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..
Are you into android development? Am a real noob in this and you helped me coming out of really difficult situation.
Now i want to root my phone and everytime its showing 'error no device find'
I'm not into android development... my skills lie in networking so there is not much i can do for android.
But those are common knowledge...
I bricked my phone several times to learn those.
You don't need to root. Follow wkpark's recovery installation and flash a custom rom (Darkroom int is great)

Hello guys,
I was trying to put XBSA's ICS on my O3D, but it gave me an DOWNLOAD FAIL and since that time I cant do anything with my phone.
The only thing working right now is:
-OMAP4BOOT: if I follow this, I'm getting the LG Logo (so it's not completely dead right?)
I've tried almost anything by now, and I just need some experienced brain to take a look at this thing.
If I connect the O3D to the PC, I'm getting a flashing device manager with "OMAP4430 USB Device" flashing on and off.
I don't get the COM ports so I cant adjust any setting for that as wel.
I tried installing the drivers etc on 2 windows 7 laptops (x64 and x32) and also one XP laptop, and I can almost cry for what I have left now .
If someone knows if this phone is repairable I happily pay some money for the work.
Does somebody also know that IF I return it to LG, how much money it's going to cost me?
PLEASE?!
Thanks in advance,
Me2!

have you tried flashing a kdz by this method http://p92x.acidhazardrom.com/guides/lg_flash_tool.html
At first, thank you for your very quick replly, but unfortunatly I did that already..
I get stuck on step 6 (from step 3) because the phone doesn't show up under a com port. It only does show up as a TI Boards --> OMAP4430 USB Device (the same at 7x32, 7x64 and xp)
Thanks anyway for your thought!

Thanx for your effort but i thought U used some other way! I had Optimus 2x before this phone and smartflash was essential for everything! But, normally, i used both .bin and .fls for flashing software! Why not fls file with this phone!? What if i`m on GB and i want to flash ICS with smartflash? that is different partition and bootloader. That`s why i ask u how come u flash only bin!? And does it say P990 in top left corner on phone model in smartflash U used!?
hi have been trying to update to 4.0 via flash tool but ive tried everything and cannot get it to work......ive been trying for 3 days and ive pretty much had enough of trying on my own so i though id would ask for help.
ok firstly i am on gb 2.3 im running custom cm7 no probs but i wana take the next step 4.0 so....i have all lg flash tool etc and fast load etc all nessacary files needed but for some reason my phone wont connet and flash its doing my head in. i have it into download mode, battery out etc but after that nothing i cannot progress further its like the program wont connect/register the phone.
im running win7 i even looked into other post and thought this maybe the problem but i have already installed these when gone into download mode as said here If you plug your Phone on PC without battery, OMAP4430 device appeared for seconds and then disappeared in your Windows Device Manager
(check arsen4oo photo guide in post #3)
On windows 7 sometimes OMAP4430 flashes too fast so you cant install driver.
There is a a windows feature that will help you install the driver easier.
To view devices that were once installed but are no longer attached to the computer, open a Command Prompt window using the Run As Administrator option and enter the command:
SET DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1
Then, from the same command prompt, type devmgmt.msc to open Device Manager. Choose View, Show Hidden Devices. The new instance of Device Manager will show “ghosted” entries for devices that were once present. This technique is especially useful for fixing problems caused by leftover drivers after replacing a network card or video card—you can easily delete the ghosted device or update the OMAP4430 driver.e
i just dont know what im doing wrong
cheers in advance
HI,
Please uninstall all LG drivers, and start again. If you are using WIN7, run it with WINXP SP3 compatibility mode.
Getting the Software upgrade screen is tricky, the timing needs ti be just right for the screen to stay, else it blinks and the OMAPP difficulty starts.
You need to listed to the connect disconnect sounds carefully.
Its not difficult, just that the timing needs to be right for the battery to be inserted.
all the best

Make sure all the drivers from the guide are installed. (including omap driver)
Load the DLL and the rom to lg flashtool.
Listen to the port with LG flashtool's port settings. (One is enough , The icon with a printer cable that's the port settings)
Take the battery out but be ready to plug it back in.
connect the usb cable.
Hold volume up
You're gonna hear sounds from windows in this order ;
1.Connected
2. Disconnected
3. Connected (Again , when you hear this plug the battery back in)
If you did it right then you're now in download mode.
Go to the device manager , find the LG device (I don't remember the name , but there is only one so you'll see it.) and go to properties , advanced and port settings.
Change the port to com41.
Flashtool should take over and start.
For extra guidance , see xbsall's thread ;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942836
To enter download mode .
Your phone in your hands without anything :-
1- Pull out battery .
2- hold vol+ and keep holding .
3- Connect your phone and you are still holding....
4- Now the phone is connected and you are holding vol+ . Insert battery and keep holding for about 3 seconds . Now the phone in download mode (there are some korean words on the screen) .
That's all

Because you're flashing the baseband before you flash the ROM. Change the sequence , ROM first then baseband. (Just remove the baseband you added on the flash tool ".fls file" then add it again it's gonna be flashed after the ROM )

"Step 13. Run Steps 3-9 again and you will see your phone being flashed from LG FlashTool.
It will be stopped at 26-30% because phone will turn off on its own BUT the next time you try to enter NORMAL DOWNLOAD MODE it will be available again."
When i do what step 12 says, instead of my LG flash tool flashin my fone, the screeen just stay stuck on the download mode with the korean message on it. Dont know how to move ahead. Thanks for your reply, please help me move past this level. In addition, instead of LGE mobile USB serial port, what i have is LGE CDMA USB serial port.

Thanks a bunch, i have finally gotten a lil hang of it. The problem now is each time i flash with LG flash tool, once it gets to 82%, the part where the flashtool reads target resetting , my fone disconnects and the LG flashtool brings out this error error_wm_progress_msg and some others. I have tried this 3times now and the error remains the same. When i power the phone, it goes in to clockwod mode and when i try to mount usb, it doesnt do. Even when i try to restore the backup i have, it says md5 error. Waiting for your reply

That s mean your phone is successfully done flashing , with me it never come to 100% it always on 82% its finish, just reboot your phone and wait for it to start on , and you are good to go, now go to recovery and format, or wipe cache and data and reboot at first time it says that you don't have enough memory left just go to privacy and reset the phone and format everything . and i think everything will be good after that. good luck.
Thanks

The truth is your phone can not be break just with flashing, it will brick though, unless your hardware is damaged, then you are think to buy new phone.
well about the JellyBam, while you are on GB now, root your phone and install Rom manager flash Bernie's file and you're out of the rebooting. the Barnie's files is the key of JellyBam or other CM10 to work. good luck.

For the question of buttons,is only a habit question
No one rom with ICS can solve this problem,so accept it xD
I've looked at the similar threads , to be honest even if one of the suggestions might work , none of the people seem to have the same problem from my understanding.
So apologize ahead of time as i imagine someone has bricked in a similar fashion in some thread buried somewhere.
But have an unlocked P925g lg optimus 3d, got a few days ago.
Last night i rooted just fine , root checker says it was rooted properly.
Then i installed rom manager as i was following manbearpigs post.
When i got to flash clockwork mod , i clicked the button and it looked like it was doing some flashing , but the phone turned off to reboot??
and now when i power on the lg logo appears and then the screen goes funny.
If i try to hold the power down and 3d button , i get a green screen . However i'm very unsure of what to do next.
However when i plug into usb the phone goes black , refuses to turn back on until i take the battery out.
I'd pay someone here if i could , but i'll take any help i can get.
Appreciate any help.
I don't KNOW, but just an idea:
May be your phone is stuck in download mode?
With this latest ICS (original, not ported) my phone shows black screen when in download mode (no message SW UPDATE and something in Korean).
Did you try to plug your phone to PC? Does your comp see it?
From what I read flashing wrong CWM might cause problems...
Also try to read Ressurection thread by xbsa, it helped me couple times
Don't give up!

My computer does see the phone if i take the battery out , and push the volume down while it connects. However when it connects , it cannot find drivers that it find originally.
I'd be happy just to have the phone back to froyo right now , however i am not giving up , just asking for advice. Will reply once i look at the resurrection post you suggested.

just try the LG flash tool to flash without reinstalling drivers, if it doesn't flash you have to uninstall all LG drivers, reboot your computer, install again LG drivers and flash Bin files using Flash tool, you don't have to flash Bin and fls files at the same time, first Bin file, if there is no network close LG flash, open it again and flash Fls at second time to get the right baseband (sometimes it not necessery to flash this fls files)
or just follow this guide

To get to download mode you need to keep battery in, remove sim and SD card. Hold vol+ and plug USB cable. You should see message SW UPDATE and some Korean. My phone now doesn't show it, just blank screen. But LG Flash sees it and u can flash bin fls.

Remove drivers and use the LGMobile Support Tool to install the drivers, if your phone is connected it should detect it and finish the install process. I believe the P925G is a Rogers device? You might have to select Rogers as your carrier to find the drivers.

ok so i've deleted all lg related material from my computer, when i connected the phone to the computer with battery in , nothing happens.
Without battery , it detects automatically , then it continues a loop of picking it up and dropping off .
So i moved to my laptop , attempted to follow the guide kupuku posted, however after getting the went logo on the phone , it never gets past that stage no matter what i do.
I've also tried LG support tool , it doesn't detect my phone on either my computer or laptop , even after installing/reinstalling the proper drivers.
LG does have a live chat which isn't open and the phone number can not be reached from my area.. i imagine its a 1800 number for asia or something as i do live in Canada.
My only other choice is to take the phone down to a guy that can get it out of boot loop for close to what i paided for the phone a few days ago.
Least to say , that option is something i want to do , nor can i afford to do.
once again i apprecaite the help that has been given , and for any that will be given.
edit:
Ok so i got lg mobile support to work by doing recovery and entering my imei number. Its currently at 4% but its been close to an hour and a half. Might restart and see if that works , but my phone is doing the logo boot repeat pattern still , even during this update. so not sure what exactly is happening.
I try to flash V28 prerooted with LG Flashtool first i flash the fls, then i flash the bin.
Later i restart the phone and still with logo all time. Then i try to come back to Ginger: i flash v21e first i flash the fls, then flash the bin, but in the middle somebody call me at door, and when come back LG Flashtool said error. Since then i can't run the phone. No download mode (pressing vol+ and power with usb cable connected), no recovery (pressing 3d, vol- and power) no normal run (power) the only thing i found is when connect the phone with usb and pressing vol + (no power button) in my netbook with XP the device administrator do something extrange, dissapear everything and apperar everything in a few seconds, but nothing new) Omap44xx is installed but don't recognize the phone. Then i don't know if phone still function or not.
Can anyone help me?

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

no way out. only with that method or (un)authorized service.
Follow the ressurection guide. Master the fastboot mode your phone is unbrickable
@bart

Just use the resurrection guide ..
It will work because ur pc is detecting omap
