Hi, i have problems with the pc suite on windows 8. I have installed the usb drivers and can access LG mobile support tool, and it recognices my phone, but the Pc suite wont. The Pc suite also "claims" that there is a updated Pc suite that i should install, but when i press the install button i get this message: Could not confirm update with updateserver". Am i retarded or what gives?
(reason for wanting to use the Pc suite is for loading pictures to my pc. I know there are other options, but just want to give it a try. Does anyone else got this problem?
I have reinstalled usb drivers, and reinstalled the PC suite but with no sucsess. Also when i connect the usb cable is is in (MPT) mode, and have tried the (PTP) mode as well.
Thanks for your imput :good:

Yeah it is anoying as hell! for me! I will try to delete the PC suite and USB drivers and try to install it all over again. Will post back if i can fix it.
Okay i got it fixed. I unistalled Lg Suite, LG mobile support tool and usb drivers. I then connected the phone to my pc via USB so that the drivers would install. After that i went to my computer and found an Icon for the LG (not a musicplayer or a harddrive, but a Mobile phone Icon) pressed it and followed the instructions. Looks like a got a newer verson of the LG suite than the one on their official webpage. File was bigger (229MB, and the old file was 206MB) After installing this everything worked.
ps Sorry for the language :silly:
Nice to see u managed to fix it. I'm gonna try that also. Gonna report back.
It still amazes me that LG have not added anything for Mac users. If you have a Mac product and an LG device, well forget it!
The version of PC suite from the website is fine, you just need to allow it to update itself, if you have done the old flashtool hacks in the past your hosts file is likely blocking the pc suite from running the update which is why you are having problems.
Lennyuk, my hosts file is good, I removed everything related to LG including all usb drivers, connected phone to pc let it install new drivers and voila, LG suite works. ? Seems like foxtrott2's solution works ?

I downloaded LG PC Suite and tried to do a back up but it says I have to put my phone in PC Suite mode. I have looked everywhere and cannot find a way to do this. I have all drivers installed and the PC Suite recognizes my phone but it won't allow me to sync or do a back up without being in PC Suite mode?
The reason I am doing this is to update my phone to 10M using that complete guide process someone else posted in the General Thread.
I think I downloaded the wrong PC Suite. I'm trying again...
Have the H811 set to MTP mode but everytime I open up Windows Explorer or LG PC Suite, either it doesn't detect the phone (PC Suite gives popup - Your device is not supported Use LG Bridge ??? to manage your device), and when I try to transfer anything via Windows Explorer it crashes.
Installed all the initial drivers, reinstalled PC Suite, and LG mobile support tool, LG Mobile driver etc.
I did run a backup of my D851 - G3 when I first got the G4 before I even connected it to my PC.
Also running Windows 10 TP Build 10125 if it makes any difference, although I doubt that's the issue.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance
A H811? What's that for version? I have a H815?
And there is no pc suite version available yet.

Thanks for the reply, yeah I was tripping out for nothing I guess
I recently acquired a Sony Xperia C6506 (ZL LTE). Before I start playing around with this phone, i need to offload some photos. I'm trying to connect the phone to my laptop running Windows 7 via the USB. My system does not recognize the phone. I'm assuming it's because I don't have the correct driver on my windows system . (I've also tried "PC Companion but had no luck there either). I searched the Sony web site for a driver but did not see a specific one for the C6506. Does anyone know where I can find the correct driver for the USB on Windows 7? Or does anyone have any other ideas why this might not be working?
Thanks
I have the same phone and windows 7 recoginzed it and installed the driver by itself. Didn't remember if it downloaded it or found it from the system. Perhaps you can try the PC companion software from Sony.

Thanks for the reply - I've loaded PC Companion and in step two, it never recognizes the device.

What happens when you connect the phone to your PC? Anything? Do you see any messages popping up? Any errors? Do you see it in device manager? Also, do you see any messages on your phone when you plug it in? What USB connection mode is set in your phone's settings? In general, MTP should be the most universal method.
I have the same phone, and it is recognized perfectly by Windows 7 (at work) and Windows 8.1 (at home). When you install Sony PC Companion, it includes the proper drivers, so you don't need to do anything extra (you do need additional drivers for flash mode and ADB, but that's a different topic). I would suggest trying another PC, to see if it makes any difference. If it still doesn't work, it might be something with your phone...
As an alternative, you can use a WiFi connection to access your files on the phone. I often use either ES File Explorer or Software Data Cable - they both provide an FTP service that you can connect to from your PC over WiFi.
Have you tried with another cable? My Xperia is recognized perfectly out-of-the-box on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10, as soon as I connect it, PC starts to search and download drivers, no PC Companion installed nor Flashtool drivers. :/

Yeah, that would be a good option to start, forgot to mention it. I've seen bad USB cables quite a few times, more often than I'd expect...
Thanks again for the quick replies and the suggestions cause they worked - it was the cable. The cable I was using was capable of charging the phone but did not allow Windows to recognize it. I used a different cable and it worked fine. Tharnks again. Now the fun begins changing the phone into a media playing device. If you have any suggestions on this I'm all ears.
Thanks
I updated my PC to windows 10 'from 8.1 which I had no problem)
Now my phone is not recognized. (MTP or PTP) --> LG Androidnet phone : driver unavailable
Latest LG USB drivers (from XDA) didn't hange anything.
I think that it's the same old sh*t than win7, when you don't have mediaplayer installed (MTP works once you installed mediaplayer).
I found a package for MTP on Microsoft website, but didn't change anything
Did someone have the same issue ?
This should help :

Hi
I had the same problem. I re-installed the LG drivers for my D855 and still no luck. Then I downloaded and installed LG PC Suite, let update itself and now my G3 connect to the PC. I tried using the LG Mobile Support Tool but Windows 10 says it is incompatible. Hopefully LG will release new drivers and update the tool.

I find the way to do the job :
First : install Microsoft MTP driver
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=48231
Second : install LGUnitedMobileDriver_S52MAN314AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.14.1.exe
http://18d5a.wpc.azureedge.net/8018D5A/tool/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00120120425
And then it works...
But if you wanna use download mode and fastboot this is what you will need to do also

Didn't work for me :/
I had no problems after installing windows 7. I followed this guide for my LS990: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...de-how-to-restore-sprint-lg-g3-ls990-t2852042
I can confirm this method works with D855, followed what the posts and video said to install and do. Flashed back to stock ROM and rerooted worked without a drama with Win 10 64bit.
Cheers
It works well on d855 and D331. thank you
Haha!! Found a solution!
Sorry for necro-ing this thread, but even now I still have the problem (with my d852).
My solution was to go on LG's website for my specific model and install the USB driver in Software Updates -> Way2 USB.
Again, sorry for the necro, but I don't want people in the future struggling with this.
I know this is an old thread but I just had the same problem with my Lenovo T450 laptop. A few days ago it recognized my G3 LS990 but today it wouldn't. I fixed it by installing the latest USB driver from LG's web site. http://www.lg.com/us/support/software-firmware-drivers
Hello i'm new here and i have huge problems on my LG k10, i rooted it with king root and then i deleted some system app i thought there were useless for some of them and i deleted lg bridge and lg keyboard but after doing it i had some crashs from settings etc so i did a hard reset but after it the phone rebooted and since this reboot i can't do anything on setup wizard (for wifi settings for example i can't write anything because i deleted the default keyboard and the google voice doesn't work offline), my sim card is not recognized even if i putted off and putted in .
So i plugged the usb for installing lg drivers from the official site and then i installed flashtool last version from lg and i downloaded the kdz stock rom for lg k10 k420n but when i go into download mode and start flashtool it doesn't flash it with error like server failed etc, even if i don't click on ok or if i click on it, it does not do anything.
I tried to download the LG UP software but when i open it under "new model" it say unknown but in the com ports it say COM6,K42010b ... if i click on select it say me "you have to select a known model, please."
And for the end my computer even with lg drivers installed don't recognize my phone on usb mass storage so i can't put an apk keyboard on it ..
I really need help even if i think my phone is dead..
Hi,
I felt sad for your side.
I'll create a guide to save bricked (or which has issues like yours) devices. It'll be right there in few hours.
EDIT: I did it. Check out there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...rmware-due-t3380529/post66883876#post66883876
