Hello, I ran into a problematic brick on my L5...nothing seems to work to unbrick it.
I followed the guides step by step using the KDZ updater and the appropriate firmware for my country, but it doesn't work.
How I bricked it:
I had CM10 installed and perfectly running for a month, so today I decided to attempt an overclock to speed the device up a bit.
So, I downloaded and installed the modded kernel, flashed it using CWM and rebooted the device. After that, the device just keep booting up, showing the LG logo and then a black screen.
Now, after trying to flash the old firmware after going into download mode it just stops on the LG logo with the flare (sun ray effect) spinning around the logo all the time...It's been like that for almost 30 minutes now. I attempted re-flashing it 3 times but nothing seems to work.
What do I do?
Thank you in advance.
It's bootloop. When I had L5 I had the same problem after flashing bricked phone via KDZ.
Do hard reset with key combination. It worked for me. Phone will boot up few minutes.

nop, it's like the device is dead,
Have you tried it:
Hold together volumn (-) + home button, then turn the power on
sorry for the delay, The phone was dead so I send it to the warranty and they send it to LG and then returned working so I just had to reroot it and update it again
so there is no solution to this brick???

This is what I get when I connect the phone by USB.
I just cant get into emergency, DIAG or emergency CS
KDZ the phone connects and then I get a message afterwards PHONE NOT FOUND.
everytime I install the drivers by LG support tool, it keeps giving me the option to install the driver, like I havent done it a hundred times over.
I think there should be a driver somewhere that can be installed but the only people that have this driver are LG tech's. So they can bill you after
send the phone in cause you rooted it. So the one billion dollar question is witch hero will find a way to unbrick this device. We only need a way
to get a driver to install and we are home free. Or maybe the only other option is throwing the phone for sale on internet for spare parts
HELP PLEASE HELP find a way to unbrick this phone. Believe me I flashed and bricked alot of different phones and there was a way out but in
with this phone it seems impossible!!
And there is no mode to put it in in because te volume buttons don't do crap, the home button also, the only time that the phone does show up is when windows tells me it has an unknown device that I for the love of god can't find a driver for. I tried SDK, the LG drivers, but no dice
Did you try emergency mode? (volume up + volume down + power button)
If not, see if you can enter it and then flashing your stock firmware with Software update [KDZ] 1.0.4.4 (KDZ-Flasher).
It started out where i could only boot into fast boot and NOTHING else, but I found this tutorial where i would erase and replace all the image files and put the g2 in a sort of testing mode. So i did it and when i booted it up....it had the LG logo and the lg logo with a security error....This kept on going for a while until i did a factory hard reset and now it just does it once and then turns off. The only other thing i can seem to boot into is download mode because when i try the tot method it has this error saying CrossDL [D802] to [D800]. And so i try another method which required a kzd file, there are kzd files for everything but the d800, which is what i happened to have. I try for an hour looking for one with no luck. I try the LG mobile support tool but it goes through the first part and just gets stuck on the second part and doesn't even have a loading bar, it just says so not unplug USB. Im really getting frustrated and can find any way to make it work. PLEASE HELP!
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.

Hey Guys,
Hoping someone can help me out here. I've got a friend's LG G2 and I'm trying to help him get it working. When I first got the device, it just booted to a black screen and when plugged into Ubuntu, it would show 15 or so drives that were unable to mount. I followed a guide to fix through Ubuntu and eventually got it to boot to where it would show a black screen with small white text indicating it was in fastboot mode. In fastboot mode, I followed this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEqEE9Qb8Sk and eventually got it to boot showing the LG Screen. I am able to get it into Download Mode and Recovery mode (but performing the hard reset doesn't work, as when the Android Man screen loads up with the progress bar underneath it stays on the screen for about 15 seconds before restarting and staying at the LG logo screen. No matter which Tot file for the D800 I flash through LG Flash Tool, it fails after about 3 seconds stating Cross DL (850) to (800). He had tried to use an G3 Rom on the device, which is what bricked it in the first place. I've noticed that the device is showing a blank IMEI in the flash tool as well. I've also tried using the DLL posted in @hyelton 's guide (LGUP_8974.dll) and it still gives me that same error.
Hoping someone here might have an idea of what I can try next to get this thing working again.
Thanks!
Mark
Fixed
All right guys. After much painstaking searching, I've finally found a solution, thanks to THIS REDDIT THREAD. I used a hex editor to modify the first line mentioning "D800" in the TOT file that is provided along with the link to the YouTube video in my OP, changing it to "D850." I used Hex Editor Neo to do this. This should work with any LG G2 that has had incorrect firmware flashed on it when you are getting an error of CrossDL from the LG Flash Tool.
While trying to install custom recovery through autorec my LG G2 sold as D802 and infact an LS980 got bricked and showing white pixelated lines and black screen.
- No recovery mode
-No download mode shown on screen
- No fastboot mode shown on screen
-Phone shows up as unspecified android device on windows 10 and connected through Marshall London Bootloader Interface
-Phone switches off and on while pressing power key, rest not known
-Flashtool doesn't recognize any device.
-command prompt in fastboot tool can erase data on the phone, but can't flash any img files
I've searched and read various forms and articles through internet. no one has found any proper solution though some people claims that hex code editing or flashing a partition and a tot file through fastboot mode may solve the issue and tried a few of them. No positive sign till now, I'm r trying out the fastboot method right now, But I'm not sure whether my phone is switching into fastboot mode or not
Can some one please guide me to get the partition file (laf.img) for LS980. ??????????
And if someone can share some serious input on this problem, it'll be really useful for a lot of users includng me.
Or even suggest some methods for trying out.
whenever i got stuck with this sort of errors i used to find my way out using reading tutorials and forums on xda. But this time i cant find a way out.

Same issue
I have the same story with my LG G2 D802 any luck?
I have the same issue... Please give updates on your progress
I have Got The Same Issue.....no COM port so as to flash tot, i cant also flash using flash tools. Somebody Help
Same here, you guys burn your G2?
Looks like I'm a bit late for the party. Well i ended up my lg g2 ls980 (sold as d802) in the same condition. I fixed it by booting into qhsusb_bulk mode by shorting the capacitors and using srktool. Now my phone can boot into download mode!
(Note: this method only works if your phone shows up as qhsusb_bulk and not qdloader or something like that)
I own an LG D290n . I had to do a factory restore via buttons after a Google update bug. It was crashing some Google service and couldn't do anything to fix it. Strangely neither factory restore worked giving me the same exactly error. I finally downloaded the latest Rom I could find I think it was 4.4.2. I pushed it using official Lg Utility from fino page and worked like it should be just fine. After about 2 months the problems continued , the phone stucked at boot with the known pink message dbi error demigod crush etc unfortunately I didn't took a photo. After reading a lot found a guide for unbricking my phone. UNTIL THEN couldn't go into dl mode or anything except factory reset giving me the same error. After the guide using qfil the phone stayed black . Boarddiag passes ap but not emmc. The phone is stuck on 9008 or if I play a little in diagnostic 9006. I played with battery and cable only , the buttons don't work tried vol up . Any guy want my teamviewer to check? Thank you in advance
