LG P500 complete dead , no fastboot, no LG logo - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys, pls help me.
This is not the first time i tried to update firmware using KDZUpdater [KDZ_FW_UPD.exe] .
But this is the first time my device has been bricked.
During updating my firmware, i was in "Emergency Mode" and i received some error on KDZUpdater GUI Console.
As i was unable to move from "Emergeny Mode", i tried again to update firmware, but again i got some error.
I thought removing the battery will do some good, but i was wrong.
Now my mobile is as good as "BLACK BRICK".
It even doesn't detect in "Device Manager".
Note:
Before using "KDZUpdater", i had disabled "LG modems" from device manager.
Pls help me on this.

Can anyone please help me on this.

First one in!
Have you got a recovery? You could try holding down VolDown + Home + Power at the same time to boot to recovery. I think you have already tried that however. Try using a linux computer, plug it in and type into the terminal "lsusb". This can help because linux doesn't need drivers when win does. If you can find an entry saying something with "LG" "P500" "Android" she lives! Then you can try One Click Unbrick. I'm not an expert on unbricking, though, so don't quote me on these steps.
EDIT: found this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197111

I fear thatvm not seeing any p500 entry on Linux terminal with command "lsusb"

Help Required [Extract Error While Flashing through KDZ]

I was flashing the latest recovery mod but it failed and i accidentally rebooted the phone. Now it is bricked. Stuck at fastmode enabled. udc_start().
I am trying the flash the original firmware via tha KDZ but after launching the update KDZ throws me an error...Extract File Error
[R&D Test Tools Log File]
19:24:37 : Launching SW update
19:24:37 : Unpacking KDZ
19:24:40 : KDZ file extraced
19:24:40 : Extract file error
19:24:42 : ===FINISHED===
I tried with two Stock Roms...
Please help me in this....
Basically on a windows machine you download kdz updater and uncompress it as it is a zip file.
Download from here.
This is what I did on an xp laptop.
I had to down load the drivers from the official lg site. when here you enter the code that is on the box the phone came in or under the battery.
Chose the your county and laguage from the drop down box at the top right of the dialogue box. Then from the middle you can choose the drivers. For some reason I had to find the files and click on them to install the driver.
Ok once you decompress kdz updater there are three seperate files to work with. 1. windows enabler. 2. msxml.msi 3.KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
You will also need to download the right file to restore with,You can find it with google.
Please check here the The_ERROR thread wich explains it very well:
[ROMS] Original LG Firmware list.
Install msxml now.
Now you have to boot the phone into rescue mode. On Lg Optimus One turn phone off even if it means taking out the battery.
Press power - volume up - back (this button is next to the home button).
Connect to usb now.Computer found new hardware and installed four drivers.
Then open device manager. Left click my computer - properties - device manager. You need to disable the lg modem driver. Left click on it and disable.
Now launch kdz updater. There will be a drop box on left set to 3gspt or similiar. on the right drop box set to diag. The long box just above the info box with a file at the side lets you browse to find restore file. e.g. V10a.00.kdz.
Double click the button below and let it do it's thing. Took 15min. My phone shut down and came up with an error at the last minute. Anyway I rebooted and all was good.
Everything was the way I left it. Just had to re-root.
My only real problem was getting the kdz installer to see the phone.
After installing the drivers restart pc. If it finishes quickly and just before saying finished it says phone not found try removing all phone related drivers including nokia pc suite and the lg suite and remove and reinstall the drivers.
LITTLE ADVICE :You should use some search and keep your eyes open
Two threads related to this are there on the first page itself.
i need help stuck on emergency mode and computer wont recognize phone it did a at the beginning but when connecting I got partition error table on LGMDP, also got an error on KDZ saying someting with error code 1002 ... please help don't wanna take out the battery cause i'm afraid i would have officially bricked it as in it wouldn't start back up! please willing to try anything at the moment!
Just follow the steps which I mentioned above and everything will be alright.

No, i suggest you do not use kdz updater, it had high chances of bricking your phone.

It once bricked my phone too when I removed battery in emergency mode. But after that I used it many times and it worked flawlessly.
You can definitely use kdz, when you know what are you doing.

this is an extract from the resurrection guide. See if this helps.
If you plug your Phone on PC without battery, OMAP4430 device appeared for seconds and then disappeared in your Windows Device Manager
(check arsen4oo photo guide in post #3)
On windows 7 sometimes OMAP4430 flashes too fast so you cant install driver.
There is a a windows feature that will help you install the driver easier.
To view devices that were once installed but are no longer attached to the computer, open a Command Prompt window using the Run As Administrator option and enter the command:
SET DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1
Then, from the same command prompt, type devmgmt.msc to open Device Manager. Choose View, Show Hidden Devices. The new instance of Device Manager will show “ghosted” entries for devices that were once present. This technique is especially useful for fixing problems caused by leftover drivers after replacing a network card or video card—you can easily delete the ghosted device or update the OMAP4430 driver.
You are lucky. Mine doesnt even show the OMAP4430 in device manager.

Mine shows up once I have unplugged and plugged it in a million times using the resurrection guide and it never catches it I asked for help in the guide thread and nobody replied so I am sending it to LG maybe I hope they take it and when I get a new logic board I will try again lol but this time I will do the flash tool and flash both files at once not one at a time like somebody said you should I wish someone could team viewer me and see if I got everything correct but no help for me
Sent from my LG-SU760 using xda app-developers app
Mine did this after I installed the ICS update. OMAP4430 flickering in Device Manager. Watch your phone while holding power+vol_up and after about 3 seconds you will see recycling arrows and a bunch of Korean characters. Let go of the buttons as soon as you see it. Then my LG USB serial port showed up and I was able to flash. It seems that getting into download mode changes with each major sw upgrade...
Just one question...
Why are you guys trying omapboot download mode if you just want to flash ICS?
If you want to flash ICS you dont need omapboot just put phone in normal download mode...and for normal download mode you dont need the omap driver :/
Don't do unecessesary steps you are just making your life harder...omapboot download mode is only for bricked phones that dont turn on at all and have no normal download mode...
Mine would boot but couldn't flash correct baseband until I used the guide and the drivers as it wouldn't go into download mode so to me it was necessary IMO may not of been but I didn't know another way and it worked
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda app-developers app
Yeah wayno i am not saying you didnt have a problem but i will tell you from my experience so far that people asked me for teamviewer sessions because they "tried everything" and didn't work but at the first 10 sessions i said ok some where missing drivers others didn't know the key combination etc etc..
When i reached the 20 teamviewer sessions it was still the same thing..old drivers, not following procedure etc etc..
At 30 teamviewer sessions the same...
40, 50 until i decided not to have any other teamviewer session because everybody said they tried everything but didnt work but "magically" with teamviewer everything worked (apart from 1 p920 that really had a hardware problem, i fixed that too with a different method).
The bad thing is that people posted in every thread in order to find a solution and actually the solution was to follow the guide (not the omapboot unbrick guide :/, the lg flashtool guide) and that made it difficult for the rest of the users, i had lg flashtool questions in rom thread, in bricks thread, in basebands thread but the right thread to ask actually was the LG Flashtool thread and if they asked there it would be easier for them to get an answer and also for the rest of the users to read..
I know this ICS is a great thing and everybody wants to try it from novice to experienced users but if we don't get organised it just gets out of hand :/ and saying the same thing in every thread is just annoying.
I know the lg flashtool guide is old but i cant make a guide for everything and reading a few pages especially in the end i have also posted there some info.
I totally understand your frustration and it did make it hard my problem was I overlooked a few things but when I got pointed in the right direction a few times lol I eventually found my way. And yes the clutter did make it hard for those who were following the rules and needed help couldn't get it cause there was just too much for the few people who understand it all. But now I got it and am trying to talk my wife into letting me do her phone lol after I failed. BTW awesome job bringing this old thing back to the forums pure genius.

Com ports and not finding phone

I feel like I posted in the wrong section, but upon plugging my LG phone into the computer and the little noise going on to know it's connected, I'm trying to unbrick it so I'm on the download mode on the phone and I go into the software I'm using to unbrick it and it won't show up when I want to select a COM, how come?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
do not understand you well .
Well like,theres a program for LG phones, it resets the phone to factory settings but the program won't recognize the phone...I see it in device manager but not anything else
The phone is stuck in download mode or something
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
I don't know for sure, but if you have bricked it by trying to root or mod, I don't think the program from LG will help you. I'd search the forums and see if someone else has done the same thing and maybe posted steps to fix it.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
It sounds like you may not have the phone in the right mode, or perhaps you don't have the right driver for the usb serial device?
It's tough to provide more specific help without knowing more about what model phone you have, which software you are using, what steps you took to get the phone into "download" mode, etc.
are you getting an error something like "fail to connect to the mobile handset, please check COM port and connect in idle screen. Due to the multifunction, despite the idle screen it can be failed to connect" please check the drivers on your pc which operating system are you using is the pc detecting other devices in the same port.

[Q] Stuck in download mode, FlashTool fails with missing model information (BRICKED?)

My LG G2 D800 (AT&T) 32 GB is stuck in download mode and I cannot flash the stock ROM to it.
I can't get out of download mode no matter how I try to press keys at boot, etc. -- just a black screen with the LG logo.
adb devices returns no devices found.
Shows in Windows Device Manager as "LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM4)."
Flash Tool finds my device, but when I try to flash (using dll C:\Users\SAdra\Downloads\LGD800_20130904_LGFLASHv160.dll and S/W LGD800AT-01-V10O-310-410-OCT-19-2013+0.tot), it fails immediately and says "Model Information Check Fail!"
It shows "IMEI : " and "Model : ". That's really scary if that information has truly disappeared (not sure how that could have happened though). I at least have the IMEI on a sticker on the back.
I used ioroot to successfully enter root mode, so I should have an EFS backup, but I don't know how to recover it since I'm in download mode and the only tool I have to work with is the LG FlashTool, which isn't happy with me right now. I've tried key combinations but I can't seem to enter recovery mode or fastboot or anything from here.
Previously I was stuck in a fastboot loop but then I re-flashed most of the stock partitions from (downloads.codefi.re 10d_partitions directory under D800 Stock_Firmware) -- I remember doing this for aboot, boot, dbi, laf, modem, recovery, and abl1 -- I was following some dumb forum post in which someone recommended doing that -- duhh...
I would be happy at this point if I could get back into my fastboot loop -- at least I could flash stuff from there.
What got me into the fastboot loop in the first place was flashing the BeanStalk ROM (it was a two-part thing where you were supposed to first flash the main ROM and then flash a device-specific patch -- well, the initial ROM flash got me into the fastboot loop).
Any recommendations? If I were to use Linux, would I have any other options -- I've seen people mention flashing partitions using dd?
At this point I'm about ready to take it in to AT&T (still under warranty / in contract) and beg for help, although I know I've obviously voided my warranty by rooting it.
I've seen a few older threads where people are stuck in download mode and have the same "model information" error in FlashTool, and it seems nobody ever replies to those threads, so I think I'm out of luck. If anybody has gone through this or has any idea what I can do, I would really appreciate the help.
Thanks,
I have the same problem with my G2. I am stuck at the LG logo. No recovery and download mode stuck at the dots. Phone is recognized (while its showing the LG logo) on the control panel as LGE AndroidNet USB Serial port (41) and LGE AndroidNet USB modem. I have tried all tutorials (hard resets, linux etc) I found but nothing worked. Anyone with suggestions???

I'm in the same situation. Flashed the wrong rom and now stuck at lg logo. Lg flash tool keeps erroring out with mismatch model numbers. The universal file also errors out. Anyone have a way to save it? I even hex edited the files and ended up with mismatched bin number. I feel I'm so close. Lg flash tool just keeps getting confused. Is it a full brick and a lost cause?

Thanks for the suggestion but it still didn't work. Here are pics for what's happening.
1.) It's an at&t g2.
2.) Here's the wrong ROM that was flashed. (Cloudy)
3.) This is the error I Gerry from lgflashtool. (Wrong model)
4.) If I use the alternate DLL in op post then this is the error. (Crossdll)
I just can't get it to unbrick. Any other suggestions I'm site would help a ton of other people. Thanks in advance!

If u still cant flash 20c firmware try 20d not 20o as it 20d is what my g2 came with first.

[Completed] [Q] Lg Volt SoftBrick

My Lg Volt is a rooted device, i screwed up a flash and now its stuck in boot loop. My computer see's it (its in device manager) but i can't install adb to get it into TWRP (which I have installed on it, it is also a rooted device). I keep going into the update device driver thing in windows device manager. and giving the google adb driver system path and windows just say" you already have the best drivers installed already" or something similar to that. ALSO the device is stuck as "MTP USB DEVICE". PLEASE HELP!
Hello, thank you for using XDA Assist.
Unfortunately there is no dedicated forum for that device. Also I haven't found any way to make your device boot to recovery via some key combinations, which is weird since every device basically has that way.
Try asking the same thing HERE in the Android Q&A section.
Good luck!
