Which dll are you using? Are you not using the DLL with the model in the name? Or using the LGUP / megalock dll?

Also you must have download mode to flash. But the 9008 error is most likely a dead phone.
[LG G Flex 2] Dolphinus83:
Im using the lgup dll provided on this post, I was hoping there could be something to do with the phone, but as you say I cant get to download mode and is most likely dead. I guess I will be using it for spare parts:(

[LG G Flex 2] AwesomeTurtle:
Thanks a ton, good sir! Worked like a charm (all I had to do was unplug/replug after hitting the arrow and it flashed in ~2 minutes).
[LG G Flex 2] darktwolf380:
is the dll file for the att version the right one? it says that the model is 8974 when it should be 950
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
Yes.

i keep getting a failed previous load () error everytime i try to load the files. i'm on the pr version and rooted if that helps. i just want to go back to the at&t based rom
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
Did you download the tot file using a download manager? Also reboot the computer?
[LG G Flex 2] darktwolf380:
i downloaded it through my browser but i just restarted my pc let me try once more
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
Yeah try not to download large items with a browser. Always use something like free download manager or internet download manager. Usually will download faster as well.
[LG G Flex 2] darktwolf380:
sill the same thing. i also forgot to put in my first comment i'm rooted also would that change anything
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
No. Being rooted has nothing to do with it.
[LG G Flex 2] darktwolf380:
ok ill download again and try once its finished to see if that helps. thanks for the help.
[LG G Flex 2] darktwolf380:
download finished on my slow internet but that did the trick everything is working fine now. Thanks a bunch for the files and guide.

I'm glad it worked for you now! :). Your welcome.

Hey, haven't really been keeping up with the forms, but i have the at&t h950. is my only alternative still the h950pr, or are there other ROMs are can load now?

Phone/Text?

I'm having an issue after flashing the ZV8 ToT. Everything works but I can't make calls or send texts and it relentlessly gives me an error dialog saying "Unfortunately, com.android.phone has stopped working". I can stop the error dialog box by doing a Factory Reset, but then I have no calls or texts. Once I try to do the hands-free activation or PRL Update or Profile update, I start getting the dialog box again and still no calls/texts. To clarify.......

Factory Reset = Removal of com.android.phone error dialog, BUT no calls or texts will go through.

Triggers for repeated com.android.phone error dialog:

1. Reboot

2. Activate This Device/Hands Free activation

3. Manual PRL Update

4. Manual Profile Update

Also: When attempting to make a phone call, it says "Dialing" but after a minute it just beeps and closes the call with a red bar that says "Out of service area".

Does anyone out there have any clues as to what could be causing this and how to fix it? I have tried deleting data/cache from Phone app, contacts storage, contacts, etc then rebooting but that doesn't help. Factory reset does as stated above. Thank you all for your time and thank you for any info you might have!

Are you on Sprint network? LS996 is Sprint Variant and to make it work on other networks, you have to replace some system files.

What tot file? What model? These are not roms these are stock firmwares. Depends on your model if there are tot files are not... Also a tot file will be older firmware and not an updated firmware.

Why do you need tot if kdz method worked for you??

[LG G Flex 2] JohnS85:
So I followed the instructions posted, and on initially launching the LG Flash Tools there was some menu I didn't see mentioned so I just clicked through it, but the default choice was what appears to be Korean. After flashing, it appears my entire phone is now in Korean, system boot menus, UI, etc. How can I fix this? Or does this ROM only come in a Korean language? I know I can go into the Android settings and change the UI language, but the boot menus are still in Korean and if I do a fresh reinstall, it again all turns to Korean. Please help, I can't seem to get that initial menu to pop up again even if I uninstall/reinstall flash tools.
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
What you choose in flash tool has nothing to do with the language on your phone. The language is only Korean if you chose it on the setup wizard on the phone after flashing. Just reset and change the language.
[LG G Flex 2] JohnS85:
Here's what I'm seeing in terms of the system menus and screens being in Chinese or Korean I guess? This is the screen when you do a reset and it's optimizing the apps I think.

I would like that and other system boot screens to be in English. Also, in case the next Android comes out for this phone OTA, I would like my phone to be nonrooted. How can I reverse this firmware process?

My phone currently looks like this:

I have an unlocked Flex2 AT&T H950 which was 5.0.1 I think, I downloaded and flashed the ATT_H950_11Z_TOT.rar file, and now it's 5.1.1 11Z without the AT&T stuff, but it has the Chinese stuff and is rooted. I was looking around and saw this thread -

http://xdaforums.com/g-flex2/general/p-restore-recovery-to-stock-tool-h950-t3171550

Can I use the "H950 v11Z https://mega.nz/#!MBdzTL7K!hLQcICzHS...Xif1zx7L5JuCdY" file to install a non-rooted stock US AT&T version of my system or will this brick it somehow? I'm not sure what steps I should take. Thanks for any help and advice.
[LG G Flex 2] JohnS85:
Just wanted to give people an update. I received an unlocked H950 on 5.0.1, I updated it to 5.1.1 using the ATT_H950_11Z_TOT.rar in this thread, with some side issues, and afterwards was successfully able to load the H950 v11Z file from the other thread successfully. Few notes for people that aren't super tech inclined, just like I'm not.

1) The system.img.gz file isn't want you want, you need to unzip it to just be roughly a 4gb system.img file.

2) When the other thread mentions putting this file in the root of the device, I thought that meant "/" in the file system, the actual root. After hours and hours of trying to find a way to write to the actual device root with the phone crashing from file size I guess, I realized it meant the root that's visible to the user under emulated and mapped internal memory, basically the drive that pops up in Explorer when you connect the phone is the root being referenced, not actual device root

3) The directions are correct otherwise, as is the video, it's weird when it goes into firmware mode, stays at 0% and says it's finished. This is fine, and remember to disconnect and reconnect when you see ##, it's safe and correct to do.

lg flex 2 ls996 sprint

I have zv9 ls996 , I can flash with zv8 ?
[LG G Flex 2] musicayraices:
Hello Wiseowl,

where I can download the unmodified unrooted ZV8 ToT? thanks!!
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
There's a ZV8 tot in the OP..
[LG G Flex 2] musicayraices:
I flash my ls996 zv8 and it was fine , everything goes , but does not recognize my sim card ... I can do ? Thank you!!!:good:
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
That would be due to the LS996 is a sprint phone which primarily is meant for the CDMA network not GSM. You have to either root it and downgrade the software / modem or whatever guide there may be to get he sim slot to work.
[LG G Flex 2] Wiseowl444:
Oh yeah something ELSE I figured out is that most of the SPRINT corporate stores now have a new computer system that was sent out company-wide. They will flash stock firmware (including ZV9) to the LS996. Apparently on this new system they have, the firmwares get sent to them in realtime straight from LG during the process. Just be careful because some of those techs won't immediately know to flash the firmware ZV9 to ZV9 and not downgrade (ZV9 to ZV7). In fact I had to tell the guy to look because he didn't think ZV9 had even come out yet until I showed him my system build on my phone. Then he went into the system, did a search and voilà! So just a tip, try your Sprint store if you don't feel comfortable trying any of this. Just MAKE SURE you are very specific with them. I hope this helps someone!

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

Glad the ZV8 worked for you! I hope you're able to get the sim card issue fixed.
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
Thanks for that info. But I don't think that person is in the US. I could be wrong but most users that report sim problems after flashing the sprint model are usually outside of the US and using it on a GSM carrier.
[LG G Flex 2] Wiseowl444:
Ahhh yes. Sorry, I'm afraid my common sense is running a tad short today. Lol my bad! Just wanna say thanks again to everyone here though, really. Had it not been for all the useful info in this thread and related links, I never would've gotten mine fully back.

If your phone is freezing, then you didnt do a CSE or Refurbish flash. Your flashing by choosing CSE correct? If so this may be a hardware issue.

Hi all,

Bricked my H950 with rooted 5.1.1 PR

Tried to reflash 5.1.1 PR, but LG Flash Tools 2014 stucked at 9%.

So I flashed 5.1.1 AT&T TOT using this guide, and everything is ok right now. It's even already rooted:)

BTW, I'm used Win10 x64 without no problems with drivers or applications.
[LG G Flex 2] gomhtog:
Tried that as well, but it wants to run an update for the lg software, and if there is no connection it looks for one and does not want to continue.
[LG G Flex 2] Rully Hidayat:
What LG Flash Tools version do you use? Mine is LG Flash Tools 2014 and it works on all LG Models.

http://www.mediafire.com/?fwrcd3pdj0svjtb
[LG G Flex 2] gomhtog:
That's the one that doesn't want to work. I got that directly off the guide on here, for kdz files.

Tried it again disconnected from the net, and the tool loaded fine but stopped at 9% as usual. I'm going to see if I can find a different firmware file and if that'll make a difference. I have only been able to find one file for my country, unfortunately though.
[LG G Flex 2] gomhtog:
Okay. The LG Flash Tool works with 0 problems. It turns out that it was the kdz file that was the problem, not anything else. Though now I sit with the problem that the firmware I flashed was also 5.1.1, unfortunately. Not sure how to proceed now, as the site I got my firmware from only has the one file.
[LG G Flex 2] Tech_Savvy:
great that you finally got it..
[LG G Flex 2] gomhtog:
Yep! It was a good lesson to learn and now I at least know how to proceed to flash my phone in the future. Just a pity that the firmware wasn't 5.0.1, so I still can't root and I seriously need root since the space on the H955 is so insanely limited.
[LG G Flex 2] Tech_Savvy:
jcase and autoprime and team have root method for lg g4 that will probably work for this..but they havent released it yet..there still working on a safe way to do it...patience is gold :)
[LG G Flex 2] gomhtog:
Indeed! It's a pity that this model isn't more popular. The performance with the new update is brilliant, it's just the space that's an issue.

theres the link to lgup_8974.dll i uploaded it to google drive for you guys!

so basically what i did was flashed just like the tut says but instead of using the ls996.dll i used the LGUP_8974.dll that stank0 said to use, then i got the blue screen and i rebooted and it tried to reboot but i stopped it and put it into download mode again, and flashed the ls996.dll again with the zv5 tot, then it went into the minios bootloop again but this time it got a blue screen at the end of the minios logo, then i put it in download mode agan, and instead of using the .dll i just flashed ZV5 and clicked on the board_dll option at the bottom and PROFIT!
