Hello guys
I think I have bricked my phone. Here is what I have done:
Upgraded from ICS to JB, ok
Rooted: ok
Unlocked bootloader: Ok, in the secret menu it says unlocked.
Installed CWM thru Rom Manager and downloded Cm10
Rebooted to install...stuck with LG logo,not ok
I can go to Android recovery and I did a system restore formatted everything, still LG logo
I have tried S/W Upgrade and when it checks it says I can upgrad, but when I do that, something goes wrong with connection it says.
And now I do not have any ideas what to do :crying:
Well, I finally got it to work.
I downloaded V20A_00.kdz. The setings I used in KDZ_FW_UPD.exe were CDMA and DIAG and loaded the kdz-file and pressed the button that says Launch software update. Ofcourse i were in S/W update mode.

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.
Hello, I decided to go back to the stock rom on my Optimus 4X HD. I did so by following this guide by Demetris: http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-4x-hd/general/lg-p880-firmware-flash-upgrade-t2919195
I flashed V20B kdz in upgrade mode through the LGflashtool and everything worked fine. When rebooting I can hear the bootup sound and see the logo but it stays in a bootloop. The thread I linked above suggests that I do a factory reset.
I can access the stock recovery but it's not working properly. When I press factory reset I see the android guy with an Error! icon above him and nothing happens.
adb sideload fails everytime but I can use adb shell and access the phones storage that way.
Bootloader is unlocked. Another thing to mention is that on the back of the battery it says not for "resale". It might be a developer preview phone because I bought on display for half the price in a phone store.
How can I recover from this bootloop? Any help ?
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.

Hi all,
I have put myself in horrible situation look like phone is bricked . I can not start my phone in recovery or download mode even.
here are the series of step I had performed:
1)Unlock bootloader and intalled latest twrp-3.0.2-1-h815.img 16.5M 2016-09-15 07:23:54 EDT for ( since 815/811) has same twrp on twrp website.
2) tried to install lineage OS rom for 811 but the recovery gave me problem that device is 815. Please install 815 rom, so I flashed 815 and it flashed fine and device booted and worked fine.
3)Now the problem starts, it crashed after some time and stuck in boot loop.
4)I had tried to boot in recovery and tried to restore back up image, but it crashed in the middle and after that I was not able to start to recovery.
5) Then I used the LG UP and flash kdz file H811V20r_00_0111.kdz for stock rom.
6) It flashed successfully, but device never got boot up and now I am unable to go to download mode.
7) Displaying small download mode symbol but device is stuck on the symbol and not going to Download mode.
I am stuck now, Is there any solution to come out of it. Please help me.
Thanks
Now my phone starts into download mode, and I flashed the original kdz h81120v_00_0425 using download mode, after flashing first time, it went to opitmizing Apps screen but restated in middle.
After that I tried multiple times sing hard reset, but it always freeze on 2nd screen when I press yes to reset.
I flashed kdz multiple time using LG up, but it stuck on LG logo with unlocked boot loader msg. not going to the bootloop.
Current condition is now I am unable to enter download mode it respond but freeze before entering download.
I can not hard reset as it always freezes on 2nd hard reset screen and not formatting.
No charging.
I am not sure, If this is some hardware issue or emmc fault , Please help me on this..

I know I have done few things wrong in confusion, but realized later on. It is H811 TMO model for sure.
I did select refurbished while using LG UP
My phone is not completely dead.
Pressing power button it stuck on LG logo with unlocked boot loader msg. not going to the bootloop.
I am unable to enter download mode, it responds but freeze before entering download showing 4 blue dots.
I am able to enter recovery but I can not hard reset as it always freezes on 2nd hard reset screen and not formatting.
No charging, Device Manager shows nothing.
Is there a way to recover??
