PSA...If you use LGNPST, do not hard reset your phone. - AT&T LG Optimus G

There have been 2 bricks so far and as of now there is no fix. If you do decide to LGNPST and perform a hard reset by turning your phone off and holding volume down + power, you will brick your new lgog. Apparently LGNPST does not wipe data, which is why I I tried to reset mine. Maybe you could factory reset before you use LGNPST but NOT after.
Edit: It appears that if you are able to reset in the phones general settings menu then you will be OK. But if you can not reset in the general settings menu than I wouldn't try to by holding volume + power and hard resetting. I'm just trying to help out. Good luck to all.

whiteguypl and I have both tried canceling at the reset screen and it wouldn't work for us. No combination of buttons will work either. I've tried disconnecting the battery and that doesn't work either. Thanks anyway for the suggestion, I'm open to try anything.

Just out curiosity when you cancelled. Was your data there or had it already been wiped?
But yeah I couldn't cancel mine either.

Is this "hard reset", the same as doing a factory data reset?

I did LGNPST then noticed all my data was there so I did Factory Reset from the actual phone options and it worked like a charm, no issues...

Are you saying that if you have ever used LGNPST, then you should NEVER again to a full wipe/factory reset from recovery? Or just immediately after using LGNPST?

Can someone please share a link to download LGNPST? Thanks!

LG software sux, this is why im worry about bricking my phone. I like this phone a lot but I'm hesitant to get LG phones.

Maybe if you can do like whoamanwtf did and reset in the general settings menu you might be ok. I tried to reset in the general settings and it would not work.
After I did LGNPST my phone went through all the new phone setup steps but when I got to the lockscreen all my shortcuts were still there and sure enough all my apps with data were still there as well.

We can not provide a link due to some of the rules XDA has. But you are welcome to join #lg-optimus-g on irc and you can get it there.

lyall29 you should update the first post explaining exactly what happened.
I dont think people have a problem if they just do one or the other.
The problem (i believe) comes about if you lgnpst then attempt to factory reset from the settings but it fails and then power off the phone and hold volume down + power to go get the factory reset screen in recovery then it bricks.

Ditto. No problems at all when I did it this way. I am curious though.
To the OP: Why did you LGNPST in the first place? Did you do the N4 conversion?

Lgnpst doesn't wipe your data. It takes you back to stock, unrooted, and locked. Your data will still be there.

I'm pretty sure I did it on mine and it's fine. But you're right that lgnpst doesn't not reset everything. So it must be some other factor.

I bricked my mogul :-(

I have been running the newest release of the sprint rom since it came out a few weeks back. I today loaded the HTC Home app and my phone wanted to reboot and when I did, it comes back up locked up every time.
1. Screen still reacts to touch as far as backlight turning on
2. Somtimes the power button puts it to sleep and wakes it back up
3. Have performed multiple resets (using the sytlus in the reset button), anyway to do a hard reset?
4. Active sync wont connect
5. Never have custom rom'd this before, always have used the sprint roms. Just activesync'd and ran their installer.
Any ideas how to jumpstart a reload of the sprint rom??
Ok first of all...your phone is NOT bricked.
A "bricked phone" is exactly that...bricked. As in it doesn't do ANYTHING and can be used only as a paperweight (i.e. like a brick). People always post that their phone is bricked when it isn't even anywhere close to being bricked. In fact, it is VERY difficult to brick the Titan.
In your case, all you need to do is hard reset. If it locks up right at boot and won't even allow you to hard reset, just reflash the rom. Very simple.

Sounds like you need a hard reset. It will take you back to your default Sprint ROM without the Home app. You will lose all data though.

When you indicate that "it comes back up locked up every time" can you elaborate on the exact symptoms? Does the phone boot and when the home screen attempts to load, the phone freezes/locks and stops responding?
If this is the case, the phone is far from bricked. What you can do is hard-reset which will reset it to the way the rom comes.
Best regards,

If you don't have safe mode (through PocketPlus or other), or through a SPB Backup (or similar) there are very few ways to get this back safely. Hard reset is probably the way to go if you can't get around in the OS. I love PocketPlus safe mode, it has saved me many, many times.
Edit: I agree with the "bricked" comment, it is an attention grabber if anything but almost always inaccurate. Can people say stuck instead please?

Oh, and on topic... I didn't see anyone actually posting HOW to hard reset without flashing... this is obviously an easy first step. If you don't intend on changing your ROM, you should be fine doing the following:
hold down the 2 softkeys (the ones with Dots on em) and press reset with stylus... follow instructions on screen
EDIT: Oh, I guess that's in the Wiki! Good stuff those wiki's

Hate to bring back an old thread but it is exactly the problem I'm having. Earlier, I was browsing Facebook on my EVO LTE (completely stock), and it just rebooted on its own. After the HTC screen with the Beats logo at the bottom, I'd get a black screen for a few seconds, and the reboot cycle would start all over again with the HTC quietly brilliant screen... Since then I have not been able to get it to actually start up and load Sense. It just constantly goes HTC quietly brilliant to Sprint to 4G LTE to HTC with Beats logo then black screen and over and over again... Can anyone help? I really don't want to hard reset unless i absolutely have to because I would hate to set everything up again... and also I don't want to hard reset because I can't get into Google Wallet to reset the security settings or whatever... Thanks!
If you aren't rooted i don't think you have much of a choice.
Maybe someone else knows how.

Hard reset won't wipe your data either. There is a seperate option for that.
In case you didn't know, to hard reset you hold the volume down button and the lock/unlock button for about 10 seconds. let got of the lock/unlock button and then push it again to make the phone go into the bootloader. ONLY SELECT FACTORY RESET. If you select clear storage you will wipe your personal data like pictures and music and such.
I would also recommend you re-install the RUU or take your phone to a Sprint S&R center to have them reflash the software. That way whatever bug is there is guaranteed to be gone.
Common problem
I just had this happen to my girls Evo LTE. She is rooted, but S-on still. She flicked on wifi and it went directly into a boot loop. She's out at the UCF football game now, had to call from a friends phone to let me know it happened. I'm happy to hear that a factory reset won't kill her pics and stuff, she'd be pissed.
Is there another fix?
I googled before coming here just to see if it was a random happening or a frequent problem... it is frequent. Happening to others as well. Seems to be linked to wifi as I noticed flipping wifi on was the cause in a few other cases as well.

Hi,
My placed my phone in a bowl of uncooked rice for more than 24 hours.
I charged my phone and it keeps rebooting after the beats screen. boorloader says locked on top.

Try booting to hboot by restarting the phone and holding power+vol- and selecting factory reset
I did but it keeps rebooting
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
try this...from the bootloader, go to recovery. when you get the red triangle, hold vol up then press power. this will take you to the stock recovery. you need to wipe the cache partition. this should get the phone to boot. if it doesnt, then a fdr is the only option left. these instructions are for non-rooted phones. rooted phones...reflash the rom

actually you have it backwards...factory reset will erase everything. thats why its in red. its kind of a warning. the clear storage option does not erase the phone storage just the internal storage.

You may be out of luck. It sounds like you dropped your phone in water since you mention in your first post that you put it in a bowl of rice for 24 hours. While that may help dry it out, the water damage or short circuit may already have occurred. Since you are having problems that only occurred after the water damage.

Motorola Photon 4g Please Help. RSD protocol

I have the motorola photon 4g and I've yet to find a thread that says exactly what my phone is doing.
My phone has been stopping at the motorola screen and saying RSD protocol startup, none of my buttons are stuck and I've tried to put it in flashboot and it just wont do it. I've tried holding the volume up and power button and holding the power button and volume down. I jsut don't know what else to do.

What did you try to get it into Fastboot mode?

You left out the part about dropping it in the toilet in this thread. It worked fine before that. So my guess its water damaged. You really dont need 2 threads for the same issue.

Not a "pos phone". You need to read stickies, read threads and become familiar with your phone before modifying it. If done so you would know that SBFing would not cause a bootloop , you obviously chose to RSD in the first place for a reason.
Now, for the spoonfeed:
Try to boot into recovery, if you can, wipe data and do a factory reset. If you can't access recovery, make sure you have the latest drivers and try with multiple computers.

[Q] Who can help unbrick a pre-release LGOG?

So I have an AT&T LG Optimus G (E970). However, I found out that it's pre-release hardware (yes, it says "nOt foR sale***" on the side of the phone, but it was in a case), and I've bricked it trying to root it the standard way (using LGNPST), and it now boot loops 3 times before displaying "Security Error" under the LG logo. I can't get it back into download mode, nor does a factory hard reset (the only mode I can get it into) work.
A bit of background info:
The original firmware was E97009j. It was unable to download the OTA JB update. I tried to install that stock update through LGNPST since the phone couldn't be seen through ADB. From there I planned on rooting and everything else. Yes, I should have never tried messing with pre-release hardware, but in theory, since it was a review unit, the hardware itself should've been identical to what is sold in stores. Also, and more importantly, I didn't realize it was pre-release until after I bricked it.
Luckily this isn't my daily phone, but I'd like to get it fixed...
Possible way to get back into download mode.
Start with phone unplugged, and when it gets stuck on security error hold power button for 10 seconds to force reboot.
Then at very instant it powers off, but before it powers on hold volume up + volume down + power and plug in USB.
If you are able to get into download flash the teenybin alt. with lgnpst.

So that partially got me fixed. I was able to finally get it into download mode after trying your method about 4 times, and I did the teenybin deal. The "regular" teenybin didn't fix it, though it allowed it into download mode the proper way without trying more than once. I then did the alt teenybin, and when it rebooted, it showed a Google logo (instead of LG) with an unlocked icon at the bottom of the screen for about a second before the screen went black. Now I can't get it to turn on at all, though it could just need to be charged. When I plug it in, it shows a white battery icon with a lightning bolt for about 4 seconds before turning back off. I'll let it sit on the charger undisturbed for an hour or so and see what I can do then. As it stands right now, it won't go back into download mode or factory hard reset mode.
Out of curiosity, since I've flashed teenybin, my bootloader should be unlocked and I should have a recovery I can flash zips from now, right? I shouldn't have to jump through any more hoops with LGNPST or anything?
EDIT:
Um, this phone will charge even in this state, right? The LED on the power button isn't lighting up, and I can only sometimes get it to show that battery icon...
YES!!!
I'm into recovery now! I'm going to flash CM10.1 and report back!
EDIT:
I'm up and running now, though WiFi isn't working, nor is my earpiece on the phone. Though, the earpiece was an issue before I borked everything, so I'm pretty sure that's a broken bit of hardware there.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Wifi works under the stock AT&T JB firmware. Not sure why it didn't work under CM10.1 (it couldn't initialize it), but I'm good now. Thanks!
It may have been a radio issue, ROM zips don't include them. Teenybin would not have changed radio either, so you would still have had ICS radio.

Haha, it wasn't you who bricked it; it was me. Really, I should've just done TeenyBin when I first got it into download mode through LGNPST instead of trying to install a stock ROM to root. It really was a backwards way for me to accomplish what I wanted. You'd think that since I've had like 10 Android devices, all rooted and modded, I'd know better. lol

Haha, it wasn't you who bricked it; it was me. Really, I should've just done TeenyBin when I first got it into download mode through LGNPST instead of trying to install a stock ROM to root. It really was a backwards way for me to accomplish what I wanted. You'd think that since I've had like 10 Android devices, all rooted and modded, I'd know better. lol

Phone Frozen after new update!!!

So I did the new AT&T update and now the phone is stuck on the HTC ONE screen and has been there for a good 45 minutes. Any suggestions?

Thanks to the AT&T update that killed my phone I had to get a refurbished one that is in worse physical condition than the first one I had...and I only had it since July 3rd...gaps on the top and bottom...slight dent/nick on the top portion of the phone where the aluminum meets the plastic and a tiny scratch on the camera glass...it isn't directly over the lens but that isn't the point...I'm calling AT&T tomorrow...this is bull****
You should. Give em hell.
Tell them off, after a minute they might just send you a new one for all the hassle.

Just got off the phone with AT&T and the lady that helped me was very nice and seemed to actually know what she was talking about. She was in the process of filing a claim for me and told me that she would give me a call back either later on today or at the same time tomorrow. So we will see what happens.
Just for future reference is there anything I could have done to fix the phone myself. Like just wipe it clean and start over? I tried a factory reset but it would still get stuck on the HTC ONE screen during bootup. Any ideas?
You probably could have gotten to bootloader either booted to or flashed a custom recovery then flashed a rom or just reinstalled the 1.26 RUU

Damn at this point I really wish I thought of that...hopefully I won't have to worry about it again...might be a blessing in disguise though because this one is picking up LTE better
