[Q] LG Optimus bricked! - GT540 Optimus General

Hi, im reading trought threads all day but i cant find solution.
I tried to flash 6/October Android 2.3.7 CyanogenMod. I did something wrong and my phone is now bricked. When i try to turn it on i get "Arm11 is Crashed" and i can go only in some Donwload Mode (vol down+ power).
Main problem is that PC dosnt even recognise my phone. I already tried reinstaling drivers.
Thanks in advance.

Look at the last post in this thread:

This question has been answered many times!!
I don't have the link..
Go to google and type LG GT540 bricked!!

Remove battery and retry to flash your phone
It's not bricked if it has still download mode

I can't go to download mode or recovery mode . It scews me
if you have no way into download mode your screwed. Look for different ways into download mode and see if you can get it

If you forsure cant get into download mode ask T-Mobile for a exchange. It is very easy to complete and since it happened after an official update you should have no issues completing the exchange
try pullin battery. plug phone into computer. hold volume up and volume down. put battery in. prest-o change-o you should see an android w/exclamation point in a triangle. if this fails a jig from skorpion(I believe that is his name) might help, just fyi ur vibe is probably 99% un-brickable.
Try to connect ur phone to pc & if you' ve seen an icon phone+pc+!, your in download mode..odin can read it..or you can simultaneously hold vol up + power to get into download mode

i try everything in a net coffee installing lg drivers only and used the instructions. yesterday i install and lg program disable modem still no luck. so if phone just doing that noise means that is connect it but how must kdz find the phone if the phone is not installed. (i mean not the lg drivers but the phone when is in usb debaging smth is installed in pc from phone) i search everywhere and everybody can get to download screen exept me grrr is not my phone orelse i will throught it from the window. so if the the noise is ringing means is connectid no need for download screen? thanks you and sry for my english!
you need that sound and download mode unfortunately. try installing new drivers and new KDZ and try again. if not take it to the LG service. do you have recovery installed?

as far as i know its power + camera button.
Hold them down until backlight comes on. If you need it fixed by LG just lie about what happened. Dont tell them it died when you were installing a custom rom. Also from what i understand you cant get it to even turn on in any way? Or connect to a computer?

It appears like am in serious trouble. i installed a LED notification APK posted by someone in a separate thread. The installation went normally but when it came to restarting the phone it went grey and wouldn't restart. After i removed the battery to start manually,it didn't come on. its been dead and shows no sign of life. it cant charge and the computer doesn't see it. the button combinations also don't bring up emergency mode. so am seeking for help if anyone can help me.

Thanks for answering but the phone is completely dead and not responding to any of the suggestions made. I am not sure wheather it is me who is not doing it correctly but am now heading to the outlet where i purchased from, as it is still under warranty. I hope they will assist me without unnecessary complications.
as regards to the suggestions given it appears like they work under certain conditions not all and we need to find out what these conditions are.
Edit. What eventually happened is that I took my phone to lg service centre as it was still on warranty.They changed the board .
Problem was solved through service centre. The board was replaced. My imei is now different

[Q] L5 - Stuck after Android upgrade

Hi, i'm new and french so I'm sorry for my bad english
I have an Android LG optimus L5 II. I accepted the android upgrade (about 'applications') and now I can't turn on my phone; it's stuck on the 'SRF' logo just after the 'LG' logo. It works but don't start. Please, help me...
Is your phone rooted? And does it have cwm installed?
You may have bricked it but thats not a big deal, the first thing you can trie is to press volume down and the home button, and press power, as soon as your phone vibrates let go of the power button and keep holding volume down and home button. Let go after 10 seconds, your phone shuld factory reset, if it does let it boot. Leave it for 5 minuts on boot. If it wont boot after that, youll need to download kdz to your PC and flash the original OS.
Hope this helped

Thanks a lot for your answer!
Is your phone rooted? And does it have cwm installed?
- Hmm I don't think so(By the way I don't really understand what it means... but i haven't install any custom things or hack)
volume down and the home button, and press power,
- Volume down is the only dead button on my phone, I can't use it anymore...
I tried what i could but it still stuck on the logo....
Uh volume down is a very big problem, you cant go in to recovery or in to download mode to fix your phone.
You can fix all software problems by your self, but all buttons need to finction.
Im sorry to say you may need to go and fix your button befor you can fix your boot problem.

There's a guide for unbrick an LG L5, just google it
Edit: Sorry, I didn't see the "II", my bad. But you can try the same for your model.
Actualy just fornd out to factory reset it you just need hold vol up and vol down at the same time and press and hold power till the phone vibrates, but you still need the vol down button.

At step 20, I don't have the "Select country and language" window: it opens the LG update tool but without anything,... I think i've done the previous steps correctly...
Make sure you installed the driver for your phone from lg on to your pc.

Ok, so I connected my bricked LG phone, then I started the 'Automatic Offline Procedure' and set "On" on the Windows Enabler, R&D Test Tool opened, I put the .kdz, click on "Normal Web Upgrade" then "Uprade start".
And the LG Mobile Support opens itself insteed of the LG Flasher, without possibilities: I've already download the drivers on this one: and now I can't see those drivers anymore if I remake this procedure (as you can see on my screen).
I've also downloaded "LGUnitedMobileDriver" for my phone just before that. So I don't think it's a driver problem ...
Where am I wrong?

Try it with one of theas links, befor you use them, re install mobile drivers, btw if you dont see mobile drvers runing or installed in programs see if thay show up when you enable LGmobile modem.
im not sure any of this will work i have the 1 l5 but it worked for me.
