I bought it broken for around $300 and got it fixed for free, I don't know how your "moral to the problem" applies to my situation whatsoever
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidmuer:
I have a similar hard brick.

No response at all from the phone.

Same usb driver detection.

I set the driver in device manager to port 41.

I was able to start the flasher and get it to ready mode.

Plug the phone in, and it would communicate, then stop at 8 seconds due to cross flash issues.

It detects the phone as nothing, and the TOT file is a D851 so it says cross flash and errors out.

So I went a bit further and used a g2 DLL that skips some checks and I still had this problem.

So I went even further and used a HEX editor to edit the TOT file and make it look for a no name phone. (deleted the D851 sig it looks for)

and it started up. This time, at 8 seconds, it starts to flash. (yay!). However, when it reaches 6% (13 seconds in), it errors out.

it says:

change to DL Mode

then...

MasterBinBoardDLProcess() Error

I'm sure it is trying to inject the files onto the phone. However, due to the hard brick, and my limited knowledge, I dunno how to go further, other than to send it back to LG since no JTAG exists on our end yet.

I also manually set the driver to LG android USB port driver. I was able to set it to port 41 as well. However, the flasher just stays in ready, and does not want to talk to my phone like this.

I got a bit further with the KDZ flasher with this driver though, where as the QSUB one that it auto detects got nowhere with the KDZ flasher.

All this is under a Windows 8 machine.

Maybe I will have one last hoorah at it tomorrow on my buddies Vista machine, since it says the KDZ flasher is very unpredictable, and works best on Vista.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sooti:
This is one of 2 reasons manufactures lock bootloaders, since people flash things they shouldn't or don't know how to flash and end up flashing a bad bootloader or such and then LG have to pay out of pocket to either JTAG + shipping or replace the Board.

Although I admit that the risk is pretty small, unless you try to flash a d802 rom on a d851 for example, its pretty hard, I've never hard bricked a phone in my life.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidmuer:
ya...

see...

that's not what happened.

All I had was STOCK with root.

Worst part is, all I wanted was to unroot to get OTA's since it was pretty useless to me for now since lg g3 development is quite slow.

I went into Team Win recovery.

Went to install off external SD card.

Realized that I had no Sdcard in there.

popped the battery out, and put the Sdcard in.

Went to turn it back on....

Oh... there is no back on.

I am here....

Been fine since Mid July until now.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f2bacon:
Try everything man. And good luck to you. It turns out LG didn't even jtag mine, they "replaced the main board". Worst case scenario you could call up LG, tell them the truth, and see how they handle it. Good luck man!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidmuer:
Ya, I'm going to try a Vista PC later today.

However, I already emailed LG and basically told them phone is unresponsive.

It's not the wait that bothers me.

It's that I am in Canada.

So I have to cross boarder (not too far... 45min), ship it, then go back to pick it up. So, a little hassle.

But that's what seems will be happening.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f2bacon:
I mean I guess that's just a bit better than shipping from canada, but you should put your return address as canada, cause maybe they'd ship it back to you. But all in all, good luck to you

Hi, sorry for the late reply.

Hardware IDs

VID_05C&PID_9008&REV_0000

Detected as a Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM41)

I set the com to 41 for obvious reasons....

phone has ZERO response other than windows detecting it in that mode and auto installing that driver...

No light, no LG boot screen. Like a dead (hard) brick.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kryptonite:
[MENTION=4249715]sidmuer[/MENTION] , that doesn't look good. Getting out of the QDloader 9008 mode has proved to be a nightmare so far with no success stories at least with the LG G2.

Try to get a warranty replacement if possible. Else if that's not a choice , try the below . The below doesn't work on G2 in QDloader 9008 mode, but lets see if that changes on the G3.

Please stop posting this b*llsh*t so called "QHD" wallpapers. There's an obvious difference between an original resolution and an up-sampled resolution.

Those wallpapers were probably originally about 600x800 px and then upsampled to 1440x2560, and guess what? They look like sh*t.

Don't believe me? Take a look for yourself:

[Moto 360] phermey:
i canecelled the order. i decided to order some leather and do it myself. so i can have a few bands of varying colors.
[Moto 360] chivamex10:
Hey guys I went into best buy and surprisingly they had some leather bands so I grabbed two. I was not a fan of the grey one that came with the Moto. Now there will need to be some modification done cos the moto has that gap in the middle (I'm guessing to force us to buy the bands only from Motorola) I used my knife to cut a gap in mine and it snapped into place.

They ran $20 a pop. Much better now with the black leather.
[Moto 360] kpjimmy:
I personally don't think it is the only reason, I think it also has to do with the possibility of cracking the back with stiffer bands, like the pebble band. The notch stops the band from bending over the curved ends of the watch.
[Moto 360] kpjimmy:
Got my custom 22mm leather strap in. Fit's flush on. You NEED a watch tool to install bands like these. Especially a fully flush band like this one. Fits well and love the feel. Thick too! Now which do I wanna wear? SS Super Engineer II or this?

Where did I get it made? From cloverstraps.com. You can check out his other works as well. He mainly does watches, but I have solely kept him busy with smartwatch projects lol.

---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------

I didn't take pics of the backside of the watch to see if the "semi-circle" of the watch can be prone to breakage. I think I can say that my cloverstrap past the test. I guess wearing it more than today will tell. Not sure if scrapping my notches in the watch helped or not, but it's already done. And the band fits perfect inside of it. I don't think the band would have fit with the notches still in though. Anywhoo more pics here....

Was it plug and play or did you have to modify the middle portion for it to fit?

Had to modify the middle and cut out with a utility knife. Id much rather cut into an inexpensive watch band than cut out the part in the watch as others have done. If I ever choose to sell the 360, I think Ill have a better chance with no modification done to the watch.
[Moto 360] KidJoe:
How long are those Kreisler bands? i.e. is the strap length the same as the moto band (fits bigger wrist), smaller (doesn't fit as big of a wrist), or about the same?

How "soft" or flexible are they?

Especially the black?
[Moto 360] phermey:
i went to best buy and looked at em. they should fit most wrists. they are padded. which means the leather is really thin. so it shold be pliable enough from the get go.
[Moto 360] gtg465x:
I first used a dark brown leather Fossil band, but the other day I saw this dark brown leather Kreisler band at Best Buy and decided to pick it up because I liked the look a little more and the band is a little thinner and softer than the Fossil band. Looks much better in person by the way. The pictures on Best Buy's site are inaccurate.

Edit: Forgot to answer your first question. The Kreisler band seems like it will fit larger wrists than the Fossil band I had and the original Moto band. I wore both of those on the 4th or 5th hole (from the smallest), but the Kreisler I wear on the 2nd or third.
[Moto 360] chivamex10:
The Kreisler bands are 1/4 inch shorter than the OEM band that comes with the 360. Works for me as I have smaller wrists. Out out of the box they are stiff, not uncomfortable by any means but they will take some time to soften up.

Out of the two the tan one is my favorite. I have the LD West holster for my phone so it matches:cool:
[Moto 360] l_abrego:
I just got a dark brown leather band, I had to cut out a small gap with a utility band like the one on the original band.
