Problems again, I'm having trouble getting this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 guide to work for me at all. What exactly the "flash your .kdz as you normally would" means? Followed the instructions up to the point of it launching the LG update tool, but it doesn't seem to see my phone even if I'm in download mode.

This one though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_UjJiIzgMI got LG mobile support tool running and trying to flash, but it just runs into "the phone is disconnected from PC." error, so apparently it doesn't see it even though it's in download mode. Installed the latest lg usb drivers, but no detection in the update tool...do I have a brick after all, or missing something here?
[G2 General] rodpgfx:
Aren't you just trying to get back to complete stock?

You don't have to use the offline method. Download lg support tool from the LG site and install it.

First of all, make sure you have the drivers installed for your phone, also on the LG site.

Run support tool and wait for everything to load up. Top left corner should say waiting for device.

Power phone down and put it into download mode. Then the program should go from waiting for device - connecting.

After that, it's straight forward.

Let me know how you make out

People.......have you heard of google??????

Developers/moderators have more important things to do than to search (the same way you would) for files.

Put a little efford into guys, please.
[G2 General] tursoke:
LG tool doesn't seem to see the phone, I wonder if it just is freezing immediately when the download mode icon appears on the phone.

Seems there can be some detection problems in windows 8, I'll continue the project tomorrow by installing win7 on a virtual box and trying the lg tool again.

I had my G2 having these problems, and with the help of a friend we got everything pushed to where we can get into TWRP. The problem is the screen is really weird (like pressing one play does it else where but with no pattern to it to adjust to). Eventually we got into downloads enough to Install a .zip I had for Cyanogen I got a while back. But whenever I start the phone it only goes into TWRP again. I'm not sure what to do at this point.
[G2 General] jacogswll:
First off, thanks for creating this fix.

Thought I'd share my issues so far:

Running Ubuntu 32-bit via virtual box on a Mac host. I don't think the host/guest can detect my verizon g2 (VS980). When I type ls /dev/sd* I get:

and nothing else.

Then I tried gdisk -l /dev/sdb and I get:

I tried replacing sdb with sda and sdc to no avail.

Let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks again.

Someone tried disabling the g2 modem device i think. If you search "stuck at 49%" you will find few threads about it. Can't search right now.
[G2 General] tursoke:
Okay, I guess I'm perma bricked after all, then? Can get into download mode, but LG tool doesn't see the phone on three separate computers, two of them win8.1U1, one windows 7. Is there a way for the warranty services to see that the phone was rooted? Can they see it with JTAG? The boot image shows no extra text, just the LG logo, and download mode icon just shows the download mode icon.
[G2 General] Wazz18:
Don't quote me on this, I'm not 100% sure, but I've heard LG doesn't care that much, just say the update trashed it and send it in, but I do know if you tell Verizon your warranty will be voided. I'm currently in the process of unbricking mine (or at this point getting it out of TWRP). But I am on the verge of sending it to LG. Good Luck!

Just a question regarding ubuntu.

Do you use installed version of ubuntu or you are using virtual machine?

If you use virtual machine open your virtual machine in full screen then plug your phone. It should detect partitions.

I've made the whole process using VMware client.

I've installed qhsusb_dload drivers in windows. When i open vmware ubuntu it detects my phone as it is detected in windows.

Try what i've said and give your feedback.

Close to fix

Hey all,

I am having the same issues on my VS980 model LG G2. I am not sure if it is 10B or 11A, this is one of the issues I am still troubleshooting.

I just have one question. When you copy the openrecovery file into sdb15, it tells me it is a directory and does not copy anything. Thus, all I copied in was the recovery.img file. When I boot, I keep getting the secure boot error and nothing has changed. Do you need to copy all the contents of that file?
[G2 General] datechnerd:
From the sounds of it you didn't put the file after the directory /your-directory/recovery.img
[G2 General] Wasupman2:
Hello. I accidentally pushed the D802 images when my phone was D800. So my phone goes to fastboot mode right away. I've tried the factory reset with the power button and volume down, but as soon as it starts the procedure it goes into fastboot mode. When I try to enter download mode, it will show the progress to enter download mode and immediately go into fastboot mode.

Any ideas on where I should go from here?
[G2 General] Fuzedmind732:
I don't quite understand your wording. When I typed the command as shown in the OP, Ubuntu returned with "File is a directory" and showed nothing copied. What I'm asking is, do you also need to copy the META-INF and tmp file (which contains loki) that is in the openrecovery folder?

Also, should I use version 2.6.3.2 of recovery? I'm using 2.6.3.3 and was wondering if there was a bug that is causing this issue. If I wanted to swap this older version with the version I already copied in, must I delete the version in /dev/sdb15 first?
[G2 General] MadmanRon:
Many Thanks

Just wanted to say thanks for this fix. I had a rooted VS980 running the 12B ROM rooted with TWRP and in the state described at the beginning of this thread. Using an old laptop with a linux I connected and copied the suggested files (downloaded from the link on page 3, #24). I copied TWRP to recovery and rebooted. All I could get was fastboot mode at that point. After poking around the net for more info I fastboot flashed the recovery file from the 12B ROM to the phone and rebooted. The OTA installed and the phone is now fine.

The only thing I seem to have lost were some text messages. I can live with that.

I don't know what else I can do. I have restarted the phone and nothing helps. At first the phone would only boot to the LG logo unless I tried to boot it into recovery mode where it would give me an error and just show a black screen. After this process it only boots to the black screen and nothing else. I have tried download mode and recovery mode but it still just shows the black screen.

I'm using the Verizon LG G2 (VS980?)

I've read through this whole thread, but I'm still completely stuck. My phone is stuck at the LG Logo with the small message in the top left before the screen turns black. I can't get it to download mode and when I do the hard reset it stays at the black screen again.

When I plug the phone into my computer I get the QHSUSB__BULK device, but I can't find the mysterious Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9006 driver; is that driver even necessary if the device shows the qhsusb_bulk?

I set up Ubuntu 14.04 in Virtualbox and applied a filter for the phone so it connects to the VM, but I can't tell if it's connected aside from it being active in the VM settings and not connecting right away to Windows. The ls /dev/sd* command doesn't show any sdb devices.

If anyone could help me get started I should be able to get through the rest. Are the other options viable? I saw LG Flash Tool was an option but now how to use it exactly; is there an easy guide to follow for that?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for adding to this large enough of a messy thread but I read through it all and am still stumped.

Thank you! I had another version of those drivers downloaded but they weren't installing. I just looked again and found them at this other thread here for another phone and now it's showing up as the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9006 like I think it should be.

Well, I get all those partitions when I plug into Windows. I turned off automount in Ubuntu, maybe I need to turn that back on since I have the drivers now? I will keep messing around as I have time today and report back.

Edit:

I've got the drivers installed, but still get a yellow triangle warning in Device Manager in Windows even with Driver Signature Enforcement disabled. In Ubuntu, the phone is connecting to the VM because it doesn't appear in Windows anymore, but it does show up under devices or when using the ls /dev/sd* command. I turned automount back on and still don't get anything.

My phone has now stuck on boot screen after pushing img files to LG G2. I doubt that I have pushed a wrong version number (I used 10b but I guess my device is 20a, where cannot find on the download site).

Now that there is no response after I plugged into my computer (Win/Mac/Ubuntu), so I can’t perform things like KDZ flashing or pushing a new, correct img in Ubuntu. My phone is now

Halt on LG boot screen

Not recognise by ADB (error: device not found) or Device Manager (no qhsusb_bulk)

Can enter Factory Reset screen, but no response if I press perform hard resetting

Cannot enter recovery mode nor download mode

Secure booting error message dismissed

Can anyone suggest a fix to my phone? It’s fine if it needs to erase all user data.
