PLEASE READ EVERYTHING FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDING
Hey fellow LG Owner(s) I am writing this asking for some help. I know that majority of LG Phones use the same software and flashing tools regarding taking your phone back to stock. I currently own an LG G Flex (LS995 Sprint Variant) and I managed to soft brick my phone. I have posted this same message over at the LG G Flex Threads but so far I have gotten no one to provide me some sort of solution on how to un-brick or factory reset my phone.
The status of my phone before it got bricked was it had Root (IOROOT method), Busy-Box (by Jrummy), Build.Prop was edited to display as a Nexus 5, and boot-loader locked along with no custom recovery. If you’re wondering why my boot-loader was locked and why there wasn’t any type of custom recovery was due to the sad fact that Developers are having a hard time on cracking it.
Now to explain on how I soft bricked my phone. I was changing my font style by using a tool called ROM Toolbox (by Jrummy). I managed to change my font once and I attempted to change it a second time, since I was looking for something that displayed it wider and bolder. So as I applied install on the new font I got an automatic reboot.
The reboot consisted of the normal LG Logo display, followed by a black screen and staying as a black screen. On the upper left of my phone the notification indicator was flashing multiple colors (red, white, blue etc). This is the current state of my phone, black screen with a multicolor notification.
My attempts to fix:
- Simple reboot of the phone ((fail))
- Let the phones battery drain out then charge for a few minutes and restart ((fail))
- Managed to get into STOCK recovery and perform clean partition ((fail)
- Managed to get into STOCK recovery and apply factory reset ((fail))
- I got into some weird mode which also gave me the option to apply factory reset ((fail))
- I followed this tutorial (LG Flash Tool) on how to revert back to stock (by hyelton) ((fail))
Link to tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2644083
The tutorial by hyelton was almost successful to reverting back to stock firmware until I got to the last step (Number 6). The error that occurred by using the LG Flash Tool was when the tool attempted to flash the stock firmware it gave me a Download FAIL!! “Device Model is different“ notification (Images below). I did this tutorial at least seven times and I got no luck. Every single time that I attempted to do this I kept getting the same notification. I have now ran out if ideas on what to do.
My theory, I believe that by changing my build prop to display as a nexus 5 is the reason why I keep getting this fail notification. On the phone it-self when I put it into download mode it even displays as a Nexus 5 (Images below).
I was wondering since it’s possible to get into STOCK RECOVERY, I saw that it had an option for “ADB SIDELOAD” is it possible to push something thru ADB??? Any type of help is greatly appreciated and thanked. Please do not get upset that you see this in multiple LG threads, I am just trying to find a solution to UNBRICK this very expensive phone that I bought and I cannot afford to just use it as a paper weight. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS
Here is a Link to all my files regarding STOCK tot,dll,lg flash tools,aboot, buildprop, lg usb drivers and adb drivers that are for my phone
Link: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1D8UNLjuTB6TWpCQ1pJME5qWk0&usp=sharing
i hope these files help anyone that are attempting to help me put my phone back to stock
Alright yall, I am almost official screwed. I purchased this phone about a month ago from Best Buy and they stated that I am out of there 15 day window so I cannot exchange or replace for the same phone. I then went to Sprint on whom I have phone insurance for and they stated that they cannot do anything and that I have to go to one of their Sprint repair stores. I went to one of the repair stores and the gentlemen that assisted me plugged my phone to his computer and immediately knew that my phone was rooted. So from there I played the dumb blonde card acting like I don’t know what he’s talking about and from there he directed me to call LG and see what they can do. So now the current status is I filed a repair request and now I am awaiting a reply from LG. Does anyone have any suggestion???
**SOLUTION** hey yall i got the solution to my problem and it was simply by downloading this universal custom .dll from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2663369
and i managed to flash back to stock recovery using this guide. instead using the dll on the the guide i used the custom one.

well not sure about g flex but for my g2 I had same problem when flashing back to stock it kept saying wrong firmware finally I found I downloaded an updated firmware and so did not match error, try downloading and flashing the firmware the phone came with but not updated, in my case my phone came with d80010d and I was trying to flash updated d80010o, downloaded d80010d and all went fine, not sure if it's the same for you I too changed my phone model in build.prop and my phone went into fastboot mode on restart. Hope it saves u too.

how remember that my bootloader is still locked and this model does not have a custom recovery. but i am able to access the stock recovery with an option to ADB SIDELOAD. I got word from a DEV stating that:
"Factory recovery won't let you adb sideload a package without a LG verified updater script so it won't work." (by XDA justinswidebody)
but if he is incorrect i wouldn't mind attempting trial and error. what do you think???
okay so I tried a different approach I grabbed a d820(nexus 5 model) dll and replaced everything inside with info from the ls995 dll hopefully this works heres the link https://www.dropbox.com/s/kh9ns4gzw3i4gq3/d820_ls995.dll

what's the version of your flash tool
edit: after some reading to flash nexus tots you need lg flash tool 1.8
re-edit: I believe that the dll needs to be modified so that it accepts the device as a nexus 5 but once it's done flashing it needs to make the device and ls995 again, but for now it's 1am and I need to be up early later so I'll work on something later, also just some extra information on ther stuff: as for flashing the build prop if you can manage to make it into a flashable update.zip(which also places it in corresponding directory) which is also signed and you can sideload it should flash or just give an error, and another thing that could work with above method is flashing a corrupted kernel which will throw your phone into fastboot mode and with correct files and commands you can repartition the entire device to stock(this one is very dangerous/risky would not recommend it)

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

Thanks! But does my internal storage get whiped? Will all my pictures etc. be gone?
And the first thred removes the security error right? And after that I can just boot into recovery mode (I can boot in recovery btw) and flash a new rom? Just wanted to know this so I don't go through all that trouble for nothing
Edit: You know I can enter both download and recovery mode right?

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:

i installed the drivers and the USB is connected but the pc don;t even say that the device is connected . and nothing in device manager at all
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 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,

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

Ok so i bought the lg g2 a while back thinking it was the d802 model but i was suspicious about it so i opened it up and looked at the back of the motherboard. In reality its the d800 model which i believe is the AT&T model?
Now what im running is a bizzare rom which looks like the stock kk lg rom for the g2 but when i go to about device and software info there is no option to check for updates and the rom shows that my model is the d802 in the about device and then hardware info. Even when i connect to the lg pc suite it says that my model is the d802 and there is no update for it and im running the latest version "d8022c". Now i know this is all incorrect as i looked at the motherboard and over there it says that its the d800 model of the lg g2.
Before i knew that this was the d800 i flashed a rom for d802 on my device. When the rom was installed through cwm recovery(i bought a used phone and it came pre rooted and pre installed with cwm recovery) i rebooted the phone but then the lg logo appeared and on the top left of the screen it said fastboot mode started and udc start.i didnt know what to do so i looked up the key combination to go into recovery and tried that. Fortunately it worked and i was in recovery mode. I restored the rom that i backuped earlier and rebooted the phone. It works normal now but my question is " how do i install a lollipop rom on my phone? Do i just flash a rom for the d800?"
Sorry for such a long and lengthy description but i wanted to tell everything about my phone so there was no confusion and sorry for the incorrect english if you encountered any(english is not my first language)
Please help me. I just wanna install a lollipop rom ='(

Sorry for such a long and lengthy description but i wanted to tell everything about my phone so there was no confusion and sorry for the incorrect english if you encountered any(english is not my first language)
Please help me. I just wanna install a lollipop rom ='(

First of all, you need to install a d800 ROM immediately. Then use twrp or terminal emulator to flash back your laf partition (download mode). I'm in a hurry and cannot provide instructions sorry

Alright go to twrp click advanced and start adb sideload. Then use adb sideload to flash a d800 rom this is to correct the boot loader (aboot and boot) then download terminal command and the d800 laf.IMG from codefi.re
Then put that directly in your SD card and from terminal type su and click enter. Then use this command type it in exactly " dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota "

Ok i understood some of the things you said but i found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/help/flashing-d800-rom-d802-viceversa-story-t3128639/page2
Over there "umermushtaq's" method on intsalling cloudy g2 seems alot easier and it seems to be fixing my problem. Is it ok if i follow that? I just want your opinion on that and if you dont recommend that ill try using your method but you'd have to use more simpler terms.
Im really really sorry as im a big noob. Sorry once again.
very frustrated
nothing seems to work...
i rooted my LG g2 D801
with the all in one toolkit
i can use ADB and communicate with the
phone
so i followed this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670
used option 2
file were pushed and all seems ok
so i use quick boot app to reboot in to recovery
and i get
black screen with small white fonts on top left that says
Secure boot error
cause : boot certification error.
then
white screen with black characters
Critical error
------------------------
DemiGod crash handler : Critical Error!
press key to choose dload mode or reboot.
1) volume up : dload mode
2) volume down : reboot
if you choose dload mode ,
please do following action .
1) dload mode , connect usb
2) get the ram dump image using QPST configuration
------------------------------------------
Same thing if i use flashify
to try install the TWRP.IMG

i cant use AutoRec as the screen dont respond to the touchscreen
i followed intruction to downgrade super Su to 2.46 but still
touchscreen dont work on Autorec...

Autorec is damn slow and has no progress bar. While its gathering device infos it won't ever respond. Be patient and when Autorec finished gathering it will work. Good luck!

Yes sir... Followed the same flashed back to stock using lg flash tools and then repeated the process and voila I'm now running on cyanogenmod 13 snapshot build....Thanks a lot..btw if you're on cm13 have you tested out the latest nightly....is it better and bug free or should i keep using the snapshot build....its very smooth but i just find the battery consumption to be a bit high.. Anyways thanks a lot for your help...

I get the pop ups that says finished gathering information and backup complete
still i waited 5 minutes ( lol... yess too long.. but just to make sure )
and press the screen... NOTHING!!!!
so i will think will flask stock
but KK
right ?
i already downloaded d801v20g00.kdz
and im now that one stock
BTW,
a friend of mine just got a NEXUS 5 and the camera sux
very grainy in marginal light, suppose to be very similar to the G2 but no!
G2 is way better camera
also i have read somehwere that you can install another camera package from the G3 or G4
if i an not mistaken and that is better than the stock G2 camera
The better the algorithms to render a JPG from the RAW DATA of the chip camera sensor
the best the pic looks
is XCAM the one ?
Well, im back to stock d801v20g
i am planning to install Cloudy v3 or CM13
any recomendation ?
i heard XCAM only work with stocks
so... tough decisions
