Boot back into recovery and do a dalvic /user data wipe then a cache wipe then re instal your rom. make sure the rom you installed is for your phone.

HI ALL,
i have unrooted my phone and then i,ve updated my phone but i forgot to remove clockworkmodrecovery now when i reboot my phone it keeps getting in recovery mode
Is there anyone who can help me?
I have the exact same problem!
I've tried restoring a backup, rebooting the phone, turning it off, install update from sdcard, formatting cache...
None to any avail. Please help!
I've tried about every option now, I've even tried downloading a ROM and flashing it to the phone. It still boots into Clockworkmod.
Can I throw my phone in the trash now?
Edit:
I don't have windows XP, so nope to unbricking your O3D guide.
Sdcard
I can only put the rom at my external sdcard i don know how to put someting in the internal flash
I've now tried flashing KingDroid.
It's still in the bootloop.
Why does it seem like no one even cares about this thread?

People care but if they don't have an answer for you it's not much they can do, tried pulling the battery I guess and using CWM to reset battery data and reseting to factory defaults etc?
People arent answering because there is already a guide on the forum explaining exactly how to fix this.

I have tried about every single option in the CWM menus, and I've tried pulling the battery at random times.
None of them worked.
I'm now going to remove Arch Linux from my PC to make room for windows XP. Sorry for my previous outrage.
Next time remove CWM from your phone before updating...
I just installed windows XP and followed the guide to the letter. I am now stuck with the firmware update screen. How do I get rid of this?
Flash rom
I,ve managed to flash the rom with the original v10D but itś still booting in clockwork recovery mode pfffff
These phones really are hard to unbrick.
Tell me please how to exit Rekaveri. Reloading and pulling the battery does not helps, it means everything? brick?

If you're stuck at the "updating firmware" screen like me, you're simply ****ed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197108
use LG vip service.
I just called them, they said they'd "assess" my situation and that they'd call me back to tell me whether they'll replace it...
restore
Hi,
I have managed to restore a backup image but he is still booting in clockwork recovery what am i forgetting ????
Sincerely Snellie1972
Recover
I have recovered the phone with clockwork recovery with stock file
Optimus 3D 10D pre-rooted CWM restore but still it goes in too clockwork recovery at boot
What am i doing wrong ????
Thanks in advance
snellie1972
Unfortunately I was also able to get passed the clockwork screen but the phone is stuck on the update just like anybody else. I contacted the store where I bought it from and they sent me a prepaid box already to send it to them for repair/replacement.
As everyone says, at the moment it's not possible to recover from that state, sorry snellie.
If you still get the clockwork, then just follow these instructions but even so, you wont get passed the software update screen.
Flash
I have managed to flash using first de KDZ tool from LG en after that i have used te LGMOBILE update tool and just put in my imei and serial and it was downloading and restoring my phone so far so good but when it was Finished without any error it is still haging on update software ...
I don't understand why it is not going any further
Greetz
snellie1972
It's almost as if this firmware update screen is fake and an indicator for LG to see you ****ed your phone up.
Is there any known hacker even working on this?

Did you remove the battery while the phone was performing the factory reset? If yes, that is a big NO NO! You can brick some Android devices (Samsungs especially) by doing that. Turn the phone on again by holding the down button and allow it to complete the factory reset procedure.
If it still won't boot then you need to flash Clockworkmod Recovery and then use that to perform a proper factory reset.
If that doesn't work you are going to need to flash a nandroid backup of the stock rom to get it all back to square one. After you are done if you want stock recovery you can use the One Click flasher to restore the stock recovery.
Don't take the battery out in a situation like that.

hello all i am nik,
i just have a few questions which i hope can quickly be answered.
i have an LG Optimus T/One p509
i installed the cyanogenmod_thunderg 6.5 something
it worked just fine
until i tried to find and install Gapps because google play/store was not on the phone and wouldnt work correctly when i found it
it rebooted as it was supposed to but now once it hits the black screen with the LG logo it just stays there
Clockworkmod is on it from what i know.
original recovery wont work and for some reason when i try to recover from power off with clockworkmod
the lg logo will simply repeatedly flash on and off
i understand it may be bricked but can someone help me fix this issue?
and possibly once thats done help me resolve the google store issue?

hello nik..
i dont know which baseband are you in?if upgraded from lg then you are in new baseband.pls mention that..
i founded the link..try this not sure that this will solve your problem.but try....
step 1:Shut down your phone and boot into Recovery by pressing the Volume Down, Home and Power buttons together. You can move through the options using the volume up/down keys. Use the Search button to select the option.
step 2:Go to the main recovery menu and follow the below steps one after another to wipe data, cache and system.
‘Wipe Data/Factory Reset’ –> Yes
‘Mounts and Storage’ –> Format /system –> Yes.
‘Advanced’ –> Wipe Dalvik cache –> Yes
reboot and download rom manager from play store.
i think the gapps you installed is not compatible with this rom
from the rom manager you can download corresponding gapps or you have to find correct one and install once again....
all the best...
solved.

Hello XDA.
See, here is the problem ...
My friend has a LG Optimus One P500, he asked me to root it. I succesfully rooted his phone.
The other day, he send me a message that he bricked his LG Optimus One P500, he said that he installed a font with ROM Toolbox.
I went to his place, the phone was totally bricked, we looked all across the internet, every solution we found ... Did just not work.
So I came here, the place of all android knowledge lives to ask this, How can I unbrick this blazing phone.

Have you tried booting into recovery ( Power + Volume Up + Home ) and then wiping cache and dalvik cache?
Hope you have installed a custom recovery. If you have only rooted, maybe a factory reset would help.

With stock recovery you should be able to perform a factory reset by pressing and holding the Power button and both volume buttons for 10 seconds. If the USB drivers were previously installed, you might be able to boot the device in to fastboot mode and then use Android Flash Recovery to install a custom recovery.

Thanks mate, I will give it a shot. I will reply you later.
I have the ATT model g2. it was running android 4.2.2 and i rooted. i got an OTA notification yesterday so i unrooted it, and uninstalled busybox. and went ahead with the update. now, my phone does not turn on. you go to turn it on and the lg logo flashes for a second or two, then a black screen, if you look closely you can tell that the screen panel is still lit, but nothing shows up. It will not boot to download mode, and it does boot to the (stock lg, not custom) recovery, but when i hit the power button to do the hard reset, i get the black screen again, and no boot. when i connect it to my computer, it gives me a bunch of popups saying that i need to reformat a drive before i can use it, somewhere around 15-20 of them? ive run out of ideas to fix it. any and all help is appreciated. :crying::crying::crying::crying: would really like my g2 back, im back to my old phone which was a nexus 5 that has a terribly cracked screen, and i really like to get the g2 back rather than having to pay to get my screen replaced.

No it was stock recovery. I tried installing recover with the twrp app but it didn't work so it was a stock LG recovery.

did you try to factory reset in stock recovery along with wiping the usual,cache and dalvik?
Tried using the stop recovery factory reset, that's all lg's recovery can do. It says factory reset processing like normal but then the screen goes black again. LG stock recovery can't wipe the cache and dalvik afaik
