Default [Q] Stuck in System Recovery <3e>

Hello all,

I'm new to android phones (my first one) and I didn't find the answer to my question.

I wanted to update my unbranded Optimus 2X (Germany; V10C, 2.2.2) and the software under Win XP ended up with an error message and had to be closed, while updating.

When I start the LG2X now, I only get "S/W Upgrade Please wait while upgrading...".

Now I could jump into the recovery (Power + Vol. down) and after pressing the home button I got into the menu of the Recovery Utility.

I can scroll between the following options with the vol. up and down buttons:
- reboot system now
- apply sdcard: update.zip
-wipe date/factory reset
- wipe cache partition

Unfortunately I can't confirm any of those options. Nothing happens when pressing the power button. The home button hides the menu and all other softkeys are without function.

Can anyone please tell me how to do a factory reset now? I'm all new to this stuff.

The man from the support, who should collect my phone, didn't get here today, like it was announced by LG support.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!!

Best regards from Germany

NVFlash custom recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1229407

Use that to factory reset instead.

OR

Use Smartflash to do the flash the debranded ROM, that should function fine as you have to boot into software update mode anyway.
