I hit a wall with this issue. After rooting and trying to install a new rom, I am getting the security error on the LG logo. I can access updater with vol+ and insert usb, but I am stuck on how to restore anything or access boot menu. Any suggestions? The computer no longer seems to be able to access the phone as a device via command prompt.
Thanks in advance!

I searched but could not decipher a clear way to fix the problem. This is what I did to fix it.
Open LG Mobile Update (Make sure you have internet on)
Input MEID (located behind battery)
Connect phone to computer via USB in S/W upgrade mode (Vol+ then insert USB)
Let LG download and install phone recovery
NOTE: Recovery stopped at 4% install, but just leave it alone, and it will install correctly. It never went past 4%
NOTE: This will return your phone to factory settings like the day you got it, so you will have to re-root if you use this method.
There may be a way to fix this without losing root, but this was the only way I could figure out.

It depends on your internet connection. The process should take about 1 to 3 hours.

My LG mobile updater stops just at the end of "checking phone settings" the bar at the bottom shows anywhere from 10 to 15 seconds and stops counting. I never see a %. Is it doing anything?

Do you have a download link for the updater that asks for the IMEI? My LG Mobile Updater only asks for phone model.
Also, am I supposed to be doing a regular software update or "upgrade recovery" option?

bro make sure you have unlocked bootloader if you haven't
check the android development forum you will get scripts to put phone in fastboot.
unlock the bootloader
flash CWM recovery
download nanadroid back up for your phone model. from general section.
copy it to ext sdcard, and restore your phone via cwm reovery.
LG's flashing software is just pain to use. use CWM to restore your L9/

Connect the phone without battery to computer and install fast boot drivers for omap chipset. Again check the dev section " how to install fast boot drivers"
Unlock the darn boot loader
Flash CWM recovery
Restore via nandroid back .
Offline flash method is bit completed and may not work every time
After trying to restore a nandroid backup via CWM, phone is hard-bricked. Sent to service, where they changed (mother)board.
Just for those, who lost their faith (in LG9) - when you see 'security error' on each boot (like I saw yesterday) after flashing CWM on not unlocked bootloader and, after stock ROM flashing, you see dead android with exclamation heart outside - it is normal, and it is still OK - thanks to bootloader being locked
- u can use any good method to flash stock ROM back - I have used this program combined with official LG Mobile Supprt Tool
- I have turned phone off (by battery removing for a moment)
- kept Volume up pressed when connecting to USB - I had no message that any phone is connected - I didn't bother
- flashed stock (20o in my case)
- saw 'dead' android with its exclamation heart outside - bothered for a moment
- removed battery to restart phone
- I have found that all is working :laugh: back
- rooted with Kingo in a minute
- then a step u can omit - I passed the whole procedure again, as I'm faster then smarter
All done with W8/64-bit and my 10cm nokia usb cable, which I found the best in flashing when some longer or 'filtered' cables do not see the phone
I recently switched phones(both same model optimus fuel due to loose heaphone connection) long story short all my info is on 1st phone(important texts/phone numbers) I only have one battery to share between the two phones(wasn't huge deal!) I could just put battery back in my old phone if I needed info from an old text ect! today I put battery back in and tried to turn it on all it does is blink on and off the screen with Lg logo and security error comes up(won't go anywhere else??) can't understand how all of a sudden this happened sitting around with no battery in it nor was it jarred gotten wet ect?? any help appreciated call or text me at(814)493-7199 Jim thanks

Can someone answer what flashing does NOT mean.
1) It does NOT wipe your user data, correct?
2) It means fix the OS to make the phone start up (without affecting user data), correct?
3) I see people give advice to flash or use S/w recovery tool. But I need confirmation that it doesnt factory wipe or delete user data.
4) Or please tell me what method I should do to preserve the internal SD card, or harvest it, or if there is a way to connect the cord in a certain [phone mode] so I can download the data from a phone that wont start (logo loop).
Thanks.
Oh, you cited me and if u mean LG L9 - I do not remember exactly now, it was a short adventure. There is no general answer to your questions 1 - 3, it depends on the data organization in the system. As far as I remember it was OK for the given procedure, but not for sure . maybe someone else can help. And good but too late for you advice is to make copies of all important data and settings before u try to change anything in your system.

Alright, so here's my problem:
I just upgraded to the Galaxy S III yesterday, and today decided to try to 'root' the device. So I found the Toolkit here on XDA (from here), and went through the initial steps without any issues (driver installation, device recognition, etc..).
I then went to the 'rooting option' menu, where I selected the first--and most basic --option, which was to only install Super User, and the push the permissions.
I was following the automated guide, opened Odin, selected the correct file, 'boot-insecure-i9300xxale8-gsm.tar', and made sure only 'auto-restart' and F.reset time' were checked, and clicked 'start'. The flash appeared to have gone well, but when it tried to restart, the phone never rebooted. I attempted to reboot into download mode (Vol. Down + Home + Power), but the device was unresponsive. I then browsed around the forums a bit looking for other methods, including taking the battery out for several minutes, then putting it back in whilst holding down the 'download mode' button combination, and other various variations of that method; yet again, none prevailed.
The device gives no indicator lights when plugged in, no light up when the power button is held down, and is overall seemingly unresponsive. However, when I hold down the 'home' button alone - after about 30 seconds - a green vertical battery appears on the screen, with a little white loading indicator on it, but vanishes after about 5 seconds or so, and the device becomes unresponsive once more.
The device is not being recognized by my computer whatsoever, no beeps or anything when plugged in.
Any ideas as to what I can do?
EDIT: I have been able to get into 'Download mode' somehow, but after trying to reflash the stock rom, it went back to the 'Unresponsive' mode. I have it in Download mode again currently, so what do I do from here?
I assume it is still under warranty, since it is less than a few days old. Return it to the store claiming hardware malfunctioning.
Forget about the toolkit. In my opinion, it's quite useless (as you know by now), and it tends to automate tasks that are simple by nature.
Even although I appreciate the effort the developers of the toolkit put into it, I would never do it, since I want to have control of the entire process: I want to know exactly what is being done and why, and that is something the Toolkit won't give me.
If you want to root your phone and keep it stock, do this:
- Install the drivers for the device.
- Install SiyahKernel for S3 version 1.3 using ODIN.
- Install superSU (from market) and let it update it's binary su
- Install MobileOdin (free version)
- download the latest Samsung ROM (such as DBT [Germany] or ITV [Italy]) using CheckFus downloader
- copy the downloaded and unzipped ROM to your phone's external SD card (just the .md5 file)
- using MobileODIN, flash the ROM and select the "EverRoot" feature
- after reboot the ROM will be updated, stock, but with root
- Install TriangleAway to get rid of any annoying triangles and to reset the binary counter
Done. supposing the ROM is already downloaded, the entire process takes exactly 4 minutes.

Thank you so much for responding!
I have the phone in download mode right now though, as I've been able to get that far. Is there anything I can do from here to fix the issue? I really don't want to take it back up, and face the chance of confrontation if they decided to call me out on the issue.
I tried flashing the Sinyah Kernel via Odin just now, using the PDA mode, but once again, just flashes the Samsung logo for a brief second, and disappears, leaving me with a black screen.
Samsung don't seem to really care if you have rooted or not, so far about 4 people in 2 days on this and other for mums have returned phones because they have possibly bricked them, all got them exchanged with out a problem.
To unroot and return your galaxy S3 to stock for warranty watch this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8Tga_yKywc&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Flash a stock rom for your phone and location or if it was a branded phone flash that .
Even if it does not boot you stand a better chance under warranty .
Say you where doing a Kies update and it just failed to reboot .

I tried to reboot the stock firmware 'boot-stock-i9300xxale8-gsm.tar', but when Odin failed to reboot the phone, and I manually put it back into download mode, it still said my binary was 'Custom'.
Should I be trying to flash that under 'Bootloader' in Odin or something? Because I've been doing 'PDA' and it hasn't been working.
Download an original, stock ROM from samsung-updates.com or use checkFus downloader.
That is what you'll flash.
This is the one I use: http://samsung-updates.com/get/1932/Samsung_Firmware_GT-I9300_DBT_I9300XXALF6_Android_4_0_4.html
After some further browsing, I was able to fix it thanks to this post here, posted by 'mskip'.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...oolbox-android-one-toolkit-one-click-t3030165
Yes, I tried. Its not working.
Is there any other way. I am desperate. It doesnt allow to move the Apps to SD card. There is no way. Locked in 4GB
I have a z820 in need of root as well. I've tried everything, including the link up there, and so far.....nope. Nothing. No apps to SD for me either.
Zte can't root for ****!!!!
I'm so mad because I really tried everything even a computer won't let me tried everything there to like why would the make a zte that can't even move your games or pictures or music to your SD card knowing danm well everybody gone need like we only got 4g that's nothing so what are we so posted to do delete stuff that we like.to trade for the other that we really don't need **** I'm pissed right now I know y'all are to but if anybody finds something please send me the info or con me by [email protected] thank you:good:
Needs update
This Phone really needs an update, it reboots and sucks, we can't even get into fastboot or anything to try to unlock the bootloader someone needs to make this possible because who in the hell uses only 4gb of storage, apps are so big and you can only download like 3 apps then you have to get rid of something if you want another app and its dumb so please someone..HELP US :crying:
Throwing my post up here so I can follow. Need root bad on this thing. I am using lite versions of every app. Lol
Same problem w/ ZTE obsidian..tCan't move to SD card. Anybody figure somethcing out yet?
I've gotten Kingroot to attempt to root it once and the results varied. Usually got 16% but the highest was almost 30% but I can't even get kingroot to even root it anymore.
The phone is not going into fastboot at all. I think the bootloader is locked. The phone will never be rooted.
I might of found a way, but it's untested so, proceed at your own risk, I am not responsible if your phone becomes bricked.
Enable developer mode and tick "OEM Unlocking" in the developer menu
Download SuperSU update zip from Chainfire's site and put it on your sdcard (internal won't work)
Power off your phone and hold power and volume up
Select recovery, wait for the android with the lid open to show up
Hold power and volume up for a couple seconds and let go
A menu should pop up, if not try again until it does
Select "update from sdcard"
Select the SuperSU zip
Let it flash the zip (shouldn't take long)
Choose reboot
See if SuperSU is installed and test that it works
Again, this is untested and would need a couple of people testing it to make sure it works flawlessly, so if this worked, please post that it did.
Nope. Thank you though.

You have to hold down power and vol up for like 2 seconds when you get to the dead android, then you'll get the recovery menu.
When I try to install the update package, I get 'opening update package' followed after less than a second by 'installation aborted'.
I powered down from the Developer Options screen with OEM unlock turned on when trying to update - it appears to turn off during boot as it is off again on restart.
Any suggestions? I looked at the logs that are visible from the recovery screen but they did not seem to have anything useful. Are there logs I can retrieve via ADB to see what the issue is?
My phone has build B18.

OEM Unlocking is always on for me even after restarts but I haven't tried to flash SuperSU yet. You might wanna get a logcat while doing it and post it here to see if anyone knows what the problem is. I have an older build of the phone (B03) but I dunno if it matters or not.
EDIT: Also every new Kingroot build allows you to attempt to root it for like 2 days and then it just can't for some reason but the thing with 18% still happens.

The logcat I am familiar with is in ADB. The only way I can find to access the phone from recovery with ADB is to select the flash from ADB option, which puts the phone in sideload mode where you can't pull data off. I was unsure if trying to load the ZIP that way would brick the phone so I haven't tried it.
I also tried using Fastboot and it doesn't recognize the phone at any time.
Is there another way to capture what is happening with the update?
I tried selecting restart in bootloader from the recovery menu with the phone connected to the PC. It stayed at the ZTE splash screen for over 10 minutes but neither fastboot nor ADB was able to communicate with it. I tried various key combinations without effect and finally ended up pulling the battery. Maybe it just froze up during boot for some reason.
I have tried every one-touch root I can find, none of them work. All the manual guides start with unlocking the bootloader - which I can't find any info on for this model. Based on the partition info, it's definitely locked: it has 27 (!) partitions including names like seccfg and oemkeystore. Is this normal for a lollipop device?
I recently rooted my Lg G stylo (Metro). I was messing around with the Clockwork Mod Recovery. Long story short, I had to reboot into recovery but I keep getting a "Secure Booting Error" "Error code 1003". It keeps restarting over and over again and the same message keeps popping up. The screen doesn't pass the logo, it just shuts down after the error message shows up. repeat
There is no way to access the homescreen or anything. I trying to factory reset by holding the VOLUME DOWN + POWER KEY. It works. I get a menu that says Perform a factory reset , [Yes/NO]. When i click yes, the reset begins but after a while it shuts down and continues to repeat the same message. "Secure booting Error". "Error Code 1003". I have also been able to acces download mode where the screen would say firmware update/Usb. But idk what to do after that. Im pretty sure its not bricked since it still turns on.
Did you unlock the bootloader before you rooted or did you use one-click rooting apps to root your phone?
I have the same problem

i have the same problem
As a new owner of an LG G Stylo MS631 (the Metro PCS model) I had the same issue just yesterday when working with GameTheory's Katana ROM and he pointed out that when the Secure Booting Error Code 1003 shows up it's because you have to go into the Developer Options (tap the build version 7 times under Settings - About phone - Software Info, back out two steps and then find the new setting just above About phone) and check the box next to "Enable OEM unlock" - this doesn't unlock the bootloader but it does allow you to use tools like TWRP without hassles or some of the reboot to recovery apps.
If you're getting the error and you can't get past it in any respect, you're going to need to flash the factory KDZ to get it truly useful again. That's what I ended up doing because there simply was no other way to get recovery or anything else working.
Flash the KDZ back to pure stock, go into the Developer Options and enable that option (Enable OEM unlock) and then go about rooting/flashing TWRP/etc.
Good luck...
FIXED

Did you get a answer? Also where can I find the kdz file?
Hello, I just soft brick my MS631 this morning. I had the phone rooted perfectly fine withthe katana ROM. Then, I stupidly use the reboot recovery option that is baked into the ROM withough developer options enabled and OEM chec (I forgot). Now, I get the looping Secure Booting Error 1003. If, I do the factory reset step (hold power and vol down) I get to the factory reset options, but when I select YES, it'll go through the loop again. HELP please, as I A) cant afford another phone right now and B) don't want to go back using my Windows 640 LTE phone with MetroPCS.

I did a similar thing. Go to HERE and follow GameTheory's unbrick guide. If you have problems downloading the KDZ like I did, then try getting it HERE
I actually did GT steps right after this post. Im now back on Katana and learned from my mistakes lol
I accidentally used king root without developer mode enabled
I also bricked my phone to the point of it being unusable. I am running on boost mobile and I am using android marshmallow 6.0. My phone said it was rooted after using the 1 Click root app and I went to start it and it now says 'security ERROR MODDED 1003'. I am stressed out at this point and I have reset it via developer menu about 3 times to no avail. I am familiar with rooting and roms but I'm not really used to using code. I'm stock everything and I am running on Boost mobile. If anyone can find a boost rom for me to use it may be possible to put my phone in download mode. I do have an sd card if it is needed to load a zip on. Please help me get my phone booted again! I believe a sprint KDZ may work but I can not find one for download anywhere. Thanks !
This may happened to me too. I am on the Boost version as well. I used the king root app to root the phone then I tried to install the adaway app. When the app told me to reboot the phone, I clicked okay but I hit the secure bootloop. I didn't even try to install a recovery. How do I fix this?!?!?!

What if you cant get the phone to do anything outside of the boot loop?

I wish I could offer some help but I haven't owned an LG Stylo since I made that post - I literally sold that one the following day. Hopefully someone else might be able to provide some assistance.

Sorry for the bump on this thread. I followed the unbrick guide mentioned here, and all seems like a GO... except a lost service. Screen Lock says "No Service", but I am receiving text messages from contacts.
lg ls770 (boost)
Lg stylo ls770 boost
My stylo is showing the same error 1003 and on bootloop. Can someone help me figure out where to go to get the fIles to restore it back to stock.
PM or email me if you can help TIA

the issue im running into using the tutorial to flash the metro kdz is it says it got disconnected from the server. any ideas?
I rooted my Tmobile LG k330 using kingroot and then unistalled it and replaced it with superuser. A couple weeks after, my camera stopped working and I couldnt even access my gallery at first. Wait.. It gets better. My sms starts continually alerting me that it has stopped and I had to use titanium pro to freeze the app so it would stop flashing . Eventually I uninstalled it and installed a non stock version from the playstore. All well and good but I have tried every trick out there on how to get my camera to start working again but every technique out there never worked for me. First off, superuser stops working and says that I have no bootlaoder on my mobile and the site it sends me to is of no use and is confusing to figure out how I lost booloader in the first place. Back to my camera.. So it says that it is unable to work even with other playstore camera apps bc another app was using camera but no matter what forum advice out there tells me to do to find out what maliscious app could be the culprit and even through process of elemination tactics using safety mode I cant locate the real issue. My software update wont update. It goes to restart and as its almost half way through installing it reads error and freezes so that I cant even do a hard reset. Im at the end of my ropes and dont know what to do. No factory reset bc of uninstalled stock with no back up. Cant I somehow reinstall stock apps from lollipop through a particular site? I would would wipe everything on my mobile just to return it to its original function. Is there a way to flash an LG Software system with the same original bootloader and stock apps thatI originally had on my phone
Hello, Damian0402.
I do not know what to say in regards to the camera / SMS suddenly not functioning. I'd assume that means you tampered with them or perhaps something else you installed tampered with them at some point (although that's moot at this point and really no sense in discussing it, unless it happens again).
Flashing the phone to factory stock:
I'd suggest you visit this link, download the image for your phone ("K330" f / h / i / j / k / L -- Which?): https://mega.nz/#F!sdwRDLbZ!yPOiRPv5QJS_9I4hzL4ptQ!YBRwWazA
You need to look up exactly what K330 image you need to flash with. I use MetroPCS and is listed as "m" in the software under "About" in my phone, but I actually run the "MS330 10i" shown in that website. Try Googling everything about your device.
Tool to use:
I can not say beyond a doubt that this will function with a T-Mobile version, but I have no reason to doubt it!
You can use the "LG UP" software to flash the stock ROM firmware (found at that link; The KDZ file is ~1GB or more).
You'll want to download the Lab v1.10 version of LG UP: https://www.mylgphones.com/download-lg-up-software
On the right panel, you'll see "LG USB drivers" hyperlink. This'll ensure you have the proper drivers.
Initiating "download mode":
Power down your device completely. Press and hold the "VOLUME UP" key; While holding the VOLUME UP KEY: Insert the USB cable (it should already be attached to the PC).
The phone will automatically power on and the "DOWNLOAD MODE" image should appear, nearly instantly. After this appears: Release the VOLUME UP key.
You should be able to place the phone down and run the LG UP software. You need to select "UPGRADE" (not "refurbished"), then locate the KDZ file (bottom right corner of the program is a vertical "3-dot" image; Used to navigate to your *.kdz file).
Merely hit "START" and wait about ~300s (~5m). The phone will reboot itself. You can exit the program at this point by pressing "Exit."
That's all.
Regarding Kingroot / Kingoroot:
I'm not entirely sure I trust those "one-click-root" programs. There's nothing harmful about them, however: You should be informed that you can root your own phone WITHOUT those programs!
Tools you'll need and use:
TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project)
SuperSU (SuperUser; The same type program Kingroot/KingOroot install)
ADB (Android Debug-bridge -- Which Kingroot uses remotely I suspect)
This is a thread I wrote last night; I use the MetroPCS variant, but the steps are identical: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k7/how-to/guide-lg-k7-ms330-concise-tutorial-t3722050
You should be able to use the TWRP listed in the forum post (LG K7 (M1)). You might want to NOT erase/flash recovery partition first. Just live-boot it. If it works: Great! Decide if you want to flash it.
I hope this solves your issues! Also: TWRP / ADB can be used to create a FULL backup directly on your PC without using the phone's internal memory or external memory at all. Which is awesome if you have an 8GB (uncompressed) backup file to make.
My two cents: Rooting the phone yourself with ADB/TWRP/SuperSU is a very fun, interactive and easy process!
Oh guys, I badly need your experties. Just as I have in the title, I have a rooted Meizu M5 Note. I rooted the phone believing that I can do much more if it is rooted. But in 6 months of trying to understand what I can do with this said rooted phone, I realized now that there are not much to do with it... Probably because of the brand, so I decided to unroot
The rooting process was from here: giving me error so if requested, i'll give the link.
I have an Android build 7.0.0.0
So here is my issue:
In the same site, I found that I can unroot.. yes, UNROOT the rooted model of phone using superSU by going to its Settings and clicking unroot (or Unroot all something..). It took a bit while, so I decided to restart the device. Yes, while SuperSU was trying to unroot my phone.
Upon restart, it now could not boot.
I allowed 30 minutes, the screen only shows Flyme logo with a spinning circle. So from here, I made up my mind to perform the factory reset/restore:
Turned off Phone > Press and hold Power key + Volume Up... until I reach the screen with options to:
-Update system.
-Wipe data.
I selected Wipe data, for it will reset the system settings. It will now show the
"Wiping data.
Please dont turn off the phone, or it may fail to boot"
It will only last for 2 seconds - and will then again reboot and stop in Flyme logo with a never ending spin below.
_________________
It was already the factory reset, which I thought should help, but it wont work.
_________________
Things I tried:
- Used ADB to flash an offcial update rom from the flymeos.com, but the ADB Flashtool would not read the device because the USB Debugging is turned OFF.
- Googling any possible solutions, but cannot find any - nor any known programs that will allow me to read the not booting phone.
- Fast boot or safe mode, which only wont proceed.
- The Recovery Menu (the un-clickable one) must be locked by the manufacturer.
Can anyone please tell me:
- Is there anyway I can access the phone's drive so I can put the Update zip folder, which will help me to use the 1st recovery option "Update system"??
- Do you have any software that can help me enable the USB debugging when the phone wont boot at all??
Thanks guys..
All the help I can get will be best appreciated.
I tried posting this to forum.FlymeOS, but no one seems to have any interest on helping.
It is now you, that i think can help.
This is my Only phone, and cant afford to lose it...
Same issue with my Meizu M5 Note. I tried a tutorial on how to unlock it's bootloader. But after going through the first step, the SP Flash tool showed some error on how it does not turn on our go recover mode or anything... In really sad
Somebody please help!
