[Q] [HELP] LG GT540 Totally bricked!

Hi everyone. i take my friends lg gt540 last night to install the cm7 rom so i folow the instructions in that page and when kdz starts flashing stucks and gives to me a error. trying to get phone to download mode but the phone was dead no download mod kdz cant find the phone couse is like no battery connected. i follow all instructions in modaco everything. the prob is that i cant get the phone to download mode even drivers are installed even connected from back to usb port.
please dont tell me that i must take it to lg for fixing it. no waranty he bought it from a tourist really cheap nm.
maybe solution is to find a way to get to download mode.(volume down+power doesnt work,volume down+usb cable doesnt wok,no charger signal)
thank you (sry for my english)!

try using KDZ emergency mode maybe will work.. I forgot about how to flash KDZ since I dont use it much

try putting it on CS_EMERGENCY,this is for non working phones. do you hear sound when you connect your phone to pc?

No imagine a phone without battery. I try everything. So when i connect to pc must doing a noise? about kdz cant use it couse show me phone not found error. I will give a last try

leave battery in the phone. you should hear a sound that you know that is connected. did you disable LG virtual modem in device manager?

i try everything in a net coffee installing lg drivers only and used the instructions. yesterday i install and lg program disable modem still no luck. so if phone just doing that noise means that is connect it but how must kdz find the phone if the phone is not installed. (i mean not the lg drivers but the phone when is in usb debaging smth is installed in pc from phone) i search everywhere and everybody can get to download screen exept me grrr is not my phone orelse i will throught it from the window. so if the the noise is ringing means is connectid no need for download screen? thanks you and sry for my english!

you need that sound and download mode unfortunately. try installing new drivers and new KDZ and try again. if not take it to the LG service. do you have recovery installed?

as far as i know its power + camera button.
Hold them down until backlight comes on. If you need it fixed by LG just lie about what happened. Dont tell them it died when you were installing a custom rom. Also from what i understand you cant get it to even turn on in any way? Or connect to a computer?

[Q] <SOLVED>Completely bricked korean ver F320s G2

Hey guys , my not so smart friend tryed to be smart and tryed to flash custom rom WITHOUT rooting, and WITHOUT any recovery :highfive:. Long story short the phone is bricked completely. Mainly it stuck in LG logo for a long time and sometimes it actually load the system but crashes after a few secs, again, to LG logo.
Is there any way to root the phone without going into the system( usb debugging etc)?
p.s.
tryed to do factory reset and the result as above.
Thank you in advance guys!
After 7 hours I found a solution to this insane situation. I never had to recover such a dead phone. No root, no recovery , no backup, no rom on the device. Any way Im proud of myself
If someone has the same problem I might be able to help!

Yeah, I told him to wait for my help (not that im a pro,but i had some experience rooting and installing roms on htc sensation and now on my galaxy 4)..
Any way, as we speak I am downloading stock rom and will try to use the flash tool but Im really doubtfull It will work as well.
Thank you for the answer!

After installing the driver, when the phone is powered off, no. When the phone turn on, no. When the operating system turns on, I dont know, not enough time (phone restarts after a few secs).
I do hear the indication sound from windows that something is connected but nothing turns up..

I did it! wow, took 7 hours ! :victory:
Just so you know how :
1. Need to be in fastboot mode
2.Do like in this thread with the CMDhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477595
3. Then basicly follow the steps here http://choimobile.vn/threads/huong-dan-cuu-soft-brick-lg-g2-f320s-l-k.12932.html
4. Whats important though I think is turn off your computers internet connection, dont know why, but it will fail otherwise.

Step By step
After you collect those DLL & TOT files, here's step by step :
1. Disconnect any internet connection
2. Set the computer time before Juli 15th, 2012 ( I set March 1st, 2012)
3. Double click LG Flashtool. Username, password, and Registration key are on the link #1 post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2396048
4. Insert DLL file in DLL column. Browse to where you put the DLL file.
5. Insert TOT file in Software column. Browse to where you put the TOT file.
6. Click OK
7. Click the GEAR icon, set only port #1 that ticked. Other ports are UNTICKED. Click OK.
8. Press & hold volume UP , while connecting the USB cable to your computer (set to DOWNLOAD MODE). Until the phone shows "DOWNLOAD MODE" on the center of the screen.
9. Open System Properties. Device manager ->Set COM port for LG Handset using port 41.
10. Click Arrow Right in LG Flashtool, disconnect USB cable for 5 seconds. Reconnect USB cable.
11. The FLASH process in progress, wait for 600 seconds and shows green background say "PASS".(In my case at around 86% The phone already worked, the flashtool still did his thing and failed at 90 something percent.Doesnt metter because phone works)
12. Disconnect USB cable and close the LG Flashtool application.

wow props to ya...how did u get the IMEI back?

Why kids messin with phones when they dont know what they doin .. aaahhh

STUCK at LG Logo, NO Download mode..Please HELP!!

hi all,
I have posted my G2 problem in another thread but was hoping more people can see it and help me...
PHONE Stuck at LG Logo after power up.
NO Download Mode,
here goes..
Believed I was conned... and this could be what happened to my LG G2 'D802':
my mobile is actually a D801 phone (motherboard) NOT D802 but loaded with D802 ROM
Phone was flashed (by me) with D802 ROM to remove error "Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped" caused by corrupted Build.Prop system file during some editing.
touch screen error after new ROM was flashed (tried many diff roms), likely due to incompatible phone settings.
unable to flash D801 kdz since the phone was configured to 'D802', incorrect model detected while trying to flash.
managed to get a D801 TOT file that can resolved the incompatible model issue
Flash completed, phone rebooted..STUCKED at LG LOGO!
pressed Vol+ and USB cable, cannot enter download mode...stucked..
Factory reset using hardware keys, same problem..
please help ! any suggestion/s would be greatly appreciated!! thank you!!

use flashtool with another *dll

His download mode is not functional.
When in factory reset - connect to pc(does it throw errors or add a new device?)
If yes..then - read this
If no then still read it.

Just plug your cable to usb. Turn off phone and inmediately hold the button up and ull be in download mode.
Or If U have 801 rom try to root your phone and do recovery as 801 phone, after flash 802 rom !

Wait so what can you do? Hard reset? Download mode? Nothing?
Can you plug your phone and check that your phone is not detected in device manager?
All the drivers are installed?

Are you sure download mode isn't working? Easiest way is this... With phone off, hold ONLY the up volume key. Then while holding, plug in the phone to the PC. What does it do?

Really messed up G2 F320L, hard bricked pls help :(

Hello all,
I have got LG G2 F320L. From the begining: I have got no baseband in it.. I restored it with @grandixximo way, but still I can't call anyone.. So I managed to do one really bad thing... I flashed this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbJQ09q_1P8#t=27
I don't thought, this will brick my device. I entered TWRP, flashed this, and again flashed TWRP(I was sure, if this rom will not start, I will restore backup from TWRP. I flashed this and first, i tried to reboot to recovery, but there was Security error, and next was Critical error.. So I took out the baterry, and pluged it again and turned on the phone. The next and the worst error is this:

That's all. And I don't have Download Mode, there is only fastboot mode (I can't flash anything via this, just stopping at "flashing boot...". What can I do now? I don't want to give it to repair service... Please help guys it's very big problem(I think, I'm first guy on this world who totally messed up bootloader )

First thing your not, I messed my f320k so much i couldnt repair it by anyway on SRK tool.
sent it to repair, afraid of even touching the motherboard.
they will try to fix it,
i hope for my best
about your problem, can you try to click volume up for download?
see if it does anything, if it boots into download mode, you're set.
if it says in the bottom "Jumped to Dload" then you can try to flash KDZ/TOT but it probably will fail in some point of the flashing process.
you can try shortening the pins if you have the guts to touch the motherboard.
good luck!

So,
I tried this vol+ to enter Dload mode, but it don't want to turn in this mode. I tried with flash but flashtool 2014 stopped at 4%, flashtool 1.5 can't even start, but there is one thing. I think I just flashed "laf" partition, because when I plug this to charger, it shows the battery is loading. Do you have any idea to make this phone turning to QHusb_BULK mode?

Yup, and thats shortening the pins, look up through threads/videos how to do it. on F320 its easier cus the battery is loose, so just look up how to do it.
if you do do it, make sure to download the files for F320L.
Good Luck

BAD NEWS AND GOOD NEWS
Bad news is that, I can't find the C5000 and C5004 pins the processor looks very weird That's what my phone is showing inside and this System error:
Mobo: http://www.fotosik.pl/zdjecie/6b2039fe08bb584c
Error: http://www.fotosik.pl/zdjecie/3461c68c16e7e20a
Sometimes if I click the vol- to restart, it shows SK Telecom logo.

One more question, will the lcd and digitizer were good to D802? I can buy this one with broken screen and replace with that from F320L
GOOOOD NEWS!
So, I repaired the phone by shortening the pins Thanks bro, theard to close
