I have been reading threads until my eyeballs are falling from my head. I have an LG Esteem (ms910) GB 2.3.4. I flashed CM10 to it, just to look at it. Then I went to go back to gingersteem using CWM 6.0.1.1 Touch. Then I did stupid stupid, I think. I actually formatted the cache, system, and data, then I accidentally hit reboot system, before flashing the zips. Now it is stuck on the LG boot logo, it reboots to the same thing every 2 or 3 mind by itself. My computer reads the phone but not as any drive. I can't get it to boot into Recovery using the volume and power buttons (probably because it been formatted). I tried putting a recovery on the sd card directly without success.

I am begging. Please help. Did I f*? # up myself here?

Thanks

That was it? After all of the BS I went through. I could not find this simple solution. I bow to your awesomeness and thank you. Installing old rom now.

I have the same problem. I can't boot into recovery at all. Im rooted and I have cm10 installed. I tried to update cwm to touch and when I hit reboot, it started like normal but never went pass the lg logo. it just keeps rebooting at the lg logo. I have tried holding the pwr and vol buttons, all I get is the factory or hard reset. it doesn't work and I cant get into recovery. Someone PLEASE help me!!!!!!:(:(:confused::confused:
 
Just follow playfulgods instructions at the top. You will need a ROM to install.at hard reset, hit power button to reset and confirmed. then it will reboot to revery
 
I had to pull my battery to get it to shut off completetly. Unhook any charging cable.put battery back in, then try it. That is how i did it.
 
Then I am not quite sure. Did you lose your recovery somehow? I thought I had done that myself, but I followed Playful God's instructions, and it booted into recovery and saved my arse. Do you have a rom on the sdcard to flash? I'm sorry I don't know what else to do. I am a beginner myself and just getting into this. If I find a useful thread, I will let you know. I am surprised that the hard reset didn't work. Sorry.
 
However, how long do you wait when the logo pops up, as it did take me about 3 minutes to get to Recovery. Or is it still rebooting after 3 minutes by itself?
