I didn't had the same issue as you, but had a similiar one (phone didn't get discovered neither by LGUP nor LG Flash Tool). Yesterday I fixed it by following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
In particular the part where you change your device to COM41 in the device manager.
After you get it discovered by LG Flash Tool flash an official KDZ.
Reboot the phone and connect it to your Windows, allow the connection from the phone screen.
It should promt you to install drivers on the computer, do that (they are different from LG Drivers you download from the web mind you)
Now you can change your COM port back to 3 and everything should be fully discoverable by both LGUP and LG Flash Tool.
I think I replied to you on reddit (same photo) Have you tried plugging the phone in while in download mode ? Did you try installing drivers from the internet ? Coz thats how I fixed the same problem you have.

Exactly, here I am running around in circles over this BOOST Stylo 2, just got it with MM 6.0.1 out of the box 2 days ago. I caught the 454.4mb update it has been trying to do! Got that baby downloaded! 1.02gb unzipped and renamed to kdz. Got a script for Terminal that will replace Kingroot's temp root with SuperSU but I am not going to attempt any further until I know LGUP will recognize and flash my .zip the bas****s deem not worth enough to put up for download on LG's site!
I got LGUP to recognize it in download mode, reads out LGLS775 but still says it cannot open it...............
His info on how he got it to work would prolly have solved this dillema..............
oh well
zach
ok had a LG G3 that's done this- as long as you can get download mode it should recover, YOU need to use the LG mobile support tool from LG website ( LG UP sees phone as unknown model ) run LG mobile Support tool and in option choose UPGRADE RECOVERY . follow instructions and allow to start process, it took 57 minutes to repair my phone - it will seem frozen anywhere from 0% to about 22% JUST WAIT IT OUT!! lg up / twrp flashes in 5 to 10 mins -- the LG m.s.t writes block by block and takes 1 hour +
so hints and info took 3 goes to find and start upgrade recovery - error on a couple of attempts. phone seems frozen around 10% and 15% of firmware upload -- go make a coffee drink it, go pee then come back and worry! A watched pot never boils!....

It didn't. It's EVEN MORE broken :'(
I figured out how to get my PC to recognize my D851. Apparently all the LG software didn't like how many COM ports I have. As soon as I unplugged everything else from my PC, the software worked. In this case, it was LG Flash Tool 2014, but I couldn't get any of them to work before.
Try running LGUP as Admin!!! For me it worked!

Hope someone can help me. I flashed a rom for a d855, d855g30 I think, and although I can access download mode all aps for flashing fail saying it's the wrong model number. Even the generic DLL file cant trick it. It still starts booting the rom but boot loops before entering. I no longer have twrp and when I try to do safe mode or factory reset I get a boot validation error or something similar. Just seem to be stuck. Im using a VS985.
One cause of LGUP "UNKNOWN"
While an old thread, it'll be found in searches. For anybody who gets "UNKNOWN" device with LGUP for the LG G3, I found that LGUP for the G3 is often distributed with the wrong DLL file. See the details here, post #11. After installing LGUP, make sure that the "model" subdirectory in the LGUP program directory is the same number as the processor in your phone, in my case c:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\8974 (was 8994 with the "LGUP for G3" I downloaded).

Hello all,
Well, it's here... Unfortunately my phone got bricked last night
Can't boot into main screen and can't go to download mode anymore. The cause is, my phone was stuck when upgrading firmware and there's nothing to do about it except remove the battery, and then, BOOM!... "Secure Booting Error! Cause: boot certification verify"
Any LG G3 users here already experienced this problem?
I followed the solution on LG G2 sub-forum, but my ubuntu doesn't detect the port, although Windows recognized it.
If this happens to your G3 and you solved it, please share your experience
Thanks

Not at all.
Finally, I claimed my warranty with LG, and the motherboard got replaced.
It's all working now
You could have unbricked it... I've done that twice already
im stuck in this, how?
I'm stuck at the same thing since yesterday.
could you tell us the solution @nofait?
I've been researching about this and noticed one thing,
if I hold the lg combo (vol up + usb cable), and keep holding it until it passes the secure boot error and the screen becomes black,
my device (d855) goes to the Qualcomm Download Mode (it's detected as ''Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008'' on windows 8.1 x64)
Apparently, on that mode we could use Qualcomm tools (QPST) to reflash the bootloader and the matching laf image (the one that brings up the download mode)
so we could then flash any KDZ using LG Flash Tool.
To do so we need to extract the bootloader files, sbl1.bin, aboot.bin, rpm.bin, tz.bin, boot.bin, and laf.bin, from a tot/kdz firmware converting them to mbn format.
Then using QPST eMMC Download Tool, we load the partition table xml and 2 image files: the flash programmer file and the qcom boot image, which I'm still trying to figure out where to get them since I can't dump my own phone, and then we might be able to recover it.
I'm still looking into it and hopefully we can find a way.
I did not send my phone to lg service, yet, because I think they will take too long to fix it.
It happened to me a few days ago, but i had TWRP fully working so i could simply flash a ROM and then recover my things.
That thing about windows recognizing it as a msm8474 was a drivers issue (al least for me), i have a S5 too, i think that when i was tryng to get Heimdall working it changed the drivers (as you may know, s5 and g3 have the same board), so i just simply uninstalled it and then reinstall everything using .exe files from LG's website, after that windows 8.1 recognize it perfectly and i could flash KDZ without problems.
Other experience i had and that may help is what happened to me using an LGOG, couldn't boot, no recovery, no nothing, just trying to turn it on, it managed to get in fastboot mode (but with screen off and red LED all the time),from that point it was just about typing commands and flashing img to get it working

Hi,
You'll need to use a Windows 7 machine and the proper LG USB Driver (first post of this message) and change it to the COM41.
Do a BOARD DL and when the screen comes up and tells you to not touch it, ignore and press OK. Then press the power button and at the same type touch the "Normal +power". It should reboot and everything should be fine
Cheers!

So,
Should I use windows 7 32 bit or is it fine with 64 bit?
Will I need a .TOT file and a DLL for my model ( D855P 16gb ) or can I use a KDZ file?
EDIT: ok so I tried it, but flash tool failed to get model information from the phone.
were you in download mode? I can't get to download mode here.

I rooted and flashed Sphinx. The ROM somehow kept me from hearing the other person on the other line when making calls and they couldn't hear me. So I was trying to unroot by using the Flashroot tool method. And now I'm stuck on download mode.
I have a d855. How do I unroot properly and how do I get out of the download mode.

I don't have the links to the tread where I got these from but lets just hope I don't get banned.
1) go to download mode
2) install this and download the correct .kdz file for your phone
-Modelnumber is ...
-serial number is your imei number
- wait until the download is done
3) run the lgflashtool2014.exe from this zip
-Select type= cdma
-phone mode= Diag
-reset time=33000
-Should be like this when You run it
-select kdz file= is where you need to find the kdz file you just downloaded(step 1)
-then press cse flash
-in the now pop-up window select start
-select your language
-ignore error (cannot connect to lg server)
-check progress on phone up to 100% then boots in recovery installs and restarts
-wait untill it goes to the welcom screen then you can unplug
-now the most inportant step Like my post
to enter download mode do this:
--You must switch off the device to start the process.
--Then press and hold the “Volume Up” and connect the USB cable from phone to PC.
--Use the original USB cable. Because, other device’s cable may not be detected in the Computer. So, only we recommend it to use the original-- one that you got it when you bought the phone.
--Wait for the driver installation on PC.
--Then you will get the download mode screen in your phone.
--That’s it.
I have the opposite problem, can't get into download mode haha

I can't find the .kdz file. I have the D85010d.
Also, i ran the original lg firmware, I also get an error saying it was unsuccessful or i may have keyed in something incorrect.
When I run perform the TOT method, I get the "device model is different".
So, d85010d was stock and I flashed sphinx d855... where they incompatible? im assuming no because the phone ran fine aside from the issue i stated on the original post.
would like more help.

I was in your position. Once you enter the download mode it is *almost* impossible to get out without removing the battery. I've heard a lot of suggestions like pressing the power button for 10 or 20 seconds or even doing that in combination with other keys, BUT the ultimate truth is that you have to press and keep holding power button for at least 1 minute. I didn't time exact seconds, but it was ridiculously long time. Probably it will take you less time removing the back and re-sit the battery, but personally I hate removing the back without serious reason
About the second question - I was unable to flash anything in LG's download mode. I'm using Ubuntu + virtualbox (Windows 7 inside), but due to issues with drivers and/or virtualbox and/or usb port forwarding I was unable to reliably connect and flash the stock kdz image. Fortunately I've sent the phone back to the LG repair office and they re-flashed the firmware for me.

It is not exactly what you want, BUT at least you can get your latest, official KDZ file from LG.
Open in browser the following URL, but replace the xxxxxxxxx
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=xxxxxxxx
where xxxxxxxx is your IMEI number
As a result you'll get an XML file that will contain the location of your latest KDZ update, which should look something like this:

If you can't get in that, then something very serious happened!
you sure you can't enter it?
Otherwise, it would mean you messed up the bootloader!

Hi guys, i know it's an old post but i get the same issue.
I was following this tutorial https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1058206-lg-g3-lineageos-tutorial/
I was on lollipop.
I initially downgraded to kitkat (V10e) using LG UP and then rooted with purple drake.
In the following reboots, "kernel error" occurred.
So I tried to flash the kitkat stock version again but without success.
I'm stuck in download mode and tried to flash both the kitkat version, the lollipop and the marshmallow, through .tot and .kdz, I tried both with LG UP, LG Flash tools v 1.8 and with LG flash Tools 2014 but in all cases unsuccessful because the phone reboots before it ends.
Now I don't know what to try anymore. Do you have any solution, please?
Thanks in advance.
Hi
I have a t-mobile D851 LG G3, for which i was trying to restore to STOCK software, through one of the guides elsewhere on the forum. My first try FAILED, and now the phone is stuck on the "FIRMWARE UPDATE - Do not unplug the USB connection until the process is finished - USER B51" screen
No matter what i do (all key combinations for recovery mode, download mode), plugging, unplugging the phone, taking the battery out for 30 mins or so, and putting it back - NOTHING is working. It all goes back to the screen mentioned above.
I tried running the LG Flash tool again, but it fails.
Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated. This phone is my daily driver, and I am in a major fix without it.

EDIT - SOLVED
Thanks to everyone who chipped but especially to pside15 and one other person (but i can't find his post)
The solution was very simple - I was making the idiotic mistake of looking at just the computer screen and NOT the phone screen. The computer kept giving me all sorts of errors saying 'update failed - can't connect to server, yada yada' etc. I just left the phone alone - came back 10 mins later to working phone.
Moral of the story - Watch BOTH the phone screen and the computer while doing these things, because my computer had me believe that this is not gonna work - the phone obviously disagreed
When the flashtool fails, whats the error? Its not hardbricked if it still comes on and goes into download mode. Look at THIS image and see if you set action mode the same. This one mistake caused me a headache last night for 6 hours.
Your link doesn't work.
I use this LG Flashtool when I soft-bricked my G3.

it doesn't come into download mode - its just stuck at the 'firmware update' mode at 0%
And does it matter that its a D851 (the t-mobile) version?

The computer does recognize it. But when it comes to the point of verifying connection between phone and LG software update tool, it fails saying 'make sure the phone is connected to the computer, etc'

Uninstall drivers from device manager in computer, reinstall. Make sure to change com port to 41. Also board dl in action mode is a complete overhaul of firmware, the other setting in action mode is to update firmware.

If your phone can turn on an go into download mode you can flash it. Just try w different computers
Same thing happened to me

Im not 100% sure, because I have the Sprint LS990. As far as the model # goes, it has to be the exact one, which should be under your battery. I'll look into it more in a few hours when I get off work. Try HERE for tots and dlls

How to Unroot/Unbrick LG G3!
My Phone was up and running and I forgot to close the LG Flash tool on my PC. The flash tool started to flash my phone again, at about 80%, when the tool restart the phone , it never came back and since then I am sitting at the firmware upgrade screen.

So to start i was on Art Mod v7 and i saw that he posted a black theme so i installed it after installing some system stop responding what i guessed that it might be i didn't wipe cache, well i did that and got into soft brick, i am not blaming him for any thing it was all me , so i should have flashed new kdz but i didn't do that i flashed teenybin Files i dont know why i did that but i did resulted in a different kind of brick.
So problem is i have fastboot i have download mode but device some times get detected on download some times it doesn't when it did i tried flashing kdz through lg kdz flasher but resulted in continuous operation break also no driver is detected in fastboot and more over no recovery as it is in secure boot. I am a noob so please do bear my questions.
do kindly help LGOG is in continous bootloop more to add.
some what LGNPST detects phone in download mode the same application given with teenybin.
Kindly do help i know about android i just read silently but this time i am unable to solve it.
What system do you have on the machine that you're trying to flash the KDZ file? Did you install the LG driver?
I had trouble to flash kdz on my device from Windows 8.1 64bit. The flash would freeze after some time and nothing would happen. Try it maybe on another computer but after installing all the needed drivers.
Which software do you use to flash the KDZ file?
thank you for replying

I used the LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the KDZ file
here is the link: http://www.mediafire.com/download/b2z1etctmettop3/LG_Flash_Tool_2014.rar
Type: 3GQCT
PhoneMode: CS_Emergency
It took me a few tries to get it working, it always stopped at 10% giving some silly error. I dont remember exactly what it was but after few tries it all went okay.
Hope it will help

I'm sorry but I really have no more ideas on how to help you. I did not have similar problems, I had a problem when my phone didn't want to boot anywhere except download mode. But the flash went through after a few tries.
Maybe you should try to flash it on a different computer? Install drivers and everything again and try to flash again. There may be a problem with drivers or something
I got it, done it

it boots into dl mode but i cant flash firmware yesterday i recorded it. it boots to lg logo and after 29 seconds it boot to the android guy i did find something in yellow text but it flickers and that says. in short
E: failed to mount /cache (no such file or directory) then can't mount /cache/recovery/log
can't open /cache/recovery/log
and it repeats that text 3 times from what i saw
did you install twrp? i would check your drivers or the cable for the communication failure in dl mode

My goal is to try and install TWRP my phone fully stock I checked everything even my charging port. I'm using the lg cable... My main goals are to get this fixed before March 3 and all I need is an alternative. Get TWRP or return back to stock
at least give me a script to boot to stock android recovery without adb. cause obviously i cant use adb and i hope anybody reading this can remember that with lg flash tool 2014 kdz method it goes to 4 and stops unless you guys find fix to that. all i need is to get this thing fixed before march 3rd. so if you guys help me find any kind of fix this is all i need
here is info but my phone
model: lg-d852 (don't really need it though)
status: stock unrooted device and has never booted into the system
android version: 4.4.2 kitkat
main problem that needs to be fixed: it cant mount cache cause apparently there is no file or directory according to my phone
that's it. if you guys need anymore info about my phone let me know (except imei or serial number cause that's all private stuff) thanks

I used every method
then you must force it into the 9008 mode using the following guide. I would check the dll you are using, drivers, or cable first through. I would be EXTREMELY SUPRISED of a g3 in DL mode that is non-responsive.

i'm surprised that my lg g3 in download mode with the correct dll, tot, kdz. every single program with a fully working charging port and an lg cable is that unresponsive. although at one point the arrows in download mode started spinning an then it stopped and on the monitor it said on lg flash tool (tot method). CAUTION: Primary gpt has invalid value there must be something blocking the connection
oh and my phone is still getting fixed soooooooooo no updates just yet. but like i said if there are no results i'll update you
