[How TO] Unbrick, hard bricked LG Optimus One (P500) - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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...
This is the kind of stuff that we like to see from New Members here at XDA. This is the right way to get your 10 posts. Keep it up

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).

Thanks shinobi. I've been lurking xda for a while now since i got the p500, just recently i really wanted to post in rashed's thread for issues/bugs i found with the cm10.1 rom

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.
What is your location?

lg phoenix p505 softbrick fix
had an lg phoenix that kept giving status 7 errors when I tried to flash in recovery, failures in fastboot, and normal boot just went to black screen
Then I found "how-to-fix-lg-phoenix-fastboot-issues" a page that has working KDZ instructions (after a fashion), now it boots to an ugly fuzzy blue bad driver ancient version of android, but hey, it's alive again!
I would post the link, but spam filter prevents it. it was over at lg-phones dot org.

Can you tell me contact of mobile of repair shop

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$

Could you pls tell me if this procedure helps in my situation?

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.

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

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

JTAG? Isn't that a boot loser language? Or is that called JTAX? It's something J... Anyway.. Ill be helping you guys who have bricked your phone... Ill be showing you how to take apart your phone and repair the boot loader. If you can't do it yourself you can always send the phone to me and I'll repair it...

Donations would much be appreciated too... ^_^ subscribe to my YouTube channel to learn more. Natedog6991 the repair for you guys will be free but you will have to pay for shipping... :0

[Q] LG Optimus One bricked after failed reflash

Hello XDA-Developers
Before I am writing this, I want to say that I am relative jung and my English is not the best.
1 Year ago I rooted my phone, it worked great and so on.
After a half yeah I updatet the firmware on 2.3.3, but the root was still there.
No Problem, yesterday I wanted to install the cyagon-mod and I wanted first to flashback to the old Baseband @ 2.2.2.
I use the KDZ Updater and try to flashback to 2.2.2, but I followed the tutorials here, but at the time of flashing I
got a problem! The KDZ Updater sayed there was a fail. I attached the log. (Maybe the kdz file was damaged?)
I pulled it out and I took out the battery.
......
Now I think my LG Optimus one is bricked.
I if I try to start the phone nothing happend, if I try to get to the recovery mode it won´t give me a signal.
If I plug it into my PC with LG united Mobile Drivers installed it won´t get to the recovery mode.
I saw that I have a C++ runtime enviroment is that a Problem?
Is there probaly a method to repair the phone? Or can someone at my local mobilephone shop repair my mobile

by power on is lg logo comes
if not something or the other happens like emergency mode download mode if not
then its hard bricked
and i think u have your warranty over so just buy a new phone the company will charge u too much if u are hard bricked
No.. phone repair stores cant help you.
You have to do it yourself or take it to LG service centre.
First press Back + Vol up + Power button.. see if you get yellow emergency mode.
If no your phone is hard bricked.. no way to repair.. but stil search the forum.. see if you can make it work.
See if this helps
If emergency mode is working.. then you can easily recover your phone.
Here
Flash the recovery and then flash any rom of your choice!!

ClockworkMod Recovery Stuck in Boot

Hello. A couple of days ago, I rooted my phone. I have no idea what happened, but my phone did a complete reset. I couldn't download anything as it followed with a -110 error. I flashed my phone with a ROM using CWM, and it worked :laugh: ! But I used the wrong Android version. So, I tapped the install button to update my phone. Well now i'm stuck on the CWM boot screen and I have no idea how to pass it. I plug my phone into the computer, and my computer makes the noise to signify that it was plugged in. I want to reload the ROM but I can't access the phones files. Iv'e Google soooo much, but I can't seem to find an answer. My phone is a LG Optimus F3 using Virgin Mobile. I'm kind of a noob to this stuff so help is GREATLYYY appreciated!

[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 ?

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 .
Hi,
You should definitely ask the experts who own your device for help, Here...

There's any hope for hard bricked Moto G3? (no fastboot, Qdloader 9008)

Hi guys its the 3rd time that i post here in the forum hopping to restore my "dead" Moto G3 XT1543 1GB RAM Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916).
Some days ago I've unlock my phone bootloader in order to install CM14.1 and i did it with success! but my sim card wasn't working, so, I tried to look for a solution. And I found a video on youtube that showed the supost fix for this issue, but i was wrong. I've flashed the file which broke my phone immediately and now my phone doesn't do ANYTHING!! Well, at least it shows on my computer as QDLoader 9008 but for now on I dont know what I have to do! I know that the easiest way to fix it is buying another motherboard, but I think that still hope for someone to find the way to fix it! Well, if the pc recognizes the processor so there's something to be done right?
I had searched all over the internet during this week, and I found some interesting possible ways to fix it, but im not a developer so I need help and opinions from other people.
1)The first way was to change the mode to 9006 aka diag mode though some files wich in theory allows you to acces eMMC partition and restore all the 29 inside partition and recover your phone. The problem is: I don't know how to change it to diag mode, but yea i have the needed files, and i don't have the tool to acces the eMMC of the phone and i dont have a backup of the partitions to write over the corrupted ones.
2)The second way was to use this tutorial *http://www.droidsavvy.com/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/* that i still havent tried since my phone isn't with me right now. So, in this supose way we can contact the phone through a tool called QFIL and try to "Inject" the bootloader or whatever, in the phone to foce him into a bootloop and so enabling the fastboot mode which allows you to install a rom later on. well the problem for this one is, i dont know if it works on your moto g3 but i gonna try. (if you try this option tell me and i gonna upload the needed files because the folder avaliable in the link contais files for the processor Snapdragon 610 and Moto G3 processor is a 410)
3) The third way is a Jtag repair in a authorized store, but i dont think Moto G3 have a jtag fix (im posting this possibility because i could be wrong)
4) In this way could be a updated Blank Flash actually used to hard unbrick the Moto G1 and I Guess the G2? But im not a developer and I dont know too much about programing, but i'm sure someone out there is a pro
5) Use the QPST which is kinda the same thing as use a eMMC tool? ( again im not a dev ) and from what i got, is used to config all your phone from scratch. would be good if there's a tuto out there
6) Sit and wait till Motorola release the MBM-CI 5.0 which from what i got is used like the Blank Flash or used to make a Blank Flash idk
AGAIN!!! IM NOT A DEV, THIS IS JUST SOME WAYS THAT I FOUND OUT THERE ON THE INTERNET WHICH COULD BE USED TO FIX YOUR BELOVED MOTO G3!! SO, I'M SHARING ALL MY RESEACH WITH YOU GUYS BECAUSE IS A SHAME HAVE TO DUMP MY DEVICE LIKE THAT OR HAVE TO EXPEND LIKE R$ 500 IN A NEW MOTHER BOARD WHICH IN DOLLAR ITS LIKE 1600 U$D (this is Brazil guys yea it's a horrible country T_T ) SO I HOPE THAT THIS POST HELPS SOMEBODY AND IF YOU GOT SOME INFO SHARE TO HELP US TRY TO FIX THE PHONE!

You'll need blankflash for this device, that's the only thing which will take it back to bootloader mode so you can flash a firmware. Blankflash is usually found in stock firmwares, however the chances are kinda low

yeah, you can try but the models are different and also the partitions inside the phone... try it out and if it works you can post here
No u can't try the Moto g2 firmware..... As Moto g2 is also waiting for MBM CI 5 file for lollipop and Motorola is not releasing those file needed for blankflash
Sorry to bump needlessly but has there been any progress in this regard?
Has anyone found a solution or blankflash files?
I managed to hardbrick my device while trying to resize the system and userdata partitions (stupid, I know)

No... And just like previous Moto devices, it is unlikely we will ever get the necessary files.
Same situation, any updates?
I'm currently facing the same situation with XT1543, it ran Marshmallow 6.0 stock (came with Lollipop) and suddenly it hard bricked (last time i checked there were no software updates and even if there were, the phone would not restart itself to update). I ran blankflash but the results were these:
greeting device for command mode
opening device: \\.\COM3
OKAY [ 0.001s]
greeting device for command mode
FAILED (blank-flash:greet-device:error reading packet)

If you can't get to the bootloader, it's toast... we do not have the proper files to do a Qload reflash, and the chances of getting them are near zero.
Try the usual... drain the battery and hold Power+Vol Dn (normal method to access bootloader) or press and hold Power+Vol Dn for 15-30 seconds, if you can't get to the bootloader there is NO recovery method available. Sorry.

+1 on this.
The only other thing I would do is take it apart and detach one wire from battery and short that lose wire to the other wire (short the phone, NOT the battery!) for 15 sec or so and reconnect wire to battery and put phone back together and try boot to bootloader (power plus vol-dn). If no go, at that point if it were worth it I would give it to ATT to fix, or toss it in the drawer for parts.

If there is no bootloader and the only thing that can be seen on the computer is QdLoader mode, it's done... Send it to Moto for repair or send it to the recycler, there is no fix we can do.
