After basically reinstalling stock recovery, my phone went into a software update. However, it soon gave an error message, after which I turned off the phone (it said not to, but I was rather panicked). Now, the phone is stuck at the LG logo. I can turn it off, but it turns on soon after. I haven't been able to get it into download mode and my computer doesn't seem to be able to detect it at all. Help?

I GOT IT INTO DOWNLOAD MODE! Can anyone direct me from here? I suspect I'll probably have to use the flash tool, but I don't exactly know how to use it. I'm going to google it.

You never mentioned what variant you have... whats your phone model number?
Perfect. You have download mode which means its a soft-brick. It doesn't show up because you need to install the drivers.
Follow instructions 100% in this thread. I was in the exact situation as you after an update.
I would suggest to use the 2nd method. Instructions halfway down the page.
"RETURN TO STOCK TOT Method! AT&T & Sprint Verzion & The Few International TOTs I have available Also T-Mobile Can be Flashed back this way if you are having issues!"

I think you need to consult a Tier 2 rep on your network provider, Worst case scenario, you need to return the phone and replaced it when you got the warranty.

Hi there,
I am pretty new with this stuff, as I just got this phone today. It came with Froyo2.2 so I unrooted it back to the original JFK.
It did not come with a sim card, so I do not have a sim inside the phone as of now. But I do have a bell sim that I will use after to put the unlock key in... Is that okay?
I Connected the vibrant through Mini Kies and the MTP application says its connected.
I just re rooted from J16 back to the original.
I have the 64 bit drivers installed.
When I try to run Generate Unlock Windows Script I get the following error message saying...
Copy nv_data.bin
*daemon not running. Starting it now *
*daemon started succesfully *
error: device not found
error unable to find file <.\nv_data.bin>
could not find C:\documents and settings\1\desktop\key\generateunlockwindows\nv_data.bin
Anyone know what this means?
Or know what to do in this situation?
I am not sure if I should try installing the 32bit drivers or what.
how did you downgrade the phone from android 2.2?
I just bought the phone through ebay with the OS already at 2.2, and the phone is locked to t-mobile. I've heard it is not possible to unlock it with the 2.2 update. Is that true?

Yup, having exact same problem. If you find a fix let me know.
Make sure your usb setting is on debug and you have all of the files for the unlock on your pc. You also need java installed.
That method worked for me from stock.

Fixing so-called "Bricks"/Odin Errors
This guide is open to contribution/editing/correcting
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOOT CYCLE
This is where you get the annoying Samsung Screen/Galaxy S screen.
DOWNLOAD REQUIRED (CREDITS TO JUSTANOTHERCROWD):
1. Get into Download Mode (WITH THE PHONE PLUGGED IN) by following the steps below
*Turn off the phone until you get to the charging battery screen (keep in mind, your phone is currently PLUGGED IN)
*Press volume up and down, and power all at once.
*As soon as the screen turns black, release your power button.
2. Unplug phone from USB
3. Open Odin (in Administrator if you're running W7 or Vista), try one of the ones I attached to this post, at least one of them is bound to work, some don't work for me, but works for others, some doesn't work for others, but works for me, whatever floats your boat
4. Load in the files into Odin that you have downloaded from above Just load in the files corresponding to the text field.
DO NOT CHECK REPARTITION.
5. Plug in your phone with the DL mode
6. Click start and wait for the magic
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NO-BOOT PHONES
This is where your phone does NOT turn on, no combo of buttons works and power button does nothing.
DO THIS ONLY WHEN YOU PLUG IN YOUR PHONE AND NOTHING SHOWS UP ON THE SCREEN!!! If else, follow the steps from above.
This method is basically same as above, EXCEPT the way you get into Download Mode as your phone is HARD BROKEN.
1. Download all the files required in the "BOOT CYCLE" section of this post.
2. Remove everything from your phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your computer WITHOUT the battery, as you have already taken it out in the last step.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download Mode.
7. Unplug phone from USB
8. Follow steps 4-8 from the "BOOT CYCLE" section.
Troubleshooting:
-Odin stuck at some random process?
*Switch to another odin
*Make sure you did NOT check repartition, if you did, just repeat all the steps over again, except for the downloading parts, obviously.
-Phone not responsive?
*Try "NO-BOOT PHONES"section of this guide
-Phone stuck at Galaxy S logo screen?
*Put it in to DL mode, and run Odin again, it's just a bad install.
-All three ODIN is nonfunctional, stuck or giving "FAILED" errors?
*DO NOT CLOSE ODIN ONCE IT HAS FAILED!
*Unplug your phone
*Replug in your phone, get it into DL mode
* Unplug once it is in DL mode
*Replug and ODIN should recognize your phone
*Leave all the settings the same, then click "Start" again.
-Cannot get into download mode using the method I listed? Use the method(s) below:
Soldering Method
More methods coming soon
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know how much of a pain posting in the Q/A section can be and the wait time is pretty bad, so if you need help regarding UNBRICKING and ONLY UNBRICKING feel free to post in here.[/S

If you want help you are going to have to be a lot more specific. What have you actually tried?
Just a tip, people will not help you on these forums if you ask for help without showing you've tried to solve the problem and know how to search.
There are loads of unlock threads. Almost everyone get one method to work eventually.
Hey guys,
The inevitable has happened: I've finally bricked a device that I can't seem to find the solution to online. Here's what happened:
1. When I got the phone a little over a week ago, I accidentally "broke" the recovery by trying to install CWM through Rom Manager. Turns out that's not something you generally want to do. Oops.
2. I got lazy and put off restoring the stock recovery, instead choosing to deal with the stock launcher.
3. Today, while dealing with the 50th pop-up for the OTA update, I accidentally pressed "Install Now" instead of "Install Later"
Now, when it boots, it briefly shows the LG logo before displaying an all-black screen with small white text reading:
[730] Fastboot mode started
[780] udc_start()
I get a little bit more text when I plug it into my PC. I've been trying to fix it for the past three hours - I've tried countless solutions, but nothing seems to work.
Can anyone out there give me some advice? I'd greatly appreciate it.

So... I followed the guide I posted earlier. It talks about entering download mode, which I'm not able to do, and my phone isn't seen in Device Manager as "LGE AndroidNet for VZW..." (Oddly, it's seen as a "SAMSUNG Android Phone," and under that is "USB Modem Phone ADB port").
When I unplugged and replugged the phone back in, trying to enter download mode even though I haven't been successful with that, nothing happened. LG Flash says it's ready, but nothing activated.
Help??
When it says it's ready unplug it while in download mode and plug it back in.. Make sure you have the ports set right

After 6+ hours of work, I finally have my phone up and running again. Thank you so, so much antawnm. You're awesome for helping me through this. Though that link provided wasn't perfect (it was for the Korean model) it provided me with enough clues to combine it with everything else you sent me and some files I found in a directory (especially the recovery.img file for the VZW LG G2) to get back right to where I was.
The funniest part was, after the phone rebooted itself and I got back to my home screen, the phone informed me that my software update was unsuccessful. I genuinely laughed.
Thanks again.
I have the Lg g2 D800 varient, and tonight I got an update for 15.4mb, that pushed without my permission, and now my screen is on a black screen, upon rebooting after said update was installed. I am rooted, but no plans to update to 4.4, it just did it without consent..

you can try this but you need Ubuntu and I'm not exactly sure it will work(also you need to find the correct files for your model), also if your phone is under warranty you can try taking it to att store and telling them update killed your phone but of course don't mention anything about root

okay now you have to be quick when you do this to get into download mode...
plug your usb into your phone and have it hanging in the usb port in the computer or plug.
now hold the power button until it turns off.
quickly plug in the port/plug and hold the up button.
you have to do it really quickly. took me a few tries.
once in download mode restore to factory whichever image you choose.
ive had this done a couple times to my phone and it does work if you act quickly.

Just get a virtual machine, it does the job just fine.
I did it with VirtualBox and Ubuntu. And make sure, you disable auto mount usb in ubuntu to prevent opening the 20 "partition" windows.
My friend bought a new LG G2 and wanted a custom rom. He tried to flash a custom recovery tool through fastboot but did not unlocked the bootloader. After this the phone booted up in recovery and showed a couple of error messages. He reflashed all of the partitions of the phone and restarted it, put the official firmware but to his surprise his touchscreen was a mess, everything he clicked on was offset by 50 to 200 pixels, and its all scrambled up. He tried flashing custom roms, official roms but is the same, even in TWRP the same problem with the LCD panel. Now the phone has SlimKat and I could activate the feedback of the touches, it's incredible, I can't understand it.
Can someone tell me where the driver for the touch is, or what to repair in order the have the screen control back. I have uploaded some images of the touches feedback.

Yep, he and I flashed I bunch of times the official rom but nothing changed. I think it has something to do with the boot are aboot partition, there is where the kernel is booted up and there is our problem, but I need someone more good at the low level arhitecture to guide me through. I repeat the same problem hapens when you go in to recovery.

I noticed a nother problem, the radio of the device is off and cant connect to the network, in conclusion when I try the code the phone gives a message to turn off the airplane mode. I will try to reinstall the official ROM.

No luck, still the same problem. Any other ideas guys, I really cant stand it.
Did you try the touch calibration setting? It may or may not help.

Where are exactly these calibration settings?
Ignore that, Ive gotten it confused with another phone, G2 only has motion calibration in main settings, I just checked mine.

Does anyone has an idea what my caused this. Please I really want to fix the problem.
Real help will not be ignored!!!
Question regarding model
Ok, I found something very weird, at this point I really dont know if the phone is a g2 D802 or D800. I've taken the back cover of the phone and found that on the back is a d800, the back cover of the phone states that is a d802, but when I check the imei using a website imei info it says its a d800. The D800 is for AT&T and the D802 is the international one, what is going on here...I am confused...
I smell something fishy as well. Perhaps the phone has been opened before and the rear cover was replaced. Make sure you are usuing the D800 firmware and modem baseband firmware.
Flash both of those and see what happens!
I am somewhat new at rooting, though I have rooted 3 phones. I was rooted on Android 4.4.2 and when I flashed a ROM for 5.0 my screen turned black. It won't turn on, I can't get into recovery or download mode, and when I connect it to my computer through USB it registers it as QHSUSB_BULK. I am stuck right now, is a JTAG the only way to fix it?

Does it charge or at least get warm? What ROM did you flash? Did you flash it via safestrap?
Can you access that bulk folder on your computer?

I don't know if it is charging and I flashed a rooted stock ROM for 5.0 (OA8) and it was via safestrap. How would I access the bulk folder, as it says driver is not installed?
A Verizon ROM? I thought you said a folder came up on your PC called something bulk.

It is not a folder, it detects my phone through usb as that. I don't know why, maybe I flashed the wrong ROM?
You were supposed to go back into download mode from safestrap and flash the OA8 kernel

After further investigation, the file I flashed was OA1, but the download said OA8. I should have been more careful. Is there anything I can do now?
It probably is a brick. Pull your your battery for at least 10 minutes and try again. Still not sure where it is saying bulk folder.

Okay, I will get back to you on that in around 15-20 minutes. And it does not have a bulk folder anywhere, what happens is an alert pops up on bottom of screen saying "driver not successfully installed" and when I click to check the driver it says QHSUSB_BULK where it should say Galaxy s5. Hopefully you understand, as I want to fix my phone.
Oh, under devices. This is probably a brick. Sorry.

How can I fix it, and how can I tell if it is a hard brick or a soft brick? Also, after 10 minutes with battery out, I cant turn on, or boot into recovery/download mode.
Try charging it. If it doesn't even feel warm it is a hard brick.

Anything I can do from that point on?
Like you mentioned, JTAG. There are JTAG services out there. I actually bought a riff box because I bricked my s4 but I got my warranty company to give me a new phone so I never had to use it.

yes, and I just did some google searches and is there a way to use a debrick.img or something on sd card to fix?

Here is a debrick IMG. I'm on 4.4.4 so I'm not sure it will work.
Edit. I think I'll have to make one 4.4.2 specific. I'll get back to you.

Thank you so much. One question though, what is the file extension, should it be .img?

What I gave you is what the debrick creator spit out.
