You can Hard reset with press vol-, home and power at time
or put on the USB cab then press vol+ and power button to start S/W Update , in the Computer using KDZ update to reinstall SoftWare for LG L9
I was thinking about trying to root the phone but seems like I might mess it up. A lot of steps.

You've not even tried and your phone is bootlooped? How do you it will clear booting after a hard reset, have you tried? Does it bootloop again once youve restored your apps?
No I haven't done anything to the phone conceive gotten it back in January. I am running jellybean tho. For two straight days if I restarted my phone after the hard 're s st it would stick either on the t-mobile 4g screen or load all the way up and the screen would switch from" android is updating" "loading apps" to my home screen. But phone would finish. I Let it sit for two hours like that. And nothing happened so I just hard reset it and it has worked fine since then. And I have restarted it since then. I was thinking it was my dad's cheap car charger doing it?..

You will have to be more specific than this...
Have you tried wiping Cache Partition and/or Dalvik Cache
When i boot the phone it never fully boots, when it finally gets to my lock screen the android system does not load. I can't do anything at all. I havent tried to root or anything. it just started and there was no reason why
the phone has finally booted to where my homepage would be but its a black screen that says android system on it and thats all. i can get to no apps or anything,
Im going too take a wild guess and say you either tried too install cwm without being rooted or u did not properly unlock your bootloadeR. Which is the case? Because this would not just happen did u read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423

You might have to use rsd lite to flash a stock rom. If you look thru the posts in the dev section you will find what your looking for. I believe the post is labeled but don't quote me, how to root after sbf flash. I know it's something like that.
Read up on using rsd lite it's very easy once you read about it.
Best of luck to you.
If I can be of any further help feel free to pm me and I'll do my very best.

i can honestly say that i did not try to install anything on it. the phone was running a little slow as i was installing an app so i turned it off after it was done downloading and when i went to start it back up this happened. i was not trying to root or anything

Sounds like you should factory reset.
Turn off phone
Hold volume down and press power
Continue holding volume down until it says fastboot in upper left corner
Release volume down
Press volume down until you get android recovery in upper left corner
Press volume up
Find factory reset option ( not sure where since I don't have factory recovery anymore)

ok so i unlocked the bootloader and it rebooted the phone. well after reboot it pulled up the motoblur setup screen. I was confused so i skipped it then went to look at my apps and apparently my phone has reseted itself. I also dont have superuser so no root... i tried to get back into fastboot to root and the screen only says unlocked at the m logo. it doesnt let me select any options. I dont know what happened. Can any one help me at least figure this out? And can i reroot???
Did you try pressing the power and the volume down button at the same time on boot?

Rerooting shouldnt be a problem. Fyi the phone resets itself upon unlocking the bootloader... try oneclick or whatnot for rooting it again.

The device resetting itself is OK. Just restore your apps with Titanium Backup.
No superuser does not mean no root, you just need to reinstall.
ok so, sometime last week i grabbed my phone after my girlfriend was on it. (common) unlocked it, and the screen froze. i didnt think anything of it. mostly bc it has never happened. so i took the battery out and tried to turn it back on... well it stays on the LG LOGO for about 5-10 minutes then goes to a white screen and it says "ENCRYPTING" with a bar below it and below that it says "reset phone" it does nothing. i have had it on the charger trying to figure out what is wrong, nothing works, no soft reset, no hard reset. nothing. and i cant find any information on this anywhere.?!?!?!? am i the only one that this is happening to??? ATTENTION THE PHONE IS STOCK!

You have to flash the stock ROM again. Use the Lelus offline flash method and you should bee fine.

Ok, where to begin. so i rooted my phone fine. i was trying to attempt to apply some hacks to swap external sdcard with internal but everything said i have to change my bootloader. rooted fine with some Chinese program. i tried rom toolkit for the bootloader unlocker. reboots, but nothing. so i found an APK file that you run on the phone itself, that you hit an unlock button and it reboots. it said it supported my model etc. but now when i turn it on it goes past the MetroPCS screen into a white screen with "Encrypting" and a button saying "Reset Phone". then an error pops up that says "com.android.phone has stopped" then it sits there forever.
Well, i did figure out that if you let the battery die down a warning message pops up like normal warning of low battery. it gives options to hit OK or Battery Use. if i hit battery use it takes me into the settings menu. i can change anything from there. i tried a factory reset from there and nothing. i tried hard reset [buttons] and nothing. i tried flashing the 10B_00.kdz using AIO Toolkit and it fails saying my phone isn't connected. so oi go back into settings and enable debug etc etc, reboot and then try....same failure. doesnt recognize. i uninstalled and reinstalled pc suite, LGUnited mobile drivers......nothing nothing nothing. i have seen others with same issue and they end up recovering....but not me. am i supposed to flash 10B kdz? that's what my settings say i have. LGMSP76910b or something like that. all firmware sites the p769 model is TMOBILE....can i try flashing a tmobile kdz for my phone and it NOT mess up my metro service? i have tried the update tool....nothing.
My wife has been threatening to kill me so please help. i can only say "Woman! get your ass back in the kitchen and make me a sammich!" a few more times before she realizes all she has to do is whop me over the head with a pan....or broom.....or my broken LG Optimus.....help.

You performed the online restore method.
In order to get the offline flash to work, you need to use the unofficial fastboot and restore an ice cream (p769) x-loader & u-boot. Then perform the offline flash.
There is a problem with jellybeans x & u, and performing the s/w upgrade starting from a cold boot.
The only way for the offline flash flash to work and still be on a jellybean (x-loader & u-boot) the phone must be operating properly and turned on normally (plus it needs to be in the lg software mode).
Finding this information is not easy, because the main sticky threads are out dated.
I've posted this information so many times. I'm like a broken record.

Remove any changes to your windows host file (if you don't know what I'm talking about disregard)
Setup the program put your phone in s/w mode (hold vol + then enter the USB cable into your computer). Enter the information and wait a really long time.
Please don't do anything else while performing the restore. Also make sure your computer doesn't go to sleep during the whole process.

So I'm having the same issues as OP and this is apparently the only thread on the internet where anyone is experiencing this issue. MetroPCS 769 running JB. The phone POSTs and gets to the metroPCS carrier screen but goes to a white screen that just says "encrypting" with a blank progress bar, and that one app crashing. Every other reboot I get the Android recovery screen with the robot and a progress bar, and it reboots back to the "Encryping" screen. I can't even force the phone into a recovery or factory reset mode.
When I run the LG software updater, it says the software on my phone is up to date. There's a menu item for "Download recovery" which detects my phone, and acts like it's downloading something but never finishes. Any idea on how to proceed from here?

Hi, really in the need for some help and advice. I recently tried to update from cyanogenmod 10.2 to 11 however on flashing a message came up saying I had to repair my recovery. After clicking yes it got stuck into a recovery loop. So I tried flashing a new recovery using Odin since I couldn't transfer anything. However that seemed to have made it worse, Its now stuck on the S3 logo screen. Been through a couple attempts to repair however everytime I attempt to flash it just gets stuck, leaving it for half an hour to an hour i remove it. I'm pretty lost for what to do, can anyone help?
Also, to add more problems my power button sticks. I dont know if thats whats haulting the flashing?
Thanks!

Its soft brick. Try this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2323847

But fix your power button first, interrupted flash can result in hard brick.
I cant use this fix, I cant access my phone to put anything on the SD and it seems like I am unable to flash anything with Odin. I'll try and break it down to fix the sticky power button but I'm clueless to what to try now?
This problem is most probably caused by the power button being stuck thus restarting your phone. Follow wat boomboomer said and fix your power button and see if it solves the problem.

Yes I have opened it up and fixed that. However I need some other way of resetting my binary counter since I cant access my phone. Any way through Odin?
No, there is no other way. Fix the boot loop first by flashing a full stock room in Odin. Factory reset afterward in recovery.
