LG G3 is bricked, unable to turn on, and Code Error 43. NEED HELP ASAP!

So....... my LG G3 had a new OTA update for T-Mobile and I was an idiot to download and install the Update(YES I WAS REALLY DUMB TO DO THAT). So when my phone restarted, it automatically went to TWRP and I couldn't boot to system. I tried everything from hard reset to fiddling with the settings. When I attempted to turn on my phone, it wouldn't turn on even with charging the phone, using the buttons, and especially when I plug my phone into my computer. It gives me Code Error 43( Unrecognized USB Device) and now I'm in a hellhole attempting to fix this device by tomorrow. I need help ASAP before I lose my mind
P.S I'm rooted with Purple Drake and using ZoneROM

Can you boot into Download mode ? (Device turned down hold Vol Up then plug in to pc)

Nope. Can't even turn on the device and keeps on saying error 43. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME OUT OF THIS NIGHTMARE

Try to plug it on another usb port. And when you try to boot into download mode nothing happens ?

Yep! For two hours straight and I have all the drivers downloaded. Drivers worked perfectly until it turned off.......
I hope it turns on before tomorrow. Keeping my head up until it is fixed

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...cognised/6a2a5531-8b80-4798-9aa6-ee2dcb705c7f
and if that doesn't help try to uninstall that Unknown Device from your device tree in Device Manager and install the drivers again.

That didn't work either. I believe its my LG G3 because I was fiddling with the "SD Card Partition" and it had an System Fat32 error and it shut my phone off completely and now it won't turn on after that. Is there a way to reset or reverse my Partition settings?

Update: The phone is charging on my portable charger but won't turn on nor connecting via Windows 8.1

I found the problem. After doing some research, my phone is being half brick and im using Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008(COM3) but I don't know how to push files or how to use qhsusb_dload on the LG G3. PLEASE HELP ME

I've never seen a device that doesn't boot into Download Mode.
So you're doing everything exactly like this man does and on 0:25 you can't see that Download Mode icon ?

Nope not working at all, either its trolling me or its officially dead. It just says im still ported into Qualcomm on my screen instead of download mode

Please help guys, I really need help before tomorrow. No boot, no screen,no download mode, no usb connected except for qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 (com3) and can not use lgflashtool. Does this means its a hardbrick and I can't do anything to unbrick this device and I need to call T-Mobile for another phone or can the dev gods help me fix this phone problems soon. Please answer asap

U said, u fiddle with the sd card partition which I think shouldn't do... Best option is to take back for a replacement or repair my friend...

Thats the only option? I heard there is another way to reset it

I had the same problem .. I tried to update my phone with ota and the same happend to my phone .. I downloaded the latset stock software it was .kdz and i used lg tool and from control panel i changed the port to 41 and it did work

Put the phone into download mode, go into device manager, ports(COM), you should see LGE then right click on properties, Port settings, advanced, then change COM port 41.then click ok and you should be fine.

It has to be similar to this but I dont think the LG G2 variant would work on this and forgot to mention the usb is called qhsusb_bulk

[Q] How to un-brick a wrong bootloader flashed 5x (in qhsusb_bulk mode)?

Hi,
I made a brainless mistake. When "fastboot flash bootloader", I chose a wrong image file. After rebooting, my 5x keep in blank screen no matter which key pressed. That means, no fastboot mode.
Plug it into a PC with USB cable, the PC can recognise a device connected and name it QHSUSB_BULK.
Following http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/req-help-to-unbrick-t3251740, I installed all drivers but Windows still can not find the driver for QHSUSB_BULK. And LGUP also can not find mobile device.
What should I do? Is there any way I can flash the correct bootloader? Thanks a lot!

any luck? I did the same dumb thing.

i've got qsdloader 9008 , no recovery , no download mode , sometimes it goes to bootloader . but can't hang on it , it's dead itself .

My search results show some people able to get their Nexus 5X work again by sent to LG to fix.
LG did not sell this model where I live and they said they do not have software to fix it. So I guess it's dead end for me? sigh..

yess sometimes , i just leave it for now , waiting for new motherboard or sell it seperated

99% sure i bricked my phone

Hi guys, this might sound really really stupid but i wanted to flash my phone back to stock and i accidentally flashed in the nexus 5 file instead of the 5x ones and now i cant enter recovery mode. Windows cant seem to detect the phone either (USB device not recognized).
Anyway around this? Thank you

This should work for you. If it does, post back here and in that thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/req-help-to-unbrick-t3251740

Check device manager. A lot of times I would have to manually point my computer to install the driver.

It does not work.
I did exactly the same thing with fireymint. The N5X never boot and is always black screen since the bootloader is bad. But PC can recognize it as QHSUSB_BULK and drive it as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008. I believe some tools can flash correct bootloader in that mode.
Till now, this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...-unbrick-nexus-5-stucked-qualcomm-hs-t3043301 provides a solution to the most similar situation of Nexus 5. But it is not for Nexus 5x. Perhaps, the only thing we can do is cross fingers and waiting for some guru who can provide rightful tools.

What happens when you hold the power+vol up+vol down keys down simultaneously for a few secs? Are you able to get into fastboot mode at all?
If not, as others stated above, the bootloader is corrupt. You could try to change your USB driver and use the LGUP tool mentioned in thread links above - but those processes are proprietary and not well documented (and may still be dependent on a functional bootloader). At the end of the day, it's probably worth contacting LG or Google support and asking if they can repair/reflash the device. This might be covered under warranty, and if not, they may only charge a small fee for the service. The frustration it would save you in trying to bring a "hard" bricked device back to life is substantial.

Same problem.
Now can you fix.

I believe your phone should be able to load "Download Mode" with a bad bootloader, but I have no way to try that. Download mode is when you hold Vol Up + Power. Then you should be using the tools from second post.
Also there I see, that they only have files for a 32GB model, if yours is 16GB, the guide will not work! I am waiting for my USB A -> C cable to arrive, after that I think I may be able to provide the files they need to compile the files you will need for a 16 GB Nexus 5X. Other that that, you can always send it in for warranty. If nothing works for you, nothing will work for them, so they just might replace it.

Try volume up+connect phone to PC. If it isn't detected try charging it for 30 minutes and then the same thing. If that doesn't work try a different USB cable and/or different USB port on your PC.

i will try and get back to you .. thank you so much i appreciate your help

That sounds exactly like the situation I had. Your motherboard is probably fried. Get it to your service center. Especially if you have the warranty.

I was in the same situation. For me sometimes I got port 9008 and sometimes USB device not recognized. However every time I got a Sahara Fail. Keep trying to flash the s288 row with different cables/ports. That's all I can think of.

he just said he heated on the memory chips or something like that .. apparently the flashing problem was my win 10 device . because once the phone show 9008 com on flashing software the flash process went ok on his win 7 device

There's another thing that I would like to add. When the flashing fails and phone becomes dead(seems dead), it is not in a powered off state i.e. it actually is in a dormant state in some occasions. That is, it doesn't respond to any actions performed like plugging to pc, plugging charger e.t.c.
For older phones with a removable battery, we could simply remove the battery and turn the phone off completely before trying to flash again.
But since newer phones like our Vibe P1 doesn't have a removable battery, we need to switch the phone off manually.
There is a method for that given in this link.

Are you able to run this:

That fixed my bootloop but I didn't remove the bootloader. You might be able to get in via the USB drivers in that video URL. Qualcomm_USB_Driver_2.2.0.0_Setup dot exe
