Hello!
I have a problem, first I loaded the CM7 rom it didn't work for me (after I block it there was no way to unblock it) so I went and restore my old rom (or at least I Tried to) and that's when it all went to hell, I boot the phone and it only show me the LG screen and nothing else, (I know now it has something to do with the sd card) but the way I try to was restoring via NVFLASH. something went wrong (again) and now the phone boots into a black screen -I know it boots for the sounds and it vibrates, and if I remember I can even blindly use it.- I can't really use the phone. the screen is all black in all time. I can't even see the LG logo. but my pc recognise it as usual I can read the sd card and all like there was nothing wrong with the phone.
ps: I try to use the KDZ with a stock rom and stills the same. it boots like I described before, I know the screen works, at least it was working just fine last night.
PPS: I used the HDMI and I saw my phone working properly, I think I have a HW problem but I'm not sure. does anyone else had this problem?
my phone is a P990 made in Korea, but still a P990. I got confused.

the problem is that I can't see anything, it doesn't show me not even the LG logo, but I know it boots because of the sounds and the lights, I just can't see what it does.

Hi.
I rooted my LG Optimus 2X with Super on click root. It worked great after right after. I uinstalled CarHome and F-Secure, and after that my phone restared.
Now, It would not start. I only boot until the LG logo, and after that it reboot. So it go on and on and on. I can get the phone into ADB, and I'm a newbie on android, so I got no clue what to do. I aslo tried to use the recover program by LG, but I get a message that tells me that my phone does not support the update.
Is there anything that can sovle my problem or do I need to take it to the place I bought my phone?
I had the exact same problem (a hole thread in here). Your phone is bricked (as of now there's no solution as far as I know). When you rooted your phone you lost the warranty, so if unlucky you cannot return it without having to pay to get it fixed... If lucky the might just switch the phone with a new one...
I've sent mine back to the seller and hopefully I'll get a new one...
This thread could be useful for you:
http://android.modaco.com/content/lg-optimus-2x-2x-modaco-com/334664/bricked-lg-optimus-2x/
There's actually new development in the right direction. Paul from modaco (2x.modaco.com) are preparing af NVflash of the 2x, which will completely reflash the memory with the standard rom from stock meaning we should be able to fix the easily...
Should be ready on wednesday...
I've been looking into these two treads, but could not found anything that my fix the problem.
Well, I've got to go to my the seller and hopefully they will fix it fast.
Try to remove the SD card and then try to switch on once more...
I've been trying with and without SD card , Sim card, Battery many times. So I thats not the problem I think
thats why you should freeze apps instead of uninstalling them.
Did you try to hard reset the phone?
If you got an adb connection and root, try to obtain the apk's (search the forum) and push them to system/apps.
Thats all I can think of for now. I'm no expert on this
Did you make a system backup using Clockwork Recovery before you rooted? If so, boot back into recovery and restore the backup. I bricked my phone the first time I installed a different ROM but luckily I had a backup that I was able to restore and try again.

The Optimus 2X does not (yet) have Clockworkmod Recovery working. At least not in a way available to the public (MoDaCo's Paul said he would release some stuff next week)
I can't get it to hard reset. When I boot up the phone I hold in the power button and the - volum butten. Then I come to a screen with the droid, I press the home button and I get Android recovery system (3e), but I'm unable to choose anything. I only can switch between the 4 chooses, by pressing +/- volum button.
Nope, can't get it to connect to adb. Tried, but I couldn't manage it.
Well then maybe someone here can point you to actually selecting something from that list. I mean, it has to be possible to "choose" one of the 4 options but I've never owned an android until (hopefully) in 3 weeks so I can't tell you how it works exactly.
Edit: Just checked the manual again, did you make sure you pressed home and vol- for 10 seconds ?
Well, yes. I pressed home and - volum until I got a recover mode or something.
But as I know theres know way to fix this problem atm. I'll have to send it back to my reseller or wait for Paul to release the fix.
Today when i use smartflash to flah a stock firmware to my lg optimus 2x everything went fine until the phones boots when it comes to the homescreen where u must setup your phone the problem is that the screen is not responding cant do anything
plz hlp me
Have you pull the battery and start again?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
Yes and i have put all the eur stock firmware and its all the same my touch screen is no more touch
to be honest at least you are back to STOCK rom so you could send it back to the shop for warranty, if they ask what happen tell them you did a HARD RESET and nothing worked after that
Do the buttons work? power and the search etc???
did you try and flash the baseband and firmware at the same time?
Only the power and volume buttons work when the phone is on
Dont you think my digitizer is dead or anyting with the hardware?
i had this before... a reflash did the job. i actually thought my phone screen was dead. however im wasnt flashing official ones, i was on custom rom and i flash another custom rom and it worked. therefore your phone is probably fine if theres no problem before you flashed.
Can u explain me how u did flash a custom rom because i tried all stock rom from the list but no result!
tried all stock roms? opps, i guess theres always an exception. :x
what happened for me:
my phone was rooted (with cwm) and one day it wouldnt respond and i thought the screen was dead no matter how many times i rebooted. so i went home, dled another custom rom, flashed and it became alive.
Hi.
I recently purchased a used Optimus 2x with a cracked screen.
The first thing I did, was to start it up with my sim card, to see if the phone was operator locked.
When I turned the phone on, it started up just fine and I entered my pin number just fine, but after that I didn't get any network on the phone.
There were only greyed out bars on top of the screen, with a red " x " next to it and next to that, there was a picture of a sim card with a red " ! " mark on it and also on the "drag down menu" there was a message saying "No network".
I tried reseting the phone to factory settings but that didn't help.
I think the phone is originally from another country, because after I started the phone after reseting it, the language was changed to spanish.
If anyone could help me figure out what the problem with this phone is, I would really apreciate it.
No network is odd, try flashing a different baseband, then root it, install rom manager and start fresh with a new operating system.

Thanks for the reply.
Is there a tutorial on how to flash a different baseband? Is there a certain baseband version I should get, or can I just install any baseband version?

Thanks shpapy.
I managed to flash a new stock rom, but unfortunately the "No network" problem still persists.
However. When I looked at the back of the phone, I saw that the water indicator had turned red, so I assume that it has been water damaged.
Could this be causing the No network problem?
Or could the phone possibly be barred?

if you paid by credit card get a refund through them, or if ebay dispute the purchase and send PayPal images of the water sensor. Its screwed if it got wet.

Is there some way of fixing it?
I've got a rework station and could possibly replace the broken component if I knew which one to replace.
I've reballed a few xboxes before and normally I just work on gaming consoles.
But I bought this phone to give to my brother for christmas. The guy in the advertisement only said that the screen on the phone was cracked, but otherwise worked ok, so I figured it was an easy fix.
But now the f****r won't answer the phone anymore, so I guess he's long gone.
I paid in cash, so theres no chance for a refund.
I'll dissassemble the phone tomorrow and rinse the pcb with isopropyl, but this isn't really necessary as the component that is causing the issue is broken anyway right? But still, I guess it wouldn't hurt to give it a little rinse.
Just flash a new baseband+ ril i recommend starting with .218 bb+ ril and work up from there. Also use CM7 as a rom. I had the same problem your describing when i flashed the wrong baseband on mine. And if all else fails nvflash usually works in the end.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
Well I think I bricked the phone.
I flashed the 0405 baseband and 0405 ril and after that, the phone didn't even ask for a pin number anymore and also the Imei number was deleted in the proccess
Guess I should have read more about how to flash the phone properly before I started flashing.
Ah well. S**t happends, lol.
By the way if there is a way to fix this phone, I would gladly pay someone to fix it for me.
Just send me a pm if it's fixable and we'll work something out.
You ticked 'erase cp' didn't you?
Luckily you can write your IMEI back though.
Heh, use nvflash, then flash new baseband. I use .725 myself after flashing baseband > root> install cwm> flash rom.
@rusty i did that wrong once

Hehe. To be honest, I'm not even sure I flashed the ril file the correct way.
I placed the RIL zip file on the internal sd card and booted the phone into bootloader "the thing that was installed after I rooted it with nvflash", and installed the ril file from there.
I chose install zip from internal sd and chose the ril file and after that, no more Imei, lol.
But, like I said earlier, I'll gladly pay someone if they could have this phone fixed for me.
I really wanted to give this phone to my brother and it'ss really a shame it won't work, because I've already ordered a new replacement screen and everything.
My brother's really into android phones and I know he's been drooling about this phone and the samsung galaxy s2, so I really wanted to suprise him with this phone.
If anyone believe that they could fix this phone and get it up and working, please send just send me a pm.
Nvflash = flashing rom from low lvl, last resort, so no basebands etc.
There is tons of documentation on this, read it. It will actually make it simple to do and understand its in the development section: nvflash, smartflash(bb), getril, roms.. etc
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
Yes! I managed to fix it.
I flashed a stock rom back to the phone, using Smartflash and that fixed it.
When I turned the phone on, the Imei was back and I could make and receive phone calls.
The Rom file I used to flash the phone with was: BIN_LGP990AT-00-V10b-NEU-XXX-APR-05-2011+0
Thanks to everyone that halped
However, now I've got a different problem. I disassembled the phone and while disassemling it, I managed to snap the "antenna/ coax" cable that runs between the main Pcb down to where the microphone is located.
I tried searchin on ebay for a replacement cable, but couldn't find anything. Maybe I didn't search for the correct part.
Does anyone have one of these cables that they'd be willing to sell, or does anyone know where I might buy one?
Hey Guys,
I was installing a weather widget for my O2X and he could'nt find my location.
So i tought I'll reboot my O2.
When i rebooted my phone, the touchscreen wasn't working anymore.
But before I reboot my phone it did.
So now when I turn on my device it boots, and I can see everthing : Statusbar, Lockscreen etc.
But when I try to unlock it it's not responding to my touch.
So i did a full wipe and installed the ROM again but, it wasnt working again.
So then I downloaded CM10.1 for my phone and flashed it but still not working.
Anyone got and idea?
Greetings, Hammief
Exactly what happened to me
Same thing has happened to me
I have the Wind Optimus 2x. So it will be different then what other have experienced.
Basicly I had the latest CM7 installed and I wanted to upgrade to ICS so I used the tool to repartition the device. I got ICS installed fine but the screen doesn't work anymore. I flashed back to stock with nvflash perfect and but screen doesn't work at all.
If anyone can look into these touchscreen problems or has any experience it would be appreciated.
it seems that is not problem in hardware, the problem is in software...
please try to do full wipe in recovery than try, maybe is virus, or something else

Hello Community,
I'm new here and hope you can help me even if it is only a little bit
So I have a Samsung Galaxy S I9000 with stock rom 2.3.6, root rights and cwm flashed.
Before I did this I had some problems with my phone, e.g. if I hit (gently) the back side the phone turns off =/
My new at the moment real problem is that I cannot turn my phone on if I only use the battery. (onlly the Samsung logo appears for a short time)
I can only boot it if the phone is pluged into my computer. When it runs and the display turns off, the phone will go off also. (not instantly but atfter 2-5 minutes)
Does anyone knows something about such a problem?
Thanks for your help.

I can exclude the battery. I have tested two of them and I can be sure that both are well because they work in another Galaxy S I9000 without problem.
To flash a custom rom with plugged phone into computer will be tested tomorrow.

Good luck:good:But I would suggest to flash stock gb rom first just to make sure its not a software problem.
I remember @xsenman has mentioned a solution for this problem about two months ago..... I am sure he will write you soon here.
I had the same problem with my phone, it would reboot if i tapped the back of it, i found out it was a dodgy app i installed so i uninstalled a couple of apps i recently installed and it solve the problem.
So know I have tryed to flash with connected phone. I do not know whether it works because the phone won't boot the system, only recovery and bootloader.
In cause of this I have reflashed with Odin again. Now I get at reboot this screen:

sry but i cannot post direct links =/
I understand what there is written but I don't know why, the only sdcard is my internal there is no external connected.
So there is a new problem and I would be glad about new ideas =\
(I tryed: reboot, wipes and reboot, wipes and new flashing (same problem))
@tetakpatak if my system boots again I would search for his post thank you
