Hi, i have a strange problem. i have been using alot of roms.changing different roms off and on. but i thought of trying original 187 kdz file. then i rooted it. removed inwanted programes and it was functioning great. but when i wanted to use 3G net,it was not shifting from G to 3G service. i tried alot of methods but failed.
then i installeted cm 6.0.4.5 and tried to install sphinx rom. it booted normally but stuck at setup screen. then started boot looping. i again flashed. but same thing. now i am able to install 4.2.2 but not 4.1.2 some how. 4.2.2 color os rom is working great but not 4.1.2 rom. i have repeated kdz flashing rooting bit no avail.
any advice suggestion.
Hey Guys
So I was rooted with a Kitkat 4.4.2 Custom rom "SR Remix" and T-mobile pushed the lollipop OTA updated to my phone. I did the stupid thing of restarting and installing, From there my phone only reboots into the TWRP menu.
I've tried flashing the old kitkat rom, and also restoring my phone via LG flash tool using the TOT file. However this does nothing. I keep getting a can't switch to downloading and then the flashing fails. I have tried all the methods that forum have to offer but still not luck?
Can Anyone help.
Thanks
GH
Well. Soon after I posted this I decided to use the .kdz method and it worked...
Hello guys,
It's been a while since the last time I visited the SGS3 section, over a year ago I remember updating the bootloader in order to upgrade/flash to 4.4.4 which went very smooth and was a success. I gave the phone to a sibling who has been very happy with it for the last year and a half. Lately, the phone has been very unstable with the 4.4.4 KitKat ROM, WiFi doesn't turn on, Bluetooth is unstable, Unstable apps/Force closes. I tried a wipe/factory restore and re-flashed the ROM but the problems persisted.
I did a little research and liked what CyanogenMod is doing and since they are actively supporting the phone I decided to flash CM12.1 and the provided Open Google-Apps, CM12.1 flashed successfully but Open Google-apps refused to install, CWM displayed (Section 6) error which upon research it is common with CWM and the solution is to flash TWRP. I booted with CM12.1 in order to install TWRP Manager through the APK and flash TWRP but it force-closed when it searched for the device model. WiFi was working but Bluetooth was still unstable.
I would like to know what would be the best way to proceed in this case, I would like to upgrade the recovery to TWRP and flash CM12.1 or any other stable Lollipop ROM.
Thanks,
Oscar

"err on the side of kindness"
As title says when I flash or install a recovered LG based rom the handset gets into a bootloop. Lollipop or MM doesn't matter.
I see the BIOS type of screen for a few seconds then 3 seconds of boot animation and back to BIOS.
Cyanogenmod 13 based roms work just fine.
background: After receiving MM ota update rooted and downgraded to lollipop. Installed a modem file in the process as well.
Then I decided that I don't like it either. FLashed cyanogenmod straightaway.
Then flashed genesys rom which is LG based 6.0.1.
Still no problems.
Installed xposed framework and the bootloops started.
Then I run the xposed uninstall script, wipe everything and install LG MM rom. bootloop again.
Sorry for the long post. Didn't know which detail is relevant so wrote it all
Any help would be much appreciated as I am stuck with cyanogen...
Try to go back to stock with lgup
lgup doesn't recognize the handset when CM is installed.
Anyway finally found a solution after trying every trick in the book. Basically flashing modem, boot and bootloader solved the problem.
Now I need to find a way to flash xposed framework without bricking the phone.
Hello guys,
I managed again to brick my phone.
I flashed Fulmics as I wanted to swap from those not fully stable nougat roms. Well, I have no idea what caused my problem - Fulmics run without prolbems for a 2 or 3 days including xposed etc.
Then today I changed my ChromePie options and that's when the reboots began. I don't know if this the real cause was though.
So I tried to flash another rom but always got random reboot even in recovery after few minutes/seconds. So I went all the way back to stock rom (4.4.2) with LG Flash tool - which worked after a few tries. Then I installed MM rom via .kdz file and flash tool 2014, which also worked after a few more tries. But then the reboots started again. Can't say if the 4.4.2 rom was without boots because I updated to 6.0 quite quickly.
The strange thing is that after some reboots phone won't boot again and I have to take and leave out the battery for some time to boot the phone again.
Any solutions for my problems?
Best regards
..bumped into the same 1/2 year ago. Didn't want to put to much effort so,..went to stock and back, worked for me.
Good luck.

Which stock and how did you go back?
As mentioned I already went back to stock but the issue kept occuring.
Hi, got the same problem with my G3
wi fi and bluetooth didn't work and phone loop rebooted
Here below the steps I followed to solve
1) First attempt (didn't solve): had cloudy rom, got back to stock official but still rebooting, tried fulmics and other rom but problem persisted.
2) second attempt (didn't solve): went back to stock and changed battery (found somewhere in internet), now I have a brand new battery but a phone still loop rebooting
3) third attempt (SOLVED): found that the wi-fi / bluetooth chip (one for both) copuld have unwelded and solved so (it appears I can't post outside link, delete spaces to have the correct link):
youtube .com / watch?v=1zWpzYh2DPI&t=15s"
youtube .com/ watch?v=6_0jzp65eLY&t=256s
Now i'm on fulmics and no more loop reboot
Hope you can solve
[sorry for my english]

used flashtool
have to say restoring and/or flashing isn't always that stable. I've experienced it sometimes needs a 2nd try.
Hopefully it isn't a hardware issue in your case.
So I tried all of oyur suggestions but nothing seems to work.
On the contrary I ended up in a status where I can't even flash a new firmware.
In LG Flash Tool 1.8.1 I get the error
"Donwload Fail!!!"
PID: NULL
IMEI: NULL

DLL: D855
BIN: LGD855AT.....

In LG Flash Tool 2014 (flashing MM with kdz file) phone shuts down in middle of process.
But I can still access Download Mode.
No more ideas?
I really think I finally broke my phone... But the fact that I can still access download mode keeps my hopes up.
So, after 2 months I just tried to reawaken my phone. Still the exact same problem. It just keeps shutting down aber some while, but just when I start flashing something. If it stays connected to computer whitout doing anything it can stay on for like ever.
Can anyone confirm that this could be a hardware defect?
