[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
Hmm, something to consider when I get another phone, and if none of these companies make a newer, better 3D phone. As with my kickass gaming pc with Nvidia 3D Vision (and having always been an enthusiast of all things 3D), once I experience this stuff, there is just no going back. Nvidia has dropped support, just like LG. In both cases it has been up to the modding community to keep these systems alive. I think if LG and Nvidia would have better promoted these, and put these in the hands of people to experience first-hand, both would have taken off and been much more successful. Why they did not makes no sense. There is no reason Optimus 3D and 3D Vision should not be as least as popular as the Nintendo 3DS, in my opinion.
[LG Optimus 3D] s0aPii:
What do you mean? How can I do it?
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
Power off phone. Press vol. down + power for a few seconds. If it works you will get a black screen with white text. Press power twice to confirm.
[LG Optimus 3D] s0aPii:
Thanks, I will try it.
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
I always have to do that after flashing a firmware; phone sticks at LG logo. Hopefully that is all that is wrong.

Dear Xbsall ,

i have tried evrything as you said but there is no imei in my p920 plz help i give up...plz help by connecting interviewer..plz fix my mobile
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
Xbsall may not answer... he has been on a vacation from LG. All I can say is make sure the drivers are installed to pc correctly. It is critical for good flashing. Otherwise, there are guides for recovering IMEI in General section, I think.

Flashing a stock ROM the KDZ way always fixes IMEI problems.

This is my way of getting into download mode:

You need to shutdown phone and connect USB. To make sure phone is off, press power for about 10sec. While keeping Vol-Up pressed, press power for about 3sec. After you hear the USB connection sound on the PC, you may release Vol-Up. (Depending on your bootloader, you may see the Korean S/W screen, or your screen may remain black).

Are you seeing the Korean letters?

P.S.: It's always better to talk here in the open so that other users may read and learn or even help. I'm not pretending to be an expert just because I wrote a guide and a couple of scripts. Only trying to be helpful.

[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
Use this guide up to the point where you have obtained download mode (the one with Korean letters). Then use my guide and install v30a ICS.

P.S.: Do not ever use Smartflash for the baseband. Our phone doesn't like it.

[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
Most cases of lost IMEI are because of a badly flashed or incompatible baseband. I have been in this situation myself and doing the modem thing as described in the video didn't help. I had to flash a kdz to my phone to make the network function again.

Now, I can only suspect that you cannot flash your phone properly because you are not entering Download Mode the right way. Instead, you must be entering Fastboot mode which will allow you to start flashing but the flash will end abruptly.

So, please, let me (and whoever else is willing to help) know if you were able to follow the instructions I gave you earlier and if you can see the Korean letters on your screen at the time of flashing.

If you see a sliver LG logo, then you are in fastboot which is not the mode you need.

[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
My guess is pc drivers are not fully installed. Maybe dreccon has a better idea.
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
I agree with Drastic00. Try to uninstall all LG drivers, reboot, reinstall drivers, reboot. After that you may try to reflash. If it still doesn't work, try another computer.

Edit: it might also be a good idea if you tried with a different cable.

How do i get to NORMAL DOWNLOAD MODE on LG p920?
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
For download mode: Drivers must be installed on pc correctly. There are tutorials for that, including mine for installing XBSA ROMs. Take out SIM and external SD. Power off phone. Hold volume up. Connect to pc by usb. You should see "S/W" and Korean text on phone screen.

[MENTION=5605666]srkvas[/MENTION] Xbsall is away. He left this thread open as a service to the community. I have never had the ifx modem problem, so I do not know how to solve it. Devs here do this as a hobby, not as a job. I suggest searching more, as I am sure others have had this issue. Good luck.

Assistance Required

Here's my problem.

LG Flash Tool gives me this (starting 13 lines down) at 53 seconds:

"PSI Download start

Req StartA error!

Error WM_PROGRESS_MSG

Error WM_PROGRESS_MSG

FAIL"

It never reaches 1%.

The Tool recognizes the phone at first, but the phone doesn't seem to see the pc. If left plugged in, it will just shut off. Also, if I start the tool late, it will shut off in the middle of "flashing".

It seems that my O3D's S/W Update mode is flawed somehow. I've tried with about seven different cables, XP, Vista, and 7, and every USB port on each pc.

In addition, flashing a KDZ ALWAYS fails at 16% (on the flashing part), and SmartFlash at 55% (but only the FLS, BIN works fine).

I go into more detail here and I'd appreciate it if you could check it out (that is for anyone willing to help).

Thats easy to fix.. you just use your menu key to go to settings and from there format your internal storage.

If it still doesnt work use 3D VOL+ and POWER to get to CWM and from there FORMAT DATA AND CACHE

hi guys,

as some of you know I bricked my device some days ago

and because my vol up bottun doesn't work I had to add a resistor

into my cable that my device was recognized by the pc as omap4430.

So that worked fine I installed the drivers disconnected the device,

opened flash tool selected bin and dll, opened start_fastboot.bat my device

was recognized booted into download mode, flashool flashed upto 28%

my device shut down. So far so good, but if I open now lg flash tool again

select the files press start and connect my device I her one time the connect

sound and one time the disconnect sound and nothing happens any more.

If I put the battery in and connect it then it isn't recognized at all.

With start_fastboot.bat it works well but just to 28%

Please if somebody has an idea post it.

(if i disconnect the cable from the device put the battery in and press the power

button nothing happens. If I connect it to charger nothing happens too)

I tried it with windows 7 x64 and with windows xp both

P920 wishes to go back to gingerbread fails miserably

I've installed the ported ics rom to my p920 optimus 3d and it installed without any problems.

However , because of the bugs and problems with root like google play i decided to switch back. (Not Complaining , keep it up)

Anyway , I used the guide completely and used v21e rom from the guide and came to the "scene" where it's supposed to stop because it restarts. However , i doesn't go into download mode with v21e. I tried 3 times now , it didn't work. So i used the same guide again to flash the ported ics back to the phone. It wen't into download mode. It worked. It got unbricked. Then i tried again (flashing v21e) didn't work yet again.

I'm not a newbie so i know the drill.

And no , it's not the korean version of my phone , it is p920.

No i didn't get confused and flashed the wrong rom.

No , i downloaded the rom twice , it is highly unlikely that this is because of a corrupt archive.

I also didn't flash any basebands , mine was working well so i kept it through the whole process , bricking , unbricking , tossing , picking... (the original one , i believe it was v20d or something)

It didn't cause any problems.

Do you know any specific reasons regarding why v21e would brick my phone ?

I'm thinking it's either about flashtool's p920.dll or there's something about partitions.

Any help appreciated

Thanks in Advance.

Hello, PLEASE SOMEONE SKILLFUL ENOUGH TO CHECK MY PARTITION TABLES HELP ME!

I've taken my old 3D in hand to refresh it. I installed the new jallycream v3 and ran it BUT annoied by the wkpark reboot on poweroff problem, I decided to return to stock bootloaders to make it work for my girlfriend.

I flashed stock ICS BOOTLOADERS AND RECOVERY (with all in one tool 2.1) hoping to see Jallycream working since it was using stock kernel (How can I be so stupid?) .

I firstly got SECURITY ERROR then (i Don't remember how I ended up there ) I saw an android robot with open belly and exclamative point.

I remember trying to turning it off.

After that it is an all BLURRED NIGHTMARE.

Tried every guide, every flashing tool, almost every rom and android version nothing got me pass the boot animation on ICS. The most far point I got was to boot up the MODIFIED V21E XBSA but system keep telling "there's no space available. free space" and almost no apps are shown in the drawer.

I presume something very bad happened on my partition table, and I'm not able to undo what I've done.

Please, I really care about this phone after all these years... I don't want to have it bricked.

I can go in fastboot, korean download mode, boot he XBSA V21E

PLEASE IF ANYONE IS REMAINED HERE, HELP ME.

Thank you so much

EDIT:

Never mind. I did a factory reset from booted recovery of boot21e (the second complete flash) and this time it worked! I upgraded to ICS everything is fine now.

Thanks to XBSA if you're still around, you were my myth :)

Download FAIL!! (181sec) - on the red title frame of the box

error! OMAPFactoryDownload

Error WM_PROGRESS_MSG

OMAP factory download fail

FAIL

All the others steps have runned fine, exactly as it shows the post, my phone is a LG P920h, during the flashing execution, at 80 - 84 % the device screen had turned off, but I think it's normal, I can access the SW screen normally, if I try to get into the fastboot I also do, and installing ClockWorkMod Recovery too, I just can't make this phone runs Android again.

I won this device already bricked from a teenager who was going to throw it into trash. If someone could help me you'll earn my thanks!
