This case is very simple to solve. When you try to install a custom recovery with your bootloader locked, the phone system detects it and give you a message of an error in security, like in your case. To solve this, you'll need to reflash your rom. By doing this, the KDZ will reflash the original recovery and you will be able to access your phone/recovery again.
Step by step:
1. You need to install fastboot drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119090
Turn off the phone and remove the battery. Download THIS and exctract it to C:/. Open device manager in windows (Rigt click on Computer > Manage > Device manager) and connect your phone without the battery to pc via USB cable. Look in device manager for a new hardware connected, right click on it and click in update drivers. In the window open, select "Search for software driver in the computer" and in the window open select insert C:\fastboot\usb_drv_windows, tick the option "include subfolders" and advance. A pop up window may appear asking you if you do want to install the driver, choose YES and the drivers will install.
2. Navigate to the folder you extracted (C:/fastboot) and double click on start.bat. It will ask you for administrator privileges, just say yes.
3. Select your phone model (2 for P760, 3 for P765, 4 for P768 and 5 for P769). It will ask you to turn off your phone and remove battery. When you done with that, press enter. It will now ask you to insert USB cable with the phone without the battery and after 4 seconds re-insert the battery. Onde you done with that, it wil return a message to press any key. In this step the fastboot drivers may be installed again. Don't worry, it's normal
4. Remove the battery again, wait a few seconds and re-insert it.
5. Plug the USB cable in the phone with the battery in and let VOL UP pressed. The phone will enter in SW Update mode.
6. Follow THIS to reflash your rom. A list of avaiable official roms of different models is HERE. Remember to only flash roms made for your phone model or you may get some issues.
7. You're all done I recommend using THIS TWEAK, the phone becomes more responsive.
*** If you flashed a JellyBean rom (V20X.kdz) you can easily root with THIS and if you want CWM recovery use THIS ONE ------ REMEMBER NOT TO FLASH ANY CUSTOM ROM WITH THIS RECOVERY BECAUSE I'M CONSIDERING YOUR BOOTLOADER IS LOCKED AND FOR THIS REASON, YOU CANNOT FLASH CUSTOM ROMS WITH CWM, IT JUST DOESNT WORK!!!
Hope it help you
It works!!

Thank you so much. Yes my P769 BOOTLOADER definitely is locked and I can't even root it with all methods provided in xda, I use exactly your method to get my L9 back to life -- although I have to flash it back to original stock but at least it's BACK! Thank you so much. I saw some other people have the same issue but they can't make it work, hopefully your answer shed the light to ALL!
security error just use the lg pc suite and remove the lines or the host put recover via recovery and put your imei and it will start to download the stock Rom
send from cursed G-P768g 4.1.2. Panamà

I tried this method and the offline kdz method and here is the trouble I am having.
1. With this method I do everything perfect the device shows up for a couple seconds then it disappears so I cannot go any further.
2. With the offline fix I followed the OP to the letter and when I get to the part where I click on "normal web upgrade" I open it and start the upgrade as stated in the OP and nothing. I get the retry or cancel internet warning and ignore or close it and it will not even try pushing the file.
Anyway I have tried 2 different machines to no avail I am wondering if anyone has had a similar problem and fixed it?

Didn't work for me! But I tried another method and that saved me from a lot of steps.
Just install the driver and the latest LGMobile Support Tool
Start your phone in Software upgrade mode... Power + Vol up
In the LGMobile Support Tool click on Options and then Upgrade Recovery
Put your IMEI in the option that pops up
Wait for the miracle!
It worked for me ... NO MORE LG SECURITY ERROR

cant install fastboot drivers windows 10
Okay guys, I think my phone has a soft brick (no boot logos), so I'm trying to do some restoration... but I'm not having much success.
So, I found a solution in XDA (/showthread.php?t=825173&page=3) saying that I should plug my phone in without battery, SD nor chip and disable the "LG Modem" on my Device Manager. Afterwards, start KDZ Updater and configure it to CS_EMERGENCY. Then I should install a 2.1 French firmware and as soon as KDZ finishes I'd plug off my phone, plug it back in and start it in DL mode again, this time flashing a file named "OUT.kdz", which gives back the boot logos.
Problem: KDZ Updater hangs as soon as I press "Start". It simply freezes when it's in CS_EMERGENCY. I have no solution to this whatsoever, and I also have another thread with previous problems I ran into (Soft-Bricked LG GT540 Optimus).
These are the best forums I've found for any kind of phone, so I'm positive I'll get the help I need, even if I might need to wait some time. Kudos to the admins and every member for taking part of such a great community!

I've fixed all my issues! I'll paste what I said in another thread. Yay for one-full-year struggles!
Just wanted to leave my 2 cents here, I've been trying to do my best since around august 2014, no success. 2 days ago I retried this, and I DID IT! I will tell everyone what I did very shortly:
My problem that I solved: I can boot, device works like a charm. But: no boot logos, no recovery.
My solution for TL;DR: UNINSTALL ALL DRIVERS FROM DEVICE MANAGER 1ST, then reinstall. After that, flash a fastboot ROM and use it to WIPE ALL THE DATA IN YOUR PHONE! THIS was what I needed and was never explained: you had to WIPE the old data in order to get the boot screens back.
IN THIS ORDER (THANK YOU to those people from previous replies, gathering all your info was of great value):
Uninstall all of your phone drivers from your PC!!! This is what made most of my headaches go away, just use Device Manager and uninstall anything from LGE. After that, plug in your device in your USB ports (always BACK ports, not front ports, important). It should detect all drivers and download them.
IF it fails (it generally does with LGE USB Modem), you can go to Device Manager > Unknown Device (the one that wasn't recognized) > Right Click and Update > Choose 2nd option, then choose "choose from a list of local controllers" (or whatever the button says). After that, scroll down to LG Electronics, Inc. and install what didn't install.
I also found these drivers, but I did not test them: http://www.mediafire.com/download/p693hcz6kkouh19/USB_Driver_LG_GT540.zip
Huzzah!
Now you're set to begin:
FIRST thing you wanna do is a factory reset, this is something I'd forgotten with time, don't make the same mistake as I did. You can do it by turning your phone on and pressing Volume +/- & Home & Quick Search buttons all together for 5 seconds (it works, be patient and wait for it, even if you open the camera or any other stuff).
Download this Google SDK Tools (unzip and put the folder in C:\ drive) and this Fastboot drivers for GT540 (unzip and put the files inside the folder in C:\android-sdk).
Skip this next line if you know your ROM has fastboot.
Now, if you don't have a ROM with fastboot, I recommend you use either European Open+Fastboot or V20C Orange France Fastboot ROM.

Click to collapse
Since you have Fastboot enabled, now all you need to do is turn off your device (all this with its battery on it, no weird things) and hold the Camera button before turning it back on. This should take you either to a black screen, or simply to no display, like me. Either one will work anyways.
Now press the Windows key > Type cmd and open it with Right Click > Run as Administrator.
In it, type all this, command by command (you can paste by right clicking):
cd C:\android-sdk
fastboot -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase system
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And now it's go time! Do what everyone else says in here: Take out your phone's battery, SD and SIM cards, fire KDZ Updater up as Administrator (If your KDZ freezes, then it's either faulty or you did not install msxml, look for a good KDZ that comes with that file and delete your current one), choose CS_Emergency PhoneMode and:
1-Plug your phone while holding the volume DOWN button (don't worry! My phone didn't show "Download Mode" either, if you hear the Windows "Somethingpluggedin" Bump noise, it's ok).
2-Flash French V20A
3-Unplug your phone once KDZ says "==FINISHED==".
4-Plug it once again, holding the volume DOWN button.
5-Flash out.kdz (remember! it's CS_Emergency).

THANK YOU XDA!
This is now DEPRECATED and NOT SUPPORTED ANYMORE since there is an easier method to do it! Links won't get updated! You can still use the written info!
If you want rooted kitkat head to my friend's thread @maxx_hr (THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WORK!) HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-l3-l5-l7-l9-ii/development/kk-kk-kdz-p710-root-t2950532
Hello to you all!Warning:
Code:
[COLOR="Red"][SIZE="4"]Your warranty is now void. I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
Please do some research if you have any concerns about all contained in this tutorial
before you follow it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
But since i'm a nice dude i will try to guide you anyway:)[/SIZE][/COLOR]
In this tutorial we will learn how to:
- achieve root on our L7 II (Both single and dual-sim, so P715/P710 and all the derivated phones from them) by LG running a Custom Rom or Stock KK Rom.
FOR THIS FOLLOW ALL STEPS.
- unbrick/flash to a specific firmware using Lg Flash Tool (In this tutorial there are only 2 KDZ files stock JB for P710 and P715. If you want to recover from a brick or want a different KDZ file you can find them over here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/)
FOR THIS FOLLOW STEP 1 AND STEP 2 (install all drivers including adb and download the files that are needed at Step 2).
- flash with CWM (There are 3 methods I describe. Use the one that suits you the best. You can flash any *.zip that is suitable for your device.)
FOR THIS FOLLOW STEP 5.
Save your data you need, you will lose all data so backup with Titanium Backup or a program you like the info you need.
ALL DOWNLOADS ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST!
This tutorial will be split in steps as the following:
1. Preparing the Windows machine with the right drivers and software.
2. Reverting back to Jellybean Stock Rom.
3. Rooting on Stock Rom (Jellybean).
4. Installing Unlocked Bootloader and ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM).
5. Flashing KitKat or a Custom Rom through CWM.
6. Flashing Root through CWM.
So let's start the job.
1. Preparing the Windows machine with the right drivers and software.
Uninstall everything related to LG from Control Panel (Drivers, PC Sync etc).
Restart your PC.
Download and unrar the archive "LG Drivers.rar".
Install both files inside and restart your computer.
Download "adb-setup-1.4.2.exe" and install it (answers should be y y y and install the drivers when prompted).
Download "Framaroot-1.9.1.apk".
Download "LG Flash Tool 2014.rar".
Download "Free LG P710.rar"
Download "P710 Stock KK.zip". -> Stock KK image with Stock KK kernel in it made from the original V20 KDZ (Open Europe).
Download SuperSU
*Download "P715 Stock KK.zip" and "LG P715 (JellyBean).kdz" if you are running a dual-sim version of the phone.
*Download all the files you need!
From now on I will consider you have this files and I will just call their names when to use them.
2. Reverting back to Jellybean Stock Rom.
Open the back cover of your phone and pull the battery out. Wait about 10 seconds. Put the battery back in.
While HOLDING (keep pressed) the VOLUME DOWN BUTTON insert the USB Cable in the phone (you need to have your USB cable inserted in an USB 2 port from the back of your PC).
When you see the yellow screen with emergency mode stop pressing the button.
Unplug the USB from the phone and then plug it in again.
Unrar "LG Flash Tool 2014.rar" and open "LGFlashTool2014.exe" with right-click Run As Admin.
*If you cannot open this program you need to install "VC_RedistInstaller.exe". You are missing some libraries of visual C++*
*IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER PHONE (another LG or P715) DO THE SAME INSTRUCTION AND REPLACE JUST THE KDZ FILE ON "Select KDZ File" TO THE ONE YOU DOWNLOADED AND IS SUITABLE FOR YOUR OWN DEVICE.
Move PhoneMode from DIAG to EMERGENCY. Select KDZ File: you have a file called "V10J_00.kdz" in the same folder as the tool. Select that. Press CSE Flash (CAUTION!!! This will reflash the phone and YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA SO BE WARNED).
Another screen will open and press START.
Another screen will open once again press OK.
At a point you will get an error like "Offline BLA BLA". DON'T DO ANYTHING DO NOT PRESS OK.
Wait until your phone reboots and then you can close this tool.
Remove USB cable.
IMPORTANT STEP:
Pull out the battery. Wait 10 seconds put it back. While holding VOLUME DOWN + HOME BUTTON press POWER BUTTON. Wait until you see LG logo and stop pressing POWER. Keep pressing the other 2 until you see android robot doing things. Wait until the phone boots.
CONGRATZ you are on JELLYBEAN (Or the KDZ you chose).
3. Rooting on Stock Rom (Jellybean).
When you see the welcome screen just fast forward everything.
Go to system settings->security->tick Unknown sources->OK.
Go to system settings->developer options->OK->tick USB debugging->YES.
With an SD card reader or with your USB connected as Media Sync (MTP) copy the "Framaroot-1.9.1.apk" to your SD Card.
Using the phone's FILE MANAGER go to external_SD and click the Framaroot you just copied. Run it using Package Installer Just Once and Install.
When finished press OPEN. At the first choice choose Install SuperSU and then press on "Gandalf". You will get Success. Press OK and reboot.
You will see SuperSU in you apps.
YAY! IT'S DONE.
4. Installing Unlocked Bootloader and ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM).
*SAME FILE YOU NEED FOR LG P715
Earlier you have download "Free LG P710.rar" and in the first step you installed ADB. We will use that now.
Unrar the "Free LG P710.rar" and place the 2 files ON THE ROOT (only on root) of the SD card using device mounted in MTP mode or SD card reader. Put back the card if you use the second option.
WARNING!!!
This can mess up you device so just do what i say step by step!
Plug the USB Cable in the Phone once again and use MTP connection mode.
Click Start+R type CMD and press ENTER.
Run the Following with copy paste to CMD.
Code:
adb devices
You will see your device.
*IF YOU CANNOT MAKE YOUR DEVICE BE RECOGNIZED IN "adb devices" do this:
Install this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=ro
Open terminal and continue with the steps down below.
Code:
adb shell
You will see something ending with $.
Code:
su
Unlock the dvice if it is locked and your phone will ask for superuser permission press GRANT.
Code:
dd if=/storage/external_SD/APPSSBL.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5
This will copy the unlocked bootloader to the bootloader partition.
Code:
dd if=/storage/external_SD/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17
This will copy the CWM to recovery partition.
Code:
reboot recovery
This will reboot your phone in CWM if you followed all steps correctly.
GREAT SUCCES we have an unlocked bootloader and CWM.
Close your CMD.
Unplug USB.
5. Flashing KitKat or a Custom Rom through CWM.
*IF YOU WANT TO FLASH ANOTHER ZIP FILE OR YOU ARE ON P715 JUST USE THE ARCHIVE YOU NEED AS REFERENCE, NOT "P710 Stock KK.zip". CHOOSE THE FILE THAT IS MOST SUITABLE OR YOU THINK IT'S BEST FOR YOU
I made "P710 Stock KK.zip" you downloaded. This is the stock image for KK Open Europe. Here you can either flash mine or search for a Custom Rom for your device. Either way you will follow the exact same steps but with a different archive. I will take for reference the "P710 Stock KK.zip".
Plug USB in.
You Navigate using Volume Up Button (UP) and Volume Down Button (DOWN). The Power Button is OK.
Do this:
- Go to "wipe data/factory reset" and OK. Go to YES then OK. Wait until done.
- Go to "mounts and storage" and do the following: "format /cache" and "format /system" everytime with YES as second option. Press "go back" once.
- Go to "advance" and then "wipe dalvik cache" and YES. Press "go back".
Here you have 3 options.
OPTION 1.
Use an SD card reader copy the Zip file to the root of the SD card or copying using CWM. Using CWM you navigate with Volume Up and Volume Down to "mounts and storage" press POWER BUTTON (OK). Go to "mount USB storage" and your SD card will appear in windows and you can copy. After that you press "go back" 2 times to get to the main menu.
Go to "Install zip" and then "choose zip from sdcard". Search for the zip file and press OK then go to "YES" and press OK. Wait until done.
Go to "wipe data/factory reset" and OK. Go to YES then OK. Wait until done.
Press "Reboot System Now" and "yes" if asked (if you are asked about some fix or anything after you press reboot now choose the positive thing like the answer that is not no).
OPTION 2.
Copy the file using adb push. Open a CMD window in Windows (Start+R type CMD press ENTER). Copy this:
Code:
adb push
With the space. After space go where you downloaded the zip file highlight it and drag it in the CMD. Leave a space after that and type /sdcard (without space after).
Wait until done and close CMD.
After you copied the file to your sdcard go to "install zip" -> "choose zip from sdcard" -> search for the "P710 Stock KK.zip" press OK then go to "YES" and your installation will beging. Wait until it is done. Go to "wipe data/factory reset" and OK. Go to YES then OK. Wait until done.
Press "Reboot System Now" and "yes" if asked (if you are asked about some fix or anything after you press reboot now choose the positive thing like the answer that is not no).
NOTE: In the zip i made i don't know why i couldn't sideload it but usually you do not have to copy to SD card to flash something. You can sideload it. All you have to do is:
-Go to "install zip" -> "install from sideload"
On your computer open a CMD and copy this :
Code:
adb sideload
Copy with space and after what you copied grab the zip you want to flash and drag it to CMD. Hit ENTER. Sideload will send the zip to phone and process of flashing will start. After it is done reset to factory again.
Press "Reboot System Now" and "yes" if asked (if you are asked about some fix or anything after you press reboot now choose the positive thing like the answer that is not no).
CONGRATZ YOU ARE NOW ON KITKAT. I HONESTLY THINK THAT YOU SHOULD GO FOR THIS CUSTOM ROM OVER HERE BECAUSE IT IS LIKE 10 TIMES BETTER THAN THE STOCK KK. TO INSTALL JUST DOWNLOAD THE ZIP FILE FROM THERE (V2) AND FOLLOW THE TUTORIAL WITH JUST REPLACING THE ZIP WITH THE OTHER ZIP.

6. Flashing Root through CWM.
On some ROMS root will not be there. To avoid this we will flash the SuperSU zip.
To get to recovery you have 2 ways:
- From you ROM connect USB as MTP or in a way that ADB recognizes it (device gets detected by adb devices) type adb reboot recovery.
- Close your phone. At the same time press VOLUME DOWN + HOME BUTTON + POWER BUTTON. When you see the LG logo stop pressing POWER BUTTON. Keep the others 2 until you are in CWM.
Install the SuperSU zip with one of the ways you learnt at step 5.
You are rooted now.
Hope everything worked out fine for you and you are happy. Have a really nice day.

Does P713 have NFC?
This method actually works for dual sim too,you just have to use P715 kdz's.

Yeah it does. Maybe this weekend I will mod it. It is usefull for recoverying from soft bricks also just Step 1 and 2.
it was great till i get stuck on boot loop ,,, now how to solve ?
thanks for the useful guide.
I have a problem though, I cannot go after kdz extraction.
LG Tools stops with an cryptic error like [009.400.120.120.120]PC????? and looking at the log it seems there are troubles in unpacking the kdz file.
I have tried with different roms but still the same.
Does anyone has the same problem ?

I can't really understand you. The point of this guide is to get root on kitkat so flashing with lg flashtool will not work if you want kit kat rooted. I tested that V10J on my own l7 2 (p710). Also if you flashed Jellybean did you press CSE Flash not Normal Flash?

Ok do that step again. Flash with that tool using the image i provided. After the last ok. Even when you get the offline error don't touch it until phone reboots. If you get bootloop do this.
1. Pull out battery. Wait 10 seconds. Push battery back in.
2. While holding POWER DOWN + HOME BUTTON press POWER BUTTON. Wait until you see LG logo then stop presing POWER. You will get to see android guy doing stuff. Then tell me if it's ok.

Don't forget to press the thx button it's in the right . I will add this to the tutorial I didn't need it but who knows.
I managed to do the "root" step, but somehow cannot proceed with the next step.
When I check "USB debugging", the phone doesn't connect to the computer for some reason. I tried multiple computers, with no luck. The "adb devices" says just empty "List of devices attached".
If I disable the USB debugging, the phone gets connected just fine, if I enable it again, it gets stuck on "Connected as installer", and doesn't connect as MTP....
Any idea how to fix this?
Do you have drivers installed? Also when you press MTP cancel if your phone wants to install anything.

I tried everything, without luck. I ended just using terminal emulator to copy the files on phone directly (might be cool to add this to your tutorial, as someone else can also have this problem). So, now I'm on Amigas ROM - makes a HUGE difference! Thanks, looking forward for some other custom ROMs for this phone..

Strange huuummm. I don't know. Yeah i will add Terminal Emulator also in weekend. Never happened to any of my phones before... Maybe driver conflict on your PC or something like that.
Look if around the internet and only found a SM-J100H root which bricked my device so I had to re flash it, could you please help me find a root for my device please? I know my phone is uncommon especially for the US. I know there is a possible way to root any android device.
Same problem here...
G'day,
I was just looking through for a new ROM for my girlfriends phone (j100y) and saw this.
I rooted her phone with kingo root after flashing the file listed below, just search it - I cant post links.

Complete Step By Step Tutorial to Root Samsung Galaxy J1:
This tutorial is only managed using a PC
Step 1:
Download MD5 file through www mediafire.com/downl.../r99xeoywhdryenc/boot.tar.md5
Step 2:
Download and install the USB Driver. www mediafire.com/.../a4hd8y0c1iakysk/Samsung-Usb-Driv...
Step 3:
Download ODIN v3.10 and directly extract it. www mediafire.com/.../v26m0vfo1rb9xi6/Odin3_v3.10.6.zip
Step 4:
Phone: enter download mode first >>. After being turned off, HOLD all three buttons (Power button + Volume Down button + Home Button). After turned on, immediately release (Power button) but still HOLD Volume Down Button + Home button. After that select Continue using Volume button UP. now your phone is already in the download mode.
Step 5:
Plug the phone to a PC via USB cable
Step 6:
Open the Odin v3.10 application that is already downloaded. Click the PA button and select the MD5 file that is already downloaded. Then Click (START) button. Wait until completed and the phone will automatically reboot
Step 7:
Download application iROOt and install in PC. See www mgyun.com/en/getvroot
Step 8:
Open the iRoot application that is already installed earlier and run the root process
Sm-j100y /= sm-j100h
I have encountered a similar incompatibility trying to use the SM-J100H TWRP recovery onto a SM-J100Y handset. Trying to boot into recovery after doing this freezes it, and I have to power it off to get out of it.
It looks like some further development is needed to create a compatible Rom/TWRP image that wont brick the SM-J100Y.

Comparing the 2 models on here (I can't post links...) mobosdata.com/samsung-galaxy-j1-sm-j100y and mobosdata.com/samsung-galaxy-j1-sm-j100h, the hardware differences are:
RAM: J100y-768MB ; J100H-512MB
SIM: J100y=Single SIM ; J100H=Dual SIM
Network: J100y=3G 850, 900, 2100 MHz, as well as 4G 700, 900, 1800, 2100, 2600 MHz ; J100H=3G 900, 2100 MHz
NFC: J100Y=yes ; J100H=No
Hotspot: J100Y=yes ; J100H=No
AudioRecording: J100Y=yes ; J100H=No
I just wanted to install TWRP. Does anyone know if you need to unlock the bootloader for that using Odin? I would not have thought so, but I could be wrong.
Rooting SM-J100Y
'J100YDXU0AOC1_root.tar' image by Hosam Kashto (Password "hosamkashto") does indeed work for rooting my SM-J100Y but i fail to connect to my network Skinny, if there is a way to edit the image and make a boot img for the updated firmware version i'll be willing to give it a shot. And how hard is it to create a TWRP/CWM rom for this device?
root access successful
I have successfully rooted my samsung J100Y with no issues what so ever, J100YDXU0AOC1.
You need to install kingoroot on your phone first then install kingoroot on your PC, Also install ODIN V3.07 on your PC to get this done properly, when I get home I will upload the files to my dropbox and give better details how to do this correctly.
How To Root Samsung Galaxy J1
This is how you root the Samsung Galaxy J1 (J100YDXU0AOC1) Australia.
- Install Kingoroot on your phone
- Install both Kingoroot and Odin V3.07 on your PC (in the files provided below)
- Put your phone into download mode, power off the phone then hold down power, home and volume down until you see the little android robot
- Open Odin V3.07 and plug your phone in
- Click on PDA in Odin V3.07 and navigate to the file J100YDXU0AOC1_root.tar and press Start (let it work its magic)
- When it says Pass in Odin you are good to go, now open Kingoroot on your PC and run it, it will make sure it is properly rooted, your phone will tell you it is rooted before the PC version does, that's it you have now successfully rooted your phone.
I have included the original firmware in the files just in case something goes wrong for you, you can use Odin to restore with the original firmware.

i got root j100y. took 2 days but got it. Flash J100YDXU0AOC1_OPPOAOC1_V4.4.4_Repair_Firmware.zip. Unzip and find necessary files. Used odin3 13.3.1 latest version, insert files BL, AP and so from the zip. If its taking too long more than 20 mins, power off phone and back on but dont unplug from pc. Should start where it left off. Now, set up phone when it reboots, settings, about phone, tap build number 5 times, enter developer mode, enable usb debug, allow installations from unknown sources. Down apk kingoboot, install on phone. one click root. Device should reboot. Now check root with an app. Should be done if not run kingoroot on pc. Keep trying and follow any prompts on phone always allow and install anyway etc. It is possible.
Hi All,
Really annoying self inflicted problem, changed the swipe code, forgot it, google account ADM wont reset phone, no sequence of button pressing gets phone into recovery mode, USB debugging appears to be off. How can I save my phone??!??!?!?!? What sequence should I follow, what ROM should I install, need a step by step if at all possible, complete newbie!!1? Thanks in advance.

ok you are most likely on 20160810 where recovery does not work.
you are most likely on windows 10 as well. first lets find a rom where recovery works.
We can use 20160810 rom and wipe userdata partition..
Here is the download link https://mega.nz/#!ys4DTIxa!8rrL0aktVQ8W7Q4Et8fvQ8jk2tAxLZvJOJH48S9Vkyk .
Once you have finished downloading you should then extract it to a folder.
Next we need to prepare your computer for the flashing process by installing the correct drivers.
look in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p9000/how-to/how-to-guideline-install-mtk-drivers-t3344042 scroll for your version of windows. follow the instructions and everything should work.
If you dont have add hardware option in windows then hit windows button and r and enter hdwwiz.exe.
now you have installed the drivers we need to download sp flash tools which is what we need to install the rom.
So go this website http://spflashtool.com/ now click on the first download link 'SPFlash Tool 5.1628' .
this will download a zip file. again extract it to a new folder. ok now you need to go in the flash tool and run flash_tool.exe by just clicking on it. now the software will load up.
You need to load the scatter file from the rom folder. The scatter file should be outside the encrypt folder and should be called MT6755_Android_scatter.txt . Now the rom should be loaded. You have some more options here, you can either untick all boxes and leave userdata (where your security and codes are stored) ticked or you can leave everything ticked which would flash the rom again. So once you have decided what option you have you need to turn your phone off. you then need to click download in flash tools and then connect your phone to the pc and hold the vol+ button. Then wait for it to flash, once the box with the tick opens you can close the program and restart your phone.
no recovery
there is no recovery in this build.........you have to flash one of your own.....
No recovery
Thank you, will start trying now and let you know.
Success!

Scarred to death, I restarted my phone, no damage done, but now, after stay away from the idea the time to recover from my post traumatic syndrome disorder, I am ready to try again with the help of peoples knows what they are doing.

As someone who has done this a few times - and forgotten this vital step almost every time, just a reminder that when using SPFlash Tool - after you set up the scatter file, you click on download so that it is trying to communicate with the phone before you even plug the cable into the phone, then with your phone turned off you hold Vol+ as you plug in the cable. It should send the file almost instantly.
