[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.

Try these and see if it helps...

Hi Swizzle,
Thank you for your reply.
I tried both links, but still my phone is going to "teamwin" console. Process I followed : Advanced -> Terminal Command -> Select ->
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota -> Go
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc -> Go
Please see the attachment also.

Some One Please Help Me

Sorry I should of added more information.
I followed the guide that google gives to flash the ROM using the original stock image cant post link since I am a new member
it failed still having the endless boot animation.,
also my problem is I didnt had usd debugging enabled. So its make hard to use some of the ADB Commands

Google's guide (flashing the zip file) often fails, not sure why. Look in my guide for a better way to do this. Though if you have a persist partition corrupted, flashing Lollipop will not help. You will still not be able to boot. See my guide. Good luck!

Firstly CM does not play well with flashing back to stock. But it seems you've lost recovery so there's no way to flash a stock based rom first.
Have you tried using LGUP yet?
Your also placing your phone into download mode correct?
And using a USB 2.0 port? USB 3.0 will not work.

Need help

So after flashing my D850 from 4.4.2 to 7.0, I cannot access TWRP recovery. Ever since I flashed the rom, I keep getting these 3 errors:
"boot certification verify
secure booting error
cause:boot certification verify".
I can still boot into 7.0, but it's not fully functional. It's missing apps, functions, keeps crashing, etc.
Any suggestions to fixing this?

Only solution is to flash back to stock. CM normally seems to loose access to twrp. Not sure if there's a simple way of getting it back but normally all I know is flashing back to stock

You would follow the tot method, and be sure to choose board_dl when you choose the tot and dll file in the software

I still dont understand why your saying it wont allow you to change the port settings? I've never ever seen this. If the port is there you can change it. Remmeber your phone HAS to be in download mode for the com port to show up to change it to com41. Why not try LGUP?

When you say flashing, fhalsing what exactly got you the bootloop? Was it flashing the engineering Boot.img through Odin or the fix S7 zip through Flashfire... Or something else?
I don't have a Cricket branded S7, but always offering to help you research.

Only a few things I can think to ask:
1) You are using the Odin version by PrinceComsy... not the original version of Odin?
2) When you download the engineering boot image, you're downloading it for your phone model (S7 for S7, S7 Edge for the S7 Edge)? Maybe you accidentally downloaded the wrong one?
3) When uploading the boot image through Odin, the boot image TAR file is in the AP slot of Odin?
4) Last thing I can think is easy, is the boot image is still a TAR file correct? Its not a ZIP or any other file extension?
Have you tried downloading the image again? I invite you to check out a thread I'm part of if you want another location to download the S7 engineering boot image, that thread located here and the boot image file can be downloaded directly from here

Correct s7 for s7

You're welcome, just trying to figure it out. Though I see this is a common thing, so I wonder what is different with the Cricket version?
And you're rooting the Nougat version of the phone? This seems to be a topic floating around with no one explaining it. I've tried looking to see if maybe the processor might be somehow a "reduced" version of the 820 compared to the others... but everything makes it look like it should work.
Only other thing I would say is go back through all the steps, and make sure you're not accidentally skipping one. I did that a bunch of times when I first started off. I ended up printing off instructions and making note edits. Took me a few different sets of instructions until I found a formula that worked for my G930P

Oh I'll have to go back and do some rereading then, because I thought I saw some websites saying that phone was already on Nougat. If you're still on MM this should be easier I would think... hmmm
For me, it took me about 4 or 5 different threads of talking about how they rooted their Sprint S7 phone, for me to find the right instructions for myself to root my phone. But I know along the way I would miss a step, then my phone wouldn't boot or bootloop like yours. That's why I went back and printed out instructions and checked off to make sure I didn't skip anything. After awhile I could wrap my head around it.
Just saying we are all human, so it's easy to skip a step. Though it doesn't seem like you're the only one having this problem. But if all the branded US phones are pretty much rooted one way or another, I don't see why yours would be any different.

Your probably right I'll try those steps again and see if anything changes. The only model I see that's close to g930az would be the at&t which is g930a. I know I got lucky with the last attempt to try with it in soft brick. I just don't want to try to many and it be completely screwed. Because on cricket you have to buy all of you phones up front well at least I had to with mine. I'll try it again and let you know if it worked or I have a paper weight haha. Thanks again

Your probably right I'll try those steps again and see if anything changes. The only model I see that's close to g930az would be the at&t which is g930a. I know I got lucky with the last attempt to try with it in soft brick. I just don't want to try to many and it be completely screwed. Because on cricket you have to buy all of you phones up front well at least I had to with mine. I'll try it again and let you know if it worked or I have a paper weight haha. Thanks again

With following the steps you are and what you have happening, you should be OK with being able Odin back to factory firmware.
Yeah Cricket is kind of the double edge sword, you have to buy the phone up front, but they have CHEAP prices for good service. I had them when I first moved to Arizona and would have kept them, if I didn't travel so much.
Report back if anything changes.

Do you have the stock firmware and Odin? Flash that will get you back to stock and functional. Does take awhile to flash the full imagine, but can pretty much fix any software brick issues.

What's the failure error? OEM Unlock in Android was turned on correct?

It says "Encrypt Error" in smart switch. What does OEM Unlock mean?

By default the phones are locked so someone can't steal your phone and Reimage it. If you boot your phone up after trying to flash do you get an FPR or some sort of error like that?

I would recommend going to sammobile or updato to get the firmware for your phone. Sounds like you have the wrong model. If you need help I can help in an hour or so when I get home.
