G-Key Recovery - LG Optimus Black

Hi Guys,
I am using Zues rom 6.4n on my OB. Huexxx included G-key recovery so whenever I got bootloop and if I had Zues Rom Installed, I can easily go in recovery mode.
Strange thing happened today. I have recovery 6.0.1.4. I did take backup of Stock rom first and Installed CM10.2. I found some bugs so rebooted in recovery, restored backup (stock rom). When I restarted my phone, it couldn't even see boot animation. Phone got stuck on LG logo. I had to use smartflash tool to revert back to stock rom with root. That time since I didn't have Zues ROM, G-key recovery didn't work.
Can anyone give me any solution on this? Also, can anyone help me how to create G-key recovery zip file which will help when phone gets stuck in bootloop?
Thanks,
Sumedh

[Q] While Flashing Restart (after Checking state of BML/MTD)

I wanted to flash CyanogenMod 7.1 on my Samsung Galaxy S.
I flashed before a Froyo Bootloader (because I had Firmware 2.3.3) on it, copied the CM7.1 Rom on internal storage and tried to flash through Recovery.
While updating it shows me the install process till:
Checking state of BML/MTD
then it interruptes the install process and restarts the phone. But then it just shows me the Samsung logo and nothing happens (=freeze).
No chance to start the phone, altough I restart it several times.
Then I can flash again with Odin to the starting state again. The files for that I found here (german):

How can I flash CM7.1 now..?
Sometimes the cm7 rom will need flashed twice....you should be able to flash from any gingerbread rom also as cm7 was updated a while back to allow this. Try again, and if the phone starts bootlooping-pull the battery, replace and get into recovery-then reflash rom.
Unfortunately i cant enter recovery after unsuccessful flash. I have to use odin and flash back to old froyo... then i tried to reflash again to cm7.1 but it was always the same.
Thx anyway for ur answer...!
Hmmmmm ;(

no ideas? it is urgent.. ;(
it's really strange. it happened to me and I solved like this:
I removed the battery
volume up key + power button + home button
in recovery,I wipe everything and reflash of the rom
If recovery doesn't work, you need to reflash a stock rom, and a kernel with root and CWM
puuhh, at least another one who had this issue...
ok i understood that if i cant flash to cm7.1 then i have to chosse another rom, maybe just a stock rom.
but can anybody recommend a custom rom which will work? it is just a file system problem here, isnt it?
Done it!
Trying to flash the stable Rom didnt work.
Then i tried the nightly (181) and it took a while then it restarted. but when it was starting for the first time i got a loop while booting.
but this time i could enter the recovery (after stable installation it wasnt possible anymore) and i could reflash it (nightly again). and this time it worked!!! yeah finally after over 8 hours of work....
i hope i could help somebody who has got same issues
Glad you got it -and cm9 is now an easy upgrade from the latest nightly

[Q] Stuck installing CWM. Pls help

My phone was bricked yesterday. Then I used SMF to recover, so I turned back to v10a. (from smart flash tool)
Installed Rom manager rooted and installed marvel rom.
Then I tried miui 2.1 rom.
Then i tried to restore my backup(marvel) what i did with rom manager. Phone bricked again.(Blue screen on android)
Then I used SMF to recover again. --> v10a.
Now in rom manager pressin flash cwm button in menu but nothing happens. I rooted phone. Root is workin well in other programs like Titanum. Tried reboot into recovery causes factory reset bcs of cwm i think.
Any way to solve this problem? Or can I install zipaligned rom like marvel, zeus without cwm? Like S/E tool. Power + volumeUp...
Did you do all the wipes before flashing the rom?
Didn't you missed any step?
I cant see even recovery menu. To wipe data/dalvik.
I coulnt flas cwm, so when Im trying to do reboot into recovery via Rom Manager, skips that menu(controlled with volume and power buttons dont know the name) and v10 is booting with factory reset.
Do you have an internet connection when trying to flash cwm?
Trolling in the deep
Just root it again, reboot, install busybox, reboot, install cwm and all should work just fine

Yes I had internet. I installed Rom Manager from market.
I will follow this link. It gives you offical 20o Rom rooted and touch version of cwm. Hope it will work for me.
And I realized that I really missed LG's UI.

You probably forgot "wiping" before restoring your nandroid. Any this shall be a lesson. From now on you won't forget.
had the same problem before, i always had a bug installing CWM, caused factory reset everytime , but when i downloaded it again it works well..

I've never wiped before restoring a nandroid, and believe me I've flashed my OB a lot while i was debuting my Lezo mod.

I solved the problem. Now I have offical 20o ROM offical and rooted. Happy with that. Until stable CM7 or MIUI release I will stop trying ROMS.

How to install CWM recovery

Friends.
I recently installed fde rom having cwm recovery version 3.0.2. When I tried to return to gdx 28b it gave me an error and I accepted roms option of restoring recovery and could boot to gdx. But now the issue is I don't find cwm recovery when I reboot. How do I reinstall cwm recovery without going back to stock rom?

Can you boot in ROM? If so, boot in Fde, grab x8toolbox, plug phone in pc, enable usb debugging, and install CWM or FreeXperia recovery. If you can't boot into Rom, then shut your phone off. Turn it on again, press the screen repedeatly. If CWM doesn't show up, turn your phone off again, start it, and press&hold the volume down button until FreeXperia recovery shows up. If nothing shows up, flashtool is there for flashing ftf of stock rom.

Press thanks if i helped
It is clasic problem of stock kernel.There is no way without re flashing with flashtool .
Solved. After trying many things, went back to stock and repeated everything till gdx28.
CWM for X8 Stock rom only, I meant as ur Original recovery u can't use CWM, only can XRecovery.....
I Saw that from web and I didn't believe it that time, so i installed CWM on a custom rom then it stucked at SE Logo.....
u only can use CWM come with custom roms, but some roms don't work it

Recovery mode dont work and alway get factory reset

Hi,
I installed v30b for test but now i want to go back on cm10. I flashed a stock v20 with cwm with smartflash and i was able to boot in recovery. I tested to load my v20 rom but that alway come back to recovery, impossible to load my v20 rom. So, i tried to install cm10 and all was ok. But when i try to go in recovery mode, the phone restart without going into it and do a factory reset.
Now each time im trying to go in recovery mode, cm10 do a factory reset
What i can do for resolve this problem?
Flash cwm with rom manager
Sent from my phone powered by cm10, Big thanks to RC
Rom manager said im on 5.0.2.6. So i can only install the version 6 of cwm but it dont work(cant mount sd card)
So its impossible to install again 5.0.2.6 by rom manager. Because rom manager dont show old cwm version like before
Its very strange because before my v20cwm rom worked. Now i got boot loop in recovery mode. And if i install cm10, its impossible to go in recovery without factory reset
I tried to flash cwm with PC and i alway get "access denied" (debug on, mass storage off)
Oh yes i got it from ZEUS rom. Flashed cwm from UPK kit pack
thx!

Recovery boot loop

This always happens to me, I installed cwm and it works fine, but I can't normally boot my phone it just boot loops once and again, I just can go into recovery mode, that's it.
Last time I flashed cwm it happened the same, but I can't remember what I did
Help please

Was there a kernel included with the CWM files?
If on a stock Sony ROM re-flash a stock ROMs kernel via flashtool
If your using a non Sony ROM try flashing a kernel that matches the ROM you're using
