Your phone is now died.....
Bring it to LG Service and they will help you.
Don't try to do anything, because it's really died....

hey hi
thanks dude

Don't throw your phone like I did when I bricked my phone. You will need to send it to a jtag service centre and that will fix your phone.

Hello! Yesterday i tried to hard reset my phone then wanted to apply a custom rom, so i pressed volume up, home button and power key. The LG logo appeared and stayed there. Tried to remove battery and let the phone without it for the night. In the morning, the same sympthoms. Tried to flash with KDZ with a lot (when i say " a lot" i mean A LOT ) of firmwares or what are they called. From 2.1 to 2.3.3. Tried every options in the program. Phone won't start. The ANDROID logo appears but freezes there. I let it 30 minutes and nothing. Tried to flash with LGMDP. It's the same. Firmware is installed but the phone just won't start. If anyone could help me i would be grateful

Have you tried to install a recovery and flash a custom rom?

sometimes the most complicated problems have easy solutions
i finally managed to boot the phone with kdz
the custom rom i flashed is called "V20E_00.kdz"
after flashing, i pressed the home button+volume down and then the power button
after ~ 1 minute voila!
hope my post will help anyone with same problems

HardBrick ! Button not work , no thing work
My friend said , we can open phone , insert again fastboot .

You have only few options left.
1. If your phone in warranty then go to LG.
2. If you find any repairing shop, who can use JTAG.
As I got my phone repaired (P500 was in same condition as yours) through JTAG in just 800 inr.

Hi. I had the lg p500 but then I bricked it while using the kdz updater. My phone is out of warranty but I still went to lg service center. The told me it will take Rs 2000 to change the board but I know that a JTAG will fix it. I couldn't' find a place where I can JTAG the device so I am looking for some answers here. Can anyone please guide me to a repair shop near Kolkata? If it is outside, will it be safe to send my phone there via courier as I have seen in some ads from Delhi.

I recommend you forget the girl and move on because you screwed the phone like me. I went to LG service and abused them just for time pass. You can do the same.. Its FREE!!
else you can JTAG your phone which will cost you money or give it to service which will cost you money unless its in warranty

Thatswhy.
I think it says that don't power off or turnoff the process or it will corrupt your phone. Don't quote me on it thou.
There are a few threads in the dev section which tells you about these process. Check them out.

where can i find the dev section or is ther a link so i can go check it out

Dude the exact same thing happened to me! I was doing the baseband update and my computer cut off(faulty wires in my home) T-mobile told me to call LG. LG said I would need to send the phone in. Luckily I found this!

[How TO] Unbrick, hard bricked LG Optimus One (P500)

I was using
Device: LG Optimus One P500
Recovery: ClockworkMod 5.0.2.7
Kernel version: 2.6.35.10
Android version: 4.2.1
Current ROM: GenetICS 9.1.7
Then I downloaded another custom ROM [4.2.1]PACman 19.9.0 [PA][AOKP][CM](seems to be deleted now). Stating thats its some updated version of previous ROM.
Downloaded through XDA app and then opened it directly with ROM Manager to install it.
But unfortunately something went wrong and my phone got stuck on boot logo i.e. LG. :silly:
Then I tried to repair it with KDZ updater using V20c-00 firmware. Everything worked fine. I rooted it through SuperOne click and installed CWM recovery through ROM Manager. :victory:
Till then everything was looking under control.
After that I tried to flash another ROM through CWM Recovery, but again i got stuck on Boot Logo. I tried to repair it once again with KDZ updater as I did it previously, but everytime KDZ updater showed error.
Now my phone is not even responding to anything means not with hard keys combos or something. :crying:
I am not able to find any solution for this, even I searched it a lot.
Please please help me.
Edit: If only LG can help me now, can anyone tell me how much it will cost?

Unfortunately, if you removed the battery after KDZ gives out an error, you have hard-bricked your phone. Only LG can help you now

There is an emergency mode you can attempt, as long as you have the software on your computer to flash factory settings on to your phone.
To access emergency mode, do the following:
1) Take out the battery
2) Have a usb cable already connected to the computer.
3) Hold the power button + volume up + back button AND then connect the usb while holding those buttons
Yellow screen will appear with the words emergency mode in the middle.
At this point, do some forum searching, find some kind of stock image file and LG program to flash stock system on to the phone.
*there is also a forum post somewhere here that I learnt this stuff off of...see if you can find it

I have not had any luck with KDZ or LGMDP with a device stuck in Emergency Mode. I have two P506's that are stuck in Emergency Mode, thanks to KDZ. I have tried every fix I can find here and on several other forums with no luck. I don't want to discourage you, but don't get your hopes up either.
I know this is OT, but...

I remember being successful with the LGMDP in emergency Mode with the P500, even though the stock rom that i used didnt quite work with the phone it got me past the boot logo and gave me access back into my recovery. Once you can at least get into the recovery you are golden (for the most part).

No luck to me guys. As I already mentioned that there is no response from phone, not even emergency mode.
Now I tried with even JTAG still no luck.
Went to LG day before yesterday as that was the only hope. But unfortunately my phone is out of warranty and the cost of motherboard is almost equal to the cost of phone itself.
So, that means I have no other option besides keeping it with me as a precious piece of brick.
Thanks to KDZ_Updater.

Cost of motherboard from LG was 8800/- Indian Rupees. And the total cost of phone was 9999/- Indian Rupees.
But I got it repaired in 1800/- Indian Rupees with JTAG. Thanks to a local mobile repair shop.
But I am afraid that this service may not be available in your country.

I am also from India buddy. But I don't think so I could fund jtag in my city.

search web for OCTOPUSBOX or MEDUSABOX, this are sites for JTAG sales but they offer software for free, maybe you will have luck
or bring it to repair shop, it will cost you around 20$

Hi a_loo!
I Have a LG P500 2.3.3 V20e.
I rooted it today without any problem. Loaded ROM manager, flashed ClockworkMod recovery.
Then I downloaded from Cyanogen cm-7.2.0-p500.zip and placed it on the SD card.
And from ROM manager I did an "install ROM from SD card."
It worked for a while the it froze with a cyanogenmod 7 image. None of the controls & buttons and working.
I'm rather new and trying not to panic.
I'd really appreciate your assistance.

Bricked Lg P500
I hard bricked my LG P500 today. It seems there is no hope... No life at all. Oh well... Life sucks I'm in South Africa and don't want to spend money on older phone. I probably did something wrong with LG KDZ, trying to flash stock ROM.

[Completed] [Q] Black Screen of Death

Hi everyone ! I am new to forum, so please forgive me if I post into the wrong category .
I have a very big problem with my phone (LG L3 Optimus E400) . I have installed a lot of custom roms on it and yesterday I realized that the current rom I was using doesn't receive text messages so I decided to try antoher one and I had the "great" idea to Flash v20 Baseband for flashing SlimBeane610 rom. That was very silly. After I flashed the rom, I rebooted my phone and nothing happened, screen is black all the time. When I press the power button the phone vibrates and the back and menu buttons lights up for 1 second like normal log on, then boom, all goes black again and if I don't remove the battery and I press the power button or any combination (like Reset, Emergency mode) doesn't work. I googled everything, I found something on this forum but not very useful. I tried wit adb but my phone isn't on so it can't be recognized. I tried wit KDZ Updater (until the phone was recognized) but I get a error like WParam: 100 and LParam: 500. When I connect it with USB sounds are playing like normal and Mobogenie wants to connect with it but I can't enable USB Debugging so it's pissing me off . If I can enable USB Debuggins from PC somehow, maybe I can connect phone with Mobogenie and make a restore , a backup or flash another rom, it would be easy If I can go into recovery or emergency mode but I can't . If it would exist a software that can erase everything on the phone when the it's turned off ... .I tried with LG TOOLS, LG PC SUITE IV, LG FLASH TOOLS, Android MULTI TOOLS and nothing(i have the latest drivers installed). Can I make something to it using the external_sd (like put a flash into it, connect it through PC via USB cable and try to flash a rom from command prompt but I don't know the paths). This is a very hard problem, I have a bricked L3 and I don't know hot to unbrick, I think isn't only a soft problem, maybe I should do something with its hardware ? If anyone could help I would really appreciate .
Thanks in advance !
PS : I won't be able to follow this conversation until the next week because I am going to "Primitive Age" right now...oh God, I'm only good to smash things . :crying:

PodGom said:
The most important thing is, can you see the LG logo that shows up in normal boot? If you don't, it'd be either a screen problem or a hard brick. Nobody except LG can fix these problems, and you would have to pay LG some money to fix the phone. But if you DO see the LG logo and your phone stops, you can try the below options.
It just may be bricked, and you could try getting into recovery and flash an alternative ROM. But if that doesn't work, tryLG mobile support tools to get it back to its stock firmware. Good Luck!

No, I can't see the LG logo . If I could saw the LG screen was very easy to fix it. I think the phone it's really dead and I also think that even an authorized service can't fix it . Do you know an approximately price for fixing this issue ? Thanks .
