From the following thread:
[Q] LG L9 P769 Bootloader not Unlocking
This will require some practice if your screen is already wonky, so patience grasshopper...
OK, I followed a process and got my phone back to square one, but also rooted and it goes as follows:
Verify both LG SW Update mode is sellected in PC connections settings, and that USB debugging is also selected
1 flash V20D_00.kdz (via the Up TestEX mod2_marwin application)
2 master reset
3 re-root device (by this time, you should be familiar with the correct touch locations on the wonky touch screen); LgPWN.apk used
5 device successfully restarted without further human interaction (if this does not happen, device is not successfully rooted; possibly try another rom in the same V20 designation
5 install SU
6 confirm phone set to LG SW mode in PC Connections setting
7 run Lelus firmware fix:
8 wait for device to promt for SU access and allow
9 On the command line: (always run as administrator)
cat /sdcard/external_sd/v6.bin > /sys/devices/virtual/input/lge_touch/firmware
reboot
10 device restored to original stock
It's not bootloader unlocked yet, but better than near softbrick...and still rooted.

Ive run adb reboot oem-unlock many, many times with no success; device just restarts. I've gotten CWM installed but still cannot flash roms. Its rooted, carrier unlocked, and otherwiseready to go; but no luck. I've updated the adm device log with the LG device identifier hex that I found in a link to google's adm help and troubleshooting section, and the device is recognized by adm again, but the command only restarts the device. It is interesting to note that I now get the flashing nav buttons when it boots however. If I hold down the vol down button it'll boot in CWM recovery, but holding the vol up button seems to do nothing. Any clues?

The cwm with the blinking lights at boot is a second init recovery (bootstrap). Meaning it was made for locked bootloader. It not a true custom recovery. I can't help you with the unlock, to many unknown stuff. It has only worked for some.

OK, I will start off by saying I have (nearly) completely screwed myself.
I have a P769 (TMO; does this mean BK?).
I followed this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38677123http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38677123) to root the device and successfully made it through (using V20D KDZ).
Then then tried to flash this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335984). Unforunately, I did not have an unlocked bootloader and now I am receiving a Security Error at boot. Even more unfortunate is that I did NOT do a backup so I am truly in a bad place now.
I tried to run through the first step of rooting but the software will not detect the phone as being connected and tells me to connect the USB cable. I have installed the drivers that are in that post but admittedly I may have updated them after rooting.
At this point I only have access to fastboot so I am trying that method but I cannot find any system.img files to be able to flash the system partition.
What do I do now? Can anyone help me? I have exhausted every Google search and XDA search. I may be missing something but I feel I am in a very bad place now and need to get this phone back up and running.

I am running 32-bit Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1. I tried flashing V20D_00.kdz (using the offline flash) as well as the V10G_00.kdz and V10E_00.kdz.
Using the offline flash method I constantly get the error of cannot connect to phone no matter how many times I restart the PC or phone and unplug USB.

All caps, correct.
Should I do fastboot and then run the offline method?
I did do the fastboot then tried the recovery phone option from the support tool.
I did find a recovery I made that included (for some reason) only the recovery and boot.

I'll reboot and then try that again. I'll check back afterwards.
Should I do anything extra like start the offline flash from scratch as far as drivers? I'm not even sure where to begin in regards to what drivers/files to remove.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Now I just need to figure out the screen calibration.
Also, what can I do with this now? Do I need to unlock the bootloader to load custom ROMs without getting a security error?
Sorry for my lack of knowledge. My last phone was a Bionic and that was the easiest phone to root and add a ROM to.
unfortunately i find myself in this situation
gettin security error after what i assume was me trying to flash on a locked bootloader
anyway, i can't figure this out, the whole flashing fastboot and what not
i read through the readme and installed the drivers for the "other/unknown" device that pops up
this is what i try to do next
open up start.bat
enter 5 and hit enter
remove battery from phone (as instructed) and hit any key
boot phone into sw upgrade (holding vol up and plugging in usb cable)
device seems to be picked up and i see the "wait 5 seconds" (german?) and the image is revered horizontally on my phone
now after 4/5 seconds it says "waiting for device", which then i put the battery in
but NOTHING happens after this, it hangs at "waiting for device"
can someone please tell me what i'm doing wrong?
otherwise i think i'm left with a totally effed lg optimus l9

Odds are, you are doing nothing wrong. Check your android version, if you are on 4.2+ (JellyBean) you can't unlock your bootloader quite yet. Here is the thread you should keep track of at the moment http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277639&page=152

I've found that the process completes if you put the battery back in , right after you reconnect the USB.

Nope! I had to do a warranty exchange. I was copying the system image then I thought it finished so I unplugged the phone. May I tried my best to get the phone back but I could only get into fastboot mode, but hey lesson learned. Though I did see this tool that someone here was trying to use to flash bin and fls files in 3 minutes! But it only works for p790 Optimus black. Which sucks because I could get my phone into an inverted S/W upgrade mode (yeah I know it's on the real one) but it only lasted for about 3 minutes then shut down so doing the offline fix just took too long. I would get to about 23% install and the phone would just turn off. . so close! LOL
EDIT: YEAH got the phone to finally work! No exchange now, take that LG! Just kept trying there offline fix

I'm trying to restore my P769 to stock (Stuck LG logo), and getting nowhere.
How did you get the flash to work? What error did you get when the phone would turn off? How did you get the inverted S/W mode?
My phone only got to 17-20% before getting an connection error using the offline booth method, this was with both JB and ICS u-boot/boot/recovery .imgs from the P769 ROMs--should I try the steps in unlocking the bootloader to at least get to a bootable state?

How did you solve this? I am at the same steps, I get into mirrored software mode and then I attempt the offline fix. I have even started the offline fix early to save time. And yet it will only stay on for 2 and a half minutes or so and then shuts off. The farthest i have been able to get it to go is 41%. I have tried fastboot mode to try and send boot.img and it just says that it cannot find the boot partition. So it looks like my only option is the offline fix but it doesn't have enough time to complete. I have tried about 20 or so times how many tries did it take for you? Did you do anything special to get it to finish? any advice on how to get it to finish? Spent about 6 hrs last night trying to get this phone back up and running and this is where i am stuck. Its lame cuz i woke up to the phone like this it was fine when i went to bed. And was for months.
I understand that I am in no way the first person to have boot loop problem with the font installer but the solution always seems to be to flash a rom. My problem however is that I don't have cynagonmod or aokp, I only have stock jelly bean 4.1.2 on my LG p769
I did root my Phone and I have changed my font 2 other times before but this time when I did it my phone just went into a boot loop, do I need cwm recovery? because I don't think I have that and honestly this entire process has ben nothing but confusing.
If you don't have a custom recovery then you have to flash a ROM. You have to install adb and then fastboot then sw mode to flash the right ROM. Sounds complicated but it's kinda easy once you get the hang of it. Good luck

So it turns out it was because I was using Windows 8 ( or possibly my surface pro) , I haven't flashed my phone yet but at least I've installed the driver and I'm running Fast Boot now, Thanks Nathan.7118391
I have reached a point where my phone has the the LG logo in black and white backwards, and it says fastboot v0.2 backwards... but the post doesn't say anything about how to flash the rom aferwards. and does it need to be an official kdz or can it be aokp?
I get as far as...
sending image to target...
size = 246272
usb_write 4
usb_write 246272
** Done **
< waiting for device >
then my phone re-enters the bootloop
I'm sorry to keep asking questions but every time I make progress there is always some problem and every forum just leads me to another forum.. I've already achieved fast boot on my phone, "I think" but I'm extremely confused as to how to flash the kdz. Any detailed explanation would be deeply appreciated. This probably seems really easy for you but am at wits ends. Thanks however for guiding me so far
I think I should add that I'm newish to XDA and this is my first post

His has an easy option to flash (with fastboot), the ice cream x & u for your device.
You need to do this to get the offline flash working.
Once you flash the x & u run the offline flash. Look at carloswii5 video to see how it is done.

Ok I'm assuming you are having trouble with the omap4boot commands. As the instructions say take out your battery from your phone and disconnect from computer. Run the program from your computer to get to the menu then select #3 for Prada and once you press enter put the usb cord into the phone then wait about 5 seconds then place your battery in. Should be smooth sailing after that. Once it asks you do you want fastboot just say no, and no to loading u-boot. Just disconnect your phone and you are done with this part. .Let me know when you are finished with this.
You can't flash a custom ROM in fastboot so you will have to load a stock kdz file but that's later. .
I finished that, I got all the way to the end where it says
--------------------------------------------

Please remove USB cable
and wait until LG Logo on
then reconnent USB cable again

No Lelus method yet. You can do as Kuma has said above or what I did. Either way we are both trying to help you. Now that you got that done and congrats on that! Follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44325657&postcount=4&nocache=1&z=6862240654882044 which will help you with getting u-boot and x-loader on your phone. Skip getting the drivers because you already did that. But you will do the same thing that you did with the earlier program just now you are installing the x-loader and u-boot for your phone so your computer can "see" it. Once you've done that then you can flash with the Lelus method. But be sure to get it done right and practice if you need to.

OK thanks for clearing my confusion on the Lelus method... but I have tried both Omap... and Fastboot, my problem with fastboot is that it get to step 3 of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44325657&postcount=4&nocache=1&z=6862240654882044
My phone screen is inverted and it says fastboot, but my computer never says press any button, just stops at <waiting for device>
about 1 minute after this appears, my phone just reboots into the loop. and I've seen other people post the entire script so I know my phone, or computer is stopping right before the x-loader and u-booter, for whatever reason.

Ah, ok, ok, ok. . .Try this: bring the program up with the choices then press #5 but don't hit enter just yet. Now take your battery out and put the usb into the computer but don't connect it to your phone. Hold the cable next the plug in and hit enter. . .then it will say something like requesting omap4boot that's when you place the cable into your phone then it will go through some stuff pretty fast don't pay any attention just count in your head to 4 or 5 seconds then put your battery and wait 'till the fastboot comes up. . .that's it. once that happens your phone is u-boot and x-load ready.
After that this point sucked for me. You have to take out the battery and unplug your phone from your computer at the same time then wait 2 seconds and put your battery back in then immediately afterward hold the volume up button while inserting your cable back into the computer. . .wait for S/W upgrade mode. THEN YOU DO THE LELUS METHOD!!!

Nope, it doesn't matter ...have you tried using different usb port ? preferably not usb3
I decided early this week that i want to have a custom ROM on my phone, so i followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277639 and i managed to get the eu kdz with root (hex edited bin) on my phone so I will be able to unlock the bootloader, so after waiting half an hour as instructed, I typed the command adb reboot oem-unlock but the phone just booted normally and i didn't see the prompt for unlocking the bootloader, so i thought that maybe it was because i didn't have the T-Mobile radio installed, so I installed the recovery installer and clicked install recovery, and it said install successful, but when i hit reboot recovery it just booted normally and did not boot into recovery, and when going back into the app when the boot was completed i noticed that it said recovery not installed.
now just to make things easier with the whole mirrored mess, i thought that installing the touch drivers for my P769 might help, so i followed these instructions
enter the following commands but before you must put the v6.bin file to your external sd card it is in the downloaded files after you have put it to the root
of your external sd card enter the following commands
"cd c:\Android"
"adb shell"
"su" when you enter this go to your phone and accept the su request
"cat /sdcard/external_sd/v6.bin > /sys/devices/virtual/input/lge_touch/firmware"
after you entered the last command you need to close that command promt and open
another one and type the following commands
"cd c:\Android"
"adb shell"
"su"
"reboot" then it will reboot and the touch will corectly work remember the mirrored problem will continue
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but i guess that was meant only for the T-Mobile kdz and not for the EU one that i had installed because when i rebooted the phone the touch screen wasn't working at all.... so i thought just to flash back the original T-Mobile kdz and then flash the touch drivers again, but i couldn't change the usb mode to software mode since the touch screen isn't working, and when going into SW update mode by pressing vol up and connecting the usb, the update process stops at 15% saying my phone isn't connected...
so at this point i pretty much gave up in root i just want my phone to work normally again... :crying:
can someone please tell me what to do to get the touch working, or some other way to get back to the T-Mobie kdz?
THANKS:laugh:

How to fix partion problem !!!
After countlss hours of messing with the LG P769 This is how i got into S/W mode to work !:laugh:
ASSUMING you know how to install fastboot drivers there are instructions on the forum ...so follow those guide note fastboot drivers work best on windows 7 windows 8 was giving me hard time ...
1.install fastboot drivers
2.run lelus script at the same time hold vol+ button once the script shows the OMAP device close the script and immediately put the battery back in .The LG phone will boot into S/W mode !
Make sure you write down your imei or serial number AND make sure battery is fully charged . then
Now simply use the LG software tool or the KDZ offline flasher look around the forum for how to guides
Thats it

Sorry for reviving such an old thread, but oh well...
Your procedure doesn't seem to work with my device. Just to make sure we are using the same driver packages, can you post a link to the fastboot driver you have successfully used?
My L9 is always showing this "partition doesn't exist" error message, no matter what I try. Lelus's script seems to do the job and the phone is detected as a fastboot device, and can even be detected in LG Flash Tool (using a 910K cable), but flashing will stop after a little over 2 minutes, because the phone disconnects. During all of my attempts, the screen stays black.
Any hint?

Can you boot into recovery? We now have a custom recovery for locked bootloaders (and CM roms). If you can get into recovery, I would try some adb commands to mount the partitions.
No, no recovery. Just to make sure that I'm not doing it wrong, what is the key combination to boot to recovery?
I have also tried:
Code:
fastboot boot some_recovery_image.img
It says ok, but the phone just hangs at the black screen and becomes undetectable as a fastboot device, until I pull the battery. So, unless the some_recovery_image.img is unsuitable for my P760 (which may be!), there is something seriously wrong I think.
Or maybe I can try the same command with the custom recovery for bootloader locked phones... Where can I find it?

Your EMMC partition is wiped or fried... you really need a JTAG service or a Box like octopus because your L9 is Hard-bricked...
Thanks for your opinion. Yet, I still want to hear from others.
I'm running into more and more problems with the L9 as their me grows.
-Fastboot doesn't work under Windows 8.1 and 10, but under the now obsolete(for me) Windows 7, unlike my other devices, which are fine with Win 10.
-ADB seems to work, but requiring the device to be still able to boot.
-I always boot to recovery from within Android as long as the L9 ain't bricked. After a failed rom install, during which the sd card failed(could no longer write or be formatted afterwards, the last time stamps of files and folders were set during the failed install) I discovered a problem with TWRP(Artas182x's and Edwin's), which may have been present since a long time: Trying to invoke TWRP via keypress will brick the device!
So, if my P760 no longer boots, there's only download mode available, sort of the final line of defense.
-There's sort of a trick if even download mode fails: After a failed attempt unplug phone, force switch-off, if the phone is in brick state. Then switch on, force switch-off again, and only then attempt download mode again. And have patience while holding down the vol button, it might take up to 20 seconds for the phone to switch itself on into download mode. (A single forced powerdown will cause Fastboot NOT to work the next time)
But I'm absolutely clueless about the recovery issue, for now TWRP is semi-working, can only be accessed via Android, as long as the phone is fully working.
W/o Fastboot, I now have flashed stock rom several times and rooted it with Kingo rooter just to be able to run Flashify to install TWRP. If Flashify is the culprit for the TWRP issues, I could need a recommendation for a better working app.

Tried OMAP flasher ? It needs memory configuration file in order to work with our device
No, I didn't. I have sold the phone for spares.
Inviato dal mio LG-D855 utilizzando Tapatalk
I never needed the OMAP drivers and tools. As they are ancient, they will probably make even more problems with newer Windows versions.
I could by no means invoke Fastboot on this device with Windows 8.1 and 10, Seven worked. So you had to go for Download Mode instead to recover to stock rom, then root with the Kingo tool, then install TWRP via Rashr or Flashify, the most time consuming way to recover from the frequent bricks.
And the LG Flash Tool 2014 always needed several attempts to get the job done. The latest official recovery tool from LG works in D/L Mode, but will always download the rom image anew.

- How to install twrp :
Notice:
this install guide was originally written for the stylo 2 plus I'm not sure it will work on the stylo 2..
• BOOT INTO FASTBOOT MODE:
With your phone off, connect your usb cable to your phone while holding VOLUME DOWN to boot into fastboot mode or just type [adb reboot bootloader] in the adb terminal
• ONCE YOU ARE IN FASTBOOT MODE:
Open a command prompt and type "fastboot flash recovery <path_to_recovery.img>” without the quotation marks.
Example: fastboot flash recovery C:/Users/John/Desktop/recovery.img
[don't forget to extract the downloaded recovery zip to get the recovery.img]
• WHEN THE FLASH COMPLETES: (Takes about 2 seconds)
On your phone, unplug the usb cable and power it off by taking out the battery and putting it back in.
• BOOT INTO RECOVERY MODE FOR THE FIRST TIME
HOLD VOLUME DOWN + POWER until you see the LG logo and then temporarily release the POWER button, immediately pressing and holding it back down until you see the white prompt screen. You will NEVER release the volume down button in this process!
Use the hard keys to select "YES" and then "YES" again to boot into
TWRP recovery!
After the TWRP splash screen you will see the option to type in the password to decrypt the filesystem. Due to the password prompt and the touchscreen driver, you will not have any touchscreen functionality until your phone locks for inactivity. After it locks (ON ITS OWN) and the screen dims, you can unlock it normally and TWRP is fully functional.
Warning: use the [volume down + power] buttons combo only to boot into twrp for the first time after flash ! don't use it after that as it will wipe your device every time you try to use the buttons combo again to boot into twrp after the first time .
u have 2 methods to boot into twrp after the first boot:
1- u can use this app [root is required] :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stephansmolek.reboot&hl=en
2- or u can use adb command type [ adb reboot recovery ] in adb terminal to boot into twrp
DISABLE FORCED ENCRYPTION & ROOT IT!
1. In TWRP, go to Wipe > Format Data. Enter the keyword ‘yes‘, in the provided space and enter. This will wipe the automatically encrypted filesystem, and decrypt it.
2. Once the wiping is done, reboot back into recovery. Go to Reboot > Recovery.
3. When the recovery boots again, connect your phone to the PC and Enable MTP under the Mount section.
4. Transfer the downloaded ‘no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip’ and ‘SR1-SuperSU-v2.78-SR1-20160915123031.zip to your internal storage or EXTSD
5. Disconnect the device now.
6. Tap on Install. Now, navigate your phone’s storage and select ‘no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip’. Finally swipe the ‘Swipe to confirm Flash’ button on the bottom of the screen.
7. The flashing process will merely take a few seconds. And when it’s done, follow the same method to flash the root package – SR1-SuperSU-v2.78-SR1-20160915123031.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wait 1 or 2 minutes after the zip files are done flashing then reboot system and PROFIT! Your phone may take 3-5 minutes to boot the first time and it might boot-loop once or twice at the Metro PCS splash screen but don’t worry this is expected.
All required files [supersu+dm-verify disable] can be found in this thread :

Ah, I see that now...just downloaded it.
No luck so far though...have USB debugging and 'enable OEM unlock' checked, 'adb reboot bootloader' and 'reboot to bootloader' from recovery both just boot as normal and power off/volume down+plug in USB just gives the battery charging screen.
Edit: Just went back and read some old threads over again...looks like no one has been able to get to fastboot post ZV3
Is anyone actively trying to get this to work? This is my last hope for this phone. If I cant get it rooted I'm switching phones.

No
I have the VM version of the stylo 2. I got temp root at one point and tried to get full root via the terminal method but it didn't work and I have king root installed in the system but no root, Ive been trying this method but when I push the adb reboot boot loader command it reboots into the boot loader but I can't get any command to work after that. I launched the adb devices command and no device is listed, the only time the device is listed is when the phone is booted to the stock ROM. I'm currently downloading the lg bridge app in hopes it fixes this issue. I'm willing to do this because I have 3 VM variants of this phone all running zv3. Also my google apps are broke after attempting to achieve permanent root....I feel a Lil bummed about that lol
I spent a fair amount of time yesterday and today trying everything I could imagine to get to fastboot...nothing. Tried everything I could find for other LG models in case one worked...nope. Read every thread on every forum I could find that was posted to within the last 60 days. Pulled out the stylus and tried it all again (lol)...all the while being mocked by the cursed "Boost Zone" app icon.
Now I'm just trying to decide if I should pull my hair out, or punch myself in the nuts.

I don't even know what I did?
So I tried this. First when I tried to Unlock the bootloader but no matter what I tried it wouldn't work. It would always return with the error saying the command is unrecognized (I tried the old and new command to unlock the bootloader). So then I figured I might as well try and flash the recovery anyways. I tried flashing TWRP and it worked. It comes up with a screen that asking if I want to keep my system partition unmodified. Whether I choose to or not it has a bunch of error messages when I try to factory reset. I'm completely confused. I have TWRP but it seems I can't do anything with it. My phone isn't bricked either. I can still boot into android just fine.

Whether I choose to or not it has a bunch of error messages when I try to factory reset. I'm completely confused. I have TWRP but it seems I can't do anything with it. My phone isn't bricked either. I can still boot into android just fine.

Huh...flashed it with fastboot? If so, what mode was your phone in when you did it?

It reboots the phone into TWRP with the same message as the first time I booted to it (can see that in my post above)

So I figured out after many days of trying to flash a recovery through fastboot and didn't work, I found a way. This may work for zv4, zv5, and zv6 for I'm on zv3. Anywho I'll get started on what I did.
1) get some type of root (temp or perm)
2) download flashify from play store or Google
3) allow root access
4) open up flashify and choose recovery image
5) press choose image
6) locate where you downloaded your recovery
7) press on your image it will pop up a box click yup 8) it will flash, after the flash choose reboot now
9) for any reason you don't want to reboot right then but you want to later, go to flashify and click the 3 dots in the top right corner and press reboot recovery.
How do I get even temp root? I'm on zv6 if it matters.
