I found this phone today without a sim or sd card in it today. When I tried to boot it it just sits at the LG logo. I'm not new to MODing and rooting androids but I can't get this to work.
What I've tried is the 3 button rest with no luck so I went to the S/W Updater. I'm using the AIO tool I found in these threads. I've installed the lg drivers and was trying to flash the ICS V10G_00.kdz cause I'm not sure what version of andriod was on it.
I followed the guide but when it starts to flash it gets to 15% and says the phone is not connected to my PC. I attached a screenshot of the error I'm getting. I'm pretty sure I installed everything else I need except I'm not to sure if I have the correct drivers or maybe I need other drivers with them.
Anyone know what I can try to get it working? I haven't messed with many LG's so they are pretty new to me.
Any help would be awesome.
Remember I was never able to boot the phone on so I wasn't able to install any of the drivers that would normally install them selves by plugging in the usb and I couldn't change any of the usb settings in the developers settings.
TIA for any help.
So you "found" phone eh? Maybe they're is a reason no one wanted it anymore.

Yeah I figured this not booting was why they through it out but thought I might be able to recover from it. I've got phones to come back from worse. I just hate these updaters, thats why I never got another Samsung. I didn't even know LG had them. I rooted the optimus s and marquee and never seen an updater. I'm a HTC guy my self.
You need to flash the ice cream u-boot in fastboot
Use this guide

Thank you. I'll try this after work. The link you gave me doesn't say how to get into fastboot. I haven't seen it on this phone no matter what combination of buttons I hold. How do you get this into fastboot if the phone doesn't power on?

I tried this but I'm not sure if fastboot is working. I don't see it go into fastboot. I installed the drivers like in the guide and even tried flashing the uboot and xloader and it says done at the end with no error so I'm not sure. I tried flashing the kdz with the updated and still get the same error about the usb not being connected.
Any ideas?

To check if its working, select the option for just fastboot.
Once in that window, type
fastboot devices
This should let you know if it's working.
I like to run the commands manually, Lol it's more reassuring, that everything was done properly.

Since you have fastboot running now, just follow the direction on the third link.
After flashing in fastboot, run the offline flash program.
Actually, what happened to that phone you found, might be the same problem for the person on the third link.

update: file updated, mylk Thanks for catching the mistake!

#1 is just a general fastboot, you can put whatever (boot.img, recovery.img, etc) you want to flash via fastboot in "yours" folder - type: fastboot devices and you'll see if your phone is recognized
and the rest is mainly for recovery, ics xloaders and uboots work nicely with offline flashing method also several people mistakenly soft bricked their phones with omap4boot by flashing prada files which can't happen with this tool
For me general fastboot works on ArchLinux. But I only put recovery with it...

of course if you have functional rom and unlocked bootloader you don't need it
Hi there, its been a while since I tried fastboot again, but I have good news. Fastboot worked on my P768 using this method, I selected option 1. Then I was able to send recovery to my phone and then root the phone using a flashable SuperSU zip! 'adb reboot recovery' takes me straight into CWM!
I have some questions though.
Is fastboot permanently on the phone like it is on the P760 now? or do I have to use this program each time to send fastboot commands?
Does this mean that I could potentially flash a custom rom to my phone now? I know all the custom roms out there are not for the P768, so I will get camera problems. But is this the missing piece of the puzzle for custom rom development/testing?
Thank you lelus for this great tool!

Fastboot is definitely there but something doesn't get passed along during adb reboot bootloader or oem-unlock and phone just reboots instead of booting to fastboot.

I'm pretty sure* you can use Android Kitchen to replace these files in latest Cyanogenmod zip with ones from p768 jb and have camera working.

So I got my bootloader unlocked but unfortunately during the second flashing process the up test program froze and errored out, now my phone isnt recognized in adb devices and will only go into s/w upgrade mode.
Edit: I also tried fastboot and was able to sucessfuly get into fasboot but flashing the stock x-loader and u-boot was unsucessful and fastboot just gave me the "waiting on device" message.
Edit 2: So after quite the night of running through your guide and a couple of hard ships, I have to say this a very well written guide and it would have worked the first try if I had been doing too much multitasking while in the second flash process.
Overall was easy to follow and I got through after having failed attempts with others guide before due to oem unlock command not working after waiting.
Also I highly reccomend anyone who is going to try this to at least give the other tutorials on unlocking the bootloader for the p769 a solid read through. It will make a difference in what you understand and dont.
Lots of props and I look forward to seeing what you do for our phone in the future!

also in your guide you have the following command: Go to the Superuser App and update the binary the normal way

go into recovery and try turning adb sideload on then off and see if adb recognizes your device after that.

3- Phone was good for a solid day, then rebooted.
4- After reboot phone said a lot of the services are force closing and then rebooted into the white htc screen
5- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2131284 and followed it to the T
6- phone is not being recognized in adb

I believe i have them installed, but everytime i try to install the drivers via device manager I have windows telling me its already and its latest driver installed.
Good thing though is now my device is being recognized in adb and fastboot <devices> but still having issues pushing or flashing rom

When in device manager , how is the unit listed? Does the listing have an yellow exclamation point in front of it?

Might want to unplug from the net when installing them so it doesn't look for others which driver version you installing? EDIT: also if you have a otg cable then you can put the rom on a flash drive and flash it from that.

About that error, I've read in some threads they said it because busybox. Try to install latest version or replace it with working version. You can find more info by searching.

I think the easiest way is to use LG mobile support tool. refer to this member post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2456558&highlight=encrypt
- Boot you phone to S/W update mode
- Run LG mobile support tool (B2CAppSetup.exe)
- Select recover you phone from menu and wait for about an hour
- *Dont forget to comment lg server that you add in host file for offline flash
There're also other way to fix it, if you can boot into Stock recovery by Holding vol- + ... (I can't remember ), but this combo may hard reset your phone if you don't have stock recovery. In stock recovery mode you can use adb to push and replace busybox. I don't try this myself but some member unbrick their phone by this method.

You're on JB rom? Try to flash ICS u-boot/x-loader using Lelus tool first and try again. But for LG mobile support tool it should go pass 15% even if you flash it or not. May be you don't install latest lg usb driver?

So I rooted my phone with a locked bootloader using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173465 and went ahead and installed CWM recovery, and then tried to flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428306
After my phone rebooted, I keep on getting this LG Security Error and cannot boot into the phone. I've tried to use the fastboot method to try and flash a new kdz, however I keep on getting stuck at the waiting for device part.. would appreciate it if anyone could help me to just restore my phone to factory settings?

Sounds like you made a serious error and didn't do any research before proceeding. Did you install the LG drivers prior to doing anything with the phone? If not, you have just bricked your device. L9RecoveryInstaller.apk is the ONLY way at the moment to successfully install CWM on the P769 if the bootloader is locked. I don't have all the answers myself as I'm fairly new to this device, P769, myself. There may be someone here with a little more insight as to how to fix your issue, but if you didn't install LGs drivers beforehand, I'd say your device is bricked. Sorry.
You'll need to use fastboot to flash ICS u and x. Then go into upgrade mode by holding volume up and plugging the phone to the computer. Upgrade mode should pop up and you're ready to flash any kdz using the offline flash method.

Or simply unbrick using the lgupdate tool. Why not go the easy way?

security error should appear when some system mod was been wrong (sorry bad english)
you should re-flash the firmware with kdz(this time flash a firmware with cwm and root included)

L9 P769 is a much different creature than the other P76X variants. CWM CANNOT be installed on the recovery partition unless the bootloader is unlocked. There are very few people here who have managed to unlock the bootloader on this device ( P769 ). Any attempt to modify the bootloader, boot partition, or recovery ends in "LG Security Error". As per my previous post, the only way to get CWM on this device with a locked bootloader is with the L9RecoveryInstaller.apk.

Do you have busybox installed and or do you have multiple copies of busybox installed?
If you don't have busybox, install it from the Play Store. Make sure it installs to /system/xbin.
If you have multiple copies, which I did when I had this error, use the busybox installer to uninstall all copies of busybox and then use the installer to reinstall busybox to /system/xbin.
You may need to run L9RecoveryInstaller again. It will say there is a recovery installed just reinstall anyway.
Reboot and try again.

Cm11 is available, yes some people can unlock the bootloader. Theres a few threads about removing tmobile bloatware, along with solutions to the other questions I answered. Simply search your question and you'll find a solution. THEN if you can't find the solution by searching make a thread to ask about it. Goodluck if you try unlocking the bootloader, its quite a journey!! If you can't unlock it or the process scares you out of trying search Kuma ROM. Goodluck!

Hi, I'm in a similar boat as the OP, successfully rooted the device but didn't realise I needed an unlocked bootloader to flash a recovery. Now I get Security Error.
Now, I keep seeing "ICS x and u" on this forum, and have no idea what it is. Yet people keep saying it like it's obvious.
Is this it? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44144663
If so, obviously I can't follow the steps because my phone won't boot up past the splash screen. And said phone isn't recognized by ADB at the moment, because I can only figure out how to boot it into S/W update mode.
Currently I can't even use the L9RecoveryInstaller.apk, because, again, can't boot up. Help?

You'll need to use fastboot to flash the x and u images. They are included with the tools. Search the General section.
