Sign onto pc as admin. You will need to delete LG stuff on your pc before starting. Turn off antivirus temporarily to extract some files; Defender in particular may delete certain driver files and not tell you.

thanks.
But after I did something stupid :/
I flashed another ROM and now i have i get a security error and i can't even use flash tool :/
HELP PLEASE.
it's my sisters phone. she would kill me haha

Just reflash firmware by LG Flash Tool. It will rewrite everything. What do you mean you can't use it?
---------- Post added at 12:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 AM ----------
Some ROMs require custom bootloader; normally the cause of security error.
---------- Post added at 12:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 AM ----------
You must be on ICS to flash that custom ROM; you can't just install it over GB. That is what the tutorial is for...to install ICS and then the ROM.
Multiple posts are due to xda app being goofy. Can't edit a post. Dunno what is up.

I connect it by pulling battery and holding volume up and it just keeps connecting and disconnecting. It did this when I used your guide but everything turned out OK following your thread you sent me earlier. But I decided to try a different ROM (I guess just because I could) and then I got security error. -_- when I try lgflashtool is just says ready and doesn't pick up my device. Tried restarting PC ect.

someone please help?
Phone wont even get detected in lgflashtool. tried volume up. pulling battery ect.

Install drivers first as in part 1.

Managed to boot into Fastboot using OS hacking tool. but all i get when trying flash recoveries or bootload is remote partition does not exist. and LGflashtool can't detect it. am in big trouble guys please.

AHA I think the main big problem is that the LGE mobile USB serial port is not detected/installed! Anyway to get this installed cause I can't boot up the phone?

If you had read and followed my guide you would already have it.

[Q]Unlocked T Mobile LG G2 not working after Upgrade software

Hi,
Recently I brought T Mobile LG G2 Unlocked Phone from US. Few Days back I clicked on "Update&Center" Icon and it started updating apps and also I updated the system. This system update spoiled my phone with out knowing it I clicked on system update. After upgrade my phone is not starting and going to teamwin console as shown in image. I tried to find out solution in lot of website but I am not understanding where to start, how to start and what softwares I need to download. I tried to go to LG Service center here in India but they wont service other country LG mobiles. Even I tried to repair in mobile shop but no use.
Can some one please tell me the steps how to bring back my LG G2 Mobile to Working state. I am really confused what kind of software to download some one will say download drivers install through LG Flash tool. Please some one guide me what all steps I need to do. Any suggestion would be much appreciated.

Before you try it again do a factory reset using the poweron key sequence? (power+vol-, let go when LG logo comes up, press again immediately

[Q] Sony Xperia Tipo softbrick ?

Hello, I'm new to xda and android modding, in other words: a lame-ass noob. I was quite interested in flashing cyanogenmod on my xperia tipo(under my circumstances I can't really use a pc) I rooted it via a nifty little app called baidu-root tool, as a noob I'm not sure that gives it proper root access, on the cwm ROM manager I tried to flash a recovery on my phone but I failed and gave up. Since I can't use a PC I had to think of a way to unlock my boot loader so I I downloaded the app that soft bricked my tipo: ez unlock. It was too good to be true, so I rebooted and eversince it's been bricked, so I have to unbrick it pronto. I read somewhere that I can get flash tool and relock the boot loader and via PC companion I can hit "repair my phone" and viola it's back to normal... any advice ? Also I can't find the proper s1 fast boot drivers, please help...

Yes you can always restock.. just go to your phone model's development thread and download stock rom for yourself and flash it using pc

[URGENT!] Help required! HTC One M8, no sim detected, no IMEI, unknown baseband

Hi,
I have converted my HTC One M8 to Google Play Edition from Sense 6. After successfully instlaling GPE on my device, the SIM card cannot be detected, no IMEI and baseband is unknown. However, if i recover my backup to HTC sense, the sim card is working again. So this is definitely not a hardware issue, and i have googled online to see that there are a few people experiencing this issue as well, however no real solutions can be found.
I REALLY DESPERATELY need help from anyone that is able to solve this. I will be very grateful, and thank you in a form of donation. PLEASE HELP, ANYONE!!! THANKS!!!!

Please help anyone??
I have done more research and some people said that it is because of the radio.img. My current location is in Singapore, so i am guessing it should be fine if i flash radio.img from taiwan or hongkong? Can anyone verify that the issue i am facing is because of radio.img?
Please advise!!!

It should be radio.img or if you have this folder in your phone than replace with the stock one /system/etc/modem

Thank you for your response! To be honest I am not too much of a techie, but i am guessing if i dont have this folder, i couldnt just create the directory and paste the .img file in right? I need to flash it? I do not have any of the folders you have stated, system, etc, firmware. I have gone to folder options to view hidden files, and used the search function to search all these keywords for the folder but could not find any folders named system, etc, or firmware.
So what do i do now? Do I go ahead with the hongkong or taiwan .img and flash it? If it doesn't work, could i just repeat the same process and flash another country's img? Would it just overwrite, or would i have do "uninstall" then flash a new .img to try another region's one?
Thanks!

I HAVE SOLVED THE ISSUE!!!
I will just state here how i have did it to help people that are facing the same issue!
Please refer to the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2736921
I have chose the radio.img based on the ORIGINAL CID of my device, and chose taiwan's radio.img. After flashing the radio.img, and rebooting my phone, I HAVE MOBILE NETWORK!!!! WOOT!!!

Okay I'm at work so I do have all the correct zip files and Odin version, but I used Odin and automobile rar. File started Odin and it failed half way through, when I tried it a second time it seemed to get further but failed also, once I unplugged and reboot, a message said the update failed to use kies to complete the update. The kies reinstalled the rom back to factory and I lost everything. .

As far as I know the CF-Auto-Root/TWRP method still works fine in Lollipop.

I am furious that this simple process has gotten hard for me. I flashed CF auto root, and it failed (as the thread said it would). I went through the steps to flash TWRP and it fails the same way THAT CF auto-root failed. I tried to use the no-download mode option on step 4 instead (like you guys suggested) and my odin just sat there. It was still on, but everything was grayed out. There was no change to my phone and it was still usable.
I rooted this phone no problem when I bought it. I just factory reset it and flashed to 5.0.1. What am I doing wrong?
