Do you have P990 or SU660? If you are not sure check the sticker under the battery and report me back. Don't worry we can bring back your phone to life :)
[LG Optimus 2x] sebbo2201:
yeah, true. this device is really unbrickable :)

one of its favours...
[LG Optimus 2x] Patrick Morgan:
What operating system are you using.

are you running each of the flashing programs in Admin mode (for win vista and over)

drivers installed correctly.

using the Back USB ports. (if using a desktop computer)

Using USB 2.0 ports (3.0 ports have been giving others problems with flashing)

use a easy installer rom with NV flash .bat files for easy flashing / brick recovery like topo's ICS rom, or stefan;s GB rom

or try the AIO tool in my sig, to flash your BL / PL and recovery, then flash you rom of choice.

let me know what computer your using, and if your have any 3rd party cables, or usb hubs in use during flash. (these items are not recommended during flash)
[LG Optimus 2x] genemini:
i have the SU660, i hope so. tnx :)

can you give me links to those nvflash? i've already tried tons of nvflash posted here in xda with no luck. always end up with "partitioning error" something like that.

EDIT2: here is the link to the image ( h t t p:// s7. postimage. org/qcvncyvkb/wew.jpg ) just remove the space, i cannot post outside links atm sorry

EDIT3: okay, somehow i got it upto this part ( h t t p ://s1.postimage.org/f602rntq7/wewew.jpg ) but as you can see its still stuck! the numbers are not moving at all :( still no improvement
[LG Optimus 2x] bitdomo:
I made you a little rescue pack. It is for SU660, but works with my P990 as well. Download the rar attached to this post. Unpack it. Plug your phone to the computer. Double klick on flash.bat. After the flashing procedure finished you should be able to put your phone into SW download mode and you can flash stock rom with smart flash. If the flashing fails, I highly recommend to try it again on a different USB port, or on another computer.
[LG Optimus 2x] genemini:
thank you sir, this just brought my phone to life! :D stock rom is the Froyo one?
[LG Optimus 2x] bitdomo:
Yes froyo is one of the stock roms, but you can flash ginger bread or ICS if you want.

V10 is for froyo

V20 is for gingerbread

V30 is for ics

But DO NOT mix stock SU660 rom with P990 or your phone will be dead again.
[LG Optimus 2x] genemini:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smiert:
I'll start off that I'm a novice android user, I got this phone a month ago and before that I was using a Nokia E63. :cool:

Anyway, so I rooted and all that junk, did a factory reset and all that junk, and now my battery is complete garbage on idle.

Before I rooted, when in idle for 8~ hours, the slope was very minimal and I lost about 1-5% battery life. Now, the battery is draining like crazy, to the point where I have to charge several times a day.

I know the problem isn't the fact that I rooted.. but what is!?!

yesterday morning

today morning (15 minutes ago)

Obviously it's this thing called Google Services that doesn't show up *AT ALL* when I was using the phone all yesterday. It seems to only use battery when the phone is sleeping.

Halp!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drawde40599:
kernel

The stock kernel is garbage is what it is , install Franco kernel and forget u ever had this issue , rooting your phone didn't cause battery drain like u said ..... Google services could be anything , check your maps app setting
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
The stock kernel is actually very improved to all other efforts and it sleeps likes baby. I'm willing to bet maps is the issue, but it isn't like the stock kernel sucks THAT much.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drawde40599:
Ya no it dose , i coundnt get over 2 hours screen on time with my normal settings with stock ROM and kernel . screen 70% , GPS , data , Google now , sync all ON . changed to Franco kernel i get 4.4 hours screen on time now , no more heat throttle , no more heat , its smoother , faster just better , something to think about / try , u can always go back just as easy ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smiert:
OK, now this is strange,

at first I thought it was fixed; what I did was update Google Maps. After a few hours, the problem of "google services" came back...

help!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asawoszc:
Keep your phone connected to Wi-Fi while you're sleeping and it will drain much less (I've sometimes seen <5% over 8-10 hours). Keeping your phone on network will continue to "wake it" during the night.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tengen:
Get GSAM Battery Monitor or BetterBatteryStats to get a better look at exactly what is draining your battery so quickly.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] air2k57:
It has to be one of the Google apps running on the background. Like somebody mentioned, get better battery stats to see what's exactly draining your phone. Also, I've noticed that if I keep NFC enabled, some apps that utilize it, will kill my phone way faster. So check NFC maybe, try disabling it and see if it makes a difference.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SleemLDJ:
I suggest you try Franco Kernel since you're rooted anyways.

No regrets.

Swagged out of my NeXus⁴ using XDA Premium
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gaheris:
I can only underline what ppl said in terms of franco kernel. Easy to patch and insane improvement. And it is for free unless you buy his app. I was laughing when I saw those pics with such a low battery life. I always get 6 hours screen on time.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dralways:
6 hours with data enabled the entire time?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksc6000:
WiFi..no way he gets that with data as this phone SUCKS on battery life with 3G/H.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smiert:
Well before I rooted there was absolutely no problem with battery. I use a $15 tmobile plan with no data. I basically use my phone like a tablet. NFC and most other features are disabled.

I'll give that other kernel a shot once I figure our how to do all this...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipL:
Hi

I had the exact same issue, and there is a problem with the Nexus 4 in that some applications stop the phone deep sleeping, even though the same applications have no issues on other devices. This keep awake seems to happen lower down and isn't recorded in Android as the phone being awake. The same issue appears on Franco kernel (I've tested it) as well so that isn't a fix if this is the problem.

Follow my post here to see if you are affected, then work to find the problem app. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36100401#post36100401

If anyone wants to test this with other kernels then:

Download CPU Spy. Reset CPU spy timers to zero, and first check the phone is deep sleeping by leaving for 30 minutes with screen off and USB cable unplugged and confirm Deep Sleep is around 90% or more. Now download Snowfall Live Wallpaper and set the wall paper as active, repeat the above, and see that Deep Sleep is never entered into. Use your favourite battery stats checker and you will find no indication of wake locks. Snowfall Live Wallpaper doesn't even have permission to keep a device awake.

Next set a different wall paper from the stock options (live or static) and repeat the test, note that Deep sleep is STILL not being entered even though the live wall paper is no longer in use. Now from the list of cached processes, remove the cached process for the Snowfall Live wall paper, repeat the test, and now the phone is entering Deep Sleep. So this particular wall paper has the power to stop the phone deep sleeping even when it is a cached (and so stopped) process. Another application that causes this bug is BeWeather & Widgets.

Even un-installing the problem application doesn't return the phone to be able to deep sleep, as the app is still a cached process. This can make it difficult to find the app causing a problem.

Testing these applications on a Nexus 7 and HTC One X causes no issues with the device deep sleeping, ergo, Nexus 4 bug. I'm sure there are other applications causing the same issue.

Regards

Phil
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richieboy67:
It is not garbage at all.

The op must have too many background apps running. Probably has nothing to do with the kernal or rooting..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffsmash:
I have wifi on almost all the time and I get a full day, 5 hours screen on time. I use franko kernel and aokp.

Google services must be something like lattitude reporting your location, or an app that polls data all the time. Even with

auto sync on, whatsapp syncing and wifi on all day I dont have google services anywhere in my battery list.

Of course, it is entirely possible it is something to do with google now, which I have turned off
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smiert:
My "multitask" button menu is always empty. I never keep anything voluntarily suspended in the memory (if that's what your talking about)

I originally hated Google Maps (before I rooted) because it used up about 1-5% of my battery with GPS and all other related settings disabled... no problems at all with battery back then. I basically did the same thing after I rooted, but then I started having the Google Services battery problem, where then I re-enabled most of the Google applications I disabled (maps, books, magazines, wallet) and updated them, hoping for Google Services to be satisfied, but nada.

Anyway, today was TERRIBLE. I need to keep WiFi on all the time otherwise Google Services eats my battery. But at the end of school today, I looked at my phone in horror to see that Google Maps took a huge chunk of my battery (and 3 hours earlier there was no trace of Google Maps in the battery status settings)

Battery life today : the bad stuff started happening once I left the mobile service area. Google Maps did not show up on battery settings before that time.

Keep AWAKE FOR AN HOUR???

still not sure what this is, 5% from this app basically translates to another 30-40 minutes of battery life

acceptable wifi usage

CPU SPY:

I just disabled the Google Location Services, I wonder if that would change anything... could it really be that simple? Unlikely.

As for applications, I don't have many... and I don't have a live wallpaper or anything. I keep my phone on the lowest brightness indoors and automatic outside. I try to save every bit of battery I can, and a useless wallpaper or running application doesn't help with that (I uninstalled a few apps like FB that kept on running in the background)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
Let's start at the top...

If you have switched to an AOSP ROM (AOKP, CM10, etc) they won't work. You need a TW ROM.

If you are on TW, then you don't install them in the normal way. You have to copy them to /system/app and then change permissions to 644 (rw, r, r) and reboot or boot to recovery and fix permissions.

Thanks that worked
[HTC One V] brokenvisage:
Hey guys, I just bought myself a HTC One V to upgrade from an Optimus V on VMs Beyond Talk plan. The Optimus severed me well for a while but the internal storage limitation and general sluggishness of the phone prompted me to update. One thing it handled very well though was running Foxfi so I could tether my iPad to it, which actually became my main reason for using the phone other then internet radio and talking. However, this is something that is not working out-of-the-box on my HTC One V, even using Apex Launcher to reveal the hidden "Mobile Hotspot" application on the phone will not work and does the same thing (allows hotspot to be created, lets devices connect, but does NOT allow internet access to the devices) So before I send this back and return to the safety of my Optimus V I'd just like to know for sure if one of the many root-needed tether apps out there will allow an iPad to connect to a mobile Wifi hotspot created by this phone (not USB or bluetooth DUN) because I see many posts out there that state rooting did not help the issue. Thanks in advance guys, keep up the good work.

Use the settings he mentioned in his post. Your device does need to be rooted but I can confirm that it will allow tethering with no problem on stock ROM.

Thank you!!!! I had rooted my One V today and tried a few tether apps but none of them worked. Remembered I made this thread a while back asking about it and figured I should check it out.

Will still probably flash to something else but just knowing it works on stock is reassuring. Much appreciated!

Hey guys, I have finally found a work around that seems to be working well for me. I had to assign a static IP based on my Droid Razr Maxx's Mac address. I know this is not ideal, but it's something. I hope they fix this problem in the final OTA. Seems to be an issue with the way IP addresses are assigned through DHCP.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yoyurik:
if you are a skilled user check if commands from /system/bin are linked to right places.

had same issue after f reset.

problem was in 'rm', 'ln', 'ls' (and other) where hard linked to /data/local/toolbox which was wiped after f reset.

so I pointed them to /system/bin/toolbox.

now my WiFi and dhcp are back!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sparta10:
Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately, I am not sure how to do that. Is that through the ADB shell? I have never really tried to use commands on my phone. But I would appreciate any hints or guidance.

go to g play, install and start terminal emulator.

type in its console:

/system/bin/toolbox ls -l /system/bin/rm

/system/bin/toolbox ls -l /system/bin/ls

and look where they are pointing to.

it could be:

rm -> toolbox

or

rm -> /data/.../toolbox

if you have second, then you have to fix it as root.

tell me what you have.
