Update failed - black screen! - LG Optimus 4X HD

I tried to update my LG P880 with LGMobile support tool yesterday.
After connecting the phone, I clicked on Start updating. A window popped up, telling me that it was downloading.
When it came to the update part, it lost connection with the phone. I did exactly as it said I should do (unplug, take out battery and put in in again, turn on the phone and connect it to the pc), and it restarted with the updating.
On about the same point as last time, the pc lost the connection with the phone. I did the same as last time, but now, the phone just doesn't boots into the S/W update screen.
The phone is NOT booting, NOT working to flash kdz, and it is NOT detectet as a phone, neither by the pc nor the LGMobile support tool, but my pc detects a device called APX when I connect the phone to the pc.
What can I do? And what is wrong?

LGMobile support tool needs the phone to be in normal mode (generaly...).
No SW or other, just turn ON your phone and connect it to PC.

Take out the battery, wait 30 sec. and put it back, press vol- and connect to PC while pressing.

Nothing is working
I don't get the SW upgrade screen when connecting to PC, the phone is an "Unknown device" og named APX under device manager, and the KDZ program cannot find the device.
Is it any other tings I can try?

so if its apx, you can simple flash it via APX mode with nvflash, right ?
(i remember when i rooting my Optimus 2X via APX , that flashed prerooted system.img... so you can try this method)

Out of ideas... you can try to use the official lgmobile tool and use the emergency mode to recover it...

No. That just leads me to the LG Mobile Support tool, and it can't do anything.

Did you try to get SW upgrade with battery in? (I had the same problem)

Yes.
I have tried both with the battry in the phone and taken it out

achieve APX mode and other tricks adhoc

Since this model is new, i assume all facts are new too.
- SAFE mode is started by holding Vol+ and power button at the same time at startup.(adb shell is enabled, nothing is running(single user mode?)
- FIRMWARE upgrade mode seems to be Vol- with USB cable connected at power-on.
- APX mode is started by holding Vol+ and Vol- down at the same time at power up(when pressing power).
* since we do not have a bootloader.bin yet, it will be hard to try anything. can we use htc onex bootloader.bin?
* tegra3 is also locked with a SBK, which we do not have either (i believe).
-Battery mode
Turn off mobile. attach USB cable to pc and mobile. turn on mobile.
- adb reports shell not found and some root details?
im still digging into the fastboot mode, so information can be extracted on the rom rel. etc.. maybe someone already knows?
ill keep this updated, if i find out more.
APX drivers
Do you have APX drivers for 4X ?
not yet, i assume those for asus prime should work as well?
it not work.
@Dexter_nlb
I read that Asus will release NVFlash for Asus Prime.
Do you think it will also work for us?
I believe they for a fully working apx mode since prime got a full recovery using apx mode?
recovery details added.
thanks to 911rsr

Nothing happens. Nothing shows on screen. When i hook it to computer, it makes a noise that it found some device, and in device manager shows as APX, instead of as modem or anything else....
Bricked. APX mode only
Did you find how to fix it?. I have the same issue after a failed upgrade using LG mobile support tool.
No SW upgrade mode, no screen or leds activity, no nothing. When is connected to PC, APX device is recognized. I found some drivers and the APX device is displayed now as "NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for mobile devices". I'm stuck there. I was looking into NVflash utility but after the command "nvflash --sync" only get "unknow device found"
Can anybody help me please?.
How can I get into SW recovery mode or something that shows some activity from the phone?.
Thanks and regards

i guess not much can be done. sent mine to the service center and got it back 3 days later fully functional. i guess it's easier to restore for LG since they have all the tools and magic keys.

NVflash doesn't work, at least after upgrade to JB.
Before give your devices as bricked, try to enter in S/W without battery a few times and after with battery on.
Sometimes stressing the device have some results.
But the best you can do is take it to service.
Thanks gingerboy92. I follow your advice and my phone is in a LG service center now. Hope they can fix it.
I think that's the only safe way to recover it. Looks like Tegra 3 devices have security keys that are unique for each processor and without them you can't go further.
Amigo ruedaslocas, I tried many times to do what you say, unsuccessfully. Thanks anyway.

Lgp990 stuck at logo screen, not detected by windows

Hi there, I'm new here but I have been following this forum for a long time.
Here's my problem:
I own a LGP990 with DJANGO rom. apart from the random stuck in the DJANGO loading screen which required me to reinstall it, it was all working fine.
Until yesterday, when I plugged it to recharge. The battery charged for a while and then got stuck for hours when almost done.
I unplugged it and try to turn it on but since that moment it always gets stuck at LG logo screen and when plugged it doesn't display any battery charging. I then tried to start recovery to reinstall from zip as I did every time it got stuck in the django loading screen, but recovery does not start.
No problem, I thought, lets smartflash/nvflash a stock rom and i'm good to go. Wrong, the phone won't even get recognized by windows, though I installed the driver several times (disabling driver signature as well) and running it as admin; i tried different driver versions, different usb cables... It does not even play that background sound when plugging usb devices...
I'm using windows 7 32bit.
That's it, I have ran out of ideas... anyone got one? (besides sending it to assistance, since warranty is voided)
little edit: whenever i plug the battery the phone start by itself!

I meant to enter recovery. If your phone turns on when you put in the battery, the power button is stuck in a connected position so to enter recovery remove the battery, press the vol- and then insert the battery. If you get your phone to enter recovery and reflash the rom I will tell you what to try to fix the issue.
1.)remove battery
2.)press volume - and volume +
3.)connect phone to pc via usb
4.)download apx driver
5.)(go to device manager install manually apx driver, select the folder where you downloaded and extracted apx ini driver file
6.)flash using nvflash

in AIO you have an option to smartflash roms not nvflash. You need to unpack a KDZ rom and install the ROM via smartflash

mmmmhhhhh..... change usb port, change cable, reinstall the drivers. other than that I am at loss
AIO tool has an option to install Nvflash driver. Its the last option in a different color.
Or you could try to reinstall LG driver. I just downloaded the latest driver from lg support tool today. It works fine.
And be noted that you have to hold down both volume up and down while plugging the USB cable to enter nvflash mode. Holding vol down while plugging the cable in will enter boot loader mode which is not the same thing. Remember to remove the battery first of all.

I have the same problem. I think the stupid thing I did was to install V20a without rooting the phone. Now I cant root it. IS11LG_SystemBackupTest.signed.ap would not run and when I try to recover either with LGflashboot or LG firmware recovery I get the same error message "morning call is empty" (very strange error message). I can go back to v20a but since I am not completely happy with it I would like to resolve it. Is there any chance to fix it? I am not very confident to format bootload or installing custom ROM.

You cannot root the phone on V20a using IS11LG_SystemBackupTest.signed.apk, since that file is used for versions V10x. Check out this link for rooting V20a: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2180688

Uninstall all drivers and folders like "LG United Mobile Driver" and "LG USB Modem Driver".
Re-install the drivers:

http://www.4shared.com/file/ZSMf2x6n/LGUSBModemDriver_Eng_WHQL_Ver_.html
Take out the battery, press "Power Button" (just to discharge all phone components), put the battery back on the phone.
Press "Vol-" and connect to PC. Wait while windows detect the device and search in windows update for possible new drivers.
Windows won't find a thing but will take some time while trying...
After that you should be OK.
Just did similar to my phone and followed the advice in this thread - now sorted. Thanks guys you rock!
if u epic fail to manually force the drivers in just install android jdk open it and update it.

[Q] Optimus 4X HD full brick

I tried to put the CM10 on my phone, after installing the zip in recovery mode, I rebooted the device and it never returned to start. Does not show a single light. Do not enter in any way with any combination. When I connect by usb the only thing that appears in device manager is "apx device." Already tried so many things and nothing worked.
anyone have any idea what's going on?
by the way, I tried a lot here in xda before opening a thread.

No, no, no and no. the only sign of life when it is connected to the pc. Appears "apx" in device manager.
Yeah you are in apx mode, which is basically the boot section of the nvidia tegra chipset.
You should be able to boot normally by unplugging the phone, remove battery for a few seconds, reinsert and hold power button for about 10 seconds
Also try holding power and vol+ (hold them a while) you should be able to boot into normal recovery

I've try that but dont work.
In device manager the apx device is it properly installed or does it have the triangle?
When it first connected as apx device it probably asked you for drivers, i doubt you installed them.
I don't know if the apx drivers for the 04 are out already, check these terms in xda i know some people have been working on them.
Maybe you can find them here
If the device isn't bricked you are in a situation in which you should be able to flash stuff.
For some this method worked:
Try turn off phone
take battery out
hold vol- and put usb cable into phone
if s/w mode starts put battery in and flash kdz
Otherwise check this thread out
or this
I have to go out and can't follow you for a while, sorry

I don't know if the apx drivers for the 04 are out already, check these terms in xda i know some people have been working on them.
Maybe you can find them here
If the device isn't bricked you are in a situation in which you should be able to flash stuff.
For some this method worked:
Try turn off phone
take battery out
hold vol- and put usb cable into phone
if s/w mode starts put battery in and flash kdz
Otherwise check this thread out
or this
I have to go out and can't follow you for a while, sorry

The only way for you to get connected in APX is without battery, connect to PC while pressing vol- & vol+.
Anyway... why you want to do that? APX mode doesn't work in JB.
Ok... I got it.
Did you tried to deactivate the APX device in device manager?
You can try to performe the bootloader unlock again (run adb and connect the phone while the program wait for device...)

Or try to get in SW mode by trying untill it works... (connect to PC while pressed vol-).
Any update on the problem?

No, i think what happened was that all the firmware is erased and this naturally gave access to apx that should be hidden by the software. Probably there was some error when I wipe to put the CM10. I see no other explanation.
The phone is actually mine. Already sent it to warranty hoping they'll fix it.
Resuming, the phone went unexpectadly in APX mode and havent found a way of quitting that mode, couldn't boot S/W neither bootloader.
And btw the phone is carrier locked and to be honest I'm not sure if it might be part of the problem or not. Anyway in about two weeks the phone should be back and hopefully fixed. If not I'll check here for some more help guys, thanks for attetion so far

[Q] LG P970H S/W Screen

Well My sister and her boyfriend were trying something whit her phone, I dont have a clue what the hell they were trying, at the end of the day, she comes to me with her LG P970H with the screen S/W Upgrade please wait while upgrading.
I try to Connect the Phone to the PC with the battery and The Pc makes a Sound and says that the USB is not recognized.
I connect the Phone without Battery And the same happens, Sound and not recognized.
Connect Pressing the Vol - , Same happens
Connect Pressing the Vol + Same Happens
Connect Pressing the both buttons with and without the battery Same Happens.
Allright then its the drivers, I go Ahead and download the Lasted Usb Drivers from LG, Try again and nothing new happen.
Download some Old Usb Drivers, Same thing nothing new happens.
Why and When does the S/W upgrade Please wait while upgrading screen appears. I think I can install another OS or make a Hard reset on the Phone if i can get the PC to Detect it. Its not the Cable and its not the PC. Tried 3 diferent cables and 2 pcs and a Macbookpro. I live in mexico and im phone company its TELCEL if that helps.
It appears as soon as i turn on the phone.
PD: please if you know what im dealing with , write the answer for dumb people like me, its hard to know what you are talking about when using names like ST, KDZ and stuff and english its not my mother languaje so dumb it for me. THX!
You must read this.
And you need the bin and fls from KDZ to extract and root your device(if you want it rooted). Since here you should look for yourself.
A soft reset is keep pushing Vol+ + Power for 5 secs.

Ok, the phone was rooted?, Did you tried the soft reset?, Have you removed the battery and turn it off by 5 mins.(not necessary 5 mins but just an aproximate)?

I think the phone was rooted i really dont know i think they were trying to update the system. I tried the Soft Reset Nothing happens, I think its not charging anymore it will only turn on when i connect the Usb cable. I tried removing the battery for 10 mins and tried again all steps. My Problem its that the pc Detects that theres an Usb, but it wont recognize it.
After i plug in the usb cable to the phone and i disconect it, it will remain with S/W upgrade screen for a few seconds before turning itself off. I cant turn it on by the power button.

Yeah, I mean, the only freaking thing that wont work its that my pc and laptop detect when i connect the Cable to the phone, but it Wont Recognize The Usb and when i enter the SFT theres no Communication Driver. Like i said i have downloaded old and new ones Usb Drivers for the LG but it still wont detect it.

And if you connect it to the PC normally?
Does your device manager show nothing at all, or does it maybe show unknown devices and you only have to install the drivers manually?

I had similar Problem when using a 64bit-os. if so, try to reboot with disabled check for Driver-signature.
Just press F8 during bootup. if you get a promt fo selecting boot-device, press enter and quickly hit F8 again.
when System is booted remove the Batterie, press and hold vol+ and connect to usb (Batterie is still removed)
now my OB was detected with S/W Upgrade Mode

It says Usb Device Not Recognized, Unknown Device, One of the Usb Devices has Malfunctioned and Windows Does not Recognize it.
I have tried to Install Usb Drivers and everything and The pc Still Recognize the Phone. The SFT has no comunication Device because the pc its not recognizing the usb so i cant do ****. xD

Nope, Didnt work i even uninstalled the Drivers and Reinstalled both old and new usb drivers for the phone and rebooted each time to see if it worked. Same problem. Dont know if this is important but the S/W update screen appears without pressing the Vol+ or Vol - or both.

Are You sure you disabled Driver Signature Enforcement.
this must be done every reboot you do or your phone will not be recognized in S/W Upgrade Mode. After flashing with SFT it is not needed. Only for flashing in S/W Upgrade Mode.
The currently available drivers work fine with x64...
I never used SFT on x86, and I never had a problem. I didn't even need to disable driver's signature enforcement, ever.
What's weird here is that his phone boots in to S/W upgrade mode without any key press. It seems to me that now you got there a flashlight...lol
