Alot of people claims this phone is nearly impossible to brick... i hope they are right :-S
I was trying to install CWM using this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098745
And after reboot, the only thing i get is the white LG logo...
No luck booting into CWM with power + vol dwn
No reaction without battery + vol dwn while plugging in cable to PC...
Just that white LG logo...
Any tips?

You can use NVFlash to flash it to stock rom. Heres how to do it:

[Q] SD permission denied during CWM installation

Hi all,
I've not enough messages to post directly in development forums.
I've just installed the stock ICS v30a via Smartflash (from GB) and rooted via XDA method but now I'm not able to flash the CWM (usually, an easy step). I'm trying to flash the 5.0.2.8 version normally or via the new AIO ToolKit but I get the following error (see also attachment) -->
"failed to copy 'ICS-cwm-5.0.2.8e.img' to '/data/local/ICS-cwm-5.0.2.8e.img': permission denied "
"/data/local/ICS-cwm-5.0.2.8e.img: cannot be open for read: No such file or directory"
"rm failed for /data/local/ICS-cwm-5.0.2.8e.img: No such file or directory"
I've actvated the Debug option and tried to give the write permission to external_sd thru ES file manager (now I see the permission to write is activated to external SD but I'm still not able to flash the .bat)
What can I do? Now I cannot move from ICS stock...
Thanks.
Mario

You can nvflash stock based rom...
And smartflash mode and nvflash mode requires device in their special mode. From your post i suppose you tried it on turned on device on android.
To sum up.
To use nvflash:
Plug cable to phone without battery pressing vol - and +
To use smartflash :
Plug cable to phone with/without battery (depending on phone and software.. On gb smartflash was working with battery, on ICS wi hour...) and pressing vol - or vol + (i dont remember)
Good luck.
And if you have question like in your title, there's place for such things in O2X forum. Don't you see?

I am having the same problem..
The toolkit specifcally instructed us to enable USB debugging so I am guessing it has nth to do with nvflash and smartflash?
Now I am stuck with the stock rom.. Really frustrated
P.S. I am using Windows 8, not sure if it is related..

I'd solved installing Topogigi v28g (which includes the new bootloader, root and CWM) and then DM X1.0 (now 1.1 ).
In the meantime also the AIO Toolkit has been done...
Thanks.

Bootloop, Can't go to recovery mode and device undetectable on Windows... Help?

Hello fellow members,
Before you go and advice me to search the forums before posting; I did that and did not find any solution... Here's my horror story;
I own a Galaxy S (GT-i9000). A while ago I installed Tsunami X on it along with Semaphore. When my phone was booting up, I accidentally removed the battery and when I tried to turn it on, I got stuck on a bootloop. The phone does not go in the recovery mode, and when I put it on download mode it does not get recognized by the computer (used 3 different computers, all with Samsung drivers and Kies.) which means that I cannot use Odin to flash it with a different ROM...
I am in a desperate need of your help as I searched all the forum for answers and did not find any... Thank you in advance

AW: Bootloop, Can't go to recovery mode and device undetectable on Windows... Help?
Maybe the usb cabel is corrupt. Did you already tried anotherone?

For getting into recovery, try the 3 button option (Power + Home + Volume Up). Press these 3 buttons till you see the kernal logo.
For boot loop, try re-installing the ROM with data/cache wipe.
For USB,
(i) re-install these drivers 64 bit | 32 bit and then
(ii) check cable
(iii) follow this link for exhaustive solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571

I too have the same problem:
- SGS wont be recognized by PC (tried 2 differnet laptops and also different usb cables, nothing worked)
- Tried Odin and Heimdall (both didn't recognize the device)
- tried to flash the broccoli-aokp ROM: aokpcb_galaxysmtd_r2.1-beta-20120610-1843
- when i try to go (by the 3-button-option) into the recovery menu the device boots, shows the normal Galaxy S screen and then instead of recovery the ROM itselve tires somehow to boot (i get the bootscreen from the ROM)
- Also tried to make it visual for Odin/Heimdall via zadig.exe, didn't work...now the driver won't even install
- even tried it via cmd and the adb command, also no devices attached
Alltogether: i cant falsh any ROM via Odin nor CMW
Is it bricked? (Never had a bricked phone and dont know how to recognize this)

Nope, neither the 3-button combination works (i get the normal galaxy s start up screen, and then instead of getting the recover ui the ROM somehow tries to start and i get the bootscreen...and then the bootloop starts) nor through the adb commands in cmd (no device detected)

[Q] Please Help! can't swicht on - stop on LG logo

Hello,
I'm new and I just starting.
Everything going well, but when I want to install CMW I made an error, I don't unlock bootloader before the install, and now when I switch on my phone (lg p880) I see LG logo and nothing happens.
- I tried to "Update firmware through flashing the kdz files" by post on XDA, I have error when I press button 'launch software update' in KDZ_FW_UPD, error about Up text Ex mod2. I add my phone have root!
- I tried to unlock booloader in All in One but my phone don't have debbuging switch on, thats information show me.
- I tried in SDK Manager with fastboot, eclipse and drivers are installed but something maybe I do wrong and isn't work too.
- My computer don't see phone, when I connected phone to computer holding VOL-
How can I do something? How to install maybe orginal ROM, but I want to install Avatar ROM on XDA and this is the beginnig I read that to install the ROM I must have root, unlock bootloader and CWM.
I can go only to orginal recovery and s/w update (but there is nothing doing, when I connected to computer holding VOL- , my computer can't see phone, and I don't have connection with LG Mobile Support Tool)!!!
So now I have nothing
Please HELP me, I don't have phone now and this is terrible.

fastboot is used to install something in adb fastboot mode or to flash a recovery image.
