16.10.2012 RIFF JTAG – LG P698 Optimus Link Unbrick – Dead Boot Repair Supported
Repairing bricked LG P698 is easy with the RIFF Box. But it requires non-beginner soldering skills (since JTAG pads on board are very small and are close to each other).
To resurrect LG P698:
- Solder JTAG cable to LG P698 JTAG pads;
- Insert USB Data cable into board and PC;
- Make sure LG P698 is selected in the list of models;
- Click Resurrect button;
- Wait till software signals a successful operation completion;
- Disconnect power supply, de-solder JTAG wires;
Now phone is in bootable condition, that is, even if it does not start up normally, you can flash it using known flashing methods.
