I've been trying to flash my p768 device since the update for JB p768 came out.
So I started flashing the KDZ file, followed all the necessary steps and finally when the process is at 17 percent, flashing stopped saying there is a problem between connection of pc and phone. So i did the workoaround, remove the usb cable and wait for at least 10 secs and reconnect, then waited for all the drivers to install. After restarting the whole process it got stack still at 17 percent. Now I cannot get out of Software update mode even if I remove the battery and start the device again. I know I made a newbie mistake..:crying:
Any help is appreciated, thanks a lot.
Hello,
If you were on ICS, you can use this method to unbreak your device :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344
If you were on JB, the phone won't be recognized on "S/W Update" screen by the offline method. You must use the online method :
- Remove the lines you put in your "hosts" file ("127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com" and "127.0.0.1 csmgdl.lgmobile.com") then reboot your computer
- Connect your phone (on the "S/W Update" mode)
- Directly start "B2CAppSetup.exe" : it should detect your phone
- Click on "Customer Support" then "Recovery Phone" (see screenshot on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217710)
- Wait and pray... It can be long because it downloads the last KDZ file from official LG servers
Good luck
EDIT : Important detail : while your phone is in "S/W Upgrade" mode, put back your battery (not empty) inside your phone or else your phone will probably stop during the recovery process.

Ok, basically I wanted to downgrade to froyo in order to reflash mikos rom to have data and gsm, i downgraded with KDZ, all went great, but when i tried to boot it just blocked at boot animation i mean it took forever (Well i waited ~10 minutes twice or 3 times) and I said, hm okay i will try to use kdz again maybe it will work, when i tried to use again KDZ to update the rom (still the same rom tho) i got an error and when i reboot the phone it goes directly to emergency mode. If i try to use KDZ updater it says that the phone is not found, if i try to use lg software update agent (i think thats the name of the software) it also can't found the phone.
I installed many lg drivers from many sources but when i installed lg drivers from lg update agent thingy it bugged my pc internet connection(is working now) and now im writting from fedora (linux). If i try here to use trough wine KDZ still no luck, maybe i will try with my 2nd PC with windows xp to do it but i donno if it will work i guess not. (tried earlier, don't ask )
So is there any way that i can bring my phone back to life?
Thanks in advance
later edit: yes i disabled modem driver, also tried with it on, still no luck
later later edit: LG software update see my phone but at "analysis" it says "please disconnect he cable from your cell phone in order and remove and connect the batter. power on your cellphone and press the restart button to resume update" i did that and after i press "the resume button" it loads and say that again...
The error from KDZ:
[R&D Test Tools Log File]
19:50:07 : Launching SW update
19:50:07 : Unpacking KDZ
19:50:33 : KDZ file extraced

Remove your battery, push it back in.
Do a hardware reset -> home + volup + power.
Then try KDZing again.
Remember, after KDZing do a hardware reset again after the process is done.
Sometimes reinstalling the USB drivers does the trick.
Also, some users reported that on 'shaking' [yeah it sounds weird but its true] your phone, it gets recognised by the PC.
This is a last resort. Simply because it takes too much time and effort and because it might not work at all.
If you have tried to flash the Optimus/p500 kdz to your Thrive/p506 phone in hopes of factory resetting or getting out of emergency mode you will be stuck in a mode where the phone only boots to emergency mode immediately. (You don't get the LG boot screen.) This is because the kdz flash fails when attempting to write the optimus base band to your phone corrupting the base band. (or so I've figured out. If someone knows the real reason please correct me.)
To re-flash your base band you need: (I can't post links yet. I'll go post around in some thread now.)
- LGMDP mediafire.com/?3bi3247slaoitub
- Stock Files or P506 Stock Files with AmonRa Recovery (only AmonRa recovery mediafire.com/?0yyxt2vv7zw2pvy)
- LG United Drivers
- LG Mobile Support tool
- Virtual Box with Windows XP (Tested with my computer)
What?! Virtual box with Windows XP? This is the reason why this guide is a last resort. Unless anyone else knows how to cause LGMDP to timeout at "Version Checking" when selecting your com port you wont need this. LGMDP needs to time out at "Version Checking" so you can identify your phone as a p500 or p505 allowing you to flash the stock files to your phone. (I've heard/read that the p506 and p500 have the same board and even the same partition layout.) Using Virtual box lags the OS and the serial port causing LGMDP to time out.
~ WARNING!!! ~I am not responsible for any further bricking of your device/s and the time you have lost if this method doesn't work. This method is not 100% likely to work. I'm not entirely sure if this is a US base band either. If your network doesn't work after flashing then that's a downside. (Mine doesn't get signal or detect my sim card. Perhaps someone with a working Thrive base band could somehow dump theirs and share it with others)
- Get Virtual box running with Windows XP (No guide for this, look one up yourself) and make sure to install the VirtualBox Extension Pack.
- On your normal OS download LGMDP and the stock files to a USB drive. (or download them to the Virtual OS)
- Take the battery and charger out of your phone, press and hold the power button for 3 seconds and place the battery back into the phone. Next hold Back+VolUp+Power until Emergency mode appears. (I know that it automatically goes into Emergency mode, but it doesn't detect the phone when it auto boots to it.)
- Install the LG United Drivers and the LG Support tool to the Virtual OS.
- Connect your phone and flash drive to the Virtual OS.
Picture goes Here
- Browse to LGMDP and execute the program. Press "Select Port" and choose the only one available. Then press connect,
- If LGMDP does not time out at "Version Checking" and nothing happens for a while, close LGMDP and repeat the last step.
- If you do succeed select p500 or p505 as the model.
Picture goes Here
- ATTEMPT TO DO AN NV BACKUP. Without your nv you wont get signal. or so I've read
- Click Browse for "Image Folder" and browse for your p506 files folder.
- Once selected all of the parts should be checked. Un-check all EXCEPT the following:
- Partition Table
- QCSBL Header
- QCSBL
- OEMSBL Header
- OEMSBL
- AMSS Modem Image Header
- AMSS Modem Image
- RECOVERY Image
(If you would like to do a factory reset, feel free to leave them all checked.)
Picture goes Here
- Click "Start" and it will immediately start flashing your phone.
- ATTENTION! LGMDP will most likely freeze when flashing your phone. If it were to freeze simply do a battery pull (full shutdown) and repeat the process. (It takes time, but it won't corrupt your phone. Probably.)
- The phone should automatically reboot when it's done. Do a battery pull and boot into recovery Home+VolUp+Power (If you used AmonRa Recovery) and flash any rom.
Has anyone successfully tried this?
I too have corrupted the base band on my lg p506 and am waiting to attempt this unbricking guide.
This guide works great! Thanks for writing it up!
Thanks XDleader555, but didn't work on mine.
However I tried this few simple steps and it worked for me, so anyone with a similar problem may try this one.
REMEMBER!!!! this is also a last resort, Do this if you have no other option and I will not be responsible for further bricking of your device.
1. Download the flashing tool:
LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix
2.Download the custom lg thrive kdz firmware
custom_lg_Thrive from 4shared (search exact key word "custom_lg_Thrive" )
3.connect the device via USB
4. open KDZ_FW_UPD.exe, set Phonemode to diag and type to 3GQCT
5. select the kdz file you downloaded
6. click the launch software update button
7. sit back and wait, it takes some time

Three days ago, I found it again and I tried to revive it again and after trying many other tutorials, this is the only one that has worked so far.
I've been trying to flash my p768 for JB V20A VIETNAM. i used V20A TELCEL, MEXICO Before this flashing.

The LG Update Tool can install latest drivers for you: did you properly install them ? If your phone can start in "S/W Update" mode, the online unbricking method should work, that's why I think you have a driver issue. Did you also try on another computer with another Windows version ? (the most "driver friendly" version would be a Windows XP at least on SP2).

you need to install fastboot drivers twice, once before you run the omap4fastboot and again after running it when you see that mirrored fastboot text
Hey folks,
its bricked due to FOTA (I think it stands for: firmware over the air) update. This means the phone downloads a firmware update without computer connection or further PC-Software. Alas it didn't work.
Situation:
Phone starts, displays LG Logo and after that an 'updating firmware' screen for about 1 sec before rebooting and doing it all over again.
What I tried to solve this:
set up a new Win 7 32 bit machine to try to unbrick it. (drivers didn't work correctly on 64 bit) at least the MCCI driver update didn't)
connected the phone with the PC in Emergency Mode (holding VOL_UP + VOL_DOWN + PWR while USB is connected)
downloaded B2CApp (LGSupport Tool) and installed the device drivers for Emergency mode.
disabled the Android(Modem) dirver
downloaded V10D_00.kdz from LG home page
using the phones IMEI and this link:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=IMEI_NUMBER_GOES_HERE
This gave me this link
http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/swdata/WDLSW/LGE720/ADEUBK/V10d_00/V10D_00.kdz
I'm German so this seems all right, but I'm no expert
installed msxml
ran KDZ_FW_UPD_EN and tried CDMA in CS_EMERGENCY Mode
A bunch of magic happend until the phone restarts during the process and is right back where we started, if I put it back to Emergency Mode while KDZ_FW_UPD_EN is still running the process finishes, but to no avail.
The log of this try is attached.
Where I am stuck now:
phone:
runs in Emergency Mode
is recognized by KDZ_FW_UPD_EN as well es LG Support Tool
Flashing via KDZ_FW_UPD_EN finishes
Flashing yields no result.
What else did I try
download V10C_00.kdz, as well as V10A_00.kdz from LG site and tried those with same result as with V10D_00.kdz
tried 3GQCT Type instead of CDMA
Wild guesses by me:
I need a different KDZ_FW_UPD_EN version, maybe different dll. I got it from here somewhre in a LG P500 related topic.
I messed up the driver install or need a different driver
LG hates me personally and planted this whole brick specifically to get to me.
The device really is permanently bricked, so I did all I could and there is nothing more to do? That would be sad, I hope I'm wrong here.
Additional Info:
The phone is not rooted and has never before been flashed. It ran with the same stock firmware since it was unwrapped.
The phone was not interrupted by power-loss during FOTA update.
The [read phone information] tool from KDZ_FW_UDP_EN crashes every time, maybe this tells somebody where things go wrong
Any help is appreciated. Ask for more info, if you need it.
Update - What else did I try:
I got the LG Support Tool to flash the Emergency Recovery all by itself runs till 99% --> reboots --> still stuck in same ol' bootloop
reentering Emergency Mode from the bootloop makes the Emergency Recovery finish with 100%, no error, but still bricked.

So I recently wanted to load a custom rom on my p769.
Unfortunately, I tried to flash a rom without actually having the bootloader unlocked (thought i did?)
Now i'm forever stuck at the "LG Security Error" screen.
I can't seem to do anything else! :'(
The only other mode I can boot into is S/W update screen (holding volume up and plugging in usb cable).
I tried to get to another mode I read about (vol up + vol down then plug usb cable for "download" mode, to no avail)
Anyway, once I do get it into sw update mode, I can't seem to do anything either way, when i try to list adb devices, none are listed, when i try to use lg mobile tool, it never connects, when i try to use kdz offline update tool, it doesn't see the phone, it just keeps trying to connect, the log freaks out at "_IsConnectedPhone Call", and just keeps trying to "connect" to phone but can't
Am I totally screwed here?
What can I do? Any help appreciated!

You're on JB, right? KDZ offline flash tool cannot detect phone in JB. you have to flash ICS x-loader/u-boot then that tool can detect your phone. please visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292828
For LG mobile support tool problem, it need to download rom from LG server. Have you remove/comment 1-2 line that you add to hosts file? You said it never connect that mean it don't see your phone?

You're on JB, right? KDZ offline flash tool cannot detect phone in JB. you have to flash ICS x-loader/u-boot then that tool can detect your phone. please visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292828

I've tried this as well, but I don't know if i'm doing it correctly
I installed the 'drivers' it needs (following the readme file) when it shows the "unknown/other" device (the part where you have to catch it in device manager).
After this, I run the start.bat, enter 5 and hit enter, i unplug my phone and hit any key, then i plug it in as it says and it does it's thing, then i wait for 4 seconds when it begins to say "waiting for device", i put my battery in and it just stays there, waiting for device
Can you help me figure this out? Am I doing something wrong?

i think i'm making some progress, thanks for helping so far!
anyway, i'm able to get fastboot on my phone (i think?), the screen on the phone shows the flipped LG logo and at the top right it says 2.0 fastboot (flipped of course)
but, what am i supposed to do here?
i see the 2 omap devices listed on my device manager
whenever i try to run the kdz offline flash tool (if i'm using the right one), it still doesn't detect the phone as connected, doesn't even try, just errors and tells me to connect to usb port and restart or exit
what am i supposed to do once i'm in fastboot recovery for my phone?
should i comment out the 2 listings i added to the hosts file? should i NOT be running shttps app? which kdz offline flash tool should i be using? (currently trying: UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe)

You should run start.bat and select flash ICS u-boot/x-loader for P769
When it finish, reboot you phone to S/W update mode and try to use UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe to flash your P769 kdz again to restore your phone.
Maybe I miss something about P769 model, please search in FAQ forum many people have this issue, and most of them have fixed it.
