Hello! Same problem...
My L5 is making me crazy... It has CyanogenMod 10 nighlty. A friend of mine was using it and he tried to install the GAPPS after he did a factory reset. I have no idea what guide he used but it got soft bricked... It's constantly showing a "stopped working" message and after a while reboots by itself.
I tried to do a factory reset but it always returns to the same point, same apps installed, everything like the reset never happened. I even used CWM to reset it and it allways goes back to the same recovery point.
After a while I decided to flash a stock room but here's the problem: I can't get into emergency mode.
After reading ALL post about it I found that there's at least three ways of entering EM, (1) down VOL and plug in usb cable without battery; (2) down+up VOL and plug in usb; (3) down+up VOL + power botton.
Conclusions:
(1) - gives me a screen full of code like a command line
(2) - White screen
(3) - White screen
I've read ALL the unbrinking post on the internet, including xda, and none of them helped.
The KDZ Updater never recognizes the phone. I installed all the drivers but everytime I plug in the phone it installes the same LGE MTP drive...
Can anyone help, please?!

Hello everybody. May I introduce myself: I am the noob of the day.
Today I tried to update the android version of my LG Optimus L5 aka E610 by following this guide:
androidteen. [cant post proper links as a new user] com/lg-optimus-l5-e610612-android-4-1-2-how-to-root-and-install-custom-recovery/[
And it worked! Yeah. But then I had the marvellous idea of letting my phone download an official update through the main settings.
And after that my phone shut down to reboot and I became captive to the everlasting limbo of Coldworkmod- Recovery.
Now, everytime I restart my phone I end up in the CWM-Recovery Mode. If I want to use one of the hotkeys to enter the download mode or to execute a hard-reset the display gets stuck on the LG-Logo.
Since I can use the CWM-Mode, I tried to fix the problem by "zip-flashing" some "exitrecovery.zip" from my external-sd-card. But nope, nothing happened. Then I thought- hey lets update CWM. And I was able to update Clockworkmod itself to version "v.6.0.4.7". But I still end up in the CWM-Mode after rebooting.
If anyone knows a solution to my problem, please I need your help, because I am not well versed in this world of cell-phone-dystopia.

you can solve your problem restoring stock firmware throught KDZ
but did you tried to flash a rom into cwm?for example if you have 6.0.4.7 you can try to flash cm11
Yes, I tried to flash Cyanogenmod 11. My phone says that the installation was sucessfull, but I'm still trapped in CWM.
And I KDZ doesn't recognize the phone, because I can't get into download mode.
=(
have you tried ?

download custom stock or stock .zip
format all partitions in cwm (/system /data /cache /dalvik... etc.)
instal zip from sideload
reboot phone now
what happens when you:
pull battery out
press and hold vol-
plug usb to pc and phone
wait ~5 seconds
put battery back in ?

It is possible to make jig at home from scrap electronics or new resistors from shop and usb cable

I know that there are loads of threads on XDA regarding bricked G2s (and how to fix them), and believe me, I have scoured every one I could find. None of them had the same situation as me. Here it is:
- tried upgrading rooted G2 (d802) to KitKat through PC suite
- on reboot, phone gives repeated "Unfortunately, com.android.systemui has stopped" messages
- this prevents me from doing anything - cannot start developer tools/USB debugging; cannot software factory reset; may as well have a broken screen
- tried booting into recovery - there seems to be no recovery
- I have booted into recovery before the update; I tried using the same method - nothing
- I googled for alternate methods, none of them worked either
- has download mode - what does this enable me to do?
- tried using a 'restore to stock' flashing tutorial on XDA - didn't work
- it is here if anyone was curious
- cannot access through ADB
- TWRP gone
- have no idea how to access through fastboot
Any other options available? Is there any other way to enable USB debugging, trigger fastboot, access the phone through ADB, or factory reset it?

ok well first entering factory reset(or custom recovery)
-before d80220d the key combination to enter factory reset is with phone fully powered off hold volume down+power and when lg logo pops up let go and hold volume down+power
-after d80220d(or any update that includes knock code) the combination was changed(pretty sure it had to do with the fact that on kitkat we used stock recovery to install root and everyone who couldn't get in via adb just had to use button combination which everyone knew) and the new combination with phone fully powered off is to hold volume down+power and when lg logo pops up let go and hold onto volume up+down don't touch power, if you have tried these then you should mention it

You are an absolutely beautiful person. I think I have fallen in love with you. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! I swear I found at least 5 different tutorials and none mentioned this.
If your name doesn't go down in history, the world is cruel and unjust.
Sorry. But thanks. SO MUCH.
Im facing the same problem, wanted to go back stock and had CloudFlexy 2.3 installed. Did the firmware flashing, got stuck with procesesses stopping and couldn't boot into factory reset.
Found this thread and got to factory reset, tried factory reset but now my phone only has android figure with spinning thingy inside of it going on in my screen. ADB wont recognize the phone.. I think i need to flash stock rom or something but not sure how to. Please help, how did you proceed rtswan1211 after getting the factory reset screen?
Edit:
After waiting for 'bout 10mins for something to happen i just tried to reboot the phone and still the same spinning android logo came on. Finally plugged in the USB cable and phone booted up with working software. Had me really worried.

after tried several times, FACTORY RESET successfully done.
Previously, I updated the 20G through custom recovery and forgot to wipe clean. After completely installed the 20G, error shows blocking the screen and the custom recovery was gone. after several attempted, I succesfully done by:
- turn off the phone completely
- press vol down and power
- release immediately, upon LG logo pop up, and
- press vol up and vol down
- Factory reset menu pop up
Seems now is harder than before, I need couple times to try before succeed
Hello all,
I have successfully bricked my phone after I wanted to install TWRP on it via the app provided by GooglePlay store!
I have downloaded the app and selected my phone (model LG G2xx name - don't know if it was a mistake) and installed it; then the application asked me to restart the phone and enter the TWRP mode to install another CFW.
But to my surprise, the phone got a black screen and when I plugged it on my Windows 8.1 PC i got a lot of partitions asking to format to use.
I used Partager.info 's guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142) successfully under Ubuntu 14.04.1 but what I got was the LG logo without any animation or prompts.
The phone does not turn off either! I have managed to reset (turn off) the phone by pressing the power + volume down buttons at the same time but it keeps coming back. Also I have managed (after its automatic restart) to enter Download Mode (power + volume down to reset and then very quickly - before it starts - volume up + power button) using the FlashTool provided by hyelton as I have used before (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476) but the phone does not seem to be USB responsive on Windows or Ubuntu. I cannot see any devices in Device Manager or partitions in Disk Management. I only saw a "QHSUSB_BULT" hidden driver in Device Manager and I have uninstalled it to see if my PC finds the device again but nothing. I had the LG drivers preinstalled (LGUnitedMobileDriver_S51MAN312AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.12.3) but still no device detected.
I have also tried to quickly turn off the phone and before it starts to press the volume up and plug the USB on my PC to show the adb mode but again
please find me any way to sort this out, I had just recently replaced my screen, earspeaker and back cover

If you see many partitions, then you are in the 9006 mode. Make sure the 9006 drivers (and qhsusbbulk drivers too) are installed and follow my post here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...lcomm-9006-t2939627/post57984541#post57984541

This is just an extremely detailed explanation of his method.
It uses windows, no ubuntu needed.
Don't thank me, thank @tungkick if it saves your phone.
I have international D802 where I have installed a custom rom based on android 4.4.2. Yesterday I wanted to upgrade it to an android 5 rom and and mistakenly installed a new custom rom that was builded for F320S. After reboot only the fastboot mode was displayed. Then I’ve tried to repair the download mode by flash the img files, but as I’ve verified later they was not intended for LG G2 D802 32Gb version. So now if I try to enter either the download mode or the hard reset / recovery I see only the LG logo with security error.
I’ve tried a different button-combinations. Please correct me if it was wrong.
For power off I’ve pressed the power button for about 15 seconds, wait until the logo is displayed then hidden then shortly displayed again and then the display is black.
For hard reset / recovery I’ve pressed press volume down button and power button together until the LG logo appears on the screen. When the LG logo is displayed, un-pressed the power button, but keep pressing the volume down key and then pressed once more the power button. Then the LG logo is displayed again, and then below was the security error displayed.
For download mode, I’ve pressed and hold the volume up button and connected the USB cable. But after some seconds the security error was displayed and the device manager in windows didn’t showed any changes.
Is it possible to recover the phone from the security error state? Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT:
Solved in following steps.
1. Open the phone like described here: LG G2 is UNBRICKABLE NOW!
It was not hard and you don't need any special tools, only a small screw driver. Look first this both videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15krGmydqgQ&feature=youtu.be and http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2582142. The do the steps till you can access the processor chip. Ensure the battery is disconnected. By disconnecting the both left and right plates be sure to separate it from the surface.
2. Connect the phone to the PC with USB cable. Open the device manager.
3. Short the test pins on the chips, see the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiofVOqfnxw with e.g. bent paper clip till you'll see the new QHSUSB qualcomm 9006 connection on COM port. Then you'll see a lot of windows messages about to format the new founded partitions. Close them.
4. Flash an images, like laf.img,aboot.img, boot.img from your phone model using export very partition see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d5b_osUTug for details and files.
5. Now the download mode is available. Remove the usb cable, enter the download mode and flash a original stock rom for your model using the LG Flash Tool 2014.
Now your phone is unbricked!
Any questions?
What is the security error on LG G2? Is it a common way to reset some settings to reset it?
Added solution in the first post. If you have any questions, please post.
Ive done till step 3, only one window poped up, and i don't get step 4, i still got the security thing...
Help I guess?

You've shorted a wrong pin, please try again step 3 untill you will see the qualcomm 9006 and not 9008 or another number.
