A friend of mine accidentally deleted his ROM on his LS980. I took his phone home today to try and fix it for him.
It still boots into TWRP (luckily). I tried ADB sideload, and I manage to install ROMs with no issue, but the device boots right back into TWRP on its own. I also have access to download mode and tried the LG FlashTool but it doesn't do anything. I've followed the instructions for it and I just get the COM41 port saying "READY!!" and stays there.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, he's been out of a phone for two weeks now.
Edit: This is the error on TWRP. "E:Unknown File System: 'datamedia'"
Edit: Fixed. I didn't set the phone to COM41 in device manager. Oops.

Hello Everyone,
I've been looking around and can't seem to find any guide I can get to work.
A couple months ago, I rooted my LG G2 and installed Cyanogen mod successfully. After a couple days, for some reason I restored to a backup I made back before I installed Cyan, so it was just on the Stock OS. A couple days later my phone tried to update itself and it bricked it. I was an idiot and wiped everything for some reason so theres nothing on there but the LG logo and then it goes to TWRP.
So now I'm not quite sure what to do. I can adb push and sideload just fine, but I've tried pushing a zip with the stock OS and installing it but everytime it just says it failed. Ive also pushed cyan on again and it says successfully installed and then just goes back to TWRP again. Can anyone help me with what to do from here? Do I need a certain tool to re install the OS? Will pushing it and then installing it with TWRP not work?
thanks!
Reflash lg g2 stock rom .

How would I go about flashing the stock rom?
Ive been trying to use this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
But every time I try to use the "Automatic offline procedure" I get an error saying permission denied. I made sure the drivers and everything were installed
Any ideas?
Right click - Run as administrator.
Or do it manually
https, window enabler..etc.
Alright, so I was able to do it manually, but in the instructions it says to enable usb debugging. Just to clarify my phone is basically stuck in TWRP, so will this even work?
My comp doesnt even recognize my phone as an LG G2 it says something like ADB galaxy nexus.

That's ok.
Open cmd line where your adb is. Put some rom inside.
Let's say the rom is : mycoolrom.zip
adb push mycoolrom.zip /sdcard/mycoolrom.zip
then flash it.

I did this, but like I said in the original post when I try to flash it, it just says failed every time. Ive tried files from all over and they all fail. Could you point me in the right direction of one that might work?
Thanks
You didn't mention download mode.
Try powering off the device, hold volume up and connect to pc ?
Is the download mode at least working ?

Nope, no matter what I do it just goes to TWRP
And just to be clear it pushes over fine, and the zip is on the phone, its just when I try to flash it on TWRP it says failed. the last error code just said unable to open Zip
Hi,
yesterday I got d802 phone to fix it. First the phone was stuck at LG screen with certification error which I fixed. Phone was recognized by PC and i installed twrp on phone. I tried everything (i guess) and now phone is stuck at LG screen and it doesnt move. Now i cannot go back to twrp recovery but i can get to download mode but phone isn't recognized by pc so i cannot flash kdz file to phone. I'm really stuck at this point. Is this real hard brick or is there any way to fix it? Any ideas what should i do or something i can try?
I tried to plug phone in other computers and it's the same thing. My laptop recognized that something is plugged in once but it didn't know what was it so by now. Somehow from time to time phone doesn't go to download mode but it goes in hardware key control mode.
Hope someone can help...
So far i manged to get to recovery mode but adb sideload isn't working. I tried to wipe everything and that didn't help. As we speak factory reset is in progress but I think it's stuck on formatting cache. I hope I'll be able to get the phone recognized in download mode. Any suggestions are appreciated
I have made some progress. ADB is working now and i pushed cyanogenmod and on installation it says that it cannot mount data and cache. I think that main problem is that phone isn't rooted and now I'm trying to root phone via adb. If someone knows anyway to do this that would be great
My phone was really slow and it was lolipop. When i try to open same apps it stucked. Then i decided to install cm 12.1. I did it before. My phone was rooted and installed TWRP. But idk why i couldn't open the TWRP then i tryed to flash TWRP again. Boom i restart my phone in to recovery and now i can not open it. It is just a black screen, no logo, no download mod and when i plug my phone to pc. Pc gives error that wants me to format partitions.
Pls help. i am using D802TR LG g2
Hi, you've a SECURITY ERROR, it happened also to me, so don't worry. Maybe you've flashed something not fully compatible with your bootstack, or flashing procedure gave a error. Anyway, try to follow these steps:

Hi,
I'm opening a thread because I just couldn't find any way to unbrick my device. In the past I used the FlashTool2014 to go back to the stock LP KDZ for my device.
I was in the stock rom when I decided to mess with the build.prop and then went back to the stock backup. When I restarted the phone it showed the LG logo, screen went black and never booted android. I could access the stock recovery but the Factory Reset won't work.
Then I decided to go to download mode, it connects and the PC detects it as an MTP device. I open the FlashTool2014 and it detects the device OK. When the LGUserCSTool opens it says the Upgrade stopped due to an error and the device stays on 0% and shows USER B70 in the console. I can press Retry, turn off the phone and reconnect in Download mode but the LGCSTool just wont push the firmware.
I suspected I had a driver issue so I tried using a clean win8 install I have for this purposes without success. I cant flash with the TOT method since the other LG Flash Tool wont detect the device in download mode when connected to the pc. This is really weird.
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Solved with another tot file (almost lost all hope), took me 20+ hours to download it, I'll better make a backup of this files on the cloud. Still having problems with STOCK firmwares but could install TWRP and get CM13 which doesn't give any problems.

I have a rooted RP2 MR1 on android9. I tried to unroot the device since I am trying to sell the phone. I went into magastik and clicked Complete Uninstall. After the phone restarted it booted into Recovery Mode. I cannot get past this. I can go into the Bootloader from Recovery Mode. I have tried ADB but my phone isn't be recognized.
Not sure what I am doing wrong, or if this can be fixed. Any help is appreciated!

To get my phone to be recognized, I had to try two different cables, as well as follow this video to install the standard adb drivers.
New user so I can't post the full link, so add this after the .com/ of youtube
watch?v=1TxjSa8gemM
From there look up the stock ROMs installer for the RP2 and follow the instructions for that.
I just ran into the same problem. I uninstalled through magisk then rebooted. now i can get to recovery and bootloader but phone wont boot. I tried reinstalling factory image from razer's website but adb gets stuck at waiting for device. I have used 6 differnt drivers and 5 different cables including a samsung sync and transfer cable i went out and bought today hoping the cable was the issue. any update on how you fixed it or advice from anyone else would be greatly appreciated as this is my only phone.

Are you using the ADB/Fastboot that Razer recommends on their site? I had this problem too until I updated my ADB/Fastboot.
Yeah, I feel like an idiot. It's been a while since I've used adb. I ended up moving the fastboot file into the same folder as the the image I was trying to flash and had my phone working 30 minutes later. I meant to reply but it was 6 am and I went to sleep. Lol
