[Q] [Help] NVFlash on Mac?

I've been searching google to see if there was a NVFlash link and have been coming up short. Does anyone know how to Flash this on a Mac?

Nope, you gotta install boot camp and dual boot into Windows, or install VMware Fusion and run Windows as a virtual machine, or find someone with a PC. That's about all your options.

use rom manager
use rom manager from the market. g2x is now on the list and you can get clockwork recovery from that.

You did the batch clean up without flashing a new ROM? Nice...
Just nvflash to stock 2.3.4. It'll work, if you get errors use a different USB/USB slot.
There are guides that explain.

Look that the thread here for detailed instructions on how to flash recovery with nvflash. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566681
If it works properly but you can't boot into recovery then run the clear-up batch and you should be good to go (assuming it works and you can boot into recovery and flash a ROM.

LG G2X soft bricked

I have an LG G2X with a stock Gingerbread 2.3.4. The other day I tried to upgrade using HellFireSandwich. After the step where I wiped the Dalvik Cache, I choose the upgrade folder from my SD card and hit Reboot. The phone rebooted and now is stuck on the blue LG image. I tried all kind of fixes from the internet, youtube, etc. I even tried ODIN but no success. The phone is not in warranty anymore.
What should I do, if there is anything that can be done to fix it?

First off, did you NVFlash CWM or install it via ROM Manager application?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Pretty sure he initially installed via rom manager but then flashed with nvflash. If I'm recalling correctly from an earlier thread the op made

Yeah, there's no way. Unless he did use a compy to at least nvflash, then just download a rom using mobile browser onto SD card, grab a kernel, gapps if needed, and flash as usual. Done this several times using only phone, but of course the computer MUST be used for nvflash, otherwise, OP, you'll have nothing but problems.

You would know if you've used nvflash because you would have downloaded a small application to your PC, taken out the battery, pressed volume up/down simultaneously, installed APX drivers, etc etc...it's a pretty unforgettable experience. There is no way of checking except remembering whether you went through such a process.

lol butthurt much? I ask a simple question and Adam trolls me so you block me? I wasn't even talking about you lmfaoooo. and I have a PC therefore I do have nvflash. I'm asking if this can be done without it
Sent from my LG-P999

Adam wasn't trolling you at all. From what i can see everything he said was in order to help you. You can't do anything until you nvflash cwm onto your phone. End of story. And you still haven't made it clear if you used nvflash to install cwm onto your phone from your PC

pretty unforgettable experience etc? I said I'm a noob that doesn't mean talk to me like I'm a dumbass. but yes, I used nvflash to flash CWM thanks to your help good sir.
Sent from my LG-P999

I followed the steps for the KDZ updater and that failed is why I'm asking. My PC runs through all the steps flawlessly until the last one where it opens LG driver updater then says version is up to date.

Adam did not mean anything derogatory by his comments, don't misinterpret an experienced user's comment as negative feedback.
Now on to your topic, i do not believe you can upgrade your baseband without a computer. I would use lg's upgrader tool to do that. I don't know much about it as i was originally on 2.3.4 however i know theres a sticky on it somewhere. Check all the g2x forums and their sticky sections. You will definitely need a PC to do it
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

I've checked all the methods posted such as the offline KDZ updater and they failed. most are XP specific and I'm running vista
Sent from my LG-P999

Yeah sorry not trolling, just trying to get an idea where you are with the phone. What exactly are you trying to do? Upgrade to 2.3.4 stock using the LG update tool? I'm thinking you should just download v10f from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048274
The v10f should be the 2.3.4 if I'm not mistaken, and should be flashable from cwm. Make sure to use the instructions provided on that thread. It's a stock nandroid backup, so you have to use the backup/restore menu in cwm. Not sure you have to use a PC (you might be able to do the extraction it talks about in the instructions using androzip, not sure though)...
But what is your ultimate goal by doing this? Cm7 with the right kernel works so much better.
Sent from my LG-P999

Thanks Adam I'm going to save nandroid back up on my PC since i lost mine. Probably a good idea to have a stock 2.3.4 hanging around anyway

[Q] G2x Bricked

I have read lots of post, but could not find any post related to my issue.
After flashing different ROMs and Kernels my G2x wont boot into any ROM.
I have tried "volume up and down", it wont recognize USB.
Only way I know phone is working is that it turns on and boots only into clockworkmode recovery.
Please let me know if you know any fixes for this issue.

It kinda sounds like u may of flashed the kernel. I flashed a ics kernel by mistake on a cm7 rom and it did what you described. I used a process called nvflash.

How did you do NV flash I am not able to connect to pc? Is it possible to run the zip from clockworkmod?
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk 2

Hey man, could you give us a little more information so we could try to figure out what is causing the issue? First off, did you originally install CWM with NvFlash?
Secondly, what was the latest setup (rom, kernel, gapps, tweak/mods, etc) that you flashed and in what order? Did you accidentally format or delete something you shouldn't have? Do you have the proper drivers installed for the phone to be recognized by your PC? Since you're able to get into CWM, try doing a full wipe and reflashing rom, kernel and gapps. Make sure sure to do a full data factory/reset, wipe both caches, format /system under mounts and storage, and try fixing permissions after flashing.

I believe I had Richie MIUI rom first with Mazout360 gb kernel then then I switched to different kernel. Phone wasn't doing well with any of those kernels so I went into recovery, wiped and flashed different rom. After which my phone didn't boot and was going straight into recovery. I wiped mount data/all of them; mount and unmount /all; used volk nulifier ; used scrub. I did all of that because I was not able to use USB / power volume up and down don't work neither. I don't know what else to do.

Try using a different USB cable and then flash ROM for recovery.

PC won't recognize USB. There is no sound or anything in device manager when I connect USB with volume up and down pressed. (battery out)
