Current situation: I'm currently stuck at the "firmware update" screen when I turn the device on.
What I think I did: I think I messed up the partition file or made a mistake trying to install twrp custom recovery
What happened: I did a factory reset when I got confused at one point and that worked as it should. When I tried it again, I was stuck in/at fast boot. However, doing a battery pull would boot the phone up. Recovery was damaged somehow?
I tried putting the phone in download mode to flash it to fix this issue. I did the method where I change COM5 to COM41, use flashtool to flash a tot and dll, pulling the usb out and reinserting when the program says "ready" but I get an error: Partition Change fa00000064 and hence that process fails.
LGPCSuite doesn't work.
Any idea how I can rectify this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I seem to have really messed up my G3 and after days of research I have not been able to get anywhere with it. I've read posts of people having similar issues, but their solutions do not seem to work for me.
What I tried to do is flash the ROM, starting with TWRP. After installing TWRP and rebooting I was getting the "no command" message on the screen. I believe (this was days ago), I used ADB to remove laf and reboot the phone (for some reason I could not back it up). The phone rebooted in fastboot and it has been downhill from there.
No download mode. When normally started the phone just hangs on the LG logo. Vol- and power gets me to the "Factory data reset", but if I do that, it flashes "erasing" for a second and it goes back to the LG logo screen.
I can get to fastboot, however, any command that I enter in CMD or Linux terminal just shows up on the phone's screen and it does not do anything. Fastboot devices shows the device as "????????" in Linux and as "?" in Windows. I have tried multiple drivers for Windows.
I tried BoardDiag (3 or 4 different versions running as admin) and shorting the pins, but any time I try to run the checks, I get an error - "No response from device" or "Device was not found in dload trying flash programmer"
I also tried SmartBootDiag, but once it detects the phone, it does its checks and it disconnects the device, without giving me an option to flash anything. Looking at the logs, it does not find any anti-rollback issues.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am not sure what else to try.......
Thank you.
Anyone??
Okay, so first I had problems with flashing a new ROM due to an error in opening /data/font/config and other folders in /data. So, I accidentally went on and wiped system without creating a backup, because I thought it was just a problem when creating a backup. Seemingly, this was not the case, as everything BUT Data partition was wiped. After that I tried to flash CM13, but ran into problems with installation, as the same error caused it to fail every time I tried. Solution was nowhere to be found, so I tried to flash the stock ROM using LG FlashTool, but that didn't work (I tried using the old version, maybe that was the problem). Then, i tried to use the updated method found on the same page, but accidentally went on and ran the newer FlashTool and the G3 started Firmware Upgrade. This, of course stopped at 3% because I couldn't access the FlashTool completely as I didn't have all the needed files or the info yet. I unplugged the device and now I can't boot into Download Mode, Recovery or anything since I don't have the recovery or system anymore...
The device will power on, but when powering on by pressing volume up and connecting to my PC via USB I only manage to get the LG screen with "Boot verification fail" and then just blank black screen with no notification LED. Otherwise it has the same blank screen and notification LED blinking red and blue.
Is there any way to fix the phone?
P.S. This was the guide I used when trying to use the FlashTool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
Found a way. It was Qualcomm QDLoader 9008 way of unbricking it. The device works flawlessly now. Here's the guide I used: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f49...ts-fix-qhsusb-bulk-_-qualcomm-9008-a-2029025/
So after accidently wiping everything I had on both SD and Internal memory trying to make a custom rom work, I was stuck with a phone that only has TWRP on it, basically. Now after I've been through this guide TO THE LETTER: http://www.droidviews.com/install-stock-android-marshmallow-lg-g3-d855-using-twrp-recovery/ I can see it installed an OS but I cant seem to get my phone to load it! SO then I tried entering recovery mode and getting back to default, it didn't change anything, so I tried installing Zoe rom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/zoe-rom-v1-0-mm-6-0-stock-v30a-d855-t3402087) and It STILL ONLY LOADS TWRP even though the installation seemed to be successful!
So what do I need to do? Just flat out delete TWRP? or what? Pleas advise as I'm desperate. If needs be, redirect me to how to just completely reinstall everything from scratch to 6.0 or 7.0 (preferably). I was on 4.x.x for ages and I just wanted to update, instead destroyed my phone. Sigh.
UPDATE: Another thing I've tried is to flash it with KDZ file from the PC. I can see the phone, I can transfer files to it, but windows DOES NOT recognize in the device manage so when I tried to use the flash tool, after clicking "Start" it pops a new window which gets to 60% and then stops saying the phone is not connected to the pc.

I just got over something like this this morning. First, you need to ensure you have the LG Universal drivers installed for your phone. Get them here.
Next, reboot your machine.
After this, I made sure the PC recognized all 3 modes of my phone, TWRP mode (boot to TWRP, connect), Download Mode (boot to download mode with cable) and, at least in my case, the flashing lights mode (shows up as QHUD Bulk or something).
After that, I ran the KDZ restore program successfully.
Good luck and let me know how it goes.
Hello people,
First of all, I'm new here with english as my secondary language, so be easy with me, please.
So, I have my unrooted LG G3 D855 with locked bootloader and when I'm trying to boot it up 'Kernel Crash' appears with options to 'reboot' (which makes it back to crash again) and Dload Mode (it doesn't do anything). I saw posts with it but I didn't find fix for myself. I tried to install custom recovery and get custom ROM but my 'USB debugging' is not enabled. I tried finding threads with enabling USB debugging via PC but I dind't find proper answer. I also tried to enter in mode where you can make a factory reset, tried it and Kernel Crash appeared again. And sometimes crash doesn't appear but then I'm stuck with boot loop.
Did I do something wrong ? Is it even possible to do anything to make it work ? I don't need data or media, just need to make my phone work.
I hope it's a good thread and someone can actually help me. Thank you.
I had "Demigod kernel crash" and solved by reflashing phone with a professional box using 910k USB cable, since LG software upgrade didn't recognize the phone
I wasn't able to save internal memory data because TWRP crashed at startup and was formatted in F2FS
Since you have locked BL you just have to reflash stock ROM, just hope that phone will be recognized from PC

Is your device goes to DOWNLOAD mode? (You can do this by powering off device completely then hold volume up key and insert usb cable).
If you have DOWNLOAD mode, then flash stock firmware. (Remember, if you flash using LG Flash Tool, then you have two options of flashing (Normal Flash & CSE Flash. In normal flash, your internal memory will not formatted. In CSE flash, internal memory will be formatted. This is what i learnt from my experiments.). I'll hope this helps.
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!
