[Q] Cannot install ClockworkMod Recovery, stuck reboot loop. Please Help

Hello
I recently got a LG Optimus 2x phone from Wind Mobile in Canada. I was successful in rooting the phone using Super One click and was able to install and run Titanium Backup, Busybox and a few other apps requiring root Access.
Following the numerous guides on the internet, I tried to install the ClockWorkMod Rom Manager (from the market), but when i click on the "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and select my phone it will download across the top and give the error "an error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands". When i try to run anything else after I get a force stop error and eventually my phone will just restart on it's own and go into a Loop.
At this point i have to hold down the power and volume down key to boot into the recovery, but most if not all my apps are gone at this point.
I have tried to run the the "Fix Permissions" command from clockworksMOD but that does not work and the same errors happen.
A few extra notes:
I did it with and without an SD card installed
USB Debug mode and install from Unknown Sources are enabled
I do not turn on USB storage
I have tried unrooting and re-rooting and doing everything over but issue still persists
Problem summarized
-With USB debug and install from unknown sources enabled, rooted phone via Super One Click
-After reboot installed and tested several apps that require Root; Titanium Backup, SU, Reboot and system Utilities
-Installed ClockworkMod (Free) from the Market
-When trying to run "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and select my phone it will download across the top and give the error "an error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands".
-Shortly after my phone will get stuck in a reboot loop, which i have to boot in recovery mode to get back in
-"Fix Permissions" does not help and goes back into reboot loop when done
What i want to do in the end is install Nandroid to backup my current Rom, then install some custom roms to see which best suits my taste. Any ideas how i can fix this issue i am having or any places that show how to fix it, i have checked for hours on end but can't find anything.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Did you make sure to clear the various chaches before flashing the new ROM?

Okay i found the problem.
Wind Mobile sells it as a LG Optimus 2X but it's a p999 meaning it's the T-Mobile LG Optimus G2x
Once i selected the G2X from the Clockwork Mod it worked. while the Optimus 2x was giving me the problems
This is big news as the phone was just released yesterday i can expect a lot of people in the next few days asking about Wind Mobile LG phones

Works with Mobilicity unlocked Version of same phone.
Thanks for the heads up Since both phones operate on AWS I'm sure there will be same issue with Mobilicity.

i have had the same problem
thanks for your guide.

Man... thank you! I thought I bricked my phone...

Dang, I should've read this first. Damn Wind for using Optimus 2X name
So I'm stuck on LG logo after installing ClockworkMod and selecting Optimus 2x. Did the hard reset with volume down key, but just stuck in "S/W Upgrade. Please wait while upgrading..." screen. Is it normal to be this long?
Can't access phone/recovery menu at all. I'm lost now. Should I attempt to restore the original wind ROM somehow?
Edit: Managed to run ClockworkMod Recovery by following this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
Will try again now using G2X :|

you should reflash the phone. it will stuck there forever if you did nothing with it. it's meant to be flashed with rom.

I had the same problem, just hold down the volume (down), power and home key. It'll factory reset ur phone..

Hey guys,
I bought a brand new Optimus 2X from Wind and I unlocked it to use with Mobilicity in Canada.
It was working great for the first day, but then when the battery died and I charged it, it just keep rebooting.
It turns on, but it won't load anything past the Wind mobile start up. It just keeps relooping.
Any suggestions?

try flashing or updating to the T-Mobile G2X rom with gingerbread 2.3.3 by following this:

[Q] Revo goes back to Recovery when it dies

Hi i rooted my revo with superoneclick and it runs gingervolt2.0. It ran great for about 3 months? and then every time the phone dies and i turn it back on it boots into recovery mode and i have to hit reboot, after that when it reboots i get a vzw update message and when i try to update it tells me theres a problem with the update...can anyone tell me whats going on?
If you need anymore info please lmk, its 2am and im tired.

Your phone has downloaded the ZV8 update and is trying to push it at boot. It will fail every time since you're on root with cwm. Browse the Dev forum for several methods of updating to the most current build.

[Q] Help.. AP mode only - after succssful root

I apologize first that I am completely confused after reading posts for hours trying to fix my problem. Second, I know enough to get myself into trouble & I've succeeded. I'd been running Icarus 183 on my previous Bionic for months, so after shutting the truck lid on it, I set out to install the same on my replacement. Not realizing that JB had been released is where my ^$&#& happened. Here's the order of what I did which has lead me to a phone that boots to AP mode when you turn it on, or to the menu when holding both volume keys and powering on. If I go thru the power keys and select normal boot, I get the red dot and the screen will stay backlit.... nothing else.
1] New replacement phone: I used the Virtual Machine program to root.... This worked perfectly.
2] Goomanager had reinstalled from my google account, but I don't think I had ever used it.
3] I had installed Icarus thru the safe strap (3.05, I think) on my old phone. I went ahead and installed this again (no problems so far)
4] I started to install Icarus thru safestrap again, but I didn't like partitioning, so I figured I would download and install a rom using GooMgr
5] I believe I chose a rom named "Carbon" from those roms GooMgr stated was compatible... When I ran GooMgr nothing appeared to happen, so I rebooted the phone thinking I would just go ahead and install Icarus using safestrap.
6] When I pressed the button to boot into safestrap, the Carbon rom I had started to load began to run.. (apparently GooMgr could not reboot due to having safestrap installed??)
7] Naturally, the installed failed, giving me the dead android symbol... I removed the battery to reboot, but only AP mode comes up.
8] I am still at this point, having tried RSD Lite 5.7, updated Motorola drivers, and have now tried as who knows how many fxz files to restore it..
9] RSD Lite continues to fail at step 5 , where the phone reports "FAIL"
All I want is the stock JB back, so I can be up an running again.

WOW! Sorry for the problems. I wish I can help but I'm not too familiar with returning your phone back to stock. I do have one piece of advice. Go to YouTube and look up Tomsgt123. His website is rootjunky.com. Really great guy. He responds very quickly. Good luck.
Sent from my XT875 using xda app-developers app

If fxz fails why not try recovery mode flash using sd card?
Just follow the directions for 'manual JB' flash.

[/COLOR]Use a more recent version of RSD Lite for the latest JB FXZ files. 6.1.5 is the current RSD Lite release version.

You don't need to install the MTK patch included with this release.

UPDATE.. Since I need this phone for my business, I couldn't take the extra time this week to sort it out... Ended up going into a Verizon store & told them what I did (honestly)... They were surprised I was telling the truth & made arrangements for a warranty exchange.. Got the new phone today and up & running on stock rom... I'll be more careful and thanks for the advice above.. I'll make sure I am using the correct software next time.
Thanks for the responses.

[Q] USB/Blackrose Bad Combo Help

Hiya!
Been on the forums for years modding my Nexus One and would like to thank everyone for their humongous contribution! 3 years of constant upgrading and improving of what turned out to be the best phone ever!
Now, I've come to an end where my self-confidence took over caution and preparation and i think i've made a boo-boo.
Long story short, i have a unlocked Nexus One that has been running a CM10 ROM with Blackrose for a good 6 months. Most of the functions were working fine, except for a few glitches, but last night i decided to go back to the roots, and install a stock Gingerbread ROM. I found a unrooted GB ROM, and went straight on to renaming it to PASSIMG, throwing it on card and rebooting. Now that's where the funny things started:
First, all goes well, click Volume Up, get it started, and than a screen with all OKs except for [7] BOOTLOADER - Fail-PU and a message saying 'Only Blackrose can be flashed'
Next, I get 7 OKs, except for BOOTLOADER, and the following: Partition update fail! Update fail! Do you want to reboot? Y/N
Figuring i forgot to uninstall Blackrose and need to do so, i let it restart, it comes up with a clean un-rooted GB ROM, and here's where my troubles start.
1. USB Connection: Plug it in, laptop doesn't recognize it at all. Classifies it as 'Unknown Device' and that's it. Tried fresh drivers, Universal Naked Drivers, SDK drivers, ASUS tablet drivers, nothing. Tried 3 cables, the HTC one, a Blackberry one and a Samsung one. Nothing. Uninstalled all USB hubs/devices, restarted the laptop multiple times. Debugging ON/OFF, no difference. I'm at a loss here, no clue what else to try!
2. Fine, i thought, let's flash a rooted rom! PASSIMG on the card, phone finds it, gets to the line 'Parsing... Passimg.zip' and goes back to the neutral screen. Tried it multiple times, different ROMs, nothing.
3. At this point, figured maybe an earlier ROM will cause an OTA update and fix things up. FROYO PASSIMG on the card, flashed 'succesfully', just like in #1, reboot to clean un-rooted FROYO. Checked USB connection, same again. OTA Update - constantly failed.
Been reading through Wikis and Q&A's here all day today, everything seems to be so easy to fix as long as you get a live ADB connection, and i know i could fix it, but i just can't get the laptop to recognize the bloody phone! Do not have access to another computer just now, so can't check whether it's just my Vaio.
So now, the questions:
1. Any other ideas on the USB issue? The phone does not display the usual 'choose your option/mass storage...' when connected, and nowhere in the menu is there an option for that.
2. When booting into recovery, i get the green droid with the white triangle and the !, and then get into the 3e recovery that has an 'update.zip' option. can i install a custom recovery without the phone being rooted? just of the sdcard? is there an update.zip that can re-stock my HBOOT?
any other ideas will be greatly appreciated, as of right now i am stuck with a FROYO handset that is perfectly capable of running JB, and it's really frustrating!
thanks in advance for all your help, cheers!

Moto X 2013 Won't Boot After Stock Flash and Stock Update

So here's the deal. I had a Moto X Dev Edition with TWRP recovery and the latest CyanogenMod ROM, working properly.
I returned to stock using a Motorola ROM and their instructions, did get a gpt_main error in the process, but since it worked for a certain Reddit user (goo.gl/2sEmjz -- can't post links yet!) I decided to continue. It booted fine into stock, but when I did system updates, it would reboot into TWRP. So I flashed the recovery.img file. After that, the phone booted, then rebooted, and went into a recovery "installing updates."
I walked away for a second, came back, and the screen was black. I can't "force it off," it doesn't appear to be running, and I can't get into fastboot. Is the phone bricked (which I'm leaning to), or is it still running and I just need the battery to run out, or is there some other way to revive this phone via USB?
Hoping there's some expert I can get advice from, and thanks in advance!
