I had the exactly same problem, and I had to go to afterservice center to repair. Engineer told he would wipe everything and install new rom. but He failed to write rom so he simply changed mainboard.

At first I had thought about open my g2 and makes it go into qualcomm download mode by short-circuit.

the reason I didn't was my warranty was still available.

I tried every method to make it boot into recovery or download mode but I failed. In my opinion, you may try short-circuit method for last solution. In this situation, even linux doesn't mount rom's storage section. Only if you can make G2 recognized in Linux, G2 will revive.

good luck.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmayhemreturnsx:
The best way to go if you do not have a warranty is to short circuit the board and get into Qualcomm ... 9006 mode. However, when you get the demigod error plug in you usb and click up and it should start download mode even though it doesn't show it.

How do you short the pins? There's a guide here on xda but it's so difficult to undestand. I need to know how can I short the pins.

No, it doesn't. I try to use flashtool but it doesn't recognize the phone. No download mode in any method I tried
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wabbisabbi:
I got into this error after I had previously recovered into qhs_usb9006_bulk mode from a hard bricked D801, by shorting the capacitors on the main board. After entering qhs_usb9006, I used srk tools 2.1 for my phone, and after they finished, I tried entering download mode, only to get into this error. I really don't know what it is to say about this. Everything turned wrong with this phone, it went from simply failing a .kdz, to stock .tot, to hard brick, and now to this error, whereas it should've just enter the download mode, as for the 99,99% of the others. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.

L.E. I shorted the capacitors again (the one i the middle, like I did the first time, when i got into 9006 mode. 5000 and 5004 didn't work for some reason). This time I got into dload mode, which is 9008. I'll try to recover the phone from here, with this method:

Can someone post a KK baseband for D801 (T-Mobile)? I'm on D80120a software version with unknown IMEI and baseband (the phone is a D801 refurbished into D802, I more than hardbricked it by flashing wrong .kdz, got it recovered through shorting pins, 9008 mode, got download mode, D80120a stock, root, twrp, after a very long and painful process of about 1 month). Now I have to make use of QPST, but I have to obtain a valid baseband first. Of all links I've stumbled upon, only 5% or less of them are still working, so I only have one flashable modem, in twrp recovery, which corresponds to D801 jb version.

I'm simply stuck and pray for some devine help.

Thank you.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wabbisabbi:
Weird enough, I flashed a canadian modem and I got both baseband and IMEI. Why did I do that in the first place? Because I remembered that before all these things happened to my phone, the baseband was M8974A-AAAANAZM-1.0.190082, which corresponds to D803. So I said to myself what can happen by flashing the wrong modem? Boot loop, easily fixable with the phone in it's current state. But again, after 1 month of trouble with the phone, I'm back to what exactly started it in the first place: phone seem to work OK but it has 2 huge problems: WiFi extremely weak (2 meters away and a wall or 5 meters away and no wall a and I lose the signal in both cases; the 2nd is wit the GPS - 20-30 meters error). No idea how should I adapt the radio to Europe region (by keeping the canadian one and change the settings, if it's even possible/fixable this way or if this even does make any sense).

Same issue on d805

Hello everyone, i have a D805 and got the same error when trying to boot into recovery mode.

I flashed the stock LP .kdz via Lg flash tool, but since this rom drains a lot of battery I decided to flash Cloudy g2 3.3 to see how it does.

On a attempt to install twrp via twrp manager, since there is no LP autorec for the D805, the twrp app prompted a sucess message and i asked to reboot in recovery mode.

Then i got this error screen, but my rom is booting normally.

Anyone with a D805 got the same problem? Is there any workaround to install LP auto rec on D805?

I thank in advance anyone who could help me!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stefgun:
FIXED!

Same problem here. Fixed this way: download and install USB DRIVERS and LG PC SUITE from lg official site. Turn off your phone. Have your usb cable connected to the laptop only. With the phone being off, press UP VOLUME BUTTON and keep it pressed while connecting the usb cable to the phone. Now the phone will enter in download mode. Open LG PC SUITE on ur pc/laptop and go to MOBILE DEVICE and under that click on RESTORE UPGRADE ERRORS. Let it do the job for you. It takes about 15-20 minutes, when it finishes it will restart your phone and it will be ok, no demigod problem.

Now my problem is that every time I try to go to recovery mode AFTER I ROOT my phone, I am getting this DEMIGOD CRASH. Any suggestions on this one? I am on Lollipop 5.0.2 D802 model.

NO. MHL cable will not work with this device. Here is a quote from "GSM Arena" review:

[ZenFone 2 Accessories] KevOne:
I just got this case yesterday, I ordered on May 5th and I received it on May 13th. Very fast shipping from US to Canada. Case looks and fits nicely, the edges are glossy but the back of the case has a nice matte finish with that "Amzer" logo. As for drop protection, It would probably survive, but keep in mind that the case is very thin (about 1 mm thick on all sides). It's not like an Otterbox case, but I prefer these types of thinner cases.

These are one of the nicest ones available right now besides the generic unbranded tpu cases, and I'm also waiting for this one to come in the mail: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/C1-NILLKIN-N...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item35e86b1904
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] wolfie083188:
I ordered this case a couple of days ago and will be making a quick review on it as soon as I get it via YouTube. I feel like there's a lack of cases or information on this phone and I want to contribute.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] bloodomen2:
i dont like the generic rugged cases their materials feels too cheap and flimsy

i usually buy UAG cases for my devices
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] bloodomen2:
dose it at least have a lip to protect the screen ?

i ordered a nillkin glass screen protector but i usually also match it with a case that have a decent lip

the bigger they are the harder they fall :laugh:

i might also order that nillkin tpu from the link for a try... dust plugs are a nice addition
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] KevOne:
Yes, it does have a lip that covers that entire phone, it keeps the screen at least 1 mm off the ground when you put it face it down. And yeah, I can't wait for that Nillkin case, it covers everything on the phone from the headphone jack, volume buttons and charging port. Everything except the camera :D
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] hkdmjack:
I have this case, which I feel matches the nillkin tempered glass screen protector very well. (looks like they may be OOS for the ZF2)
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] rony1234:
I received the Amzer case two days back. I'm not too happy with the case and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

The pros are...

1. It covers all the sides and has a lip the protects the screen.

2. The buttons have neat cutouts.

3. The back is a nice Matt finish.

The cons are...

1. The case is slightly loose on the lower side near the USB port.

2. The sides have an unfinished sharp edge running across all 4 sides. This spoils the feel of the case when you hold it in your fingers.

3. Glossy sides spoil the look and make it look cheap.

4. On two sides there's a small extrusion that looks like an unfinished factory flaw from the moulding process.

In the past I have used TPU cases from vendors like Diztronic and I have to say the quality of those cases was way better. For the price Amzer is charging for this case they should have delivered a quality product.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] iainmann:
I got this case from eBay UK:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301580146391?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

And I can recommend it. Cutouts are good, it's slim but still just overhangs the screen to protect it. In fact, you hardly notice it when it's on.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] alose:
I have the Nillkin TPU Nature case. I really like the feel and keeps the device feeling slim. The dust plugs are nice, and the power button is easier to use with the case on.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Trotter516:
I received mine today. It has already become my favorite of four cases I have received thus far (Nilkin, Amzer, Sparin, Einzige).
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] cmendonc2:
So this case covers the buttons on the phone? All the other cases just leave a cutout, which i imagine would make them hard to press.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] alose:
Yes the case covers the buttons, and are easy to press. The power button is actually easier then without a case.

I have another TPU case and has cutouts. The volume buttons are still accessible with that one, but the power button is a real pain to press.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] bloodomen2:
just received the nillkin tpu case

very nice case for the price its well built barely adds any bulk and provide decent protection
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] glock24:
The original Asus case seems good, with textured finish that should give good grip:

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1147172-REG/asus_90xb00ra_bsl2n0_bumper_case_for_zenfone.html

I haven't ordered it yet, but so far is my first consideration. It seems better than other cheap TPU cases I've looked at. as most of them seem to have a smooth finish and seem slippery. I also don't like the "shiny" look most of these TPU cases have.

Hello,

I'm a little bit curious, I know that mass storage is very difficult, and on many phones there is no way to get this working under CM, or something else.

But I heard of OTG not working on the new cyanogen-based-builds, but nobody sees this as a bug.

In the kernel there should be an option to enable OTG(at least the kernels which I have modified, had this option).

model SM-G900A

I got it as description mentioned unlocked, as I also own a Note 2 and I did got it rooted and a new ROM and that one no longer goes trough the verification process. same network as the galaxy s5.

I just dont want to mess with this new phone, I might contact the seller for misleading people into and unlocked phone when in fact it seem that is a AT&T phone.

Forgot to mention it does have some At&T apps installed, so would that and the fact that I cant tether make it a locked phone to AT&T?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakuu:
The issue is that most carriers have their own little tethering app the overwrite the native one with, att does it, and so its trying to verify you but it obviously cant since you arent on their network, you'll have to root and enable native tethering or install a rom with native tethering already included im pretty sure, i dont think theres a way to do it without root. I may be completely wrong though, i do know however that with the att one it caused issues even with att customers, so thats a thing.
