I assume you are following the CMahedra offline flashing method?
I also had the same thing, as well as the mirrored s/w upgrade screen. But it did allow me to get through the flashing process.
Sorry I cannot help further. I almost sent mine to LG, they even gave me an return authorization number and that night I had it all worked out.

Hi guys
Im here cause i tried almost everything to unlock my damm bootloader and i cant. Followed the P768 tutorial for this with the roms V20b and V20c from europe open, waiting around a half hour to do adb reboot oem-unlock, but everytime the phone just reboots.
I want to know if anyone had this and how you do to solve it. Thanks in advance

Lelus said somewhere that only some carriers allow unlocking bootloader, trust me it s true, I tried unlocking on various firmwares, every time phone just reboots. I was finally able to unlock on v20A indian. But others were successful in unlocking on firmwares on which I was unsuccessful. And some waited for over 11hours and then they were able to unlock. So give a try once more. :thumbup:

I have the p769 with v20f and I have not been able to find a way too unlock my bootloader either. Help would be much appreciated.
I think the problem for some, is that the u-boot is not getting replaced while performing the offline flash. Try extracting the u-boot from the kdz and flash with fastboot to the system.
Run offline flash of 20b kdz and when the phone boots up, turn it back off and flash the u-boot you extracted from 20b, then wait 30 min (I waited longer) and try.

Okay, before you do "adb reboot oem-unlock", move "Android" folder from your sdcard0 to your C: drive. Then open command prompt and type "cd c:/Android" after that type adb reboot oem-unlock.

I copied Android from sdcard to C:/ but theres nothing there, i mean adb etc. Take a look:
I need to move adb files to this folder?
So i finally unlocked my bootloader on my p769. After i unlocked it i went to recovery and restored my backup to a 20F T-mobile P769 rom (yes i know this was stupid, I should have installed recovery via fastboot while I had it open). My touch screen is borked and I have no recovery set up.
Things I've tried:
To turn on USB debugging, the backup i restored does not have a homescreen so I cannot access the settings to turn it on.
The KDZ offline flash method, but it always stops at 15% even though i've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers countless times.
"Upgrade recovery" via the LG software tool. It gets to the part where it downloads the file and even after 2 hours it doesn't download. My hosts file did not have LGs IP when i tried this.
Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is there a button combination to force my phone to go to fastboot mode? Or can i got from s/w upgrade mode to fastboot mode? This is really frustrating.
Alright so i managed to turn USB debugging on, but i have no root or recovery. Is there anything I can do from here?
EDIT: managed to get root and installed busybox the correct busybox. i can't seem to get the recovery to install though (im using the l9 recovery installer APK. It says the recovery is installed but it won't reboot into recovery and the LEDs dont flash when i power on the phone). My phones touchscreen is still borked.
That LG software tool never worked for me and I never used it. Find a kdz uploaded and keep the phone on. No sw mode. I've been reading a lot of stuff on here about u boot and adb. . .never did any of that with other phones but I haven't bricked this one either to test any methods. I'm rambling. . .let need know what happens.

Even if your bootloader is unlocked you still have to install a ROM that is made for your phone. Just go to backup/restore then restore from sd and pick your backup. Good luck!

What method did you use to root your phone, unlock boot loader and flash recovery? Last time I tried a method my phone was soft bricked with "security error".
Sent from my LG-P769 using xda premium
T-Mobile L769 - was rooted with LGPwn.apk
Followed this guide (I thought to a "T") but apparently I screwed up somewheres.
I believe I'm currently what you would call soft bricked. When i attempt to boot the phone i get the LG logo with "Security Error" just below it now.
will this guide help me unbrick my phone or am I now officially up $h!t creek?
if it helps the current KDZ was V20D and it was attempting to update to V20F but the update kept failing because we removed bloatware and then 10 minutes later saw a post informing us that that would stop OTA updates.
so you know.....a little help??

If you already have fastboot for the L9, just turn off the phone, take out the battery, run start in admin mode, choose option 1, plug in the phone when it requests, and wait 4 seconds.....insert the battery and run those commands.

When you connect, make sure to have device manager open and see if the OMAP drivers are installed. If so, you should get the inverted white LG logo. At that point, you need to run the commands.

Okay. Here's another way to install the stock recovery thanks to rarsenaux post in August........
Open LG Mobile Update (Make sure you have internet on)
Input MEID (located behind battery)
Connect phone to computer via USB in S/W upgrade mode (Vol+ then insert USB)
Let LG download and install phone recovery
NOTE: Recovery stopped at 4% install, but just leave it alone, and it will install correctly. It never went past 4%
NOTE: This will return your phone to factory settings like the day you got it, so you will have to re-root if you use this method.
Sent from my LG-P769 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
This worked but I didn't have to enter in the MEID.
I plugged the phone in.
Installed the driver while it went through a couple checks to see if the phone was connected.
While it was doing that i re-installed the drivers (actually did this part 2 or 3 times)
It finally recognized that the phone was connected and told me some type of software was up to date.
I opened up the drop down at the top of the screen and hit "Update Recovery" and let it do it's thing.
I can now turn the phone on without receiving the "Security Error" but my screens all wonky.
I've run LGPwn.apk and then reinstalled L9 Recovery but i can't boot into recovery to flash the tsfix. I have the option to boot to recovery when i open the recovery tool but the phone itself won't boot into recovery.
