New phone

I have just recieved the phone and its driving me nuts. When i switch the wifi on and then try to switch it off it says its switching off but stays like that for next 4 hours and wont switch off! Need to reatart the phone every time. Today battery was full at 10:30 and by 12 was 48% wifi off data off screen brightness at 50% bt off watched 1 minute of 3d video. When tried to dial a number it just stoped and nothing happend so had to restart it again. Its a factory lg handset without simlock or any branding on it. Yesterday had an update 5mb so did it and thats about it. Any ideas?

It does. Just go to customer support menu and then click on emergency mode , it's the last option to the bottom.
Also the wifi issues are not normal. Try if they will be fixed after reflashing the device. If not then maybe the device is defective. Also the battery drains really fast the first month. That's normal for smartphones and especially for this phone.

Connect the usb cable to the computer.
Shut down your phone and connect it to the usb cable.
Then wait a bit and it will start up by itself.
Shut it down again.
While connected to the USB cable and completely turned off, press the volume + button at the side of the phone and at the same time press the power button.
Wait till you see that the LG mobile tool has found the phone.
The phone screen will be completely black but don't worry about it.
Run the emergency mode menu again and re-type your IMEI.
See if it works that way.

Search the forum for guide unbrick optimus 3d kdz method I think u need v20g but I am not sure with the Korean model
sent from my acidhazard thrill

this phone lg optimus 3d (lg su760) just seems dead. it won't turn on, it won't go to recovery mode, i won't show battery charging status, i won't connect to laptop. laptop does make sound like its trying to connect with then phone. but after few attempts it just gave up.
i was in uk, but right now in Pakistan. i showed it to few mobile phone technicians and they said that its BOOT ROM DAMAGED. can anyone please tell me who can i connect this phone to laptop??? i don't know much about ROM, About KDZ or anything. but i think once my phone get connected with pc then i might be able to do something with it.
what do you thinks guys? will i be able to recover my phone or its just gone now..totally dead?? please reply.

At the moment you have no way to recover it by connecting to laptop,you need a new board.

Sorry, search doesn't work right now and i found this thread via google only. Hoping someone can pull magic out of their $$$.
I have an LG Optimus 3D P925G (but using the ThiaiZ ROM for a long time). Yesterday i was going to experiment with another ROM, so i copied some files from the SD to External SD via mass storage, rebooted into recovery and did a backup (CWM), and then forgot i wanted to copy a couple more files, just to be safe. So i rebooted into the phone, connected via mass storage, copied my files and turned the phone off. A bit later, i went to turn the phone on into recovery so that i can flash a new ROM and nothing happened. Phone won't turn on, no screen, nothing!
So here is what i tried, with two separate batteries.
1. Hold down 3D, volume down and power
2. 3d, volume up, power
3. volume down, power
4. volume up, power
5. home, volume up, power
6. home volume down, power
7. Took battery out, held the power button for more than 10 seconds, but the battery back and tried above options
8. All of the above while connected to PC via USB
-Some caused my PC to connect for half a second and go into continuous loops (you hear the PC trying to connect, but half the sound it usually makes, and then again and again...)
-So PC can't see it, ultimately
9. Tried above options with battery out and then putting battery in
I got nothing left to try...any ideas? Magic?
But i am guessing an expensive brick/paperweight is what i have.
Thanks!!!

Follow this step by step.
Install driver.
Use another cable.
Open Windows device manager.
Remove battery.
Insert battery.
Hold vol+.
Insert cable.
If it gets recognized it will show you LG communication port in device manager.
Release vol +.
If you cant see that and all you get is OMAP4430 you probably flashed wrong ROM and your LG can't be repaired with the tools that are available here.
Send from my Xperia Neo V using xda-developers app.

No go. Still get the OMAP, off and on in a continuous loop. The thing is, i didn't install a new ROM yet, i was planning on it but never got there.
Fun (sarcasm).
James

Pls help - same situation
Pls help! I'm in same situation. Did anyone manage to find a solution?
I am desperate because I need my phone all the time.
I have the same symptoms, and the OMAP device in device manager does the same thing. On/Off/On/Off...and so on..
If I simply plug my phone in, It just goes on/off/on/off ....... it only vibrates shortly when it starts and I can see the LG logo, then it turns off.

Did you enter "S/W update" mode ??(by insert battery while holding vol+)??

There are tools available that fix this problem

Wkpark fastboot tools make the phone almost unbrickable unless it's damaged the hardware
And it's very hard to damage the hardware

First things first. If you have tried all these, start afresh.

Not sure I am right, but I think you should use Sony's update manager (or whatever the name is) to flash the watch, or an other software, but mind if I ask, how did you get into this situation, what was the last thing you did when the watch was working?

Re: Flash F5 Message
I tried to update my smartwatch but it did not updating my watch, for thanks god my watch is working well..

After much cursing and gnashing of teeth, I got the Sony Update Service software to recognize the watch. I noticed that when I powered up my (bricked) SW2, the SONY logo would flash for a split second on the screen before the dreaded "Flash FS" message. So after powering down the watch, I plugged it in to my PC and hit the power button several times quickly. This triggered the windows device manager to successfully recognize the device as a Sony Smartwatch and the update software room it from there. About 10-15 minutes later... my SW2 was working again.

How did you do this? In my case sometimes it recognises it as "SmartWatch 2" using your solution, the Windows (8) installs it's driver and than it sais no device drivers installed in the device manager and neither the PC Companion notices it.
Could you help me somehow please?

To flash it power it on then quickly insert the USB. Should come up with something like a progress bar box. Utility should detect it maybe??

Any luck?
I've got it working by inserting USB just when SONY logo appears. It started normally the watch as if it never happened any FLASH FS screen. But after around 20 seconds of happiness, it froze again but this time I just cannot get it started again. Any other advice?
Thanks

Flash fs problem
please help Flash FS i tried so many time but its still showing Flash Fs

This can be solution for Flash FS message when SUS is dead
and to get into DFU mode:
2. Turn the watch off.
3. Insert the cable into the watch and than into the USB-port of your computer (it is faster to insert the cable into the computer USB-port than into the watch).
4. Press and hold the watch power key for half a second immediately after you insert the cable into the USB-port (if the charging [in our case displays: Flash FS] begins return to the 2 step).

[Q] Pioneer R1 Tablet not rooted and wont load past the animated logo

Hello,
My Pioneer R1 tablet the other night decided to do an automatic upgrade when booting up and hung for hours on 14 of 18 files updated. I rebooted the tablet for it to get to the home screen but come up with the error android phone services not initinalized and then froze. so rebooted and it got to the animated pioneer logo and just sits there never loading fully. Pioneer customer support sucks with helping and the tablet has a reset button on the back in a pin hole. I pressed that the tablet turns off. The tablet still stuck on animated logo.The tablet was running stock jellybean 4.2. The Pioneer people didnt want to do any troubleshooting. told me to send it to them to fix and that if they found anything wrong other than hardware issue i am liable for the charges on to of the shipping cost. I dont have money to just hand out to people who dont have a system setup for troubleshooting. Sorry for a long story but my question is is there anyone who can help me fix this issue.

Unfortunately I'm stuck with the same issue, tablet was running slow so I rebooted it, got hit with their "system breaking update"
Spent a better part of the day trying to find a way to reboot it into recovery mode and wipe user data/reinstall but so far no luck.
Fired off a email to support, tried calling but the wait time was 54mins last time I called.
Also there is a automated announcement while waiting for call time informing everyone that they "are aware of a problem with the tablet"
If I manage to get it into recovery and fix this I will let you know how

so after further testing :
holding reset for 30 seconds: fail
holding power for 10 seconds: fail
holding power for 1 min: fail
holding reset and then power:fail
power then reset:fail
opening case to disconnect battery; FAIL soldered to the board/battery wtf ?
pinhole on bottom of case between usb and power port doesnt sync up with a reboot option

ok well this was an counterproductive day
called Cs @ 1-800-421-1404
waited 45mins on a "20min" wait
talked to someone who informed me this was the wrong number to call for help with the tablet
called Cs @ 1-888-999-0987
"we are experiencing a high call volume at this time, leave your name # and model number and we will return your call before the end of the business day"
waited until 3pm and called again finally got to talk to someone and it was horrible
I was initially told to press the reset button on the back, when I informed them that was not the issue. I was told to email [email protected] and detail my problem, after around 10mins of this, I was put on hold where 3 different ppl picked up and re-asked my problem. Finally when I asked to speak with a supervisor I was told he wasn't there.
When I explained that this is not uncommon in tablet from time to time, ppl forget what they used as a lock code, or one of their children played with it and put a passcode on the device. I was informed that they cant give me any further information because pioneer hired them to field tech support questions and they aren't part of pioneer. The whole reason they cant just tell me how to boot the device into recovery is they dont know, you see pioneer failed to give them that crucial piece of information.
supervisor is supposed to be calling me back tomorrow so lets see what kind of bs this is.
more then likely I will be de-soldering the battery leads from the board to force it into recovery tomorrow afternoon/

only thing I've found out so far thru trial and error is :
power on ,hold power till first logo, press reset and hold. 3-5 seconds later screen flashes white once (either turning on or off)
tablet off, insert usb connected to pc, rapidly tap power and it will stay on the charging screen , pc then recognizes device as libusb-win32 device "Worldcup device"
still no recovery mode

ESI is actually responsible for the tablet as pioneer leased out their logo for the tablet.
This is why there is a ridiculous run around trying to get help from pioneer's cs reps,ESI got my problem sorted.
look for a stock rom dump soon.

so what files would be needed exactly....
so far I have :
aml_logo.img
boot.img
bootloader.img
cache.ext4.tar
data.ext4.tar
logo.img
recovery.img
and still have to copy over system.ext4.tar

packaged rom file!
ok so after following this thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195858
I ended up with this Pioneer r1 stock rom , anyone who has a stuck pioneer want to try ?

I've been doing some searching myself, since I've got a soft-bricked R1 (Father-in-Law didn't want it any more), and from the looks of it, reflashing AML8726-based tablets is done via a rescue-SD card, or using a manufacturer produced USB burning tool:
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/41478-how-to-unbrick-your-amlogic-aml8726-mx-series-tablet-v20/
So it appears that the tools are out there, but I haven't had any luck finding the device-specific files that will help.
I don't suppose you manged to find a way to contact ESI's technicians without going through the support number?

There is a recovery mode i unbricked mine just a few day ago need help finishing it it's very unstable
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Free mobile app

Could sort of get mine to boot...
My r1 crashed while watching a video and when I tried to restart it was stuck on this pioneer loading screen. I noticed if i let the battery run all the way out I could then get it to load up... but was greeted with dozens of error messages. This program has stopped this program has stopped. Every two seconds another error so trying to get on to google play for a scandisk app was pointless. I chose to restart and... back to Pioneer loading screen :/

Anyone ever locate a stock recovery flash for this tablet? TBT-7R1-P can be flashed via adb and ImageBurnTool. I have 2 tablets that 1, I do have CWM installed but need to connect a mouse to navigate (using a usb mouse plugged inthru an OTC cable) and nothing to restore since I'd wiped it.

If it won't charge, has no LED when connected to charger or PC, won't connect to PC, does not show anything in device manager on PC and won't boot to any of its modes then it's hard bricked. Only option is 1 of these 3 options:
1) send the device to a JTAG service provider
2) replace the motherboard in your device
3) get a new device
