I have just recieved the phone and its driving me nuts. When i switch the wifi on and then try to switch it off it says its switching off but stays like that for next 4 hours and wont switch off! Need to reatart the phone every time. Today battery was full at 10:30 and by 12 was 48% wifi off data off screen brightness at 50% bt off watched 1 minute of 3d video. When tried to dial a number it just stoped and nothing happend so had to restart it again. Its a factory lg handset without simlock or any branding on it. Yesterday had an update 5mb so did it and thats about it. Any ideas?

Try factory reset or pdate your phone using LG Mobile Update. If it will say that you have the lates firmware you emergency mode to update.

It does. Just go to customer support menu and then click on emergency mode , it's the last option to the bottom.
Also the wifi issues are not normal. Try if they will be fixed after reflashing the device. If not then maybe the device is defective. Also the battery drains really fast the first month. That's normal for smartphones and especially for this phone.

Connect the usb cable to the computer.
Shut down your phone and connect it to the usb cable.
Then wait a bit and it will start up by itself.
Shut it down again.
While connected to the USB cable and completely turned off, press the volume + button at the side of the phone and at the same time press the power button.
Wait till you see that the LG mobile tool has found the phone.
The phone screen will be completely black but don't worry about it.
Run the emergency mode menu again and re-type your IMEI.
See if it works that way.

No matter what i do it will not recognize. I have reloaded the driver and i cannot get it to work. I want to go back to stock but can't get started
need a few more details. There are a few threads about this topic already, but if you have AWD launcher or Launcherpro active, Windows will not see the phone through Keis. You have to switch back to the Touchwiz UI and Keis will see the phone.
Hope this helps.
I rooted my phone last week. Then decided to do 2.2 ...when i went to do it my my pc would not recognize the phone. I finally got it to work by selecting mass storage in usb mode. I managed to get 2.2 loaded. Now i want to go back to stock before trying another rom. When i plug the phone to the pc it charges but the pc comes up as not recognizing the phone. When i do try to enter download mode by holding the volume buttons and putting in the usb the phone just boots.
thanks
I think i finally got it...i tried cleaning the contacts and it seems to be working! Sort of....its hit or miss....the other thing...if my phone shuts off the only way i get it on is by holding the volumes and power button and pluggin in a cable....what the heck is that about?

this phone lg optimus 3d (lg su760) just seems dead. it won't turn on, it won't go to recovery mode, i won't show battery charging status, i won't connect to laptop. laptop does make sound like its trying to connect with then phone. but after few attempts it just gave up.
i was in uk, but right now in Pakistan. i showed it to few mobile phone technicians and they said that its BOOT ROM DAMAGED. can anyone please tell me who can i connect this phone to laptop??? i don't know much about ROM, About KDZ or anything. but i think once my phone get connected with pc then i might be able to do something with it.
what do you thinks guys? will i be able to recover my phone or its just gone now..totally dead?? please reply.
At the moment you have no way to recover it by connecting to laptop,you need a new board.
Sorry, search doesn't work right now and i found this thread via google only. Hoping someone can pull magic out of their $$$.
I have an LG Optimus 3D P925G (but using the ThiaiZ ROM for a long time). Yesterday i was going to experiment with another ROM, so i copied some files from the SD to External SD via mass storage, rebooted into recovery and did a backup (CWM), and then forgot i wanted to copy a couple more files, just to be safe. So i rebooted into the phone, connected via mass storage, copied my files and turned the phone off. A bit later, i went to turn the phone on into recovery so that i can flash a new ROM and nothing happened. Phone won't turn on, no screen, nothing!
So here is what i tried, with two separate batteries.
1. Hold down 3D, volume down and power
2. 3d, volume up, power
3. volume down, power
4. volume up, power
5. home, volume up, power
6. home volume down, power
7. Took battery out, held the power button for more than 10 seconds, but the battery back and tried above options
8. All of the above while connected to PC via USB
-Some caused my PC to connect for half a second and go into continuous loops (you hear the PC trying to connect, but half the sound it usually makes, and then again and again...)
-So PC can't see it, ultimately
9. Tried above options with battery out and then putting battery in
I got nothing left to try...any ideas? Magic?
But i am guessing an expensive brick/paperweight is what i have.
Thanks!!!
Follow this step by step.
Install driver.
Use another cable.
Open Windows device manager.
Remove battery.
Insert battery.
Hold vol+.
Insert cable.
If it gets recognized it will show you LG communication port in device manager.
Release vol +.
If you cant see that and all you get is OMAP4430 you probably flashed wrong ROM and your LG can't be repaired with the tools that are available here.
Send from my Xperia Neo V using xda-developers app.
No go. Still get the OMAP, off and on in a continuous loop. The thing is, i didn't install a new ROM yet, i was planning on it but never got there.
Fun (sarcasm).

Pls help - same situation
Pls help! I'm in same situation. Did anyone manage to find a solution?
I am desperate because I need my phone all the time.
I have the same symptoms, and the OMAP device in device manager does the same thing. On/Off/On/Off...and so on..
If I simply plug my phone in, It just goes on/off/on/off ....... it only vibrates shortly when it starts and I can see the LG logo, then it turns off.
Did you enter "S/W update" mode ??(by insert battery while holding vol+)??

First things first. If you have tried all these, start afresh.
uninstall all LG related software, reboot laptop and start again.
search the forums for all related issues, read read read, understand and follow the steps exactly.

Not sure I am right, but I think you should use Sony's update manager (or whatever the name is) to flash the watch, or an other software, but mind if I ask, how did you get into this situation, what was the last thing you did when the watch was working?

Re: Flash F5 Message
I tried to update my smartwatch but it did not updating my watch, for thanks god my watch is working well..
After much cursing and gnashing of teeth, I got the Sony Update Service software to recognize the watch. I noticed that when I powered up my (bricked) SW2, the SONY logo would flash for a split second on the screen before the dreaded "Flash FS" message. So after powering down the watch, I plugged it in to my PC and hit the power button several times quickly. This triggered the windows device manager to successfully recognize the device as a Sony Smartwatch and the update software room it from there. About 10-15 minutes later... my SW2 was working again.

How did you do this? In my case sometimes it recognises it as "SmartWatch 2" using your solution, the Windows (8) installs it's driver and than it sais no device drivers installed in the device manager and neither the PC Companion notices it.
Could you help me somehow please?

To flash it power it on then quickly insert the USB. Should come up with something like a progress bar box. Utility should detect it maybe??
Any luck?
I've got it working by inserting USB just when SONY logo appears. It started normally the watch as if it never happened any FLASH FS screen. But after around 20 seconds of happiness, it froze again but this time I just cannot get it started again. Any other advice?
Thanks

Flash fs problem
please help Flash FS i tried so many time but its still showing Flash Fs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783426&page=8&nocache=1
This can be solution for Flash FS message when SUS is dead
and to get into DFU mode:
2. Turn the watch off.
3. Insert the cable into the watch and than into the USB-port of your computer (it is faster to insert the cable into the computer USB-port than into the watch).
4. Press and hold the watch power key for half a second immediately after you insert the cable into the USB-port (if the charging [in our case displays: Flash FS] begins return to the 2 step).
Hi,
I have a Motorola atrix 2. All of sudden it stopped detecting mobile(sim) network. It was working fine , in the morning when I woke up , when i tried to call it was showing flight moded is on and when i tried to to disable flight mode I could not do it , I did a factory reset , it didnt not resolve the issue. I thought it was sim problem , i changed the sim , that also didnt work. I tried recovery it also did not work. Sometimes it detects network but i could not make any call.Most of the times it doesnt detect network(it shows red plus sign).When i try to search for networks , it lists networks after 3-4 minutes(Vodafone , airtel , idea etc) ,But i fails to register with the network.
COuld you please suggest a solution. Is it hardware or software issue?
Thanks,

There is a file called "radio.img" it's the software part concerned with cell network so probably if the problem came from software it (would) be that file, so please answer this Q first:
have you played and flashed some ROMs and Kernels?? is your phone rooted?
No I have not flashed or played with ROM or Kernel. What I did was my phone was attached to my laptop as USB storage and I removed directly(not safe removal , did not do safe detach). My phone is not rooted , Initially I had Gingerbread(when bought) after that I got official ICS update.

Great...now you need to fxz (it means flash the original Motorola firmware and restore it's initial state)
so here is what you need:
1) The same firmware (that's why I was asking you about system version)...download from here
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=17&file=351
copy it to desktop
2) Motorola Driver
http://www16.zippyshare.com/v/65297309/file.html
install it.
3) RSD Lite (it's the application used to flash)
http://www16.zippyshare.com/v/85618478/file.html
install it.
>>Now charge your battery to 100% that's very important.
>>backup your important info. from contacts to messages..etc.
>>Turn off your phone.
>>Enter Fast-boot mode by pressing (volume up+ volume down + power button) at the same time..the phone will turn on with a menu...press volume down to move the selector to (AB Fast boot) then press volume up to enter that mode.
>>you now should see "Battery OK"
>> Connect your phone to PC with the usb cable and wait to see connection has changed to "USB Connected" in phone
>>open RSD Lite and follow that video instructions:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHaEHjSzvQQ
Caution: Don't ever try to cut the flashing operation or your phone will be completely dead...so it's recommended to disable your antivirus while flashing and other services..just leave your PC alone till RSD Lite finishes the flashing.
It's not hard to fxz but please be careful with every step...... HAPPY FLASHING
My internet is slow , its taking time in downloading the firmware image. I will update you once I complete the process , thank you very much for the kind help.
Flashing was successful but for my bad luck the problem still exists. I think its an hardware issue. Do you have any idea? is it repairable? if repairable what would be the cost? Thank you very much for your support.
Good news ,it started working , i rebooted some 4-5 times after flashing firmware ,it started working now.
Thanks for your support. Thank you very much.
Sorry to say that my phone has gone mad. Now it shows network , but I could not able to make call ,if I call anybody it just gets cut and I am not able to receive any calls. Earlier it worked for some time i received 2 calls and I made 2-3 calls. Now calls are not going and not coming also.

I see that flashing original firmware doesn't help....sorry to say but it's now definitely a hardware problem
I guess that when plugging out the USB cable "specially if you unplug it slowly" some current leakage has reversed back and burned a tiny connections on the board.
actually I don't know the repair cost in service center...it depends on how much damage happened on board.
Note: maybe the battery is part of the problem...if your battery isn't genuine it may lead to that crazy behavior specially when making call or receiving calls as battery is required to raise up it's current to wake up some chips and provide more power to the antenna....if the battery was bad or damaged it can't raise it's power suddenly so system will goes crazy and may restart or freeze...etc
Make sure that your battery is genuine and not too old or that generic Chinese bad batteries as they aren't stable and may cause a current spike "extremely bad for electronics" when moving from charging mode to discharging mode and that's exactly what I think it happened to you.
Thanks. I will try to take it a repair centre , Lets see whether they can fix it. Bad part is Motorola no more provides service for Atrix 2 in India. I have to find someone who has expertise in fixing Atrix 2 problems.

Hi Harish,
Before you go to the service center, try changing your SIM card.
I once had problem with my new MotoZine restarting everytime I clicked a pic. I took it to the service center, they reinstalled OS. That did not work. Then we changed the sim card, and miraculously it worked.
I know its weird, but its worth a try.
Brief introduction of my phone, My phone (Y91) has a power button problem, (I use touchscreen and gestures to turn it on/lock it) Now there was a system update, and I updated it but because of my broken power button/switch, during the update it continuously turned on and off like it was stuck on boot screen. Now I got my phone fixed (power button) but when I tried connecting to my WIFI network, I cant use the Internet at all.
