[Q] Problem with ROM. Help please! - LG Optimus 2x

Hey.
Got a rooted LG optimistic 2x (p990).
Until recently, I were using the MIUI Tom, and it worked fine
But then I tried out CyanogenMod 7, and now I really need the help of a pro!
When I go on android market. It exits right away, the Tom manager is old, so it wont let me download Tom's without updating. But since I don't have android market I can't download a newer version. Installing from SD card doesn't work.
But that's the easy part. My backup ROM is gone for some reason!
And I cant install other ROMs. It. Just gives me a white triangle with an exclamation mark.
The boot menu wont appear either! (Volume down + power). It just boots normally.
I'm in deep **** here! I want MIUI back. PLEASE HELP!

So it seems you have lg pesimistic 2X. the best for you would be nvflash stock rom, root it install rom manager flash clockwork recovery and then miui rom.

Can you explain in details please?
(I can't install ROMs, remember?) what is 'nvflash'?

Nvflash uses direct access to hynix flash chip used in p990. It will total restore your phone. Homero made nvflash rom here so thank him if it will help you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1715272

Flashlite working on GT540

First of all you have to got to have clockwork recovery installed ! Also I will recommend to enable JIT on 2.1 you can find instructions here here Thanks to Quartx from 4pda.ru
Download THIS filles to the root of your SD card
Next you must install flashupdate_signed.zip try recovery. You can find the file HERE
After that install FlashPlugin.apk and reboot your device.
I haven't tested it fully but it certainly show all flash contents from the web pages and also can play some videos from the pages ( Remember this is only flash lite )
And most important I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR BRICKING YOUR DEVICE
This has been tested on my device and its working fine.
Really working!!!
does this erase my system?
One step is 'put it in the root of your sd card', I don't have a folder named 'root'. Do I have to create a folder?

What version of android are you using?? If you are using 2.2 version it doesn't work. Else you can try factory reset and install flashupdate_signed.zip and FlashPlugin.apk again.
Im using Rom for Poland with fastboot 2.1
i did a factory reset, installed flashupdate_signed.zip and FlashPlugin.apk again and still not working;\
Does anybody know if these flash lite files will work with the newest cm 2.2.1 v 4.3

4pda say "full flash wont work only flashlite"
but i guess you will need to install plugin
Will these operations work for a device with the same processor? myTouch Slide to be precise. We have flash lite working only on Sense ROMs, so I wonder how woult it work without HTC frameworks.
Its Good that your curious but the flash on the sense roms is way better than this. Pull HTC resources from sense and pull the plugin from sense rom?

I'm not using a Sense ROM, that's why I am curious about getting flash lite. I'm on CM7.
I know just saying if u pull from sense and push to cm7
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
I'm a bit noob to do that, just not sure what files need to be pulled. But I really want flash lite on CM7, so I'll do some research.
Am assuming that the update.zip adds the required framework.
What is flashlite?!

Flash lite is a slimmed down version of the flash player that only plays some content and works on arm v6 processors

Problem with updating rooted phone

I have been using cm7 nightlies and miui for a while, but decided to get back on stock because of instabilties. So I restored a backup of stock from before I changed ROM using cwm.
Today I tried to install the newest update using the update function on the phone. It downloaded the file, but it says file corrupt...
What could be causing this?

Try to use the LG update tool on pc. This download the full Rom and install it on the phone. I think is ~400 MB.

I have now done this. Had to try 4-5 times...
Also, the Mobile support tool makes my computer VERY laggy. This sucks, LG!
To use LG update tool you need to erase CWM and restore original LG recovery. Search a bit here or on Modaco's site I've seen somewhere a zip file to do it from CWM.

Is there a ClockworkMod for Thrill 4G & NOT LGE Optimus V?

I think I found my issue, I have lately been trying to 'Flash Current ROM'.
It had seemed that my Thrill 4G didn't save a backup in the ClockworkMod folder.
I had done some research and found out this might be my problem for not paying attention.
So is there a way I can flash ClockworkMod for Thrill 4G without having to use an LGE Optimus V version?
Did you look in the development section? There's a huge thread on clockworkmod recovery and flashing.
You can't use the Clockworkmod app.

There is currently no cwm for the Thrill. We only have a partially ported version. Which works well enough on its own for flashing directly from recovery. It still has a lot of quirks but its enough for the basics.

Cool. Could I maybe get this? Or could you assist me?
I tried the Clockwork Mod thing in Android Development LG Thrill.
I'm an older adb user and am familiar with it. But that was WAY difficult.
Could you give me a link or an easy way to use CWM for Thrill?

Couldn't I just flash a ROM from ROM Manager without the backup? I watched a buddy do it.

I have no clue how to work ADB. The last time I used it was when HTC Hero came out.
I'd appreciate so much and could try and assist you in any way.

You need cwm to use rom manager. They're a pair. If you pm me your msn I can help you get cwm installed.
Once you have cwm Power off the phone. Then hold these three buttons simultaneously: VOLUME DOWN+3D+POWER. As soon as the phone starts to power on release the POWER button only. Hold the volume down+3D buttons until cwm boots up. From there backing up/restoring and flashing zips is fairly straight forward. Most rom threads have cwm instructions for flashing.

If you updated to ics through flashing....then you might be in the unlocked new boot loader...cm ROM is for the old boot loader....
It might be possible that you have messed up the partitions.....you need to use the all in one tool kit and re start after nvflashing
Hope this helps

Usually, it is misbehaving app, all sorts of ongoing syncs or old battery. Turn off syncing of apps & automatic backups, remove stock browser, and identify misbehaving app with Better Battery Stats app from Google play. Ideally, your phone is in deep sleep close to 100% when screen is off.

[Q] p970 and p970h the same phone/rom/root and etc.?

i have a P970H V10d and i have no clue how to root and change his rom, what i did found is this method:
Method 2 - Froyo (V1XX)
Required : installed USB drivers
Enable USB Debugging (settings > apps > development)
Plug the phone, launch BlackJack and follow instructions
Allow 127.0.0.1 connection if prompted by AVs / Firewalls. Read BlackJack's intro for more details.

and it's worked(i downloaded "Root Checker" from the play store and it now says "Congratulations! this device has root access")
but what i do now? how i install a new rom? (4.1+ i prefer, or anything that 4+ that not freeze the phone, because the current 2.2.2 is freeze like hell) and what rom does works for me? it matters if the rom is for P970 or P970h?
Now you just need a custom recovery and you can start flashing Roms. P970-P970h all the same jazz.

ok i runned CWMT6 from UPK and now from ADB i entered to recovery and i choose a rom(cm10.0 is stable so i will use him for now) and installed lighty gapps
and something else, is it better to update to a rom that is based on v20 then v10? or even v30? because the baseband is still v10d on my phone, and all the roms that i see here is based on at least v20(zeus) so i can install their rom even that my phone is still v10d?
Yeah you can still use later Roms. Its just your baseband will be outdated. You can quickly flash a new baseband with smartflash though.
