hi last night i installed swapper from market and ran it. afterward when i restarted my phone, it got stuck on LG logo. i waited even half hour but it doesn't go any further.
condition is that i can't access adb at lg logo screen, but i can have adb on flashing mod which comes when you press power button + vol up .
secondly it doesn't detect my internal sdcard in default recovery. when i try to access sdcard from adb by cd sdcard, it doesn't go in sdcard. when i try to flash another update.zip from ext-sdcard from default recovery, it says unknown volume for path [/sdcard].
so did swapper deleted my internal sdcard partition or what did it do? what is the solution? i tried to find swapper app from adb, went through folders to folder but i couldn't find it out. may be if i can find it from adb and remove it and also it's created file from sdcard my phone come back to life?
in the last my phone is in warranty. atleast someone show me a way to completely remove rooting from my phone through adb so i can take my phone to their customer center.
i also have lg pc suite and mobile support tool.
i had root access with supersu and i installed cwm recovery in my phone. but since phone is not starting up, i can't go into cwm recovery, i can only go in the default recovery.
please help
Re: i think swapper bricked My O4X, please help,
You tried to flash your version with kdz?
Maybe you don't need to do a clean install and keep your files and apps.

bro its ****in up my mind. there are a lot of things on internet, lots of guides, on xda forums there is a post i saw http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723
this post is a tutorial to flash kdz, but i don't know what is my current firmware version, if its 20x or 10x. and how can i see that? coz he says don't downgrade from 20x to 10x with this tool, and i don't know if my is 20x may be? and i might make my problem more complicated by doing wrong things.
please guide me with right path. i'm in trouble and i'm not very experienced in these stuff, i just wanna know things i don't know like i don't know which version of kdz i should download from his link, my country is pakistan and it is not in list of countries over there, and there is european open kdz which is 10a 10b etc. which is for me? your signature says you have 20x, i don't see any 20x over there?
i repeat my situation again.
installed swapper
restarted phone
stuck on LG logo
restarted again n again, no luck
tried adb commands to remove swapper package but can't find sdcard in my root.
tried default recovery, wipe data, wipe cache, restarted, no luck
copied a custonexus rom on my ext-sd, renamed it to update.zip, went to default recovery, tried install update from ext-sd, it gives error "unknown volume for path [/sdcard]"
tried to push update.zip to cache "adb push update.zip /cache", it gives error "permission denied" file system read only.
tried to do these things by connecting my phone to pc while phone is in recovery by removing batteries and inserting, Vol down + power long hold, no luck
tried to do these things while in strange mode lol, removing batteries and inserting, vol up + power long hold. no luck
tried LG support tools, menu > customer support > recovery phone while in strange mode lol vol up + power long hold, it downloads, extracts, and on process of updating it gets stuck on 4%, waited half hour, but no luck
tried the above while going in recovery mode on phone and same options above, but it doesn't connect device.
tried to power on and on LG Logo, same did same above but no luck.
tried to go in S/W mode and do the same above, but it says communication problem, remove batteries and insert and restart update.
now thats all i could do and i know at the moment to do. flashing kdz is new thing for me, im gonna try it but i'm not sure where to start. where to download my kdz and which are right kdz for me.
this is where i need your help. please spare me some time and just tell me and think about what could i do now,
why my phone is stuck on lg logo even internal sdcard is not available, i don't know if it's unmounted by swapper, deleted or formated or partition removed. i can't use adb commands to push coz it's read only, I'm stuck
i can't even take my phone to warranty center coz it's rooted, it has root files in it which will show them it was rooted and warranty will void , even if i delete root files, how can i convince them what did i do with my phone that it's system files are touched and they can't be touched without being rooted.

Anyways why did not you search before, there are a no of threads regarding rooting.
Use cwm injection method and flash your rom again. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1512203

First of all, since you're new to this board please read the Welcome To The LG Optimus Black Section..... (Please Read If You're New)
Also, read the [HOW TO]The Big N00B how-to! since it will answer most of your questions.
Second, if you would have searched you would have found your answer already, but i'll help you (i'm in a good mood today too ).
You can find an already rooted v20E firmware HERE.
Just follow the steps from THIS post but instead of using the V20B firmware files use the ones from the V20E firmware (i've already given the link to the V20E above).
Good luck and happy modding

Hi, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten to the point where the phone was rooted successfully (100%), whenever I tried to run B_SmartFlashTool_Extern.exe, it always ended up in error. What did I do wrong? I've used the appropriate files and installer, haven't I? Now, I'm totally freaked out because my phone has run out of battery and doesn't show any sign of charging even though I've connected the charger
Oh by the way, I've already used the patch rom for V20e, but still no avail and already tried running the program with admin rights

(behaving a bit like the windows xp error message when you move it arround and it leaves a trail behind it). i tried restarting in recovery mode but freezed on the lg logo, having a small faint wite line at the bottom of the screen. I have tried smartflash tool with no succes, and i have also tried the script from the cotkey, but it gets stuck at the first step. Also, i cannot interact with the KDZ updater ... I could really use some help, as i cannot afford a new phone :-/

great, lg emergency recovery tool tells me this model is not supported for upgrading =.=
Similar problem, I was on Huexs´s 6.4, was rooted, recovery was working, then I flashed v30d by tantrums, was using it without problems, then some problems with sd card, from that point I am not able to run recovery, so I tried to flash patched v20 with Smartflash, but when it goes to rebooting, it always stay in bootloop. Only way for me is flash v30b, then root it with Unlockroot, but thats all, I can normaly use phone rooted, but I am not able to push to phone recovery image, so I can not flash any zip file ( like new kernels. etc.).
Managed to flash V30b
i managd to flash the v30b by the kdz updater but... Everything was working normally. I shut off the phone so i can go to sleep and i put it to charge. the picture i got is the lg logo with a white faint line down the bottom of the screen again. I unplug the charger and remove the battery. The next morning it worked perfectly again for aprox. 9 hours, that i was at school. Then i try texting my gf and the pictures below show what happened... WTH? Any help would be deeply appreciated :-/

@robusto try flashing v30B. then root your OB and flash TWRP recovery. You can do it like this:
1. Install goomanager
2. Open goomanager and provide root permision
3. Hit menu and choose 'Install OpenRecovery'.
Now you have TWRP Recovery and you should be able to flash any .zip file.
It worked for me.
(or you can get twrp recovery just by pushing the twrp recovery image file using terminal emulator).
Good luck!

Only I am not able change kernel, what could be phone speed up, but nevermid. I can live with it. Only can be good to convert some kernel.zip to same file, whitch can be flashed with kdz flasher or smartflashtool. Anyway thanks for ideas.

And may be is good to do it on PC with WIN XP. For me this is working better then on PC with WIN7. Good luck.
Hi there,
First things first I'm a big noob when it comes to tweaking/flashing/anything with a phone; and life just confirmed it.
All I wanted was to make pics without shutter sound, to capture powerpoint screens in college instead of having to write ten sentences in 10 seconds. I couldnt just turn the shutter sound off! After some reading I thought I needed to both get my P880 rooted and needed CWM Recovery; I managed to do everything exactly as stated here:
Rooting:
http://theunlockr.com/2013/01/14/how-to-root-the-lg-optimus-4x-hd/
Installation of CWM Recovery:
http://theunlockr.com/2013/01/14/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-the-lg-optimus-4x-hd/
After that I tried to install this rom via CWM Recovery -> install from SD/zip file -> CWM_deodex_rom_v10e_signed.zip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871858
I did that because this mod had the camera mod I wanted installed already.. The installation went fine, the phone stated.
But when I hit reboot, it got stuck in bootloop.. All I can do now is press PWR + Vol down (read that after some googling) and enter 'Android system recovery <3e>'.
It shows this list of options (above a picture of a dying android with a red exclamation mark on top of it)
reboot system now (done that few times now, gets stuck in bootloop everytime.. Well I think it's that. It gets stuck at the LG screen, it's my interpretation that that is the correct use of the word bootloop)
apply update from external storage (well please dear lord let there be an escape through this option)
wipe data/factory reset (no results after hard resetting, still bootloop)
wipe cache partition (did this too)
apply update from cache (not this, why whould I)
wipe nv partition (did this too)
Toggle Console VART Log (and well, I don't think this option's going to save me)
I wanted an option to turn off the shutter sound. Well, things changed. Right now I'm willing to do anything to get the phone back to life! Google couldn't really help me out.. Well better stated: I can't help myself out using google, so I'm asking for your help! Please all XDA tweakers, modders, hackers, etc. unite and help! It is appreciated A LOT! Please state what I need to do now, I just want to get it back to a working state. Or please confirm that it is not completely BRICKED ;x
edit: I followed some advice from the unbrick-thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1843830
Now I'm stuck @ S/W Upgrade - Please wait while upgrading ... screen. Please help me out
edit 2: What I'm doing now.. via the LG PC Suite -> Lg Mobile Support Tool -> Recovery (you need to fill in either IMEI or S/N and model)
Status: Downloading the LG Mobile Phone Software Update program. Est time left: 44:40 for 400mb.. Nice server

Hi guys. My name is Alvaro, I'm from Argentina. It's the first thread I ever post to a forum, but this time I felt it was really necessary for users who can be in the same situation as I was, just minutes ago.
I have an LG P705 and, thanks to these forums, I started messing around with it, and managed to root it and flash some very good roms. The problem is, as I was trying to install a new screen locker, I installed a new framework-es.apk, which resulted in a bootloop. My first thought was "Ok, I just have to boot into recovery and flash a new ROM". The problem was, I couldn't boot into it. I had CMW Touch installed, and, after trying a lot of button combinations, I just couldn't boot into it. I only could boot into Emergency mode. I did some research, and so I downloaded the official LG Mobile Support Tool, and, after that, the KDZ, in order to unbrick my phone. Everyhing went well with the LG tool, until an unknown error related to drivers, appeared after 99% of process. I tried in different computers, x86 and x64, notebooks and PCs, and all of them showed driver problems which didn't allow the upgrade to succeed. So I tried with the KDZ, flashing a V10a ROM. The problem was, this time, that an upgrade error showed up at the end, saying "wparam=100 lparam=6". I searched in the Internet, but I found nothing. I was desesperated.
So here's how I unbricked my phone:
- Installed the official LG United Mobile drivers, provided by LG in its official site
- Downloaded KDZ Updater
- Downloaded the V20a ROM with root and CMW (it's really important to use this one): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2214717 (thanks Homero2 so much!)
- Installed the msxml file in the KDZ folder
- Ran KDZ_FW_UPD.exe as administrator
- Set it to 3GQCT and DIAG, opened the V20a kdz file and pressed "Launch software update"
- I still got a lparam error, but here's the great thing about this ROM. Even though I still got a bootloop, I MANAGED TO GET INTO RECOVERY! Instructions: Press the power button and the volume - button at the same time. When capacitive buttons turn up, press the menu button. When LG logo appears, release the power button
- After that, I pushed a downloaded ROM (zip file) to my SD card and installed it via CMW succesfully!
Note: Depending on the ROM, you may need a different baseband: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B_hs4HhjiC56MDREeFNzYnpZQlE&usp=sharing
Hope I can help somebody, as many of you helped me. Cheers!

Have you installed all the drivers needed?
You can't access to the sd probably because you have the wrong version of cwm, it's appened to me too,
I've unbrick my phone in aguantealvaro's way,
try to unistall/reistall the drivers needed and hope for the best
ask
where can I find a flashable stockrom guys ?
or I just have to compress the sockrom downloaded before ?
HI XDA
I got this sgh-t599 tmobile phone yesterday. (didn't realize it was rooted) messed around/did factory reset without backup.
now im stuck in CWM recovery 6.0.3.6, Ive spent several hours readind and trying to fix this with no luck.
I tried using adb, kies etc. none can detect device. device drivers are installed(tried 'have disk'), it shows Samsung under device manager.
I can device list in adb and shows the numbers and "recovery" but when i try to use commands it says "waiting for device" or something.
from what i read, i need unsecure boot to restore firmware. where can i get this and how do i do it pls.
i have no mount usb option in cwm, when i try to recover/update from cwm it says aborted. in adb im able to reboot the phone with the commands but always reboots to cwm recovery or waiting for device. any help pls. i may have access to another rooted t599 if i am able to backup and recover it to this phone?:crying:
do you think local phone repair shop can fix this back to stock or rooted and for how much?

You must have format system or something. A factory reset wipes cache and data, nothing else. There should be a homebrew odin-file somewhere in these t599 threads.

phone was rooted and had superuser etc on it. I didn't know about rooting, I did factory reset from the main menu which im pretty sure is what caused this. before that I was able to look through its apps where I saw the superuser,terninal and others, once factory reset it rebooted to cwm recovery and stuck there. there was no backup or side sdcard. only realized it was rooted after saw the cwm and stuck
odin doesnt detect phone either, downloaded/installed universal drivers still no go.
main issue is not being to able enable usb debug/download while still in cwm
repair shop says $30, about to run there
i caused my friends sgh-t599 to do that
So... This might be late.... But I'm going to postthis for others .... So I was looking for ever for a way to unbrick his phone... Then hope Finley came .. After I read hard enough .. And came across a post for a stock pre-rooted tar file to be flashed with Odin...

^PreRooted Stock ROM for SGH-T599
https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B8oW93h4qD3-X3UxdFl5VlhzZVU&export=downloads
° so to unbrick you're SGH-T599 after downloading the two files above
1§t: put sgh-t599 in download mode(vol.down+home+power).... Plug in and press vol. Up
2ed: Open odin 3.09.. Wait for added to show up (mite have to unplug then re plug the phone)..
Click on AP and find 0B8oW93h4qD3-X3UxdFl5VlhzZVU.tar
........ It should take awhile ......
Then after you're phone boots up... An after you set everything up
.... GET two apps from the play store
° install one of the superuser apps
° then get a root checker as app
^EXTRAS(maybe needed)
°one of BusyBox apps from play store
