I can't access files from usb or micro sd. Can't connect to my lap top. How am I supposed to put a ROM on my LG? The TWRP is loaded, but I have no rom on the internal SD, so there is nothing to recover. TWRP is like a virus, it wiped out my phone. I can access the terminal mode on the phone, but how do I use that to load a rom? All I can find is Greek to me, stand on one leg, look west, hack a key, toss some salt over your shoulder, blah, blah, blah. There must be a simpler solution. This isn't a recovery project, its a destruction project. I used a custom recovery a few years back with no trouble on my Samsung I897. Please, if u understand how TWRP works, help me out.

As far as I know, Twrp for optimus g pro can't read the external SD card. Have you download the lg device drivers and install them on your laptop? Sounds like you haven't done so, otherwise your computer should be able to read your device. Once you establish the connection, you be able to transfer the file or flash the oem firmware. Everything you need is on this forum, search the topic on flashing the stock rom, there you will find the device drivers. Understand your frustration, but half of your posting is you *****in' and that doesn't help.

Before TWRP killed my phone, I was rooted and was able to connect my laptop to my phone no problem. I tried reloading LG drivers, but when I plug the phone in to USB, the Laptop tells me there is something wrong with the device, doesn't recognize it.

Have you try adb side load? If you have 2.3 or higher version of Twrp, you should have the side load function. Within adb you can push the file into which ever directory in your device. Other than the side load, you may have to flash the either cwm image file with lg flash tool or flash the stock rom and go from there.
ADB Sideload, yes I have it

Although I have the ADB Sideload, I'm not sure how to use it. I can access it on the phone, but isn't the idea to use it from your laptop to move files over to the internal SD. How do I get an ADB on my laptop that will talk to the adb sideload of the phone? I tried using the ADB console of my super one click, but it could not see my phone. Sorry to be such a nub about this, but every problem is a new one to me.

Ok, I was able to connect via adb sideload

I was able to connect via adb sideload last night, but lost the connection mysteriously. I was able to connect after loading a "universal driver" to windowa 8. Perhaps my cable is intermittent, I'll check more into it tonight.

TWRP didnt kill your phone your lack of reading did, just use lgflashtools to flash stock TOT image and start over. Be sure to read all the forums before attempting anything, everything you need or could need is here all ready on xda and has been done all ready for situations like yours.

I can use kdz files and flash tools no problem, but I can't get a rom for att in kdz. I can find a tot file that claims to be att usa that will work with LGNPST, but I can't get the DLL file (labled ...lgflash151...to register as a DLL on my laptop. I keep getting an entry point error. If the DLL won't register, lgnpst won't recognize it. I see some references to this, but I do not see where anyone has solved it. I would admit to not really understanding the difference between .tot and kdz, and why att us uses the tot and the rest of the world uses kdz. Kdz is so easy and tot is a pain. I seem to be chaising a ghost. At this point I can not even get a rom that comes up in English, and I can't read Korean. I have spent a month working on this every night, so help me if u will, tell me I can't read Korean, but please don't tell me I can't read English.

I Started out with one of those and I did get it to work in English. I can no longer find that file. I no longer see anything on that site that will come up in English, and I don't see panama e980h. I searched google for that, and I get "file not found". Even when I had that, I couldn't get the phone to see the sim card or work on my att network. I had the filen my laptop at one point, I must have deleted it.

You have to flash the base-band if you don't get signal KDZ''ing other phones KDZ, try the e980 Central America or the Mexico Telcel 980 one preferable the telcel since that's what he states will work. Also if a site isn't in English use Google translate or use Google Chrome browser it will translate web pages for you.

I now have bigger problems. I can only flash roms that are Korean in Language. Even though I pick English, when the flash is done I get Korean. I have tried numerous of the kdz roms, Mexican, arab etc. Some of them come up wanting a pin that I do not have. I feel like that guy fighting the whale.
By the way, thanks

By the way, Its not about the phone, its my backup...its about the right way to do this, and its about me understanding it. I like LG and just want be comfortable doing these things with my LG Phone. I have flashed custom roms with my S3 back a few years ago, but this is a new batch of challenges. I really appreciate all the help!

If I buy another Used LG Stock ATT Optimus Pro, can I back up its ROM and restore it to my bricked optimus? How would I do that?
I could use TWRP for that?

It would have been quicker if I could have read Korean. The Phone has a baseband, and recognizes my Sim, but is still not on AT&T. What is causing this...anyone???
Hello all. Please help me. I have a v495 with root replaced by su. all was fine till I was getting ready to install the TWRP recovery. I did not even install it but I did install flashify and twrp manager approving root access but never installed/flashed the revovery img. After installing twrp manager it asked for me to select a device but did not see the v495,496 or 498 so I just exited. I restarted the device and it just sat at the at&t boot logo. again I did not install anything other than flashify and twrp manager. Anyway I panicked and searched online to reset the device thinking I could just start over. I found the directions (hold power and vol down. release power hold vol up down and power). I was able to do factory reset but now its still stuck at the a&t logo and it won't shut off.
Is there anything else I can do?
It is against XDA forum rules to post the same question in multiple threads. Please don't do this in the future. I answered you in the other (first) thread you posted about this problem.
Hi, Sorry for the duplicate post I was not aware.. I thought we just couldn't create new threads with same topic.
Anyway thanks but the waiting did not help. I installed LG Bridge and trying to do software update but I keep getting LGE MTP driver failed install errors.. Holding the up and power buttons allowed me to shut the device off and enter charge only state. Wish there was a way to reload the stock rom but I have not found any software or roms as of yet.
SOL
unfortunately for any ATT customer it is the hardest to get any firmware for any of their devices. I dont know why they feel the need to make it proprietary. I had run into the same problem and I am not getting anywhere with it. There is chinese website that says it has the stock kdz file for it but you need 5 coins or some type of BS to even look at it.
Well this socks...
I guess my car tab project will have to wait till we get some dev support. Im surprised there are so few of us seeing how these things were practically being given away at one point.

Sorry I don't have any other ideas. I feel your pain. It's a similar situation with my VK810 but at least there has been some development and TWRP was updated thankfully, plus Verizon releases the firmware.

Probably the same as for my device. http://www.lgbbs.com:41/thread-838-1-1.html. Not willing to pay for it since I don't need it, but if you need it bad enough I think it equates to 10 U.S. dollars last I checked. Note that the one I linked to is supposed to be the one for my device, the VK810.

Thanks for the link, but I didn't find my model's firmware there - V495 AT&T... I would willingly pay to download this firmware so I can fix my issue. I rooted mine, didn't like the Kingroot su manager and changed it to SuperSU with Supersume and the tab didn't boot again. It just hangs at the LG logo, or if I leave it for long it will show the AT&T logo and that's all. I wish I never messed with it. Just brand new off ebay.

Kick me if this is too obvious, but have you tried Googling:
Code:
V495 TOT
or
Code:
V495 KDZ
?
Although I might be wrong, but I think I heard that Sprint and AT&T don't provide KDZs for LG devices.
Is it still under LG's warranty? Do you have the IMEI/serial number for it that you can try to RMA it through LG? I got excellent warranty service for my model when I needed it. Don't tell them what you tried doing to it, though.
It gets worse... From really bad to terribly worse... I searched and searched and searched for the V495 KDZ to no avail, but I saw for V490 and V496. I downloaded both. I tried with V490 and it flashed and booted but touchscreen was not responsive. I guess due to not being for the exact same version. I tried the V496 which is the same model but the T-Mobile variant. The flashing went well until around 85% when the screen went blank and although the flashing completed, the screen never came up again, yet it makes a sound when connected to the laptop. So I went into Device Manager on my laptop to see how things were, and what it was seeing it as was HSUSB DQLoader 9008 or something like that. A hard brick!!! All because I tried to root this device... Some things are better left without messing around with them... However, if there's any help I would appreciate it very much; this is a new tab, still with the cover screen unremoved...

I'm really sorry to hear about that. That sucks. Unfortunately, recovering from QHBUSB BULK 9008 mode requires a TOT file, although I've wondered if it might also work with a KDZ, but in your case you can't find either so there's really no hope.
Are you going to see if it's under warranty with LG and try to RMA it?
I guess you know this now, but never, ever flash something that's made for a different model/variant, although in your case it didn't really hurt to try since either way you were bricked.

@ezeuba, I did a variation of one of the previous searches I suggested. I Googled for:
Code:
at&t v495 tot
The second and third links look promising.

Although the "Translate this page" link next to each search result didn't work, it still translated fine for me after loading both pages the normal way.
If only there was a way to 'make' a tot file from another V495 tab's files... I got the second one now and have no intention of messing with it again. I only wonder if it were possible to 'create' a tot file one can use in unbricking the bricked one... Just a thought...

I've wondered about the same - possibility to create KDZs and TOTs out of partition image files. After all, there are tools to extract both, so although possibly more difficult, theoretically it should be possible to create both. I have no knowledge that would help look into the possibility, however.
Did you pursue any further getting to that page? I can still get to it fine.

Did you get it to translate by choosing to translate *after* loading the webpage? You should first register on the site in the upper right corner.
You probably have to buy credits using PayPal, then use those credits to buy the link to the TOT, lower on the page.

there you go you should be rooted
if anyone wants the KDZ for 13b here you go incase you did mess somthing up
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g4/help/13b-kdz-t3261788
I was having probs trying to find the proper root img for 13b. Thx for the tutorial!
To sum it up, its basically the low effort root except with the linked rootedsystem img above.
One more question though, the regular system img linked above, thats to unroot back to 13b by KDZ?
the 13b kdz is the unrooted file
if you are talking about the system. img ya it dose not have root
i think someone provided the img file cause at the time there was not a kdz when 13b was rooted.
glad it have helped you
What does this mean " 6. take the rootsystem.img and system.img in the root of your phones INTERNAL storage". very confused on this. thx

http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g4/help/lg-g4-vs985-root-video-walk-threw-t3166078
ok i got internet YAY!!!!! but sadly its comcast
ok i made some videos for those who have hard time understanding directions (i have that issue to but i do my homework till i understand them)
on my video part 2 my LGG3 died at the last sec. when i got root so i took a pic of my g4 to show its rooted so i hope thats ok and the root i fallowed worked
so lets get started but as always i am not responsible if your phone flys to china, destroys LG company (i know lg is not in china) and hurts one of those KDZ workshop fairy's
i am also not responsible if anything bad happens to your phone
before we begin, i am not a dev. and do not take credit for the work i am just a helper who is nice to do this on my time off
please note- i have not had any errors with my phone doing this so please dont ask how to recover your phone, only way i know is the 13b KDZ but if you follow the instructions you should be fine
to let you know i have made some mistakes in the video so feel free to laugh cause i had a few brain farts lol
by the way please thank the devs for there hard work
please fallow the steps

Thanks for making the video about rooting the lg g3 and posting to YT. I watched it a couple of days ago, and am downloading the tools to root my g3 vs985.
I thought I'd ask you if you know the dial code to get into the screen which has the device rollback level. I found it somewhere during the time I watched your video, but forgot to write it down.
Thanks for helping us who are trying to root our devices.

you are welcome but you do know you posted in the g4 vs986 post insted of a vs985, as for a code i do not know any, but if you are talking about a downgrade you can downgrade your phone
if you are useing the lgg4 vs986 you can downgrade and that video can be found in my channels home page in the lg g4 post
for the lgg3 vs985 look for the post for lgg3 and you can downgrade to 10b look for the video downgrade to 10b
i am happy to help you all out and if you need any help feel free to message me here or my facebook page @ www.facebook.com/laser452
For VoLTE to be enabled w/13b Root:
If you're downgrading to 13b though a .kdz your, "My Verizon App" will also be downgraded and turns off VoLTE on the device.
BEFORE root, go into your account online and turn off, "Advanced Calling" and apply changes.
Go into phone and update to latest version of, "My Verizon App" and make sure device has decent or better LTE signal strength (I had to keep trying on several devices because of poor signal strength in my office).
Once updated, go to options->advanced calling->activate later->ok
You should now see the Turn on HD Calling in gray, do not turn off device as prompted, just set the device down and wait you should see that the HD ON option will be added shortly.
You can now root without loosing HD Voice or WiFi, I even froze the system update apps and have no issue with making calls (dropping to 1x from LTE).
Hope this helps!

In my opinion no its not worth the hassle but ot only takes 5 mine to check ot 2. Unless its got the bootloop issue or hard bricked its fixable. But how determined are you.

my phone boots up completely but no baseband no imei or anything and that infamous 9008 brick is fixable with ls991 laf.img and 8992.mbn and etc... files and here is my next approaches please if you have enough aknowledge guide me with these options i have or add any if something came on your mind:
1.Flashing a ls991 model kdz and see what comes out(probably not doable,lgup may not let me flash it)
2.while surfing through the forums and threads i found the exact H811 10N Laf.img and i will replace it with ls991's and will use QFIL to correct the partitions and then my phone would be fixed(im too scared for this one...maybe my phone is a refurbished F500...who knows? :fingers-crossed: )
3.Maybe finding and flashing F500 laf.img fix the phone but a HUGE problem i am facing:where to find that file?
Note:All i am trying to do is to fix this phone by software approaches and disassembling the phone is out of my options for now(only will do if none of above fix it properly)
So with all of that what would you do if you be in my shoes?:cyclops:
Always hated LG and admired Sony but i started to hate xperia x series because of weak development so i bought this one for around 100$ in your currency.:laugh:
Id send it back.

then i will use them to crack open kdz from both H811 and F500L firmwares to flash laf and other messed up files with fastboot
but im wondering which one should i try first because im concerned if i flash wrong files then there will be even no 9008 mode to use QFIL and get back to very first step...
What is going to happen exactly when i flash another varient's laf? will it kill the phone completely or will there be any 9008?

Actually LG devices are very easy to disassemble so people like them wont put so much effort to refurbish LG phones and earn themselves some easy money.
And believe me Iran is the heaven of refurbished and chinese phones
Mostly because many cant afford to buy their phones and other stuff from trusted sellers and they buy them with no warranty(or guarranty)from third party sellers.
Actually they have a place for themselves in downtown(Aladdin building).
But i wanted a flagship LG device to learn more about it and i got it for a couple of bucks so it really didnt matter if my G4 didnt work as expected.
But its always a pleasure to make some mystery and try to crack the case by yourself :laugh:

of course they are great but hardware faults are pretty big deal but for me sony z series were better right until z3+ .for now im happy with my htc u11 and im not going to unlock it or anything.
maybe i use g4 as my secondary device instead of xperia z2.
its a shame that sony is not in its golden age (2011-2013) anymore...
will make a thread to help people like me to unbrick their refurbished device
Thanks for everything

1)What do you mean permanently locked...carrier/sim, mcafee security, something else? If it's carrier you can order a sim unlock code off of ebay for @$4.00 us, or use any other sim unlock services out there.
2)If you changed a d851 to a d850 using board diag and manually loading the partitions - then why not extract a d851 tot and do the same thing?

1) I don't know of a free way to get an unlock code, so if you can't order one you're probably stuck. Pay a friend who can order one for you?
2) If we're on the same page here and you previously used the board diag tool then that should work again. Hard brick usually shows up in your device manager as qualcomm 9008 instead of an lg device, so to get back to that condition you would have to open the phone up and short a pin -
follow the guide in the link I posted before and you should be good to go. I don't have links for any d851 tot files though...sorry, not my variant.

Unfortunately...I think so. If you were to try and use the lg flash tool and try and tot a d851 file into a d850 it'll probably throw some errors - model check, for ex - and won't flash. You can try and see for yourself if you'd like...here's a link for a couple tools; the 1st is kdz method, second is tot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
To brick it again follow guide I linked( https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/general/guide-fix-hard-brick-recovery-guide-t3132359), short that 2nd jtag pin in the pic for @5 seconds, plug in the usb, and it should go to qualcomm 9008. You already know how to do the rest as far as loading partitions and such, and if you don't the guide will tell you what to do.
Good luck :good:

Re-read your previous post where you asked if you'll have to brick it again.
I said yes, and gave you a link on how to do it. Did you read the link? My guess would be no, since the 1st 4 steps tell you how to brick it and enter qualcomm9008 mode.
You're on your own now. Good luck. And you're welcome for the time I spent trying to help you.

Yes the guide is for already bricked phones, but what I was trying to say is since you have a functional phone rt now you're gonna have to brick it, and by brick it I mean qualcomm9008 mode, and that's what the 1st part of the guide shows you how to do by shorting out the pin. Once you get to Qualcomm mode you can then use the board diag tool and load your partitions that you extracted from the tot and hopefully get back to your original d851 phone and get back up and running. Does that make more sense?
Again...good luck

I did not know that you can hard brick the phone by shorting the pins; thank you.

I hard bricked it again and then extracted another D851 tot and then loaded all the necessary partitions but the phone still on qload mode i copied the sbl1.mbm of the D850 and tried them with D851 partitions the phone revived but not in download mode.
I managed tp recover all partitions and the phone is on dowloading mode but still detected as d850 so i have the dll cross error everytime i try to flash a rom even with using the custon dll file.
