Hey guys i have a concern.
I have the LG Optimus G (sprint). Now I rooted it and that went swimmingly but when I tried to unlock bootloader using freegee app, it soft bricked my phone. It either stops on the LG screen or when I hold volume down+power key, it will shut off and then turn on or shut off completely. No worries because I can put It into download mode right? Well once I do that and connect it to LGNPST, I cannot locate the .dll file I need to actually try to restore phone back to stock and I have the .dll file.
This is the only way i know to fix my phone that actually works and won't hard brick my phone. Does anyone have any ideas? It will be very appreciated.

Did you register the dll?
6. Start a command prompt as admin
7. Type regsvr32 "C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST\Models\LGNPST_LS970.dll"
So in reference to your picture in Adri's thread... That com port seems awfully high me. See if there's a way to change it. It seems the Com ports are usually 3,4 and 6,7. But then it all depends on your computers configuration.

Hi!
Hope someone can help me:
I cracked the screen of my lg e975 when it fell out of my pocket. phone and lcd still working correctly but the glass and digitizer are broken, so the phone gives no response to any touch..
Is there any chance to get access to the data on the builtin storage? all the pics, notes,..
the phone is turned on and usb-debugging is turned off.
I am thankful for any help!
greets morph
are you on stock or custom rom?
if you are on stock, you can always try LG onscreen phone.

yes i am still on stock rom.
will try that, thx a lot! will i need any tricks to get it work this way?
no, lg on screen phone is an official app.you can acces your phone from pc,like you would do it from phone itself.
BTW,have you tried connecting the phone to pc and acces your files?

of course i connected my phone to pc but no drives are showen..
okay, i tried to get into my phone via LG OSP but it didnt recognize my phone - says i have to change connecting option to "lg software" but i cant do anything on my broken-screen phone - and current option is "charge only" and no usb-debugging selected..
any other way to get into that phone??? (

Well,can't think of anything.the only would be lg service mode.when you are on stock,turning off phone and pressing vol up +power will bring service mode,especially made to recover files,but i didn't managed to acces the files,as it says only for lg service.

Hey Kimitza!
thank you for this advise. will try that too, wont give up
If you unlock it by flashing a teenybin through lgnpst you'll be able to boot into twrp recovery and access /data/media through adb.

Ist of all I would like to say why I am opening this new thread so my answer is that I tried my best (by god) searched XDA & Google for more than two days to fiend solution for my problem but can't get a solution so I opened this thread as my problem different from others at this forum.
Story is that I was enjoying my LG Optimus G for last 11 months. Shortly, It was rooted, boot-loader unlocked and running custom ROM namely Thinking Bridge. One day I needed usb otg support so I search for it and fined a mod by XDA member samm_cz at {http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37896376#post37896376} when I flashed this the phone turned off and never turned on, Now neither I can't access CWM nor download mode even it does not respond to charger the only thing left is that when I connect charger and hold power button a red light blinks near front camera. I humbly request to All my seniors help me to get out of here. Hooping for good response.:crying::crying::crying::crying:

Yes it is hard bricked, unfortunately. You need to send it to the LG service centre. Do not attempt to unscrew the cover and open it up to reset the battery. It did not work for me and my warranty almost got voided because they found my thumbprints. However I pretended I did not know anything and they replaced my whole motherboard.

Thanks for reply brother but I don't know where is LG Service Centrer and I saw its warranty card and unfortunately its warranty has expired. Now my question is that if I go to LG Service Centrer will they deal me as phone's warranty has expired and I am ready to pay for this. My phone was at 75% battery when bricked.

They will replace your phone, but you will have to pay. I'm from Singapore and that time I was told to pay SGD $350 to replace. But I did not pay.
I guess the price may have dropped because of the G2 and G Flex which are the current flagships. Maybe you would pay $250? I'm just assuming.
But for my place, once my warranty ends, I would have to pay $25 for labour charge and additional costs for parts replacment if there is anything wrong.
I had the same problem and I solved it by disconnecting and reconnecting the battery

when red light is blinking check whether your device is recognized in computer/pc, try pressing up button and power button sametime to boot into downlload mode.
if you can do that then flash the teeny bin method to put recovery first...

It means it is hard bricked. You need to JTAG it or send it to LG service centre. No other way it can be solved.
A possible solution

Its not hardbricked, I had the exact problem, just use the correct driver software specified in teenybin and flash the given image
Its HardBricked. You flash some software mod for an Alcatel phone. Is like i flash a ROM for galaxy s2. Obviously it will brick.

it can be still recovered, i have recovered the phone from the same state...( what i believe is this lg phone can't be hardbricked, you can get it back)

I dont think so. you can brick this phone. The red led means two things.
1. You dont have battery
2.Brick

well, battery was available, and i had the exact state, only can see the red led, then when connected to PC it showed QHSUSB_DLOAD something
then i changed the windows driver to the one provided by lg drivers( how to do that shown in teenybin thread) then after flashing it i was able to see the fastboot mode and then went into the recovery used adb sideload to restore the nandroid backup and my LG Phone was back to life again....
hello people today have inadvertently p880 flashed a kernel of 4x HD on my Optimus G E975. (I had had it for my wife on my phone saved)
Unfortunately, since then nothing works.
I no longer get the recovery I'm no longer in the fastboot and not even in the download mode.
Only when I connect the phone to the PC, the status lamp lights red briefly
The phone will be visible to a Windows XP PC as QHSUSB_Dload unknown device.
I Have found a Link on XDA but this is in chinese.
Does not come with the instructions further unfortunately.
Has anyone had experience with it?
Can I save the phone yet? Urgently need your help.
Sorry for my Bad Englisch.
Did you only flashed a kernel? Can you still get to the bootloader to flash kdz? If not you probably have an hard brick translate this page with google translate
http://bbs.gfan.com/android-6269182-1-1.html
It has an way what could work.
Do you still have guarantee to return the phone to lg? Cause it might get fixed i dont want to let broke parts or what to get new one i think that is wrong but this is fixable you justneed the knowledge and the tools.

I'm in a bit of a pickle...
Phone is dead, I'm unable to wake it using any method, however PC sees the device being connected. I have tried to restore TWRP backup which was completed correctly but then phone stuck and failed to wake up again. I have tried to unbrick it using the LG flash tool and dll +tot files however this method fails each time -with factory model check error - and download fail notification. Right now im waiting for kdz file to download (im using the tool checking my imei to select correct one) but it takes ages with my internet.
Anyone has any ideas? Am i doomed?
Hi
Happened to me also. I got out of it by using LG flash tool and clicking on options and selecting restore recovery. It puts it back to stock and you then need to reroot etc.

Options? On mainstream there isn't any. Is it on the 2nd screen after adding the kdz?
Current progress
Phone:
No download mode
No boot on the phone
Device acts dead - only visible on my pc (serial port LGE)
PID and IMEI not available to read using LG flash tool 2014
Tried
Loading KDZ file - connection failed
using tot and dll with flash tool - Failed to connect to device
Read something about laf.img using adb... Anyone has any other ideas? Funny enough when I was searching forums I was not able to find more info about cases when device is not waking up at all. but now i see few very similar threads around? Possible flaw somewhere?

Thank God it is showing a serial port, try flashing with LG tools 2014, let me find a fix for your download error...
EDIT: Is your phone by any chance plugged into a usb 3.0 port? If yes then please plug it in a usb 2.0 port and try again...
I hope you are right. Screens hots should be updated same link:

It might be the PC (work pc at the moment and some IT limitations on it) however drivers installed ok, software confirms that I have latest software on my device - when phone is connected to the pc. After running Recovery Upgreade, it gets problem with comunication between the pc and mobile. in troubleshooting asks to power on the mobile (which I cannot do) before retrying. Also I have installed LG usb driver from outside as options coming with this software seem to be for really old models?
A thing I tried with another G3 was to connect the phone to the PC without the battery and then insert the battery, disconnect from phone and then remove battery again then insert and hold volume up and connect the USB to the phone again and it went into download mode and allowed the use of LG support tool as before.
Its worth a try!!

No dice... so far. I'm back home in 2 days when i can try all of this again making sure that PC is not restricted from any functionality... although it does sucks to not to have a phone until then. If you get any ideas I'm happy to try it as well.. as not like i have anything to lose at this point.
