Hello guys, i got a big problem with my lg g2.
When I turn it on, it gets stuck at the Lg Logo and nothing happens from there.
I tried going to download mode and flashing a stock rom but to no avail.
I tried this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
but when the phone actually restarts at the end of the process, it gets stuck at the logo again and the light keeps on flashing.
I also tried the TOT method to flash the mobile to stock rom but i always get "LAF retrieveGPT() failed"
Every time i switch the mobile on, it stays at the lg logo
Does anyone knows what i should do now?
Thanks in advance for any help given.
Have you try to hard reset after kdz flash?
Did the hard reset but when the phone starts, it gets stuck at the logo screen again.
I just tried to flash again with another TOT and it actually worked until the phone restarts by itself and gets stuck at the logo again.
That is, on the flash tool it shows that the phone is restarting to complete the installation but the phone just gets stuck at the logo and then after a few seconds the flash tool shows that the process has failed.
Any suggestions?
I'm having the exact same problem:
When I turn the phone on, it is stuck on the LG screen
I cannot enter recovery mode (holding power + volume down...)
I cannot enter download mode - it shows fastboot screen instead
I'm completely lost as what to do??? I think I've just wasted a phone
I can't do any of the fixes that I can find because I'm not able to enter download mode, the LGMobile Support Tool wont recognize my phone etc
Hello mate, there's an easy fix to be able to get download mode.
Download this and extract it in your local disk ( C:\boot )
((seems like i can't post links before 10 posts))
Go on google and download fastboot to your pc and find a laf.img for your phone varient
Then open cmd and type:
cd C:\boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase laf
fastboot flash laf laf.img
fastboot reboot
That will fix your download mode immediately.
But I do not know any further. Once you get access to download mode, try flashing the kdz or even TOT files and let me know if you are able to pass the logo screen.
Cheers

Sorry, I don't know what you're saying. If you can somehow direct me to the link that would be great! :good:
if you give me the name of another thread, I should be able to search for it
I finally found it lol.

Just follow the steps but you need to find the laf.img for your phone varient. The laf in the link is not for D802.

that worked! I'm now using the LGMobile support tool to try and reinstall the original firmware - I will let you know how it goes once that's complete
EDIT: It said that software install was complete, but I'm still stuck on the LG Boot screen
EDIT 2: just tried the steps from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 - it now loads the LG boot screen, then and android guy (with hexagonal shape?) and blue bar underneath, and then back to the LG Boot screen
IM GOING CRAZY HERE!!! what am I supposed to do to fix this
Yeah, i'm stuck just like you.
Just sent it for repairs at a local shop because I also was going nuts over this.
If it becomes alright, I'll ask the guy to explain what he did and I'll write it here in a few days.
Patience my brother.

Thanks :good: I have already done this (as you can see above), however I cannot complete the last step which is flashing the new firmware. I'm still left with the LG logo after doing this
Any updates?
Well guys, its been a long time since I'm having this problem and I didn't find any solution.
Anyone knows how i can fix this?
Or any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

I recently got an lg g2 and rooted it, but it would never boot into recovery mode correctly. Well one night i was trying different chargers because it kept saying it was charging and would vibrate and say it was charging again, i woke up and the screen was lit but wasnt booting. I tried to restart it, no affect, tried to recover it, when it does this it goes into the blank screen again and does nothing, it also wont go into download mode. when plugging into the computer around 15 drives pop up and say they need formatting and it says that is is some qual disk drive and wont install any drivers. tried adb and the phone isnt recognized. am I SOL? What else can i try. One disk drive mounts and has a folder named image.
Short version
-wont boot
-no download mode
-recovery does nothing
-computer does not recognize as phone
-comes up with 15 disk drives that needs to be formatted
-one has a folder named image with stuff in it
-adb wont recognize phone
-tried the lg recovery tool and b/c no download mode it will not read the phone (tried to force install the drivers of the phone to see if it would work to no prevail)
Help :crying:
well today i got it to go into twrp recovery mode and can use adb with it again.
-will not boot
-can get into twrp now
-says when booting
fastboot mode started

anything i can do to push a stock rom or to get it to go into download mode, ive been reading threads upon threads and just need some advice or anything now, ive tried almost everything and im exuasted.

Why not just go back to STOCK?
-for download mode, dont try to BOOT into download mode. Use the method of holding VOL UP while plugging in USB when the Flashtools are ready to go with the TOT and DLL files.

Did this already, didn't repair it, said device does not have enough space during the last step. it allowed it to go into download mode for a second, but will not stay in it.
Solved my problem, will post a guide for others this weekend with the same issue.

Don't know if it's of any help but check out my post on fixing a hard bricked g2 had a similar problem an was able to get it fxed
I installed autorec recovery.as soon as i booted I realized the presence of white lines which have never gone.I cant flash any zip file such as the JDI kernal.It cannot enter into download mode even after erasing recovery, laf, aboot, boot and flashing back stock aboot, boot and laf.I cannot see the LGE port so I cannot tot it back neither does kdz flashing work since it cannot go into download mode.Adb doesn't show up.
What I got is only fastboot + white lines (they only cleared up once by luck so I could see fastboot mode on the phone) .
Please help me Un-Brick it ASAP.look at the questions below.
Thanks
-Should I re-flash all 12 partitions via fastboot (use twrp as recovery).
-It is written d802 on the cover but could the motherboard be different inside?
-Supposing I was to flash 16 GB to a 32 GB phone or vise versa would it affect anything.
-What are my options at this stage and what is the best method to approach this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/mega-tut-how-to-fix-bricked-lg-g2-t3055033
Would This Guide Work? I have seen in other guides where they warn about replacing the original recovery but rather suggest you use twrp.
-I think this is a refurbished device.
UPDATE
ok So I managed to fix the white lines and they have completely disappeared which is a plus point.I can finally see download mode for a second before it disappears.I can also go to factory reset mode after holding vol down and power but I have not reset it yet.
Any fix for 1 second download mode?Once I get to download mode i can tot back.
if you have custom recovery try different kernels, wipe, flash bootloader you must be on download mode to revert to stock.
at this point if you cant use the download mode at all, you must try riffbox(search on google)

Holy Mother Of.......The RIFFBOX is crazy....i do XBOX 360 modding and i know the difficulty..hehe.....Actually I see download mode for a second and it disappears........which custom recovery can i flash via fastboot, philz or twrp and which ones are the right ones to download.....i am already pissed off at autorec.i feel I am getting close after I cleared up white lines now only fastboot stands in the way.I know many people who mess up and enter bulk mode at this stage and I wanna avoid.I also cant find the right kdz file for my LG cause the imei is a spoofed one that is invalid in the first place so i am hoping for a miracle at this stage.Thanks for the help.......what do you think I can do apart from riffbox?

Just try everything you see on xda. I never faced a 1 sec download mode before and believe me i bricked(hard/soft and beyond) many times and came back, it aint die. Once download mode is broke there must something really not working. In other saying you need to revert to stock. Also, if you dont have custom recovery i also dont believe you can flash a custom recovery, you could try adb push laf.img recovery.img aboot.img etc. But its going be hard bricked.
Man i was thinking i faced every difficulty with d802 but you proved me wrong :laugh:
I pushed the three files that's when the white lines cleared up and download mode came for a second....there is a similar case on Android forums where they download mode comes for a second. The worst part is the IMEI was patched to a very u usual IMEI on the back cover, it's not even an LG imei so i can't find the write kdz file to extract partitions from....I have to rely on trial and error......at this stage I don't wanna enter qhsusb mode aka hard brick...... I just have to revive download mode.......actually when I attempt to boot laf. IMG I get a dtb error ?any thing I can try
So I just wanna confirm this. if i flash any custom recovery say cwm (of course for lg g2 d802) via fastboot mode using the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img will it actually install the recovery or what.and then to enter recovery i have to essentially hard reset (vol down + power ) so as to enter recovery.now if there is no recovery it will hard reset and i will enter qhsusb mode which i dont want.So does flashing a recovery image via fastboot install the recovery or what.Please assist.

How were you able to fix the white lines issue @sohailsameja?
So I wiped the system partition on my LG G2/D800 (mostly out of stupidity) and now I'm stuck in the boot loop.
Symptoms are following:
1. Stuck in the boot loop
2. Will not go into download or recovery mode
3. When turning on the LG logo appears and disappears repeatedly
4. Device is not detected when plugged into the USB
5. Factory reset using VolDown+Power doesn't do anything
I've tried most of the ideas I've been able to find on the forum, but it looks like I'm stuck mostly because I cannot enter download mode and the phone is not detected in any way when plugged into the USB (no many partitions or anything).
Will be grateful for any ideas how to get out of it?

so vol up and then plug usb, does not take you to download mode?
if not try using srk tools.. if that doesnt work i think you need to short circuit your motherboard.

Indeed I cannot enter download mode with vol up then plug usb.
Good news is that I was able to enter qhsusb mode by short circuiting the moterboard. I used srktools to unbrick in qhsusb mode, however it didn't work. The linked guide recommends to flash only laf.img, aboot.img and boot.img. I don't really understand how flashing more can hurt. I also don't completely understand why flashing these should help. After all, I messed only with the system partition. I'll try to follow the guide more closely, but I'm thinking that a better idea would be to flash system partition in a qhsusb mode. I just need to figure out where to get system.img from.

So now I can consistently get into ghsusb mode by short curcuiting the motherboard, and I can flash img files with dd. I flashed every partition from the stock FW which was on my phone. Now when hold vol up and plug in usb, I'm ending up in a stock recovery. However, I still cannot enter download mode and the phone still suffers from boot loop if I choose to reboot the phone.

Hello!
On my LG Leon 4G LTE H340n there is a problem with booting, it stuckts at LG booting logo. When I try to put it in download mode (volume up and connect usb) it displays security booting error and then black screen showing only.
So I can't get it into download mode, can't boot it, and I tried putting it in fastboot (with volume down and connect usb), but that fastboot mode doesn't really work it gives failed command not found on every command.
So how is it possible to reflash the stock recovery (to allow download mode) and then the ROM?
I already have the needed .img files (laf.img, recovery.img, etc..)
I read on other threads that it is possible to write those img files to the correct partition but you need to short testpoint. So how to do this on this phone?
Thanks in advance!
To me the time that I came out this error was installing a Custom Recovery and could not fix it I had to send it to sat and I made a change of motherboard do not know if there will be someone alla able to fix it but I think since you can not access the fastboot or the dowloads mode. Sorry for my English but this translated with google translator
I never need to enter into download mode in my lgms345 to flash a kdz file and all occurred fine!
Lg flash tool put the phone automatically into download mode but your phone need to. Stay connected to your PC
Does anyone have a V20 KDZ file I can use to fix my phone all I can get it in is download mode and that's about it? If I try to get into the boot loader it goes straight into the screen with the red triangle. If possible there's any methods of fixing it through fastboot please tell me.
Ok somehow I managed to bring it back by doing some witchcraft in the fastboot. Sorry about this now unnecessary post.
