Bricked after OTA..

My sprint LG G2 was boot looping into TWRT after I accepted an OTA.
I've read several posts, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477595 and this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960,
the problem I get is I can not get into download mode, well, I did enter it, but it stuck at 0%, and my computer don't recognize it. Can not find the phone in "devices", installed the driver and still no avail. BTW, when I boot into TWRT, my computer can recognize the android device and ADB works then.
Since I cannot get past the download mode, I can not use the LG flash tool.. it says "LG USB/Parallel lock key is not detected".
Any suggestion is deeply appreciated.

I tried, use ADB while the phone is in TWRT, went through and restarted, still boot into TWRT.
The command line in TWRT will pop up an error message saying "not enough space", although I do have enough space. So it didn't work either.

Sounds like you just need to keep messing with it until you can get it to recognize it in download mode and go back to stock. What Windows version do you have? i had some issues with 8 but 7 worked fine.

Well, that Fix clear FOTA with zeros and it should end with "not enough space", this is normal.
I guess when your phone restarted into download mode and got stuck on 0%, it already overwrite maybe part of system partition, this is why only download or recovery works.
Did you made any nandroid backup before? If yes, restore at least boot & system from it. It should help, so you can boot normally. If you do not have any backup, well, maybe some other fellow Spring user can give u his boot & system backup files so you can restore them.

Yes, I have a full nandroid backup before. I did a full restore from it after the boot-looping, but it didn't work, I still boot into TWRP and unable to boot into system.

so you followed that fix to clear FOTA, restored from backup, but when do "REBOOT SYTEM" from TWRP it ends again in recovery?

No, it doesn't work, because my phone stuck at 0% in download mode and it doesn't show up in my device manager on PC.

I used the fix from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960
except that I used the sprint .tot file. (http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G2/Stock/Sprint+LS980/)
Did you try to reinstall the drivers or use a different cable?

I encountered the same issue last night. I reinstalled the Verizon united drivers and rebooted my machine. The next time that I connected the device in download mode, device manager picked up the device. I had to re-run the LG tool, but it eventually progressed past 0% and my issue was fixed. You can reinstall the verizon drivers using the following link.
http://wacomalt.com/dropbox/LGG2/StockRevert/LG VZW_United_WHQL_v2.11.1.exe

I'm having the same issues with D802b after doing the 60mb OTA update. My phone didn't get a chance to actually do the download as on first restart it just went straight into TWRP and I haven't been able to get back since.
It's just looping back into TWRP each time. I've now completely wiped all parts of the phone including the internal SD card, I've even re-installed a new kernel and rom (The custom one I was using before this happened, from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2505682) from an attached USB (sd card reader) with successful installs through TWRP (including wiping cache etc), still reboots into TWRP on restart. I've also done a hard reset that was supposedly successful, still boots into TWRP.
Same as the OP, it won't 'install itself' properly in windows while in TWRP mode or in 'Software Download' mode (turn on with up and down buttons pressed down and plug data cable in). I've tried in vain to hunt down a specific D802 inf as pointing it at the universal driver didn't detect either.
I have installed the Android SDK, LG Suite, LG Universal drivers. I've then tried the B2CAppSetup (which works, but won't detect the device). I've then tried the FlashTool 1.0.54 and it gets all the way through but can't communicate with the device.
The only thing I haven't managed to do yet is to decompress the official kdz into a zip so I can flash it through TWRP. Haven't had much luck with LGExtract as of yet.
Rather baffled actually, as I'm sure the OP is.
Any thoughts?

I tried that method many times and it does not work on the Sprint version. If you read through the thread you'll noticed that others with Sprint devices can not get that method to work.
The only method that worked for me was to use the LG Flash tool and flash the Sprint tot file and follow the instructions for the Verizion method for going back to stock.

Not really sure if this would've solve your problem but here's my possible theory to why you couldn't get it to work:
I was in the same situation. Took the OTA update and was boot looping into TWRP. Just like you, nothing in TWRP would fix it. I think you probably panicked and rush through the instructions and forgot some important steps. Make sure you did not install the Verizon driver by accident because that will cause problems with your Sprint phone not being properly detected by your computer. I did panicked and started to try to many things and somehow got a copy of the Verizon driver and installed it. ADB was able to see my phone but when I tried to sideload something through TWRP it would generate an error. I found out that I had both drivers(LG USB driver and the Verizon USB driver) installed and after removing the Verizon USB driver my computer was able to detect my phone properly. It's really important that after making any changes or installations of drivers you will need to reboot your PC to get the new changes to take effect.
You got the "LG USB/Parallel lock key is not detected" error is because you forgot to copy and overwrite the "MegaLock.dll" that's located at "C:\LG\LGFlashTool" directory.
To get into download mode you just need to press the +volume button only(do not hold or press the power button) and plug in the USB cable that's attached to your computer and Download Mode should come on. It will stay on 0% until the LG Flash tool flashes the Sprint stock rom onto the phone.
Once I got the phone to come up in Download Mode I had to go into Device Manager and find the device and then change the COM port to COM 41 then everything went smoothly as the instruction indicated. If you were not able to change the COM to COM 41 then it will never work.
If you're not sure that you have all the files then this is where I got mine from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486738&page=7
or
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47849315&postcount=9
After I got the file above I followed the directions for the Verizon method below:

check this thread out. I had the same thing.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
this reverts you completely back to stock. You will lose all your data but you did back up regularly, right?
(edit) you only have to hold the volume UP key while plugging in the USB on a D801 to get into download mode.

Make sure you've disconnected usb when attempting to enter recovery. Hope the silence means you've sorted it out!

i felt like going back to stock from (was on cm11 nightlie) so i went on flashify and for some reason i tried restoring twrp and when it rebooted it messed it up bad -.-

I am able to get into TWRP to flash a ROM. I have tried the Stock Sprint Root ZV8 and it just reboots into TWRP. I was unable to get it to work with the LG Flash Tools.

If you're trying to unpack the ROM try redownloading the rom.
You're saying that you have CM installed? I had this exact problem and I had PA installed.. it was a mess. I had to sideload the original ROM because to flash with that program your build.prop has to be the original information when you received the phone or else the program will throw a "different phone model"
Do you have the LG usb drivers? Install all proper USB drivers and try to sideload an original ROM.
BTW do you have any backups? Restoring also gets you out of this mess

never mind i opened the wrong folder thanks for everything guys it worked perfectly ^.^

In case you don't know, you can supposedly get rid of it by displaying an all-white screen (with display brightness turned down to preserve bulb life).

Did you ask in the carbon thread?
Chances are it was a wipe issue.
Did you wipe in stock or aosp recovery?
You can always get back to stock by flashing the stock firmware.
I did this via booting twrp then flashing to both slots.
So unlock storage in twrp, then go flash the ROM, reboot recovery and it'll change slot.
Then flash it again.
Then reboot
Should boot
If not boot to recovery again (not twrp) and wipe system and data.
Should work then..
I didn't have that issue when carbon myself
If push comes to shove there's a tool to get back to stock @meffles has suggested it a few times but I've not used it myself, although he has and he swears by it.
Probably a good way to go and won't be hard.

Don't think so but you can go to any version using this tool (depending on whichever version you choose to download).
But yes, you can go back to android 10 from 11 no problem.

Never used this one pal.
Meffles is your man or check in the thread..
Don't you connect in EDL mode?
Think it's like a lower level recovery mode that you get to without having the cable connected. The screen will be blank..
Then connect and if should show..
Least that's my loose understanding of it.
What does the thread say??
Ps: looks like the application has stopped responding..
Make sure you have ran it as an administrator and that all pre requisites are installed that the application requires..

Turn your phone off, and make sure you don't have any cables connected. Hold volume up + volume down for 20 seconds, then plug in the usbc cable whilst still holding the volume buttons. You should see it spring into life. If not, then you need to check your drivers, which is covered in the link I provided you with.

I've taken it to a shop for repair
