Hey sunny I've been through this situation before. Make sure you batery is charged (use the McGayver Method or universal charger). Then boot in the bootloader (vol up + power button) and connect your device to the computer. RSD lite will recognize it as "S Flash OMAP 3630"
BE CAREFUL when you flash a sbf. I'm trying to revive my defy for months because of wrong sbf file... well, hope I helped you and sorry for my english.

[Q] [L5] Problem flashing official Jelly Bean

Guys I really need this so please help. I have CM10 flashed on my phone, but now after the official JB is out I want that ROM. There is no working zip of this ROM (wont recognize sim card) so i have to flash it through KDZ. Unfortunately, KDZ just wont recognize my phone (phone not found). I dont know if the problem is that Im using CM or it's my PC drivers. Can you please tell me how can I do this properly? Thank you.

First of all,in order to get your device recognized,you must enter it in emergency/download mode.CM can't be recognized just like stock Rom.
Just follow this guide.

when I do this then my phone just boots as normal into CM10... any ideas?
EDIT: I just wasn't fast enough, it seems. My restore still isn't working though, with the KDZ updater still not finding the phone...
The only way is to enter your phone in emergency mode...Well try to pull out the battery and connect your phone with a cable at your pc..before you connect it keep pressing vol+..
If it works your phone will boot in emergency mode...then you can flash via kdz. .
Give a try again,and inform me..

I've tried with emergency mode several times but recognizing the phone is mission impossible. Can you post a link with the official drivers, or something that could be the problem?

Download the official drivers from the LG website and it should work, also try different USB ports on your pc. I think installing the drivers fixed my issue.

- In the bottom of the next screen press the Backup and reset button.
- Press the factory data reset.

If you flash any modem , make.sure it is compatible with the firmware version otherwise you will hard break you device!!.
One more thing ,,the moment you flash it ...your device will reboot to download mode , then in this point you have to hold the power button for few second till it turn off . After that turn it on , the Samsung logo will show up ....and it may take time untill it move to the mobile odin mode ,,,, just wait for the process...dont ever turn it off again otherwise you may soft break your device
Also mobile odin only work in stock kernel otherwise it will not detect your device . Thats why it won't run in custom rom that only run in its custom kernel like cm or what ever rom ... this is the disadvantage
But the advantage is that.. it will never trigger the flash counter .

Hye guys, I bought note 2 from malaysia. Been using it more than 3 month then my phone constantly freeze and one day, it brick overnight while I leave it to charge. When it turned on it just stuck on samsung logo. Hard reset is undoable as it only show "Downloading" in the recovery while in download mode it just as it is. My phone is completely stock, no root ,no flash ,nothing, just stock. So I try to flash through odin but it always fail with "no pit partition" no matter what firmware version I use, another usb port ,another computer is brought up the same result. The phone can charge fine with red light indicator and battery animation. Does anyone with the phone have the same symptom and manage to fix it?Im in uk and cant rma as my phone is malaysia only warranty from SME?
*if you think Im annoying ignore me please and if you got definite solution tell me please*

Odin wont detect my device, its in PBL download mode
I tried making a USB Jig but with no luck
Ive also tried qdload.pl with MPRG8086.hex still nothing (failed to execute becuase no reply)
Could I try shorting the emmc chip from being detected to force sd card boot???
Doesnt EFS have to be on the sd card too???
