switched back, still no response..:/

I posted a thread with the same issue a few weeks back.
No, it's not the end of your phone. You'll need xp/7 to repair the phone (since I'm on linux I can't currently repair it).
Use the LG tool, remove battery and insert it back, plug in usb and hold pwr+volup(or down) can't remember which one. Your PC will find a OMAP4430 device.
There is a few threads how you can repair your phone using emergency mode in the LG tool, you'll need to enter your IMEI etc.. Look in the Development section and look for the right thread.

I've tried that resolution, but t dont works, omap4430 blinking in device manager, cant use lg flash tool

Did you really press the right volume button? I've had that blinking-problem,too, until I pressed the other volume button instead.
And there's no need holding the power-button for doing this.

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

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...

Thanks a lot for the reply.
I tried but nothing happening..its not detecting as usb to change port to 41.
Is there any other way?? Also for flashing when i insert battery and press volume up and then connect it starts and shows LG logo and goes blank.

It is not showing in PORT in device manager when connected pressing volume + button

Does the phone go to download mode ("S/W upgrade mode ) ?? By insert the battery while you hold vol+ ??
You will see two arrows like the sync symbol in your phone screen . And then the phone will still connected with the PC .
Your problem is easy to fix . Just try to enter download mode . And every thing will be fine .
Good Luck

You hardbricked your phone if it doesn't go into download mode.
But no panic there is always a solution;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942836
Follow the guide above. (and I mean every step , however small they may seem)
ICS roms are now pre-rooted so you don't have to root.
Flash Xbsall's Ported custom ics (The one in the guide.)
Then install wkpark's recovery img. (Found here ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1978543)
Boot into recovery.
Install Darkroom ICS Int. (It's the best in my opinion) or whatever rom you wish.
They are all pre-rooted.
If you can't i'll guide you through it.
Hope i Helped.
Cheers!

Thanks a lot for the help and i really appreciate your willingness to take me out of this trouble, Thanks again

Everything worked fine till step 9..But still not showing anything in Ports

Make sure the drivers are correctly installed. Especially omap4430...
Start the script that has been referred to in the guide.
Shut down the phone , remove the battery , plug usb cable and when you see "waiting for 5 seconds" plug in the battery. That should work.
Keep me posted.

That may mean you have a bad cable.
But if you restored it , it's probably sometimes bad or you changed it or you used the front panel which is a hub (divides bandwidth , slows flashing process) and it's bad for ya.
Since my real name is turkish and hard to spell i'll give one better ;
Call me John.
If you must know my real name is "Dogukan".
And yes i can help you with that although it's relatively easy now that you got a hold of it.

Thanks a lot Dogukan..

You don't need to root. Follow wkpark's recovery installation and flash a custom rom (Darkroom int is great)

I really had the same problem and this method is not working.any hElp please

hey hey
you have to go into the fastbootmode. Load Oampboot(the newest version)
plug your battery out of your phone. Connect it via USB install oampdriver.
so now choose your Phone, if the tool starts write any data to your phone, do nothing. Your phone will be run into the S/W Mode. So you can insert your battery and run your Flashtool to flash your KDZ Bin FLS or anything else
good luck
