Help, i installed the twrp recovery and went about installing a rom but when i went to wipe the phone i wiped everything. So now when i try to boot into recovery it just shows the lg logo with the l.e.d cycling. No idea what to do please help.
Can you get into download mode, If so you can flash the stock .kdz for your device with the lg flash tool and you will a stock functioning phone agin. Then you can root and install TWRP again if you would like just like you did the first time. But make SURE that you use CORRECT kdz for your device model remove the batteries and under you should she something like this eith the X being numbers or letters: LG-XXXXX find the .kdz for the XXXXX value and flash it with the lg flash tool
Thanks alot, its working but its taking its time still only at 14%
Your welcome if you still need help just ask
G3 boots into firmware update only
I recently updated my lg G3 ( Google patch update named Aug-18-2015 etc) and it started to malfunction with resets, crashing and eventually got it stuck in boot loop. Then it booted into a green screen that said "demigod crash handler/tz crash" thrice. Instead of a hard reset I decided to using the lg mobile support tool to fix it. During the upgrade recovery my phone went into download mode/firmware update. I could see the progress bar moving and then get stuck and my mobile would switch off. Took out the battery, disconnected and reconnected the phone and tried the process all over again but in vain. I repeated this at least 8 times and eventually gave up. Now my phone is basically useless and only boots into firmware update. Hard reset doesn't work either. Can somebody please help me fix this?
Android version : 5.0
Kernel: 3.4.0
Firmware : v20t-ame-xx
Go to the site: http://lgg3root.com/lg-g3-root/how-to-unrootunbrick-lg-g3/ and search for your device and message me back if it works

Hi guys I'm a newbie here and this is my first time posting.
I was trying to flash stock on my LG G3 but I made a really really stupid mistake. I used the flashtool found over here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799647 but I had used the wrong tot file. Now my phone is stuck in download mode. I don't think my phone is hard bricked because it still boots up but only to the download mode no matter what I press. I also can't access my custom recovery now. I have tried flashing with kdz file for my phone using the LG Flash tool 2014 but on the LG Mobile Support Tool the progress bar goes up to 10/11% during the s/w update and I get an error after waiting for half an hour and the progress bar on my phone's firmware update screen only goes up by 2% at most. I can't find the tot file for my phone version to flash with so I'm stuck here. Help please?

hi , i have the same problem.
Did you try to flash the correct .tot file again?
Check the logs for the error which is generated from LG flash tool 2014.
May be you have cross D/L error due to wrong tot file flash.
After modifying build files failed, G4 bootlooped at starting logo.
Tried to repair it with lg bridge, and it was forced to update to 6.0 v20c.
Flashed it with v10fkdz(5.1), and the error message was shown:"Error Code=0x2000, Can't decide current device mode."
Can anybody help me to solve the problem?
I think you broke your download mode; sadly, it is the only mode that you can flash via LG Bridge and LG UP. If you have an unlocked bootloader, you can flash an image through fastboot. As for me, I can't flash on either of those programs since I also broke my download mode and I have a locked bootloader. Otherwise stated, I have a hard bricked device. Waiting for some possible new program to fix my device
I tried on 3 different PCs, and another available G4 device.
The problem is still there.
I don't know why,
but after reinstall LGUP, downgrade of my phone is OK.
Thx guys
Hello, (complete n00b here)
Several days ago I've tried to flash a 6.0 MM (from 5.1) to my LG G4 H815 phone. There was no option to do it automatically so I proceded to do it manually via flashboot.
I hard-bricked it to oblivion as in black screen, no response whatsoever.
While investigating @ the internet I've managed to understand I could get it fixed via quadcomm drivers (mode 9008).
Tried various "fixes" for H815 but was getting safari download errors. For some reason I tried a LS991 fix and it worked. When I started the phone it showed no logo but just a secure booting error 1006.
Still, could enter firmware download so I began to flash a lot of KDZ firmwares with no success.
LGUP shows my model : H81510H.
While in fastboot mode there is a note below (wasn't there the first time) with codes : 633 B46 or something like that.
While flashing anything it ALWAYS STOPS at 9% with a tot anti-rollback error. While flashing the code changes briefly where one can read smth like : LGLS991ZVA ver. 6.0
Managed to download some KDZ for that exact model, SAME ERROR. Tried to find / flash LS991ZVA with no success in finding a TOT file.
Also, managed to get ADB drivers up and it shows unauthorized in listing (LS991). Fastboot does not detect my device even in fastboot mode @ phone.
Please HELP!

H81510h is os version it is still at 5.1 I think....what may help is plug your phone in with lgup and drop the battery out of it then closes of LG up put battery back in and start LG up and find kdz that matchs your phone and make sure that it doesn't have anti rollback.....

Hello and thx for reply. I tried to do what u've said. It did something (I was looking for a while back). When I plug the cable back in, my windows 7 immediately installs quadcomm hs-usb driver (9008) and my phone acts as if it was dead. LGUP cannot find it in that state. I've been trying to QFIL the "proper" soft but it continues to pop different errors (using different QFIL versions). Either saharafail or some sort of download fail.
LGUP still presents an error (if I decide to "fastboot" it) @ 9% 0x2000, TOT antirollback version is smaller than device version.
How can I make sure I've got the proper KDZ without ANTI-ROLLBACK?

Thx again. Uppercut shows H81510H as LGUP did. Is it possible that it's somehow write-protected?
It confuses me, since during the firmware update on my phone, I get this small box below the picture showing wierd codes : 633A Bxx and when I'm trying to flash my phone, the code gets longer with LS991ZVA v6.0 and more other. It then stops.
Funny thing is, when I got the phone I couldn't even connect to the LG bridge to update it at all. I've managed to do it bugging the MTP protocol but THAT on the other hand prevented me from copying stuff / FLASH my phone to MM 6.0. Had to factory reset it back then and all went back to "normal" = LG couldnt detect my device but I could copy photos or stuff from it.
NOW, when my phone is bricked, LGbridge DETECTS my phone (in fastboot), downloads the newest KDZ update BUT cannot install it (same thing as in LGUP). Hence my question : is it somehow write-protected?

Have you tried to eset it by pushing power and volume own then when you see bootsplash then release power button and hen quickly push the power button again....
But in your case push power and volume down within the count or 20 then release power then push power button again and see what happens and then try the same thing on volume up......
Thanks for the reply.
I did what u've said. Despite no logo I tried to release power button for a second just after the screen's brightness goes up (I also get a small vibration @ start). Everytime I get secure booting error 1006 after a few seconds.
On the other hand when I did that with volume UP button there was no error but there was nothing aswell until I release power button in which case I got the secure booting error. All of the above tries were done with no USB connection with anything.

Do try with usb s well it may do something r do nothing......
Can't tell atm since I gave it to professionals. I'll wait and see how it'll turn up. Thx for all the effort tho, was nice to tinker with a lil help
@Longbranch did you solve this problem ? I'm in the same state but my phone model is H810, everything else is the same as yours.
Nope, not really. I gave it back to the reseller and my money got returned luckily.
The professionals I refer to above did install a specific firmware for the ls991 type. Firmware ZVB I think. The only one appliable apparently. Anyways, as I suspected the ls991 type is for the US and therefore it didn't work in my country in EU. My sim card wouldnt work with it. Besides, without the sim card, the phone decided to freeze and die after several minutes every time I turn it on. Swapped for LG G5 and it's working flawlessly up until this day.
good for you, what i don't understand is that it's a h810 model but now identify as ls991 does that mean you can convert it just by a Qfil flash? I may try another model flash if can't find a suitable Rom for it

Yes! That's what I and neutrondev telling everyone :
do not use qfil without the knowledge about the result!
The only working firehose file available out there is for the ls991 and that means if you use it it will turn your device into a ls991 without any way to get back to your previous device model!!

@steadfasterX since I have done it already is there any way to get it working even as an LS991 ?
here is what i did till now
the reason for using Qfill is that it went dead after flashing an H810 rom .
after that when it's in download mode it doesn't allow me to flash the ls911ZV5 ls911ZV6 ls911ZV6_12 roms that i found ( it says LS991ZVA )
so i went in fastboot and flashed boot/aboot/recovery....img extracted from the ls911ZV6 rom then it accepted the rom in download mode
but it is stuck in a hard bootloop ( reboots when it is getting in recovery but still has download mode yet no fastboot as before)
any thoughts ?

Yes it's possible. You can boot a h811 H815 or any other rom you like. Even LOS!!
Great right? BUT you are bounded to the ls991 modem and so you need to be in a sprint network to use telephony. That means the phone is now useless outside the US .
And you wrote you tried ls911 ROMs? I hope you meant ls991
I work on a fully working experience on every network though. Checkout my proof of concept for unlocking the bootloader thread
I can go into details on IRC if you like.

@steadfasterX thank you for keeping up with me ! ( btw what room on IRC ?)
for now I have used Qfill again and got fastboot working again and flashed TWRP ( not sure where ! ) so when the phone is off and i plug the usb it boots to twrp ( but it doesn't in recovery )
normal boot will show "secure boot error 1002"
then i flashed twrp img to recovery partition using twrp but it didn't work in recovery ( still reboots after showing Recovery Mode loading screen )
also tried to load some roms on the device to try them but I got error "file too large for filesystem " when copying them .
atm I don't know the state I'm in and what should be next ?
btw here are the recovery log and dmesg

Np we can bring you back to life but as already said without cell service. That's the price for the firehose and unlocked feeling you have now.
Did you found and read my thread here?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/bl-unlock-unlock-bootloader-proof-t3648288
There you will find some more info and also the IRC details how you can find me. I'm online from Monday to Friday mainly.
It's much easier to talk in chat then here. once all the details are known I will provide a full guide.

Hello from Sweden!
I have had an LG G3 for quite a while now just laying around due to issues I ran into with it after unsuccessfully rooting it, those issues specifically was Factory Reset Status 2.
I've been reading around that flashing it with stock firmware can work, and that's something I've tried but haven't seemed to have such success with as I've tried both the KDZ method and TOT method.
With the KDZ method, using the LG Flash Tool 2014 I kept on receiving errors that the tool couldn't communicate with servers and I never seem to run into any success no matter the flash mode I chose (CSE or Normal).
When doing the TOT method, however, I seemed to get a bit further (it felt like at least). When running the LG FlashTool v1.8 I selected manual mode, selected the TOT (LGD855AT-V10e-EUR-16G) and DLL file (LGD855_20140526_LGFLASHv160) I had downloaded for the LG G3 D855, I also made sure that I was using the action mode "UPGRADE DL" and the connection method "USB" in the software.
I click on the yellow arrow to continue and "READY!!" shows up on Port 1 and I then replug the phone and "Waiting for connection" shows up in the box and I wait a few seconds and it begins, but almost instantly ends giving me the error "Model information Check failed!".
Honestly, at this point, I am fully unaware of what to try. I am willing to provide more information if required to get assistance with this, I am willing to try almost anything to get this phone working no matter if I lose all data or not.
I'm thankful for all tips I get provided to attempt to fix this.
