Right now it is likely that anyone here will brick due to the LG Optimus Regard having a secured bootloader. Flashing this firmware is your best shot at fixing any brick and back to stock, but this will not erase your contacts/apps/text messages/etc.

All things you will need:

• Download firmware from here: LG Optimus Regard (LW770) Firmware
• Download the programs to convert and flash firmware: KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.zip

How to get your LG Optimus Regard into emergency mode:

• Hold Power+Volume Up+Volume Down
• To get out of e-mode, pull battery (do not do this while flashing firmware!)

How to Flash / Fix / Return a bricked LG Optimus Regard back to Stock:

1. Install phone drivers (http://www.lg-phones.org/lg-optimus-regard-usb-driver.html)
2. Extract the KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.zip, install msxml.msi
3. Disable antivirus software
4. Open UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe
5. Wait for the program to open
6. Look for “Encrypt cab file to kdz file”
7. Click the folder icon
8. Choose the location of the cab you downloaded for LW770 firmware
9. Encrypt cab -> kdz Program will freeze up. DO NOT EXIT until program says Done!!! Otherwise it won’t finish converting.
10. Close program
11. Open KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
12. “Type” choose CDMA
13. Choose in “Phonemode”: Emergency
14. Click the folder icon and choose the kdz file that UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe just made.
