I got something similar (as reported in the Verizon thread). Mine said "Download failed!!! USB Port Open Fail". But my phone is working fine. Everything, including recovery, seems to be stock.
[G2 General] fabyprado123:
Yea it rebooted fine to stock but i was worried I needed to do another step or something. I think i got the "Download failed!!! USB Port Open Fail" too but im not sure. my phone booted up and then it said waiting for reset 120 sec. and then that erroro came up. I used version 1.6 of lg flashtool for ATT. instead of putting in the key, I swapped the megalock.dll and pasted another .dll file into the flashtool folder if that helps ?
[G2 General] Sathim:
Hi there, after beeing stuck in a bootloop after an unsuccesful cyandelta update

I followed that guide here to go back to stock and get a new start.

Now - flashing rom and everything worked perfectly.

But now I'm stuck in a bootloop again.

LG logo comes up, sound is played - this is repeated endlessly.

No matter what and how I press the buttons.

Tried some more:

If I keep pressing power-on and vol-down the screen stays dark

and the LED flashes red - what the h*** is going on here...
[G2 General] TheSapient:
I think we basically had the same experience, except I was using the Sprint .tot and ,dll. I'm going to stick with this and not temp fate by trying again.
[G2 General] fabyprado123:
I tried it like 3 times again and the same thing happened:/ looks like everything is good , hopefully lol

Edit: try going into settings-Apps-running and tell me what you get ? On my phone it closes settings and takes me back to the homescreen :/
[G2 General] TheSapient:
It works fine for me. I did have one very choppy phone call and one very clear phone call, but I don't know that that means anything.
[G2 General] fabyprado123:
Weird ! I get that box saying settings closed unexpectedly or something like that. I want to flash the poweruser rom but first i have to root. When i flash the rom will it delete everything ? Please say yes !

I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP I CAN GET.

LG G2 SPRINT LS980 running JB 4.2.2

I have nothing, NOTHING on my phone except TWRP.

I wiped the whole phone.

I can get to the TWRP menu. I can put my phone into DOWNLOAD mode.

I have the flash tools

I have like thirty different roms all except any .KDZ files that are relevant to my phone

(as I was unable to find any)

HELP I NEED TO GET BACK TO STOCK

Is there a program that i can use to install any of these ROMS?

How to i get them onto my phone. Once on my phone i could install them using TWRP.

HELP.
[G2 General] TheSapient:
Best thing you can do is be calm and read this thread. Then read the Verizon thread linked in the first post. Download the Sprint files in the OP. Follow the instructions in the Verizon thread, except use the Sprint files. Just expect to spend a few hours building up a knowledge base.
[G2 General] fabyprado123:
If i root my phone after going back to stock and then flash a rom will my phone delete everything including the stock image ? I really hope so ! Anyone ?

LG G2 back to stock

Hi,

I installed aranoidandroid 4.4 on my LG G2. I used flashify and openerecovery 2.6.3.2(+Gapps full modular ) for my international version and after rebooting my phone with flashify to use the openerecovery 2.6.3.2 i made a backup from my current kernel, so its still exists on my internal storage. Now my question:Can i use this backup to get back to the stock android?Or really nead the kdz files where are you talking about?

Hello friends, I use D802,and I'm trying to get back to stock but I'm struck at Step 6.

"

6) In R&￼ Test Tool window,

Select Type = 3GQCT (top left hand side)

PhoneMode = DIAG (top right hand side)

Select kdz file = click to select your LG stock rom *.kdz

Click "Normal web upgrade test" (bottom right hand side)

Then another window will pop up, click "Upgrade Start" button

wait a few seconds, another window "Select Country & Language" pop up,

=> Country=Republic of Korea

=> Language=English

you can click ok to proceed".

When I hit "upgrade start", it says connect to Internet and try again". Is Internet connection necessary for flashing or am I doing anything wrong?
[G2 General] sanke1:
Clean install a custom LG based ROM from TWRP and try again. It has worked for many. Also try using a different PC later.
[G2 General] CannibalOSX:
Great success

Seems to have worked, even though I also got the usb port open fail. OP should update to say that sprint should follow the att method.
[G2 General] hyelton:
I don't think your following the guide correctly. You don't need to worry about MTP you need to be in download mode and in which MTP is not needed that is also normal. You need to look a com ports and see if it shows up. When you see that network error if you actually move the window over you'll see it's actually flashing
[G2 General] agumandal:
I managed to successfully boot my LG G2 D802 after using TOT method.. But i have a question.. On my LG Flash Tool it says "Download Fail !!! ". Is it normal ? FYI I can now play around with my G2 but I'm hesitant to close the flash tool and disconnect the phone from computer until you tell me its normal. :)

BTW huge thanks to you ....
[G2 General] hyelton:
Once it hits 80% it's done and is normal to "fail" but after 80% the rest is just rebooting.

Your welcome ;) glad it worked for you!

HELPPP

Hey, new problem for me. New to all the rooting and such. Not even sure what I did to be honest. But my phone is kinda on a boot lapse, and goes to the lg logo, then goes to a smaller lg logo that saids "Security error" I can get into download mode, and also can launch the "factory reset" but goes to the twrp recovery thing. All the other forums are leading me to this one. So i tried it, but when ever i try to extract the .tot files, winrar gives me an error, saying its corrupt. so I check keep brocken files, ut still gives me the error. Also tried bunch of different programs to extract. Whenever I can download as much of the .tot file on my computer, because I check the "Keep broken files", It gives me a "Failed Previous Load error" In the LG Flash Tool. Btw, phone is D800 LGG2. Att. But yea, I for some reason cant extract the .tot file that I need. Is there any way I can get it, or that you can help me?:crying:

Computer also recognizes my phone, at least makes a sound whenever I plug it up.

[G2 General] hyelton:
The file on my server and OP are intact. Either your connection or your computer is courpting the file. You'll need to use a download manager like free download manager to download the tot with.
[G2 General] DreJ12343:
I tried one, and I tried to extract it again, and it saids the same thing :(......Any other methods??

And also, do I use both .zip on the LG Flash Tool
[G2 General] hamba9551:
hi friend..the instruction on TOT method stated..

4.Extract the TOT file from the Zip- But where do i get the TOT file? im searching about 30 minutes on this post but failed to find TOT file to download.. once more what the basic means of TOT?

thanks :)
[G2 General] hyelton:
You download the tot file for your model.. Which is the firmware link in the OP. You didn't mention your model.
[G2 General] hamba9551:
mine was LG G2 D802 32Gb.. i saw on link was (.exe file) not (tot file)

how to use exe file to tot file?

thanks
[G2 General] hyelton:
When you open it up it extracts. It's an another form of a zip file.
[G2 General] hamba9551:
okay..i try to finish my download file first.. normaly zip file end with (.zip) but this file i saw end with (.exe)..so confuse now.. :(

this file i download right now >> http://storagecow.eu/Xda/LG G2/Stock/D802 tot/BIN_LGD802AT-00-V10b-SEA-XX-SEP-04-2013-32G+0.exe

Yes you'd open it and it will extract. It's pretty much a zip file.

[G2 General] talvigi:
Hay, [MENTION=2607037]hyelton[/MENTION]: [MENTION=4620497]Murshad007[/MENTION] This is talvigi here, i made some mistakes while trying to upgrade an apparently LG G2 D802, And now have many many problems, hope you will kindly help me find a solution,

At the moment i just have white vertical lines on the screen and also some colourful lines in their sides, but verticals are true.

before that, the story is that, my friend had a LG G2 (on its back D802 | FCC ID: ZNFD802 was written)

But when i tried to install the kdz file of lollipop version it lost services and there wasn't any SIM network or IMEI and many other things were missing but the phone was well working as an entertainment device,

I tried the 3845#*802# and did something which i myself don't remember, hence the phone screen also started misbehaving and i could not touch the things i wanted to touch instead i had to touch above some icons if i wanted to touch it. story short.

I opened its back cover and saw that there is LS980 written everywhere on the ribbons, on the back cover,

I DIDN'T OPEN THE MAIN BOARD (may be there is something else)

so in the last i thought it is an LS980 and i managed to download .tot file for ls980 with .dll for storagecowdotcom and tried to flash it with LGFlashtool but the tool said wrong file and abort installation, (yet it told me that the system is D802) and also gave me the IEMI 3541*****5681) so as far as

I also have downloaded the .tot file of D802 before so i tried to flash it and amazingly the LGFlashtool accepted the SW and started the installation process but in the last about above 94% it gave error (i am attaching some pictures) but before that when it was about 85% the phone restarted because the phone had reached 100% on its screen.

Now the white vertical lines are not letting me do or see any thing what should i do?
[G2 General] hyelton:
Anything after 85% is just rebooting. It's Normal to "fail". You don't have a D802. You have a CDMA Sprint LS980 and in which means it'll take some work to get the phone back working. I'd suggest complaining or contact were you bought it from. I've actually been helping another user with this exact problem the past few days.
[G2 General] talvigi:
Thanks, BUT I can't complain any where, because i live in a country far far away from the place this device was made for. So I think, You would be my master here, and by the way if it is an LS980 then why the hell it didn't take update from flashtool?

BTW do you know how do i brick the device so that i can fastboot its partitions?
[G2 General] Art Vanderlay:
You must check the mainboard. The ribbons and covers and flex cable tell you nothing. They're all interchangable.
[G2 General] talvigi:
[MENTION=5644061]Art Vanderlay[/MENTION], [MENTION=2607037]hyelton[/MENTION]: Thanks you guys,

I have checked it from the main board it is indeed an LS980, but amazingly when i tried to flash the ZVE tot file for the LS980 by LGFlashtool,

It gave me error at even 0% and said the " Download Failed!! (0 sec) Device Model is different! Check Phone or DLL! 00000000 Device model is different "

Yet when i tried to flash a tot file for D802 it installed but the screen was having vertical lines and showed nothing,

So it decided and managed to install the lollipop version for D802 .kdz file by flashtool, white lines are gone after three or four hours,

Now the device is ON, but screen is still misbehaving and phone says "service disabled" on lock screen

by now i am downloading LS980ZVA_01.zip from storagecow and i hope this will help me recover the device wia Flashtool,

OR Kindly you guys tell me what to do?

I Think i need to flash all its partitions, but i can't do it because it does let me go on fastboot mode and i don't know any other way (i don't know how to use fastboot for flashing partitions too, but i hope i will manage it because there are some helpful nodes here)
[G2 General] hyelton:
It's saying that because you need to use a hex editor to change the tot file. It reads the build.prop not the actual model of the phone.
[G2 General] Art Vanderlay:
delete
[G2 General] talvigi:

by the way you are right i have tried the best of my knowledge to the extant of LG software and could not do it well,

adb no work, fastboot, the device is not going to fastboot, LGflashtool for kdz didn't work, flashtool for tot file failed when laf partition was change ERROR

NOW What to do, i think if i short circuit the board, it will bring me to fastboot and i can flash laf.img from there

What do you say should i just flash laf.img or something else tooooooo

only download-mode

Hey, tried everything from first post, can't get my phone working:

* I have german vodafone LG G2 D802

* don't have recovery-mode (starving just after LG-logo), but Download-mode works

* downloaded latest firmware sorted out bei IMEI

* kdz with flash-tool get stuck at 3% (different ones, also kk, which was on before)

* can't find tot-file for my phone on storage-cow (think this method doesn't work for me!?)

Any hints what to do!? I already did check other threads like 2%-problem, tried different USB-ports, changed to COM41, tried different Drivers (latest was 4.0.4), ...

PS: log-file from flash-tool says:

22:52:23 : 2 - Emergency connect success
22:52:23 : Phone Mode(2)
[G2 General] hyelton:
There are a couple of D802 on my links you can use. Just download the storage size that you have 16GB/32GB.

Make sure your using USB 2.0 as USB 3.0 will not work. Along with using the cable that came with the phone.
[G2 General] jeensg:
Ok. In the Germany/Kitkat/Lollipop-folder I only find one zip-file (D80210A), which seems to be a very early one. Will still try it --> in the zip-file is only again a kdz from T-Mobile :(

The other ones alle say something about AT&T, Verizon, or others ... in the "D802 tot"-folder are only executables naming AT&T again ... I'm confused, sorry for nooby questions...

I did try different cables, including the original one that came with the phone. Also it should be USB-2 since I'm on a virtual machine on linux, where I can set up which ones to use... any more hints!?

PS: on the download-mode it says at the bottom: "B84" and in red "Rooted"
[G2 General] hyelton:
Virtual machine won't work for this. Also using a USB 3.0 based port in general won't work. As the phone is not USB 3 either. But it still wouldn't work. But virtual machine introduce all sorts of issues with this. You'll need an actual Windows install.

Also D802 tot folder that you named there are several D802 tot files there.. You extract the file there excitables which extract a tot file.
[G2 General] jeensg:
So on Windows-machine it worked. Still would like to find out whether it was the usb3 or the virtual machine that blocked it.

Even got a 5.0.2 directly (D80230f_00) -- can I upload it somewhere to make it available for others!?
[G2 General] hyelton:
Well USB 3.0 will instantly not work at all.

hi guys. I'm looking for the latest Europe Lollipop ROM for a 32 GB D802. As far as I know the version should be V30h. Anyone know where I might find a KDZ or a TOT file for this?

L.E. A bit of research has taken me to a website which hosts quite a lot of LG G2 KDZ files. However, they only have the V30H firmware for the 16GB version of the phone. Guess I'll need to go for the V30f one. Still need some help with the questions below.

Also - some files in the OPs database don't have 16GB or 32 GB in the file name. Do these work on both variants? Is there anything I need to look out for other than the phone model number (D802 in my case) and memory capacity (16 vs 32 GB ROMs)? I don't mind if I need to install a ROM from a different region as long as it doesn't screw up anything.
[G2 General] hyelton:
What's the error? That would be helpful ;p. Also your in download mode and using the cable that came with your phone correct?
[G2 General] hyelton:
In Windows you you need to unhide your com ports. And your in download mode and using a USB 2.0 port correct?
[G2 General] hyelton:
As long as your stick to the same model and size there's not problem. Remember as stated in the OP, if the file is 16Gb its 16GB. If there's no info stating the size it's 32GB :)
[G2 General] thepilot234:
Yes i am in download mode and i am using the original cable. It dosen't specify any error, when it gets to 4% it stays there for a few seconds then it just says that an error has occured and i should restart my pone and try again
[G2 General] Lecso11:
How can I unhide the com ports? I'm in download mode, but I have this problem: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3298692

[G2 General] hyelton:
Yeah thats what I was asking for, 4% can mean different things.

And you checked to make sure it shows up in communication ports in device manager? Next step is to try the TOT method.
[G2 General] thepilot234:
It does show up in comunication ports, but it show up as a usb device
[G2 General] hyelton:

I underlined the things that show up when i plug the phone in
[G2 General] hyelton:
Does USB serial device show up only when the phone is plugged in? I've never ever seen that before. Change it to com41 and try the tot method.
[G2 General] thepilot234:
Yeah, only when i plug it in, there is not tot file for my model thoug (D802 international 32gb)
[G2 General] hyelton:
There's a tot in the OP in the D802 tot folder.

Which one is the correct one?

Which ever storage size you have. Either 16GB or 32GB which is in the file name

Thanks for the info. After a long struggle with getting my phone into Download Mode I managed to install the latest UK ROM (V30f) with LG Flash Tools.

Now - as I was saying, I had some problems with getting my phone in Download Mode. The normal procedure of turning the phone off than pressing and holding volume UP and connecting the USB cable booted up the phone (into Android) rather than putting it in Download Mode. I was on Stock Android 5.0.1 and, as far as I know, the phone was never rooted or customised in any way. Received all updates OTA so far. After reading a few topics where similar problems were discussed, I ended up Rooting the phone (using one click root, available on the Forum) and installing TWRP . This seems to have fixed download mode for some weird reason and I was able to flash the KDZ using LG Flash Tools.

If anyone has problems with Download mode, I would recommend following the procedure above.
[G2 General] hyelton:
That link above you posted is not allowed here, I think it's stated at the bottom of the OP as well. The links in the OP pretty much have all the required files. I'll add 30f to my server if it is not already there.

I'd suggest removed the link, redirect links are not allowed as well as that site makes money off someone else's bandwidth.

If you have problems getting into download mode the phone needs to be completely off holding vol up or vol down along with plugging in USB should work fine in most cases. As long as the USB cable is plugged into a USB 2.0 port on a computer.

Glad you got everything resolved :)
