Did you try to boot w/o the mSD card in?
Do you have fastboot enabled, can you push the update that way?

Em i have tried w/o sd, still same thing....cud u tell me the commands to push usin fastboot ?

Maybe you have a bad download, or just try a different rom, obviously you have the danger spl or else you couldn't be running the xrom, so we can count that out.

This sounds stupid but I did it once in my flash 3 times a day phase, make sure you spelled update.zip correctly and it's not udpate.zip or update.zip.zip or something like that.

Em isnt a issue cuz i use cyans newest recovery, where i choose which .zip file to flash.

We really need a log..
First off, you need to "cd" to the directory where the sdk is located on your hard drive. Have you ever used adb before?

Lol i have, i use it all the time. Im guessing the kernel isnt loading n because of tht i cant get a log. I do adb log but it just quits. Also i tried fastboot erase cache n userdata n then tried flashing again same thing. Created a ext partition in the thoughts tht maybe this rom needs apps2sd to work, samething nothing. After leaving it at first bootscreen went into recovery to see maybe some files were copied over to ext partition. Nope. Agh i hate this.

I am not sure why this is going on but I my self have flashed back and fourth from xROM to cm-4.0.4 with no problems on both fresh install and just a reg install and I have not had any problems bro I know you have been having this problem for a while and not sure why ill look into did you try that double flash like we did one time and it worked?

Just now went back to rc29 n redid the whole rooting process. After that i flashed cyan 4.0.4 and at first bootscreen it stayed for like 10-15sec then rebooted n now i have the same problem. Aghhh !!!!!

Oh n i flashed xRom 1.4. n in a matter of secs i c stuff appear when i "adb logcat". So xRom 1.4 works fine....

I hate this....agh !!!!!

So i convinced Manup to send me his img files. So he nandroided n then sent me those files. I did
fastboot flash boot boot.img
userdata data.img
system system.img
Worked fine....booted n fully.
Then did a wipe and now im getting this log error n after 2nd bootscreen im faced with a plain black screen with backlight.
I attached a log.

i see no checkin service being thrown up right before all the things die.
might have something to do with the build prop. when you boot with manup's files adb pull the build.prop and put it into the rom your flashing and sign it then try to flash it. i really don't know though. have you mentioned this to cyanogen?

Hey, em isnt build.prop rom specific ? so if he gives me his build.prop its from the update.zip the same one i downloaded ? i pm'd cyan a while back no reply though. I just feel the kernel isnt loading.(im talkin about if i install from update.zip and not from manup's imgs)

I dont know i'm not that technical. You could try replacing the boot.img in the update.zip with the one manup sent you. Have you tried posting that log in cyanogen's thread?

My Optimus 2x is in a boot loop, help!

Hi,
I have a problem with my Optimus 2x, it is rebooting without end, like in a loop !
1-the phone turns ON, the LG logo appears
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
2-then the scrolling image appears
3-then after 2 seconds, the phone automatically shut itself OFF
4- and then the phone automatically turns ON again. We are looping back to 1- without end.
What can I do to fix this problem?
I have important Memo notes and sms I don't want to loose !!
For information, I have this phone since April. On May, I have rooted the phone using Super One Click. Since then the phone was working perfectly. I never flashed a ROM on the device. The problem happened just after a normal usage of the phone.
I really need your help..
Chris

Not sure why this would happen on stock rom with normal usage I've only encountered this problem after flashing other roms, I used nvflash but if you go down that route you will lose everything. Tried battery out and sim for a few minutes?

If u have backed up using clock work mod .. then u can boot into recovery and restore

It was a stock ROM with normal usage. To be precise the problem arise, just after I selected the autorun option of the application Total Recall.
I have tried battery, sim, sd-card out, no success, the phone did not boot normally (not even once). As I can see nvflash is not an option as it is erasing everything.

Sorry, I didn't see your reply.
Kdz is only LG's firmware format.
All LG's phones can be flashed with kdz file by kdz tool (aka kdz updater).
Refer to this.
And Kdz tool at here.
and you have to need some kdz file for your p990.
(I have not but someone has it.)
In my case(su660) the type is "CDMA" and phonemode is "CS_EMERGENCY".
Request someone's advices more for p990.

Boot into recovery (holding Volume down and Power button) and factory reset, had the same problem yesterday when flashing CM7. Running fine now

I have looked at Smartflash, it is for flashing the Baseband (not the ROM itself), that means the software that has the GSM driver WiFi driver.
I don't see how Smartflash could help retrieving my phone with the important memos and sms.
Given that my phone is not booting, what can I do to retrieve the important memos and sms?

No, Smartflash will install stock ROMs in a .bin format as well.
Can you boot to recovery? (hold power and vol-)

As I have the stock recovery (the standard one that you get when buying the device), what will happen when I boot to recovery ? (does it do full erase of data?)
Four months ago I have rooted the phone using Super One Click. But I did not changed anything else: the recovery and the ROM are still the stock ones.

Yeah to the best of my knowledge, if you try and boot to the stock recovery, you will just get an automatic factory reset.

I quite liked it untill I failed to find a way to "power off"... Back to 5.0.2.8 for now.
Edit: But thanks The touch interface itself was a treat. The design made the direct "place finger on chosen option" approach, a little too clunky; but absolutely functional.
The real treat, was being able to use my touch buttons, rather than the mechanical power/volume buttons at the side and top of my phone.
Just a shame that there is'nt an option to shut down the phone for those of us with rebooting issues.

Yes, but rebooting seems to drastically increase the chances of my phone, not detecting my external SD card.
So CWM for me is something like:
1: Turn off phone ----> Pow + Vol = CWM
2: Power off when done with CWM
3: Turn phone back on.
Reboot and I'm going to have to have to shut down the phone regardless, because my external SD is'nt being detected.
I suspect it's because CWM mounts storage in one way, CM in another and LG stock in a third way; some sort of mounting information is carried over when rebooting and my storage management bugs out.

i also have this problem but when you are booted in the rom just reinsert your sdcard and it will be mounted no big deal for me

Isn't it more simple to have a power off option?
Opening your phone each time you perform a soft reboot...

I also have this "problem" but when booted phone after CWM no need to reinsert sdcard, just rebooted once more and everything`s fine. Today I`ll try new touch CWM.

I'd still prefer for power off to be implemented into CWM Touch.
Shutting it down and turning it back on is faster than rebooting and it's not an option with RAMhack kernels either.

I had the same problem and followed your method in earlier CWM. But with new CWM Touch, external SD card mounts ok when directly rebooted into system. No problem after 5/6 rebooting. Try and see.

[Beta]CapasOS Beta[Beta]

Please note I do not take any responsibility for any damage to your device or micro-SD
Hi everyone I am glad to finally write the beta of the all-Italian ROM CapasOS
How to install the ROM​I always suggest careful before you begin this process of having the battery fully charged at least 60% to minimize the rickshaw of freeze or a brick​
1) Get the rights of ROOT (if you do not know how to follow the guide here)
2) Install the ClockworkMod ( This ROM is compatible with all versions, if you do not know how to install guide here)
3) Download the archive of Capas (See end of post ) and move it to the root of your sd card
4)boot up your phones first time and after that reboot into recovery to flash the ROM( perform this procedure only the first time you install capasOS) ,Start the Recovery Hold down the HOME button (The one with the house) to the ignition and make a backup by selecting the backup / restore menu and then back up, let it work (at this time is bakup doing a full system so that if something goes wrong we can pick this up and get back the system we had before the beginning of the process)
5) Select the item Data Wipe / Factory Reset then yes and let it work (this will reset the device to Factory data, but do not worry the files that you had before are still present in the backup made in step 4)
6) Go into Advanced and select wipe Dalvik cache and let it work then yes
7) Head to Install zip from sd card then choose from ZIP sd card and select the file and confirm with yes the archive downloaded by end post 8) Let it work and at the end click on device reboot
9) Now you have the beta of Capas installed on your device screen and I leave you to
​Screen

This ROM is actually very fast!
I found a bug (at least its for me) the signal meter is not showing that the phone has a signal, but it actually has and you can call from it.
The 1.0 thing i fixed by editing the buld.prop file

Thank you however what is not true and own a bug, but it is a meter that approximates the data in beta 2 (which I hope to release soon) with the newly redesigned (but not yet final) of the graphics, the current meter will be replaced by a numerically meter more accurate gauge

when first stable version be released, i'll try it. it looks nice though.

Messed up 3 button recovery/download and CWM
Hi I received a Samsung Captivate as a backup option oh 4 months back or so. I use an sgh-i717 and have absolutely zero experience with the captivate. The other day though my Note starting having charging issues so I decided I better set up the Captivate in case the need actually comes for it. Well it already had CWM Recovery and a custom rom, I believe Continuum. Well I wanted to change the ROM but the information I was reading wasn't working and in my frustration I must've messed something up, but I do have step by step log that I wrote during whole process. I've already been reading a bit here but hoping someone can help speed me to info I need since I'm so utterly clueless to this phone.
Ok my current state is this. When booting the phone it displays AT&T screen then a screen that has the word Talon on it and there it remains. The USB apparently stopped working right before it was given to me although unsure to cause. Now the Download/Recovery 3 button combo did work but somehow I broke that and so now I cant really do anything without some help.
Ok here is log of what I did.
1. Boot into CWM
2. wipe data/factory reset
3. Cache wipe
4. Format SD Card
5. Format Cache
6. Format Data
7. Format System
8. Wipe Dalvik Cache
9. Power Off

Hi I received a Samsung Captivate as a backup option oh 4 months back or so. I use an sgh-i717 and have absolutely zero experience with the captivate. The other day though my Note starting having charging issues so I decided I better set up the Captivate in case the need actually comes for it.

Well basically you erased everything on your phone without flashing another ROM, hence why it won't fully boot up.
If your usb port isn't working, you'll have to use an external sd and put a ROM + kernel on it (that are 2.2). I suggest Firefly and Speedmod. From there, you'll have to boot in recovery and flash both (ROM first).
Without a working usb, you can't use Odin to flash the stock image on your phone so hope that you can get in recovery!
