Can anyone of you help me because i think i need to do a factory reset, but now it stuck in boot loop and it does not have a key combination to go into recovery mod. Help
Noone answer till now...
There is a key combination. Search it on google. How to boot lg optimus (your model) into recovery. Once in wipe data then wipe cache
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Expansion
From searching other forums and google I found the following:
You can enter update mode by removing the battery, then while holding down the VOL + button plug in your usb cord(i assume while it's connected to your computer).
Then you can search the forums here and find:
[LG P970] Upgrade Kit 3.5
(the title is longer than this i just didn't put it all in here due to laziness)
This should help you in your quest of retrieving your phone from light up paperweight status. I don't really know though. Since I've never used your phone. Good luck.
recovery mode
you need to press the home button,volume -, and power,
to enter to the recovery mode.
sorry for my bad english.
Does not work on the LG-P970g from Telus aka Optimus Black
To get into Recovery mode :
Press and hold Volume down + Home key
then press and hold the above combination and also press and hold power button for a while
You'll get into Recovery mode
Hope it helped :angel:

The Home key is actually the touch key on the Optimus Black..it's not a button but a touch input
The combination is the same as above :good:

Doesn't work when you power up your device with those keys.
Power on your device before you press the key combination.
Took me a frustrating half an hour to find out...

can you please explain in a little more details?
tried to get into recovery with the instructions, but a straight boot!
BTW I am on stock gingerbread ROM rooted!
power up your phone, then press and hold vol down + home key and then also press and hold the power button until the phone restarts. then it should boot into recovery.
btw i made a small video tutorial

power up your phone, when the buttons start to blink (or the cm logo appears or whatever boot logo you have) press and hold vol down then press power button (home key is not really needed like the video ) . it also works on stock rom if you have a recovery installed.
note that it won't work at the early bootup when the lg logo appears or when android is booted and ready.

Thanks a lot ! :laugh: You almost saved my life ! USB PC connexion don't work, I couldn't do anything else than achieving booting recovery without adb.

It takes me in safe mode, i'm not even sure what it is (I guess is something similar to window's? It has less apps when I am in safe mode!
I'm not sure what to do, I tried to reboot in recovery mode with the ROM manager but it doesn't work (nothing of the ROM manager works actually).
Any ideas on what safe mode is?
Thanks!
UPDATE:
I tried this app to reboot in recovery mode
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot&hl=en
It rebooted the phone, the android robot showed up with some stuff turning in the stomach (like this: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/76/Android_Update_Screen.JPG) and then it turned on normally except that all my data now is gone (which is not a problem since I wanted to wipe it from the recovery mode, the problem is that I still can't get into recovery mode!
P.S.: it wouldn't let me post normal links because I'm a new member, I hope I didn't break any rule posting them like this! (after all it's not spam!)
i want to install clockworkmod 5 on my ace and according to instructions to enter recovery mode i have to press and hold vol+ and power key . the phone just boots normally when i do that . i kept them pressed until it asked for pin .

Hi Gurus of this forum, I need your help (again)!
I just did a stupid thing. I flashed MIUI directly over CM10, which now puts me into boot loop (Samsung Vibrant logo ... CM10 logo ... install & fail ... Samsung Vibrant logo ... CM10 logo ... install & fail ...).
I already tried the following tricks with no luck (keeps rebooting):
1. Remove & insert battery, then Vol Up + Vol Dn + Power Btn (recovery mode expected).
2. Vol Up + Vol Dn + plug USB cable (download mode expected).
3. adb reboot recovery (of course it doesn't work - cannot even connect to the phone while it keeps rebooting).
I am not new to flashing & have done Odin before. But right now I have no idea what to do next? Any suggestion?
BTW I would prefer not to format/re-partition my internal SD 'coz I have tons of photos on it!
Thanks for your valuable help in advance!
Try just vol- and power for recovery.

Wow it worked like magic! Why haven't I heard about this combo before?
This combo is used with Gingerbread Bootloaders
For Recovery - Lower Volume Key + Power Button
For Download - Upper Volume Key + Power Button
