So I rooted my Optimus G and installed the CM 10.2 rom awhile back and was loving it. My GPS wasn't working, but I heard that by using LGNPST I can revert back to stock and then save the EFS and then use another restore to go to a rom with the GPS working. I put it off, and then tried to update to CM 11, but wasn't a big fan so I tried to go to use my 10.2 restore. Problem is I lost my LTE connectivity in an area that would always have 4g, and constantly have a com.android.phone error popping up every 3 seconds so going back to stock seems like the best idea.
To try and fix that I try and get LGNPST working, but at first the dll didn't work. So I registered it and try and use it with a Zv7 bin (not exactly sure what bin would be the best to get my optimus g back to stock) but I keep getting an error saying "Failed to load Model DLL". Then another box pops up saying:
"Process: upgrade_masterbin
SubProc: Masterbin Download
Cause: Cannot found MiniDP DLL"
I'm not really sure what to do next since looking for this hasn't yielded the most information for me. Sorry if this problem is easily fixable/has been solved in the forums, but i didn't find a whole lot that would help. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Wow it has been a long 24 hours. I want to go ahead and appoligize,...I have a really bad memory. Sunday I went from Task650 AOKP (Android 4.3) to Validus 4.1 (Android 4.4.2) . I cleaned everything before flashing and then installed the supersu and gapps as stated in the op. Yesterday I found out I had a wifi problem, not sure if I was able to connect before or not. from this point until I try back to stock i get a popup stating that media has stopped or media storage has stopped and it happens progressively more often as time goes on. I tried dirty flash and it didnt work so i thought i would try a new kernel. I had never tried flashing kernels before but i read up on it and seemed very simple. so I flashed Ktoonsez KT747 kernel, i also flashed EMJB modem to see if there was a difference. afterward when i looked in settings - about phone under kernel version it said (not exactly but best i can remember) 3.4.77-cyanogenmod .... dirty KT747. i couldnt find anything about this but i didnt think this was good. i dont remember if i tried reflashing or doing anything to fix it right then or not. but at some point late yesterday after a reboot my lockscreen was transparent (might have been before), background was black, status bar was gone, when i recieved a call there was no popup it would just ring but i could go in to phone and it said return to current call but i couldnt do anything to answer. I could call backthough. i did still have notification on the lockscreen. xposed fimware was also disabled so i figured that ruled out any issued from it. I was getting aggrivated. i read up a little more. read suggestions to flash back to stock periodically. I figured i should try that. BIG MISTAKE!!! I still dont know why it didnt work but i tried plenty! before flashing the EMJB modem I had DLK3. so i thought that meant i would be ok to return to stock because i never upgraded my bootloader. when i flashed it with odin it went all the way through and restarted the phone but got stuck on samsung logo after at&t splash screen. so i odin flashed cwm booted into recovery and restored a nandroid backup (life saver!!). this worked and i was back on AOKP with DLK3 modem but not satisfied and feeling a little safe to explore knowing that i had a safe return plan unless something went detrimentally wrong. so with my modem saying DLK3 and my rom on 4.3 instead of 4.4 i decided to try back to stock again and use the true stock instead of rooted stock. (WORSE MISTAKE!!) ODIN failed. my heart dropped i was terrified. I decided to download and try KIES but it wouldnt connect to the phone after downloading the firmware. I tried odin flashing root stock again and if finished and stuck on samsung again. so i flashed cwm and sideloaded Validus to get back to 4.4.2. seems to be working good but now to get to the issue. ater i got it back working i got a notification that sdcard was removed unexpectedly. before anyone directs me to one of the hundred threads with this title my issue is with internal storage not the external sd card. i have seached it quite a bit but i cant find anything like my situation. it seems that if i go to /storage/sdcard0 it is empty but i can access it from any of the following locations and its not empty.
/storage/emulated/0
/storage/emulated/legacy
/sdcard
/mnt/sdcard
I do not understand this.
Anyone that has any helpful information thank you in advance.
update : it happened again today. my phone died during the night and when I turned it on just now it popped up the notification SD card removed unexpectedly except it popped up and went away really fast like 10 times. still the only thing missing is storage/sdcard0

Alright, so I just started using my OG on ringplus and decided to root with framaroot (I think I used gandalf mode). Anyways later on the phone started showing Demigod kernel issues (On stock zvc). So I went with Teenybin and flashed the unlocked bin using LGNPST. Same kernel issue. However custom roms don't show this issue. Now, the problem is I need to go back to stock so I can get to diag mode since my esn info got corrupted. Now this wouldn't be a problem since I'm alright with cdma workshop or DFS (I only want to repair the ESN), but of course I need to go back to stock. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT: I should probably add that I have tried several roms, and several different bins (including full sized ones) yet I always come back with the same black screen with the Demigod kernel error. One more thing is that I have all the information that needs repairing, just can not use it until I get a working stock image.
Do custom stock roms work such as optimus DE or lifeless?
Also theres a guide somewhere on how to activate diag mode on aosp roms. Id link you but im on my phone. Should come up easily on searching the forums. i know theres a link to it in the irc chatroom.

Strangely aosp roms work fine minus service. I did try the guide, but for some reason I couldn't edit any of the efs settings even after I flashed the efs recovery zip they had. DFS and cdma workshop just bring up failed or errors when in diag mode. So far I tried DE, but I'll have to try Lifeless and see what happens. It's just so weird how the demigod kernel issue keeps appearing on stock and stock based roms, the phone freezes and reboots to a black warning screen.

Maybe try a stock rom with a custom kernel made for it like viper?

Try this thread... If you flash the teeny bin it will give you an unlocked boot and recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230106
I think that might fix your problem. Grab the teeny and not the full. The full is huge and will erase your info and is not necessary.
Try that out and come back. I am all but sure it is related to the bootloader/recovery.

I probably should have said when I used LGNPST I used teenybin originally. I just downloaded it again now and flashed teenybin once more but got the same problem. I've tried lifeless and another stock based rom, but I still get the demigod crash. I used both TWRP and Philz touch to install stock roms. When I use an aosp rom and get into diag mode through the terminal I still can't use cdma ws or dfs to edit anything. I'm thinking stock might solve this, but that demigod error follows me everywhere. This problem is such a pain.
Viper Is here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486990
Alright I tried the lifeless stock rom and ended up with the demigod crash before booting up. I also received it when I tried the viper kernel. One more weird thing happened though. When I tried going into diag mode from the terminal on cm11 (4.4.4) windows didn't recognize it and I got the demigod crash. Could it maybe be that the dll for the lgnpst program is messed up so whenever I try to flash teenybin it corrupts the bootloader (I've done this too many times)? I'll try downloading and reinstalling lgnpst to see if it helps.
Alright, so I tried playing around with it a bit more and only got more problems. So after reinstalling lgnpst it seemed to make a difference, but still have similar problems. I ended up flashing a full bin of zvb after messing with teenybin for a bit, but it kept freezing followed by a reboot (tried factory resetting it too). Then I flashed the full zvc with more issues. It kept restarting again. So I flashed the unlocked teenybin and the power started acting weird, working sometimes (I've had this before when messing with it earlier). After I finally got it started from being connected to a charger for a while the phone got stuck on a new demigod error. This one said "Watchdog bark detected" and the screen was a weird yellow tint. Custom roms still work though for some reason. The last part is the meid and imea info shows up as unknown after flash the zero efs file with twrp. This phone is starting to get real annoying.
UPDATE: Alright, so after I flashed to zvb without success I figured there wasn't much hope on downgrading. However, I found there are some older ics bins. I downloaded the zv7 bin and flashed it. So far the phone has not crashed. I'm not quite sure why, but the jelly bean stock firmware causes my phone to crash. I will add more details if I can get it back working on Ringplus.
Some more details: So for some reason the zero out efs isn't working for me. All of the imei and esn info all shows as unknown on my phone. Stock hasn't crashed yet, but the spc seems to be corrupted or something. My old spc code and all 0's don't work. Cdma ws, cdmadevterm, and anything else I use to get into diag stuff always freezes when attempting the read for the phone. I hope my efs isn't corrupted beyond repair.
Any ideas? Short of replacing the logic board, I'm not really sure what to try. I've used 2 different computers to try and mess with the efs, but like I said the programs would hang. Could it maybe have anything to do with Windows 8.1, should I try with 7? I'm getting ready to give up on this phone, it's been bugging me for too long.
Alright, just thought I'd give an update since I finally got around to working on it one more time. I should mention that when I first had this problem I ordered another ls970 with a broken screen just to replace the logic board, well when I rooted it the same thing happened while it was being unlocked (or possibly before). So I figured I would just not root it or mess with the bootloader. Unfortunately that wasn't the problem. After ordering one last ls970 with a broken screen (they're pretty cheap at least), I replaced the logic board. It worked for a while, than the same problem problem occurred. I never tried rooting or unlocking it. I needed to update the profile through the settings, but that should not have done this. I can only think of 2 possibilities. My Google account managed to backup something from the other ones that caused the problem or something with updating the profile with Ringplus caused it. I'm just going to give up on it this time, working with esn fix didn't work and it would take way too long if it did.
looking for some suggestions as to what I can to to correct these issues. I have a 210R that I screwed up probably flashed something I should not have... to restore I went to sam mobil and downloaded the latest firmware ( T210RUEU0COB1), installed using Oden and restored the Tab. since I have done this (and yes I redownloaded the firmware and reinstalled to make sure it was a good file and installation) the tab now will boot up fine, but will come up with the error messages Process com.androis.systemui has stopped and often com.sec.android.flashbarservice has stopped as well clicking ok will sometimes let me continue, other times will simply reboot. If it lets me continue whatever app I am using will quickly stop as well and the tab reboots. in addition to this the WiFi barely recieves any signal unless I am almost on top of the router. it is currently stock. Any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated.
Having the same problems minus wifi issues

Dude my tablet is in the same state I use. The many reboots. All apps/process stopping for no reason. Funny thing is this started happening to me after I received an OTA update for 4.4.2 and flashed it. So basically the official update released by samsung messed up my phone. Somebody please respond with suggestions/solutions.
Sigh.... guess I'll just use it as a paperweight ..
Hi there guys i bought the sprint g2 quite a while ago and have been dangling with roms for quite some time on it the problem that i'm sharing with you guys arised today.
I flashed the newest version of Resurrection Remix 5.4.6 on it and while it worked buttery smooth it had no sound whatsoever and couldn't auto-rotate so i flashed the lp baseband and zv8 modem on it to see if it remedies that, no solution, so i reverted it back to 5.4.5 with my nand backup, it worked fine until i found out i couldn't d2w when it was working flawlessly before so i flashed(foolishly) the kitkat baseband and this leads me to the problem i'm sharing with you people.
My phone is now stuck in a bootloop restarting to the lg screen again and again, giving me a secure boot error on download mode so i can't use the .tot and .dll stock files on it and i can't seem to get into hard factory reset so i can just get into twrp and flash the lp baseband again and relieve me of this nightmare it also gives me multiple windows drives with one accessible one with an image folder when i go to download mode
[EDIT] fixed it somehow got into recovery and flashed the lp modem, can a mod close this?
Hello guys,
I managed again to brick my phone.
I flashed Fulmics as I wanted to swap from those not fully stable nougat roms. Well, I have no idea what caused my problem - Fulmics run without prolbems for a 2 or 3 days including xposed etc.
Then today I changed my ChromePie options and that's when the reboots began. I don't know if this the real cause was though.
So I tried to flash another rom but always got random reboot even in recovery after few minutes/seconds. So I went all the way back to stock rom (4.4.2) with LG Flash tool - which worked after a few tries. Then I installed MM rom via .kdz file and flash tool 2014, which also worked after a few more tries. But then the reboots started again. Can't say if the 4.4.2 rom was without boots because I updated to 6.0 quite quickly.
The strange thing is that after some reboots phone won't boot again and I have to take and leave out the battery for some time to boot the phone again.
Any solutions for my problems?
Best regards
..bumped into the same 1/2 year ago. Didn't want to put to much effort so,..went to stock and back, worked for me.
Good luck.

Which stock and how did you go back?
As mentioned I already went back to stock but the issue kept occuring.
Hi, got the same problem with my G3
wi fi and bluetooth didn't work and phone loop rebooted
Here below the steps I followed to solve
1) First attempt (didn't solve): had cloudy rom, got back to stock official but still rebooting, tried fulmics and other rom but problem persisted.
2) second attempt (didn't solve): went back to stock and changed battery (found somewhere in internet), now I have a brand new battery but a phone still loop rebooting
3) third attempt (SOLVED): found that the wi-fi / bluetooth chip (one for both) copuld have unwelded and solved so (it appears I can't post outside link, delete spaces to have the correct link):
youtube .com / watch?v=1zWpzYh2DPI&t=15s"
youtube .com/ watch?v=6_0jzp65eLY&t=256s
Now i'm on fulmics and no more loop reboot
Hope you can solve
[sorry for my english]

have to say restoring and/or flashing isn't always that stable. I've experienced it sometimes needs a 2nd try.
Hopefully it isn't a hardware issue in your case.
So I tried all of oyur suggestions but nothing seems to work.
On the contrary I ended up in a status where I can't even flash a new firmware.
In LG Flash Tool 1.8.1 I get the error
"Donwload Fail!!!"

In LG Flash Tool 2014 (flashing MM with kdz file) phone shuts down in middle of process.
But I can still access Download Mode.
No more ideas?
I really think I finally broke my phone... But the fact that I can still access download mode keeps my hopes up.
So, after 2 months I just tried to reawaken my phone. Still the exact same problem. It just keeps shutting down aber some while, but just when I start flashing something. If it stays connected to computer whitout doing anything it can stay on for like ever.
Can anyone confirm that this could be a hardware defect?
