[Q] G2 d800 with d802 rom/firmware bad flash

I bought a broken AT&T G2 that the buyer did a bad flash or something with. Doing some playing around on the phone I see that the phone is d800/ AT&T G2, with what to appears to be a d802 firmware in it. Phone turns on and boots up to main screen but touch screen doesn't respond well and it reboots after maybe 1 min or two.
I have tried lg flash tool but get failed because it reads the phone as d802 and the dll/tot file are for the d800 and doesn't give me an option to proceed. Also tried LGMLauncher but doesn't download the software, gets stuck at 11%.
Any other help will be appreciated, if not I'll resell this phone.

You can still get into recovery right? You try sideloading a correct rom?

Unfortunately not. It's in a boot loop and when I hold power and volume down it just goes to
[800] fast lot mode started
[850] udc_start()
And that's all I get can i force it into recovery another way

Going give this a try again. But the issue is if my pc has enough time to sync with the phone before the phone reboots.

I've tried something along those lines but to no avail. My phone doesn't show up on my computer in its current status. How can I get map to recognize my phone I have the drives installed and lg upgrade tool can see it so I know it can kinda see it. When I ran Adb devices nothing comes up on the ASB command prompt

don't think that's going to work for my situation but I'll give it a try in a bit. So I would get a d800 rom and load d802 .dll? I think once the program sees the .dll file and the firmware, it will fail.

Tried it with the d802 dll file and d800. Still fails for me.
Here is the d802.dll
https://www.dropbox.com/s/77isqnkeuixkj6u/LGD802_20130912_LGFLASHv160.dll

well i tried it and it said i have the wrong bin now -_- guess i cant flash the stock .tot then since the phone actually thinks its a d802 now

i think we need some one to hack the dll or the LGFlashTools to skip TOT checking

Ya if we could get someone to do that then I could get everything to go through. Unfortunately I don't know any one with much programming or coding skills. But thanks for the help so far man. It's nice to know not everyone on the Internet is an asshole

if you can stay longger in fastboot mode
try flash VZ laf.img
fastboot erase laf
fastboot flash laf laf.img
here how to and tool for fastboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477595
i think this partition also the responsible for phone type ex D802 or VZ980 where LGFlashTools use it to detect phone type
laf partition will bring download mode to you

Hahaha tried this one to and the one it links me too. My phone isn't reconized my my computer so doing things throught the PCs CMD is out of the question for me and so is pushing the boot .img via ADB since my phone wasn't In debugging mode when I bricked it. But again thanks man. I think I've exhausted most of the conventional fix it threads on this since I've been looking through everything since Sunday

Flashed a D802 ROM to my VS980 phone...

To be more specific its the MIUI ROM which is not made for the verizon model...I basically was lying in my bed and just started doing all this random ****t while half asleep. I cant get it to get into recovery mode no matter what I do, any suggestions?

Download mode?

Can you tell your error here? if its like an verification error that it can't verify that your phone is vs980 then you have to hexedit the Kdz I believe.

I think my G2 is bricked :(

I had a rooted LG G2 D802 on EE with KK update that was working fine until today...
I tried to flash a nice custom rom to it and well, to cut a long story short something went wrong and the next thing i know i have a phone which only shows up as about 10 hdd's in windows, and as QHSUSB_BULK in device manager.
I couldn't get it to go into download mode or anything, so i followed the Unbricking guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142
Unfortunately this appeared to do nothing for the phone, so i used the Tung Lee guide and this also did nothing.
After i did the above guide the phone was no longer recognised in windows or Linux, but thanks to this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/lg-g2-unbrickable-fix-real-hard-brick-t2904404
I was able to at least get it back to the state it was in in the first place.
After following all these guides i am now at a loss as to how to sort my phone out,and i'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction for a fix..
When the phone was working, i put the imei into the firmware engine and it found me the D80220H firmware, i have tried using the bin files from the first guide and from D80220B as well with no luck, so i was wondering if one of the above guides do indeed work, how can i get the .img files i need from a D80220H KDZ?
Its been a long night and i'm now currently without my phone, i'm hoping someone can help and i can get my beloved G2 back to a working state before the weekend.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post.
Tony

Have you simply tried the LG Flash Tool? When it happened to me once, i simply reg
Flashed kdz using this tool and voila!!! Try and report

@Shadowhunta Are you using the twrp IMG from that first guide? That might explain why this isnt working. Extract the kdz using this tool
Flash the aboot, boot and laf then try download mode.

I was using the TWRP from that post, but then i downloaded the latest one and that didn't make any difference, I haven't tried that tool properly yet to get the .img files needed from the KDZ i have for D80220H, but i have flashed the aboot, boot and laf of D80220B and that didn't help either, i couldn't get it into recovery mode, download mode or anything! With the first tutorial i managed to get it into Hard reset mode, but it just hung on processing.
Thanks for the suggestions, i will try them during lunch and get back to you both, thank you so far!
Anyone else had the same problem as me, keep the suggestions coming, all are helpful and appreciated

Followed that, still nothing, won't boot into recovery mode, only thing it does is show in windows as a load of local disks, and QHSUSB_BULK in device manager with a yellow exclamation mark
I've followed all the advice so far given and none of it worked, i think i'm screwed :/

Now i'm stuck on fastboot screen and keep downloading this update for hours and getting the same errors whithout knowing the problem.
I 've tried to unlock but the OEM isn't enabled and there is no way to do it from fastboot.
Please help me i don't know what to do

Flash with LGUP and Uppercut.
Search the forum for the KDZ file.
Put phone in Download mode, load the KDZ file and flash.

Thank you. Now I tried it on a third PC and replaced the USB cable with the original one. I don't know what part of that was the solution but it worked. Although I had to rerun the update as it was interrupted on the first procedure.

Bricked LG G6

Hello everyone!
To make my problem short I tried to update my LG G6 on Oreo but in the middle of update process phone shut down(I didn't know why-probably battery?) And after that phone is bootlooping and I tried to flash stock rom using uppercut and LGUP but without success I manage to start flash process and when it reaches about 50% phone just reboots and flash tool gives error message. Now phone is bricked. I don't now if there are any solutions. Any help is appreciated! Thank you guys! :fingers-crossed:

Keep on charging..
See some post how to enter in download mode (within fraction of second).. use LGUP and flash PROPER ROM..
(I see it was bootlooping.. that it must be charging)

Huge thanks for your reply, well I manage to get to download mode without problem, PC can detect phone as well and I can start flashing process, however with all firmwares I have found I cannot "refurbish" because "refurbished is not supported by that firmware" so I can only select upgrade in LG up. When I start process it goes all the way up to about 50% and phone just reboots back to download mode, after that LG UP moves a few % further reaching about 55% and gives error " invalid response code". I think if I can somehow use that refurbish option to clean flash stock rom , maybe that will be the fix. Thanks again.

I also forgot to mention that when I failed to install stock room with LG up my phone cannot escape download mode, when I force reboot it phone goes again directly to download mode. Probably because there is no OS installed?

Are you sure to using right firmwares for your model?

Thanks for reply. Pretty sure I did use good firmware I found links here on XDA forums and downloaded "H8710d_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0327.kdz" but if I somehow found .tot file would that make a difference and let me to use that "refurbish" option. Thanks everyone for help, very appreciated!

Hi Ray, can you provide me the link of the tot file? I have the same problem

Unfortunately, I think there are no tot files that support refurbish. But after I replaced motherboard regular kdz update flash worked perfectly. I haven't found solution to that problem.
I would suggest you to try your luck if you have unlocked bootloader and try to flash TWRP to get phone back.
