[Q] F400S can not enter download mode & recovery - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

after i press power button + vol+ button, it show "download mode is disabled by killswitch", i just put the correct pin to Mcafee but it still show the same message, please help, thank you
F400S
4.4.2 (can not update to 5.0 by OTA / PC Suite:crying

Have you tried to root your phone and remove McAfee completely? That was the first thing that I did on my F400S and F460S.

nothing to cheer up
i also have the same model and "it" also does not go into recovery , i am though able to get it into download, - first load your lg driver and make sure your port is 41 under device manager, once in 41 you can use the flashtool to upload but ONLY A KDZ FILE , that's as much as i got from this site. (btw there is a lollipop kdz file for the k400 floating around, you can use it to flash lollipop but it isn't rooted - i can find the link and if you're successfull at getting lollipop to root with these 2 files, i will really appreciate you help - email me)
the volume down + power just don't work
try pressing volume down + power + volume up and when logo shows up let go volume up for less than a second and let me know if you can decipher the korean page.
this korean page has 3 options but all of them lead to Reboot System., i don't read korean and no one volunteered help.
Also with the phone working i loaded CWM recovery and with it running i was able to flash a lollipop zip file for F400 but this file is not rooted and i couldn't root it so i reflashed back to an older kitkat version
if you're luckier than me, i would appreciate you letting me know how you were able to load the lollipop and root it afterward.
sincerely

[Q] [Help] LG Optimus G E975 bricked and no method is working to solve the issue!!!

Hi devs
I am an unfortunate soul as my recently purchased LGOG E975 just got bricked. The whole story goes like this -
I successfully rooted the phone one week ago and it was working fine until yesterday when I uninstalled the Google Play Movies app via Root Delete app. The problem started when I restarted the phone - it gave a "Security error" on boot and went into restart loop. Worried I searched at Xda forum for the solution and tried the "TeenyBins" method first (here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249500). But it only aggravated the problem - at 85% of process the phone showed as disconnected from LGNPST and after trying many times the same problem persisted (the process never got to 100%). However the method installed TWRP custom recovery in the phone and a Google Logo replaced the LG logo at boot. Phone was normally booting in download mode and custom recovery but the recovery is unable to do anything - it shows as "Failed" whenever I try to wipe any cache, mount any partition, flash any custom ROM (which I pushed via adb) or take backup. Rather it shows "No OS installed" whenever I reboot, power off etc. TWRP is also showing no data inside sdcard via the inbuilt file manager. What is the problem?
Fed up, I tried LG Support tool - phone is successfully detected in "download mode" (everything is shown including the OS version which means OS is intact). I choose "phone recovery" option in LG support tool and it successfully downloaded the stock firmware (about 1.1 GB wait wait and wait) and when it tried to flash the phone it showed as the phone is not connected and instructed to unplug the phone and restart it and then again connect to PC. I followed everything carefully putting the phone in download mode again but again and again same error......Oh God for heavens sake....
Fed up, I then tried this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010624) - downloaded the latest KDZ (>1GB) according to my phone from LG servers and used the KDZ FW Updater to flash the phone but the tool gave error "File extracted error" and I repeated the process again and again but no avail..............here I am, after 48 hours of desperation having a phone with the same **** Google logo on boot and the screen goes black...nothing happens thereafter..
Please forum devs, experts, moderators or any kind soul, I beg you to help me.... :crying:
If yu ve done the second method before instead of lgnpst tool there may b chances of helping yu.... And make sure which bin nd dll file yu flashed...??

OK One question.
Can you get into download mode? Flash MODE?
Follow this
1.Install all drivers LG
2.Download firmware from here http://www.lg-phones.org/official-stock-lg-optimus-g-firmware-rom.html
3.Download http://www.mediafire.com/download/sj5y073xal03ntw/KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.rar
4.Extract KDZ_FW_UPD on desktop
5.Install msxml.exe
6.When done run windows enabler. You will see the icon and left klick on it and choose ON
Now you should se ON at the ICON
7.When done start KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
8.Chose 3GQCT in TYPE and Phone Mode CS_Emergency
9.Then Turn of the Phone. Now hold Vol UP and Vol Down at same time. Hold and plug in the USB cable into your phone
Now you should be in DOWNLOAD mode
10.Now chose your firmware in KDZ File and press Launch Software Update
If it starts to flash dont interrupt it until you see PARAM 1 again. You phone will auto reboot at PAram 95 but dont discconect until you see PARAM 1 again.
If you get bootloop when restart give it 2 min. If it keeps show LG logo then turn of and do FACTORY RESET
Hold Vol up + Power at same TIME i think Now you should get Factory Reset MENU. Now press power again and it should work.
GOOD LUCK

Thanks for your time dear
but I have exactly followed the process you mentioned and unfortunately still got the KDZ extract error. I have downloaded KDZ for my phone from different locations multiple times but none of the KDZ worked with KDZ FW Updater. It looks like the current KDZ FW Updater is unable to handle the large KDZ files (>1GB) of newer phones while it works fine for older smaller KDZs. In this way this updater is a bit outdated. I request the developers to please update this wonderful tool to make it compatible with latest KDZs.
Try using kdz from romania,it has 982 mb and it's 10D.

But i flashed mine KDZ and its above 1GB and it extracted without issue. It must be something with your PC or something.
Mine extracted without issues
I think you have CORRUPT DOWNLOADS.
Do you unzip the KDZ file from the RAR? Or do you point KDZ Updater to the RAR file? You must unpack RAR so you file will be shown as E97510B_00.KDZ this is the Europe Open Version.
Remember if you unrar the file check if any errors coming when unpacking. If so then your RAR is corrupted and you need to redownload.
'did you RUN Updater as ADMIN?
Download this version of the KDZ European Open

I have the .KDZ file and not .rar but I did not run the program as admin so will try again. It may be a corrupt download so will download again.
One question though, my phone is E97510E_00 (Indian version) so can I flash with the 10B open Europ. version KDZ you mentioned above?
Basically all firmwares are identical.the only differences are operator related. If you can find what are the 4g/lte frequencies of your operator,i could tell you what europe firmware to flash.if you don't have/want 4g,i guess you could flash the latest 10D european kdz without problems.

Mate just flash EU version so you can have working phone. If you sucess you can seek for answer later to flash indian ver.

exactly same problem!
hello my friend,
i have exactly the same problem as you with the same results.today ill try doing this in a desktop and see if the extract problem is gone...it drives me crazy.
please if yu fing something write it here...you ll save me!thank you!
p.s. i have f180 U+ edition
ok i found solution combining all of what i ve read..(and read a lot)
1)find a custom rom (i used avatar) but unzip it and go to \META-INF\com\google\android and open updater script with notepad.Delete this "(assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "e975" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "e975");"
then save the file.
go to first folder that u unzipped and take MetaInf,boot img and system and put them in a new zip.
2)so since u have twrp in your telephone,push with adb the zip from step 1 inside the phone (how to push a rom here)
3)the phone will normally open when you reboot.if you dont have signal go here and download your phones modem.Copy it through your pc to your phone and then reboot again to recovery mode and install this file(do not unzip it)
clear cache,do a factory reset and in the next boot you ll be allright!

Hi,
Really excited, but can u please tell me the step by step procedure. My phone is a F180L korean Sim and i really dont know which is my actual make.. i mean like E973 or E975. I bought this phone to india and unfortunately its U+ sim locked and i was unable to use this phone in indian networks. Hence after going trough this forum, i learned how to change a firmware and how to convert this phone to E975 and i downloaded one for india from the official LG site and there were KDZ extraction error. i tried it with the LG PC sync method and its showing the memory is low and free up some space in the memory. but after downloading a firmware for Europe, i could update my phone into E975, but my indian sim is not getting connected. So i request everyone for a solution. I tried many things already and soft bricked many times.. luckily i could recover it using LG support.
SO KINDLY TELL US HOW U DID IT WITH THE AVATAR ROM AND WHAT DO U MEAN BY \META-INF\com\google\android.
Many thanks

so this is what i did.
1.use LGNPST prog with the small file for installing TWRP in your phone (see how here)
2.Download a custom ROM.I used this.The file will be in ZIP format/
3.copy your rom in a new folder.Rightclick on ROM and press extract here.The extracted files will be 2 folders (METAINF,SYSTEM) and boot.img.Open META-INF\com\google\android (these are folders) and there will be a file "updater script ".Right click on this file and select open with notepad.Then delete the following " (assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "e975" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "e975"); ".Press ctrl+s to save the file.
4.Go to the starting folder,select again METAINF,SYSTEM and boot.img ,right click them and press add to archive(with winrar).In there give a name and be sure to select zi compression.So this new ZIP you've just created is the new ROM.
5.Now you have to send the ZIP you created to your phone.This can be done with ADB push.To read how to do it please read here
6.Once you transfer that file into phone you have to disconnect your phone and press vol+ button and then power on.This is FASTBOOT.Press 2 time the vol- button so it says RECOVERY MODE.Then press the power button and wait to open the TWRP menu.
7.Now that you are in TWRP select wipe and wipe dalvik,cache and do factory reset.Then go to install and youll see the pushed ZIP file that you transfered before.Click on this and press install.
8.After a while it will write that is done.Do a reboot and the new ROM will be fine.
9.If it opens and you dont have signal go to this site here and download the modem for your phone.Mine worked with Korean version modem.I dont know what you should install for Pakistan unfortunatelly.So when you download it,send it in your phone through usb connection (now your phone works,no need of ADB push) and then go to TWRP in recovery mode and install modem like the way you installed the ROM before.Wipe data again and do a factory reset and then your phone should be ok.
BTW you have to know that these ROMS have some bugs but you can do epic customization and the guys always update the rom over the air to do it more stable.
If you have any question feel free to make them!Good luck!

I didn't tried this yet as i did a different method and i am using it on trial basis. is it works.. then i am more than happy enough to continue... let me explain what i did.. I have rooted my F180L korean U+ sim unlocked phone with motochopper. After rooting the same, then i unlocked my bootlocker with freegee-beta (many thanks to Shell). Then i downloaded a kdz file (E97510D_00.kdz , Europe Open) from the LG server. then i updated the same by putting my phone in download mode (volume up+volume down + USB connected + power ON) and updated with KDZ updated program.. after quite some time my phone got rebooted with E975 Europe Open firmware. Even after this i was unable to get indian network in the phone. So Using Rom manager, i downloaded CyanogenMod 10.1 Rom with GApps and flashed my ROM again. Now my phone is getting connected with indian network. but the problem i am facing is with my network not getting registered... i can find about 12 networks in my phone but unable to register into any of them...Need help from u guys...
Thanks in advance

Finally I got the problem solved and my phone back !!
Unfortunately nothing worked for me as suggested by you, guys may be I was doing something wrong or else.
Finally I decided to contact LG Service Center in my city and after initial try they told me that "the phone is not getting connected in flashing mode" and I had to submit the phone to them. Next day they called me and told that there is a hardware problem and a "part/PCB" will be replaced within next 7 days. And today they called me again with the good news - your phone has been repaired and I can pick it up anytime. Elated I got the phone within an hour, live and kicking. Thank God I got my loving phone back and most importantly they did not detected that the phone was rooted and thus out of warranty. Lucky me!!! :laugh:
Any way thanks everyone for your prompt help....:good:

maybe you hae to try diferent modems for the mobile phone until you find the right one.Mine works with the Korean modem although i live in Greece.You may have to find exactly in what frquency your provider works and then see where in the world a provider has exasctly the same frequency as yours,and then download the modem drivers from the LGOGs that work in this country.
Hope it works!

well this is the best choice,even if they say that if you root your mobile phone,you lose the guarantee.But its a bit difficult for me to do that since i ordered the mobile phone from Chine and i live in Greece!So i should give away my phone a long time to get fixed and i cant wait!XD

You are absolutely correct. The problem for me was with the Modem for sure. I flashed with a Nexus 4 modem in my phone and i could register network in my phone. but the problem now is that the signal is very weak. I tried flashing many modems like E970 Att, then E973 Tellus and few more.. but i couldnt get a better signal. if the signal is good, then the sim is not getting registered. i tried to search for an indian modem for E975 which i couldnt find.. moreover i am unable to download the indian/thailand/hongkong firmwares from LG official site as its saying that the Access is denied. Please help me with those links as i am really desperate to use my phone...
Thanks again

[Q] Stuck at fast boot LG G3 F400L

Hi all,
Long time user first time posting a thread [sorry couldn't help myself]
Anyway I have a LG G3 F400L and I accidentally installed D855 rom on to it [AndroidNow_HD_8.0_Lollipop].
I have tried flash tool to flash the correct firmware but to no effect it now detects it as D855, so I cant install the F400L firmware using the F400L dll. I am installing an older firmware i.s 10e I have also tried 20f for F400L but the new flash tool doesn't recognize my phone, I have tried different USB ports and a different PC with Windows 7 32bit still nothing.
I am using Windows 8.1 64bit.
Regards and thank you for the help.
Anyone, please help.

Thank you for the response. I do not have access to recovery, only download mode works.
Update: I have tried using a general Dll to flash TOT file via flashtool but it doesn't let me error CrossDl [D855] to [F400L].
I had this and I set for 4 hours figuring out how to fix it. ( I had not accsess to the download mode first only to hard reset which didn't work and the "Fastboot mode started")
If you have access to the Download mode that's perfect, Follow this Tut:http://lgg3root.com/lg-g3-root/how-to-unrootunbrick-lg-g3/
Please make sure you download the correct TOT file for your phone.

Thank you that did work sort of, I was doing the same thing but someone in the comments referred to a modded DLL for the flash which did the job to some extent at least.
Its back to stock but stuck at McAfee activation, requires a pin which I do not have nor have ever created one, and now a Kill switch has been engaged and no more download mode. Out of the fire into the frying pan is what I feel like right now 100hours and 33mins without my G3, but who is counting.
That's sucks where did the McAfee activation came from??
Have you tried a hard reset ? or can you access the fastboot mode again ?

Nothing, no download mode or recovery. Boots up asks for language selection and then McAfee pops up of PIN. I am talking to McAfee support hopefully they can help.
Goodluck with that!
Thank you all.
Finally fixed. Just needed to be quick, the McAfee app gives you about 30 secs to do your thing then it pops up for pin. I opened up the McAfee app -> setting and changed the pin .

Helpp!!! I just flashed a custom for f400 not for my model "f460s"

HELPPPPPPPP!
I just flashed a custom rom for F460 and guess what? Its not for F460S but for F400 (Uploader gave the link under F460!)
As of now the phone is stock at "Fastboot Mode Started" at the upper left part of the screen. I cant seem to access recovery but I con go to download mode.
Tried flashing .TOT of F460s, but no luck, says download failed
Tried flashing .KDZ of F460s, still no luck,(After Normal Flash/CSE Flash, it just return to Flash Tool)
As of now, Im downloading .TOT of F400 and will try going to Download Mode - Flashtool - then flash .TOT of F400.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH GUYS. Will appreciate every bit of help! :crying: :crying: :crying:
Are u sure that you're using the correct way for tot files ? Coz its the best and safiest way and should work no matter about the condition .. Make sure you're using the right files

It's probably been too long for you to need an answer now, but recovery mode can be accessed by pressing the power and volume down buttons simultaneously until you see the LG screen. As soon as you see the screen, release the buttons, then immediately press them down again and hold them until recovery is accessed.

DemiGod Crash Handler: Kernel Crash

I recently discovered the possibility of flashing custom rome to my LG G3. I flashed Resurrection Remix(5.1.1), and was told that Liquid smooth(5.0.1) has better battery life. I proceeded to download the rom (I didn't download Gapps because i already had Gapps from resurrection remix) to my SD card. I charged my phone up to 100%, booted to custom recovery( TWRP), backed up every thing, wiped(factory reset), and flashed the rom. Up until here everything went fine. When I was going to flash the Gapps I saw that they are for android 5.1 and decided I would skip that and continue to install them after I boot and download the correct files.
I proceeded to boot into system, I saw the LG boot logo, the liquid smooth boot animation started, and then I got this screen:

On this page(http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-liquidsmooth-v4-0-t2955089) the OP states:"Some users Report that the normal variant also give kernel crash to 2GB RAM models. So make sure to make backup before flashing, i try to fix, but i can just blind fix because i own the 3GB RAM model." Since you have the 2gb model you seem to have this issue. I guess read through the thread and see if there is a fix available...or maybe try a different d855 kernel? (I have a vs985 so I can't give any info/advice on that)
Or just use a different ROM. LS hasn't been updated in a while...unfortunately...I kinda miss it.

After a full day of reading tutorials on the internet and playing with the buttons on my Phone (to enter any mode).. I was finally able to enter recovery.
I pressed volume down to reboot, and then while the screen was black I pressed the power button and the volume down together, and as soon as I saw the LG logo I released the buttons and immediately pressed them again. After that I got into an LG screen (might be download mode?), that asked if I want to restore back to stock, I said no and then it rebooted into recovery, from there I flashed resurrection remix again and my phone booted normally.
Hi! I had the same problem with my LG G3 (Sprint LS990/3GB). I took it in to Sprint repair because it would not boot and when I came back they showed me this error on the screen then told me that it is rooted I would have to call a third party repair place. I could have swron I unrooted the thing but anyways. Problem is when I tryed to reboot it to go into dl mode the phone will not stay on for more than 20 secs, making it impossible to recover it. Has anyone else had this problem?
When i was on blisspop i had same problem so i flashed cm12 but the problem was not fixed but after flashing cloudyg3 everything works fine also on blisspop, now its 7-8month never had kernel crash again, So basically flash any stock based rom. But it will be more better if u flash kdz or tot from lg flash tool.

When this kernel crash occurs, it can not boot to Download Mode or recovery mode. How can you flash to Cloudyg3 without recovery mode??

It didn't apply on me.. I have remove the battery million time and left the battery off over night. It keep boot in Kernel Crash mode. On the Kernel Crash mode, it has a option to enter the Dload mode by press the up volume key. It keep hang in Kernel Crash mode, after i pressed. Any another suggestion or anyone ?
Maybe I should consider hard bricked and using qhusb 9008 fix
Fix for me: Remove battery and put back, power on (several times) --> then the green screen gone away - now i can use the phone normally.
My situation:
- LG G3 D855 (international)
- Error: restart constantly
- Then I install another stock os wih Europe version
- Then it run well (4-5 hours) before getting the green screen
- ... (search in forum and google)
- Finally I foud that way to fix it.
That's all for the end

I really think this is a hardware related problem. Some success with all of these various methods, but even if it boots to a workable android, eventually it freezes. There are no real solutions, but to open the phone, and find the offending parts. Maybe some heatsink grease( there was always a lot of heat by the buttons, and camera module). Best thing that's happened, is it stayed on, til I turned it off, then it was back to the demigod when I turned it back on again. Seems like it's a problem with all LG phones.

Yes I have this problem with my LG G3 now. Looking for a fix. Wont stay in download mode long enough to do anything.
I had this too (with AT&T D850). I tried a lot of stuff. Putting the phone in the freezer for a few min and directly afterwards flashing actually allowed me to successfully flash stock via download mode but it would go back to crashing shortly after that. Ultimately I could not solve it, apparently it was a hardware issue.

Personally i don't really like flashify or any other similar apps.But as you are a beginner at all these follow this simple steps.
Can you boot your phone?
Try using the official App provided by TWRP
Go to Google Play Store and search Official TWRP app,download
Go to the application and select "TWRP Flash" option,after that select your device model and then select the latest TWRP version(3.0.2.0 or 3.0.3.0).
After all these click the bottom Download TWRP.
That's all.

I see that you have messed a lot with your system partitions.
I'll try to find something helpful.
Till then try checking if you can use system upgrade.(To go for example to lollipop while it may save your phone and also be able to flash the correct laf.img)
Question:After you finished the procedure on flashing the laf.img(for d851)(also you can flash the 10d laf.img as the OP said in the guide)did you pull the battery out and Boot to download mode(manually)?
How to get to Download Mode
yes i did try to boot into dl mode manually..

You also did pull the battery after flashing laf.img(10d) for D851 Model?
So... I think that after you tried doing all these and nothing worked, you'll be unable to get Download mode back,but let me check some of the system partitions and check if you can manually insert the laf.img file.
Somehow you can insert the laf file to your phone but it needs extracting (the laf.img) to get the proper file.
I found the location of the laf file.
But if anyone can be found with D851 can send the laf file here for you.
Two other solutions are:
1.Staying without dl mode? Maybe.
2.Buying a new motherboard.
