First of all nobody's throwing a fit as u put it! Just sarcasm over the "sit & wait for the updated fix!" Or just read the OP! What kind of answers are they when I'm trying to get rid of KK? Easy for them to say! Didn't see that answer from you! Never got 2nd rate answers from anyone on here before this, nor would I give one like that if asked. Secondly you can actually see the data toggle turn itself to the on position. This has happened consistently since the OTA. The wifi toggle was doing the same thing but a factory reset fixed the wifi. Thirdly I uninstalled the online drivers & reinstalled the LG drivers from the phone. Now flashed JB 4.1.2 & data problem fixed, now need root.

Need help please.

I got this process to work the first time I couldn't get my phone flashed. But now that I want to do it again it won't work. What should I do? Do I have to change the COM port or anything? What to do? When I do as the instructions say and plug back it the phone after I put the dll file and the rom file in it just say ready. I even delete the port and installed again and switched back the COM 41 and that still hasn't worked

[LG Optimus G Pro] shayneflashindaily:
Change com port to 41 ... Make sure you have drivers installed correctly and successfully..... To get into download mode take battery out and hold volume up and down then plug in USB cord.... I don't understand why your phone isn't doing what all the rest of our phones do... Weird

[LG Optimus G Pro] yankeeornovember:
I don't know how to thank you enough

My LG OGP had given me so much hassle and finally went kaput when I tried to flash a ROM through Aroma installer. I followed the directions almost to the letter (save changing the megalock.dll in the LG FlashTools folder, more instructions found near the bottom of this page: http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-g-pro/295725-software-update-t-3.html), but without your guide I'd have been frigged.

This was a life saver!
[LG Optimus G Pro] lessthanzach:
A friendly bump for the tried and tested method. Had to use this to get my Value Pack update. Factory reset my phone like 5 times, cleared all cache and fully unrooted and uninstalled every root app I had and the update still spat in my face. Had to have been a leftover file or what I am assuming was most likely the 2nd Init Recovery.

Well folks, this fixed it for me.

Thanks again [MENTION=1436971]madmack[/MENTION]

Thanks for the link. I'll download it on my PC now.
[LG Optimus G Pro] apascual89:
Thanks for posting this, Got the update and rooted without issues!
[LG Optimus G Pro] turilo:
seems in windows 8 i have issues seeing my device while in download mode in device manager with drivers also installed... bummer

EDIT: ok got it running on a win 7 machine but is there supposed to be some sort of progress bar during flashing? all i see is ready once i re attached the phone in download mode, this normal???
[LG Optimus G Pro] apascual89:
O

Same with me, had to use a win 7 machine.

Once it says ready and you connect the phone , the flashing process should start right away.There is a progress indicator in percentage.
[LG Optimus G Pro] turilo:
Ok I'll give it another go today, seems last night it just hung at ready and did nothing. Thanks for the info :thumbup:
[LG Optimus G Pro] ricco333:
The phone should be disconnected when you click on the yellow arrow, when you see Ready then you plug it in, also the progress indicator in my case only reached up to 95% and then the phone had already rebooted and was doing the initial setup. I flashed the latest value pack tot file.

Hope it helps

Erik
[LG Optimus G Pro] apascual89:
Another quick tip. The first time I tried I forgot to put the battery back in and it failed. Make sure the battery is in.
[LG Optimus G Pro] madmack:
most likely because you haven't changed the com port to 41. make sure you don't skip that step.
[LG Optimus G Pro] turilo:
yep, I followed steps fully I had it at com port 41, but same thing happened again. So i pulled the USB cable out of the phone while still in Downloadmode and plugged it back in quickly and the flashing commenced, might be this PC. all is good now fully updated and rooted with TWRP installed :good::D Thanks again for the Tutorial madmack :cowboy:
[LG Optimus G Pro] madmack:
You're very welcome ! I'm glad you got it resolved.
[LG Optimus G Pro] draiko913:
I had to do the exact same thing. Once the port was ready and I plugged the phone in download mode, it just sat there. I unplugged for 5 seconds and then plugged back in and the process began.
[LG Optimus G Pro] htorrado1979:
I need help: I do all the steps outlined but never starts the upgrade process. is uqeda in wait ... disconnect and connect the usb download mode and progresses.

try another PC (WINDOWS XP) and not moving, that operating system used? should be with the original data cable LG or another brand I use?
[LG Optimus G Pro] anhdvu:
First of all, I'd like to thank you very much for the thorough guide because this is the only way I can get the value update pack.

My experience was pretty much the same as Ricco333's, which was the indicator reached 95% and my phone started the initial setup. However, at the end of the flashing process, LG FlashTool said Download FAIL!! and the error was F0000002.

Is it normal? Should I do another flash?

My phone seems working properly. I can see all the updates of the value update pack.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Dale3k21:
Read through all the pages here and it looks like this works wonders. Unfortunately, nothing matched my issue exactly. I have TWRP installed on my phone and now I've gotten it stuck in a loop and all I can get to is the TWRP boot. When I turn the phone on, it has the LG logo then has the same error listed before about secure booting error. Can I fix it with the method in the thread or do I have to try another way? Also, I did make a backup before it messed up, but restoring and doing factory resets hasn't changed anything.
[LG Optimus G Pro] madmack:
I personally wouldn't change or do anything. I think you're good :good:

Yes, this method will most likely reset your phone successfully as it resets all partitions.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Dale3k21:
Worked like a charm. Unfortunately for me, AT&T didn't put my contacts on my SIM card when they transferred them over. so now I have to get those back. >_<

Can you perhaps provide a screenshot of that error, along with what version of LG Flash Tools you're using.

I've flashed my LG e980 about 100 times with LG Flash Tools 1.8 with the 1.5x DLL, using each of the stock TOTs.

Download fail? Use this dll....UNIVERSAL

Been working at this forever. If you fail your download use this DLL, basically it's universal. So if your a flashaholic you probably don't know your region, this DLL is universal and will work. Finally!!!;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] calientecafe2001:
use DLL added below
[LG Optimus G Pro] Xcythe:
Megalock.dll

I justed flashed my LS980 back from OptimusG3. This method works great. Just have to do your homework, specific .dll and .tot file from codefire. I use the 1.5.6.527 vers of Flashtool and just replaced the megalock.dll, so no 'date change' and no login/pw necessary. I was reading this thread while it was flashing and it started the second part before I could remove my phone and reboot to d/l mode. Worked flawlessly on it's own. Now I have a stock Sprint LG G2 on zve. Going to StumpRoot and mod it my way until a stable ROM drops. Tired of connectivity issues; wifi, LTE, data, mms. tried DU, CM11, G3 now back to stock. Thanks for the thread.

Lg e980/f240 korean version unlocked phone, has been gone in to download mode

Dear XDA Developers,

i have LG E 980/f240 unlocked phone korean version, few days back my lg software was showing that new software version is available so i have started updating the device but on around 80% updating failed and only one icon is showing on Screen that is "DOWNLOADING DON'T UNPLUG THE USB CABLE'' i have tried everything removed the battery and sim card and inserted again nothing is happening by pressing VIl +- & start + home button also may be it is because the phone is korean version and i was updating it from india, plz help
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
I just used this method and it broke my touch screen too. Tried it twice and both times the touch was unresponsive. Mine is a replaced digitizer if that makes any difference.

Edit: just tried the nov 22 tot file and it worked fine.
[LG Optimus G Pro] spawn4son:
Hey ivoh95 I did that same method because I was desparate to try anything and it worked for me as well , my phone is supposed to be new I bought it on eBay but I guess maybe not since you mentioned about the replacement digitizer, and what I noticed is that you can root the e980 with towel root after the Nov tot file fix but it won't be able to get recovery, every attempt I made to put a recovery sent me back stuck in the LG boot screen , what's your experience ivoh95?
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
I just did this an hour ago and it worked for me

1. Flash the nov tot file

2. Root via towel root

3. Intall freegee and busybox

4. Backup your efs and keep it safe then install twrp recovery in freegee

5. Download an app to boot into recovery and boot to twrp (this version will only work with the internal sd!)

6. Install a custom rom and gapps (i recommend cm11 or pacrom)

7. You can now upgrade the recovery to the version posted in the original development section.

You may need to flash madmacks baseband/modem if your phone does not deepsleep
[LG Optimus G Pro] spawn4son:
Ivoh95 that's the problem, freegee causes a system error I can't get past it then it starts to jump between asking for busybox and freezing, lol I tried all what you did but the one thing I never looked at is to download an app to boot into recovery, what app do you use? What's efs ?
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
Backup efs is in freegee. After you installed busybox, did you open it and install busybox to the system?
[LG Optimus G Pro] spawn4son:
Oops I didn't read all what u said , ill try this method it seems to make sense , don't know if I want my phone to deep sleep after the sleepless nights I faced after semi brick but I will read up on your advice and tips see what I get.

---------- Post added at 01:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 PM ----------

As your apprentice sir, I wanna know How do I flash the baseband/modem?
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
install the rom and avoid installing many apps, test it for a few days and see if you get deep sleep, if you don't, download madmacks from the cm10/cm11 guide and flash it in recovery. Its a flashable zip file
[LG Optimus G Pro] spawn4son:
Hey ivoh95, I installed the quick boot app to try to get a recovery , it rebooted the phone but was stuck on the Android robot with an exclamation mark, anymore suggestions?
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
Are you sure you have a custom recovery installed?
[LG Optimus G Pro] spawn4son:
I seriously thought that's what quick boot doesdoes ,sorry for making you waste your time as well, Common sense should have won here but I tried free gee and it only freezes my phone, I can't install a custom recovery since the semi brick I can only root.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
You may be able to flash a custom recovery using flashify if you are rooted, but im not sure, ive never used that app before lol
[LG Optimus G Pro] spawn4son:
I'll read up and try that as well, thanks again.
[LG Optimus G Pro] spawn4son:
Ok I got flashify and installed it and used it to flash twrp but now all it did was stick on Flashboot mode started udc_start()

I am trying to unbrick my phone for the second time. This time around though, my device is not being recognized by my computer. When I go to device manager it shows the phone under "Universal Serial bus controllers" as "USB Composite device" with a trouble sign on it. When I click properties to get more information it shows the following error:

"This device cannot start. (Code 10)

{Operation Failed}

The requested operation was unsuccessful."

I uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, still the same error. The phone shows its in download mode but the computer doesnt recognize it. I cant seem to boot to recovery either. The phone simply stays on the LG screen when attempting to boot (doesnt cycle) and doesnt show any bootloader unlocked or any message like that.

[LG Optimus G Pro] jeff5347:
Hey all im having a problem. Let me start from the beginning to get you up to speed. I had already rooted and rommed my e980. I was on cwm and wanted to try twrp as I have it on my g2. it wasn't installing thru freegee but I was able to reflash the cwm thru freegee. So I figured id stick with cwm and was on blisspop. So I wiped booted to cwm recovery, wiped bliss and tried to install vanir and got a secure 7 error. So with my rom being wiped cwm wouldn't let me flash vanir or anything. So I had read that secure 7 means the recovery is outdated. I flashed 6047 and rebooted recovery and i got an Lg logo with secure boot error. I downloaded the dll and tot files, load them in lg flash tool and can get in dl mode but the lgft wont recognize the device. How else do i fix this
[LG Optimus G Pro] torch18:
back to stock after a few hiccups

I'll tell the whole story in hopes it'll help someone else in a similar situation.

I've been having the no sound phone problem in CM12 so I've been switching back and forth a lot. Then I started trying out the original development ROMs but something was always wrong or missing. The last one I tried was SlimROM but SU was missing, so I installed SuperSU and rebooted into Phillz touch recovery. I installed it, then tried to reboot, and ended up right back in recovery. After a bunch of flashing attempts, & wiping everything possible I realized I was soft bricked. I found this procedure, plus the replacement MegaBlock DLL and tried flashing back to stock. It'd get about 75-85 seconds into it and then it'd error out (F0000002).

So I thought, maybe the USB port was being flaky. (I've had card readers spontaneously unmount on that one) I tried using another one but it wouldn't start flashing, even though it was seen as COM41 in device manager. Then I thought, maybe it'll work on another computer. So I copied everything over to my wife's computer and voila, success!
