So I have read the other threads where people run into the issue of not being able to boot their phone back up but it isn't helping me with my G2X....
I am getting the error message of can't mount /cache/xxxxxxx every time I try and wipe my phone. I also am unable to flash any new ROMs or boot my phone into a normal state. Has anyone had this problem? can anyone help? I greatly appreciate it....
How did your phone get in this state? What did you do before this problem occurred?

I actually have no idea, I had just flashed an eagleblood ROM and it was working fine, I went to make a voice command and it froze, after 5 minutes i took the battery out and put it back in and tried to boot it up, that is where the problem began.
ive had this problem 1nce b4 dunno how either, but the rom 4 recovery thread in dev section fixes it no probs : D

Have you tried reflashing CWM and wiping everything and trying a different ROM?

They don't stock them anymore, so if they don't have anymore in stock they say they give you the next best phone which in reality would be a Galaxy S2.
But they mean next best in terms of price, and since the Galaxy S 4G sells for the same price as the G2x used to sell for, that'll probably what you'll be getting if you return it and they don't have any G2x's left.

Hey ladies and gentlemen, I thought I'd share this piece of info for anyone that's unhappy with his/her Infuse due to performance/bug errors on the stock rom. I recently was feeling the same way until I did a full restore back to the stock build through recovery. This changed my Infuse experience 100%. My battery lasts about 2-3 times longer, and the phone has Zero lag. If you're having the issues I was after getting it stock from AT&T, I'd suggest trying this before becoming totally po'd with the phone. I'm not entirely sure what this fixed, but I did clear out the dalvik cache along with all the other info. Hope it helps!
Probably un-crufted RFS. That filesystem is known for performance degradation over time, hence Voodoo Lagfix for ext4 conversion.

So you are running 100% stock? And it has better battery than rom's......I dunno
Explain more. Like you did flash back to with ultimate unbrick or what

I have no experience with the custom Roms for the Infuse, but it's running faster than my old Nexus S now. Also, there was no flash involved. I just did the default recovery image located on the stock phone.
How'd you get to that?

Essentially, yes lol. I just wanted to put it out there though, because it really made a huge difference and may help out all those people with GB thirst because of performance and battery issues.

When I try to use the power menu to do anything related to shutting off the phone (shutdown, restart, recovery, etc) it hangs as it's shutting down and freezes on the home screen - this just started last night. The only thing that ends up shutting it off is a battery pull.
Anybody else experiencing this or know what's up? I've cleared/formatted/wiped and loaded a couple of different ROMs to see if that helped but the problem is persistent.

That's not possible, man. You can't flash a different cwm in cwm. You tried to re-dl the touch version?

OK I got cwm touch to work right finally. But it still froze on restarts and shutdowns. So I wiped cache partition and dalvick cache now finally the phone restarts and powers down as it should.. so its confirmed now that to fix the freezing at shutdown/restart problem is to flash cwm touch. Also seems that the only version of cwm that works right with this version of ics is cwm touch. The old version will function but its possible that it will cause little bugs or quirks.
Thanks xcrazyd for the help now we know for sure what the deal is. I guess the touch I downloaded the other night was corrupted cause I just downloaded and installed again and it worked great....

I really would appreciate some input on this.. I was on NexusMod ICS for about two days before I woke up one morning to find that my phone had rebooted and was stuck at the splash screen. I tried pulling the battery and powering it on but got the same result, so I tried to get into CWM and couldn't. It would boot to recovery but not long enough to actually do anything, so I ODIN'd stock rom and CWM then flashed AOKP build 38 instead of NexusMod. Everything was fine for a few days but this morning I woke up to my phone stuck on the splash screen again, only this time when I pulled the battery and powered it on, it booted up fine, but my wallpaper had changed (weird).. So I really don't have a clue why this would happen, but I'd appreciate some help, and TIA!

Yes, that's a good idea, but wouldn't you think it would be an app that's causing it since it happened on two very different roms? Or am I way off in my thinking?

Had this issue with some roms when I was using cwm. Once I updated to cwm touch didn't have an issue.

So I'm trying to fix a phone for someone but I can not find a way. Basically the phone says the IMEI is all 0's and even if you put a sim in it has a O with a line through it instead of service bars but still shows the 4G icon. Also it has all this stuff written on the screen that I've attached pictures of. Going into the settings says all 0's for the IMEI. I've tried factory resets and using ODIN to flash stock but no luck, I've thought of just restoring the IMEI but not to sure that would solve it
Yeah it looks like you need to restore the IMEI. Worth a shot
EFS is wiped and needs to be reprogrammed. Did this happen randomly? You can take it to Verizon and they can fix it as long as the device isn't blacklisted.

Yea pretty much they brought the phone to me one day like this. The person who owns it isn't tech savvy at all, doesn't even know anything about rooting

Doesn't Tweaked reset that? Could have swore I saw something like that when Odining Tweaked 3.
(~: Tweaked out on Peace :~)
Can you get the phone to download mode? If yes you can get the phone restored to original settings. Based on this picture your kernel might be messed up. It is just a guess.

What do you mean by try a different modem sorry im noob ! thanks!
It may help with your issues, there are only a couple options for this phone, can be flashed in recovery like you did your rom.
Someone has a post, I believe a sticked one that has all the modems for you to choose from
