Drew (whoever you are) I'm told you're the guy that can help a total screw up. If you're out there I could use a miracle...a step by step miracle:-[

A lot of people here are helpful and knowledgeable! Someone can probably help you. Try to be patient. i know it can be tough when you're in a jam.... But there are many threads in which people have done the same thing as you and have posted about it. I suggest using thus downtime to read up and see if you can accomplish something on your own. There is certainly steps on how to fix this in a couple threads. I wish you luck and I hope this helps!!

Thanks for this! I did the clear through Menu like an idiot while trying to revert back to stock so I could sell the phone... this worked great to unbrick me!

I know and I appreciate everyone else sounding off on what has worked and what hasn't. This is a very helpful community. I just hope I can get my phone up and going again so I can continue to read and try some of things mentioned. I also do not want to go back to blackberry purgatory.

djoel81, I know this may not be of much help but I got that same fatal error when I unbricked mine. I just kept starting the process over. It took several times but finally worked. I also went into the device manager and deleted the LG entry under modems, and rebooted my computer after the error. That seemed to clear it out to start over.

the link is broken. I know this is an old thread but my phone won't go past lg screen and I can't get into recovery either :/ (it's the second link I can't get)

Also, KP500 doesn't show any words, all I see are ???.. I deleted and redid it twice. I am trying to see if I can substitute V9 for VC but because KP isn't working properly i'm not certain if it will or will not work.


UPDATE. I managed to get the Updater tool to download correctly. I am now having another issue. I get to the part where I plug my phone in with the emergency mode and then restart the program. The program loads for a while and then freezes and terminates. I am using V9 because I could not get a later version.

I got a non-working Optimus S. It boots to the Sprint Logo and then hangs. I have properly installed LGNPST and have the .tot file. I begin the reflashing, it says "Sub Progressing Masterbin" It gets to 29% then says:
Process: Upgrade_Masterbin
SubProc: Masterbin Download
Cause: The number of Bad block exceeded the limit! Please replace flash.

Can anyone help?
