[Q] Bricked lg optimus one

Hi guys,
yesterday I put evoking (android 4.2.1) on my phone, and I wanted to change it, so I've installed ROM Manager..
After that, I've rebooted on recovery, but, the phone shows only the lg's icon..
So I tried to unbrick this whit KDZ (using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883314) and, I tried all the possibility, but it still not working. Now, it does not turn on!! Can you help me please?
P.S. Sorry for the english I'm using google translate..

remove battery, plug the phone to computer while pressing vol up and power to see if computer recognize it, if it does, flash again via kdz
after reflash, restart and w8 for the phone to boot, it will take some minutes to boot, just be patient

Hey bud,
its simeple.
even i faced the same issue once. Just reboot the mobile and while booting go to the recovery mode (home+vol up + powerbutton). tere u can reinstall the rom. try ICy/PAC MAN. it works beautifully. remember to keep this rom zip file in SD card while rebooting.

If you removed the battery after unsuccessful kdz flash, then your phone is hard bricked and you need to go to LG

[Q] HELP HELP HELP!!!! with Verizon S3

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!!

Xperia E doesn't start after trying to update it

Hello guys, how are you doing?
I'm new to the forum and also to the Xperia cellphones. I'm a big fan of Sony and this was a pending for me.
My E arrived yesterday, and today after fully charging the battery and all, I decided to run the PC Companion to add some music and to check anything I can.
According to the software, there was a new update to it, so, I started to update the Xperia. Everything was going well until an error came up.
I tried to restart the process as the program suggested, but I couldn't do it, and then I thought, ok, maybe I can try it another time.
I unplugged the cellphone, I closed the PC Companion and tried to turn on the phone. Nothing happened.
I removed the battery and tried again. Nothing.
I kept pressed the - volume button to do the update, then I've found out that I was flashing (I think) the Xperia in order to get the newest version available. Am I right? Sorry if this seems too novice, but I'm really worried right now.
When I try to turn on the Xperia it just vibrates for half a second and a green light shows up.
I have NO IDEA what to do, and I will HIGHLY appreciate your help.
Thank you so much in advance.
Eager.

Hey AGuyfromH3LL, thanks for your answer, but the thing is, I disconnected the phone when the error appeared, and I had no other thing to do but to remove the phone from the computer.
I have been looking for information about flashing it, and I downloaded the EMMA soft and stuff, and I've found that my Xperia is locked.
According to the info I've been reading, if I do this process, I'll have the E running up again, but I need a number from it, the issue is that I have no access to the phone right now because is not turning on.

I'll let you know.

Ok, I had no luck.
The first time I tried it never finished, it stayed checking the header, And now it shows me several different results.
And I'm keep trying.
At the beginning, it showed that the device was recognized in flash mode, but it never showed me that it was an Xperia E, so I looked for the drivers, but now, for example, supposedly is flashing the device, but it's stuck at finishing at ending flash session, and it's been several minutes.
I don't know what do to really.

[Q] Brick with ROM Z2 MOD based onCM11

Hi, first excuse my poor english.
Well, i did something very wrong, and the XL is brick now.
The phone is with bootloader locked. It says not allowed.
So, i install root with a .bat file in windows. Everything ok.
I install the CWM the same way. Everything ok.
So, i download the ROM Z2 MOD based on CM11. I dont knew that i need install the CM11 first, yes, i know, i read it just now in the comments, so, i install/restore that ROM in my phone, but now, just dont turn on. The phone dont do anything, just a little vibration, a little and nothing more.
So, how can i fix it? I have a backup file of my phone in the memory, but i cant get to CWM to restore it.
How can i fix this mess?
THanks in advance.

Use this. This is one of the small tutorials i made long back. Try to read through and understand how to use the flash tool and fastboot. Use what you have learned to get your phone set back.
All you have to do is flash the stock firmware via flashtool.

I recently fixed a bricked XZP with Flashtool, get the latest stock firmware from Xperifirm if you dont have on hand an older hackable firmware from XperiFIX
in Xperifirm setting, set it to extract firmware automatically once downloaded to speed things up,
In flashtool/Tools/bundles/Create, select source folder (your downloaded extracted firmware)
in device "double click" & select your phone model from the list.
branding: add as your download example, custom_uk
version: firmware version copy & paste from download
copy all files from file list to firmware content & click create
this will build a .ftf flash tools file which can then be flashed to your bricked device
just follow the prompts in flashtool....
worked for me,
good luck

Ofcourse i have and flashed .34 amd .75 frimwares with both neflasher and flashtool but none of them fix my problem.is it something that dosent change when we flash stock frimwares.

Lol. Sony phones are really hard to brick. You really can't brick a Sony phone even if you intentionally wanted to. I've even had a failed flash (phone disconnected while flashing) and was still able to flash using flashtool.
Anyways, I know this has been said before, but what happens after you flash using flashtool? Did you check all the boxes for a full wipe?
BTW, bad mouthing a phone just because you can't solve your problem won't help you.
