Good morning. I BELIEVE my V20 was still rooted when this happened. I gave my phone to a friend to use, she updated it when it said there was an update. After she updated and she restarted the phone then it started the bootloop. I cannot get into recovery and when I try to enter download mode then it does what you see in the video. Does anybody know what I can do. The only mode that I can get to is fast boot. Even doing a factory reset does not work. Thank you in advance for all of your help.

Is there no one who is able to help me with this issue?

You say you were rooted. Have you checked to see if you still have fastboot flash available? If you don't, then no, there is nothing you can do if the phone won't completely boot to download mode.
There are 3 ways to fix an Android phone:
1 - download mode (if you have a KDZ) -- but your phone won't boot into it
2 - recovery (if you have TWRP) -- You say it was wiped by the OTA
3 - fastboot (if you have fastboot flash available) -- This is your last hope.....
If you have none of those, then only LG can fix your phone.

I am still able to get in to fastboot but I am not super familiar with fastboot as I am with download mode and recovery. When I boot in to fastboot mode, how should I then proceed?
To suhridkhan:
The issue is that the download screen shows for about half a second and then bootloops. It is like this every time.

People have moved on from the v20. Only a few remain and apparently no one has had your issue. Sorry I couldn't help but don't give up, good luck
The engineering aboot was overwritten by the OTA, so no, there is nothing you can do except send the phone to LG ot hope that one of the firehose methods works.

Lg v20 us996 only booting into fastboot mode.
My phone is only booting into fastboot mode and bootloader is locked. It is booting into download mode for just a second and then it goes on device is corrupt screen. How to unlock bootloader now. I have requested unlock.bin file from lg but they are not able to provide this file for my phone bcz device id and imei are not matched. Seems like my phone is refurb and motherboard hasbeen changed. Lg developer said that they will update the device id and then provide unlock.bin after 10 days.

I had the same problem on a different phone if you go into the TW RP or CWM you should be able to do a factory reset that's the only way I was able to fix my other phone not being able to flash anything after brick so give that a shot and let me know what happens

They did but not for the SM-S920L. There is still no rom including stock for this phone.
I'm not sure what that rom is. It was posted in the dev forum and op offered almost no details. All I know is that the file name is SM-S920L3.tar and it weighs in at 1.4GB.

In that case they must have put it up just recently. Things are starting to look up for us after all.
Maybe, I'm not going to be the guinea pig here and risk my phone on some unknown rom without a custom recovery available to backup and restore my phone should something go wrong.

Thanks, man! I'm having a few issues that I can live with with my phone, but if this works ok, I might just flash it. Oh, and I spoke with a few Straight Talk CS reps and they say that neither Tracfon, nor Samsung are going to release a stock ROM for 5.0.2. Perhaps some day we'll get an update to 5.1.1.
Ok so I it flashed in about 3 minutes for me with a pass. I noticed a set bit warranty: cache and system. I pulled the battery and then powered back on and got this:

Edit: model number
I updated my att galaxy s5 using the chainfire for a rooted 5.0 and everything was awesome and then It was time to trade in my Galaxy so I decided to reset it to stock. I messed up by not clicking unroot in SuperSU and trying to restore using odin and stock firmware (4.4), now my phone is soft bricked. I can get it to the Odin Mode screen and the download screen but Odin fails on every attempt to flash a new ROM. I remember now that I believe it said if you flash to the custom 5.0 rooted rom that you can not return to 4.4 because it locks the bootloader to 5.0 or something. Am I screwed and have to wait for a 5.0 firmware file to be released or is there something I can do to fix this?
I believe you have to downgrade to a kitkat bootloader(4.4) and then flash the stock rom. Try that and tell me if it helps on flashing stock rom.
How would I go about downgrading?
Try this.

I'm assuming the chainfire root you mentioned was you using flashfire to flash the prerooted L rom since that's the only way in aware of, if that's the case you're fine to downgrade as long as you use the right file, which is pretty much as long as its for your model, the flashfire thread has the downgrade_to_NCE odin package which I can personally verify works fine to downgrade.

Yeah, I think I may of taken the oc4 update becasue flashing it with Odin didnt work. I DID however get it to work by flashing the OC4 Kernal and then afterwards flashing the G900A_OC4_Stock_ Partitions. However im not sure if everything is in working order now, certain apps etc. dont start up when clicked.
Everything seems like its working after a quick restart actually, and Root Checker somehow says I still have root.
I have tried to unlock it as suggested by oneplus and it will not do anything.
I go into fastboot mode after installing the drivers on my PC confirmed I can see my device and when I executed unlock it did wipe my phone but didn't unlock the bootloader.
Anyone knows why it doesn't work or what I'm doing wrong?
BTW I have updated to marshmallow manually. This phone was never unlocked or rooted.
Thanks in advance.

Best bet, run the usual restore to Lollipop factory image using the guides on this forum, and then try to unlock. It will probably work then. You should have unlock before you installed the experimental beta release of Marshmallow ?

Thanks, I'm going to Google it and try it out. I wasn't planning on unlocking it but when I saw that cm13 got the fingerprint scanner working I decided to do it as I miss my opo with cyanogen. I didn't expect to run into this issue as I have unlocked many phones before without any problems.

I also downloaded a fresh one.. Not sure if that did anything but.. If you try and fastboot boot the recovery and get a btb error( I was) I was told that the boot IMG was messed up to get that error? Don't know.
Wow after 2 hours of softbrick I got it to work, did my nand backup and now going to look for a good cm13 rom.

Were you rooted or just on plain old stock?
Best way I know to fix is via a PC, using Odin to load stock firmware from Verizon.
Or, you may be able to get a company Verizon store (not a verizon reseller) to reflash it.

It's on a Un- rooted stock Verizon 4.4.4. Going to Verizon probably out the question, finished contract and went to net 10. I can get phone in download mode (volume down, power, home button) I tried Odin but it failed also. But I may have been doing something wrong. Not real knowleable on these things. Does anybody have a link to stock Verizon 4.4.4? Another thing, my pc is not recognizing my phone now also.

You can get stock 4.4.4 from www.sammobile.com, you have to join to download firmware, but it's free.

How I got it to work was to use the stock 01 lollipop Rom not the 06.I think that's what you call them.

I suppose that might work, it doesn't actually list recovery roms. But as you can see my device is in download mode ?
Maybe I just need an unbranded stock rom?

well, you have it in download mode in that pic, so it seems that youre wanting to flash a tar file via Odin. The pic is a bit blurry, but it looks like a G900F, is this the case? Does it not boot? What are you trying to accomplish? Whats the symptom?

I had downloaded the file but when I rebooted I got that? I thought when using twrp after I chose the downloaded file, it would reboot with the new Rom?

i mentioned it earlier from what i could see in the pic
Yes I think I just need a Rom now for Samsung galaxy s5 g900f. I can't seem to find it, the ones i tried downloading were ridiculously slow eta 8 hours and keep falling.
I've installed Odin and the Samsung usb drivers on my pc.

well, if youre able to boot to download mode, then you might just need TWRP and a custom ROM. sammobile.com/firmwares (specifically https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G900F/ for your phone) is THE reputable place for tar.md5's, but is known for its slow speed and if your computer goes into hibernate at all, the downloads will fail. But, you might be able to get away with flashing TWRP, putting your choice of ROM on to your sd card and installing it from there.

androidfilehost is always a good alternative, but finding one can be daunting. The G900F is a very popular phone, so it shouldnt be that tough to find actually
here is a german 6.0.1 tar.md5. Should have whatever other language youd need in it as well

Ok So I tried using that rom with Odin. But it seems to have failed. And it tells me to use "kies" recovery.
I even searched that And found the software, but it wouldn't run on Windows.
So just what am I doing wrong here?
I downloaded Odin installed it, ran it under ap I chose the German Rom listed above. After a while it appears next to ap so I start the process off and eventually it says FAIL on Odin and my mobile says I need to go into recovery with kies.
Uhm this is starting to annoy me now [emoji15]
