I wiped/formatted everything in TWRP. Now of course, there's no recovery or backups and when I do a factory reset, it boots and gets stuck with the LG logo.
HELP!

How do I do that exactly? Is there software on the computer side I have to install?
Install adb on your PC (Google on how to install if need be). Then push your file from PC to phone as instructed here http://teamw.in/ADBSideload

Doesn't look like the instructions include the LS980 Sprint version.
I'm trying to read up on installing ADB on my PC put a bit tougher than simply installing.
I've installed Android SDK onto my computer, running cmd from platform-tools, and did a "adb devices" and it cannot find my device.
any tips at this point?

I will get you some details instructions if you can wait till tomorrow.
Or, read this thread and YouTube how to do an adb side load. In short, you will need to download android sdk to your PC, download the rom zip file, plug your phone in and enter twrp's adb side load, open command prompt, and enter adb side load command.

Thanks. That is what I figured I would have to do. ADB just isn't find the device though. I can boot into TWRP.

Ok, so here's what I did to install a ROM in TWRP when I wiped all the data using adroid SDK tools and TWRP ADB side load:
- Go here to download Android SDK https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html (remember where you save/install it)
- Download your ROM and Gapps file (For Sprint, I think we only have Carbon ROM so use this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2502789)
- Once you've downloaded the ROM and Gapps zip files, save the zip file into "your drive:\androidSDK\sdk\platform-tools" (this just makes it easier to find when doing the adb side load)
- Now plug your phone into your PC. Go into TWRP and start up ADB Side load. I think it's in Advanced button.
- Now open up the "your drive:\androidSDK\sdk\platform-tools" folder. In that folder, do a Shift-Right-Click and click "Open Command Window Here" to open cmd w/ that destination already mapped out.
- From here, all you have to do is type in "adb sideload [enter zip file name here]" and it should start installing over to your phone.
**** One important thing to note, if for some reason, in the command prompt your device is not visible, download PDA net for Android http://pdanet.co/ (this was actually my case and PDA net worked like a charm)

when turning it on hold volume down and power button at the same time. Then when the LG logo comes up let go and hold them down again and press the power key twice to get into the recovery or maybe it will boot up normally.
Hey thanks for the reply, i tried your trick it doesn't work then i followed the fix with ubuntu, after that no more black screen I'm now stuck on the LG logo all the time .
Help !!
If you can enter download mode, try flashing appropriate kdz file to your phone.
You can also try to install pdanet and check with that. Select the device and proceed. Once the drivers are installed .. Try flashing the stock... Lemme know of this works

If you successfully transferred the correct recovery image using dd commands you should be able to boot into recovery. Have you tried booting into recovery after dd command? I did not even push the other files listed in guide, all I pushed was recovery image and it booted like a charm. Keep in mind I do own the VS980 variant, although it should be the same process just different image files.
So i did use the dd command on it, and transfered the openrecovery twrp for f320s but it just cannot boot on it with vol down and power

Well to enter the recovery you supposed to hold down Vol+ & Power until LG logo appears, release both, and then immediately press&hold those two buttons again.
Can you get your device in adb mode?

PDANET is the key
Did u try using the pdanet? I was exactly in the same situation as u are. No matter if the lg drivers are installed.... The pc won't recognize the phone as ADB.EXE had stopped working. Here is what I did:
1) install pdanet.
2) it asked me to select the device and then it installed the drivers.
4) with this hopefully the ADB.EXE should start in your device manager. In my case it did.
5) go to google adb bundle folder.
6) go to SDK>platform tools> and paste your CM and gapps there.
7) try bridging the connection by going into the command prompt > and CD into the platform tools directory.
8) in the cmd put the command 'amd push "CM NAME" /sdcard/' and hit enter
9) this should push the file onto the phone... Do the same for gapps... And install it from the TWRP.
10) ALL THE BEST

Hi ! thanks for the help but my device is still not recognized by the computer after i typed adb devices, i guess it's pretty over now, just gonna send it back to china and try to make the warranty work !
When I bricked mine at the LG logo, I got into download mode by

Hope it helps
Tried that but can't access to the download mode
try this even if you had a bad flash the hard drive is split in three parts you only messed up one part so download mode should still be bootable. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475045

Is there anyone who can help me to restore the device

Thanks for your reply, my problem is that I don't understand how do reroot the device.
The device does not have many options, pressing the buttons (power and Vol +) the device enters in a State Factory Hard Reset.
Pressing (power and Vol-) goes into recovery mode and loads the black screen with anticipation for the adb commands
reboot system now
update from external apply sdcard
apply update from cache
apply update from ADB
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
With closed then press the device (Vol +) and connect the USB cable enters into Download Mode, here you also don't know what to do.
When I hit the power button just opens the device showing the logo of LG and the led flashing in green/blue and after a while makes itself restarted
I searched the forum for reroot and saw that need to do some settings on the device to do root, did I forget something and so I do not understand?
Sorry, I don't understand and become tedious but it's my first time playing with the object
so, you dont have recovery now?
"adb reboot recovery" not working ?
Based on what you said, you are able to get in recovery and adb is working, then push the ROM zip file over and reflash it in recovery.
I'm happy because I just unbrick my device by selecting Download Mode Firmware Update and with the LGFlashTools loaded LS980ZV8_ software 13.51097. tot.
Now I lie in my original problem, I want to unlock to accept SIM card from another provider and another country.
Some help to be able to start from somewhere the unlock process?

No but I fixed it. I had to put it in download mode and flash the stock rom back to it.
Hi there, this is a big trouble.
My LG G2 (16GB, european format, I bought it in Italy) always work perfectly. I didn't mod anything til yesterday, just rooted and added superuser, and worked fine. I have the original stock firmware and original Android 4.4.0 Kit Kat.
Then yesterday I wanted to install the XCam, so before I install the TWRP recovery. Disaster: black, total black. From that moment, G2 doesn't work. And didn't go to recovery or download.
One of the last moves I did before the disaster: TWRP installing asked me the format of my mobile, "AT&T" or "international", and I chose the second one.
Anyway, after some attempts, I was succesful in restore a few modes. I followed this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696
With Ubuntu on the terminal of my friend, I followed the guide and now this is the current situation:
1) When I try to press power, it stucks at the logo
2) If I press power & vol -, appears the logo, then press these again and I go in sort of Hard Factory Reset, but it's not really true, cause I press 3 times power and I go in TWRP recovery
3) If i press vol + while I'm plugging mobile to PC, appears the "download mode" screen on mobile. But PC doesn't see it
(see the photos I attached)
Now my real problem is how to install and restore the original stock firmware. All this trouble happened not because of OTA or a mod, but just cause of installing a TWRP in bad way.
In the guide I linked above, it suggests to write some command strings in recovery but that doesn't work for me, I guess cause I don't have an OTA.
So I don't know how to insert a file to restore my firmware, because I don't have in my memory and, as you know, G2 doesn't have external memory.
I tried connecting a usb pen drive but doesn't see it in recovery.
I tried connecting in download mode to PC, using LG Flash Mobile and more, but doesn't work cause my PC seems unable to see the mobile.
I followed this guide hoping to modify the hosts file:

But didn't work. Also, I can't activate usb debug cause I can't enter in my mobile.

Help, please
borrow or buy a mini usb otg stick, put the flashable stock rom on it (for your variant), connect it to the device, enter twrp, install the rom zip from usb otg...
see in twrp under "mount" if it shows you "usb/otg" (don't know which twrp version you have so i assume it's the older 2.7.x.x one)
you can also search the xda on how to sideload a rom zip from a computer to a bricked or formatted device (i personally have mini usb otg stick so i never used sideloading)
good luck
You haven't attached any images of the download mode.
Downloade mode is:
1. power off your lg g2
2. hold volume up AND connect g2 to pc
Now..if there is an actual download mode with arrows then it's ok. If you see the blue circles only then you have to fix it.
This would be the next step then...
