I had rooted my Optimus Black right from the first week i had bought in May 2012. Tried all the possible custom ROM's out there. Huexx's Zeus ROM was my favourite. But due to power problems (abrupt restarts and excessive heating during charging) I had to give my Black to service center for repair. I made sure that I switched back to stock ROM before I give it back to the service center.
Since then, I have been unable to ROOT it !!
Tried all the possible methods to root it:
CWM Injection, Smartflash resulted into BOOTLOOP's when i tried to flash older V10 and V20 firmwares. Only firmwares that worked were V20 F and V20 G.
This got me really frustrated as I just couldnt ROOT IT.
Today I flashed European V30 with the intention of ROOTING it with Unlockroot.
This time i was successful in ROOTING.
I installed Rom Manager, Flashed CLockwordmod Recovery. Rebooted into recovery and was greeted with a "LG Security Error" !!!! The phone just wont start.
What is going on ?? Is my bootloader locked ?? I dont know ??
Can someone please help me ??
Official ICS has bootloader locked.
lg putted a "crc check" on the bootloader so if its modified like your case, it gives a security error

Does that mean I am stuck on STOCK firmware from now on ?? This sucks.
I also came across things like for the Optimus G and Nitro.
Cant anything be done regarding this matter for the Black ?
Removing the very essence of andriod OS by LG by resorting to such stupidity really DISGUSTS me.
Please Dev's, come up with something. STOCK LG roms suck ass.
yes you cannot have cwm with that rom (atleast this easy)
flash another rom with smartflashtool
Download THIS and use THIS tutorial .. you`ll get Gingerbread rooted. After this install rom manager and you can install custom rom.

Tried it but FAILED.
STUCK on LG logo with the bottom lights blinking. Waited for more than 10 mins but just stuck there.
As I had mentioned earlier, can boot successfully through only stock firmwares like V20 F, V20 G and V30. Cannot flash patched roms and neither can I flash old V10 firmware as it results in BOOTLOOP.

A lot of people flash a patched V20 and they forget to flash the Superuser and that results in a bootloop.At least it happened to me when I first rooted my OB in ancient times.Maybe this is the case.

IT WONT BOOT AFTER FLASHING PATCHED FIRMWARE. STUCK ON LG logo with blinking bottom lights (strange but true).
Tried Rom Converter 2 and 2.1, Injection Method, everything.

also CANNOT boot succesfully throuh a Stock V10 (so that it becomes easy to root).

Did you start smartflash as admin? Disable anti virus program and firewall maybe?
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app
Hi
This happens if you flash original v30b with smart flash and the only way to go back to GB is flash a patched v20 version....
And it directly first boots into CWM...now dont restart....just flash your backup from your memcard,this will bring your phone back alive....
You can try copy any other zip version in your memory card if u dont have backup....
The problem is original v30 formats the phone in some diff format.....
Flashing it back with CWM...brings it back alive....
If you already flashed patched version then u can try to enter CWM by console...adb reboot recovery......else do as mentioned above....

Try wiping everything and flashing ROM again. Give it a 2nd chance. Else you can download another ROM (in pc etc), put it in micro sdcard and flash it.
You can go to stock by using smartflash(search in Development section), but believe me its more pain n the ass to do that!! besides you lose you root and recovery too.

Use LG update tool to update to the latest country ROM and then you can get back root, custom ROM and so on....best always is the LG update tool which wipes all in a safe and best way

this is because actual recoveries are incompatible with ICS firmwares and will brick your device if you try to flash a recovery. you may try this mod to unlock the bootloader for getting a working recovery

IZS v0.4 or Mackay v2.9.7
Hi,
i am stuck in a bootloop.
i have an unlocked bootloader and had CM10.1 previously.
i then went back to an old 20a backup i made some month ago.
that worked fine.
my phone downloaded an update to 20b then, and i installed it.
after that i am stuck in a bootloop now. normal booting gives me cwm.
i am not able to turn the phone off and charge it, as mentioned somewhere else, to clear the "boot to recovery" flag.
someone knows a way to clear this flag?
Its not important for me if i run stock or CM, but even when i install my CM backup now it still boots into recovery.
holding <down> while rebooting gives me "S/W Upgrade - Please wait while upgrading".
it seems the 20b update is still present and trying to boot into stock recovery, resulting in cwm getting loaded everytime.
(cwm works fine, i can upload a zip and execute it)
greetings

i had the same, if you want to install ota updates you should have the "original" recovery.
i flashed it back to stock with LG .kdz flasher. if i remember correct flashing a backup from sd card won't slove this problem.

hm, i remember having the same problem while installing CM. there was something i did to interrupt the loop, and yes, i think the original LG suite or kdz was involved. but i should not need to reflash the original rom.. its just a flag, i should be able to clear it with sideload/zip/button combination.
[edit] maybe i wasnt clear about that: i dont need the 20b upgrade, i would love to cancel the update process, if that makes my phone boot again.

sorry but i can't help you with the flag... i solved it by reflashing but i have to admit it's quite drastic.

i will reflash stock i guess.

i am on win7 and my PC isnt able to load fastboot nor LG mobile usb drivers.

Easiest way to reflash stock is to force an update using the LGMobile Support Tool. Once your phone is connected (I suggest the S/W Update mode) look for the option somewhere in the upper right menu.
Edit: This will also revert to the stock recovery.

if i recall correctly, the LGMobile Support Tool tool wont recognize my phone, since i have a custom kernel, unlocked bootloader and a custom ROM.
i am trying to flash stock ROM now with kdz updater ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723 ), and if this does not work i am going through every method thats there..

Not sure about this, but the S/W mode might make a difference here. No harm in trying, right?
well. i was able to install stock 20a with kdz updater and link above.
cwm is gone now ofc, but everything at least works.
in some hours i will be rooted and cwm'ed again, but well... its always the same lesson: never touch a running system.
but maybe here's the wrong place to insist on this wisdom

1 Download whatever ROM you want to use
2 Download SmartFlash Tool (password: bluedreams)
3 Download [PATCHED]V20S_00.7z
4 Unzip SmartFlash Tool and use it to flash unzipped V20S
5 When SmartFlash Tool will finish, your phone will reboot into recovery.

To root it, flash superuser.zip in recovery (search it on the internet). If you are on Gingerbread (V20), you don't need to unlock the bootloader.

I was hoping you fixed the issue. I don't know what to do.
It's a matter of unlocking the boot loader. Once you do that, you can jump back and forth between ICS-based ROMs and everything else.
Gingerbread ROMs include the boot loader (marvel and Huexxx).

I am from Romania so I need an Europe Open
No, I don't tried to unlock bootloader, but like you , I got the bootloops every time I downgrade from ICS, Nameless or cyanogen roms .

It's not working. Don't know what to try
UP! When I use the bootloader unlocker app the flashing process take about 2-3 seconds and the app closing by itself without any message like "succes". I even tried to flash a u-boot img uploaded by huexxx and at the second reboot the phone stucks on lg logo without flashing leds

Did you already try the alternative way without the app? Which means load the files to your sdcard and afterwards type the dd if=xxxx of=xxxx? This could show if it works or fails. And did you ever flash the LU5900 port? So the early ICS ROM released by Redy, Gabwerkz and me. Try the manual unlock first.

As written in the thread, type it into terminal emulator (an app). Read the thread carefully please.

OK I have the terminal emulator on my phone.
I've read the thread and it says "Move this two files, bootloader and recovery to the root of memory sdcard;
Enter in the command line
su
dd if=/sdcard/u-boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
And reboot or reboot recovery."
I have downloaded all on my laptop(bootloader recovery and su) but I am confuse....what's with that "su"?
Do I have to put it on the root of the sdcard too?
Sorry for my noob question
