Help! 4x hd CWM bootloop error! Flashed wrong CWM.

Hello I have an unlocked Lg optimus 4x hd software version 4.1.2 JB. I recently successfully rooted it but CWM said there wasn't one available for my phone on the rom manager app so i found one. I would post a direct link to it but apparently im not allowed to yet.
I realised that this was realised almost a year ago after the fact, this probably is what messed my phone up.
I installed it and ran it, when my phone rebooted it was stuck in a boot-loop. I can still access the default android recovery screen and I tried hard resets and clearing the caches but I'm still stuck on the LG logo. My computer still says that its installing drivers when i plug the phone in but it won't let me do any thing. I have looked around the forums and the solutions i found aren't helping me. Any help would be appreciated.

Adb sideload

Access the android recovery screen, then select adb sideload.
if you can access adb mode, you can use all in one tools.
ALL IN ONE (TOOL)
Try this way.
Good luck

How do I do that. I feel like I've tried it before. CWM didn't load properly on my phone so I cant do anything involving the use of it.

You just need to be able to get in S/W Mode by pressing "Vol- & connect to PC".
For a better flash try to use LGFlash Tool, look here:

great it looks like im nearly there but where you saw three ports active and one actually downloading i only saw one active but it wasn't downloading, i feel as if though it could work i just need a little more help. Sorry if this is wasting your time...

simple, run windows enabler to ON, connect phone in S/W mode, go to device manager -- modems --- LG xxxxx *13 ... and the number is the port ... for me i have 13 port selected .. or you can try one by one ... if one fail ( RED --- FAIL TO OPEN) then try another ...

Thank you everyone!!
It worked thank you guys soo much!!

Hi there,
I flashed the wrong cwm as well on my gf phone. (she's going to kill me)
Anyway, the All-In-One tool does'nt help me. I can perform the root (which is useless, because I cant even boot) but I cannot anything. I think it's because no sd is mounted.
Code:
Choose The Number :-7
Now connect your phone with "Debugging" enabled .
Drücken Sie eine beliebige Taste . . .
Copying files ,, Please wait ...
failed to copy 'O4X_OR_R.img' to '/mnt/sdcard/O4X_OR_R.img': No such file or dir
ectory
sh: cat: /mnt/sdcard/O4X_OR_R.img: No such file or directory
rm failed for /mnt/sdcard/O4X_OR_R.img, No such file or directory
I can't even boot into the S/W mode. I just get a grey (or sometimes blue) screen.
Please help!

try to take the battery out plug the phone with a cable on your computer. Insert battery again. Flash firmware
edit: it seems like your all in one tool doesn't find the image.

Follow instructions found in the internet. I can give you a link but its in german. There is probably an english equivalent here somehwere.

Xperia V 4.3 fastboot...

Having issue running into fastboot mode, my PC detects it as fastboot, but doesn't see my phone. Nothing i can do so i guess it's driver issues. I have BL unlocked, my pc companion says everything is up to date. Installed newest version of flashtool (and the drivers ofc) dunno what else should i try :\ Windows 7 btw..

Got the message driver installed successfully now, but still my PC wont detect device even in CMD with ADB on, i get note no device connected when i check adb devices :\ Was long time a go since i installed ADB (was total newb then) , could it be something with ADB drivers?

I somewhat doubt that, you are flashing new ones. Did you flash the wrong rom?

TBH i tried nordic, got error (flashing aborted), global-LTE same ****. Using unbranded Swedis firmware atm (all flashing done through flashtool, i had no problems at all when i flashed it 1st time). I'm not very experienced with flashing, but i guess the FWs i tired to flash should work?
Here are infos:
Phone software version: 1264-2336_9.2.A.0.295
generic-user
Customization Version: 1268-5895_R4J
Active Customization:1268-5895_R4J
S1 Boot version:1264-2289 R11A023
Not sure if i made some nubish mistake (in be4 i did ^_^) i guess i can only use this customization version? Also bootloader unlocked. I've even got note that windows installed fastboot drivers and my PC sees my phone as Sony SA0106 Adb interface driver, but only when plugged in normally, in fastboot my PC just doesn't want to detect my phone :\ Feeling so handicapped

No I doubt it, you are flashing a new firmware each time. You could try a 4.1 .ftf, but if a 4.3 doesn't work, I don't see what that is going to change. Unless of course your .ftf file is corrupt, in which case I would try another mirror. So I would definitely try downloading the .ftf again or check that the md5 sums match. Because the fact that flashtool aborts is quite puzzling unless you have done some serious damage. But I doubt that too if you flashed the correct rom. You could also try updating flashtool, you might have some incomplete packages(?)
Edit: Sorry, just realised I replied to your last post twice, I'll read this one now. xD

Righto, so if your computer detects adb drivers, then in a terminal/command prompt, type 'adb devices' and you should get the response "List of devices: SA0106'. It sounds to me that it is nothing to do with the drivers or the images you flash. You could of course try flashing a rom in through adb and fastboot. Though as this is somewhat hard to do and flashtool should definitely fix it, I think it stil could be an issue with how you are flashing the images. So just to confirm, you select flashmode on the computer and when prompted, you put your phone in 'flashmode' as opposed to 'fastboot' mode? Because they are for quite different things, so I would check that the button that you are pushing to start flashing is in fact the one appropriate for what you are trying to do. Could you also copy in the log of what is happening when the flashing fails? I hope I can help you.
Also, I don't know if this will apply to your device, but are you in MTP or MSC mode? If this is applicable, you will find out in Settings>Xperia>Connectivity>Usb connection mode. Should be in MSC, but if you can't find it, don't worry. I don't have an Xperia V, you see.

I'll try uninstalling flashtool and installing it again today after work (have the latest version currently). Well one of the roms i DLed was definetly the correct one, coz i have it installed (it's a bit buggy so i wanned to try install some other FW). Luckily we might get .299 soon but anyway, my ADB won't detect my phone in fastboot, even when i try with adb devices i just get empty space it just won't detect it.Yeah ofc i went into flashmode for flashing Not sure about MSC/MTP mode really, i guess it has something to do with mass storage? Anyway flashing is least problem for me now, untill .299 comes out at least But this **** with PC not detecting my device as fastboot is killing me :\

MTP currently, shaould i change it to MSC?

Didn't work -_- dunno woot to do, reinstalled everything ADB drivers are installed can't get into bloody fast boot

Tried flashing the same FW i have flashed on my phone, afaik nothing has changed but i always get that aborted message now and just can't flash..

Okay, yes, you should definitely be in MSC mode as opposed to MTP. And when you flash firmwares, you are attempting to get into flashmode as opposed to fastboot. So just to check, you are holding down the volume down when your phone is off when plugging into your computer to begin flashing? And also could you just copy a bit of the log from when flashing fails please?

Now the nordic version worked for me, nothing changed i had the same error after switching to MSC yesterday... I think it was my PC having to much **** running at the momment of flashing or something :\ Will see if fastboot works later on today, flashing is still going on atm but i gotta run

You do have to be in MSC mode though for flashmode. Okay I'm glad that it worked. You should be able to root that now then, and just install CWM and quickly flash a rom haha. I hope I have helped.

You may need to install the Sammy Drivers. If you install Kies 3 it will do it for you.

I have installed the latest Samsung drivers tried 3 or 4 different cables still no luck.

Well your best bet would be an att service center or Samsung experience booth at best buy

Back when our phones had jellybean, I did the exact same thing. I deleted my stock rom without installing a replacement. BIG NO NO!
Anyway, to get your phone recognized, I would install kies 3, then tools > reinstall device driver. Do this with the phone connected in download mode.
Next I would use the files found here to reinstall the stock kk rom using Odin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/general/n900aucucnc2-odin-files-t2838117
There is a guide on YouTube entitled "AT&T Note 3 MLG Restore Part 1" that should walk you through the process.
Please let me know if this helped.
Edit: I noticed that my fellow XDA members have recommended the same thing (except for telling kies to reinstall the drivers) As a last ditch effort, I would try a different pc running a different operating system (especially if you're using Windows 8).

I took this from thedroidguy dot com.
"First Solution: This is the recommended way to make any Samsung device, in this case the Galaxy Note 3, get detected by the computer without a problem: download and install KIES. Depending on your connection, the download process may take several minutes to complete but the installation won’t take a minute. Installing KIES into your computer mean installing all necessary USB drivers as well. You can download KIES from here.
Second Solution: If you’ve already installed the KIES into your computer and it still refuses to detect the phone, reboot it and try again. If the problem persists, uninstall KIES, reboot the computer and plug the phone in. Let the computer detect the device as a general storage then install KIES again. This time, it would work.
Third Solution: If you don’t want to install KIES to your computer, you can download just the drivers. They are packed into one package and compressed to only have around 25 megabytes. You can find the download link from here.
Fourth Solution: There is also what they call the universal ADB driver that would make any Android device detectable by the computer once it’s installed. The driver was built by clockworkmod team and can be downloaded from their website."

Well if the phone is in download mode, and Odin is up to date, then it has to be a driver issue. My pc always acts like it's recognizing my devices, but then it screws with the drivers to where nothing works.

Thanks for all the help I don't know what will work but I will continue to try everyone's advice and hopefully something works for me. At this time I can only use the for rom slots in safe strap. Phone works great other than I am unable to use full storage space of the note 3

It might be too late to help but i had to uninstall all the drivers from the PC then put my phone in download mode, then plug it in to the pc and it would install the drive and work maybe?
Or pull your sd card our and copy over a rom to it then put it back in and boot and flash?

ADB can't find phone

Greetings,
Yesterday i tried to flash twrp + havoc os, like on my previous phone, but i got stuck right on the begining when ADB says the device wasn't found, I have the phone unlocked, usb debugging allowed, and i can access phones internal storage from windows just fine, entered fastboot and still nothing.
Weird thing is after i entered fastboot the Device Manager changed the name of phone to just "Android"
and driver failed to install, then i tried to search the driver with windows built in driver search, and driver was sucesfully installed, but the phone still can't be found by ADB. Really don't know which can be the cause. I have win 7 by the way. Hope somebody can help me with my problem, i appreciate any tips.
Thanks and have a great weekend

Sounds like the fastboot drivers are missing. I'm sure you can find the drivers if you google it or just download the mi flash tool and install the drivers from there. Test the type c as well maybe the cable has the problem (try to use the official one), test it from a different usb, or an other PC or laptop if you have any.
I had similar issues before using mi flash tool, I tried on my other laptop and was working fine.

Thank you for your advice, it was due to drivers, but now im struggling with some very weird problem, i managed to flash twrp, and installed havoc (later tried lineage) succesfully, but when i boot the phone, it boots into fastboot instead of android for some reason, i tried installing the rom several times, everytime succesfully, deleted dalvik cache and so on.. Its just booting to fastboot for some reason.
