It should now download the firmware (about 2gb) and flash it - this may take some time.
This is needed if you stuck in a bootloop after the flash is done:
Factory reset (this wipe your data and sdcard):
1. Turn the phone off.
2. Press and hold the Power and Volume down button.
3. When the LG logo pops up let go for a second and press the combo again.
4. You'll be prompted to press the Power button 3 times to wipe the device.​

I would hate to have to use this, but wow what a good find. Thanks for contributing.

I used this method last night and it didnt mess with the storage at all. They don't even have a 16gb G2 so who knows. Also are you sure you are not mistaken cause this method doesnt wipe data.

I know it does'nt wipe data, but it reflashes recovery, and in my case something went wrong. But Lg DO sell D802 as a 16 gb model!

Can anyone using this method please post results. Just wondering if there is more success with this method as opposed to the other method. Thanks.

I don't understand how could this be, you downloaded the specific firmware for your device (using your serial number)...
Can't you just try to flash it again ?

I have reflashed it 5 times The problem was that it asked for some kind of password the first time (not the pin). So I did a factory reset. Now even TWRP says that my storage is 10.66 gb :/

Which password exactly ? when ? in the process of flashing ? the OP mentions no stage in which you need to give password...
What are you going to do now ? your device is not rooted, so you can replace it under warranty, no ?

It did not say what the password was for, just asked for it. It came up after the phone had booted, but before i could see the lockscreen. I will wait a couple of weeks, to check if someone else gets the same problem, or if it is fixable. Otherwise i will hand it in on the warranty since there are not traces of root.

Why should a password appear at that stage ???
If you went through all of the flash process successfully, booted successfully and only then did a factory reset (when you saw that password), I see no reason to blame the factory reset that you did. This is something to do with the flash process. Maybe this is kind of a punishment that LG unleash on those who use this process ? seriously, why on earth would anyone try to flash his LG2, if it wasn't to get rid of root ? I also don't understand how the password went away after you did hard-reset, since the device was "hard-reset" when you did that flash. You said that you re-flashed about 5 times, did that password appear after each of those 5 times ?

Same issue here.
I also got the question after I used the software to enter my encryptionkey. Wich I didnt have.
So I had to hardreset from the recoverymenu (volume down + pwr), then I suddenly had 10.77GB left instead of 26.77GB or something similar.
Annoys me pretty darn much at the time beeing!
I did use my IMEI, not my serialnumber and model. I'll try to use the serial and model this time around, and see if there are any differences at all in doing so.
And yes, it does say 32GB on the back. So we're not mistaken it for a 16GB-model
And it does say that the model is the 32GB when I check the hardware-info on the android itself.
Maybe this has something to do with me using the adbcommand for mounting storage incorrectly?
I thought however it would be reset when I used the LG Mobile Support Tool to hardreset everything though.

Will this work with the AT&T model D800?
Also does this remove all traces of root to the point where you get your warranty back?

what was the solution to this...

Does this work with the TMO versions?

The windows application keeps getting a Windows error and closing shortly after the process begins. Any tips?

I would prob stay away from this if i was anyone else....Because it must be messing people phones up and changing the storage capacity

Lollipop 5.1 for Shield Portable released!

Anyone use the 5.1 xposed on this yet? Waiting to see if it works before I update.

Yeah, I downloaded it and tried to install it. I forgot I had installed a custom recovery, so it failed. I reinstalled the factory recovery and now I'm waiting for the update again.

Does anyone have the img file for lollipop? I don't know why my updates not showing up.

Ok, seems the old CWM from KitKat is working. Also SU 2.46 does.
Sadly no Miracast anymore.
A few games apart from the mentioned ones in the link above won't work too: ARC Redux (more to come)

Did anyone catch the OTA. I have the factory Image for 103 but wont flash due to the "insufficient memory" for the system.img and the userdata.img I had similar problems with the tablet and only updated via the OTA. My system isn't showing as an update available.

You can try flashing the factory Image from update 103.
It's available now too...
https://developer.nvidia.com/gameworksdownload
Just make an account (it's free) and set the filter to "SHIELD".
Here you go.

Hi !
It seems my CWM is nit "compatible" with OTA 103, i get all sort of errors in CWM when trying to execute OTA update.
Do you have any hint where to download a compatiple CWM or stock recovery ?
(Or any smarter solution for that problem of course).

Hmm, i "solved" my Problem by flashing 5.1 with Linux instead of OTA...
Greetings,

Problems I can confirm are, cant install or update anything from the play store because of "insufficient space" when I clearly have 2GBs and a 64GB micro SD card, its alot slower and Apex Launcher is now utterly terrible with the new update.

After trying to install it won't boot up. Then I tried to fastboot but I'm getting an error saying target reported max download size of 643825664 bytes error: cannot load 'recovery.img' : No error .
Any ideas

I disabled "Google" so the Shield button does not activate it but still the Game Mapper is not showing up. Thats horrible, dis anyone manage to get back the Game Mapper ?

To enable it open the app / game then hold down the start button until it pops up, If it didn't work then read down...
for me it's working perfectly i think because i flashed it using a computer (or maybe a factory reset should do the trick) if you're going to do it make sure you do a backup in the external sdcard because everything in the internal sdcard will be deleted I'm not responsible for any lost file or any damage, I'm not trying to scare you but I will help you if I can
By the way I disabled "google" and still the gamepad mapper is working fine so "google" has nothing to do with.

How did you guys use a computer to flash it? Sis they release the img? I would like to flash it with my computer because I still haven't received the ota.

Did they release the img? How did u flash it with a computer, please help me because I didn't receive the ota and ima fan of lollipop.

All of these have been brought up on the Nvidia forums, so yes, they can be confirmed. I would like to add, that the volume changes dynamically depending on the sound being played In some games and emulators, I noticed that the sound would get quieter and louder without touching anything. I had Virtua Racing for 32x running in Retroarch and the volume dropped and raised in the same places during the demo mode every time, like it was done on purpose.
Is it just me, or does it seem like Nvidia is trying to de-Nvidia the Portable?

Flashing TWRP custom recovery and then using its file manager to delete the wondershare apk from the phone might help.
Also, files from the internal memory cannot be recovered if deleted. They can, but the process seems to be more complicated than just using an app. That's the way android is.

That is called download mode.
The key combo for recovery is volume up, power button and home button.
TWRP has install instructions on their site. There are other, simpler, methods. Like the Odin method.

That was the stock recovery.
Anyway, deleted stuff from the internal memory cannot be recovered as easily as from the sdcard.
From now on maybe use Google Photos. It has an auto-backup feature that can backup photos to the cloud.
You have unlimited storage space for photos up to 16 megapixels. Just make sure to select "High Quality" in the settings.

A2017G - Switched to USA band

So yeah, I messed up big time.
I don't know what to do anymore, I tried a normal factory reset, didn't work.
For the moment, I switched my SIM to the second slot but I think I don't have 3G anymore.
I'm not rooted, have stock recovery and my bootloader is locked.
Also I don't have any backup of any partition.
Please help me I'm so screwed...

What did you do?

I went into the MTK test menu and pressed USA band.
It overwrote my baseband on my first SIM slot.
Also I'm on B06.

Did you manage to get your 1st sim back to work?

Have u tried flashing a full .Zip that also contains the modem BLOB? Like the B09 zip
Gesendet von meinem ZTE A2017G mit Tapatalk

So yeah I managed to get it to work again, forgot to update the thread.
I zeroed the modemst1 partition with a dd as only my first sim tray was affected and after a reboot the problem was fixed.
Flashing a full zip didn't work, the partition was damaged and by zeroing it out, the modem hardware regenerated it.
Thanks for the concern!

Hello, can you please explain in steps what you did to fix it? I did the same thing by accident and now I have no connection to the carrier of the sim

No prob.
Save your EFS partition via TWRP beforehand.
Connect your phone to your PC and go to an APB window
Then type:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst1
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst2
That fixed for me. To be sure your IMEI are still there right?
Cause if you don't have your IMEI anymore I'm quite sure you're in bad luck because that method won't fix your IMEI but it will fix the baseband.

Thank you very much, i fixed it! First i unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP, then i typed these commands in the TWRP advanced/terminal and they worked like a charm. Thanks again

You were fast!
No problem I've been here before, feels good to be able to help!

Hello.
I did the same thing :-/ went to secret menu with some code which I found ... and chose USA BAND. Now, I don't have 2G/3G on SIM1 slot.
LTE (4G) seems to work.
I moved my SIM-card in SLOT 2 and there I have 2G/3G/4G. But, in that second slot I use SD-CARD so I want to fix my first slot.
Is there any easy way to fix that?
I am on stock A2017G v.B10, no root, no twrp, and I don't want to lose my warranty
Thanks in advance for any help or info.
Best regards

Seems like after installing OTA possible behaviours are: either the same request for reset, or bootloop.

Hi,
All I did was go into fastboot using the power and volume shortcut, and than I connected the device to my laptop and issued the command:
fastboot reboot recovery
(naturally using the SDK Platform tools)
After that, the phone started working again. Although there is no reasonable reason it should have worked. I was surprised enough so that I decided to take the effort to create an account here and share this for others. But again, maybe it was pure luck, YMMV.
Will be crossing my fingers for you.

I've tried to update and got the "Can't load Android system. Your data may be corrupt" messege. Tried again a few times, until the phone reverted back to the previous version and said it couldn't install the update. No October update for me. =(
