Hi, I'm in need of some help, I got tired of waiting for the gingerbread update, so I decided to install cyanogenmod 7, I rooted my phonne no problem there, then tried to install cyanogen and now my phone is stuck on the Lg logo, what I'm asking if someone knows how to unbrick a phone, or if Lg can provide me with some links, there is a lot of info on the internet but none for my phone, I heard it can be done with NVflash or Smartflash but I'm not sure how to do it, I live in Canada my phone is the LG Optimus 2x LG-P999 V11H with Wind Mobile, thanks in advanced.
This is the P990 (O2X) forum...
Of you get over to the guys at P999 (G2X) they might help you

As HerrKuk said you need to head over to the G2X forum.
But if you can load a ROM onto your SD card then put on cyanogen mode for the G2X and flash that through CWM and in theory you should be ok.
I think you installed the P990 rom on P999 and that might have bricked the phone !!!

Uh... this is the g2x forum.
You say your phone is the optimums 2x (O2X), yet you say your model is the p999 (which is the G2X), so which is it?
Plus, if you can boot into recovery than you are not bricked. I agree with the post above to.

He's right, if you flashed that rom via recovery, just download a rom for your correct phone model onto your memory card and flash the rom the same way you did the first time through recovery.
My understanding is the partitions are set up differently on the P990 vs P999. There is thread somewhere about it. Flashing the wrong rom is reversible, but there are some steps involved.
Search the developers forum.

Me understanding if u flash a p990 rom onto a p999 phone u lose the baseband .... don't think they ever found a fix though
e
But try to boot into recovery assuming u flashed a custom recovery.... if u haven't maybe try using the recovery flasher in the g2x forum assuming its a p999 u have... if not well search n c if the p990 recovery can b flashed the same.
Good luck n keep us posted

Try this if nothing is working!!!!
Just follow the steps and install the stock ROM for P999 using smart flash !!!
If you have flashed ur device with some other device's ROM then u can't get into CWM if u r able to get into CWM recovery then try and install some other ROM for P999!!!
Note:- Flash done using using SmartFlash will remove the root and CWM as well.
So after flashing u need to again root ur device and install CWM if u want to be the root user else enjoy stock ROM!!

Same thing happened to me.
It's because when you use CWM you're supposed to flash CM7 twice... but nobody tells you that until you're bricked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1180331
this saved my phone.
but it also loaded T-Mo stock 2.3.3 which cannot be rooted at the moment.

If u want to root ur device and install a custom rom then flash ur device to 2.2.x and then root and then install the any custom rom!!!
I didn't like the stock rom 2.3.3 due to memory and battery issue so switch back to CM7.1 !!!!

can I return it to Tmobile and get a new one? Or do I have to try and unbrick it myself... The bad thing was that I was already In stock for everything and it still bricked it !!!
If you used the LG update tool you have to send it to LG for replacement. Not sure with the ota who takes responsibility.

I explain every things, I installed the CM7 and realized there is no baseband on the phone then I restored the phone to backup that I've made but the phone didn't come up.
Then I found that thread to how to flash the baseband, and I flashed to V20C_00 and the phone came up but it says "No Network"!
Anybody could help me !?
Please, thanks.

Edit-read whole thread this time lol-..a previous post asked which CM7 you installed because cm7 for p925 used froyo baseband while cm7 for p920 used gingerbread baseband..you are using wrong combination.
Now that you flashed the v20c download getril from market..it will tell u which baseband you are on.
That way you know for sure..if it shows v20c you need either different kernel or different baseband for your area.

I didn't originally backup my froyo so I downloaded a froyo ROM but it says something about it not being able to run the amend script or something.
I have my phone running on the unofficial cyanogen mod 10.
Any help would be appreciated

Yes i was trying to go back to the stock froyo because the only roms i can find for the lg p500-509 would be the cm7 and cm10. I have problems with both of them not working correctly so i'm trying to go back to the stock rom cause when i first rommed my phone i thought i set a restore but i did not
Use this to download the original LG software for your device, then use this to flash it.
i have tried to search in the forums and google and could not find a original version of froyo for ROGERS P925G (VERY IMPORTANT)
why? because i have tried flashing v21e and the phone is not usable, tried ICS from xsball its reallly cool but phone or internet doesnt work... so i found a original GB 2.3.5 with v20e in it (WITH GHOST CALLS !!!)
now i want to put back the original froyo but there is nothing that i could find.
i need a bin file for use with LG FLASH TOOL , it is the only way to flash something on this stupid rogers phone!!
anyone have any clues?
YES I SEARCHED THE FORUMS BEFORE !
thx

I am using 21e on my rogers P925G, working very well.
i use lgfkashtools
its the only method that worked for me at this moment and someone gave me a kdz to bin converter so im gonna try again someday
now my problem is that im trying to root using megatron but it doesnt work.... hmmm cause im ****in tired of losing all my games data!!!
Since Wind names the G2x as 2x, I was confused and used the 2x AOI to flash/partition my phone. It was working well until I installed a 4.2.2 rom and I had not mobile network. Now when I try to flash 2.2 roms, it is just stuck at the logo screen.
When I attempt to flash back to the stock recovery through NVFlash, it gives me a 14 nvflash error. I've tried using the samsung support tools, but since I can't load into a ROM, it says phone is not connected.
Not sure what to do now, I just want to load the stock rom or any rom that will allow the phone to connect to the WIND network. Would something like this work?:
