So I'm new to this phone modding stuff... I got an Lg G2 for cheap and wanted it on my straight talk and got some assistance with it, it didn't work so I tried T Mobile, now my phone just isn't working.This is what happened:
So I payed a guy to put cyanogenmod on my phone being i didn't know what i was doing. It didn't work on straight talk so a guy on reddit said he could help, he had me do this: http://imgur.com/RNKGJiD That seems to have put an unofficial cyanogenmod on my phone. that didn't work with straight talk so the dude said it would work for t mobile. I spent a bunch of money to bring my own phone to t mobile and it still didn't work! I was able to figure something out with customer service and it worked for about two days then my data stopped working. So i went into the t mobile store and he said my rom was bad, he suggested going back to stock. So the guy who was helping me had me download these https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12880 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/devd...t/dl/?id=10694 . So I did... my phone just went into an endless loop of booting up to the LG screen again and again for 20 minutes, so i went back into recovery and i tried to restore an old backup, that also went into an endless loop of booting. So I factory reset it, it is still in an endless loop and it wont actually turn on all the way. Is there any way you can help me? I'm like 200 bucks into this and I havent had a phone for a freakin month.. I could really, really use some help.
I know I probably sound like a dummy and people that don't know what they're doing is annoying... I'm pretty tech savvy but phones are outta my scope.. If anyone can help me I would be very very grateful.
Thank you

Anyone have any idea how to fix this? For the past 4hours I've tried to enter download mode with no success. My pack date on the box is 8/22/10 so possibly it's quite newer than the ones on the forum?
I've seriously tried EVERYTHING posted. Please if anyone can help I'd appreciate it. The place I bought it from is a Tmobile Authorized Dealer however; there return policy doesn't return phones, i'd have to go through tmobile. My phone is rooted, i'm worried if I return it if I'd get billed down the line for that.
It boots up like normal except, the Splash screen for Tmobile Welcome Think Family etc.. blahblah.. the music doesn't play there anymore, it plays at the Samsung Galaxy S screen then it looks like it's going to boot on to the desktop and just has a black screen.
If anyone has taken apart there galaxy and done anything that way, I'm willing to do it. I have work Friday, and no phone, my job requires it to take my tech calls. I'm pretty screwed atm, so any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you,

I have been a HD2 and G2 guys so far i learned a few trix and how to flash those
Well i wanted to move to a faster phone and front camera
yesterday i sold me phone and got me a Atrix

well i got RSD lite and started flashing the stock rom to it.
everything when fine till the end
at the point where it has to reboot. ir didnt do it.
so after waiting for it for a few minutes i try to reboot it and it didnt work
now i think i have bricked it all i get it a
SVF:105.1:2
Failed to boot 0X1000
My question is = is there a way to fix this? or is this a complete hard brick and i should get rid of it.

i knwo if i put it up on ebay i probbaly wont get but $75 or less for it =-\
Thanks in advance
willing to donate if someone can help me
I forgot to mention.
i have try the volume up and power and volume down also

Did you flash a froyo sbf over a gingerbread one? If yes, the phone is bricked. Sorry!
When you turn the device on - does it say anything about NV FLASH and then turn off?
From what i got is it was updated.
i was trying to flash the old stock rom
i dont know if it was froyo or gingerbread
NV FLASH yes for a little while like not even a second then it turned it self off
anyways this morning i got up. and now all i got is a green light and nothing else.
i called motorola this morning and they guy that anwered said it had warranty so i sent it in.
maybe when it come's back i take every step needed and be carefull flashing it.
thanks guy for the quick reply
okay, I am seeing this alot, but everyone else unit seems to shut off before anything can happen, mine does not, it simply stays on. That being said, I am conducting an experiment, since my ATRIX was afflicted I baught a new one because I liked the webtop idea, so im charging my new one to 100% and then im going to swap out batteries and check the results. Has anyone seen any evidence at all that might suggest a possible fix? I will update you guys on the results of my experiment once completed, hopefully I can come across something that will lead someone to a fix if not find one myself.
Seeking Stock Rom for soft bricked LG Sunset LGL33L on Straighttalk.
Hello, I need the help of xda on this one.
I installed kingroot on my LG Sunset (Lollipop) yesterday and everything was fine. Then I ran Super-Su-me and it soft bricked.
It won't get past the LG-Life's Good screen unless I leave it for 3 hours and then it moves to the Tracfone screen and stays like that.
I have searched all over for the stock rom for this phone and have not had any luck.
I am trying to use KDZ_1_4 to flash it but I need the correct .tot file and the .dll file
Can anyone help me on this one?
Thanks.
Anyone?
Tried to factory reset via stock recovery?

I have the same phone and same problem. rooted with kingroot, ran super-sume opened super su it downloaded and said it needed to reboot and in reboot it is stuck on lg screen. tried factory reset but it starts and goes back to lg screen and stays.
I'm in the exact situation as you. Have you been able to solve the issue yet?
I am pretty much having the same problem. My LG Sunset boots to the Tracfone screen and just sits there and does nothing. I cant even boot into recovery or anything.. I hope someone finds a solution to this cause I have not been able to use my phone for a few days.

Hey man, you need to get another phone asap. For tracfones, it's pretty much the end in cases like these. I actually got another exact (lgl21g) model from ebay, so that as soon as i get the time, will see how i can (if possible) get my softbricked device revived through my new one. But i have yet to research and at all costs, avoid softbricking my new one. As for now, no one else has any idea for a solution.
It kinda blows me away to know that the android community is completely oblivious to these kinds of recent low end, but useful android devices coming out on the straight talk service. For affordable androids, they're kinda neat. But it sucks that Tracfone has completely annihilated the essential utilities that such devices need in order to be revived by the user. I mean an actual bootloader menu to do modding and fixing through. The recovery option on these devices are pretty much useless.
But if you can. you should reply with a description that tells how your device was soft-bricked. As in, "did you use kingroot then Super SUME, which caused your device to freeze on LGs boot logo screen"? If so, then you are one of the many out there who xda needs to listen to, and heavily, i mean HEAVILY REGULATE these eff-ers [http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/paid-software/supersu-please-t3110954]. Because they need to specifically do more research into why their S~H~I~T~T~Y app is... well, S~H~I~T~T~Y! There are people out there promoting this app as though it is absolutely flawless and works on any android, but such a claim is far away from the truth, and these crap-app makers are only breeding more effing lying trolls. And sadly XDA mostly supports those big thugs with flagship phones problems ONLY. Not the little people like us, we're kinda on our own. SuperSUME is not supposed to force anything on the phone if it's not compatible, working something like kingroot if not being able to find a root method, then just telling the user it failed. Instead SuperSUME does something that effs it all up. Which is pretty much worse than malicious s/ware by itself.
So just hang on to your broken fone for now since it's not completely lost. Though you can take it into walmart and see if you can get a replacement, but I cannot promise you that i could come up with a solution, since I'm learning this crap from scratch as well. The only lead i have for now is to "Flash the device with it's firmware", which we know tracfone isn't gonna just hand out like free air. Sadly i'll have to reach out to XDA developers to help me once i describe this issue and experiment with whatever software out there that can help, if god willing.
FYI I just saw your post and Straight Talk sent me a new phone lol. Of course I didn't mention that I was trying to root it. The problem was actually McAfee Security. I didn't think about switching the setting off that locks the phone down if it's rooted. I made sure I did that on the new one and KingRoot worked just fine. ?
i have a LG L164VL it is rooted or was I don't use it as a phone anymore it's my streamer gotta have one right I do a lot of streaming to tv I'm a cord cutter in sorts i did a factory reset now it will not get past where it says looking for updates i thinking it might be bricked or might be easy fix. I've used it t
As just a streamer for a few years worked great for little things and streaming hope you guys know maybe how I can get it back thanks have a great day
Help with the messaging here
I get a message saying someone replied I can't see anything I don't know how to use this site I guess
How did you root it?
KingO root
I used king O Root everything was great for a week or so then something happened it just started acting funny I shut it off and the next morning I powered it up and everything was downhill it stopped at the safe start so that's what I did and it took off to start loading. It was like it was factory reset it started going through the steps of that got past where it looks for the sim card well I took that out long ago its sole purpose is just for streaming and you know searching internet for streams it wasn't a phone anymore never used it as one other than at the beginning when I first got it got past that into the looking for software updates and that is where it got to and that's as far as it will go I don't know what do you think I have did a factory reset to try that was no help same stopping point I don't see any of the backup apps not 1 Ann I know they were there.....Thanks for looking I hope someone has answers so I can get my streamer going Thanks
well, if it is bric you can try anything and see how it goes? have you done anything besides KingRoot?
IDK if there is any downloads for this like stock images or whatever, guess not.
I'm hoping for some info of ANY sort other than 'no root' or 'brick'.
Hey everyone I found a box full of old phones the other day while cleaning out my garage. I came across an old lg aristo ms210 metro pcs phone. I have no clue what I was trying to do to it back then apparently I have up. A few years later I am a lot more confident in my developer skills I figure this will be a piece of cake.wrong mega wrong. I've flashed stock rom twice using uppercut and lg up. A basic go factory reset freezes as hit yes and ultimately all roads lead to this wonderful splash screen. (attached) any advice and or help would be awesome. I'd like to root this phone just have something to fiddle with that won't cost me a bunch of money if I ruin it lol. Thanks guys
Oh and ps I have no clue if I'm in debugging mode or not I'd have to say probably not cuz and doesn't read it but fastboot does. Like I said it's a mystery.
