d950
Im having issues with doing the OTA update for my Flex d950, says my phone is not registered. I am going to be upgrading from a rooted 4.2.2 to the 20b 4.4.2
If I do the CSE flash will I lose root? Has this also been confirmed to work on windows 8.1 ? i've been reading of people having issues. Or should I just do the normal flash instead of cse?

LG Flash Tool 2014 this application does not works offline! It need internet connection otherwise works incorrect! Look below attached picture.
Stuck In Download Mode.
Phone: LG Optimus G Pro E988, Android 4.4.2
Updated the phone about 2 months ago with the tool, today I tried to flash the same KDZ file but forgot to copy it to the LG Flash Tool folder, now my phone is stuck in download mode(I tried a number of key combinations to boot it into recovery), I thought it was the LG Support Tool problem, tried to install it, but a window pops up saying I have to connect to the internet and try again, but I was already connected, Downloaded the latest version 1.0.7.1 of the tools, now installation stuck at just about 5 %(attached a snap shot), please help my phone is stuck in download mod.

Yeah... This tool works incorrect. It brick my brand new LG G2 D802 32GB when I upgrade from V20B to V20G. The phone still is brick. I think unable to unbrick without send to LG repair service. I don't recommend use this application! I recommend use completely offline older method:
install on PC LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN311AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.11.3, install on PC LGMobile Support Tool (B2CAppSetup), control panel>show hidden files,folders, from folder UpTestEX_BY_BRIDE_2014>Apps copy the LGMLauncher and past it into folder LGMOBILEAX (Local Disk C:>Program Data>LGMOBILEAX), from folder UpTestEX_BY_BRIDE_2014>Apps copy the LGUserCSTool.exe and past it into folder B2C_Client (Local Disk C:>Program Data>LGMOBILEAX>B2C_Client), if possible in the phone run the USB Debug, if possible in the phone choose method of connection into LG Software, connect phone into PC and wait a moment for install drivers, run as administrator application UpTestEX_BY_BRIDE_2014, select KDZ file, select type: CDMA, PhoneMode: DIAG, CSE web upgrade test, Upgrade Start, Diffrent Country, Language
This method is a 100% offline-not need internet connection.
Good luck!
LG G2 stuck in Boot Loop after flashing firmware
Hi Guys i have a LG G2 which had been rooted and was running CM11 CyanogenMod Android KitKat 4.4.2.
I wanted to go back to stock, so flashed the phone using the LG flash tool 2014 which worked fine till it rebooted to the LG logo and rebooted again and again till battery went flat.
I can enter download mode by holding vol+ and plugging in the usb but can't do anything please could someone advise.
Thanks
For all of you with D802 model who bricked your device using this tool (like I did) use this one (link under) step by step and everything will be fine. This ia .tot method and you'll be 4.2.2 again.You just have to be able to enter download mode to save your phone with this method. It saved mine. Good luck

Am I supposed to not change language?
I'm stuck on phone screen (download mode) at 13%
Hi,
i used towelroot and used a programm to change my locale setting. I set it to German language and Antarctica location by mistake instead of German and Austria, and that terminated the Android UI over and over again. The phone instantly went into a loop restarting its UI. A reboot did not work, stuck on LG logo. I can enter download mode, but not factory reset.
Used your modded tool. It goes to 99% and then end with "abnormal program termination". It looks like the flashing worked, but the language setting is the same i guess because the phone is still stuck at the LG logo. I am using the normal flash, not CSE flash cause i want to rescue my data.
I leave the default setting cdma and diag. I tried Germany, different country and germany, republic of korea, and even korean, republic of korea in the window before the update starts.
Is there a way to force the Antarctica locale setting to go away without deleting all my data?
Got LG G2 32 gig, unlocked
I am on Sling 2.2.2 on F180L.
I want to go to stock..
Should I have to relock boot loader 1st or KDZ flash will automatically lock BL?
Stock KDZ file is 1.2GB. I assume this Tool won give any error?

LG G2 stuck
I was installing a new kernel using clockwork Rom Manager to reboot the phone in TWRP recovery, didn't know this was bad. So I had my G2 completely stuck on LG logo, no download mode, no recovery, can't even turn it off, then I tried LG mobile support tool, restored after many times a Rom, but when it boot it asks me some kind of PIN/Password, then I did the same using LG Flash tool by goind in download mode, but still the same, what can i possibly do? Thanks in advance
If you have download mode,look at my post #10. There is a link to solve your problem. It definetly solved mine and I only had download mode. Just follow steps 1by1. Don't know which version you have,mine is D802. I think it helps for D800/1/2/3
has anyone used this tool on LG-F370S, South Korea?

Empty "Language" list
Hi,
I have LG F70 D315.
I got an issue when choosing language from the "Language" list (see fig. attached).
Please give me a prompt on how to fix this issue.
Hi everybody!
I have Lg g2 D802 Baltics. Yesterday I tried to return to Stock KitKat via Lg mobile support tool and Flashtool, both of them didn't work, they just didn't find my phone in download mode. Then I decided to reroot and reinstall TWRP. The first was done and the second too, but unfortunately my phone restarted and got a Security error and LG logo and can't boot, just permanently restarts. I've already read a hundreds of articles like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 . The method written here isn't working for me because the Flashtool just can't find my phone when trying to install a firmware. So, any program like Lg support tool and Flashtool don't find my phone, so I can't do anything with my phone to get it to work. I'm facing i real problem for me and i'm quite shocked. So, please, tell me what to do, how to fix my phone. I tried a lot of thins, nothing helped. What to do?
I have a LG K8 350ds it had root and it was all right until LG asked to do an update on the cell phone and I forgot that it could not because of root, so bricko and it went into infinite loop and I can not get it already used LG Bridge and when it finishes the process it continues the same way, the LG Flash Tools of the error '' contact the system administrator '' already have the KDZ of the cell phone here that I got with the kappou method but I do not know what else to do. : /

Make a hard reset, maybe it helps...:
http://www.hardreset.info/devices/lg/lg-k8-4g-k350n/
FYI lg bridge doesn't format data hence your problem was not solved - so you need to make an additional hard reset. Lg up however in refirbish mode erases all thats necessary.
Never try to apply Android update on rooted phone if it's not custom ROM. It always screws up. Try this what gottlasz said
I have the LG G6 H870 single sim version, and it's a strange thing.
The Lg G6 remains locked on the LG logo, wait 15 minutes or more.. and does not go any further regardless of flashing method, LG Up or LG Bridge. Now it has the 11th global version installed. Using Uppercut and any version of Nougat starts right after the update. Any version of Oreo, flashed with LG UP or LG Bridge (LG Bridge detects that updating is required and proposes the V20b and installs it) remains stuck at the LG "Powered by Android" logo. It appear on Windows device manager, connected after boot like Serial device, so it's stuck in some Download Mode i think, and after pressing Vol down and power, it enter without problem on Download mode... pressing Vol Up and conecting cable in one second before reboot....
I tried both the bootloader locked and unlocked. The same problem every time. Oreo does not appear as OTA The check now for update message is: "You are using the atest software version for current OS".
Any idea is welcome. Please help!
I have the EXACT same problem.
Any help guys?

Still stuck on Nougat...it refuses to let me go back up to Oreo.
Tried numerous .KDZ of Oreo, numerous flashable zips of Oreo.
Do I perhaps need a different kind of .laf or boot.img etc?

Just use this LGUP and first post instructions from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/using-lgup-crossflashing-t3780969

Thanks again.

I have the same problem you described.
Could you give me a link to the dll file? I can't find a file matching my phone LG G6 H870. Always getting this error "please, install valid DLL package(*.msi). for the model"

Thank you very much!
For me this method also worked.
At the beginning I had the same problem as before (error about missing dll) but launching the application as an administrator helped.
PLZ help me .. I am stuck
I have a middle east version of android oreo
Lg wont update this version into android 9
So i asked the admin of lg firmwares which kdz file is appropriate for my version .. He said anyone will work on your phone so i chose the indian kdz
Now i followed the steps of how to flash using lgup and uppercut
Everything thing went fine .. It reached 100% completed and then when it restarted it got stuck on startup logo
What should i do plz??
I dont have a back up for my phone contents?
What should i do
Plz help
Note ;it didnt show the screen of upgrading the apps that usually show after using ota upgrades
Edit 1; i managed to return back to download mode
And entered lg bridge ..it said i have to fee up some space ?? How can i do that while i am o download mode ?
Try factory-resetting your phone. Also, I'm pretty sure you have to use the kdz corresponding to your carrier, even if it is unlocked.
