[Q] F240L Stuck at Download mode - LG Optimus G Pro

Hi all,
I just tried to flash Android 5.0.1 kdz on my LG optimus G Pro F240L. The flash was unsuccessful, and all I ended up was with a Download mode. Previously It was on stock 4.1.2. I don't have any recovery installed. Please help me recover my phone. I just bought it (used) yesterday I tried different flashing methods but all in vain

Good to know that bro. But it is old method, you don't need to do all this. Just use latest LG flash tool, disconnect from internet and simply run it. You are good to go.

It gives if you are connected to internet. You need to dc from internet then run LG flash tool. Once it starts flashing (after 5%), you can connect to internet again.

well, I'm going to sell it now.. I bought it used on olx and yesterday and today I found that it's rear camera is replaced with a third quality camera.... I'll buy Nexus 4 then
Thanks for Your precious time

[Q] Error lg mobile support tool

Hello everyone I have a problem with LG Mobile Support Tool.
Every time I follow a guide for unbrick my phone gives me this error:
Please disconnect the cable from your cell phone in order and remove and connect the battery.
Power on your cell phone and press the Restart button to resume update.
If LG Support Tool is stopped abnormally, try with [Options] - [Upgrade Recovery] in the tool menu.
The error is when it comes to 13-15%
I tried to reinstall it but nothing changes.
has anyone had this problem and how did you solve it?
goodbye
sorry for my bad english :/
Yeah,kdz updater. If you have an aosp rom installed,lg mobile tool won't work. Click my signature and read there

Do you guys have acces to recovery mode?
If so, then you should be able to flash a custom rom through adb sideload function.
If not, then either of these threads might help you out:

First i tested LG PC Suite (i did not get in from LG) if must have been a bad old version if was stock in repair 49% for about 60min and after that the phone did not get recognised at all on the computer (tested on windows 8.1 & 7)
I even tested LG Flash Tool 2014 and downloaded firmware from LG via the IMEI, but did not get recognised at all when i tried to flash the firmware.
But in the end i got it got fixed thanks to LG PC Suite (downloaded if from LG and) and got it fixed by "repair"

[Q] My G3 is Softbricked - $20 to the first person that can help me fix it!

I'm going crazy here and I need my phone to work!
I have an LG G3 on Verizon.
I rooted it and edited a part of build.prop to change the DPI which got the phone stuck in a boot loop and kept popping up "the process com.android.systemui has stopped.
I tried clearing cache
I tried booting in safe mode
I then did a factory reset
My phone boots up to the Setup Wizard screen but I am STILL getting that systemui error and a com.android.phone and I can't get any further than that screen.
I then tried to use the LG FlashTool to just wipe the entire ROM and replace it with the stock one from Verizon.
This gave me a "Model Information Check FAIL!" error but I DO have the right ROM for my phone. There's only one for the Verizon G3 as far as I can tell
This led me to realizing that there is something in the build.prop that's making LGFlashTool think the proper rom actually isn't right.
I then installed the Android SDK so I can ADB into my phone. but whenever I run "abd devices" nothing shows up in the list.
I was told USB Debugging needs to be turned on in order for this to work, I don't remember if it's turned on or not with my phone and I can't get past the Setup Wizard to edit anything. I wonder if ADB is even running properly on my phone or if these errors are stopping it?
I will gladly paypal someone $20 if they can get this working for me.
Did you tried this?

One of my friends saved his phone by this guide
Download mode - LG PC Suite - Restore update error.
1. Remove battery
2. Boot phone into download mode
3. Open LG PC Suite - restore update error
This method have saved me a few times.
Will adb work in one of the recovery modes even if it wasn't enabled in the full boot mode? If so, start there.

Regarding your USB debugging question, you would have had to turn it on in order to root the phone originally, right? If so I imagine it would still be on unless you unchecked it. You have the proper drivers set up? Anytime I've encountered issues with adb devices not returning any results the issue has been drivers.
Good luck.

I believe I have the proper drivers, I installed drivers and the phone is showing up in device manager as Alright.
Try hooking it up to the lg support tool and select uprade recovery.
Download and install support tool
Open tool
Plug in phone with phone on.
Top right select options/upgrade recovery
Let it do its thing.

Bootloop, download mode and TWRP not working

I flashed Fulmic rom for my G3 D855 today. Everything was well when I discovered until I discovered, that camera app is not showing. The fix was to download the fix from Fulmics app and flash it via TWRP. I downloaded the fix and rebooted to install the fix. After reboot I got stuck in bootloop, when I try to access recovery, it goes to TWRP first logo and stays there. Nothing happens. When I try to access download mode, it shows the first download mode logo and stays there. Computer detects the phone in device manager as "LGE Android MTP Device". LGUP shows model as "Unknown". Cant do nothing more. Every help is appreciated.
Are you sure you flashed the fix ? Because it seems like you flashed something else that messed up your device

I downloaded the fix, then tried to install it via twrp. But twrp didn't start. So I ran AutoRec again to reinstall TWRP which seemed to go well. Forgot to mention this on first post. After reinstalling TWRP the problems occurred.

Can't enter twrp, just shows TEAMWIN logo with blue background and stripes. Nothing more happens.
Download mode text shows up, pc makes connection sound but I dont know what to do after that. I tried using LGUP but that showed that model is "Unknown".
Ah, try lg flash tool 2014 or lg flashtool (and a tot file), find a thread by hyelton (lg g3 get back to stock), this will help you

I have tried this method also. Every time at 4% it says, error, remove battery and then reconnect and turn on phone. After that, connection with pc is lost.
Also, when I try to get to Download Mode, it should go then to Firmware update screen to? Am I right about that? If so, then it doesn't go to Firmware update screen.
But I tried it with a kdz I had in my computer and had used before. Downloading .tot file atm.

You could try downloading LG Bridge (http://www.lg.com/us/support/product-help/CT10000025-1438110404543-preinstall-apps) and then connect the G4 to it. Then, once LG Bridge detects the phone, try clicking on "Update error recovery", and let me know how that goes.
