Boot on power charging - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm looking to set my rooted LG G Pad 7.0 (cannot create a thread in that forum, but should be same method as G Pad 8.3) running 4.4.2 to power on when plugged into a power source.
Edit: I believe I found the appropriate LG file I would need to edit to reboot on plug in: /sbin/chargerlogo. Whenever I make edits to the file, when I restart the device all the edits are reverted. If I'm right here, the only way to get an LG G Pad 7.0 v410 to power-up when plugged in is to modify the boot image (create a custom rom). Looking into this now, just editing in case someone else with the same issue comes across this thread.

Were you able to figure out which is the correct file you need to edit to get the tablet to turn on when it senses charging?

I think I know what needs to be edited (a could lines in init.zetaw.rc or replace chargerlogo with reboot), but can't get a bumped boot.IMG to load so can't properly test .

Any update on this? I am interested in finding this out too

Amy updates?

can't root my lg g pad

I need help. I recently bought a lg g pad and I have some issues transferring data through usb, Its weird , since I can tranfer some files but I cannot transfer others. Anyway I tried to root it but unfortunately I couldn't. I've attached the command script window so you can see the error.
Could it be related to the fact that the tablet has issues transferring files???? Can anyone help me??? Thanks!!
Try to root with towelroot. You can have a look over here:

Unbricking LG G Pad in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode

Hello
This is the process that I used to unbrick the LG G Pad 8.3 tablet.
Note 1: The operating system on my PC is Windows XP SP3 x86
Note 2: The same process should also work on LG G Pad 10.1 (With a different .tot file)
1. First of all you should make sure that the G Pad is detected when connected to the PC.
The device should be seen as QHSUSB_DLOAD in Other Devices section in Device Manager.
hxxp://i.imgur.com/IawJZq0.jpg
2. Install the QHSUSB Driver for your operating system.
The driver can be found here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!HlpViaTJ!NPACjSQtTjGWdYIj3kHO3bGfmAotaSSQindmgRY9VJ4
I have used the driver from the "checked" folder.
Reconnect the tablet and you should now see the device as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COMxx) under the Ports section in Device Manager.
Take a note of the COM port number.
hxxp://i.imgur.com/IR7uUCB.png
3. Download the .tot image file for you tablet model.
I have used the one from here (LG G Pad 8.3 V500 4.4.2):
hxxp://androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407581518
4. Now you need the LG BoardDiag tool.
Download this one from here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!XwgkXTAR!JnAAXKBQoezT7CcxRSVkSQlPFr4AXcvfm6oJbw4bht4
Please use only this one even if you have another BoardDiag. I have tried other versions and this was the only one that worked. For the other versions I always got some error:
failed during loading flash programmer
or
device not found in dload trying flash programmer
With this tool we will extract the .tot rom image first.
Unrar the archive and open BoardDiag3.99c application.
Click on the ... button next to BIN from the Image Extraction section on the bottom of the BoardDiag application and browse to the .tot file you downloaded at step 3.
Then click on the ... button next to DIR and browse to a folder to extract the files in.
Click on the Extract button and wait for the files to be extracted.
After the extraction is complete, close the BoardDiag application.
hxxp://i.imgur.com/Kw0ZhUv.jpg
5. Now we will perform some cheks on the tablet.
Open the BoardDiag application again.
Now select the AP check and EMMC TEST checkboxes from the Board Diag Test section on the top-left.
Also choose the G-pro (APQ8064) on the AP Chipset dropdown selection box. Choose the Com Port that you took a note of at step 2. Select as the Target Dir the folder where you extracted the .tot image file at step 4. These settings are in the top-right side of the BoardDiag application. Make no other changes to the settings.
Now Click on the big START button and wait for the checks to be made.
If everything is OK you should see under the Test Results section the green text PASS both under the AP and EMMC. Leave the BoardDiag application open. Now you can proceed to step 6.
6. Now we will Flash the files to the tablet.
Now you will also check the SDRAM TEST checkbox on the left top side of the BoardDiag application. The other settings were already made in step 5. Click the START button again.
After performing the checks you should see that the files from the image (aboot.mbn, boot.mbn, etc.) are written to the tablet.
After that, the BoardDiag tried to reset the tablet, but it failed and it ended with FAIL for SDRAM under the Test Results section. But the files were already written on the tablet.
7. After that I disconnected and reconnected the tablet to the PC. Nothing was detected, or so I thought, because I could see that in Device Manager something was happening. It was like refreshing itself every 5 seconds or so. I disconnected the tablet from the PC and I plugged in the wall charger. It turns out that the battery had no power.
After a few minutes the LG logo appeared on the screen. Nothing else was happening but I could see the LG logo. I left the tablet to charge the battery for at LEAST 3 hours. If your tablet battery is also discharged you should plug your tablet to the charger for at LEAST 3 hours.
After that I reconnected the tablet to the PC and it was detected as G Pad but it couldn't find the driver.
8. Install the LG Mobile Drivers.
You can get them from here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!j8xikSYC!Njz3E1_PSJanzQEeZCbbEoWfxUz9TfrTVgusqBCJ2qY
After the driver installation reconnect the tablet to the PC.
It should now be connected properly.
9. Download LG Mobile Support Tool. You can use the launcher from here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!bp5jgBQJ!xqiMyQU7z-ATlYz__0ybz2kM7boeLFNgqsu5XoPPSzo
Open LG Mobile Support Tool. You should now see the tablet is connected correctly and you should see the tablet model on the left side of the LG Mobile Support Tool. You will now go to Options and choose Upgrade Recovery. Wait for the image to be downloaded and flashed to the tablet.
After the process is completed the tablet will boot to life again.
Please write your comments bellow if you succeeded or failed. I will provide further assistance if required.
PS: I think you need to remove the battery and reinsert it after step 6. Or it could also work if you let the battery discharge completely.
Good luck!
I could not post the images and the links.
I will add them later (after I get to 10 posts).
Contact me on skype (cyadron) for the files and for other help.
nice finding.
it can be handy if we try to flash the v510 bootloader on the v500 to see if it fits and "unlocks" the pad

Actually it was the only way I found that worked to unbrick this tablet.
Bricked LG G Pad
Need your help man with those files. I bricked my device after flashing wrong file. I have tried LG G2 Pro Board Diag tool and everything passes except SDRAM.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Links for files
Hi, I bricked my GPad and would be very interested in getting the proper files or links. How can I get them?
I will update this thread as soon as I can post links. Hopefully no more than a few days.

Can you post links ?
This sounds very promising @cyadron, hopefully you'll be able to edit the links in soon.
@muiriddin this sounds like you should be able to revive your tablet from your science experiment.
@fefifofum posting here instead of the other thread as that would be way off topic for it.
This sounds like we'll be able to do some proper experimenting and still be able to recover if it doesn't work!
Hopefully I will be able to post the links soon. Does anyone know the minimum number of posts required to post links?

This thread should probably be pinned. You can request the moderators to do so by "reporting" your first post and ask them there. Too bad, as far as I know, there aren't any TOTs available for the VK810, although I haven't needed one yet.
I used the tutorial, but accuses ero Emmec test fails
Any solution?

Unless there is a hardware problem with the emmc, it should work.
Try and remove the battery and put it back again.
Please also make sure you follow the steps as described.

Read everything you can and follow instructions.
I think you'll need to search further than just this thread though. I read about someone recovering an LG device from this state but I think it was a phone.
But you'll need to find it and follow the instructions, I don't remember where I read it.

[Q] LG UP Restoring

I am trying to reflash the zv5 update. I want to start fresh one last time on this device.
I have downloaded LG UP (from Autoprime thread), the 8994 dll msi, and proper drivers.
LG UP says my device is Unknown even tho it lists LS992 next to the port info on the initial screen.
I cannot get beyond this screen. I cannot select an Unknown device. After reading around a bit, I learned some registry edits were needed. However it isn't 100% clear what needs to be done.
When I go into the registry, I see there is no folder for LS992 under HKEY_Current_User\Software\LG Electronics\LGUP\Model\
Is it as simple as adding one for the LS992 and directing the DLL_PATH to the 8994 folder similar to the other models?
Thanks.
I think u have to download a DLL for the LS992, do u connect the phone in download mode?

sorry you had problems
the error is one of the drivers lg
you should plug it into one of the main USB ports on your PC.
or rather entering device manager and re-assign drivers to ports.
Have you downloaded the lgup for lg g3 and g2?
Drivers are installed, USB debugging is enabled, LG PC Suite OK.not sure what else there is missing.
Download : lgup-g2-g3.zip
Solve it FIX
good after I found the problem LGUP
roms apparently change the model of the device as it changes cm11 to build Cyanogenmod 11 xx
AOSP - to AOSP rom 2 etc.
the solution would be to install a stock rom clean no matter if v10 v30 etc. The important thing is not having changed the model number and manufacturer.
I hope I have helped and sorry
that includes cloudy fa's roms

Hi !
How do I do all the above ?
My PC recognize the phone without problem, but LGUp won't start unless I "select a known model"... (LGUp window shows : Model = Unknown ; COM Ports = [COM5, CloudyG3] )
Problem is that my phone is softbricked after installing a new ROM, and I can only enter download mode (not even recovery). I just want to downgrade it and reflash a LG's stock ROM (or whatever ROM that would make my phone actually work !!! )
Can you help me do that ?

LGUP "UNKNOWN" and FlashTool failure with LG G3 (and possibly others)
When I downloaded and installed LGUP with the DLL installer stated to be for the LG G3, the program did not recognise the phone, reporting it as "UNKNOWN". The LG FlashTool also failed, reporting the IMEI and PID as NULL. After spending a lot of time on this, I twigged that the DLL file in the LGUP model directory was for the 8994 processor; but the G3 has an 8974, quite different and incompatible. I located the DLL installer MSI file for 9874 devices, uninstalled LGUP and the DLLs from Windows add/remove programs, ran the 9874 DLL installer and reinstalled the LGUP program, and everything worked.
The file is, amongst other places, on https://uptoandroid.com/download-lg-up-tool-for-lg-smartphone-latest/. Do not download DLL files for LG G4, LG V10, LG G3, LG Stylo, filename LGUP_Common_DLL_Ver_1_0_28_5 .msi, but instead For LG phones based on Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 SoC, filename LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5.msi:.

Can not flash LG G3 D855

Hello friends. I got the LG G3 D855 and it was dead. When flashing with LG Flash Tool, the same is 4% and gives connection error and asks me to remove the battery. Or else it reaches 15% and it's the same, I've tried everything. The S / W version is D85521A, Spain. Any solution?
hi, I have it working but not sure what made it work.
- get LG flash tool 2014
- flash file I used for Android Marshmellow D85530C_00_0211.kdz (more here http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda%2FLG+G3%2FStock%2FD855%2F
- when you have connected your phone change the com port in device manager to 41 (I had done that yesterday)
- install the LG USB driver
well I had really troubles getting it work but somehow today it did it
oh one more thing, leave internet on as you need to select country and language in flashtool, ones a new windows opens, let the first step finish, then pull your lan cable off or disable wifi whatever..
ps: bmatney posted 3 posts down this link, may help too https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
