Hi y'all
I've tried unlocking my SX56/XDA from ATT and all went well using the XDAUnlocker tools and roms etc...., but.....
while 'flashing' the rom my pc crashed and rebooted. now my sx56 is stuck in the 'upgrading; will only take 5 minutes' screen. I've tried a hard reset and that don't work. I can't even get the phone connected with activesynch
Can anybody help me please??
Thx; a newbie
Update
Just sat here and browsed the forum for any possible help regarding my problem; there is a solution I'm going to try out.
Flash the rom (build w/ lumpistefan rom kitchen) via bootloader with SD card; now all I need is to buy a SD/MMC cardwriter and I'm on my way.......
Will let you guys know what happens because I've found more peeps with the same prolem.
Oh a quick note: I've bootloader 5.22 and it does recognize a new rom when inserting a SD card with rom; it will ask you to format or download....... Well here goes nothing
L8R
As long as you can get to bootloader it should be fine for sd flashing.
All worked fine
Ok all worked fine; i'll include a step by step (found here ain the forum and will give credits to it) later. i'm kinda in a hurry....... When i upgrade from pc02 to wm03 will i loose all data? if i backup and try to reload data it will not except it?
Please thank these people
I fixed my sx56 with help from these guys after searching and searching
please thank these guys for the solution because all credits go to them.

(This was the most related section to my phone, if I'm wrong please move it and don't delete it. I really need help! lol.)
K I rooted last night, flashed CM7.2
Phone: LG Thrill 4G AT&T flashed to CyanogenMod 7.2
Before you guys tell me to use the search, I have! I've been working on this for 11 hours straight now cause I can't use my phone!
1st Problem: After flashing I had no service. (Yes I used search.) Tried adding APN manually, no luck with many different methods. All the other methods possible required file transfers, which leads me to my 2nd problem.
2nd Problem: My computer will not recognize my phone to transfer files. It will charge however. I tried uninstalling drivers and reinstalling them, etc.
BUT right now I have it open! Yes! Now I just want to know the best files and things to do right now before it won't let me transfer files again. I do not know why it is suddenly reading it so I'm counting on it not being able to after I try fixing everything.
If I flash to a new ROM will I get service back? Should I just go back to stock/unroot? I'd prefer to keep it rooted if I can get my service and everything working.
Thank you guys! I know a lot of these question have been answered and I tried finding them, I really did. But I'm so close now that I can actually transfer files and I just need help! Thank you. I appreciate it.
And by the way I can't just backup because when I flashed to CM7 my original backup got deleted, or just hidden deep away somewhere??

This forum is for the LG Optimus G. You'll probably get some help if you post it in the LG thrill forum.
Here is my OG post...please, anyone, help me to know what YOU would do in this case. I'm freaking out that I have a $500 paperweight I can't take back to Sprint because I'm rooted and on a custom ROM. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Please help me, anyone. I am freaking. I flashed this ROM per the instructions (no I did not do a backup, my fault). However, although the ROM loaded, it told me I needed a T-Mobile SIM for WiFi calling to work. That may have been discussed before. That is irrelevant.
Since flashing this rom (Yes, I did the ROM, Modem, Reboot, and Firmware as said)...I can only make "Emergency Calls," I can't connect to data, can't connect to Sprint cell signal, and for the first time I can't get LG Flash Tool to work to get me back to Stock.
Can someone, anyone please tell me what to do? I need my phone soon because I'm leaving, but nothing works!!!!
Billy

Thanks again for your instructions and help. I got the OTG, followed your steps precisely, and it SAID it installed Stock ZVC successfully (twice, actually)...yet it still will only boot back into TWRP. In download mode, LG Flash tool still doesn't work. This computer has all drivers, Windows 7, and had no issues before this ROM.
Do you have any other ideas? Now I've bought a cable for no reason. Help, please!
__________________________________________________
EDIT: I used these instructions to get me out of the TWRP Bootloop:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2451696
Now I have the Stock Rooted ZVC Odex ROM installed, but STILL, no data, no signal connectivity. I try to update PRL and it says authentication error. I try to make a phone call and it says "Emergency Calls Only." This stuff ONLY happened after this (TMobile ROM). Please help me if you can. I've made major progress with your OTG instructions and getting out of the OTA TWRP Bootloop. Now how do I get past the "authentication" error and get the data and signal restored? Can Sprint do that from their side?
Edit # 2: I called Sprint, they walked me through fixing the MDN and MSID, factory reset, nothing works. It still shows "NO SERVICE," "AUTHENTICATION ERROR," AND ALTHOUGH IN MDN AND MSD my # is correct, in SETTINGS it shows my old (pre-port) phone number.
He told me to take it to a Sprint Store but clearly I can't because I'm rooted and on a debloated ROM. Please, any advice is so much appreciated.
Thank you,
BIlly

This SOUNDS like the answer...but I'm missing an EFS backup and these 2 files. Can I get my hands on these two files?
modemst1.img and modemst2.img????
Thank you... http://www.shiftpda.com/archive/index.php/t-12042.html
I've had this problem. I do think this phone can be wonky when using custom ROMs. Some people have no problem, others have constant problems, and some have problems SOMETIMES. There is no right answer so far.
I would just continue flashing different ROMs until something works. This worked for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2775888
But unfortunately now I have the dreaded touch dead-spot.
have you tried to tot back ?

Yes, they did (hence the reference to LG Flash Tools). It sounds likeyour EFS partition got wiped. If you didn't back up your EFS, I think you're kinda SOL. From what I've read it's nearly impossible to get back your EFS data if you don't have the files. If you can find a way to hack it out by using someone else's files, let me know. I have mine from every backup I've done and if I can remove my info from them I'll post them. Sorry to hear about your issue, hope you find a solution.

I think I have great news. I looked in my ioroot folder and found both of the files (3 MB each) that are modemst1.img and modemst2.img.
I created a folder on the Internal called EFS_Backup, and I copied and pasted those two files into the new folder, renaming them efs1 and efs2. They renamed and stuck in the folder just fine, but running the ADB commands didn't work. So I used the flashable EFS zip in TWRP and it said FAILED.
I'm thinking since I have these 2 files I should be able to fix this, right???? But...the thing that's driving me nuts is that LG Flash Tool, no matter what version, will NOT work on my device anymore. Not with either of my PC's.
Does anyone have a suggestion for what to do now that I found those modem files in my ioroot folder?
I feel like this is the closest I have gotten and now I'm stuck. LG Flash Tools never worked on Windows 8. The OLDER versions worked fine with .tot files BEFORE all of this happened, in Windows 7. Now even Windows 7 won't work to use LG Flash Tools, after I created this mess.
Can anyone PLEASE help me take these 2 files and get them to fix my EFS? I really don't know what I'm doing, clearly, or I would have backed up my EFS first. Problem here is probably same everywhere...I've always done this, never bothered with Nandroid or EFS backups, but also never had the issue of only having an internal memory on an Android device. Stupid mistake.
I would greatly appreciate any help that can be offered. I have one more day and I can still take this phone back...IF I can fix it. Thank you in advance!
PS: I Have my ESN, MEID HEX, MEID DEC, IMEI, ICCID AND IMSI - ALL POPULATED WITH NUMBERS IN SETTINGS. WHAT IS "UNKNOWN" IS MY PHONE NUMBER AND MY PRL.

Hello Guys,
I really hope that you can help me with my problem.
I am having a rooted g3 d855 with TWRP installed properly.
I used the the custom rom [ROM][7.1][D855]Aokp[Android Open Kang Project Unofficial]
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-aokp-t3498725
Unfortunately there were some features missing so i decided to try other nougat custom roms.
I backed up my whole system ( +modem) before testing.
I tried the to install the [OFFICIAL][7.1.0_r7][OTA] XenonHD 7.1 ROM
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/d855-xenonhd-7-1-t3493380
so copied the zip file and the gapps on to my phone, started TWRP
- Did a factory reset
- Wiped the dalvik cache
- Intalled the XenonHD-161115-experimental-d855.zip
- Installed Gappy micro for ARM 7.1
everything worked fine after flashing i was asked in TWRP if i wanna root the system because it is unrooted. I Chose YES
and Then IT HAPPENED
The screen blacked out an couldnt get into TWRP with "Vol Down + Power OFF".
It was Hardbricked
so I followed the steps in XDA Thread
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/general/guide-fix-hard-brick-recovery-guide-t3132359
Everything worked untill Step 5
5. Now fire up BoardDiag by willcracker be sure to run it as administrator. It is in this post named willcracker.rar There are some pictures on how to flash with this app but I will describe it as well. First we are going to need to extract your tot file. This can take some time. Like 10 mintues on a decent PC. The app may look like it froze up but it is just thinking. When it is complete move on to the next step.

I do not have an .tot file
i googled that and dint find the right solution for my problem =). found several extractin programes but the y are all for .KDZ file.
Additional to that the instruction i need the exact .TOT file from my system.
I assume that my system is [OFFICIAL][7.1.0_r7][OTA] XenonHD 7.1 ROM after i Flashed it .
But where do i get the TOT file ??????????????????????????
PLZ. Can anybody help me or know some advice to unbrick my G3.
Thanks in advance
