Hello,
I recently just got the unlocked LG G3, used to have an iphone so pretty new to the Android software itself. It froze while I was playing music so I did a hard reset and with that the firmware was updated to Lollipop. Calling, messaging, and music didn't work so I attempted to downgrade my LG G3 using Flashtool (Followed exact steps on here androidexplained/howtodowngradeLgG3, can't put URL because I'm a new user) and I used the Bell firmware (I'm sure the phone is originally from Bell because they had pre-installed apps). Everything went smoothly to the very end, however it got stuck on the screen where the LED light is flashing and the logo of LG continously shines (is this boot-loop?). I've tried using PC Suite to reset the software however it doesn't recognize my phone. Is there any suggestions you would recommend me?
Thank you for the help

Try to re-flash it again with the LG Flashtool and be sure to follow all steps correctly. It should work. Don't disconnect the phone until the process is finished. If the process freezes at 85% it's ok, it means the phone is rebooting and wait until you see a blue screen with a "3" on it. Then disconnect the phone and take out the phone's battery and put it in again. It should boot correctly. The first time to boot is always a bit longer. Just be patience.

My device is rooted with towelroot, I installed supersu afterwards...
before bootloop I installed fontexplorer, and installed few fonts, it asked me to reboot, i rebooted, and now it just bootloop's all the time, LG animation and vibration, I can't get into fastmode, tried all kinds of button combinations..
When I try to factory reset, after pressing yes it shows erasing, and then it's stuck on boot logo, not animation..
Download mode is stuck also, just shows 0% but at least then pc's device manager shows com device found
How to fix this ?
All this happened after I rebooted my phone, before rebooting I installed few fonts with Font Installer ★ Root ★(com.jrummy.font.installer) app
THIS guide will help, you've softbricked, only in this guide you will of course need the dll and tot files for your phone and not Sprint. As long as phone comes on,computer recognizes it, and, it goes into dl mode, you should be good.

G3s to me are finicky about changing or modifying. I modified one build prop setting, rebooted, same thing as op, mine wasn't bootlooping tho, but stuck on the big red 2 screen. Flashtool is your only friend at this point.

Wow, I can't believe I fixed it, I thought it's impossible
I just went into download mode and used LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash to stock firmware..

I think I read back when I was unbricking that .KDZ files have to be converted to .tot, to use with this version of Flashtool.
Quick Question
Hey guys,
I am a bit of a rookie with rooting and i have an LG G3 for tmobile. I rooted my phone and had TWRP installed and accidentally attempted to install a software update and it soft bricked my phone. Here is my problem-all of the solutions i am finding for this issue require a PC, and I, unfortunately, am only running on mac software. I have no way to get lg flash on my mac and to make it comparable with my phone. Is there ANYONE who can help me? I am at my wits end and CANNOT believe I was so stupid as not to make a backup flash but I, as per usual, did not think about it at the time. If anyone could help me, I will be forever in your debt.

I believe you can run virtual Windows on a Mac, not sure if it works with Flashtool though.

Unable to boot my rooted LG G3 S (beat), stuck at lg logo.
hello everyone. I recently rooted my lg g3 s (beat) D722K. After a few weeks I was trying to install apps as system apps using ES file explorer for which I had to copy the desired apk in the system/apps directory and restart the phone. it worked for a few apps (which I successfully made sys. apps) but not for a majority of apps . Everything was fine until now . After that I wanted to normally install an apk but the phone was unable to install it showing ' application not installed' . Then I tried to install other apps but got the same result . I decided to reboot my phone but it got stuck on lg logo and won't boot .
I tried to factory reset it using hardware keys but after wiping all the phone data it again got stuck on the same sucking LG logo .
I also tried to update firmware by connecting it to windows(8.1) pc in download mode which didn't work either. The firmware download got stuck at 0% everytime I tried.
please help me in getting out of this issue . I will heartily appreciate any help regarding this issue.
thanks.. in advance.
So Long Story,
Monday November 24, I Changed Out Battery Go To Restart Phone, Phone Wont Boot Stuck On LG Screens And Constantly Retrying. Tuesday Night November 25, I ReInstall Factory Firmware For G3 D852 – With Success – Phone Working. Wednesday November 26, I Decide To Root & Install TWRP – With Success – Phone Working No Issues. Friday November 28, This Is Where Sh*t Hits The Fan! I Get Crazy & Attempt To Install ChupaChups Lollipop Rom With TWRP – Seemingly Successful Install But After Reboot Wont Boot Stuck In Fast Boot. So I Attempt To Resolve This Following Other Forum Posts Using FastBootOV – WITHOUT Success – Now When Attempting To Boot Phone LG Screen Comes Up Top Left Corner Says “ERROR Boot Certification Verify” Below That Says “590 Secure Booting ERROR!” Then Black Screen With Flashing Red & Blue LED. I Attempted To ReInstall Factory Firmware For D852 With LG Flashtool Attempt Fails Stating Wrong Model Number – Phone States On Screen Near Bottom Now D855 Ver5.0 Below That D85520A.
Finally Success With Phone December 28, After Countless Hours Trying to Find Some Shred Of Info To Resolve This Including Posting Here For Help Without A Response. I Proceed To Attempt To Reinstall Factory Firmware For D852 - Failed Same Result Wrong Model Number D855. Actual Model D852. I Then Decided F**K It Ill Install D855 Factory 32G Firmware UK Version Why Not? At This Point Phones A Paper Weight In This Time Had To Purchase Another Phone (So I Dont Lose My Mind) - All Available Information Points To Send In For Warranty. So I Do So Again Attempting To Install The D855 UK Firmware Failed To Install Using LG FlashTool, This Time Stating Partition Errors. So I Find After Random Searching & Random Reading Of Everything LG G3. I Find A Generic LG G3 DLL File (LGUP_8974.DLL). Using The Generic LG G3 DLL & Factory Firmware D852 With LG FlashTool - This Time Working Up To 89%, Phone Reboots Shows Large 2, Crossing My Fingers Waiting For The Large 3. What Actually Pops Up Is A Large 0. I Attempt To Reboot Phone Goes To Mini OS, Set Phone To Reboot Normally - AND SUCCESS!!!!!! Factory OS Boots Up, The Usual YADAYADA Setup.
So Thats All, A Long Winded Story BUT Now There Seems To A Cure To Flashing WRONG Model G3 Roms To Your Device.
Hope This Works For Everyone - I Have Devoted Coutless Hours Trying to Avoid Sending My Phone In.
Good Luck!!

Man, this was a long story but I am so glad you have posted this. I always wondered what would happen if I by mistake flash the wrong file (diff model), and now I know. Can you please send me the link to the info and the files, just in case I end up where you were (email: elmspace at gmail dot com), I would appreciate it.
Thanks man. I was just wondering what is going to happen to my LG g3 D856 variant if i flash D855 kdz. Now um not gonna do that. Let's not flash any rom. I successfully rooted and am using D858HK twrp ( yeah D858HK) successfully.
hi hi
hi hi same problem after i want to root the phone my LG G3 D852 my phone stuck on fastboot mode blackscreen ,my pc see it like Android bootloader Interface BUT no other programs see it try lg flash tool or lg repair tool or cmd command nothing they don't see my G3 HELP HELP PLEASE
Sorry for the no response on this problem , got the same problem last year by flashing the d850 rom to a d852 model but this solution is not recommended. It works sometimes (was working with mine but I bring it to LG because the motherboard dies for no reason after one month of use lol) but the installation can go wrong and destroy your motherboard.
Envoyé de mon LG-D852 avec XDA Forums Pro.
Holy hell I ran into the same issue and spent countless hours getting my D852 back to life after flashing the wrong ROM. I found this and sure enough it came back!

I flashed my LG G3 Because i felt that the sound was not working anymore and that it can be a software issue which it was a hard ware issue ( loud speaker wasnt connected because of screw) Anyways preformed the stock FW Flash following the guide that highonandroid provided to go completely back to a stock rom. After flashing i restart phone and the boot takes forever until it finally hangs on the tmobile screen. there was a point where i left it over night to see if it will turn on but it still hung for a good 8 hours. Ive done everything i can which can be that i preformed atleast hundreds of hard resets but nothing is working.. there was a point where i did manage to turn it on then i tried updating to lolipop and when it reboots the bootloop is back.. Please help!
I assume you opened the back to fix the speaker issue. Did you make sure all connectors are tight?

Use this method for returning to stock...
[Guide] LG G3 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ & TOT Method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
Same problem here, but here the device is G3 Liger F490L.
Today I was trying to install a custom rom, but I messed it up and had to reset it to stock rom.
After that I reseted it back to stock rom, I rooted my phone with Kingroot and used this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=b007.autorecd855 to install recovery. After that I powered off my phone and now it won't turn on. Already removed battery a plenty of times, when putting in the charger nothing happens, pc won't see it also.
The only moment when my phone lights up is when I remove my battery and put it in the charger, then it basically says that it's charging but with no battery in it. Also when removing the battery and connecting to my pc it only sees it as a unrecognizable device.
Suggestions on what I can do? IF not, poor me, gonna buy a new smartphone then.
Btw, I still have some garanty. Maybe it's worth sending it to the support services.

You used wrong autorec install LP recovery to MM. Download MM version autorec from LG G3 Xda forum. Try flash back to stock or something else. Instructions are in LG G3 Xda forum if you search more. Sorry.

Hmm, I was really sure that I used the right one.
Anyway, how can I flash it again if I can't even get the lg logo to show, neither get him in download mode or that my pc recognises him?
Btw, I still have some garanty. Maybe it's worth sending it to lg.
If you have no access to any recovery mode, Fastboot or download mode.then use the method of Qualcomm 9008.btw your warranty is void because you have rooted device and messed with it.

I also had same issue and I'm also sure that I used the correct Autorec version.
I sent the phone to LG because the warranty is still valid.

i remember after 1 day of having this phone this happened this was likely caused by having the latest boot loader i remember this because i fresh installed the marshmallow kdz after that i installed autorec mm it told me to restart and my phone died there, however after spending 8 hours straight i found a solution the smart boot diagnostics tool can write an older version of the boot loader understand that your phone must be in the qdloader9008 mode, if your PC doesn't detect the phone make sure you install the drivers in the zip from the download install the 32 bit if on 32 bit system or install 64 bit on 64 bit system. Hey if you need assistance on doing this Download team viewer and i'll be more than welcome to help unbrick our d855

Hello, I wanted to unroot my phone from SuperSU, using the Fully unroot thingy that it has. After letting it be for awhile i realized it was just only at the bootup screen where the LG logo is and blue light was slowly blinking. Now I've tried LG flash tool to get me back to factory settings and I've tried different .kdz files, none of them seems to work. Furthest I got: I saw the firmware's name on my phone screen for a few seconds and then it dissappeared. Always LG Flash Tool fails after 9% and it says "Upgrade stopped due to an error." I have no idea what to do anymore with my phone. Any help is appreciated! Computer only recognises my phone when it's in firmware update mode.
