Hey guys I was was flashing up to VIPERS rom after I put the phone back to default and updated to 2.2. Well any way step by step I first did the ONE CLICK ROOT. Then I download the DK28.pit(put pit in the pit section) and I download the modem.bin (and put that in the phone section) and I forgot to uncheck re-partition. I then put the phone in download mode and it finished with no errors. Of course it bricked my phone and the only thing it would do was go into download mode!
I had never bricked my phone before and it was cause of rookie mistakes.. I was reading numerous threads about how to fix a bricked phone and it didn't seem to hard to fix. I downloaded the original firmware SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL(in PDA section) and the pit file that came with it. I attempted to flash it with odin and it keep failing so I looked for a alternative route.
Finally I found a post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732199 and followed the guide to a T and everything finished up just fine.(I just figured it would work because it had all the files in ODIN) And I was positive that everything was going to work just fine! I was planing to just get it up and running and then get the phone back to its original firmware.. But now the phone will not even go into download mode..
P.S. I have tried pulling the sd card out and the battery, and while holding 1 and the power button while trying to put it in download mode(like i had to do previously) and there is no response. Any suggestions?

I hope you didnt flash JG5 to your epic. I believe this will cause a real hard brick.
If you flashed JG5, congratulations, you just killed your Epic.
Also, please read the stickies before you post. This is Android DEVELOPMENT. Questions are to be asked in General.
This is why you READ before you begin dealing with stuff like this.. The modem goes in the PDA section not phone; and if your phone can't boot; or go into download mode.. There is no hope.
Seems like you've truley bricked your phone my friend..
I did read it and it said that I needed to put the modem in the phone section. But good news is I have a new epic waiting at the repair center 4 me to pick up today.. I was practicing on the messed up one so I would do it on this one right.. I have rooted and flashed every phone I have ever had and never had a problem.. The original post I found for odin said to put the modem in the phone section..
It is pretty darn hard to brick these, even if you flash incorrectly. Try taking the battery out for 20 minutes and then putting it back in. Should get you to download mode.
I always put modem in phone, pit in pit, and the tar.md5 in pda. Always works.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
If you're using the full .tar.md5, there's no need to place the modem.bin in the modem section; there's already a modem inside the .tar.md5.
I am pretty sure its done.. No biggie though I am going to get my new one today.. I am glad I work at SPRINT!!! It wasnt bricked until I did the JG5.. I was trying to figure out if it changed the buttons that put it in download mode but I couldn't find a combo.. oh first bricked phone in years of flashing cause I was trying to rush things

If you're using Odin to flash anything except a modem, it will completely wipe the phone (not the SD card, so don't worry about that) - which means performing the One Click Root before hand is unnecessary because it will be overwritten.
Also, in the future, don't start a new thread like this in the Development section - there is a Q&A thread in the Dev section that you could use, or you could post in the General section... I'm not trying to start a flame war (which seems to be what usually happens lately, lol), just trying to bring you up to speed on where to post - we have recently started a renewed effort to clean out the clutter and put an end to redundant posts, so that noobs and experienced users alike will be able to more quickly and easily find the information they need, making it easier to NOT brick your phone
Please post questions in General Section.
I think it would be nice if someone could post a screenshot guide for noobs to stop asking these questions (including me) and do the flashing back to di18 and coming back to dk28 easily. I m in the same boat.. havent flashed it yet..will be doing later today but i m **** scared that i might brick it.. no matter how many times i read and post questions.. I know it cud be difficult for pros to put together a guide but if someone can that would really cut down all the questions and numerous threads in this forum.. I can do that but once I get all the info .. and do my stuff properly only

EDIT: Please move to Q/A lg g2 sub
There are other threads how to fix this but people are having issues finding the right files or flash blindly whatever they see.
Inside this package is a roughly described tutorial on how to deal with it.
Simply get your files and place them inside this directory, once you extract it.

whats that mehod?? any thread??
First, excuse me for my english, it's not my first language.
I need to know a lot of information about this phone, when I look at "About phone" it says that is a D802 model(On the back of the phone there is a mention that's a D802 model), but when I plug it to PC it's detected as LS980 (I removed the back of the phone and look at the motherboard, it's a G2 LS980),so, I downloaded the D802 Firmware, I flash it and bingo there is nothing normal on the phone, no wifi, no cellular network, and the great problem is the touch screen, when I click in an area it moves in another, then I tried a lot of Firmwares and nothing wont's to back normal, I followed a tutorial in XDA forums that says that I must edit a .tot file with FlexHex in order to repair the phone, but it stays not normal.
Please help me I want to get back my phone into life.
Thank you
U must to install ls980 tot or kdz if that not work install d801 kdz or tot that work for my friend
I tried this
When I flashed the phone with the .tot (LS980ZV8_13.51097.tot) file everything goes wrong on the phone (Bad display, I can't see what the phone is showing, and when I flash it with the KDZ file the display has many errors, when I put my fingers on, it moves in another area, there is no IMEI, no Wifi, and when I try to plug my phone on PC in order to flash it with Fastboot this one don't recognize my phone because here is no IMEI, I think I must restore the IMEI before trying to do anything, what do you think ?
It looks like you got one of the hacked together "refurbished" ones. All you can really do is try flashing different tot files to hopefully get it working again.
check ur exact model through your phone's imei number from imei (dot) info and then flash the correct TOT file. Had a friend buy a G2 which originally 801 but flashed into 802.
Here's the problem

When I check the phone model with IMEI it says that a D802, and when I open the back of the phone it says that's a LS890, the IMEI of the phone is, can you check it for me ?
I think that the only way to restore my phone is to edit the .tot file with FlexHex in order to modify some lines of the Firmware, but I don't know which lines to edit! If there's a link to modified Firmware with FlexHex, please give it to me.

Flash the LS980 tot first, following this guide step by step:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2687768
First flash the JB firmware via this TOT method of D802. IF not then follow as below
(Just make sure u have LS980 tot file, downloaded from http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/LS980/Stock_Firmware)
(probably the set you got had build prop edited to change the device info).
If it results in an error, use the dll in next posts in the same thread.
Edit: http://goo.im/devs/androiduser00110001/ROM/G2/KK/D80220a/LGUP_8974.dll
Keep in mind that I do not take any responsibility of the damage resulting in this cross-flashing, I'm just helping u to go back to the correct firmware.
P.S Remove the imei from ur post.
Will try this

Overview::Well, something bad happened to my phone (H830), then LGUP said unknown device. I tried many tools, different KDZ but all went failed
What Actually happened in my case:
I had mm stock 10d ROM then I upgraded to 20a using LGUP KDZ method by using uppercut trick. I wanted to enjoy Fulmics 1.5 (for my H830), but was newbie so had no idea about rooting it and installing (Because all available guides were actually complexed or I was impatient to read other things except main procedure). So I did something strange and Fulmics was installed over 20a ROM, because I was unable to wipe internal storage due to that decryption thing.
So I thought, I should go back to stock by using LGUP and retry the procedure with more focus. This time LGUP didn’t know my phone, not with that uppercut too. I thought that’s because I unlocked bootloader and must first try to lock it, and try again with LGUP. I retried with locked bootloader and failed again.
(Remember, LGUP or any other tool have nothing to do with back to stock thing. You can go back to stock whether you are bootloader locked or unlocked, it has no power of stopping you.)
Possible Cases:So I will not waste the time. Possible cases:
1: LG G5 stuck on download mode and it is now not being recognized by LGUP and you can’t do anything, because no other tool is available.
2: You installed a custom ROM and now LGUP is not recognizing it. You want to go back to stock and can’t do it.
3: Anything bad happened during flashing process, PC restarted, phone went off or whatever. And now you can’t bring it back to life.
¬ Or
Other cases you faced.
Read 4th post before proceeding,
Before asking a question, first, see FAQ in 3rd post. In that way you can save a lot of time.
For Video Guide refer to 4th Post
Things You need:
1: LG UP
2: Uppercut
3: Drivers
4: Stock ROM for your device.
All Herehttps://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/uppercut-lgup-loader-g5-variants-t3511295
5 : LG Flash tool (the one used to bring LG G2, G3 back to stock).
I used 20a KDZ because I had it already and it was nougat with vulnerability to root and flash TWRP.
6: LG Firmware extract tool
In 2nd post
Most tools can be found in attachments of 2nd post.
Process:
First:
Uninstall all other tool, previous driver (including other phone’s too). Restart PC
Just to avoid problems. I tried this process many times on Windows 10 64-bit and it always worked for me. So it has no problems with new Windows OS.
Now follow procedure in exact order.
1: Install LG drivers.
Put Phone in download
(Hold Vol+ and connect to PC while it was powered off).
Wait until it finishes installing drivers. Change COM Port to 41.

}
( Refer here for changing this, If you can’t understand that.)
Now DC it from PC and keep it staying in Download mode.
2: Install LG Flash tool and copy megalock.dll to installation directory or it won’t work.
3: Install LGH-H830_DLL, LGH850_DLL and LGUP_Store_Frame_Ver_1_14_3.
4: Extract LG Firmware Extract and copy Stock KDZ to that folder.
5: Run WindowsLGFirmwareExtract.exe
A: Click on “KDZ file” open and select stock KDZ.
B: Mark File Name. It will select all files. Click on extract KDZ button. Wait till finished. Now quit the program.
6: Run LG Flash tool. Select Manual mode. Click “…” for dll and select LGUPc.dll from that KDZ extracted folder.
A: Click on add button of S/W, Select “All Files” from pop up window. Now ““.KDZ”” file will be shown, select that ““.KDZ”” file, press open button, click on “OK”
B: Begin download by pressing that big “Yellow Right Arrow”. Wait until it finishes loading.
C: Connect phone when LG Flash tool says “Waiting for connection”. Make sure phone is in download mode and COM port is 41.
D: After a while it should fail the process, that’s fine. Just DC Phone, do not turn it off.
7: Exit LG Flash tool and Run it again. Select Manual Mode. This time select LGUP_H830.dll (Select as per your model e.g H850.dll for International variant) from LGUP
(Download it from 2nd post, then extract and select as dll for this step only.)
Folder. On S/W section first click on “Remove All” to erase old selected KDZ from tool and select “.DZ” (not “.KDZ”) as S/W from extracted KDZ ROM.
A: Press ok, Select on big “Yellow right arrow”. This will be loaded quickly. Connect the phone again. This time the process will get started. Wait till it gets completed.
Note: This flashing process will go up to 150% so don’t get nervous or don’t DC phone.
B: Phone will be restarted automatically. A big “2” will be shown. Wait till it gets converted into “3” and tool will say pass.
if so pull battery and start phone normally.
Or
If it is not converted into 3: Happened to me for first time.
(First Quit LG Flash tool)
Pull battery, reboot again into download mode. Run Uppercut, say “Yes” to consent, LGUP will be started automatically, Now LGUP will recognize the phone. Click on upgrade, Press “…” and browse stock KDZ ROM and select “.KDZ” stock ROM (not “.DZ”)
Select Upgrade because Refurbish won't work with uppercut.
Press Start. Download will get started. Wait until it finishes. Now Your Phone is back to life.
Ask If anything wrong happened, I will try my best to help. I used this method on my device, LG G5 T-Mobile variant AKA H830. It should work for others.
Hit Thanks, if I helped you.
If I forgot to give credit to anyone who is related with these tools, please let me know and I will be happy to name them.
Attachments. See below.
LGUP_H830.dll is for H830 variant only. You need .dll file specified for your variant.
LGUP_H850.dll --> Here
Either Download files from Attachments or Use MEGA mirror
DLL for other Variants
To get dll for other models please refer here
(This doesn't have dll for all G5 variants but should ease to some users) (Huge thanks to @codefire for awesome website)
FAQ
I got confused on which Flash tool to use and with this megalock stuff?
Ans: Thanks, you asked, Just download LG Flash Tool attached in 2nd post, unzip, install tool, there will be a megalock.dll too, copy that to installation folder (by default that's "C:\LG\LGFlashTool") and overwrite, (written in install.instructions too inside zip).
This method isn't working for me, what shall I do?
Ans: The possible reasons, for that not working, might be,
A: You didn't installed drivers properly, try uninstalling old drivers and restarting after that.
B: LG COM PORT isn't set to COM41, here is guide for that.
C: And Most important, You are not following steps in the order in which they are written, so read carefully.
I followed the method and now my phone is totally live but now I want to root my device and have TWRP, so I can have full freedom with this phone. Can you give me any thread for that?
Ans: Nice question. There's a lots of nice threads out there here's a thread currently covering H830 only but you are welcomed to try this on H850 and let me know if this works so that I can update the thread.
Can I lock my bootloader again so I can take OTA updates?
Ans: First of all, always remember, bootloader has nothing to do with OTA. It means that if your phone is flashed with stock rom without any root or TWRP and bootloader is unlocked, you can take OTA uodates without any brick. So there is no connection between OTA and bootloader.
But if you still want to lock bootloader, here's the process. Make sure drivers are installed and minimal adb & fastboot is installed too.
Take battery out, put it back, hold vol- and connect phone to pc with data cable, it will boot into fastboot. Enter command in adb & fastboot cmd windows,
Code:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot
Your phone will now try to boot into system, if stock rom is installed phone will boot without any issue else you will have to flash stock kdz again.
Where I can download stock KDZ or dll for my LG Phone (other than G5)
Ans: Most LG Phone KDZs can be found at this website.
First of All:After Flashing let me know about your experience by answering the poll, this will help me in updating this post. Also tell me about you experience in comments.

I followed all the steps. LGflashtool got stuck on 10 per cent and failed after 63sec. Same thing on LGbridge it got stuck on 10 per cent. And LGUP wouldnt recognise it. It's on com41. The phone is stuck in download mode. No recovery. What can I do please?

Have you followed it as described. You have to do the process 2 times with lg flash tool and after that with lgup (only if you stuck with big 2).
Please read care-fully..
Tell me if it worked or not.

Finally, it has come back to life. I retried it using LGflashtool but this time I used stock Nougat rom for Vofadone UK cos my phone was simlocked to Vodafone UK. I was using MM rom for 3 Networt cos I wanted to install xposed framework which aint compatible with Nougat.
Thanks to everyone who helped to make my phone come back to life esp the created of this thread.

I tried your process 4 times to no avail. my computer can't recognize the device. I'm done trying. Thanks for trying to help. But I'm just gonna sell it on ebay for like $200 as a damaged device. I've tried everything and I don't need the stress of rooting anymore. this phone did it in for me and rooting devices. Anyone want a H830 for the low price of $200? i kid! BUt ya selling this thing. thanks guys.

Good luck with that. :?
OP, I would like to make a suggestion. Could you please include screenshots to illustrate the steps. That will help people to better understand the steps and to make sure no step is missed as this is happening to lots of people lately. With that it will save you from replying to posts of missed steps and make the thread clean. Thank you once again.

Here is the thread I wrote to root h830 on v20a. You can try
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g5/how-to/guide-root-twrp-lg-g5-using-t3580264
I'm still working on it so write your experience and suggestion for the thread after trying...
And off course you can bring your phone back to life for everytime, as long as you can access that download mode.
