Root LG L70 D320N bricked!

Ok, so I managed to brick my LG L70. I can operate only from fastboot (no download, no cwm).
I tried to flash stock rom kdz file, but my PC won't recognize phone USB connection.
I also tried to flash cyanogenmod12.zip via fastboot, but it says ''error archive doesn't contain 'android info.txt'''

Can some1 pls help?! :(
 
Did you make a Nandroid backup or at least do a system dump before bricking?

If you have fastboot working you *should* be able to flash individual .IMG files from your backup/dump contents.

Or you can flash a CWM recovery.IMG file to the recovery partition. If that does it you can then flash your CM zip
 
Well, I did some kind of a backup - I backed up stock rom with settings before flashing custom rom, but I don't know if it is Nandroid backup or not, I'll have a look tomorrow, when I will be able to put externalSD in other device to read what's on it...
And about cwm recovery.img file - yes, I can flash it from fastboot, but for some reason I cannot boot into cwm (dunno why; 1st time (before brick) I managed to boot cwm from phone system on AND via commands via adb)... Or mb there is a way to boot into cwm from fastboot?

Thnx for answering!

fastboot boot recovery.img

fastboot boot is only 1-time thing but can really save you at some points ;)

fastboot right? easy fix

go to fastboot and

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (or whatever the recovery file is named.)
fastboot reboot recovery

have an sdcard ready and flash the zip.

And when I do fastboot boot recovery, it says no such file or directory:

'fastboot boot recovery' someone did a mistake

either you're trying to do

fastboot boot recovery.img
or fastboot reboot recovery.

Alternatively, there's a key combo to enter recovery/CWM. A little tricky to master, but a lifesaver :)
power off the phone, press and hold vol down, then press and hold power button. When LG logo appears, release power button for about one second, then press and hold again. It will lead you to a factory reset mode (don't worry). Confirm twice and you should boot into recovery :)
 
Okay my LG L70 is totaly dead ... when I connect to the pc just black screen and no vibrates nothing , i cant restore , no dowboad mode or recovery just black screen and thats it .. how to fix this problem ?
