I rooted my optimus v using gingerbreak and then installed a rom after wiping all of the data and caches. I went to reboot after the install and it was rebooting for 20 minutes so I took out the battery and tried to install a different rom and once I installed it and went to reboot, the phone was frozen on the lg logo again. Now no buttons on my phone work and the only way to get a response on my phone is i see the lg symbol when I plug the phone to charge it. Please help!
This is the GT540 optimus forum. The optimus V is a different device so the people here won't be able to help you.

Your on the wrong forum.
If your on the LG Logo then you can fix your device since it is soft bricked (mine is hard bricked so it needs JTAG ).
I assume you can use KDZ but you have to make sure the phone modem is disabled in Devices and Printers or you will end up with a brick.
If you have recovery on it then you can fix the issue for sure.
Did you wipe the Dalvik Cache, Cache partition and data?

Well, i've flashed my Blade with ColdFusionX ROM and everything seems to be great.
Then i decided to restart it and it stays on boot loop. It can be solved by entering on recovery and wiping the Dalvik Cache, but i want to know if there is another way to solve it? It's kinda annoying making it everytime i need to restart or shutdown.
Another question is for a good app to make USB Thetering, since the one on this ROM works but drains battery faster then USB provides.
Thanks and sorry about the bad english.

Update:
Now things are worst then ever. I've updated ROM Manager to last version and then i can't enter on recover anymore and cellphone can't start.
Is there any way to flash the recovery from outside the phone?
Method 2.

Do you have Blade drivers for Windows 8, that drivers are for 7 and they aren't working.
Tryed method 2 but it didn't work, adb can't see my device connected. Now i'm trying method 3.
How can I know what TPT should i use?
Sorry for being so noob.
If you got your phone with 2.1 it is gen1, if 2.2 it is gen2.
Therefore, use gen2.

It is with 4.0.4 gen2, but i don't know if i have to use chinese or european TPT.
It was manufactured in china, so I use the Chinese TPT, right? Seems obvious but i'm kinda scared.
Update: Problem Solved!
I turned it in recovery mode, and it got stuck as was happening before. So I left it a while and when i plugged him on the computer, adb recognized it and I could use the fastboot of method 2.
But i still got the problem with the Boot-looping on ColdFusionX that I said on first post. Is there a way to fix this? (It can be fixed wiping the Dalvik Cache every boot, but it is annoying)
Flash another rom.

This will keep on happening because the rom u are using has stopped development. Soon u will also loose Google play.
Do what urbandriver said. I recommended konsta T' cm9 (Google it).

Hi guys, I made a mess today. I decided to restore my stock LG software backup and everything went well. Then there were some LG updates and when they downloaded, I chose to install them. That took me to TWRP. I figured it needs the stock recovery to install the updates so I gave up on the updates and tried to reboot my device. It booted back to TWRP. I found it a bit weird, but I didn't care since I had a backup on the phone. I wiped data, cache, system and dalvik and restored the backup. Guess what, the phone would still only boot into recovery. I started freaking out so I wiped everything except internal again and flashed an AOSP based rom along with the gapps. Still wouldn't boot except recovery. Then I started to freak out even more and decided to wipe EVERYTHING, along with Internal storage. And here I am now, wiped every single thing on the device, stuck in recovery and can't connect my phone to the PC with usb. just a few minutes before I have to leave home. Any ideas on how to fix this? It was just some pointless LG update and it caused such a mess... ADB sideload won't work for me, I'm gonna attempt to find some drivers or something.
Anybody?

Dude, I've done my research and tried to fix it myself. The phone won't go into download mode and it won't connect to my PC. Drivers installed, LG tool installed. I just don't know what to do and I need help from someone who does know.

If you have twrp 2.6.3.4 you sideload rom but this may not help you.
You are going to have to go back to 100%stock.

In TWRP you have USB-OTG. If you have this cable you can install ROM from USB-flash)
I had the same issue. Only way to fix it was with the LG flashing tool. Make sure the usb port you are using on your computer is working and the cable isn't broken. I just followed the steps from this thread and it worked 100% for me.

Short version: phone won't boot, won't go into download mode, won't properly do a factory reset (tries but doesn't do it), need help.
Finally bricked my phone after tampering with it too much.
I was on the stock KK rom released by LG themselves, no root. Reverted back to the 10c firmware, OTA to 10g, rooted and installed TWRP - flashed a Vodaphone Germany KK ROM for the LG G2 because I heard it had minimal bloatware and no bluetooth wakelock unlike the KK version I was on for T-Mobile (my carrier). It had the touchscreen issue which I never experienced before. Tried multiple times to go back to any T-Mobile LG G2 ROM using the LG Mobile Support Tool - no dice. Uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice. So I figured, oh hey, I probably need to use the Vodaphone Germany JB.kdz file, root that, install TWRP, then flash back to the T-Mobile KK version that I had before. Seemed fool proof in theory. Used the LG Tool to do such, it finished smoothly and now my phone won't boot. It won't do a factory reset (it enters the factory reset mode and it attempts to do one but just reboots). It won't enter download mode either. I think I'm screwed here. Any advice?
I found 2 guides, but to even begin to do the first one I need my phone to enter fastboot mode and I can't find out how to do that anywhere.
you say Won't go into download mode? What happens when you try?
It just shows the first screen as it tries to enter download mode, with the blue dots. The screen that comes after that doesn't happen anymore. It used to switch to it after a few seconds and then the LG Mobile Support Tool could connect to the phone, but it can't anymore.

The same thing is happening to my ls980. I'm certain it's hard bricked. Download mode shows on the screen but won't boot into firmware upgrade screen. No recovery at all. Os will not completely boot but does show on pc as LG modem. Think it's totally done for. Let me know if you make any progress because we both have the same problem.

Didn't work for me. Windows and Ubuntu didn't recognize my phone. I actually ended up ****ing up my laptop by overwriting a partition but that's on me.
Decided to take it in to a T-Mobile store and blame it on the Kit Kat OTA. It turns on, doesn't boot, doesn't factory reset, doesn't fully go into download mode - how are they gonna know I ****ed it up? I have basic insurance on my plan because the JUMP program is tied into it. So for a little over $10 a month I just gained access to a warranty exchange of my device which is set to ship overnight. Can't wait. Huge stress reliever. I advise you take your phone into your carrier store and do the same as I did.

So did they fix it for you under warranty?

because I'm having the same problem with my f320k and I'm thinking to send it back to Korea
Same is the case with me, my phone is dead for more than 20 days.

Hi friends have tried all the tutorials to get my d800 Lg g2 a brick but none works because my computer does not go into dowload mode gets stuck in the part that says "dowload mode" but did not get off to the screen firmware update.
excuse my English
You need to first download the kdz and lg flash utility with drivers.
Install drivers
The factory reset deleting system, cache, internal sd.
Then shutdown your g2.
Start to downloaded mode connecting your g2
Flash kdz & voila... Done
I too bricked my phone before. My flashing stuck at 49%. Recovered using above method, all is well now
This works 1000%. I bet on it. Just remember to wipe the phone completely before flashing. You will return to stock with unrooted status in download mode. U will have your warranty back too

My download mode does not go to the final screen (Firmware Update but stuck in download mode screen) and also not connect to computer. I cannot change port to 41 as required by LG FlashTool. So how can I do the kdz flash! Thanks.

I've flashed a new ROM on my LG G2 (D802) 16 GB and now I'm in big trouble but maybe there's some help in the XDA-Forum?
Here are the facts:
- G2 starts and takes few seconds and then restarts
- Got no CWM Recovery etc.
- Installed the orig D80210A Firmware via Flash Tool
- Can flash anything via LG Mobile Flash Tool
- Can boot into download mode
- CAN NOT ACTIVATE DEVELOPER MODE (nothing happens while ticking on the Build-Number)
- Got NO IMEI (got a EFS Backup via ioroot but without developer Mode I cannot communicate with the G2 via USB-Debugging)
- Facory Reset doesn't change anything
- No network and no GSM (I think cause of the missing IMEI)
Can anybody help?

I've done this 10 times this morning. But I flashed the new kdz file and made the factory reset after flashing. Maybe it will work the other way? Gonna try it tomorrow but don't think this will change anything.
I've got the 49 % thing a few weeks before and the only thing needed was to change the COM Port to 41.
kind regards
