Lg g2 wont turn on - Sprint LG G2

Im having trouble turning on my lg g2. My phone died last night and is unresponsive if I dont have it plugged in (like a normal dead phone) however, when it is plugged in the LG boot logo appears but then disappears after about 4 seconds followed by the red light blinking a couple of times and then the cycle repeats. I had my phone charging all night and i woke up to it still being in this cycle.
A couple of side notes:
I can enter download mode, although i am unsure if my computer is able to recognize the device
I am rooted
I cant enter recovery mode. the closest i have gotten is the "recovery mode screen.." then the phone powers off.
my device is an ls980 on sprint
Any help is appreciated and I am willing to factory reset as a last resort

did u find aby solution? as I am having same problem wont tun on or charge at all

If you can enter download mode, do it and see if the computer recognizes it. If it does then go ahead and flash the stock firmware using LG Flash Tool. If it doesn't install the LG drivers found on XDA.

Bricked Phone?

Yesterday I was backing up my phone through the third party recover screen when my phone shut off during the recover (I think I may have hit the power button?). Now when I try to start the phone when it's not plugged in I don't get any response from the phone. I can get to the fast boot screen but selecting recover mode just leads to a grey screen that says google on it for a second then the screen shuts off. I tried the LGNPST recovery method but the phone gets stuck in a loop at 67% where it shows the LG logo, the screen shuts off for a moment then back to the LG logo again. I've tried all the methods I can get my hands on, does anyone have any alternatives?
I thought I'd update this so that people that google their symptoms and come here have an answer.
I can't link to the youtube video but its called "Disconnect Battery LG Optimus G Sprint"
Pulling the battery fixed everything after installing the stock rom from LGNPST
Thanks to the folks in the IRC for help!

Bricked Phone! - Dead - HELP!!

Hi guys, I'm gonna tell you what happened with my S4 to see if you can help me.
I got a MetroPCS Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919N) then I went to a tech and unlocked it. After 2 days the screen started blinking in pink color and I decided to flash it with a stock ROM from T-Mobile (SGH-M919-TMB-M919UVUAMDL-1366964131) using ODIN. Everything was great, in a couple of days the screen went kinda black (No brightness at all) I could barely see it. In this state with the phone turned off and tried to plug in to the PC or charge it and started blinking in green color. I decided once again to flash it with the stock ROM mentioned above but the phone won't enter in recovery or download mode after that I tried to flash it with the CyanogenMOD Installer......everything was OK but it stuck in about 75%, left the phone connected for 20min aprox and nothing happened. I unplugged it and tried to turn it on (It vibrates but I get no startup sound, logo, boot, anything!) ODIN doesn't recognized anymore, can't enter in recovery or download.
I tried to reboot download with ADB to flash it with ODIN but usb debugging is not enabled and ADB commands doesn't work.
I don't know what to do with my S4, I hope you guys can help me. I'm not in the US so I can't return it for replacement.
I hope to hear from you soon. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

[Q] LG G3 stuck at firmware update

My wifes LG G3 got the lollipop update (I presume) but it got stock at 22% at the firmware update screen. After 2 hours my wife apparently got tired of it and took the battery out. The phone now repeats the procedure on boot and instead gets stuck at 23%.
What can be done here? Stock unrooted.
ps: googled for a good 15 minutes before posting but found little information on what to do.
Can you enter in download mode?
Turn off the phone and press Volume Up + power and hold
I get "Hardware key control mode" menu cancel mode on mode off. Seems unrelated to download mode?
Not related.
I believe your only hope is repair shop.
You have waranty?
Yeah she still has warrenty and it hasn't ever been rooted so should be fine. The problem was more of the nature wife needing phone NOW
I GOT DOWNLOAD MODE. Did the UP+connect usb cable instead, how do I use this to unbrick the little sucker?
Flash KDZ manually.
You can find files and tutorial here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
In fact download mode only worked once, then it stopped working stopping at the lg logo screen. Guess it's just to go to the repairshop tomorrow
I too am facing the same problem. I connected the phone to my PC on which I have the LG PC Suite installed.
The suite prompted for a firmware update for which I clicked. The download took forever and then the update started but during the process the phone had to restart after the first part and the phone keeps repeating its logo with music.
The suite is downloading another update (possibly the second part), but this will also take forever and I don't know whether the phone battery will hold up with its perpetual logo start-up.
This is real crappy my wife's phone just ended up at the shop. 4 weeks to get it back. Thanks LG.

LG G3 Shuts off after boot

Hello everyone
So about a week ago I restarted my phone and all of the sudden after the Verizon logo appeared it shut down on me. I didn't know what was wrong so I went into TWRP recovery to erase the internal memory and start from scratch but that didn't work either. After the Verizon logo pops up it'll shut down. I can't restart it without taking out the battery. I tried to go into download mode and install the original software but that didn't work either. It'll go into download mode but then again it shuts off. The phone shows up as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 in the drivers and not LG. I'm guessing it's soft bricked but since it keeps shutting down after boot I have no idea what to do.
Hey Any solution yet? I've had a crap ton of problems with my G3 and just today, it froze, shut down and won't tun on without removing and re-inserting the battery...but the thing is after it the lg logo pops up for about 8 seconds, it shuts down. I can't even get into recovery mode.

Late reply but I can't connect to either wifi or data. The phone literally gets to the verizon screen then shuts off. I tried to reinstall the firmware but that doesn't even work since the phone can't stay booted for longer than 10 seconds. It won't show up in my computer.
Change the battery buy a new one guys
I have exactly the same problem. I had my LG G3 for over a year, sometimes it shut off after heavy use but yesterday it just started shutting off during boot, it won't pass the LG logo screen.
I tried putting 2 other perfectly working batteries (tested with other phone) and it didn't work.
Now it simply won't turn on completely!
we have to take it to LG about this, I didn't expect to have a high-end phone die just after the warranty expires just like that!
if anyone has a solution or a possible cause to this problem I would highly appreciate it.

[Q] Bricked LG G3

Hello guys,
2 days ago my phone randomly bricked itself. It wasn't rooted or anything, everything on it was stock (I've been using it for 2 years).
Before the brick, I had the screen flickering issue, my WiFi stopped working and the sound also (this happened during a period of 2 months) - during this period my battery started draining very fast, I could use the phone for max 2 hours per day (stand-by or use, doesn't matter).
So 2 days ago I ran out of battery and left the phone to charge during the night. When I woke up, I tried to turn the phone on but at first It got stuck at the PIN insertion, and after rebooting it twice it just got stuck in a boot loop.
So what I did was follow the TOT guide and tried to flash a stock rom. All went well until I tried to do a factory reset before initial boot - I got a kernel crash and my phone is unable to enter download mode since this moment (the loading screen shows up, and once it loads the screen goes black and my phone is recognized as qualcomm. etc).
At this moment I found about BoardDiag and used the software in order to try to repair my phone. Everything works well with BoardDiag, but once it finishes it's job reboots, I get kernel crashes yet again and I am still unable to enter download mode (It's like the program didn't do anything and the phone just reverts itself to It's previous state).
So is this a hardware issue or am I doing something wrong?
Anyone?

this is the best method so far.
replace your battery as known to cause corruption boot problems when dying
Also try this..... download LG mobile support tool and install + run, ignore start upgrade > battery out > battery in (dont power on) USB cable in pc not phone > hold volume up plug in usb to phone, you will get download mode in blue in box on phone > now on pc > LG mobile support tool > choose options then UPGRADE RECOVERY. will take 57+ mins to complete (over 1 hour) it might seem stuck frozen at 10% to 22% it's not just wait it out...

As I said in the thread, I've already tried this but when the phone reboots and when I try to enter download mode again the phone is not being recognized again.
