Just got this phone less than 12 hour ago.
I have searched everywhere but cannot find any answers.
So first of all, I have rooted, and unlocked my bootloader. I then proceeded to install CM 10.1. Install went perfectly, but when I restart the phone, the LG splash comes on for less than a second and goes straight to a backlit black screen. No matter how many roms I try to install, they all do this..
I have installed LGNPST but when it recognizes my phone, it goes into emergency mode and under DEVICE it says "Unknown"
I have all of the drivers for my phone
If anyone could help me and say what is going on I would greatly appreciate it. I have looked on these forums for atleast an hour before I decided to post this thread.
I have the E971.
Thanks all

Will do, give me a few seconds to download it.
Would anyone help me get the appropriate KDZ tool that I can use that actually has rogers? The ones I have do not have it. Nor my phone model
You'll be fine. LGNPST/KDZ will work.

Download the Rogers 10d from here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=20#rogers
LG Optimus G E971/3/5
Thanks guys. For some reason, the KDZ updater wont let me choose the file to update/ Instead of the yellow folder to locate the file, the text box is empty and the button to find it is no where to be found...
try a different computer. i'm surprised that i even have to say that.
On the other computer the program crashes :S
In that KDZ updater folder, there is another executable msi file I believe that you may need to install first.
LG Optimus G E971/3/5
Yup use the KDZ method to fix. If you're on rogers (e971) you need to get the kdz from
lg-phone-firmware.com then scroll down and download version 10d.
You can also download direct from LG if you can get the link.
This post links to the original NEW JB update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2196742
ALWAYS FLASH CUSTOM ROMS FROM 10D
Run the msxml.msi or get the microsoft xml pack from microsoft.
Run the LG Software from the website to install ADB access for windows.
Put your phone into download mode and run the KDZ updater program.
Wait. If you get a bootloop do a factory reset.
Better tutorials are available on here you just have to look around. This is where I got my info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010624
I on the other hand have lost the ability to downgrade. Phone stuck on boot animation after first reboot during flashing with KDZ. I only have download mode available. Looks like from now on the MTP driver simply will not load. Sheesh.
Edit: I got Factory Reset option finally! All is good again. I really had to KDZ this thing like 30+ times.
Exact same thing happened to mine. After 5 days of literally trying everything I went to sprint and they replaced it with a new one.

Hey fellow LG Owner(s) I am writing this asking for some help. I know that majority of LG Phones use the same software and flashing tools regarding taking your phone back to stock. I currently own an LG G Flex (LS995 Sprint Variant) and I managed to soft brick my phone. I have posted this same message over at the LG G Flex Threads but so far I have gotten no one to provide me some sort of solution on how to un-brick or factory reset my phone.
The status of my phone before it got bricked was it had Root (IOROOT method), Busy-Box (by Jrummy), Build.Prop was edited to display as a Nexus 5, and boot-loader locked along with no custom recovery. If you’re wondering why my boot-loader was locked and why there wasn’t any type of custom recovery was due to the sad fact that Developers are having a hard time on cracking it.
Now to explain on how I soft bricked my phone. I was changing my font style by using a tool called ROM Toolbox (by Jrummy). I managed to change my font once and I attempted to change it a second time, since I was looking for something that displayed it wider and bolder. So as I applied install on the new font I got an automatic reboot.
The reboot consisted of the normal LG Logo display, followed by a black screen and staying as a black screen. On the upper left of my phone the notification indicator was flashing multiple colors (red, white, blue etc). This is the current state of my phone, black screen with a multicolor notification.
My attempts to fix:
- Simple reboot of the phone ((fail))
- Let the phones battery drain out then charge for a few minutes and restart ((fail))
- Managed to get into STOCK recovery and perform clean partition ((fail)
- Managed to get into STOCK recovery and apply factory reset ((fail))
- I got into some weird mode which also gave me the option to apply factory reset ((fail))
- I followed this tutorial (LG Flash Tool) on how to revert back to stock (by hyelton) ((fail))
Link to tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2644083
The tutorial by hyelton was almost successful to reverting back to stock firmware until I got to the last step (Number 6). The error that occurred by using the LG Flash Tool was when the tool attempted to flash the stock firmware it gave me a Download FAIL!! “Device Model is different“ notification (Images below). I did this tutorial at least seven times and I got no luck. Every single time that I attempted to do this I kept getting the same notification. I have now ran out if ideas on what to do.
My theory, I believe that by changing my build prop to display as a nexus 5 is the reason why I keep getting this fail notification. On the phone it-self when I put it into download mode it even displays as a Nexus 5 (Images below).
I was wondering since it’s possible to get into STOCK RECOVERY, I saw that it had an option for “ADB SIDELOAD” is it possible to push something thru ADB??? Any type of help is greatly appreciated and thanked. Please do not get upset that you see this in multiple LG threads, I am just trying to find a solution to UNBRICK this very expensive phone that I bought and I cannot afford to just use it as a paper weight. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS

Alright yall, I am almost official screwed. I purchased this phone about a month ago from Best Buy and they stated that I am out of there 15 day window so I cannot exchange or replace for the same phone. I then went to Sprint on whom I have phone insurance for and they stated that they cannot do anything and that I have to go to one of their Sprint repair stores. I went to one of the repair stores and the gentlemen that assisted me plugged my phone to his computer and immediately knew that my phone was rooted. So from there I played the dumb blonde card acting like I don’t know what he’s talking about and from there he directed me to call LG and see what they can do. So now the current status is I filed a repair request and now I am awaiting a reply from LG. Does anyone have any suggestion???
**SOLUTION** hey yall i got the solution to my problem and it was simply by downloading this universal custom .dll from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2663369
and i managed to flash back to stock recovery using this guide. instead using the dll on the the guide i used the custom one.
*GUIDE BACK TO STOCK*
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2644083
bump
edit: sorry missed that, but if you have access to download mode, the flash tool should work i would think..try it again maybe and make sure you didnt miss anything.
i would try following this guide, make sure you use the g flex .tot and .dll though. copied from the lg g2 back to stock guide from hyelton
hyelton said:
RETURN TO STOCK TOT Method! AT&T & Sprint Verzion & The Few International TOTs I have available
Download
1. LGFlashTools v1.8 - Download
2. Drivers - Download
3. Download Both Stock Image File and DLL (Both Files) - Download
Credit to @madmack for making most of this Guide for the G Pro Which also works on our G2
3.1 - FOR SPRINT FIRMWARE - Click Here
3.2 FOR International KITKAT TOT`s Click Here
Install
1. Install the LG drivers downloaded above.
2. Install LGFlashTools v1.6 (but don't run it)
3. Extract the TOT file from the ZIP
Drivers initialization
1. Put the phone into download mode. (Turn off device PRESS VOL UP while plugging in the micro usb cable. If this doesn't work, try holding both volume keys instead)
2. Let the phone initialize and install the drivers. Once done, in Device manager, you should see the LG phone listed under COM ports (something along these lines).
3. Find that LG entry in Device Manager, click on Properties, Advanced and then change the COM port to COM41 and close/save.
4. Unplug your phone! Important step.
LGFlashTools
To get this tool to work, you'll need to do a few tricks.
1. Set the computer's date to some time in July 2012 or before.
2. Disconnect the internet
3. Find a serial number or register key from somewhere on the web (a google search for lgflashtools serial will yield some results). Can't help you here and please don't share any keys in this thread or get us in trouble.
4. Execute the LGFlashTools. It should ask you for a key, put it in. Now you should see a dialog where you can load the DLL file and the TOT files that you extracted earlier. Put them both in here. Click ok
Flashing
5. There is a yellow arrow on the top left. Click on it to initialize the process. Once done, it should say "ready/finished" or whatever.
6. Put the phone in download mode again, and plug it into the USB port. LG FLash Tools should start flashing it automatically. When it's done, it'll automatically reboot into your stock AT&T rom and all of your data and internal sdcard files are gone.

adb sideload comes up as an option on stock recovery. can you please show me the command to push that. also do i have to pull the old build prop and then push the original one???
just a quick thought here, I had kind of the same problem on my G2 LS980 ( it thought it was a model 801) and to get around the error I used the correct .dll for my model phone but renamed it to the reported models .dll name, this should get the LG Tool past that check .dll error,
so for your case, you will need to find the Nexus .dll to get the name of it, then you will make a copy of your LG Flex .dll and rename that copy to the name of the nexus .dll, then when you manually load the .dll into LG Flash Tool use the renamed .dll, hope this helps you out, best of luck!

Hey christiam.coronado any luck on fixing this yet? I have the same problem as you do. Someone edited the build.prob before selling me the phone and when i went to factory reset it without knowing it was rooted and build.prob was messed with now my lg g flex ls995 thinks its a d959at whatever that may be

Okay, I need help please.... Phone been f..Ed off for like 3 days now. Had to dust the epic 4g off just to have a way to ask for help.
Here's the deal. Ls980 had twrp but after 3 days that was only thing left to change. On cwm touch now. I have wiped / formated every thing the recovery will let me. Side loaded no less than 6 ROMs 4 kernels 2 gapps and now 2 recovery 100 different ways each and watched the lg logo fade to recovery till I want to shove this phone up the next @$$ that walks by with a working phone. The flash tools and what not ain't getting it. Plus I got a f..led off hotel WiFi which wants to take 12 hours for a 2.1gb file download. My phone DLS fast as hell but not like that's doing me any good.
Pull me out this freaking pit before some school teacher walks past me in the lobby and gets a vivid picture of how big this screen really is.

What did you flash? It sounds like a partition changed and won't let you boot. Your only hope may be a .tot back to stock is there anyway you can get to a more reliable wifi source?

Try flashing the rom less than 1 GB using the KDZ_FW_UPD.exe with CS_Emergancy mode it should work if your phone have enough battery power to keep it on in download mode for 10 minutes or so, if not then try through LGNPST using tot file. Or check if it charges in the custom recovery.
Correct me if I am wrong

Turn off your phone and put it in download mode by pressing and holding ‘Volume Up’ + ‘Volume Down’ and inserting USB and use the software to flash KDZ that I attached the screetshot, KDZ_FW_UPD.exe, this one can't flash the KDZ file bigger than 1 GB so if your KDZ is more than ! GB in size then download one that is less then 1 GB recover your phone charge it then flash your desired one. You are using the R & D Tool it always check the battery level and not allow you to flash if battery is less than 50%.
Note: If you have the mako bootloader install this tool might not flash the kdz (It never did for me) to come back to full stock you will have to use the LGNPST

If it's of any help, I had exactly the same problem just a few days ago... Read from this post further down, there were some suggestions from folks, and the final solution to my issue. Long story short, KDZ Updater can work with the dead battery, if you manage to find a KDZ that can be flashed with it. I found a 1.17GB KDZ that I was able to flash (any others, just slightly larger, would give me an extract error), and then just took it from there.
As mentioned, TeenyBin and LGNPST might be another solution, but I have no first-hand experience with it, so I can't comment...
Oh, and BTW, you are saying you "tried to use KDZ Updater", but your screenshot shows the LG Mobile Support Tool -- that's a different application, and a different process. Look at a screenshot by @hackenggr a couple of posts above -- that's KDZ Updater.

If it's of any help, I had exactly the same problem just a few days ago... Read from this post further down, there were some suggestions from folks, and the final solution to my issue. Long story short, KDZ Updater can work with the dead battery, if you manage to find a KDZ that can be flashed with it.

That's exactly what I did. Flashed a KDZ (1.17GB in size, the smallest I could find) with a KDZ Updater. Low battery didn't matter.

Then I don't know... I told you what fixed the problem for me -- finding the smallest KDZ that could be flashed. If it doesn't work in your case, look into something else, like TeenyBin.

I think because you decive is converted with mako bootloader LG software not found the LG phone so they stop.
Use the LGNPST to flash the E975 tot file same way you did with teenybin just rename the .tot to .bin and you will be on the LG stock and software will work fine to your desire KDZ
so i have the sprint lg g2 ms980 with the lastest kit kat update. i was trying to manually install cyangenmod OS but i used the autorec app to access recovery instead of using the hard keys. it is know to cause white lines on the screen and there is a usable fix. i have done and fixed it before. however the most recent time using the app has caused the white lines to become much more severe. i can no longer see anything on my device it will not shutdown only soft reset. that i am aware of, because i cannot see anything, i cannot access download mode or restore mode. also the computer no longer recognizes the device. please help me i am not completely ignorant on these matters but this goes over my head.
If you have custom recovery, just hope power down until screen shuts off. Keep holding down, as lg screen comes up. When it disappears and the screen goes dark. Let go. Phone will be powered down.
Hold volume down and power. Keep them both held down until it says loading recovery.

okay so i fixed it. umm there were alot of steps involved. you must flash each partition individually and extract them from .tot file. then you can change com to 41 and use lg flashtool to restore to stock rom zv7-zvc. i have not seen the zvd.tot file but the zvd update has relesed for sprint. if more detail neccessary repy.
No tot die zvd. Just a little update. Where zvc was a major change.

Bump look up
Hi there. I recently decided to try to root my LG G4 32 GB Cermic White VS986. It didn't end very well. I realize now after intense searches that I tried to root with an old system file, and ended up kind of bricking my phone. I am stuck in the bootloader, with the LG boot logo coming up, then a screen that says "Start Up Failed" with "Authorization Error #11" at the bottom, then the Verizon logo with the device turning back off. I have tried resetting it through Recovery Mode and trying to use LG Bridge to reset it. Not many solutions seem to be coming up. I would appreciate any help at all, as the other option would be to take it in to Verizon, and I know how steep their rates can be. Thanks! Unfortunately I am unable to post images as I am a new user, but if anyone feels they have an idea of how to fix it, please message me and I will send images.
Can you get into download mode?

Yes I am able to.
Then you should be able to load any of the kdz files. If you were already on 13b make sure whatever kdz file you use is also 13b.

Thanks for the help. I did my homework after I screwed up and found how to flash the kdz back in. I also got the proper root afterwards. Thanks!
Also I apologize but could someone tell me how to close the thread? I'm really new and cant seem to find a way to ?
