What a fancy brick you have!

I'm new to the world of custom roms and such, so being the newbie that I am I made the number one mistake: I factory reset on a custom rom

As of this point I have an Optimus V ( Virgin Mobile ) that boots up to the LG screen, goes to a screen that reads "Clearing Cache" and "Factory Reset". It then appears to restart and show the LG screen again, followed by a blue screen ( of DEATH!! ) which says something about fastboot ( whatever that is ). I've been searching Google for the past 24+ hours with no luck, and I ask for help only out of desperation. If I'm unable to fix this ( which may be the case ) I'm going to just have to purchase a new one. I love my poor little Optimus very much and would appreciate any help you can give

Thanks!

there are soooooooo many warnings and posts from other people whove made this mistake.

how on earth does anyone let this happen.

Not enough research. I honestly only discovered all the things that could go wrong AFTER everything went wrong.

I had same problem, hold on ill link you to my thread it has a link for fastboot. Chose option 2 in fb too.

You should also install a custom recovery if your using clockworkmod. Read the thread will have links for how to do that too

As of this point my phone is listed under the Device Manager ( HD>Android Phone>Android ADB Device. the screen of my phone is all blue with text reading:

Fastboot mode started
gpic_i2c: invalid khz: 0
bl: i2c write error
udc_start()
-- suspend --
-- reset --
-- portchange --
-- reset --
-- portchange --
fastboot: processing commands

Any idea where to go from here?

I'm really not trying to be snarky here, but in your 24+ hours of searching Google, did you try "bricked lg optimus v"? If not, give it a try, I think you'll find what you're looking for!

 

[sethdoesstuff]

I have indeed and nothing wants to work. I can't boot into my phone so I'm stuck staring at a blue fastboot screen with no hope for recovery.

There are two methods for this.
Number 1:ADB method to break factory reset bootloop by wiping /mtd8
Number 2: [How To] Fix "Most" Boot Loop Issues Caused By Factory Reset

Hope that works for you
