  •  Insert USB Data cable into board and PC;
  •  Make sure LG F260S 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

To enter emergency mode:

  •  Disconnect PC cable;
  •  Insert battery;
  •  Hold both ‘Volume down’ and ‘Camera’ keys and press ‘Power ON’ button.
