http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1255092&d=1344696183
But i forgot to unlock the bootloader, now the phone got stuck at LG logo.
I tried with LG Support Tools but after downloading the software, and upgrading it gets stuck at 4%, I waited two hours and nothing.

I tried with adb sideload, but it says "Installation aborted" after sending the package

Reflash a .kdz file, I think it is the only way to recover your phone
Edit : sorry I didn't read the end of your post areyou sure you installed all the drivers ? Did you put your phone in SW upgrade mode ?

I had the same problem when flashing stock ROM with LG Support Tools. As ectoplasma22 said, make sure you put your phone in SW upgrade mode. I used KDZ_FW_UPD_EN and followed this tutorial from gustavo. I had to remove the battery and put it back before flashing.

[Q] how to remove clockword mod recovery

Hi all
This problem that I have is pissing me off so much. I rooted my phone and then unrooted it, and then my Android Market icon was missing. Now, whenever I want to do a factory reset, the phone goes back to ClockworkMod Recovery every single time. I want to get rid of this CMR. Also, I've tried to stock original rom on my phone but it does not work at all. What is happening? My phone is LG Optimus 2x P990. But I always get this error where I can't apply the DLL file. This really annoying me right now. I've tried everything and NOTHING works. I regret rooting my device.
Please help me thanksss

Here's howto remove the ClockWork Recovery Mode:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021554
You can flash the original image using SmartFlash.
Get your original Firmware image from here. The instructions for SmartFlash are here
how to flash the zip
sorry I am completely new to this. How do I apply the zip? Do I boot into recovery mode and install zip from there? I have done this with other zip files before and it always ended with:
'installation aborted'
im trying it now, but its stuck at:
'Restoring stock recovery image'
smart flash
smart flash doesn't work for me. I always get this time out error.. I really don't know what to do now. The recovery stock file did install but then I chose 'reboot system now' in CWM and it got stuck with the LG logo. Now, it's back to ClockWork Recovery Mod again!! i don't understand. Please help.. Many thnks
what type of error?
your device-manager on your pc recognizes your 2x, when you connect it as described in the instructions?
THis is the error:
00:00.0 Sec ownload Start...
00:07.5 Sec :We can't communicate with specific port
and now, I can't start my phone. It gets stuck on LG logo. I tried the remove CWM method, it worked but when I rebooted my phone, my phone would not start at all. P. Please help.
yep it recognises it but it always gets this time out error... what should I do? Please help.. Many thanxx
Does the COM port get detected automatically when you plugin the phone ?

Same with me. Go on trying at some point it will work. It happens with me everytime i flash with smartflash. Myself also waiting for a definite solution to this problem. i think the problem lies with usb drivers. I also tried with taking out card and sim but cannot pinpoint the problem. Any successful flasher may upload the drivers. Moreover i also disabled programmes like antivirus etc running in background. Waiting for a more definite problemfree flashing solution.
I think, install drivers to smartflash, no other drivers, and later smartflash.

[Q] Semi-bricked / Smartflash tool not working

Hi
I'm helping out a friend, which O2X I have rooted and flashed WIUI on to (I previously owned one myself too)
For some reason the phone started to get hot after a while and used up the battery fast, until one day where he couldn't even turn it on again.
Now, he has been trying to fix it himself with NVflash, but no luck, so now its up to me and you guys.
I have used the smartflash tool and flashed the EURO OPEN stock ROM and everything went succesfull, but when the phone reboots, the LG logo appears, and it bootloops.
I tried both with battery and no battery in, but still no cigar.
Any suggestions what I should try next?
PS: If I try to turn on the phone normally, nothing happens. not even a blink from the screen, but I can get into S/W mode and APX
Try lg update tool, choose recover as option, then choose imei as entrance

EDIT: The software says the update is not compatible (dunno if translation is correct, but you get the point)
Update is aborted :/
No more suggestions on what to do?
Tried:
NVflash
Smartflash (Flashed EURO OPEN rom)
LG Update tool (recover function)
The phone still won't boot.
Smartflash is the only solution like you said that the phone can boot in s/w mode try to dig some answer in smartflash thread or search in google i know you can find some answer there

Assuming you have carried out the procedures correctly, looks like this device is actually defective. Probably not what you want to hear, I know, but...
Before giving up completely, you can NVFlash it again (using the original 10C NVFlash from Modaco) and post the log here. Wouldn't get my hopes up though.

Download this and use SmartFlashTool to flash this. It will unbrick your phone but beware you will lose all your data.

Download the mobile driver again, and follow the instructions correctly. Like, removing the battery, press volume down while plugging in until the s/w update screen appears, etc etc. Good luck! Hope it'll boot after the flash.

I've a similar-ish issue. I've got CWM installed and can boot into CWM ok. My problem was that I tried to install a ROM (MIUI) and the install had no errors, but when the phone was powered on it hung at the MIUI screen.
So I reverted to a backup successfully and decided to have another go (same problem). This time, after I restore to the backup (which is installed without error by CWM) I can't can't past the initial LG screen. Seems to go into reboot loop.
Any thoughts anyone? If I can get into CWM ok and have a working restore then is there something I'm doing wrong!!
thanks,
Mark

[SOLVED] - i think swapper bricked My O4X, please help,

hi last night i installed swapper from market and ran it. afterward when i restarted my phone, it got stuck on LG logo. i waited even half hour but it doesn't go any further.
condition is that i can't access adb at lg logo screen, but i can have adb on flashing mod which comes when you press power button + vol up .
secondly it doesn't detect my internal sdcard in default recovery. when i try to access sdcard from adb by cd sdcard, it doesn't go in sdcard. when i try to flash another update.zip from ext-sdcard from default recovery, it says unknown volume for path [/sdcard].
so did swapper deleted my internal sdcard partition or what did it do? what is the solution? i tried to find swapper app from adb, went through folders to folder but i couldn't find it out. may be if i can find it from adb and remove it and also it's created file from sdcard my phone come back to life?
in the last my phone is in warranty. atleast someone show me a way to completely remove rooting from my phone through adb so i can take my phone to their customer center.
i also have lg pc suite and mobile support tool.
i had root access with supersu and i installed cwm recovery in my phone. but since phone is not starting up, i can't go into cwm recovery, i can only go in the default recovery.
please help

You tried to flash your version with kdz?
Maybe you don't need to do a clean install and keep your files and apps.

bro its ****in up my mind. there are a lot of things on internet, lots of guides, on xda forums there is a post i saw http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723
this post is a tutorial to flash kdz, but i don't know what is my current firmware version, if its 20x or 10x. and how can i see that? coz he says don't downgrade from 20x to 10x with this tool, and i don't know if my is 20x may be? and i might make my problem more complicated by doing wrong things.
please guide me with right path. i'm in trouble and i'm not very experienced in these stuff, i just wanna know things i don't know like i don't know which version of kdz i should download from his link, my country is pakistan and it is not in list of countries over there, and there is european open kdz which is 10a 10b etc. which is for me? your signature says you have 20x, i don't see any 20x over there?
i repeat my situation again.
installed swapper
restarted phone
stuck on LG logo
restarted again n again, no luck
tried adb commands to remove swapper package but can't find sdcard in my root.
tried default recovery, wipe data, wipe cache, restarted, no luck
copied a custonexus rom on my ext-sd, renamed it to update.zip, went to default recovery, tried install update from ext-sd, it gives error "unknown volume for path [/sdcard]"
tried to push update.zip to cache "adb push update.zip /cache", it gives error "permission denied" file system read only.
tried to do these things by connecting my phone to pc while phone is in recovery by removing batteries and inserting, Vol down + power long hold, no luck
tried to do these things while in strange mode lol, removing batteries and inserting, vol up + power long hold. no luck
tried LG support tools, menu > customer support > recovery phone while in strange mode lol vol up + power long hold, it downloads, extracts, and on process of updating it gets stuck on 4%, waited half hour, but no luck
tried the above while going in recovery mode on phone and same options above, but it doesn't connect device.
tried to power on and on LG Logo, same did same above but no luck.
tried to go in S/W mode and do the same above, but it says communication problem, remove batteries and insert and restart update.
now thats all i could do and i know at the moment to do. flashing kdz is new thing for me, im gonna try it but i'm not sure where to start. where to download my kdz and which are right kdz for me.
this is where i need your help. please spare me some time and just tell me and think about what could i do now,
why my phone is stuck on lg logo even internal sdcard is not available, i don't know if it's unmounted by swapper, deleted or formated or partition removed. i can't use adb commands to push coz it's read only, I'm stuck
i can't even take my phone to warranty center coz it's rooted, it has root files in it which will show them it was rooted and warranty will void , even if i delete root files, how can i convince them what did i do with my phone that it's system files are touched and they can't be touched without being rooted.

LG G4 H811 (T-Mobile) bricked

Good morning,
I recently decided to attempt to root my LG G4 and install a custom ROM. I was able to unlock the bootloader and boot TWRP, but at this point I received an error when I tried to install the Cyanogenmod ROM that I had downloaded.
At this point, my phone is a brick. If I turn it on normally, the LG screen comes up and stays. There is a message in the upper lefthand corner saying that the bootloader is unlocked.
I am able to boot into download mode. I have tried using LGUP and the LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the original kdz but I get connection errors with both approaches.
Any ideas what my next course of action should be?
Thanks in advance!
Mine is doing the same thing and I am getting errors on 9% on both versions of tools version 2014 and 2016. No one has an idea why? I have done this unit before what out any problems!
Use lg up and the newest kdz (20o). Manually enter download mode and then start lg up. Also you might have to download and install lg drivers onto your PC.

This is what solved the issue for me. I simply had the wrong KDZ. The 20o is the one I needed.
My lg g4 got the fault in the system where it stuck in the bootloader and all I did was us lg up and kdz 10n and the phone didn't boot but I was able to return it and get a phone because when you do that your deleted everything off it and making it to where it was when it came out of the box

One small thing you might want to try first. Open LGUP with your phone connected in download mode. Choose the kdz file you want to use, then CLOSE LGUP (leaving the phone connected). Then reopen LGUP and the kdz file should still be selected. Then click Start.

Have you try booting into download and open LG Bridge, software update and follow the steps it tells you?
Mine randomly restarted and entered a boot loop on the way into work today. I couldn't enter recovery. I just let it loop. When I checked it when I got to work about 30 minutes later, the screen was dark and I figured it had died. It was booted to my lock screen. The weird part is that all of my "recent apps" were still open. I'd taken the battery out several times. It now reboots without issue. Perhaps I slipped into an alternate universe where my phone didn't die on the way to work. #mandellaeffect

Hello,I got trouble connecting the LGUP. It tells me the device model is unknown so I can't choose it.I guess it's because I edited the build.prop:crying: Could you tell me how to rescue my phone?
