Which rom do you use? Probably you should shut down your phone and then press simultaneously power and volume down. Up to when you hear the second vibrate, now you should only push volume down. Then your recovery should appear

Bootloader locked or unlocked??
Remeber the more info you give less question I have to ask.
Model, rom, bootloader, root status etc
Unlocked bud
Then flash kernel image from Rashr app. Choose any stock based kernel. I like ok kernel. In the zip extract the boot image and then flash it through Rashr app from playstore. There you go kernel and recovery.
IL try now stock kernel only yea?

Whats some rom? Be more precise please. You ll always be able to unbrick it using smartflash. But maybe you should simply use an unrooted rom... just use b2c tool and the option emergency recovery. And then first read, what you have to do, what it does and which kind of results you will be confronted with, then try again.
Dont mean to flame, but it seems you already did it wrong twice...

I think you can do it in Marvel ROM, you just have to start pressing for a few times the G button while booting

One Advice : Try to redownload the FTF fiel or try another one (from another country).
I personnaly had succeess using the FTF from UK (and I am from another country) and no issue at all.

Just try CM or PAC, those roms work fine. There was another case on here of somebody who had the same problem when flashing a MAHDI rom.
Just read the thread of the rom before you start flashing, or at least read the last 5-10 pages so you know what the status of a rom is about.
Hope you get a nice new rom on your phone! I'm using the CM10.1 29.10.2013 build from ubberlaggydarwin for a long time now without ANY problems, just working perfectly, it's here:

Hi! I have an lg OB running ics 4.0.4(V30B). The phone it's rooted and I have CWM installed from Rom Manager. I can acces Recovery from Rom Manager and with the phone off ( VOLUME PLUS + G KEY). The problem is that I can't flash any Rom bellow ics (not even with Smart Flash Tools) without getting bootloops. I can flash Roms based on ics and above( IZS,CM10.1,NAMELESS ROM NIGHTLIES 4.4.4).
Could someone help me?

I was hoping you fixed the issue. I don't know what to do.
It's a matter of unlocking the boot loader. Once you do that, you can jump back and forth between ICS-based ROMs and everything else.
Gingerbread ROMs include the boot loader (marvel and Huexxx).

Man I can flash ICS-based ROMs .JB and KK, I can't flash GB stock or GB-based ROMs, not even with SFT.
I think the bootloader it's unlocked because I can acces CWM from switch off phone(key combo)....I am confused because i read many tutorials but they are contradictory
That happends also with me 2 times.

No, I don't tried to unlock bootloader, but like you , I got the bootloops every time I downgrade from ICS, Nameless or cyanogen roms . I use original Froyo - flashed with SFT , then upgrade to GB with Cwm recovery patch- flashed with SFT, then boot to recovery and install Nameless.

Did you already try the alternative way without the app? Which means load the files to your sdcard and afterwards type the dd if=xxxx of=xxxx? This could show if it works or fails. And did you ever flash the LU5900 port? So the early ICS ROM released by Redy, Gabwerkz and me. Try the manual unlock first.

OK I have the terminal emulator on my phone.
I've read the thread and it says "Move this two files, bootloader and recovery to the root of memory sdcard;
Enter in the command line
su
dd if=/sdcard/u-boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
And reboot or reboot recovery."
I have downloaded all on my laptop(bootloader recovery and su) but I am confuse....what's with that "su"?
Do I have to put it on the root of the sdcard too?

Hi guys,
Ok, so I've searched through everything and I still can't find an answer to my problem. So, basically, I have just installed Cyanogenmod 11 on my Xperia SP successfully using CWM recovery and then I wanted to reboot my phone again into CWM, so that I could install gapps, but I just couln't. Despite pushing right buttons while booting or making him boot into recovery mode, he always turns on the system. I can't get into flash tool either, but maybe it is because I have a blocked bootloader. I don't know if it's a valid info, but I have used "Wipe data/factory reset" before installing Cyanogenmod 11.
Please, help me, as I have no clue what to do now :<

Maybe his bootloader can't be unlocked.
But if it can be (just dial *#*#7378423#*#* and check bootloader status), I too would suggest unlocking it. Makes flashing and customizing so much more easier and there infinitely more ROM's and other files to choose from.
Of course take a TA backup before you unlock your bootloader or your warranty's gone for good.
