What i'd recommend is that you go back to 2.1, unlock your phone, and then restore back to 2.3.

Here is a simple way, it also lets you keep all of your 2.3 ROM and Data :)

Download my 2.1 Recovery Backup from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1110537

put the V20Ebackup folder on your SDCard in the: clockworkmod>backup folder.

Boot into recovery (Home+Power) and go to Backup and Restore and press "Backup" let the backup process finish, then go to "restore" and pick the "V20Ebackup" folder let it restore then "Wipe Data/Factory reset" (Don't worry, your data is saved in the backup you made earlier) reboot your phone, and then unlock it. Boot back into recovery and then go to "Backup and Restore" and choose and choose "Restore" choose the one with the latest date, then you will be unlocked and back on 2.3

Hope it helps,

Jack

Thanks for your answer.

So, I need to come in 2.1 version.

But, I can't use the clockwork recovery because I lost it when I did my first update. I can only change my ROM with fastboot.

Is it possible to come back to official LG ROM with fastboot ?

Mat11
[GT540 Optimus General] JackG256:
Just flash recovery again using fastboot or yaffsexpert.

Jack
[GT540 Optimus General] Mat11:
Sorry I don't explain my problem correctly.

I think the clockwork recovery is well installed, but when I did my first update (2.1 LG official ROM), I lost my boot animation, it's a well known problem, so today I can only change my ROM with fastboot.

So does a solution exist to come back in 2.1 stock ROM ?
[GT540 Optimus General] Mat11:
Hello everybody,

I tried JackG256's method but when I want to restart with the v20E backup rom, I get a boot loop on the LG logo.

How can I fix this problem ?

Thanks

Mat11
[GT540 Optimus General] eoghan2t7:
boot into recovery and do a factory reset and also wipe dalvik cache.
[GT540 Optimus General] Mat11:
I tried these two solutions but I still have a boot loop : LG logo appears and then the phone restarts and again...

Any others ideas ?
[GT540 Optimus General] Danzano:
Do a full wipe or try different kdz version I went with v20d
[GT540 Optimus General] Mat11:
The problem always exists, I did a full wipe and it continues to restart after LG's logo, it doesn't want to load the ROM.

I don't understand what is the problem.

I hope someone could help me....
[GT540 Optimus General] nutterbg:
"Have you tried turning it off and on again?" :D I'm joking. Here's an idea. Try flashing a fastboot rom in download mode(no battery, no sim, nothing - plug in phone holding vol-down) , if you haven't got one already, and then go into fastboot, connect phone and execute "fastboot -w". That should wipe it right up. For the problem with the black screen recovery, and loading see here. I know G translate makes it pretty much gibberish, but it's not that hard to understand. Here are the links to mentioned files:

V20a.kdz

Out.kdz

I hope this helps.
[GT540 Optimus General] JackG256:
I've fixed the backup, you should be able to restore now, just download the new version.

Hi

Here is the ota update i have just received on my azerty ChaCha :

Please try the following procedures.

(1) Delete Superuser's update and clear data.

(5) Run Superuser and allow permission to update its own.

I solved a same problem in this procedure.
[HTC ChaCha] FCW:
Yeah this is what worked for me in the end. its a bit fiddley though isnt it. Oh well sorted now at least. Maybe this should be added to the rooting thread.

Have you noticed that you can move apps to the sd in manage applications. It seems that some people have been supprised that it does it.

pull out battery

turn on odin

attach phone to pc with usb cable

now while holding down both volume buttons put battery back in.

now you should be in download mode and go back to stock with odin from here!

make sure u put the proper .pit and .pda file in there proper places on odin and ur set to go.

DO NOT TRY TO BOOT UP THE PHONE ....then you will need ODIN and JFD stock rom ...set up ODIN ,pull the battery ,and replace it, then press and hold vol up and down and plug in the usb .. the phone should now be in download mode .... make sure you use a pit file and select reportion in ODIN.... hope this helps .....

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jim Mc:
Rooted phone with Unrevoked, managed to get CM7 installed and working, wished to try Cool Kingdom v5, so downloaded the rom and the weather addon.

The instructions under the ROM's official thread in the development forum are pretty lacking, all it says is wipe user data/factory reset and install rom. So I have done just that, using the phone's recovery mode (clockwork) I performed a factory reset then installed the rom and weather addon from the sd card, but when I restart the phone I get no further than the white screen with the green HTC logo, at this point the phone just hangs.

Can someone direct me on what I'm doing wrong, as I've searched for a guide or a howto and browsed through some of the 100+ pages in the official thread but can't find anything relevant.

Thanks,

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XDBNewb:
Hello everyone. I just purchased an Evo Shift from a guy on craigslist who had this phone working with Cyanogenmod 7 and gingerbread. We got his phone cleared off and I went to have it added to my account. Sprint is saying I need to have it back to stock to get the phone programed to their network.

The last tech that looked at it said there is no "Update PRL" on the phone now.

So, as of right now, I have an $180 paper weight, lol.

If someone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it. I've never had a rooted phone, so this is all foreign to me. Thanks in advance!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xHausx:
Welcome to xda xdbnewb,

You can find a stock ROM that will allow you to provision the phone in the Evo shift section. Until you are more familiar with using a rooted phone the easiest way to install it would be through the ROM manager app, all you should have to do is download the ROM to your sd card and then tell ROM manager to flash it.

EVO Shift Forum

Stock ROM - Version 2.72.651.2

Don't forget to go through orientation here :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmvCpR45LKA
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XDBNewb:
THanks for the reply. I downloaded the stock rom to the SD card. And now it's telling me that the SD card needs to be mounted. I've searched the phone and have no clue how to go about doing this.

Hi, I have a serious problem with my G3 (Kyrillos' ROM v5.5). Sometimes my phone doesn´t recognize SIM card during its running. I switch it on normally, PIN code is correct, SIM card is loaded and after some mins or hours it all of a sudden can´t read it and I have to remove SIM and then insert it again. Is it hardware problem or what´s wrong with my phone? Thanks

I have had the Epic since day 1 and within the first 3 days had to return the phone twice. Maybe another week later i had to have my third Epic replaced, mind you they were all brand new from the store not refurbished. The past week my most recent Epic has been freezing, microphone going out, texts being sent 3 days after they were meant to have been.... Well long story short i needed a new phone and ive always owned HTC's until the Epic. I have to say both phones are amazing, the Epics screen is hands down much crisper than the Evo's but the EVO's ram is slightly quicker. I would like the communities opinion on wether or not I should keep the EVO or get another Epic or keep the EVO till the 3d edition comes out which falls under my one month return policy What are the 3d's specs looking like compared to the others and is the 3d even going to be worth it? I have SPB mobile shell 3d and showd it to the manager up at sprint and he said that it is almost identical. Sorry if i ranted but im in a very happy mood right now.:D

One note on the Evo 3g: as of now, the boot-loader is still locked. HTC says they will unlock it. No idea the timeframe.

Ok I got my G2x last month, have it rooted w/ OneSuperClick...(they said, to make sure you're rooted, check to see if u have the superuser icon in your phone, it's there.

So I'm rooted, nandroid backed-up and have the recoverymod flashed too.....

I have tried to flash a few nightly roms (p99_46.zip is the latest) as well as the Eagleblood 1.0.4. None of the install......they start w/:

-- Installing: /sdcard/EagleBlood1.04.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTLuver:
Thnx for the reply. I tought I heard to have the ROMS in external memory card. Cuz, for example that's where clockworkmod backs up your nandroid.

Where do you place the ROMS(most roms have like 3 files in a compressed zip format.......i.e example.....the eagleblood ROM name is EagleBlood1.04.zip when u download it....inside the zip, theres two folders.....META-INF and "system".....a file called "boot.img" and another one called "installbusybox"...so where in the internal phone memory do u put the whole zip folder......?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shinobix37:
put the WHOLE rom.zip on your memory. don't unzip anything.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cybereclipse:
+1 on the post above. redownload the rom and try flashing again.

after you flash the rom, flash gapps (this is the installer that includes market, gmail, etc.) You need it in order to get access to the market

Your steps should be as follows

1. Wipe Data

2. Wipe Dalvik cache

3. Flash Rom

4. Flash gapps

5. fix permissions

6. reboot

EDIT: and don't unzip anything. Place the WHOLE eaglesblood.zip file on your SD Card
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTLuver:
They all say the same....I got them from the cyanogenmod website......even Eagleblood1.04 from here.

funny thing i noticed tho, after I tried installing a rom, but of course it fails, I connect the phone to USB, go to external memory card, try to open the ROM zip file, it wont open....says "X:\EagleBlood1.04.zip The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"

Maybe it gets damaged or currupted during the time its trying to flash the files to the phone???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTLuver:
thanks....where do I get gapps and how do i go about installing it....I need to install it AFTER sucessfully flashing a rom, right?

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] DevCake:
Warning . This DIY is not for the inexperienced. If you have never disassembled a laptop( and get it back together working) or worked with custom DC power applications you'll want to follow the "do not try this at home" rule. It will require some fabrication skills as well, drilling and making brackets. Once I have this perfected I'll be offering a send in MOD service.

First I need to get a Dock, I have to keep mine intact as I use it daily with my demos and android integration services. If you want yours modded for free let me know. I will guarantee you will get yours back either in the condition it was sent or working with the MOD.

For the modders following along, assumed steps.

1. Remove feet from bottom of dock. Guessing assembly screws are there.

2. Disassemble dock and look for space somewhere along the edge to add a small barrel adapter.

3. Find power leads to the battery and solder extension wires.

4. Test that extension takes charge and that factory connector still works to charge

5. Fabricate bracket for connector

6. Drill edge of case to expose connector.

Let's hope it is this simple. =]
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] verkion:
This is a dang good idea...I should have thought of this earlier! Looking at the dock, it looks like the bezel is clipped in as well. Also, the "clamp" part of the dock has some screws in it. Mechanism might be a little bit more complicated but hopefully not. You're going to need an awfully thing barrel connector to make this work. The Bezel is about the same thickness as the TF's bezel.

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] glgehman:
It is an excellent idea!

But I'm thinking. If you can do this on the dock, couldn't you also do it on the TF itself?

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] djdevine2:
I'm sure there will be no room in the tab to do it, would be great if you could though!
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Bob Smith42:
Think I am going to try this mod. Ordered 2nd dock. If I go over-my-head I will contact DevCake for help.

The issue with barrel plug on TF tablet is what to do when dock is attached?

The advantage of barrel plug on dock is charging both dock and tablet, eliminating the need for any proprietary 40 pin cable (because doc has its own), and if you want to screw around the dock costs less (still $150USD is a lot, but less compared to a spare $40USD charger). Still need to consider what to do if barrel plug charging and something plugs into 40pin connector.

I also plan to put in a slide switch to disconnect the dock battery from the tablet entirely to save juice when shut down. E.g. reports of doc losing power when attached. This could extend the stand-by life of the dock for a week or more.

Once the thing is opened up, it might be a good time to discuss placements. Everyone has different and great ideas. I have a digital caliper to measure stuff.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] DevCake:
Go for it Bob,

I don't think installing the barrel connector on the Tablet is a good idea either.

I wouldn't place the connector on the front so the sides IMO are the best location but that will become clear when we see the innards.

The addition of the 40 pin connector while the barrel connector is charging is a big part of the mod. Bridging the power over to the barrel puts both power sources in parallel and this can be bad. When you attach 2 power sources in parallel that are of different voltage the voltage actually will travel to the lower voltage supply source and overload it. Remember any PC USB is 5V, not the 12 or 15 you will supply to the barrel so if the barrel is connected to the charger and the 40 pin is connected to the charger you will send more voltage back to the PC and BOOM! The universe will implode upon itself =/.

So how do we address the possibility of multiple power sources? either with a switch or an additional circuit that shuts one off when it see voltage from the other. The 3rd option is to disconnect power from the 40 pin which IMO is not an option, you want to keep that intact.

Bob if you frequent any DIY forums that deal with these kind of power MODS ask around about a circuit that will do this for you. You might want to start with RC forums, those guys know DC like no other. I'll start looking around but whatever we find needs to be small for sure.

Have you sourced some barrel connectors?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dcmtnbkr:
I would vote switch, just in case the circuit failed somehow. With a switch, you simply cant use both at the same time no matter what.
