What exactly did you do to send it to a bootloop? That's why I put in the bootloader post at the bottom a way to restore the laf partition. If you made a nandroid backup you should be able to restore it by booting to recovery and restoring it there.

 

[trodgers03]

i have a copy of the liz file on my pc but have no idea how to do it

 

[trodgers03]

it wont boot into recovery its stuck at the lg screen or i can get in to fastboot

 

[MikeHoncho]

on the LG screen see if you can get adb access by typing

adb devices

 

[trodgers03]

no access to adb

 

[sammyz]

no access to adb

boot into fastboot
run fastboot devices

 

[trodgers03]

i get "5a1cd2a fastboot" returned on the screen

Good. Do you have the laf backup?

 

[trodgers03]

yes i did fastboot flash laf laf.img from back up directory. it looks like some how the boot.img is gone

what happens when u go into download mode with key combo?

 

[trodgers03]

there is no download mode it goes to fastboot when i put the usb and hold the vol up key
i didnt know there is a download mode

 

[sammyz]

there is no download mode it goes to fastboot when i put the usb and hold the vol up key
i didnt know there is a download mode

oh, derp. this happened to biggiephil as well


After using the download mode key combo do this:

fastboot erase laf
fastboot flash laf laf.img
fastboot continue

let me know what happens.

 

[trodgers03]

says error invalid boot image header. not sure what that means im new to this

 

[sammyz]

says error invalid boot image header. not sure what that means im new to this

Can you paste entire log from the commandline?

 

[trodgers03]

dont know how to do that but it reads "ok" after each command until i type fastboot continue the the phone reads error:invalid boot image header

 

[sammyz]

dont know how to do that but it reads "ok" after each command until i type fastboot continue the the phone reads error:invalid boot image header

so when u boot normally it goes to fastboot mode and when you try to get into download mode, it goes into fastboot mode as well?

 

[trodgers03]

when i boot normal it stays on the LG boot screen the only time it goes to fast boot is when i plug in the usb cable and hold the volume up. i made a back up of every thing the first time i got into recovery on a sd card. but it wont go in to recovery or i would just do a restore.

 

[sammyz]

I think your image might be corrupt. I actually couldnt even find a backup of the laf on my computer.
This is bigphillie's copy:
laf
Try flashing that one in fastboot.

You will have to reboot into fastboot; everytime you error out with fastboot continue, you must reboot.

thanks for all ur hard work i ended up just buying a new lg l70 ms323 for 50 $ at metro pcs great price if since i bricked my last one. im still gonna try to fix it. if you have any ideas let me know i tryed reflashing the laf.img that you up loaded with no luck. had a metro pcs guy do a factory reset and that didnt work either.
