Now just had a little problem. I updated to Darky's 8.1 no wipe version. It updated fine but the first time it booted, it froze. Now it keeps doing a boot cycle over and over again. I see the i9000m screen but I do not get to the S logo screen or in this case the transformer screen because it reboots. Can you help me plz? Thanks.

try a re flash of another ROM preferably a stock ROM then start all over again, similar thing happened to me earlier, i am quite new to all this but i dont know if its the kernel or lagfix i had what caused this...
i re flashed back to froyo and then installed darkys ROM then re installed my kernel last.. all is good (for now)
worked for me first time but when i went to sgs tools to upgrade your apps ie gallery, camera, it said no busybox installed but went ahead and done fine in v8.0 and i see that cwm changed from red to green too went to market for busybox to download it but when it goes to install phone just reboots all the time mmmm...
Easiest way out of cycling boot:
pull battery
place it in
bring phone in download mode (not recovery!)
prepare Odin with a stock ROM
connect the phone to your PC and give it a kick thru Odin
When done feel free to switch again to Darkys (8.0) with wipe (you will loose data) and afterwards upgrade to 8.1.

YES !!! i agree, it is a pain.. but we love our phones and we would do anything for them its always best to flash back to standard FW if you ever get a problem...
I myself experienced this. Whenever I installed a new software, it would just boot. I got fed up because darky's forums are also down and there is no discussion. flashed doc's rom. Now everything is fine.
...mh... but it's not caused by Darkys ROM. This cycling boot feature may appear at all ROM, at all lag fix actions and so on. It depends how proper you interact with phone- and ROM-features while configuring. A lil disturbance during your session (by you or battery issue or whatelse) or a not so well prepared basic from where you start and your unlimited-feature-wishlist-and-paint-it-golden-one-click-action is enough to interrupt the whole thing and run into trouble.
It was and is all the same - since DOS or C64. And it will be the same, even when iPhone is on level 12.x or Android will be able to beam you elsewhere thru the barcode scanner.
It's a game. Nothing more. And game means lot of fun - and in the beginning a certain thrill when your phone stuck first time and you are thinking: "... f*ck... bricked..."
yup same for me
cycle boot thing
didnt enable download mode before that....
can get into debug screen thou but wiping it doesnt help
anyone with a suggestion on what i can try? warrenty = off so im screwed otherwise

Thanks guys for all the replies. Now I did try flashing a stock rom but with no results. Was still having the same thing happening to me. If you guys can give me the link to the files you used to solve this problem, that would be great. Also just for your information I have a Bell i9000m unlocked running on fido. And NO its not an sd card failure lol.
As for DarelSteilz85, I did make one of those JIG usb for myself. It easy, just get the micro usb and strip it bare to the point you can see the pins on the usb which usually are connected to the wires and get a resister to connect one pin to another. Now for which pins, I remember it was 4 and 5 that you had to connect through the resistor but double check as I am not sure. Also the resistor has to be a certain level which I forgot so double check that also. Good luck.

What i use for problems .

Hello,
I just got my new Optimus 2x in.
After 2 days using it and draining a lot of battery life installing apps and getting the phone the way I liked it.
The LG apps installed on it started to annoy me bigtime.
So i did the most respectfull thing every tweaker does, i rooted the phone.
Installed the Titanium Backup software and started deleting LG apps.
The deleting part went perfect, then my screen turned black and the only thing working was the kill andriod app software on top.
So i pulled the battery and rebooted, nothing.... the phone got stuck at the LG logo.
Did a Hard reset Volume down + the power button.
It started the installation --> google login --> setting up extra account --> and then got the error about a wizard having problems.
So i guess my rom is corrupt.
Tried updating trough the LG software - emergency and got the message "not possible anymore".
Tried updating trough KDZ firmware update tool but it can not find the phone*.
*Downloaded the original firmware from a thread located here.
Does anybody know how to get in emergency mode so i can try different things.
Or maybe other options i could consider?
If not i'd might considering sending it in for warranty.
But it boots so there must be a way to get things working again.
Thx i appreciate getting all the help and ideas.
Im sorry to hear about your problem
Hope u can fix it
But may i ask how do u root it? I try z4root but no use...

I rooted it with superoneclick.
--small update--
If i skip the setup part after my google login, i can force stop the wizard error.
But it does not go into android itself, i get the top bar but thats it.
The LG software recocgnizes my phone but says it's OK and it does not need a update.
Wait for android 2.2.3?
That might do the trick, but then i might have to wait more than 2 weeks
1.Turn the power off. If your LG Optimus 2X is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
2.Hold the Home and Volume Down button
3.Press and hold the Power button until the device turns on
4.Follow the on-screen instructions to reset your device
That's the only option, on this time.
Tried this.
It says S/W Upgrade
Please wait
while upgrading...
and then nothing.
Try boot your phone to android then connect it to pc and run adb shell if shell working put all apk,s from rom dump here.
You have to copy all files to /system/app.
I'll give it a try tomorrow, have to get to work in like 3 hours =)
Im done for today.
Actually, if you get the notification bar, Android is working.
Sounds like you just deleted the Launcher, did you replace it?
If not, adb install and new launcher and you'll be good to go. Although you'll want one on your system partition too!
Have a look in the "Safe to remove" apps thread.
That's it, that's the one i accidently removed.
Any idea how to put it back on the phone?
As described above your post, trough ADB shell?
Can someone post LGLauncher in this thread?

Download here LGHome
Thanks i downloaded it.
But the thing is i can't run adb it gives me the error: device not loaded.
Tried installing the google usb drivers, gives me a no can do.
Another thing i figured out is this: Installing LG PC Suite IV.
It does give me the device connected, but i can not update.
* Can sync contacts
* Can sync Favourites
* Can sync Memo's
But no update (because it's not out yet)
Isn't there a way to fool the suite there is an update but in fact it's just the old firmware and replacing it (making it a repair).
This Thread is discussing the same problem as i am, btw
Fixed!
Obtained the LGLauncher.apk and emailed it to my google account!
Got it out of the above link i posted.

as i said in the other thread you should use root explorer to copu the launcher to /system/app
if you dont it will be gone again if you ever factory reset.
And next time dont delete stuff... just freez it from titanium... Frozen apps are gone (cant be started by the system or seen in launcher) but you get them all back if you factory reset (so no risk of bricking)
OK... we dont get the few megs of free space by freezing... but that is not really an issue on this phone.
Ok Guys, I started this thread because last weekend I had an interesting issue with my O2X. From one day to another, whenever I connected my phone to the computer it only charged, I had no USB connection. I’m not yet quite sure why it happened, the last thing I did to my phone was install CM10 nightly of 31 October 2012, and then I changed the default baseband I had (725) to the one GetRil was telling me to install (LGP990AT-00-V20l-EUR-XX-OCT-20-2011 0_CP) (this baseband didn’t fixed the strange noises of in call) two days after that I got the no USB bug, at first I thought it was software related, then after lots of reading and trying different cables and computers I thought it was hardware related, but then I saw an interesting chance of fixing it, and it did in my case
Credit goes to Kohos, I manage to have USB fixed temporary thanks to his post on modaco.com
I’M NOT TELLING THAT CM10 CAUSE THIS BUG, IT JUST HAPPENED TO ME WHILE USING THIS ROM
Specs
Phone: Optimus 2x (p990H made in south Korea)
Rom: CM10 Oct 31 2012 (when got the bug) now CM7 nightly 15 July 2012
Kernel: Symbiosis 2.6.32.59 v1.2
Carrier: Telcel
Country: México
Ril: 0725 (V10d, Europe)
BB: 1035.21_20110725
CWM: 5.0.2.0 (no touch version)
To solve this issue you need to have a stock ROM that can be flashed by CWM. Can be the rom, or a backup of the stock rom (If you don’t have one send me a PM), I didn’t tried stock-based ROM so those may or may not work; I’m not sure but rather use an original stock ROM. You also need to be able to enter CWM recovery, and have LGE drivers up to date.
For this method I used a stock nandroid backup.
I’ll describe step by step all I did to solve this issue so you can give it a shot:
1. If you have a flashable stock rom you may skip this step and go to step 3, if what you have is a nand backup you need to make your partitions back from EXT4 to EXT3 (this is the format that stock rom uses) so need to download the tool R2 found on the first post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021549
put it on your external SD card along with the backup of the stock rom
2. Reboot to enter CWM recovery and install the tool R2 (NOTE: this will erase all information of the internal memory)
3. Install or flash your stock rom or backup (In case you're using my backup, keep in mind, my file IS NOT a flashable rom, it is a backup, so trying to use the option "flash zip from external sd card" WON'T work, what you need to do is unzip the file and put it on sdcard/clockworkmod/bakcup, then on the recovery, you have to use the option "restore from external sd card", that way it should work, keep in mind that if you change the name of the file it will give md5 error for the name won't match the backup's md5)
4. Reboot and start the phone, once it is all loaded, on the phone app dial: 1809#*990# this will take you to the service (hidden) menu (If it doesn’t take you automatically to the service menu (without clicking dial) you’ll need another ROM or backup)
5. In this menu you’ll need to scroll to the option: Module Test > USB Mode Selection, in there make sure the option LG Android USB is selected
6. Then go back to the root of the hidden menu, and go to Port settings, there you’ll see several options, the ones we’re interested in are: AP USB, CP USB, AP UART, CP UART, the default should be AP USB, you can start playing with those options. (While doing this, you might want to play with your computer device manager scanning for hardware changes, that might help detecting the USB)
The recommendation is to select CP UART, wait, if your problem is not hardware related, it should popup a message of new unknown device, or LGE Platfrom Android USB device. If your USB show some life signal, then you’re almost done, if not, keep playing with the four options until you see some life signal.
What I did was select CP UART, click Ok, wait, AP UART, click OK, wait, CP USB, click OK, wait, AP USB, click OK, I waited here about 1 min, and then on the computer device manager I scanned for hardware changes, and suddenly my computer started installing all drivers again, this last option is the one that must keep selected even with reboot of the phone.
7. Once you get all done, reboot the phone and connect it to USB to see if it is recognized again, if not, repeat steps 4 to 6
8. Ok, If everything went fine, you should now have USB connection, now I would recommend you flash your Stock Rom, so everything that might cause this bug gets fixed (if you don’t do this, you might get the bug back eventually). To do so you might need to turn off your phone and plug it to your computer while clicking PWR and VOl- at the same time, if your computer doesn’t recognize your phone, use the device manager and scan for hardware changes, this should reinstall the driver needed to make this happen.
9. Finally I restored my last nandroid backup through cwm
I did this on Monday, and two days later I had no USB connection again, I repeated this steps and I had USB detection once more, today it happended again, and repeated the steps so I’m pretty sure this fix should work every time.
NOTE: This is a temporary fix, I've been trying to identify why the bug keeps comming back
Hope this help you all get over this serious bug :laugh:

This is my last froyo teclel stock backup

Disclaimer: Even though I'm sure it will work, try it at you own risk, I'm not responsable for any bad behavior or damage that could happen to your phone
UPDATE:
Ok, guys I told you I would make some test to make sure the bug won't come back or identify the problem, what I've found so far is that the problem might be caused by the wall charger (but might not the the only reason), If I'm not wrong, the LG stock charger has output of 5.2V - 650mA DC and I've been using a motorola charger (5.1V - 850mA DC output).
Four days ago I started charging my phone only with my computer (usb port has output of 5V - 500mA) and I've had no trouble at all, the bug hadn't come back, today I charged my phone with the wall charger and the bug immediately came back, so for now that's my theory, the wall charger, stock or not, might fail and deliver more current that the O2X need so it mess the phone, I'm going to make fix on my charger to prove my theory, (I have no money for a new charger xD, but I'm studying electronics) if it fix it, I'll let you know, but you can try and charge your O2X with your computer for a day or two to help me prove my theory or prove me wrong
UPDATE:
It's been some time since I last posted here, I've been busy with my finals, but have had some time to make some tests to my phone. On my last update I told you that I had a theory about the bug, well, so far I can tell you that the wall charger indeed have something to do with the bug, but its not the cause of it, I've been using my wall charger letting my phone connected all-night long and the bug seems to happen again, but letting my phone connected to the PC for a while allows the USB sync and debugging again, so I'm not sure why it happens, I'm about to finish my finals so I'll try to make some tests once I'm done, hope this giude help you
UPDATE:
Well, as I was testing my theory, I go back to zero, this is because, my phone, doesn't have the bug anymore, so I have no chance to keep testing solutions for it, the conclusion I got with this is that the wall charger doesn't create the bug, maybe it triggers it, but not always nor on every device because, I haven't sopped using the same wall charger and the bug haven't returned, the last thing I did was, use my computer to charge my phone for three days, always letting it charge to 100% (unless I have to move from the computer) and the bug didn't happened, then, on a rush I had to use the wall charger, the bug appeared instantly, and then keep charging it with the same charger, two days after that, the bug dissappeared, I made no rom change, nor baseband, nor ril, nor anything, just like that it disappeared, so, I have no way to keep testing, if it ever comes back, I'll make some tests again, but for now, I have nothing to work with, hope this thread help you to get over this bug, at least, for a while, I'll be reading this thread in case you have some trouble with the instructions or so, cheers
UPDATE:
Ok, so I deleted long ago the last backup you told me was not working, and since I went to CM10 from Pengus I haven't had the no USB bug, so, one person asked me for the backup, I just made a new one, (this one is 204 MB on zip, read step 3) and uploaded it to 4Shared and Dropbox, so, remember to read and follow the instructions as they are, hope this time you can restore this backup, and one more thing, this backup was made just after installing it on the phone, so it doesn't have even a gmail account, you have to put yours and update market if you need something from there, ps. dont mind the date of the name of the file, it is innacurate, cheers

when dialing the above mentioned 1809#*990# in the Port menu, switching from default AP USB to AP/CP UART gave me life signs.
After switching to AP UART I linked the Unknown device driver to lgusbdiag.inf located in C:/ProgramFiles(x86)/LG United Mobile Driver.
Suddenly it started installing it and is now recognized as: LGE Platform Android USB Device.
Once disconnected I lose USB again, I'm able to recreate the first steps though even in default AP USB mode by now.

But that aside I hope you realize that this is not a solving fix at all. All it does is giving people who got a fresh device the chance to flash a custom recovery. That's all. It won't work with any CM ROM and even Stock based ROMs.
Unless you have an early Froyo version flashed you will also have no ADB and it won't be recognized during the NVFlash process rendering it pretty much useless.
Having seen dozens of people having this particular problem where all the super obvious stuff like other cables, other pcs, other drivers etc. did not work, sending it to repair was the only fix I heard of solving this problem to date.
Of course I'm very curious on how you are going to identify the problem. Good luck.

I'm extremely sorry, there's one think I missed, give you credit (fixing that right away), I actually found your post on modaco.com, and tried to access to the hidden menu from CM7 with no success, fortunately, I do have an early froyo backup that can be flashed through CWM, the only thing is that is the Telcel stock rom (I don't know if this can work with other O2X devices, I think there should not be problem at all)
About ADB, it work in full with the latest drivers installed and scanning for hardware changes on the computer device manager, It even work entering the S/W update service on the phone (to install a stock rom)
I know that many people have had this issue, I spent a lot of time reading forums and stuff about it, the only post that actually helped me, was yours, so, credit is yours, I did this post to show people what I excactly did (that's why is a lot to read, but I wanted to make it as easy as possible to follow up)
To identify the problem is a long and slow task, so, I'll be making some tests and let you know what I found, right now I have no much time, 'cuz I'm about to start my final exams, so I'll be busy, but as soon as I finish I'll be more dedicated to it, I'll be making hardware and software tests but can't promise anything yet

It all depends on what you install, if you manage to install stock rom through CWM or another recovery, yes you will loose root, but will have usb connection so you can root again, later today I'll upload my own froyo stock backup (it's mexican stock for telcel carrier, i think it should work out of méxico, maybe could cause network trouble on other countries, but its just a posibility, the important thing is that you be able to access the hidden menu), this backup I'll upload can be installed through cwm and its already rooted, so its like installing any custom rom, you'll keep your recovery and root
Remember, this is a temporary fix yet 'cuz I still get the bug comming back, maybe its because I am restoring my last working cwm backup, the only thing I haven't tried is clean all, install stock, root, install custom rom, and download again everything, maybe the bug is caused by something on that last cwm backup
I'll let you know as soon as I upload my bakcup
cheers
Well thank you! How i have this issue from one year i learned to live with her, but i could not live without root. So if i will instal a stock rom without root i will be unable to correct the usb connection i will get stuck with stock rom and no root. Will be the end of my phone. In am interesed to gain the usb connection for change the bb, i supose i can be something wrong with my bb 1035.21_20110725 and gingerbread. You can check to change the bb to see if you get again losing usb connection. Cheers and thank you 4 all.
got this after CM10 install
I've only had my phone for 1 day from new and already got this problem.
Rooted with superoneclick
Installed CWM v5.x
Installed CM10 Nightly Nov 13th
Now no USB mode, only charging.
baseband: v10e
RIL: CM10 1106
EDIT UPDATE: Well its working for me again now, I think in my case it was because I was using Linux and CM10.
By going to Settings/Storage then pressing menu button and selecting 'USB computer connection' I was able to change the 'Connect as' option from MTP to Mass storage and it now works.

Actually yes, I've managed to identify what's triggering the bug at least in my phone, so might be the same for others as well, see the second post
BTW, did you tried already the fix? did you used my stock froyo backup?, if it didn't work, I can make another and upload it
Hi. Looks like I have the same problem with USB as you. Your theory about the wall charger might be correct. Here's my situation:
So, I've got my phone two days ago, bought used, came with a general Sony Ericsson USB charger. It says it outs 850mA at 5.0V (confirmed with a multimeter). The phone is on stock Android 2.2.2, isn't rooted yet. The guy from who I got the phone says that he suffered too with this kind of problem, however he got it working after 2 weeks without the use of the hidden menu. This means, that in those 2 weeks, he might have used a PC or a laptop to charge the phone. I tried the hidden menu port settings, however the only "working" mode is AP UART, but it is not recognizable by the PC, even if I try to link the LG drivers manually. Cycling through the modes did not help. I'll try to charge the phone with my PC, and see if that dose anything.
Details of the phone:
Firmware version: 2.2.2
Baseband: 1035.21_20110218
Kernel: 2.6.32.9-dirty
Build: FRG83G
LGE Version: LGEP990-V10b
Wow. All i can say is wow! Gosh! Just dunno how grateful I am stumbling upon this thread! Kudos to you sir,you just ended my 2 month long frustration about my phone not being able to communicate to my PC. was getting ready to send the phone for service then I read this. I had flashed every GB ROM imaginable from the dev thread with no luck. I am running carburano DM 1.7 now,all I did was to go to the hidden menu,switched one port setting,wait,then voila! PC recognized my phone! Again thanks,great respect to you,and Superskill.
Hi, this is my post to thebgeneral board by accident, didnt even read there was a qanda section lol
It didn't work on my gfs phone unfortunately, notvsure what was wrong.
Maybe I should try stock Rom instead of modded, how long are you guys waiting for the phone to show up?
I downloaded a stock Rom that had been modded.
So I could be sure that I would have cwm in case anything went wrong.
Rom loaded and was able to get into the secret menu.
I will say that under USB connection type there was misspelling where it said:
LG USB adnroid
Not sure if that would affect it.
I selected that item.
Then went to port.
Selected the different options in ordered and waited about 10 seconds on each turn, then pressed find any changes in device manager unplugged and plugged the USB.
Then tried in different orders but with not luck.
Took the battery out and tried holing the vol up down the plugging in USB but to no avail.
Then pressed power and vol down.
The phone tuned on and showed LG sign then switched off.
I tried pressing check any changes as the LG sign came on but nothing.
Then tried nvflash as the LG sign came on but nvflash showed no connection.
Very weird, definitely dead but still charges, doesn't make sense.
Oh well
Ordered an atrix with work and play kit for 68 quid, has a broken digitizer which will cost 20 pound, on average, off ebay.
Thanks for the help though.
May take the 2x apart when new phone comes and see if there's any physical damage on te board.

I think this might be a hardware issue with me as the phone sometimes says it's charging, but it's actually in my hands with no cable attached. I managed to root the stock 2.2.2 firmware with GingerBreak and installed CM7 with RomManager with a downloaded ZIP on the SD card. Thanks for the tips anyways.

Hello, I'm sorry it took me a while to answer, I've been busy with my finals, did you tired the tutorial I posted? the hidden menu modification? I know that you let your phone charging for a while with your pc, actually, it should've worked but, maybe the problem on your phone actually is something else, 'cuz I haven't had that issue that the phone says it is charging but its not connected to the charger, my brother told me that he have had that same issue but with other phone, he changed the wall charger and that "fixed" it, but I think if you haven't tried the tutorial, give it a shot, try changing to CP UART if your phone's usb is working as it should, your computer should detect a new unknown device, if not, myabe your phone is hardware damaged, hope you can fix your phone soon
cheers

Hi, this is my post to thebgeneral board by accident, didnt even read there was a qanda section lol
It didn't work on my gfs phone unfortunately, notvsure what was wrong.
Maybe I should try stock Rom instead of modded, how long are you guys waiting for the phone to show up?
I downloaded a stock Rom that had been modded.
So I could be sure that I would have cwm in case anything went wrong.
Rom loaded and was able to get into the secret menu.
I will say that under USB connection type there was misspelling where it said:
LG USB adnroid
Not sure if that would affect it.
I selected that item.
Then went to port.
Selected the different options in ordered and waited about 10 seconds on each turn, then pressed find any changes in device manager unplugged and plugged the USB.
Then tried in different orders but with not luck.
Took the battery out and tried holing the vol up down the plugging in USB but to no avail.
Then pressed power and vol down.
The phone tuned on and showed LG sign then switched off.
I tried pressing check any changes as the LG sign came on but nothing.
Then tried nvflash as the LG sign came on but nvflash showed no connection.
Very weird, definitely dead but still charges, doesn't make sense.
Oh well
Ordered an atrix with work and play kit for 68 quid, has a broken digitizer which will cost 20 pound, on average, off ebay.
Thanks for the help though.
May take the 2x apart when new phone comes and see if there's any physical damage on te board.

What I did on my phone is exactly what I posted, if your computer haven't detected your phone on CP UART I doubt rebooting will make a change, anyways the most important thing to see if your usb is damaged or not is to try on the hidden menu the option CP UART it almost instantly detect the device, but, not everytime, I once waited there 20 min, so, give it a shot if you want, the stock rom I posted (on second post) is Mexico's Telcel stock rom, rooted, it doesn't delete your cwm recovery nor root, you can give it a try if you want, but read the instructions 'cuz you have to restore the ext3 format of your phone's partition to make it work (it stays on boot loop if you don't restore ext3 format), if the backup doesn't work, let me know to upload a new backup, hope you can fix it
cheers
