I am currently using Spingen Neo Hybrid and i freaking love it! Doesn't add much weight to the phone, protects from drops (Shock protection built into case) and keeps the phone feeling slim. I bought mine on amazon for 20$ and i couldn't be more happier with the buy.

Diztronic matte black is my vote

Regards.

Ist of all I would like to say why I am opening this new thread so my answer is that I tried my best (by god) searched XDA & Google for more than two days to fiend solution for my problem but can't get a solution so I opened this thread as my problem different from others at this forum.

Story is that I was enjoying my LG Optimus G for last 11 months. Shortly, It was rooted, boot-loader unlocked and running custom ROM namely Thinking Bridge. One day I needed usb otg support so I search for it and fined a mod by XDA member samm_cz at {http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=37896376#post37896376} when I flashed this the phone turned off and never turned on, Now neither I can't access CWM nor download mode even it does not respond to charger the only thing left is that when I connect charger and hold power button a red light blinks near front camera. I humbly request to All my seniors help me to get out of here. Hooping for good response.:crying::crying::crying::crying:
[LG Optimus G (International)] Hardtron:
When he died, had battery?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Nite.Achilles:
Yes it is hard bricked, unfortunately. You need to send it to the LG service centre. Do not attempt to unscrew the cover and open it up to reset the battery. It did not work for me and my warranty almost got voided because they found my thumbprints. However I pretended I did not know anything and they replaced my whole motherboard.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Imran Pirzada:
Thanks for reply brother but I don't know where is LG Service Centrer and I saw its warranty card and unfortunately its warranty has expired. Now my question is that if I go to LG Service Centrer will they deal me as phone's warranty has expired and I am ready to pay for this. My phone was at 75% battery when bricked.

:crying:
[LG Optimus G (International)] Imran Pirzada:
Thanks for reply brother My phone at 75% battery when I got bricked.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Nite.Achilles:
They will replace your phone, but you will have to pay. I'm from Singapore and that time I was told to pay SGD $350 to replace. But I did not pay.

I guess the price may have dropped because of the G2 and G Flex which are the current flagships. Maybe you would pay $250? I'm just assuming.

But for my place, once my warranty ends, I would have to pay $25 for labour charge and additional costs for parts replacment if there is anything wrong.

I had the same problem and I solved it by disconnecting and reconnecting the battery

when red light is blinking check whether your device is recognized in computer/pc, try pressing up button and power button sametime to boot into downlload mode.

if you can do that then flash the teeny bin method to put recovery first...

Its not hardbricked, I had the exact problem, just use the correct driver software specified in teenybin and flash the given image
[LG Optimus G (International)] nch26:
Its HardBricked. You flash some software mod for an Alcatel phone. Is like i flash a ROM for galaxy s2. Obviously it will brick.
[LG Optimus G (International)] mathprav:
it can be still recovered, i have recovered the phone from the same state...( what i believe is this lg phone can't be hardbricked, you can get it back)
[LG Optimus G (International)] nch26:
I dont think so. you can brick this phone. The red led means two things.

1. You dont have battery

2.Brick
[LG Optimus G (International)] mathprav:
well, battery was available, and i had the exact state, only can see the red led, then when connected to PC it showed QHSUSB_DLOAD something

then i changed the windows driver to the one provided by lg drivers( how to do that shown in teenybin thread) then after flashing it i was able to see the fastboot mode and then went into the recovery used adb sideload to restore the nandroid backup and my LG Phone was back to life again....
[LG Optimus G (International)] Pantoudis:

I guys, I've tried upgrading my JasJar with Xda_Exec_Upgrade_v1.30.162, using MaUpgradeUt_noID and when update was complete I cannot load my JasJar anymore. I am using hard reset, but when choosing "0" off the boot screen - noting happens and screeen remains black.

Can someone please help me with this issue?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Best regards,

Try reflashing it again. If it does not work, try reflashing back to the i-Mate ROM.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
Whats the version of your bootloader (the screen with serial at the top changing to usb when plugged into usb)? If it is 0.56 or something else below 0.6 thats an already known problem.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] nigelw:
I had similar problems with my O2 upgrade.

Try:

- Turn off USB in ActiveSync

- Hold Power/Light and press reset button

- Run the upgrade again
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Stazik:
Thank you very much for help and support, guys!

When I try flashing my JasJar with Bootloader update or JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship I get the same error message: Error 101 Connection Error. And also when I disable ActiveSync USB and plug my Jasjar into USB - I get a message from windows saying the device was not recognized...

The only I can get from JasJar is a black screen, except when I press two soft buttons and reset - that gives me a screen with 0 and x to choose. Neither of choices helps thou.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] simon_darley:
you didnt answer the question re the boot loader number.

when your screen is grey or starting to reset, there are numbers on the screen. what are they.

if it is less that 0.6 your in trouble and assistance is different to if your boot loader is 1.0 or similar.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Stazik:
My screen doesn't change from gray except when I do hard reset. And then I hit two buttons and reset, then press 0 the message Clearing now appears and then everything returns to gray again.

How can I tell the version of bootloader in this case?

Thank you in advance!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] simon_darley:
they are hard to see, if the screen is grey, the numbers are black.

f the screen is blue/coloured, the nmbers are probably red.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Stazik:
Thanks for help guys,

I brought my JasJar for service today, somehow they were able to put older ROM in there. Now I've upgraded bootloader, hopefully newest ROM from i-mate going to fit without problems :))
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] stubbsy:
Well I've killed my Jasjar upgrading :cry: I was installing the bootloader update. It sat there saying "Checking information on your device" for about 30 minutes after the update started (notes said it would take 10 so I figured something was amiss - disconnected & rebooted my PC.

Now when I turn the Jasjar on I get the USB/Serial screen referred to above and (good news I figure) it has v1.00 at the bottom. How do I fix this?

TIA
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] stubbsy:
Sheesh. I did a search (I know I should have done that first) and found the answer here

Took a while to find a copy of mtty to download, but found that at http://buzzdev.net

Once I'd done the Set 14 0 and tried the boot loader update again it took seconds so something definitely went wrong the first time.
[Moto X Q&A] spiffytech:
My Moto X now refuses to boot. With stock recovery it'll get past the bootloader, then blink an image of a dead android with the message "Error" briefly, and keep doing so every ~10 seconds. If I flash TWRP, any attempt to boot takes me to TWRP, with log messages reading "unable to mount..." for a bunch of partitions (/data, /cache, storage, etc.)

Can I recover my device?

The short sequence of events: I rooted my phone (T-Mobile phone, unlocked it via Motorola's website) and installed TWRP. Later I tried to accept the 4.4.2 OTA update, but the phone wouldn't take the update, because TWRP. Flashed stock recovery tried again, got stuck in bootloop. Tried flashing back the 4.4 / 140.44.3 images from here, now I'm stuck with a blinking error message.

I see there are a bunch of image files bundled into the 4.4.2 / 161.44.25 update - would flashing those do any good?
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
What version is your bootloader?
[Moto X Q&A] spiffytech:
Version 30.B2.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
OK, you still have the 4.4 bootloader so you should have no problem flashing the full tmobile/retail/dev edition build of firmware. I'd perform a full flash with rsdlite or with fastboot using all of the commands in the xml file in the same order. Do not skip any files or bypass any files if there are errors.

This will reset your phone and wipe all content!
[Moto X Q&A] flashallthetime:
Did you attempt to clear dalvik and cache, I believe you can do it through fastboot

Fast boot erase cache should work . its trying to flash the it's ,so you need to delete the cache where the ota file downloaded to

[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
so here is abit more help here are the full firmware links

T-Mobile 4.4

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=0&file=2

that is the file you need to flash with RSD Lite or Fastboot and it should get you 100% back up and running.

But then if you want to go to 4.4.2 after you flash the firmware before you add anything or install TWRP just update the phone to 4.4.2 then install the custom recovery and SuperSU.
[Moto X Q&A] spiffytech:
I have tried both RSD Lite, and applying all of the commands from the XML file manually, following the directions from here. Both ways, I still get the blinking error message :(
[Moto X Q&A] spiffytech:
The "can't mount..." log messages I get if I flash back to TWRP suggest it could be some sort of partitioning problem, but I'm not sure how to diagnose that.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
And the flashing of all files completes successfully?
[Moto X Q&A] spiffytech:
I could have sworn that I wasn't getting any errors previously. Now, however, after trying to flash system.img (making sure to use mfastboot, of course), I get an error on the phone, "sp space is not enough". Not sure what it means, and Googling around doesn't turn up any answers.
[Moto X Q&A] spiffytech:
Yep, that's exactly what I flashed. Made sure the md5sum matched my download and everything.

Yep, cleared the cache, no luck :(
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
Ouch, it does kind of sound like the partition table got damaged. I suppose you could try "fastboot erase system" and then try to flash the system partition again.
[Moto X Q&A] flashallthetime:
So I guess more warnings into my noobs guide to accept an ota thread

Maybe I should put a notice not to accept the ota and only flash your carriers sbf firmware when available?

I'll go with that plan :) What is it that makes flashing from sbf safer?
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
So if you perform a full factory reset the phone will boot up normally now? If that is the case then I don't see any problem with accepting the OTA to 4.4.2.
[Moto X Q&A] dudds4:
Help PLZ

I had the exact same problem as OP, took the same course of action, and got a successful boot. I do some minimal stuff, check if everything is working, turn on dev mode, etc. I put in my wifi password.

I wanted to check if my bootloader was back to stock, so I turned off my device, and then tried to power on. Pressing the power button does nothing.

So I get into fastboot, and select factory (reset) again. It boots up, but it doesn't seem like it actually did a factory reset, because it automatically connected to my wifi..

Have you any idea what's going on, and how perhaps to solve this weird dilemna?

EDIT: I'm not sure if I actually did anything, but after a couple reboots it just started working normally. I installed the update to 4.4.2 and everything is smooth thus far. :)
[Moto X Q&A] spiffytech:
Eventually the phone prompted me to apply the 4.4.2 update so often the phone was actually unusable - it'd go back to the "do you want to update?" screen as soon as I backed out of it. I was thus forced to apply it OTA. Fortunately, the update went through fine this time, and my phone continues to work fine :D

Thanks for your help, folks!
[Moto X Q&A] ken1645:
Factory = factory reset back to how Moto sent it out. It deletes all data on the phone making it like new. This is what I was going to suggest after reading your thread.

Glad you got it working.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] gksmith:
I just got a replacement Note 2 that has a ZeroLemon battery. Is it possible to add NFC to the battery? I've seen a couple of messages from people indicating they were going to try something but no follow on information. Additionally, there is one review of the battery where the person indicated they stuck a round looking sticker on the batter for NFC.

I know ZeroLemon sells a NFC enabled battery - I'd just like to get my existing one working with NFC rather than buy a new battery.

Any advice or links?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fireishott:
I don't have any pics of mine....but yes you can peel the nfc antenna from the stock batter cover and then use copper tape to make the connection on the phone and then to the receiver and tape it to the back of the battery

Ok so I'm not even sure it's possible but I have a phone I'm not using so I was wondering can I set the apn settings to connect to a Wi-Fi network instead of a mobile network.

Thing is my Wi-Fi get a quarter meg dl n a tenth upload on my pc but 6 megs dl n 2 megs upload on the phone so I tried looking for a way to use it as a repeater but apparently it's nt possible with android so I figured if I used Wi-Fi instead of a mobile network n run my hotspot it may work something like a repeater.

So anyway my question is can I set the apn settings to connect to my Wi-Fi network rather than t mobile's mobile data network

Short Answer. NO.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] nerazull:
Hey good people, after an entire day of trying to tinker with my phone, I soft bricked it.

It started because I wanted a theme, that required CM. So I've browsed a lot of threads and tried some things, and a couple of restarts and factory resets later, it went downhill.

So, P760 20i, running stock 4.1.2, after the last factory reset, I rooted it using this tutorial. I did that in order to install this CWM, to further install CM 10.1, the one I needed. After I did all that and finally booted up in recovery mode, I wiped user data as per instructions in the last link, and when trying to install the ROM, an error felt the need to interfere with my plans. So that's how I ended up with a phone that, if I don't take 3 more pills now, I'm gonna give to the dog to chew on.

It powers on, passes the LG logo, after the screen goes white and it says Under Coding...and the only option is a button to Reset Phone (it's basically a restart phone). A pop-up immediatly appears, saying that com.android.phone has stopped. After I click OK on that it asks for my SIM PIN, it accepts it, and briefly shows a weird, low-res old-looking Android lock screen and then back to the blank screen with another pop-up, asking me about Mobile Networks. That's about all the interaction there is. Click Home button does nothing, clicking Back button just swipes the screen back on the screen, and Menu does nothing. Rebooting from that button is again useless.

That CWM is still there, I can access boot in recovery mode, but to no avail. I've wiped cache, wiped Dalvik Cache, rebooted and nothing. I've tried hard reset with vol down+home then power for 3 secs, release power but still hold down vol down+home until the friendly robot appears, but the result is the same, nothing happens.

During the day I went through more methods, I had a lot of trouble with fastboot which I couldn't get to work.

My question is, based on what I told you, can you instruct me in the right direction ? Also, now that this happened and if it's possible to fix it, could it be fixed with CM installed automatically, or will it be a stock reset and then again back to the drawing board ?

If you need any more details, I'll try to provide, I didn't do much after the last factory reset except for what you see here.
