I have read lots of post, but could not find any post related to my issue.
After flashing different ROMs and Kernels my G2x wont boot into any ROM.
I have tried "volume up and down", it wont recognize USB.
Only way I know phone is working is that it turns on and boots only into clockworkmode recovery.
Please let me know if you know any fixes for this issue.
It kinda sounds like u may of flashed the kernel. I flashed a ics kernel by mistake on a cm7 rom and it did what you described. I used a process called nvflash.

How did you do NV flash I am not able to connect to pc? Is it possible to run the zip from clockworkmod?

Hey man, could you give us a little more information so we could try to figure out what is causing the issue? First off, did you originally install CWM with NvFlash?
Secondly, what was the latest setup (rom, kernel, gapps, tweak/mods, etc) that you flashed and in what order? Did you accidentally format or delete something you shouldn't have? Do you have the proper drivers installed for the phone to be recognized by your PC? Since you're able to get into CWM, try doing a full wipe and reflashing rom, kernel and gapps. Make sure sure to do a full data factory/reset, wipe both caches, format /system under mounts and storage, and try fixing permissions after flashing.
I believe I had Richie MIUI rom first with Mazout360 gb kernel then then I switched to different kernel. Phone wasn't doing well with any of those kernels so I went into recovery, wiped and flashed different rom. After which my phone didn't boot and was going straight into recovery. I wiped mount data/all of them; mount and unmount /all; used volk nulifier ; used scrub. I did all of that because I was not able to use USB / power volume up and down don't work neither. I don't know what else to do.

Try using a different USB cable and then flash ROM for recovery.

What exactly were you trying to put on the phone? You don't need a cpu to flash a rom. Where you trying to flash CWM?

It's power & vol down to get into CWM once you've flashed it. Follow the thread given by Waldano. This must be done before flashing any roms.
Is there a download mode for the g2x or is the volume buttons together the only way? Thanks for all the help guys I will post again a little later with a update

If you have already NVFlashed Clockwork Mod Recovery on the phone, you don't need a PC to flash again.
Download a good rom to a microSD card, throw it in the phone, use Clockwork to flash the zip from SD.
Or if you were smart, you would have performed a Nandroid Backup in Recovery before attempting to flash, in which you can just restore your backup and be back where you were at... which then you could download a different rom so the SD card USING the phone and attempt to reflash.
I messed up huge I flashed through rom manager that's why I can't get into cwm the phone wont do anything all it will do is go to the LG screen and the one with the little android Guy and a folder

Clean up tools are not good. If you can't wipe system/data factory reset in cwm you don't need to be flashing roms.

Well I did because in the op for cleanup batch he was having the same problem so I tried it didnt work and I know how to flash and wipe through cwm. I work in a place that does not allow radios and I love to have music when I work and the only way I can do that is Bluetooth.

Sorry to hear that out does not solve the issue for you. The reference link in the op includes the method with gb 2.3.3 just flip the recovery in the folder so you have cwm as the reference will push stock.
BTW if you don't need mute with bluetooth you should switch to anything over 2.3.3 as for some reason the disconnect problem gets resolved that way... I couldn't as I must have mute over bluetooth

You can try to flash the below official ICS Stock roms via CWM, then try to reconnect with PC to flash via ODIN for complete stock.

Do you have the necessary drivers installed on the pc? Try installing Kies on the pc. It will install the proper drivers for you.

Works fine but i connect my phone to my comp for backing up files and flashing you know that kinda stuff. I wonder what could if caused it. I remember it started when I was using fb app and it suddenly just shut off and wouldnt come on. When I tried to charge it because it seem like it was dead it would keep vibrating over and over again just like boot looping. Even now if phone is off and I connect the charger it won't show the battery meter but automatically turn it self on. So I think I'll have to send it to att warranty.

So here's the deal. My phone is stuck at 2.3.6 no matter what I try. I tried Kies update it wont recognize my device. I tried Odin to get CWM the same thing. I have tried numerous computers and none will recognize my device yet all of which I can charge my phone off of. When I press volume up and down all I get is an option to install update from zip, wipe cache, and format phone. Why can I not root this phone? My build number shows GINGERBREAD.UCLA3. Please help.

I know this is rather simple, but in your actual phone settings, did you set up USB connect as charge only? This is what it is sounding like to me that you have done.
Go into phone settings, and then USB Utilities, then connect storage to PC. Low and behold your computer should quickly go nuts and say HEY we've got something here to play with. You might want to try to do this with the Phone unplugged from the computer to start with, then once the phone tells you to plug it into the computer do it then.

Ok. So i grabbed a micro SD card to see if that would change anything. It doesnt. The phone is still not recognized by the computer. Ive tried a few USB cables and three computers (2 win8 and 1 win7). The phone charges from the computer fine. I tried my nexus 7 with both cables and all computers also. They saw the N7 no problem. So it is something in the phone. Thanks for any ideas you throw my way.
OK. Fresh clean flash and same problem. Silly question but can I just flash back to an older build to see if that fixes it. Only reason I ask is the partions. Thanks.

You would need to flash a stock "unbrick" package first, then flash your way back to JB via the usual methods... starting here for the stock packages:
Heimdall - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1524081
-or-
Odin - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=27286083
Damn. I was afraid of that. Oh well. Thanks. Any ideas what caused it?

Your phone issue sounds like loss of imei info. That sometimes happens during the convert to jb. Revert to stock usually fixes that.
2nd item - there are no back conversions for the partition layout other than the stock packages.
