[Q] Phone bricked, black display and nv flash seems don't work! HELP PLS

Flashing ICS debug ROM, smartflash showed a timoeout error that I never had. The phone suts down and now the display is totally black and all functions don't start(recovery, booting, charging). I'm trying to use NVflash to rebirth it, but when I start flashing it creates 19 partitions, formats them and when starts sending flashboot.img it seems to be blocked(10 min saying this and I shut down the command prompt). Must I wait this long time or it is really blocked?

yes, i tried both redownloading and changing ROM, and it still blocks on flashboot.img

oh, you shouldn't have done that mate
The o2x is said to be unbrickable, but some people still manage in anyway. I yesterday when the ICS debug rom was installing with smartflash unplugged the cable right after it was dont formatting everything, nvflash still worked though, but if it doesn't with you you're pretty much screwed. Have you already tried this nvflash, maybe that'll work.

I confirm that, also on my laptop I had to change usb port to make nvflash working. For some reasons one usb port (maybe 3.0?) does not work with phone in apx-mode.

For some unknown reasons to me, my O2X does not work when connected to a usb3.0 port, while in apx-mode. When not in apx-mode all is working also with usb3.0. The behaviour is strange, the device is correctly seen when booted, but after that gives timeout-error.
BTW this is not a problem for me since I also have USB2 ports on my laptops.

My driver is working correctly, the problem (perfectly reproducible) is concerned with a specific usb port, with all other ports the phone is working as expected. I also tried different cables, the behaviour remained the same.
Maybe that port has not enough power for the phone but being a USB3 port, it sounds strange to me.
G.

I have the same problem. I bricked my LG 2X yesterday and I would like to flash something stock but I think my bootloader is blocked so I don't know how to fix my smartphone. Is there anyone who has managed to handle this problem? Please, I really want to unbrick my P990 but the most popular methods with NvFlash and SmartFlashTool don't work! :crying:

Oh. That was a bug on my Windows 7. I unbricked my phone on Windows XP with this tutorial:

[GUIDE] How to Install Ice Cream Sandwich on your Rogers P925 (Or fix baseband issue)

Well, after a TON of work, and unsuccessful attempts at getting this, I finally was able to get signal and working data on my phone. I know some people had had trouble with the process, so I'm going to post my guide here to help you all out.
There are two parts to this tutorial. Only one is needed, however, to get ICS to properly work, so find the one that fits your current predicament AND ONLY USE THAT PART OF THE TUTORIAL.
If this is your first time installing the ICS rom...
Follow the LG flashing tool guide that XBSall has linked in his ICS Rom post. You can also find it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490 . However, when you install the ROM, DO NOT USE THE .FLS FILE HE PROVIDES. Instead, download the v18A baseband and install that one with the .BIN file he provides. You can find the v18A baseband here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338383 I believe. After you flash the entire thing, you should have ICS! Easy!
If you have the ICS Rom installed now, but have no signal...
This is a bit more complicated, but still very easy. After I flashed ICS, I was not able to flash things using LGFlashTool like I could in GB. This is how I ended up flashing the baseband to fix my issues.
We need to set up your phone to connect with LGFlashTool first. To do this, use XBSall's restore to GB method, located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942836 . You will need the OMAP4BOOT files, but you will need nothing else.
Follow his tutorial up until step 6. When he tells you to insert the battery, insert it AS FAST as you can. I messed up on the timing the first few times. Once I saw a greyscale LG logo, and a few other times it just booted normally. Just try again if this happens. Eventually you will get the screenshot in step 9. DO NOT remove the cable when OMAP4BOOT tells you to, as well.
Follow step 10 and 11 of XBSalls restore tutorial, and then follow step 12. When you set up LGFlashTool for the reflashing, simply select the v18A baseband to flash and then start the process. If done correctly, Port 1 should state READY. Repeat steps 3-9 in his tutorial. It will start the flashing process. Once you get an error, close the program, and remove your phones battery and disconnect it from your computer.
Turn on your phone, and receive signal. PROFIT.
Hope this helps you guys out a bit, and remember to hit thanks if this helped you.

still no signal... ill try again... atleast closer to fixing... attached is the error im getting... when i go into About and check the baseband it still has V30
EDIT: When into System Settings > About Phone > Software Information ... it is showing the following information.
Baseband Version: XMM6260
Software Version: LGSU760-V30b-OCT-18-2012

Can anyone help? The guide dosent show you how to install the OMAP4430 drivers, but i found out myself how to do it so whatever. Problem is, now "OMAP4430 USB Device" is dissappearing and reappearing over and over again when i boot with volume up. Can anyone shed some light as to how to fix this?
And my phone isnt bricked, i can turn it on right now and everything.
EDIT: Found the problem, you need to hold VolUp after OMAP4430 pops up. Funny, it says in the guide to let go when it pops up. Fixed my mistake though.

Hello everyone,
I'm currently trying to get ICS installer on my rogers P925. I tried many times on two computers (both windows 7 one is 32bits other is 62bits) to flash the bin and fls files you are recommanding but it seems like even if my OMAP 4430 device driver is correctly installed via the program files texas instuments dll it seems it wont stay connected at all and just pop open and closed sometimes when it seems to want, and it makes the flashing procedure impossible to me any ideas?

XBSALL helped me out! It's finally working now! My problem was with the port. He got my phone rooted, changed USB port (I mistakenly was changing the wrong one), installed TWRP, put his ICS cleaned mod version on through TWRP zip install. It's all working now full bars of 3G!

help?
Finally got to flash ICS on phone but it was giving me errors everytime I wasn't using original baseband associated with .bin file. Now, I can't get it to boot in fastboot even using OMAP4boot I don't really understand when I need to insert fast the battery... OMAP4boot doesn't seem to get my phone...

You will always get errors as these are not full kdz files. If you are stuck at lg logo..try pull batt replace then hold vol- and power button til you see a factory reset screen do reset and boot..that made mine boot.

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear enough, but my phone boots now, it's only I had to flash it with the O3D fls file and not the .fls I was supposed to use so I get a working ICS without any network.
Now that i'm trying to complete step 2 to get te right baseband, i can't get the phone to boot in download mode even using OMAP fasboot flash. the software just don't say anything appart from "waiting for phone".
So I was wondering if I was doing anything wrong

it's almost the 10th time I follow the guide step by step by step... I think or i'm always doing wrong something or it's something else with my phone... I may have misconfigured one port but i do NEVER NEVER at all in the process see OMAP4430 device in my device manager.. so the little windows tool is not doing anything... maybe if someone wanna teamviewer they can see for themselves what it gives.

Wahoo, ICS + network
finally found that there was the correct driver for my computer in the omap4boot folder and not in everyother one I was installing, flashed with the guide after i found this driver and everything works fine
only thing i'm struggling is to set apns to get 3G any tricks?

Do a Google search for AT&T 4G APN (or whoever our carrier is). You can also create an APN with the word "phone" in the first two blanks, name and APN (I think), and it should give you access to 3G and HSPA. I hit 6.7mbps on Speed Test.

[Q] Stuck on logo first, then no APN, now can not replace ROM

Hi everyone, I really need your help. I have basically bricked my phone but it is not beyond hope as some things seem to be working.
What I did:
I used ROM Manager to boot into a boot screen. I was very turned around and confused and I did not have Clockwork Mod on my CM9 phone, as I thought and I'm really not sure why I thought this was the right thing.... In that boot screen I flashed a TWRP recovery file (http://goo.im/devs/tonyp/P990-stuff/TWRP).
What happens now:
I get a white logo and then the phone turns "on" but on is only a white logo with a little splash of purple behind it (like 2cm long). This "on" state the touchscreen is sensitive insofar as if you touch it when it dims the brightness will jump back up again. That's it though. If I plug the phone into the computer (win7) the pc will ding ding and sometimes it says it installed properly, sometimes not, either way it does not show up in My Computer as a device. If I run SmartFlasher on the pc and plug the phone in (in S/W Upgrade mode which it appears able to do), SmartFlasher will detect the COM Port.
What I already tried:
I tried to use SmartFlasher to flash a stock ROM I found (http://www.modaco.com/topic/350555-lg-optimus-2x-stock-rom-update/) but I received a very non-helpful error that just says "type mismatch error". I tried another file, can't remember what it was or where I found it, but I got the mismatch error also. I also tried to update the phone via the LG Mobile Tool. It finds the phone, installs drivers, etc, even lets me open the update thing but then during the process it says it can not communicate with the phone and it is aborted.
Any ideas?? I can't afford a new/used phone... There must be some way to salvage this...?

Use this tool to solve your problems http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737 ..... And as you have the old bootloader, so make sure you flash all files for old bootloader only and not new one....
And also make sure to read the instructions given in tool manual...

Thank you! I will do this in a few hours on my break and see where I get

Ok...so I had to do a LOT of stuff w/n that tool that did not work before I managed to get anywhere...but I got somewhere! yay!!
The phone now boots into TWRP v2.5.0.0. The next step is to flash a ROM because there is no o/s installed. Before I go any further I'd like to know, should I use the stock ROM or should I use the files from ParanoidAndroid 2.6 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097807 -- the link you gave me the other day).

Stock ROM sucks..... Use Paranoid Android... You won't regret it ...

Unfortunately more problems lol I was able to get it on there without problem. However I can not connect to my cell provider. The APN listing is blank and even if I manually enter and select save it does not save it, the list stays blank.
So, next I tried the most stable release of CM just to get this f'ing thing working. It went through and said it was successful but when I boot the phone up it is still Paranoid Android...which I don't mind except the APNs are still blank and my phone is still useless.
Any idea what I should do next? I tried searching for this APN problem and I tried two APN apps from marketplace, neither worked. I think the solution is to clear the phone and do another flash but that does not seem to be working...

If I remember correctly, some people had this APN problem but I NEVER had it... They solved it by manually inputting the APN... But seems you are having some weird problems as it doesn't even save the APN.... Try again inputting APN manually and save it properly ..... If it doesn't save then try CM 10.1 from link I gave earlier.... That is also a cooooool and smoooooth ROM with many more features ....
And make sure you install a new ROM only after a full wipe and also system format after taking backups of your apps, etc obviously ....

When I tried to install the newest stable CM I did do a full wipe (according to the TWRP v2.5 ). That's why I don't know what to do now. I can't seem to get Paranoid Android off / change to a different ROM.
Any ideas?

Okay so I have put 3 different versions on now and they all look and work great...except no cell connection, no apn's. I saw some people fix this by replacing their BB via smartflash but I can not do that because I get timeout errors. Smartflash doesn't work at all. Neither does the LG Update tool from w/n that toolkit. The only thing that does work is flashing zip from sd card and changing the recovery image via adb in that toolkit. I can not find any methods of replacing the BB except via Smartflash.

If you get timeout errors in smartflash, then do this trick.... When you click "Start" in smartflash and the flashing process starts then immediately pull the battery back inside phone and then you shouldn't get timeout errors ..... This always works for me.....

nope...exactly the same:
00:00.0 Sec ownload Start...

I live in Canada, my provider is Wind Mobile. This was originally a T-Mobile phone from the US. I bought it used, it was unlocked and running an older version of CM. The actual model number is P999DW
For convenience I just want to recap the issue:
I'm open to ALL ideas! On the all in one toolkit that I downloaded from the first reply only a few options work. The LG Update Tool and Smartflash...whether using them via the AIO toolkit or just using them independently always error out with some sort of communication based error. I can repartition and change the recovery image but that seems to be the only options that work from AIO toolkit. My understanding of the problem is that there is no, or an incorrect baseband file. The phone is behaving almost like a tablet. It won't search for networks and it doesn't even give me a SIM error, it's just not looking for it at all. I have formatted sys and repartitioned and wiped and re-flashed several different ROMs (Paranoid Android, stable CM, tonyp CM 10.1, etc) but this problem remains.

What? Do u have a P999? I'm not sure, but I don't think that P990 ROM will work correctly on it... In fact it shouldn't even install as the updater script checks whether the phone is P990 or not.... And if it isn't then it should show error and not flash the ROM... Did you change the updater script line to P999 instead of P990 to make it work...

I didn't do anything different. The P999 is just the T-mobile version and P990 is the International/Rogers/etc version. It was previously running CM so I don't really think that is the problem. http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/37457-p999-vs-p990/ The only errors I am getting are communication errors between the PC and the phone...not version related errors.
I would happily put the stock P999DW kdz file on if I could but the only method I know to do that (LG Update Tool via that AIO toolkit) does not work because it is timing out.

Okay so everything on my phone before and also now says it is an Optimus 2X. I started searching after your last comment and does this mean I have a Optimus G2X? F'd up...even the battery says it is a P990 Optimus 2X. Gonna see if I can find any NVflash ROMs for that one since nvflash method is working.

Download firmware from here ... It also gives list of official links .... There are P990, P999, SU660,P990HN firmwares with different countries listed...
http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=3
Try to flash it as KDZ (or) extract .bin & .fls files from it using AIO Toolkit and then Smartflash those two files ... If you want to flash only baseband then .fls one is the baseband ....
I'm telling to do this because it may be possible that you are trying to flash wrong KDZ or wrong baseband and that's why, may be, you are not able to do it ....
If you flash v30 firmware then your bootloader will, most probably, be changed to new one .... So consider that in mind also before flashing .....
Or a better solution ..... Natalya said that he/she might be knowing the solution to your problem... So try to consult for that also....
Again, there is a dedicated development for P999 also on CyanogenMod apart from P990 http://get.cm/?device=p999 ...

Okay so everything on my phone before and also now says it is an Optimus 2X. I started searching after your last comment and does this mean I have a Optimus G2X? F'd up...even the battery says it is a P990 Optimus 2X. Gonna see if I can find any NVflash ROMs for that one since nvflash method is working.

You just got a bit ahead of me in writing this comment ... I couldn't see it before writing my reply .... So one of the methods for confirming your phone is to look beneath your phone battery on the phone and another is to go to the first link I gave above and insert your IMEI also there in the link and then see what firmware download link LG returns .... Phone model will be also written in the download link, so you can check there also....

[Q] Totally messed up Phone

all tries i made to unlock the bootloader, install a usable rom or install a working recovery failed.
my system is totally messed up. booting to recovery results in a lge_security error and my android system process consumes 75 % of the battery power, its empty after 7 hours with display usage at 2 %.
unlocking and installing new roms would take days of trying. and all the numerous hours and several sorts of attempts i spent on it were pointless. i just want to sell this piece of s**t but without a stock firmware its not possible.
is there a method to restore the phone to stock state with a LG software tool for selling ?
if so, does it also work with the 262-000 phone which is truly the worst product i ever bought ?
please help, this is far from usable, even with my connected batterypack it just discharges slower and starts to heat like a stove.
greetings and lot of thanks for your suggestions.

Seems as if i am not allowed to call members lazy when they don't try before they post, also seems i can't say it sucks to be them when they mess up their device and give up before they try anything
I Apologize @Henka85 please refer to my below post for the appropriate support

Lot of Thanks again.
I was looking for someone able to gíve an reply like "yes, there is such a kind of tool" or "no, there isnt".
The KDZ flashing methods and 90% of the tools here dont work or dont restore the recovery on 262-000.
I rather sell it really cheap than spending another days of my rare sparetime, just to discover i have to reflash KDZ with my current state.
Let me guess, you dont have the 262-000 version, so easy to speak for you, probably.

In future, if you don't know what your doing, then just don't do it, if this was your first device you was to mess with, then it should either have been a spare/old phone you wouldn't mind mucking up, flash the .kdz and see what happens, if you get bootloop it means progress, if your bootloader is not unlocked and you have the error, there is already a thread on it, just do a quick search, a softbricked 4x HD is worth less then half as much as a working 4x HD, try out the toolkit, and try get an adb connection, can be achieved through bootloops sometimes!

kdz flasher works on any version. if it doesnt work for you, try another usb port, or another os, or another computer. it must work, there's nothing telling it not to work in case it's 262-000. try kdz flasher, try lgflashtool, try another firmware. it must work, unless there's a hardware fault, but there most likely isn't

I have a 262-000 and I'm running vanir 4.3 without ANY problems...
I might have to say that the fault lies on you
But you should probably check your drivers or reinstall them if flashtool doesn't work for you.
Once had a similar problem caused by bad/wrong drivers.

And don't forget not to use Windows 8, it doesn't work. Use XP or 7.

win 8 here. flashed my phone uncountable times with KDZ updater.

Problem with vanir 4.3 on my P880
Hi ..
I just flashed the VANIR 4.3 on my P880 ,, every thing is ok & I can make outgoing calls , BUT I CAN,T recive any .... when some one dial in my number it t,s busy ( seems like Black list enabled for all incoming ) & I tdiabled Black list & still have the problem .. !!!!! ??? any Ideas ??
I tried CM10.2 & Mokee rom & it was working nice without problems & when I got back & flashed Stock Rom it worked OK too .... so there must be a trick in VANIR which i don,t know ...
i tried to send in the official VANIR thread but i couldn't, cause i,m not allowed cause i,m not a developer .
Edited :
Plrblem solved after applying Google Apps & connected to google services ..

the guide to go back to original rom is here.
if u wanna go give it a good try to install a custom rom, do it. your problem there is the adb drivers. u havent installed the adb drivers for the phone to go to adb and unlock the bootloader. if u cant install adb drivers , the easy way is to install the android sdk x32 version ( even if u r on x64 windows ) and update it. And i will agree on the above thread. u are lazy u should do a very very good search in forum for guides to help u do whatever u want. to root - unlock bootloader - install recovery - install a custom rom is like 30 minutes in total if u follow a good guide !
edit: oh i was really late to see the thread so problem is solved?

Hey guys,
So I had this problem with my 4x because of rooting it there was no baseband atleast it was unkown. I followed a guide but that didn't help. I tried Lg Flash Tool but that gives me a Download error after some seconds. Then I tried putting back the orginal KDZ but it says everything worked but the phone won't reboot like it should. Waited 20 mins to do something.
Running Windows 8 64x
I have no idea what to do now, please help.

You're doing something wrong. Follow the instructions to the letter, don't rush and it will work.

It won't even go there. It quickly shows the LG Logo and all the sudden it gets to S/W Upgrade. Can't get in Recovery or anything else.

Whenever I try Flash Tool it gives me a Download Fail with error code 210? Help please.

try to change the phonemode on software update(KDZ) from DIAG to EMERGENCY. that saved me a week ago .i had the same problem

Similar Problem...HELP
Hello, I seem to be having a similar problem. I tried KDZ, as per the flashing tools page, but after running the KDZ unpacking and then it stops at paramenter 210. The phone screen stays at S/W Upgrade, and nothing else happens. The KDZ log stays at parameter 210, and goes no further. I am following all the exact steps. Also in the KDZ Phone Information link/Button, no info shows up about Phone, meaning all fields are blank. Back ground Information: i had before a CUSTOM ROm 4.4+ & later 5.0+ installed, but somehow after some time, my phone stopped recognising any SIMs. Android would work but no Sim was working. I thought it was a hardware defect, but later i checked in Settings> Status, there was no IMEI showing. Something had messed up, I read up that reinstalling the stock ROM may solve the issue, so i tried it. But all i have now is that a phone that doesnt boot up, always shows S/W Update screen. And with KDZ only goes up till parameter 210 (in software status log) and doesent go further. Tried all DIAG/Emergency etc. Is my phone bricked or is there a solution ? Please HELP ..... Any help/suggestion appreciated. Thx

I tried the LG Flash Tool as mentioned in the link. But my update only runs till 10%, and shows 0Kb / 0Kb, and then after 18s returns an error, Failed !. Also there are no 3 ports open as mentined in one of the posts when all ports 1-16 are used/ticked in options. I have only read half of the posts in the link, so maybe there is a solution, otherwise it seems something has gone wrong in the phone
Thanks for the suggestions and link, although not working for me.
