When I try to turn off my Optimus 3D P920, it always restarts instead of shutting down.
I try to shut down either by holding the power button and selecting Power off from the menu, or using an app like Quick Boot. Always restarting.
This happened after upgrading from official 2.3.5 to official ICS.
One thing I noticed after the upgrade: immediately after the phone turns on, the LG logo changed(the one that appeares before the bootanimation). Before the upgrade it was red like in this image

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now, when the phone boots, it looks like fastboot
The only way I managed to actually turn the phone off is to enter TWRP recovery and select Shutdown from there.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you!
I just found out that this is a bug of using non-stock(wkpark's) bootloader. Finally found a way to flash stock bootloader/recovery using this tool - http://d-h.st/24C
The downside is that i lost TWRP. Well, I made a backup before, and if I ever need recovery I will reflash it. I prefer being able to turn the phone off normally.
P.S. The phone still has the fastboot look when it boots, it doesn't really bother me though, it might just be the way it is after ICS upgrade.

Was following the instuctions here to flash back to stock to do the OTA update on my note which is already rooted with CWM, and when I rebooted into odin (step 3), it booted up to a screen saying "Downloading..." and it's been stuck here for about two hours now. I can't seem to reboot it or power off, what the heck do I do?

/facepalm I apparently hadn't held that down long enough. Thanks, that got it back and booted up, now the question is what went wrong so I can get this flashed?
Did you reflash the stock recovery through ODIN? After doing that you then can flash the OTA, then reflash cwm and supersu...

Please help me.
That's not a bootloop, it's the stock recovery updating the firmware (or trying to).
How long did you let it run?
Do you eventually get the Android falling over with an exclamation mark
What were you on and what's the exact name of the update you were trying to flash?
What happens if you hold the Power button for a long time?

Thanks for your quick reaction!
I am at my work now so i cant answer al the questions but.....
1. What if Android falling over with an exclamation mark.
2. Can i still fix it when i can get into recovery?
3. What if i don t know the exact name of the update?
4. If the cube just keeping running and nothing is happening is this a big problem?
Hi there
Today I went from a working phone to a not working one. It all started when i wanted to do a factory reset.
I was on Franko r20 and on the second latest cynogen verison (can't remember the number). Since i wanted to flash the latest update i put the stock kernel on my phone and flashed it in
CWM directly on my phone. After that the phone didn't boot into the system. It just shows the boot icon.
Then used a guide to reflash every single OS component via fastboot . Still the same. No boot into system. Also cyanogen mod recovery couldnt find a data partition. AFter that i flashed TWRP. But like before TWRP also can't find /sdcard. It won't let me mount *data"
I also did a full factory wipe.
However when I reboot the phone I noticed that after a while the capacitive buttons light up and the phone makes key sounds when I tap the screen and lock sounds when I push the off button. It seems the phone is booted but I still get the regular OPO boot image on my screen.
Can anyone help me with this matter?
EDIT: This is how my TWRP console looks after trying to do a factory reset / wipe:

I had the latest OTA update installed without root, and the device was running fine. I don't think I've turned off the device after the OTA update, but today my battery died in my pocket, so I turned it back on to ensure it was dead, which turned out to be a bad idea I believe...
Now, the phone won't get past the Metro PCS screen, so I tried going into download mode to flash a KDZ. The links from this guide (or any guide linking to LG's servers didn't work) , so I stumbled upon the KDZ's and 'LGUP' And the KDZ flashed correctly but my phone still won't boot
I tried the TMobile KDZ just to see if it would boot and that didn't work either.
Further information:
I've tried restoring with Volume + Power, but it still didn't fix.
Also, when I power on the phone, after the LG splash screen, it shows the Android dude with text saying "Erasing..." for a brief second then shows the LG splash again and then goes to the T-Mobile screen (where it never boots)
The only way to power off the phone is to let the battery die or take out the battery but it repeats...

Random issues are hard to analyze.
Maybe the USB connector is dirty/wet. Maybe buttons are sticky. Maybe it is a hardware defect.
Best to post more information (BTW I can see no picture). Hopefully someone can help having a little bit more details.

sorry thought I attached picture.
buttons and charging point looks fine to me. just keeps restarting to this screen. if I go into bootloader and select factory reset the phone just vibrates once then come back to this screen.
