[Q] LG P500h with recovery issues...

Okay, so I read and read, searched and searched. So far I'm pretty stuck.
I did a ton of research before taking my LG P500h, and flashing the ROM because I wasn't a fan of the Froyo android setup. Did everything properly, ran an nandroid backup, everything that I was told to do.
Rooted using Gingerbreak APK, custom backup using Amon_RA custom recovery. All done using the latest USB drivers LG updated me with.
I am currently with Koodo Mobile here in Canada. Pretty much an offspring of Telus Mobile. Currently I am running Cyanogen Mod 7 the 6.5.7 beta build, and the phone is not bricked, or giving me any errors or hassle.
The problem is that I cannot use the 3G network or use the Koodo network. It only defaults to Telus towers. No android market showing up anywhere either. From what I've found on here, there doesn't seem to be a bugfix solution to this, and no settings I've been able to change on the phone has helped my situation. Maybe I missed something.
So, I decided to take it back to where I began, back to Froyo 2.2.1 . This is where it all went wrong. Tried going through the Nandroid backup and restoring that, I was given an " Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb! " . Okay, I'm not exactly a Java programmer so I'm a little intimidated. I do however have Android SDK going on my laptop.
Some more searching revealed the KDZ_FW_UPD.exe flashing method. I got the right KDZ file for my Koodo phone, V10V_00.kdz and began the process. Everything checks out, good to go, started update. Wait, phone not found? WTF! My laptop recognizes it, says my phone is connected and working. No problems here, just can't find it? UGH.
So, I need someone to either give me info on getting it to flash the kdz, or get Cyanogen Mod 7 working properly on my device.
Please help, I'll fully admit I'm a noob to this, and not an expert programmer either. But, I know computers and I fully understand what I have done so far to my phone. Just not enough to fix it.

Okay, I have gotten some things working on my phone. I think I am settling into Cyanogen Mod nicely. I missed the Google apps flash zip so I have my market and stuff. Its a shame the data does not work though. Oh well I will keep updating as it gets developed.

GOT IT! finally...
Finally got my phone recovered to OEM specs. I had to restore my computer back to before I installed all my drivers and reinstalled all my USB drivers from there. Phone connected to USB properly, ran the KDZ updater, and it sucessfully installed the V10V kdz. All is well.

finally good luck.. enjoy androiding..

When you flashed the cyanogen mod rom what program did you use to flash the phone? And how did you make a rom backup? When you reflashed the stock rom did it still have all the original bloatware?

LG Optimus P500h TELUS became dead during Upgrading
Hi everybody!
I have LG Optimus P500h Telus. I purchased from Kijiji. I don't have any papers or documents for that so i cannot claim its warranty.
I was trying to upgrade its version during upgrading my device was stuck so I disconnected and plugged out its battery and inserted again. When i tried to turn it on. It never turned on again. It never ever appeared emergency mode again. I tried for several times by pushing home, power, and volume up and down buttons, and escape buttons. Now its just like dead. It never showed any sign of life. If anybody have any idea what happened with it and how I can recover or where I should take this one for repairs. I am in toronto, canada.
Your help and suggestions will be appreciated.

HELP!

CM10.0.0 Evita Updater

A notification popped up in CM10 alerting me that there was a nightly build update available (stable & evita). I decided to go ahead and run the thing to see if it worked/what the deal was and it followed normal process.. Booted into recovery, attempted flash, rebooted to a black screen.
It appears that it attempted to update and subsequently failed so I booted into recovery and flashed the cm10.0.0.zip myself. Fortunately nothing was lost or bricked and even my phone settings were all there when I booted back up again after (what appeared to be) a successful flash. Any knowledge of this? Seems pretty weird to me so I figured I would ask.
THanks

Which One X do you have? I'm on the AT&T version and went through what you just said identically... however, after manually installing through recovery I'm still stuck in a boot loop/black screen. Unsure what to do at the moment. I don't know this stuff that well so I'm afraid to flash the build I had before without wiping (which I would really rather not do haha). I'd love to move to the stable version, although mine was pretty perfect as is. I just went ahead with the update for the hell of it, but that looks now like it was a mistake Any advice?

Cm10 stable works for me. But I installed it in recovery

I figured out the issue. I forgot that with the 2.20 firmware you have to flash the boot.img separately from the ROM. So after the update all I had to do was flash the boot.img and it was all ready to go again

[Q] Flashed 4G recovery onto 3G phone

Okay.
So, I have tried to UTSE on this and found a thread that directed me to flash a new radio (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884) which I have done but the fastboot is still not letting my phone respond.
So...
My phone is a GT 19023.
I'd updated to jelly bean awhile ago but was having some serious performance problems and wanted to flash back down to ICS or GB. Of course, the recovery wasn't working so I went to Nexus Hacks and downloaded his recovery files, stupidly I didnt notice it was 4G specific (crespo4g), just that it was for ICS and JB. The recovery seemed to work ok, had the new touchscreen version, but then I tried to install a stock GB ROM from my SD card. At the end it seemed stuck on writing radio. Wasnt doing anything so assumed it was ok to reboot. When it rebooted every process was failing so I tried to do the fastboot flash recovery again and the phone just wouldnt respond.
Tht's where I am at now.
Saw another thread and got directed to the link above to flash the radio.
Did that, used the UCKF1 radio, no problems installed fine but the phone still won't respond to fastboot flash recovery using recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-crespo.
Can anyone point me in the right direction PRETTY PLEASE! I'm not a techie guy and its my only phone :crying:

You did a lot wrong here. NEVER DO SOMETHING UNTIL YOU HAVE COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE OF IT
Also you flashed the wrong radio. I would suggest you to stop as where you are right now.
You need to go complete stock first, by flashing the factory image.

[Q] need help please. can't grt phone to activare still

I got my one SV k2_cl from boost a little over a month ago and got the bootloader unlocked and rooted, working fine until one morning it wouldn'tmake calls or texts. I tried to factory reset and when I tried to boot got stuck at the HTC logo. Took me 2 weeks to get it to even flash a Rom on here that will somewhat work. I've got WiFi and partial 3g 4g connectivity but no voice at all. When I try to use the phones its activation tool-error, tried manually programming phone- nothing. I'm stumped. Can someone please help me out here. Don't want to have to buy another phone if I can help it. The only guess I've got at the moment is that if I could get a stock original rom to flash I'd be good to go probably and just hold out on doing anything else to it until after the kitkat ota is launched. The few stock roms I've tried either wouldn't download for some reason or just won't flash right. Thanks in advance for any help guys. I've always been more of a hardware geek more so than software but I can usually muddle through following guides of course.

I'm not much into boost, but did you try to flash the available RUU?

help...
As a matter of fact I have tried that and unfortunetly the installer locked up on a reboot of the phone because the phone wants to do the "Android is upgrading # of #" on every boot. That was why I was thinking since adb/fastboot and the HTC One Toolkit all sorta work that if I could get ahold of a working stock rom to flash on there and I have a stock CWM backup still on my laptop from when I first got the phone rooted and everything working. But of course thanks for the tip anyway. I wish that would work. It seems to be the easiest way to install back to stock.
