Phone wan't start.

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.

[Q] Launcher

Hey guys
I managed to root my device with the first guide (oneclick) and uninstalled alot of LG crap, same time i uninstalled the LG launcer. - Today i got a problem with my device. I couldnt ring and hear people when i manged to get in contact.
I decided to factory reset the phone, but my problem is that i dont have any launcher now. When i do the hard reset thing (vol down + home and power on) i can get to the screen where i can type in pin code, but after that there is black screen cause there is no launcher. The search function dont work but the notification bar is working. so i cant get to the market and install. Mostly it just shows the LG logo when the phone is turned on and the touch screen is working cause it makes the click sound. But nothing else.
Does some one have an idea to how i can get a launcher installed ??
thanks in advance

Please use search function. This problem is already discussed here. You have to use ADB.

Hello my fren.. Did u in the 1st place had made backup or ur rom via nandroid before removing stuff from ur rom? If yes then its too bad.. But there is always an alternative..
1. Download a custom available here and place it in ur mmc card.
2. I presume that u have paulobrien 3.0.1.4 r1 - ClockworkMod Recovery for the LG Optimus 2X installed then flash it via clockwork.
3. Enjoy ur new fast phone!!

naah i did not backup.. thought i would never need it.. but i was wrong..
so here is what i did.
When the nortification bar was working i went into the musicplayer from there, in there i managed to get the search funtion in albums wich gave me the opportunity to search on the internet via the browser (wich i could not open or find cause no launcher ).
I went to 4shared from there and found a launcher but i could not install it because the installing from other source funtions was disabled. Fortunately it gave me the option so i could enable it and i did.. AND YEEEHA i manged to install a launcher and retsarted and it dos work !!!
Before when i pressed the home button it just restarted the phone i could do nothing ! only black screen with logo.. so i reset it and tried the above...
it seems that my phone is still rooted, cause i have the "superuser" thing but when i get time i will unroot it and sell this crap of a device and get back my old Nokia N8 again

Don't just root your phone without learning how to actually use the powers it gives you. If you remove anything from /system you will not be able to restore it with factory reset, because factory reset relies on what is in /system. But I guess you figured that out the hard way.
Learn to use ADB and nvflash, nvflash being the easiest based on the guides at 2x.modaco.com. ADB can get you out of most trouble by editing/replacing single files and nvflash will enable you to overwrite all partitions, i.e. with a stock ROM.
Everything you need is in these forums or in the wiki.

yea the hardway was more fun ;-) (actually not )
I was trying the ADB way, but my computer didn regonize the phone so it was difficult
Now i just need the stock apps and launcher so i can unroot it again

start off with this page:
http://android.modaco.com/content/l...rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15-03-2011/
once you have restored the stock rom you can now delete the clockwork recovery by using this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021554
after that unroot in superoneclick and your all done.

What do you want for the phone - lol?

Funny how when ever some user messes up something - then its the device that is crap

Ehmm the deivce is crap... the sounds is terrible.. and the reason why i messed up was i had problems with the device. When i call some one they cant hear me and i cant hear them.. same with income.. but i can text msg.. and its not my carrier or other stuff.. it is the ceappy device ;-)

Upgraded to v10e, lost root, please help getting it back

Hi all,
I'm pretty much a noob here, though I'm trying to read and figure out what I've done wrong.
I was on v10c and had rooted my O2x using superoneclick, easy-peasy. Had SU going, and TiBackup. Backed up my files to Dropbox, decided to go ahead with the LG update, not realizing it would remove my root.
I had frozen a bunch of apps with TiBackup, and those seem to still be frozen, so that's all good. Everything is mostly working well, except I can only move some apps to SD, some just say it's full, even though there's 3gb free. Oh well, it seems to fix it if I un/reinstall, but I'm not so short of space that it's a big deal.
The annoying thing is that SU keeps popping up saying I'm out of date and of course I can't update it without root and I can no longer use TiBackup. I've tried using Superoneclick again but it thinks I'm still rooted. So I tried un-rooting it, but that didn't do anything as when I rebooted and went back in, Superoneclick still thinks I'm rooted.
Any ideas? Also, please explain it as though I'm dumb, cause for these purposes, I kinda am.
TIA
Oliver
btw, at the mo, I have no interest in custom ROMs or whatnot, just want to be able to backup & restore stuff.

I rebooted my computer, rebooted the phone, plugged it in and tried to un-root it again. This didn't get any popups, though I did get a 'FAILED' message at the bottom of the superoneclick message window, can't remember which operation. Nonetheless, I took it as a positive. Rebooted the phone again.
Now it's stuck in a reboot loop! Ffuuuuu.....!!!!
The battery is low, so I'm going to put it on the charger for a while and see if it decides it wants to boot later.
So for THIS problem, I've read that you should take out the sim and battery for a while and try booting it later, correct? If no go, then do a factory reset?
So if I DO a factory reset, what are the correct steps to root the device afterwards? I assume a factory reset just puts Android v2.2.2 back on but doesn't touch the firmware, so it'll stay at v10e, correct? I figure I'll just have to run Superoneclick once and then I should be good to go, right?
Thanks again,
Oliver
This mucking with my phone scares the bejeebus outta me - I always figure I'm gonna brick it. But it's worth it if I can disable the awful Car Home, F-Secure and the horrible FB/TWitter/Myspace crap that LG cripples the phone with.

Just factory reset phone and then root using superoneclick...if that doesnt work, load custom rom, topogigi would be nearest to stock

Okay, I tried to reset it by holding VOL- and then turning the phone on. It says 'S/W UPGRADE Please wait while upgrading' but it appears to be frozen there as it's been sitting on that screen (while plugged in to power) for about 20 minutes.
Any suggestions? Is it safe to pull the battery and try again? Should I have done VOL+ and HOME and then powered it on?
I'm starting to worry here.

I think our phone is unbrickable. I have even tryed to repartition it (failed) and I still managed to fix it. You can follow this guide for going back to stock and then you can upgrade to 10E with lg tool and then do the root. the guide is in greek and i translated it with google translate.

How to return to the Stock Rom LG 2X
Caution: The perierchomena of internal sd will be erased.
Go here and download the Greece / Italy Firmware.
Download drivers and smartflash here.
Run the SmartFlashTool_P990.exe from PC
Close the phone, remove battery, connect the phone and hold down the Volume down (Here we should see a message "software update" and "COM port" in smartflash will be filled automatically after install the drivers if needed)
Select the "ROM Copy D / L"
Check that the "Normal Mode" is selected
Check that the "Erase CAL" is NOT selected
Press the button "browse" next to "AP Bin:" and choose the (BIN) file
Press the button "browse" next to "CP Bin:" and choose the (FLS) file
Press "Start" and wait to complete the flasharisma
Thanks to Jastonas
These I have tried without any problems, but I have to say:
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE Pathe ...

Thanks very much for that, orlox.
I did end up getting it working. I don't know what S/W upgrade was all about, but I decided to pull the battery and try a reset again. This time it worked, in no time flat.
Here's the weird thing.
I set it all up from scratch, and when I plugged it in to root it again, Superoneclick said it was already rooted, did I want to go ahead anyway. I said no, then downloaded Superuser - sure enough, rooted. WTF?
Weird, but I'm not going to argue. Everything's working and it's working well. I don't know what app it is, but the more I install, the slower it gets. Not awful slow, but noticeable. A "fresh" phone always feels so snappy. I don't do all that much, but I put on GO launcher, a bunch of apps. I only use 3 home screens. I have the GO FBwidget, APW Calendar, Typoclock and Fancy widget forecast (4x1). Then I've just got some app shortcuts and that's it. It's not laggy. Just..... not quite as snappy as it was before I installed everything. Perhaps I should just can all the widgets? But then wouldn't I just have an iphone?
Anyway, thanks to those who responded.
For those interested, it is still on v2.2.2 and v10e.

if you dont use a2dp bluetooth and fm radio go for cyanogenmod. Youll see a HUGE speed improvment

just go for v20e if in case its still slow, or even Cyanogen. As for me, same thing and same scenario happened, did a factory reset and that's it, its fixed. As for slow performance in v10e, removed most LG apps except SNS and App Adviser and its all good even on the stock LG Launcher

Im at a loss...[HELP NEEDED]

I recently purchased a P880 used from eBay. The device was/is in like new condition and was in a factory fresh state when i received it. I put in my SIM card and memory card and began to use the phone as usual after setting up the device. today, I went to send a picture mail, and the message got hung up on sending, so I held the power button and selected reboot from the menu. the device rebooted. Upon the device coming back up I was greeted with "Android is upgrading... starting applications". And it just hangs here. I can hold power and vol - and get into stock recovery, I have wiped caches, and data and reset to factory defaults, but I'm always greeted with this message. The device seemed to be rooted when I got it, as it had SuperSU in the apps, and some of my root requiring apps worked without issue. I never rooted the device myself, nor did I install any custom rom, kernel or recovery. Ive had the device for about 24hrs. I'm beginning to think maybe it's model (has some strange options in recovery relating to UART Debugging Logs). Regardless, my issue persists and I am at a loss as to what to do next. If anyone can help me along or give some ideas on how to recover I'd be grateful. -jhayton

Can't you try kdz flash and make it stock? Format factory before and after kdz flash.

[Q] [HELP] Phone Freezes!

Hello guys,
I`m from Brazil and was on UK 10H for weeks, maybe months with no problem. One day trying to increase my battery life I disabled all the safe list found on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018587&page=4
From that day forth I started to get phone freezes everyday for no apparent reason, so I did a factory data reset, flashed to official Brazilian V20a through LG Mobile support tool. Re-rooted, factory reset again and the problem is still here!! ::crying: Now on JB it seems like it usually freezes after unlocking the first screen, but sometimes randomly using any app.
I made a video with it today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4IPNb8mNC8&feature=youtu.be
At first when you unlock, the screen looks right, but when you try to click anything it doesn`t respond. After a while it says: "home has stopped working" I click to close it and I get exactly what you see on the video. Looks like the lock screen clock continues to work, but the "inside clock" doesn't.
Do you have any ideia what I could do?? Currently using superuser. Pleease help!
Thanks :highfive:

There will be other opinions, choose the best for you...
My advice is, re-flash your phone using LGFlash Tool.
Root it, install SuperSU and install it in system (Superuser will be uninstalled and all related files).
Install Busybox if you'll need it, for Lucky Patcher etc...
After that, proceed with uninstall/freeze un-wanted/ no needed apps.
Clean Dalvik-cache and it should be all.

Already tried to install another launcher? I think it is launcher related

I`ve read somewhere about bad widgets on the home screen, so I removed all my widgets and I`m waiting to see if it works. Almost a day now with no problems.. if it doesn`t work I`ll try your ideas! Thanks!
