How to Flash Stock Rom

WARNING: Internal SD content will be erased
To begin with go here and download the ROM of your country/region
Secondly download smartflash and drivers from here and install them
Now run SmartFlashTool_P990.exe
Turn the phone off,remove the battery and connect the phone to pc via usb while holding down the vol.down button.
Now you should be able to see the software upgrade screen, and COM port of smartflash will change automatically.
Now in smart flash select "ROM Copy D/L"
Make sure that "Normal Mode" is checked and "Erase Cal" is NOT checked
In AP Bin click browser and select the (BIN) file
In CP Bin click browser and select the (FLS) file
Click start, sit back and wait
I'll try to remember next time that I return to stock rom record it and upload it
Here is the video I said i would record

Yes i do it many time and works very good.
The flash take about 7 minutes

I. Thought you had to nvflash to put stock rom back on device? Or is that just if the phone is bricked?

Hello,
Sorry for my english.
Yesterday, i want to flash the new 606 baseband on my LG O2X.
I use smartflash but i was wrong in using this program.
I have cheked the box "Erase CP" and now my O2X does'nt find the network. My phone send "carte incorrect" or "No network".
My SIM work in another phone and another SIM work in my phone.
I try to flash all the other baseband like 208, 318 or 405 but each time the problem is the same, i have no network.
I don't know what to do.
Thank you.

You have to turn off your phone, connect it to usb and press the vol.down button at the same time

A few questions first:
What ROM did he try to flash?
Did he try to flash it through Clockwork Recovery or ROM Manager?
When you try to turn the phone on, does the backlight come on the screen or anything? Or does it just sit there without even making an attempt to turn on?
Flashing the wrong ROM would not hard brick your phone. The install of the ROM would simply fail. If anything, it sounds like your friend tried to flash a ROM and the battery either died or was taken out during flashing. Please post back so we can all try to help.

He is talking about me
I flashed it through CWM and went to restart and now the phone is dead
No lights nothing no vibrate it simply will not turn on
flashed it with
O2X FLAIR GB v4 REVOLUTION FINAL (based on LG v20L)
for optimus
From what I am thinking The power button is no longer assigned?
I am guessing

So the ROM flashed but when you went to reboot, that's when the phone froze up?
Are you 100% sure there was enough battery life when you flashed it? You really might have hard-bricked it. I figured the ROM would just simply fail installing because that's usually what happens.

I honestly don't know what to say. If the phone is completely unresponsive then it very well could be a hard-brick. The only thing you can do then is call Verizon, tell them that you had a software update for your Revolution and the phone shut off in the middle of the update and now will not come on at all. They'll probably send you a free one (hopefully). That's really about the only thing I can think of. Have you tried just plugging it in to see if it charges at all? Plug it in and see if either the screen will come on or you at least get the LED light to come on. If not then do what I said a second ago and call Verizon.

Yeah I get nothing, they are going to send me a new one. Thanks anyway.

Yeah I've been there, it sucks really bad. The reason why it happened other than the fact that the ROM is for a different phone, is because the ROM has a boot.img that is not compatible with the Revolution. So once you changed the boot.img the phone was no longer able to boot up. At least that's what I think about it.

You can nvflash to a custom ROM and then later revert back to a stock ROM......read slowly and understand....
With a custom ROM you can get access to the pc suite in some....try using the thread to find...think most remove it as we have other good recovery backup apps....

[Q] Sprint Flex stuck on Fastboot.

HI ALL,
I have successfully rooted my HTC and Samsung devices before but I am very new to LG phones.
I did root with ioroot22 (worked perfectly).
Then I attempted to install CWM with flashify app.
But in the process I flashed CWM incorrectly (I think)
When I boot phone I am just stuck in fastboot black screen.
Am I screwed? Seems like Sprint TOT or KDZ files are not available yet.
Anyone know what I can do to get phone working again. Any help is very much appreciated
Please note I can get into CWM when I press - & power but can't really do anything beyond that.

Any solution from anyone?

That just brings me into CWM.

So you are actually able to get into recovery and use it? What happens when you try to make a back up? Does it let you? I know these questions don't help you. I could probably upload the factory recovery and we can try to put it back on in fastboot mode

Seems you should be able to get your kdz file from LG.

Repace xxx with your 15 digit imei.
resultant page has a url about half way down. Use that and it downloads your firmware from LG.
Haven't tried but you could maybe use this installer to reflash:

Yea that didnt work, i think i damaged my my OS.
To the other poster, mrphil101, putting my IMEI didnt work on that website. Dont think LG has publicly released the kdz file yet.
Regardless, i was able to bring life back into my phone with the help of a member name, wolfgart. He was able to somehow provide me both the .tot & .dll for my sprint variant.
If you guys need any help on LG phones, he is the man.

How were you able to get in touch with him? I think he is banned from trying to sale the tot files. I would gladly buy the tot file so that we could all have it

to bad...T-mo just released their phones too. Must be a sprint things. ISP's sure can hose things up with their firmwares, all that bloatware crap and untimely updates. I have been on nexus's for a long time; firmware and bootloader locks, I had forgotten how much of a pain they make it. But that said, this is the most satisfied I have been with a stock phone.
