Help with unbricking a hardbricked H631 - LG G Stylo Questions & Answers

Long story short, a kdz flash may have been interrupted. Now I am unable to boot my stylo at all. I can however see it under device manager, where it is labeled "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008". Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I bricked mine and used LG Bridge to get to Lollipop and then I took the OTA to Marshmallow
Also, LG UP method can be used as well.

I kinda am stuck in this position too. Does LG bridge pick it up in this mode? Did you have that problem? I've been trying and it seems the only thing I can find is QPST using QFIL but then I can't seem to transfer the data and get an error about Sahara not being able to transfer the data over.

I have the MetroPCS version and totally screwed up messing around with something. I had no recovery. I had to use one of the methods to get it back up and running.
If you have the Tmobile or Metro version, you should be fine.

Did you have the same QDLoader 9008 issue?

LG Bridge doesn't appear to be working for me as it's not even detected.

Try LG Flash tool. That can get you back to Lollipop.

Or LG UP method should work.

I can't actually access download mode, meaning neither of those options can detect my phone.

LG UP has an option that does not require download mode

I can't get LG UP to detect my device at all.

Use a different USB cable. That's what happened to me. I had to try every single USB cable in my house, even from other phones.

AFAIK, in order to fix a hard bricked (Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008) lg stylo we need make something like this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...nbrick-g-stylo-ls770-qualcomm-hs-usb-t3368269) but for the H631/MS631 variant.

Can some of you look at THIS method used on LG V10 TMO variant for unbricking Qualcomm 9008?
I posted a thread HERE with the instructions from the user that created the backup and method to unbrick.

Hi, have the same qualcomm 9008 issue aftet kdz, so is there any solution?

So the brick is so bricked you can't even get to download mode.

Lg h631 hardbricked
Please any solution yet on this thread? I have had the same issue for a year now.

LGMS631 (MetroPCS LG G Stylo) Root/Unbrick/Recovery
So, I think I've managed to salvage my bricked Stylo, I somehow also managed to root my Fiance's LG G Stylo that's on the 6.0 update...
Since I can't find any ways to fix this problem on the internet I'll post what I did here so hopefully I can get some other people out of deep water with their phone.
Here is the thread I made I don't think it will work for a hardbrick, but it might be worth a shot..
LGMS631 MetroPCS LG G Stylo Backup (Unbrick/Root) Android 6.0

That won't work because your phone still works. You can boot past the 9008 mode.

So basically the phone is useless and can't be brought back to life at this point

I'm in the same position, flashed a lollipop kdz on a marshmallow and it effectively trashed the emmc. Without an insider leaking signed programmer and flasher mbns, flashing via sahara is not possible. For the moment, you need one of those expensive 20pin JTAG boxes and documentation for the ISP points(I can't find this info, it's paywalled). Under the shield facing the back of the phone is a header that may be for JTAG, but I haven't bothered probing as I don't think it's practical for unbricking.

Sorry to hear this but you aren't the first one nor will you be the last.
I suggest you read before trying anything next time.

As that guide says, it will not work on the LG G series. If you flashed a ROM from another device then your G5 is bricked permanently. Just like the previous links in this thread state, your only solution is to claim the insurance, I wouldn't claim warranty as they may charge you if they realize it's been unlocked.
So are you telling me that i can't do nothing?

I would try for a warranty repair and hope they don't notice you messed with it http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-LGH830SV if not you will have to do the insurance or buy a new phone
Just sent mine in. Hope and prey they just reflash it and send it back.

Keep us posted
Will do. They should receive it Monday. So don't know how long before I get a answer back.
LG service has the tools to do this. They just reflash the proper firmware and the phone is back in business.
LG phones are particularly unforgiving with this error. If you trip the anti-rollback flag by flashing an older stock firmware, it will do the same thing. Pretty ridiculous.
So just got the email phone is on its way back....They fixed it...The lady from lg said they replaced the motherboard. I think they just flashed it So i should get it back next week. I will keep you guys updated on if there is any issues once i see it.

Dead Boot LG G5 H820. Is there a way to fix.

I had LG G5 H820 AT&T handset.
Last week I decided to Update my device to Nougat Update manually using LGUP software to H820PR20a_00_1123.kdz file. But the phone never restarted after the update was completed successfully. Now it is only showing qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 port in Device manager.
It was the worst decision, now is there any way i can repair this issue. I have tried Qualcomm tools with LG G5 H850 ROM kdz file, also tried LG G5 LS992 tot files. But nothing is working out.
Help will be appreciated.

Sprint Samsung S8+ qualcomm mode

Hi my name is Miguel and im new to xda and i have a serious problem so i bought my phone and i was using it a mp3 and stuff since i live over seas i tried to region unlock it and in the process bam phone restarted and nothing but a black screen i plug in my phone to my charger nothing happens i plug it in to my pc something happens but not on the phone but on the pc it started downloading drivers i can tell you what the bubble said because i came to europe for vacation and im staying here for a while but a friend of mine said your phone lost his boot-up and it wont do anything unless you buy a medusabox and get all the files im buying the medusabox or whatever but where can i get the files from he told me you need 4 files with ones are they any ideas?
What were you doing to region unlock it?
If you hold down the bixby, power, and volume down buttons, can you get into download mode?
I too am in a similar situation. Not trying to highjack the thread at all however I believe it's what they call EDL (Emergency Download Mode). Mine is in Qdloader 9008 but cannot use QFIL to flash it so stuck with this brick for now. The files, I have some XMLs and supposedly the programer but they haven't worked for me at all.
Good luck, please advise if you ever fix it cause I have faith and hope its just a matter of time i can unbrick mine.

Im trying to use medusabox which is what people use to recognize qualcomm mode i just need the file to install the bootloader to get it into download mode any ideas if i can get them from another s8+
The file that ur looking for isn't apart of the stock firmware? BL,AP,CP,CSC, and PIT. I think the one ur looking for is BL for bootloader. You shouldn't need a box to recognize 9008, this is something ur phone should do automatically when u plug it in while hard bricked thought that all of the boxes were made to be able to flash ur device while in EDL mode?

This is very old but no all bricks dont leave in edl the devices also have groind points. All of us that tested the edl repair use qfil or the recovery script which i use on mine. You need a bit more than just the bootloader for repair. A whole barrage of sperate partitions as well as the programmer xml

LG W41 (LM-K610IM) dead bricked by my stupidity. Could it be somehow revived?

Greetings everyone. I didn’t find a thread for this specific phone model. So I am putting it up here. Few days back I decided to unlock the bootloader of my LG W41 (LM-K610IM) and upgrade to a custom ROM. So, I used fastboot mode to unlock the bootloader and up until now everything went like a dream. Problems started when I couldn't get a TWRP recovery for my specific model. I downloaded a generic one and first tried to push it to my recovery partition. That's when I learned my phone doesn't have a recovery partition. I don't know what came to me then I used fastboot flash command to flash the TWRP image to my boot partition. It was successful but my phone won't start after that. It was a softbrick. Only the LG logo started bootlooping. But the worse was still not over. In an attempt to restore my device I searched everywhere for the stock ROM as the official website is down, but couldn't find any. At last, I zeroed in on a similar device by the same manufacturer LG K52. It had the ditto hardware like LG W41. Even the model number was similar. So, I downloaded the KDZ file. Extracted the dz from the kdz and the boot.img from the dz using LG KDZ extractor . Made a scatter file using a Hovatek instruction and using WWR MTK tool and formatted my device using SP flash tool and flashed everything. Till now my device was detected by the Windows 11 PC as a LGE device. Anyways the SP tool successfully flashed everything but after that my won't turn on any more. It's total dead. It won't power on, pc won't recognize it. I have tried connecting using USB and all possible hardware key combinations. It is dead bricked I think. All because of my stupidity. Now my question is, does it have any hope left or should I throw it away and buy a new device? I am keeping my fingers crossed and hope to find a superhero
Edit 1: SP Flash tool doesn't see my device any more. I have all the specific drivers installed. From LG and from Mediatek.
Try LG Bridge or check lg-firmwares.com
or
buy/borrow second device and 1:1 clone with mtkclient
Thanks for the quick response, but I have already tried LG Bridge, LGUP . After soft brick LGUP was seeing device as "unknown at COM Port 9". After hard brick it doesn't see it any more. Actually my PC won't see the device anymore
The firmware is not available at LG-firmwares.com but I have requested for it there. Keeping fingers
you should be able to repair preloader from bootrom mode (BROM)

Okay let me ask and I will follow up. Thank you for the amazing guidance. Let's see if the poor device could be saved
you should poll lsusb in linux while trying to connect usb with both vol keys pressed. disconnect battery from pcb if possible to ensure phone is off.
