[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] assa51:
There is a topic about linux solution which i done before (2 times)

You can use any linux version but i prefer slax linux. It can works in usb without any installation and less than 300mb (install in usb change boot device from your competer before start)

After that you can follow that topic.

But the important thing is it wouldnt recognize your device also. Just follow this steps.

1-Be sure that phone is completly off and not connected to linux pc

2-press hold power+volume down buttons together

3-when you see splash logo relaase them for a second and press both again untill see factory reset screen

4-just press 3 or 4 times to factory reset

5-during factory reset it will crash (doest work) and appear blank black screen. (This is the most critical step)

6-dont press anything and plug usb connector cable to linux pc (ta taa in console you are able to list phone partitions ;))

7- follow the that topic instruction one by one. End of work you will access to twrp recovery and follow the shell command which has given a link end of the that topic

Good luck and be in patience

OMG.. in these states you photographed it your 5th post there is no connection launched.. neither adb nor download mode I suppose..

When I was in reset screen it did it after 3 times pushing power button.

Apparently you got neither a kernel nor a recovery remaining on your device.

You must get it at least booting to download mode to be able to flash an original rom. Unfortunately we got no fastboot on this device :crying:

resume..

it is told that download mode only can be entered when device is connected via usb. Mine enters it no matter if connected or not.. anyway. Okay, use the USB Slot at the back of your machine.. front slots are often not usb 2.0 or even less.

The Linux machine should at least list the partitions when doing

fdisk -l

it's a small L

if you got that there's little chance ..or if you got DL mode booting through ..

I'm also having the same issue/problem now. Always STUCK/FREEZE at: lg logo/splash, recovery mode, factory hard reset and download mode. Doesn't matter what mode the g2 is in, all my computers won't recognize the LG G2.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO ENTER IN FASTBOOT on the lg g2.

I have the LS980 (Sprint LG G2).

I bought the phone from a friend in sprint stock.

Flashed it here and there... Sometimes i got it soft bricked fixed it using fastboot method/download mode.

Then I wanted to unlock the gsm since its a sprint phone so that I can use it with t-mobile or metro pcs, so I found a thread here where it says you can use T-Mobile D801 LG G2 CM11 rom and flash it to the Sprint LG G2 LS980.... so I did that. Then I ended up soft bricking my sprint ls980 g2 again. So I used fastboot commands and flashed the ls980 with it's ZV8 stock aboot.img file & modem.img file... did a reboot... now my LS980 G2 is a useless paper weight.

Not a single computer can recognize my ls980 g2. Its like the g2 completely shut off it's usb communication.

Now I'm planing to send it to LG, riff jtag box or just buy a nexus 5.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fizzy177:
See what your problem is that you messed up with your Bootloader

here is what is happening to you device

uefi device check-ok

HW bootloader check - ok

SW bootloader check -ok(if this is ok then qhsusb_bulk is not in device manager)

booting aboot.bin - error after loading (If erroe was before loading then qhsusb_bulk would be shown in device manager) version mismatch

Now For download mode The version of aboot.img should match the version of

1- sbl1.img (Most imp. culprit)

2- aboot.img

3- rpm.img

4- tz.img

Now as you forget to flash these thing as well there is no way to go back to download mode.

This is the only way that i've come across in which one can really hard brick his phone ;)

To unbrick it you have 3 choices :

1-Interupt the HW bootloader using volume keys combination (As i don't want to go to this stage i can't confirm it) after doing this qhsusb_bulk will be shown in device manager

2-Jtag (Medusa box supports it Flex cable Z31 Support LG G2 D802 D800 D801 F300L/S/K F320L/S/K )

3-Go to service centre (Probably the best choice).

According to me , you'd have tried using the first methood many a times . So, should go to lg service centre. Most probably they'll replace the motherboard for free inside the warranty unless u told them the whole story.

I also had an encounter at the lg service centre at Delhi(India) . As i talked with the executive over there he told me that LG also recycles its PCB(motherboard) So, if u r lucky u may get it from 1500-5000 Rs(30$-90$ approx). It is better than JTAG coz there is a chance that it'll burn ur PC and take exorbit amount just for repairing as well (Around 3000Rs for repairing).

Hope this helps you understanding your situation. :angel:
