Thanks

Hello, this exact same thing happened to me, don't worry, your phone isn't dead.
First you might wanna recover your phone so you can calm down a little by knowing that your phone is alright. To do that you have to look at the LG logo that appear when trying to turn on the phone, if it's white with white letters, you are on Gingerbread partition, if it's Red (kinda of pink) with white letters, then you have the ICS partition.
As soon as you see that, you have to download from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1969797 a toolkit that will recover your phone so you can use it again. If you saw a white LG logo, then download the Gingerbread version of the toolkit, if you saw a red logo, then download the ICS version of the toolkit. To recover your phone just follow the instructions in that post and in the program.
After that, you can relax a little by know that your phone is ok. Know you might want to try using Smartflash to upgrade your phone to ICS.
I also had problems, when using Smartflash do update the files 1 by 1, mine stopped halfway through.
Still having wifi problems though

You have to factory reset it, use R&D Test tool. And please, anyone having issues regarding anything, CM7, V20a, flashing, etc. post on dedicated threads instead making one. 'Cause this was solved earlier on those threads. Unless a new issue arises...

I am sorry that i dont know what R&D test tool is. I saw that the related thread have very few response that seems to have no help on that.
Moreover, I need to recover my phone ASAP since I just have this phone for my daily work.
Thanks

Yes, I did try this method but doesnt help at all.
after 100%, it has a reboot, showing LG logo; then reboot, showing LG logo once again.
then, since the third reboot, however, it turns to a black screen and flashing light of the 4 buttons; and have this loop forever and no LG logo again.
sorry for my poor english.
thanks

Try this one. It was also posted there. If you managed to unbrick it by his method, reflash again then with your V10b HK. Don't forget CS_EMERGENCY mode. or with CS_EMERGENCY, Try direct V10b flash. Trial and error.

Actually ...i love XDA tearing my phone to every single bit..learning how to edit roms and everything and testing on my own phone (coz i know how to unbrick nw ) hahahahaha...its fun...
Hi everyone,
My x2 is a vodafone, imei unlocked, stock 2.2 and CWM.
Im in the USA now and im using an iphone here so i wanted to update the x2 while not using it.
I read that lg will update trhe x2 to ICS and i had a pending update on my phone which i couldnt install due to a CWM.. Thinking it might be the ICS i went ahead and removed the CWM.
I removed CWM with "r1-stockrecovery-2x-unsigned", This did allowed me to boot into stock recovery. backed up all my data, did a factory reset and looked for update via wifi.
it found the update, downloaded (it was a small file, so no ics i assume), rebooted it self to install the update and thats it.
Now it boots to the LG logo and it stays there.
power Vol- goes to recovery for a brief moment (15 secs or so) and then back to LG logo.
What i have tryed so far to no avail: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457582&page=2
Uninstalled all LG drivers and software from system, W7 64 bit.
I have downloaded 2x-nvflashdrivers and 2x-v10b-1300166062-nvflash
My comp detects the phone while in recovery mode, but wont take those drivers, hence NVflash cant detect the phone.. Once the phone goes out of recovery more my comp no longer sees the phone as connected.
I know its a lot to read but wanted to clarify in detail as much as i could so we all are in the same page.
UNBRICKED P990 - optimus X2
FIXED!!!
Thanks to a guy on you tube for directions, seach for user "iPhoneIac" tittle "LG Optimus 2x - How to flash to stock rom"
Program used:
SmartFlash P990
SmartFlash drivers, if u see modem driver not working under windows try to do the flash anyways.
Youll need ISO and FLS file as well. I found an open european set.
i can post links but im not sure if its allowed here, if it is let me know and ill post them so others can benefit from it.
Now that i got the phone working i can keep experimenting, i know how to unbrick it now

Hey everyone.
I have the LG Thrill (P925) from AT&T. I'm used to changing roms and trying new things.
Well today I get a text from AT&T saying ICS is out, so I go and download the LG Mobile Support Tool
like the text says. The first few times don't work. I got stuck at the LG boot logo. (I didn't wipe the phone before.)
So I wait an hour to 1.5 hours. Still nothing. I try again and search the forums while I wait. Someone says to try using XP.
So I try in XP mode under Win 7. Everything is going well up until 90%. It does the whole driver disconnected sound as per normal
but then it happens. My phone starts up and shows the LG logo for 3/4ths of a second and then restarts (Black screen for 2 seconds) and
then repeats the whole process over again. What can I do?
(EDIT: Almost forgot: I was on CM7 when I tried to go to Official ICS)
All from the official LG tool...
SOLVED
After trying a few things I held the Volume up button and the power button to get it recognized by the computer. Then
I found a different copy of the LG Mobile support tool than what was on their site. I used the recovery phone option and it worked!
Hopefully this will help someone. I'll post where I got the tool soon.
Could you please give a link or tell me where you got the other lg mobile support tool. Because everything was going good for me and my phone restarted after it was done updating. But when it restarted it got hung up at the att animation and it just stays there... The way I got the official lg mobile support tool to recognize my phone was to put it into download mode also.
I got the KDZ_Flashing_Software.zip from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191698
Install the msxml from the zip then you can use the B2CAppSetup program.
Hope it helps.

Did these suggestions work for you? I'm in the same spot (frozen at&t logo). I've tried recovery phone several times to no avail. Trying one last time hoping for a miracle.
I was running a acidhazardrom gingerbread rom before attempting to update to latest official ICS. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I found out what I did wrong. I didn't uninstall the version of the LG Support Tool before using the one specified in your first post. I removed the original LG support tool and used the one you found and it worked.
Thanks for your help.

Glad to help.
I know it's something I did, probably the custom image I had running, but the LG Support Tool totally borked my phone. My Thrill would only stay on for a split second, and would continuously boot cycle when plugged into USB. The boot cycle was so fast that half the time it wouldn't even get to the LG logo!
Fixed it with fastboot (omap4boot) and SmartFlash Tool. What a nightmare. Only good thing is I was able to flash from BIN file directly to ICS.

Thanks for your help too. Obviously these issues stem from the fact that we used custom roms on the Thrill. It doesn't help that the LG Tools are complete software crap.

noope still stuck at the lg screen
Hello
I am having a little trouble with my LG Optimus 4x HD. The day before yesterday I unlocked my phone an dinstalled clockworkmod. Yesterday I managed to install cm-10.2-20131211-NIGHTLY-p880.zip , I had some trouble but in the end managed to get it to work, but I had no Googleapps. I can't exactly remember what I did, but it resulted in the phone freezing at the LG logo.
I searched the internet and found this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723, but I got stuck on part 4. First perhaps minor problem, my LGMobile Suport Tool looks nothing like his, second perhaps big problem is that there is no option for the LGP880, the only devices i can pick from are
BL20
KM900
LGD802
LGE400
LGP936
I searched google and the internet some more and found this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1932123 post #3.
I could not get it to work, now all my phone does is show "S/W upgrade Please wait while upgrading..." and in the upper left corner "Bootloader state: Unlocked"
This is what i can think of at the moment, any questions or of more information is needed please ask.
Thanks in advance

Try to flesh .kdz file firmware or try to plug it to lg pc suit and try to update it that way.Later you can again flesh CWM.

I redid the second guide, and now for some reason it worked,
Hi, I'm new here and I have a problem with my phone. I searched for the resolve, but there was nothing that really helped. Also sorry for my english, it's not really good.
So I just have a problem with my phone, apps were stopped after I run them and when I tried to restart the phone I started to loop on boot. I managed to restore the kdz using LG Flash Tool 2014 and kdz named D280n10c_00_0111 (yeah, I know it is for another model but after typing my IMEI that is what I got).
I was happy and tried to get a CM 12 with Android Lolipop next because I felt confident that I have a kdz and can quickly reinstall if sth goes wrong. So at first I try to install flash CWM.
I did everything like that kid - sorry i can't give you link to YouTube so the name of the vid is "How to flash CWM RECOVERY on your LG L70" by Captain Techdog28 and ended up with black screen. Everything is working, the phone boot up, I can call someone or send a text, install apps and I can see what I am doing because I'm using [email protected] ver 1.2.
I'm not sure if I didn't do any mistake in commands when I was trying to install CWM.
I can't get recovery or Firmware Update screen so i can't use kdz too I guess.
I tried using LG L70 autopacher and installed TWRP too.
ROM Manager shows that I have installed Clockwork and TWRP
I don't really have any idea what I can do more to repair it. Can you guys help me in any way?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
EDIT: Oooops, I screw up more, now I can only use fastboot and nothin else.
