Well, ... I just can't wait and flash H955 rom on H959. Everything works except the radios. So I've decided to downgrade back to H959V10D. I used "upgrade recovery" method with LGMobile Support tools. normally it should work. Once the phone is flashed, it would go into a boot-loop and all i just need is to do a hard-reset, right? ... but I'm stuck at the boot-looping. whatever I pressed and hold, it won't reset my phone. the phone just boot-looping.
Is there any other method to get out of the boot-looping and go into hard-reset mode?

did you try this method? can you put your phone in download mode? I don't know if kdz for 959 is out yet but maybe you can downgrade to an older version suitable for your phone

I used that method previously to flash the 955 rom. Luckily, there is not much juice left in the battery an it turned-off after one and half hour. then I charged the phone to about 3% and then go to hard-reset. It is working fine now.
Oh, just one problem. after flashing 955 rom, there is 23.9 GB of system data occupied my 32GB storage and I've got no clue how to remove it. Even flashing back to 959 would not help removing it. Also did Hard-reset and factory reset as well but still can't get rid of that 23.9 GB off my storage.
I also had 8g free with 16gb model i think you should wait for 959 kdz 5.1.1

CSE Flash: Choose this option when you need a fresh format. All data will be gone. It's suitable for upgrading or downgrading ROM or simply use this when you need to back to Stock.
With lg flash tool if you choose cse you can upgrade or downgrade, as far as ls996 i am not sure if you flash it what will happen.
You say you are in bootloop have you tried your device to switch off because of empty battery? It can go to download mode? (Device closed press up arrow and connect it to usb to pc) have you also tried the official lg tool?
You have bootloop because of rooting progress?

I Found A Fix that doesn't require a factory reset after your phone screen gets stuck on the logo, basically go back to step 9, after unplugging your usb once more and while your running the cmd hold the volume up button and plug in your usb. repeat the steps from 9 to the end and once your phone starts up again be patient, it will take about a minute or so and it will say android is upgrading, then you will have superSU on your phone. Glad i can help, let me know if this helped you.

I've been in that situation twice, Flashing the update kdz through USB should fix it.
In any case, I could use the following information from someone in this situation: while in recovery, open an adb shell on the phone and type each of these:
Code:
echo "522 1" > /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/static_nvdata_raw_read
cat /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/static_nvdata_raw_read
echo "518 1" > /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/static_nvdata_raw_read
cat /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/static_nvdata_raw_read
echo "522 1" > /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/dynamic_nvdata_raw_read
cat /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/dynamic_nvdata_raw_read
echo "518 1" > /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/dynamic_nvdata_raw_read
cat /sys/kernel/kobject_lge_nvdata/dynamic_nvdata_raw_read
I need the output of each of the "cat" commands.
It's impossible to use adb the phone only displays the updating firmware screen that's all... I can put it into recovery mode without battery and pressing power and up but flashing via LG update tool will get you back into the firmware update screen

Vol-up+Power is download mode, not recovery. Still, that's strange. The LG Update tool should have installed the stock recovery, which wipes everything on the phone (including boot flags). Have you tried booting with Vol-down+Power to enter recovery?
And if that doesn't work, have you tried the KDZ Updater tool?
If you hold volume down + power it will power on and off again if you release power after LG logo I get firmware update screen, which kdz updater tool works on O3D?

Yes, same here and i think for all that have this problem
Vol.down+Power etc... I tested ALL!! KDZ Updater, several times with LG Updater Tool etc... NO Chance!
Always the same and you cant get into adb shell...
So there is only one way: LG Repair Center
Or lets hope that a updater tool comes that works with our O3D...

Kdz flashtool could solve the problem or using an usb.... U could leave the phone until the battery goes off and then recharge a little bit and try download mode again... the first method should work ... press the buttons correctly and connect the usb... working in 95%

could you please explain what you did?
my lgg2 d801 simply boots into the LG logo screen and stays there til it dies.
I do not know too many technicalities when it comes to adb or ubuntu, in fact i dont even know if those programs go on the phone or the computer through usb..
simple clarifications would make the world of difference to me as my phone is useless now.
I can enter download mode using your "let phone die then try again method" but i dont know what to do from there..
Please help me restore my phone to the 4.4.2 kitkat i had previously
thannks in advance

I have a D801 that was rooted on 4.4.2, and I stupidly took the OTA update. I can still use my phone to make calls, but nothing associated with google works. The phone will not boot into download mode, there is no recovery and no fast boot. I have tried everything. It will no reroot or anything . Is there anything that I can do.

I can confirm that that method worked for my G2. Make sure you press and hold volume up then plug the phone in. Hold volume up till you see the small box saying its in download mode.
The nice thing about this method it doesn't wipe your data.
Make sure you have downloaded the most current drivers first though before you plug in your phone. Then go to options and update recovery.

It worked for you because your partitions were not messed up. I know the procedure for getting into download mode, I tell you that it no longer works. Volume up while plugging usb in now gets me a battery charging icon . When you have a rooted phone running 4.4.2 and apply OTA update, it screws the partitions up. I can still send and receive calls, just can't sign into google or use playstore .

I had a similar problem with my T-Mobile LG G2 where I was rooted and accepted an OTA. It broke root and I couldn't get IOroot or Stumproot to work. Went to flash a downgrade and found the phone wouldn't go into download mode. It was NOT bricked. I finally tried playing around with the LG Mobile Support Tool (B2CAppSetup.exe). Of course it detected that my phone already had the latest firmware from T-Mobile, but then I clicked Options>Upgrade Recovery.
It downloaded for a while then I noticed it had put my phone into download mode (it said "Rooted" in red letters at the bottom). Then it flashed the same firmware over and I immediately tested, it entered download mode right away. But I didn't end up needing that as Stumproot was able to brute force it now after the recovery flash.
Anyway, I couldn't find an answer anywhere else. Most results also have a bricked phone, but that wasn't my issue. This solved my problem and maybe it could work for others.

mine is not different, just corrupted. Even took it to a craigslist repairman. He said that he did not have the expertise to repair it. It can't be put in recovery, download or fastboot mode. It also can't be rerooted.
ill ready repaired one equal but need it "octoplus box sw" for it
I decided to write a guide on how to recover from a bricked OnePlus One. This is my first guide.
About me: I am a newbie on Android.However, the XDA community has taught me a lot about my Android phone for the first month of using it. That's right! I have only been using Android for less than one month so take this guide with a grain of salt. But if you happen to soft brick your One, this is the guide to turn to. I have created two mind-bending/heartbreaking/frightening scenarios that I have experienced. Though, resolved thanks to this community.
Note: This will wipe your phone!
Scenario 1:
Soft bricked, (CM gear keeps spinning but won't boot to lock screen)
Scenario 2: Updated kernel on a non-compatible firmware.
Soft bricked, screen on 1+ logo and won't boot to lock screen.
Solution:
1. Download the toolbox from: (Make sure you download your version)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/toolbox-oneplus-one-toolbox-t2808987
2. Install the file.
3. Disconnect your OnePlus One from computer and power off your phone.
4. Go into Fastboot Mode (Volume Up + Power button) wait on vibrate
5. Plug in your OnePlus One.
6. Locate and open the OPO Toolbox.
7. Click Flash CM XNPH22R.
8. You should see command prompt open, just wait until it finishes doing it's thing.
9. Unplug and power off your phone.
10. Power ON your phone and wait until it prompts you re-setup your phone.
Congrats you have just fixed your phone from a soft brick. Simply follow the video from the link provided on step 1 to re-root your phone.
Note: If you have unlocked your bootloader, you do not need to unlock it again.
How to find out if you have unlocked bootloader:
1. Locate the folder where you installed the OPO Toolbox.
2. Hold Shift and right click on ANY white area within the folder.
3. Left click 'Open command window here'
4. Type:
fastboot oem device-info
If it returns True on tampered. Then you have unlocked your bootloader.
I hope this guide helps solve your soft-bricked problem. Good luck!

I did an ota update and it went in to a boot-loop, so I went into fast-boot and accidentally locked the boot-loader.
I think I have to try to hard-brick it and try the hard-brick solution with the qualcom drivers.

Then first you need to unlock the bootloader via fastboot,but that action erases all data. I assume,if you modified the boot via fastboot, USB DEBUGGING is working,so after try to do the softbrick tutorial of the thread.

how do i know which tool box version is mine ?
---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------
i tried the fastboot method, i successfully run alll the commands but still stuck in the bootloop.
i even tried adb, but i cant go into recovery mode for my computer to detect it. The weird thing is i can easily go into the fastboot mode but for some reason i can go into recovery mode. i tried turning of the phone by holding power button too long and then vol down + power button, still no luck, now im stuck with 2 options,
1. the toolkit solution
2. the qualcom thingy. It's been two days without my opo, and i feel so lost ! PLS if anyone sees my comments plss respond to me PLS! i willl forever be grateful to you!

The weird thing is i can easily go into the fastboot mode but for some reason i can go into recovery mode. i tried turning of the phone by holding power button too long and then vol down + power button, still no luck, now im stuck with 2 options,
1. the toolkit solution
2. the qualcom thingy. It's been two days without my opo, and i feel so lost ! PLS if anyone sees my comments plss respond to me PLS! i willl forever be grateful to you!

Did you find a solution ?
I'm facing the exact same issue on my OPO.
>> bootloader locked
>> no recovery
>> impossible to unlock the bootloader
>> OPO stuck at 1+ logo and keep rebooting agin and again and again...
....i think my OPO is dead T_T
Is it a way to force the bootloader unlock ?
Please HELP !!!
Didn't work for me
I'll give the background first as it might help. I long while back I did a manual upgrade to CM12s using the guide in this video "How to Install CM12S on OnePlus One - No Root or TWRP Required, No Data LOSS" from the oneplus exclusive Youtube channel.
It worked great no problems.
I recently I got the OTA update to CM13. There were several features I didn't like so I decided to go back. I repeated the process shown in the video but now my phone gets stuck on the CM logo screen and won't go past. I tried again but the same result. Then (I can see heads shaking, sorry) I tried a factory reset from the recovery screen, still the same goes past the 1+ logo but gets stuck at the CM logo. Then I found this guide, downloaded the toolbox but when I try to plash it says "fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command.
Any ideas?
Found a link on one of the threads here that said a guide on Reddit was useful, that didn't work as well. I am trying.
All done

Here is the rundown. I have the d 850 LG g3. Was planning on unrooting phone from towel root and rerooting it using towelroot once I found the mod I wanted. I have the latest version of twrp loaded as well. On my way home from work yesterday I was riding my motorcycle and listening to music, all the sudden the music stops so I pull over to see what happened and look to see that my phone has somehow opened twrp. I get home and try to reboot phone and it loads right back into twrp. I did a backup. Restarted phone to same results. I factory reset phone thinking that would work. NOPE. Straight back into twrp so I plug phone into computer to see what's on it. It appears all my games music LG backup etc is still there's why can't I get out of twrp. Could I have accidentally wiped everything while in my pocket? Can I fix this problem or do i now have a $500 paperweight? Please please folks out there in xda land help me out. I've got experience in rooting with my htc m7 so am familiar with this stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Somehow your rom partition/system seems to be corrupted. If you want to try and save your data, Please copy the downloaded version of your current rom and dirty flash (flash without wipe) and try to get back into the system. If you do not have your rom in your internal memory, try adb sideload or try to copy it to your external SD card and install from there.
You can also try to copy your stuff over to the external SD card using the file manager in TWRP and then wipe and install your rom.
If none of these wor, you still can flash factory image by process defined in the this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/general/unroot-return-to-factory-stock-att-lg-g3-t2820827
I believe you can still rescue your phone. Please let us know how it went.
I tried flashing a ROM with gaps and rebooted and it still senT me back into TWRP.
Maybe his phone tried to download and install the OTA? Try this also if the above doesn't work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/fix-stuck-custom-recovery-trying-ota-t2907508

The rom is normally a zip file.
If you already tried to flash a rom (other than your current one) I suggest you try the "back to stock" thing that was referred in my last post. If you have all the drivers in place and do the process correctly (preferably from a Windows 7 laptop), Your phone will be burst back to life in no time.. Good luck..!!

That is exactly what you want. You are now in download mode. So please proceed to next step (i believe the next step is on the laptop).
But the firmware update hasn't even gotten to 1% yet and I don't know how to get back to download mode. I don't know if unplugging device and trying again will mess it up even more. Device manager didn't pop up on computer either

Device manager wont "pop up".. you need to pull it from control pannel. Once you confirmed/changed the port to 41, i believe you can pull the usb, wait for 5 sec and put in back in. Follow exactly as instructed in the thread and you should be fine.

Also firmware update starts after the "usb pull" and re-plug in.

1) The "firmware update" page is the download mode.

Thanks for sharing. Testing tonight. I got the update to 5.1.1 from T-mobile and I did not know that if you try to root after the update, it will soft brick your phone and the user WILL NOT be able to do the factory restore with the power and volume down trick. The phone wont respond. My phone is pretty much dead. If this works, you will be my favorite superhero. Thanks!

I came back to say thank you again, you just saved my phone. Even my settings came back. You are the only person I was able to to find that had the right fix without running me around. I was not able to place the phone in download mode, but still followed your steps. The LG support too stopped at 24% and told me to remove the cable and the battery and place the battery back in. I placed the battery back and pushed the up volume almost at the same time that I inserted the USB cable on the phone. The phone went into download mode which I was not able to do before. Then the software continued to install the stock ROM. At the end, my phone rebooted and all my settings and apps were back how I left them before bricking the phone. Thanks forever.
It's Alive Again!
Thank you so much man. My LG devices have a history of dying due to flashing roms/recoveries but this is the first time a root messed up my phone. You saved me.

can you help me
Thanks! I followed the directions exactly and it worked perfectly
T-mobile had pushed an update to 5.1.1 and I reluctantly accepted. Then I tried to root using "LG One Click Root" application from XDA. It says it went through the rooting process successfully but when the phone restarts, it gets stuck at the LG boot screen. This fixes it!
So just FYI -- DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ROOT T-MOBILE LG LEON 5.1.1! IT WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE.
Will this work for LG G2 VS980? verizon
I always get stuck
I have tried over and over and i always get stuck at 47% on the LG Mobile Support Tool and 49% on the phone. Help me please.

I also used "LG One Click Root" but on a Metro PCS LG Leon LTE and it went through the process and rebooted but got stuck on the logo.
I'm having a situation where the downgrade succeeds, but the phone still stays at LG logo and keeps booting.
If I connect the LG mobile support tool application, it states the phone is on 34510d firmware (eg, it does not downgrade, but remains in boot loop).
What I did was upgrade manually to T-mobile 5.1.1 and then wanted to downgrade to original stock rom.
Opens LG Mobile Support Tool, then "Connection To Server Failed" error. Stops there. No joy on this "fix"
Any suggestions why?
Will this unlock the phone as well ?
LG Leon H345 KDZ Stock Firmware Download brick fix works
LG Leon H345 KDZ Stock Firmware Download brick fix works
This works 100%! Please be aware that this is a more direct link to the KDZ Firmware! It will take you straight to the page that you need to be at without having to worry about your IMEI number at all! It has the KDZ Firmware image for all countrys and make and models of this phone!
lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=171
Also, be aware that there are more download options than what you see up top! I almost downloaded the wrong file for my phone this way! This is because it had the tmobile h345 leon right there uptop so I just clicked on it and started downloading it. However when you scroll down you'll see that there is a USA section that actually has several different versions for the same phone! Most notably the V10d, v10e, and the v10f! When making your selection look at the back of the phone behind the battery under neither the IMEI number and you'll see what version you have. Mine was the v10e, v10d is whats at the top under most downloaded so please make sure that you pay attention and don't make the same mistake that I almost made!
I also made another discovery. If you are unable to run the flash tool then that means that you need to download Visual C++ runtime Libary.
Another thing, when running the flash tool you may notice that it attempts to connect to a server and then has and error and says that it failed. It will happen as its flashing the phone and you see the bar moving percentage wise. However, do not be alarmed and do not close out of the app and try again! If you look at your phone you'll see that the car is still moving and that files are still being updated!
Also, even once it gets to a 100% it will still take a few minutes to complete so dont' worry about that!

Yes, actually I do. In my last post i stated that that does occur every time. However, you don't have to worry, just don't close the program and wait. If you look at your phone you notices that it will continue to update the even though it has that error, Once the phone is done updating and reboots. You'll see it updating the applications on the phone! An you'll be good to go!
So there IS JOY, in the FIX after all! Trust me, I just did it! :good:

Yes it does say that. A screen pops up with an OK button and tell you that the connection to the server failed and asks you if you would like to cancel the update. Just ignore it and wait and watch you phone and you'll see it update.
Also, on doing another phone i've noticed that the Read Phone command when you first press the normal flash button can cause the application to crash for some reason. However, if you just sick that part and press START then you'll be able to proceed as normally and it will work just fine!:good:
