Hi, I had a bricked optimus 3d, after the installing the cwm recovery I couldn't turn it on, it would always go into the cwm recovery, no mater how I turned it on.
So I followed johnance17's unbrick guide on an xp pc, and I was able to flash the v10b fw.
Everything went like you described it: the counter reached the 100, I waited about 6minutes after that to turn it on, after that it would go straight to the android factory recovery (the one with the blue letters), and to phone won't boot up.
So I made a factory reset, than reboot, but nothint happened, then factory reset and wipe cache partition, than reboot, but I was still getting the recovery.
Then I made a factory reset, wipe cache partition and wipe nv dynamic partition, and then reboot, but the phone instead of rebooting turned itself off.
I turned it on, but it said, that the battery was almost empty, and needs a recharge (strange, because it was fully charged).
I pluged it on the charger, and the sign of a totaly empty battery was showed.
I left it for a couple of hours and the hole night, but the empty battery sign was still there.
I tried to turn on the phone, it booted up normaly, everything was ok, the phone was working again, but the battery was completely empty.
I bought 2 original replacement batterys, but the result is still the same.
The phone is unbricked and operational if the charger is plughed in, when I unplugh the charger, the phone says, that the battery is empty, and turn itself off, and will not charge.
So, can someone help me what went wrong, why won't any battery work?
Why won't they charge?
I think that it has something to do with the last item I wiped, the nv dynamic partition, because after that the phone hasn't rebooted, but turned off.
What sould I do?

I've tried, but no luck, unfortunately..
I was able to flash 10b without brick, but but had battery issues like you described. I thinks its a flaw in the build. I just installed King_3d_rom_v1.2 ROM which is in the developer section of these forums and it works well and has apparently solved my battery issues. ...probably worth a shot! (Good Luck!)
I tried to flash King_3d_rom_v1.2 ROM but still, battery is still at zero(0) level.
@freez76, What ROM were you using before resolving your battery issue?
Did you do a full wipe before flashing (cache, data, dalvik)? I was on 10b when I was having battery problems. I am now on 10d with King and not only its my battery working again, but its better than it was on the May version of the stock ROM. ...I should also point out that I am on a developer version of the phone.

I have same problem to you. My first rom is LGP920-V08i-APR25-2011. I upgraded it with V10b_00.kdz. However the O3D turned off after booting. If I connect with USB cable, it is working well. but battery level is zero. Do you have same firmware at the first time???
Yepp, I've unbricked it by installing the v10b fw.
Tried the kingdom rom with wipeing everything, but still the same. :S
Have you backed up original rom??? I didn't..... So I didn't use o3d until now... If anyone has the old rom,. pls post it... Thanks.
@freez76
Is the 10b fw you had with battery problem the one from Fabio's post? When you flashed it, did you wait for the O3D to restart itself after reaching Param 100 in kdz_updater?Would it be possible for you to upload a backup copy of your currently working ROM (King) and share it with us who are having battery problem?...Thanks in advance.
@freez76
I hope so.... Pls Help us freez76... Thanks
@dnardz
Yes, it was the 10b update from fabio's thread, but the update was from gpx. From what I remember the update took awhile, but eventually completed normally. However, the battery seemed completely messed up after the first discharge.
I am attaching a link to my wiped fresh backup (which will need to be unzipped) of my o3d with KingROMv1.2 installed. Its the same restore backup method that gpx used. Just a note, I am using CWM 4.0.0.9. Please check your version and update if its not the same. I hope this helps....Good luck!

Many thanks Freez76...I'll give it a try now...
Thanks Freez76. However it is not working at my O3D.... How about dnardz and Zirowe????
Sad to say,it didn't work also on mine.. i think i'll try to flash 10b again,..then apply the June update as Freez76 did, and then update using King's rom.otherwise we'l have to wait for an official flashing program ang maybe a gingerbread rom to come out.by the way im also using prototype model.

Well, I'm still stuck, I'm out of town now, will give it another try on tuesday.
Not ideal I know but at least you will be able to charge the batteries again as well as having 2 spares. I use one of these and they work very well.

I've already tried two other batteries with the same result, so it's not a solution for me.. :S
The idea is that you can charge the batteries with the stand alone charger, not that you get other batteries to charge in the phone.

Hi Every one,
I'm new here, I have a HTC Inspire 4G which I have root it and now I installed Cyanogenmod 2.3.4, but I have couple of issues with this Rom, I'm wondering if any one else having the same issue or not.
1. some times it shut down itself without any notice and when I turn it back on, while is in process of mounting the SD card, it shut down itself again and some times I have to do this 3-4 times to turn it back on.
2. people are telling me that they can't hear me and it seems that my Mic is shuting down.
3. while I'm in good coverage area suddenly it looses all the signal and I have call drop.
I don't think that I can send it to HTC as is rooted and warranty is voided.
any help is appreciated.
A few questions for you:
1. What root process did you use?
2. What cyanogen are you using? The rc1 or a nightly?
3. Did you wipe before you flashed cm?
4. Did you install a custom kernel?
5. Did you flash anything in conjuction with the rom?
My suggestion would be to redownload the rom and check the md5 checksum to be sure it was a good download. Then back up your Apps with titanium backup. Do a nandroid, then a complete wipe
And reflash the rom. After the phone is fully rebooted, reboot again and see if problems are still there. Don't flash anything but the rom until you have rebooted twice.
Im using RC1, download it from clockworkmod

Try booting into recovery. Wipe and then flash fro? There instead of going through rom manager.
I've been using clockwork mod recovery for ages now, on a few different HTC phones.
But now on my sensation running the latest CWM, whenever I go to clear my cache or data or anything related to a fresh install the process begins then the screen goes black (seems to be off completely) but the menu, back, search and home buttons still set off the vibration? The phone is completely unresponsive in every other manner, no way to get the screen back on without pulling the battery.
Anyone else had these issues? I've also had it when trying to flash a rom (very disheartening indeed to see "starting update" then a dead screen!)
Anyone clever enough to know what's causing it?

Try 4EXT I find it works better than CWM
Funnily enough I did, the touch capabilities seem brilliant, in fact its the recovery I'm on now. BUT............. I've just tried to update hypersensation to version 1.8 and it failed to install it! Began the process an then just rebooted recovery again?
It may be the phone I think? Not the recovery?
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
Bit of a noob moment here........ but will the fact that I recently updated my firmware to 3.12 be causing these issues?
Even though it gives you a locked bootloader you still remain s-off, so should still be able to flash to your hearts content right?
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
The new firmware shouldn't be causing you these issues. Try reflashing CWM and see what happens.
Thanks for the advice, I've literally just tried a fresh install of both 4ext recovery and CWM. Same thing keeps happening. Grrrrr!
So next logical step is a fresh download of hypersensation v1.8.
After that? Who knows?
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
Ok so a fresh download of hypersensation did it.
But still random recovery reboots when clearing data/system for a fresh install?
Never mind, 4ext does it.
Shut her down.

I am using viperxl 3.0.0 with stock kernel. I just did a full wipe and reflash yesterday to see if it would cure my battery drain issues, but they seem to be worse now. I unplugged my phone this morning and let it sit for 2 hours. In those 2 hours, it drained to 80%, and I cant find the cause.
Any suggestions?
Did you download the Rom again. You may have got a bad download. Maybe a rouge app. Check to see if you used a ton of data. Also you can try a wipe all script before you flash, Caulkin has one in his thread that I use. It seemed to help with issues I've had in the past.

I recently flashed the cyber s4 rom and i like it. The only problem i have is that everytime i turn my phone off, it wont turn back on unless i connect it to a charger, even if the battery isnt dead. Also my battery has been dying quickly.
Is this a hardware issue, battery issue, rom or anything?

Did you do full wipes when flashing the rom, try reflashed again and do full wipes, clear cache and fix permission.

i agree with super, but to clearify a FULL wipe is doing the following:
wiping cache
wiping d-cache
factory reset
wiping system
then you flash the rom, it is so far one of the "cleanest" ways of rom installation
I did a full wipe and i was just waiting for an upfate on the rom to flasg since i rarely turn off the phone. New update is up so im going to flash and see if the problem persists.

sounds like you needed to factory reset/wipe cache/wipe dalvik cache/fix permissions before you flashed, some people say fix permissions isnt needed but in my experience it helps with things like this
