Short version: phone won't boot, won't go into download mode, won't properly do a factory reset (tries but doesn't do it), need help.
Finally bricked my phone after tampering with it too much.
I was on the stock KK rom released by LG themselves, no root. Reverted back to the 10c firmware, OTA to 10g, rooted and installed TWRP - flashed a Vodaphone Germany KK ROM for the LG G2 because I heard it had minimal bloatware and no bluetooth wakelock unlike the KK version I was on for T-Mobile (my carrier). It had the touchscreen issue which I never experienced before. Tried multiple times to go back to any T-Mobile LG G2 ROM using the LG Mobile Support Tool - no dice. Uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice. So I figured, oh hey, I probably need to use the Vodaphone Germany JB.kdz file, root that, install TWRP, then flash back to the T-Mobile KK version that I had before. Seemed fool proof in theory. Used the LG Tool to do such, it finished smoothly and now my phone won't boot. It won't do a factory reset (it enters the factory reset mode and it attempts to do one but just reboots). It won't enter download mode either. I think I'm screwed here. Any advice?
I found 2 guides, but to even begin to do the first one I need my phone to enter fastboot mode and I can't find out how to do that anywhere.
you say Won't go into download mode? What happens when you try?
It just shows the first screen as it tries to enter download mode, with the blue dots. The screen that comes after that doesn't happen anymore. It used to switch to it after a few seconds and then the LG Mobile Support Tool could connect to the phone, but it can't anymore.

The same thing is happening to my ls980. I'm certain it's hard bricked. Download mode shows on the screen but won't boot into firmware upgrade screen. No recovery at all. Os will not completely boot but does show on pc as LG modem. Think it's totally done for. Let me know if you make any progress because we both have the same problem.

Didn't work for me. Windows and Ubuntu didn't recognize my phone. I actually ended up ****ing up my laptop by overwriting a partition but that's on me.
Decided to take it in to a T-Mobile store and blame it on the Kit Kat OTA. It turns on, doesn't boot, doesn't factory reset, doesn't fully go into download mode - how are they gonna know I ****ed it up? I have basic insurance on my plan because the JUMP program is tied into it. So for a little over $10 a month I just gained access to a warranty exchange of my device which is set to ship overnight. Can't wait. Huge stress reliever. I advise you take your phone into your carrier store and do the same as I did.

Same is the case with me, my phone is dead for more than 20 days.

I was messing around with my phone getting trying to get the annoying "insufficient storage available" notification to go away, I was able to by going into the internal files then deleting the app data.
I rebooted my phone and now I'm stuck at the yellow sprint logo. I went to recovery mode did a factory reset then tried to wipe cashe and a dead android appears with a red exclamation point. Then it reboots and goes back to the yellow logo and freezes there.
Help!! I don't have a computer at the moment, and no clue what to do!

I won't have access to a computer for a couple weeks. Do you know how sprint would handle this issue? I don't have insurance but I just got the phone a month ago.
If you can get into stock recovery mode - Power+Home Button+Volume Up. Try a 'factory reset'.
If that doesn't work you can always take it in and say you what every you feel is okay (phone stopped booting or whatever) and see what they say.

You won't be able to do anything. Make sure to always keep a stable rom backed up so that in cases like these, you can at least use your phone.
Thanks. Everyone for the advice I will have to do that next time, I took it to sprint and they wanted $100 to fix it!! Heck no when I can do it myself. The lady said it was a software malfunction hehe if only she knew I had been hacking away lol
So I am going to do it myself, I'll just need to flash stock mf9 right??
Yo! Before bashing me. Yes, I have watched the n00b video, read the privacy, terms of use and so on. I have made my investigations. In fact I've been having this problem since Sunday and have been squeezing this Nexus 4 thread, Android's Central and other Google Site from top to bottom.
Problem: I have a Nexus 4 16 GB purchased directly from the Google Play Store. IMEI died. It became zero. Tried to root it (with fail attempts at connecting to the phone) so I could modify IMEI. Then phone had bootloop. Current situation: Bootloop, can't pass from the X logo.
What I have done:
- Flashed to Stock ROM using Fastboot manually, and with flash-all: 4.2.2 and 4.3. Current Result: Stuck at the Bootloop
- Left the device charging. Still bootloop (By leaving the phone charging, I managed to get out of the bootloop twice)
- Unlocked the bootloader
- Factory Reset.
- Wipe Drive Cache
- Used the LGNPST technique. (Strange, but it managed to boot with the Optimus Stock!... Unfortunately it was password locked :/)
- Pushed a different ROM (CyanogenMod) using ADB.
- Correctly installed all ADB drivers.
- Used Nexus Root Toolkit to return device back to stock to no avail
. Correctly installed the Unaked drivers for the phone.
- Tried locking and unlocking the boot loader.
- Installed Recovery Clockwork Mod.
- Read lots and lots of posts! Spent 10+ hours doing trial and error.
P.S: The problem started last Sunday, when Juice Defender tried re-enabling the data on my mobile. I saw the mark on the carrier signal didn't turn blue. I reset the phone, and then it started to have baseband problems and no connectivity. I investigated and saw that it was an IMEI problem (It returned me zero). Took it to my phone service and they couldn't fix it.
This phone is a month old, which I purchased with the 100$ price rebate at the Google's Play Store.
Note that I didn't touch the device in terms of Bootloader, custom ROMs, or did something to it aliened from the Play Store (which should have caused an IMEI problem beforehand).
I did some tweaks but never Root or something outside the Play Store (Apex Loader, SwiftKey, Live Backgrounds, eye candy stuff )
I appreciate all of your help and tips beforehand!
Oh, and one last thing. Please, if you would be kind enough to provide me a method for a DIY I’d be much obliged! I don’t live in the United States, I live in the Dominican Republic (Caribbean). Sending the device back to Google will cost me around 50 – 100$ (Half the amount of what the Nexus cost me).
Again, Thanks a million for future replies
looks like nobody knows what to do here, sorry to hear that bro.
Wow, you really have tried everything possible. Since it's only a month old, return to google seems the only way. Normally, IMEI issues are due to blocked phones, people not paying contracts or somehing like that but since you bought it off google I don't see why. The only thing other than what you have tried is flashing the radio again.

Yes! I've tried several several times. From manual fastboot to the Nexus Root Toolkit recovery option and I get hanged.
I decided that I'll be trying to see if by using some advanced recovery options I'll be able to do it.
By now I'll be tinkering a bit with Ubuntu OS to see if I can boot it at all.
By the way I did find by searching something called "Android HD super wiipe note" but I don't know how to install it... And I don't know if it will work either

Hello All,
I am quite new to the world of Android, but have searched and read up for multiple days on this site before finally posting my issue.
I have a GS4 that had been running stock with the MF3 OTA update. I finally decided to root and install safestrap to mess with a few custom roms. Everything went well. I was able to create a Rom Slot and load a custom rom for testing whilst keeping my stock in original form. NO issues what so ever. I used the Wicked Rom.... Eventually I decided that I would delete Rom Slot 1 and go back to stock. I followed directions to the T, deleted the slot and selected to boot from Stock. NO GO. This is where the horror begins:
Now, the phone boots up but I see the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo and it stays there...does not go back. I no longer see the SafeStrap recovery screen when booting up. --- I cannot even get into recovery on the phone any longer: it says recovery booting in blue and stays there.
I am able to get into Download mode to re-flash - but naturally none of the stock firmware files are loadable via Odin due to an error I keep getting NAND Flash! (Fail).
I finally decided to drive to Best Buy and asked the guy to flash my phone to stock there. He put the phone in download mode and used their multiflash tool which did not detect the phone and thus he could not move forward. The laptop did detect the phone at best buy, but their software did not and thus flashing did not occur.
I am looking for any and all advice to get this phone running without having to return it to Samsung....please and thanks in advance.
My apologies if my search did not yield a positive result and there is something out there....
Well There is no way to flash with Odin while on MF3, so that effort is completely fruitless at this time. Did the guy try a different USB port, cord or even restarting the computer he was using?
Can you get into your recovery to do a factory reset?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Best buy should be able to do it. I remember reading somewhere that someone had to go to 3 different stores before they found someone smart enough to do it.. Lol
Sent from my SGH-I337 using XDA Premium HD app
I cannot get into recovery at all, it just says recovery booting and sits there....recovery booting is displayed at the top left of the screen in blue.
The guy did not try a different port or reboot. When he plugged the phone in, in download mode, the computer did recognize the phone but his Samsung software did not.

Well he is an idiot for not troubleshooting his system. I have had the same exact thing happen with multiple different computers and phones. The computer detects the device correctly, but the program I needed to use would not. More often than anything a quick changing of ports or a reboot of the computer fixed it. I have had to completely wipe out the drivers a few times and reinstall them to get it to work. 9 times out of ten, it is not the phone that is the culprit, it is something else before the phone.

Well it seems the guy at my best buy was a TOOL! I took the phone in again today, had the battery pulled before I arrived - put it in download mode for him. Told him that Samsung tech support said he should reboot his pc. He did. Voila, reflashed to stock. Thank goodness....thank you guys for the advice.

Ok so i just bought a new lg g2 d801.
I unlocked it succesfully, then went on to root it succesfully using ioroot.
Then I tried installing twrp using freegee and it didnt work giving me comparable results to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50501346&postcount=867
so I went on to install it manually from terminal emulator (I installed the rogers version as suggested by another user here as this is exactly my situation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50502408&postcount=869
I followed this method for the code in terminal emulator:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilename.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
replacing "recoveryfilename" to the name of the rogers .img.
Now the phone just boots normally into the stock interface but it is all glitchy, no wifi, computer doesnt recognize it and then within about 1 minutes it boots into the lg logo with the "turning on" sound randomly and keeps doing that.
adb devices gives nothing. I cant browse the contents of it but it does seem to be interacting with the computer since it is saying "driver updating... etc."
Ahhhh not too sure what to do from here.
If anyone can guide me I will be infinitely grateful, so discouraged right now.
I just want to bring it back to stock, nothing valuable at all on it, I have had it for 4 hours.
U can do a factory reset and see how it goes. Go to settings > general> backup and reset> factory reset.

Ok so I have managed to succesfully reinstall the original exact videotron firmware that the phone was running just one day ago.
There is something else going on. Its still rebooting every 10 seconds, whenever there is a text input prompt the cursor goes when I press within the box but the keyboard never appears. Wifi is non functional. Imei is saying "null" now whichI find extremely worrying...
Anybody heard of this before? I would really love to understand what is happening to this seemingly incredibly fragile phone.
Im about ready to toss it in the trash.
It seems like it has a virus or something.
Every now and then during the short glimpses of functioning it undergoes, there is a small grey box that appears near the bottom that says error.
It is not recognising my sim card either.
Please somebody help me out, I am willing to pay for help at this point.
Much love,
Zach
Also, I can never close/lock the screen. If I close it, its a guaranteed reboot. Every signle time. so for the phone to work screen has to stay on. 24 hours ago it was showing absolutely no signs of any of this
So for some reason while working today my phone died and when I went to turn it on it went to TWRP recovery and wouldnt leave it no matter how many times I tried rebooting it. And of course to top it off I cant get it into to download mode to revert to stock and start over. When I hold the volume up and plug it in, again it goes straight to TWRP. Need some help please.
EDIT: In case anyone is having the same problem I had, I fixed it by following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 and had to use the terminal command inside of twrp.
Then it put my phone into a bootloop but I was able to enter download mode then so I followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663369 to restore phone to factory. Hope this doenst happen to anyone but in case, there's how I fixed mine!
