Hello.
I've search my problem in forum but I didn't found a answer. PLEASE, can anyone help me, I have a LG 4x and I've tried to flash CWM image from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2298420 but I cannot entry after that in Software Update ( Volume - and Power button) and not even in (Volume + Home and Power Button).
I get this error:
[LGE _SECURITY]error: boot image signature
[LGE _SECURITY]5 seconds after power is turned off for power saving
My phone starts very well, I can talk from him but I can not make Factory Reset and flash back the stock rom.
Sorry for my english and I hope someone can help me!
Thank you!
A little search for "error: boot image signature" would've get you to the conclusion that you have to flash stock ROM through LG Flash Tool.
Search for it and follow the instructions.
EDIT: Why the hell do you post on a thread related to this and then open the exact same as a new thread?
I hope to clarify this for you once:
Our 4X HD is nearly unbrickable and every little problem has already a thread over here somewhere.
Just invest a few minutes on searching (Google helps) and try it and don't open a new thread for every little thing!

Hi
If you want to enter SW mode, just push Volume - and put usb on your phone.
Not use power button.

How the **** do you expect to install a custom recovery without unlocking the bootloader?
I'd suggest that you stop asking stupid questions, go away, search and READ before trying anything else. The instructions have been covered so many times that it shouldn't be hard for you to find them.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I need help recovering from what I think is a brick.
I recently did a factory restore, because my streak 7 was acting strange, fc, and such. When I rebooted, nothing.... no fastboot, no recovery of any kind, only usb connection is apx, which I did install the drivers for, and it does connect to my pc as apx.
I have got what info I got from a thread about a bricked streak, which got me through installing the apx drivers, but the rest is more device specific..... i think?
Now I need help flashing a recovery... I think?? any suggestions?
look up in the fastboot thread... i posted on how to flash using fastboot. get the original shipping roms from the performance thread and flash those.
fastboot is lower into the hardware level than recovery....

how would we flash your recovery and we cant get passed our first issue...and you shouldnt ask for someone to press thanks .....let them do it when they feel needed
I always have to flash the recovery twice. I think the app should do that for me.

Hi Folks,
I have a P970H and I was trying to make it a little faster. I tried a few roms and decided to use the original V20Q but I was having GPS problems.
Following google, I arrived here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1503459.html
Then, I decided to follow this:

SR3-R2 is very good (I personally use SR2 with PP9 for best smoothness).
And if you want, you can flash a tweak pack, too.
i would prefer to have combination that someone (named You) tested already, is that full list then?
1. rom - Rebuild_of_V20q_Update.zip
2. root + cwm
3. baseband - bb20120313.zip
4. kernel - Horse_Power_2x_Xtreme_StableRelease_SR2.zip
5. tweak pack - V20q_Tweak_Pack_FD_off_by_Flix123.zip
6. performace pack - HP_PerformancePack_V9_Modified_by_Flix123.zip
any comments on order in which should i flash those files?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
as I was already on stock V20Q w/ Root, I booted on recovery, flashed with Rebuild_of_V20q_Update.zip and (I think that here was my mistake) I also applied a root.zip, the same that I've used on stock rom. When I clicked on reboot.. Voilá - NOTHING. NADA. NIENT. My phone does not boot anymore. It does not turn on, not even go to download screen (VOL UP + USB).
What do you think. did I bricked my black?
That ROm is for Optimus 2X as indicated in the thread tittle. Have you even read what thread are you at?
For the itch of flashing. Most members here "always" finds the download link without even reading information on what they are downloading. I believe you wouldn't put diesel on a gasoline car, would you?
try reviving with SmartFlash.

Well, then, i can throw it away. I've spent all day long reading forums and my GPS wasn't working, its really possible that I haven't realized that I was using a wrong rom.
Unfortunately for me, there is no signal from the phone, not even a tiny led blink.

I think you still have chances to unbrick your phone..
First you have to enter into software upgrade mode to smart flash a ROM (.bin files)
I think (volume up + power) is wrong....it is (volume down + power key)..is right...just refer the instructions carefully
Here, I am giving the link, refer it carefully, I succussfully installed through it. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448803)
Go through this link, relaxedly follow the instructions.. your phone will be ubbricked and also search in google about how to enter into software upgrade mode of P970 phone
If it not successful, you have a to try as final option with LG update tool with recovery option (also search google about how to recovery with LG update tool)
Press THANKS button if I helped you

Hi Sekhar, the problem is that the phone doesn't even start. It doesn't recognize as a USB devicw on the computer, so, it does not create a COM port...
Then you send it to repairs.

Guys,
I'm relatively new to flashing recovery and ROMs..
So, sorry if this is a noob question..
I really need urgent help!
I am on V20a (ESA-XXX) and have successfully rooted my phone.
I tried installing CWM using this method..

SOLUTION:
Reflash .kdz via Software Upgrade Mode (hold Power button and Volume - )
Dude, reflashing your phone should work. As long as SW mode is still accessible, your phone isn't dead yet. Follow the instructions on this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35971349 Be freaking sure all necessary drivers are properly installed.
Or you can put your phone in recovery mode (power + vol +) and reinstall the stock rom using recovery LG tools providing your Internet connection is fast and stable

hey dude, i have flashed 7 times exactly since this morning only. and i have gotten that error 3 times of those 7. so it should not be a problem
Thanks!
After a few attempts, was able to go to the s/w upgrade mode.. (power + vol(-) )
Reflashed .kdz and it's all good.. (had to root again)
Actually, i was freaked out more coz it's my new phone and i didn't find others with the problem..
I hope that this thread would help if anyone faces a similar problem in the future..

You needed to unlock bootloader first, either "adb reboot oem-unlock" or download terminal emulator, root the phone and type:

So if I understood you right, you tried to install CWM without unlocking your boot loader? So now you got a boot image error? I'd suggest to try LG Mobile Support Tool and flash V20A/V20B and then unlock Boot loader. Even if you're on "official JB" as of now, installing CWM without unlocked bootloader screwed your boot image and there's no way to do anything without flashing back a kdz.

Hi Guys,
**Alert : Noob Here **
So, I decided to install some custom ROM on my Samsung Galaxy ACE S5830 and went through loads of information on how to do so. So this is what i did - ( from the start) :
a. Rooted the phone ( from a file called upd_1.zip ( 925KB) by going into recovery mode)..
It worked fine and my phone got a 'superuser' on the application drawer.
b. Installed 'recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix' using the recover mode. ( had to rename the file to update.zip coz the recovery mode was not reading the file ).. Worked properly as i got another application 'CWM' on my application drawer.
c. Now, just to check if my CWM was doing good in recovery mode, I switched off my cell, pressed 'vol-up + home + power-up' button to go into recovery mode.. I got some text on the top left corner of the screen with a SAMSUNG logo on the screen...and then it got stuck there...i waited for some time but nothing happened.
I removed the battery and tried switching on the phone normally ( just power-up the phone ) (just to ensure that it still works) and now, the phone is stuck with the SAMSUNG logo on the screen and doesn't work at all !!!
I am confused as after installing CWM, i did switch on the phone normally and it seemed to work fine..but now after I pressed 'vol-up + home + power-up' buttons, its stuck at the black screen with LOGO on it...
Any clue what's wrong with my phone??

You have used the wrong combo & have got yourself in the ram dump mode. The combination for recovery is, power + home button simultaneously & when something appears on phone, leave the power button while still holding the home key. Btw, no need to announce a high alert that you're a noob or such unless you're a badass

Should I flash my phone with stock firmware as advised by the guys above?
GUYS !!!
I restored the phone with stock ROM and a tutorial from another member about flashing stock ROM from ODIN got my cell working !!!
Yayyy !!!
( I was **** scared when read the line that if the flashing fails in first 15 secs ( boot loader flashing) my phone is bricked ):fingers-crossed:
Thanks a lot guys - all of you ...for the help...:victory:
**BUT**
I still want to instal custom ROM to my device...and since I ve committed a mistake in he past doing so, will any1 would be kind enough to show me the path ( link ) to enlightenment ( installing custom ROM from the start ) ?
So,
I thought its better to search for things ranther than troubling you guys to spoon feed me everything...
For rooting, I am gonna try doing everything from the start and be a little more attentive.
1. So, from hubix's guide, I downloaded the below mentioned bold file:
"SuperOneClick 2.3.3 (for 2.2> firmwares) or Universal Gingerbread Root/Unroot (for 2.3< firmwares)"
2. To install CWM , i downloaded the following file :
"ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6 (Fixed!)""
3. Since my phone Android version is 2.3.6, I would go with 'Db' method of rooting :
"Db. Rooting for 2.3.x (NEW METHOD!):
Download file called universal_gb_root_v25.zip and copy it to your sdcard
Turn off your phone
Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
Select update from sdcard, select the file universal_gb_root_v25.zip
After the update completed - reboot
Now you have rooted S5830"
4. Then, follow up the the Flash Custom Recovery steps from the same page, which is as follows :
Put recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.zip into SD Card
Turn off your phone
Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
Select Update Zip From SD-Card option. [If you are on previous version of CWM recovery then you might need to select Install Zip From SD Card and then Choose Zip From SD Card Option simultaneously. ]
Select recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.zip and flash it
Reboot your device
Please let me know if I am correct or will following these steps would screw up my phone again ???
You're correct.

Cool..now coming to installing the custom ROM, can I install any custom ROM ? Because in few of the ROM's, there is something mentioned as
"This Rom is based on CyanogenMod 10.1 for Galaxy Ace"
What is this supposed to mean ?? Are there any other parameters which decide on the factors on what ROMs can be costumed installed??
( for example in some ROM i also saw something to do with ext partition )

I probably can't. But you can try as followed:
- Install Samsung drivers + start ODIN (You probably already have)
- Pull out battery
- Put in USB cable (I'm sure you have tried another cable yet)
- Press key combo for download mode (Vol down + power + home)
- Put the battery back in while still holding down the keys.

First of all search. Everything is already explained.
Flash kdz and then set up again(root,bootloader,CWM..)

The problem is that I can not connect the phone so I cannot flash the KDZ, do you have a good tutorial how I can flash it?
Have you already got CWM installed on your phone? If you have you need to do power on and volume up, not volume down so put a ROM on the SD card first, full wipe and flash a new ROM and gapps.. If that doesn't work then you need to try get adb access, and run commands such as adb reboot recovery etc, otherwise you need to reflash the .kdz of stock, if you search you'll find it!

Hey Bionic, do you know a good tutorial how I can get adb acces onto my phone?
@bionicsquirell It is volume DOWN + Power button don't spread misinfos.
@memo357 did you try holding Volume down while plugging into the PC? See if it will light up and show new devices on PC, then start searching here and you'll figure it out. If nothing happens, you're in too deep I'm afraid..

Volume UP still works to boot to recovery, just tried it now, its not misinfo ^.^
If your bootlooping maybe you could use adb to reboot to recovery!
I had this problem. I had to flash the stock boot loader on. Google search should have an lg exe for it. And instructions. I found it pretty easy and once back it should work. You will have to root again and just make sure you unlock your bootloader before applying a custom recover. The exe is called LG mobile support tool, the exe to restore the bootloader.
