ok, i solved the problem. if you have TWRP, do the following (credit: pancit):

Under TWRP, click Mount, click System, then go back to Home page.
Click Advance, click File Manager, browse to /system/lib
Look for libGLESv1_CM.so and rename it to libGLESv1_CMcf.so
Then, look for libGLESv1_CM_ORG_CF3D.so and rename it to libGLESv1_CM.so
Then, click chmod and change it to 644.
Look for libGLESv2.so and rename it to libGLESv2cf.so
Then, look for libGLESv2_ORG_CF3D.so and rename it to libGLESv2.so
Then, click chmod and change it to 644.
Reboot and wait. Phone is fixed.

This method worked for me absolutely fine.and im using my phone right now.so many thanks.i was going to be insane about a bricked phone.thanks thanks and thanks.TWRP is a very good and complete recovery btw.:highfive:

Help please!!

Sorry for troubling you guys, but I need some assistance, I was stupid enough to use titanium backup and my phone is one of those rare phones that isn't famous or anything its "Vodafone Smart 4" it doesn't have any available ROM or anything and I just can't do any more research(over 9 hours), so I decided to give up and ask you guys for help

can you please find a solution for this, and list down the method step by step?

I really hope you guys can help..... Thank you so much for looking at this reply..... SOS.....sos.......

HOW TO FIX Chainfire3d SOFTBRICK AND KEEP EVERYTHING

(I know this isn't a question, but it's a popular issue and many people seem to have it)

If you're like me, you installed Chainfire 3d, You ran the thing inside the app, it restarted your phone,
and you are just stuck at the boot screen. Don't worry, you can fix this without having to lose any of your files.
I would have killed to have a guide like this when my phone bricked instead of having to search the internet for
hours and hours trying to find a solution which was really cryptic.

1.www(DOT)youtube(DOT)com/watch?v=MVXX-YdhRU0
Follow this tutorial to install and open a program which you will use to delete the driver Chainfire installed.

2. Start your phone into recovery mode (home+volup+press+power)

3. Plug in your phone via USB cord to your computer.

4. Once you have adb opened in command prompt, type "su" (without quotes) to gain superuser acess

5. After that, you type "cd /system/lib" (Without quotes)

6. Then you type "cf3d_uninstall.sh" (without quotes)

Your phone should reboot back to exactly like it was before. All your files, apps, etc. will all be there. Now it is
time for you to uninstall that dreaded chainfire 3d app so you never have to worry about it.

Everytime I am giving some command it says error : closed .
It don't have any custom recovery installed so that I can flash its stock ROM. Tell me what to do

. I am attaching a snapshot of the adb cmd.
Please Help ASAP.

6. type "adb pull /system/lib /device" (in adb cmd)

What is adb cmd ? I'm stuck here. Are you referring to the adb.exe in sdk/platform-tools ? If yes, then its adb.exe is opening and closing automatically. Please help

My situation is kinda.... Different...

My device is an LG L60-X145

I can access recovery mode as what you have stated on step 2 but it can't be found or detected on my PC, thus, unable to use 'adb shell' > 'su' commands

My phone is stuck on manufacturer logo upon booting and nothing else happens...
And, yeah... Soft-bricked from using Chainfire 3D Pro v. 3.3

Is there any other way I could fix my phone since my device seems to be one of the most unpopular ones..

What if I can't enter recovery mode, it also stuck at LG logo? PLEASE HELP ME.

oznerol87 · Apr 26, 2015

No download mode or recovery mode

I have LG F160L, 4.1.2
I installed CF3D, then I was able to go to CWM recovery mode, but was unable to restore, it was unable to find any backup. So I tried to format system folder. Boom, stuck at LG logo, no recovery mode. I kept trying out to go to download mode with every possible combination on my hard keys, but still failed.

Any advice for my situation guys? The phone still charges, but it shows this message "Missing battery_charging_08.png" I'm guessing this is the picture of the battery charging.:crying::crying::crying:

Hey that's great, it works, it fixed my phone, but do you have something that makes it work instead of fixing it?
