i tryed the drivers still nothing my computer is litterly not reading the phone at all
Same issue here. My pocket got warm earlier and i pulled out my phone and it was in CWM. Rebooting only brought it back to CWM. Phone is not recognized by PC (with correct drivers) and I can't get into download mode at all. Was able to flash TWRP through CWM because i had a zip of it on the phone. But even with TWRP, every reboot to... option just takes me back to recovery.
Install pdanet, while phone is connected in recovery mode to pc open pdanet and install lg drivers through it and then open adb in ur pc and type adb devices and if it sees then open sideload in twrp or cwm and push Rom to phone.

Hi,
I recently updated to the official 4.4.2 kitkat update.I then proceeded to root the phone, and then stupidly, installed CWM. I rebooted, and was greeted with an endless LG Splash screen. Now, I tried a HEAP of ways to restore to stock, all of them returning the same problem, my computer won't pick up my phone. In download mode, nothing happens, nothing in device manager, and same when I'm stuck on the LG splash screen. When I go into CWM, it then recogizes my phone, but the methods of restoring to stock won't work with CWM running in the background. CWM also won't let me mount the usb...
The methods return the same error: Phone not detected, please plug the USB cable and retry.
Ubuntu won't recognize the phone in all three modes, and another computer does the same thing. (Both Windows 8)
Methods of stock restoration tried:
-KDZ
-LGMobile support tool
-Ubuntu (This: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142)
Can anyone help?

Install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
then go to recovery and try adb devices on command prompt on your PC to check if your device is listed
if it shows your devices then just search any thread that tell how to push flashable rom to your device.

Was your phone able to connect to the PC afterwards? I have a D800 that I am unable to get any PC to recognize. I need to restore it to stock but no matter what I do it does not show up in device manager (and I have a working rom on it).

Yes, it does work now. I was able to restore to stock by adb pushing phillz recovery, and then flashing that, then adb pushing the stock ROM. Everything works as it should, now.

Does it recognize your phone when it's in the custom recovery? That was the only way I could do it on my phone.
Good luck!
I tried ADB devices nothing came out.
I have the same problem as listed in this thread. Tried everything to SHort circuit the chip. Basically everything.
I think the last thing i haven't try is dump it into the bin.

Just install lg drivers - if it doesn't work then download adb drivers..

if you manage to install the driver the rest should go easy.
It's weird, on some systems it wont install the driver properly(adb) but google nexus driver installs fine.
i was hoping so

Ultra brick G2 vs980! T_T
Good night lords of XDA!
I come to you after exhausting all that I could find and try, hope you can enlighten me, you would save a new G2 that is about to become a gleaming brick:
Summary: I have in hand a Verizon LG G2 vs980, with the intention of using it in Spain. After a bad flash a ROM for a different model, you could not access recovery mode or download mode, only fastboot.
Thanks to this great tutorial, I could flash by ADB and fastboot files an official ROM for this G2, but after a correct process, the G2 restarted and only shows "Security error" before shutting ...
I still do not have access to recovery or download, and now not to fastboot. Only allows me to access the screen "Factory reset", but in doing nothing changes.
How could re-flash a recovery or something like that allows me relive my G2?
Thank you very much in advance. You are my salvation. XD

Sorry, wrong thread. XDD
Hello Everyone,
I've been looking around and can't seem to find any guide I can get to work.
A couple months ago, I rooted my LG G2 and installed Cyanogen mod successfully. After a couple days, for some reason I restored to a backup I made back before I installed Cyan, so it was just on the Stock OS. A couple days later my phone tried to update itself and it bricked it. I was an idiot and wiped everything for some reason so theres nothing on there but the LG logo and then it goes to TWRP.
So now I'm not quite sure what to do. I can adb push and sideload just fine, but I've tried pushing a zip with the stock OS and installing it but everytime it just says it failed. Ive also pushed cyan on again and it says successfully installed and then just goes back to TWRP again. Can anyone help me with what to do from here? Do I need a certain tool to re install the OS? Will pushing it and then installing it with TWRP not work?
thanks!
Reflash lg g2 stock rom .

How would I go about flashing the stock rom?
Ive been trying to use this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
But every time I try to use the "Automatic offline procedure" I get an error saying permission denied. I made sure the drivers and everything were installed
Any ideas?
Right click - Run as administrator.
Or do it manually
https, window enabler..etc.
Alright, so I was able to do it manually, but in the instructions it says to enable usb debugging. Just to clarify my phone is basically stuck in TWRP, so will this even work?
My comp doesnt even recognize my phone as an LG G2 it says something like ADB galaxy nexus.

That's ok.
Open cmd line where your adb is. Put some rom inside.
Let's say the rom is : mycoolrom.zip
adb push mycoolrom.zip /sdcard/mycoolrom.zip
then flash it.

I did this, but like I said in the original post when I try to flash it, it just says failed every time. Ive tried files from all over and they all fail. Could you point me in the right direction of one that might work?
Thanks
You didn't mention download mode.
Try powering off the device, hold volume up and connect to pc ?
Is the download mode at least working ?

Nope, no matter what I do it just goes to TWRP
And just to be clear it pushes over fine, and the zip is on the phone, its just when I try to flash it on TWRP it says failed. the last error code just said unable to open Zip
Hello,
I just came back from my honeymoon and all of my pictures are on my N4. Of course before I pull the pictures, I drop the phone is the screen is cracked and the touch does not work anymore.
I'm really desperate to get these pictures. I've read all over online but my problems are this with all of the help out there:
My phone is the latest 4.4.2 on T Mobile.
It has stock EVERYTHING (bought straight form google), and the USB debugger is not enabled. (next phone I get this is the first thing I'm enabling.
I've been trying to follow instructions online but a lot of items have changed between last year and Kit Kat now and some steps such as unlocking the bootloader seems to wipe out everything on my phone.
I've been trying to use ADB and Freeboot but really havent gotten anymore.
I've also read that I can maybe use a usb mouse to substitute and unlock my phone? USB OTG? How do I know if my nexus has that enabled?
I'm even considering getting a new screen so I can try to replace the current one and get my photos. I dont care what happens to the phone but the pictures are priceless to me.
Is there any thread or guide that incorporates 4.4.2? the more detail the better of course.
Much thanks in advance.

Thank you for the quick reply.
I do manage to get into stock recovery, I get past the green guy lying on his back, though the method isnt always reliable. I get to the screen where it gives you the options to reboot, apply update from ADB etc.
I select to apply ADB file and it says "now send the package you want to apply..."
However, when I go into the command prompt on my PC, and type ADB devices, and nothing shows.
Do I need to install the drivers that makes the phone a ADB device and not the normal MTP device?
Thank you.

Yes u need proper adb setup on ur pc ..
U can find and install nexus 4 drivers with adb setup from this forum threads..
After u have done that check if you can find ur device using adb from recovery..
If u can find the device by recovery .. Then rest is easy ..
Just follow this link afterwards

Get the screen replaced, or do it yourself. ADB in the stock recovery is very limited to "adb sideload" commands only, you can't pull files this way.

You do not need USB debugging to transfer files. On windows, open file explorer and with your nexus 4 connected it should appear on the left side as Nexus 4. Or if you have osx use http://www.android.com/filetransfer/.
