cleared the data but when I rebooted the phone, the "bug" (if it could be called bug) persists. Then, I uninstalled the app using their own option and, without rebooting, I downloaded it from market. It seems that method worked against all odds xDD
Anyway, thanks for the advice of clearing data, if it petsists, I' ve already known what to do

Must be a bug with supersu somehow. If you have cleared it's data, uninstalled and reinstalled it, and cleared market data then i can't see what else you could do.

Hello everyone,
I had to format /system to install a custom rom. The installation aborted so I don't have any os on the phone now.
I can still acess to cwm recovery but not to the download mod (so forget about flashing .kdz). I tried flashing other roms without sucess.
Could someone send me his cwm backup so I could restore to it ? Or just a link for the stock european rom in the format .zip (so I can flash it by cwm ?)
Thanks

was it GB or ICS when you bought the phone for the first time ? if it was GB , thats mean your bootlader is old and maybe you tried to flash newbootlader supported rom cm10.2
try option 4 in AIO (repartition layout and bootlader) then you should select new bootlader. after that you can flash any newbl custom rom like cm10.2, cm11 ect.
