The phone (AT&T version) failed installing the Fi Android 9 update (following the instructions for LGUP modded) and after that the phone is now stuck in fastboot mode and can't enter download mode with the volume up and power button combo.
Am I out of luck or is there a way back to a functional phone?
Need help

To gain download mode with my AT&T variant all I did was hold volume up while plugging in usb that was already attached to PC.
Hmmm.

Yep, that did work at first when I was able to attempt the first flash in LGUP, but after it crashed the phone was stuck in Fastboot and would default back to fastboot even when I held the buttons for download mode. And now, the phone is stuck in Firmware Update mode. :crying:
Update: Phone has been fixed, got in contact with (motogvasyag) from XDA who helped me get back up and running. $20 well spent.

Same fastboot loop problem for my V35 after LGUP flashing with Android Pie. Did you send your phone to that guy or was the phone fixed remotely?
Hi there, the phone was fixed remotely via Teamviewer. He just had me install Octoplus pro, USB Network Gate and then a patched version of LGUP.

Hi everyone
I have a Videotron LG G2 ( D801). I was running stock 4.4.2 stock + rooted but i could not acces recovery, so i download AutoRec from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715496
i grant the SU permision and everything goes ok, i try to go to the recovery and it gets stuck in the fastboot mode, there i cant do anything ( no recovery no normal boot,) i only can go to the hardware key configuration and to the hard reset, but i can not reset it ( it goes right to the fastboot mode)
I have tried several methods to flash stock but everything gets stucked when i try to connect my cellphone in download mode to the pc, it doesn't detect it ,o there's no progress bar or anything .
Yes ,i have the lg drivers.
EDIT: After some research i managed to get the download mode working, but my pc does not recognize it. If i manage to make my pc recognize it everything will be ok
Thank You.

I sugest you contact lg to repair it. They have a flat rate repair and they are relatively fast ( i sent my phone on monday and i got it 7 days later).
I paid 101 CAD ( including taxes) and the postage (13$) wich is not that much for a phone that's worth 500$.
I recently got my hands on a bricked LG G2 D800 because i thought i was deemed unbrickable. I got the device the backlight showed life and that was about it. i managed to somehow get (this method i think) it to boot to the LG logo and than it jumps to fastboot mode.
Yea me!!! I got fastboot and this phone is as good as fixed. NO! fastboot does not work. It will absolutely not execute a command besides "fastboot devices" to which it brings up a fastboot device. Since i got fastboot my plan is to follow this thread to recover the device. i updated all drivers that i need for this device, nothing. Plain and simple, there is an issue getting fastboot to execute command. the commands appear on the device but it doesn't advance further.
Download mode. Yeah i get the download mode that I get is a "security error" so its not the traditional download mode. if i get download mode i can flash a .tot right? Wrong. Fails due to "model information check". i got the phone to appear under COM41. The .tot file is 'LGD800AT-01-V20c-310-410-FEB-02-2014+0.tot'. Drivers does not seem to be the issue at hand, unless maybe its the ADB/fastboot drivers which i also updated to newest version.
The next thing im contemplating if this method is worth the shot. I have it booting to fastboot. I will probably do this since its probably the only thing left to try. Going to set up linux now so i'll report back.
Any help/insight will be appeared and properly thanked for.
I also got security errors on an 802. I was about to leave the phone in download mode and ran the LG Mobile Support Tool to perform an upgrade recovery to get a stock LP ROM onto the phone.

I just downloaded the LG Mobile tool from LG Canada. Just search for the d802 and download the program. The program should detect your phone and download the correct firmware.

I actually have the d802 and it worked with the LG mobile program from the Canadian website.

I restored my phone using Win7 and I think there are some LG programs that do not work properly with Win8/10. I think one tool is the flash tool.
Does anything appear in Win10's device manager when the phone is connected?

This is not a how-to! I just want to inform everyone that our LG Nexus 5X has a download mode just like all other lg phones.
Instructions: 1.Plug USB cable into pc 2. Hold volume up and power at the same time and plug phone into usb that's already connected to your pc.
Like I said this is not a how-to so use Google and your brain to get the kdz or tot stock nexus 5X files and convert accordingly.
I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone but I hope this helps anyone out that was not aware. After all xda is all about sharing right ?

Well I got into it by pressing power and vol up after the phone took 5 minutes to boot back up after using a move to system an updated google play app.. Guess the move did not work. And had a hard time getting back into recovery to reflash a saved system image. But there is not much info on what else this mode is good for.. Something about not booting up the CPU but still able to flash? If so then those with problem N7 updates might be able to use this mode to clear the flash and upload a fresh firmware file to get their phones back in working order.
where we can find the official LG Nexus 5X kdz firmware or TOT? I mean not the one from XDA, but the official from LG. Tried searching but not yet found it.

Man, I'm in the boot loop nightmare and am hoping there's a tool from LG that can reflash recovery using download mode. I have tried every way I can find to do that through fastboot, but it won't work. Won't boot to recovery, which is why I want to flash one. It's probably hardware toasted (some research shows this is a problem on this and some other phones using same chip), but thought I'd try everything before giving up on it. It's 2 months out of warranty. :-\
stuck in bootloop
my phone nexus 5x. It is stuck in bootloop and i haven't activated the usb debugging. I have tried entering into download mode but still it not going into download mode. What should I do?

Nope. What kills me is these are still being sold by some carriers... knowing full well they are only good for a year+enough time to expire your warranty.
Hey guys, I have the T-Mobile 6T, unlocked and rooted, worked perfect until today.
Today it took the 9.0.5 OTA, it downloaded, installed, rebooted and left me with
"<!> BUILD VERSION and HW VERSION IS NOT MATCH"
Any chance someone can help?
I can't get it into recovery or anything.
The MSM download tool will help you.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...t-mobile-oneplus-6t-msmdownloadtool-t3868916/
I had hoped that it would. Unfortunately, I can't get it to work..
it seems that the phone just keeps rebooting before the tool can actually do anything.
The most I get is "Start download firehose binary" and the the phone disconnects.
Next is "Sahara Communication Failed."
after a few dozen more tries, I got a bit more. Now it says "Images do not match the phone!"
Try restarting into qcom mode as well as plugging into diff USB ports. Mine was doing that as well and eventually was able to get it to work.
How do I get into qcom mode?

Hold Power, Vol up, and Vol down. Screen will be completely black but phone will be recognized in device manager and will give you a COM port.
Also make sure you're using the Tmobile MSM Download Tool and not the one for international version. See link above that I posted.
Looks like it was the usb cable.
but I'm still stuck at "Images do not match with the phone!"
This is the T-Mobile variant, flashed with the global rom.

No problem. There's two tools in the guides section and the threads have similar names so it's easy to get mixed up.
In the future if you're going to international 9.0.5 or 9.0.6 make sure to use the full rom and not just OTA.

I used the international version on mine (T-Mobile 6T) since was in software and hardware error. You don't have to come back to TMobile software mandatory.

I've tried the different tools to no avail. also holding power, vol up and down will only go into fastboot mode. I believe just holding vol up and down is the qcom mode and inserting the usb c cable after about 10 seconds of holding those two buttons. otherwise the device will just keep rebooting into fastboot
In the beginning I wanted to upgrade my device to 9.0 ( Korean version ) then when i Update my phone Through LGUP show error message (Approximately 75%)
Then I turn off the phone Then when I want to get in Downloading mode Is directed to fastboot
so I stuck in fastboot
please HELP
Try to force reboot via holding power + vol down for 8 seconds.

Try draining the phone's battery via otg, then hold vol up and plug in usb to computer to download mode.

V350ULM10i
Amazon version
Now everything is clear.
Try holding and not releasing volume - and power while the phone boots and reboots into fastboot 6 times in a row then release only Vol- while still holding power - phone will change active boot slot and will boot into slot _b (if it was bootable before of course).
If this does not happen then your only way to restore it is via JTAG.
Contact this guy.

Yes, I know - you have 75% Korean pie with leftovers from Amazon Oreo (your abl misc and ftm partitions are still from Oreo while the rest is from Pie).
You can enter into 9008 mode for JTAG flashing so just contact the guy and ask him to flash to you back amazon LAF partition, afterwards you will have properly working download mode and you can restore the whole amazon kdz.
@vlad48 I am in the same situation, however mine is the AT&T variety, I tried swapping to boot_b a couple times and no luck. Is my only option to do the 9008 mode for JTAG flashing?
E: I have backups of Boot_a/b, abl_a/b, and xdl_a/b if that is worth anything. However my phone isn't detected by LGUP anymore. I was on oreo 8.0.0 with the july 2018 security update.
Yes - the only way apart from sending it back to AT&T is to flash back your Oreo partitions via JTAG - in your case easiest way will be to re-lash US Open KDZ.

What variant do you have?
If you're running AT&T firmware, you don't have fastboot flash commands.
You have to convert to another firmware via Dev Patched LGUP.

I'm going to look into that one. Thanks for the recommendation. Also, I was able to use LGUP to flash the Korean KDZ. It seemed to work fine, and does now. It flashed perfect, my data was intact until I had to restart my phone a while later and then it was all gone. Looked factory out of the box. However it is smooth as a baby's bottom now.
