I have optimus G pro 2 build, no recovery mode, the touch screen is off so it's difficult for me to maneuver around the phone, I can get it into USB debugging mode, I'm not sure if the factory reset remove the root or not. when I hold all three buttons volume up volume down and power key it goes into this mode asking me if I want to use the volume keys to answer the phone. as I think of the rest of the problems I will post them. thanks in advance

Ok so I was able to get back into download mode, I tried to flash back to stock and this is what I keep getting

Not sure but try this http://www.lg-phones.org/how-to-flash-unbrick-lg-g2-back-to-stock.html
What is your g2 model number
If your g2 is ls980 and lg flash tool think it is d802 try flash with d802 tot file first
note . You must use dll from kdz firmware
Extract dll from kdz using kdz extractor
Dll name must name as LGUP_XXXX
Flash with d802 tot
After you g2 will force to fastboot mode
That fastboot we need
If u are on fastboot
eras your recovery and flash your original laf.img using fastboot (You can find this tut by google suck as lg g2 fastboot)
that will make your download mode came back and now u can flash with your ls980 tot firmware without error

Did you have a custom recovery installed (like TWRP)?

I've never tried that with ls980, but I've done it with my vs980 a bunch of times. Should work the same for ls980.

ok thanks for the reply. I just got my g2 2 days ago wasn't paying attention and pulled a dummy move and formatted data instead of formatting system and erased everything off the phone. erased my nandroid, efs, etc. I still have twrp but since my efs partions are gone my thinking was I should just go back to stock. I could side load but I really wanted to figure this out so if I ever have a warrenty issue I will know how to get the phone back to out of box stock. I got the phone brand new with LS980ZVA on it. any suggestions? should I side load? what about efs? also I don't mean to hijack this thread. thanks for any help in advance

I've done the exact same thing that you did and I found it was easier to revert back to stock but I guess it depends on how familar you are with the process of doing so. It's definately worth learning as well. Plenty of good forums on how to do it.

ok I appreciate the advice, but all I can find is a LS980ZV7.tot. not a LS980ZV8.tot or a LS980ZVA.tot. ive been researching this literally for hours and hours now. my brain hurts. what I really want to know is if I do the LS980ZV7.tot, go that route, will I be able to get back to LS980ZVA (latest update) thru OTA update? also how do I know the .tot file I have is the 32g and not the 16g? that's making me nervous. ive read where quite a few people have done this and thought they were using the 32g version or whatever and they flashed and then their phone was only 16g and lost the 16g of storage. idk man. im coming from a lg optimus g and the development over there on that phone and procedures and all of that is way more easier to understand and cut and dry. over here on the sprint g2 as far as trying to find clear answers, its just not as easy I guess. maybe im not looking in the right places.

updating to LS980ZV8 as I type. super stoked. the link u posted @stillwaiting255 is the post I had been reading over and over again all day long. lol. so just for anyone interested once u go back to ZV7 stock u can then update OTA to ZV8 then ZVA.

Also just a little piece of info I picked up along the way, I used the correct .dll (LGLS980_20130904_LGFLASHv151) and renamed it to the reported models .dll (LGUP_8974), after doing this LGFlash Tool then ran the update, as normal. best of luck!
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!

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?
greets
@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

ahahah i were not happy with the g2, nice design but mhhh don´t know ... i think after i´ll sell it, and yes i live in italy so ehehe *finger crossing* hope it will go all right ahah at the end i dont think they have to repair hardware, just plug it in their universal computer and flash all again, at the worst case they have to open it and flash on board yey
i just received my new G2 D802 16GB,
i tried to upgrade to kitkat with this guide
(flashed Switzerland 16GB D80220F_00.kdz)
i ended up with a phone that wont boot, it got stuck it fastboot mode, i messed with fastboot until i got to the point i had download mode again, (i messed with the partitions: sb1,tz,laf...)
i tried flashing many roms (Europe Open D80210A_00,UK Open 16GB D80210B_00,Hungary OPEN 16GB KitKat D80220B)
the roms load fine, but now the touch response is unusable (touching a point is being registered in another spot altogether).
this happened with every rom i have tried.
i tried with the tot method from the same thread, i got memory Size mismatch 32G! error (i have a 16GB model),
i tried the tot again with the 32GB rom and it passed, but the problem remains (the bad touch response).
what do i need to do?
Why didn't you just use the PC program to update?
Do it

Maybe you can try that thing from update touch driver or whut from hidden menu.
I also read that some people also had this issue on kitkat but not on jellybean stock
So try some things and report back :silly:

Yes I meant that Step3 from that url.
What you can do is 3 things.
Downgrade to 4.2.2 :/
Connect an Usb OTG mouse to your phone.
Try or OSP(On screen phone) works.
If these things don't work then you must try to find something else cause further then this I don't have any Idea at the moment, maybe later...
Goodluck:good:

thanks,those are 2 great ideas i wish i had thought about!,
i sent the phone to be serviced, i will post here the outcome if that matters.
Ahh okay, sorry for late reaction was busy with school.
If your phone gets serviced then they will also probably ship it back with 4.4.2 stock and also with normal working touch .
you can post the outcome if you want I think
Just wait for it till you get your phone back, then you will be happy again
Update your touch software from service menu and you should be okay.
Check xda for. Service menu code

i managed to solve this.
i bought this "d802" online, the box, phone sticker and "about" all said it was a d802 (normal back panel, no "ATT" logo),
after i opened the phone i discovered the logic board is actually a d800.
i managed to change the model number in build.prop (to d800), and flash the d800 with the tot method, the phone works fine now,
if anyone have the same problem and finds this thread, contact me and i will try to help

no, the d800 cant run firmware built for the d802,
you should flash this tot and upgrade to kitkat (if you want) using this method

Hello,
I have a LG G2 (D802). I was busy flashing the stock KDZ, when I got an error. The progress on my phone stopped, and nothing happened anymore. I wanted to try again, so I turned my phone off. Now, when I boot my phone, it gives the LG logo, and then nothing. When I connect it to my pc, I get a lot of format pop-ups.
I followed this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
The KDZ I used: Netherlands Open 16GB KitKat D80220D
Furthermore, also while connected to the pc, I only see a folder called "image".
Can someone help me with getting my phone back to stock? It doesn't matter if everything gets wiped, I already backed up everything.
Thanks in advance!
If lots of drives still pop up when you connect your phone to the PC,then follow this guide:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQVTc2m6U-I
I did it,and it fixed my download mode,and I could finally access Download Mode.
If your Download Mode still works,try the TOT method,it worked for me,since the KDZ method would be stuck at 2% every time(in my case).
So,after,or if your download mode works,do try the TOT method.

People there really know how to help,they helped me there too
Just dont panic,even if your phone is in a "hard brick" state(doubtfully),there is a fix for it too.
I suggest you do not do anything without consulting with other members.
You just have to be patient.
EDIT
Oh,and go to the Device Manager and tell me what name your G2 has when connected to the PC.

Ugh thank god
those drives SHOULD be popping out
Right click on My Computer and select "Manage"
Then,on the left part of that window,you will see the "Disk Management" option. Click it
Then,you should see a certain Disk which is separated into tons of parts.
This part is crucial!

Ugh thank god
those drives SHOULD be popping out
Right click on My Computer and select "Manage"
Then,on the left part of that window,you will see the "Disk Management" option. Click it
Then,you should see a certain Disk which is separated into tons of parts.
This part is crucial!

Download the kdz suitable for your model and flash it with LG Flash Tool.
Follow the "Back to stock" guide which you mentioned in the OP.
There will be a link to the KDZ archive for various models,and make sure that you select the kdz for the 32 GB variant if you have a 32 GB variant. Because it will be dangerous if you flash a 16gb variant kdz on a 32 gb phone.

EDIT
And if the same thing happens when flashing,fix it again(if it won't access the download mode) and try to flash while using another PC.
Mate, you are the freakin' best!!!! Mah phone works again!!! Now I'm going to install CloudyG2_3.3. What are the steps I need to perform in order to NOT(!!!) brick my phone again?
That'll be my last question, I can't thank you enough!

So the kdz flash worked,and the stock rom boots?
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Forums Pro.
Yea it works! I used the stock KK rom though, since Cloudy requires the KK bootloader. I did it right here yes?

Yes,excellent job.
To root,download "Towelroot" to your phone,install it and press the "Make it rain" button,then install SuperSU,then look for "AutoRec" and make sure you get the version for your variant.
That is just halfway,I will tell you the rest tomorrow,it is 00:26 and I have to get up at 07:00. xD

Haha cheers! I think I got it from there, it's just that I don't want to do it in a wrong order haha ;P
And thanks a lot, again! Get your deserved sleep, I should do that too.. Gotta go up at 06:45 hah!! I WIN! xD
Okay,moving on.
Download the BUMPED TWRP from this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development/twrp-twrp-2-8-0-0-kernel-f2fs-tools-t2898705
It is in a flashable zip,so just flash it with the TWRP which was installed by AutoRec.
You must have the bumped version of TWRP!!
After you flashed the BUMP TWRP,reboot recovery.
Here is a bootloader changer,AROMA edition:http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/d802-bootloader-changer-1-1-jb-kk-lp-t3104380

Hey man,
I noticed that Towelroot doesn't work for LG G2 Lollipop. Any idea how to fix this?
Edit: trying it with another root.
Edit 2: rooted. Going to flash now.
Alright it works, thanks! Can you tell me why I need the bumped version? Just curious

It is complicated,just do it. XD
I was asking the same thing like you.I ignored others,rushed with roms,didnt use the BUMPED TWRP and my phone was bricked.
Basically the TWRP you get with AutoRec is just capable of flashing partitions for the bootloader,not the system partition(the rom is in the system partition).
The BUMPED TWRP has a certain type of an exploit,and lets us install those system partitions.
Shortly:You can't install roms without the BUMPED TWRP.

I'm guessing my phone is refurbished?
I bought a D802 from a third-party, with:
- 32GB ROM
- 4.4.2 D80220b firmware
- 2G, 3G, 4G working
- The csmg.lgmobile.com website said that according to my IMEI, my model is the UAE 32GB D802 and gave me the D80230a firmware for manual flash via LG Flash tool.
I used the phone for a while, rooted it and used Xposed. Never got recovery so no backup(wish I'd seen the SRK tool before). Then I downloaded the firmware from the csmg.lgmobile.com website. I flashed it via the Flash tool and everything seemed fine. Then it booted:
- Touchscreen was erratic. Ghost touches, dead spots, phantom touches, whatever.
- The Baseband Version and IMEI in About Phone both say Unknown
- ROM has converted to a 16GB version
- Download mode is fine along with every other feature of the phone
After that I looked around and found a UAE D80220c firmware and flashed that. It flashed fine but all the above issues remained the same.
I browsed around extensively here and found out:
- Refurbished phones have their back cover and firmware changed to imitate D802's.
- My phone is probably some other G2 model with D802 firmware and an altered IMEI
- The actual model of my device is UNDER the motherboard. Which, apparently, I must get hold of so I can flash the appropriate stock kdz. This gets a bit too hardware-y for me.
So, basically, my phone is no more useful than a brick at the moment. Any expert help would be appreciated but here are the main questions that I'd really like answered:
A. Should I try various flashing the kdz files from different models mentioned in the link I gave up ^there until one clicks and then try to do something about the IMEI?
B. Is there any chance that my phone is beyond repair forever?
C. Should I stop messing around with my mediocre knowledge and take it to a repair shop?
So.. I own a D802. I had the awesome idea to update without making backups and stuff...
I just want to list the things that are going on ATM.
-TWRP touch is messed up. Cannot use keyboard or slide to enable ADB Sideload (I have been able to do that a couple times after trying for 5 minutes swiping like an idiot)
-Phone gets recognized by PC but I when I access the folder it says that it is empty, and I can't see any files inside the actual device.
-In TWRP I get this error talking about not being able to mount /data.
-Also I it says Internal Storage (0 MB)
-When I try to wipe internal storage I get the same can't mount /data error.
-Cannot access bootloader/fastboot
-Boots in TWRP always
-ADB Sideload gives this error...

-I have tryied the TOT method but it starts in Download Mode and then boots in TWRP again, and after 1,5 min or so says that it failed (on LG Flash Tool)
Guys... In all honesty... I am quite sad, can't buy a new phone ATM, am no pro at this stuff, and I am really confused. LOSING hope over here. Any kind of help is appreciated!!
+I had the idea that maybe I could emulate the Phone on the pc without actually needing to have android running, maybe it would be able to detect it by itself.. I don't know. Guys... I don't know what to do. I haven't tryied KDZ method yet but I don't know what different I can expect than the TOT method.

I'd try the KDZ method. It sounds like you just need to reflash your phone. But I'm ignorant with these things. Good luck.

I might as well give it a shot since the TOT method was no luck...
Guys if anyone could, I would really love a link for the D802 KDZ file. I don't seem to understand which one I have to download when I get a list of all the available downloads for every version of G2.

edit: there should be a link to a bunch of KDZ files, you will have to choose the correct one. again, good luck.
YES! I got stock lollipop flashed with the KDZ method easy. I don't know why I didn't try it before. I guess I thought It would be the same as TOT which failed. In any case I got it to work, rooted it and once again got CM12.1 in there. I guess I never learn. It did work this time though hehe
