[Q] E988 Bricked - Struggling to flash - LG Optimus G Pro

Recently my E988 has been bricked, and I have no idea how to fix it. I have read many guides and have gotten up to the point where I have the LG Flash Tool, my problem is that I need a S/W file for it. I have found it for 980 and others, but I have not yet found one for the E988. I have the DLL file. I also read in a topic that the firmware would download for me? However this has not happened. Can anyone please help me out?

Your phones are different so his solution probably won't work for you. Try the unbrick thread.

Hi, I was searching info and I found this, i don't know if can work to solve the download mode problem reflashing the firmware. http://www.lgmobile.co.kr/lgmobile/front/download/retrieveDownloadMain.dev Where it says Optimug G Pro Upgrade, click in the option "U+" that is the AKA of the F240L. I don't understand the characters, it seem korean or something like that, but there it is a info about the LG Suppot tool, i think with this program can download the tot file or flash directly with an internet connection.
I was searching for a kzd flash for lg optimus g pro series but i can't found a easy software tool for this purpose. But in this link is the KDZ Firmware files for your version http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=25

You just destroyed your firmware, hope you back up your phone regularly because every data on that device is now gone. On the brighter note, since you know how to flash the rom, all you have to do is flash the device correctly and you should be good.

flashed tmobile firmware on and ls980 g2.. can i fix it? please help

I flashed a stock 4.4.2 t-mobile firmware to my sprint ls980.. is there anyway to get any ls980 firmware back on it? i use it for tmobile which is why i flashed it but seen a few threads on how to unlock the sim and now im stuck. did i ruin the phone? or could i at least get it to work through tmobile with the firmware i flashed? i cant even get it to connect to google play. wifi works tho
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck
First: Grab the ZVE Tot file
Second: Flash it in download mode.
Good luck, flashing in download mode is rather a pain to do.

There is a DLL file that is generic that should overcome that problem.
Facing the same problem..please help
I've also done the same thing just a little bit different.
i flashed D802 (international version) kdz file over my sprint g2 (Model is LS-980) but it does not work, when i turn on the phone I can't even complete the setup and the phone restarts. touch panel is also not working right.
Now i've downloaded the stock .tot rom for sprint version and trying to flash it using lg flash tool in download mode. But it does not flash it. It detects my phone as D802 and gives the error about the model number does not match
I need help getting it back to LS-980

Supposedly there's a stock .kdz which I can use to extract the .dll from, but I haven't found any stock .kdz file so far.
So, this generic .dll sounds great and one of my last options left. I'll appreciate if you can point me to that file. I'm going to try to find it.
Thanks a lot!!! :good:

I've tried this .dll file with both the stock ls980zvc and ls980zve .tot firmwares.
but the flash tool gives this error "CrossDL [D802] to [LS980]. SWversion"
Is there any way around this?

Help going back to stock!

Hey guys,
I am trying to take my LG G3 back from Cyanogenmod to stock rom.
This should not be an issue, but im finding it hard?
The phone is D855 European 32gb.
I have been able to find a .TOT but not a KDZ rom for it, all i find is the 16gb rom.
I cant figure out how to use the .TOT and searching google leaves me with further questions as to which method i should use?
One says LG Flash Tool one says something else, im just going nuts over this..
A kind sould to point me the in the right direction?
Key points, im on the same pc as i did the root and cyanogen, and the LG drivers are already on the PC, the USB sees the phone on COM port 3.
Thanks

Request for volunteers - creating debrick image for the d851

Hello, Since the Board Giag Tool Doesnt work for the D851 and the only way to unbrick the D851 is by sending it to LG Repair or Some Other Repair or Flashing it with either Medusa Box or Octoplus Box. It wasnt long when @Kathik figured out that the LG G3 F460 S/K/L which is also not supported by the Board Diag Tool can be unbricked by creating a debrick image. You can find his thread here.
This debrick image that @Kathik used is just a dump of the bootloaders from a working LG G3 F460. And all we need to do is to find a way to create the debrick image from a working D851 running the firmware version the bricked D851 was on before it got bricked.
Fortunately for all of us, i got my hands on the zip file which creates the dump or debrick image (Thanks to @Anik49) We have the file.
So all we need is volunteers to flash this zip file in TWRP and once done, you should see a file name debrick.img.zip on your Sdcard.
If this work, we wont need to send our devices for repairs or dissasemble them when they get bricked.
Please feel free to ask any questions about the process.
I flashed the zip and it said it created the debrick.img.zip but I am unable to locate it anywhere. I'm assuming this is because I am on Stock LG Marshmallow with the slight research I did with the thread you linked.
Sorry bud, I tried. It was the only G3 I had hands on. I hope someone else will volunteer in our community.
Maybe u need to downgrade to 5.0
I wrote in the other thread, the day that I put to work to upgrade to Marhsmallow, i will make the debrick files in some versions as 10c, 10f and other higher ... Right now I have a lot of work and I can not do today. Greetings
Any updates on this?
I would also like to hear from a kind soul as now I have a bricked D851 too
UP , anyone ? im suffring with my D851

I tried creating the unbrick SD this week but failed to do. Seems like the phone was not actually reading from the SD files.
But I have successfuly created the files to unbrick the phone now as long as the phone is in 9008 mode.

KDZ to TOT, or .TOT of my model so I can recover it from hard brick.

Hello,
I have a LG G3 (D855P - Made and sold in Brazil) that I bricked while trying to root it with LGUP (actually to downgrade it first). It won't boot normally neither enter download mode anymore. When I plug it on windows it says "Quectel QDLoader 9008". Yes, Quectel, I assume it's supposed to be QUalcomm. Software version is V30A. So yeah, I'm trying to find the .tot for it because I could only find the .kdz file here:
*I can't post it because I'm new* Remove " dot " and add ".". And don't forget to add the http thing in the beginning.
pkg02 dot cdn dot gdms dot lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FWDCCTI972GMA1Y8685CZCL/D855P30a_00_0118.kdz
Question is: Does anybody have the .tot file for it?
Can I use random D855P .tot file or some variant? If so, which? Like 10A, 20A, or 30A. OR, 30B, C...? Since mine is 30A.
thanks and HELP!
Edit: managed to get Qualcomm thing. But no TOT for it Also, If it try another random tot for D855 I get "No AP... try pmic first".
I believe this tool will extract a TOT from a KDZ

It still misses the partition.txt needed in boardiag.
Perhaps this may help: https://web.archive.org/web/2015111...how-to-create-partition-txt-file-kdz-t3109859
I am not exactly sure because this is for a D502, but perhaps the theory will help.
Hopefully someone else can help out here.

WIll give it a look.
I just managed to change the "queltec" **** to qualcomm. Now I'm going to reboot and try what you said. Will edit this post soon so I won't double post.
Edit: it's impossible to follow this tutorial with no images loading.
I'm sorry :/ the original post was deleted so the images are gone. I hope someone else can help... Best of luck.
