Hi I have just send it to lg assistance
Search for G3 unbrick here in xda or google. There's a few threads about how to "unblock" the phone.
I've done it twice already because of tests on it...
This thread is supposed to also work on the G3. Thought it might help:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50775936

Hi.
I had the same issue. All i did is do a hard reset on my phone by holding volume down and power button, when you see lg logo release the keys and press power button as fast as you can until you see hard reset.
Hello，everyone,i got a problem that i cant enter fastboot and recovery mode.
today ,i installed CM12 22/7 upgrade ,and before i install this ,i did a backup of build.prop because i have V4A and every time i upgrade CM i have to change this build,prop ,so i want make a copy and when i finish upgrade i can just move that file without do anything ,and everything goes well, i installed upgrade and installed V4A driver ,it says i need restart,so i restarted,but after LG logo ,screen turn black, cant enter system ! i thought maybe i flash CM one more time can repair this,so i press POWER and volume down,but,nothing happen ,after LG logo,and screen turn black,and i try to enter fastboot mode ,its the same ,when LG logo shows screen turn black.......
My phone is LG d855,and my English is bad,i hope you can understand
Can anybody help me?
did you try entering Download mode?
Phone stuck in bootloop, help please
wrong trhead
Are you sure you there is no fastboot and no download mode?
You can enter download mode by pressing and holding the “Volume Up” and connecting the USB cable from phone to PC
If it works then you Soft bricked it...And you can use this guide to fix it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089

BUT if that does not work then you Hard bricked the phone
I had that problem because of flashing with faulty win8 drivers...no download mode or fastboot, all i got was security warning and bootloop. The only way you can fix hardbrick is through JTag, but i don't know if you can fix it without paying someone money, because you need special hardware to do it. You can find people on ebay that can fix it but it will cost you 30-50$.
I sent mine to warranty...they didn't know what was wrong with it and couldn't fix it...and so they just replaced the motherboard. If you have a warranty then send it and do NOT!! tell them you flashed it or rooted it. Tell them you don't know what happened...The chances of them finding out is very small.
If ebay and/or warranty not work, then there was an article on the Internet to fix a hard brick but for some reason it is now password protected...i do not know why....You can send the owner an email so he can give you the password.

i cant enter download mode,always turn black after LG logo
Disconnect cable from pc and phone
Press power + vol -
You will get first black screen, keep pressing until lg logo appears and it shuts off completely.
Then press just vol + and reconnect cable to computer.
That should leave you in download mode or fastboot.

if your sure it's not just a power problem do a hard reset with the key combo
1. Turn your Lumia 1020 off.
2. Press Volume DOWN and keep pressing it while you connect the charger until you see an exclamation mark!.
3. Press - in this order - Volume UP - Volume DOWN - POWER - VOLUME DOWN.
4. Your phone will reset and reboot. Pls be patient during the reset process.
sometimes you need several try in order to make it work and make sure you've charged the battery well before doing it

You need to enable the lumia flash mode. First charge the battery, because you need at least 40%(it's actually 25% but that's the minimum, 40% is optimal) to do a hard reset, then remove the battery. Put the battery back in and press power to turn the phone on, as soon as the phone vibrates hold volumen - and plug it to the pc, the pc should make a sound and that's it, you are in flash mode and you can now use WDRT.
To use WDRT with this method, the WDRT will not recognize your phone so click "phone not recognized" button then click LUMIA and after that the pc will recognize the FIRMWARE of your phone and that's it, continue and the WDRT will start downloading and then installing.

Try entering download mode with phone disconnected from USB cable.
Also try to see if it gets recognized by LG-UP or by LG Bridge. These 2 softwares don't need download mode to be able to flash, just the phone to be recognized on some PORT.
Try also factory reset hard menu. Also try switching between Slot A and Slot B. There is also this backup method. Phone is not dead on one of those slots.
If nothing works (but slot a slot b should 100% work) , wait for the firehose, it's just around the corner. That will restore the phone back 100%.
For more info search v50thinq on telegram app. :good:
I can t get to download as it freezes and without the USB cable it doesn't even try and enter. I appreciate the recommendations. I was thinking of the a/b seit hbut without the use of fastboot I am at a loss of how to switch between the two as I thought the system chose and the switch happened upon rebooting once a system had been selected ie as in turning the unit off after loading the os set a flag to go to the opposite system upon completing the inftframs and boot sequence.

So, if the device, as you say, lost power during an update like that, then almost assuredly you have at least one, if not numerous corrupted partitions.
And, it's specific partitions on the device that allow it to enter download mode. One of these most know about or have heard of is the laf partition. But other have to be there also for it to work, I don't remember exactly what the others off the top of my head, but that info is easily found.
The key thing you need (or any others commenting same prob), is to be able to enter EDL mode and have qfil installed and recognizing the device. If you can get that far, it would be easy to find the correct partitions you could flash with qfil and then immediately go from qfil to download mode.
Many many people have done this. Just get qfil set up (see guides section) and get the device recognized. that takes some effort but it's def doable.
I do not know in depth about all this stuff, I've just been thrown into it because my phone decided to brick itself in a system update after it got into my hands. I updated it and it went into crash dump, a few times, the just nonstop boot looped with the oneplus logo on, and some pixels bugging, then it stopped showing the oneplus logo all together and just boot loops, I can go into fast boot and nothing else, if I restart bootloader it now goes to a charge menu and rarely actually restarts fast boot, I just tried msm and I've tried booting into twrp but it wont work, i believe this is because the phone wont connect to my pc properly but i have tried universal adb drivers, new sdk, and official QUALCOMM ones to all get the same result of appearing in device manager as just andrioud and nothing else with no options for drivers, on msm it would show up but it wouldn't get past waiting for device. also i cant find a proper twrp rom for the 9 pro on here, atleast the stock one, nor can i find it anywhere else, i can only find the img. also i feel I'm missing something with flashing on the fastboot and am not seeing if I'm supposed to be doing something (of the limited things i can do) on the phone, or its all in commands and stuff on here. sorry this is horribly written, I'm tired and stressed because of this.

You shod download "EDL" tool (even called MSN)
unzip and exetute ad admin (read specifications and troubleshooting in the related thread)
ensure tour phone is off
press and keep both volume buttons while connecting it to PC
then the COM X connection should become "green + connected"
go with "start" and just wait the processo to end

Download mode is not vol up + power, that's bootloader
EDL (Download mode) is both vol buttons + power
It should show up in the device manager on the computer as a Qualcomm device if it's worked correctly.

EDL mode is NOT both Volume buttons + Power, it's just HOLDING BOTH THE VOLUME BUTTONS and WHILE HOLDING THE VOLUME BUTTONS, CONNECT THE USB CABLE. The phone needs to be in a switched OFF state before doing this.
By holding both volume buttons and the power button, you will force restart your phone into bootloader mode (fastboot mode).
And VOLUME UP + POWER BUTTON is recovery mode.
