[Q] G2 d800 with d802 rom/firmware bad flash

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.

You can still get into recovery right? You try sideloading a correct rom?

Unfortunately not. It's in a boot loop and when I hold power and volume down it just goes to
[800] fast lot mode started
[850] udc_start()
And that's all I get can i force it into recovery another way

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.

Tried it with the d802 dll file and d800. Still fails for me.
Here is the d802.dll
https://www.dropbox.com/s/77isqnkeuixkj6u/LGD802_20130912_LGFLASHv160.dll

well i tried it and it said i have the wrong bin now -_- guess i cant flash the stock .tot then since the phone actually thinks its a d802 now

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

if you can stay longger in fastboot mode
try flash VZ laf.img
fastboot erase laf
fastboot flash laf laf.img
here how to and tool for fastboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477595
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

[Q] Help, installed D800 into LS980!

So I got this phone a few days ago. It was originally rooted, so I wanted to go back to factory settings just because I bought this from someone and wanted to get rid of everything. The guy failed to tell me it was an LS980. I had AT&T and installed the D800 image. Now, I can't install the LS980 because the flash tool says it's wrong. My phone will boot up, but for only 30 seconds or so. I can go to download mode.
Please give me some very precise instructions. I'm new to Android and I don't know much about them yet.

okay in this thread there is a dll that skips the check of the phone so as long as you grab the correct stock file to flash for your phone you should be able to flash back to ls980 rom

Is there another image I can put in that will go to LS980? I didn't get the wrong version error like I did with the original dll.

yes because that dll bypasses the phone model check but I've never gotten that error

Anyone else have any ideas? I used that dll file that ignores checks and I get a failure saying "CrossDL [D800] to [LS980]" I've also used both of the "back to stock" and "LS980zv8" .tot
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm phoneless right now.

Anyone?

[Q] CrossDL [D800] to [LS980]

My phone is caught in a boot loop. I bought this phone and decided to restore the stock firmware on it, which for my carrier (AT&T) would be the D800 firmware. What the seller failed to tell me was that is was a Sprint phone. So I loaded the wrong firmware and now it's stuck unrooted and in a bootloop. I'm using the dll file that ignores the version check, but as soon as it connects to the LG Flash Tool, it comes up with the error "CrossDL [D800] to [LS980]"
Can anyone help me?

+1 Still need help.

stuck....ls980 thinks it is the d800

my ls980 thinks it is the d800 and I can't seem to flash it back to the ls980.
I flashed a custom ROM thru twrp and I got an error. I tried restoring the backup and the system partition would not mount. after poking around for quite some time I tried restoring the phone in download mode. apparently the computer thought it was the d800 and flashed the system for that phone. when it restarted I saw the at&t boot screen and when it started up it was not working correctly.
I put it back in download mode and tried flashing the phone again. the computer was sure it was the d800. then I tried flashing manually using the DLL intended to convert this and the tot file for the ls980. I get the error saying I can't convert from the d800 to the ls980.
I then tried flashing thru adb from both windows and linux. both say they cannot find the phone regardless how I try connecting.
since I flashed the factory files the phone will not start in recovery mode I have no clue why.
so now I have a phone that:
will not flash the ls980 tot file,
will not connect to adb,
and will not boot into recovery.
now what?

Dang dude. Harsh. I almost ended up in this same situation after downloading files for the wrong device and noticed literally at the last second and was able to pull the plug, literally, and save my device.
I've been looking for ways to fix it in case it happens again and I don't catch it in time, so if I find the answer I'll let you know. There has to be a way to trick the computer into thinking it's a LS980 like it's supposed to be the same way it thought the phone was a d800.
Sent from my LG-LS980 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I was told that there was a DLL file that could be used when flashing it to trick it into thinking it's the ls980 but all I get is an error message I forget exactly what the message says but something to the extent that I don't have the right files for the phone that I have.

yo man have you tried using LGNPST, we're in the same boat, i'm waiting for my some downloads on firmwares to try, i'm using LS980 but it thinks it's a VS980 still working on figuring out from my end. i've also heard that the LG mobile support tools can be used to restore the firmware but you gotta do some funny hot swap lol

woops im a little slow here. what is LGNPST ? I solved the issue by manually editing the build.prop file and that tells the lg mobile support tool that it is a different phone. that was a whole different complicated story of its own but it worked.
sorry I didnt see your comment until now.

def sounds like you used the wrong dll or just the stock lg dll which works with some phones, but others need their specific dll to match the tot and such to make a proper bootloader flash over i believe.

I did fix the issue by changing the ATT TOT file using a HEX Editior to Verizon tags, So when using LG Flash Tools, It'll flash it. Then Root it, install ATT recovery, and flash an ATT rom using Cloudy Rom. Then back to LG Flash Tools to flash a completly stock ATT.
Only issue I'm still having is I lost my IMEI and didn't have one back up. There is a Tut on how to get it back using QSPT, but I'm currently looking for a professional to that job for me...Phone is normal everything work except for my Mobile data and cell service.
If anything I can show you the right direction where to edit the TOT file and etc..
