What do you want to do exacly? If you want to do a factory reset you can do it form setting menu, power on your phone go to settings> Privacity Settings (or something similar) and do a factory reset
You can try to dial it too *2767*3855# to do a hard reset (I've never test it, I used to do factory reset via CWM)

resolved. volume key buttons are not working

I can't use my phone!

Hi my phone is unuseable now...
Everytime the messege Sorry! The process android.process.acore has stpped. Try again pops up.
I can't (or just don't now how to) enter recovery.
I also can't go to settings because the message pops up every 2 seconds.
When I click Force Close it goes back to the launcher.
Can I do a factory reset (I think it is solved then)?
How do I do that?

Thanks but that's the problem because when I want to enter the menu I get that message and when I press Force Close it sends me back to the launcher. I get that message every second so I cant go to settings.
I'm rather sure you only have Recovery if you installed CWM. Than just press power long and select it from that menu.

Thanks but I dind't have installed CWM yet. If i press power long it'll just boot and shut down and boot again (because it is forced power off during the boot)...
Press volume - (not +) button and power button same time for a while...you get into factory reset mode...
then you can have options and proceed

There might be simpler ways but that will help definitly http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21472502&postcount=1
A simple Factory Reset would probably be enough but when you can't do it.
i think there is factory reset in secret menu

Thank you but I also can't acces the dialer.
Isn't there any button combo?
USB debugging isnt also checked I think.
No other way that i know of since ob doesn't has some hard reset button combination
Try turning off and repairing via lg software

What ROM do you have installed? A stock one, or a custom ROM?
Infact in both ways you can do a factory reset by:
Plug in USB cable, enable usb debugging (if you have a custom ROM, it always should be on),
download the adb package from my noob how to (see attachments)
cd to the directory containing the adb files, type:
adb reboot recovery
Now you either are in CWM and can do the wipes 1 by 1, or if you have a stock ROM, it will perform
a factory reset right away
If all of that doesnt work, you have to use smartflashtool!

It's running the stock ROM and I thought USB debugging was disabled.
Can't I put firmware on a sd card that will flash automatically without recovery or going into the menu?

Yeah that was the problem. Back to stock now. Guess now I learned to wait until I know for sure if a ROM can be flashed thru cwm.

In ADB you can use exacly what you wrote:
adb reboot recovery
Try it while phone is bootlooping.
If that do not work - fix volume up button. At service center.

I am not sure about that. But you do not have any system on phone... Maybe to see on some non official service.
First try with that adb command.

You can try with this. It has reboot to recovery in power options. Just wait some time to see if adb will initilize.
If you get adb, hit Power than Recovery.

Hold down volume while using the battery trick to boot the phone, this will get you to do bootloader, then factory reset in recovery

You can try flashing a factory image with fastboot or putting it on the root of sdcard as a PASSIMG.zip

LG-P880 Firmware flash,upgrade,downgrade improved.

So as LG-P880 flashing instructions were too much hassle for my taste
Here it is a very simple way to upgrade/downgrade your phones easy peasy
Everything will be gone so backup first!
Download this:
Mirror 1:
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=01589528474127578975
Mirror 2:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/wu50af8uh99air7/P880-Flashtools.rar
Unrar and copy your downloaded new firmware inside LG Flash Tool 2014 folder
Browse to Driver folder and install/double click LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN311AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.11.3.exe file.
Shutdown and remove SIM&EXTSDCARD from the back of the phone. Leave battery in-place don't take it out.
Press and hold Vol(-) connect usb cable coming from pc->download mode
Run LGFlashTool2014.exe
Selections
CDMA or 3GQCT doesn't matter really
DIAG
KDZ file location
then select preferred flash mode
Normal Flash: Flash ROM without losing any data. Only use this when you need to fix system error. Beware of boot loop when flashing ROM that differ from current ROM on your phone or MOD ROM.
CSE Flash: Choose this option when you need a fresh format. All data will be gone. It's suitable for upgrading or downgrading ROM or simply use this when you need to back to Stock.
Done, enjoy!
Update:
If you get
This mode is for data backup at service center ...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
in recovery repeat flashing the KDZ and you will get the stock recovery this time.
Wow, thx Demetris, you are my savior just in time.
With the online upgrade the phone is always stuck in a bootloop and the old offline method just didn't work as it gave me a file extract error, although I know I've done everything correct (maybe the issue was leaving the sim and sd card inside or selecting 3GQCT?)
Btw and fyi, the CSE method is only available if CDMA is selected.
Thanks for making this fast and simple tutorial that even works ^^
Thank you for the great tutorial. I tried exact accordance with my LG-P880 to update. Unfortunately it did not work, the device starts but then remains at the LG logo, no further reaction. Restart / reset no improvements. Options in Android System recoveryy <3e> do not work. Do you have an idea how I can still save my beloved P-880?
Use CDMA and select CSE flash. After update and phone sticks at lge logo remove battery hold vol +(99% of times you need to use - but for me was +) and press power on. On stock recovery factory reset and now phone will boot
I did and the unit freezes. The figure Android is flat and shows an exclamation mark.

Did you erase nv partition? from stock recovery?
If not check this V20c md5: 8dd721c1c6ec63c74d42b2931de8456f
KDZ
where can we find the original KDZ files?
Thanks in advance! :highfive:

For me it worked without a factory reset, just flashing and restarting.
Forget what I said, i think I did a factory reset and wiped nv partition before I flashed the new firmware with this tutorial.
@alberteske all firmwares can be found here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=15
but some links are broken, after clicking on a link you have to replace the "%2F" at the end of the adress with a "/"

The MD5 number is correct.

isn't a way to extract the baseband files and flash them without having to flash kdz + unlock + re-install everything...?

Think here you mean:
press and hold [vol -] and [power] until you got the "android recovery figure"
then clear cache and make factory reset

Somehow my phone got to the LG logo but is in bootloop. Tryed vol+ and power. I can get to stock recovery, but how to factory reset from there?
Reboot phone
ADB sideload
Factory reset
...something like that
I think that you must see that options when enter recovery(vol- and power button),then using volume buttons select factory reset and confirm with power button. I also have bootloop after flashing kdz but after factory reset phone boot properly.
BTW i use flash kdz tutorial not that method from Demetris
