Out of the blue, phone went dead. I dont know why really. It honestly didnt get any moisture, or bad current, I never charged it via USB. I have drained it couple of times to zero battery but it charged after that. this time, it was at 22% wen I went to sleep, in the morning it was dead.
I know that this issue always resolves with: "use warranty" suggestions but I tried, and being that I live in a weird country that wont happen. Generic answers like "water damage" with the sticker still white and all that.
ADB doesnt see the phone, also.
anything anyone has to suggest other than telling me phone is dead (obvious) and to use warranty (which I cant) .. ? Please help, this is my first LG and maybe there is a solution that works
Have you tried :
hard reset - turn off your phone, press and hold Vol-, the home key, and the power for 8 seconds.
or
fastboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119090
Will try it in the morning (6-7 hours) as I hafe dissasembled and analzed the whole device internaly for possible rust or theoretical moisture from cold weather. Found None. Really hope this device isnt one of those that just die for no reason
battery might have gone dead. get it charged externally for few minutes and then try charging with phone. if it works for first time, then its time to change battery.
well, this is just a possibility.
for all you people, if you ever get in same situation:
Phone was moisture damaged. I didnt get it wet, but there are 2 possibilities:
1. a friend told me that all the shipped phones, compared to the air cargo phones, get damaged no matter how good protection is. If they are shipped to your country from the land of origin, they are most probably water damaged already. Being that I live in Serbia, and all the importers of goods use ships instead of air cargo (big price difference), my phone may be water damaged before ever turned on.
2. it was a ridiculous weather in Belgrade, with minus temperatures in March, so a simple condensation may have damaged the phone.
SOLUTION:
Service shops CAN repair the phone if it was moisture damaged instead of immersed, because air moisture damages only certain electrical circuits, instead of the whole board. My phone is at a service shop now, and the guy is inspecting the damaged circuit. It can be restored, and if the damage is high it would require replacement of the circuit which is kinda tricky cause it requires very similar board like the one LG L9 has, for harvesting.
If anyone maybe somehow finds a working SIM free motherboard for LG L9, please let me know cause I cant find it online. Just one ebay entry with "works but has issue" which I wont buy.

I've bricked L0 P760 also - suddenly turned off and can't charging anymore(tried another good battery but didnt help).
I've followed some instructions from xda a tried everything (on 3 PC's - win7 and XP) but no joy.
Installed unified Lg driver, OMAP drivers (but problems with them is constantly switching on/off), started Fastboot by Lelus on my pc,
followed instructions and fastboot worked fine, installed Lg USB Port(changed to 41), then opened Lg Flash Tool and after 40 seconds
Lg USB Port disconnect by its own...
Tried with Lg Mobile Support Tool too and UpTestEX_mod2_marwin but still same problem - Lg USB port disconnected after some time.
Any ideas?

LG Optimus L9 P769 is not charging
My LG Optimus L9 P769 is not charging. I have used the same charger on other phones and it works. I removed the battery and charged it on an external charger and the phone works normally other than not charging.
I have done a hard reset after turning off the phone and pressing and holding Vol-, the home key, and the power for 8 seconds but that did not help!
As a last resort, I also replaced the Flex Cable Charging Port and Flex Cable Dock Connector using the part on the attached image but the phone still does not charge.
Can anyone suggest what I may do next to repair the phone? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

One day when the battery went down i put my phone on charging, after some time came an error msg popup..
' your battery temperature is getting high force shutdown'
when i switched of my phone and rebooted it doesn't boot..
now the phone is dead..
guess the battery maybe drained. dont hav any alternate battery.. tried another charger , no luck..
tried pressing vol up key+home+power, no luck..
while connected to charger, phone heats up near the camera, under the sim slot.. (heats up even when connected without battery)
on warranty period, going for the service center.. is there anything else i can do?
If you have warranty I would just go that route. Even if you can bring it back to life it may have caused some damage to the internals and would probably crap out again.

yes im worried abt the internals, it heats up like an oven, seems lyk the boardn is shorted inside somewhr.. im goin for the warranty, but it would take time i guess..
did anyone else hav the same problem?
Mine also heats up near the camera a fkin lot..
LG L9 P765
If im replying you..then be a good bytch.....
Got my mainboard replaced from Lg service center.. got it workin, but now i hav noise and disturbance during call...
LG Optimus L9 P760 can of course overheat itself then force shutdown.
Instructions:
1. Wait until your device cools down completely.
2. Plug charger in. In case your battery was entirely empty, after plugging the charger in, your screen may not respond for a while. It's because your device hasn't got enough voltage to turn screen on. Only thing you need to do is start charging your phone and even if it doesn't seem like it's being charged, leave it that way. After 10-15 minutes press home button to see if screen is back alive. If yes, you're fine. If not, take it to service.
I hope this helps.
Hi, I have a big a problem!!
After charging, my mobile phone overheated, turned off and now it won't start again. We tried everything to turn it on but nothing is happening.
What can I do, please help me!
Wait for it to cool down and then try to start it. Generally the hardware turns the power off when a bad case of overheating occurs. If waiting doesn't help, I think some internal circuit must have gotten fried. In that case, you'll need to get your phone replaced at a service centre. It'll still be under warranty I think.
request return or refund.
Aw well try charging while its turned off leave it on charging for a while and try turning on
hey just trying to find a solution
a couple days ago i was watching videos and the phone was very hot and it restarted into that demigod green screen.
here i read that that cuold happen because overheating i put the phone in a cooler for a little bit. and it started but it turned off again suddenly. when i opened it i saw behind the main board there was moisture so i said my god i think i caused water damage.
but the phone when i plug it the pc without battery i get the no battery screen so it still powers on and get recognized by the pc, but when i tried to put the battery in to start in fastboot mode, the phone turns off and gets disconnected and connected again to the pc.
so my actual problem is the phone WITHOUT the battery in it gets recognized by the pc BUT i dont get any kind of response on the screen it just black, i put the battery the same thing gets recognized but black screen and cant get anything out of it.
can anyone help???
BOOTLOOP. Contact LG Repair, they will most likely repair it even if it's outside warranty.

even if im overseas? i bought it from us and im not the first owner, also is there a way to repair it at home or some third-party associated company with lg overseas.
Hi, I seem to have found a critical issue...
so I was just normally charging my device, when I inserted the cable it charged normally, so I let it charge, but somehow it fried itself and after I checked back on it in about half an hour turned out it completely bricked itself. Nothing could turn it on. Either the screen fried itself or the phone was entirely fried, but there was no smell and neither the phone or cable was warm. Now I have to send it back to China and get it fixed since they only sell this thing in China...
Anyone experience similar issues? This was so sudden and without any warning.
Update:
My Xiaomi has arrived back from China and it has been fixed. Seems like a battery issue/charging issue as it booted up after like 15 minutes of charging. The battery has been replaced.
