Just to be sure, are we talking about the rooted Galaxy 5.0 player or the Optimus V in the thread title? (and if so, is it rooted?)

optimus v

If you are not rooted, you can do the following ...

Remove the battery for a few seconds to make sure it's completely off. Replace the battery. Press and hold the volume down, home and power buttons until you boot into recovery. Select wipe data factory reset.

Never factory rest a rooted phone with a custom recovery. Try this: http://androidforums.com/optimus-v-...guide-unbrick-upgrade-optimus-v-easy-kdz.html
