So I was about to flash a ROM (viperone), and while I was in aroma I went to the "flash stock kernel" setting and did that, because I felt it probably wouldn't hurt. Well, turns out it broke my phone's ability to boot into recovery, from what I can tell. I can enter fastboot and I tried reflashing the recovery but it still won't go to it when I select that setting. What happens instead is it flashes to the HTC screen then it goes black for a few seconds, then it goes to the bootloader screen (where it has the red message) and it just sits there forever. Did I just completely brick my phone by doing this?
Actually scratch that, I managed to fix it by flashing the GPE RUU. Now I just hope I can figure out how to switch it back to stock at some point.
Bought a used D851. It is stuck in bootloop at the t-mobile screen. When i turn it on, shows LG logo, then green android icon for few seconds, then again LG logo. After about 1 minute, the white t-mobile screen shows up and stays for about 45 seconds and then screen goes black followed by white t-mobile screen again.
I have tried stock recovery with lg mobile tools. Also tried lg flash tools and everything goes fine, at the end, i get blue reset status 3 screen. Upon reboot, its back to boot loop. Also tried factory reset. With lg flash tools, when i choose "Board" then after reboot, it logs on to the minios menu but the screen is completely unresponsive. So when i again flash with "upgrade" selected, it flashes fine but continues the boot loop.
Please help.

I think I bricked my phone and it is not turning on. I can see the LG logo coming up on the screen but it doesn't go beyond that.
I see some small error message on the Top left corner of the LG Logo screen. Once the that screen is off I see Blue and Red LED light blinking.
Someone please help me.

I will spare myself from answering the question for the third or fourth time? and just quote myself.

jerimynal wiley the error you get "secure boot error" is caused by image you are trying to boot not being bumped or not properly flashed. I assume you get this error both while trying to access recovery and OS. If that is the case you should use this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089&nocache=1
to flash stock firmware on your device.
But if you have a case where you are able to access your recovery (TWRP I assume) you could use one of the custom images provided here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development (assuming you have D855 version) . Flash them and use them as OS.

hey guys i really need your help. here's the detailed story:
I've got a D855 on 5.0 that has just been recently been rooted. It's been working perfectly until just a few hours ago i wanted to try enabling the build.prop edit to enable all applications to be usable in split screen mode. so i just switched the related value from false to true, saved changes then reboot.
This is where the problem starts:
When trying to reboot, it just shows the LG logo briefly.. the LED lights just light up and switch from green to blue and loop over and over while the screen is blank.
I tried doing the factor reset on boot (power + volume down, release on power on then re-press again), but when i choose to factory reset the phone a short message on the top left appears ("Secure Booting Error! Cause : Boot Certification Error" - or something like that) then the screen goes blank and the led flashes from blue to red and on loop.
How can i go about making this thing work again?
Thanks in advance! Any help would be greatly appreciated
shameless bump
Can you get TWRP? If yes and have backup build.prop or ROM, flash it.
If not, can you get download mode? If yes flash KDZ.

You need to download a KDZ file for you D855 from a site or XDA thread
Then use the LG tool to flash the KDZ and then your phone should work as it worked before. I've had this issue before. Fixed it this way

thanks, yeah it was the only way i was able to bring it to life.. was able to fix it yesterday by using the TOT method.
Another question: it seems that after flashing the TOT file (i used the UK version), i can't enable LTE anymore. when i try to enable via settings, the signal just disappears. when i go back to the home screen, it gets restored but only up to "H/3g", and when i go back to settings it goes back to GSM/WCDMA.

You need to change your APN settings. Look on google for the LTE APN settings for your provider

Could somebody go over this KDZ stuff? I never used it before. I have a G3 850 with a black screen. It will boot, I get sounds but no visual anything except for LED, it flashes blue and green.
Hi,
I recently installed flashify on my LG G3. It was sometimes switching off during use and I thought to try and install new ROM.
Now however, it does not start. Going into recovery mode returns an error 'Secure boot error' and leads to black screen with red/blue LED fash. Going into download mode causes a message to appear in small text in the middle of screen 'Recovery mode' (not full screen like normal) but then resets after 8 seconds and goes to black screen.
Hence using LG flash tool to flash stock ROM is impossible because it resets itself after 8 seconds.
Please help!
Thanks.
