Rooting, Unlocking and Flashing Recovery and ROM on my Sprint LGOG
Alright expets I need desperate help.
I am able to root my Sprint LGOG, but the moment unlock it using FreeGee it softbricks my device. If I root it only, it works fine but Recovery wont work. I need help finding the proper procedure to Root, Unlock and Install Recovery w/o softbricking my device.
I have had HTC and Samsung devices in the past and never hadths issue wit either. Is it an thing?
Any help I can get is appreciated.

Have you tried flashing a teenybim through LGNPST? That should help your softbrick/flashing roms situation

Thank you for yur reply.
I have been using LGNPST to restore my device after softbrick, but I am not familiar with rooting and unlocking through LGNPST. Can you refer me to a port that shows how to do that?
Again, Thank you fr your help.

Wow, thank you sooo much. I tried the second option and it seems to be working. I am currently downloading a different ROM to test. Will update you soon.
Thnks.
I flashed Revolt and it got stuck on Revold logo screen. I cant do wipe data, or cache data because i keep loosing my back ups.
How can i flash a rom and wipe device, cache and dalvik cache without loosing my back ups and having to restore back to stock everytime?

Update: Problem is fixed. Thanks for all the help in this thread. I downloaded the stock ROM and flashed it.
I ended up following a guide to increase the brightness on my AT&T Galaxy SIII (SGH-i747). I was an idiot not to check that the ROM for the international version. A factory reset did nothing. It now never gets past the Samsung loading screen.
This is the mod I tried to install: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695559
I can get to ClockworkdMod Recovery and Odin's recovery.
Reverting to stock kernel using the link below doesn't fix it.
http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-sgh-i747-att-stock-kernel-99790/
Any ideas on what I can do?
Not too familiar with the s3...But after the flash did you wipe cache /dalvik.... Or whatever they call it now in the s3?
Also doing a battery pull for 10 to 20 minutes sometimes works.

I did wipe the dalvik
Go to android development and use the att link in the topic no tripping stock Counter root something or another..
That will bring your ROM to root.. It's not a kernel problem..
I think that should work. I'm not a pro but fairly confident that will fix you..

Thanks for the suggestion. I've fixed by finding the original stock ROM. It was painful, but it was a good learning experience.
I was trying to flash Dagr8's ROM and I wiped my data in TWRP and my phone just boot loops now. I can get into recovery and wipe/flash to my heart's content, but the result is always the same. The phone just boot loops between the samsung logos. Is there anything I can do through ODIN or anything else to fix this?
You need to flash a bootchain. Preferably a custom bootchain.

I too am having this problem on my t-mobile note 2, tried flashing different roms, kernels, wiping everything, flashing with odin, any advice would help. I dont know anything about boot chains, been a flash a holic for many years, and normally if I have a boot loop problem, I just flash a different rom, but no luck with this one.
Try removing the battery, then go into recovery.

Hi All,
Couple days ago I tried to flash my note2 with mobile odin back to stock rom but something went wrong and since I have not been able to get past the welcome screen *Samsung Galaxy Note 2*. I can get into a recovery screen but I am unable to choose a new rom to flash with.
I ve tried to flash it with odin 3.07 and via kies but no joy.
At this stage I am quite desperate to get this resolved. Can anyone help me?
Download correct stock rom to pc. Mount SD Card in recovery. Transfer file. flash from recovery.
Flash stock rom via pc odin
make a nandroid bake up as soon as you root your phone next time.

Unfortunately I do not have that option. I only have volume up to continue or volume down to restart. When I go volume up the phone goes into download mode.
Yeah. Then you have to flash stock firmware.

He would have lost his data then. Flashing doesn't remove data.

True but i had to use Odin and every guideline said the filed had to color yellow while for me it stayed blue but i figured heck at the moment it's just a paperweight so I don't have a lot to loose.
Now Rooting it again and placing my nandroid back up back and I am all sorted.
Thank you again!

I lost my data anyway I had backed it up with titanium but ran into problems restoring it... Lesson learned to create an image of my Android once I got it sorted again.
Thanks
I had the same problem and almost had a heart attack thinking I bricked my phone when downgrading back to 4.1.1... Needless to say I just had to do a factory reset in recovery and it worked fine
Ok so I'm hoping you guys can help me out with this, but I decided to root my T999 S3 tonight and after installing the custom rom, I'm left with no signal, no IMEI, no nothing, I've tried searching and every thread for some reason has links to other threads but I click on those links and they dont work Anyway I rooted using Odin and installed the latest version of Paranoid Android, any help is greatly appreciated guys!
Alright, by the grace of God, I somehow managed to fix my problem and get data back! Back when I was installing the rom I first installed it and then thought, I should make a backup, although I should have made the backup before installing anything, but I was too excited and it was already too late, but after the backup I decided to reinstall the rom and after booting up ive had problems. I reinstalled to he rom but still no network. Anyway I decided to go back and restore to that backup and BAM! I got data and everything! well I just thought I'd update the thread with what happened and my fix.
Flash the room again, if you get the same problem again, reboot your phone. It's apparently an issue with 4.3 roms.

Yup, that's just assuming though. You never actually told us what exactly you were flashing. For the future, info like that is extremely helpful.
In my T999L thread, linked in sig, after root instructions you will find how to backup nv data. I suggest you do this before anything else.

Does anyone have a baseband fix. I can't connect to the Sprint mobile network. I feel like i've tried everything. Any ideas? I've tried going back to stock, flashing radios/modems/kernels. Any help would be appreciated.
What did you do to get this problem? Knowing the background will help us help you.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Did you flash Aospa 4 or cm11 through TWRP? if I remember in both threads they say to flash via CWM or you'll lose your baseband. You might have to flash a total stock image via Odin to fix it.

yeah i flashed Aospa, but i did do it through CWM...for some reason my SD card wouldn't work after the update so I went to downgrade back to stock. I tried flashing from ODIN with the stock image but it was failing at the boot.img part every time. Maybe I got a bad stock image? I'll search for the stock through xda and re download and try. just sucks because it took almost two hours to download. thanks again for everyone's help.
Well I have lost baseband along with all the other info countless times. The fix is not very hard. If you still need help I can help you out later today.
