I have the verizon G2 rooted, it is stock recovery however I deleted bloat apps using rootbrowser a while back. It accepts OTA update and reboots, then gives Error and goes back to normal screen. I believe this is because of the apps I deleted. I don't have a backup of them. Is there any way to just copy stock apps back into the apps folder?
Easiest thing is to flash your phone back to stock with the LG Flashtool then let it take the OTA. You can root it again with ioroot25 and add busy box via a Play Store app.

Did you unplug and re-plug in the phone as instructed?
From the guide..
3) Now click the yellow arrow in the top left of the main window. It will prepare and maybe give a milky way error (seriously) ignore it until it says finished, or ready.
4) Now unplug your phone, power off and then go back into download mode again, volUp+USB. It should immediately connect and start flashing.
Just a tip, to power off from Download mode, hold in the power button for about 10 seconds.

Did you verify in Device Manager on your PC that it's also set to Com41?
1) Go ahead and put phone in Download mode by VolUp + plug in USB to PC. At this time your computer should install the device, if it hadnt already. Open device manager to check if un der "Ports (Com and LPT)" it shows up as LGE AndroidNet for VZW USB Serial Port (COM##) IF the COM number is anything other than 41, which it probably will be. Right click it in device manager and choose peroperties, then go to port settings tab and click advanced. On the bottom choose COM41 and hit OK. (if you get an error about it being in use I'll write more about that later)
I missed that the first time around.

There is only a 11A tot then you need to take the OTA.
It's all listed there in the return to stock guide in the general section.

Really going to be slightly irritated at myself if it's a brick.
Going to try to flash the stock .kdz.
Guess rooting isn't going to happen with this device.

Crap--- I am almost in the same boat here-- except no recovery, no download mode. Plugged in the computer, it is not seen as an Android device. None of the LG tools recognize it even after installing drivers
To Anyone who gets problem to unbrick your LG Optimus L3 e400
It Really works for me.
How to instal LG Firmware using KDZ Updater
1. Download and Install USB driver for Lg L3 e400 from LG website or here
2.Download and install MSXML 4.0 SP3. here.
3.Download KDZ Updater here then extract it to your computer.
4. Download KDZ file according to your country or any compatible KDZ file. Download here
How to use KDZ:
1. Detach your external SD from your phone.
2. Remove your phone battery and wait for a few seconds.
3. Put your battery back to the phone.
4. Press volume - and + (or just in the middle of volume button) and power button at the same time.
5. wait till the phone screen turns to yellow (emergency mode) then release all the buttons.
6. Connect your phone to PC by using USB cable (your LG cable).
7. Stop or disable your antivirus or antimalware.
8. Run KDZ Updater as administrator.
9. Choose the following options in KDZ Updater:
Type: 3GQCT
Phone Mode: DIAG
and browse KDZ file is the one you downloaded, browse where you put this file and then select.

I hope this could unbrik your LG L3 phone.

I have 4.0.4 ICS (cm9) on my LG L3 (e400), I tried to flash to stock since official 4.4 (kitkat) is coming soon but it does nothing, just reboots normally after flashing (no errors reported with kdz flasher) with my wallpaper and everything, and it says that my battery is charging but it's not connected to charger or computer. Any ideas?
I did everything from the guide, step by step, and I'm stuck on this error: Upgrade Error: Wparam: 100 LParam :1010
I especially looked ower firmware, and I'm positive that I downloaded the right one.
I tried several times, and every time I get this error. Also, phone now boots to Emergency mode, and can't boot to something else.
Don't know what to do? Anyone help?
Just reinstall driver, reboot pc after instalation and run kdz as admin.

You can only enter emergency mode because you haven't finished installing_KDZ. If I were you I would try download and install another KDZ file.
It will only work when you get the right KDZ file for your device. Don't worry to try another KDZ file.
Try another KDZ updater,
Unable antivirus and firewall.
Keep on trying. I hope these will unbricked your phone.

Have you tried entering into CWM?
If so, then you should do factory reset, wipe cache, and go to advance then wipe dalvik cache then restart your phone.

For those you stuck and cannot flash back to stock ROM. enter to CWM, and leave it there. Connect to PC and flash with EMERGENCY mode (not DIAG)
Works perfectly, tested in Windows 8
Thanks!

I went to device manager and found my device, clicked properties and uninstalled the drivers. However when I try to install the ones in the guide you linked it still says they are there.

Alright I downloaded those drivers and repeated the steps (device manager, update software, choose from list, uncheck compatible) and nothing with LG or LGE popped up.

Ok I'm still having trouble, I installed the LG drivers you linked, installed LG FLash tools and didn't run (like it says in the guide), extracted TOT to desktop. I put the phone into download mode then it immediate goes into "Firmware Update" and it is stuck at 0%. In the guide it says it should initialize and load up drivers and I should see LG device under Device Manager. I do not see any device now. Maybe I need to use the old drivers in the guide?

I'll detail each step I've done
Install
1. Install the LG drivers downloaded above. Installed the drivers you gave me.
2. Install LGFlashTools v1.6 (but don't run it) Check
3. Extract the TOT file from the ZIP Check
Drivers initialization
1. Put the phone into download mode. (Turn off device PRESS VOL UP while plugging in the micro usb cable. If this doesn't work, try holding both volume keys instead) Check
2. Let the phone initialize and install the drivers. Once done, in Device manager, you should see the LG phone listed under COM ports (something along these lines). Doesn't initialize or install drivers! As I am typing this my device just disappeared from Device Manager, however, LGE AndroidNet USB Seriel Port (com4) has popped up
3. Find that LG entry in Device Manager, click on Properties, Advanced and then change the COM port to COM41 and close/save.
4. Unplu

Ok here is where I am at.
4. Execute the LGFlashTools. It should ask you for a key, put it in. Now you should see a dialog where you can load the DLL file and the TOT files that you extracted earlier. Put them both in here. Click ok Check
Flashing
5. There is a yellow arrow on the top left. Click on it to initialize the process. Once done, it should say "ready/finished" or whatever. Clicked it and got this error "MilkyWay Control Port Open FAIL!!!."
6. Put the phone in download mode again, and plug it into the USB port. LG FLash Tools should start flashing it automatically. When it's done, it'll automatically reboot into your stock AT&T rom and all of your data and internal sdcard files are gone. Errors here too "Device Model is different!

Hi. I have a Verizon LG G2 VS980, which I rooted a few days ago. I had some trouble flashing TWRP and that has caused some issues now. When my phone is turned on, it just recycles the Verizon animation. When I try to do a hard reset, I get a "secure booting error" and then the phone turns off. When I go into download mode to possibly download firmware updates it just sits at 0%. I'm completely lost and can't seem to find any help that is unique to my problem. If you can help, please leave very detailed instructions. Thank you.

When my phone is turned on, it just recycles the Verizon animation. When I try to do a hard reset, I get a "secure booting error" and then the phone turns off. When I go into download mode to possibly download firmware updates it just sits at 0%. I'm completely lost and can't seem to find any help that is unique to my problem. If you can help, please leave very detailed instructions. Thank you.

I did the KDZ method, but the LG Mobile Support Tool stops and says "lost connection to server". Then I click retry and it stops at 2% and says "Upgrade stopped due to an error". I've retried many times. Also, I made sure to download the KDZ file under Verizon. I don't understand.

Kdz should be fine.
LG Mobile Support Tool?? You should be using LG FLASH TOOL mentioned in the post.
Did u download all the files and drivers needed?
To enter Download Mode press and holding vol up key insert the usb cable.
If Normal flash doesnt work try CSE flash located at the bottom of the tool.

During the process, the LG Flash Tool opens up the LG Mobile Support Tool. Yes, I downloaded the verizon kdz file and both drivers. I followed the guide but no luck.

Strange problem!!
Try uninstalling LG Mobile Support Tool and try again every step very carefully.
If that also fails, hope u got warranty, so take it to service center and i think its the best option as of now.

The same thing was happening to mine! All I did to fix it was....
1. Make sure its turned off by holding the power button until the lg logo stops popping up
2. Hold down Power button+Volume down at the same time
3. Let go of both when you see the lg logo come up and quickly hold down on the power button again
4. From here a white screen will come up saying something like (to factory reset press the power button)
5. After you press it TWRP or Clockwork revovery will come up depending on what you installed
6. Recover your backup
I really hope this helped you!
Hello guys, long time lurker here. I have a Verizon LG G2 (VS980). I had Mal rom and I wanted CM11. Don't remeber what version of TWRP I had but I made a nandroid backup. Tried to install and didn't work and I did some other stuff (don't remember). Phone was bricked.
I could get to the restore screen (power & vol -), i'd press power twice and it would just go to a black sceen. I would try vol+ & usb and it took me to a dos looking screen and something about fastboot. I fixed that one by "nuking my laf".
Now I can get to the download screen. It says FIRMWARE UPDATE with arrows and progress bar. in the bottom box it says B0 and ROOTED.
My device manager under PORTS says "LGE AndroidNet for VZW USB Serial Port (COM41). Just above it it says "Communications Port (COM42).
I did the KDZ method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
Downloaded the Verizon VS98024A_11.kdz file and 3 other files. I ran LGFlashTool2014 as administrator and followed instruction word for word. I picked CSE Flash. After I select country and language LG Mobile Support Tool pops up and does some stuff, look good at this point BUT during "S/W Upgrade is in progress 4%" it says my phone disconnected.
My phone has COM41 in green with 9% progress and also this in the bottom box:
U VUSER 526.2 AS5.1 B41 UHS
S U VS980 4G 04.2.2 Hrev_11
VS98012B
VS98024B
ROOTED
I tried a different USB port and it gets to 9% on the phone and status bar restarts, gets to 9% and restarts. LGMS Tool says "Upgrade stopped due to error"
I did try the TOT method. No matter what file I download when I extract it says "checksum error file is corrupt"
I need to fix this or the Cpt will kill me since my phone is so vital to work. Please help me, its been 3 days without it.
Either getting it back to stock or somehow getting twrp on it to restore to nandroid would be great. anything to make it work again
