Hi all,
I just bought a Nexus 9 and I am selling my G Pad to a friend. I was running the V18 build and been happy with it ever since it appeared. However, today I tried to factory reset the device and it just boot looped complaining of a secure boot error, presumably as I was rooted. I tried to restore the tablet by using the official LG tool and the "Update Recovery" method yet that fails at 4% each and every time. I then tried to do the method found here (which I remember working, but not sure how I got it to work months ago). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2692505
I have the drivers all installed okay, the PC is finding the tablet fine, however when trying to flash the TOT file I get "Download Fail" at the same point every time with an error like "00064" every time. I think this could be due to the low batttery and I have no left it charging in download mode (if this does charge?).
I'm not sure what else I can try now, the tablet is stuck in download mode and I cannot do anything with it, any help is appreciated and I can provide info to be more clear if needed.
Thanks all,
Tom.
Hi, I've had the same problem. For me the only solution was to install Windows XP (English version) and the progress bar magically skipped 4th percent. I think it has something to do with LG TOOL not being compatible with some Windows (languages) versions. You can give it a try, please let us know if it worked.

Hi there,
i rooted my G3 using Towelroot and all worked fine.
Today i installed the actual Version Xposed Framework and after rebooting it entered a Bootloop.
So i tried to Hard Reset my G3 but when i confirm it the Android with the Gaers show up for a second and then my G3 keeps showing the LG Logo for a few Minutes till i disassamble the Battery.
Next step i try is to flash a firmware in Download mode, but i cant get the Drivers to work... =(
Someone have some hints for me?

Bigger problem is that i dont get any usb driver working for firmware update in Download mode.. =(
OK... i managed to get the drivers working.
But further Problem ist now that im not able to flash anything on my device...
Neither the TOT Method, nor updating with the Original LG Support Tool is working...
Support Tool tells me my Model Number and that my Version is most actual.
If i update anyway it stucks at 4% and tell me it cant connect.
TOT Tool tells me that my Version Number is not correct... but it is..
With the KDZ Update Tool it stucks at 4% like the Original method.
Same problem here
Any one can help us?

Hi there,
the Problem was my PC...
I was on a Windows 8.1 64bit.
Switched to a Win7-PC and all is working fine.
You should try to use the Original LG cable, or another "Original" Cable and connect it to a USB-Port on the Back of your PC (directly to the Mainboard)
On a blank Win 7:
- I installed the LG PC Suite
- Updated the PC Suite
- Connected my LG in Download Mode
- Let the PC install all drivers,
- Disconnected the Phone
- Downloaded the actual LG Mobile Support Tool
- Let the Support tool do the work
After this i got my first OTA Update and its working like a charme
Hi all, I've had some issues with my G3 and have got to the point where I need the advice of wiser heads to try and fix the problem!
The phone seemingly died during an update a few weeks ago, but I was able to fix it using LG's tool and upgrading to Marshmallow. Then a few days ago with no warning the phone froze, and gets stuck in a bootloop at the LG screen, with the flashing LED. If I try to factory reset, I just end up with the Android Droid with a red triangle and I can't get any further. I've tried numerous guides I've found to try and reinstall the stock firmware, all without success. (I haven't tried accessing bootloader as I have download mode available). LG's own tool gets stuck at 4% when I try to recover, and I've tried the LG Flash Tool but get an error at 6% (LAF_READ_GPT_FAILED) using the 8974 dll. I've also tried the LGUP tool but that gets stuck at 6% (Error can't communicate with phone[Kilo Packet]. The phone was not rooted and is a 16GB UK version (model D855). I just seem to be going in circles now trying to find a solution, I suspect somewhere along the line I'm using the wrong combination of programs/TOT/DLL files so I could really do with someone pointing me in the right direction here!
Hello from Sweden!
I have had an LG G3 for quite a while now just laying around due to issues I ran into with it after unsuccessfully rooting it, those issues specifically was Factory Reset Status 2.
I've been reading around that flashing it with stock firmware can work, and that's something I've tried but haven't seemed to have such success with as I've tried both the KDZ method and TOT method.
With the KDZ method, using the LG Flash Tool 2014 I kept on receiving errors that the tool couldn't communicate with servers and I never seem to run into any success no matter the flash mode I chose (CSE or Normal).
When doing the TOT method, however, I seemed to get a bit further (it felt like at least). When running the LG FlashTool v1.8 I selected manual mode, selected the TOT (LGD855AT-V10e-EUR-16G) and DLL file (LGD855_20140526_LGFLASHv160) I had downloaded for the LG G3 D855, I also made sure that I was using the action mode "UPGRADE DL" and the connection method "USB" in the software.
I click on the yellow arrow to continue and "READY!!" shows up on Port 1 and I then replug the phone and "Waiting for connection" shows up in the box and I wait a few seconds and it begins, but almost instantly ends giving me the error "Model information Check failed!".
Honestly, at this point, I am fully unaware of what to try. I am willing to provide more information if required to get assistance with this, I am willing to try almost anything to get this phone working no matter if I lose all data or not.
I'm thankful for all tips I get provided to attempt to fix this.
Can anyone help?
I got an LG G Pad 10.1 V700 a while back that originally was a tablet for a medical office and had a customized launcher that only had kind of like a brochure system on it.
I managed to do an upgrade using LG PC Suite and got the factory system back up and running. It was running great and recently I rooted my Coolpad Catalyst and decided to do the LG pad too. I used Kingoroot.
The Cataylst rooted fine but when I did it on the LG it said it was already rooted. I figure they must have rooted it to make it function like they wanted for the medical office.
Well yesterday I put the app My Spectrum (cable company) on it to see why I was having an internet outage and it complained about the rooting but worked anyway. I remember when I was trying to root my Android head unit in the car using Magisk I found that Magisk has many ways to hide the rooting from apps that don't want to work on a rooted device. So I tried to install Magisk on the tablet and it installed it and gave a button to reboot but when I did it's now stuck on the first LG static screen and on the top left it says "Error: boot certification verify".
I tried to do a hard factory reset using the buttons and click the button yes to do it but it keeps coming back to the static screen and the error.
Does anyone know how I can fix it?
I can't even seem to get my computer to recognize it no matter what LG drivers I use nor do I seem to be able to get the tablet into "download mode" that I've read about in searching for a fix.
All I can get it to do is go into the factory reset which doesn't fix it, some CS and S/N screen, the static LG logo with the Error: boot certification verify on the top left and a non-animated charge screen.
I can't even seem to get the unit to stay off.
Have I hard bricked this damn thing? Is there no way for me to fix it?
Hello, I would like to ask if my LG G3 is softbricked or hardbricked. It has been a long while since it decided to boot loop. I tried to fix it but got no results. I tried to factory reset it, but the next day it didn't turn on anymore and got stuck in the logo. Note : the phone was experiencing some heating issue before it decided to screw itself up. I tried numerous troubleshooting from the net, none worked. I also did try to reinstall the firmware to stock again, it did boot but it can't get to the home screen. I then factory reset it again and tried using another firmware also built for my phone (it's LG G3 D855). It failed again at 33% while it was in the firmware update mode. Now that I have left it for a solid year, I thought that it would be nice to try again. Which I did, but it couldn't charge anymore and it cannot boot to the logo. I tried to go to the download mode but no response. I tried connecting it to my computer, but it only detects my phone as a charge only device, it also detects it on only several random occasion. I hope this is a softbrick and it can be fixed at home so I don't need to go to the store to repair it.
I'm sorry for the long explanation, I had been trying to revive it for months now and had no luck. How do I fix this, at least how do I get to the firmware update download mode again? I really really hope that anyone can help. Thankyou so much in advance.
