Hello everyone
By happenstance, at the age of 67, I received for free my first cell phone which was a Tracfone Sunset L33L. I used Kingroot to root the phone then tried without success to which to SuperSU. After I was unable to do that I did a hard reset which failed and bricked the phone. Is there some ROM which can be flashed to resurrect the dead? Is my Titanium backup with the zip file any help?
I don't have much hope that a solution is available. When I try to do a hard reset the little android robot appears for a split second but it is immediately replaced by the LG splash screen followed by the Tracfone splash screen. I another LG Sunset to replace the brick but if I can resurrect the dead I can always return the replacement.
Please answer if you can.
Hi Whiznot
Not sure how your research goes but I took some time and could have a glimpse of information about your device.
Seems that your L33L is the below one, right?
http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-LGL33L
- PDADB gives it as LG L33L Sunset LTE (LG C50)
- At XDA, found low activity under the LG Leon Forum
- You will find that, at this AndroidForums thread, post #21, there is a aboot.img still alive for you.
- A Korean site with some instructions and links ... Please don't ask me any further ... Good luck translating that.
- Finally, just before throwing it away, you may try this.
Let us know how it went.
Cheers.

I had, this will help reflashing
I have an LG optimus L5 II Dual E455. For some reason the operative system failed and the android logo appeared broken when I tried to turn it on. I took it to a shop and they make it worst, now it doesn't go beyond LG logo.
I'm trying to reset the phone to factory setting via download mode, but the LG Mobile Support Tool doesn't help that much, it stuck at 4 or 5% and doesn't go further. I'm trying to flash it but it doesn't work either. I'm using LG Flash Tool 2014. I think the problem might be I'm not using the right .KDZ, I'm not really sure.
Can someone help me? Theres a better way to do it? Needless to say, I don't know a lot about this. Also I've never rooted the phone, not that I know anyway.
HI
Hello starfox3000
Needless to say, we don't have much data on XDA regarding our phone LG E455.
But i have compiled a few things here and there.
Please read the posts by slipsystem, they are quite useful for our phones.
The KDZ for our phone is V10D_00.kdz which is available at:
http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FW376985432109876543213/V10D_00.kdz
Its a file of size 516 MB. I found this on the XDA forum only and many thanks to the developer who gave the link(Sorry, I don't remember his name right now). I hope it works.
For complete guide to rooting the phone, please refer alley23 guide:

Hope your problem is solved soon.

If you have a custom recovery installed than you can just flash the stock rom LG has provided for the public.
This happened to me not to long ago. The LG support tool is the software you'll be looking for. Download, install, connect device while holding up and use the tool to do the rest.
Hello guys. You are my last chance so save my phone. I have bought a LG g3s (beat) d722 yesterday and decided to flash on it the Lineage OS with flashify, and then the things went bad. Now the phone is saying '' boot certification verify '' and black screen. I tried to do a hard reset, it starts and stops after few seconds saying again the ''boot certification verify''. So I don't know what to do. I have done flashing several times before but I never had any problems with it. Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you! I hope somebody can help me save this phone.
Sorry for my english
