Black screen on my optimus black

Hi all,
Please help me out.I brought my phone 1 week back and installed cyanogenmod 7 on it.But after using it I thought its not so good in terms of look.So I decided to revert it back.I downloaded andoird 2.2 firmware from LG website and used KDZ to install it.But when I was installing it phone restarted automatically and LG logo appears and a black screen came.I tried to install many time but still stuck on this.Please help me..I blocked my internet connection and I tried with different modes like emergency and diag and disabled LG modem in device manager.Nothing is working.Please help me and whether I can get it to LG service center and whether they can find it out that I flash my phone.So that I can repair it telling it is in warranty.Please help me guys.This is my first android phone.

am using V10A_00.kdz india version.Please help me

[Q] LG Optimus 4x HD gets stuck on boot animation,please help

Hi All,
Sorry if this is a duplicate but everything I have seen at least has not helped me further.
I wanted to root my phone yesterday and everything (tutorial here with o4xr) the went well till it installed busy box where the computer froze and then shut itself down and so I tried to turn restart my phone normally. Now its stuck at the bit where the LG animation is and goes no further.
Here is what I have already tried:
Rerunning the o4xr/root method again
Hard Resetting (selected and running all options available)
LG Service App (windows) -> always fails on communicating with device... works up until that and I do see the SW Ugrade splash.
My version is the EURO Open v10h or something like that.
Please help me fix... This is the first phone I havent been able to root, any suggestions?

It worked this time. I guess I was so stressed that I accidently downloaded the wrong firmware. Thanks alot for making me try that route again plus I have a backup now should this happen again.

Nothing like a brick to freak you out with your brand new device, luckily you got it sorted

Not hard brick, but soft brick. There is a huge difference. Just for your info.
from where can I download .kdz file and the main site is telling
ACCESS DENIED
http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/swdata/WDLSW/LGP880/AAREBK/V10b_00/V10B_00.kdz
is there any other links for the .KDZ file to be download from
thank you

[Q] 6 Hours later = Brick... Official LG ICS [SOLVED]

Hey everyone.
I have the LG Thrill (P925) from AT&T. I'm used to changing roms and trying new things.
Well today I get a text from AT&T saying ICS is out, so I go and download the LG Mobile Support Tool
like the text says. The first few times don't work. I got stuck at the LG boot logo. (I didn't wipe the phone before.)
So I wait an hour to 1.5 hours. Still nothing. I try again and search the forums while I wait. Someone says to try using XP.
So I try in XP mode under Win 7. Everything is going well up until 90%. It does the whole driver disconnected sound as per normal
but then it happens. My phone starts up and shows the LG logo for 3/4ths of a second and then restarts (Black screen for 2 seconds) and
then repeats the whole process over again. What can I do?
(EDIT: Almost forgot: I was on CM7 when I tried to go to Official ICS)
All from the official LG tool...
SOLVED
After trying a few things I held the Volume up button and the power button to get it recognized by the computer. Then
I found a different copy of the LG Mobile support tool than what was on their site. I used the recovery phone option and it worked!
Hopefully this will help someone. I'll post where I got the tool soon.
Could you please give a link or tell me where you got the other lg mobile support tool. Because everything was going good for me and my phone restarted after it was done updating. But when it restarted it got hung up at the att animation and it just stays there... The way I got the official lg mobile support tool to recognize my phone was to put it into download mode also.
I got the KDZ_Flashing_Software.zip from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191698
Install the msxml from the zip then you can use the B2CAppSetup program.
Hope it helps.

Did these suggestions work for you? I'm in the same spot (frozen at&t logo). I've tried recovery phone several times to no avail. Trying one last time hoping for a miracle.
I was running a acidhazardrom gingerbread rom before attempting to update to latest official ICS. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I only got to a menu to wipe my device once. I tried many times and the time I got to it it only had one option which didn't seem to help.
byetimmy: Did you try using the tool I suggested in my post?

I found out what I did wrong. I didn't uninstall the version of the LG Support Tool before using the one specified in your first post. I removed the original LG support tool and used the one you found and it worked.
Thanks for your help.

Glad to help.
I know it's something I did, probably the custom image I had running, but the LG Support Tool totally borked my phone. My Thrill would only stay on for a split second, and would continuously boot cycle when plugged into USB. The boot cycle was so fast that half the time it wouldn't even get to the LG logo!
Fixed it with fastboot (omap4boot) and SmartFlash Tool. What a nightmare. Only good thing is I was able to flash from BIN file directly to ICS.

Thanks for your help too. Obviously these issues stem from the fact that we used custom roms on the Thrill. It doesn't help that the LG Tools are complete software crap.

Whoops accidental thanks.
Put in battery before trying to go into SW update mode, it works for me and prevents the random colours. Then KDZ flash your phone back to life.

How long did you wait? 1 minute or 10? Initial boot can take a bit.
Look at the threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111771

There are some tutorials on un-bricking and fixing stuck installs.

I've had glitches on occasion during install, but was always able to get back to recovery and re-install. Re-wiping is VERY important.
I think the important thing is that you were following a procedure, and because of that, you were able to identify where your error was and recover from it.
