What exactly were you trying to put on the phone? You don't need a cpu to flash a rom. Where you trying to flash CWM?

I know that if I can flash cwm through the tool I will be ok but can't get my phone into sw mode or download I will try ur suggestions and get back to you thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
It's power & vol down to get into CWM once you've flashed it. Follow the thread given by Waldano. This must be done before flashing any roms.
Is there a download mode for the g2x or is the volume buttons together the only way? Thanks for all the help guys I will post again a little later with a update

If you have already NVFlashed Clockwork Mod Recovery on the phone, you don't need a PC to flash again.
Download a good rom to a microSD card, throw it in the phone, use Clockwork to flash the zip from SD.
Or if you were smart, you would have performed a Nandroid Backup in Recovery before attempting to flash, in which you can just restore your backup and be back where you were at... which then you could download a different rom so the SD card USING the phone and attempt to reflash.
I messed up huge I flashed through rom manager that's why I can't get into cwm the phone wont do anything all it will do is go to the LG screen and the one with the little android Guy and a folder

I have a problem with my sidekick 4g when I try to go into recovery mode it freezes on the boot logo after that I tried charging it to see if nomorepowah would show up but I have to take the battery out for like an hour I've been trying to find the stock recovery and I can't find it I didn't change the recovery either all I tried doing a long time ago is install cwm but now it freezes when I try to go into recovery anybody have an answer to why its doing this?

Might have to odin back. I think its partially the nomoarpower's fault. Its obviously affecting how your booting, and it is a coverup for boot. Try removing it, and if it dosent work, then odin back to stock, then flash whatever you had. This might not be the solution, just trying to help

Download Titanium Backup and try to delete it.
Then install ICS messaging from the market.
I would assume this would work but I haven't tried it so back it up just in case.
After I flashed the unlocked or insecure downloader. I tried to make a nandroid backup and it says that it failed to back up the boot image. Help?

Are you using CWM or ROM Manager? If the answer is CWM, did you use ROM Manager or NVflash?
Also, have you tried a different ROM, or just the same one?

Basically what the first reply was, but wanted to add in so you know,
If you used ROM Manager to do basically anything, you need to NVFlash CWM and than always use CWM to flash anything. ROM Manager does whats called a fake flash of CWM.
And than yes, which ROM(s)?

trying that now....
well i tried flashing stock and it works but when i rebooted after the LG boot Screen the screen is all black and the backlight just keeps flashing on and off... any suggestions?
Search the G2x development forum for Batch Cleanup Tool. Run that, then flash a stock ROM. Boot that ROM once, then try a custom ROM.

I downloaded the cleanup batch and ran it.... proceeded to install the stock ROM and still stuck on a black screen with the backlight flashing on and off. I think I've tried everything to fix it and nothing works....

Which stock ROM are you installing? Have you tried downloading it again, to make sure it's not a bad download?
Also which CWM are you using? if you're using touch, rev ert back to an older version
