My friend just gave me this phone to fix for him and i noticed that the phone is in safe mode and some applications are not working. I have tried to factory reset but in vain. I have also tried to hard reset but am not sure if i did it right but still keeps restarting in safe mode. I have searched for this safe mode thing on the internet but in vain. Has somebody come across or knows how to go about this?
Please note that this is my first post in XDA forums as am a newbie who is determined to go far. Cheers!

Heres what happened... A good friend of mine did a factory reset soon after I rooted her phone because sms stoped working. now it wont boot to anything other then Download mode and only after many trys to even get it to do that. I have flashed and mods lots of phones before but I cant get anything to work with this phone. the one program I found and thought might work has a dead link and no where on the net can I found it. if anyone has any ideas please help or even the ROMTools v2.3.1 (ex-recoveryflasher) I could try all that I have collected.. Thanks
Thanks

Its not serious just follow this guide and you should be good.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090687 In hindsight, you should tell everyone when you root their phone "Don't factory reset!"
EDIT: Sorry guys, just saw the master thread. Will repost this there. x
Hi guys,
Apologies if there's a thread about this already.
I just upgraded my firmware through the settings menu on my Galaxy S2 - everything seemed to go OK, phone rebooted, now it's stuck on the SAMSUNG GALAXY SII GT-I9100 logo on a black screen indefinitely.
Tried so far:
Removing battery for a period of time, then rebooting
Booting into recovery mode and emptying the cache (have not tried factory reset yet)
Allowed to boot for 30 minutes to see if anything would happen, nothing
Can you guys offer any advice before I consider more extreme measures? I've kind of accepted I'm going to have to format the stupid thing now. Should I do a factory reset before trying to flash the firmware using Odin? I'm about to try this:

To try to fix what I assume is a soft brick issue. Does this seem like a good idea?
Sorry if I sound like a complete n00b. I don't normally get this involved with my phone, but it's kind of forced my hand this time around
Many thanks x
no worring yet
do factory data reset
if that fails flash a stock rom using odin. search intratech thread in orignal development
I'm new to XDA and the only reason i made this account is because i soft bricked my device after rooting (cant remember exactly what was the cause)
I have a LG optimus F6 from brightspot but it uses Tmobile's network so i would assume its pretty much the same thing. i've looked for several methods to unbrick/ reset my phone but all of the methods didn't work for me (that ive searched for so far).
my device CAN geet into download mode and turn on but it stays on the LG boot logo, even when i try a hard reset (Vol+ and Power) same result.
im not sure if there is a way to just completely force reset my phone or if its completly dead. From what i found so far, my soft bricked device is more difficult that a hard bricked one >.< help?!?
This is a friends device. They were using the phone and all of a sudden it crashes on them. Now it will show the LG logo and go to a white screen and freeze or go to a blue screen and freeze. I have wiped the cache and memory numerous times
Is it safe to assume the phone is just dead? I can't find any ROMS or way to flash the stock OS image to the phone.
Any help would be appreciated

There isn't much about LG Transpyre, on XDA.
This is a Verizon phone?
Try Power the Device Up in Safe Mode - LG Transpyre™
or Perform a Factory Data Reset (Device Powered Off) - LG Transpyre™
There maybe something in [Q] LG Transpyre Root [4.4.2] by Verdictator
Because there is not a specific forum for your device, I will request that this thread will be moved to Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
My LG Volt had been freezing frequently and I would have to restart the phone .The last time it froze it would only turn on to the LG logo. I can get in to recovery and did a factory reset , a couple of times, but that did not help. I have looked at a number of forums at various sites trying to find a way to root this and hopefully restore the phone. One problem is that the computer does not recognize it. Any help would be greatly appreciated ! This LG Volt is running android 4.2 . It came with it . I was sent a replacement phone last Feb. but I know it was still android 4. . :crying:
