No upgrade item to fix
In lg mobile support tool when i try to upgrade recovery it says no upgrade item to fix, help me guys i cant fix my phone yet:crying:
If you're still stock at the cwm loop, try flashing cwm again with a cwm.zip file. That works for me every time when I get stock in the recovery loop.
Edit: Besides flashing the recovery zip file, you also need to flash your ROM and gapp from within the new recovery you just flashed.

That is correct, get an ADB working folder in your computer (or download it from Google) and push a ROM with it, search for the commands on how to push a ROM through ADB, I'm not at home or else I'll point it to you step by step, try it on yourself and let me know if you need additional help.
Working now (Fixed)

Hello Guys, I tried to flash sling v3.2 but after flashing it i got on the aroma installer "symlinks error" after rebooting my phone it was stuck in lg logo : "secure booting failed" then it shows a black screen with on-screen buttons.

Please any help will be appreciated thanks
Update: Now my phone is not booting up (not even getting into fastboot/recovery) and when i hold the power button or hold vol- and power button the phone blinks a red led and then no response plz respond guys!!!
Try to charge it a bit. Maybe its completely empty. But use a charger that can output more than 1.5A

flash stock rom. lg flashtool 2014 should work but if im remember u have to disconnect internet in one step..
or try artmod locked bootloader version (locked bootloader kernel)
Ur actually status:
u have locked bootloader with a rom which is not booting. now u can flash artmod and locked bl kernel (look at thread) over adb sideload. so u will not loosing ur files if u havent wiped sdcart (internal storage)
or if u have no important files, flash stock. theres also a flasher with option to wipe or not. u can it also try with them...
Unbelievable!!!!!!
My phone was hard bricked and I fixed it!!!! I'm going to post a guide
I flashed 30c firmware with flashtool 2014 over rooted 21a (i think) on my D855 from Greece. I selected the normal flash to keep my files and apps, phone mode: DIAG and didn't clear the update registry. Phone worked normal for a week and then went into a boot loop. The phone randomly restarts and goes into loops for a while and then snaps out of it.
I have tried the following and none have fixed the issue:
-Replaced the battery.
-Upgraded to 30f over lg pc suite hoping it would fix it but it didn't.
-Flashed 30c and 30f over LG Flash tool with CS_EMERGENCY mode and cleared the updated registry.
-LG Flash tool wont flash any older lollipop kdz I tried. The phone screen flashes once but stays at 0% and then I receive a phone disconnected message.
-Put the device into safe mode and used the option on lg pc suite to fix upgrade errors. Didn't fix anything lol
-Tried factory reset. Nothing happened after I selected the yes on the confirmation.
-Tried to use LGUP hoping to install a lollipop kdz but it gives me an error message that I have to select a known model. Restarting the app and the phone didn't work either.
-Tried a guide on how to unroot and return to stock with the kitkat .tot file .
I really have no idea what else to try. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem and i got into the problem for the same reason.... the random rebooting that everyone says is down to the battery is something more sinister... i have tried 4 different batterys that work perfectly and it still happened i flashed a kdz and now i have a bootloop and no OS none of the other kdz files work neither do the tot files and lgup doesnt recognise my device... stuck...

That's the first thing I tried on my list of failed attempts to fix the problem as you can see... Brand new battery. No change.
DjCaprio tried 4 different batteries as you can see.
This is just terrible!

I tried removing the battery while connected to the pc via usb already. The other trick that involves editing a file requires root.
My phone started flashing the blue screen of death today so I finally took it to LG so they can check it out. Either way thanks for trying to help.
Hi guys. I need help. I have LG G4 LS991. The phone was not fully flashed and after a Hard Reset some sections were erased. It doesn't enter in Download mode. Without battery as qdloader 9008. With the battery, the phone tries to on, but freezes and reboots at different stages. But it enters to the recovery and it's possible to connect the phone as adb sideload. ZV6 firmware with root is set on the phone and Update package does not install. Any thoughts on this? There are chances to recover?
Use lg pc suite connect device to pc if it detects ur phone go to mobile device and then restore upgrade errors it will download the firmware so it will take so time follow the process and flash it ...this works 100% for g3 not sure about g4..there is no harm in trying rit hit thanks if it helps...mind if u had famous bootloop issue that is hardware related it wont fix it
Hello, (complete n00b here)
Several days ago I've tried to flash a 6.0 MM (from 5.1) to my LG G4 H815 phone. There was no option to do it automatically so I proceded to do it manually via flashboot.
I hard-bricked it to oblivion as in black screen, no response whatsoever.
While investigating @ the internet I've managed to understand I could get it fixed via quadcomm drivers (mode 9008).
Tried various "fixes" for H815 but was getting safari download errors. For some reason I tried a LS991 fix and it worked. When I started the phone it showed no logo but just a secure booting error 1006.
Still, could enter firmware download so I began to flash a lot of KDZ firmwares with no success.
LGUP shows my model : H81510H.
While in fastboot mode there is a note below (wasn't there the first time) with codes : 633 B46 or something like that.
While flashing anything it ALWAYS STOPS at 9% with a tot anti-rollback error. While flashing the code changes briefly where one can read smth like : LGLS991ZVA ver. 6.0
Managed to download some KDZ for that exact model, SAME ERROR. Tried to find / flash LS991ZVA with no success in finding a TOT file.
Also, managed to get ADB drivers up and it shows unauthorized in listing (LS991). Fastboot does not detect my device even in fastboot mode @ phone.
Please HELP!

H81510h is os version it is still at 5.1 I think....what may help is plug your phone in with lgup and drop the battery out of it then closes of LG up put battery back in and start LG up and find kdz that matchs your phone and make sure that it doesn't have anti rollback.....

Hello and thx for reply. I tried to do what u've said. It did something (I was looking for a while back). When I plug the cable back in, my windows 7 immediately installs quadcomm hs-usb driver (9008) and my phone acts as if it was dead. LGUP cannot find it in that state. I've been trying to QFIL the "proper" soft but it continues to pop different errors (using different QFIL versions). Either saharafail or some sort of download fail.
LGUP still presents an error (if I decide to "fastboot" it) @ 9% 0x2000, TOT antirollback version is smaller than device version.
How can I make sure I've got the proper KDZ without ANTI-ROLLBACK?

Thx again. Uppercut shows H81510H as LGUP did. Is it possible that it's somehow write-protected?
It confuses me, since during the firmware update on my phone, I get this small box below the picture showing wierd codes : 633A Bxx and when I'm trying to flash my phone, the code gets longer with LS991ZVA v6.0 and more other. It then stops.
Funny thing is, when I got the phone I couldn't even connect to the LG bridge to update it at all. I've managed to do it bugging the MTP protocol but THAT on the other hand prevented me from copying stuff / FLASH my phone to MM 6.0. Had to factory reset it back then and all went back to "normal" = LG couldnt detect my device but I could copy photos or stuff from it.
NOW, when my phone is bricked, LGbridge DETECTS my phone (in fastboot), downloads the newest KDZ update BUT cannot install it (same thing as in LGUP). Hence my question : is it somehow write-protected?

Have you tried to eset it by pushing power and volume own then when you see bootsplash then release power button and hen quickly push the power button again....
But in your case push power and volume down within the count or 20 then release power then push power button again and see what happens and then try the same thing on volume up......
Thanks for the reply.
I did what u've said. Despite no logo I tried to release power button for a second just after the screen's brightness goes up (I also get a small vibration @ start). Everytime I get secure booting error 1006 after a few seconds.
On the other hand when I did that with volume UP button there was no error but there was nothing aswell until I release power button in which case I got the secure booting error. All of the above tries were done with no USB connection with anything.

Do try with usb s well it may do something r do nothing......
Can't tell atm since I gave it to professionals. I'll wait and see how it'll turn up. Thx for all the effort tho, was nice to tinker with a lil help
@Longbranch did you solve this problem ? I'm in the same state but my phone model is H810, everything else is the same as yours.
Nope, not really. I gave it back to the reseller and my money got returned luckily.
The professionals I refer to above did install a specific firmware for the ls991 type. Firmware ZVB I think. The only one appliable apparently. Anyways, as I suspected the ls991 type is for the US and therefore it didn't work in my country in EU. My sim card wouldnt work with it. Besides, without the sim card, the phone decided to freeze and die after several minutes every time I turn it on. Swapped for LG G5 and it's working flawlessly up until this day.
good for you, what i don't understand is that it's a h810 model but now identify as ls991 does that mean you can convert it just by a Qfil flash? I may try another model flash if can't find a suitable Rom for it

Yes! That's what I and neutrondev telling everyone :
do not use qfil without the knowledge about the result!
The only working firehose file available out there is for the ls991 and that means if you use it it will turn your device into a ls991 without any way to get back to your previous device model!!

@steadfasterX since I have done it already is there any way to get it working even as an LS991 ?
here is what i did till now
the reason for using Qfill is that it went dead after flashing an H810 rom .
after that when it's in download mode it doesn't allow me to flash the ls911ZV5 ls911ZV6 ls911ZV6_12 roms that i found ( it says LS991ZVA )
so i went in fastboot and flashed boot/aboot/recovery....img extracted from the ls911ZV6 rom then it accepted the rom in download mode
but it is stuck in a hard bootloop ( reboots when it is getting in recovery but still has download mode yet no fastboot as before)
any thoughts ?

Yes it's possible. You can boot a h811 H815 or any other rom you like. Even LOS!!
Great right? BUT you are bounded to the ls991 modem and so you need to be in a sprint network to use telephony. That means the phone is now useless outside the US .
And you wrote you tried ls911 ROMs? I hope you meant ls991
I work on a fully working experience on every network though. Checkout my proof of concept for unlocking the bootloader thread
I can go into details on IRC if you like.

@steadfasterX thank you for keeping up with me ! ( btw what room on IRC ?)
for now I have used Qfill again and got fastboot working again and flashed TWRP ( not sure where ! ) so when the phone is off and i plug the usb it boots to twrp ( but it doesn't in recovery )
normal boot will show "secure boot error 1002"
then i flashed twrp img to recovery partition using twrp but it didn't work in recovery ( still reboots after showing Recovery Mode loading screen )
also tried to load some roms on the device to try them but I got error "file too large for filesystem " when copying them .
atm I don't know the state I'm in and what should be next ?
btw here are the recovery log and dmesg

Np we can bring you back to life but as already said without cell service. That's the price for the firehose and unlocked feeling you have now.
Did you found and read my thread here?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/bl-unlock-unlock-bootloader-proof-t3648288
There you will find some more info and also the IRC details how you can find me. I'm online from Monday to Friday mainly.
It's much easier to talk in chat then here. once all the details are known I will provide a full guide.
