Hi

i tried running the Unlock tool for my XDA2 from o2.

The programme said it appeared to be unlocked already. But when i tried a vodafone sim, it was asking for the unlock code.

This is a brand new XDA...(2 days old), have o2 caught up with the unlocking, or am i doing something stupid?!

thanks

I have flashed avatar rom for my phone (note 2 sgh i137),,,,,,all seemed to go smoothly,,flashed the GAPPS that came along with it.(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2167062),,,,,again all seemed smooth. Once booted up,,constant crashes of various apps,,,,the notification screen is non stop with crash notifications. When I get back into recovery,,,which i can't seem to do from powered off (home+volume keys+power) so can only do it from ROM manager.,,i no longer see the flash zip from sd option,,,only flash from external,,,,,,,Any advice would be appreciated,,,,,,,I would try and re-flash,,if i could get to where i need to be. I have flashed roms before and can usually work it out,,but i'm lost on this one.

re flashed avatar,,worked fine,,,,,somewhere along the way i've lost all of my backed up data-apps,,,in titanium and ROM manager backed up rom. couldn't get contacts to work with avatar,,so I attempted to flash jedix rom,,,all seemed well,,,,stuck in boot loop. I am still unable to get into recovery by using home+volume keys+power,,,,,,,,,,,,sooooo,,hopefully I didn't ruin my phone,,,i'll try a few more times and attempt to re root usin odin.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rockironwebb:
now i'm an idiot

after reading in several places on google instructing users to press home+both volume buttons+ power,,,to get into recovery,,,,i stumbled upon a post that said to do all of the above but only hold the "up" power button,,,i'm back into recovery.

Hi there, I'm a bit set back by the new Google Play interface because I don't see the auto translate feature anywhere. It seems it's no longer available.

[LG Optimus 2x] Jasper_bln:
Hi there, honored experts!

Today I got my precious Optimus Speed bricked, after I successfully restored a recent nandroid backup.

I've been happily running paranoid android for the last months, and often updated the phone with the help of goo.im manager. Today I did a full factory-reset after the CWM upgrade-process, to get rid of the old "disappearing keyboard"-bug. I backed up all my apps and data with superbackup and titanium-backup, and even created an online nandroid-backup (freshly updated nandroid-scripts and patch for my device).

After the reset I had issues to restore everything, since ti-backup often got stuck in batch-restore-processes. Because I couldn't stop the stuck process, it required me to soft-reboot the device a few times. And in the end, it failed to boot.

So I went into CWM, and restored my nandroid-backup. This went fine, and no errors were reported. But after soft-rebooting it, it only showed the LG-Logo-Screen, and nothing else happened. So I tried to get back into CWM - with no luck :(.

I've tried every possible key-combination I could find, and the only mode I can bring my device into is "S/W Upgrade". In this mode it is recognized by my laptop (running Linux), but rustys recovery fails, because nvflash reports:

sh ./flash-recovery-ext.sh
Nvflash started
USB device not found

even though lsusb shows:

# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 017: ID 1004:6000 LG Electronics, Inc. KU330/KU990/VX4400/VX6000

I'm fresh out of ideas - maybe one of you can help me out? Otherwise the only thing I could try now is to turn it back in where I bought it.
[LG Optimus 2x] Obersoldat:
I'm no expert at these matters,but I can tell you from my experience because I bricked mine P990 two times and was able to bring it back to life.

In both instances I used Smartflash, found V30a ICS ROM for it and flashed it over it, and it came back to life.

But when you do this,you will have ICS bootloader and you won't be able to install PA or CM since they work on the old bootloader.

Or you can flash it to the stock Gingerbread ROM https://hotfile.com/dl/168874678/8ea13eb/NVFlash_LGP990_V20Q_EuroOpen.7z.html

And I would recommend reinstalling nv flash drivers before,just in case the error is on your computer. http://www.mediafire.com/?cdgwwgkdozht8pw

[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
Jasper_bin

this device is 99% unbrickable

just go ahead with the

AIOT by SPYROSK

it works like a magic....real magic if you read the opening post and do it properly

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Jasper_bln:
Hi Obersoldat,

I'm currently on the new BL - PA has a spin for the old, and one for the new BL. Is smartflash a windows-binary? Since I currently have no access to a windows-machine :-/.

Hi Make1 and Sreeprajay,

thanks for your recommendation. I'll also hit that thanks button if it helps me solve this, but first I've got two questions:

1st: As said above, I currently have no access to a windows-machine. Therefore I wanted to try working this out with nvflash on Linux. AFAIK this should be possible, even though there would be no nice menu-system. The question is if there's a difference due to the special drivers on windows which are mentioned everywhere? I ask that, because I've successfully rooted my buddies TP-Tablet on Linux with adb, and without any special drivers (which were said to be mandatory on windows).

2nd: What am I aiming for in Spyrosks AIOT? Instantly I'd think option 2B (Change Recovery with NVFlash) might help me. As in ProgMaqs Full-Brick-Repair. Then I'd look into the batch-Scripts, and simply manually execute the needed Steps.
[LG Optimus 2x] Jasper_bln:
Ok, so I dug up my old windows-tower from the attic, soldered a power-cord that I was missing, and fired it up. Took me more than 2 hours - thats what I meant with "no access to a windows-machine".

I ran Spyrosks AIOT, but no luck :(. The only possible ways to save this phone, are IMHO the nvflash based methods. But nvflash on windows reports the same error: "USB device not found".

Yes - I installed the driver out of the AOIT - but it seems that it cannot be activated for my phone. I think it's not in the right state to be recognized as a device that would need that driver, so windows won't activate it.

Attached is a screenshot of how the phone appears in my Device-Manager when connected in "S/W Upgrade"-mode.

Do you still think this phone can be saved somehow? I had high hopes as I read that this phone is nearly unbrickable :rolleyes:
[LG Optimus 2x] Jasper_bln:
Come on, please someone help me. I'm not trying to be lazy here, or have someone else do the searching/thinking for me. I just can't figure out how to solve this - propably due to a lack of experience.

I don't think this is a simple problem - but there must be a reason why that phone is said to be 99% unbrickable. I hope I'm not the other 1% in this case.

Anyone?
[LG Optimus 2x] make1:
I would have known what to do if the pc recognized your phone when you've installed drivers because almost exact problem happened to me few days ago.

Okay, now I will suggest random things :D well, I'm just trying to help :/

I suppose cwm isn't working?

Then about S/W Upgrade mode, have you installed APX drivers? Because when you connect phone in S/W upgrade mode with APX drivers installed then Device manager shows no errors.

You also mentioned that you restored a backup so it means you have latest backup of your system which you wanted to use. Tell me if I'm not correct. Then full wipe of your phone will fix everything, you will just flash a new rom, do the rooting stuff again and then you can restore your backup again.
[LG Optimus 2x] MrAlez:
maybe its because you are on linus, try restoring a STOCK GB KDZ if you are on the old layout, if you are in the new layout use a official LG smartflash, try that on windows and use AIO Toolkit !
[LG Optimus 2x] Jasper_bln:
Hey, thanks a lot! Actually the last Tip did the Trick!

After I downloaded and installed the full LG phone suite, I was able to restore the phone with the official LG support-tool. During the installation of the PC-Suite one or two new drivers were installed, which then lead to the phone beeing correctly recognized by the Windows 7 on the PC.

So to sum that up, and clarify the questions I brought up earlier:

Can the windows Drivers do more than what the native ones on Linux?

Absolutely yes! Only the drivers which came with the PC-Suite made my PC recognize the P990, which it didn't do before. Propably even the special drivers which come with Spyrosks AIOT depend on them (correct me if thats not true).

Can I restore my bricked phone with only Spyrosks AIOT?

In my case that did not work. Even after installing the PC-Suite and its drivers (including the support-tool drivers) the nvflash based methods in spyrosks AIOT did not find my device, which was connected over USB. But LGs support-tool did, and revived the device :).

Hope that helps other people in my situation. The legendary unbrickability of this thing is proven once again :D

Thanks to all of you (Yesyesyes - I'll hit that button right away!)

sorry in my english
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
I don't think you could directly use the camera in stock JB because of difference in frameworks so you would have to search for a ported version or maybe ask whether some of the mod devs to do it for you, but still I think it's rather hard and difficult to do, you will have to contend yourself with something else.

If you're using a stock based rom it would've been easier.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ttrain721:
Is there any way that the reps will go for this? I know people are getting their phones for 199.99 but is there anyway to get the $37(or however much it is) activation fee on a upgrade waived as well?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] majid25:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jejb:
I got mine off the Sprint website for $149, activiation fee waived. But we added it on a new line.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Marty:
Probably can't get it waived in store but if you haggle with the phone reps (specifically "Account Services" aka the cancellation/retention department), they will likely credit it back to you if you threaten to leave (especially if you are a long time customer). You just have to wait for the charge to appear on your account and when you call in, follow the prompts until you get to the option to cancel service and that will get you to the "Account Services" department. Last time I did this, they didn't specifically waive the fee but did offer me a $25 credit x 4 months (so $100 total) and I was obviously quite happy with that. Other times, they just went head and credited me back the $36.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ttrain721:
I've been with them for almost 10 years and have five lines through them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Marty:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] nazman23:
Seen at Target today $199.00 and in stock.

This has worked for me in the past. I flipped the tables on Sprint. Sprint had the phone and they knew I wanted it, so I bought it at there price asked but they would not discount it for me. Weeks later before the return policy date expired I called Sprint and told them I was returning the phone, told them I felt it was over priced and seen others were getting it at lower prices. Now I had the phone and Sprint did not want me to return it, they made a better deal than I first asked for.:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Marty:
Just follow the prompts until you get to the one that is for cancelling service. It may not be in the initial set of options presented to you so in that scenario, simply choose the "for all other issues, press 5."
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ind3lible:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dtninc:
I just picked up 3 Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4's as an "upgrade" to my existing line for $188 with the $36 activation fee waived at Sams Club. Its only available in the stores, not sure for how long.

I didn't trade in my old phones either using the buyback.

Hope this helps.:good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ttrain721:
Thanks for the info. I just called my Sam's Club and they have them for $188 but they said Sam's can't waive the activation fee themselves. How did you get it waived?

Also, I called my local Sprint store and they wouldn't budge from $249. The rep told me he hasn't heard of any Sprint store offering it for $199. I called Best Buy as well and they won't budge from $249 either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dtninc:
Hey, I'm not sure if it was the deal my Sams club ran, however when i bought the phones for $188 he called into Sprint and they waived the activation via the phone. How it works though is I paid it upfront and it will be credited on my phone bill. So in a sense its waived.. just not immediately.

Glad to hear the Sams $188 deal is still going :) :hits thanks: lol

oh and as far as sprint budging .. they will not when I called a sprint store (that was closer to Sams) to see if they would match the offer. The workers there didn't even know how Sams was able to offer it when they have been told they cannot lower the price themselves and told me to jump on the deal. .. so i did.
