Hello everyone,
I am having a big problem after upgrading to official V30a.When I open the phone it says ''unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped'' every 3 minutes or so.
That means that my signal is lost and I can't do anything because that thing keeps popping up.Please help me because I am starting to freak out.After 6 hours of googling it I cannot find a solution.I tried everything.
Factory reset,another sim,rebooting,even some odd tricks like changing date or clearing contact data which worked for some guys.Before that I had 2.3.5 stock.
Also I live in Greece if that matters and I updated via the official LG update tool twice(the one was the emergency recovery which didn't solve my problem either).
What is more I am a complete noob regarding the ics and any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.In case it is needed I am running windows 7 64bit and everything(firewall,antivirus,etc) was turned off while I did the update.
P.s Please excuse my poor knowledge of english.As I wrote above I am from Greece.
Best wishes to everyone who makes the moil(or labour I don't know which is the right one) to read all this
I recommend flashing xbsall Rom bootv21e. You can flash with smartflash as for bricked devices, check that here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246001

Thank you very much for trying to help but I do not want to downgrade,since I've been waiting for a long time for the update.Isn't there any way to make ics work?Thanks again
Sounds like a bad flash perhaps. Double check driver install and reflash. Don't worry, it can be fixed as long as you don't hit it with a hammer Try my tutorial in dev section if you want.
Greece is a good place for Optimus 3D, btw

Thank you very much for the immediate reply.I haven't slept all night.
I have tried several times to uninstall and reinstall both the drivers and the support tool and now my phone is bricked(it doesn't open at all) since the last time when it tried to flash and stopped at 20% due to a connection problem between the pc and the phone as it wrote which can't be the case because I had double checked everything and the battery was full.
Could you please help me?I was thinking to try the Great's XBSALL's ressurection guide but I only have windows 7 64 bit and I don't know anyone with xp:/Will it work?If yes,should I do anything different than what is described in the tutorial?Thanks again

My guide uses LG Flash Tool. Also you have to run the setup before trying to use it. If flashing stopped at 20% something is probably wrong with driver setup or the .bin is corrupt (I'm not sure exactly what you did or used but it sounds like an incomplete flash). If you use my guide start over, follow it exactly, and use only the files linked. I have Win 7 x64.
Fastboot could possibly help, but you'd need to know exactly what is wrong and it's not easy to use if you don't understand command lines.

I just finished the ressurection
My phone will eventually liveThank you very much for your help and your great guide,which I am going to try tommorow(there have been over 16 hours since I started the upgrade and all that time I am in front of my pc,so now I am in a state no different than mashed potato).
Anyway thank you very much again.I am going to post the results once I am done.There's got to be something wrong with my pc(God damn Dell) so I am going to borrow another and try again.Now that I know the process thanks to you and mr.Karim Kahale it is very easyHave a nice evening or whatever it is in your country!
Well I'm glad something worked. Basically there are ways to fix each problem, but unless something is really wrong, reflashing (i.e. starting over) usually fixes most things because it rewrites everything. It usually is not necessary but it is one thing that does work. You have a good phone because, thanks to developers here, it is unbrickable.
Next time you can get some sleep knowing it is fixable

when you reflashed you device did you wipe the previous ROM? you need to wipe the old rom before reflashing, because when you reflash the ROM it does not erase the previous one you have. try wiping the old ROM...imho c",?
My lg optimus bricked as well
I have bricked my LG optimus p500. I am able to get into emergency mode by pressing search + vol down.
I am not sure what is emergency download mode and what are the key combinations to get into it. What should I do next. I have KDZ updater available with me but its not helping.
It says: "PHONE not found"
I'm stuck in fastboot on boot. Fastboot commands works on the phone but since it doesnt detect my sd card i can't flash or do anything. And i'm a noob when it comes to the commands in fastboot and adb... but gimme a shout if you've got a hint to my salvation

After days of living a double life
I downloaded the LG KDZ UPDATER but needed to find instructions on using after hours of failed attempts and came across a forum here that spoke of english version of the KDZ UPDATER that does not need windows enabler and that saved my phone.
Visit LG, download and install all the drivers offered for your model first. Then you will need to find the kdz updater file for your phone I could only find the one for the opt p500 and I have a p509 but used it anyway and boy was I happy to see the phone shut down and show the battery charging animation. I still had to do a factory reset afterwards because the phone kept getting stuck at the android screen. So the phone booted and I noticed there were some limitations like not being able to install apps because the phone would not acknowledge the apps on my SD CARD and I could not get a network connection to save my life.
I used the updater software for my phone that I downloaded from LG and did a software update and were back in business. I missed my baby. All of the essentials besides the LG software came from reading the forums here which I am so happy, thankful and greatfull for. Thanks to every one who posted what little progress they were making step by step. If your phone is stuck at the LG logo and you don't know by now,pressing and holding down the up volume, back and power keys while phone is off will put your phone in emergency mode. the drivers for your device will recognize your phone in emergency mode. I did not provide any links to make it that easy for you because my struggle gave me more knowledge than I was looking for but was much needed. Good Luck to all. I am know optimistic about doing additional mods to my device due to my faith in this recovery from a brick. I immediately came here minutes after my success to help and give thanx. I really appreciate the fact I did not have to talk or go to my carrier about this.

Hi, I have an LG Optimus T. I am a noob.rooted successfully and after that was trying to flash a custom recovery. I guess I screwed up some obvious thing and now the phone is stuck on the LG logo when ever I turn on, may be the continuous boot loop. When I connect it to PC, nothing is detected. Searched all over web and couldn't find any help except for this thread.
Btw, I tried holding down the buttons to see if it goes into recovery. does nothing.
Can some one please help me!!!
Thanks!!

( and the links in the thread to get the KDZ updater and the stock rom download from LG) to the word, including all the shaking. Got into the emergency mode, used the KDZ updater to install the ROM, (had to shake the phone until the updater detected it, ) and have the phone back and running.
For the rom downloads, none of the US T-mobile roms are available for download. I downloaded the Australian rom. follow the links in the post carefully, its all there.

OK, glad to know I'm getting somewhere. Downloaded that kdz, phone is on EMERGENCY MODE, but now trying like crazy to have it detected by the KDZ updater.
shaking is the only way. i had to shake it and restart updater half a dozen times before finally got it to detect the phone. its a test of patience. after it is detected, take it easy and let it do its thing. takes a while for the phone to boot up for the first time.

No luck at all. The KDZ uploader refuses to recognize the phone. I've been shaking my life away with no darn luck. I even tried booting Windows 7 into Safe Mode in hopes of this helping; nothing was accomplished.
Hi. I`m currently trying to update my G2X to latest version V21y, (2.3.4) with the LG Update tool. But everytime it gets to 4% it stops, and the driver on the computer disables for some reason. On the the screen it says "SW update please wait..." (I`m running win 7 64 bit by the way.) I have found tree different driverpacks from LG site ( LGUnitedMobileDriver_S498MA22_WHQL_ML_Ver_2.2, LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN37AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.7.2 and LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN38AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.8.1) but its the same problem when I try with the different driverpacks. Is there any other way to install the update without the LG update tool? I`m tired of having to use the G2X_V21E_00_NVFlash to get back to V21E version everytime it hangs. Maybe a program like G2X_V21E_00_NVFlash with the latest version can fix this? Any help would be very much appreciated!!
Did you try to update it on another computer? Also, I'm not sure but I think only having one driver installed is the best as other drivers may conflict with eachother.

Thanks! I tried on win vista with the same result. I`ve heard XP may be better, but dont have one here. What I ment with the driverpacks is that I installed one at the time (deleted one before I installed another). Hope there is a way to do this on win 7....

One more thing, I had that same thing happen to me, I've updated 4 different G2x's and usually, just trying another time was the cure.

Thanks. I have tried to do this many times on my computer but it fails everytime at the same point. I guess its a conflict problem between the driver and win 7. Why it works on some win 7 is lika a riddle to me, in wich case I dont understand what I`m doing wrong.

It's almost the same as a normal update. With earlier versions of the LG update tool people could do a kdz update with no problems, but I guess LG figured that out and ever since no matter what version of the LG update tool you install, as soon as you launch it it will automatically update itself to the latest version and thus prevent you from using the kdz update (unless of course it was for your specific carrier). That's where the offline update comes in, regardless of what operating system you're using (I did it on windows 7 64-bit). Basically, it blocks LG's connection to your pc, then installs the LG update tool, and a bunch of other little things, then you're good to go. You have to make sure that you are on a stock rom with no custom recovery installed.
If you follow the instructions carefully, you should be fine. If you run into problems, let us know
Hope this makes it a little clearer as to why it doesn't just simply work anymore.

Hi guys.
I'm using stock ROMs (V21E + Stock Android 2.3.5) in my P920 for the past 3 months now, but I'm curious about Android 4 ROMs, and also about faster/less battery consuming ROMs and Kernels.
What combination of ROM + Kernel do you recommend?
I would like to keep the 3D possibilities of the phone (camera, gallery, video playback), if possible.
Thanks.

Although defcomg was right, you should posted it in general sectionç a ROM with full 3D capabilities is just up to GingerBread, and with some difficulties in flashing the ROM, the ICS ROM ported by XBSALL.
The cyanogenmod ROMs are not with 3d capabilities and some of them have no working HDMI or other problems. So it's up to you.

Sorry about the wrong section, I would change it if I could.
I tried to install xbsall's ICS ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956347) this weekend, but couldn't.
I followed marti701's tutorial for installing BIN ROMs (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490), but failed.
My computer kept recognizing/unrecognizing omap4 device and I had a hard time installing it's driver (had to download it from another site and install it manually, it wouldn't install from windows update).
Also the "LGE CDMA USB SERIAL PORT" device wasn't installed in my computer, so I couldn't change the COM port to 41 as required.
Despite it I proceed with the tutorial, but LGFlashTool didn't install anyting, of course.

bensmokie, those were the tutorials I followed.
I've installed kdz basebands/roms and kernels before without any problem, but those bin roms are a problem for me. Maybe the reason is Win7 64 bits in my computer.
Maybe I will try again next weekend, this is my daily use phone and I can't afford to mess with it during work days.
Thank you.

Thats weard never happen to me. anyway fallow this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942836
Download the BOOT V 21E the bin file and the Fls file flash both of them in lg flash tool or smart flash when you are done, let phone start and lets see if it has signal. IMO you should have . after that try to flash xbsall's ported rom i think you should be good to go. if does not work on LG flash too try smart flash well i prefer Lg flash tool because it saved my butt many time
Good luck!!!
PS don't forget to change your COM port to 41.
Sorry bensmokie, I did some more reading and tried a few more times, and I managed to flash rom correctly, it´s working.
The thing is I don't have network signal for now, I,m trying to solve it at this time.

well thats great then!!!, when you flashed the ICS did you flash it with the FLS or just the BIN file? You have to flash both of them.... anyway here the Baseband you should need, find for your country and you should be good to go.

Working !
Flashed v30b baseband again, flashed bin rom again, and it's done!
Next step it's search for the bug solutions (camera and softkeys), root it and clean bloatware.
I'd like it to include my language (portuguese), but well...
Thanks again!

Use the combo on my signature, it works flawlessly. I'm from Porto too.
And use defcomg's modded LGcontacts3 and message plus profiles to solve the 80 characters bug in SMS.

Thanks neighbour!
I'll stick for now with this stock 4.0.4 rom, I'm loving it!
I've already rooted and cleaned, now I'll try to fix the bugs.
Will try defcomg's modded camera app and sms fixes.
The 4 softkeys problem is solvable with new kernel, right?
This has been a fiasco... Ive been attempting to Root, Unlock Bootloader, Install CWM, and Flash to HD Custom rom that is now out for this device. Ive found two tutorials on how exactly to do this and one video. The one originally posted on this forum by Superdragonpt has been modified by this forum and there no longer is any useful information or files available (after sifting over 120 pages in that thread) then there is another one posted on Android Forums here (http://androidforums.com/memo-pad-h...ad-hd7-us-backup-restore-unlock-recovery.html) using SP Flash Tool. However he clearly states that he was only capable of doing this walk-through on Windows XP and had limited success on Windows 7. As I am running windows 7 this creates an issue... There is also attempted to follow the YouTube instructions posted here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuNFx10cS2U) however the OP of that doesnt respond to his numerous requests stating that "App Not Installed" error upon attempting to install.
I delved even deeper to find the root of my Windows 7 errors. When using the SP Flash Tool Ive read that the battery needs to be fully charged and vcom drivers need to be installed. Well ok, I've installed over 20 different drivers from aproximatly 7-8 different threads on the SP Flash Tool, the battery is fully charged and there doesnt seem to be any conclusive resolution to any of this. The device seems to cycle between modes when you plug it into the PC full battery or not and the SPFT begins the process and stops the second the device cycles modes...
After all this research and work itd be great if someone could jump in here...

The forum your link leads to is down atm so I couldn't check it out. However, in the meantime, why don't you try booting Windows XP in a virtual machine, and give it a go there?

And virtually load drivers? Because thats where the issue is that Windows 7 only recognizes the driver for a brief 3-5 second window...

Yeah, you install drivers on the virtual OS and it should get detected.

Well that would be the proper course of action if you can get to CWM yes. Just don't forget to do a clean install, wipe data and cache.

Well, if the drivers on a virtual xp aren't working and you don't want to set up a dual boot with xp, then your only option is to send it to a service center.

Nabbed the tablet for 15 dollars with cracked digitizer at that point if I cant repair it myself then Id say cut my losses and have a pretty paperweight lol... I actually located a Windows XP machine and will be heading to get it seems that their a bit of a rarity these days
I can get into P0010UU_V16 but thats it. Reset and clearing everyting gets me no where. When i restart, i get the White boot screen with Blu, then it turns off. Sometimes i get a flash of a matrix looking green lines but that is it. I can't get it to recognize on my PC either when plugged in unless I put it in ADB mode i can get it to show up as a MT65xx Android Phone. I have tried the "SP Flash Tool" but it does nothing. Any ideas?

Thanks for no help! Maybe a check this thread with a link? i don't need the passive aggressive response. I was using the unbrick thread already...
who's the one being passive aggressive? read the thread... its not my job to spoon feed you... look who posted tons of help in those threads... ME
I've already helped more than just you. oh but wait... since YOU need help, by all means let me retype all of the stuff i already typed, in that thread and put it here... JUST FOR YOU....
when your main question is "i already did a thing, and it didn't work" when you obviously haven't even attempted to read the thread, to gain the knowledge of how to do the thing correctly... there is EXACT problem you are having, and how to fix it... no im not going to dig through it for you, I had to learn how, so do you... and i told you EXACTLY what to do...
so good job getting on the bad side of the guy who could have helped you, by being entitled ... no one here works for you, and we help those who help themselves... or at least have enough sense to research their issue and maybe read a little before acting like we owe you...
"MOOOMMMMMY I WANT TENDIES... TENDIES FOR MY TUM TUM"
check THIS Thread
edit since you did...
Wanna know how I know you arent reading that thread? If you were there are step by step instructions... there's even alternate fixes... I am not going to tie your shoes for you; especially after you got all butthurt...
all the information is there... including...
I will throw you a bone... you prolly are doing 1 of 2 things wrong...
1. dont have the right drivers for the MT chipset (the one that "pops up in device manager" as you said (yet anopther clue to you not reading the thread)
2. you arent using the correct procedure for SP flash tool...
the fact you can get into recovery even opens you up to another possibility to fix (and also points out the fact you arent reading the thread, 3 so far...)
All you need to do is read... it isnt 100000 posts...
Ill even make it easier yet... maybe search my post history.... Maybe me saying I typed it elseware was yet ANOTHER hint...
