Bricked your phone/by deleting lg home luncher - Optimus One, P500, V General

Well I'm here to help you the same thing happened to me and i found a much user friendly fix
before you do any think READ ALL THE STEPS FIRST.. AND NOTE IM NOT TO BLAME IF YOU MAKE YOUR PHONE WORST/something goes wrong.. FOLLOW THESES STEPS AT YOUR OWN RISK
1. Factory reset your phone( If you didn't flash an custom recovery just look up the combo keys for such a task) sorry don't remember at the moment
2. Reboot your phone and it should run the set up wizard like when you first got your phone
3. Go through the steps and make sure you sign in to your Gmail account and have A connection either that would be your 3g or you turn on The wifi when asked
4. When done and you click finish you should be at a black screen and the status bar should be there pull it down to make sure it's working..
5. Android market time send a home launcher to your phone any one.. If that doesn't work for some reason.. This is where gmail comes in play
6. Just get to your near by computer and get an apk of an home LUNCHER file and send it to your gmail.. I would tell you where to find a free one but can't post wired stuff on the site sorry.
7. Your phone should get it and all you do is excess it from the status of bar. It takes you to your gmail app of course and you install it from there.. You MAY run into not having unknown sources checked but it should promt you to check it.. And if you can't get back to gmail the back button/ hold home button should get you back there.. And install and there you go.. You have got your phone back with no kdz or whatever you call it/ others.. If don't want to go through that this should just work fine.. Oh another thing.. (((If your phone Does reboot but you can't unlock it just get someone to call you then end the call and you should be on the home screen with a blank screen then just FOLLOW STEPS 5-7))

I found that simply reflashing using the LGMDP program or if have recovery use cubes recovery files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168245 works well (make sure you have right v20x baseband for you are), both take about 5 minutes and I had a similar problem to you but everything other than the status bar was force closing.

open your phone up. take the battery off. The IMEI should be there along with serial number. Good luck
Touchscreen problem
Yesterday I start with a similar problem.
Using several Android builds on the same stock memory card.
The touchscreen stops responding always when I try to
reboot or turn off the phone, the same on all Android builds
and on WinMO. But locking the phone brings the touchscreen
back to life. Then I am able to unlock the phone and the
touchscreen keeps working OK.
Will try flashing the updated stock ROM.
you run hspl3 again , but select the other option with the extra.oooo, 208.000 , by default hspl3 installs the one to allow roms to work,,, when you rerun hspl3 select the other to set back to original so you can send back to factory anfter u install the t-mobile original rom

[Q] Strange boot looping problem- Gt-i9100

Hi everyone! Im a noob here so I do aplogize if this problem has been solved/mentioned. Well, this is my problem: Ok so my stupid friends took my phone when I wasn't using looking and screwed up my pattern lock so I have to enter my email and password to unlock my phone, right? Well, I was busy so instead I switched off my device and kept it in my pocket. After an hour or so, I felt my phone getting heated up which was weird because it was turned off, so I checked on it and this is what I see: The boot animation was showing up and is stuck at the 'S' logo flashing bit with it vibrating occasionally, the 'menu' and 'back' buttons lights up once in awhile. Oh, and the occasion screen bright up. So i went ahead and tried holding the power button and the same thing happend but this time it lets me in and for a few secs..thn comes out to the boot animation again:crying:... So now I suspect that the lock process has crashed ...any way to fix it? The main thing here is that I need to somehow access the device long enough to copy my stuff to my computer. And of course, fix my well loved phone sorry if my post is very long.....Please help and thanks in advance!!!!!
Can you boot to recovery? (Home + Power + Vol. up)? If you can just do factory reset.
Ill try it, but will it affect all my files?
Your files should be fine. You will lose your app and user data but that's a small price to pay for fixing your phone.
if u can enter to cmwr, then u could make a nandroid back up. this way when u flash up a new rom you could try restoring only data information in advance options in Nandroid back up..
is your phone rooted?? do u have a CMWR???
if not, the only thing u could do is flash a new rom through ODIN.

Trying to go back to Stock P769

surenzxx said:
I recently installed CyanogenMod with the Unlock Bootloader for noobs and I noticed the internal SD wasn't mounted. So I tried to flash an ICS ROM to see if it would work but it didn't. I was stuck at the boot screen. I tried restoring an ICS CWM backup and a JB backup but it didn't work. Currently, I have a flashed JB backup with a messed up touchscreen (because of the way I unlocked the boot-loader). It won't boot and I don't know how I can install the stock ROM. I really just want my phone to work at this point. I don't know if there's any way to use the offline method to flash a .kdz since I can't access android. I tried hard resetting, but when I do it starts up Clock Work Mod which I believe happens because of the way I unlocked boot-loader.
I'm trying to use this guide to fix it using SW upgrade. I did find a .bin and .fls which i'm downloading right now.
If anyone could help or give some advice that would be great. I really just want to use my phone, I don't care about flashing a custom ROM right now. As long as my phone works, I'll be happy.

Let me know if this works for you! Also you can do the offline fix just as long as you can get into S/W Upgrade mode. But I am curious to see if you can use the bin/fls files tool that you mentioned to get your phone working again.

Thanks for the reply! I'm planning on trying this method out tomorrow and ,if you don't mind, could you please elaborate on how I can do the offline fix with S/W Upgrade mode? I'll check back on the forum tomorrow!

Well just get your phone into S/W Upgrade mode and follow this tutorial. Getting into S/W Upgrade:
1. Get stock ROM here.
2. Turn off your phone
3. Press and hold the vol + button while inserting USB to computer
4. Keep holding the vol + until you see the S/W upgrade mode
5. Flash ROM with tutorial mentioned above.
Good Luck!

Isn't that just an infobank of all the KDZs? I'm pretty new, but can you flash a kdz with the offline method? To clarify, I was asking how to flash the kdz with the offline method in S/W upgrade mode. So ROMs/KDZs are essentially the same, right?
Edit: I read everything over again and realized what KDZs really are. I'm just wondering now if I could just hard reset in some other way because the LG Update Tool doesn't recognize my phone even though I see all the drivers. It's stuck at 15%.
Edit 2: I tried the method I suggested and it resulted with "Magic number does not concide".
So I'm stuck here with a phone that is stuck in bootloop, and has CWM installed. Can anyone help?

alright, this is all from memory but the offline flash didnt work as well for me when stuck in weird bootloops.
Step one-going back to online flash---->
A---
the easiest way i found was to go to C:/windows/system32/drivers/ect/hosts
right click>open with notepad
there should be two lines at the bottom
"127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com
127.0.0.1 csmgdl.lgmobile.com"
i would cut them out and paste them in a text doc in the same folder for reference later...
but either way you should remove them from the hosts file and save
B----
Make sure your small server is closed! once you minimize it it should go down to your status bar (shttps)
Step two-LGMS---->
make sure you have LG mobile support installed or install it.
open lg mobile support
install needed drivers for your phone
power your phone off/remove the battery
put battery back in
connect it to your computer holding down the volume up button
S/W UPDATE mode should pop up, if it doesn't preform and hardreset and try again til it works (it will)
then in the top right corner there should be a button or two click them both until you see
"restore update" or Update restore or something to that effect
select that
and let it ride man
i got my phone ****ed many times and just had to keep redoing this until it worked. if your bootloader is truely unlocked you can probably go through all that again and get CM10 working, i did but im still working through kinks.....
GOOD LUCK feel free to ask any more Q's about this process if you run into any problems

surenzxx said:
Hello! Sorry for the late reply. Before I start, do you mean LG Mobile Support form when I unlocked the boot-loader, if not could you provide a link to it? And by the way, when I tried hard resetting, the phone sent me back to CWM, any ideas why?
I was reading the CM10.2 notes yesterday and I realized there isn't supposed to be an internal SD card showing up when you plug in your phone to your PC. So I did tried fixing what wasn't broke.
Anyway, thanks for the info!

that could work, but i just downloaded the LG Mobile Support that i found from a google search. im pretty sure it was just from lg's website
GOOD LUCK
was your phone off before you hit the vol up and home, then clicked power for three-five seconds?

Such a late reply, sorry! I did nothing. Before you replied I flashed CM10.2 but never bothered to boot up my phone. Preparing to connect my phone to my comp, I couldn't start CWM so I figured " I'll just leave my phone plugged in for a few hours." Two hours later, my phone has a blank screen, i'm thinking "This shouldn't be blank? What the hell?." I pressed the power button and was greeted with Cid. I screamed out loud: "**** yeah!"
If people have the same problem as me all I did was: Reflash my my phone with 10.1, stock, 10.1 again, and then 10.2. I did that, only that.
What's funny is that I never checked to see if my phone was working after I flashed CM10.2. :silly:
Can't wait for Kit-Kat. Thank you for keeping up with my post, CROSSFREEZE I appreciate it!
Edit: I might submit a really specific and simplified version of the "Unlock Bootloader for Noobs P769" for the take of contributing.

Galaxy S2 USB Problem

Hello xda.
First of all I want to applogise for individual thread, but I'm desperate because I think I f**ked my phone..
The problem is that the phone doesnt want to connect to USB anymore..
I'll try to explain how I get there.
I rooted my phone. I did it like this : watch?v=wLQ51Pg77q4
All good till here.
Then I wanted to install Galaxy S4 Weather Widget Tried it like thid dude - /watch?v=pCeBOz8bxlc
I downloaded Astro File Manager and Solid Explorer trying to replace the Weather Widget.
Astro couldn't delete or replace those files and I finally managed to delete them with Solid Explorer one by one ( couldn't delete all of them together ) and copied the S4 Weather Widget ones.
The problems started when i restarted my phone. When I added the widget the screen started to flicker.. couldn't to anything about it so I decided to install the original firmware 4,1,2 JB.
I downloaded it from the internet and installed with odin what I tought it would be the original JB 4,1,2 for S2 like it stated in the description but I don't think it was the original one.. ( exact same kernel as I had - I bought the phone with 4,1,2 JB installed )
Sinced I managed to fix my phone ( I tought that way ) I rooted again and installed Titanium Backup.. and deleted ChatOn.. ( I wanted to delete all unnecessary apps )
After reboot the phone couldnt boot.
I flashed again the firmware I found on the internet and wanted this time to only install Galaxy S4 Weather Widget and nothing else ( except games and "normal" apps )
I could't do it again and I gave up.. and tought that if I go to Settings > Factory Reset and reset the phone I will have it clean and I'll stop installing things I couldnt do..
But..now the phone does not recognize anymore USB Cable and i have some serious bugs, like the phones sometimes charges when i connect charger... sometimes it does not.. the battery % drops from 99 % to 87 % very very fast..
To make the long story short I want to install the original JB 4,1,2 for Galaxy S2 but I can't do it because my phone charges sometimes when i connect it to USB but it doesn't 'see' it and I can't hear that sound that PC used to do when I connected the phone and the USB cable ( USB Debugging turned on ).
Pleaseeee helllppppp
my usb port is dying too. phone keeps flipping between car mode and normal charging at like 20 times in a second when sometimes it goes out of its mind,
Q.was this s4 weather widget caper worth making your phone unuseable.
Is it worth someone telling you how to resurrect your phone.....as my guess is your only going to muck it up again by attempt no.3 at that weather widget install.

Q. Does it help you to feel better to be like that ?
I need help to "ressurect" my phone, do you think I'll even download S4 lockscreen from android market if I'll make it work properly ?
But i agree to your message in this post, I was stupid and acted like a child and now i suffer the consequences....
If somebody knows how to fix this pleaseeeee posttttt
So nobody seems to know even on this high-rated forum...
I'm f**ked
try to use a NukeCleaner and flash a custom Rom or stock rom, I prefer Custom rom since it is more updated and has more features
As @KingOfDope said, nuke your phone clean using hawkerpauls script, and i recommend flashing a stock firmware with odin and NOT root it until you have some more knowledge of this stuff... And if you do flash a custom rom, do not ever delete your system files, just freeze chaton if you hate it, and don't take youtube videos as legit instructions, if you want a GS4 weather widget, search in xda and read the whole thread.
Can one of you help me with NukeCleaner pleaseeee ?

I've answered your private message, but i guess i should start a thread with instructions, too many people asking this lately because they don't want to read the thread...
#HarlemShake: okey, so download all the file i just said (rom.zip, gapps.zip, cwm.zip)
#HarlemShake: power off your device
#HarlemShake: hold volume up + power button and home button till you are on the recovery mode
#HarlemShake: choose, install a zip, and choose cwm.zip
#HarlemShake: and when you are on clockwork recovery mode, install a zip again and choose this time the rom.zip and than gapps.zip when you are done, go back to home menu and choose format data, and you are done. reboot and wait (the first boot will take awhile)
Kindofdope helped me and told me to do this in order to "unf**k" my phone.
Cant do that.
When im in recovery mode i only have:
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apple update from external storage
wide data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache

Root gone wrong,sumsung galaxy s6 edge help !!!

Hey guys, let me just get straight to the problem i'm having yesterday my friend download an app on my phone called (KING ROOT)
he used it on his s3 and my brother used it on his s6 (not edge) and it worked smoothly for them.. however when he started to root my phone using this app it got to 71-75% and the phone went off and on and got stuck at the sumsung logo with these words on the top in red (KEANEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING)
now i can't go into odin mode i can't do nothing it just freezes like that until the battery turns off.. and when i press and hold the volume button with the home button it shuts down and in 1 or 2 seconds it goes back to the freezing logo screen with the RED words i mentioned.. an please note that my s6 edge is getting super hot so i'm placing it in front of my fan till the battery shuts down.
Please help ASAP my fellow andriod users.
I have sort of the same problem, I was able to do root my phone, but then I went into settings, then Unroot. After this process my phone started to restart by itself every couple of minutes. I turned it off and tried to turn it back on, then It was just stuck on the T-Mobile logo. Ive tried using Odin, but I get a Fail. I tried with Odin 3.10.7 and TTMB1AOCG_G925TUVU1AOCG_HOME.tar.md5 Please let me know If I am doing something wrong.

I honestly have no idea buddy..
because i searched the internet upside down and i didn't find any problem like mine..
So i went to a place where they fix phones.. and they told me there's still hope that we can fix your phone... he told me he'll continue the root and when i asked why did this happen he said probably a missing file !!
so the continuing of the root will hopefully fix it.. it will cost me 30$
so i advice you to do the same thing bro seek a professional. :good:
If your not comfortable doing it yourself then pay someone else. (And dont mess with your phone in the first place) did you check kingroot works with your phones' software version?
Otherwise try download mode holding power + home + vol down and emergency restore with smart switch.
Excuse me ? Are you giving me lessons here ? If you know what should be done then tell me if not don't talk at all... Plus if you actually read what i wrote you would know that download mode isn't available. Keep your comments to yourself man.
You can go into download mode by forcing the phone off by holding the power button and the home key for some seconds and immediately press the volume down button whiles the phone boots up automatically. This will take you to download mode
You guys just dont like to read what i wrote dont you ? I already said it... I can't go to download mode no matter what i do even pressing and holding the volume and the home button.

Every time you mention download mode you don't say about holding ALL 3 BUTTONS. If you can't get into download mode using all 3 buttons you are screwed.

I don't want to be rude, but are you sure you can't get into odin mode, because i also had this problem a few months ago, and i could not get into recovery mode, however getting into odin mode was no problem. For a samsung device this is: Holding the start button, volume down and power on button. When you get into odin mode you need to flash the stock firmware and everything will be as it is. It is important to check with these one click apps like kingo root before you root, and also I believe with android 5.1.1. it is not possible anymore to use these apps and therefore need to flash a custom kernel in order to root. Hope this helps.

You need to clear cache on play store app then retry it. Or alternatively look on apkmirror and redownload the play store from there. It could be that you need to update it. After you get playstore back go ahead and re install chrome and browser. Its a good idea to back up your app data to google drive or another storage then when your re install your apps all data is recovered.
