I have a rooted Verizon LG G2 and have been trying to install a recovery mod. I somehow got rid of the stock recovery, but couldn't setup a new one. Now my phone is stuck on the fastboot screen. I've been able to get it to the stock recovery screen, but when it starts to wipe the drive, it just takes me back to the fastboot screen. I'm very new to this and haven't been able to figure this out through any other threads. I'm using Ubuntu. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm in the same boat. I tried to install TWRP using the Autorec but accidentally used the one for the LS980, and now I'm stuck at the fastboot screen. Did you ever solve this?

Code:
1. download fastboot
2. download laf.img boot.img aboot.img for your variant
(or download your kdz, download kdz/tot extractor and extract partitions --and rename them from boot_45465757.bin to boot.img)
* boot_45465757.bin is just an example.
3. fastboot flash aboot aboot.img
4. fastboot flash boot boot.img
5. fastboot flash laf laf.img
-> download mode should be back

This can be fixed .
1. You Will need to Download the Stock KDZ/TOT file for your phone , find the right KDZ or TOT file from here .
2. Now you would have to extract the KDZ/TOT file that you downloaded above using WindowsLGFirmwareExtract-1.2.1.0-Release.zip , this is available in the guide here.
3. Extract all the files fro the KDZ/TOT .
4. Now flash the extracted files , based on the fastboot method , which is described here.
Code:
fastboot flash aboot aboot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dbi dbi.img
fastboot flash laf laf.img
fastboot flash misc misc.img
fastboot flash modem modem.img
fastboot flash persist persist.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash rpm rpm.img
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.img
fastboot flash tz tz.img
Let me know if you need more help.
Why so many partitions. Be sure to flash same version as your current android is at least.
So this a guide so that you dont have to waste 10+ hours searching threads upon threads of info to find what you need to unbrick your lg g2. This guide will use multiple references and will go through every step that i had to do unbrick my lg g2 d800.
I am not responsible for making your phone worse of than it was or somehow permanently bricking your device, i am simply providing an instruction manual that worked for my situation.
Initial Symptoms:
1. Stuck in boot loop
2. will not go into download or recovery mode
3. when turning on the lg logo appears and then the screen becomes black but is still on
4. when plugging into computer 15ish hardrives try to mount and say they need formatting
5. LG detected as qhsusb_bulk in device manage

i recommend just installing ubuntu because it reduces errors and is faster.
After this you will more than likely have recovery and can move on restore your rom or stock image if you have download mode or twrp is working properly.
If, however, you get stuck into fastboot loop and the symptoms are:
1. will not boot
2. can get into twrp using recovery but twrp doesnt work properly
3. says when booting
fastboot mode started
udc_start()
reset
portcharge
4. wont go into download mode but for a second and goes back out of it
Fix:
kudos to @cms88168 for this fix, i will use his guide but will make some tweaks.

Make sure to download your versions aboot, boot, dbi, laf, misc, modem, persist, recovery, rpm, sbl1, and tz images here
and download his 7Z file and place all of the images into the extracted file, replacing his laf.img with yours.
next you want to hold shift and right click and open command prompt in the fastboot folder.
make sure your phone is connected and is in fastboot mode.
next we will be erasing and flashing all of the images back. do this one line at a time obviously.

you should then reboot and turn your phone off. Next plug it in holding the volume+ button and boot into download mode (it should work now) if not you might not have downloaded the right versions for your phone or something else is completely wrong and i dont know how to fix it.
Next you should revert to stock using this guide.

I was hoping this would fix my problem, but I'm in worse state now. I'm getting LG logo only and it looks like it's rebooting by itself. I can't get to any modes now except seeing the factory reset screen and hardware key control setting screen, other than that I can't get the computer to recognize the phone as it keeps on rebooting. Anyone got that and was able to fix it or do I just send in my phone for repair? I did download all the files for D803 which is my phone version. thanks.

I'm not sure if I even understand this. You're saying to hold volume + and plug usb in but that puts me in dowload mode that doesn't work it just stays on the dots part. And then using fastboot, I'm moving all that over. When I do that, it just says "waiting on device". If you could please help me out. I have the ls980 and it's stuck on the lg logo bootloop. and it's not recognized by any computer. I've tried abd but that doesn't work. I have an otg cable. would it be possible to do any of this via the otg?
Thanks. This actually worked for me after autorec had wrecked my D802.

Hey guys,
I have a LGD802 32GB it stucks on LG Logo and a green/blue LED is blinking. I can't get into Recovery or Download Mode, nor fastboot is working. Only thing what I can do is to push all buttons and get into the IMEI menue. Don't think this can help me anyway.
A few times ago the LGD802 only shows fastboot mode and so i followed the steps discribed in many threads.
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase laf
fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash laf laf.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
after that it only stucks on LG Logo.
I also tried the flashTool 2014 method, but phone will ne be correctly recognized by the OS. False Driver?
The Flashtool stops at 4%
Anyone can help me?
@DarkD1988 If the phone only showed fastboot mode then it might also have been the kernel that caused that,
does it says something on 4%?
Try to find the drivers or manually install them with device manager and see if it might works then.
Did you flashed the Lollipop rom?
Hi,
The Flashtool only starts if i use the diag driver (manually chosen).
With the automatically Installed Driver (USB Device Driver) the S/W Upgrade wont start 0%.
Yes Lollipop was flashed but after that the device became a hardreset.
At the Moment I cant get to the fastboot.
Do you know which driver is the correct one?
Hi I've seen threads around that have the same issue is there any help I can get.
I only have access to fastboot
my device will hang on LG logo
I've tried flashing recovery and it won't boot into it
I also tried https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70393155&postcount=3 and cannot flash misc, fota, but I can flash cache
- the error i get here is " remote: cannot erase this partition in unlocked state "
-- so i locked it with fastboot oem lock and fastboot flash lock and i get the same error with it declaring a " locked state " forcing me to unlock the bootloader again
I've attempted to flash .kdz files with no luck as im in download mode and the guides even say to put in download mode and LGMobile support tool isn't able to detect phone saying it's not even plugged in.
- is there a .dll file or something i need I've read twice in two different post maybe it's typos
I ran LGMobile support tool and it fails after downloading the .kdz file (my guess) not being able to put the phone in download mode is causing it to do so
I'm running out of ideas can anyone help?

Doesnt work for me. Say
writing 'boot'...
FAILED (remote: device is locked. Cannot flash images)
Im stuck in LG LOGO and i can´t access to recovery.
My V35ULM was soft-bricked after using LGUP to flash the Pie kdz (likely because the LGUP exe was not patched correctly). The download mode is corrupted and the phone always enters into fastboot mode. I'm trying to fastboot an external download-mode image by:
fastboot boot laf.img
However, the laf.img extracted from the Pie kdz cannot pass the boot security check. Can anyone who has this phone (LMV350ULM) with Oreo 10i ROM help dump a stock laf.img with LGUP? Many thanks!
I was able to get a stock laf.img using Elliott Mitchell's kdztools python scripts. However, fastmode boot laf.img still won't boot. Maybe only the image backed up from the original phone can work?
II guess you were using the partition dl mode to update your phone and do not chose them all?
any way
try this
plug in your USB, vol- + power or fastboot reboot to reboot your phone ,then immediately press the VOL+ before the v35 thingQ shows
by the way,even if use 9008\oct-p to unlock the v35.
not like the g7,boot xxx.img is still useless,
flash xxx_a XXXX.img can works
like flash boot_a patched_boot.img(magisk)
