[Q] How to unbrick soft bricked LG G2 LS980ZVA ?

I was rooted and messed up some system file and now my phone is soft bricked.

Will this work ? http://www.rwilco12.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=96 I can enter download mode and do factory reset but need to know if this way will work on my device. this one is a sprint phone.

if you messed up the system files, you will need to re-flash stock to fix it.
all the files and guidance you need can be found here.

I tried the link you gave earlier but the program used uses a kdz file. I didn't know which one to use. What are all the files needed on the link you gave ? Which KDZ files are used for each different phone companies of LG G2 ?
I chose to use the download from the link I showed and fixed it from the "LG G2 Stock" folder download by following the instructions.
The link that I posted is the one for Sprint ZV7. Using that it unbricks it and then had to update software from ZV7 to ZV8 to ZVA to ZVC to ZVD. Not it's all updated.

i dont understand the problem.
there is a "sprint" directory on the downloads page with only sprint files there (including 3 of the builds you mentioned).

On the flash tool it says to select a kdz file. On the firmware link it shows different kdz files but which one is suppose to be used if it is ?
In the Sprint directory (home > Xda > LG G2 > Stock > Sprint) it shows a .dll file and some zip files. I looked at one zip file and it don't have a kdz file. Is that needed to use that flash tool ?

[Completed] Half Dead LG G2, No use of touch, imei, network

I have been stuck for over a month now and now I am forced to make this thread with the full story:
I bought an LG G2 D802. A few months later I updated it through the LG software update tool. This thing killed my phone. It installed lollipop and I then had these issues:
[1]no imei.
[2]no baseband.(FIXED)
[3]touch is not working properly. It is haywire. It does not respond properly at all and the phone is unusable
[4]no sim usage as no IMEI.
[5] ONLY 16 gb showing as memory available. (FIXED)
I did this. Using OTG to use my phone, I flashed stock d802 ROM (kitkat). This got me to Stock ROM but phone was boot looping. I factory resetted and it started up okay. I then found a way to fix the 16 gb issue by using a droid view guide called : "Your 32GB LG G2 Shows only 16GB Storage Space? Here’s How to Fix the Issue! " This fixed my 16 gb issue. But everything else same... Then I followed a guide to fix ESN but it demanded that the phone be rooted. So I rooted and installed TWRP. But I was not able to fix IMEI. So I then gave up I searched my issue extensively and found a thread (ON XDA) which i cant post here... But its name is: "Strange touch problem after upgrading my lg g2". There I read of other people who had the same issues. This basically happens to refurbished handsets, apparently. There where no proper fixes there. None of the people where able to fix their phones.
Some guy said that check your motherboard and install the software according to the motherboard. I opened the board and found it to be a motherboard of LG D801. No problem. I downloaded D801 software and tried installing with kdz method but it failed. And now so has the tot method. I have downloaded over 20 gbs of different software and roms. ALl of these roms where completely downloaded!! Please help me here...
Its not me only: These threads are after the same issue!!:
1. Name is: (on XDA) "LG G2 No IMEI, Touch not Responding After Update" (One person)
2. Name is: (on XDA) "Strange touch problem after upgrading my lg g2" (MULTIPLE people withe SAME issue)
I am not an advanced android guy but I can follow directions and I have adb, root, twrp, qpst set up.

Can you be more specific on the error when using KDZ and TOT? Please post a screenshot.

The kdz method just fails at 2%. But the tot method works. I installed jellybean to see if that fixed the problem But no go. Still have no touch screen and no IMEI. The major problem right now is touch screen ONLY!

zhzhou said:
Which TOT did you install? D801 or D802? I think it should be D801 because it matches your motherboard.

I agree that I should install tot of d801 . But the install fails. I tried using the LG_UP 974 dll file but that does not work too! The error is alwasys wrong model number. The TOT method works for d802 roms.
I am wondering. Should I flash a kernel of d801?

hyelton said:
Well that can happen if you flashed the WRONG model for your phone, and youd need to flash the correct model to fix it.
or 2 its an hardware issue.

Hyelten some help would be dearly loved!
zhzhou said:
You should install the D801 TOT. Here's how to do it.
1) Download D801 TOT
2) Download HxD hex editor
3) Open D801 TOT in HxD
4) Find first instance of "D801" and change to "D802"
5) Save new TOT file
6) Open Flashtool and flash the modified D801 TOT that you just created (use the LG_UP974.dll)
This should work to get D801 firmware onto your device.

I did what you said and changed the first instance to d802. Now a new error dialog appears saying: "failed previousload()"

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Your devices forum is the best place to ask for help, they are the experts on your device. Start with this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/lg-g2-sticky-roll-thread-t3123148 and follow the go back to stock. Also see this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2

zhzhou said:
It's unlikely you'll hard brick the phone. You've already put the D802 firmware on a board that you've confirmed is D801.
I had wrong firmware and subsequently lost the IMEI. I flashed the right one firmware (after modifying TOT because of model mismatch error), and the IMEI came back.
Isn't your phone pretty much useless already? I think the steps I described above is pretty low risk. You can find the answer pretty quickly by just doing it

[Completed] Unbrick LG G3 Beat D723

Quite recently i recovered my Beat when i managed to soft brick it and it just booted into fastboot mode or whatever you call it (im a newbie).after days of searching the web i managed to find something called LG Flash Tool from which you can flash a .kdz file which i think is a firmware file .You can find how to use the LG Flash Tool from here Mod Edit .You need to download the firmware file and i downloaded it from here Mod Edit (im guessing it works on other models as well such as the D722 or the D724).
Once downloaded you need to open the LG Flash Tool and select the firmware file you downloaded and select either of the two flash options (normal being for the one with your data being recovered and Csu the one with your device being wiped ) i did the csu as i had already messed my device up .I hope you find help from this thread and manage to recover your beat and best of luck to you all.

Greeting,
XDA Assist is not the correct section to post this in.
Please re-post in the device specific forum.
Thread closed.
Thanks,
Sloth

[Petition] Sprint's LG Gflex 2 LS996ZV9 KDZ, please! Someone share it :(

Hello guys!
Where can I download the LS996ZV9 for the Gflex 2 (Sprint)? I can't find a KDZ nor TOT
I hope someone could upload a KDZ to flash and have the lattest update. My Gflex 2 is currently on LS996ZV5.
I'm outside the US so I can't get the update from Sprint.
Please help
- Leonardo

I am also outside the United States and am interested in the TOT or KDZ files.

Contact tung kick on Facebook he has the tot!!

What does outside the US have to do with this? (excuse my ignorance) I am inside the US and am wondering how to obtain the TOT. I was looking awhile ago and couldn't find it...

check this thread. i didnt tried yet.

Those are the stock .img system files, not full installable ROMs which only come in KDZ or TOT format. To use one of those files from that thread you just linked to you already have to have a working phone running a stock ROM (for the most part), then copy the system.img file (rooted or not) to the device's internal storage, then use the Send_Command.exe "trick" when the phone is in bootloader mode (phone off, press and hold Volume Up while attaching the USB cable to a running PC with the appropriate LG drivers installed) to pass on a dd command to write the img file to the system partition.
Not an easy thing altogether and nothing like just flashing a KDZ or TOT and being done with it either.
The OP and many of us, myself included, are still hoping to find a full ZV9 KDZ or TOT file because there doesn't seem to be one so far. We have a ZV8 TOT file (but no KDZ that I know of) and now that ZVB is out there's the expectation that we'll (hopefully) soon possibly finding a ZVB KDZ or TOT file which would be pretty damned awesome but I'm not putting too much faith in that happening.
Sure would be awesome to have a ZVB KDZ/TOT right about now however.

LG G7 KDZ file

Hey everyone!
I captured the initial KDZ for the G7, and it's linked below. I can't seem to extract anything from it using the usual tools, however -- it just errors out.
G710TM10d_00_TMO_US_OP_0525.kdz
Also, fastboot flashing unlock_critical seems to work, kinda. No warning dialog, immediate reboot and userdata wipe without nag screen. Once done, however, getvars still says locked and still can't flash anything.

That format is too big, trouble you first unpack and pass it to Google Drive Thank you, I want the wallpaper inside

Any chance you can you point me to the directions you followed to pull the KDZ image?

Please upload it to "Google Drive". This link cannot be used in China.

LG Up is a software suite capable of quite a bit..unfortunatly not if not used correctly..this is a easy phone to customize..however..it's a bit of a handful if it's screwed up..
Start by finding a thread in the forum..try the V10. That used to have a lot of useful how to guides.

G710TM10d_00_TMO_US_OP_0525.kdz
This is for the T-Mobile version of the G7 ThinQ for the US running Oreo Production that was released on May 25th.
To help expand the list of KDZ files for this model, please explain how you accessed this file? Did you run WireShark and follow the packet flow then rebuild the file from the packets? Are you a T-Mobile tech???

I have a new in the box G7 tmobile. I don't know how to pull a kdz from it. Anyone know of a guide? Is there a dll for lgup for the G7 yet?

Still searching for a System DUMP here. Anyone?

Have you tried extracting the TMOUS dz file ? I did replace the LGUPc.dll with your version but dz extract fails.

no , it seems like the way a dz file works changes a bit , i got the dll out of the 10b kdz , and the boot.img dump etc ive used for twrp etc from autoprime, so you cant exztract the dz for now unless you update the tools yourself

You need new LGUP 1.15 or higher to successfully flash and/or advanced dump new devices like LG G7 or LG V35...
still not leaked

Do u have root guys?

The European version does since LG provided a bootloader unlock as well as the Italian carrier TIM mobile but as for US variants no dice
