Hello everyone, I have installed on my MetroPCS phone. The installation went well, but now I do not either vvia the phone. How can I fix?
 
We'd like to help you with your soft bricked phone but with out model #, carrier, and your attempted procedures, You sir are quit possibly on your way of creating a paper weight. Communication is how we operate here by both reading and writing . This can enhance your experience.

If you want help, you really need to provide more information. We don't know what phone you are using. We don't know what you were trying to do. Your post is very vague.

I have an LG Leon H340N. Yesterday I installed the firmware from the official site, now the phone will reboot continuously.
 
I installed from a MetroPCS KDZ file, the phone would crash at startup, so I downloaded LGMobile Support Tool and downloaded back to the original firmware. Now the phone reboots constantly.
 
Hmm Ok I see you have bricked your device and guess what,for me after spending $1500 and 4 bricked devices later from rooting my devices, I was the new owner of 4 beautifully designed paper weights. STOP ROOTING YOUR DEVICES!!!

Now your device is stuck in a bootloop which I've had before and got pass that by doing a hard reset.
 
Gentleman, I'm not familiar with the Leon, but most of the Metro LG phones have (at least in the past they have for the Motion and others) had a method of flashing back to stock. Is there a method for this phone? If so please direct @Torring to that method.

I hope to resolve the problem, there is not take it anymore.
 
Ok. so here is a thread on this very forum to un-brick your Leon. I don't know if it applies to your situation, but look at it and give it a try. This is specifically for your phone, and on this great forum, not some random generic website.

Edit:
Also, according to this website http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_leon-7053.php the Leon has a Qualcomm chipset (Snapdragon 410) and not a Mediatec chipset, so the link in a previous post won't even work for this phone.

So I just noticed that you said it was H340N. That's for O2, EE, Vodafone and 3, not MetroPCS. I don't know if there are any physical differences between your phone and the phone that MetroPCS put out, but you probably shouldn't have tried to flash a Metro firmware onto your phone. You should try and find a firmware for your specific phone model.

I downloaded the firmware from a website by entering the IMEI, now what should I do?
