Restored KK ROM over LP Bootstack - Only Download mode :( Please help! - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I stupidly restored a KK ROM over Nougat ROM without flashing the KK baseband back. As a result I get secure booting error. I now only have download mode only, No recovery. I can't connect via ADB to flash recovery as my Device manager shows that "LGE Android MTP Device" cannot start. I've installed the latest LG drivers. If I run adb devices then no devices are listed. Am I missing something as to why download mode doesn't find my phone?
I still have download mode so do I need to re-flash TOT file and if so which firmware is it? I have a D802 32GB but no idea if its SEA variant or what! Does the Firmware matter so long as it's any 32GB image? I'm worried that if I flash the wrong firmware it's truly hard bricked!
Please help....
Cheers
Ryan

You can't run adb commands if your phone's in download mode so I wouldn't worry about that. As for the variants, any one of the d802 kdz's will work but if you flash a different one you might have issues with 4g connectivity. The box your phone came in should say which region it is, maybe you just need the open eur one from this list http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G2/Stock/Lollipop/32GB/

Thank you. I've now been able to flash the correct TOT and rooted and installed nougat ROM. The problem I've got now is that the phone is stuck in TWRP. I've flashed new ROM and recovery again but no matter what I do it just keeps booting into recovery. Any idea how to fix?
Thanks for your help

If download mode shows, go back to stock with lg flash and .tot firmware file. It will reformat/rebuild all partitions. This is best because you may have a corrupted partition. You can re root after doing this.

[Q] Soft bricked D801 unrecognized

Hey everyone I'm quite new to android, and I'm currently stuck in Download Mode after trying and failing to install Twrp
I was previously Rooted, tried to install Twrp via Autorec, however when I ran the app it soft-bricked my phone and put me into Fastboot mode.
I followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2476972 method, and got back to Download Mode.
I am currently in the middle of returning to stock through http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2432476 using the .TOT method.
I'm fairly close to repairing it but my only issue is that I cannot get my computer to recognize my phone. Neither in Device management nor adb devices anymore.
Therefore I cannot change the port to COM 41 to flash the .TOT file.
I constantly tried installing drivers for the phone both 3.10 and 3.08 but still no recognition can anybody help?
Some more info about the phone:
it's the D801 variant but its on Wind (Canada) not T-mobile
it was previously Rooted
it did not have any recovery software installed
no roms had been flashed previously.

Try to restore your phone using the official LGMobile Support Tool. Just switch on normally the phone, plug it to your PC and wait for your kdz to be downloaded. Once it done, it should install the kdz by itself. Then factory reset your phone (if needed) as it should ask you some pin/password.
Hope it'll help you as it did for me!

First double check that you can enter recovery. Hold the power button until the phone completely shuts down. Wait 5 seconds. Then hold power + volume down until it vibrates and LG logo shows up. Release both buttons. Then press them again quickly and hold them. You will enter recovery. Or the phone my offer to do a factory reset which btw won't happen since it will go to recovery by pressing the power button 2 more times. If you have TWRP then you are good. Install ADB on your PC and the LG drivers. When you have ADB, Download (check everything) related to JB and KK. Reboot the PC. Connect your phone with the cable. The PC will not recognize the phone. You have to use a little trick in the device manager first:
Press the windows key + pause/break and click on device manager. Right click on the faulty device with the yellow exclamation mark and hit properties then update driver. Click on the second option then from the list search for ADB or ADB device or something along those lines. Select the LG driver and hit OK. Unplug the phone. The phone must be in recovery still. Inside recovery hit advanced and look for ADB sideload. Check both checkboxes on what to wipe. If you don't already have a rom you want to flash, then use this one. It is a very stable and fast one and I only recommend it because I had the same issue as you and it worked for me. Download that rom and rename the zip file to rom.zip and copy it to the location where your adb.exe file is. You will also need the KK baseband modem otherwise auto rotation won't work. Search for it on the D802 dev thread. Now on your PC, open a command prompt inside the directory you copied the rom.zip (shift + right click) and hit "open command prompt here". Type in:
adb devices (this will ensure that your connection with the phone is alive. If you see some weird string then it works. That is the name of the phone btw)
adb sideload rom.zip

Installation will now begin. You are saved.
Of course all the above only applies if you have acces to recovery. But I wonder how could you screw that one up. It's literally a simple apk installation and a 1 button solves everything app. If you don't have recovery you can still try to save your phone with download mode. Here is a link that maybe helps but I havent tested it
And one last thing: Don't use Flashtool.
thanks man. But unfortunately no recovery. The phone ONLY goes to download mode.
I will try to flash .kdz because tot method didn't work. If .kdz fails then i don;t know.... expensive paper holder

Have the same issue on D802 G2 here. How'd you solve it?

No download mode, no OS, YES Recovery mode

Unclear of phone history.
Phone model: D803 Canadian
Current issue:
Can NOT go to download mode.
CAN go to TWRP mode ver 2.8.4.0 installed by pressing VOL + and VOL - and Power button, all 3!. Shows some chineese characters first before going into TWRP.
I am NOT able to flash custom roms (tried cm12-d803, aicp-kk-d803) I get assert failed: run_program("/system/bin/loki.s h") == 0
I have tried the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620733 [[SOLUTION] LG G2 VS98012b Problems With Loki (loki.sh) + [ROM][UNOFFICIAL]CM10.2], but no go..

Did you tryed to cleanflash? Btw why is your download mode missing
It shows chinese characters before going to twrp. I don't get it why it is like that
Does it show the chinese characters and then boots into twrp? If so maybe try to flash also later 2.8.4.0 recovery from blastagator.
Try to google the right rom for the D803 Canadian version cause I've read that some D803 models need to flash roms from another model instead.

Well maybe outdated loki or yeah I can't tell you the truth exactly, Ehhm... Maybe you have to flash the bootloader files again? Try to find bootloader files for your phone in a flashable zip. Maybe that works
First try to find alternative things before what I said about the bootloader, cause flashing the wrong things can harm it.

I borked it further by trying to install older recovery using dd command while in TWRP. Ended up with secure boot error ONLY when I try to press all three buttons, and then I get QDLOAD_BULK in device manager. Device continues to boot normally if I press the power button.
Tried to use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 [FIX] NO Recovery mode, No download mode, after OTA on rooted LG G2, but wouldn't work in Ubuntu.

So used http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/unbrick-lg-g2-qhsusbbulkqualcomm-9006-t2939627 Windows application, and selected D802, it failed on a few items, but gave me download mode and Security Error on normal boot.
Used LG Flash tool KDZ flasher to flash v20 Rogers, but failed at 40%. Tried again, still failed.
Used LG TOT Flash tool, and was successful!
@SaHiLzZ Nice that you fixed your problem on your own:good: Have fun further with it:laugh:

How can i try tot method without going to download mode ? as i said phone only have stock recovery , Yes there is an option in stock recovery "Apply update from ADB" by selecting that i can run adb sideload commands. And i can flash any zip rom from that option . I tried several rom's using this option but installation aborted in middle .
Does device manager in Windows recognize your device? In Tot method you do port settings to flash kdz. Also you can give it a try for LG pc suite.
