Hello XDA!
A few months ago I won an LG Optimus Me P350 and I recently discovered that no recovery mode.
I tried to follow a tutorial offered by this community and unfortunately I failed in fastboot.
I tried something with cmd and I remain "locked" .. I say that is waiting phone.
And with KDZ not know how well I did, but with 3GQCT Emergency Mode and Select Emergency calls me at a time that does not detect the phone, which is strange .. since it detects the computer ...
Probably a very old version and no firewall or KDZ file rather not be too good.
Let's try a little with KDZ, and if you fail I hope to find here a solution posted for you!
I know I can somehow manage to get rid of this problem.
I wanted to install android 7.xx (not sure what version I had) with recovery mode .. but unfortunately went into fastboot.
Thanks in advance!
Which guide did you follow? I compiled the one on XDA Wiki for Optimus Me so I know the ins and outs of flashing this phone. Can you be more specific on what problem did you face?
Hello guys,
I upgraded my friend's recently purchased LG Optimus G.
I rooted the phone successfully with TWRP recovery.
I Unlocked the boot loader successfully.
I flashed a custom android 4.3 rom.
The phone was working absolutely fine.
Then, my friend took it home with him, and tried to flash another custom rom (He is a noob).
Now, after rebooting, the phone flashed the 'google' logo with a grey 'unlocked lock' icon and the screen goes blank.
I can not even figure out if the phone is on or not (the soft keys does not light up if I touch them).
After all, I tried to use the UNBRICK method using a guide but the problem is that the software won't proceed after extracting .KDZ file.
I tried downloading .KDZ file using the xda app which asks for phone model and serial number for the download, several times but no success.
I tried downloading the .KDZ file using a URL in which i have to write the IMEI number to get myself a download link. That shows corrupted too.
Can anybody help me to get a working KDZ file?? I think this will get me through the process.
OR
If there is any other possible way, please let me know.
Thanks in advance

I had the same problem. Try downloading several KDZ files cause the programm won't download the good one at once. I got mine at the 4th attempt.

1: Google logo plus unlock icon seems nexus device. May be he tried to convert it to nexus 4. I never tried it nor know if it requires any different way to get stock, so search.
2: download kdz from here choose 1gb or less kdz.

kdz installer we have cant extract files greater than 1.05 GB i do manage to get 1 or 2 files that were 1.08 GB but most wont.
max is 1.05 GB in my experience.
okay, thanks for the information!
Hey! I have done the download, used the update tool in CS_EMERGENCY mode, done with everything. now the phone is stuck on the LG logo..
I put it in recovery mode, and i used the wipe tool which was told in the guide, but the phone again stuck with a lying android bot with an exclamationary sign in a triangle.
What can I do next?
This happens.when you are not reading before. If you would do that,you would see that you need to perform a hard resetafter using kdz updater.
My advice,use the updater again and do a hard reset.on stock it's easy.

Don't know what guides you all are using
Only guide you need
1: get kdz 1.05 GB or less for your specific phone
2: using kdz flasher flash the kdz
3: if your phone boots goto backup and reset and do wipe. If not shutdown phone and do hard reset / wipe
4: root your phone And i mean just root your phone.
5: use freegee to unlock boot and get custom recovery. (If you want this)

U missed the hard reset!! Since kdz is dirty flashing!
This is so frustrating. I've downloaded kdz file so many times from 1.05Gb to a 0.98Gb, none gives a correct extraction in kdz update.
Just got the phone today and successfully rooted it and I wanted to see what this xposed framework stuff was about I installed the experimental version (tbh did really read it was experimental it was on the front page so I thought it was alright) and when prompt to reboot I did, but now when rebooting I can't get passed the Lg secruity error screen I tried re-flashing back to stock using this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799647 but nothing happens after I plug my G3 back in it just says ready is there any other way to fix this security error?
edit:found out that my model number is actually the f400s (sorry i'm a phone noob) for anyone else out there trying to find your phone model it's actually behind the battery

Again I ended up resolving the issue myself and I do not have a picture of the error but I can describe it. When booting my lg g3 the normal big Lg logo appeared then after a bit a smaller lg logo appeared with the words "security error" under it for those looking for a solution to that problem the thread in the op is the correct action to take to resolve the issue. Note doing that wiped everything on my phone which was not a big deal for me but I had to take my phone back the the carrier to input the configuration to access 4g lte again & it unrooted my phone.
i have this same issue can you tell me how you got around it?

jerimynal wiley the error you get "secure boot error" is caused by image you are trying to boot not being bumped or not properly flashed. I assume you get this error both while trying to access recovery and OS. If that is the case you should use this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089&nocache=1
to flash stock firmware on your device.
But if you have a case where you are able to access your recovery (TWRP I assume) you could use one of the custom images provided here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development (assuming you have D855 version) . Flash them and use them as OS.
Thanks man. I actually could get into recovery so I just flashed another kernel

Same here..
First of all I want to Thank cybertag (a member at reddit.com) whose help made me find this solution. And sorry if my English is not good, it is not my first language. As I don't have enough posts here, XDA restricts me to post external links so this is the best I could do. I will add links to the files needed once i am allowed.
A few days ago I was tinkering with after my lg g2 ls-980, the sprint version of lg g2, rooted but no custom recovery installed and I made my first mistake of changing the model number from ls-980 to D802 in built.prop file thinking that it will only change the model number shown in the hardware information and restarted the phone. Once my phone booted up after that restart everything was crashing. There was a huge number of crash reports popping on the screen and I was not able to use anything. So I downloaded the .tot files of the stock firmwares LS980ZVC and LS980ZVE (don't know why but I downloaded both) along with the .dll file needed to flash the firmware for ls980 and when I tried to flash the firmware booting the phone in download mode and using the LG Flash tool but it gave me an error saying that the firmware does not match with model number of my phone. Both firmwares gave the same error. My phone and the flash tool both were thinking it was D802 while it was not.
Now i made my second mistake and downloaded the stock firmware for D802 and flashed it using LG flash tool. The firmware was flashed successfully without any error, but when the phone booted up after the flash the touch screen was behaving funny and phone restarted every 15-20 seconds because this firmware was not meant to be used with LS-980. I was unable to do anything the way touch screen was behaving.
I spent most of my time for the next few days googling for the solution and searching on XDA and also on reddit. I found multiple threads reporting that a generic no-check DLL file is the savior in this situation, but when I tried to run it I get continuous errors telling me the following: "CrossDL [D8012] to [LS-980]". Then i found this thread by cybertag on reddit which lead me to the right direction. It suggested to hex edit the .tot file for ls-980 so that the flash tool thinks that it is for D802. So I grabbed a hex editor and found the first mention of LS-980 and changed it to D802, saved the file and tried o flash it but it was still giving different errors. Then someone suggested it only works if you edit the .tot firmware in linux based OS. So i installed ubuntu OS on a virtual machine and tried editing the firmware in that OS using Bless Hex editor, still no success in flashing. Then I tried editing in pinguy OS but in vain. Then I found FlexHex for windows and used it for editing the LS980ZVC.tot firmware did the same thing, found the first mention of LS-980 and changed it to D802, saved the file, flashed it and bingo! the flash tool gave no error this time and flashed the phone successfully.
Now there was another problem. When the phone rebooted after flashing the firmware it got stuck on LG logo forever. And when I tried to boot it into download mode, the download mode was gone and it took me to fastboot mode. The phone was stuck in bootloop and there was no download mode anymore. Now after more searching i found a method to resolve this problem. Downloaded the aboot.img and laf.img partitons for LS980ZVC and flashed both using fastboot commands. Tried to boot into the download mode again and it worked and i was in download mode one again. When I checked the phone model was changed back to LS-980, the original one. Flashed the LS980ZVE firmware from original .tot file as it was the latest version available to date and it flashed without any error. When the phone rebooted after completing the flashing process, it was as good as new, up and running the original stock kitkat rom for this model. Tested and tried everything and never noticed any issue.
Thank you @tauheed that will help a lot of people I'm sure.
Thank reddit member cybertag out there to.

the only possible option is to flash the aboot.img and laf.img partitions. But we need to find a way to do so in your phone's current state. Things can be a lot easier if you could manage to get into fastboot mode.

I am the same problem as yours with another phone I have. It is a D800 which was wrongly flashed to D802. After flashing the D800 firmware with the model name edited, it is stuck on LG logo and it won't go to download mode either.
Not yet. I'm still waiting...total dead phone now.
Hey everyone. I hope all of you are fine. I was playing with my phone, rooted and installed twrp correctly. After that I thought of installing cloudy G3 2.5. For this, unfortunately I didn't watch any tutorial. I just simply placed the zip file in the device (not in any folder) and rebooted in recovery mode. There, I tapped Install and located the zip file. The process started. Everything was going fine. But when the process finished, it gave an error msg (don't remember exactly what it said). After that whenever I tried to reboot the phone, it kept on saying "kernel crashed", " press up for dload and down to reboot".
When I tried to flash it using LG flash tool, the download menu changed to English (previously Korean). And when I tried to flash the stock firmware for LG G3 F400L using LG Flash Tool, it gave an error of wrong device model (saying, cloudy g3 2.5 D855). Then I tried to flash D855 European ROM but the same error persisted. From now on, every time I connect a USB cable to my device or even try to turn it on, it automatically opens that Download Mode (English).
Kindly help me...
A sincere thanks for reading this.
Have a good day.
oh my this is also happening to me now, problem is i just stuck in the small box stating download mode but reboot then never been to the download mode instaed
does your phone fix?
Yes. The problem that I faced was fixed... All thanks to a post I found on a website lgg3root.... Text me on Facebook if you want direct link to that post as I can't upload an outside link in the thread...
