To get into recovery, use "adb reboot recovery".....

This will pull you into your recovery image...

If you can attempt it, aquire an ADB SHELL... Use zefie's flash_image and flash Xionia... Restore a NanDroid backup or use advanced > fix recovery bootloop.

That'll fix a boot loop into recovery..

Try to flash a ROM...

Hope it helps.

Patrick,

If the phone cannot boot up or boot into recovery, there is no possible way to communicate with the phone via ADB. this can only happen within Recovery or when booted up.

I bootlooped my Optimus S the other day by messing up a recovery image flash, and i used kp500 to get it unstuck. In fact, the un-brick process didn't even go to completion, but it somehow allowed me to boot up...then i was able to flash a new recovery image and fix the problem

I feel like if you're able to get an update .cab file for the optimus T...you should be able to use it with the kp500 lg update utility and it should work the same as it does for the optimus s. i don't know for sure, though. and i don't know if there's a .cab out there for the T.

He should innocently eat the windows logo like its struggling to get away but he doesn't notice(because its beneath him)
Mabe a little blood:D

Or even sharing a plate of windows cookies with his penguin buddy but that might detract from the hippo idk I tend to take the things to a morbid route
Are you shooting for cute,funny,

I got a idea to make one with a android mobster doing a drive by on a family of apples haveing a picnic killing all but one that runs then gets ran down and pined against a tree ending with a max payne style execution with a gun pressed against his apple with the final bloody gunshot splattering applesauce everywhere:D

I honestly have no idea. I would wait for someone like Drew to shed some light...

I found two threads in the T forum to solve unbricking or you could have started a new thread for further references...

Wait. You flashed an Optimus S recovery to the Optimus T??!?! You might be hosed, unless someone in the Optimus T forums has an idea.

FYI: The Optimus T is a GSM device. Optimus S is CDMA. The two are NOT cross-compatible.
