Hello, I have the same issue.
I rooted the phone and unlocked the bootlader, it had cwm 6.0.4.5 installed. the phone took an owa update. the symptoms are as follows:
the phone only boots to the cwm recovery.
I can not get into download mode trying the up or down volume. My pc refuses to install the driver for the d800 even though i can see it as a device in device manager. I have installed lLGMlauncher as well as the LGUnitedMobileDriver.
Thank you for any ideas you may have

Have you gone to device manager, update drivers on your device, let me choose and then pick the ( I cant remember the exact name but it has to do with media, maybe mtp driver. It will then mount you phone
download a Rom along with gaps and flash
This is the basics, as I am away from my PC right now, there are many guides in the general area, I believe.
Sorry I cant be of more help at the moment
easiest would be to go to the dev section and download one of the many kits to get you back on track though.
Sorry. Was traveling and in cebu now. When I get my internet running I will try to check the driver. I still can not get into downliad mode on the phone however. I think it isn't PC dependant
First time poster, long time user of XDA...I tend to lurk.
Anyway, I just rooted, TWRP'd, and downloaded the newest PA for my LG G2 (ATT) but when I went to wipe, I accidentally clicked internal storage. So I'm stuck in TWRP right now. I decide to try my hand at side-loading, but I get the error message of: error: device not found. I checked device manager and the G2 is listed as an "Other Device" with an exclamation point on it. I go to load the driver... Can't find one.
Does anyone have any idea what driver I can use so the system will recognize my G2? I'd rather not go back to stock just to re-root/recovery/install. I have all the current drivers from LG, but as this is the G2 in recovery mode, I don't know how to get it recognized.
Thank you, in advance, for any help!

If you're using windows 8 then you'll have to disable driver signing to install the adb driver. Google it.
Google universal adb driver (i think by koush). I had the same issue. I am on Windows 8 and didn't have to disable anything.
or if the universal adb drivers probably wont work you can try downloading the lg united mobile driver

Thanks for the responses everyone!
I actually faked the device by using PDA net. It installed a generic lg driver for my G2, then adb was able to recognize the device and side load after that.
Hope this helps someone in the future.

Thanks, it took me forever of searching on XDA to find this. Works great after faking the ADB drivers for recovery. I used some other ADB driver, from Google inc, I believe. Great work.

plz im in the same position i stucked in philz recovery what can i do step by step and in device manager i got my device with yellow mark on it
make sure disable driver signing then install http://pdanet.co/bin/PdaNetA4180.exe and while install select LG, finished.
I Am probably one of the biggest idiots on this site, My phone prompted me for an update so, like an idiot, I accepted the ota update. Okay, no biggie, you can fix that in the terminal. So i did the most idiotic thing, I cleared the system partition, and then I went to fix the bootloop into recovery mode, i entered the codes and then I reset, I didnt think anyting of it when it said no OS installed.. So i rebooted and it wont go past the lg bootlogo with the teal and green led. So am I basically just screwed or is there a way to fix it? This is my only phone and I can not afford a new one, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Have you tried this?

You could try putting the phone into download mode and using the LG Mobile Launcher. Make sure you have the most recent drivers.
Good luck.

Im about to install ubuntu so I can try this, but so far I havent been able to get it into download mode to my knowledge. It does however, make a sound when i attempt to , so that might be good. Thanks for the reply
The solution in the posted link does not require download mode. Just plug in to USB and follow the instructions. The LG software requires download mode.
Hope Ubuntu works for you.
Hi, guys.
Today, my OP5 decided to troll me. I was using normally him, when suddenly it started to lags pretty bad. I restarted and he continued to lags and freeze. I made a wipe cache via stock recovery (i didnt made any change at all in it, no unlocked bootloader, no root). That's when my nightmare begins. It begins to bootloop. Sometimes i was able to start the boot animation, but then it just restarts to the beginning. I tried a lot of tips, wiping cache, system, etc. Then, i left it charging. When i tried to turn on again, it worked like nothing ever happened to him. I made a backup of my personal data fast, scared to him suddenly restart again. After that, i decided to made a Factory Reset, clean up everything. When i did it, he started the lag and freezes again. I was at lost. That's was when i decided to use the official unbrick tool, to make the cleanest OP5 ever possible. I grabbed the archives from this link and followed this tutorial. When i was executing the programa, in the userdate.img, he showed a error. When i saw it, i just stopped and closed the program. Now, my OP5 is hardbricked. The only sign of life that i get from him is when i connect him at the PC. I can identify it as qualcoom 9008, but when i try to run the program, he just fail and show me error 258.
Plz, i need some orientations. I have been read things for about 10 hours and didnt found a solution. I live abroad for any oneplus tech center, and i believe, for the other posts that i read, that online tech support wouldn't help me a lot. I really don't like to make this kind of post but i am kind of desesperate. I dont have money to afford another phone
Again, sry to disturb you all. Sry if i broke some rule of the forum too. And sry for my bad english, i hope that i was able to communicate right.
EDIT: I just tried in another computer. Same error appears. :'(
Hummm why follow a Unbrick Topic with tools for ...3T ?
Maybe you have a encryption problem, all your Tools/Topic are so old for the actual versions (Oreo 8.X OOS / 8.1 OOS)
I advise to you (in the first time), to flash this TWRP (using fastboot, very simple) just follow this guide : here
If you can flash TWRP, your phone is not bricked, you will boot in TWRP:
- Format Data > tape "yes" > Reboot in TWRP
- Copy/Past xXx 10.0 ROM to test, install and xXx Rom will fix/install for you the best OOS Custom ROM for your OP5 with a great Aroma Installer.
If TWRP with this rom work perfectly, you wil able to restore a official stock OOS for sure, just flash original/stock recovery (fastboot), wipe all data/partitions, install your OOS rom and it's fine
I think @cidsantiago says they bootloader isn't unlocked.
He needs to know that unlock the bootloader implies lost all /sdcard data and also installed apps and settings) before start the TWRP install process...

I used the tools for 5. Just the procedure that i get from this topic. :T I am gonna try the method that you gave me now brb.
EDIT: Just tried this. My cellphone cant be recognized in fastboot devices. As a said, i am not getting any response for him, just when i plug it in the PC. So i wasn't able to unlock bootload or anything like that. I tried just to plug it and see if fastboot was able to identifying it, but it wasn't.

Wipe your device data from the stock recovery.
You loss the settings and downloaded apps but not requires to unlock the bootloader.

I can't access recovery anymore, as i said. The only sign of life that i get is when i connect it in the PC.
I guess i have to do something to restore the basics partitions of my cellphone. Like recovery, boot, etc. But i just have the official tool to do that. There is another way? Like transfering directly by the COM port?

I had the same exact problem with my old One plus One. Spent like 4 days trying to unbrick it. That msm tool did the fix for me. Also, in that link to the guide you provided, doesn't it flash the Chinese version of the OS? If that's the case, I don't think it was a good idea to do so lol

In one of the links, it had the OOS and the HOS. I tried to use the msm tool in one of them, but it didnt worked I'm gonna try the archives in this link that you gave me. It may work brb with updates.
Don't worry though, it happens to plenty of people. It happened to me as well, and everyone eventually fixes it. It is unlikely that it is a hardware problem, so just following the correct steps should get it working. Keep trying stuff out, it's very good that your computer recognizes it as a qualcomm port, as far as I know that's all you need to flash the necessary things in order for it to boot.
I am getting the same error 258 in this post. :T I posted there to see if the OP can help me. But thx for your help @Mash1ro

2 of the people had the same error as you, and one of them solved the issue by changing the USB port.
---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------
But don't use the same files and all that stuff, since that's for the 3T. Try to pick out the things that might help but use the files for the OnePlus 5 only
After try the unbrick procedure in 3 different PCs, using about 10 different USB ports, i still getting the same error in the same step. When downloading cache.img, he stuck in about mid bar, and shows me the warning: SendProgramCommand Failed, Error: 258". Besides that, he turns on the green led and stop being recognize by the PC. Then i have to hold power and turn off the green led. :T Maybe i can use a linux to access the partitions?

yeah... But it is kind of weird. He was running smoothly, until suddenly started lag and freeze. He didn't fall or any of that... I think is just a defective phone. Doesn't find another explanation to that.
I think your best option is to RMA the device through OnePlus. Since you haven't rooted it or anything, they should repair it for you.

Guys, in the end, i RMA my device back to the seller and gonna have a refund Thank you for your help. So sad that this phone came faulty :T
Best regards to you all!
I have a bricked LG G2 that is stuck in a boot loop.
I was running a custom rom and lent the phone to my ex-gf and she tried said yes to OTA update. Then instead of telling me she attempted the fix the phone herself and in doing so used TWRP to wipe backups/all data/everything.
I can get into TWRP. I can use adb sideload.
That is it. No recovery mode, No download mode.
Can't get device detected by qhsusb_bulk
I think I need to fix the stock firmware/image. LG flashtool doesn't work and I think that is because I cannot boot the phone into android and because I can't get into Download mode.
Here is a semi-revelant thread on XDA, I posted there but haven't had a lot of replies, I doubt many people check the G2 forums as its an old phone at this point, yet its still in perfect condition, has a 1080p screen and runs fast.

Which variant? D802? Which firmware were you using before, kitkat, lollipop, stock or custom ROM? PM me if you want, I have bricked and unbricked mine many times

D803
I was running a custom rom. I *think* it was lollipop.
Basically the phone sat in my desk for two years without use as I had a work from home job and could get by with a free app on my iPad, I lent it to my ex and this happened a few days later
I now need a mobile phone for a new job I am starting and this phone is still beautiful I would really like to use this instead of dishing out multiple hundreds of dollars
Not a problem to help. I've bricked my old G2/my wife's G2 not less than 10 times, and all gonna Ok later. If you has TWRP saved backups - then I can help unbrick it even if it stuck on "LG" logo! Can PM me foor details
As long as EFS is not wiped or you have a backup you can just flash a new ROM with TWRP right? Or flash a backup?
As long as you can access TWRP you can also connect to USB in case you do not have any ROMS stored on the phone and transfer them that way.
