Hello,
I just got my new Optimus 2x in.
After 2 days using it and draining a lot of battery life installing apps and getting the phone the way I liked it.
The LG apps installed on it started to annoy me bigtime.
So i did the most respectfull thing every tweaker does, i rooted the phone.
Installed the Titanium Backup software and started deleting LG apps.
The deleting part went perfect, then my screen turned black and the only thing working was the kill andriod app software on top.
So i pulled the battery and rebooted, nothing.... the phone got stuck at the LG logo.
Did a Hard reset Volume down + the power button.
It started the installation --> google login --> setting up extra account --> and then got the error about a wizard having problems.
So i guess my rom is corrupt.
Tried updating trough the LG software - emergency and got the message "not possible anymore".
Tried updating trough KDZ firmware update tool but it can not find the phone*.
*Downloaded the original firmware from a thread located here.
Does anybody know how to get in emergency mode so i can try different things.
Or maybe other options i could consider?
If not i'd might considering sending it in for warranty.
But it boots so there must be a way to get things working again.
Thx i appreciate getting all the help and ideas.
Im sorry to hear about your problem
Hope u can fix it
But may i ask how do u root it? I try z4root but no use...

I rooted it with superoneclick.
--small update--
If i skip the setup part after my google login, i can force stop the wizard error.
But it does not go into android itself, i get the top bar but thats it.
The LG software recocgnizes my phone but says it's OK and it does not need a update.
Wait for android 2.2.3?
That might do the trick, but then i might have to wait more than 2 weeks
1.Turn the power off. If your LG Optimus 2X is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
2.Hold the Home and Volume Down button
3.Press and hold the Power button until the device turns on
4.Follow the on-screen instructions to reset your device
That's the only option, on this time.
Tried this.
It says S/W Upgrade
Please wait
while upgrading...
and then nothing.
Try boot your phone to android then connect it to pc and run adb shell if shell working put all apk,s from rom dump here.
You have to copy all files to /system/app.
I'll give it a try tomorrow, have to get to work in like 3 hours =)
Im done for today.
Actually, if you get the notification bar, Android is working.
Sounds like you just deleted the Launcher, did you replace it?
If not, adb install and new launcher and you'll be good to go. Although you'll want one on your system partition too!
Have a look in the "Safe to remove" apps thread.
That's it, that's the one i accidently removed.
Any idea how to put it back on the phone?
As described above your post, trough ADB shell?
Can someone post LGLauncher in this thread?

Download here LGHome
Thanks i downloaded it.
But the thing is i can't run adb it gives me the error: device not loaded.
Tried installing the google usb drivers, gives me a no can do.
Another thing i figured out is this: Installing LG PC Suite IV.
It does give me the device connected, but i can not update.
* Can sync contacts
* Can sync Favourites
* Can sync Memo's
But no update (because it's not out yet)
Isn't there a way to fool the suite there is an update but in fact it's just the old firmware and replacing it (making it a repair).
This Thread is discussing the same problem as i am, btw
Fixed!
Obtained the LGLauncher.apk and emailed it to my google account!
Got it out of the above link i posted.

as i said in the other thread you should use root explorer to copu the launcher to /system/app
if you dont it will be gone again if you ever factory reset.
And next time dont delete stuff... just freez it from titanium... Frozen apps are gone (cant be started by the system or seen in launcher) but you get them all back if you factory reset (so no risk of bricking)
OK... we dont get the few megs of free space by freezing... but that is not really an issue on this phone.
I already read some other threads with the same name but nothing really like my problem.
I inserted another person's sim card and after i turned on the phone it started giving me "Sorry! The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly... Force Close. "
But its showing up all the time, one after another. I press Force Close and then another pops up. I can';t even navigate in my phone, i can't do anything but turn it off.
Basiclly i am stuck with 400 euro, phone that just gives errors and is totally unusable.
My phone has stock software, not rooted.
When I got the phone I was so happy...and soon the bsod problems started and I was forced to buy a new one (I see what you did there LG) - but i chose Sony Ericsson this time.
Try to root your phone and install a Clockwork Recovery. Then from the Advanced menu in the recovery choose Fix permissions. Restart the phone and see if it is fixed. If it isn't just flash a custom ROM. This will probably do the job.
This might be a hardware problem or a software problem. Since you didn't root the device you can just go back to the store and ask them to repair it or send it to LG or whatever they can do (because you still have your warranty... right?). Why didn't you go back to the store in the first place?

The problem is after i click on Force Close, it gives me another error too fast and i can't click on anything(I can't really install or use any app). Its like windows errors when you get one error like thousand times and you keep on clicking and clicking and there's no end.
Restarting the phone does nothing.
And yes I already talked with support and Im going to give it back for repair. I don't think its a hardware problem, its the crappy software LG made. I didn't send it back because I could live with 3-4 bsod per week, but now that... Plus im from Bulgaria and the user above knows how long it takes to get your phone back
Okay. Then, try these steps. You don't need to install anything on your phone. You will install a new stock firmware using smartflash. I think this is the only way to fix your phone in a situation like this. Follow the steps:
1. Download Smartflash and its drivers from here and after that install the drivers.
2. Now choose a firmware from here and download it.
3. Run the SmartFlashTool_P990.exe executable.
4. Turn off the phone, remove battery, plug USB in and hold the Power + Volume down keys until you see the software update message - the COM ports field in the SmartFlash program will be filled in automatically
5. Now follow this image:
There is a video lesson too.

Всичко това се надявам да оправи проблема ти. След като инсталираш стоковия ROM и всичко е успешно, ако ти се занимава си сложи някой от последните GR Leak Custom-и. Успех
Same Problem
Hi, I have the same problem on my Samsung SGT5830(Galaxy ACE), but it pups up ones or twice, and stop puping up... My phone after that, working whitout problems... I can receive calls, sms, mms. Also I can call, send sms, mms... I can connect on WiFi, GPS is working too... What is a problem? What can I do? How to do it?
Yes do what gkostadinov said and that will fix your phone back to stock, then root and flash clockworkmod recovery you can use the clockworkmod app from android market to do this once you have rooted.
The pick a nice fast custom rom and profit.

Id suggest using the samsung pc studio(I dont know if it does but there should be some support on updating the phone software) to flash stock rom. Or flash a custom rom if you prefer. If you are able to use the phone and click on the screen then its not a problem to do so.
This is your forum - http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1167
I think you will find all the information on rooting, flashing and so on.
My problem was different as my phone was basically unable to do anything.
I had it returned to service as I didnt saw gkostadinov reply on time.
Same happened for me some time back. It was caused by google+. try uninstalling and re-installing the google+ app from the market.
I once used hp kernel rc11 and got the same issues. I just reflashed it with the stable version (sr2). Problem solved.
I get this issue when ever I try to toggle between 2G/3g OR toggle data. I am on the latest Cm7 nightly and recently flashed vadonka's 32M_S kernel . This problem occurred some times randomly while on the Cm7 kernel but now it happens almost all the time when I toggle 2G/3G . @vadonka: I can help you with the logs if you wish to look into this
same prroblem in lg optimus l3 e400
i rooted my phone and installed annobox11 then it was working very good from 3-4months from yesterday my battey got low and turned off when i tuurned itt on after charging it is continuesly saying ''unfortunately process com.android.phone has stopped'' pls help me i again reinstalled rom but now also same problem
reinstal rom
Please help me guys, I have no one else to turn to. My parents are gonna kill me if they find out what I did to my phone.
So my phone accidentally fell at school with the bluetooth still on.So I put the battery pack, power it on, but then it started to go on a boot loop i.e.
Sony logo-->Xperia Logo-->color animation-->black screen. But after 3-4 hours, it managed to do a complete boot! But I noticed that the bluetooth wasnt turning on. So stupid me, I restarted the device, then it started to go on a boot loop again. I got home and I tried it a couple of times more with the power and volume rocker combinations... didnt work either.
I even started using pc companion. didnt work (kept on doing the same thing
SUS --> same thing
NOW: I tried it using a different computer so I went to an internet shop and downloaded pcc and sus. I started pc companion... but halfway through the download... MY PHONE RAN OUT OF BATTERY and didnt finish the update. :'( Now, whenever I'm booting the phone, I only get the Sony logo and A TRIANGLE WITH AN EXCLAMATION MARK AND A PHONE UNDERNEATH.....
PLEASE HELP ME! My Phone is a Sony Xperia TX Lt29
Last Version before the crash: JB 4.1.2
No root (Noob here)
please... please. i dont know what to do. thank you in advance to anyone who can help me
calm down.
Charge the phone until it is fully charged.
Download PCCompanion and do a fresh install of it.
Run PCCompanion and choose software update.
Use the option to repair your phone, then follow the instructions.
Let us know how you get on
PS
This will only do a software repair, if something broke because you dropped it (Which it sounds like) you are going to have to come clean and tell your parents to get it fixed.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY!!! really thank you :'(
I already did something with the phone because I've been doing a lot of searching on the net lately...
I reinstalled the software using Sony Update Service (SUS) and it booted normally! (but sadly it was only during the FIRST BOOT UP) when I turned off the phone to re insert the sim card and micro sd, It started doing it again... but then, after 6 or 7 tries, it managed to skip past the sony logo-->xperia--> logo-->color animation? and do another complete boot
Now I decided to go to settings and do a complete factory reset cause I thought it would fix everything... but it didn't. It started doing the same thing, and I had to give it 10 or 12 tries before eventually booting up again. When it booted up normally, I was even able to play music with it and change the settings like brightness, volumes, equalizers, and even arrange widgets!
SITUATION NOW:I turn on the Wi-fi and it's in a boot loop again and I'm charging the phone up to 100%
(i did the vol.up vol down power combination before charging)
gregbradley, is it because of our slow internet connection??? (it took me like 4 nerve racking hours to finish the update) but sus was able to complete the download and install the software... what the f*ck is wrong with my phone (((( ohgod
AND:
I'll follow your instructions when the charge is complete...... and I'll be back to you with the results.God I hope this works.Thank you again.
Have you tried only partially flashing part of an ftf file. I know when my phone was on the brink of death I discovered that if I only flashed part of an ftf using flashtool that it would work. I think I would check everything that has exclude (ie: Exclude System) and it would work for me. Its not the end of the world though as the phone does work. Just a bootloop. If you can get it into flash mode then just exclude everything except System, Kernel, and baseband if I'm not mistaken.

Thank you for the reply man '^^
um... to tell you the truth, I have no idea how to partially flash a tft file, let alone flashing. O_O (see how noob i am?) its saddening. So am I in the point right now where my phone's problem is unsolvable via pc companion or sony update service??? Plus I've been doing some searching here on xda and I saw this thread about xperia TX users updating to version b 167 and that their bootloaders are now locked.
This is what my phone is exactly doing whenever I try to boot it up:
Sony Logo---->Xperia Logo----> Color waves animation?---> FREEZE-->black screen then the Sony Logo again.
Whenever I try to boot up for the 2nd time this happens:
Sony Logo----> Black Screen---> Phone turns off---> Sony Logo again
(((
You have flashtool yes? If you load up like you're going to flash a ftf file. Once you click to load up the ftf file it'll pull a menu where you pick what you want to flash. On the right side of flashtool that's where the exclude part is. That's where you have to check the *exclude option. The same thing happened to me when I accidentally flashed a T cm10 rom on my phone. I had to partially flash a ftf file to get it to boot. It should work but since you're not familiar with flashtool its going to make it a bit harder for you in the end. :/

just let it plug in with the charger and keep your phone on for day, usually that will fix it after a few hours with that logo running
Use a battery charger, charge for at least half the entire batt and then follow the thread on flashing, download some files while charging to minimize downtime

Hey guys...... ))))
First and foremost, thank you for all your replies.. really helped me a lot (
It's okay now guys! '^^ I re installed the software via Sony Update Service and it worked. At first I thought the phone was a goner cause it didn't manage to do a complete boot right after the installation. (Phone was stuck on the Sony Logo) But then the next morning, I tried it again and it worked!!
BUT: What I fear now is that the phone might suddenly crash again if I turn on the WI-FI (just like what happened in my previous attempts) If the phone crashes, I fear that the phone would start going on a boot loop again.So basically, I'm just using the phone for media purposes only i.e. Walkman, Gallery,Camera, Movies.
Any thoughts on this, cool, awesome people of xda? '^^ (cant update my apps and google now f*ck)
just.. sad. I miss Flipboard,Modern Combat 4, My Daddy Was a Thief, Real Racing 3, DEAD SPACE (((
one question...
Did something broke inside my phone when it fell?? If yes... WHAT EXACTLY IS IT?? why is it behaving this way??? Why does it keep on boot looping??? should I go and let an expert open it????

Ok.
first off, Hii!! this is my first ever time writing on XDA.
Any way, i know this is not a new issue.. but my ATIV S is rebooting every 5 seconds after the 8.1 update via preview for developers.....
i did a lot of digging before writing here and found this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2718023
I followed the instructions and flashed the GT-I8750_DXBMJ1_R_signed ROM along side the GT-I8750_VJALL3_P csc (this is the only combination that gave me some results.
After flashing, my phone did manage to boot up finally but with a twist. Trying to restart the phone sends me back to the boot loop forcing me to reflash everything again.
i tried the tip from the thread to download the preview for developers app and try to update the phone again (claiming it will resolve the issue) but as soon as the phone goes to reboot before the update the boot loop comes back and we're back to squire one.... so i'm kinda stuck.... is there any kind of FIX i can try to help me sad situation? :crying::crying::crying::crying:
I've had a lot of issues with my Ativ S as well.
Your rebooting issue seems recognizable, maybe this thread will help : https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/F...ime-after-wp-81-update?forum=winphoneosissues
Anyway, I'm on the latest Developer Preview update, my Firmware version is : 2424.14.9.3
It seems the phone is much more stable now, however i'm only using this phone for development, there is no sim card present anymore.
Switched to a new Nokia for my main device.
Advice : If you want a decent Windows Phone, buy a Nokia, not a Samsung or HTC.
Thank you for the reply!
i did some more digging and found that flashing the GDR2 FW 2424 actually helps. after that the is a need to update the phone to the official GDR3 update in the phone updater in settings. i am trying that as we speak and really hope it will work
BTW this ATIV S is my backup phone and not my daily driver (i use a Galaxy s4) i just wanna fix it up to use as my work phone. my trust in windows phone is gone for now XD
EDIT: OK, so i followed the thread and applied the instructions...
at first, i flashed the GDR2 official ROM with the instructed csc file and everything booted up well. at this point they say that if the phone is to be restarted the boot loop will come back (it did when i tested it)
afterwards, i installed the preview for developers app and started updating to the official GDR3 update as instructed. it finished up and booted up well. the next step was to update to 8.1... i did and at first it worked well but as soon as i disconnected the USB cable, the loop returned again. (if i connect the USB cable back it's booting up normally)
BTW i tried doing it all from scratch and noticed that in every step of the process, if i disconnect the cable the loop come's back and disappears as soon as i plug it back in... anyone has any idea what to do next?

Sounds like you just messed around with it too much..i did this many times too! Maybe contact Huawei support?
I am on stock software and do not have this problem. It must be a hardware issue I assume.
