This is my first thread ever ok, i need help unbricking my gt540. i turn it on and i just get the LG logo. it will go in download mode but what do i do from there?
If you did it with kdz updater than:
pull out battery, sim and sd
connect phone with computer, make sure you use the usb port on the back of the computer, yes it makes a diferent.
disable lg modem in the device manager
flash a rom with fastboot
go in fastboot by camara+power
connect to computer
type 'fastboot -w' and 'fastboot reboot' in cmd
then flash the rom you want to use.
That should help

Just to ask how will we flash the ROM with fastboot?
The phone is currently dead, once plug into the usb port (at the back) only the LG logo apprears blink once then the LG logo remains unless plug-out. So I'm having hard time to understand how can I go to fastboot mode. Doing your instruction - holding the power+camera button - before pluging-in and keeping it press down until the LG logo apprears yields no desirable result.
I have fastboot.exe and the adb.dlls, how ever if runned it just display "waiting for device".
Ive use the KDZ updater using emergency mode but fail
>>>>>> current error displays:
>>>>>> WPARAM 100, LPARAM 500
I understand the LPARAM 4800 error appears if the modem was not disable.
Any suggestion?
just to bump the thread and also ask a question of my own
So my pc detects the phone, i can boot in all modes but sadly my screen just won't turn on.
Put it into fastboot mode it vibrates and i plug it into the machine and windows detects it i can happily do a KDZ in emergency mode and that finishes. I go to re-set the phone, it vibrates but i get no logo's and nothing else happens.
I can also flash my system using the fastboot stuff.... Any ideas or more info needed :\
x
What if the phone doesn't react to anything (computer USB, wall charge), isn't recognized by computer (although drivers are installed) and so isn't recognized by any program on the computer....
Doesn't turn on nothing just dead!
is there anything that can be done?

My Lg Gt540 Is Bricked
I have just upgraded to 2.3 but my phone is not loading boot animation so i flash my phone with KDZ updater with french v2o rom then out.kdz then
my phone doesn t turn on
Yesterday I flashed (CSE flash) v30a KDZ to recover my GPS which as having problems getting locks and it all went well, it seemed the GPS got back working.
Later I used the DP Root to root it and it went ok.
After using the DP REC (if required for evaluation, please inform), my phone rebooted and it showed me the following message:
ERROR : boot certification verify
[1040] ------------------------------------------
[1090]
[1140] Secure booting Error!
[1200] Cause : boot certification verify
[1250]

Then goes to this:

Pressing the power button for more than 13s I can shut it down so that I can try the Volume Up + connect USB, but then it just powers the phone on and starts the above stated.
By pressing the Volume down + Power and pressing again after the LG Logo shows up, I can go to the reset screen but at the finish it doesn't show the factory reset or TWRP, just starts the sequence of screens above.
By pressing the Volume Up on the Demigod Crash screen, it show the following message:
Volume Up is pressed : Jump to Dload Mode.

and stays that way, but then the computer recognizes the "LGE AndroidNet USB Modem" and "LGE AndroidNet Serial Port", no more LG stuff there, and the LG Flash Tool doesn't go past 4%.
On Ubuntu it recognizes the same devices, but doesn't get the partitions
Does anyone know any way so that I can get out of this?
Hi @darknessmessiah,
Any luck with your issue? I've received a strikingly similar result after attempting to flash the stock lollipop to my LG G2 801 from the T-mobile forum.

Hi there! Yes, I got to get it back... But it was this hard
Anyway there goes some tips:
After you remove the battery plug, you only need to put it back after everything is done.
You have to keep trying the short circuit until you get a new hardware called "Qualcomm hs-diagnostics 9006" and you computer recognizes a lot of disk partitions. The normal device my computer recognized was "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" and no tip out there worked.
When the computer recognizes the wrong device, remove the USB, plug it back and try again. One time it recognized one whole 32GB partition, but thankfully I didn't try anything besides removing the USB and try again.
After everything, I got Download Mode back and, after some tries (I've got some errors), got the flashtool to flash the ROM back.

infect you need to fix the download mod
i can fix plz contact me https://www.facebook.com/faheem.anjum2
Wow, that's miserably complicated. And to show you my naivite, I wasn't aware that one could enter download mode by plugging in the phone to a computer with a USB cord, and holding the volume up button as it started up. My phone successfully entered download mode and I was able to use LG Flash Tool 2014 to return my phone to Stock 4.2.2 using this thread and a KDZ I had long ago stored.
Thanks for the help though!

i have same probleme with my lg g F320L can anyone help ?
Helo
My Lg Leon H340n is hardbricked.
Do you have any idea to solve ?
Please Help me :C
Hi,
Can you start your phone in download mode?
Power off your phone, hold volume key up while connect USB cable to PC, release volume up key when you see Firmware Update text.
Then you can flash kdz files with lg flashtool 2014.
Or if you can't reach the Firmware Update text then what else message displaying on the screen?
Mega-bricked.
Hello. I see this thread is dead but, mine LG; this type, is so bricked the only thing I last remember I could identify it was that if I connected it to my Linux then it said something about it being in software mode.
Absolutely no key combinations work; I can't get into boot-loader or what; nothing, only way to see it's even "alive" is trough Linux's (while it's connected) "lsusb" which shows this:
Bus 001 Device 059: ID 1004:61f1 LG Electronics, Inc. Optimus Android Phone: LG Software mode
EDIT: Think I've tried fastboot and adb in this mode and no luck. Last thing before brick I remember was me messing with the system and probably pushing the wrong button or pulling the wrong cable in "demigod mode"..?
Any ideas?
My Lg H990 ds stuck on bootloop, the only mode that i can get to is fast boot mode .i know only fastboot mode is last hope for my phone alive.

Hi,
Does anyone know how to force EDL 9008 mode on the essential ph-1. Through fastboot the command reboot-edl does not put it into edl. Also attaching D+ and Gnd during power on of the USB cable also does not work. Was hoping someone knows the secret to forcing the phone into this mode.
Thanks

As I said in my post, I tried fastboot reboot-edl commands and it just reboots into normal mode. I also built the special usb type C cable that has a switch to gnd D+ on bootup to try and force the mode. I was looking for alternatives.

I have since tried to do
reboot-emergency
reboot-recovery
reboot-EDL
All these commands simple make the phone reset like normal. There has to be a way to force emergency download mode on this essential phone.
Hello
As I said in your previous publication, follow these steps:
Before you connect the phone to the cable, enter fastboot mode
Plug the phone into the cable Connect the black and green wire with some and do not separate them
In the phone scroll to the reboot bootloader and press the power button
The phone will turn off and switch to EDL mode
Then connect the phone to the normal cable means without shorts
If the phone is running in bootloader mode, try again
I hope you succeed in the process
I also will not give up and will try to fix the phone in eBay mode

Your phone must be different. I can do the exact same thing and my phone never goes to edl, it goes back to powered by android.
In edl mode
OK, I put my ph-1 essential in EDL mode by shorting the black and green wire just like in the youtube; Device Manager shows "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9003 (COM3)" under "Ports (COM & LPT)"
Am I really in EDL mode and if the answer is yes - now what I do?
why do you want to do in the 9008 mode? do you mean you can flash rome rom in 9008 mode?

Yes, the phone is softbricked in bootloop and unless there is a way to force flashing in fastboot this seems like the way to go.

The only way to flash anything in 9008 mode is to have the PH-1 programmer files, which have not been released or leaked.
If your phone is under warranty, Essential might help you (they seem to be helping people who got bricked while updating Q beta).

Any chance you could provide me with some sort of instructions or direction? I've tried several different versions of QPST to no avail now. On the advice of a redditor, I was directed to try the CLI version of emmcdl but I can't even find a windows compatible build of this.
I have nothing against exploring/reading/learning but it sucks not being able to even start. I'd love to know if I'm even just on the right track.
Further Advise Needed!

My Essential Phone is a hard brick now with no response at all (no logo, no light..). And when I connect it with my computer, it is recognized as 9008 immediately, I downloaded your file and fill them in the QFIL, but every time I click the "Download" button, the sound of USB devices unplugged appears, and it fails all the time with an information that goes
ERROR: function: rx_data:247 Error occurred while reading from COM port
ERROR: function: sahara_main:983 Sahara protocol error
ERROR: function: main:320 Uploading Image using Sahara protocol failed
Download Fail:Sahara Fail:QSaharaServer Failrocess fail
I have no idea why these arise, since I am confident the driver was installed correctly. I even suspect that is it even the real 9008 mode? I'd appreciate it if you could give me some advice on how to flash this ROM, tks!
