Hello! New member here so please excuse me if I'm posting to the wrong forum or anything like that.
Not to take long of your time, I can't get my phone to boot. It shows the 2 LG logos and won't proceed beyond that. So I need to know if there's a way to flash a ROM and a Recovery with it like that.
Thanks for the help.

Can you access CWM? Try to pull out the battery, put it in, press power button + volume down at the same time. Wait til the LG logo appears and release it.

No. It just freezes at the LG logo.

I guess you need to flash the stock ROM by using SmartFlashTool. Its easy to use. There's a thread that has simple instructions.

As weird as this is, I suddenly can start into recovery. Is SmartFlashTool still the way to go? I ask because I don't want to ruin things any further.
Thanks again for the help.

Really?! That's great to know.
Recovery is v5.0.2.7
ETA: I flashed the ROM I had on before all that mess started and now my phone is working again. I'm not sure if things went awry because AOKP's last build was screwed or because I removed the SDcard before flashing in an attempt to force the phone to use the 5GB of internal memory that has been sitting useless since I got the device.
can't I flash the last owaine version I used?

It is.
I wiped every thing before flashing the ROM and I have a complete copy of all the files I had on the SDcard saved on my PC. As soon as it finishes charging I'll move the TB files back to the SDcard and see if I can restore my apps. Unfortunately, I have to redo my system settings by hand. But I don't really mind.
Thanks a lot for your help. I really appreciate it.

Today i've done a hard reset. After i try to open it up, it shows the M logo but then it just restarts. What should i do? (oh i can enter the recovery menu but wipe+cache doesn't have any effect)
If you want to wipe everything anyway, flash one of the current sbf via RSDLite.
any other sugestions? maybe to what caused that?
OR MAYBE A GUIDE?
bump bump
If you can access recovery, then flash the same ROM again, so that data isn't lost and the broken files will be maybe replaced..guides can be found in the milestone delevopment section
i haven't tried that. but to flash a custom rom didn't you have to root you're phone?
No, you won't need root. Just download an sbf-file and use RSDLite to flash it... This is really no big thing and it will immediately solve your problem. Don't know what you're still waiting for?!
maybe you can provide me a site to download some sbf's please?

Boot into recovery,connect your phone to computer,mound sdcard.Its under mounts and storage in cwm.Now your computer will show your sdcard.Copy your rom.zip and flash it with recovery as usual.
Why dont you justtry to flash a stock rom? Then, once its running you can root it and flash anything you want trough cwm...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
I am downloading stock rom now and as you said I will do . first boot in recovery and mount SD card, Copy Stock rom to SD Card. and then flash it.
at presently I am downloading the stock rom. it may take some time. will let you know what is the result. I am going to office now will update the post after 9 or 10 hours.
This becomes handy for others also.
Thanks for the advice.

This confused the sh1t outta me. Why is Samsung so damn complicated? So there are some ROMs you have to have a certain recovery to flash? My god, with HTC, once you have recovery, you flash whatever the hell you want. I got my mom a GNex for mothers day (even though I hate Samsung) and intended to root it and keep it up to date for her. But all this crazy talk about having to use certain modems (whatever the hell that is) with certain recoveries and certain ROMs, wow on a Dec device? So confused and disappointed. .
Jesus. With HTC, once you got recovery, you flash whatever radio, ROM, and kernel you want. None of the trick secret Sammy BS. Unbelievable since it's supposed to be a dev device.
Any help with Sammy always welcomed.

Maybe you should just stick with HTC. Going by your childish rant, Samsung is a bit deep for you.
Hi all,
Incidentally, I removed the application poweroff.apk with Titanium Backup, and I not did the backup. Now, my phone is not shutting down. When to put turn off, it just restarts.
I am with an enormous anguish. My question: I can turn it off by the battery, it will again turn on? I am with fear that the same reason that he is not shutting down, run the risk of it not connecting.
That is because I take the opportunity to change the firmware, and pass the v20q for the v20s. How to do it with Smartflash,I need disconnect the device to complete the procedure.
What do I turn it off again?
Can I change the firmware?
Please, I need help!
Thank you.
root explorer
Someone uses the RootExplorer?
I pulled out my battery like a hundred times. Nothing should happen.
You need to either reflash your ROM or install the update, both will give you the apk back.
Open terminal, write:
su
poweroff
It might work, let me know

Don't worry, nothing will happen.
And even if you hit the 0.00001% chance and are stuck - luckily we do have NVFlash and can unbrick every softbricked phone.
That's one big advantage of the LG 2x! You need to damage the hardware to brick the phone.

Thats strange, i have always thought that poweroff is an busybox applet (/system/xbin/poweroff), and should work even without poweroff.apk

I tried reboot, but the apk not returned. It only restarted normally.
There are an .apk and an .odex (poweroff) located in (System/app/)
I will try Reflash.
To Extract .kdz or .bin
Before performing the reflash, is there any way to extract the file .kdz or .bin from firmware I'm using in by Win7? With this, look for poweroff.apk, to extract, and put in my phone.
If it is noobish, then I apologise sincierly, but I have an idea.
Is it not possible to extract from other phone and upload it somewhere for you to put in your phone?
Like for example, would it help if say I (stock/root/ 2.3.4 O2X) get it for you and uploaded to some fileshare thingy?
(My understanding (being new to O2X but long running user of Androids (G1, Milestone 1, O2X) is that no matter what you do to your software, there is always flash, or nandroid bckup, or ROM install. So no worries. )

I have a Samsung device Galaxy SIII Mini (GT-I 8190)
Accidentally installed a version that was not his, and knocked on the recovery, and now my device does not get any updates, not through the OTA and automatic updates, simply the recovery screwed.
I tried to change version, and restore the original version and it did not help ..
By the way, every time a version I do, he gets stuck, and I must do him param then he recovers back. No param is stuck in the front window.
You know how you fix it please?
I dont think that any update was published.

Maybe flash an official firmware from the start and do a hard reset (after the flashing).
That should definitely install the official recovery again!
