I was pulling one of my many over nighters while trying to find a Stock CWM backup to my Optimus L9 P769
Well while doing this, I accidently installed the V20H CWM Backup for the P760, which of course inverted my screen..
(honestly I didnt think this was possible) However I am unable to install the Bootstrap CWM recovery so I can correct the problem
The touch is really wonky as I already knew it would be from all my research..
Ive been working on this all night, and the phone itself is Rooted, thats the good thing, I can get around the wonky touchscreen if I can get a custom recovery on this.. Ive tried just about everything I can on this.. I have no idea the device would even allow me to flash this Rom..
I have made attempts to unlock the bootloader, but not sure if I succeeded.. Im more concerned in bringing my phone back to stock.
I have the CWM backup to do that. Can anyone help me find to install a recovery on my Optimus L9 P769 now running the P760 Rom
with an inverted screen.. Im still working on it, but any help would be worth it to me..
The recovery I tried to install was the L9RecoveryInstaller_1.5.0.. Which worked like a charm before..
But Now im really stuck, and I dont want to have to buy a new phone..
It'll all work out. I don't have time to explain it (long story), so I'll tag an expert. @kuma82

that cwm backup wasn't made with l9 recovery installed.
press the power button on and off, so the screen is inverted, it's easier to navigate with the screen inverted. Locate your l9 recovery app and install the recovery.
Afteward reboot and restore you cwm backup.
after you restore you backup reboot and go right back into cwm,
this time fix the touch screen with lelus touchscreen fix.

Sorry I'm kind of busy right now to give you a proper write up on the steps.
Look at carloswii5 video in the unlock bootloader, so you can learn how to perform an offline flash and root.

I tried to install this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033653) on my friends Optimus T and something went wrong. I followed the instructions to the letter and after the format of the /system i couldn't actually flash the ROM because everything got deleted so i tried to restore the NANDROID that i had made and i couldn't because there was nothing there and now it just hangs at the boot up screen! PLEASE help me get this fixed
Well... may seem a bit obvious have you tried flashing a different rom from recovery yet? If you get really desperate I can supply you with the kdz file for titanium optimus 509.
Or u cud start a fresh wipe your sd card and store on of your fav roms on it and then flash it with recovery..Start afresh..If u can boot into recovery then no worries

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354 Try this rom. it installed just fine on my Optimus T titanium. I used clockwork recovery to do so. assuming you can get to recovery which from turned off hold volume down+home then power. If you can;t get to recovery you will probably have to use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865479 however you would have to do it from emergency mode instead
Only two options:
1. If you can access the Recovery menu, then clear everything and flash a ROM again.
2. If you cannot, just flashed an official fimware back with kdz (use the links provided in the posts above). Then start all over again.
Simple

I think the issue your having is that adding the ext partion formats the sd card. Thus, the zip you are trying to flash is no longer there and you nandroid was deleted also. Boot back into recovery and select the usb mount option, transfer the zip you want to flash and then flash it. Simples
Ciaox simply missed the line out where is should say copy *************.zip to sd card before the bit about flashing it. I think this time following the instructions to closely caused this lol Man up
thanks mates, got it working with a a CM7 port (actually I had to go through 3 because two didn't have the Market for some reason

Glad you got this resolved. But for future ease of flashing download a flashable zip containing the market. such as the one listed in the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1072252

I've tried every possible way to get this phone to boot to recovery it just does not.
Even tried volume down instead of up all it does is erase my information.
However, a friend of mine own a lg optimus t p500 and boots to recovery with no issue.
I've also tried booting via apps from market.
I am rooted and running stock rom not sure if its updated I've owned it for only a few months and bought it used for 50 bucks.
If you guys have a conclusion let me know I'd really like a nice fast custom rom..
I've searched google and no answers for my stubborn phone.

Hmmm... At the risk of stating the obvious: have you flashed a custom recovery? Because the stock one does exactly what you have described.

I may be misreading your question but I never flashed anything to the phone, somehow it doesn't allow it
But, now all it does is force close and crash including messaging apps the stock messaging app and handcent is the os like corrupt or something? My friend seems to think so.

LOL. Without flashing a custom recovery, you cannot boot to it! The stock one just does a factory reset and nothing else.

Ok, your new so I will go easy.
First thing you need to do is use the search button and figure out how to install clockwork recovery for your model of phone. Start there.

This last post was unnecessary I don't have much experience with this device but I have my answers from the others, thanks guys I'll see what I can with it but with the force closing I may just have to return it.
I also "thanked" everyone that helped, I was completely lost.
Hey guys. So I have been flashing Rom's on just about every android phone I have owned since the Moto Droid 1 came out. I never have had any real issues. I am by no means an expert but I do have a meager comprehension of how this all works. But for some reason when my friend brought his Moto Atrix 4g over to have me unlock it and root it for him, I got it unlocked and rooted successfully but once I completed those tasks I set about getting him a custom rom. I attempted to flash CM10, CM7 and a few other roms. Atleast 4 others. None of them seem to want to flash. His phone is now stuck on the Dual Core boot menu. When I go into recovery from CWM and select restore it just clears the screen of all text and nothing happens. Yes when I flash the rom I wipe cache/dalvik cache/ and factory reset. I have no idea what is going on or how to fix it at this point and any help would be appreciated. I am currently trying to find a stock image rom but the only one I found on these forums is outdated and there is no mirror in the link. So PLEASE PLEASE help me. Idk what to do.
Thanks guys!!!!

Oh wait did you mean like a different recovery under the CWM? There are no other Recoveries. The only option I get when I go to back/recovery is to either backup or recover so I select recover and then nothing happens from that point.
How did you flash CWM on it in the first place? It's the same procedure, you know... Or you could read the related recovery thread. Some people like romracer's others like TWRP. They're available in the dev section.

Oh ok my bad. I understand what you are saying. I wasn't sure if TWRP and romracer were compatible with this phone. I didn't know how that worked but if I can just try and flash a different recovery I'll do that. Ill try TWRP tonight that's what I have on my EVO 4g LTE and I flashed CM10 just fine on it so. Hopefully that will help. Thanks a ton man!
Well, if it's in this phone's dev section, it better be compatible with this phone, eh? Just don't try to use another phone's recovery. That could brick it.
I use TWRP recovery. There is a thread for that in the dev thread. Someone there made it flashable. You'll just have to search for it. Put it on the sd card, go into recovery and flash it. Reboot into recovery and there yea go. I prefer TWRP because it's different and easy to use. Good luck!!

Someone should put a sticky that the automatic unlock/root tool flashes an outdated recovery that doesn't work with new ROMs. We seem to get one of these threads every couple of days..

Just go to the play store and buy rom toolbox. You will not regret it. You can change recovery with a touch of the screen.

Did you try force flashing a stock rom? There should be a guide on using KDZ somewhere on XDA as well. If straight flashing fails, try wiping all caches and maybe even format/system in CWM.
Hello everyone, Forgive me if I seem a bit flustered, but I am. I was adding a few fonts with an app from the play store. It would restart after each fine, and there was no issue. On the final one, it restarted, but then got hung up for 10 minutes on the ATT logo. I have restarted it with the power button numerous times now, and it has done nothing different. I have only rooted the phone, I have no custom recovery or anything. I booted into the LG stock recovery, canceled the reset, and it still hung up at the ATT logo.
What might have happened, and how can I fix this? I would rather not hard reset, but if I have to, I have to. Please respond with anything at all that might help me. I'm using my old GSII right now, and the newer sim doesn't fit quite right in it. I can make calls and stuff, but i want to get back on the OG as fast as possible. PLEASE respond with anything helpful. Thanks.
I am running stock Jellybean (The initial jellybean we got, I think it was 4.1.1), rooted. No custom roms, no custom recovery.
UPDATE: I did a factory reset (by holding power and volume down). It is still doing the same thing. It gets to the ATT logo and plays the music "Dee dee dee dee 'click'", then stops. Nothing more happens. At all. I've let it sit for a while and nothing is happening. So now the question is, how can I save it with that in mind?

Sound like you need to use LGNPST or use a teenybin then flash a custom ROM. Factory reseting ( I think) only clears out the /data partition which is where all user and app data is saved. If something in the /system partition is not allowing it to boot, that is why the factory reset didn't work. To fix you have to restore the /system partition back to stock.
To do so, flash a full bin. Which will reset the phone to complete stock (no root, no unlocked bootloader).
Or you can flash a teenybin. Which is smaller and safer. Flashing a teenybin unlocks the bootloader and puts a custom recovery. From there you can just flash a new ROM.

The directions to use the Teenybin are in the OP found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230994
The hardest part is getting LGNPST working properly. But that's easy now thanks to the auto install.

Apologies all, yes I got it working... Mostly. WiFi quit working completely (refused to connect), phone calls took forever to go through, and other odd issues. I'm running it off an old backup of ICS on my external SD. The issues were too much for me to handle, and I was scared to do anything more, so I've got a Moto x. I'm going to try to correctly fix the OG now, so hopefully by documenting the process I can help someone else.

i was scared to use teenybin like you but 4.4 lured me into trying. Give teenybin a try its not that bad. you just need to install it, download the teenybin, launch the program, boot your phone into download mode and run the program with the dll and bin files selected.
