Can't install any CM10 or any zip - LG Optimus 2x

So, I have a problem.
I have rooted Optimus 2X and installed CWM- based recovery v6.0.1.5 and I wanted to give CM10 a shot...
But, when I tried to install zip it said installation aborted, so I thought maybe it was the recovery, but when I try to find another recovery in rom manager, it says that my phone isn't on the list...
What should I do?

i think the problem is not the cwm but the bootloader... you should know there are two one based on GB one based on ICS and you can't install an Rom for new bootloader (ics) on the old bootloader (gb) and vice versa.
mostly in the post it's told if new or old bootloader.
hope that helped hit thanks if did

have u done this ?
this is from pengus77 cm10 rom thread:
If you come from any ICS with unlocked bootloader (Topogigi, Carburano, etc...):
1) grab the recovery zip and the cm10 zip attached to this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1602866&d=1356865579)
2) enable debug in developer options (if you haven't already of course)
3) connect the usb cable to your box
4) copy the two zips in your external sd card
5) reboot to recovery by holding power and volume down
5) wipe data/cache, then go to mounts and format system (just to be safe)
6) flash the recovery zip file you previously slapped in the external sd card
7) reboot recovery from the advanced menu
8) flash the cm10 zip as usual

Not sure your bootloader was locked or not. I suggest, you refer to AIO toolkit thread in dev section and start afresh.

I think his bootloader is locked..also how did u get 6.0.1.5 cwm on ure phone lol?..pengus's recov is the only one that works for new bootloader and the ver is 6.0.2.5:-??

CM10 for which bootloader? If you are on the ICS bootloader, you cannot install official CM builds. You will have to get Pengus' unofficial build for the new bootloader (which has lots of bugs fixed anyway).

Firstly, you will probably have to restore your partitions with the AIO tool now you have flashed a zip for the wrong bootloader.
When you have done that, look in the development section for roms for the new bootloader - http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1002
I recommend tonyp's Paranoid Android- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097807
Or Pengus's CM10 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2058231
There are CM10.1 roms for the new bootloader available as well. Just have a look in the development section

[Q] Stuck in CWM 5.0.2.6 Recovery - Flashing ROMS doesn't work

Hey,
I am trying to fix a friends optimus black. He has CWM recovery installed but when I flash ROMs then reboot system, it just boots straight back to the recovery. Is there anything I am doing wrong? I have tried 3 different ROMs from the dev section, ICS, GB and JB. I make sure to do a full wipe between flashing.
Many thanks, as I don't have much experience with this phone. (Although I have many years experience with flashing android roms)

Reflash with Smart Flash Tool. A few kernels automatically go to recovery if they fail to load. I can't think of anything else.
Try changing your CWM Recovery by flashing another version. Use my CWM Recovery flasher (in my signature).
thanks, i tried changing CWM using your flasher, but it still didnt work.
I cant use the smartflasher as all the links are broken...

What do you need? Some ROMs to flash? Find links to kdz files in post 3. Extract and root it yourself (also see post 3 on my how to).
might be redundant saying this but in cwm itself have you flashed the 6.0.1.4 update within itself ald?

Wipe data, cache, then go to advanced, wipe dalwik, go back, go to mounts&Storage, mount as mass storage device, put any ROM you want on your sd card, go back, install zip from sd card, choose zip and install the ROM you downloaded

I have just done exactly these steps. I have tried flashing both the zeus rom and AOKP jelly bean build 4. Each time the ROM flashes successfully, however when I select "reboot system now," it just boots straight back to recovery again...
The only thing I could think of trying would be to restore a nandroid with cwm. I dont have one though, can anyone link me to a working nandroid, or upload one?

What kernel did you flash, CM have their own set of kernels and using the stock kernel with CM will cause boot-loops and this may be your problem! Flash the kernel from the CM package first then reflash the ROM, or if the kernel was the problem then flashing it via flashtool will solve the problem altogether without reflashing the ROM!!
Hit THANKS if I helped!!

Is it a drivers problem?!! Have you installed the fastboot drivers first?
No, no, no!!
You flash the CM10 kernel via fastboot. Boot loop is because you're missing the correct kernel (you still have stock kernel)

Maybe what happened to you is that you had flashed a custom recovery, but then in the next reboot the stock recovery was automatically re-flashed.
Try to install custom recovery by Terminal Emulator, then reboot to recovery right after you flashed using command code. I believe you can search for this inside our Atrix HD forum sector.
If you can boot to CWM recovery, there will be a CWM icon instead of an Android bot with its belly opened as in Stock recovery.
Good luck.
Done
Ok thanks too much!! just need instal the Recovery, after that the installation of CM run and installation finished as normal!! there is a new version of CM 10.1 stable, it was what I flash it!!

Like I mention in every one of these threads, Status 7 is, at least 99% of the time, a bad download. Redownload and verify the MD5 checksum.
The MD5 for the official nightly is "513639551c586888db38bc9b17c7dab2". Use this program to verify the MD5 checksum.

4.4 needs the latest CWM to install. Try using Philz Touch Recovery or install the latest img from the Clockwork website.
I don't know if any of you guys solved your issues but you need to download cm11 onto external SD card then download philz touch version of cwm also on ESD card. Flash philz touch in your already existing cwm whatever version that may be. I forgot if it will boot back into recovery automatically but get back into recovery. If you are soft bricked get back in recovery by holding the power and vol up button I think and just flash rom as normal wipe data/cache/dalvik etc. That's how fixed my status 7 and flashed OSE 4.4.2 and loving it. Hope I helped.

I was hoping you fixed the issue. I don't know what to do.
It's a matter of unlocking the boot loader. Once you do that, you can jump back and forth between ICS-based ROMs and everything else.
Gingerbread ROMs include the boot loader (marvel and Huexxx).

No, I don't tried to unlock bootloader, but like you , I got the bootloops every time I downgrade from ICS, Nameless or cyanogen roms . I use original Froyo - flashed with SFT , then upgrade to GB with Cwm recovery patch- flashed with SFT, then boot to recovery and install Nameless. I will give you the links, once I uploaded to my dropbox.
Here, I hope will help you : https://www.dropbox.com/s/psniks1yvqwymy9/firmware v10a-europe-p970.rar

It's not working. Don't know what to try
UP! When I use the bootloader unlocker app the flashing process take about 2-3 seconds and the app closing by itself without any message like "succes". I even tried to flash a u-boot img uploaded by huexxx and at the second reboot the phone stucks on lg logo without flashing leds

Did you already try the alternative way without the app? Which means load the files to your sdcard and afterwards type the dd if=xxxx of=xxxx? This could show if it works or fails. And did you ever flash the LU5900 port? So the early ICS ROM released by Redy, Gabwerkz and me. Try the manual unlock first.

As written in the thread, type it into terminal emulator (an app). Read the thread carefully please.

OK I have the terminal emulator on my phone.
I've read the thread and it says "Move this two files, bootloader and recovery to the root of memory sdcard;
Enter in the command line
su
dd if=/sdcard/u-boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
And reboot or reboot recovery."
I have downloaded all on my laptop(bootloader recovery and su) but I am confuse....what's with that "su"?
Do I have to put it on the root of the sdcard too?
Sorry for my noob question
