Can't unbrick Optimus l5

Hello, I ran into a problematic brick on my L5...nothing seems to work to unbrick it.
I followed the guides step by step using the KDZ updater and the appropriate firmware for my country, but it doesn't work.
How I bricked it:
I had CM10 installed and perfectly running for a month, so today I decided to attempt an overclock to speed the device up a bit.
So, I downloaded and installed the modded kernel, flashed it using CWM and rebooted the device. After that, the device just keep booting up, showing the LG logo and then a black screen.
Now, after trying to flash the old firmware after going into download mode it just stops on the LG logo with the flare (sun ray effect) spinning around the logo all the time...It's been like that for almost 30 minutes now. I attempted re-flashing it 3 times but nothing seems to work.
What do I do?
Thank you in advance.

It's bootloop. When I had L5 I had the same problem after flashing bricked phone via KDZ.
Do hard reset with key combination. It worked for me. Phone will boot up few minutes.

nop, it's like the device is dead,

Have you tried it:
Hold together volumn (-) + home button, then turn the power on

sorry for the delay, The phone was dead so I send it to the warranty and they send it to LG and then returned working so I just had to reroot it and update it again

so there is no solution to this brick???

This is what I get when I connect the phone by USB.
I just cant get into emergency, DIAG or emergency CS
KDZ the phone connects and then I get a message afterwards PHONE NOT FOUND.
everytime I install the drivers by LG support tool, it keeps giving me the option to install the driver, like I havent done it a hundred times over.
I think there should be a driver somewhere that can be installed but the only people that have this driver are LG tech's. So they can bill you after
send the phone in cause you rooted it. So the one billion dollar question is witch hero will find a way to unbrick this device. We only need a way
to get a driver to install and we are home free. Or maybe the only other option is throwing the phone for sale on internet for spare parts
HELP PLEASE HELP find a way to unbrick this phone. Believe me I flashed and bricked alot of different phones and there was a way out but in
with this phone it seems impossible!!
And there is no mode to put it in in because te volume buttons don't do crap, the home button also, the only time that the phone does show up is when windows tells me it has an unknown device that I for the love of god can't find a driver for. I tried SDK, the LG drivers, but no dice

Did you try emergency mode? (volume up + volume down + power button)
If not, see if you can enter it and then flashing your stock firmware with Software update [KDZ] 1.0.4.4 (KDZ-Flasher).

[Q] Help Needed, LG G2 stuck in boot loop!

Hi everyone, my first time on xda so please be patient.
Ive just bought a 32GB D802 from Gumtree Southampton, UK, turns out the seller bought it from Ebay and it was shipped from Hong Kong.
Was working fine but I wanted to update from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 so I could use Chromecast screen cast with it. Was working fine with my T-mobile sim but no fota update was detected so I decided to use the LG website to update. I installed the lg driver and lg support tool. The phone was detected and update about 1.6GB was downloaded but crashed during installation. Retrying the installation got the same results.
Now the phone just boots to the LG screen and sits there with the notification light changing through different colours. I have tried some videos for pressing buttons to get it into a reset mode or download mode I just cant get anywhere.
The only things I can achieve is either a black screen with the notification light flashing red, or if I holdup on volume the blue download manager (?) flashes up and then quickly turns to a screen of text, reads like eg:
portcharge
resetnfo
portcharge
stall get_descriptor 128 6 1006 0 18
fastboot: processing commands
reset
ep1/out fail nfo=40 pg0=f908700
etc
etc
I have the original box with imei, serial number etc.
I could really use a simple step by step solution but all the ones i see involve using download manager but i dont seem to able to get that going.
Help?!

i did the same thing, and got the same result. i cant get anywhere

[Q] Bricked my LG G2 need help

Hello XDA-Community
Today i accidently briked my G2 (D802 KitKat 4.4.2). I was flashing it because i wanted to unroot it but during the process an error showed up and my phone was dead.
So i tried to fix it with this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48765620#post48765620 but it didn't worked as planned.
Now i have an G2 which is stuck in a bootloop and i can't even reach the recovery or the download mode and i don't have any custom recovery installed.
Anyone who can help me with this get's an 10€/$ PSC. I can't give more because i dont have any money left (16 years old).
Big thanks to everyone who can help me with this
PS: Sorry for my bad english i'm not a native speaker

While you wait for an answer make sure your phone is kept charged.
Have you tried LG flashtool and your stock ROM?

make sure it's off, hold the VOLUME UP button while plugging it into your computer, and that should get it into download mode.
Next try using the TOT method (google it) and voila!

Yeah the problem is that i can't even reach the download mode and my computer doesn't recognize my phone it's just an qshub device. ;(

I had the same issue bricking my lg g2 and i was stuck with the logo and nothing more not even download mode,recovery etc...
The way i got it to stock was i installed the lg g2 drivers and from there on just flashed it with flashtools kdz and got it workking again i think this shoould help you out just plug your phone and install the drivers and use flashtools

Install this driver then report me back or cap screen device manager to me.I will help you for fee.

[Q] LG Leon 4G bricked

Hello Guys,
yor are my last hope!
I tried to root my device but there was no working way for it.
So i decided to use this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/root-t-mobile-lg-leon-5-1-1-lollipop-t3194145) to root my phone. I didn't know that this Telekom software is simlocked so i used another guide to unbrick it. Unfortunately it came out that the software i used at this time was the metro pcs version of the stock firmware.
Now i am looking for a working stock firmware cause every german/france software from this pages (http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=171) and (http://www.lg-phones.org/category/lg-leon) didn't worked for me.
Every time i tried the 3GCT with Emergency and the cdma with cs_emergency way.
But it always ends in a bootloop with the lg logo and the android symbol then restart and long time LG logo.
I don't understand why Telekom and Metro PCS versions worked but the others don't.
It would be great if you could explain me this.
Greetings
Sven

Hi there! I'm in the same situation. :/ Any help?

I have the same problem too. There's already topic about this, but nobody found solution yet. :/

Help
Hey guys, I'm a new member so I can't start my own thread so I figured I'd try this out. I bought a LG risio (Leon) off of craigslist and the dude factory reset it when I handed him the cash but now it's asking me for a e-mail or phone number that was previously used with the phone and now I can't get a hold of the guy. Is there any way to get past this situation or am I screwed?
Please don't hate on me for posting this where I did. I just don't have any other options so if someone can help me please do.

After flash tool installation

The phone is stuck on LG logo and keep on reboot.
Download mode seems functioning, so i tried to use flash tool 2014 with stock .kdz image (Lollipop d30 16gb \ Italy).
