I guess you messed up the partitions.

But the PC has to recognized the phone for this to work.

Flashing firmware using LG UP (k8, k10, ...)

First of all there is a guide already for some devices made by pvineeth97 so if you have one of those devices, you better use his description:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/guide-upgrade-downgrade-lg-k10-t3488250
Secondly this guide is not meant to be providing kind of a "one click" method. This guide is meant to provide you info about how to make lg up recognize your device.
You need a working LG Bridge (this would mean that you installed all the necessary drivers already).
Also download a firmware for your device, you can use this guide by Kappu:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/guide-downloading-kdz-lg-bridge-t3504497
Extract LGUPc.dll from your kdz file using lg firmware extractor (http://viid.me/qe7ufH) or if you use Kappu's guide there is also a folder you can find this dll file.
Rename LGUPc.dll to LGUP_8916.dll
Get LG UP lab version (1.10) (you can find it on xda)
After you installed it, do not run it.
Put LGUP_8916.dll into folder:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\8916"
Download (http://viid.me/qe7ijc) or make your own reg file consisting these lines:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\LG Electronics\LGUP\Model\K35010e]
"DLL_PATH"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\LG Electronics\\LGUP\\model\\8916\\LGUP_8916.dll"
"MODEL_NAME"="K35010e"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\LG Electronics\LGUP\Model\K35010e\Provision]
"BIN File"=" "
name it: "k350n_.reg" or whatever device you have (mine is k350n)
as you can see in the reg file there are three instaces of "K35010E". This is my device "id".
If you have a different device (which is rather likely) you will need to use it's "id". Firstly you can chose it from the name of the kdz (the first 4-8 characters of the kdz filename).
Now import this entry to registry (double click on the ".reg" file).
Later on when you try to connect your device and start lg up it will show you a small window (Model List) and if in that window in the first column (under "model") it sais "unknown" then in the next column ("Com ports") you can read the device "id" you have to use, right after the com port (eg. COM4, K35010e).
So change all instaces of "id" regarding to your devices "id" and import the reg file again.
Also you can download pvineeth97 reg files to see how they work and prepare your own.
Now put your phone into download mode (turn it off, hold vol+ button and connect to usb).
Once its connected and all drivers seems to be properly installed you can run LGUP. See above what to do when you have the unknown model error.
When your phone is properly connected, you can chose the proper kdz file and flash it (refurbish -> start).
Sometimes phone reboots twice so don't get scared after the first boot up this might reboot rigth after.
All data will be lost if you use refurbish mode! Optionally you can try using upgrade mode so you will not lose any data however might not solve your problem.
Sometimes when the second time you use it the device id changes so when you have that unknown device error message you have to change the "id" accordingly and add it to registry again (update the reg file and double click).
No promises and no responsibility by me...

In case of 10g firmware (K8, k350n) uncompress and put this file (http://viid.me/qrKdHT) into "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\10g" folder and uncompress and add this dll file (http://viid.me/qrKdVX) to registry (double click and allow adding it).

Does LG UP allow flashing ALL of the original software?
I need to revert my LG K8 to full stock (seems like newest SuperSU messed up some things) and guess what... LG Bridge doesn't wipe all SuperSU components. I've tried wiping Cache, Data and even System and reinstalling via LG Bridge on top of that and still there is /supersu directory and I cannot receive OTA to 6.0.1. I guess it must be boot image that somehow is left untouched by LG Bridge. I just hope that kdz downloaded by LG Bridge contains all necessary stuff...

it's just a folder name... you can name it whatever you want (like it could be "k10430dsy") just use your folder name accordingly at all instances of 8916... and of course you have to make that folder in the up/model instead of 8916
(i used this folder name because if you use the "factory" installer of the phones for lg up it makes such folders...)

I guess the .dll file taken from your kdz is not in the folder or has a different name from which is given in the .reg file.
Check the .reg file and edit it accordingly or put the .dll file to the rigth place with the right name.
If you can't make it work, send me your .dll and .reg file and i'll make it for you.

They are in tar format and need to be unzipped first then flashed with odin.

You either have a issue with your download method or you need to use 7zip to extract the zip to md5.
Do not unpack the md5 or you will get payload errors.

Unroot & Re-pack firmware?

I had 50pc japan version of s5(sc-04f), installed rom 'G900F.STOCK.FOR.SCL23.FULL.MINHQUAN'. The downside of this rom is that its pre-rooted. I managed to unroot it by goin in supersu & click 'full-unroot'. But i had multiple devices to flash, so is there a way for me to re-pack this firmware again after i unroot it? So that i could flash it to my other devices without root.

Generally, if it's 6.0.1 and rooted systemlessly, you need to replace boot.img with a stock one and remove SuperSU app from system.img.
This ROM intended to be flashed from TWRP, so it's an ext4 image.
You can mount it to a linux system on your PC and remove anything you want.

I havent done anything like this before. Could u give me some links or guides? My PC is running Windows 10.

Ok, here' a simpler way:
1. Make changes on one phone.
2. Make a TWRP backup of boot and system partitions.
3. Restore this backup on other phones. They must have TWRP installed, a 6.0.1 bootloader and modem.
You'll have to rename backup's folder path and to wipe cache/data/system before restore.

can i use winrar to extract & compile the rom, without linux? So that i will have a much faster flashing process for all other units..

Ok, I've managed to download that ROM at last.
The things look even simpler.
To prepare an "unrooted" ROM:
1. Download the zip form this post and unpack updater-script somewhere.
2. Make a copy of V3.G900F.STOCK.FOR.SCL23.FULL.MINHQUAN.zip, open it with Windows Explorer and replace V3.G900F.STOCK.FOR.SCL23.FULL.MINHQUAN.zip\META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script with the file you've unpacked from the attachment.
3. Try to flash ans see if it's what you need.

thx so much, already passed all units to the buyer. ill try that on next batch restock, may iknow if there's a way to get the service menu shortcode *#0*# to work again? This rom doesn't has the service menu.

Unfortunetly due to anti-rollback messures used by LG and Carriers, fixing a hard bricked G5 is essentially immpossible. It may be doable if your on Stock Marshmellow
