Hi guys, here my friend and I are pretty new to G2 stuffs so forgive us if we did or ask anything stupid here. Right now we're kind of in trouble coz we can't get our G2 to even turn on now.
We bought the F-320L version, which was changed to D802 already when we purchased. We tried to get TWRP onto the device so that we can start having fun modding stuffs, but then this where we're stucked now.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2472223
We are totally clueless on the 1st and 2nd method so we chose to try the 3rd method.
After running Flashify, we selected Flashboot, and then that's it. The phone freezes since then, at the screen as attached image.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/0jr84jmzipl8abx/20131016_230129.jpg
Now we can't go anywhere except this screen at all. Even unplugging the battery and inserting it back in, it will return to this screen.
We can still go into Download Mode, but we're so clueless now that we don't wanna try anything risky (yes, I know it's too late, but we're trying to fix it).
Can we have some kind of pointer here?
I don't even know I'm giving out enough information or not, so if you need any more information, please let us know here.

I don't think I've bricked my phone, I hope you can help me. Done some reading here, but still a big time noob! Trying to flash back to stock for the Verizon upgrade, my phone is stuck on the screen with a gold triangle and a exclamation point in the center of a cell Phone and a computer. I found a thread with a similar problem. I can't seem to have a successful flash in odin. I keep getting a fail when i flash the test file. I would be content if I could just get the phone to boot and have my Miunia Rom working again. Someone please help.

That means you have no kernel our rom in the phone. Not sure what this "test file" you are trying to flash is, but I'm not surprised its failing. Flashing dl 17 should work. If not, flash the ec07 leak, with the proper pit file, repartition unchecked. Then flash dl17.
Dished out by my dumb digits
now it's worse, I hit the dark abyss
So, I flashed(with odin) the clean Eco7 stock with with the correct pit file. It seemed to be doing fine, it got all the way to recov.bin but then I froze there for about an hour. At this point i didn't think it was going to pass anyway so i unplugged the phone and stopped the program(oops?). Now my phone is even worse, it seems lifeless. The phone won't even go to down load mode. I found on another post where someone else was also getting nothing, no power just blackness, and I followed those directions. Still a black screen. It seems more grim than ever! One thing I have noticed that while attempting to flash, a few times my computer completely rebooted. Out of know where! This has happened about 5 or 6 times. I'm just about ready to turn on my old flip phone but I just don't want to give up yet! Any more suggestions?!
Oops, is right. You may have hard bricked yourself. I've tried helping people out of this one before, with no sucess. That is the reason I told you to make sure repartition was unchecked. You can try to power on, and issue an adb command, if you have it installed. But, I doubt it will work. The reason you don't have download, at this point, is because you don't have a secondary bootloader on your phone, anymore. It turns into a catch 22. Download mode is supposedly hard written on the chip. So, you could use a jig to force it into download mode. I'd say that that is your best bet, at this point.
did uncheck repartition
I did uncheck repartition but obviously with no avail. I Will try the"jig" but I don't know anything about it. Is this a file I can download or what?
No matter what happens, thanks soooo much for the efforts to help me!!! Especially wolf??
No. A jig is a piece of hardware. Do a youtube search for 'download mode jig' and you''' get some good hits. You'd have to construct it, or get ahold of some of the devs that have. I don't recall the name, but one dev made one for the Fascinate. I'd imagine it would work for our phone too.
If anyone can remember who it is (I want to say Adam Outler, but I might be wrong) pipe up.
Hey guys.
Tonight I rooted my phone with the hopes of everything going smooth, it didn't. It was a nightmare rooting the phone itself.
I was trying to install TWRP recovery through Goomanager but that didn't work so I did it through fast boot and terminal emulator with the commands.
After it was done I rebooted my phone and it just went to a black screen with the blue notification light. Then the phone turned off. I can't turn it on at all nor can I get it to go into download mode.
I recently just got this phone, one week ago to be exact, as an early Christmas present and I haven't really even been able to enjoy the phone because I've had the flu. I just now recovered from it and this happens.
I am in a insanely bad situation.
Is there anything at all I can do? Please help me...

In these situations its best to provide as much information as possible. What was your Baseband? MDL? MF3? if you have no idea what any of this means....then you shouldn't be trying to flash anything on your phone, atleast not until after doing a ton of research. Your best bet is to try and get it into download mode and ODIN back to a stock image. If you can't get into download mode then unfortunately there isn't much you can do. You can try going to a best buy and see if they can flash it for you. You should know that if you're on MF3 you CANNOT flash a custom recovery other than SafeStrap. Hope some if this helps.
This phone is super special with special needs.if you can get it into DL mode than SEARCH for the Odin files that are floating around here.this phone will teach you how to read again

If the phone is new like you said, its a good chance the model is MF3. The custom recovery you installed doesnt work for that model which more than likely cased or helped cause your issue. If you dont know the model and your phone won't turn on...the model number is listed on the box (assuming you still have it).
The TC mentioned he can't obtain DL mode so I'm not sure how the using odin will help him since it won't recognize his phone. I'd try best buy and go from there. If you try to have it warrentied while pleading the "I dont know what happened" card to your carrier...just be warned, if they replace it and find out it was rooted or messed with than they will charge your account the full retail cost. I've had many phones replace via manufacturers warranty and that is the first thing they tell me. It can even be an issue if the screen has a tiny scratch. Hope it works out.

He he can't turn it on best buy isn't going to help either. No one will be able to tell it's rooted either. Just take it back to where you got it and tell them it won't turn on. If it does turn on then you can Odin it.

Pull the battery and wait a minute. Then replace it and see if you can use the correct key combo to get into recovery. If you fix it or get it replaced I suggest you do a lot of reading and learning before doing anything else. Good luck.
Bricked Galaxy S4
I've been there my self. The best and fastest thing to do now is go on the Wed and look up mobiletechvideo .
The guys are great. The turn around is fast.
Thread cleaned and closed.

ok, so i have the verizon lg g2, i have flashed numerous phones before and never had anything like this happen. First off, it took me hours to just get the thing rooted after going thru about 15 different walkthrus before one worked.
Then i decided i wanted Malladus ROM so i tried flashing twrp recovery with loki, didnt work, went thru damn near every forum about it coming out with nothing....until...found one talking about flashify and everyone said it worked fine. So i do it, took about 1 second and said it worked, restarted and nothing had changed, except now i cannot enter download mode! When i do it just shows "firmware update" it never changes, left it on all night still at 0%.
I have unrooted it (even though it still says its rooted, but no longer have permissions) and i did a full reset, NOTHING works!!
So before you guys chime in, let me tell you what i have tried....EVERYTHING lol .....I know the only way to fix my phone to fully unroot it is to flash back to original rom, so i went to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960 and that wont work because 1. cant get into dl mode, and 2 it wont let me open the flash tool (did everything right, researched and came up with nothing)
then i went to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 cant get that to work either because cant get into dl mode, so now i have TWO 2.2gb rom files on my comp that i cant use,
And just to be clear, I KNOW HOW to go to dl mode lol, i have wrote it several forums and all people keep saying is the stuff ive already said.
Oh and i cant push with adb either...that is how i originally tried twrp and after 3 hours of trying to figure it out i finally got it to go thru (it was wrong i think but it worked) and that may be what has caused it to crash the dl screen.
Ive never used adb before and after reading 7 diff forums beginning to end (bout a 1000 pages) i realized they were all the same but do not actually explain enough for someone who has never one it. It said to push, well idk what that meant! lol I need step by step instructions in order to fix this, even the tiniest of things may be something i would miss.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!! Thanks guys!
Download mode should work... The first night I got my G2 it was about 4 in the morning, and I immediately installed TWRP on it (3.2 is what you want 3.3 doesn't work), and promptly erased everything on my phone... Partition, data, and everything.
But download mode was still intact, and that first thread you linked worked just fine for me. If you're having issues with that flash tool and being stuck at a login screen, you missed the part where it tells you to download a DLL file and place it the flash tool install directory. That file will bypass the system login and let you use the program.
I don't know how long you've been up, but I'd say take a break and come back to it in a bit. If you still can't download mode to work, have a friend come over and look up how to get in download mode, then have them try it. I've done that many times... Thought I was doing everything right and a second pair of fresh eyes found some tiny thing I overlooked in the process.
I hope you get your phone working man, sorry I can't be of more specific help.
Sent from CAMACHO, my Verizon G2 (VS980) running PAC ROM.
Hello everyone! I'm brand new to the forums so if I am breaking any rule or regulation, just give me a heads up. So, some basic information about my predicament.
- own a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Verizon.
- I use t-mobile network. Works great with no problems.
- phone was successfully rooted via towel root.
I was looking to get cynagenmod on the phone so I started looking up guides and such. Only thing I wasn't aware of was that carrier branded versions can't have their recovery flashed. That said, I used flashify and the clockwork apk. The app did its job, killed the stock recovery, but couldn't load the new one. Now the phone says error, no recovery when trying to access it during boot.
It should be said that the phone still boots and works normally but I really want to get the recovery working so I can at least try again the right way to get cynagenmod working.
My question is, is it possible to get my hands on the stock recovery for my phone and just flash it back to how it was? Basically, how do I fix this problem I put myself in. Of course, I didn't make backups. During the whole process, I figured "if I follow this tutorial word for word, why bother with backups?" look how wrong I was
Any help would be sincerely appreciated. I'm posting this from my replacement phone, not my note 3.
first i wanna say that this is my first time trying this and after a lot of research i thought i knew what i was getting into but now i feel completely lost. earlier today I rooted my phone using one click root then installed twrp using auto rec. auto rec seemed to work fine and i clicked open in recovery just to see if it worked. twrp opened no problem but when i went to boot the system back up i started getting security error messages under the LG logo. i tried getting it to boot again after formatting and now its just stuck on the LG logo and not doing anything at all. im almost positive i have a d800 version and pretty sure that i used the right autorec file. i was running 5.0.2 instead of kit kat so not sure if that had something to do with it. please help me out anyway you can, i really need to get my phone working again for work and not sure what to do. i tried searching for an answer but had trouble figuring out what to do.
Yes definetely it has something to do with it. Because autorec uses kitkat kernel. You just have to flash lollipop kernel and you're good to go.

Flash stock firmware with KDZ (Lg Flash Tool) there are a lot of tutorials here on xda.
Good luck.
I'm in the middle of the TOT method right now to get it back to stock firmware, seems to be working. so now if i want to start over and root/get twrp on my phone any suggestions on the best method? i've read a lot of different ways to do it and not quite sure what would be best. sorry if this seems like an easy find, i just dont want to run into this mess again ha.
