and how you flash from recovery ? i think i can only access the emergency mode now >.< really need help now.
thanks alot for responding !!
im at my wits end, and everything i keep refreshing the page, no one reply. until u.
thank thank
To acess recovery)(if u habe it) shut down o1 and after that press this 3 keys: menu + vol down + power ....after the lg zcreen appears release power button but keep presses the other two,and then u will go into recovwry(if u have it) from here u will install reco ery or flash a new rom.
If u don' t have custom recovery but still cam acces emergency u can try to use Kdz software to flash your oroginal firmware back.there is thread about doing this here.search "how to flash original firmware p500".i think The_error has a thread about this.also u can try to search" phone not responding, last chance to repair".
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
what u mean by if you have it ? as in the recovery.
OK..You need to access recovery via 3 key combo:Shutdown the phone, then pres the Menu key+Volume down key+Power button.When The phone started release power button , but keep pressed the other 2, and then you will enter the recovery.Is it clear until now?After you have entered the recovery go to backup/restore and select restore( if u have made a backup in the first place) if not you must flash a new kernel or a new rom, but don't forget to wipe everything first.

LG P500 Hanging on LG Logo
Hi (my first post),
I tried to change my ROM from 2.2.1 to 2.2 V10G for rooting abilities. I received an error message while the screen was in "Emergency Mode!!" and then KDZ_FW_UPD said "FINISHED". Here are the last few lines from the log:
TYPE_LPARAM_UPGRADE_ERROR_WRITE_TO_FLASH
[21:26:15:103] : WM_COPYDATA ¸Þ½ÃÁö º¸³¿ 3 - Close Port
[21:26:15:103] : Close Port<<
[21:26:15:103] : TYPE_WPARAM_UPGRADE_ERROR
[21:26:15:103] : ¸Þ½ÃÁö º¸³¿ - TYPE_WPARAM_UPGRADE_ERROR Error Code = 500
[21:26:15:146] : Log finished
The phone never rebooted and was stuck in Emergency Mode for 15-20 minutes, so I pulled the battery and tried a hard reset, but the phone doesn't do anything but hang on the LG logo. Any suggestions?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
update: Can't reinstall V10V with KDZ because it doesn't see the phone.
update 2: Used KDZ for V10G in emergency mode with phone in emergency mode (back button + volume up + power)...now we're all good. Thanks.

THE BEST WAY TO COME OUT OF IT IS TO FLASH VIA KDZ FLASHER USE V10B FILE http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata...00/V10B_00.kdz AS IT CAN BE ROOTED http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883314
Sorry bro did the same thing your phone is bricked. Its a 200$ paperweight

Hi!
There's no such thing as bricked phone
Just try to read carefully before doing anything, please.
Now read this post and proceed as follows: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875881
It should get you up an running in notime. Just reply here if you need any help.
as others have suggested , downgrade to 10B with the given app and all should be fine , also the part where you said it hangs in the LG logo screen is a know issue with Mik's ROM , search in his forum and you will see the solution ( its a file you need to flash before you flash the actual ROM ) also you havent told us wich costum recovery you are using ( best one i think is the Thunderg 1.2.1 )
Be sure to wipe EVERTHING( from the costum recovery interface ) before you flash the new ROM specialy when you go from a 2.2 to a 2.3
I'm confused the phone will not do anything but stay on LG screen. No recovery notta.

Without recovery, the only way you can choose is to send it back for warranty, cry for repairing
That's the risk we faced.

By the way, I've heard that someone bricked his phone and got a new one for free here in Taiwan. Seems like that they forgot to check the firmware D
can you access the emergency mode?
ive been stuck with lg logo couple of times,
but still im able to access recovery,
if emerency mode is working, try to reflash using 10B.kdz
this is my first post, using ROM manager (clockworkmod) i tried to back up my current ROM my device(LG P500) was not listed in the selection screen so i chose LG Ally ( i know it has become a blunder now, i think
the phone won't go past the LG LOGO at the start LG logo appears and just with a few seconds goes off and the phone does nothing
if i put it for charging the menu,back,home,search buttons and the LG logo keeps flashing every few seconds
i can't go into recovery already tried it many times, KDz updater won't recognize my phone it says phone not found(windows doesn't detect it either)..the phone won't go past the LG logo
so is this whats called a bricked phone ? and will i get service for this ? i will beg them for warranty but they will repair this right?
PS:i'm sorry this had to be my first post, and i hope i have not posted this at the wrong place
Adren022, put your phone in emergency mode. See previous posts. You should still be able to use KDZ updater to flash V10B (I flashed V10G).
I don't think clockworkmod works on the P500. Try using thunderg for recovery. See "Installing a custom recovery" here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007244
you should of flashed a custom recovery try one start up pressing the power button, volume down, and home button at the same time till recovery

I think that's misleading. That will cause a hard reset of the ROM (losing all apps and settings) if Thunderg (or Clockwork for some) isn't installed first. It happened to me.

[Q] Please help. PHONE BRICKED!!

Hi guys, hoping someone can shed a little bit of light on my issue.
Rooted my phone- all went fine!.
Went to install CWM and all i got was the e3 recover telling me:
Failed to verify signature.
Instillation failed.
So after a little bit of messing about i decided to just leave it and continue on with my day. My phone then ran out of battery. I put it on charge without turning it on and came to find the phone in recovery mode with a fully working version of Clockwork MOD, suprising to say the least. I rebooted the phone and then tried to reboot back into recovery mode, and since then my phone wont load normally or into recovery past the samsung logo.
I dont know what to do because although my phone will go into download mode, it will not work with ODIN, i simply get the message "failed to open serial port."
So i have a phone that wont load recovery, wont load normally, and wont let me install kernals etc through ODIN, please someone help me!
Any help would be great, thanks people.
Hi
I'm new here & have been reading many threads in preparation before rooting my phone.
Its sounds like your phone is stuck in a boot loop, if so read this tread & it should help you out. (sorry if i got it wrong)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108499
peace
The above solution will not work for you, because your have no recovery.
How did you root your phone? To summarize:
1. You rooted your phone.
2. You tried flashing CWM (why?)
3. Flashing failed and you have no recovery anymore?
4. Odin does not recognize your phone anymore.
Correct?
Try a different USB cable to make sure it isn't the cable.
Have you stopped kies on your computer before running odin?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I had the same problem get into Cwm the way you'd get into normal Android recovery so hold vol up + home + power then when the boot screen pops up let go for a millisecond then repush vol up + home + power
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Your phones only bricked if it wont turn on mate. Relax as its most likely fixable. Do as others have suggested and disable kies as its a pain in the backside. Kies doesnt like odin and will crap it up. Install a kernel like chainfires; get into cwm and wipe everything. Dalvik, cache, system. Get a usb jig off ebay for gs2 if you can as thats helped me out. I only use Siyahs kernel or Chainfires as they are the most stable. Good luck.

[Q]S3 bootloop, no recovery nor download mode

I'm using v40 of temasek unofficial cm11, Boefflea version 11 kernel.
while I was using my phone, the phone suddenly went into a reboot and started the boot-loop, even when I pull the battery out and put it back in it starts booting immediately and goes into the boot-loop , whenever I try to go into download mode or recovery mode, once or twice I will be able to reach it, but 3 seconds in, it restarts and goes into the boot loop again (I can't choose between restarting or going into download mode)
would a USB jig help me getting into the download mode or will it be 3 seconds in and restarts?
would a service center help me retain my data as I need them?
Thank you.
momentarily I've managed to be able to access download mode and the laptop started making a sound trying to identify the device, too bad the battery fell off (or the phone restarted) lol
anyways I still need help because I couldn't get into any of them
If the phone starts the moment a battery is inserted then usually the power button is stuck -try giving it a wiggle, or get it replaced.

yeah will do that once this gets fixed lol ..
for some awkward reason, I found out that once I pull out the battery I can use download mode
what should I download?
I tried flashing CWM but I get back to the bootloop ... should I install a newer bootloader?
No, bootloader is irrelevant to firmware. You would be best to flash a full stock rom with odin then factory reset and see if it will boot. I would suspect the power cycling may have caused partition problems if recovery got wiped.

which would mean I would lose all the data in the previous cm11 right?
I'm trying my best to flash a recovery but I think it got wiped for good.. I'm trying to flash it over and over again .. (I unplug the battery once I'm in download mode to prevent the sudden restart) .. before I flashed the CWM through odin I was able to go into a glimpse of a recovery mode, now I can't seem to see it at all...
is there a way to just copy the data (mostly pictures) through odin or adb with my phone current state?
Google says it might be possible

only through recovery mode or hoping your phone would suddenly connect after many boots lol
I don't think that will be my case .. oh well
as long as I can get my phone working again
going back to stock rom didn't fix the issue. can't access anything yet.
any help?
if anyone is reading this, I've been looking everywhere for a stock rom with pit file, I think that's the problem I'm facing since I have different bootloaders and different modes, somewhere around that I jacked my partitions and I think this would help putting it all back
I've found ones for android 4.1 but nothing of 4.3 .. since I came from 4.3 stock rom and then 4.4 kitkat temasek I think 4.1 won't help me at all
time to go to a service center I guess.
OK this is weird...
after I gave up I put my phone on a recover firmware that for some bizarre reason brought it back to life!!! I just put the phone back and left .. 5 hours later it was on and working.. I was able to access the phone for a brief moment.. but for some reason again I wasn't able to get the touch screen to work... I was able to raise the volume.. restart the phone.. but nothing on touch screen..
then it went back to the dead state...
any ideas?

[Q] Cold dead hard brick S5830i - what is the last resort?

The story:
Got a phone with some software problems when calling from a spouse. Tried to update the ROM and it bricked.
Status:
endless loop of bootscreen
could enter recovery mode and boot CWR
can not enter download mode
unable to boot system
Tried endless guides and instructions with stock ROM's and firmwares. Some of them installed some didnt - none worked. Still in endless loop.
Gave up yesterday and went to bed to keep trying today.
Now its totally bricked.
- no recovery mode
- no download mode
- no boot screen
- cant connect to PC via USB (Odin wont recoqnize)
The only sign of life - whatever I do it has black screen with backlight on but nothing else.
What can I do? They say that a broken phone is only with hardware problems but could I have f**** up the software so much that its the same?

You can try this guide by @SuperMini to force open Download Mode from odin. Here is the link,
How to unbrick Samsung Galaxy Ace
Make sure to use the key combination of Download Mode for your device as the one mentioned in the guide is for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830. If that doesn't work, then you can try the USB Jig (not always guaranteed to work). If USB Jig did work, then it will force open the Download Mode so you can flash stock rom back using odin. If USB Jig doesn't work either, then your last option is to consult the Service Center. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

1. make sure you have installed drivers on your computer
2. remove battery > connect phone to computer > press volume buttons and lock key
3. if you get a black screen just press the volume up button.
odin will recognize the device
if this does not work then try multi-formatter
using it, format rfs partition and then install some custom rom.

[Q] S3 bricked? need some help

Yo guys well it eventually had to happen someday. Well i will try to explain what exactly happenend.
I had the Sensation 5 Rom on my device. which means i was on 4.4.2 the CWM recovery is 6.0.4.7
yesterday i decided to flash back to the Revolution HD Rom which is 4.3 if im not mistaken... i didnt change the cwm recovery.
There were no problems while flashing and the Revolution HD Rom was working fine until today when i decided to boot into recovery Mode.
(My hardware PowerButton is defect thats why i took it out of my phone so yeah there is no Power Button on my S3)
Because i cant use the 3 button combo to get into Recovery i used the App quick boot and used the App to boot into Recovery mode.
Now from there on my Problem begins. The Samsung Logo appears then the phone boots into Recovery but only for roughly 1 second.
The only thing i can see is the circle with a hat in the middle (the logo) and the cwm version on the bottom before the phone shuts down and everything starts again...its kind of a bootloop only going into recovery mode for 1 second and then starting a new.
Which mena si CANT use recovery Mode and i ALSO cant get into Download Mode somehow... ive tried holding the Volume down button and Home button and everything but i cant get the phone into download Mode so yeah phone is stuck in that Bootloop which i explained above.
Do u guys think that a Usb Jig from Amazon would actually work getting the Phone into Download Mode? or is it a lost cause and i should start looking for a new phone? ^^
i would appreciate any answers a lot !
No one who can help? :/

well if i try adb the device isnt shown as connected because well the phone restarts every 2-3 seconds.
If there is still any other way wich it could work without a usb jig that would be awesome
ive found a thread over google which said something about sp tools and scatter files....looked like it was possible to change the files of the phone while it was shut down....Does somebody on here know if this is possible?
