Hi there guys.
Recently i bought a LG Optimus Chat C550 and tried to root it using this method which worked great!
After that i installed a few apps including Rom Manager and tried to install ClockWorkMod Recovery though Rom Manager. It ask me which model my phone was but since it didn't had my model there i chose 1 that said "And others", the phone rebooted after awhile and now its stuck on LG screen.
I've been trying everything but with no luck, my PC doesn't recognize the phone nor ADB.
I'm not a expert just usually follow guides/tutorials. I can't find anything about how to fix it here on the forum or on google :/
Does anyone know how i can get it fixed?!
Thanks in advance

Please help. I have a Korean Optimus One, model number LG-SU370. I tried to install custom recovery. I followed all the instructions here without any errors (except for step 5). When I rebooted into recovery mode I am stuck at the LG screen. It was only after pulling the battery out I saw it was not a P500 (it said optimus one at the boot screen). I have tried to do the factory reset but it doesn't work (tried every 2 and 3 button combo). Please help! What can I do?

Donot worry your phone is not bricked
and lg optimus one = lg p500 as far as i know.
try reflashing recovery
if you can boot into your phone then download rom manager install it, open it then click on something like "flash clockwork"(your phone must be rooted)
if you cannot boot or phone not rooted follow
you can use lgmdp to flash recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18742447#post18742447
as I can see u r stuck at lg mono....so this means u can boot into recovery...if it is so then...
download your optimus one official firmware (google it) or the ROM u want to flash (make sure you choose the ROM compatible with your baseband) n place the zip in sd card....boot into recovery wipe data and cache and then install zip from sd card...
more info on flashing ROM can be found on sticky thread in general section...
n optimus one n p500 are one and the same.....
press THANKS if I helped..
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Thanks for the help, but I have got it sorted. I was unable to boot into recovery mode or use the USB + emergency mode. I took back to the store I got it from and the guy there was also unable to do anything with it.... so he just gave me a brand new handset. I love Korean after service
I don't think the Korean and international Optimus Ones are the same. The Korean one has a few features that I don't think are on international models (e.g. Digital TV/Radio decoder and dedicated hardware for phone/online banking). The Korean version also seems to have two proximity sensor 'holes' just to the left of the front speaker. See this pic:
usemycanon.com//Korean%20Optimus%20One%20%28Su370%29.JPG
To any users of the Korean Optimus One out there: rooting with gingerbraek works fine.. but I wouldn't mess about flashing ROMs/Kernels unless you are confident!!
Thanks again for your help.
u can use the thanks Burton indeed.... ;-)

If you have a custom recovery installed than you can just flash the stock rom LG has provided for the public.
This happened to me not to long ago. The LG support tool is the software you'll be looking for. Download, install, connect device while holding up and use the tool to do the rest.
Hello. I recently put a custom ROM on my D605 that didn't work very well so I returned to the stock. Unfortunately, after an update, the phone bricked and can't get past the CWM menu. I'm stuck in recovery. I tried wiping all the cache and data and installing another ROM but that didn't fix it. Any ideas what might help?
Check kdz files (stock android 4.4) in this site - lg-firmwares.com/lg-d605-firmwares
I needed D60520b_00.kdz, but i downloaded HUN(Europe/HU/Hungary) version D60520h_00.kdz and it seemed to work for my phone. Now it is alive after 5 mouths!
Try to kdz-flash this phone, my old one l7II was in the same condition after battery popped out while updating in recovery
(i was searching for something under my desk and i accidentaly pulled power cord connected to phone, so it fell off my desk). After flash phone was not turning on at all, but i connected charger and charged it to 100%, then everything was fine.
I have also bricked device and i cant find anywhere kdz file to download.phone restart in Emergency mode and recovery.
Please don't lie that there is no ROM in kdz file for your smartphone... Here You have the best website (in my opinion) to search for LG firmware:
http://lg-phone-firmware.com/firmware-Lg+Optimus+L9+II-Tutti-37.html

Put your phone in Emergency Mode, then try to recovery with LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOLS.
It´s less complicated, only need to installa the drivers and have a internet conexion.
Hi
Yesterday I rooted my phone using mobilego it's an UK Alcatel Pixi 4 6" 4G, everything went fine and finished rooting, I loaded SuperSU and it asked to update binaries. I clicked normal and it asked me about my king root and asked to uninstall it so I clicked yes. everything went through fine and asked to reboot. on reboot my phone just loads to the Alcatel logo and stays there so I'm assuming something went wrong somewhere and I now have a soft brick. I'm guessing I need a stock rom for my phone to get my phone working again.
I've gone through all the Alcatel websites that pop up on Google and all I have found is a stock rom for the 3g version of my phone.
does anyone know how to get my stock rom? or how to unsoft brick my phone please

hi Daniele00 try download this package this is mobile updater for alcatel devices. download tool wait for end installation and connect your phone off with the pc .if mobile upgrade recognized phone will be flashed new firmware.you have guide inside tool.remember process is long so drink few beer and relax.i hope this will help you. i cant post links but go to alcatel official site and search tool mobile upgrade..alcatel-mobile.com
Thank you for the reply, I have been to the Alcatel website and in the software upgrade section my phone is not listed unfortunately the area no support for any Pixi 4 variant on the website, it's so frustrating. just an idea I had though, my partner has exactly the same phone as me, if he was to factory reset is there any way I can get it from his phone and some how install on mine?

Your partner has the exact same phone you say? Then I think it's possible to make a backup of that device and then flash it to yours.

It's the system partition that got corrupted, you can probably just use fastboot to flash the system.img of the other device that you have.
question, my phone being soft bricked and won't go past the logo screen, if I sent to repair centre will they somehow know the phone was rooted or can't they cause the phone won't boot.?

If you don't tell them the phone was rooted then I don't think they would know. They should be able to get the phone working again.
Wouldn't it be easier to just make a backup of a working phone and then flash that?
