Hey guys,
The inevitable has happened: I've finally bricked a device that I can't seem to find the solution to online. Here's what happened:
1. When I got the phone a little over a week ago, I accidentally "broke" the recovery by trying to install CWM through Rom Manager. Turns out that's not something you generally want to do. Oops.
2. I got lazy and put off restoring the stock recovery, instead choosing to deal with the stock launcher.
3. Today, while dealing with the 50th pop-up for the OTA update, I accidentally pressed "Install Now" instead of "Install Later"
Now, when it boots, it briefly shows the LG logo before displaying an all-black screen with small white text reading:
[730] Fastboot mode started
[780] udc_start()
I get a little bit more text when I plug it into my PC. I've been trying to fix it for the past three hours - I've tried countless solutions, but nothing seems to work.
Can anyone out there give me some advice? I'd greatly appreciate it.
Have you tried to use the lg flash tool?

When I opened the Flash tool, it prompted me for a Username and Password, something I didn't have.

Will this work even though I don't have a recovery? The instructions I found (these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960 ) definitely sound as though they were created with a working phone, and some of the instructions linked still imply they have TWRP.
Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it. I feel like I can get this working, it's just going to take some time (something I don't have a lot of, as I'll be camping all weekend).

Lol.. Make sure you get that dll that was mentioned earlier because that's your crack to make the tool work.. If you get a fail but your phone boots up and go through settings don't worry about it it's good.. I know a lot of people were having the fail reset error

So... I followed the guide I posted earlier. It talks about entering download mode, which I'm not able to do, and my phone isn't seen in Device Manager as "LGE AndroidNet for VZW..." (Oddly, it's seen as a "SAMSUNG Android Phone," and under that is "USB Modem Phone ADB port").
When I unplugged and replugged the phone back in, trying to enter download mode even though I haven't been successful with that, nothing happened. LG Flash says it's ready, but nothing activated.
Help??
When it says it's ready unplug it while in download mode and plug it back in.. Make sure you have the ports set right

But I can't enter download mode. If I power off the phone it just brings me straight back to Fastboot.

After 6+ hours of work, I finally have my phone up and running again. Thank you so, so much antawnm. You're awesome for helping me through this. Though that link provided wasn't perfect (it was for the Korean model) it provided me with enough clues to combine it with everything else you sent me and some files I found in a directory (especially the recovery.img file for the VZW LG G2) to get back right to where I was.
The funniest part was, after the phone rebooted itself and I got back to my home screen, the phone informed me that my software update was unsuccessful. I genuinely laughed.
Thanks again.
I have the Lg g2 D800 varient, and tonight I got an update for 15.4mb, that pushed without my permission, and now my screen is on a black screen, upon rebooting after said update was installed. I am rooted, but no plans to update to 4.4, it just did it without consent..
Help?
Edit:
Stuck on a bootloop, the LG logo flashes for a second, then its a lighted black screen. I plug my phone inot the pc, and 20 windows popup asking If I want to format G drive.
No twrp installed.

you can try this but you need Ubuntu and I'm not exactly sure it will work(also you need to find the correct files for your model), also if your phone is under warranty you can try taking it to att store and telling them update killed your phone but of course don't mention anything about root

okay now you have to be quick when you do this to get into download mode...
plug your usb into your phone and have it hanging in the usb port in the computer or plug.
now hold the power button until it turns off.
quickly plug in the port/plug and hold the up button.
you have to do it really quickly. took me a few tries.
once in download mode restore to factory whichever image you choose.
ive had this done a couple times to my phone and it does work if you act quickly.
Have you tried this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142

First link should work for you. I'm on D802, but had exactly the same problem and this solved it completly.
But be careful while doing it, it's really easy to mess things up.

Just get a virtual machine, it does the job just fine.
I did it with VirtualBox and Ubuntu. And make sure, you disable auto mount usb in ubuntu to prevent opening the 20 "partition" windows.

Yes i used the power+volume up button combination and it went in download mode, than the screen changed and showed "Firmware update" beneath it: "Do not unplug the USB connection until the prcess is complete." Is this the donwload mode?
The link with the recovery back to stock ROM seems complicated with lot of steps. Can i instead go for a google edition rom (such as EHNDROIX V) instead of the stock ROM at this stage?

Rooting worked, checked it afterwards with an root check app.
Also installed the AutoRec successfully with the apk file, i did run it after inszallation and everything. But i want to test it whether it is there, how can i check it? I held the power+down keys but its an white screen: "Factory hard reset" below it: "Permanently Erase user Data & Reset settings?" and below this: "Press power key to confirm, and any other key to cancel". Seems not like recovery with a lot of options touch buttons and things. How can i check for correct installation of the AutoRec?

Here, guys. Linking to a thread from a Chinese forum.
And it's not a troll thread! I decided to be brave and flash it! Yayyy! I now have Lollipop on my G3 F400K version but WiFi doesn't turn on as of now. And no root.
Shall use it for the better part of the day and post here.
http://www.cnanzhi.com/romdetail/4919
I cannot understand how to use that... can u help me?
It's pretty straightforward.. Download the three files in the link provided above and flash them from your custom recovery.
Use Google translate for every link.
I've got this on my phone since the last 5 hours and I haven't used it much for bug testing. But the phone works perfectly and the software is a daily driver for sure!
Did you flash modem? Is WiFi working well?
Didn't flash any extra modem. Wifi not turning on. See the first post.
That's only bug I see as of now.
I think modem can help that problem... I ll try. I hope this file won't wreck my recovery partition as 19c did...
And sorry for my bad English

is it really for F400K ? I dont think that, it look like a ported from D855
I also saw a ported package from F400S at http://www.fshare.vn/file/1CMRFVXM4A/ (I flashed and it worked - 1 week ago - I back to stock 4.4.2 to wait for OTA)
where did you get that link can u share the forums?

I think you're screwed since you're running the new bootloader (or kernel, not sure) you can't downgrade, and since there isn't lollipop for f400k you need to wait

Have you tried a "adb reboot recovery"? My f400k on cloudy won't enter bump recovery with any of the usual start up sequences I have found. The only way I can do it is with reboot to recovery on the restart menu or "adb reboot recovery" maybe yours is the same?
Mine boots into stock recovery.
I don't even have root.
Kdz method doesn't work because Flash toll recognizes the phone has a d855.
Flashing a d855 dll is suicide.

Heyy mine is like yours, I can't enter recovery when on boot. But can enter with a app or menu (tweakbox).
How do I fix this? I am afraid of bootloops and want to get into recovery when I get one.

Heyy mine is like yours, I can't enter recovery when on boot. But can enter with a app or menu (tweakbox).

Please let me know if you find out.
I asked the super helpful guys in the bump IRC chat room but no luck. I am going to be super careful about what I flash until a method is found.
I was just trying to install the 9.0.6 update manually following the instructions in the thread for it here on xda and it wouldn't work. I uninstalled magisk and restored images through magisk manager as the directions stated to do. I couldn't get the update to show in the local upgrade section under system update so decided to reboot to see if that would fix it but now my phone will not boot. It goes to a screen that says my device is corrupt and won't go past that. It says to hit the power button to continue but that just makes it boot back to that screen and if I just wait the phone shuts off.
Any help is appreciated.
(UPDATE) Thanks for the help guys. I got the phone booting again by flashing the 9.0.6 ROM in fastboot. I'm still getting the "device is corrupt" message and have to hit the power button twice to get it to boot so if anyone knows a fix for this I would appreciate it. At least I can use the phone now.

You could try to use msm download tool linked above or flash the full rom again since you can get into fastboot. I'd prob try that before the msm tool though.

do you have any instructions on how to go about flashing a rom in fastboot? I've never done it before.

Thanks. I got that part and was able to get my phone booting again but I still get the corrupt device message when I start the phone. Wish I knew how to get rid of it. IS there any return to full stock methods that also locked the bootloader and restore all partitions to stock? That is the only thing I can think of that might work.

Someone say that wiping all with stock recovery solved, but device work fine also whit that message, otherwise you can try MSM Download Tool, it will restore all stock to 9.0.5 with locked bootloader.

Use the MSMDownloadTool for the international version, it's the only way to bypass the verity trigger, it will restore the device to full stock as if you never unlocked the bootloader to begin with.

Thanks guys. I will try this out in the future. For now I'm just going to ride with what I got since I don't feel like setting my phone up again. I don't reboot much so it shouldn't bother me too bad. I guess it's good I learned something new.
