Hello,
My phone is stuck on LG logo and keeps blinking its key lights and then turning on and gets to the LG logo and does the same again and again, I can turn it on in emergency mode, so I tried to do a recovery, but all softwares don't detect it, except one time it was detected but not anymore.
Any help would be appreciated.

Can you reboot into recovery? ( Power + Volume Up + Home ) Or fastboot? ( Power + Home )

Have you installed a custom recovery? If not, you should be able to do a factory reset. Power off the device. Press and hold both volume keys and the Power button for 10 seconds. This only works with factory recovery.

I did before, and I did root my hone and installed custom rom, but still my phone won't boot except into logo loop or recovery mode, Android Flash recovery detected the phone once, I selected by mistake reboot phone into normal mode, the software went unresponsive, I unplugged my phone and replugged it and now no software would detect it.

Sounds like LGMDP or KDZ are about the only things that you can try at this point. With the phone booting to the LG Logo, it's not a permanent brick yet. I would try LGMDP before KDZ as KDZ has been known to brick devices. It's bricked two for me.

Something has changed the way the devices are identified since ICS came out. Have you tried using either of those programs with the device boot-looping on the LG Logo? That will be about the only way the device is detected. You may get lucky enough to have LGMDP detect it. The only other option I know of is to visit a local cell shop that has JTAG equipment.
Uninstall all lg drivers, reinstall the latest drivers and try again after disabling lg modem from control panel-devices

The device is boot-looping on the LG logo. There's not much of a chance of any drivers getting installed or at least the necessary ones.
Hey my Lg ms345 wont boot up.stuck at Lg logo screen or on the battery charging screen. I cant do any resets or modes.

Hi, i managed to brick my phone when i installed cyanogen 7 on it.
i using for it a ClockWork ROM Manager premium and it installed the cyanogen 7 just fine.
i even make a backup for my default rom with it and all works just fine, no error codes, no nothing.
then it reboots to new android, and that damn boot loop start, well i remember how to fix it from my optimus 2x.
i go to recovery mode but everytime i trying to move down or up the lines, screen just go blank and what i remember there is a text line what says something about backspace?!?.
well i just think that this was a minor bug on the recovery and i rebooted the phone.
well, after that i cannot go back to recovery mode, it not recognize any of the keys, not power+vol up, power+vol down.
So i get just that bootloop and i cannot do anything with the phone, Windows 7 recognize the device and install the drivers but i cannot connect to it with any tools what i know.
i cannot use lg programs on it, nontheless any of the rom tools because they not connect to it, i cannot change any of the usb settings from the phone because the OS not start...
if somebody can help me with this, im be very happy
*UPDATE*
I found out that you cannot press power button same time with vol buttons, you just need to let go the power button while you still pressing vol buttons and voila!, you get the recovery console and you can do there what you needed to do
the power button also starting the device but shutdown it too after while if you keep pressing it .
Did you use 3D key + volume down + power? If this doesn't work you can try to flash a kdz

Sorry, I'm not familiar with that device variant. Ok. I see it's a Korean model P500. Power off device. Here are some key combinations
Power + Volume Up + Home = Recovery ( hold all buttons until recovery appears )
Power + Volume Down + Back = Emergency Mode
Power + Volume Down + Home = Fastboot Mode
If number 1 works, wipe cache and dalvik cache again and then reboot. PC should detect device when connected.
If number 3 works, download Android Flash Recovery from my signature and use it to flash a recovery to the device. Complete instructions are in the download package.
Other than that, I dunno what to say.

Download Android Flash Recovery from my signature. It has known good drivers for LG Android devices in the USB folder. If you had drivers installed before this problem, then new drivers won't fix it either.

Hey,
I'm trying to root my T-Mobile LG G2 with stock 4.4.2, but the it just refuses to enter download mode. I've tried the standard method of entering download mode (powering down the phone, holding down the volume button, plugging in the USB cable from my computer), but only the LG logo appears on screen, then the battery percentage appears on screen, and then the phone begins to charge. I've tried using different USB cables and different PCs, but nothing seems to work.
Is there anything I'm doing wrong here? Any extra steps that need to be taken?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Try holding up and power and let go of power when the logo shows then push the and hold power again.

Do you mean hold power and volume up, plug phone in, let go of power and keep holding volume up, and then hold power and volume up again? I tried that, and the LG logo splashes on screen, disappears, splashes again, and then the screen goes black and the LED notification light blinks red. It doesn't pulse, like when it's charging, but it blinks a steady beat. It stops blinking and the phone boots up when I let go of the power and volume up buttons...

When I went into download mode, I only held the Volume Up button and plugged in the USB to the pc. I didn't hold power.
Same problem here ! Recieved d802 v20f OTA and after the update my phones refuses to entering download mode.

I'm on rooted 20e with custom recovery and I entered download mode no problem. Make sure you're pressing only the Volume Up button when plugging in the USB connected to the computer and hold it until you enter download mode.

I'm having the same problem with my LG G2, I can't get into download mode. I've tried holding the power up button and plugging in a USB cable but my phone shows the LG logo and then starts charging the battery, I'm on stock rom, 4.4.2, no custom recovery. Is there a fix for this?
I had a similar problem with my T-Mobile LG G2 where I was rooted and accepted an OTA. It broke root and I couldn't get IOroot or Stumproot to work. Went to flash a downgrade and found the phone wouldn't go into download mode. It was NOT bricked. I finally tried playing around with the LG Mobile Support Tool (B2CAppSetup.exe). Of course it detected that my phone already had the latest firmware from T-Mobile, but then I clicked Options>Upgrade Recovery.
It downloaded for a while then I noticed it had put my phone into download mode (it said "Rooted" in red letters at the bottom). Then it flashed the same firmware over and I immediately tested, it entered download mode right away. But I didn't end up needing that as Stumproot was able to brute force it now after the recovery flash.
Anyway, I couldn't find an answer anywhere else. Most results also have a bricked phone, but that wasn't my issue. This solved my problem and maybe it could work for others.

So this program no longer works and I'm having the same problem. I tried to do this with the LG suit which replaced lg mobile support. It just keeps saying I'm already on the latest firmware. Can anyone help?
I've broken my phone! I was rooted, and was installing a custom rom. It worked fine for a few hours, and now the phone won't boot up in normal, recovery or fastboot modes. All I get is the android logo and then a white screen for a few seconds, and this repeats until i get fed up and turn it off again.
My device is a Vodafone 785 and my pc is running Windows 7 with the latest drivers installed and updated.
When I plug the phone into the computer, it tries to register but the flashtool says the device is not recognized, so I can't re-install my recovery image.
I've been at this for about three weeks now, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get this working again. Can someone please help?

Hi, try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/vodafone-smart-4-mini-killed-vodafone-t2869185
Yes I tried that one and most of the other threads about this damn phone. It won't boot in recovery. I've tried Power button and volume up AND Power button and volume down. All I get is android logo for a few seconds and white screen for another few seconds and this will loop until the end of time. Using SP Flashtool, the computer won't recognize the device when I plug in the USB with either the battery removed or inserted into the phone.

Unfortunately, it sounds like the device may be unrecoverable.
I'm not for giving up. Somehow I'll find a way to fix this thing. :fingers-crossed:

Good luck!
The phone is stuck in a boot loop at the LG screen, and makes the annoying boot sound every few seconds.
I have tried to start in Safe Mode by holding down POWER and VOLUME DOWN until the LG screen hits, then releasing POWER and pressing POWER again. Instead of starting in Safe Mode, the Factory Reset option comes up. I have tried the factory reset but it does fix anything - the phone still is stuck in a boot loop.
Lastly, when I plug it into my computer via USB, my computer does not recognize anything (using both Mac OS X and Windows). I have tried installing the LG drivers from the LG support website on Windows, but they do not recognize the phone when plugged in.
How can I completely wipe everything and start from a fresh installation?
Thanks in advance
Does anyone have any idea on how to proceed yet? From my understanding, the phone is soft bricked since it is stuck in a boot loop. Starting in Recovery Mode (Power+Volume Down) doesn't work, instead the option for a Factory Reset pops up. Doing the Factory Reset does nothing. Should I try rooting the phone? Or should I try using the LG Flash Tool?
You need to return to stock LG firmware using LG flashtool
turn off your phone and connect your usb cable while you hold the volume up button to enter download mode
