What did you try to do?

 

[TheQuickShocker]

okay nvm i got it.. i just need to get a adb command to restore my phone. is there one?

 

[anthonycr]

If you flashed a recovery you can just boot into that and install a new rom, or if you made a backup before you bricked... which I highly doubt happened... you can restore it from recovery.
I recommend BACKside or Harmonia 2 roms, both are gingerbread

Ladies and gentlemen, I am at a loss...everytime my phone reboots, it cycles through the factory reset where it says (in yellow script) to not pull out the battery, formatting data, formatting cache, etc...

THE GOOD:

-I have jerryscripts BACKside IHO Cyanogenmod Rom flashed and it will load, though everytime I reboot, I start all over, but I can get to everything; market, file managers, terminal emulator

-I can access the phones through ADB

THE BAD:

-tried every method I've come across so far in the last 8hrs STRAIGHT!!! cannot get into fastboot to make any repairs that call for the 'blue screen'


-tried to flash_eraseall /dev/mtd/mtd8, but the flash_eraseall file could not be found

-tried to flash the xionia recovery through terminal emulator with root access (which worked for me before when I was having problems rooting)

-ROMtools claimed to have flashed the xionia recovery, but when it rebooted, it simply went back through the factory reset and then loaded up BACKside IHO

I'm getting sick of going through the first boot setup on the rom, not to mention not being able to save anything I set up on it since it will be gone next time I reboot.

Is there any way to kill the factory recovery loop from the rom? ADB? Any way to push the right flash_eraseall file to where it needs to be to take out the /dev/mtd/mtd8 file that seemed to work for a couple other people?

I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and have all the propoer LG drivers installed and functioning properly.

I also have two Clockwork backups on my sd card if there is a way to load one of those from the rom or adb. One is the stock Froyo build (rooted) and the other is my first setup for the BACKside IHO rom.

same issue...if you figure it out i need it here too

i keep getting the same message when i use the command prompt " ___ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"
my phone keeps booting up into ClockworkMod Recovery. I don't know what to do.
help please!

 

[JerryScript]

You need to have the command prompt window using the same directory adb.exe is in. So if it's in C:/android-sdk/tools/

cd C:/android-sdk/tools
adb shell

 

[lumberjackegg]

i don't know what C:/android-sdk/tools/ is. :I

 

[lumberjackegg]

p.s. i cant seem to use the command prompt for some reason.. any help would be nice

I am about to cry. My V has been bricked for 1 month it is stuck in clockwork mod 3.2.01 running Froyo 2.2.1. When i download Xionia Recovery it tells me installation aborted as i loaded it as a zip file, I have no money to buy a new phone and the kicker is i use a mac. with access to windows. Can this be fixed as ive read the threads but im not techically savvy as of yet, Any help that anyone can give me step by step id appreciate it. I also tried setting up adb but its not detecting my device unless i did that wrong. So please help me out.

Recovery images need to have an img file extension.
