Alright, so I know what went wrong. I messed up, I know I did, so please try not to mention it.
I accidentally deleted my lib folder in the /system directory using root explorer. What I was trying to do is replace it with the one found in a different thread (as I was missing some files that I needed to receive the BELL OTA update)
So now the phone will not boot past the above mentioned logo (thread title)
I have tried going into android recovery and wiping and restoring all data but that did not help, my phone is not unlocked and I have never installed a different ROM.
What should I do?
I may be wrong, but if you are not unlocked, you may have to do a full SBF flash to get back up and running. If you were unlocked you could just flash a system.img via fastboot.
Alright, I will look into that, right now I am at school so if you could give me a link to a guide for the Bell Motorola Atrix I would appreciate it, if not I will search through the forums for it later.
Thanks for the help!
what did you make on your case.
I have the same problem.
Please help me
Hello. This is my first time actually visiting the Optimus One forum although I have had my phone for maybe 2 months. I was not going to root my phone, in case I need warranty, so I was using the stock rom, although it was a little slow.
So I thought MAYBE there is an update on LG website, so I went on there, and found out that I can update by connecting to the computer. So I did download all the files they required (at least I think I did), and I followed the instruction, and started updating. Here comes the first problem encountered: While the phone was n Emergency mode, during the updating was in process, it said Phone and PC has problem communicating or something like that. And there was a restart button. It said disconnect the phone, and remove battery and connect again, and then press restart. So I did. Then now after that the LG software update tool doesn't recognize the phone. It said connect it and press OK or something. I think this is the point where I bricked my phone. A NON rooted phone. So I don't even have a custom recovery to flash anything! I hate LG right now. They are so stupid. I don't know what happened..
I tried the method here:
http://androidforums.com/optimus-one-support-troubleshooting/237642-bricked-lg-optimus-one-help.html
But I couldn't download the right KDZ firmware for my phone, that is available in the link in that link above. I'm in Canada and my phone is from Koodo and the model name is P500H.
So I got a random KDZ file that's for P500 from internet, but the in the KDZ_FW_UPD emulator, that's in the link above, it says my phone is NOT detected! I reconnect the phone and restarted the software so many times. I think they want me to connect the phone while it's Turned ON, and press the "Connect to USB" button. I'm not sure though.
***PLEASE*** Help me! I really need to unbrick this..
Sorry for the long post. And Thank you!
to flash custom recovery follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318750

Thank you SO much for your reply. I was searching for HOURS, and Finally found out how to make the KDZ update tool recognize my device. A LOT of people can't get it to work, but I saw someone in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1015332&page=4
that you need to remove sim card and battery. So I did, and restarted the update, and YES! It worked! I was on Foryo, but I got Gingerbread Rom from
this forum http://mobilesyrup.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21446&page=2
And I'm actually on GB now!
OMG, I have so much homework, but have been doing this for the WHOLE day! Wow..
Thank you so much for your help anyway!
Oh thanks

Can you help me to know how to create nvflash rom from stock kdz rom for LG su880? I have one dead device and need unbrick it via APX mode. But i can't find a nvflash rom for it. Please help me with you kind. Thanks!
Check this site. Use google translate.

same problem
Good day to all dev and to the community,
first of, i know this is not the right thread to post but im kinda desperate now.
i purchase a phone which is optimus ex su880 (nearest family is su660)
i tried updating using the LG updater but unfortunately i bricked my phone.
right now, i can no longer boot to S/w / normal mode and my only solution is to flash it via NVflash.
but my problem is, because of the lack of support for this phone. i cant find any image or .bat file to re install the ICS rom back.
now, my question is if we can create a .bat file/image from a Stock KDZ rom?
i can boot to APX but i have no firmware to flash.
your exeperties is highly appreciated.
i already spent 3 days looking for an answer but to no avail...hope you can enlighten me.
as long as your phone can enter recovery mode, you may 'nvflash' CWM recovery directly and then flash CM rom. this would unbrick your phone. here is the post but written in Chinese

Instructions :
Extract The .rar
Open The Setup File And Install LG Flashtool
Right Click On The Shortcut Created On Your Desktop And Open File Location.
Copy The .dll Files From The DLL Folder To The Previously Opened Location And Replace The .dll In Flash Tool Folder If Any.
Open The Flashtool,Select The .dll Then The .tot/.bin File And You Are Ready To Flash The Firmware,Connect The Phone In Download Mode When Asked.
Note :
I Don't Know Whether It Works For N4 Converted Devices.I Had Successfully Flashed Stock .20 .bin File With It.But I Suggest To Use This Only When LGNPST Does Not Work/Fails To Flash The FW As For Me.Please Don't Perform Unwanted Experiments With Your Device Or It Will Result In A Hard Brick.
This Guide Was Originally Created By madmack @ Optimus G Pro Section So Thanks To Him.
I was Searching For The .dll File For Our Device And Found It So Decided To Create A Thread.And Those Who Are Thinking That The Required .dll Is The Same That We Use For LGNPST,NO,This Is A Different .dll
It Did Not Ask For Unlock Code When I Flashed The Stock JB FW.But As Posted By madmack there is A Possibility That It Can Ask For Your Unlock Code.So Proceed With Caution.
Again This Is A Alternate To LGNPST And Only I Have Successfully Flashed The Stock FW.It Is Recommended That Unless It Is Tested By 4-5 Experienced Users,Its A No Go For Noobs/New Users.
And Be Advised That This Process Will Wipe Your Internal Storage.
Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing.
Edit: There are many more things to do in his (madmack) thread... Did u follow them all? Or for us we do not need all those steps? Let us know before someone bricks.. I use LGNPST but if anyone tries this.. at least they have a better understanding. thanks again for sharing.
just a heads up.. TeenyBin does not work in LG Flash. There are extra CRC checks which I haven't been able to bypass yet. This may change in the future.
also, not sure if this version of LG Flash is same as the newer one I use but I have to set the COM port to 40+ for LG flash to see my device.. altho maybe I'm missing something. I have to go into windows device manager and manually change the COM port used for the phone ( its in properties ).
LG Flash is no better or worse than LGNPST in my opinion. On the plus side.. there's no dll to register... and options are good

Download link is missing.
I've try to found the download link for the Lg Flash tool on this page, but i haven't. Can you fix it or explain? Thanks anyway.
Which .TOT and .DLL files will you be providing? I need the .DLL and .TOT file for, of course, the AT&T Optimus G E-970 US version! I flashed my wifes phone cause it boot looped and the .TOT used was SUPPOSED to be this file but it is the Korean FW. Now my wifes phone will not update via OTA because it changed her IMEI number. I need to get her phone back to stock 4.1.2 US VERSION!

Here is the file you need to get her phone back to STOCK U.S: http://downloads.codefi.re/g33k3r/LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013.zip I'm not sure on the DLL file, I use LGNPST so not sure if they are the same but attached it also just incase you can use it.. stock firmware file above is a .tot file so if you need to you can just change it to .bin if you need to.
Thank you blake but no. That is the fw file that turned her phone Korean. So may people are under the impression this is the stock US fw but it isn't. I even had another person here check their phone and his too in fact says "Lg Electronics Korea".

Where do you go check to see if its U.S or Korean?
All settings--> about phone -->phone Identity.
It's under settings-->about phone-->phone identity.
I had another person tell me that's normal because it's only the "manufacturer" info. Which im told this phone is manufactured in Korea. I don't know. All I do know is everyone is saying this is the stock fw for this phone but my wifes phone has changed. The start up screen is different and so is the shut down screen. Example, when her phone would shut down, she would get the AT&T logo and sound. After flashing this file she gets the blue circle and no sound. I do know that 4.1.2 is different depending on the region the phone is in. I don't know anything else that would explain this. Maybe this FW file WAS a different region but it was stripped out and converted somehow?

After a little checking I found out the same thing, It was normal as it was the place of manufacturer. I'm not sure what the problem might be but as far as I know that's the stock firmware for the phone.. You might try this one out http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22901594685177912 you just boot into recovery do the normal wipes and flash through recovery, its supposed to be stock except for being rooted and as far as I know those are the only two stock files floating around for the phone...
Thanks Blake. Can you confirm for me that this phone will NOT get OTA updates if it's changed in any way, including rooting? It's what I was told by someone else. If that's the case then I guess there really is nothing wrong with the phone except those weird unexplained small changes.
I've got all the correct files download and I made it so far as to try to actually flash the phone, but it fails and gives me a wrong model number message because it's detecting my phone as a E960 (it's an E970). Any ideas? I had installed the latest CM11 ROM over some encrypted data and now I'm locked out (old encryption PIN doesn't work) and I can't restore it to stock.
can someone help me with a .tot or .bin stock for lg l70 d320n? cuz i"ve looked for it everywhere but couldn"t find anything
need help bad.
i got this phone from a friend and it originally had cm11 on it. the phone in question is the lg e970. i wanted to get back to stock. so i downloaded the correct firmware and added it to my external sd card. using twrp before i proceeded to wipe the phone via twrp. when it was finished i restarted the phone into twrp and went to install the stock firmware and i could not find my exsd card. twrp does not recognize it at all. so now im stuck with a phone with no os on it. i can ge into twrp and download mode, and when i just boot the phone it goes to lg logo and stays there. i need help in trying to figure out how to get stock firmware back on phone. i am used to samsung phones and odin. so im a noob when it comes to lg. i am very tech savy when it comes to computers. plzzzzzz any help would be great!!!!!!!! and appreciated
I can not add .tot file in LG flash tool
I have unrooted my lg g3 before on another computer. But i can't add the .tot file with my new computer. I am doing everything the same.
Does anyone have any ideas?
My phone was soft-bricked but I managed to install Cyanogenmod on it, which is fine, but I can't do a network unlock and looking around it seems I really need the stock Gingerbread 2.3.6 ROM installed.
I found a kdz file but 1) I have no idea if it's good 2) All the tools I could find to flash a kdz image require Windows, and an XP VM doesn't see my phone on USB for some reason.
I came across this thread and would like to know what peoples' success rates are:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2256583&nocache=1
One guy posted that it soft-bricked him.
Alternatives are at the moment hope that someone can link/make me a stock backup made with clockwordmod or see if I can get a cheap one on ebay and grab the image from that.
Unless you guys got some other ideas?
Thanks for any info
