[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
hey

I run the CMD

executed cd command but the next command

"fastboot erase recovery"

gives the following error ( see the image)

Please help :confused:
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
@arvinoids:- mate your work acted as a GOD to me for now. I solved my above issue by just googling the AdbWinApi.dll, downloading it and putting it in the same directory as the fastboot.exe

Thanks mate
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lekhwani:
Did rom manager messed up your phone?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Yes. For the first time.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lekhwani:
How is your phone now?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Revived now :rolleyes:
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lekhwani:
Good to hear that. I think this is your 2nd or 3rd day and you came across worst o1 modding scenario and overcame it. Kudos to you.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] arvinoids:
AdbWinApi.dll is included in platform-tools

Hi. Sorry I was away for the weekend and just got back. Thanks for reporting this. I just did a search on my desktop and found out that AdbWinApi.dll is included in the platform-tools package. I will add the instructions to download the package from the SDK. I'm glad you were able to revive your phone. Thanks again! ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] arvinoids:
I'm afraid your issue may not be a subject for this tutorial. Fastboot mode is activated when the phone's recovery image is broken. May I know how you are sure that the recovery is actually broken?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] pymebrahimi:
it dosent boot into recovery when i press combo buttons!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
What does it say, when you boot your phone ?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Well actually i would say instead of recommending people to download the whole tools pack, they can just download the AdnWinApi.dll (Provide a download link for it in your post)

Thanks again for your guide.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] pymebrahimi:
nothing.... just it stucks on LG Logo...
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lekhwani:
In general section there is a new tutorial, which relates perfectly to your situation. Go there. It has been created today only.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
How does it actually start, the problem ?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] whoru007:
Just working like a charm..
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lekhwani:
Did you solve your problem?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lekhwani:
Did you also was the nasty fastboot thing? So, was it easy as per the instructions in tutorial?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] arvinoids:
That can work, too, but in the long run, or if you are using the SDK for other things, it is helpful to get the entire package to avoid missing other components. Nevertheless, I am attaching that file to the first post for simplicity. Cheers!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] arvinoids:
That's really a very ambiguous issue you are having there. If recovery was damaged, you would not have been able to boot to the LG logo, and you would get the fastboot mode. The combo button you tried was volume down + Home + Power on? Note that on a phone without a custom recovery installed this would just restore the phone to factory defaults and reboots it.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] whoru007:
Here is the my case.

1. I have installed Custom LG Optimus One Recovery from http://androidforums.com/getitnowmarketing/330813-all-one-recovery-thread.html ...

2. Than I came to know that there is something called as ROM Manager... So Installed it and tried to backup existing Stock ROM (Experiment)

3. LoL Phone restarted in fastboot mode saying.. all the stuff listed in main post..

4. Tried to connect to USB... then thing started responding same way as in main post.

5. Just done all things needed... (make sure that you are installing latest drivers using B2CAppSetup)

6. DONE... Phone started with NO DATA LOSS!!

7. Wanted to put CyanogenMod.. So again Custom ThundgerG doesn't work. (Unable to Mount/Unmount SDCard)

8. Switched on phone using normal startup.

9. Installed ROM Manager.

10. First Installed ClockworkMod

11. Restart... Voila Custom ROM is replaced by ClockworkMod

12. Baked CyanogenMod and working fine...
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] gkarthik16:
Thanks a ton!

Man you saved my day! I thought my phone is dead after I got the udc_start() error on boot. Thanks a bunch!

This is why Android is great.. so much community support. :)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] arvinoids:
Well to be honest, the first time it happened to me, I freaked out so much that I just decided to reflash with the original firmware using KDZ. It sure fixed it, but everything was wiped out, and when I digged further, I found out that reflashing with KDZ is actually more dangerous than this tut! Anyway, I'm glad you got it fixed with the instructions. Android rocks!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] pestbest:
I'm sorry I don't seem to understand this... HOw do you cd to fastboot? And what do you do with the fastboot.zip and adbwin.zip .Please explain... the screen does show what you described when i connect to USB
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] :
Eh. Unless you are involuntarily stuck in fastboot mode (after bad flash), this guide is NOT for you. Move on.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] pestbest:
Lol this guide was for me. Thanks I managed to fix it! The clockworkmod flashing recovery screwed up... I just didn't know how to cd to the directory where fastboot.exe is but googling helped me. THANKS!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] evripidis:
when I type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

I get an error message that cannot write the recovery.img

What can I do im my P500?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lekhwani:
Everything is there in the post. I am afraid, can't help you more.

Try to read again. And flash recovery again.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] mvgadagi:
For me also erasing recovery worked successfully but flashing new recovery did not working
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] FnH84:
I'm trying to help my friend who did this, but he says that after he types in fastboot reboot, the phone just says "wait" and nothing happens. Any ideas?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] gokulvarma:

My phone is stuck in fastboot mode.

Now whenever I attach my phone to laptop, A found new hardware box opens up.

And in command prompt, when i type fastboot, it says "waiting for device"

I have all the drivers installed.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] BlackRose 22:
Step 3 don't understand what that means how do I access that or does it just pop up or something

Thanks
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] gkarthik16:
If you're running Windows, on your desktop, go to start -> Run -> and type "cmd"

The command prompt would open up and there it would be pointing to some directory by default, like C:\Documents and Settings\..

Go to the path where you've installed the SDK by typing "cd your-path" without the quotes.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] clawsright:
The same is happening with me

After entering the following command

fastboot erase recovery

it shows < waiting for device >
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] clawsright:
Can anyone of u help me ????

My phone is still stuck with Fastboot mode
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] mastershefis:
Did you follow step by step? Whats going wrong? ....
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] clawsright:
Finally, Recovered my phone by flashing KDZ through Emergency mode.. No other method worked..

I tried the method given in this thread it did not work.. i described it in my previous posts
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] sligh:
I would like to say thanks to arvinoids for this helpful thread. I bricked my LG P350 after trying to make a backup via ROM Manager. I just followed the instructions!

Thanks again!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] BlackRose 22:
So what do i do when a new cwm comes out like the new one that just came out do I use rom manger again or something else.

I hear you should flash clock work twice when using rom manger to make sure it sticks

LG O1 Running Cm7 Mik_OS 2.35
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] bullet_freak:

ur help will be really appericiated...

thanks
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] arvinoids:
Hi all,

I updated to CWM 5 just to find out what you guys are talking about. After getting the message that flashing was successful, I was able to reboot flawlessly to recovery mode. I restarted just to make sure and it worked as intended.

@BlackRose 22, just flash it from CWM. It should work, since it basically uses the same flashing method as it always has with the previous versions. Make sure that you get the success popup and you should be good.

@bullet_freak, I have not experienced this. Did you get the success popup? Note that if you received an error message on the first attempt at flashing (which I got, by the way), you should repeat until you get the success screen, otherwise the recovery image might have been corrupted.

Cheers all! ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Jgreenmusic:
After first command it says waiting for device... and thats it. What am I doing wrong that it wont recognize my device?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] mastershefis:
You have to try several options...disconnet phone from pc - uninstall all LG drivers - restart pc - install all drivers again - then connect phone to pc..wait for a while then your pc recognize phone..
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] lilliput222:
any1 whu is getting error of " waiting for device " download and install pdanet for lg it will solve ur prob ..and also thanks to me :P

Yikesss

My Lg Optimus one does not boot after i installed Battery Icon Mod.apk:eek:

My phone is just stuck at the android boot screen. I want to know if this method will help me revive the device.:confused:

When i try booting into recovery it says:

fastboot mode started

udc_start()

I really don't want to use the kdz method, as i have a lot of data and dont want to lose it.

I have a nandroid backup and all that. Can i go ahead and give this a try? And are there any risks of losing data if i use this method?

Edit : i chose the kdz method! and i screwed up the update process by accidentally selecting 3GQCT-Smartphone (WM) instead of 3GQCT :-(

And subsequently tried flashing by selecting 3GQCT, and that did not help .. My phone's COMPLETLY DEAD NOW..
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] shankesh:

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] fr4free:
Thank you very much ! In the first time I've tried with one computer but I received the message "waiting for device". I've tried as a last chance another computer. I've installed there drivers for LG, andoid SDK and I've done again the procedure.

So , people that are complaining about that message, try in another comuter and it will work !

My phone is saved now with no data loss ! Thank you again !

please take note take fastboot mode is also bootloader for our device
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Navs31:
How much time does it take to recognize the device ?

Its says < Waiting for device > for me :(
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Navs31:
I did everything as you said !

But there's some mistake in de files i think so..

Well I solved my problem by downloading Recovery from here

By guidance of this original post and by using some more fastboot commands , I found a process little bigger than this.

The process proceeds by the commands as below

Open command Prompt and get to the destination xxxx\android-sdk-windows\tools

All the drivers and Android SDK files can be downloaded from Here

Extract and get command prompt to the folder ''Tools'' which is present in de Extracted files.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dnle71:
This tut. was working for me some months ago.. The only wrong is that, the drivers are not working.:)

hey guys

I have an O1 and I rooted it yesterday. Root was perfect and nothing occurs during it. But unfortunately, when I installed rom manager and installed cwm recovery and when I rebooted into recovery there was fastboot. So I tried to fix it using thismethod but after doing this there was still the same problem. hopefully my phone still work normally except the recovery.(what I did is:downloading fastboot.zip and AdbWinApi.zip and extracted them in /tools of sdk, copying cmd in the same folder and using cwm to rvive the phone)

Please help me I really need your help

4.Installed android sdk latest version.

5.When typing erase recovery it says waiting for device...

Someone helpme please
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] shinobisoft:
ROM Manager doesn't always flash a recovery correctly, especially if the device isn't rooted. ROM Manager helped me brick a device. I don't use it anymore.

Uninstall all the drivers the support tool installed. Click the link in my signature and go download Android Flash Recovery. Unzip the archive anywhere you want and check put the README.txt, kinda outta date, and index.html in the help folder. Drivers known to work with LG Optimus One devices are provided in the USB/LGE folder.

Download a recovery for your device to PC also.

USB debugging must be enabled on the device for this to work.

If you can enter fastboot mode, Power+Volume Down+Home, I'm pretty sure this will work. It has for several others.

Good luck.

I will try bro.. BTW i was installing pdanet .. Its saying installing pdanet in ur phone for a long time??
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] shinobisoft:
Not sure. I've heard of PdaNet, but never used it. I know you have to install their app on your phone as well as your PC tho.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] carrthee89:

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] kitkatshabam:
installed everything but in command prompt it remains stuck on "waiting for device" and doesn't do anything? :(

what should be done?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] shinobisoft:
Did you install the LG Android USB drivers and is your device in fastboot mode? BTW, driver installation only works if the device is working properly.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] kitkatshabam:
Drivers are installed!! and phone is in Fastboot mode!! can't do anything!! :(
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] shinobisoft:
Try disconnecting your data cable, reboot device to fastboot mode ( pull battery then use key combos ), then try reconnecting the data cable. You may need to reboot your PC too.

Can also use LGMDP to flash recovery.

I am a Newbie

I did not understand completely.I downloaded SDK but does it have fastboot exe, what is cd, commands from where? Where is the recovery image,in sd card?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] firdyRAY:
My phone is not rooted but it's stuck on LG screen for the past few days.

So i decided to root.

I pressed (Home+VolUp+On) and it shows

Fastboot mode started

udc_start()

Plugged in the USB and it on show suspend.

Does that mean i can't use this method?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] hristodipchikov:
Your phone isn't bricked.

1.Download KDZ Updater and LG united mobile drivers

2.Dsable all LGE modems under modems from windows device manager.

3.Download the stock firmware

4.If your phone is stuck at fastboot mode started udc_start() screen, then remove the battery and reinsert it. Now press the back key and volume up button and simultaneously connect your phone to your PC. You will get a greenish yellow screen saying Emergency mode.

5.Run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe

6.Select Type as 3GQCT and select Phone Mode "Emergency"

7.Select the Firmware

8.Press Launch software update

9.Wait to Finish.

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] arvinoids:
Hello! Unfortunately I no longer have the O1, so I will not be able to replicate the issue. Note though that this is just a short method. You can always try doing the long method of flashing the entire firmware. As long as the computer can detect your phone, you should be fine.

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] kitu34:
I always get fastboot when I try to go into recovery using three buttons. Maybe I press or release wrongly, but I just remove battery and try again and it works.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ibub:
Key combination for fastboot is "home " and "power" buttons, so you probably didn't have "volume down" pressed all the way. Or maybe the button is getting worn out.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] kitu34:
Right on the button.

Sometimes it doesn't get pressed . Button is more or less dead . I'm a kind of novice only, it says senior member coz I ask too much or repeat when no one is willing to answer hehehe.

But I go into fastboot very often and I have no problems. Sorry if I'm being stupid, you all can carry on. I'll read later, if my phone allows hehe
