[Q] What did autorec do to my phone?!?

Hi all,
Let me try to walk you through everything that I've done to try and get some help here.
I have an lg g2 sprint (lg-ls980)
1. When I got it I first upgraded to android 4.4.2
2. Then I rooted using stump root
3. I installed xposed and a few xposed modules....I then decided Id rather have a different rom, so
4. I used autorec (which to my understanding changed my kernel in order to workaround boot loader and install twrp? is that accurate?)
5. Booted to twrp, wiped data and installed cyanogenmod and gapps
After this I get stuck and can't boot past the lg logo, so I booted back to recovery and restored my backup. So I did the same and tried pacrom this time with the same results.
I then decided that if I'm going to be stuck with stock rom I at least want my knock on back, so I flashed the patched kernel and same thing- stuck at lg logo....
I know I downloaded the correct zip files and placed them on the root, and always wiped before flashing.
Then I went into download mode on the lg support tool to try to get back to factory, but it says my firmware and recovery is up to date. The odd thing is that the lg support tool shows my phone as ls740 rather than ls980... is this because of something that autorec changed? Do I need to download zip files for ls740 instead? So confused..
About phone in my g2s settings shows android version 4.4.2 and kernel version 3.4.0
Anyways, if anyone could help me to successfully get one of these roms to flash and get back to the kernel that supports the knock code I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!

About flashing TWRP on the LG G2
This is a reply to the last post in the LG/TWRP post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670&page=116
And specifically, I was about to ask the same question as "ctowne", about the lack of loki_flash in the loki package pointed in the instruction page.
I'm really stuck here, because I already "soft bricked" my phone (rooted LG G2 D802 international) in two different states that required a complete flash and wipe with the originale LG ROM and tool. And one of these was caused by the AutoRec tool, which apparently doesn't work for lot of people and could lead to bootloops.
So, before trying anything I'd like to be sure I'm doing the right thing, and more importantly, that I have the complete instructions to do it.
To sum it up:
-according to the thread, I need the loki package and the TWRP package, but there is no loki_flash inside the actual loki package
-but there's one inside the last TWRP package! Should I use this one?
-also, is not clear where I need to move all the files to make everything works
Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you downloaded the correct version of autorec? I have a VS980 and autorec worked perfectly....even after updating to the latest version (26A), after which I flash TWRP 2.8.0.1 via recovery (which autorec installs 2.7.0.0).

Apparently something went wrong with my first install. I tried again and the AutoRec flash went OK!
BTW, how do you update TWRP? Just flashing the zip via recovery and nothing else?

Yes. Have whatever version of TWRP on your phone and flash it. Make sure to reboot recovery and it will show the current version flashed.

[Q] LG G2 running CM12, no recovery or download mode, need help.

Hi guys,
I attempted to restore my G2 (D802 international 32GB) back to the stock kitkat firmware from Cyanogen Mod 12. While attempting the restore, the lg support tool gave me an error saying it had failed, however when I disconnected the device it was apparently still doing something.
I now am at a stage where I get no recovery, download, or fastboot mode, etc, however my device is connecting to my PC as qhsusb_bulk in device manager. I followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 in order to help remedy the issue, however it didn't work. I'm guessing it could have something to do with the fact that I had CM12 rather than the stock firmware of which I extracted the necessary files for my device (I extracted the files from an IMEI number provided KDZ) in place of the files provided on the thread.
Could someone help point me in the right direction? Do I need the image files from CM12, or the stock images despite the device running CM12 before hand? am I following the right process?
Thank you very much in advance for any help anyone can provide, I really appreciate it!
PS. Sorry if this has been covered before, I just haven't been able to find anything else.

Were you able to find out what the problem was? I am on CM12 myself on my G2 D802. Got some problems with TWRP. It wouldnt restore backups, and had problems with flashing ROMs ang gapps so I flashed CWM with flashify and now when I try to reboot to recovery I just get the LG logo and boot verification issue... Would really appreciate if you could share your solution if you were able to find one

Try this:
Restore v20 to 100% Stock (!!even for bricked devices!!)

You need to put your phone in download mode and flash a stock firmware. Follow the link @myisn has mentioned. That should work just fine for you.

[ROM] H901 (T-Mobile) v30d TWRP flashable zip

This is the latest Nougat update that was released on 06/11/2018. It does not flash recovery or laf. If you must have laf, there is an additional zip to flash.
It is still ARB 2, so you can flash back to any version of Nougat.
I have removed the recovery-from-boot.p file from system so that recovery doesn't get overwritten, but that is the only change that was made -- this is not a debloated ROM.
Please let me know if you have any problems.
ROM download: h901_v30d.zip
OK, now for my spiel on laf...
You only need to install the laf zip if you have installed TWRP on laf in addition to recovery, and you would like download mode back.
I *HIGHLY* recommend that you keep TWRP on both recovery and laf. You will never be in a situation where download mode would help you, but TWRP couldn't.
You CAN be in a situation where TWRP could have helped you, but you are just stuck with download mode.
laf download: h901_laf.zip

Thanks for the update. I was very quick! I wanted to report that when flashing it did not show each file flashing like it usually does, it just keeps saying " please wait" , and then it finishes and on to the next zip which was the root file flash, that acted normally. I'm grateful Brian! Thanks

I'll take a look, I am sure I messed up a progress meter.
Thanks,
-- Brian

woohoo!

thank you man! it works like a charm. no problem at all. .
:highfive:

Does it matter what version I'm coming from? Receiving a refurbished phone tomorrow that is supposed to be on LP but could be MM or even Nougat. I want to install TWRP like I did on my original phone (MB died) then upgrade to this.

Nope, doesn't matter. Once you get TWRP on your phone, you can flash this and go straight to the latest.

Does anyone have a link to the actual kdz?
I re-locked the phone trying to fix a grayed out "Enable OEM unlock" switch that was turned off in the developers options and in the process of locking the bootloader, it is unable to boot up again but I can still get into fastboot and download modes.
I know how to restore the phone through LGUP, just need the kdz, either 30c or 30d would work, thanks.

For some reason it seems that flashing this relocked the bootloader and bricked the device. Getting the message "Your device is corrupt. It cannot be trusted"
Was on 5.1.1 and it's my wife's phone. Downloaded the zip and Magisk and rebooted into TWRP. Flashed and now just about bricked. Now to try and see if I can unbrick the phone.
