[Q] Wipe data and restore stock ROM with adb - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, hope somebody can help me.
I've cracked my LG G2 screen and now the touchscreen is nearly completely destroyed, I can use only the bottom left corner a little bit. I want to sell it now, but I need to wipe all my user data first and restore the stock ROM, which is a problem because I have TWRP installed and as you know you can only use it with touch. I can't install CWM either because you need to deactivate and activate Debugging for it to work. I can't use OSP either
All other functions work only only the touchscreen is broken. I have rooted the phone and adb works, but the bootloader isn't unlocked because of the security hole in 4.2.2, I used it to root my phone
Please help me

Borked my phone, badly need help

This is almost embarrassing to post, but I need some help...
I have the T-Mobile G2, btw, which was rooted and with TWRP 2.6.3.3
So I was installing an AOSP ROM, and like a dumbass, instead of installing gapps like I meant to do, I accidentally flashed Smikey's KitKat ROM on top of Cyanfox. I realized it too late to stop it, and once the flash finished, I did a wipe of everything but internal storage and tried to restore a backup of CloudyStock. When I rebooted it goes to the LG screen with a secure boot error, and then a black screen where you can still see the backlight if you tilt the phone.
I tried using the LG Mobile Support tool to go back to stock, (It will go into download mode), but I can't get it to push any of the three stock images to the phone.
Holding down and power to do a hardware reset doesn't work either.
Help!!!
I picked up a cheap Tmobile prepaid to use until I get this figured out, but I want my G2 back! Does anyone have any advice at all, or did I brick my phone beyond repair?
I forgot to mention, I'm not sure if it's the phone or the drivers aren't properly installed on my computer, but LG Mobile support tool is reading my phone as a V500...

Anyone know if this method for unbricking the Optimus G will work?

JB buttons stuck on KK

So i got my g2 to get somehow the JB buttons back (im using cloudyG3 btw)
Did this with G2 Xposed.
But i could not edit the menu and back keys position, so i unistalled it. But buttons are still same and kitkat aint back... and app crashes when going into frontal buttons on settings...
So far tried to replace them again in the way i want, but gravitybox isnt doing anything either...
i want back button on the right and menu button on the left...( Samsung way)
Any help on fixing this buttons would be highly apreciated, as having them reverse is terribly annoying.
If anyone need any more details on my phone, please ask.

PD: Got nandroid backup, tried restoring only system (dont wanna go 1 week back in stufd) but no results.
Hello. I sort of had this issue yesterday, and the reason why it happened for me, was that my phone didn't wipe EVERYTHING as it was supposed to do when I wiped data+system+cache+dalvik, it just counted CloudyG3 as an "upgrade". That unfortunately means that your CloudyG3 was dirty flashed and that's why it doesn't work.
What I would recommend you to do is to backup all your apps only, and return to stock. then towelroot+autorec and start all over again.
I did something else, but I wouldn't recommend it since my phone stuck at bootlogo and kept turning itself on. I formatted Data in TWRP (which means internal storage too, don't do this unless you REALLY can't get out), and tried pushing a ROM through ADB (which didn't work because my adb wasn't properly installed), but then restored to stock through download mode.

[Q] VS980 Boot Loop

Had not rooted this device before, I installed autorec.
Rebooted and flashed:
xdabbeb_vs98025b_bootstack.zip
Wiped everything (including internal storage :/) then rebooted back into recovery to install:
xdabbeb_vs98025b_lg_apps.zip
TWRP recovery works, Download mode "seemingly works" but LG flash tool never finds the port the device is on and I dont see a spot to change the COM in device manager, Sideload & push work just fine to put roms on the device.......but no matter what I flash it will not get past the LG logo, is there a bootloader issue?
everything pushed or sideloaded, transfers fine to the device and installations are successfull...but I never get past the LG screen
what are my options, somehow use the LG flash tool to go back to the default verizon install file and get user data back?
I have to go to a party but hopefully I can figure this out. I apologize if this has been solved many of times, but I dont seem to find an answer that works....
i got the same problem as of yesterday too.however i was rooted and i accidentally pressed the over the air update install button im stumped on what to do, because i dont want to wipe the internal storage.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I simply followed the install instructions and put 2.0.0/25a on on the phone instead...works....

D802 touchscreen way off

I bought an Lg G2 d802 from aliexpress, the phone came rooted and with Philz touch installed.
A few days ago i decided to install a custom Rom (liquidsmooth but i don't think it's relevant), after i did the steps to install the custom rom when i rebooted the phone , on the screen appeard that error (690) fastboot has started.
I couldn't do anything so i decided to restore stock firmware, i thought the first version i installed wasn't the right one because the touchscreen was not working properly so i tried different one but still the same behavior.
Everything else on the phone seems to work but i can't write. I can't select anything the normal way , but i found a pattern to do things.
Basically when i place my finger on o part of the screen it actually senses the touch on another part of the screen.
Any thoughts on how this can be fixed ?

[Q] Wiped phone won't boot past LG Screen - Please Help!

I'm really stuck and I hope someone out there might be able to help me out (or at least stimulate my brain to try and figure out what I did!)
I was looking to return my G2 back to T-Mobile (D801). Since i rooted it and installed a custom recovery, I know I needed to wipe it and return the phone back to stock. On my first pass of performing a factory reset, the phone will no longer boot past the LG screen. I didn't have a back up on the phone since I hadn't prepared for that step at the moment I was clearing the data from it (stupid of me, I know).
I've tried to sideload a rom through ADB just to get it to boot, but none of the ADB commands seem to be recognized. I don't even care about getting the phone back into working condition, I just need the phone to go back to stock recovery so it doesn't show as rooted (so T-Mobile will accept it).
Does anyone has any suggestions on how to accomplish this? I really need to figure something out since the clock is ticking to return it before I get penalized. Any help is welcome and appreciated!
Thanks.
