Edit: Very few people seem to be getting this to work properly. Until further notice, I am calling this a busted method. I will be working on a better method and hopefully have it out by mid-april.
Ok, this method assumes that you can still get into Download Mode on the phone. If you can't, you're at full brick status.
Steps:
Grab the LG Update Tool from here and install the program :
LG Mobile Support: Find the Latest Drivers & Product Guides | LG USA
Put your phone into "Download Mode":
Pull battery, replace battery, hold down vol up + vol down, then while still holding insert usb cable
Run the LG Update Tool:
Start Bar -> All Programs -> LGMobile Support Tool -> LGMobile update
If the program finds your phone you are in good shape, if not, you will need to trouble shoot your issue (missing driver, loose cable, etc)
In the LGMobile Support Tool Program click on Customer Support -> Recovery Phone
Choose Model : LGVS920
Input your IMEI from your phone or box into the S/N box and then click "check"
A box will pop up confirming your info. If all goes well a new window will pop up about downloading software. The file is about 800MB. Let it run it's course and you should be back up and running with a factory fresh phone.
If anyone runs into issues using this, please let me know. I stopped at the downloading step as I do not feel like re-doing all my system settings for a 5th time.
