try this

different with GB bootloaders

volume up + power for download

volume down + power for recovery

and also try this but try the method above first.

power off phone

pull out battery

GRAB THIS STUFF : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1047087

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 tar file in pit and the .pda file in pda in there proper places on odin and ur set to go.

Enjoy and also make sure u have the proper samsung drivers
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trailblazerz11:
The download mode keys are different sometimes with GB bootloaders. For me it was Hold up or Hold down then plug usb in.

Then just odin with the 512 pit and jfd tar. Make sure re-partition is unchecked.

If all else fails and phone seems hard bricked you can get a riff repair. A guy did it for me on ebay for 35.
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
Just FYI. Wandered into Radio Shack in C.A. today and the dudes offered $165 for my Evo 4D on trade. That's way better than Best Buy and better than Sprint. $35 total for the 3D, plus tax.

And these days it is not easy to get much more than that for a used OG on Craigslist or Ebay. There are a million used ones available, and the prices have fallen.

My OG was rooted and they did not notice or care.

[EVO 4G General] thlinx:
I think I'm gonna hold on to my evo.,. Its not like I'm gonna be doing Auto cad on a phone anytime soon. The 1ghz processor is more than enough for what it needs to do. And personally the whole 3d feature is just silly. 3d's been around since the beginning of man kind, but we act like its the newest and baddest fad ever!
[EVO 4G General] Cares:
It might be silly true...but 3D on a phone has not been around since the beginning of man kind. It is new...

That's like saying "OMG COLOR TV?! COLOR HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE MANKIND...DON'T NEED A COLOR TV"
[EVO 4G General] thlinx:
The technology might be new, but the idea is very old. And yes T'vs have changed dramatically, but 3d is pretty much the same. You still need those uncomfy 3d glasses to watch a movie. Might I add I went to see transformers and 3d, and I wonder why these 3d glass makers haven't looked into making them fit around people with glasses?
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
You do know it's glasses free 3D right....
[EVO 4G General] proalsren:
Is this like Sorround sound with only two speakers?
[EVO 4G General] thlinx:
I'm making a generalization statement that 3d as a WHOLE is an OLD concept.
[EVO 4G General] Jfree3000:
On a side note, I saw Transformers in 3d yesterday as well. Waste of money IMHO, barely any 3 effects till the end of the movie.

[EVO 4G General] Stoichiometric:
I agree, I spent $68 on tickets for me, my wife, and 2 kids to see TF3 in "IMAX 3D". After the first few scenes the 3D broke so my left eye looked like it was shaded very dark for 15mins. They got that fixed but I certainly didn't experience any "stunning 3D effects".

I did get quite a headache before it was over. I can't say it was the 3D for sure but reading online I'm not the first to complain about this with IMAX 3D.

I wish they would sell the EVO 4G+ here, that's a nice device without the 3D stuff.
[EVO 4G General] mbaseball3:
Hmmm ok outside the box here, but what about getting the shell of the Evo + and moving the internals of the 4g over to the Evo+.....I know things probably wouldn't line up right but worth a shot.

[EVO 4G General] erik077:
I tried 3D over the weekend and I don't want it. Only cool thing is 3D games, rest of the phone is same as mine (just cost more) since i have Kings 3D rom.

Actually, mine is even better since is rooted :)

Only phone that can make me change my mind is Samsung Galaxy S2
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
I don't care about 3d. I got it because it's more narrow than the original, and therefore easier to hold and use one handed. Also the screen is higher contrast and It's overall faster. So far, so good.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
I'm updated to GB and can't revert. I think I know the answer to this because I've been watching superoneclick like a hawk waiting for version 2.0 but no sign yet. I just was wondering tho, if there was some serious forceful way to wipe my g2x and flash stock rom thru nvflash?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
I too am waiting for a way to root the update. I don't like flashing roms that are not from official sources (lg, T Mobile) not that there is any thing wrong with other roms I just prefer official stock rooted with my own tweaks. Hopefully soon one of the great developers here can figure it out
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
There's nandroid .zips out there for stock (2.2), restore to that then do as you will.

NVFlash isn't bothered by updates of any kind, so if you've lost custom recovery just re-flash
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
the first 2 posts in this thread make my head spin. luckily for me, i'm the most interesting man in the world.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
you can't revert to what? and why can't you? who or what is stopping you? you don't flash roms through nvflash. just recoveries. i know the o2x can flash roms with nvflash, but i'm not sure about g2x. correct me if i'm wrong.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
so, you have the update, and you're not rooted yet? what are you waiting for?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gpmartinson:
There is a ROM that is a rooted stock update. Its very easy. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179748

[T-Mobile LG G2x] gpmartinson:
good one crazythunder!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
i am unable to root by way of superoneclick and as far as the xda forum i refered to to root my g2x before i updated thru lgupdate these steps just dont work anymore. i cannot reroot my phone after having lost root
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
i cannot revert to froyo 2.2. i cant revert because i lost root, so no more clockworkmod recovery and no success rooting by way of superoneclick. stock bootloader and gingerbread update on my g2x is stopping me

thank-you for your time crazythunder
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
just reflash clockwork mod with the one click flash app. then flash any rom you want.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
Ok, if you have not been able to figure out how to do it with all of the posts written here, all of the stickies, all of the replies to your pleadings, then PLEASE...don't root. Keep your phone just as it is, or have T-mobile replace it with a stock version, as you don't appear to have the capacity to successfully mod a cellphone. I"m sorry to be harsh, but seriously...pick a different hobby.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
after doing this stuff for years,and pc tech support online as well, i don't think i'd be cut out for phone tech support. eventually i think i'd just snap and flip out on someone. i try my best to be patient and helpful. but it just drives me nuts having spent YEARS reading and experimenting, only to see others wanting to be spoonfed(not intended towards anyone in particular). looks like you're in the same boat? lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
thank you for your condescending advise. i hope one of the xda mods makes you xda police. and i hope the baby your wife is expecting is born healthy and energetic.

to reiterate i cannot flash anything thru nvflash(clockwork nor stock froyo) and i cannot root with superoneclick. i updated by using a KDZ_FW_UPD.exe app that was linked in these very forums. this app apparently is translated from korean. i was not able to flash the new .kdz version by normal means--i had to go into the submenu "read phone information" and click "upgrade start" there...that installed gingerbread and unrooted me.

rather than evoke more eager and stoic xda members' attempt to distinguish themselves as intelligent comprehending human beings i simply instead wish for my thread to by deleted lest this be another blight on our holy xda forums g2x section where from nothing but the best forums posts stems from. because we could probably use another "what do you think guys? should i trade back my sensation for the g2x i once owned already now that gingerbread::drooool:: is finally out because i didnt know there already were gingerbread roms out there and instead i just had to tell the whole world "goodbye lg, never again, cry river?""

i am still on my first g2x and have never called tmobile complaining about screen bleed or anything else that seems to be only perpetuated by retarded threads in this g2x general forum that i sift thru on a DAILY basis while trying to find useful information and possible help out someone with advise from my own experience in similar situations
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
1.-to reiterate i cannot flash anything thru nvflash(clockwork nor stock froyo)..

.stock froyo is flashed through cwm, not nvflash. why cant you update? be more specific. error messages?

2-.i had to go into the submenu "read phone information" and click "upgrade start" there...that installed gingerbread and unrooted me.

i updated the same way, then flashed back to cwm. nvflash gave me issues,although it always worked before, but one click flasher app flashed it fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
i am holding the volume up and down buttons just as the instructions says and just as i did when i originally rooted back when my phone was running stock froyo 2.2, back before i updated my phone to gingerbread and the new baseband. but i just get the message that there is no communication with my device
[T-Mobile LG G2x] scooter247:
Check device manager and see if your phone is detected there. You may need to reinstall the drivers
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
uninstall all lg drivers. reboot. reinstall drivers http://www.lg.com/us/support/mc-support/drivers/LG_T-Mobile_Android_USB_Driver_v2.2.zip
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bluedart:
@Daffydukc, I had the same issue. The good news is that since you already updated using the LG tool, you have the newer baseband. Right now, the "hard part" is getting CMW through NV flash back, which will let you flash whatever rom you want. I suggest the pre-rooted version of the same gingerbread update from xboarder56 over here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179748

For now, try what crazythunder suggested and uninstall the LG drivers that the LG update tool might have deposited on your system and reinstall the drivers that worked prior to your update. Take out the battery, hold down vol up AND vol down, plug in the usb cable and see if your computer see's your phone. If it doesn't work, try again (it didn't work for me the 1st time either)

I'm now rooted with new baseband and liking it so far, goodluck.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
THANK YOU!

great advise with the uninstall and then re install lg drivers i had not considered lg update tools overwriting the drivers that allow flashing CWM with drivers that arent really conducive to flashing CWM. i did that, and i read somewhere a suggestion to press the power button as well as the volume buttons.

i cant tell which of these two things was what did it for me but i'm so grateful for the help. i was sure to hit the thanks button for you guys!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jokyla:
The picture you post here tells everything you need to know about you. Common, everyday people, who are not tech savy at all would also like to enjoy the best phone/firmware experience possible on their devices. Your comment was extremely disrespectful.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
I dont think he is being so much disrespectful as much as he is being irritable to the fact that people want things spoonfed to them, i mean look at the rom manager app for christs sake? you dont tune up your car without knowing how to do it yourself so whats the difference with a phone? It is just the fact that if you dont know what you are doing through and through then dont attempt it because nobody is going to feel sorry for your speed bumps that you dont want to solve...

Hahahaha I totally feel your pain... i get calls from like my grandmother and parents asking for computer troubleshooting and i want to just snap on them after 5 minutes because usually the question they ask, i spend 10 seconds on google to find a step by step guide to fix what their problem is...

only time i really ever ask a question is if I am just completely stuck or ive searched far and wide for information... like the whole conversion to EXT4 with the trinity kernel and then not being able to go back to EXT3 drove me nuts for like an entire afternoon before i figured it out haha
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yea man good to see u got everything working see all in all it was simple flash update with kdz, as u did, then get recovery back and then just simply flash or restore a rooted rom, which = a rooted custom rom with new baseband, i to was having trouble but i couldnt get lg's stupid update tool to work, i always knew tho once i got it to work all i needed to do was recov, and restore one of my backups, so anyways got it to work on another computer and the whole proces literally took about 12 minutes , from lg tool to restoring a rooted rom with the baseband, so running into problems does happen just remember dude go back and read some posts and search around thats how i knew it was safe to flash recovery again and restore a rom that i had , also want to say thanx to crazythunder and sincest for the help! u guys are awesome
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
Guess I'm waiting for a way to root the stock LG gingerbread rom. And no I'm not looking to flash the rooted stock rom that someone posted. I want to root the rom that I installed with the LG update tool. And unless I missed something that is not possible yet.

I have flashed custom roms on my last 2 phones. But I found I'm happier with stock rooted
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
dude i think this might work just flash nvflash ok, then make a backup of your rom, then go ahead and download xboarders rooted stock 2.3.3 rom flash that boot into it, then go back into recovery and wipe data wipe cache then wipe dalvik then restore the backup u made root should stick because it is system , kinda like how we restored our backup and attained root, but bro i dont get it xboarders rom is bone stock rite from lg just with root all u would have to do is download it wipe cache wipe dalvik then install, and all ur apps and data will be fine and everything will be the same plus u will have root, that is the easy way . so whats wrong with that??? still the same rom u have just root lol, like i dont get it no one can get root working with any root tool and u wanna wait for that? u will wait forever dude just do the way i said, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash xboarders 2.3.3 stock gb rom and bam u have root and u will keep everything and baseband too, so what is the disadvantages??? nothing!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
heres the rom it is totally stock just how lg made it but now it has root http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179748
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
use nvflash, pull battery out of phone, hold the power button + volume buttons, plug usb cable into your computer & phone, and then flash clockworkmod onto SD or phone memory whichever you want. worked for me :)!!! after i updated and up until i did this attempting to restart in clockworkmod recovery started up stock lg recovery instead, and it would just factory reset me. i dont know how i lost clockwork but it turns out i never actually lost root(i didnt need to use superoneclick app)

i then flashed the stock GB that you see above which sarni84 posted
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
Yeah I'm not sure why I haven't done it yet. I've done it with past phones but now I've become paranoid of messing it up since I can't afford a new phone. Maybe I will work on it tonight. Thanks for the advice
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
Just wondering with the way the internal memory is partitioned when I wipe data will I lose everything on both partitions
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
No just system data pertaining to the android operating system. No other data such as pictures and music are wiped

Edit: I am assuming you are referring to the CWM factory reset/ data wipe option
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sellingfear:
That did not work to keep root. Once I restored my back up I lost root kinda weird I thought that would work to. Guess I will just stick with the rooted stock rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oregondave:
noob says

I see lots of references to "CM" and then i also see references to cyanogen mod and clockwork mod...is there a difference? Same thing? Sorry, coming from being pretty familiar with Windows Mobile ROMS to Android...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
cm always refers to cyanogen mod. cwm is clockwork mod recovery. cyanogen mod is a modified firmware/rom for your phone. cwm is a modified recovery for your phone,enabling you to do full backups as well as many other magical things.
