flashed clockwork recovery for Optimus 2x on the Optimus black

I`ve flashed the clockwork mode for the Optimus 2x on the Optimus Black and now the phone is stucked on the LG logo and nothing works (like hard reset - I`ve tried vol down button + power; and vol down button + home + power and nothing happens) any ideas what should I do?

Reflash stock rom when its available.

This, unfortunately.
You are completely boned until someone finds and hosts a complete stock ROM. In fact, you're probably best off just taking it back and playing dumb.

i`ll try getting it back to provider and complain but if that doesn`t work, how to flash a stock rom (when available) if i can`t enter recovery mode and phone isn`t starting up ...

Smartflash will hopefully be available on the phone (turn it off, pull the battery, hold vol down and plug in the USB cable, if you're lucky it'll say something about software update on the screen)

I`m not that lucky...i did what you`ve suggested but only the LG Logo appears. thanks for you`r quick response

Same here! Help needed!
I've flashed many ROMs, but today decided to use ROM Manager, it update ClockWorkMod Recovery, but then when I try to go in recovery, only stuck at LG logo!!!
Now, can't get into recovery or boot loader... phone looks bricked!?
Did you find a solution to this problem or returned the phone for servicing???

Well sorry for you... but in case, I found this link here that explains how to recover using NVflash, if this still works.
You have to press vol up+down while plugging into the USB, then you get dark screen on the phone and a new hardware on Windows! That worked great!
Hope it helps anyone in this bad situation!

I'm afraid you need to reflash it using smartflash for p970, you need the .bin file to do that. Someone made it available for p990 so if your lucky someone must have uploaded also for p970.

[Q] Stuck on LG logo after CM7! help!

I recently installed CM7 after rooting my phone with Superoneclick and installing Clockworkmod. However, after installation of CM7, i managed to boot up the system, played around with it and realised that i needed to install the google addon as well. So i rebooted the phone to enter into CWM recovery, however the problem started.
My phone is now stucked on the LG logo screen and would not change. I left the phone in that state till the battery went dead. Recharged the phone and it remained on that screen.
Tried to connect the phone to the PC to flash it with smartflash, but it doesnt work at all. I removed the battery and held the volume down button while plugging in the usb cable. All i see is the phone stucked on the white LG logo screen.
Is there any way that i can reformat the contents of the phone or is my phone certified?
All help would be much appreciated!

Power up directly to cwm by pressing power button and volume down key at the same time.
Once in cwm, full wipe including /system and reflash cm and gapps.
Good luck.

I have tried that method as well. Sorry. Forgot to mention it in my initial post. It didn't work. I have tried to pull the battery, hold down the volume down and power button for at least 20 times now. Each time i get the same screen. The CWM menu does not come up.
Any other ways?

Hmm.....if u can't power to cwm directly then perhaps try smartflash to any stock rom.
1. Download any stock rom
2. Start smartflash app from pc
3. In power off mode, just press volume down to boot to software update screen. Start smartflash stock rom.
4. Boot up stock rom
5. Install rom manager and flash cwm from rom manager. (Or download cwm from Rusty! Cwm thread)
6. Boot to recovery
7. Flash cm rom
8. Flash gapps

Remove battery, hold both vol buttons and plug in USB. Screen should stay blank, but Windows will pick up an APX device. Now NVFlash back to stock and start again.

yup, tried the exact method that you suggested too. But it doesnt work. Still gets stuck at the LG logo.

This method worked! But i have another problem, windows found an APX device, tried to install it but failed. It says driver was not found. Do i have to install a specific driver for this to work? Thanks!

Yes, good point: http://android.modaco.com/topic/335...k-rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15032011/

I have managed to flash the phone and it is back working now. Thank you so much for your help rusty and temasek!

Hi, first post, hope the thread is not too old.
Unfortunately this is my best chance.
I have the same problem on my O1:
Updated from mik's beta 6.5.7 to beta 6.5.8 with the clockwork manager, at the reboot, I was stuck on lg logo.
Unfortunately usb + both volume buttons didn't work.
It remains still at the lg logo.
Pressing home + both volume, it repeately reboots.
In every case I can't go in recovery mode, so I can't wipe the system folder.
Any help will be appreciated,
thank for your time!
PS: sorry, maybe thread in p500, cm7 will be more appropriate.

hold power button + volume down button for 5-10 seconds may work, phone will reboot into recovery mode, then you are able to flash a stock rom or restore your nandroid-backup (if you made one)
good luck, hope it helps you

thanks, I saw a useful post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18531050#post18531050
Then I proceded as you wrote.
Now I'm stuck at adroid logo, without the chance to wipe cache.
The recovery does not start: loading bar and then forced reboot...
I don't know what to do

nvflash
maybe you try this link
android.modaco.com/topic/335416-nvflash-setup-instructions-drivers-links-active/
Sorry, i don't get the link working, copy it in your browser, then it should work (i'm posting with my phone that's why the link is'nt correct, but it works with browser, i tried it out)

If the link doesnt work, search 'nvflash lg p990 instructions' with google, you'll see the modaco website with the instructions and the download links

Thank you. A few hours ago, I managed to make it working.
Thanks for your answers, I appreciated.

nvflash is the way to go. Always make sure to use the usb ports on your motherboard (back of your computer) and not some usb hub or so.
Had a black screen for 8 hours, not able to boot, flash, recover or anything.
Changed usb port and I was able to flash the phone again.

Stuck in Boot and no way to enter Recovery

Hello LG-2x owners !
I am in a big mess!
I just installled a new rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1699066
My Problem:
When I start my phone , it stucks in the boot. The bootlogo appears, it loads a few seconds and then it just reboots. Over and over again. No deal, I dealed allready with a thousands of bootlops but I cant enter the recovery menu in this case.
Why not? I push all the buttons like Power + Volume Up or Power + Volume down but it enters the boot.
I am so confused and out of plan.
How could I fix it?
Please help me XDA-Community!

Are you pressing the volume and power button past the first LG logo (white only) until you get to the second LG logo (with blue halo in background)?
Try releasing the keys only after you see the second logo.

Thanks for your reply, buddy
I really appriciate it.
The logo wih the colorfull background is not appearing. Thats the main problem, the entrance to the recovery is not there anymore. No colorfull lg logo, nothing.
Its like this: I push the requiered buttons at the very beginning, while pushing this buttons the phone starts. The LG Logo appears (without Background) and the bootlogo appears from this rom.

You might have to reflash your phone and start all over again. Check here for an emergency flash.

Assuming you have it backed up, you can also try this to hard reset:

This will ONLY work if you're able to boot your phone normally, and able to access the menus. And if he has CWM installed, holding the power button + vol down will enter CWM automatically. Correct me if I'm wrong!

Hes right. I allready tried it. Not working.
Could you PLEASE make a detailed guide for me?
I just dont understand how to install ne nv flash drivers and stuff.
Please make a tutorial for me becuase I dont get the other one

Take a look here.

I saw this link allready but I dont understand the thing with installing the "ATX drivers".
I dont understand it because I got german windows and on top of that there are no photos or anything to know what he means so could you make something else to make it easier to understand?

Do you have take out the accu, take back in, and then hold power and vol-down till 2. boot logo appeared?
Gesendet von meinem HTC One S mit Tapatalk 2

it cant be more easy.
after you pull out the battery you press vol down vol up and connect with data cable to pc. nothing appears, but you go to control panel, then to system and there to device manager, you will se list of all devices and one of them will have some symbol. i think its question mark, you will click it with right mouse button and choose update driver, you will click find driver manually and find the directory with driver extracted from downloaded archive. click ok and driver is installed.
then you can navigate in windows terminal to folder with extracted archive and run the *.bat script with internal or external storage. you can download archive with whole rom on other threads or forums and by run the *.bat load new rom t phone

INSTALLING NVFLASH UTILITY (USING WINDOWS 7)
1. Download NVFlash Utility and Drivers here, and extract to a location of your choice (e.g.: Desktop);
2. Turn off your phone, remove the battery, SIM card and external SD;
3. Hold VolUp + VolDown buttons at the simultaneously and plug in your USB cable (if you use a desktop computer, I recommend using your rear USB ports). Your phone will show a black screen and you should see Windows trying to install a new device, but failing.
4. Right click on the notification showing a failed driver instalation (bottom right corner of your screen), and select 'Update device driver';
5. Select 'Browse computer...', and then select 'Let me pick...', followed by 'Have disk'.
6. Browse to directory you extracted the the zip you downloaded earilier, and point to 'usbpcdriver';
7. Accept any warnings, including the big red alert (you may need to disable UAC);
8. Now in Device Manager under 'USB Controllers' you should have an 'NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for mobile devices';
If everything goes alright, you should now be prepared to flash your phone using NVFlash.
FLASHING YOUR DEVICE
This is the easy part.
Just go to the folder where you extracted the zip, and run 'flash'.
Wait until the utility works its magic and when complete, disconnect your phone from the USB cable, put the battery back in and SIM Card, and reboot to the stock LG ROM.
First boot might take a while, but it will eventually boot and that's all there is too it.
Hope this helped!

Hi!
I didn't noticed that your phone doesn't go to nvflash mode. Try to press the two volume buttons really really hard. My volume buttons got really unsensitive after 2 years. So I am also strugling with my phone to get it to nvlfahs mode.
Go to this thread.
Download AIO-TOOLKIT.
Install AIO-TOOLKIT.
Remove the battery from your phone
Connect the USB cable to your phone while you are pressing volume up & down buttons.
If you haven't installed APX drivers before, then windows will notice a new hardware and it will try to install the drivers for it, but it will fail.
Start AIO-TOOLKIT.
If you already have APX drivers installed skip this step. If you don't have the APX drivers installed, then press "I" (capital i), After that a window will apear. Just follow the instruction.
In AIO-TOOLKIT at the Main menu press number 4.
On the next screen you can decide between the new and old pt layout and bootloader. Keep in mind that whatever you choose you have to flash the correct rom for the correct bootloader+partition layout. So the new MIUI roms are only for the new bootloader and layout, old miuis like the 2.7 is for old bootloader. Here in the developement forum you can find CM10.1 roms which are made for new and old bootloaders, you just have to download the correct one to your actual bootloader. So press number 1 or number 2
Whatever you choosed at the previous step, press number 1, unless you want to do dualboot (two type of andorid on your phone). If you want dualboot then press number 2 and follow the instructions on the screen.
On the next screen you have to choose between 3 cwm version. If you selected the new bootloader I recommend to use cwm 6.0.2.5 or twrp 2.5.0.0. If you choosed oldbootloader I recommend you to use cwm 5.0.2.8 or twrp 2.5.0.0.
On the next screen, after you choosed your custom recovery, type "ok" (without the " marks) and hit enter.
Now the phone is going to be reparititonated and etc... so your phone will work again.
After the flashing ended wait about 10-15 secs then unplug the usb cable.
Reinsert your battery, then turn on your device. It should boot up into the selected custom recovery. If it does not boot up into recovery then turn off your phone and turn it on again while you are pressing and holding volume_down and power button.
Enable usb mass storage in the cwm recovery then plug the usb cable back. Format the internal SDcard to FAT32 then copy the zip file of the selected rom you want to flash (like miui or cm)
Flash your prefered rom
Restart phone.
Done

I dont really know what drivers did installed succesfully, but you don't need battery to use smartflash or nvlfash. If you want to use smartflash without battery then first flash the .fls file and for the second attempt flash the .bin file.

HELP! I bricked my G2!

Hello, I am a NOOB, and...
I recently rooted my lg g2, vs9803aa, using the one click root, but haven't actually flashed any roms on it. I put autorec on to flash twrp, and also had titanium backup on there i was looking at to try to back it up. I restarted the phone and it is just blank screen now. I try the hard reset and it just buzzes in my hand once and no logo appears on the screen. When i plug it into the computer it generates a bunch of local drives that need formatting, and on device manager it shows as QHSUSB_BULK. I read in other threads that it matters what rom you are using for the possible fix, but i never got as far as flashing one, or recieved an OTA.
Thoughts please?! I really don't want to get a new phone, but at the very least for now I swapped the sim to an old phone, droid 4, for temporary use.
Thanks for any input.

Hi,
Have you tried download mode? If you dunno how to, here's how :
" press power button and select “power off”. Then, press the volume up button on your LG G2. While you are holding the volume up button, plug in your phone's USB cable. Keep pressing the Volume up button until the download mode is being displayed."
After you are in download mode, follow this guide to go to stock : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
This should resolve your issue.

Let me make it clear. Turn off your phone. Plug your USB on your phone and press & hold volume up button and connect the other and of the usb to your pc.

I figured it out, as long as you don't mind wiping the device.
I used the SRK tool 2.1 to unbrick it. Link to post
After this I could get the LG splash screen again and enter download mode.
Then I used the LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash stock firmware back onto it. I actually downgraded to kitkat with the flash tool since it easier to root that way. Link to post

It was there when i extracted the folder, maybe you need to re-download zip or get it from a different source. I dunno, mind you I am still a huge noob with about a weeks worth of experience trolling the how to/fix guides and no programming skills whatsoever.
