phone stuck on lg logo but can install the rom

hi i have a lg optimus 2x korea and i cant boot into custom rom.i installed cwm recovery and clear cache, data and successfully installed my custom rom but when i rebooted the phone i was stuck with the lg logo.can someone fix this.thanks also i forgot to backup.so how is their a method to return to stock

Try wiping everything and flashing ROM again. Give it a 2nd chance. Else you can download another ROM (in pc etc), put it in micro sdcard and flash it.
You can go to stock by using smartflash(search in Development section), but believe me its more pain n the ass to do that!! besides you lose you root and recovery too.

Use LG update tool to update to the latest country ROM and then you can get back root, custom ROM and so on....best always is the LG update tool which wipes all in a safe and best way

Try and try as I might, I can't get the LG software to recognize the phone no matter what I do.

[Q] LG SECURITY ERROR - Bootloop on Optimus Black

I had rooted my Optimus Black right from the first week i had bought in May 2012. Tried all the possible custom ROM's out there. Huexx's Zeus ROM was my favourite. But due to power problems (abrupt restarts and excessive heating during charging) I had to give my Black to service center for repair. I made sure that I switched back to stock ROM before I give it back to the service center.
Since then, I have been unable to ROOT it !!
Tried all the possible methods to root it:
CWM Injection, Smartflash resulted into BOOTLOOP's when i tried to flash older V10 and V20 firmwares. Only firmwares that worked were V20 F and V20 G.
This got me really frustrated as I just couldnt ROOT IT.
Today I flashed European V30 with the intention of ROOTING it with Unlockroot.
This time i was successful in ROOTING.
I installed Rom Manager, Flashed CLockwordmod Recovery. Rebooted into recovery and was greeted with a "LG Security Error" !!!! The phone just wont start.
What is going on ?? Is my bootloader locked ?? I dont know ??
Can someone please help me ??

Official ICS has bootloader locked.

lg putted a "crc check" on the bootloader so if its modified like your case, it gives a security error

Does that mean I am stuck on STOCK firmware from now on ?? This sucks.
I also came across things like for the Optimus G and Nitro.
Cant anything be done regarding this matter for the Black ?
Removing the very essence of andriod OS by LG by resorting to such stupidity really DISGUSTS me.
Please Dev's, come up with something. STOCK LG roms suck ass.

yes you cannot have cwm with that rom (atleast this easy)
flash another rom with smartflashtool

Download THIS and use THIS tutorial .. you`ll get Gingerbread rooted. After this install rom manager and you can install custom rom.

Tried it but FAILED.
STUCK on LG logo with the bottom lights blinking. Waited for more than 10 mins but just stuck there.
As I had mentioned earlier, can boot successfully through only stock firmwares like V20 F, V20 G and V30. Cannot flash patched roms and neither can I flash old V10 firmware as it results in BOOTLOOP.

Help Me !

A lot of people flash a patched V20 and they forget to flash the Superuser and that results in a bootloop.At least it happened to me when I first rooted my OB in ancient times.Maybe this is the case.

EXACTLY !!
IT WONT BOOT AFTER FLASHING PATCHED FIRMWARE. STUCK ON LG logo with blinking bottom lights (strange but true).
Tried Rom Converter 2 and 2.1, Injection Method, everything.
Patched V20S, V20O does not work.
also CANNOT boot succesfully throuh a Stock V10 (so that it becomes easy to root).

Did you start smartflash as admin? Disable anti virus program and firewall maybe?
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app

Hi
This happens if you flash original v30b with smart flash and the only way to go back to GB is flash a patched v20 version....
And it directly first boots into CWM...now dont restart....just flash your backup from your memcard,this will bring your phone back alive....
You can try copy any other zip version in your memory card if u dont have backup....
The problem is original v30 formats the phone in some diff format.....
Flashing it back with CWM...brings it back alive....
If you already flashed patched version then u can try to enter CWM by console...adb reboot recovery......else do as mentioned above....

What version of SafeStrap did you have installed ? 3.7.1 or 3.7.2

Dude. Wait. If you wiped system you have no rom..All you have to do is use your computer and download a rom and push to your sd card. Then use stock or recovery to flash. Lol. I did this on my nexus once. Anyway it's simple fix.

I would say you could revert to MJ5 link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559715. Read it to the T. This will put the MJ5 4.3 back on your phone. You don't need safestrap to revert back to MJ5 method. You can root and install safestrap back on when its installed. Just do steps 1-9 if you don't want to root this method. don't worry about this download link ( https://mega.co.nz/#F!icMTnSQY!bMBNFmUnn2_K8olSTYpwIA (mirror provided by drakeymcmb) i'ts just a mirror for the ml9 fix.image ext4.

Alright, I'll follow this eexact. I am not new to flashing and ROM mods. (Been doing it since the s2). I normally would push via ADB, use a custom recovery and be set. But, just picked up the note 2… and ADB wouldnt detect the phone to push ROM.. (Using ADB device). So, anyways.... I know I have to use ODIN. I know its not fubard because the phone boots into download and stock recovery mode.
Thanks everyone, I really want to get this fix. Luckily I have a nexus 5 as well.

We can't use the old way to get into our or past our bootloaders. If you follow everything on revert to MJ5 steps 1-9 that should give you bootable verse of MJ5 4.3. If you still want root and stay on MJ5 ok. If you want the next software fix then don't root yet then try to get the NB4 patch then you can root with Kingo 1.18.

[Q] Not able to install custom recovery in Xperai SP 4.3 .205 Root & BL unlocked

Hi,
I am using Xperia SP, C5302, with Android version: 4.3 and Firmware: 12.1.A.205. I want to install CyanogenMod 11 in my mobile.
Going though different tips and tricks, I was able to root my phone, as well as unlock the bootloader. However, I'm unable to install a custom recovery. It is advised everywhere not to proceed with installing any custom ROM without installing custom recovery.
Currently not able to install CWM recovery in my phone. Also when I tried to boot my phone into recovery, it is not working. Is it because there are no custom recovery installed?
If anyone can tell me how to install the custom recovery in my system, will be very helpful. I've tried installing ROM Manager from Play Store, but it is unable to recognize my device. Also Quick Boot app from Play Store is not able to boot into recovery mode. Also tried using Flashtool and fastboot, not working either. :crying:
Right now, I'm not able to proceed with installing CM11 ROM in my Xperia because I'm afraid I will not be able to boot into recovery mode and hence will not be able to complete the installation and ultimately end up with a bricked phone.
Any help will be greatly appreciated..!!

I've allways thought that a locked bootloader would break your boot to a non-stock kernel. I think I read it from doomlord.
Now I wonder if it only blocks fastboot...
Recently I saw a post about CM10.2 working on locked devices... Now you're saying the same, maybe it started working lately somehow...
Though... Sure you saw that work?
I'm about to relock my device and take my chances, should get to it

Dont wipe system after you flash the ROM. Only wipe cache. If you wipe system you are earasing the ROM.

Help!
Did you end up figuring this out? I've just had the same thing happen to me!

This build is a COD6..
have you folks updated your bootloader and modem???
If your flashing the partial firmware using odin.. then you need to boot directly into recovery and flash the Rom.
Please post a screen shot of "about device" so i can see your baseband..

I'm not really sure what you mean, I'm still relatively new at this.
It wouldn't boot at all, but I managed to install twrp through the recovery. Afterwards I put the rooted stock ROM on the SD card and did a wipe/install from recovery and now it's stuck doing the loop and vibrating twice each time.
I can't figure out how to find that information when I only have access to recovery, it's the Bell version in Canada, SM-N910W8. I had it up to date and just rooted it last night.
Thanks for your quick reply!
Edit: I did change a couple of things with build.prop.editor before it happened, that's what I'm thinking screwed this.

So you have twrp installed..
Ok. Do you have a nandroid back on your ext sd by chance?? If so reboot recovery under advanced wipe sys/data/dal/cache.. then navigate to your ext were your restore is and flash it..
If not follow these steps.[emoji16]
Step #1 download either a stock rom of your choice or something like This
And a copy of the bioshock kernal. If you decide to use the rom i provided the link for. Check the md5 sums from the download source after you download the files to make sure they match. Download them onto your ext sd card.
Step#2 reboot recovery go to wipe advanced and check/ system/data/dalvik/cache/and internal.. ×3
Then factory data reset x3
Then nav to ext sd and flash the rom.
Note: if you flash the link i provided you have to flash the kernel in the same session... READ THE OP..
Note: #2 when you wipe internal your internal sd card will be wiped so if you need to save pics or whatever do so prior..
You can try skipping the internal once but if it loops then you prob should wipe it like i said and flash kernal such as bioshock.
Ok thats it for now please follow and read what i wrote carefully..
And for now stay away from COD6 for now.. unless you understand the procedure... its all about the kernal flashing in the same session before you boot up..[emoji41]
One last thing.. its dangerous to be
"NEW AT THIS" and just start flashing stuff you need to be carefull and read read read.. in your case W8 you need to flash a kernel 90% of the time same setting..

I'm not really sure what you mean, I'm still relatively new at this.
It wouldn't boot at all, but I managed to install twrp through the recovery. Afterwards I put the rooted stock ROM on the SD card and did a wipe/install from recovery and now it's stuck doing the loop and vibrating twice each time.
I can't figure out how to find that information when I only have access to recovery, it's the Bell version in Canada, SM-N910W8. I had it up to date and just rooted it last night.
Thanks for your quick reply!
Edit: I did change a couple of things with build.prop.editor before it happened, that's what I'm thinking screwed this.

And did you happen to back up before making those changes? Anytime you do ANYTHING including sneezing, MAKE A BACKUP!

Hes on W8 so unless im mistakin COD6 bootloader and modem will not work.
He can flash the builds but needs a kern to complete the boot... like bio..
And doesnt need the COD6 firmware..
He prob can flash the rom he wanted he just needs to follow it with the kern before he booted...
