I bought a broken AT&T G2 that the buyer did a bad flash or something with. Doing some playing around on the phone I see that the phone is d800/ AT&T G2, with what to appears to be a d802 firmware in it. Phone turns on and boots up to main screen but touch screen doesn't respond well and it reboots after maybe 1 min or two.
I have tried lg flash tool but get failed because it reads the phone as d802 and the dll/tot file are for the d800 and doesn't give me an option to proceed. Also tried LGMLauncher but doesn't download the software, gets stuck at 11%.
Any other help will be appreciated, if not I'll resell this phone.

Unfortunately not. It's in a boot loop and when I hold power and volume down it just goes to

Going give this a try again. But the issue is if my pc has enough time to sync with the phone before the phone reboots.
I've tried something along those lines but to no avail. My phone doesn't show up on my computer in its current status. How can I get map to recognize my phone I have the drives installed and lg upgrade tool can see it so I know it can kinda see it. When I ran Adb devices nothing comes up on the ASB command prompt

don't think that's going to work for my situation but I'll give it a try in a bit. So I would get a d800 rom and load d802 .dll? I think once the program sees the .dll file and the firmware, it will fail.

i think we need some one to hack the dll or the LGFlashTools to skip TOT checking
Ya if we could get someone to do that then I could get everything to go through. Unfortunately I don't know any one with much programming or coding skills. But thanks for the help so far man. It's nice to know not everyone on the Internet is an asshole

i think this partition also the responsible for phone type ex D802 or VZ980 where LGFlashTools use it to detect phone type
laf partition will bring download mode to you
Hahaha tried this one to and the one it links me too. My phone isn't reconized my my computer so doing things throught the PCs CMD is out of the question for me and so is pushing the boot .img via ADB since my phone wasn't In debugging mode when I bricked it. But again thanks man. I think I've exhausted most of the conventional fix it threads on this since I've been looking through everything since Sunday
Hi,
I have a big problem with LG G2 from Sprint (LS 980). I've bought on eBay for using in Europe. When I bought it, one of very few optionw to use it for GSM carriers was flashing Justin's ROM - it is stock T-Mobile ROM modified for Spint G2. Everything worked well except NFC.
After some time new (and permament) method for unlocking Sprint G2 arrived, so I wanted to do it that way. I've made factory reset on my LS980 (with D801 T-Mobile ROM from Justin), but I didn't know, that I had to go to recovery (Vol - plus Power) for wull wipe and didn't do that. My phone is now in bootloop (T-Mobile animation goes still around ) and phone doesn't boot up. I don't know how to get it back to stock.
What works:
Download Mode (Vol + and Power), Unknown Mode (All three keys together) - there are options ON, OFF and Cancel (Answer Call and something with alarm)
What doesn't works:
Fastboot, recovery, boot
I've tried to get into recovery many times, but with no luck. I've also followed many instructions how to get it back to stock. As the main manual I took this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960

It is basically same as this:

I have reshearch and found dll from kdz is a free dll and i found your model number LS980 on My d802 kdz dll
First you should try reset by your recovery mode

And I'm not able to get into recovery, I've tried it maybe 1000 times
I'm also pretty sure, that information about correct and same .dll and TOT or KDZ files written in "Back to stock" topics is written there for very good reasons

You have luck
To day I can flash lg D820( N5 ) tot firmware in to my LG D802 using my dll from d802 kdz format
It is a free dll
Try to flash your lS980 tot with d802 kdz dll
Good luck
As I expected...LG Flash Tool won't let you do this, because it will find out that model number in DLL and TOT file is different ...I've just tested it.
KDZ extractor is also useful, because TOT files don't contain .dll
I've tested many combinations of .dll files with no luck.
D801 dll file + LS980 TOT file = error in different BIN a DLL file
LS980 dll file + LS980 TOT file = error in different model numbers
8974 dll file + LS980 TOT file = error "Cross DL D801 to LS980"
When I look at the phone in Download Mode, it shows D801 10c firmware.
Are u using dll from kdz file ?

dll from kdz should name as LgUp_XXXX
IN you error cross dl d801 to ls 980 just like me when i have try flash d820 tot to my d802
it show me cross dl d802 to d820
but i have change my model namber in build prop to d820 and it flash ok
let try d801 kdz dll and d801 tot
It will replase all partion on your phone and your phone will stuck on fastboot mode and yout download mode will gone
After
let erase your laf.img and reflash your own laf.img to get your download mode back
after you re get your download mode
just flash your phone with your ls980 tot and dll given with your tot file
It will be ok
I am not a rich man but i never afraid my phone will 1000% brick and will lose it
You too do not afraid

Sprint USA need True tot file and dll
LGLS980_20130925_LGFLASHv151.dll
LS980ZVA_01.zip
There are no true dll files since Sprint version uses TOT files and these files don't use dll
Anyway...I've tried all combinations and also Sprint files...no luck...I wrote it maybe three times in this topic
Still no progress with the phone, any ideas?
I am considering LG autorized services, maybe they could help...
I have the exact same issue and I have been working on it for a week straight. I have tried every combination of everything possible and no luck yet. I have even tried flashing it to think it is the d802 to no avail.
I understand if it were possible to edit the build prop to be the ls980 that it would actually work but im stuck on how to do that as the only way I can get the phone to boot is in an environment where I have no adb or keyboard and the phone reboots every 30 seconds so its basically impossible to edit that.
that might be a possibility for you if you want to give it a shot but for me I suppose ill have to keep looking.

Make sure you don't have it charging when trying to go into recovery.
Sent from my LG-LS980 using xda app-developers app
Fixed it
Check this out.
I decided to reinstall the only firmware I could... this caused random reboots, sometimes 30seconds... sometimes a few minutes.
During a reboot,I put the settings app on my first Jellybean screen (while rebooting, it was easier to get to). Then, go activate Developer mode, then put on USB debugging, and plug phone in... Mine was a little jinky, so I had to take USB out a few times, try to enable... what you are looking for is a prompt that says Allow this computer (type of thing).
Mine had a checkmark box, which said ALWAYS allow. So, that's what i did, and hit ok. After than you should be able to get into recovery.
This is the file I used:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545456
and mounted SYSTEM.... now, to install recovery, was a little problematic. I used this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545456
And, all the recoveries failed, (they have 4 options). Tried all of them, finally phone rebooted into PHILZ.
adb reboot recovery (I used this command, since I thought it was catch recovery better)
In Philz, I had ADB Access, so I just left it there (besides phone doesn't reboot).
in commandline (I am a linux user), I typed:
adb shell
cat /system/build.prop
Which allowed me to see the file
Then, in another commandline window, I typed:
adb push /build.prop /system
Now, your /build,prop might be in a different location, so don't use mine exactly.
:crying:
Hope that helps!!! When you are done, make sure you tell recovery to boot you into download mode -- this isn't required, but for me it was easier.
There, you should see the LG G2 build type, when you plug in the phone and start LGFLASHT (tOOLS.
Remember, I used the LGUP_8XXX.dll (the one for trouble)
and, the NEWER TOT, not the one in the package (it's above the package one).
I tried almost every way i saw on the forums, i have a d802 rom on my ls980 when I go to lg flash stock it fails and says cannot cross install d802 to ls980. Ive seen some with the same problem, if anyone has a solution please Help,I used optimus 1 click tool and it factory reset my phone but it was still on the same rom and now I cant even get into download mode.

Not sure but try this http://www.lg-phones.org/how-to-flash-unbrick-lg-g2-back-to-stock.html
What is your g2 model number
If your g2 is ls980 and lg flash tool think it is d802 try flash with d802 tot file first
note . You must use dll from kdz firmware
Extract dll from kdz using kdz extractor
Dll name must name as LGUP_XXXX
Flash with d802 tot
After you g2 will force to fastboot mode
That fastboot we need
If u are on fastboot
eras your recovery and flash your original laf.img using fastboot (You can find this tut by google suck as lg g2 fastboot)
that will make your download mode came back and now u can flash with your ls980 tot firmware without error

ok thanks for the reply. I just got my g2 2 days ago wasn't paying attention and pulled a dummy move and formatted data instead of formatting system and erased everything off the phone. erased my nandroid, efs, etc. I still have twrp but since my efs partions are gone my thinking was I should just go back to stock. I could side load but I really wanted to figure this out so if I ever have a warrenty issue I will know how to get the phone back to out of box stock. I got the phone brand new with LS980ZVA on it. any suggestions? should I side load? what about efs? also I don't mean to hijack this thread. thanks for any help in advance

I've done the exact same thing that you did and I found it was easier to revert back to stock but I guess it depends on how familar you are with the process of doing so. It's definately worth learning as well. Plenty of good forums on how to do it.

What is your g2 model number
If your g2 is ls980 and lg flash tool think it is d802 try flash with d802 tot file first
note . You must use dll from kdz firmware
Extract dll from kdz using kdz extractor
Dll name must name as LGUP_XXXX
Flash with d802 tot
After you g2 will force to fastboot mode
That fastboot we need
If u are on fastboot
eras your recovery and flash your original laf.img using fastboot (You can find this tut by google suck as lg g2 fastboot)
that will make your download mode came back and now u can flash with your ls980 tot firmware without error

here is a stock ZV8 http:slahslashdownloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/LS980/Stock_Firmware (Thank, autoprime), I know ZVA is floating around, just search and you should find it.
Also just a little piece of info I picked up along the way, I used the correct .dll (LGLS980_20130904_LGFLASHv151) and renamed it to the reported models .dll (LGUP_8974), after doing this LGFlash Tool then ran the update, as normal. best of luck!
So long story short I screwed my phone up and had to use LG Flash Tool to make it work again. The weird thing is, when I tried to flash a D803 .TOT file the LG Flash Tool said "wrong phone model" or something along those lines. It then said "D801" was my phone model. I searched and searched and SEARCHED for Bell D801 and could only find people saying it's D803. Well, I said screw it and downloaded TMobile's D801 .TOT and flashed it. The phone works now but it has a TMobile boot animation. It still connects to Bell fine, but here's the main issue;
Part of my touchscreen doesn't work anymore and I'm still under warranty if I can just get the phone back to stock to have it sent in. How can I do this? Any help? Also, does flashing with the LG Flash Tool make it so LG can't see I ever rooted the phone?
Thanks!
Maybe its a wind phone? I believe those are d801s because I have a bell one and that is D803

Thanks for the quick reply, but i purchased the phone at a bell store 9 months ago... This makes no sense. I really need Bell stock back...

So are you saying there is no TOT? I cant get the kdz method to work... so i need a tot.
Ok so I typed my IMEI into some site and it said my phone is indeed a D803! However, because I flashed a TMobile .TOT to the phone, my phone thinks it's a D801. Oh god... How do I fix this now?
BUMP!
Hmm I'm not sure how you can go back but if you are within warranty you can try wrecking the system (so it doesn't work) and send it in for repair... They will reinstall a new version
Maybe your bootloader or whut was d801?? Idk but can you try to flash this kdz http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G2/Stock/Canada+D803/
Then the one from bell? I hope its gonna be alright if you can flash it. Note that if you screw up with flashing then try not to wreck your system but try to repair it you itself since a system wreckage doesn't come fromself and lg doesnt need to pay the price to fix it. Even under warranty. I know lg screws up stuff but flashing is at own risk.
Edit: I sawmyour other thread so nvm.
Alright so I redownloaded LG Flash Tool and everything and I put my phone in download mode. It starts updating my firmware, it gets to 49% and then fails and says "TYPE_WPARAM_UPGRADE_ERROR" in the log. What does this mean and how do I fix it? I think when I flashed the TMobile .TOT it made my Bell phone think it is TMobile and maybe that's why I'm getting this error. How do I fix my phone and make it realize it's D803?

Change your windows language and locals like unicode to english if it wasn't
Turn off or allow the app through your antivirus.
Reinstall LG USB Driver, LG Flash Tool etc
Change the LG device in Device manager to COM port 41 or COM port 4 before connecting to PC.
See or your KDz weights around 2gb and not less then it cause that would be maybe a sign of an corrupted KDZ.
The last thing what i also think is that the Lg flash tool maybe reads the D801 in the build.prop or what and as safety measure it cuts off the flashing progress so you might change the D801 to D803 or however it was called in Bell.
Hope that one of these things could solve your problem.

Thanks for the info, but how do I change the build prop? I tried the adb usb thing and I get "device closed"
Woohoo! I fixed the bi*ch! Sorry, I'm a little excited here... Anyway, I followed the instructions above and it worked. I think the above is well written and easy to understand except for one thing: How to change build number (if you're like me and flashed the wrong TOT).
It's simple. Make sure you have a rooted phone and download root explorer (black icon with a little android face). Next, follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948558
Make sure you change the model number before you try flashing the kdz only if you messed up with tot flashing like me. Otherwise, as mentioned above, make sure you're on COM41. This worked great. Now I can take my bell phone back to the store and have it seen to (I have a hardware issue with the screen no sensing touch in certain areas).

Great to hear that it worked yes about that build.prop editing i wasn't clear sorry for that but good that it worked now.
I had a rooted LG G2 D802 on EE with KK update that was working fine until today...
I tried to flash a nice custom rom to it and well, to cut a long story short something went wrong and the next thing i know i have a phone which only shows up as about 10 hdd's in windows, and as QHSUSB_BULK in device manager.
I couldn't get it to go into download mode or anything, so i followed the Unbricking guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142
Unfortunately this appeared to do nothing for the phone, so i used the Tung Lee guide and this also did nothing.
After i did the above guide the phone was no longer recognised in windows or Linux, but thanks to this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/lg-g2-unbrickable-fix-real-hard-brick-t2904404
I was able to at least get it back to the state it was in in the first place.
After following all these guides i am now at a loss as to how to sort my phone out,and i'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction for a fix..
When the phone was working, i put the imei into the firmware engine and it found me the D80220H firmware, i have tried using the bin files from the first guide and from D80220B as well with no luck, so i was wondering if one of the above guides do indeed work, how can i get the .img files i need from a D80220H KDZ?
Its been a long night and i'm now currently without my phone, i'm hoping someone can help and i can get my beloved G2 back to a working state before the weekend.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post.

Have you simply tried the LG Flash Tool? When it happened to me once, i simply reg
Flashed kdz using this tool and voila!!! Try and report
@Shadowhunta Are you using the twrp IMG from that first guide? That might explain why this isnt working. Extract the kdz using this tool
Flash the aboot, boot and laf then try download mode.

I was using the TWRP from that post, but then i downloaded the latest one and that didn't make any difference, I haven't tried that tool properly yet to get the .img files needed from the KDZ i have for D80220H, but i have flashed the aboot, boot and laf of D80220B and that didn't help either, i couldn't get it into recovery mode, download mode or anything! With the first tutorial i managed to get it into Hard reset mode, but it just hung on processing.
Thanks for the suggestions, i will try them during lunch and get back to you both, thank you so far!
Anyone else had the same problem as me, keep the suggestions coming, all are helpful and appreciated

Followed that, still nothing, won't boot into recovery mode, only thing it does is show in windows as a load of local disks, and QHSUSB_BULK in device manager with a yellow exclamation mark
I've followed all the advice so far given and none of it worked, i think i'm screwed :/
