LG P920 brick after factory reset

Hey guys, I have done a factory reset on my lg p920 after which the phone
only boots into the recovery. So this means I have no way to enter my phone again.
I have tried to reflash the kdz but I can't get my phone back into emergency mode.
So the only options I have now with my phone are holding the 3d , down volume and power button and choose between
- flashboot
- recovery
- normal
So is there a way to recover this brick and get back to ics ?
Thanks in advance guys

if you can get into fast boot you can flash one of xbsall's ics images for o3d this should then let you flash his ics rom using the all in one tool in the development section. this should fix it and then you can install whatever you want after

Did you try flash stock ROM?

Did you try to get into fastboot and restore from there ? Theres a thread with the images of stock 4.3and how to do it...
Same thing happened to me, got into fastboot (Vol Down + Power) and restore stock using ADB, and everything is fine now
EDIT 1: Theres this tool, but ive heard that sometimes restore does not work, but maybe thats already fixed ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2635706)
EDIT 2: And here it is how to restore stock Moto G (the link for thestock images fof specific carriers/country are there too), just remember that the fastboot commands can change from one carrier to another (Mine didnt had system spacechunk1/2/3, just 1 system file --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
Hope this works, and if this is not your problem than at least i give it a bump lol

Stock ROM cannot be flashed with recovery, u need flashtool and more important ur device should boot into download mode. So try ur hands on custom ROM.

I tried to go into download mode but the phone just stays at the bootloader, so far I can only get into recovery mode.
What do I need to have to resolve the issue from recovery mode?
I have a friend with the exact model that I can get the files i need to fix mine.

Can I install custom ROM from stock recovery mode?

First of all you shouldnt have made a factory reset.
Did you have a rootedsystem.img or system.img in the root of your internal sd card?
If you did all you had to do is dd flash that image and your phone would have returned to life. If you read the instructions to rooting you shouldve made a backup first!
If you flash ZV5 TOT you will hard brick your phone.

Well I thought u had custom recovery, never mind, u just need to enter in bootloader and flash the stock ROM. This might save u from soft brick.

I thought the factory reset would have fixed the problem. I bought the phone already rooted, so no I dont have neither of the .img files. I have a friend with a similar phone, can i get the files i need from that phone?

I am seeing the part where you said not to flash with zv5, so what are my options at this point? can I use a rootedsystemLS996_ZV6 file i had downloaded? Or Should i check on my friends phone to see if he has the rootedsystem.img or the system.img?

Thats not the answer
Thats bootloader looking your boot.
You must reflash the kdz ot tot file.
The other solution is reflash only system with dd command from download mode
If you cant do it, send me a pm

Its LS996 we only have ZV5 tot and if you already upgraded from ZV5 to any other version you brick the device. And the only way to flash with dd command is having the system image in your internal sdcard. So what are you talking about ?

When you have any rom working, you can flash any modem, with a dump of anyone or extracting it from the kdz.
You can pull files to phone from download mode too

You mean you can push files to the phone in download mode? In that case wouldnt it be better to just push the system image and flash it thru download?

Yes sr, there is a root guide with a pullfile or something like that, similar to send command. You can send files to any location of the phone.
I dont know if it have any limitation in size, but work as adb pull.

There is a push_file.exe used for other LG phones to upload files in the download mode.
However, there is a size limitation and system image files can not be uploaded. I've already tried. As for uploading build.prop files, the system directory is locked and the permission can not be modified.

You can do it remounting as rw.
Check the root scrypt and check how.
But if your problem is build.prop, you can restore a stock one

No, mount remount does not work. It is truly locked down. I have tried many different ways and nothing worked.
If you can make it work, you'll be a hero for many people who have messed up build.prop file.

To root, you are not writing in the system folder but actually replacing the system folder by overwriting the whole memory block using dd command.
But to use dd command, the modified image has to be already in the internal storage. External SD card is also can not be mounted and not accessible.

If you are so sure, why don't you delete your build.prop file and see if you can write it in.

I am not and will not be accountable if this guide does not fix your phone. I also will not and should not be held accountable if this guide is to further damage anything of your phone.
PROCEED WITH CAUTION; Please Pre-Read this guide and understand it before proceeding
.Okay so I will guide you through on how to fix the security error problem most people have on their LG devices
download the LG Mobile Support Tool
After downloading that place it on your desktop and run it as administrator
After you run B2CAppSetup.exe it should automatically open the Mobile Support Tool, if not there should be a new .exe created on the desktop called LGMobile Support Tool just double click and open that.
Let the program update and install any necessary files that it requires. (It should automatically start to update and install, it should just prompt you with a UAC window)
Once you see the program open, click on the Install USB Driver button on the top left-hand side
Then a new window will come up asking for you for the phones carrier and the phones model number.
Once you are successfully done installing the drivers, we can proceed to the restoration process of the phone
Okay now we need to put the phone in S/W Upgrade Mode.
A. make sure phone is off
B. While holding down the VOLUME UP BUTTON insert the microUsb in the phone while also having the USB side connected to the computer already. (To enter S/W)
Once the phone is in S/W Upgrade Mode the computer will start to install the drivers and the LG Mobile Support Tool will automatically detect it and start the restore process
A.Keep in mind that this process takes its time and should more than likely complete successfully giving you a working phone
If all goes well you should have a fully functioning factory restored LG phone. Congratulations!!!!

You must install stock rom first and at the developer options change Oem unlock to true and USB flash debugging
There's another way too and in both ways you lose root.
Hope it helped

Well it's just for j700 h/m/f
So in theory it isn't
But the problem you have is about having a modified rom without the oem unlocked

The thing is, I had my phone with usb debugging and oem unlock enabled when I tried to install the rom. Would this mean my phone won't be able to install it. If this is the case, are there any roms specifically for my phone that I can install?

No, Odin flashes .tar files, not .img.
What .img are you trying to flash? If you want to flash an .img on Samsung, you need to use TWRP(it can flash .img files) or you can try using a Terminal Emulator or adb shell to dd the .img using dd commands.
