Hello,
I got a LG L9 P760 a few days ago, i did an OTA update to 4.1.2, everything went ok.
Then rooted the phone, everything ok again.
Then i tried to unlock bootloader and install multiple ROMS and at a certain moment, when my phone started, everything was blue-ish.
The LG logo at the start and the Software mode text/images are in normal color, but the CWM recovery and the ROM is in a blue-ish color .
I tried to install multiple ROMS, using the "30 minute unfreeze smth" guide and even tried to install the original ROM through LG Suite, multiple times.
Nothing works, the display is still blue. The touch works, every function works, the display is ok, i had it tested at a service, but i don't know what to do.
I was hoping for some advice.
As even the recovery is looking weird, can it be more then the ROM? If the LG logo at the start and the Software mode is in normal color, can I assume there is nothing hardware?
I could use any advice.
I am willing to try anything, reset everything on it.

My Optimus One has a black screen after a failed flash. I bought the phone in Hong Kong and cannot return it because I am back in the U.S. I will be returning to Hong Kong in a few months, so if anyone knows Broadway's (the electronics shop) warranty I would be grateful.
This is what happened leading up to the brick:
- Tried flashing Prime v2.
- After flash, didn't like the ROM, wanted to go back to AmberHome.
- I didn't have AmberHome on the SD card.
- I had made a backup of all my data when I was in AmberHome before I flashed Prime.
- I restored.
- Stuck on Android logo.
- Wiped all data, restored again.
- Stuck on LG logo.
- KDZ updater, phone in emergency mode, flash TYPE on EMERGENCY, flashed V10a (phone came with V10a)
- Mid flash, there was interruption.
- Tried flashing again, KDZ in CSEMERGENCY (phone still in EMERGENCY mode)
- Failed, repeated flash about 6 times.
- Kept failing.
- Tried turning off phone, then booting back up in Emergency mode again, hoping it would fix something.
- Phone won't turn on.
Isn't KDZ file corrupted?
I don't know. It just won't turn on. Any ideas?
Hi I have the same problem with my Optimus One.
After trying to back up original rom I can not get past the initial black screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What I don't get is why the phone stayed on in Emergency Mode and then didn't turn back on after trying to reboot back into Emergency Mode.
So, anyone got any answers, anything new?
Progress
I have made some progress.
After hours of research I am trying to fix through kdz updater.
My main problem is that only my Ubuntu box can connect to the net.
I have been trying to do it through virtual box but I just cannot get the software to see the phone.
Now I have copied the files to my old xp laptop. Surprisingly it still cannot find the phone.
I am going try to download drivers and manually install them on xp.
I will let you know how things are going. However I am bit flat out today so progress may be slow.
All the info on the forums has been very helpful, still if anyone can add something it would be great.
Well it was worth the effort. Lg Optimus One came back without losing anything.
All I had to do was re-root. Too easy with Z4root.
Anyway I had to download drivers elsewhere, load on to xp laptop disable lg modem driver in device manager, and just sit back and let it do it's thing.
At first I thought it failed as at the end an error message came up however it rebooted fine. Thanks for all the suggestions.
Were you stuck on LG logo or total black screen, no power, dead?
Just stuck on lg screen.
I am new to working with android but it must have had something to do with the boot sector.
Not sure what to do if no power.
I bought a Lg f6 Metro PCS version a few weeks ago. I rooted it with Kingo Root, flashed the freedom kernel on it, created an adb with my laptop, Titanium backup, ROM installer, ROM Light, SuperSu, etc. Created a permanent Clockwork recovery and had also flashed the Experion custom rom on it. Up until then the phone was running great no problems. Tuesday night I tried to upgrade to a different version of Android the phone has 4.1.2 on it. I downloaded 5 zip files from the internet. Transfered them to the external sdcard flashed the first one it was fine. Then I flashed a radio zip and the phone went into reboot mode. The phone became soft bricked stayed at the LG icon nothing else. I then flashed the Experion custom rom again and the phone rebooted and came out of soft brick mode. Booted the rom back into normal mode. Here is the issue I lost stock rom on the phone, baseline is unknown now, and the phone's identity imei and everything else that comes up on the screen in the settings menu is blank. Other things were lost like keyboard and the dialer pad, phone is working but I think it might be bugged some way. Is there a way the original Android rom can be put back on the phone and all the above mentioned things be restored. I have already bought a new phone. I want to see if I can fix it before I decide to just scrap it. Are there any shops or professional services that specialize in Android software recovery/programing.
P.s I have tried flashing every stock rom, kdz, and the such on my own no such luck the little Android icon on custom recovery just goes into error state.
Thanks!
So I was having so many issues with my rooted phone crashing on jasmineRom 7.0 I thought maybe an OTA update had made it through and started downloading. No matter what I was doing the screen would turn blue and then restart. Sometimes it would crash blue again during reboot, and sometimes it would crash and then show the green demigod crash screen. So I researched flashing the .tot files to go back to stock. KDZ I didn't care for because it still showed the phone as modified software, and I wanted full stock so I could use the extended warranty with Verizon if need be. I eventually got the .tot method to work and everything was hunky dory, and showing stock. I upgraded all the way to marshmallow and decided I love every bit of it, but I couldn't figure out how to get my contacts and stuff off titanium backup without root. So I figured, "well roots not the problem if an OTA tried to download it just means I missed a setting or something". So I rooted again. No issues, I reinstalled JasmineRom 9.1 this time. Eventually it started crashing again, although this time I followed absolutely every guide I could find on disabling OTA. So I thought, "Great it's Jasmine" and I really wanted Marshmallow anyway so I followed xdabbeb's guide for getting the 35b bootstack on my phone, worked great no issues, and then I installed xdabbeb's firmware, combined with Edor's debloating zips. Everything was working great! I had no issues, I backed up just my apps, and some data, and reinstalled others and everything was great and working fine, and the phone was still official, no OTA's getting through. That was almost a full week ago. Yesterday I woke up and the phone wouldn't turn on. I took the battery out and put it back in and the phone came on, but then crashed with the blue screen again. So I thought great I guess I'll put it back to stock and use the warranty. By this time though I was having trouble getting it to load past the LG screen. I finally got it into TWRP and was able to wipe everything (except SD card) and then I stuck it in download mode and went to install the .tot files. Weeeeelllll, long story short, it crashed during download mode install with the LG Flash Tool. So now the phone gets stuck in download mode everytime I pull the battery and power it on. And crashes again every time I go to install anything. KDZ doesn't work, the flash tool says it can't communicate with the phone, because it crashes. And LG Flash Tool for the .tot files seems to crash everything it loads the modem, or consistently crashes on LAF:bin_user_mode. So I have no idea. At the moment it just looks like my phone is all funky defective, and Verizon may take it back and give me a new one so I'm going to try that. HOWEVER! If anyone has any ideas on what the issue is or what else can be done, I still want to hear it. Feel free to post
Also I've tried updated drivers for the computer, I've tried rolling back drivers, I've tried different KDZ files, I've tried the LGUP8974.dll fix where you flash that in flash tools and then flash the vs985 dll, which is what I had to do to get it back to stock the first time. I've tried everything I could find online except anything to do with fast boot and shorting the pins. Which I haven't tried because I can still access download mode it just seems to be stuck in download mode. Those methods from what I understand are for hard bricking, and for people who's phones don't turn on at all. Although if Verizon won't help I may try one of the laf recovery methods.
Thanks!
Tip: TLDR at the end
I own an LG-E460 since August-September 2013 and I still think the only reason that I have to get a newer phone is because of Android 4.1.2 and the limited amount of apps that support it nowadays.
That is until yesterday.
I was checking out some features on ROM Toolbox (my phone is rooted but with stock ROM and stock everything else) and I noticed this cool feature: you can change the status bar icons.
It said it was just changing some PNGs and I thought "What could go wrong? Maybe my icons will get f...ed up, and I backed up anyway so I can just restore the old files!".
Well (not so much :C) it turns out I was wrong. A lot!
I change the WiFi icons, restart System UI and it keeps giving me pop-ups saying that System UI has crashed and the phone was unusable because when I tapped OK the thing would reappear right away.
I restarted the phone removing and re-inserting the battery.
The phone doesn't get past the boot animation.Crap
I tried connecting it to a laptop with an USB cable but Windows installed the drivers, the phone charges up but it doesn't show up even in the LG Mobile Support Tool, I could try with my desktop (I am installing drivers and setting up stuff since I recently updated to W10 so I prefer to use the laptop while it does its thing).
I wasn't able to get the phone to boot in any of the advanced "modes" using online guides, and I don't have much experience with messing with advanced stuff on phones anyway (I once had to get into recovery mode for a friend's Galaxy ace for...reasons but that's not like I know anything about phones, really it's just that I'm the "tech guy" among my friends and sometimes they call me to fix their stuff and I at least have to give a shot at helping them, even if my knowledge of phones is pretty limited).
TL;DR: phone stuck in bootloop because I tried to change a status bar icon, need help!
If you can't understand some of what I wrote you can ask, I'm sorry but I'm Italian and we are terrible at English
Hi, you can search in Google how you can restore your LG L5 II E460 with Kdz.
I also tried to install Chainfire 3D on my E460 but my phone stucked on LG logo.
Then i searched in Google and i restored my device!
Ok, first up I know there are many posts out there about this issue because I've looked at most of them and tried them so please bear with me.
I have a Samsung Galaxy GT-N8010, about 4 years old. I have never rooted or done anything to the firmware in all that time except OTA updates & the occasional factory reset to clean things up.
Couple of months ago it was on, i had been using it and put it down and when i came back it was on the Samsung logo screen and has been ever since.
Since i could get into the download page even though it was already bricked I figured i'd try rooting to see if i could fix the problem. Now possibly i should have attempted to get into recovery mode first but I attempted to install CWM (as per posts here). It appeared to install fine. But no recovery partition, screen blinks and goes back to the logo.
I've tried flashing stock firmware, TWRP, CWM - all 'appear' to install successfully according to ODIN, but nothing changes, still stuck on the logo screen.
So does this sound like a hardware issue or am i missing something? The Tab A 10.1 with s-pen looks great, would be a perfect replacement, but is not available in NL
Thanks guys (& gals)
