Hey guys, i dont know if its bricked or not, but i have download mode and recovery, i am on stock, but ... my modem is unknown, and after several kdz upgrade stills so .. could it be that my partitions are wrong? i rooted and changed recovery, and my recovery is not properly functional ... sometimes looking via explorer I see the "0" folders but should they dont be removed by turning back to stock via lg support tool?
Thanks for help!

@vyrus973 dont use lg flashtool now, read the go back to stock guide and flash your phone with .tot or kdz again, root the phone, install recovery and if your modem is still unknownnyou flash it from this forum.

flashed with kdz to 4.2.2, rooted, flashed recovery, flashed baseband, still buggy ... now i did the same and toggled the ROOTED status from download mode and i upgrade to the latest, so maybe I can say to LG centre that after ota bricked, its in warranty, or should i do something else?

@vyrus973 so whats now buggy then? The 0 folder is actually not a big deal, I had it also from custom roms. Is the modem still unknown? Could your efs partition maybe bad?
If its really an hardware issue non fixable then I would send it to LG if its not your fault. But if its an easy to fix software issue then I would try to fix it myself.
Could you explain more about your issue.

i just played on my efs backup 1 week ago, but did anything, is there any other method to fix it?
the bug is that he dont start the service, he does not even try to read my sim card, still no connection, and he self restarts like a loop, so i cant even use it really long time, sometimes he gets connection but even than with really bad signal, when i put on fly mode and return back he does not connect more, even the data connectivity than does not work, since i flashed the optimus v3 rom, i tried each kdz for my phone but no one did really fix it, sometimes at the first runtime it function and than after restart still buggy aaaaa its make me crazy, actually i am using a 6inches big china phone and that cant be a permanent solution.
greets
@vyrus973 so you still have the backup? If so then you can try to restore it. You can also google about g2 efs recovery to restore it but I am not sure if it is possible. I think that your efs partition is corrupted or got removed.

i restored it many times, i backuped it on 4.2.2 and on 4.4.2 but anyone does properly function, i went in the assistent center and they are going to sent it to labor, at the end i restored all, i hope that they cant see that i played with the root/bootloader, in download mode is written UNROOTED, hopes thats all ahah, in 7 days I update
greets
@vyrus973 ahh okay, if you flashed back to stock and removed root temper flag then you should be okay. If you live in europe then it didnt matter that you had rooted your phone I thought. But your download mode said unrooted so the temper flag got resetted.
Goodluck with your phone and have fun with it, dont brick it

guys I changed my dpi with this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texdroider.texdroider_dpi&hl=en
textdroider dpi now i am in a boot loop
my phone is rooted but i dont have any custom recovery installed on it.
I took a backup on my sdcard of that build.prop and i guess the app gets one also but is there a way I can change the faulty one?
As I said I only had stock recovery is it possible to adb with that? Or is my only chance is to flash stock rom again
as it is described on this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
if so which rom should I download I live in Australia and got and Australian stock phone. Should I download d802 Asia?
Thanks for all the help I would really appreciate if I can save it without losing my data but if thats the only way what can I do.
I hope you have a custom ROM or the ROM you have already flashed. Just make a flashable zip with the build.prop placed in /system/ .
flash it through recovery and you are back again..
Or just flash your Rom again. Should fix the issue

so i am pretty sure I am downloading the right rom right now because the software pickup the same name.
So am I right about flashing my phone by following the steps on the topic I mentioned in my first post?
Is this what you mean by flashing trought recovery because that dude says download mode.
BTW I cant flash trought lg's utility I dont know if its related or not but windows cant install CDC driver.
Also when I flash the rom am I going to lose my data.
Thanks for your answers guys really appericate it.
Just adb the build.prop...
No, download mode it's a form of diagnostic mode, recovery doesn't matter.
You will lose everything. Read and learn, test and perform, only you can make yourself not a noob.

How can I adb the build.prop ?
I can only go into LG G2 Stock recovery mode and download mode. There is no custom recovery installed so I cant open debugging and adb doesnt recognize the device.
Am i doing something wrong? and believe me I have been reading for hours
I can't explain it much further, your gonna have to search forums. There was a recent thread on this with koushs driver and some lines to force recognize. I don't remember were or what.

I bootlooped changing my dpi as well. I was stock rooted with no custom recovery. I followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471370&highlight=unbrick and was able to get my phone to work again. FYI, it may install the latest firmware for your phone, even if it's not OTA yet, and ioroot might not support it yet if it does. I have a d801 and it installed the latest firmware, although it wasn't OTA yet. Hope this helps.

Ahh mate it would probably helped because my support tool couldnt recognize my device as d802 but instead l02e or l20e sth like that with united driver but I reckon those are the drivers I was looking for unfortunately I dont have the phone anymore.
I turned the phone back to the warranty today not giving any explanation to try my luck. they may just do this same procedure and just flash stock rom on the service and send it back to me or they might just say this is rooted its out of warranty either case I will let them deal with it if they say this is out of warranty I will ask them to fix it and I am willing to pay if they quote me something reasonable if they dont I will try this.
Thank you very much for your answer.

Guys I just wanted to give you update on the matter. Today I called the repair centre and they told me they have fixed the phone and send it back yesterday so I should be able to get it in couple of days maybe this friday or next week monday something like that. They didnt say anything about root or warranty or stuff like that. When I get the phone back what can I do prevent this from happening again? Do I need to flash a custom recovery on the phone? What is the risk of doing that? Or should I just root the phone and not mess with the system files ever again
Thanks heaps for all your inputs.
Got the phone today they changed the motherboard. I am not sure if it is a good thing or a bad thing :/ On the good side it is fixed for good on the flipside the phone has been opened now so thats not so good. I have checked the body coudlnt find too many stracthes or sth like that they did a clean job but still.
Anyway that was the last update.
Ok long story short I flashed something on my ls980 I believe my efs. Got wiped. I have no iemi. Unknown baseband. No service whats hoever I have tried LG flash tool and my stock tot no luck cback stock no root my phone restats every minute or so I can't find my efs backup. From io rootf. Can any body help I've got qpst. But don't know what to do. Please help
Rite now I'm on zv8. I had it on the t mobile Tom for straight talk
Also I can only get charge only and dowliad mode to respond USB please someone help
Sorry to break to you, but I don't think there's a solution at this point. I was in the same situation last month and there wasn't a solution through xda. I tried, believe me.
Try your best to wipe your phone and remove root status, and then claim LG warranty. The warranty was rejected the first time (as well as unprofessional not-returning-calls to anybody or picking up the phone), but I posted on their Facebook page and got the "executive" team to contact me. Under a week later, I was sent a new/refurbished phone, box and all.
Most stories of LG warranty are terrible though, so best of luck to you. I dealt with LG Canada.
Can you get into recovery at all? I take it you don't have a Nandroid backup? What rom were you trying to flash?

See if there's anything helpful in here...
yeah, well, go back to exact situation you made the backup(romversion on phone/etc), then restore it with the tool version you made backup with. it will require you to probably have the efs backup in the location its backed up to. my tip would be to always back it up manually somewhere else as well as remember where you put it.
but if you cant find it you did a lousy backupjob right? How is that warrantee claimable.... ?seems user error to me
I understand that u are a senior men but apparently u don't read my backup is gone I've posted that 3 or 4 times now and I know it not claimable

sorry. then there is not much you can do. There is probably a special way thats not allowed to talk about here. google about recovering imei without backup and lg g2
So I'm really into Android developing, I'm always flashing and installing etc, but I got a problem now.
Phone information
LG G2 D802
Rooted
TWRP Recovery 2.7.0.0
Was running 4.4.2, found a kdz file on the internet and flashed it (no regular update from my phone)
What happenedI actually did something stupid, I received an application update from the LG Download Center (or whatever it's called) on my phone and clicked on it. I was planning on flashing Android 4.4.2 again because my firmware was not stable, and I thought this update could help me.
But no, after it finished downloading, I automatically booted into recovery.
What I didSo I tried to reboot and enter my OS, but unfortunately, I was stuck in recovery.
I did everything I could, wiping (Dalvik) cache, factory reset, flashed a new rom, restored Nandroid backup, but no, every time I booted, I got back into recovery again.
I only saw 1 option left, booting into download mode and flashing a new firmware.
I found the Netherlands 16GB kdz file for Android 4.4.2 (because I had a French one first), the one I was looking for.
Looked all over the internet, and all guides pointed me to this guide.
Tried it, but I got multiple errors, one of them was that my phone was not connected while I was at 15% of the flash process.
What happenedAfter that first flashing process, I booted up, but got a Security Error. After the Security Error was showing for 5 seconds, my phone shut down. This is happening every time I try to boot up.
I couldn't access my recovery anymore, nothing. Edit: I can access my recovery right now, and I tried this, but when I boot up I get the Security Error again.
The big problem right now is the Security Error! How do I bypass that?
So can someone please help me out!
Several phones/tablets of mine bricked and I always found a way to get out of it, but not this time, unfortunately...

Yes, I actually have. Didn't mention it, but after I did that I booted and got an LG logo and below it was a text that said 'Security Error' After like 5 seconds the security error goes away and my phone shuts down. I can only enter download mode right now.
I'll edit my first post with this info.
Thanks for the help though!
Edit: I find a way to access my recovery again because at first I couldn't but I figured out that the code in the thread you linked was a bit different than the code I entered at first.
So I used the code you gave me, but now I get the Security Error again!
Hi mate, just like you i downloaded that damn OTA today and messed up my phone, but in my case was because i had totally forgotten it was rooted and had custom recovery installed :silly::silly::silly::silly:
I followed this tutorial to fix the boot secure error http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 and it worked like a charm except for download mode wasn't working at all.
After doing some research i found this post http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...ricked-lg-g2-stuck-twrp-no-download-mode.html and got download mode (apparently) working again but Windows didn't recognize it at all so i couldn't use it to flash the .kdz stock firmware.
In the end i just flashed a custom aosp rom and got my phone back to life but the download mode issue it's still there and it's bothering me quite a lot.
Any suggestion is welcome.
EDIT: Don't download the recovery from the post, instead look for the latest version (2.7.0.0) because the one posted there (2.6.3.2) might corrupt your partitions

Nope internal SD remains intact, basically what you'll be doing is pushing the right files into the system partitions and yes, in theory you should be able to flash a new rom.
Even if you can boot into recovery you should do it if you're getting that error, and after that you can just push a ROM file to flash (i'll assume you know how to do it) and btw let me know if you decide to flash a stock based rom instead of an aosp like i did.
Good luck with that :good:

Perhaps you might consider sending it in to lg if you still have warranty. But I'd you don't, there are services on eBay/ Craigslist that can help you.

I have LG G2 D802 32GB. When I bought it, there was Android 4.4.2 KitKat installed.
Then I rooted it using ioroot25 and installed custom recovery using AutoRec.
I flashed CloudyG3 v1.2 rom by @Cloudyfa using TWRP.
It was working really good except the VOIP calls, thus I wanted to revert back to stock.
I found this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
I tried to flash it using some Europe Open KDZ from this page: http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda%2FLG+G2%2FStock%2F
The flashing started and stucked at I think 4%. I rebooted the phone and it appeared as qhsusb_dload.
I can't remember if I clicked on Normal or CFE flash. But I think it was normal.
I tried to unbrick it with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142
After that I got only LG logo and no recovery, no fastboot, no download mode, no qhsusb_dload mode, no nothing.
Now I got board replacement. The board have rooted Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean installed.
As I want to have CloudyG3 installed. I tried to do that by installing custom recovery and then flashing the CloudyG3 rom and KitKat baseband. But I think I have a battery drain issue, as Cludyfa already said. I also tried with flashing the Cust and Persist partitions from the KitKat KDZ, but my battery didn't got any better.
The question is, why I bricked my phone with LG flash tool? What should I do to make sure that this won't happen again?
I made backup of entire phone nand (mmcblk0). Should I DD it if I get the bulk mode (qhsusb_dload) again?
Thank you in advance for your answers.
@mss1988 if the phone is stuck at 4% just let it still for some time cause the program could might be bugged or some other error, just leave the phone on dont restart it cause the phone has first removed the stuff and didnt copied the bootloader etc yet.
If you get qhsusb_dload mode then I suggest to use the unbrick guide and also Pick the right files for your phone. You can DD your backup to your phone but using the unbrick guide seems safer to me.
Also check when you can use that qhsusb dload that all files are copied good.
Tip to prevent brick after root and custom recovery: Flash an stock rom through recovery or an stock rom which got modified under the hood.

i think the only way is if somehow i can force to install through the unresponsive download mode which was working before i rooted the phone with ioroot. or somehow access the phones partitions via linux even though it shows lge composite device

Good to know a bit more info on the case. So the computer is not recognizing the phone as an adb device at all?.. (I've never used Linux OS when modding my phone so my knowledge in that department is limited and I hope someone else will be able to help you there.) .. Else I would see if a windows computer would recognize the phone as an adb device.

Sorry for not being able to help you... but i suggest you to keep all your problems in 1 thread instead of createting several threads for your issue. It gets confusing to follow all your threads and most likely harder to help you as you haven't gathered all information and status on your proceedings in one and same place.
I'm crossing my fingers hoping that someone will be able to help you or that you'll find a solution. As for your screen being cracked makes it hard to operate. Do you have a bluetooth mouse? or an otg cable where you can connect a mouse? that way you'll be able to access the whole screen.

just an idea but not sure if it will work. can you use some voice control app to make it dial the numbers you want.. like google now? "Call...".. if you understand what i mean... It's hard, unless you install a rom that allows you to rotate the screen uppside down which is also an option. I remember i cracked my nexus 4 screen. I had it running slimkat rom and could rotate the screen uppside down. But not sure you'll be able to access the hidden menu on custom rom though(?).. Do you have any efs backup anywhere?

reverting to complete stock has in many cases helped retrive imei but there is not guarantee. what you could try is to make a backup of your current rom, so that you have the old and a new back up and then restore the old and see if it worked. if not go back to the new. I guess the best would be to try to go back to complete stock.

actually i have already done that. i used the tot method to install the jb 4.2.2 when i could access the download mode only.
i was thinking what if someone makes a backup of their efs partition then i use it to restore to mine. i know i wont have my imei number but at least my phone will be working

Ah ok. Had you used ioroot, it would have takes a backup of your efs partition. Well we do not promote people to use each other's efs backups as it's illegal.
