Hello guys, I am new at this forum but I have been reading this for years, but just now I needed to post something.
I have a LG Optimus Black P970 and it's now Bricked, I will try to explain it.
The samrphone was from my father and he gave it to me already bricked, he was using Stock ROM from VIVO (Brazil) Android 2.2 (Froyo) when It bricked, then I asked for him the smartphone and I tryed to use the SmartFlash to unbrick it and put the CWM Recovery as I used to use. The P970 didn't boot at CWM Recovery automatically as was supposed to, but after few hours pressing Vol - + Home Key and Power Button I was successed. Then I flashed Zeus ROM and everything went fine, the P970 was UNBRICKED!. Ok, I gave it to my sister-in-law and she was using it untill tomorrow... Then she asked me to unclock the network so she could use every SIM Card, for this I had to flash another ROM, I asked the P970 to boot into CWM Recovery (holding power button, reboot>reboot recovery) and now It is stucked on LG logo again. I tryed to flash 5 Stock Firmwares, 10A, 20B, 30A, 30B, etc but none worked. I really need it unbricked. I have been searching tought internet but every tutorial didn't work.
Please some one help me, I can't lose this smartphone. Oh, one more thing, I can boot into S/W Upgrade normally...
Thanks!
So you have tried using the smartflasher?? If so then it should be fully fixed... give it sometime to boot though as when I'd restored mine it took like 5 mins top for it to get into the main menu..

Yes, I did it several times and didn't fix the bootloop.
Is there a way that I can wipe data/factory reset thought a computer? Because maybe It could fix my phone, but I cant boot, it's still stucked. I really need help here
any help?
Hi MuriLOCO, I had bricked my p970 before and flashing via flash tool did the job.
You can try flashing it via S/W upgrade.
Go to LG website and download the updater so you could flash it with S/W update.
Hope that helps.

My phone has the Nova Rom installed in it for almost a month already. Today I used my phone for playing games, browsing the web and after that I turned off my phone and turned it on again, instead of booting up it's stuck on the LG Logo with the four softkeys blinking. What the hell? I didn't do anything but my phone got bricked? I tried to unbrick my phone using these methods:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275315
result, after flashing my phone reboot but it's still stuck on the LG Logo.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15975608&postcount=2
result, still the same stucked at LG Logo.
and lastly
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15039107&postcount=16
result, still the same stucked at LG Logo.
Is there any other methods for unbricking my phone? Is my phone totally bricked and should I send it to the service center?

Nope mate, it didn't work. I can't go to it. I tried to spam the buttons many times to go to it before I flash it with stock V10A. I tried to flash it with V10E still no luck.
Update:
I sent my phone to service center two weeks ago, I visit them today and they said that they will be changing my Black's motherboard and I need to wait one week more. Damn I can't wait.
make a nandroid back up always. and use "adb recovery reboot" if phone bricked...
Hello everyone
Recently I need to flash my ROM to official ROM - BIN_LGP990AT-00-V10c-EUR-XX-APR-16-2011+0 by SmartFlashTool for p990. Everything was successfully done and everything worked fine, then I rooted my mobile by SuperOneClickv2.3.2-ShortFuse. Again, everything was done well, but the program asked me if I want to install BusyBox, I chose YES, but I think that I hadn't done it. Because then I want to start/boot my android and nothing happened, just LG logo and then nothing only black screen (as like been the system was stuck), no boot logo, nothing even though I wait to boot about 10 minutes. I diceded to try flash my mobile again by SmartFlashTool, but didn't work again. I done everything right, but still 3 sec LG logo then nothing just black screen. I also tryed to get to the Recovery Mod but still no response.
Please VERY PLEASE, WHAT CAN I DO NOW??? HOW CAN I FLASH SOME NEW ROM WITHOUT SmartFlashTool and Recovery Mode or how can i FIX this problem?
P.S.:SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
Hello!
I've got a little/big problem with my phone...
first of all im using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1748984 instead of cwm.
And yesterday i tried to flash a new ROM. First all went pretty good, but the play store was bugged. So i did a new wipe and flashed again, but ofc it was stuck in the bootanimation, so i plugged out the battery... and now all that comes up is first the LG-logo, then the teamwin logo, then it's stuck showing the temwin logo... So i can't flash a new rom, i cant get into recovery mode and when i try to use smartflash on my pc the S/W upgrade wont appear while pressing vol down + pluggin the usb cable, instead the phone is black, the lg logo appears and then it's black again, and it repeats.
Any help or suggestions would be so nice of you!
never use that recovery method, always use CWM non touch version. i think you should nvflash
Use NVflash, me same one time!
Before using rhe nvflash method, try flashing CMW to your phone again. Go to Rusty's CMW thread in the Development section and download it from there.

Hello everyone.
Recently i was using in my p880 Cyanogenmon rom based on 4.2.2 version and after getting bored of it i decided to come back to stock Lg rom.
After installing stock lg rom through KDZ installer my phone came in a boot loop. I tried to hard reset it through system recovery but when i select the factory reset
the only thing my phone does, is showing me the Dead Android icon with the red triangle. Is there anything else i can do to "wake it up" from the boot loop?
If you have CWM or TWRP installed boot it power + vol. Down.
Download the stock ROM for your region (flashable zip.) Copy to SD card
Then full wipe data/cache/dalvik/system
And flash ROM you downloaded and copied SD.

Use lg mobile support tool to re-flash stock ROM.After that, enter the recovery and do a factory reset.This as always fixed any problems I experienced.The main issue of bootloop after returning to stock ROM is a problem with data partition usually which can be fixed by doing a factory reset, however I don't know why you got that red triangle and I don't use kdz flashers on this phone as mobile support tool does fine job.
stuck in sw upgrade mode
HI im after some help. my p880 is stuck in sw recovery mode. i have tried to use the lg upgrade recovery and it always fails at 10% even with the modem disabled. i have also tried kdz flasher but with the same results. totally lost here. any help greatly appreciated
Hi guys,
So I had a stock T-Mobile LG G4 H811 that I had unlocked and booted into twrp version 3.1.1-1-g4. I wasn't able to actually flash recovery of this .img becuase of a write failure. So I booted into it instead and then installed it from within twrp into the recovery partition. The actual stock software was the ORIGINAL original, which I think was android 5.1.1
From there, I cleared the cache and delvik cache and installed the G4-H811-10N-xTreme-2.0 Rom. Now, I can't boot into recovery mode anymore, and all I get is the bootloop.. but it's not dead yet because it's a software issue on my part and not a hardware failure.
Any advice on how to get it to recovery mode or at least so I can boot into twrp somehow to try and get this fixed? I tried Power+Volume Down and then let go a sec and Power+Vol Down again and it won't work at all. Just goes straight to bootloop.
Thanks in advance.. I know I screwed up somewhere.. just so many loopholes, it's easy to miss.
Best,
Johnnie
Got somewhere, still broke
Well, somehow I managed to boot into recovery mode only 1 time and installed the stock Tmobile rom. It installed, but now I get a white T-Mobile screen on boot up and it stays there. I tried using the LG Flash Tool 2014 and the stock T-Mobile H811 10N firmware for T-Mobile, but all I get is connection to server errors and the software won't install to the phone over download mode. Anyone else have this problem? I've been trying to figure this stupid thing out for 6 hours. Also, I'm wondering if installing the stock firmware caused the original recovery partition to go back to stock too which is the reason I'm no longer able to boot into recovery mode? It just doesn't recognize it. Power+vol down and then vol down doesn't do anything.
When using the LG Flash Tool 2014, all I get is Connection to Server Failed, Try again. So I do, and nothing. It fails at 9%
Thanks.
