Allright, well I am a new andriod user, and about a month or so ago i rooted my phone. I am very technology minded. Found a page that showed me how to do it and a link to a doanload for a folder with the needed files. Anyways I have a lg optimus lte through bell. Yes I am in canada. So last week i decided to unroot my phone seeing as I wasnt using the super user features that I put on the phone. Needless to say now my wifi will not turn on and I have followed to the letter the instructions on how to factory reset the phone and when I do, i get to the factory reset part, hit the power button twice and then the screen flashes to the lg splash screen and just sits there frozen. I do a battery pull and the phone works but it is still not reset or rooted. Anyways what I am trying to say is i need some help reseting this phone back to factory so i can get full use out of it. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've got the same problem. The phone boots up to the LG logo, then the screen goes black while the led flashes green/blue on and off. Hard factory reset will go through the motions up to a point before it looks like it fails. The green droid appears on screen when doing a reset for a short period of time before going to the boot problem. Download mode is not available and I've seen a couple of other posts with the same problem. The LG mobile suuport tool doesn't seem to think the phone needs an upgrade or a fix. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The support cant even identify if my phone is connected to the computer, i try the upgrade and it says phone is not connected to computer. I dont know what to do and ive worked on phones a while now. Please someone help.
I'll start from the beginning, II was rooted and I wanted to speed up my phone so I tried to use SWAP. I never got it to work for some reason but then out of no where I was on the home screen and then my phone rebooted but wouldn't start again, it got stuck at the T-Mobile 4g LTE splash screen. I was still able to go into recovery and all that. So I decided to format my phone. The. That screwed it up even more because then it got stuck at the Samsung Galaxy light start up screen. So then I used Odin and flashed a stock rom. But that still didn't help it got stuck at the T-Mobile splash screen again. I went into recovery and it said era error. I managed to fix that and that went a way. Then after an hour of searching I was able to boot up my phone because some forum said all I needed to do was spam the volume up and down buttons at startup to get it to work. After that I set up my phone but then I was getting any 4G and I couldn't make any calls but it said I had 5bars. I kept getting a message saying not registered on network. Nothing would make it work. I called T-Mobile and I went into setting tried fixing my apn, tried connecting to T-Mobile again but nothing. They just called me back today and after I gave them my i di number they said it's not working because I rooted my phone. It doesn't have a bad i eu or anything it's just not working. I did see that my imei on my account is different than the imei my actual phone displays. I am able to do wifi calling and that works. So obviously something got jacked up when I formatted my phone. I want to know if anyone can help. I didn't back up my efs because I didn't know I had to, the only thing I've rooted before was my tablet. I have a Samsung Galaxy light SGH-T399 . Can anyone help. Ik my thread was long but I wanted to kae sure I got every little detail.

Good news is, that we have a forum for your device on xda: Samsung Galaxy Light Discussion.
Bad news is that it seems that your IMEI (and maybe your EFS data) is corrupt/lost now.
Here is a guide how to recover your IMEI: [GUIDE] Recover your IMEI in 9 steps.
Hopefully it works on your phone too.
Good luck !

I rooted my phone not too long ago and today during a quick reset to update some modifications I made on Gravitybox, it has gotten stuck in a sort of boot loop. I've tried wiping the cache in modified recovery, booting in safe and download mode, and even resetting factory defaults. But every time I have tried those things, after the LG and android logo screen appear and the Verizon logo screen appears like during a normal boot, it appears the phone is stuck at that Verizon logo screen. I am thoroughly baffled as what to do, because I cannot even manage to get download mode.. I have looked thoroughly throughout the internet but cannot seem to find anyone who has had this problem, so, I decided that maybe someone here might know what to do.
Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can provide!

Kudos on fixing it yourself.
We have a forum for the Verizon LG G4

and further questions can be asked in the Q&A thread.
Happy browsing and thread closed.
Hello, My friend just told me about this website and all the wonderful experts on here. I have an LG G3 (d850)AT&T/Cricket. I made a huge mistake. I tried having my phone rooted through oneclickroot.com . Their technician was very unsucessful. In the process, once my screen reached firmware update, the phone froze at 0% , and while it was still at 0%, it started to reboot and the screen got stuck by the AT&T logo screen. Now whenever i turn on my phone it will not get further than the AT&T logo screen, it just freezes at that screen forever. It seems i have to factory reset the phone. However i have extremly important information on it that i do not want to lose. I was thinking of sending my phone to a data recovery business but that will be very costly . If there are any experts that can give me any solutions , I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you very much

There's honestly no way to retrieve the data unless you had it stored on an SD card. If there was a way to retrieve it you be looking prob 2 grand or more for data recovery for something like that.

Custom Recovery
"Thanks for the response! Is there a way I could check if a Custom Recovery was installed (Bootloader? ADB?) on the phone? If there was, could I boot into it without losing the data?"
