basically i flashed a rom and this rom ws working fine until it started to reboot everytime i chargd the phone then it would boot loop for like 30min and finaly go in to the rom.. ive tried to access the recovery to switch roms but it just bootloops.. onlything i can go is to bootloader.. i was looking for a stock rooted
P0g5?? file to flash in bootloader but all i can find is mr2 and its in multiupload which is not working for me.. can anyone please give me a working link or answer... and the last option i would hate to do is completely restore to stock and root allover again.. i want to restore to stock rooted/s-off.. not stock rooted/s-on.. please help anyone....
Can u download a new recovery, rename, then flash in hboot possibly?

I had an issue kinda similar like this and ended up having to flash the RUU through the bootloader. It is the stock firmware 605.19, and I had to reroot. It's a pain I know but it works

I to had to this at one point and it does work. I would first try to flash cwm in fastboot though. Sometimes that works.

My friend's phone tried to pull an OTA while he had CWM recovery installed, and it started boot looping. Had to download the stock recovery, name is PG05IMG.zip in the root of the SDCard, and force the phone to boot to the bootloader and install it. Once it did, the phone started up, rebooted itself, and installed the OTA fine. Sounds like yours may be trying to do something similar?
If so rooted phones need caches cleared for the ota to work.

From my understanding, Rooted can still take OTA, but you have to have stock recovery to do it (as I witnessed earlier). You will lose root, and will have to re-flash recovery to TWRP, CWMR, or whatever your normal choice is, and then re-apply the su.zip, but otherwise easy as pie.

Do you by chance have a working link to the stock recovery? I have been trying to find one without success.

Stock recovery PG05IMG.zip http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/PG05IMG-Stock-Recovery.zip
Hello, first of all I would like to thank everyone who has posted in this thread to try and help out. I just started having a very similar problem- I'm rooted and running stock, but apparently my phone accepted an OTA and I'm stuck in a bootloop as well.
I got into CWM recovery and downloaded the stock recovery PG05IMG.zip, but it won't install. It just aborts every time I try to install it. I'm a noob at this stuff and not very good at dealing with these sorts of things and I've been having a panic attack for the past hour, so if anyone could help me as soon as possible I would really appreciate it.
I'm really scared of making things worse than they already are. I just want a working phone.

The zip won't work in CWM because it's not designed for use with CWM. It's designed for use in Fastboot. Should be on the root of your sd card. From off, if I'm correct (like this with other HTC devices), hold volume down and power to boot into fastboot. This will allow it to flash the stock recovery.

Right. I also have a recovery zip that installs the stock recovery if anyone wants it?
It can be found here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/OTARestoreAndRecovery.zip
(warning: I have tested it and it works but it did cause me a bootloop, and im assuming this is becuase im on a different rom - - - so not responsible for any damages)

I have read pages and pages of solutions but none worked for me, there was always a problem so I decided to post it here.
My Transformer Prime is bricked. I was on build 9.x.x.28, unlocked and rooted. Had recovery on and installed cyanogenmod 9 rc1. But then the cgm9 got stuck on the boot screen for like 6h so I decided to wipe the device because I thought (stupid) that I would be able to just boot ICS after. Now I am stuck in the eee pad screen or I can go to the screen with the usb logo and wipe data... I just did something that removed ClockWork Recovery and the android logo on the screen with the usb and wipe data...
When I still had CWR, I played around with it and I think I deleted everything in the internal memory... just fyi... if any other info is needed feel free to ask.
Any help appreciated!

whats about trying to flash a bootimage via odin?
Thanks, I will try it tonight. My main problem is that I don't have the android icon when I get to the screen with fast boot and wipe data. I wasn't able to find anyone thread with that problem so I don't know what that means. When I push clockwork recovery with fastboot it says ok in fastboot on my computer and the blue bar on my prime is full but then when I reboot the tablet, and I try to get to recovery it wouldn't give me the option and instead goes straight to the fastboot menu.
Could you give me any instructions how to do it with odin and what files I need?
Thank you
BestBuy rocks
Thanks guys but I just went to BestBuy and they told me I can pickup a replacement at another store tomorrow morning. The only question they asked me was what is wrong with it and I said it wouldn't boot. I don't know if that's normal practice or I'm just lucky that the guy didn't care or know that I voided my warranty...
My thunderbolt got stuck in boot loop about a week later after flashing Liquid ICS MR3V1. If I attempt to reboot the phone numerous times it will eventually boot up and work fine. The phone will not allow me to get into recovery - it will just go into boot loop once recovery is selected. I did manage to get the phone to go into recovery one time and I wiped everything and installed an infected eternity rom that I have been running for a long time without any issues. I thought I was okay once I flashed this rom but when I restarted the phone it went into the boot loop sequence again. Currently after 15+ attempts at starting the phone I got it to boot up without the SD card. I rooted my thunderbolt through revolutionary...if it matters?
From reading other threads it appears I need to install an RUU? Can I just install a RUU that will not un root my phone or do I need to change my modded Hboot, go back to s on and unroot? I flashed roms numerous times without issues and I always wipe multiple times and I am not sure what happened here. Unfortunately I do not have any backups to revert back to -- since I read flashing an RUU without the proper steps can brick my phone I wanted to seek advice to make sure I do it properly.
ys RUU can help you . just my own thought.
good luck to you :laugh:

Sounds like something is just wrong with you recovery. Try flashing another recovery. Also, IF you're using the boot manager app, it may be acting up. If the boot manager app is on your phone, I'd recommend removing it.

Do you mean try re installing cwm? I currently can't get into cwm because it goes into the boot loop sequence. I will try this later tonight and see if it helps. I do not have a boot manager app, I believe when I rooted through revolutionary it modifies hboot? (I have been rooted for over a year now withoutproblems)

No, boot manager is just an application from the play store.
Yes, try downloading cwm recovery again.

Update - I reinstalled CWM and got the phone into recovery, and did a reset, wiped everything and got stuck in boot loop. I eventually got the phone to boot up and I deleted a couple roms, etc in my download folder. After this was done I power cycled the phone twice without any issues.
After flashing nocturnal Rom and installing apps i experienced a slight overheating and i turned off my phone. I turned it back on and I was unable to access the Rom, recovery, or boot loader. I flashed stock with LGPNST and i re-rooted and unlocked the bootloader. I had the same problem upon rebooting. SO...I can flash through LGPNST stock and root but every time i try the boot loader unlock and reboot my phone has the original problems . I've tried the process a few times with the same results.please help.

It may be helpful to someone else, if you were to explain how you fixed it.
Yes, it would indeed be quite helpful if you could elaborate... because this just happened to me and I'm stumped...
I followed the same exact procedure I've used other times without error...
Except that now, after LGNPST, then root, then freegee... go to restart the phone and it hangs... won't boot up. What gives?
I repeated the process and did a factory reset after LGNPST back to stock, since I noticed (oddly enough) that all my apps were still there after LGNPST (full, to 100%)...
Still no luck...
EDIT-- Can't for the life of me figure this effing thing out. LGNPSTed I don't know how many times... with factory reset, without... I've tried fully relocking and unrooting the device... both through the FreeGee app *and* manually through adb... no error mssgs, double-checked... everything followed to the letter. There's only one constant each time: Once I've re-unlocked the bootloader (either with the app or through adb)... the phone is basically softbricked... once I turn the power off, it is A) not possible to boot into the stock rom, B) not possible to access fastboot menu, and C) not possible to boot into recovery. The only thing it *is* possible to do is get into download mode... and from there I'd just have to LGNPST again, but what's the point, because once I've done that and tried to unlock again, I already know what's coming. Never been this frustrated with a phone before, any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT 2-- No luck. LGNPSTed to stock once more, and factory reset, because yet again, all my apps were still intact... idk. Anyways, decided to do some hunting around with adb, and "adb reboot recovery" produced an error screen... the android lying on his back with case open... am I to assume this means there is a problem with my recovery partition that could be causing my difficulties... or would one expect to see this screen when trying to access recovery on the stock phone?

Honestly I don't know how it was resolved. I lgpnsted and rooted and unlocked the bootloader like 5 times.I got into recovery a few times but then got the same problem two more times. The last time I got into recovery I managed to flash a custom kernel and everything was fine from then on. I just don't understand how this problem is caused or even how it is truly fixed.

I had access to stock and I could root it. One thing that bothers me is that when I flash with lgpnst my data isn't erased and I feel like there may be a problem there of whether lgpnst is even taking our phones back to stock completely

There have been a small number of phones that will not unlock with standard freegee. They can be unlocked but it is riskier, you would need to talk to Shelnutt in irc.

Our phones successfully unlocked with freegee originally but some error caused us to lose access to the bootloader and corrupt whatever ROM we were on and then cause errors where we could use free gee but run into problems. In my situation the problem was resolved somehow and free gee worked fine afterwards

Just for the sake of documentation, I made a little log of my most recent attempt at getting back into the fastboot menu... obviously it's convoluted, but hey... sometimes experimentation gets results. This time, however, it did not... still no luck.
LGNPST back to stock
factory reset from settings->backups
run root exploit
restore original backups from first time freegeeing via adb using carrett's method
reboot
full unroot from SU app
factory reset
LGNPST to stock
re-run root exploit
reboot
re-unlock with freegee script (adb)
disconnect cable
reboot
(right here is the failure. after running "power off and reboot" from the power button menu, phone shuts off. it tries to start up, then i get a quick flash of the LG logo, straight to a backlit black screen that hangs indefinitely. only thing possible from here is to enter download mode.)
Back to the drawing board...

Just for documentation and in case I can help solving this, I am having the same problem, I explain my case with more detail on the FreeGree Thread, but pretty much I am on the same ship as you, I have tried after LGNPST, with and without factory reset, with the Google Play application and with the desktop application, but same result, black screen after restart.
I have a brand new phone, picked it less than a week ago, could LG have changed something? bootloader/recovery partition sizes? something?
I am still within the 14 days period and as much as I like the phone, if I can't bootloader unlock, means I will be stuck on stock ROM, and that is something I don't want... might as well go and change it for a different phone, or sell it and get a nexus 4...
I get same.thing. black screen after freegee. Its two days old. So now what!?

I can't access the recovery nor can I access adb. The only thing that works is fastboot. Can someone please help me? I have no idea what to do and after hours of searching, nothing like this has ever happened before I assume. I'm sort of a noob. I have adb installed and can use it but I don't know what commands to enter or what files to download or what. Is there any way I can reset my phone or get out of this bootloop? Thank You guys!

Hey, Thanks for telling me that. But I'm kind of a noob. Can you show me a download link of 4EXT (or whatever one you think is best) and what command I should use?

OK. So I looked into the guide, One of the attachments had a broken link so I couldn't do it. I tried flashing a stock RUU but it gave me an error. I tried getting the rom.zip from the temp and flashing that. My bootloader gave me an error and said something about the version being older than the firmware or something like that. I have finally gotten to my recovery, but that did not help. I've cleared EVERYTHING. Now I'm stuck in a bootloop where when the phone boots up it goes straight into JBear phone image with the arrow. I've tried everything. I still have no idea how to fix it. I really need some help.

Thanx for the help guys! Well, I fixed the bootloop and screen by flashing the boot.img. That got me stuck in an HTC logo bootloop, but I WAS SO HAPPY. I HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER SEEN A BOOTLOOP THAN THIS. Well, since I knew how to fix this, I just flashed a stock ROM, and from there installed TWRP recovery and from there flashed a custom ROM (rooted, deodexed, stock, since I still don't have S-OFF). Now I'm just restoring my apps from Carbon( Helium) and getting some new themes. Thanks Guys!:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
Just a heads up. The Evo V 4G seems to operate better when 4EXT recovery is used!
