[Q] How can i fully brick my o4x? - LG Optimus 4X HD

hi i would like to know how i can fully brick my o4x so i can send it back for a replacement.i have had this phone for less than 2 weeks and have had nothing but trouble with it.it keeps randomly rebooting sometimes up to 10 times a day i have tried everything to sort it out but to no avail.I know that if i send it back as it is if it does not reboot on them they will just send it back saying there is nothing wrong with it.any help would be greatly appreciated

Doesn't work! I tried to brick mine in all possible ways I could imagine, and the far that I get was a screen with the LG symbol and under "error!!! Check morning call". I never lost the access to ARS...

Ask kholk, he seems to have done it.

if its under a month old, you can take it back to where you brought it for a new one, they cant refuse under a month

This is how i bricked mine abut didnt get a new one. only got it fixed : put it under my pillow before going to sleep. woke up the next morning to surf the internet, and the screen was black, and the phone was hot as fire sent it back to get it fixed, and it showed that the head card was replaced, so they didnt find out that it was rooted ether

[Q] Bricked phone, Jig is not working

Ok so what happened was, I installed the Voodoo Lagfix + sound kernal for froyo and then I was having issues with the sound so I decided to just restore the phone back to stock. I put it into download mode via ADB, opened Odin and started it but somehow the cord got unplugged right when it says do not unplug. This has happened to me before so I have a jig that I bought online. It worked many times before but now when I take out the sim and sd and put in the jig with battery it just doesnt turn on. it says off and then if i hold the power by myself it boots into Phone..!..Computer. I cant do the 3 button download mode trick because I have flashed with odin before and it hasnt worked since then. What should I do? Should I just call Samsung and or att and just say my device got disconnected when updating?
EDIT :
I have already sent the phone to samsung, they said its going to take a total of 7 to 8 days for me to get my phone back. Thank you to everyone who helped
I read that if you remove the batt, put it back in then while holding just volume buttons in plug in the usb. Tried it and it went to dl mode for me. Hope this helps.

[Q] My lg 4x hd soaking wet come back to life with a problem

Hello everyone , i'm watching your site for long time. You are doing great job. Anyway , my phone gets soaking wet. After one week i press the power button to open my phone.Everything works perfect except home button,back button and properties button are light up all the time , even when the phone is off. I put some pictures to see what's going on . I hope you have a solution , thank you in advance(sorry for my english)
Once they turn off when you disable them in settings, might be a software problem. You tried to flash it with other version? The problem remains?

Thank you for your response. The only the thing I did it's factory data reset, and but the problem still there.

If I well understood, it got wet... try to take out the battery and leave it open under the sunlight time enough to be dry for sure. Unless you want to open it...
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
You should open you phone and make sure there is no water left in side.I suggest you take your phone to a repair service.They'll know what to do. I once dropped my phone into water and tried to fix it myself. The result is the 3G ,GPS didn't work anymore and after about a month, the phone died
thank you guys for your answers . I let my phone to dry well and it seen to be okay.

[Q] I think my phone died...

Hello! Frist of all, I want to say that I'm new and I just learned this page from Google when I searched for a situation like mine.
I have Samsung Galaxy S Advance.
Back in January, when the new Russian firmware came out, I updated my phone via odin, successfully.
Yesterday, I updated again with the newer Italian firmware successfully. I reset it in order to work better and then I reinstalled the apps that I wanted. (I reset it becasue I have many apps that I didn't want)
Anyway, the phone worked fine for almost 24 hours. When my phone turned off 'cause of the battery, I charged it and then I turned it on fine.
The next morning I unplagged it from the charger and it was fine.
After half an hour that I wanted to call someone, it didn't work. I was pressing thw power button all over again and nothing.
I tried to put it on download mode etc. and nothing with none of them.
I seems to me dead.
I read stuff you said to other people about up volume, down etc. I tried everything, but nothing.
Is there anything else that I can do?
Please help me.

i think they can,but just say the phone died and nothing else..even if they get to know, as this is the stock firmware from Samsung, your warranty still holds good..that is not a problem..

it doesn't void your warranty as long as it is a stock firmware..
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda premium
The phone does absolutely nothing. I tried to charge it for about an hour, nothing appeared. I tried to connect it with PC, nothing happened.
The warranty says that it covers me only in Europe... So, now that I have installed an Asia firmware, I don't think that it covers me.
For some reason, although I bought from a Greek Store (I'm Greek) but the firmware it is Europe one and not the Greek One. The same thing says at the box too.
Oh, I don't know...
Bad lack maybe. They stole my iPhone 4S, my SE X10 broke and now that. And all that from January to April...

talk about bad luck man.. phew.. take it to the store tomorrow.. act dumb and say you don't know what the hell happened..hope for the best..
and your warranty is not void as long as it is the stock firmware. that is certain. i had this doubt too when i flashed the Russian firmware.. one of the Devs here told me that it doesn't void the warranty..

Place it under the back cover. Beside the camera and under usb port. Make sure it puts pressure, but dont put too thick paper. Try unscrewing and check the disassembling thread.
