    Killed my vx9900 is dead, need a bootloader mode code!!!!

    Does anyone know how to put a vx9900 in bootloader mode, I've tried *# and pwr at the same time, took the battery out, and also tried 5 and pwr, and nothing, the phone keeps going on a power up cycle. Please help
    Thank you

    I hope you didn't permanently damage your phone with the * and #, as that is a Motorola code for bootloader mode, which, as far as I have read lately is not good for your lg phone. People complained about it wiping their ESN - yikes. Holding down 5 while the phone powers on should bring up download mode. You have to hold 5 before you hit power and all the way until the download mode screen comes up.

    What did you do to cause your phone to die in the first place?

    thanks for the reply

    I actually got this phone from one of my customers like that, i'm trying to restore it, it's a brand new phone.
    I held the 5 key prior to holding the pwr button, and nothing happens I also tried it with the inside keys and the same response.
    any other suggestions? it keeps flashing the verizon logo
