I got the same results even when not holding vol up and down. But I'll try Memhis link.

Yeah sorry I'm just really worried right now. It's not really my phone, so I'm trying to get it fixed quick. Thanks for the link:)
[LG Optimus 2x] itsanden:
It doesn't work! The phone is stuck in APX mode! Doesn't matter what I do, if i plug it Windows says APX. There has to be a way! But the phone doesn't react to any buttons, whatever I hold, or do, it's still in APX mode and dead.
[LG Optimus 2x] Skyfall007:
install lg drivers and flash kdz firmware and then root the phone!
[LG Optimus 2x] mrgian:
on the first post, i had the same problem a week ago. what fixed my phone was flash stock ROM using smartflash, with the .fls and .bin file. its just like newly bought phone after the flash. hope it helps!

Which is the same problem as ITSANDEN

Thing is, I ran xda forum end to end looking for people with same trouble as I and I could not find any help. It's like a loop! LOL:confused:

If nvflash doesn't work use Smartflash, and vice versa.... LOL :frustrated:

Anyway, I'll keep looking.

---------- Post added at 08:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

Unfortunately SmartFlashTool doesn't work since the phone is running in APX and doesn't create port connection that SFT software can recognize.
[LG Optimus 2x] xtrustkillx:
Try to nvflash whole rom not just recovery. Ie pauls v10b. I hope it will work for you.
[LG Optimus 2x] mdjpinto:
I tried both!

When I do the whole rom procedure it gives an error message, but since the cmd window closes right away i can't copy (or i am not aware of a way to retrieve the text....).

Supposedly after NVFlashing the whole ROM I should unplug the cable, install the battery and boot the phone.

At this point the phone doesn't boot, or at least nothing is showing on the screen.

Volume down+ power also doesn't work so I cannot do to CMW.

Do I need to send it to LG?

Thanks for your help anyways!

Actually I managed to keep the CMD window open and this is what I got:

Can you enter fastboot now or still stuck in apx? Just in case: Turn off the phone. Remove battery and

hold it removed for few secs. Put it back and press and hold vol - and power button. Keep it pressed and then try smartflash.

Still stuck in APX.

SmartFlash keeps not detecting it!

Thanks For Helping out!
[LG Optimus 2x] xtrustkillx:
Thats strange. Try to nvflash again without sim and sd card, different cable, different usb port (prefere those which are directly on motherboard on the back of your pc). Just a bunch of ideas.
[LG Optimus 2x] mdjpinto:
Totally strange!! Now I tried again to nvflash with modaco's [ android.modaco.com/topic/335474-25-mar-nvflash-stock-rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15032011/ ]

But afterwards, it booted LG logo and sound and nothing else. I waited 20 minutes for something to happen until I removed the baterry and turned on again. and LG Logo only....

Then, I tried to battery off and volume down+data cable and i could smartflash. as result it booted once, No LG logo with blue halo but sound played, and again nothing happened for another half hour until i turned off and NVFLashed again and bricked the phone again.

So, now, back to step 1, My phone is stuck in APX and I don't think NVFlash will solve even if it works after 30 tries.
[LG Optimus 2x] JasonBourne.Qc:
Maybe I have the solution:

Just download the right version of stock gingerbread, check this link:

http://www.todomovillg.es/elforodehomero/index.php?topic=317.0

With this .kdz file, you have to use the KDZ Updater and the LG driver.

Download the latest LG driver here and intall it right after: http://www.lg.com/ca_en/support/mc-support/mobile-phone-support.jsp

UNPLUG your phone before installing this driver.

And the KDZ Updater here: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=420545&d=1287222698

When that's done, extract the KDZ Updater folder on your desktop.

1. Open it and install the msxml.msi file.

2. After that, run the KDZ_FW_UPD.exe

3. In that software, you will choose Type: 3GQCT and the PhoneMode: DIAG

4. Choose your recently downloaded .kdz file but DON'T LAUNCH SOFTWARE UPDATE yet.

5. PowerOff your phone and pull out the battery.

6. Hold Volume Down and plug in it to your computer with your USB cable.

7. Your phone must be in S/W UPGRADE Please wait while upgrading...

8. When that's done, just push the Launch Software Update button.

9. WAIT until it reboot and put your battery in.

10. When kdz updater finish, unplug your phone and Enjoy. :good:

Hope that help.
[LG Optimus 2x] Jenkis:
I was trying your solution, but no luck.... I got in KDZ updater : connecting to phone. PHONE WAS NOT FOUND! Finished. any idea? I installed LG drivers, my phone is stuck, no power on, no volume down + power .... looks like its fully bricked, please help me guys :(
[LG Optimus 2x] DKH6789:

Use nvflash in this post, I used to have a half-brick O2X but this post saved me

Try to use stefan's ics nvflash version, i think his thread is on page 3/4, then boot it up, if you're planning to use cm10 with the new bootloader use aio tool, or you can download the stock gb/froyo from modaco then nvflash it

Hallo all,

I got a friend that got a LG 2x.

But now the phone is stuck in S/w Upgrade mode after trying to upgrade to ICS.

Now im trying to fix this phone.

So i got LG drivers installed, but the LGMobile Support Tool is not recognizing the phone.

Im on windows 8 64Bit and did instal the drivers in compatibility mode windows 8.

Can somebody tell me how i can the phone working again?

Kind regards.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmcfalls:
This all started yesterday morning. I had my alarm set, woke up later than I needed to with a notification on the phone that said Alarm Turned Off After 10 Minutes, telling me the alarm had gone off for 10 minutes and was automatically turned off.

I thought it was weird so I did some digging and it turned out that NONE of my sounds were working. The volume was up, silent mode was off, but I was getting nothing whatsoever from the phone speaker. Even speaker phone wasn't working. Headphones worked fine. It seemed my speaker had blown.

Well, later in the day (as I was preparing to take it back to Verizon) it just randomly starts working again. All sounds now seem fine.

So I set my alarm this morning. And this time, it didn't even go off, at all! I woke up 5 minutes after it was supposed to go off, and when I unlocked my phone, THEN the alarm started going off. It's almost like it isn't coming our of deep sleep to sound the alarm.

Are these two issues related; the sound issue yesterday and the alarm issues both days? Has anyone else experienced this? It seems to be random...sometimes I can replicate it, other times I cannot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilirose:
There's another thread about this somewhere...try a search for "alarm". It's happened to me often enough that I can't rely on my Gnex as an alarm clock...I have to use my old SGS instead. I've also had loss of sound occasionally, but a reboot always fixes it.

Wish someone would figure out a solution, it's pretty annoying to have a bug like this in the alarm. Even the cheapest, crappiest dumbphone you can buy comes with a reliable alarm app, but my expensive smartphone does not? :confused: (and yes, I've tried other alarm apps besides the stock one...they all fail to go off intermittently.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmcfalls:
Thanks for the input. I use my alarm daily and this is the first time I've had this issue.

As an aside (but perhaps related issue?), my gmail app has uninstalled itself and I can't get it reinstalled. Looks like it's time for a reflash.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Johnny Oz:
Yes I would reflash before you miss a flight or the interview to your dream job!

One thing I miss about my old blackberry is the alarm. Put it in the cradle and the time would dim, all notifications would turn off and the alarm would fire every time, every when the battery had been drained and switched off. Pity everything else sucked...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
I've yet to have a problem.

Maybe you're getting SOD's (or close-to) in the middle of the night and the phone is having trouble waking itself up?

Try adjusting your governor and turn your undervolts up if they're enabled.

I am, however, fairly OCD about my alarms...

I reboot my phone before opening the alarm app and ONLY the alarm app...

Make sure the alarm is enabled...

And turn the screen off.

I've done this since my OGDroid days.

I also have the trusty DX as a backup...set 10 minutes later; just in case.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] brantje:
Hello,

I would like to know if its possible to change the power mode via shell commands.

I want achieve that tasker switches to power saving mode when the display is off.

Anyone knows how to do that?

Regards,

Brantje
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
you could probably make something with gscript or scriptmanager to accomplish that. the files you meed to make the script point to is in /system/etc I believe.

on another note, I think it doesn't matter what power mode you in when display is off. all modes will go into low powersavings then kick into deep sleep. no advantage over the other, as far as display being off goes. I would think. you can get a free app, here in xda, called better batter stats to see how your device performing with display off and you could also get free app called CPU spy to see how long your device stays in different speed frequencies.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] soumen08:
Ive just accidentally broken the headsets that came with the phone, and now Im looking for another headset.

The problem with our phone is that the pinout (the mic and ground pins) is inverted in comparison to samsung, LG, HTC etc ). Therefore, we cant buy just about any headset. Also, I want a wired headset (not a wireless one).

Is anyone using a wired headset in which the button works? I want to be able to take and drop calls, and long press to skip track (which would work if taking and dropping calls works).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Schrauff:
Yes, I'm using Jabra Chill headset (got it new for 10€), the pins on the jack are the same as original Huawei headset. Also I'm using Headset Button app, that can emulate multi button headset, so I can skip tracks, forward/reverse songs, etc.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] soumen08:
Thanks for the info. Just needed to know one more thing. Does the mic work as well? Can you use the button to receive calls? Also, do you have a u8800 or one of the variants? Is there any difference in the pinout for the u8800 and the variants?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Schrauff:
Mine phone is U8800, my brother has U8800 pro. Both phones have same pinout. The microphone and the button is also working. If you are using the Aurora rom, you should also tick "use headset microphone" in sound settings.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] VuDuCuRSe:
Do you know a headset like the one you pointed but in-ear?

Those are better at isolating the ambient sound.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] soumen08:
Ive ordered one. Lets hope it works out when it is delivered. Thanks for the help Schrauff.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Schrauff:
Maybe these? http://www.jabra.com/sites/mobile/na-us/products/pages/jabrarhythm.aspx?tab=support#UID6

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] VuDuCuRSe:
I'm also found the a-JAYS One+ which is a great looking headsets with a flat tangle-free cable and has a mic+button.

Here's a nice review: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...and-performance-without-a-hit-to-your-wallet/

Anyone tried one and can confirm that the button works?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] soumen08:
Just got the Sony Ericsson MH-650. In ear, perfect noise isolation and the button works quite well. Awesome sound quality as well. Thumping bass and crystal clear trebles :)

Totally recommended for everyone. At Rs. 1500 (do your conversions, I'm too lazy), theyre really nice.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] VuDuCuRSe:
Just bought a Novero Brooklyn Wired Stereo Headset with Mic http://www.novero.com/collections/music-headsets/brooklyn.html but it turns out that it's not compatibly.

I listen only one channel on both phones and when I click the button I listen regular stereo.

They seem to be great headphones, but not compatible with our 8800.

Crap :(

Found this life-saver converter:

here

It switches the Ring2 with the Sleeve. :)

Probably there are more cheaper version on ebay/dealexterme.

Apparently our phone has Sony Ericsson Xperia compatible pinouts, not iPhone compatible.
