What are the commands to do this on ADB using Windows, not Ubuntu. Thanks!

---------- Post added at 09:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 PM ----------

So, I was having similar issue. Only I deleted the carrier iq files in system/lib and my android system crashed. I was able to boot to recovery, but was useless since i deleted the system file, actually renamed it to .bak. So

the real issue was it wouldnt boot to Download mode

. It took me LONG minutes to click ok while trying to activate usb debugging lmao. Here's my solution that may help some of you:

My device:D800 AT&T LG G2

-Used ADB and booted it to flashboot, using adb reboot fastboot I know, its weird but trust me using adb reboot download would not work

-Stayed on fastboot screen and held the power button to activate the built in shut down (around 8 seconds) while holding the Volume Up button

-Voila! it suddenly went to Download mode

-I then used the flash tool to flash the stock firmware/rom and all is well, for now haha.

-I'm currently updating the software since what i flashed was 4.2.2 so i think the 750mb OTA update is the Kitkat, hopefully that would fix my KNOCK cuz it wouldnt turn the screen when I knocked it, so had to use the power button to turn screen on.

-If you need assistance, just pm me, I may be able to help you if you have a similar problem
[G2 General] resinis:
god this sucks

i just got a g2 att d800

it worked great, so of course i had to try to mess with it by putting custom roms on it.

i first flashed back to 4.2 using tot file

then in my infinite wisdom i decided to let the OTA update try to take me back to 4.4.2

Been bricked ever since. Tried everything. Stuck in blank screen after secure boot fail. like 15 partitions open up, and i have the HS-USB Diagnostics driver loaded ok, tried setting to com41, and it gives me a model invalid error in lgflashtool

even tried manually flashing each partition img, which seems to work, in a SLAX enviroment. but it doesnt change anything.

i never had this much trouble flashing HTC phones... stupid lg...
[G2 General] bender_007:
What exactly was the issue when you took the ota?
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
I'm in the exact same boat except mine does not always show up on any computer and it sometimes it shows as about 8/10 drives or as unrecognized.

It sometimes will show and not show constantly.

BTW: I bought it like this...

---------- Post added at 08:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:17 AM ----------

This looks like all went well?

I had to get the recovery location correct so it shows where I missed the location a couple of time but it did pushed correctly when I got it right. I had to add the "img" or it could not find it.

Anyone see anything wrong here? because my s**t still does not work...
[G2 General] bender_007:
Flash partitions for your variant. Nor for any other variant :/
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
Where would I get the correct variants?

I though these were universal?

1- sbl1.img

2- aboot.img

3- rpm.img

4- tz.img

I don't know if this device is on V10 or V20?

I'm looking for 10b at&t 16g partitions (I don't know if it's a 16Gb or a 32Gb)

EDIT:

I found them (D800)

http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/D800/Stock_Firmware/10d_partitions

I pushed all the correct version files and still the same thing, I bought another one of these G2's for parts so I can rob the logic board but I would like to still try to fix this one while waiting for the replacement to arrive...

Need Help

After installing TWRP using AutoRec my D802 get into "Fastboot enabled mode"(No recovery and No Download mode) but after attempting this method i'm able to remove that fastboot mode but got stuck at LG Logo,though i can now able to enter download mode.

But the bad thing is, now it's not showing in connected devices(or port) so i can't flash KDZ file using LG Flash Tool.

Any help?

I have left only this option.

[G2 General] resinis:
I went to 4.2 so i could root it

Then i realized there wasnt a whole lot of custom dev happening for this phone (i should have studied more before i messed with it), so i just wanted it back to the way it was. The phone said there was an ATT update available and I didnt think twice, i just let it fly.

So now that big mistake is over, its been nothing since. I cant even see the partition tables in linux, but when i connect to a windows pc or ubuntu i do get like 16 partitions open up. Its stuck in QHSUSB driver in windows. If I install the driver and then try the LG Flash tool, i get this

[IMG="brick"]http://i.imgur.com/q37we7M.png[/IMG]
[G2 General] Tech_Savvy:
which one do i use for lg g2 D800 32gb? "10o_partitions" or "10d_partitions"
[G2 General] resinis:
i think the 0 partitions are for jellybean and d are for kitkat

i could be wrong though.

i just found out this stupid bricked no-way-from-hell phone i have is only 6 month old according to the person i bought it from. ring ring, LG, you have a warranty ticket about to happen! maybe in the future you can design your OTA updates to not self destruct your phones!
[G2 General] Tech_Savvy:
well i bought a bricked on for 65 and figured id use my wits to try and get it back and working...but if they're still under warrenty I'm just gonna follow your lead ;) btw thanks for the response...came over from the nexus 4 forum just a week ago...people here aren't as active!! again thank you...
[G2 General] resinis:
you wouldnt have this problem with a nexus phone

or with any HTC phone that i know of. I never had a bricked HTC that i couldnt save.

The only two phones that i bricked and could never recover were LG phones.

No more LG for me, thats for sure. Likely going to go with an S4 now.
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
This is the only phone I haven't been able to save myself either, I even sent it off to be repaired and they could not fix it without replacing parts...

It really does not have bad parts, it just needs reprogramming and I would think JTAG could fix it because it appears that the boot record is corrupt?

I really like this product because it has no buttons on the side which I seem to always hit when holding one of these phones...
[G2 General] resinis:
its a CHEAP phone with a really good screen and late model components inside. but it is a cheaply built phone. I dont like the power button on the back either.

I just hope LG doesnt tell me i have to pay for replacement parts. rediculous they couldnt fix your phone without putting a new motherboard in it... you would think they would design them in a way that could always be recovered- like a pc computer.... worse yet how the hell do they allow OTA updates that can render the phone so useless it wont even boot? i would bet they see these in the repair factory all the time...
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
OTA updates are not usually a problem if your phone is stock but you know they know we hack these phones and would build an appropriate update to circumvent this issue. I don't like Apple but if you update one of their products it removes all your hacks but it does not destroy your device.

I sold my first G2 to a friend who twice took an OTA update, when I fixed it for him the second time I removed all the custom additions including recovery so he could not do this again.

Maybe you can fix your device with this method if you haven't diddled with it to much, but you must copy the text exactly using Minimal ADB fast boot program. http://minimal-adb-and-fastboot.software.informer.com/

Also if you have TWRP installed can get into it, this may save you also:

What worked for me was from the TWRP terminal command was to type

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota

Then hit enter.

Then type:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc

then hit enter and reboot.
[G2 General] resinis:
Thanks. If I had fastboot access I would be good to go a long time ago.

I only have QDLoader bulk mode. And even with that, I cannot see my partition tables. I CAN write to the partitions, but I cant see what they are so I have no idea where to copy the img files. I have tried so many combinations I am sure its completely hosed now.

edit- looks like i screwed up enough last night that i dont even have QDloader mode anymore. It connects as a completely unknown device! No hardware ID either, i have never seen that. what a piece of ****. well i guess LG wont find the reason it went bad now lol... i still blame this on ATT's OTA updates! they should never be that invasive!
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
I was in the same boat with windows and Ubuntu, however in Slax I can see the partitions and push to the appropriate number partition.

Slax is so much better and intuitive plus it worked as far as rewriting those partition listed in the OP.

In my case the phone is still fubar!

I will continue to try to try to fix it until the replacement G2 gets here and I can rob the logic board out of it...
[G2 General] resinis:
I was using SLAX

Also tried fedora

both did the same thing. I could write partitions, erase them and whatever... but when i tried listing the present table it would show no response.

I really just want to throw this thing at a brick wall as hard as i can, but i fear LG wouldn't process the warranty claim at that point

Hello. I have LGG2 D802 hard bricked, no download/recovery mode.

My mistake in step

So even if the volume through - and get the power button to start the recovery, so if I via power buton start hard reset, will not start anything. But the main problem is that when I connect my USB cable, so automatically (without any additional action) LG logo is displayed and the system does not detect any connected device. I tried to run the phone with volume + or -, but always appears only logo.

Any idea? Thank you for help

[G2 General] Gabriel51:
I assume your using a program like Slax because you had to add the ".img" to make it push, do you actually have the international model D802?

You must be able to connect (at some point) or you could not push these files to the partitions?

1. Download Hex Editor

2. load tot file of your model

3. Press Ctrl+F and select Text String from first combo and in 2 combo type D802

4. Replace D802 to VS980

5. Save tot file As D802

6. Flash this tot Once then your phone's Model number will be changed and then you can easily flash your model D802 with Orignal D802 tot file ..

[G2 General] The Grand Pooh-Bah:
Problems in Step 1

I'm having issues in the first step of this solution

Here is what I got back from the terminal
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
See if the numbers you are getting are the same with or without the phone plugged in, if so the computer is not seeing your device.

You will get a string on numbers/letters either way but you should see more with the device plugged in...
[G2 General] The Grand Pooh-Bah:
That seem to be the problem because it showed the exact same sd results with the phone unpluged.

I have the windows drivers installed and working.....are there different linux drivers I need?

Also the phone shows up in devices and I can see the internal storage of the phone.
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
You can't get into download mode or recovery, right?

If you can see your phone in windows you should be able to adb the device and push the files needed to fix it.

No linux drivers needed (as far as I remember). Use Slax instead of ubuntu or any other unix or linux op, it's easier to get around in. I posted a link a few pages back (or google it)
[G2 General] The Grand Pooh-Bah:
Correct I can't get into Download or Recovery Mode.

I can see the phone in windows and linux Mint and ADB is working in Windows. I found the link you mentioned and downloaded the ADB program. http://minimal-adb-and-fastboot.software.informer.com/

Not quite sure how or what to do from here. Do you have a link to directions using "Minimal ADB" to get back to an operational Download & Recovery Modes?
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
OK, Install minimal ADB fastboot, open it

Type adb devices

Your device should show up under that after daemon starts

Copy and paste the below:

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota of=/sdcard/fota-backup.img

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota

Hit enter

I have fixed two of them with this that exhibited your phones condition, good luck...
[G2 General] The Grand Pooh-Bah:
Yes my device showed.

Pasted the code and ran it. Got this

"dd' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
What did your phone show up as? exactly
[G2 General] The Grand Pooh-Bah:
showed up as

09d44a3d6496901 device

If I unplug the phone nothing shows up
[G2 General] Gabriel51:
start over, after your device is reconized

type "adb shell" then hit enter

Now paste the code again

edit;

It should look like this (without the blacked out area where i made a mistake with the coding)
[G2 General] The Grand Pooh-Bah:
Now I get

cannot open for read: Permission denied

cannot open for write: Permission denied

Hey guys,

Ive been looking through this thread trying to find out what i need to do with my Tmobile D801, I just got a replacement phone (touchscreen gave out on last one) and i rooted it, but when i tried to install a custom recovery i was greeted with the Secure Boot error when trying to enter recovery, though It looks like download mode still works fine.

I would just use the LG Flash tool to try and start over but it always freezes at 28% for me so that won't work.

I can't find any files specific to my model, are the D802 files linked in the original post ok to use? I just want to make sure before i start pushing anything.

Thanks

I had a Claro D801/803 which I bricked and then hard-bricked because of incorrect fastboot flash. I had someone use BoardDiag to get it back to QH USB 9006. I have been trying to dd the right firmwares, but somehow my phone is not even powering up. I'm fairly expert at Linux, so I'm pretty sure I'm doing the right dd.

In certain situations - like I disconnect the battery and then reconnect the USB cable when I'm holding vol+, the backlight comes on but the system does not power up ... not even an LG logo. However if I keep the power button pressed for 20 seconds WITH THE USB CABLE CONNECTED, I get a red light blinking .. this vanishes as soon as the usb cable is disconnected.

can someone help.. what is happening ?

OTA updates are death for these devices if they are rooted and/or have a custom recovery.

Do not take OTA system updates unless your LG device is completely stock....
