[Q] Help for bricked phone - LG Optimus 4X HD

Hi there, I'm aware this forum isn't for support so would like to know where would be the appropriate forum to direct my post!
Basically, I bricked my LG Optimus 4X HD (p880) phone after following the instructions to root my phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818502
Here's what I did:
Followed the instructions in the XDA LG Optimus 4X thread (from the link above) to root my phone
Installed Clockwork Recovery Mod
Tried to restart phone in recovery mode
Phone can't start anymore, and shows the following error message:
[LGE_SECURITY] ERROR: boot image signature
Critical failure: Unable to start kernel
Unrecoverable bottloader error (0x00000002)​
Grateful for any assistance. Thanks!

Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. The best place for your question would be the dedicated LG Optimus 4X HD q&a section, which is here:
Optimus 4X HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
That sub-forum can be found within the Optimus 4X HD device forum here:
LG Optimus 4X HD
I'd suggest you bookmark that page and subscribe to that forum, that way you can find it easily again in future. There's no need to create a new post in the q&a secrion now, we'll simply have this thread moved there for you, so standby, it won't take long.
Good luck!

Thanks! The link to the 3 apps is dead though. Any idea what are the 3 apps so I can download the 3 apps elsewhere? I've managed to download the KDZ file.

Hi, anyone can advise what are the files to download? The original link is dead and I'm unable to find out what software is required to resolve the issue.

[Q] Rooting gingerbread (2.3.4) on lg optimus 2x

Hello, i have an Lg otimus 2x that has gingerbread (2.3.4) and i want to root it because its getting slow and the memory often go below 60mb. I want to root so i can use MinFreeManager and uninstall all those useless LG preinstalled apps.
So, can i root witth superoneclick? And if the rooting fails somehow, will i be able to fix it?
Thanks,
There are two ways of doing this.
First - go here (also available in upper right corner on xda page) and copy/paste this expression (without ") in the box "how to root lg optimus 2x gingerbread" and hit enter and then click first link.
Second - go here and c/p same expression like in first method. Click third link (first two are videos).
You will see that in both ways you will get this.
Then start reading.
Hope that this helps.

Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA
First of all, since you're new to this board please read the Welcome To The LG Optimus Black Section..... (Please Read If You're New)
Also, read the [HOW TO]The Big N00B how-to! since it will answer most of your questions.
Second, if you would have searched you would have found your answer already, but i'll help you (i'm in a good mood today ).
So, for general Rooting look at [Q] How to root P970 Gingerbread V20N it's vor the V20N version but it mostly applies to any version.
Regarding the question (that will follow soon) how to flash the firmware, look at THIS
P.S. if i manage to find a patched V20A i'll post here, for now i only found V20B, V20N , V20E and V20O that are patched and rooted.
I try all root app, and no one work with me, always access denied.
OB 2.3.4 V20a
Please help

All the information required was supplied in the second post - plus there is a Q&A area where you can get help after you've done your homework!

Hi all. It appears there are quite a few stickies now and you need to scroll halfway down the page to find some necessary information. Hence the decision of creating this thread. All stickies except moderation announcements can be found below (without particular order).

Hi mod,
I think the index could do better stickied on the frontpage, since it contains majority of the knowledge base, and new users don't usually realise there's actually an Index thread within the sticky roll-up thread.
My sugguestion.
Both done, thanks :good:

Dear Mod,
Can you put following link into the first post which will indicate how to extract a kdz file into dz and dll file so that the LG flash tool can use it.

This idea was one of the best. To be better, and because XDA gives worldwide support but forum rules demand for English, I think the most skilled on other languages, could create translated text documents of the tutorials to download.
It's just an idea...

Nice idea :good: Perhaps using the Google Document and giving an access to some users to edit it might be a good solution.
I'll sort the stickies later in the evening.
I've closed all unnecessary bootloader unlocking threads as they all don't need to be discussed. One thread is enough for that.
Thanks!
hey @eagleeyetom
haven't seen you @ the IRC channel, so i use this way
could you please add this one to the TUT parts: [TUT] How to use fastboot on our device

EAP-SIM

Hi,
I was wondering if some one could help me out by explaining to me why my P990 doesn't supports the EAP-SIM method??
Is it a ROM issue? a Kernel issue? = Driver issue?; or is it really a hardware issue? and i should consider changing my phone...
I have been looking around and it would seem to me that it is just a software, hence it can be added to different phones.
For example, in France this method is given by the rom provider (FREE) for SG3; people have managed to get the needed files and have patched the SG2 to make it work too with EAP-SIM...
So, would it be possible to make it for the P990 knowing that a ROM exist for the LG optimus L9 here
I mean, can we extract the configuration that is used in this kernel-ROM and apply it on another one?
Thanks for your help and or explanations

Ups... sorry about that.
Maybe if I restate my question it gets more linked to this forum
Can I use the ROM of LG Optimus L9 with my LG Optimus 2x?
Or how can I extract the EAP-SIM information of one and use it in the other one? (is this possible?)
Sorry again about my multiple posting.

If this is a software issue, you should try to request it at CyanogenMod. There's more chance they would implement it than with LG itself. But you would have to root your phone, and change to the CyanogenMod ROM, which is pretty good.
