No Recovery - No Download Mode - No Fastboot - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
We have an LG G3 D855 here which has been interrupted midway through flashing a KDZ file,
Powering on the device gives us,
"Cause : Boot certification verify (secure booting error)"
Followed by the screen going off and the blue red LED flashing endlessly.
Download mode does not work,
Recovery mode does not work,
However, the factory reset screen appears, but when selecting yes it reverts to the LG logo and reboots.
Here is a screen shot of what appears in device manager on my PC after I attempt to enter download mode.
As you can see, it is "QHSUSB_BULK" in device manager.
We have tried adapting this guide for the G2 with Ubuntu, but the device is not recognized by Ubuntu. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142
If we can get into fastboot somehow we will be fine, but nothing seems to be responding. Any advice would be fantastic.
We also have another idea, of super hard bricking the device somehow so that we can follow this tested method of getting out of the brick,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/fix-unbrick-lg-g3-stuck-qualcomm-hs-usb-t2933853 not sure how to get either of these though so some help would be great.
The same problem has been described here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/lg-g3-d855-rooted-download-mode-t3003988
EDIT : After 10 hours of working on this problem we found the solution and posted our fix and explanation here http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...nload-mode-t3273824/post64377399#post64377399
Thanks to all parties involved.

Thanks mate, are there no software alternatives to this problem? We have been looking literally for hours.

It works! I have found a diffrent package at web. The "Device is not in DL mode" issue is much better with! If the DL breaks, reject the USB-cable and klick start again the process should start without probs. For prevent the app to freeze exclude cust.mbn, system.mbn, userdata.mbn, cache.mbn every .mbn bigger then 50mb. This files we can flash later with Flashtool after the device is back to life

Hope it would help...
greets and very Christmas to all!

[Q] Rom install failed now can't boot

Hi guys, so my problem is I was installing a new rom on my rooted D855. everything was going along fine but then the process stalled. I left it running for 15 - 20 minutes but it was still on 33%. I tried holding the power button in desperation which shut the thing down. Now when I try to factory reset it goes to the prompt screen, I answer yes, then it asks me to confirm. from there however it goes to LG splash screen and eventually a black screen with Fastboot mode started. -reset- portcharge -reset- portcharge fastboot: processing commands in the top left corner. That's it.. If I try download mode it goes to the download screen and then to the black screen as described above.
Sounds pretty ordinary but if there is an answer out there I am sure one of you guys will know it.
TIA
i had some similar other issue and the only way i got out of it, is by using the lg flashtool 2014 and the KDZ file appropriate to your version
there is a thread with a step by step instructions.
you launch the flashtool, then insert the kdz file (original stock rom) then you put your phone into download mode (making sure in windows/controlpanel/devicemanager/ports - comp port 41 for the device driver)
you press volume up and plug it into the pc, the pc sees the phone and it starts reflashing the custom rom to your cell.
i presume that as soon as your download mode is working by flashing whatever command is corrupt and makes your phone black should be bypassed by then
i hope it helps - look for the thread how to flash the lg
Thanks I'll give it a shot. Not sure device manager is seeing it properly. I'll have a play and see. Thanks again for the reply
O.K here's the thing, my phone is seen in device manager as a Samsung Android Phone. Under the details tab it shows it connected via USB Modem Phone ADB Port. There is no option to change the port to 41. Anybody who can help I would be very grateful......

[HELP] - Soft Bricked G3 D852 (Rogers) - No Download Mode. Stuck at FW Update Screen

Hello all,
I've done a lot of googling and searching on these forums and I'm having no luck. Hopefully by asking I can get some headway.
I was attempting to restore to stock rom. At 17% of the process using LGFlashTool 1.8.6 the tool gave me an error 'Unable to Communicate with phone' after about 10 minutes of no progress. I exited the LGFlashTool program and ran it again and now it fails saying 'Cant' change to download mode". If I turn the phone off and then press Vol+ and plug in my cable it just goes to the Firmware Update screen. My phone *IS* detected properly in the device manager as LGE Andriod MTP Device and under ports as LGE Mobile USB Serial Port (COM41). If I go into recovery (Vol- and power) it asks if I want to do the restore - but it doesn't actually do anything once I say yes twice. Just sits at the firmware update screen at 0%.
I looked at this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/unbrick-lg-g3-qhsusbbulk-qualcomm-9008-t3072091) but it appears to be either for a different phone or different problem (showing in device manager as a bulk device - mine is not doing that). Frankly I don't want to make things worse (if that's possible)
Does anyone have a way that I can restore the download mode for this D852 phone? I'm hoping if I can get download mode to work again I can reflash the stock rom. I don't care about the data on the phone at this point.
I'm willing to send some $$$ via paypal to whomever can get me back up and running! Thanks

What happens when u just power up the phone ?
Thanks for the reply.
If I shut the phone down (by pulling battery) then plug it back in and just power it on, I get the LG logo then it goes to the firmware update screen with 'USER B84" in the box below the progress bar. Progress bar never moves. I get to this screen whether I start it in recovery (which is just the factory recov - looks like during the initial 17% it wiped out my TWRP), attempt to start it in download mode (I do not get the download mode screen with the blue dots anymore), or regularly by just holding the power button.
ok
Dont plug it into the computer and try to power it up what does ot do?
Same thing.

Ok that didn't work for me but I did try the LGFlashTool using Board DL instead of Upgrade DL and it was moving a bit. Finally got to 10% and failed at 574 sec with the error "We can't communicate with Phone". I am using the cable that came with the phone. It isn't damaged or anything.
Here's what is shows in the LG Flashtool window (this is port 1 (com41)
Code:

On the phone it shows COM41 under the usb icon on under firmware update and 0% progress. In the box below it says:
Code:
F USER 50.0 A50.0 B70 UHS
S U LG-D852 04.4.2 Hrev_10
D85210b
D85210b
That's it. Should I leave the phone connected at this point or unplug it? Device still shown in device manager (have had it up beside the LG Flashtool window the whole time. I do see it refresh from time to time but the contents dont' seem to change at all.
Ok so I left this over night and when I checked the phone this morning it's different but I don't think it's good.
Looks like it proceeded but ended with:
FBOOT Check
FBOOT Complete Time [0s ] 1th try
Factory Reset Flag = 2
Factory Reset Flag Check Fail!!!
And my phone has a blue screen with Factory Reset Status and a big red '2'
Now what do I do?
Some further information.
If I run the LGFlashTool in Board DL action mode, it seems like the process works but I end up with the red 2 on the screen. But I don't get 'can't change to download mode' or 'cannot communicate with phone' errors.
However if I choose Upgrade DL action mode, then I get 'can't change to download mode' or cannot communicate with phone'. ARGH. What gives?
I have tried things like fresh restarts (restarting PC), restarting the LG FlashTool between attempts, not restarting flashtool, etc. I can't seem to find the sweet spot.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/help/fix-bricked-lg-g3-ls990-stuck-fastboot-t3084562 another tutorial to try
Thanks, but no dice.
I don't get fastboot options, and if i download and attempt to use fastboot, it shows no devices.
Also, when following the steps for the BOARD DL option in the lg flashtool, it goes through the process but I get no ATT screen. Nor do I get the option to tap OK or Normal - as soon as my device reboots after the flash, it gives me a MINI OS (iirc) screen with a bunch of vertical bars below it moving up and down then it changes to the Factory Reset screen with the number 2.
last one lol

Thanks - I'm going to give this a try, however I can't finda .kdz file for my phone (canada/rogers D852 LG G3) - the links in that post that link to firmware is for a tot file. Does anyone have a link to the KDZ?
Hi, I'm having the exact same problem now, where the phone only boots to the Firmware Update screen. Did you manage to fix it?
Indeed.
I used the KDZ method pacods61 posted last, but I had trouble actually finding kdz firmware. With some help I finally managed to do so from here: http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/country.php?country=Canada

I can't enter recovery(stock one) but when i him yes the second time to erase the error shows up and restarts.
Use the search option. Not for me and not for anyone else but to help yourself as fast as possible. You'll also learn stuff.
XDA user roopesh had the same problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com//g4/development/stock-h815-20a-stock-rom-t3233049/post63721579
He/she fixed their problem by following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/guide-lg-g4-stock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848
Or follow my guide:
i) Make sure you have the LG Drivers installed from here: http://oceanhost.eu/e4h2px4e0hkd/LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.0.4.exe.htm
ii) Download the LG Bridge software from here: http://www.lg.com/us/support/product-help/CT10000025-1438110404543-preinstall-apps
iii) Remove the battery and reinsert it so the device it is fully off.
iv) While holding the up volume button, insert your USB cable.
v) You should enter download mode. Go to the Software Update tab of the LG Bridge. It will say connecting and then should say your device is up to date. Click on the recovery text on the bottom right and then follow the instructions. The software will download the system image for you and this is roughly 1.6GB so make sure your firewall doesn't block this connection.
I've searched everywhere i think..before i posted the question
The phone wont stay in download mode....
It shows the little box with download and then the error i mentionet above and restarts..
And means SEA mobile?
hey alex have you fixed your g4 ? i have same problem.

bootloop'ed ZE551ML Z00A

Hi,
I somehow managed to get myself into a bootloop situation (it keeps rebooting and showing the asus logo until I shut it down). I had flashed the droidimg.img recovery.img and boot.img files from the latest official stock rom, but that seemed to not work and now I'm in a bootloop. I do not have fastboot or recovery or anything else. It's stuck at the logo and keeps rebooting.
To fix it, I tried to follow the "unbrick" guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/thead-bricked-phone-updating-to-mm-tips-t3452785), but I can't see the MOOREFIELD device show up for long enough to even click it (only shows up for a split second under "Other Devices" section). And I can't see "Inter SOC" in device manager at all. Also, xFSTK-Downloader doesn't run (doesn't show up when I click it) at all. This is on Windows 10. I have looked at other guides and they seem to have followed the "unbrick" guide, which doesn't work for me.
Is the phone done for good or is there hope?

LG G3 F400L Softbrick. Download mode available.

Hello everyone reading! I've tried many guides here, but none seems to work for me somehow, thats why im writing this post.
Whats my problem?
- I've been having this problem for a year or so now, like most softbricks im stuck on a bootloop while launching the phone, with red and blue led light flashing.
The message displayed in the top left corner of the screen says:
boot certification verify
Secure booting Error!
Cause: boot certification verify
How i have bricked my phone?
- I remember i have tried to unroot my phone after having cm installed, can't remeber the version though. Then the phone just got stuck in the bootloop and wont launch along with recovery.
What have i tried?
- I have tried flashing the phone to stock via lg flash tool (tot and dll) and Lg Flash tool 2014 (kdz) no luck unfortunately.
- While flashing stock F400L rom through tot files im having sometimes Milkyway connection failed error when im launching the program, but i don't think that's the case.
I'm doing everything in right order, drivers and programs installed, going into download mode, changing ports to COM41 or COM1 (neither works), launching lg flash tool 2014,
choosing suitable for F400L stock dll and tot then launching the process, unplugging the phone and after 5 seconds plugging it again.
Nothing happens, im stuck at ready.
- Tying to flash through kdz file seem not to work either, got errors after l start the flash process.
Phone plugged, in download mode, yet i get the message of program not being albe to access it, like it would have problems with connection to the computer.
Im following the instructions that program gives me though it does not help at all. It stops after reaching 4% and asks to connect the phone back after checking connection with the device.
Thanks for any help provided!
