ok my friend went ahead and tried to root his sprint lg g2.he did the root correctly then when he tried to flash recovery he didi something which put him stuck on ls logo...he tried to put it in recovery mode and download mode and all it did was boot into fastboot mode..so he search and read and came across this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2779007) he proceeded to do this and everything went good and he said that he got errors on img flashing,steps 5-8..now phone is in just black screen and when i plug in to computer reads like sd card and asking me to format...now he is asking me to try to get his phone back up and running...Any help would be appreciated..thank you

Exact same thing happened to me. I was rooted and borked it trying to get the recovery on. Fastboot black screen no matter how i tried firing it up. Dont remember where but found a tut giving me the fastboot commands to get it unstuck and into download mode. Google lg g2 stuck in fastboot, after u fix that from there i used the unroot method here on xda. Search my last couple posts and u will see the thread i used. It saved my phone.

Can you get into download mode?
If you can, you can flash a KDZ and it should work.
what is download mode exectly?
Hold power button and volumpe key down and home botton together to enter into download mode. After this you can connect your phone to pc and flash rom

Dont worry your not the only one that did this, i did exacly that yesterday ?
Seach this forum for the flash tool manuel and download the firmware for your phone version thats what i did to make my phone boot again :good:
thanks alot guys!!!
I am Done.
It's not booting, it shows LG splash screen and after some seconds dies.
I tried everything...
my last resort was using LG Flash Tool and flashing the .tot file...
First time, it went good, even reached where the 2 Factory Reset Status, where it froze though. Followed a guide saying I need to select Board DL, tried but no good.
Now, when trying to flash again, and reaching where the phone has to reboot, it shows the LG Splash screen and dies again, sometimes, it shows the Demigod Crash Handler saying either Kernel Crash or Tz Crash.
No one seems to want to help ...

Hi everybody, is there any one who can give me a link of .tot modified file with hex editor, I flashed my phone (LS980) with wrong firmware (D802) and when I try to flash it with the right file wich is destined for LS980 the flash tool consider the phone as a D802 model, I tried all methods I found on XDA to restore my phone but nothing done, my phone still brick, and the only way to flash it now is to modify the .tot file with a hex editor soft, if there is someone who can give me a link to that file, or to show me the exact line to modify in the file and which hex soft to use it will be a great help for me.
Thank you in advance (Please try to give the help I demand, because I tried every methods)
Hello kakah2011, First of all i'd tell you to calm down its gonna be alright. secondly can you explain briefly the previous version of software you were running. Android version and the software version, if you could mention would be of great help. And did you flash D802 rom yourself, as if it were running LS980 previously or did you buy the phone already flashed with a fake D802 rom. I can guide and provide you on how to resolve the issue but first i need to make sure which partitions are flashed to your phones memory currently.
just relax. i had exactly the same issue and it got sorted out. My phone(hardware ls980) came with a fake 802 software on it. So i assumed its a 802 and flashed 802 roms on it till it completely got screwed up. the touch went crazy and the phone got into a auto restart loop.
I have the edited file, but i dont know how to give you a 2.5 gb file. Any ideas how it can be shared.
I edited the original file using flexhex. You just need to change the first instance of the word LS980 to D802. the trick here is that in hex editor format when we replace L with D , S with 8, 9 with 0, 8 with 2,0 we replace with a spacebar. The last parts a mistake. 0 should be replaced by a blank and not a spacebar. Copy a blank from nearby and insert it. or try a 00 value. I dont remember exactly what i did. but my mistake was that i was replacing the 0 with a space bar.
after the format, my phone stopped getting into the download mode. Instead i got stuck in some fastboot mode which was getting activated by using the volume up key while inserting the wire(before this, i was getting download mode in volume down+usb wire insertion). had to struggle a bit to get the phone back to download mode. I used something called adb tools to get this done. If you konw these tools, its just a 2 min job.
After that i reflashed the original tot file of ls980 and the phone started working great.
if you need anyhelp, call me if you are from india on 9700000678. Else pm here or email on [email protected]
dont forget to thank me.

Thak you Mr, I think that the previous Firmware before I flash it was a LS980 (4.4.2 or 4.2.2), and I think that the version that I flashed the phone with is 16GB, and I can't use adb fastboot with PC to because it don't recorgnize the IMEI and the only way to restore it is the download mode (No Philz recovery) and I must notice that the screen is not normal (when I push it in an area it moves in another), I think that it's bricked for ever!!!!???

Is there any method to flash the .tot file firmware using fastboot? because there is no more download mode after flashing the modified firmware using FlexHex. Any suggestion ?

The .tot can only be flashed in download mode, on a serious note i'd suggest you here to give your phone to some expert it wouldn't cost you much. But if you'd like to follow.. download mode can easily be restored using the method in the link i just provided earlier. When you get into download mode only then your rom can be restored.. btw please follow as instructed cause if something wrong goes here eg flashing wrong image in fastboot or wiping all at once.. could lead the phone to hard brick and would cost you double as much later to get it fixed. My personal suggestion is to pay $15-30 for this operation and get it over with.. do you have any suitable repair shops in your area?

First I want to thank every one who helped me to restore my G2(especially Krunal Jain who shows me the first step which is the key), finally you've just to download the LAF file and flash it in order to get back download mode then you can flash the .tot firmware of the LS980.
The prbleme now is that there is no more adresse MAC when entering to Wifi settings, and also Cellular network, I guess that these two things need a lot of search to restore them !! Any suggestion??? THANK YOU GUYS

Hello brother
I fixed mine yesterday, i ll tell what to do
If you want to get access to download mode, just remove the buttons connector ,then that metalic plat that its glued in just to get access tothe ic chip and motherboard , of course to do this u need to takr off the baterry and all connectors, once u takr off yhe buttons reconnect every connwctor except the one of buttons and baterry
Thrn connect the the phone to the pc by using a usb (without baterry) then u need a liyyle screw driver or a wire to short the capacitor c5000 and c5004, keep trying till u heard thr pc detect new device named qhusb
Great , for that you need to download srk tool 2.1 just google it
Then selectfix utility then unbrick qhusb and select the correct drive
It will flash : haf, boot , aboot
Thats good for now ur download mode is back to life
Then for ls980 u need to install stock tot file (ls890zv7.tot) flash it with lg flash tool use manual mode u need a dll file (lgls980_20130904_lgflashv151.dll) download it on google... i ll send you links later hiw to do this,im using my phone
Once finished , ur phone is back to life but no signal
Easy ,just need to root. Then install twrp recovery
After that u need to install via recovery mode the (ls980stockuniversal to d802.zip)
And u re phone is getting signal and being fixed
edit: here the tutorial links that helps ya how to do everything
1- to get your phone alive ( to be detected as qusb_bulk)

Thats what it should do.
Change the gp override setting at the back (refer instruction)
If failed keep trying.
