Hi everybody. I have a Optimus L9 which i had rooted with the help of this website thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439667. I was having a fine time with it and decided to install Chainfire3d (Yes I know it said not compatible with the version of phone I had i just hadn't seen it) I proceeded to install the thing it prompted me to install (Yes, I know I sound like a noob because I know nothing about this) When rebooting it got stuck at the LG booting screen. I';d prefer not to factory reset it and I'd like to keep my apps and what not. I also downloaded (onto my computer) this Android SDK manager thing from here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html. Please let me know what I can do. P.S Im a major noob when it comes to this so please use very basic terms or define what your talking about when you explain something. Thanks so much guys I hope we can fix this!

Thanks for this reply. I cant seem to figure out how to get it into recovery mode...I was trying to unlock the boot loader but I couldnt get that to work (I wanted to use the clockwork mod, I thought that would help)

Hey! from my phone, it freezes on the samsung image when is boots up. It stays there forever. I'm pretty sure it is bricked. I rooted my phone, then tried to install some kind of font switch that is required for a root phone. After that it told me to restart my phone, did exactly that, and now my phone is stuck on the samsung logo screen. I have odin, and now im just looking for a stock rom for it. I did a factory reset, but that didnt work either. Can anybody help me?

oh yea... its for verizon by the way.
Did you install the verizon update manager? You should be able to do a repair. As for the stock Rom we are working on that right now.
Oh and you can follow us on these sites so you can keep up with what we're doing with the phone:

WELL... thanks. And no i didn't install the verizon update manager.. What's that? And please let me know as soon as the stock ROM comes out or any word of it,... or yea... hahaha. im really stuck on it. I really wish things could work out.
You'll find the Verizon Update Manager at the 13th post of the 2nd link I posted here. You'll also need a Dropbox account.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902170&page=2
Before you do that, however, can you get into recovery mode? Hold down the home button, VOL Up, and the power button to enter into recovery mode.
If you cannot enter recovery mode, please be patient as we try to get a stock ROM uploaded.
You also can help us. Since your phone is rooted, you can make a backup of the stock recovery if it still works. If you're familiar with ADB you should try looking at the last post of my link: you'll see a command there to extract the recovery.

well i can.. i can get into recovery mode. Thats how i tried the factory reset... and it didn't work. I am currently at school... so ill try to do the ADB command this weekend. I was looking at that post earlier. but.. as i said before, but my phone won't fully turn on. It's stuck at the "samsung" logo. that's where it stops. Just curious is the Verizon update manager the same as VZAccess Manager? And the link on the post its the bootstrap helper.exe... that one am i correct?
Verizon has several names for its features but I do belive the VZ Access manager is different. I just pulled up the app and found that it's actually callied "Verizon Upgrade Assistant"...which really means "kiss your custom rooted ROM goodbye" in the future when everything works well.
I have someone trying to upload a stock ROM and I'll get back to you when you can download the ROM. My phone's bricked as well so all I can do is sit, wait, and gather information. I've been without this blasted phone for nearly two weeks so don't feel too bad; you're not alone.
I appreciate the help you can give for the recovery option as if we all can get some stock ROMs extracted, the REAL devs can start having fun with this phone...hopefully we will too.

Just got official TWRP support after working on this with a dev for about a month. In the link below, use v6 or v7. The official version should be out soon after this final testing that we;re doing.

Hi everyone I am a newbie when it comes to rooting phone and installing a Roms, I recently rooted my S3 and everything went smooth except my WIFI did not work so after so research it seemed as if I did not do it correctly but i followed all the steps. So i decided to try a new Rom I put the Rom on my S3 rebooted into recovery and wiped the phone and the cache as well. I then loaded the Rom that I downloaded from XDA and showed to work with my S3. I used Clean ROM 5.6 and I am sure I jacked something up. Well after I went through the install it went back to my recovery screen and looked like it was asking me to update my sd zip file or something so I updated it and restarted my phone. I am now getting the message "System software not authorized by verizon Wireless has been found on your phone". I thought that the SU privileges were removed or somehow the phone became unrooted so I tried to re-root my S3 and everything shows to go through successful but I cannot get passed this screen, I can get to download mode but i cannot get to recovery at all, I am not sure what I jacked up but its jacked. Any help would be greatly appreciated very much Thanks.
so you say that you cannot open your recovery? try pressing home button, volume up, and power button all at once. try this, if it does not work,i have some more
tricks up my sleeve!!

Don't mess with a new phone if you don't know exactly what you are doing.
Now your phone is soft-bricked.
Download this (FOR GT-I8260) or this (FOR GT-I8262) stock firmware and use ODIN to flash it to your phone, as described in this post (thanks to Omkar$).
I am not responsible if you hard brick your phone.
Soft-bricking was your mistake, and there is no reason to be mad at us.

Exactly.
Good luck in the future.
when i press vol down+home+power button it says factory mode.....how to go to download mode then????
I recommend using Samsung Kies for reverting to stock ROM. Just boot in download mode and select Forward update and initialization

Power + vol key will not get you to recovery/reset?
it does. Now im in a recovery-loop. Phone boots to select language, freezes and restarts...
You have to get into fastboot mode (power and vol+) and flash the stock ROM, using these instructions:

You will have to push a rom with ADB in twrp recovery. Spend some time and learn what your doing before you just go and flash things. You very well could end up with a brick and will have to buy a new buy.

Be careful with what your doing. Flashing your device is not something to take lightly or done for fun. You could end up with a brick device and have to buy a new device as you now have no warranty.
