[Q] Hard Rest LG GT540 ? - GT540 Optimus General

okay so ive have flashed my LG GT540 with Cyanogen Mod 7,
i want to remove it
ive back to the original firmware
ive tried
volume up button, home button and search button and that dont work for me
is there any other way i can Hard reset my phone?

I believe going back to stock 2.1 is little more harder than that, but i'm curious too, if it's doable, ill reconsider it for sure..miss that battery life from stock 2.1..

Flash a 2.1 Fastboot enabled KDZ. Download and open Mur4ik's SwiftBootloaderBuilder and select 'Remove fastboot and Recovery'. It would bring your phone to the state it was before.

@tejasdj12
would you be able you find me a video of something showing me what to do?

[Q] LG Optimus L3 E405 Recovery Dead?

Hello,
This morning I tried to root my phone so that I can force everything to be moved to a sd card since the storage of the system is low not enough to install apps and to install A mod that is more updated then the current GingerBread OS.
I managed to soft brick the device the rom clearly said e405 obviously the developer has a few bugs anyway I manage to recover from my soft brick by A software 'KDZ' Only issue I have now is when I press volume up on boot I get A notice icon trying to say something (image of the icon is attached below) and when I use ROM Manager to reboot to recovery it will attempt to go there, Instead of going to recovery it goes to A loading page then this erases all my data/apps except SuperUser/Root.
Tried everything and it still does it?
When I use the LG Emergency Software it just goes to a page saying not responding??
Any help and ideas would be grateful so I can fix this issue and move on also im mostly A samsung user and im fairly new to lg.
See thee error message below
Once i get the idea of what the icon is actually trying to say I should be in the right direction.
Thanks,
Spudster

Perhaps you can go to ROM Manager, uninstall Recovery, then re-install it?
I don't really know. I'm sorta new to this stuff.

I saw that icon after flashing back to stock rom with KDZ and a hard reset worked for me. Pull the battery, make sure you not connected to USB or charger, then press and hold home key and down volume while you press power on. Release power when you see LG logo, hold the down and home for a while until you see android unpacking a box. It takes about a minute to see this, so you gotta wait for it. The phone reboots or shut downs, don't rememberwhich

Ok I will try that and let you know if it works in a few hours I gave the phone to my brother for free since I bought A samsung (used to samsungs and love then
Anyway should also mention that when I try to reboot into recovery with rom manager it reboots goes to the loading box thing then it wipes my data Like i said I tried that method in a few hours and get back to you here.
nope
didn't work ;.(
Man go to the screen u have posted the images above , then use KDZ to flash back Man!
This is "DIAG MODE" so select it in KDZ program
So select KDZ file ( download if u have tried urs so far)
No error .. when u click to start upgrade ur phone will apper in emergency mode. Then the KDZ will flash flawslessly

Still didnt work it flash though but still didnt fix the recovery..
These lg are actually useless a simple firmware flash should do the job.
LG staff are also rude to be honest rang up and because I tried to root and I was doing the right thing going back to stock they denied support and hang up without me giving A reply. Glad ive switched back to samsung s4 and Apple IPhone 5C.
Thanks for attempting to help :.)

[Q] Bricked? (VS980, bootloop)

Short version: Phone is boot looping at LG logo and when I try to volDown+power into recovery it gets to the factory reset prompt and I press power twice but nothing ever loads and the backlight just stays on. I'm guessing I no longer have a functioning download mode either because of the way these flashable bootstack zips we've been using on the VS980 ROMs mention that they disable download mode, so I probably can't use LG Flash Tool either. Bricked?
I had been on CloudyRom 1.3. I switched back to xdabbeb's VS980 ROM, the newest version with the 25B bootstack. As many people ran in to, for some reason after coming off of Cloudy, KnockOn doesn't work on other ROMs. I had tried to do this hidden menu trick to update the touch screen firmware which some people reported got the KnockOn working again. Long story short I was having trouble getting the hidden menu trick working while on the xdabbeb ROM, I went back to Cloudy ROM and tried to do it but that didn't fix it either. I saw people having success by going back to a purely stock ROM and doing the hidden menu trick from there.
Here is where I probably messed up, I had a backup from April of this year that I didn't have labelled/named well but I was certain it matched up with the last time I had probably been on a purely stock ROM when the VS980 finally got KK earlier this year, a backup I had made for the convenience of ever having to return to stock. I tried to restore this and that's where the trouble happened. At the time I figured worst case scenario would be that the baseband wouldn't match up and I wouldn't get a signal, but in hindsight I'm guessing it wasn't safe to try to restore this after updating to different bootstacks. Original KitKat rom was 24a I believe but I had just recently updated to 25B to use the newest xdabbeb ROM.
I saw a small ray of hope when I calmed down enough to remember the voldown+power sequence to get into recovery, but after reaching the factory reset prompt and pressing power twice to continue, nothing ever loads and the backlight just stays on, like my recovery is gone now too I guess.
And in a comedy of errors I'm guessing I no longer have a download mode that would allow me to use the LG Flash Tool through PC because these flashable bootstack files always mention that they disable download mode and I never worried about restoring it.
So, bootloop, can't get into recovery, probably can't get into download mode to work with LG Flash Tool.
Screwed? :crying: :crying: :crying:
Yeah, volUP + plug into PC just gets me fastboot mode.
Don't really understand why my recovery is gone, thought the button sequence to get back into recovery was the safety net to this entire thing and why I wasn't too worried. Was running TWRP.
I'm at the mercy of checking the internet when I have access to another computer because my phone was also my internet access on my home PC. Hoping someone can help. : (

[Q] Flashed wrong kernel!!!

i Was trying to get rid of the hissing noise on my
Lg g2 D802
i had TWRP installed
I read in a trhead that flashing the dorimanx kernel should fix that problem.
So i tried flash it, but instead of flashing the D802 i flashed the D800, i know i'm an idiot :/
I had a backup stock kernel but i think that's a wrong one too, again i'm an idiot
Now my phone boots into a black screen within the left top corner:
[2800] Fastboot mode started
[2850] udc_start()
i cannot boot into twrp anymore, it's basically bricked.
Can anyone help me recover my phone? i loved that thing, you will be my hero.
i promise when this is resolved i will never mess around with roms and kernels ever agian, i'm freaking out

Try to flash back to stock with kdz, as far as I am hearing this you kinda soft bricked it but not hard so it's still recoverable, you could also maybe try to flash your recovery back with fastboot since your in fastboot mode but I never tried that so I suggest you to go back to stock with kdz flashing
ye try enter download mode and follow this (use search) i think its volum up and connect usb to pc

Thank you for your reply, i tried to get into download mode, but failed every time, i can only press the power button for 5 sec and the Lg logo apears, then i get the same screen.
did this way?
Your phone must be turned off before starting the steps from this guide.
So, press power button and select “power off”.
Then, press the volume up button on your LG G2.
While you are holding the volume up button, plug in your phone’s USB cable.
Keep pressing the Volume up button until the download mode is being displayed.
Now the phone will install some drivers – it should take around 10 minutes to complete; the best will be to let your device install the mentioned drivers.

I did the same thing today by accident. I still can boot into recovery tho, TWRP. Copied the correct kernel file via OTG but it just reboots the recovery and doesn't install the kernel. Have you find any solutions?
EDIT: I actually managed to flash the right kernel and the problem is now fixed. Check everything before flashing something guys, caution

Cant boot up LG G2

Hey
I was on ressurrection rom and tried to go to Cloudy G2. Since cloudy asks for kk bootloader i used http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/d802-bootloader-changer-1-1-jb-kk-lp-t3104380 with the kk file. Installed cloudy with no issues. Rebooted phone and never again saw the light...
Been for several hours trying to fix it, reading, but it's 04am and i cant see clear anymore. Its my only phone and i need it
So... it does not enter recovery... After flashing i try the combo keys and nothing
I tried to use use the LG Flash tool to revert to stock. I downloads the kdz file but when starting to upgrade it gives an error.
Also tried follow the thread about reverting to stock using lg flash tool 2014 but the same error happens,,, switched usb cables just to be sure...
ideas are accepted... thanks
hmm, maybe wipe your phone AND try another flash tool perhaps?
Can you enter download mode? Do you get black screen or LG logo?
I would wipe if I could get into something to wipe it
Yes. I did get into download mode. But it failed using LG flash tool
I got it figured out and will post on case someone needs it.
I was able to enter agAin in recovery by using the combo keys, power + volume down and when LG logo appears release them and press both volume keys. That did it. Once again in recovery I flashed again kk boot loader, wiped all and flashed cloudy Rom. This time went all ok. Go figure, I did the same thing
well atleast it works now eh?
its working great now.. even better now that today i managed to make my gps work and fix in 5 seconds
Kudos m8! Glad you fixed it. Its annoying having a great device thats not functioning or give us back enough for what we paid for.

Was on CloudyG2 2.2 and Used Autorec and bricked phone. Even download mode is broken

I know there are tons of threads on this, but I think my phone is fixable and I want to make sure I use the right method so I dont permantely brick it. Here is what happened.
1) I was on CloudyG2 2.2 which I believe is a Kitkat rom.
2) Used Autorec and rebooted.
3) Standard boot gets me a Fastboot Started screen.
4) Holding down and powering on gets me to the Factory Reset screen. If I use power button twice to proceed, it goes to a Fastboot screen.
5) Holding volume up and plugging in my phone, it hsows Download Mode for a second then shows a fastboot screen. I do get Windows 10 to ding when I plug it in during this time and the screen changes to fastboot: processing commands.
So, it seems I fubared both download and recovery. I believe I need to get download mode fixed first before I can fix recovery and reinstall a rom. Is that a correct assumption? If so, can someone point me to the correct guide for this specific situation? I see a lot of threads, but I am not sure which pertains to me and I dont want to do anything I can fix.
Thanks, I really do appreciate it!
