Hello, I have recently rooted my LG Optimus Exceed 2, but since then, I have been having issues with it(Go Figure..).. Last night I tried to install ROM Manager so I can install a different Firmware. It kept rebooting into recovery mode. Now, I cannot seem to boot up my phone. I cant get it into recovery either. I have tried to boot into Download Mode and even that didn't work.. My PC will recognize something is connecting, but when my phone connects, I open he folder and it only shows folders image and verinfo
Phone Info:
LG Optimus Exceed 2
LG-VS50PP
S/N 408CYCV0225067
MEID HEX A100003E791816

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.
So I rooted my sister's optimus v about a month ago. Today she installed a battery mod app from applanet and as soon as she chose which battery mod she wanted she had to restart her phone for the changes to be applied, but when rebooting the phone it would only get stuck in reboot. So I tried to start it up in recovery and got the blue screen that says fastboot mode started. I looked that up online and found a fix to it but I need it to go into emergency mode to fix it that way and it will not go into emergency mode, any combination of keys only takes it to either the blue screen with the fastboot mode message or it just reboots and gets stuck. So now what do I do? I really need to find a way to fix her phone. Thanks in advance to anyone who tries to help.
try to turn on the phone & use LGMobile update tool. That should recognise the phone & install original lg fw

I am not sure if it works for optimus v but it does works for optimus 1. give it at try
I managed to finally get the phone into emergency mode. I had installed the LG mobile support tool and installed all the drivers and tried to go that route but it kept telling me I only had one of four drivers installed, even though I have installed several drivers. After all of that I had finally got it into emergency mode so I went back to trying KDZ. I'm supposed to select the rom where it asks for the KDZ file right? But when I go to browse for the rom file it doesn't show up in the folder I put it in. I've rooted 4 phones and have done so many other things with them and never bricked one, was always able to figure out everything I did and never had to ask any questions but I can't figure this out to save my life and it is driving me crazy. I do really appreciate you guys for the suggestions and thanks to your suggestions I have gotten this far.
Hey, I have the same problem. I rooted my phone then I installed that battery mod app on applanet. I installed it then when I had to restart my phone for it to apply it just got stuck and kept looping the reboot screen where it says "ANDROID". Did you get ur fixed yet?

I'm having the same issue right now, although at least you have managed to get it into emergency mode. How did you do it?
The other issue I'm seeing is that there is no .kdz for the Optimus V LGVM670. I found a .cab file that is supposed to be the newest update, but not even sure that will work with the the kdz manager.
It was my sister's phone and I had the same problem with kdz. Had the cab file so couldn't use it with kdz. My sister left her phone with me for a few days to try to fix it and when I couldn't she took it home and managed to fully brick it to where it would do nothing at all so she had to get a new phone. I got it into emergency mode by holding down the volume and it was either the back button or the home button I pushed at the same time, can't remember which. As I held those down I plugged in the USB cord that was connected to my laptop and it went right into emergency mode. Just make sure you disable that LG modem in the device manager on the computer before doing anything because my sister forgot to do that and that is how she fully bricked her phone. Good luck to you guys and if anyone figures out how to fix it I would be interested in knowing how you did it.

hmmmmm, I don't remember completely how I did it, but there was a very helpful guide floating around XDA. I bricked my Mom's Optimus one as well . I actually had to go to the LG support site, type in my Phone serial number and find a list of all the firmware available. From there I right clicked the page and got the page source. From there I got my firmware and I entered it in the KAZ or LG B2I Agent ? - Dont quite remember. Anyways, it ended up working out for me, but I accidentally flashed the German firmware, but in the end, everything was all good LOOL.
Hello
E recently bought an LG Optimus Black (P970). It had stock rom 4.0.4 and the guy told me that it has CWM recovery on it, but i never tried.
It was working well, but one day it started to freeze quite often. One day i inserted another sim card than the one i was using before and it freezed. Restarted the phone but it froze again. The third time it didn't even boot, but instead the green android appeared with his belly open and the exclamation mark hanging out of it.
I tried a factory reset, but the process lasted more than 15 minutes so i turned off the phone.
Since then, when the phone starts the following happens: LG logo appears, Android guy appears with the loading sign in his belly and after 3 seconds the lg logo again.
I was able to access the SWUpdate menu and to flash a stock ROM with LG MobileSupportTool. When the update process ended with success, the phone should have restarted itself but it didn't. Instead the lg logo appeared again.
Trough the SWUpdate menu i managed to flash other stock ROMs on it with the SmartFlashTool but the same thing happened as before. (Successful flash, but the phone didn't restart. I even managed to flash a ROM on the device which had CWM recovery patched to it.
After this i created myself a 3in1 service cable with 56kohm,130kohm,910kohm resistors. I managed to access the SWUpdate menu with it, so i knew the cable was good. But i couldn't read from the device with CDMA tool. CDMA made the connection, but couldn't read.
I took the phone to the service, but they told me that the phone didn't respond to the JTAG either. They assumed that the motherboard is broken.
I didn't make peace with the idea that the motherboard is broken. I need help. Currently my only option is the take the phone to another service and hope that they are more capable than the previous ones.
Thank you in advance.
Hello everyone,
Last month I rooted my LG G2, and installed cyanogenmod. Everything was going smoothly but for some reason I decided to restore my phone from a backup I made before installing cyan and then just continued using it like that. Two nights ago an android software update took place automatically overnight and when I woke up it was just stuck in the TWRP menu. I tried restoring from previous backups, wiping it and re installing the cyanogenmod that was still on the virtual SD card to no avail, and finally completely formatting the phone to see if I could get it to show up on the computer because it makes the connection noise but it doesn't show up as a device or hard drive.
So now when it boots up it shows the LG logo and then brings me back to TWRP but now I have no restore points on the phone. So is there anyway to get my computer to recognize it so I can add files and hopefully get a working backup on the phone? Or is there a way I can even just flash the stock firmware on it again? Or am I out of luck?

so you formatted your sdcard too. (jokes aside, thats genius). Mind my sarcastic fun-poking, you will have to put your phone into emergency mode and use a tool to flash the stock rom. Usually you can navigate to the manufacturers support page and they will have an updater tool that can flash one of the updates. if not, then scour the forums for an unbrick guide that will flash the stock rom from emergency mode.
Hello everyone, I have been a fan of your forums for quite a while, you guys have an awesome community. I have been attempting to unbrick my VS990 with no success, I have LGUP and all of the proper dll files in the proper folders, I have two .kdz. One is the stock kdz, I can not get to work at all due to anti roll back (no matter which option I choose) and the other is the current kdz. I got that one to accept using update, but it did not fix my phone, it is still stuck in boot loop. and using refurbish I get an error message saying that it is not supported by that kdz. LG UP is fully recognizing my phone, I found the .kdz files no problem, I believe that I have followed all of the steps here >> https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/guide-lg-v10-stock-firmware-to-stock-t3224170 any help at all would be appreciated. Side note, I have not rooted or installed a custom recovery.
I would also like to add, I can not do a hard reset. Every time I attempt the phone either locks up when I hit the power key on yes to confirm factory reset, or sometimes it reboots to LG splash screen and locks up then. I am starting to wonder if there isnt a hardware problem with the phone instead of software.
