Hello everybody,
I'm the owner of a G2 for about two months, everything was fine till yesterday, the battery was low so I charge it as usual, the phone was turned on, but one hour later when I checked it, when I checked it, it was off with just a red blinking light (notification).
I searched about the problem so I tried to hold the power button for a long time, tried to hard reset it by holding the button power and volume down for a whole minute but nothing happen for both. :crying:
I hope someone could help to solve this annoying problem, I'm desperate...
NB: - the red blinking does appear only when I charge the phone or connect it to pc.
- I also charge it the whole night but no result.
(sorry for my bad english)
Hi all,
I have a LG G2 from AT&T. Had it for about 1.5 years now. No issues until now.
I was just watching some YouTube videos and the phone suddenly shut off. I tried the power button and it won't turn on.
I plugged the G2 in to a power outlet, but it was just stuck on the "LG" screen. I unplugged the cable, and now, even when I plug in the cable, the phone won't turn on.
Can someone please help me? Thanks in advance to anyone who can.
I believe it's due to the motherboard, but I'm not sure.
Really would like someone's help!
Bumping. Really need help with this.
Can you put it in download mode?
Plug in your usb cable from pc holding vol down button, if nothing happens, try at the service centre because it can be hardware related.
The phone doesn't do anything when connected to the laptop with the button held down. :/
Hello!
I decided to reboot my LG G2 and I clicked reboot and phone didn't wake up. I thought that maybe battery is low or sth, so it plugged it to charger and no light from led. No response. I tried all combinations - vol up/down/ power and it even don't give any vibrations, sound or light. I plugged it to computer and nothing appears. Is it possible to make it working? There was no problems before? Can I just get my data from it? Maybe it's an issue from battery ? I have no idea I really loved this phone...
What to do now?
I had rooted my dad's lg g2( D802) and installed twrp using an app named autorec as it was recommended by many people in the internet and had very high ratings and downloads in the play store. Everything was fine for a few weeks till I noticed that the app had an update. So I flashed twrp again from the app hoping it was a newer version and it said it completed the operation successfully. Then I just used the phone for sometime and after that I switched off the phone to enter the recovery. After it switched off, I pressed the button combination for entering the recovery but nothing came up. Then I attempted to just boot the phone and kept pressing the power button but nothing came up. I even kept pressing the button for upto a minute to hard reboot it in case it was just a case of hanging but nothing came up.After that, I plugged it in for charging and attempted to boot again. After I kept pressing the power button for about 30 seconds while charging, the led blinked red 8 times, paused and repeated itself as long as I kept holding the power button.
The problem is that it even the screen doesn't turn on.
I searched for this issue and saw that many others were facing this issue. I tried the following solutions given by them which did not work:
1) Holding the power button for a long time
2) Keeping it for charging until it's full but nothing comes up and the phone got heated up very much untill I stopped it a few hours later.
3) Removing the back cover and detaching the battery power cable from the phone after after waiting for sometime, reattaching it.
My dad showed it to the lg repair centre but they told him they need to replace the whole board which is very expensive, especially considering that it is a 2+ year old phone. My dad is very angry at me and probably won't let me touch his phones ever again if I don't fix this. Please help me.
Thanks in Advance
Edit: the charge was at 45% when I switched it off. Don't think it is because of low battery
With the phone pluggged into your computer, does the computer recognize the phone? And if yes, what does Device Manager report it as being?

more info... what variant? phone does not boot.. can you press vol up then plug phone .. does download mode works... stay calmed this can be fixed..:fingers-crossed:
I haven't tried plugging it to the computer. The way to enter download mode is holding the volume up button right? Thank you for the suggestion. I'm away for a few days but I'll tell my dad to do so. I'll post what happens then. Variant is D802
OK I told him to do that. When he pressed the volume up button and then plugged it to his computer, 13 new partitions showed up in windows, and it is telling him that he needs to format the positions to use it. But nothing is coming up on the phone
Do NOT let Windows format the partitions(!)
Use the SRKTool instead to unbrick from qhsusb_bulk mode:

Afterwards use LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the KDZ for your variant:

It's better to let the battery charge to full first. Shut down the phone by holding PWR button for 10 seconds, then plug charger. It should work even in bulk mode.
Did you try these simple things...
shutdown phone keeping powerbutton down.
Start pressing power button & vol down....when you see LG logo for couple seconds. Release fingers and press vol UP and vol DOWN, same time. No power button.

But the problem is, even the screen doesn't turn on while on download mode. I'll surely try out the unbrick tool but will it work since normally, the download mode screen comes up. That thing is 760mb. I think it'll take some time for it to finish. (Ultra slow internet connection )

The lg logo doesn't come up when I do that. If fact, even the screen does not turn on
Thank you guys! Srk tools worked! Again thank you very much
I have a Verizon LG G3 someone gave me. The back light goes off after a second. I can factory reset it and it stays on for a significant amount of time and then it goes off again. I can somewhat get around using a flashlight on the screen. It might be a hardware issue but I am trying to reflash it. I am following the guides, with the phone off, I hold volume UP and then connect the USB. It just shows the battery charging 100% screen. I installed the LG drivers. I'm not sure what's wrong.
