If I remember correctly, you have to be quick to install the driver when connecting the phone to your computer.

Did you format the SD card with CM7?
If you did that, you can send it right away for the tech support.

Please, get in your correct device section.

This issue was thoroughly discussed at another thread, and the only way users found to solve it was to deliver it to LG for a new board.
The sd format under CM7 issue, I mean.

I had this happen to me all the I apparently pressed reboot into bootloader by accident and my phone turned off and never turned back on. I was also running cyanogen mod. I tried everything but nothing worked it didn't even turn on so I just went to att and they sent me a new phone.

I will send it to lg to fix then, thanks

I dont think it is possible to brick the optimus 3d. The issue of not being able to reflash may be due to driver conflicts/combo of windows 7 etc.
Run device manager. Expand the ports and usb serial bus controllers
Take out battery of optimus 3d
hold down volume up and while holding up, insert cable.
There should be the omap 4430 popping up for a few seconds
Also during this process, the other usb drivers for the phone should be activated and displayed if they were previously installed. If not, then it should start searching for the drivers and update.
Insert battery
If there are issues with drivers updating, try another pc and install the lg drivers from scratch using windows xp.
Its not required to install the omap 4430 driver to flash a rom
You can then use the official lg recovery tool, enter your imei and it will download and install the stock rom
There are other methods on flashing using kdz files (a good tutorial is available somewhere in this forum) you would need to block the lg updater from checking however

very serious problem with my 3d optimus omap 4430

Hi, I have a lg 3d optimus flashee it wrong and now not even get the lg logo, the computer detects it as I omap 4430 but I installed the drivers, I followed step by step this thread http://forum .xda-developers.com/showpost.php? p = 17177547 & postcount = 2 but I can not install the driver omap 4430, the only solution is to solder? as I do if I have no soldering tools here needed? someone could take a hand?

anyone?

Dude don't do anything drastic. Is imap flashing on and off when you connect. Many have problems with getting into download mode. You have to do it just right.

the easiest way is to just download the software update LGMobile support tool
http://www.lg.com/uk/support/mc-support/mobile-phone-support.jsp
launch the software. Take out battery, attach usb to pc, then hold volume up and power at same time, the software will see phone, select customer support then recovery or something like this – type IMEI number and then software will just re download and flash the phone to repair. the phone will have power for the flashing via the usb. when it finished just re attach battery and turn phone on.

If omap4430 keeps connecting and disconnecting,neither lg flashtoor nor lg mobile updater will help in this case.
You need to find a 2nd stage bootloader for the phone or see if LG agrees to repair it.
btw I'm in the same boat

Thread will be moved. Based on the fact it's not:
A ROM [X]
Mod [X]
Kernel [X]
Thank you for your compliance, hope you get your phone working.

If someone could modify the omapflash tool for o3d,the problem would be resolved.

thanks for all reponses, and and how could solder the USB cable? what tools I need or where I could do?

if it keeps connecting and the disconneting try this. attach usb cable to PHONE only then take your battery out, then put battery back in and quickly press volume up button and then attach usb cable to PC. keep hold of volume up button all time dont let go and install all drivers omap, usb driver etc.
hope it helps

what did you flash to your phone that caused brick?

Same problem here. I sent it back to LG, as the phone is in warranty, but if there is a solution, I wish to know it, in order to avoid sending again the phone to LG if the problem repeats... hehe...

I have the same problem........i bought this phone long time ago and i just found it while cleaning my room........i thought that maybe i should update it since its still running Gingerbread.....i tried almost everything but nothing seems to be working...omapboot is not working, lg flashtool is not working...the phone is not showing any signs of life.....the only time it responds is when i connect it to my pc and it shows up as OMAP4430 TI Board.....
HELP NEEDED, I dont want to loose this phone

A little help please..

Well, I'm having a bit of trouble with my phone now..
I tried to reflash XBSall's original ICS using the LGFlash Tool, and after the flashing process, I can't seem to turn on my phone at all.
I get an error that I hadn't encountered when I first flashed ICS onto my phone. You can see the error in the screenshot I have uploaded [Error Screen.JPG]
If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, that would be great. I am still able to boot into the S/W flash thing (which I also have in my attachments, it's number 1 of the images[DSC_0029.jpg] )
Thanks for the help, XDA. In the meantime, I'll see what else I can do.
I have created a thread about this in the Thrill4G forums, but I know that this forum is more active, so I posted it here as well in order to (hopefully) get more responses. Sorry if this is considered a spam.

Can you boot into recovery? If so, wipe everything and try again.
Are you sure you did all of the steps in the tutorial right?
Did you install the OMAP4430 driver?
Also, did you change the port of the LGE CDMA USB SERIAL PORT to com41 in your device manager?

I cannot boot into any recovery. Heck, my phone won't even show the LG Logo when I hold the power button.
I did all the steps right (I've even posted a tutorial that has helped a few others to do this, which is pretty ironic), and installed OMAP4430 drivers, AND changed the port to com41.
Thanks for the luck though. I sure am gonna need it.

So you can't go into download mode? Does your PC recognize the phone when its plugged in?

Nope, I can't seem to get into download mode. The only thing that works right now is that S/W [insert Asian characters here] screen.

That s/w screen is similar (but not the same) as the one I get in download mode. I just checked again and I get a black background, 2 arrows making a circle and underneath it says S/W followed by some Korean.
Have you tried plugging in your USB and opening device manager to see if its recognised?

Yes, the device is recognized when in the S/W screen. I was able to change the port to com41 as well, so I could try to flash some .bin files with the Android system, because currently all it's able to do is erase the partitions, and not actually write anything to it.
It's also worth noting that at one point, I got Gingerbread to work. But, me being stupid, I tried to reinstall ICS, and the whole thing broke down on me. HOWEVER, when I was in Gingerbread, it told me my internal memory was corrupted. Would this make any issues when I try to reflash things?

I'm not very experienced at this but a corrupt internal memory doesn't sound healthy. All you can do is try to flash a ROM and hope for the best.

Already tried flashing a few, nothing seems to go past that OMAP error I keep getting.
Thanks for the try though.

Your internal memory is not corrupted , you just didn't format your Internal SD space when you came back to Gingerbread thats why you had that message.
So thats not the issue...
Actually from what you describe so far your phone is OK.
If nobody can help you fix it until next weekend when i 'll check XDA again i 'll show you how to fix it. (unless i m too busy)

Ok. Thank you XBSall. Your help is very, VERY much appreciated.

Try to put the batterry out and in when u re connecting the phone to your computer and uninstall drivers and install it again and read the describtion again and try every things again ...
I had the same problem but i try and try.. then i get it

Samsung SL I9003

Hi all,
Please help... I tried to flash my SL I9003 and somehow the connection broke in between.
Now the mobile doesnt power on and when connected to the laptop, I just see the processor getting recognized and then disappears. within 2 seconds.
I tried with USB Jig but nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Please help. I dont want to loose this phone dead.

Does Odin recognize the phone? I mean, with Odin on, press volume down + power, connect it to the laptop and see if the phone goes into download mode so Odin could recognize it (COM status shown)
Hope this helps

take out the battery. put back in and get into download mode if possible. if not, to the service center you should bring it..

your username 9000
you are sure that you are in the right section ?
If not you COME to burn your motherboard
The only solution, samsung service center with your operator
If longer supported you still have to flash the board with a Jtag repair tools Professional equipment
You shook minimum 60 € without success if really toasted your motherboard
Sincerely ...

Thank you all for ur suggestions.
@kralin, the phone doesnt get recognized using the odin. doesnt startup and no lights and no logo. I have installed the processor drivers in my windows 7 laptop and when connecting the phone, it recognizes the processor for 2 seconds and disconnects.
@imjustafq, this was the first step when I thought I bricked my phone but to no use.
@LoLaTiOn, dont worry about the username. I am in the right section.
I tried to check with Samsung center and they said they dont know what to do. not tied with any operator though..

[Q] Bricked. Can't get computer to see OPO

My friend bricked his OPO, so I am attempting to fix it for him. I have came across the numerous fixes for bricked devices, although there is one problem I cannot seem to find a solution to. My PC does not see the phone at all. When I hold Vol down+ PWR I get nothing but a vibration every 2-3 seconds. No connect noise through my computer that it at least sees the phone or it doesn't pop up on the device manager. I only have a windows 7 computer.

how did he brick it? flash a rom/ kernel of different device?
