[Q] Bought D802, got D801/D803 now it's bricked.

I bought LG G2 d802 from ebay. the seller gave me a phone that had stickers that named d802, Imei of D802 and everything.
I tried to update the phone. it got stuck in lg logo. I fixed downloadmode after using a tutorial that I found in another forum. so now I have it (I had fastboot mode before)
But, everytime I try to flash the T-mobile KDZ file (D80120E_00), It fails at 2%.
What should I do?
Sorry for my English, Thank you.

Okay guys,
how can you be sure that you both have a D801 instead of a D802?
@theitay-why are you flashing an D801 firmware if you've just said your device is an D802?!?
why aren't you flashing a D802 in download mode?
there is a list of stock firmware available in the general section i believe.
if you can't find it let me know.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
Which will tell you to use this site to download firmware: http://storagecow.eu/index.php
and then i download http://storagecow.eu/Xda/LG G2/Stock/Europe OPEN D80220D_00.kdz
this is the Europe Open D80220D Version. i prefer to use this as i know Towel Root works.
Not tried it in H.
also worth reading this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development-d802/fix-lg-flash-tool-stuck-2-t3031112
hope you get your phone working

I got a new D802 Phone With IMEI matched Box.. But Seller is Fraud. It Have V20B on it... And when I open A webpage it goes to chinese Language...
I have Checked IMEI and its from Thailand.. LTE band 3 1800MHz should be working on it but it didn't accepts it..
After usage of a month.. The screen area of 4 5 6 row in dial pad and other applications stopped working..
I read on XDA that it may be a software problem, Reset my mobile twice and then go for Europe 20H KDZ Flash..
After Flashing My storage becomes 16GB, 10GB showing, All screen unresponsive to touch. Baseband unknown and IMEI null..
I knew this error comes of From wrong version of Firmware flashing..
I TOT flashed SEA 20GB 10C. And Thailand V20C and China Unicom V20C KDZ Flashed.. But all in vain..
So, After discussing in other forms, I have to advised to open my Mobile and physically check motherboard..
When I open it.
Bottom Left D801/ D803 on Black Body,
Sticker of LS980 On Top Right..
But My board is D801, Two from chips with silver encasing and Backside of motherboard also D801..
I Flashed D801 T Mobile KDZ and Storage becomes normal 32GB.. Touch in previous state. All working, except 4 5 6 and Hardware Key control activated..
But Baseband Still unknown and IMEI Null..
I have IMEI writeen in Paper. But is IMEI of Thailand D802. So I can't Use LG Mobile support Tool Also..

so to clarify, you bought a 32GB phone from somewhere and the seller said it was a D802 but it turns out to be a D801?
from my understanding and what the other user has already mentioned, the EFS is messed up.
i don't think i'm allowed to fully discuss this on XDA but i'll try explain. i think you need some sort of back up of the EFS partition from yourself or a blank one.
i had a similar issue with my note 2 and ended up buying an octopus box. i know that the LG G2 is compatible with that box.
you can re write your IMEI. that box cost a lot. i know there have been free tools available, specially for qualcomm devices but i'm no expert in that department though.
other than your IMEI, you have a full working device?

Its refurbished Set, and The Chinese Or Hong Kong person Managed To Put a D802 Thailand IMEI On it... And I thinks either they flashed a D802 Modified rom, Or Use Build.prop Edits to its look like D802..
I have even Checked With 3845#*802# hidden menu...
Check these two pictures also
IMEI isn't a big Issue. Baseband unknown is the real issue...
When Mobile is on It didn't recognized in LG Mobile support tool or LG PC Suit,
But in Download Mode LG mobile support tool recognized it as D802 and Software of D801, Giving option of Upgrade...

lg g2 softbrick

hello. i recently purchased lg g2. its back cover says d802 but on the inside it says d801/d803. so first idk what model it actually is. can u please help me figure out its model?
secondly after a firware upgrade through lg pc suite it got stuck on lg logo and wont move forward. it can enter download mode. idontknow much about software programming so i seeked help. i took it to repairs but the guy said someone flashed the wrong rom into ur phone as we cant determine which model it actually is so now you have to purchase new IC for your phone. so rom flashing wont fix the problem now i guess. please help me out whether i really have to change the ic or it can be solved through software fix. i would be really thankful for ur help.

Weird Lg G2 Version Need Help Rooting

Hi, I'm a new member in Xda, but i've been around for a while so I know that if there's a solution to my problem, it'd be probably coming from one of you guys, so thanks in advance ... !
So I bought a new Lg G2 a few days ago, it was in new condition, and both the label and rear cover tell it's a D802 version.
But I 've encountered some weird issues, first, when I type it's imei in imei.info it says it's A SIERRA WIRELESS device...
and lg's ota update center says it's not registered yet.
And yesterday when I tried to root via IOROOT25 method ( Because it's running kitkat 4.4.2) the recovery menu on the G2 shows some 80020c version on the top roght corner of the screen, which probably means it's a D800 model. (But on android info it says d802, and d80220c version....)
So I'd really appreciate some help from you guys, because I really want to root it, and maybe get Lollipop,
Will ioroot Brick it ?
And is there a way to save The Imei because that one feels a little weird and modified...

No one ?

Hi! Welcome to xda!?
I actually had a pretty similar problem on my own g2 (d802)
I bought it from aliexpress, my imei number showd it is a d800 model! But all other stuff in system showd d802..
The first thing you should do is open/ your back cover (there are instructions on YouTube) and check the real model, it sould be on the buttom left corner beneath the battery.
Mine showd it is ad802 but a friend of mine found out that his d802 was a fake one and he really got a d800 (allthough in system info ut showd d802! He bricked his device ?)
Anyways, if you see its a d802 you can use it with no fear i tried several roms on mine and all are perfect! Right now using cloudyg2 3.3 with dorimanx, and battery life is amazing!! ?
Oh and btw, ioroot didnt work for me, i also was on d80020c, but no fear! used stumproot and it worked flawlessly
Good luck! Tell me what you find out

Thanks to help me

the only way 100% sure is to open phone and look at motherboard.. yes i said motherboard only forget what the rest says. your variant will be what the bottom of motherboard says..

Well, this thread about refurbished phones says:
The only way to be 100% sure of your model is to remove the motherboard and check the number on the unit itself. While the IMEI, stamps and battery cover can all be modified or changed, the marking on the back of the motherboard cannot be so this method is the most reliable method of checking your model.
