Hi all,
I recently decided to do a factory reset on my Optimus V, as my 3G hasn't been working for a month or so. I then realized that I had it rooted and now, my phone is stuck in a recovery loop, it keeps going to a list of clockwork mod options.
So my question is, what do I do?
And also, if I want to put aospCmod on it, then will Virgin Mobile take the phone back for warranty?
And if I just put the stock mod on it, how do I unroot it? Or will Virgin Mobile take the phone back on warranty for repairs if it is rooted?
Thanks for answering my questions in advance!
There is a HOW TO in this very forum.....

A co-worker just brought me his Virgin Mobil LG Optimus V phone, which he recently rooted, and showed me that it is only booting into Clockwork Recovery. He has a nandroid backup of the original ROM but after it's restored the phone keeps booting into recovery. I have a rooted EVO and have never seen or heard of this problem before, so I am reaching out here to the local community to see if anyone has some advice on how to fix this thing. If I can't get it working he's going to buy a new phone this weekend and never root again . I can't allow that to happen, so please help...
I found the answer to the issue in the development section...

Here's the link to the fix in case you are also experiencing this issue.
Okay recently I had downloaded metamorph without backing things up, things turned out bad and now my phone is stuck into a boot loop, heres the main problem, the phone was bough from kroger and so I can figure out how to use the fastboot, or download mode to do anything, because it searches for the cricket wireless platform, and I need the phone for a class I'm taking so I NEED TO REFLASH THIS ROM!!! Please help... Also, this is y first time I have had an android, so I'm kinda not good with the technology yet, so if you can help please go into detail into what to do. Thank you.

Hi there guys.
Recently i bought a LG Optimus Chat C550 and tried to root it using this method which worked great!
After that i installed a few apps including Rom Manager and tried to install ClockWorkMod Recovery though Rom Manager. It ask me which model my phone was but since it didn't had my model there i chose 1 that said "And others", the phone rebooted after awhile and now its stuck on LG screen.
I've been trying everything but with no luck, my PC doesn't recognize the phone nor ADB.
I'm not a expert just usually follow guides/tutorials. I can't find anything about how to fix it here on the forum or on google :/
Does anyone know how i can get it fixed?!
Thanks in advance

Hi I have done exactly the same thing to mine Got a second hand C550 and rooted it then downloaded rom manager then selected phone Optimus V and now just stuck on the LG screen and lights on the qwerty keypad flashing on and off - tried doing a full factory reset by holding end/send/down volume at the same time and that didnt work, if you get any news or fix will you let me know please and I will do the same if I find out something. Cheers.
hi guys,
i dont know how a bricked phone behaves but i came across a situation where my phone was not able to into either recovery mode or download mode.then what i did was,i removed my sd card and to my surprise i was able to go into only download mode.from there i installed a stock rom nd got my phone back working.can anyone explain what actually happened?
This I'd not bricked phone,a bricked phone will not switch on you only get a flashing led( if you have one).
Chances are it was caught in a boot loop while trying to connect sd card.
As long as you got phone working then all is good

Hello
So my friend asked me if i could help him with his Android phone (HTC Desire Z) bicuse he could not call or use the internet on it.
so i said sure ok, then when i had a look on it i saw that it were rooted and had a Costum Rom installed, so i told him i could fix the phone for him then when i got hom i reseted the phone but it didnt work, sill the same problem, so then i held down, down+menu+power to open the cwm boot loader and installed a costum Rom called ViperZ_2.0 it instaled good but when i rebooted the phone it got suck in a bootloop, it starts then i see the cwm boot loader menu :,(
So how do i restore the original rom/fix the phone from the boot loop?
i need to fix the Phone by tomorrow bicuse my friend NEEDS it, he will get extreamly angry at me if i told him that i have broken his phone :crying:
You guys are my only hope, thanks XDA

Did you forget to do a wipe? That usually happens when you don't do a wipe.
