My LG Optimus 2X from windmobile is stuck in boot screen. I recently rooted my phone which worked perfectly fine than I installed CWM ext which messed things up, phone was hard resetting every time it started up. So I went to the market place and installed CWM and installed recovery from within the app and decided to install [ROM] MIUI v4 2.7.20 [Multilang][New base] [25/07/2012] through the CWM app. It loads up in recovery FINALLY and I installed it. After reboot its just stuck on LG boot screen I cant go into recovery mode either it just reboots and gets stuck at boot screen. is there anything that i can do to recover the phone?

hey so NVFlash did work but now i am getting no signal, I went to settings> About phones > baseband: unknown. So I decided to use smart flash and flash the "LG_P990_1035_21_2011-06-22", it just wouldn't flash it loads up to 50% than i get timed out error. Is there anyway to fix this issue.
Thanks.

Dear All,
First i installed cwm recovery from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007863
, it was success but can't do nand backup, so i use rom manager and installed cwm recovery from there and success.
after that i choice boot into cwm recovery from rom manager, phone was restart but stuck in LG logo.
i tried to take out take in the batre and do normal boot on the result is same "stuck in lg logo"
i also tried to enter to cwm recovery by press power + vol down but still same stuck in lg logo
would you please help me ?
Are you holding your fingers on both power and vol down button for long enough? It can take up to 5-6 seconds to enter the CWM

Ohh no, Seems like I have the same problem
Ohh no.. Seems like I have the same problem.. The phone is stuck on the LG logo.
I installed the Cyanogen mod successfully, and everything seemed to work.
Then i started Rom manager to install Clockwork recovery. The clockwork mod was stuck the first time, don't know why!
So I restarted the phone, and tried installing the clockwork mod again, this time there were no problems.
After the clockwork mod was installed I wanted to install the Google addons, so I went to Download ROM, and pushed Google Addons. The phone asked for a restart, and during the restart I was stuck on LG logo.
I would be very very happy if anyone can help me?
Hi, i think you must use the nvflash reset-all-phone procedure.
Search google for "NVflash stock ROM release" and you'll find the procedure and the download links for APX drivers and zip with rom images and tools.
Good luck ! (I made the procedure 10 times in 3 days past bricking my phone..)

Thank you very much, I succeeded in doing a flash through nvflash, so now my phone works great again
Do you know if you can destroy the nvflash possibly? .. just so I know if I play with the phone as much as I want, and always get it working again with nvflash if something goes wrong

Hi
I'm helping out a friend, which O2X I have rooted and flashed WIUI on to (I previously owned one myself too)
For some reason the phone started to get hot after a while and used up the battery fast, until one day where he couldn't even turn it on again.
Now, he has been trying to fix it himself with NVflash, but no luck, so now its up to me and you guys.
I have used the smartflash tool and flashed the EURO OPEN stock ROM and everything went succesfull, but when the phone reboots, the LG logo appears, and it bootloops.
I tried both with battery and no battery in, but still no cigar.
Any suggestions what I should try next?
PS: If I try to turn on the phone normally, nothing happens. not even a blink from the screen, but I can get into S/W mode and APX
Try lg update tool, choose recover as option, then choose imei as entrance

EDIT: The software says the update is not compatible (dunno if translation is correct, but you get the point)
Update is aborted :/
No more suggestions on what to do?
Tried:
NVflash
Smartflash (Flashed EURO OPEN rom)
LG Update tool (recover function)
The phone still won't boot.
Smartflash is the only solution like you said that the phone can boot in s/w mode try to dig some answer in smartflash thread or search in google i know you can find some answer there

Assuming you have carried out the procedures correctly, looks like this device is actually defective. Probably not what you want to hear, I know, but...
Before giving up completely, you can NVFlash it again (using the original 10C NVFlash from Modaco) and post the log here. Wouldn't get my hopes up though.

Download this and use SmartFlashTool to flash this. It will unbrick your phone but beware you will lose all your data.

Download the mobile driver again, and follow the instructions correctly. Like, removing the battery, press volume down while plugging in until the s/w update screen appears, etc etc. Good luck! Hope it'll boot after the flash.

I've a similar-ish issue. I've got CWM installed and can boot into CWM ok. My problem was that I tried to install a ROM (MIUI) and the install had no errors, but when the phone was powered on it hung at the MIUI screen.
So I reverted to a backup successfully and decided to have another go (same problem). This time, after I restore to the backup (which is installed without error by CWM) I can't can't past the initial LG screen. Seems to go into reboot loop.
Any thoughts anyone? If I can get into CWM ok and have a working restore then is there something I'm doing wrong!!
thanks,
Mark

Maybe try to flash any rom with SmartFlash
1.Take out battery
2.replace battery
3.hold Vol- (volume down button) AND power button together until you see the recovery menu. then scroll to Cm updater file and reflash -or- clockwork mod file and flash from backup.
No way!!
When i tried Smartflash pc not found com ports. so i cant flash with this way.
also i tried (JAZZMAN's advice) power and vol- to enter CWM menu but i cant see any thing. (my phone not open)

How phone must show bootloader or you have installed already CWM it must boot into CWM, if it doesn't show your phone to the service .

I couldnt fix my phone. I sent to service. i hope they can fix
ok, so i was using tonyp-harsh v28e vlite ics version before deciding flashing stefan v28g via nvflash
i started nvflash as usual (removing battery + vol up and down), APX driver was recognized and the installation process went smoothly.
the problem is, after i flashed the rom, i found it a lil' bit laggy so i think it'd be better to try CM 10 to find out which one suit me better.
so i turn off my phone again, removing the battery, and pressing vol up & down simultaneously. but then, the phone doesn't respond (yes, it give a blink, but the LG logo doesn't appear and APX doesn't show up in my pc). so, now i'm stuck on v28g
i've tried searching with some queries :

and such
but it didn't give me an answer
i've also tried another version of nvflash such as this one by ProgMaq and another one by rmein, but nothing works
any suggestion?

I had the same problem as you face here.
I tried everything NV-flash, smartflash, you name it, no luck. Then I did a emergency repair in the LG updater.
Start the Updater, select "emergency repair", make sure drivers are installed.
Battery out, press Volume Down and connect.
Enter IMEI and S/N and repair program starts.
I had to do it twice, before it finished. I maybe had a bad USB connection or cable, but after "S/W update" showed up in screen on second attempt, I reinserted battery and it went very smooth.
Let it boot.
And then root with NV-flash and you are back in business with normal GB partition table.
I can recommend Tonyp's CWM 6.0.1.5 touch for NV-flash, when you have finished rooting.
It took me 45 minutes, with a not too good internet connection.
PS.: I did not try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1715272
but since I could not call up NV-flash, I did not want to spend even more time trying.
