[Q] Please help,urgent...my optimus cant detect sdcard and usb connection

please help me,after i do app2sd,my phone restart,i tought the app2sd was sucess,but after that my phone cant read the sdcard,i've tried to replace the sdcard with other sdcard,but it still cant detect the sdcard...
and then i think maybe if i flash it,it will recover,but when i connect my phone to my pc,it only charges but my phone cant detect the usb connection...
i've tried to hard reset it,but its still the same...
can somebody tell me what to do?
thanks and sorry if my english is bad

Go to device manager and deactivate LGE Virtual Modem and try to see if your computer recognize the phone

Same damn thing happened to me after trying to install app2sd. i enable usb debugging but i dont get a response in the notifacation bar to say its active. I tried to reflash with the baltic firmware but the KDZ_FW_UPD.exe doesn't see my device (i know i've got the right drivers installed btw). I also can't download any apps from the marketplace over wifi or mobile network(which i don't think is working either).i disabled the lge modem and it still doesn't recognise it. HELP, PLEASE.

Which version of windows are you using?
Try put your phone into download recovery mode, then go to KDZ update tool and select emergency from the drop down box at the top right of the window.
Now flash the rom and it should work.

Jesus H. Christ that was a quick reply, thanks. I'm running win 7 and i'm still a bit of a noob, how do i put the phone into recovery?

Hey, got mine sorted out, you need to deactivate the LG modem in device manager first then put your phone into download mode ( hold vol down as you power up the device and you should see DOWNLOAD MODE ). Then just reflash with KDZ update tool. The percentage bar never moved from 0 for me but , after about 15 mins, my phone rebooted i just unplugged and everything seems ok. The phone mounted the sd card and usb debugging now shows in the notification area.
P.S.
You may have to enable mass storage on the phone for this to work just can't remember if i did or not so try it both ways i.e. turn on mass storage and try flash and if that doesn't work turn it off and try again.
Hope this helps.

Oh, and a big thanks to 'flyboyovyick' for his help on this, Cheers man.

I used to love your ROMs for my old Touch HD.. good to see you now have a Galaxy S!
Not so sure from your posts above what method you have tried. When are you trying to connect Odin? You need to be in Download Mode first, fire up Odin, then connect your phone...
Is this what you are doing?
Also, which version of Odin you using? In Win7 you may need to right click and run as administrator?

The best way is to look on the odin how to here in forum

Brother, use Odin3 v1.7 from my signature & see if it detects? A lot of guys have recovered their phones using 1.7. trust me.

pull the battery
wait a few seconds
put the battery back in
hold vol-down + power + home
You should get into download mode
connect the phone physically to the pc
flash a ROM or a kernel or whatever you desire
I wish you good luck^^

Close any kies process running in background and try again

The jig most likely wont work if the phone is completely dead, you could try a hairdryer it seems to work sometimes. Otherwise its back to samsung.

[Q] <SOLVED>Completely bricked korean ver F320s G2

Hey guys , my not so smart friend tryed to be smart and tryed to flash custom rom WITHOUT rooting, and WITHOUT any recovery :highfive:. Long story short the phone is bricked completely. Mainly it stuck in LG logo for a long time and sometimes it actually load the system but crashes after a few secs, again, to LG logo.
Is there any way to root the phone without going into the system( usb debugging etc)?
p.s.
tryed to do factory reset and the result as above.
Thank you in advance guys!
After 7 hours I found a solution to this insane situation. I never had to recover such a dead phone. No root, no recovery , no backup, no rom on the device. Any way Im proud of myself
If someone has the same problem I might be able to help!

After installing the driver, when the phone is powered off, no. When the phone turn on, no. When the operating system turns on, I dont know, not enough time (phone restarts after a few secs).
I do hear the indication sound from windows that something is connected but nothing turns up..

I did it! wow, took 7 hours ! :victory:
Just so you know how :
1. Need to be in fastboot mode
2.Do like in this thread with the CMDhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477595
3. Then basicly follow the steps here http://choimobile.vn/threads/huong-dan-cuu-soft-brick-lg-g2-f320s-l-k.12932.html
4. Whats important though I think is turn off your computers internet connection, dont know why, but it will fail otherwise.

Step By step
After you collect those DLL & TOT files, here's step by step :
1. Disconnect any internet connection
2. Set the computer time before Juli 15th, 2012 ( I set March 1st, 2012)
3. Double click LG Flashtool. Username, password, and Registration key are on the link #1 post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2396048
4. Insert DLL file in DLL column. Browse to where you put the DLL file.
5. Insert TOT file in Software column. Browse to where you put the TOT file.
6. Click OK
7. Click the GEAR icon, set only port #1 that ticked. Other ports are UNTICKED. Click OK.
8. Press & hold volume UP , while connecting the USB cable to your computer (set to DOWNLOAD MODE). Until the phone shows "DOWNLOAD MODE" on the center of the screen.
9. Open System Properties. Device manager ->Set COM port for LG Handset using port 41.
10. Click Arrow Right in LG Flashtool, disconnect USB cable for 5 seconds. Reconnect USB cable.
11. The FLASH process in progress, wait for 600 seconds and shows green background say "PASS".(In my case at around 86% The phone already worked, the flashtool still did his thing and failed at 90 something percent.Doesnt metter because phone works)
12. Disconnect USB cable and close the LG Flashtool application.

wow props to ya...how did u get the IMEI back?

Why kids messin with phones when they dont know what they doin .. aaahhh

bud same thing happened to me. and unfortunatly there is no fix for this. everytime i turned my phone on i got the little android guy then it would stay on lg screen with blue and green LED. try download mode it goesto the first screen of little blue dots.
since warrenty should not be able to tell anything about root or etc. i sent it in. in the mean time i called my carrier company and they sent me out a new phone for 35$. but i have to send old one back wether it ges fixed or not.
sorry bud but there is no way back from that. even tho your computer gives it a port its not fully booting so you cant flash anything..... here is one last thing you can try................ this could be your only hope.......it didnt help me but it might work for you...

Exhaust all options before giving it up for repair or warrenty exchange good luck and i hope you are more secessful then i was. Altho rogers did send me out a new phone good luck

thank you guys , my phone when on lg logo, and connected to pc, i can see it in device manager under modem as LGE android net usb modem,

bricked phone, tried everything

Ok, I've put my flame suit on, but I swear I have tried everything. I am not a developer level guy by any means, but I've been installing custom roms since the OG droid. But this time I got distracted and clearly made a foolish mistake. I was installing XDABBEB's new rom and I totally flaked out and installed the bootstrap and the rom in the same flash. it obviously didn't work and even though I read the instructions, I tried to restore my rom from a backup. Now the only thing I can do is boot into fastboot.
I've tried a number of ways to get TWRP or CWM back onto my phone so I can sideload a rom onto it, but every time I try to fastboot a recovery file it says that "remote: image is not a boot image" or something. What I have gathered from my research is that I cant install a custom recovery unless I am rooted.
/
So, without a custom recovery and only fastboot at my disposal, where do I go from here?

I hope it works for you. I tried that and flashing TWRP with fastboot but it said that it wasn't a valid boot image. A little research said that happens when your device is not rooted. But how can I root my phone from fastboot alone?

Sorry, what do you mean by "opening window in map"?

I was also in the same boat for 36 h, stuck on trwp recovery, no rom, no gaps in memory... I'm freely sailing now! I did this:
- press together power and lower button to get usb connecting screen, unplugged usb cable.
- LG tools installed and D-802 pilots {for me] installed, plug cable and check pilots again.
- launch in LG tools option for wrong install repair
- wait until the complete rom repair is installed, quite long, and then you win automatic reboot! You just loose root. Ioroot 25 again, that's all.
Hope it works for you chaps.

Yeh try this ... what i meant was when opening windows in adb-map ... windows -explorer !
But try the llink provided ...it will wake up your phone ..! :good:

Believe me before doing any thing using your pc just try to change the usb port first, then let it install the driver automatically(if you're using w7/8)
if windows xp just dont plug your phone remove the old LG driver and then plug your phone to another usb port that the one you have used it before with your phone and install the driver, and then proceed....
Why i am telling you this?
because i had almost the same problem with my galaxy note 2..... it wasn't recognizing my phone until i changed my usb port in download
mode and let it istall the driver......
hope it'll help.......... :good:

Ok, when I try this the computer recognizes my phone as a "USB Modem Phone ADB port" in device manager. But when I follow the directions in the link above if fails at Step 24. It says the phone is not connected. It is asking for my phone to be in "Download mode" in step 17, but I can only get into Fastboot mode. Is that the issue?

Yeah it is. Have you tried getting it into download mode? I was able to when I was stuck with a fast boot

Ok, as i understand it you have to hold volume up and plug the device in while its off. The problem I am having is that the phone is always on. Regardless of what mode I have it in, I can always see the back light glowing. I've searched for ways of truly turning the phone off, but I can't find any info.
Suggestions?

Ok, hold power button until phone turn off, still holding until LG logo appear again, then the phone will turn off completly.
Turn off = Off
(First Off will take a long time, don't worry(about 40 seconds), don't forget: still holding the power button until LG logo appear and the phone Off)
