LG L9 P760 Softbrick - no way to flash etc. - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

I have very big problem with my LG L9. Firts, I unlocked bootloader and rooted phone with some kind of method, everything was working great, until I flashed PACman rom. Internal space was decreasing to the moment when it reached 612kb, so I wanted to flash another Rom. And from this moment I have problems.
First of all, I downloaded rom, for example PolishBlood from Original Android Development.
I entered Clockworkmod (6.0.3.1), wiped all data / factory reset, dalvik cache. Did everything like in tutorials. Then, clicked install rom from sd card and pick "choose zip from external sdcard", cause this option was working when I was installing PACman. And here I have problem: E:Can't mount /external_sd/. I read couple of tuts, and best, and I think only option was/ still is guide from this thread: [GUIDE] [UNBRICK][ROOT] FLASH Any LG Factory ROM (kdz) WITH OFFLINE FIX
But here, I have problem too. flashing process stopping at 15%, and telling me that cable/cellphone is disconnected.

I think I have all drivers installed, I'm doing everything step by step like in tutorial, except enter in LG software mode, cause I don't have any rom.
So for now, I can only enter ClockworkMod and S/W Upgrade mode. Please help, cause for now I have Nokia 3120 ;/

Do online kdz flashing using lg mobile support tool. Download it and connect in S/W upgrade mode . It will detect your phone , then upgrade to latest version. Its online method so make sure u remove those two lines from host file which v use for offline flashing. This should work

Thanks a lot. It was simple, why I didnt think about that? Problem solved.

[Q] Device ROM/Soft Bricked problem! Help!

I've spent some time researching how to root my phone for quite awhile now because there was almost no guide for my phone to be rooted. I have a Samsung Galaxy Admire 4G (Model SCH-R820) connected to MetroPCS with a 16 GB external SD card inserted. Also it had Android 2.3.6 installed on it. With some hard research I finally found a forum that I followed to root my device.
The forum actually did help to root my phone which I couldn't believe. :laugh: I installed the .apk file with File Explorer and installed Framaroot, then I opened the app and I rooted with SuperSU as instructed in the forum. The whole process was successful and I downloaded a app to determined if my phone was really rooted which later said positive that my phone was rooted. After less than 2 hours of my phone being rooted and having fun with it, I saw thing about custom roms and I liked the ideas of installing a custom rom. I installed a app called "Rom Manger" and it said I needed ClockWorkMod Recovery or ClockWorkMod to be installed to be able to get the custom rom. My device was NOT supported and taped the unsupported device selection and it prompt me to say if I had ClockWorkMod Recovery MANUALLY installed. I didn't know what that mean't and selected "YES" which I would regret later on. I then selected "Backup Current ROM" and it restarted my phone but I don't know where if the backup was place on my internal memory or SD card (I THINK IT DID NOT DO A BACKUP). I went onto my computer to get a custom ROM and tried to install it into my phone using Odin v1.87 when my phone was i guess in "download" mode. (When you hold a few buttons and it prompts you about a warning on installing custom OS).
Just when I saw it fail to install, I realized that I installed the WRONG ROM to my device! (THE CUSTOM ROM WAS FOR A DIFFERENT DEVICE). :crying: When I restarted my phone it was stuck on the Samsung Boot Screen and it would not boot the Android OS and would get stuck on the Boot Screen whenever I would restart my phone. I tried Wiping Cache, Wiping Data/Factory Reset, and Rebooting my device and the same problem would persist. Also the app "Rom Manger" didn't seem to install ClockWorkMod Recovery because I'm only able to do Stock Android System Recovery and "Download" mode to my device.
The thing I think I can do is get a stock ROM for my Samsung Device and reflash it with Odin but whenever I research the ROM for my device I can't seem to find one EVEN on this site. (TRUST ME I DID LONG RESEARCH TO FIND ONE). My brother has the SAME EXACT PHONE and I was hoping if I rooted my bro's phone and do a backup on my bro's ROM with a different app (NOT ROM MANGER) and get the back up on my computer and use it on Odin to reflash MY PHONE'S ROM would it fix my BootLooped/Softed Bricked phone?????OR any ideas on how to get my phone back working OR do I need to buy a new phone if all possible solution fails?
One more thing...I think ClockWorkMod is NOT Safe for my device so if I really need to install it on either phones please tell! :good:
This is how it looks when in download mode (Sorry For The Huge Picture):

Now, i am stuck in the boot animation, i already tried everything, i have a backup of my ROM (i can share it i anyone needs to see it) and i flash it with SP flash tools (even having the problem of the phone connecting and disconnecting when it is without the battery), and even when i get to flash it and reach the green circle nothing changes, i keep stuck in the boot animation (i have tryed to flash another ROM too (h**p://***.needrom.com/download/hdc-s5-g900h-6592-2g-16g-2014 without any success).
Even creating a personalized CMW recovery hasn't worked, MTK droid tools warns in that case that the recovery doesn't suit the device.
I was able to create one CMW recovery and flash it, but when i try to flash the backup of my ROM always aborts installation, stock recovery also aborts installations every time.
I am running out of options and ideias, anyone has a ideia what can be the problem? can anyone help me please?
P.S. I have made a factory reset through recovery (don't think that's the source of the problem) and problem started when i installed xposed framework apk.
Thanks in advance and regards.

[Q] p769 bootloop, can't go into CMW mode

My p769 was unlocked bootloader and installed NamelessRom with CMW 6.0.4.5.
I installed Rashr app from PlayStore to install CMW 6.0.4.8. I followed and used files from
p769-recoveries-p769-mirror-issues-t2879854
After installation, the device rebooted. But LG logo shown less than 1 second, and the keep rebooting again again. I tried to go to CMW mode or hard reset, but it doesn't work, just bootlooping very quickly.
I followed a tutorial, FLASH Any LG L9 Factory ROM (kdz) WITH OFFLINE FIX but,

Drivers installed correctly and followed the instruction correctly. Even my device can't go into CWM mode, I can turn it into S/W upgrade mode. But as shown in the picture, there is a connection problem. I tried this using two different computers, but same problem.
I also tried to re-install CMW using fastboot. Used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119090 tutorial, but stuck at
If I put in battery, the device turn on and start bootlooping. (LG logo is disappear very quick). Run the fastboot again, and tried to this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43969494&postcount=95 but I same problem. cmd window shows <waiting for device> and there is gray color of LG logo in the device screen. After a few minutes, device rebooted automatically and the bootlooping. No flashing job processed.
So, my p769 is totally dead? Anything I can try to do?
Nevermind

Solved the problem.
I used LG FlashTool and could flash it to normal stock rom. Now it boots OK, and works OK.
Used Unbrick/Unroot/Flash ANY (P769, MS769, P760) in Download Mode tutorial,
but had some problem with files that I made and / or come with package.
So used files that BajoPrimate uploaded. Flashed successfully.
Thanks sammyz, BajoPrimate

[Q] Fixing phone for friend.

Been a while since I have done this.
Sprint HTC EVO 4G / apx325c
Kept shutting off.
Now will not start OS/ROM
Has TWRP v2.8.02. (Which from what I have been reading, isn't for this phone so IDK what to do there.)
Trying to trouble shoot, says No OS Installed.
Tried using restore, says complete, reboot, no os installed.
I want to put a stock rom back on this phone. I am downloading one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Evo/ROMs#Stock_ROMs
OTA Update #14 5.07.651.6 2.15.00.01.15 N/A Gingerbread 2.3.5 18 February 2013 Yes
Is the TWRP verion correct or did someone install one that was for another phone and it just happen to work?
Hi,
I moved this to the correct section.
Im sorry I don't understand the difference between the two sections as I don't know much about the phone.

Downloaded the rom. Used install to flash it. Didn't work :/
First, the phone you're trying to fix is the HTC EVO 4G LTE (aka Jewel). The ROM's you're trying to flash are for the HTC EVO 4G (aka Supersonic). You need to find a ROM based on the new partition layout and flash it to the phone. Afterwards, I suggest making a backup to prevent such issues from happening again. Just take a look at either Development or Original Development for a ROM based off the NPL.
Thanks.
I am working with cpt throwback in correcting this issue in the IRC.
Once I get the correct TWRP installed back I will flash a rom. Don't know which yet.
So I found the rom I need. It's a stock rooted one from cpt throwbacks thread.
I updated TWRP to his latest version.
Attempting to flash rom and it says successful but throws error for mounting cache.
Have v2.8.1.0 of TWRP
Finish flash and says reboot, no os installed.
Is that version of TWRP for the new partition layout?
Post a link to the ROM you were trying to install.

DL ROM and his latest TWRP from there
Last night I sat the phone down while it was in TWRP and left it. Came back a while later and started messing with it again and could mount cache. IDK what is going on with this dang thing.
Attempted to flash but get an error zip signiture verification failed so I went to sleep leaving the phone on in TWRP.
This morning I re-downloaded the ROM. Verified the MD5 and placed on phone. Attempted flash, it worked but seen error for not able to mount system.
Restarted the phone and it booted to the ROM I flashed and everything seems to be functioning on the phone.
Currently attempting to fetch recovery.log. http://pastebin.com/AYLTHpjT
phone seems to be having a problem, keeps turning off. Not shutting down but just OFF.
When plugged in USB it has this issue the most so I assume that the USB connector on the MB is shorting.
I will be returning this phone to its owner as it is working as far as I can get it to.
Thanks to everyone for their help.

Question Unable to boot, can I recover?

Hi!
I tried to install this rom to this device. I put it into fastboot mode, booted twrp from there, copied the rom zip to the root, and installed without problems. Then I wiped Dalvik and tried to restart the phone, only to boot into twrp again (twrp was already installed I think, this version: 3.7.0_12-RedmiK40Pro+_v6.7_A13). The original system I think was the factory 13.03 Android.
Now the folders on the phone seem different in the twrp browser, and I cannot seem to locate the zip file of the rom to reinstall. Internal storage shows size to be 0M. Maybe this was the mistake, but in an attempt to fix things, I changed the Slot to slot B, which was successful, but only booted into fastboot. Then, when I tried switching back to Slot A again, it gave errors for not being able to mount certain partitions, as seen in this image:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I then tried to copy the rom to a pendrive and install it from there, but it showed a similar error. When connecting the device to the computer, it shows up, but I cannot open it in a file explorer. Unfortunately I did not make any backups beforehand. Do you think there is a chance of bringing this device back to life again? It was given to me with instructions, because I'm a "computer person" and I thought it would be an easy process as I have done this my phones many times without problem. What could be the issue? If you need me to include any logs, or photos of the errors, let me know. I'm really worried that I might have bricked this device. Thank you for your help!
