Bricked | No Download Mode | Please help!

Hi
I have a LG G2 running CM12 which I just tried to encrypt (about to sell it). For some reason though the encryption failed, which I've never seen before. I had full battery and the charger connected.
Anyway, it presented me with the only option of resetting the phone. I clicked yes and now I'm in some sort of bootloop. The "teamwin"-logo for TWRP is presented on the screen for a couple of seconds, before it goes black for one second and then back to the teamwin-logo etc.
I don't care about the data, but how can I fix the phone back to CM12? Please help me!
See Edited post below

I managed to get it back to stock with LG Flashtool, rooted it and installed TWRP using AutoRec. Booted in recovery mode and got an error:
"assert failed: run_program("/system/bin/loki.sh") == 0
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/usb_otg/cm12-20150612-NIGHTLY-d802.zip
Error flashing zip
After this I can't boot into the phone, it says "Security error" under the LG logo. After this happened I went through the same process with LG Flashtool and tried again, unfortunately with the exact same result. I've tried different ROMs aswell. Can someone please help me sort this out?

After hours of trying I finally sorted it out. If anyone runs into the same problem this helped me:
- Flash a stock KitKat-ROM using LG Flashtool
- Root using LG OneClickRoot
- Download AutoRec for Kitkat-apk from the web (not available in Play Store anymore)
- Run AutoRec for Kitkat and let it install TWRP
- Download and flash some CM11-ROM
- Check to see that all seems fine
- Download and flash the CM12-ROM you want + gapps
- Hopefully you'll run CM12 just fine again
That did it for me, not sure that every step is essential but might as well try it.

Okay... My phone was working just fine, and I thought it was just fine so I didn't think about it when I performed a factory reset through the IU. I shouldn't have done that...
The problems came back, first the twrp-bootloop so I tried to flash the kdz again. That failed and after that I no longer can access download mode. What happens when I try to is that the LG logo shows as it should, but then instead of going into download mode it takes a little longer, and then the phone opens up like 20 drive letters on my computer. One of them contains files in a folder called "image".
Am I 100% ****ed? I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out with this one!

LG L5 E610 - Strange issue

Hello guys.
I have an LG L5 (E610) that is having a very strange behavior.
It started by throwing a lot of ANR with different applications (Google Play Store, Play Services, Facebook, and others).
So, seeing this, I decided to do a factory reset. After reboot, what is my surprise that I see everything as I had before. All the applications, all the data, everything.
With this, I tried almost everything at the moment. And by saying that, I mean:
- Tried to follow the key combination for the recovery, it goes to recovery, I see the Android and some progress bar moving, but after the reboot, the system remains with no change;
- When on the system, I uninstall applications, they seem to be uninstalled, but after a reboot all the applications are back.
- Tried to root the phone with more than one process, no success. I cannot install any application. Not via play store, not via adb install, there is no way;
- Tried to flash a recovery img, to try to clean cache partition from there, no luck. From Fastboot it says everything went well, but when I reboot, everything is the same;
- In fastboot, I tried to erase cache and userdate partitions, no luck. When I try, i have a message saying "FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))". This happens with all the partitions. I even tried to erase the system partition, and I have the same response. Strange thing is that after this error, the phone reboots and goes directly to the system;
- Tried with KDZ images and tools to install different versions, I receive errors during the deployment and at the end the phone reboots. Again, the same system is installed as before. No changes.
As of now, I was trying to understand if there is any problem with the internal flash system. Maybe it is corrupted and is causing all these issues.
The thing is, as the phone is not rooted, I cannot launch a e2fsck to the maybe faulty mmcblk0pXX
The phone has a stock ROM based on Android 4.0.3 (build IML74K / LG-E610-V10e-JUN-30-2012)
I am out of ideas, I've looked around here at XDA, Google and I have no other ideas to try.
Does anyone have another suggestion?
Is there something else I can do to try to make the phone live again?
Any help someone can provide will be very much appreciated..

Now this is what I call a coincidence.
About 2 years ago, a friend of mine asked me for help with her E610. Almost all actions were giving us ANRs. Whatever you do, i.e. unsinstall, install, change, delete... after reboot/reset were all there, even notifications! Tried KDZ updater, and, while the update was OK without signs of errors or so, after reboot - nothing, everything was like before. After trying to find a solutions by hundreds of ways, with adb and fastboot commands (all partitions&folders were locked, no read, no write, and you can't see any file, tried root to no avail), L5 got bricked. She already got a new phone and this LG was laying there without any use.
Three days ago I decided to try again, with no hope tbh No screen, no vibration, nothing, apparently dead. But, I could install Qualcomm drivers and my Windows can see it in download mode. I think that the only way is to flash the phone with LGFlashTool and using COM port. I already extracted *.dz from *.kdz but I need the dll for FlashTool. Found 2 or 3 webs with this dll, but you need a 100 bucks subscription :crying: If anyone can upload that dll I'd be very happy to try to flash this phone I'm really big n00b in this, just a plain phone user, nothing more, so don't blame me if I said something wrong
Many thanks in advance.

same problem
Hello! Same problem...
My L5 is making me crazy... It has CyanogenMod 10 nighlty. A friend of mine was using it and he tried to install the GAPPS after he did a factory reset. I have no idea what guide he used but it got soft bricked... It's constantly showing a "stopped working" message and after a while reboots by itself.
I tried to do a factory reset but it always returns to the same point, same apps installed, everything like the reset never happened. I even used CWM to reset it and it allways goes back to the same recovery point.
After a while I decided to flash a stock room but here's the problem: I can't get into emergency mode.
After reading ALL post about it I found that there's at least three ways of entering EM, (1) down VOL and plug in usb cable without battery; (2) down+up VOL and plug in usb; (3) down+up VOL + power botton.
Conclusions:
(1) - gives me a screen full of code like a command line
(2) - White screen
(3) - White screen
I've read ALL the unbrinking post on the internet, including xda, and none of them helped.
The KDZ Updater never recognizes the phone. I installed all the drivers but everytime I plug in the phone it installes the same LGE MTP drive...
Can anyone help, please?!
How to enter Emergency mode? How to flash another rom?

[D802] Download mode is not working with FlashTool2014 - SOLVED

Hi,
I'm opening a thread because I just couldn't find any way to unbrick my device. In the past I used the FlashTool2014 to go back to the stock LP KDZ for my device.
I was in the stock rom when I decided to mess with the build.prop and then went back to the stock backup. When I restarted the phone it showed the LG logo, screen went black and never booted android. I could access the stock recovery but the Factory Reset won't work.
Then I decided to go to download mode, it connects and the PC detects it as an MTP device. I open the FlashTool2014 and it detects the device OK. When the LGUserCSTool opens it says the Upgrade stopped due to an error and the device stays on 0% and shows USER B70 in the console. I can press Retry, turn off the phone and reconnect in Download mode but the LGCSTool just wont push the firmware.
I suspected I had a driver issue so I tried using a clean win8 install I have for this purposes without success. I cant flash with the TOT method since the other LG Flash Tool wont detect the device in download mode when connected to the pc. This is really weird.
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Solved with another tot file (almost lost all hope), took me 20+ hours to download it, I'll better make a backup of this files on the cloud. Still having problems with STOCK firmwares but could install TWRP and get CM13 which doesn't give any problems.

I had a very similar problem with it getting stuck at the logo after pushing supersu to the phone. I followed Supersport every single step of the way in his video. I think his links are the only valid ones online now, so just download them and reflash your phone. If your G2 is anything like mine, drivers will never appear to be installed correctly and it never restarts, only shuts down.
His method is:
1) Download and install LG drivers on PC
2) Download and install the flash tool and patch it
3) Download and load the .tot and .dll files into the flash tool
4) Enter download mode on G2 by holding volume up while connecting USB
5) Switch G2 Com port to 41 in device manager
6) Once Flash tool shows that all ports are ready, power down G2 and disconnect
7) Hold volume up and reconnect to get back into download mode
8) LG Flash tool starts flashing
9) Complete
Note: If your G2 was screwed up as bad as mine, it'll say failed but all the main system files will load to the device before it restarts and it'll even shut itself off while doing it's installation on first reboot. Mine somehow was still revived from this state with his method.

LG G2 won't turn on

Hi.
To start off, I'd like to say im no expert with phones, I had phones mostly to call, watch videos and listen to music, and this is my first attempt at doing all the stuff I will be describing now.
From the beginning:
I bought a seller refurbished LG G2, which worked fine when I received it, I had to do some updates which my phone found automatically, and it ended at OS version 4.4.2.
I wanted to finally have a decent but cheap phone, however it couldn't play some games I wanted to play and thought "Maybe if I update OS to something new, it will work, and it looks better"
Here my journey to update the phone to Android 11 started.
I was looking at many different videos and guide and everything, how to root, first time I rooted was by accident, only later a better video instructed me how to do it properly, then I installed the trww or whatever its called. then it didnt work properly after using that recovery to install android 11, so I had to flash it to some old version I found for my device (My version is LG D802 btw). For some reason it now had only 11gb of space, instead of 32gb. Anyway, I tried installing root and twrw thing again. After getting root and the recovery program I clicked reboot in its options and now my phone is having an issue.
First off, I left it to charge over 9 hours. If its NOT connected via usb it does nothing, power button, volume buttons do nothing.
I tried connecting it to my phone to flash it, but nope, after few seconds it says my phone disconnected from the usb and try again, even tho it is connected and I can see in device manager that it's seen by my PC. Now, I tried to enter the download mode manually, and it worked.
It says that it's rooted and B0 above it (this number was going down over different roots, twrw installs and flashes and such, no idea what it is.
I tried to flash it again since Im in download mod, however now the main issue appeared. It goes well for 40% of the flash using the LG flash tool 2014, I can see the progress in the download mode on the phone's screen, however once it reaches that certain point it just resets and the program treats it as disconnected.
Now when I have the phone connected via usb it just flashes red between 1 and 3 times, LG logo shows up for several seconds, then it turns off, and repeats the whole process.
During the flashing, software instructed me to remove the batter and try again, so I looked up how to remove it, did it, put everything back together, and its still the same.
Please tell me what to do, I've already spent over 10 hours trying to fix it and I just bought this phone...

hi... if your phone flashes LG logo - i'd recommend a full TOT flash of the original Lollipop image as a starting point...
just make sure you download a proper TOT file for your d802 device (32gb model)...
you'll end up with a working stock Lollipop rom which you can later root and flash a custom rom (i.e. Lineage 18)
Stock TOT file is usually about 2.6-2.7GB in size (at least for my 16gb model)
this youtube video shows how to do it and what is required for the process...
i think there is also an older thread here on XDA on how to TOT flash a G2 device (try to search it)
