Ugh, you had to have a CDMA didn't you? Lol not that bad. I know it is all slightly different, I'd try and find a .DLL and .tot file specifically for Sprint and use those instead of mine. Other than that I don't think so. That's what's going to give you the firmware to connect to your carrier I believe.
[G2 General] hyelton:
that method is the same for Sprint its the tot method in general. but I would like that add that method is the SAME exact method as the OP just it installs everything in one download, that's the only difference.
[G2 General] hyelton:
Sprint DLL and tot are in the OP....
[G2 General] cookierobots:
I already have the .DLL and the .tot files on my computer, so when it comes time for them to be implemented into the whole scheme of things I should be good to go. I'm glad you were able to show me that thread because my biggest fear is that I'm messing up a step somewhere or doing something wrong. No joke, it took me almost an hour to realize that I had to right click and select "Run as Administrator" before I could change the hosts file. I blame Apple, as I've been stuck on an iPhone for the past two years and none of this was required. Lol
[G2 General] cookierobots:
I have an issue and was wondering if you could help me. I'm at Step #3 and my phone isn't showing up as the "LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM4)" and is instead an Unrecognized Device. Is there a workaround to this and if so how do I fix it?
[G2 General] hyelton:
make sure drivers are installed? so its saying its an unrgonised device under device manager?
[G2 General] cookierobots:
I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them, thinking maybe that was the issue, except now it's coming up as "LGE AndroidNet for VZW ADB Interface" and I have no idea why. I have a Sprint LSG980 but I have no clue how to get the device manager to recognize it as such.
[G2 General] hyelton:
what drivers did you download? there's 2 different drivers in the OP. one for everything else And another for Verizon. also under com ports do you have that?
[G2 General] cookierobots:
I installed the LG Drivers. The icon for Device Manager looked like it was loading something all of a sudden and now I can't see my device in the list at all. I don't have a com port section in the manager either.
[G2 General] hyelton:
have you tried a PC restart?
[G2 General] cookierobots:
I just did that and I've plugged the usb into all available ports at one point or another and still nothing is working.

Thank you! Saved my new D802 phone!!

Thank you very much, got my G2 back!

Some tips for people with soft bricked phone. I got my G2 two days ago. Knowing I will probably mess it up somehow, I decided to make a backup. I installed TWRP, made a backup, clicked on "REBOOT" and that was it. My G2 never restarted. All I saw was the LG logo and then the screen went dark and the notification light blinked blue\green light. I wasted a whole day trying to get it back using different methods (including methods 1-3 on this forum), nothing worked.

Yesterday night I tried the TOT method and, walla! , it worked!!!

I actually ignored\skipped this method few times because I saw AT&T\ VERIZON etc... And I have the D802 32GB INTERNATIONAL version.

I'm on WIN8 64 and that's the only method that worked for me. Try it!

OTA updates did not work after installing the 4.2.2 TOT file, but connecting the phone to LG tool (support tool) worked and it updated my phone to 4.4.2 KK.

I hope it helps.

Thank you again!

All of a sudden my computer suddenly recognized my phone as an Android device but only in recovery. I downloaded adb and was able to change the device to Android ADB Interface so that I could possibly try to sideload a new rom onto it but I'm still not really sure where to go from here. I haven't used adb in years and even back then my brother was the brains who helped me with everything. Anyone know where I should go from here?
[G2 General] cookierobots:
Well I was finally able to sideload a rom to my phone through adb and now the only issue I'm having is trying to return it to a stock rom. If there is a rom out there that is as close to stock as you can get that has working sms I would appreciate a heads up because at this point I haven't been able to get any 3 of these methods to work for me. Mostly it's due to the fact that my phone doesn't seem to be recognized during download mode and I therefore haven't been able to change the port to COM41. Any help would be appreciated since I don't want to install apps or put on information if I'm going to just end up wiping it later anyways.

I'm having trouble with flashing...

I used this method before and it all went well, but now...

I'm on 4.2.2 rooted with TWRP installed

as i tough everyone is ignoring my problem, i'm really the only one in this world with a G2 D-801 that can't install a recovery ?
[G2 General] galr:
Happened to me too

Happened to me too, don't worry. Use the TOT method to install 4.2.2 again, then update to KK using LG tool. Good luck.
[G2 General] hyelton:
ATTENTION !!! :

Anyone that is having issues with flashing on the KDZ method, MAKE SURE you disable ANY Firewall / Antivirus before extracting the KDZ flashing method files, I went to flash a G Pro back to stock earlier and noticed it was having the issues a lot of you have (I have flashed using this method 50 times on over several different model) I checked, My Antivirus had REMOVED several files as false positive, I disabled my Antivirus Re downloaded & Re extracted the files and the flashing method went along and worked as it should.​

Not sure what you mean? This guide is for restoring the Stock Firmware and returning back to stock
[G2 General] MichaelVeringo:
I've tried restarting my PC and tried different computers, one running XP, and one running 7. My phone is D800 with TWRP 2.7.0.0 running Paranoid Android 4.4.3. This is the only thing my phone does in download mode. Just sits there on this screen.

Sent from my LG-D800
[G2 General] poudigne:
Totaly replyed on the wrong thread sorry. But still, i want to go to stock 4.2.2 for rooting. And the LG Support Tools keeps saying my devices is not connected. I have tried with win 8.1 and win 7. Do you have any idea. (ho yes i have installed L USB driver and rebooted)
[G2 General] hellhug:
TYVM hyelton for links and this hread!

And to sanke1 and his post #2973 with pictures for even easier guidance!

Succesful reverert to stock on d802 iernational model. U may add - enter download mode to your steps. Anyway big + for u!:good::good::good:
[G2 General] guvno:
Already disabled

Thanks for the suggestion, this I already knew. I had the same issue a while back when my AV removed some of your files...

Anyway, my AV and firewall are all disabled but still the flashing stops at 49%

I have tried a couple of different stock .kdz files (4.2.2 and 4.4.2) but still the same problem.

I can only imagine that this is caused by TWRP as the phone still works, it does power up and I'm running stock 4.2.2 but rooted and with TWRP.

Last time I used the guide successfully I was rooted but no TWRP... Is this what is causing the issue?

Could someone confirm that this .kdz flashing method works even though TWRP is installed?

Thx

Hi,

and then it stops. I used to do this more times but i get always this error.

I tried the Method 1 and 3 too, but it doesnt work too.

Sorry for my Bad English.

Isn't the TOT method just for AT&T phones?

I can't find a TOT file for my D802 (32GB) I thought that the TOT method is only for AT&T phones, my D802 is a HongKong variant
[G2 General] galr:
I thought so too (that is only AT&T) .. That's why it took me 2 days to get my phone back. Mine is a D802 32GB too. Just go to the firmware folders, look for d802 tot. It works.
[G2 General] BackDaws:
can somone help me please ?

ive flashed back to stock but im stuck at the lg boot screen with my notification light rotating diffrent colours, ive restarted and ive booted into download mode and flashed it again but still im stuck on the same boot screen, i cant for the life of me get into stock recovery it just wont have it, ive tried holding down both power and vol down until the lg logo displays and then releasing and quickly pressing both again, the last rom i had on was cloudyflex with ART enabled so i need to reset the phone.

please please help :)
[G2 General] hyelton:
Did you read the entire OP? 99% of the time its gonna bootloop you have to factory reset
[G2 General] BackDaws:
how do i factory reset now ? the power button and vol down will not work :(
[G2 General] hyelton:
There's a link in the OP or go on YouTube and search it
[G2 General] BackDaws:
ive searched and watched youtube they show you how to press power button and vol down until lg is displayed then release power button while keeping vol down pressed then press the power button and hold it and voila the reset menu is supposed to pop up but its not working at all for me!!!!!!

hi

i have lg g2 d802, i live in middle east i don't know the right stock room to work with, i have attached my phone sticker on package to use by you to identify my phone, my reason to back to stock is the sound noise on left speaker when i use head set that come with kitkat update

pls help
[G2 General] guvno:
Thanks galr

In the end, I did something really stupid.

As I had TWRP installed, I flashed Cloudy's 2.4 ROM and KK kernel, all went well, phone worked fine, then I thought, perhaps now .kdz flashing will work, and I tried it. And it DID work... flashing the stock KK .kdz worked fine now... The phone however kept booting into the screen with the little "android with the spinning cube" and the phone never came out of this... I was panicing... Anyway, I must have tried to factory restore about 10 times and flashed using .kdz about 10 times but when I tried to flash a old JB .kdz the phone finally came back to life. And then I flashed the KK .kdz (EURO OPEN) and this went i fine as well.

So all good in the end and all is working, I have rooted but I am a bit scared to do TWRP...

Anyway, thanks
[G2 General] BackDaws:
Grrrr this is driving me mad, i can get into download mode but i cant reset the phone because the vol+ and power isnt working, wtf do i do now ? if i keep flashing is there a chance it will wake up and boot ?
[G2 General] hyelton:
flashing is just pointless and may actually mess things up worse if anything... there is never a bad flash really when it comes to LG. it will either flash or it won't so if it flashed it was successful.

remember since your in bootloop hold down power and volume up til the LG logo goes away and THEN quickly use the button combo for factory reset.
[G2 General] BackDaws:
i can power off the phone and like ive said i can enter download mode but it will not enter reset mode, is there a tool that can reset the phone from download mode ?
[G2 General] hyelton:
Nothing can be done through download mode other than flashing. can you get into recovery?
[G2 General] Shadowcat0909:
.tot Method won't work!

I have an LS980, USB debugging on, charge mode selected, and when it boots into download mode it only stays there for a short period of time, it soon changes the screen to "Firmware Update" and the text at the bottom in the box says

There's an image attached. I'm not sure if it's supposed to do this and that's what download mode is, or if it is abnormal. Regardless, when it is in this state, I continue through the steps, COM41 is the port, correct drivers installed, even rebooted. The LG Flash Tool when I click the arrow goes through the initial gray box stuff (Milky Check, Bin CRC check, etc.) and then after Bin CRC check the gray box goes away, port 1 (COM41) says READY!!, and nothing happens. The phone stays at the same Firmware Update screen for the entire process, with the progress bar always at 0%. When I unplug the phone the log is blank in LG Flash Tool. I've seen two other people post this issue, and neither received responses, so I'm trying to make this as thorough as possible in the hopes that I can get some resolution. I originally rooted it when I got it last November, and I believe that I use IORoot at the time. I don't think I installed a custom recovery, and I know that I left the stock ROM. I haven't tinkered with it since, I've been playing with my Nexus 5 (which is unbelievably easier to mess with). I can't seem to boot into recovery with the G2 either, I'm unsure if this is related. When I try turning on the phone holding the volume down and power buttons until the LG screen, I release and hold them again, and it just continues to the Sprint boot animation. I've tried at least 20 times, and I know that I'm not screwing up that badly. I'm at my wits' end! Any help is appreciated, and I'm sure the other two people in this thread with the issue would appreciate the help too!
[G2 General] BackDaws:
im doing everythnig correctly to get into recovery but it wont work,

i power off the device by pressing and holding power till it goes off, i leave it for 30secs to make sure its off.

i then press and hold vol down and power button until lg logo appears

i let go of buttons for a second and press and hold them again

on the videos it shows a white screen with reset on it but mine just carries on to the lg logo, the screen then dims slightly and the notification light goes through its colour cylce and thats it, it sits there doing that.

Can i flash TRWP from download mode ? if so how ?
[G2 General] galr:
Funny, TWRP is also the reason my phone didn't boot. Not installing that again. Glad to hear your phone is back.
[G2 General] BackDaws:
Right I've managed to get into recovery and reset the procedure is different now.

You press and hold vol down and power button and when lg logo comes on you release but now press vol up and volume down without power and the reset screen comes on.

Hope this helps some poor bastard like it did me, add that change to the front page ffs.

Problem is I cannot find C:\ProgramData on my c drive anywhere. The phone is also plugged in but the lg software doesnt detect it....

I just need to go back to stock as the phone is being returned to amazon for a refund. Also can someone confirm what firmware i should use. Its a UK D802

Thanks so much ...

big problem :(

Hello,

I have a big problem

I change many times rom into my D802. I dont know when but i see in the storage only 10.62Gb. I do a hard reset to know if I can resolve this problem. Unsuccessfully, I install different like Aparted,... to know if i can find my 32 Gb. At last I install ROM manager, then restart to recovery mode...since impossible to restart him.(D802 buy in HK)

What can i do?

Hello [MENTION=2607037]hyelton[/MENTION] and all other people here,

Have a D802 and have been on KK Baseband and Custom ROMs.

Just decided to have a clean start for KK one more time. Dont remember how I did the last time :p

Is this wiping all the data on the device

? Which means a complete backup required for all the personal files, pictures and music?

Thought of confirming from guys who have flashed the kdz method.

Thanks in anticipation

If you flashed and its in bootloop did you factory reset?
[G2 General] thenewbigmack:
Hey, wanted to double check something real quick. While this returns the phone to stock, is it possible for your carrier to know that it was previously rooted? Sometimes rooting a phone trips a flag, and requires you to "reset" that flag in order to hide the fact it was rooted. Thanks in advance!

Try updating drivers

I had the same issue, even installing the drivers it wont install them properly specially if is a 64 bit. What I did is I install the drivers normally. Once they are install go to device manager and find the LGE device with the yellow exclamation sign, right click and click update drivers, once you select update drivers select Browse my computer for my driver software, once you have click that at the bottom click " Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" then select "Show all devices and next. Click "have disk: a new window will pop and click "browse" once you click it a new window will pop. Drop down to C: Programs File (X86) - LG Electronics - LG United Mobile driver and select lgx64bus.inf if you have a 64bit computer or lgandbus.inf if you got a X86 computer. If you did everything right three more items will start looking for drivers and once they are done locating it, it should work like mine did.

QUOTE=arjunedaz;53270364]thanks for the firmware. However, I am unable to update my phone. It always throws me the attached error.[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]

ugh could you mind helping me out a bit? I did what you said and there are loads of options (google, LG, LG, LG) in the menua fter i click lgx64bus.inf in the menu selection area. i don't know which one to pick, when i pick google i get an ADB error or something

Got it, w8 doesnt like the lg drivers. Did a clean install of w7 and its working. Lgflash is working it magic.

I can confirm that for my phone (D803) this method removed the "Rooted" flag in recovery. I think you just need to factory reset after the install. Hope that helps.

hello,

i got a d802 , and i tryed to flash cm11 , and now im stuck on lg logo boot loop shows security error .

i can assess recovery and download mode.

when i'm trying to use this guide, on method 1 , nothing happens... on method 2, i'm getting a "uptestex has stop working"

and on method 3 nothing happens,,,

what can i do?
[G2 General] wm388:
delete, see below

i'm doing it but i keep getting the massage : "your device has the latest software available from the LG mobile support tool"﻿
[G2 General] wm388:
+1

very frustrating esp. since i am on 12b and there is no other way to safely get to 24A KK. somebody please help, we've all tried rebooting and reinstalling. i can see my device in adb devices fine. the stupid lg program is the one that can't recognize it, so the whole KDZ method isn't working
[G2 General] hyelton:
and your in download mode correct? since you said you can adb devices and it shows up, your not supposed to be I'm fastboot mode.
[G2 General] wm388:
should i be in download mode the entire KDZ process? i thought download mode was only for TOT method, because the guide for KDZ says select adb debugging and stuff on your phone which you can only do when the phone is fully booted

edit: thanks for very quick response, great commitment
[G2 General] hyelton:
My guide says nothing to do with turning on USB/adb debugging :o . You can't flash a firmware without being in Download Mode kdz or tot.
[G2 General] wm388:
i still have the "the phone is disconnected from the PC" problem as before when the phone is in download mode. it seems like me and others have a problem in device manager where CDC Serial, LGE Android Phone, and CDC ECM are all yellow exclamation mark. i'm on vs980 and i tried both the verizon only drivers and the universal LG drivers and either way the drivers aren't working somehow. i tried the method mentioned by grouchystitch:

but it still doesn't work
[G2 General] havlaz:
here is what i'm getting...
[G2 General] hyelton:
if you have the yellow mark in device manager for the phone no point in trying to flash as it won't work. you did restart AFTER installing drivers correct? also different USB ports? different usb cable? also try searching Windows update for drivers?
[G2 General] hyelton:
copy all files to the correct directory? and running the flashtool from the OP?
[G2 General] wm388:
yup to all of the above. reinstalled like 3 times, including trying both universal LG and VZW LG (not installed at the same time, ofc) drivers. windows update always says red x and "could not find driver" or something, tried all ports. AND different computers

i think i'm just doomed. is there another way to upgrade from 12b rooted to 24a stock ?
[G2 General] hyelton:
only methods for "stock" is the ones in the OP.

I really have no clue why it doesn't work for some. Ive never ran into any issues besides quick issues relating to Windows
[G2 General] wm388:
i certainly don't blame you, thank you for the great guide and all the amazing help/quick response. i'm just gonna keep shooting, at least i'm not bricked or stuck anywhere and i can still boot into 12b rooted fine. :good:
