Bricked LG Optimus 2x after a nandroid backup - LG Optimus 2x

Hello guys!
Sorry for my english... I'm still learnig... So... After I did this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856090
Another recovery mode version has been installed (touch). after that I did a full wipe because i wouldnt any more dual boot and I installed wiui rom. I did titanium restore backup and other configs and everything was fine. Entered in rom manager and I choose backup rom. Backup was done sucesfully. after that my lg optimus 2x died it couldnt reboot and now it cant boot, the screen is black and blank.I've tried all stuffs I could read on internet but the only thing I could was install apx drivers but when I start "flash.bat" to restore stock rom, the last line in cmd show me "waiting for bootloader to initializer"
is my phone bricked forever??
If there is a solution I would be grateful!!!
Sorry for something that was no clear to you guys!

I've already did that but I'm stocked at "waiting for bootloader to initializer" with nvflash (2x-v10b-1300166062-nvflash) here: http://www.modaco.com/topic/335416-nvflash-setup-instructions-drivers-links-active/
and here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007825
With smartflash i can set .fls and .bin files but the application cant recognize LG O2X. I pull out battery, vol - / + pressed and I plugged to USB.
I've already tried this methods: smartflash, 2x-v10b-1300166062-nvflash (flash.bat), One-Click-G2x-recovery-flasher-04-28-12 (it was at O2X thread in another forum).
Thanks a lot. I have HOPE!!!!

Bricked
For those people who said the LG O2X DO NOT Bricked, Here is my thread! My LG does not turn on even the devil came here now!!! :fingers-crossed: I requested lg warranty today because no one of the methods in internet (nvflash, smartflash, one click recovery e etc etc etc) served for me. So... I cant stand LG anymore... Good bye LG!
Thanks guys for the help and the hope!!

I think u did not do it properly...i had mine in same condition and i was able to recover with smartflash.

Thx for reply! tell me how did u do it at steps? If LG doesnt repair my device I will try fix it by my self!
Thx a lot! In both methods any picture or word or something like upgrade s/w, show on screen of my O2X. I've tried these methods and nothing. My device was connected to the USB with nvflash all night and menssage "waiting for bootloader to initialize" persisted. Nothing happened.
Help me if u can!
I will be greatfull with you my friend.
I'm not a totaly noob! And I read as I can to learning more and more about android OS.
Again, Thanks!

I did what says here: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...-lg-optimus-2x-p990-back-to-stock-lg-software
I had problems on my pc because of drivers i think and smartflash didnt worked but i managed to do it on other pc.U should be able to do it if u follow the steps but if u get errors with smartflash try reinstalling drivers or with other pc.

The only signal I get is when I connect it to my PC. It says that either an "Unknown Device" is connected or I can connect it as an APX-device.
no matter what I try, I get no response from the display. And I tried to restore via nvflash etc.
I'm confused and dont know what to do now. I aprecciate any help!

please help me downgrade to v20a to v10a

I just recently upgraded my OB into v20a gingerbread chinese rom.. after upgrade my computer cant recognize my phone as an android device. Therefore i cant root it. But in recovery mode my computer can detect it so i tried flashing v10a directly but failed.
All lg drivers and pc suite are already installed. Im using windows vista 32bit. I ke
ep getting this message from my pc: found new hardware cdc serial. Found new hardware B project. When usb debugging is on.
Please help me.

Thank you.
You need this kit. Put tour phone in download mode by pressing volume up while inserting usb (phone off). Then flash with KDZ updater.
I already did that.. i tried flashing v10a.nothing happened. Kdz stop responding. Is it possible to downgrade directly to v10a from v20a?
Thanks.
Try here . Hope it works. There are more combinations, but it will work.
it wont for me, i did everything they did on that forum, downloaded everthing but the R&D test tool just wont work on my PC. i cant press anything. only the box saying merge 250-390 mb files.
i did turn windows enabler on and off.
Do you know where i can download the v10a ROM in fls and bin format? im going to use smartflash tool instead.

Are you going in S/W upgrade mode for NVFlash? Thats wrong. You have to to in APX mode for NVFlash. SW Upgrade mode is for SmartFlash, not applicable here.
Check my current signature to find how to go in APX mode and install APX drivers. Screen is blank(looks like switched off) when you go in APX mode.

and another mistery????
how come you can post in dev section with only 3 posts?
look at his date of join.It is hard to believe his no. of posts in that amount of time.
Confirmed working.
Side info: had problems with recovery driver , I needed to reinstall drivers and then when connected to pc I needed to run true all the usb connection options like , charging only , mass storage , tethering ,... this way it started to install all different drivers.
I received ICS update today when connecting to the LG update tool , it said a update was available and warned me to remove external SD while it was going to update to ICS.
Removed the external and started the update , (V30a android 4.0.4 was what I received) , Then I reconnected the phone and it installed PC sync for ICS and blablabla.....
I gotta say it is really smooth.
Anyone could say how long to wait until its save to stop the Nvflash?
Its now over 1-2 hour and seems not to happen anything anymore.
And i did that nvflashing often before. The driver is the same as last time.
No problems in device manager. Its an XP Laptop without any Antivirus or Firewall.
I had the latest rooted nvflash version on my LG P990 before that.
In the CMD window it tells only Nvflash started and the Display shows:
"S/W Upgrade Please wait while upgrading".
Never had that before and i am a bit nervous to kill it
But i think i read somewhere i can do it again also if i stoped it.
---edit---
Ok i stoped and redid it. Also made wipe with cwm.
But this flash isnt working for me.
I get:
"failed executing command 14 NvError 0x120000
command failure: partition download failed"
I tryed to give it an external SD, full wipe and cache wipe. Nothing.
Error stay BUT only with this flash offert here.
I had a backup flash of 20L and that could be flashed without any problem.
I had adroid 2.3.4
1035.21_20110725
kernel 2.6.32.5
===FINAL EDIT===
Going back to official 2.2.2 changed nothing! This "easy way didnt work for my P990
Solution:
Smartflash worked fine!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028946
Bin+FLS flash
Rooting
As mentioned Solution 1 here didnt work at all. Cant say why.
I tryed really a lot and spent to much time on that topic.
Wasnt as easy as before on 2.x.x...and none of the 3 Solutions worked for me!
But a combination works fine.
The Solution 3 didnt work for me.
"=3= (thanks to joiN85)" didnt work...got a boot loop ((
Solution 2 "=2= (thanks to RobYyY)" worked half...
but i had to use the "Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed-tradotto.zip"
on an external sd and not the SuperSU Root.zip.
Finally a hint that i is very important:
Dont forget to set the correct Date and Time or google will
Display a connection error.
Great work and sooooo fast... I wanne say thank you for everyone
who made it possible. Good work!

[Q] [HELP] Dricked,tool not helping

Hello
So my phone is completely dead. I manage to restore the lg logo and go in the CWM revovery(with Optimus Toolkit 6 in 1 v1.1.1) ,but when I try to mount mass storage my PC say that I need to Format my disk. I tryed and it didn't help. CWM recovery is by far I got,before that I used smartflash, nvlfash(10a) and Full Brick Repair (Clean & Easy)(TOOL).
This Full Brick Repair (Clean & Easy) helped me 2 days ago when my phone stuck in lg logo,but now i just stop and say bootloader(bad data).
So what should I do if nothing works for me? Is there any why or my phone is completely bricked?
I'm sorry for bad english or if I wrote something stupid. And yes I looked on forum,google,and other forums and coludn't find anything
I hope this thread won't be deleted
Thanks in advance for help

mate,
I am not sure if the tool kit you are mentioning about. But try to use this one which works perfectly for the O2X P990.maybe it is an issue of the CWM or bootloader if you dont have the correct ROM based on your bootloader.if you have a white LG logo then you are on the old bootloader....if you have the pink LG logo, then you are on the new boot loader.you have to choose the ROM according to the boot loader you have.the other one will not work.
ALL IN ONE TOOL KIT by Spyrosk the excellent developer
Hope this helps
Well with this tool I manage to Flash New Unlocked Bootloader with cwm recovery.
I managed to get in cwm,bet when i want the mass storage it PC say it the disk must be formated. So I tryed that couple of times and it didn't help.
So what should I do? Now I'm stuck in cwm recovery :S

did you install the nvflash driver?
GUYS!!!! read again, he is stuck IN cwm, he wants to connect to USB mass storage... now I assume he wants to copy a rom into the external SD card, but he can't do it (obviously) because PC can't recognize the phone (but he is a noob, he doesnt know that).
Now to continue your quest you CANT connect you phone to your windows PC until you install a rom, to install a rom you need to have a file compressed in .zip in your microSD card, you need to remove your microSD card from your phone and use an USB adapter and plug it to your PC and copy a rom to your microSD card and insert it to your phone and now in CMW flash the rom (flash means intalling) and you're done , if you can't do it then download a stock rom in KDZ or FLS format, to flash your rom, but I seriously suggest you do the first recommendation, flash the rom with nvflash.
If you get stuck again don't forget to ask, some will want to help and reply :good:

There is no other way...
Did you follow the tutorial? Did you remained calm and gave time for windows recognise your device?
Did you uninstall and re-install the drivers? You're able to reboot in SW mode (vol- pressed while connecting to PC)?
Here you have all files needed:

Delete your old files, download new ones and follow the tutorial.
Remember to remain calm and give time to system recognise and install everything needed.

TNQ...I fix my LG...and know work perfect I put 20A kdz. 4.1.2. and phone work perfect
Same problem here
I have the same problem. I think the stupid thing I did was to install V20a without rooting the phone. Now I cant root it. IS11LG_SystemBackupTest.signed.ap would not run and when I try to recover either with LGflashboot or LG firmware recovery I get the same error message "morning call is empty" (very strange error message). I can go back to v20a but since I am not completely happy with it I would like to resolve it. Is there any chance to fix it? I am not very confident to format bootload or installing custom ROM.
Thanks

You cannot root the phone on V20a using IS11LG_SystemBackupTest.signed.apk, since that file is used for versions V10x. Check out this link for rooting V20a: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2180688

Uninstall all drivers and folders like "LG United Mobile Driver" and "LG USB Modem Driver".
Re-install the drivers:
http://www.4shared.com/file/rPpP2btT/LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN3.html
http://www.4shared.com/file/ZSMf2x6n/LGUSBModemDriver_Eng_WHQL_Ver_.html
Take out the battery, press "Power Button" (just to discharge all phone components), put the battery back on the phone.
Press "Vol-" and connect to PC. Wait while windows detect the device and search in windows update for possible new drivers.
Windows won't find a thing but will take some time while trying...
After that you should be OK.
Just did similar to my phone and followed the advice in this thread - now sorted. Thanks guys you rock!
if u epic fail to manually force the drivers in just install android jdk open it and update it.
