Hello
This is the process that I used to unbrick the LG G Pad 8.3 tablet.
Note 1: The operating system on my PC is Windows XP SP3 x86
Note 2: The same process should also work on LG G Pad 10.1 (With a different .tot file)
1. First of all you should make sure that the G Pad is detected when connected to the PC.
The device should be seen as QHSUSB_DLOAD in Other Devices section in Device Manager.

2. Install the QHSUSB Driver for your operating system.
The driver can be found here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!HlpViaTJ!NPACjSQtTjGWdYIj3kHO3bGfmAotaSSQindmgRY9VJ4
I have used the driver from the "checked" folder.
Reconnect the tablet and you should now see the device as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COMxx) under the Ports section in Device Manager.
Take a note of the COM port number.
hxxp://i.imgur.com/IR7uUCB.png
3. Download the .tot image file for you tablet model.
I have used the one from here (LG G Pad 8.3 V500 4.4.2):
hxxp://androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407581518
4. Now you need the LG BoardDiag tool.
Download this one from here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!XwgkXTAR!JnAAXKBQoezT7CcxRSVkSQlPFr4AXcvfm6oJbw4bht4
Please use only this one even if you have another BoardDiag. I have tried other versions and this was the only one that worked. For the other versions I always got some error:
failed during loading flash programmer
or
device not found in dload trying flash programmer
With this tool we will extract the .tot rom image first.
Unrar the archive and open BoardDiag3.99c application.
Click on the ... button next to BIN from the Image Extraction section on the bottom of the BoardDiag application and browse to the .tot file you downloaded at step 3.
Then click on the ... button next to DIR and browse to a folder to extract the files in.
Click on the Extract button and wait for the files to be extracted.
After the extraction is complete, close the BoardDiag application.
hxxp://i.imgur.com/Kw0ZhUv.jpg
5. Now we will perform some cheks on the tablet.
Open the BoardDiag application again.
Now select the AP check and EMMC TEST checkboxes from the Board Diag Test section on the top-left.
Also choose the G-pro (APQ8064) on the AP Chipset dropdown selection box. Choose the Com Port that you took a note of at step 2. Select as the Target Dir the folder where you extracted the .tot image file at step 4. These settings are in the top-right side of the BoardDiag application. Make no other changes to the settings.
Now Click on the big START button and wait for the checks to be made.
If everything is OK you should see under the Test Results section the green text PASS both under the AP and EMMC. Leave the BoardDiag application open. Now you can proceed to step 6.
6. Now we will Flash the files to the tablet.
Now you will also check the SDRAM TEST checkbox on the left top side of the BoardDiag application. The other settings were already made in step 5. Click the START button again.
After performing the checks you should see that the files from the image (aboot.mbn, boot.mbn, etc.) are written to the tablet.
After that, the BoardDiag tried to reset the tablet, but it failed and it ended with FAIL for SDRAM under the Test Results section. But the files were already written on the tablet.
7. After that I disconnected and reconnected the tablet to the PC. Nothing was detected, or so I thought, because I could see that in Device Manager something was happening. It was like refreshing itself every 5 seconds or so. I disconnected the tablet from the PC and I plugged in the wall charger. It turns out that the battery had no power.
After a few minutes the LG logo appeared on the screen. Nothing else was happening but I could see the LG logo. I left the tablet to charge the battery for at LEAST 3 hours. If your tablet battery is also discharged you should plug your tablet to the charger for at LEAST 3 hours.
After that I reconnected the tablet to the PC and it was detected as G Pad but it couldn't find the driver.
8. Install the LG Mobile Drivers.
You can get them from here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!j8xikSYC!Njz3E1_PSJanzQEeZCbbEoWfxUz9TfrTVgusqBCJ2qY
After the driver installation reconnect the tablet to the PC.
It should now be connected properly.
9. Download LG Mobile Support Tool. You can use the launcher from here:
hxxp://mega.nz/#!bp5jgBQJ!xqiMyQU7z-ATlYz__0ybz2kM7boeLFNgqsu5XoPPSzo
Open LG Mobile Support Tool. You should now see the tablet is connected correctly and you should see the tablet model on the left side of the LG Mobile Support Tool. You will now go to Options and choose Upgrade Recovery. Wait for the image to be downloaded and flashed to the tablet.
After the process is completed the tablet will boot to life again.
Please write your comments bellow if you succeeded or failed. I will provide further assistance if required.
PS: I think you need to remove the battery and reinsert it after step 6. Or it could also work if you let the battery discharge completely.
Good luck!
I could not post the images and the links.
I will add them later (after I get to 10 posts).
Contact me on skype (cyadron) for the files and for other help.
nice finding.
it can be handy if we try to flash the v510 bootloader on the v500 to see if it fits and "unlocks" the pad

Actually it was the only way I found that worked to unbrick this tablet.
Bricked LG G Pad
Need your help man with those files. I bricked my device after flashing wrong file. I have tried LG G2 Pro Board Diag tool and everything passes except SDRAM.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Links for files
Hi, I bricked my GPad and would be very interested in getting the proper files or links. How can I get them?
I will update this thread as soon as I can post links. Hopefully no more than a few days.

Can you post links ?
This sounds very promising @cyadron, hopefully you'll be able to edit the links in soon.
@muiriddin this sounds like you should be able to revive your tablet from your science experiment.
@fefifofum posting here instead of the other thread as that would be way off topic for it.
This sounds like we'll be able to do some proper experimenting and still be able to recover if it doesn't work!
Hopefully I will be able to post the links soon. Does anyone know the minimum number of posts required to post links?

This thread should probably be pinned. You can request the moderators to do so by "reporting" your first post and ask them there. Too bad, as far as I know, there aren't any TOTs available for the VK810, although I haven't needed one yet.
I used the tutorial, but accuses ero Emmec test fails
Any solution?

Unless there is a hardware problem with the emmc, it should work.
Try and remove the battery and put it back again.
Please also make sure you follow the steps as described.

Read everything you can and follow instructions.
I think you'll need to search further than just this thread though. I read about someone recovering an LG device from this state but I think it was a phone.
But you'll need to find it and follow the instructions, I don't remember where I read it.

Hi guys!
Just recently I bought the "HDC Galaxy Note 2" off of fastcardtech. I got it a few days ago, am fairly pleased with it except for the slight miscalibrated touch screen. There are some apps on various markets aiming to fix this by re-applying new calibrations. The problem is that you'll have to be rooted in order to run them.
The phone comes with a built-in calibration setting, called "Als_ps calibration", which you can utizile to correct the sensor. Alas, it only corrects the phone's recognition of obstacles placed above it, so that you accidentaly wouldn't press any undesired button during a call.
Phone: http://www.fastcardtech.com/Galaxy-Note-2-Mega
Here's what I've done so far!
Enabled USB-debugging and installed USB-drivers. [MT65xx_USB_Driver.zip]
Tried the bin4ry root method, normal mode. [Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18.zip]
This method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Everything works just fine until the phone reboots. Bin4ry is then unable to mount or copy the last files needed to apply root permission, see attached picture.
I have attached my specs in a screenshot, nevermind the quality, t'was done by another crap-camera! Sorry ;]
Any kind soul who can help me root this thing?
Edit:
Rooting this device has been made possible by GT35pro. See posts below.

I just created the cwm recovery and root. The link is on my blog. The zip file is password protected so be sure to get it from my blog page.

After you have clockwork mod recovery, use it to flash the root access into the phone.
Have fun!

Extra Guide
Follow the link provided by GT35pro in his first post.
To everyone attempting this flash;
!! First of all, copy the Superuser.zip to the root of your internal phone memory or external SD Card.!!
* Use a high-quality mini-USB cable (The one that comes with your phone should work just fine)
* Connect your MEGA to your pc, without the battery inserted.
(This device will connect and disconnect, when it's visible, be sure to grab it and follow the next step)
* Make sure that you have the right drivers for MTK65xx preloader "mtk65xx Vcom driver" and install them through the Device Manager.
* Insert your battery again, with the cable still connected, and install the second MTK65xx preloader.
* Disconnect phone from pc and remove the battery
* Start up Smart flash Tool and select the scatter file included in the package.
* Now, select and tick the checkbox for Recovery only. Smart Flash Tool will complain about the flash, due to it not containing all the appropriate files needed for a "secure boot". Nevermind that pop-up and proceed with downloading.
* Start Download
* Insert the battery and connect your phone to your pc, with that, the flashing should start.
* Boot Phone into recovery mode (pwr button and vol - or vol +) and install superuser from ZIP-file.
* After reboot you should be rooted.

Fun Fact!
I actually managed to install a pre-rooted HDC S7100 rom on my MEGA.
The port isn't 100% accurate
-Invalid IMEI, this was fixed by Talkingmobile's guide; " how to write imei number for MTK 65XX " -Just google it!
-Auto-rotation is unavailable, no fix yet.
-Als_pl calibration is unavailable (resulting in active screen during call)
Besides that, the rom is arguably better than the MEGA's original N7100 rom, in terms of visual presentation.
Smooth transitions, vivid and vibrant colors would be a good example of aspects that would come out as improved over the original rom.
Interested in the S7100 rom? Just PM me and I'll provide the link.
Cheers!
S_ft_need_download_all_fail (4050)
I'm trying for several days, but always get this error in the flash tool: S_FT_NEED_DOWNLOAD_ALL_FAIL (4050)
Tried on Windows 7 x64, Windows 7 x32 and Windows XP SP3 (x32). Only on the Windows XP computer I was able to make a backup with Flash Tool using the Read Back option.
When I try to flash the red bar goes to 100% then the error message shows...
Does anyone get this error aswell, and did someone manage to solve this?
Please help, I'm in desperate need for root because I need touch screen calibration.
Thnx!!
YES! SUCCES!! I managed to root my HDC Mage :laugh: Did use another method though, check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490 if you are interested.
Anyway, now back to calibrating the touchscreen. What tools are good do fix touchscreen issues? I already tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934500, but I still am not satisfied.
Thnx :good:

Because I tried to order 5 different phones from China including Fastcardtech; they couldn't ship for some reason; even got an empty box from ZOPO mobile. I ended up buying the BLU here in the US, I'm kind of glad it happened, since now I have an N'vidia Tegra 4 CPU, that runs circles around the dual-core phones.
I did order one more phone on ebay from China, been waiting for 2 weeks now. MAKES ME WONDER IF THEY EVEN ACTUALLY SHIP TO THE US AT ALL?
Thank to Paypal I was able to get refunded everytime.

An 80Xx error does not always mean device not connected. It can also mean there is something not right in the scatterfile (error 8038). You should take a look at the sp flash tool logfiles. You can post them here so I can have a look.

Hi everyone,
I got F240L for about 2 months.
Got software problem last months from a post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2380374
Repair to some phone shop, he got no clue neither. Left my phone in CWM.
So, I use KDZ Updater + download KDZ file from pan.baidu.com (get it to work again).
I got curious, so I install Dungeon Hunter 4 again. Again, software problem occurs, even I uninstall the game. KDZ Updater and LG Mobile Support Tool left my phone stuck in U+ LTE logo.
Browse the web, then I read someone whose using LG Flashtool (it need DLL and TOT file) to flash the phone.
Search those two files every web, finally got it.
LG Flashtool step by step guide http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f177/lg-flash-tool-free-no-need-b2b-user-pass-1628819/index2.html
And got LGUP_GKV.DLL from extracting F240L10t_00.kdz from pan.baidu.com (see attachment), this file has the same size for F240K and F240S, so it must be compatible for F240L, F240S, F240K.
And got TOT file from http://www.gaojituan.com/thread-90-1-1.html or http://optimusforums.com/threads/f240-optimus-g-pro-firmware-downloads.7679
I hope this solution might help someone who ever got this problem.
NB : After 600 seconds flashing progress using LG Flashtool, don't put your phone in LG SOFTWARE MODE. Somehow, the phone got it reboot in DOWNLOAD MODE, and LG Flashtool will reflash your phone for the 2nd time (start from 1% progress again).

Hard brick issue
Sorry, I'm also a noob here.
Can your phone go to DOWNLOAD MODE ?
I read on hongkong website (got it translate from google) 2 weeks ago, someone already try LGNPST, KDZ Updater, R&D Tool, LG Mobile Support Tool, still didn't work. The other guy recommend that you should have it fix by LG guy in Korea, or use JTAG device.
I even don't know what JTAG device is.
Maybe someone in this forums can explain you how.
Sorry if my word can be misleading.
I'll update the thread to delete the word "Hard Brick"
You are a wonderful and creative
It has succeeded with me
Glad could help.

Could you please provide instructions on how to use KDZ updater? Where did you download it from or if you could PM? thanks
I'm downloading software via LG Mobile support but at the moment its going to take 30hrs!!
KDZ updater & LG Mobile Support Tool won't help.
You need to download LG Flashtool 1.5 is the latest version on the link that on #1 post. Once you download, follow the procedure how to install the LG Flashtool.
LG Flashtool needs 2 files (DLL & TOT) to flash your phone.
You can download DLL file from the attachment on #1 post. The attachment is compressed in RAR format. You can extract it using Winzip, Winrar, or 7zip.
The TOT file is on the 2 link #1 post (chinese website & optimus forums). You need to download the approriate type according to your phone (F240L, F240K, F240S) each files about 2 GB size. I suggest you use any download manager, to prevent disconnect from bad interference or time out. I can't post the TOT file here too due to slow network in my country (Indonesia) .
After you collect those DLL & TOT files, here's step by step :
1. Disconnect any internet connection

I need LGE988.DLL. Can any one help?

Hi everyone,
I got F240L for about 2 months.
Got software problem last months from a post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2380374
Repair to some phone shop, he got no clue neither. Left my phone in CWM.
So, I use KDZ Updater + download KDZ file from pan.baidu.com (get it to work again).
I got curious, so I install Dungeon Hunter 4 again. Again, software problem occurs, even I uninstall the game. KDZ Updater and LG Mobile Support Tool left my phone stuck in U+ LTE logo.
Browse the web, then I read someone whose using LG Flashtool (it need DLL and TOT file) to flash the phone.
Search those two files every web, finally got it.
LG Flashtool step by step guide http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f177/lg-flash-tool-free-no-need-b2b-user-pass-1628819/index2.html
And got LGUP_GKV.DLL from extracting F240L10t_00.kdz from pan.baidu.com (see attachment), this file has the same size for F240K and F240S, so it must be compatible for F240L, F240S, F240K.
And got TOT file from http://www.gaojituan.com/thread-90-1-1.html or http://optimusforums.com/threads/f240-optimus-g-pro-firmware-downloads.7679
I hope this solution might help someone who ever got this problem.
NB : After 600 seconds flashing progress using LG Flashtool, don't put your phone in LG SOFTWARE MODE. Somehow, the phone got it reboot in DOWNLOAD MODE, and LG Flashtool will reflash your phone for the 2nd time (start from 1% progress again).

It goes to 100% then download fail. I think you faced similar issue not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Tot file download
chimmot307 said:
KDZ updater & LG Mobile Support Tool won't help.
You need to download LG Flashtool 1.5 is the latest version on the link that on #1 post. Once you download, follow the procedure how to install the LG Flashtool.
LG Flashtool needs 2 files (DLL & TOT) to flash your phone.
You can download DLL file from the attachment on #1 post. The attachment is compressed in RAR format. You can extract it using Winzip, Winrar, or 7zip.
The TOT file is on the 2 link #1 post (chinese website & optimus forums). You need to download the approriate type according to your phone (F240L, F240K, F240S) each files about 2 GB size. I suggest you use any download manager, to prevent disconnect from bad interference or time out. I can't post the TOT file here too due to slow network in my country (Indonesia) .
After you collect those DLL & TOT files, here's step by step :
1. Disconnect any internet connection
2. Set the computer time before Juli 15th, 2012 ( I set March 1st, 2012)
3. Double click LG Flashtool. Username, password, and Registration key are on the link #1 post
4. Insert DLL file in DLL column. Browse to where you put the DLL file.

PLZ TELL ME HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD TOT FILE baidu is not working
You can download from http://www.gaojituan.com/thread-90-1-1.html or http://optimusforums.com/threads/f240-optimus-g-pro-firmware-downloads.7679/
Click on the latest TOT file according to its date and your phone (F240L, F240S, F240K).
I've test on F240L v10i from http://www.gaojituan.com/thread-90-1-1.html works very well on pan.baidu.com.
Which file are you try to download ? Which phone do you use ?
I tried the procedures you guys mentioned above, but my phone does not seem to be being flashed.
Everything seems alright, up until disconnect the USB cable and wait for 5 secs to reconnect, but after reconnect, nothing happen....
mine is F240S, does it matter? How do I extract DLL from TOT or KDZ files?
Thanks in advanced
Dennis
---------- Post added at 11:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 PM ----------
I actually finally got it flashed, all the procedures are correct, just need to time that 5 secs accurately.
Also, anyone with F240S needs to stay with the version of Flashtool that OP provided, any version higher than 1.4 seems giving me error.
Thanks very much for the info.
Dennis
Please help...
Guys plzzz help... I have F240s. first i was rooted on stock and then flashed cwm along with loki patch file (easy-cwm-f240s.zip file). i wanted EDGE on my
phone (i m in pakistan and only gprs works here on this phone) so i flashed panama rom by flash tool but lost the signal service.. i Wiped system,data,cache in CWM and restored data of my stock
rom from CWM but still no signals ( mobile model was still showing up e980h from panama rom) then i factory reset and flashed Cm 10.1 of f240s (i think i may have wiped system ,cache and date before it). now when i power on, LG logo appears on screen and in left top side it says:
Secure booting Error
Cause: boot Certification Verify
unfortunately i also had below 30% battery when i flashed cm10.1. NOW if i go to download mode and use mobile support tool
and flash tool to update it says: battery level is low and upgrade is unavailable, fully recharge ur battery and try again.
I Have used a battery stand charger to charge for 3 hrs but after checking phone software setting for 3,4 minutes it still says the same thing about battery again n again. should i let it charge to 100% no
matter how long it takes and then try or do something elsee... plzzz helppp

Hi @vandieutot. I think a guide, how to and tools are better placed in the General section. I usually never search within Q&A.

mtp driver problem
my phone is stuck in bootloop after I tried to flash a ROM, so I tried to use the TOT method but I having a problem the MTP driver installation failure, I tried all kind of drivers but still wont install, what should I do now?
Help!
I have a F400K model, I was able to root and flash the 2 custom roms (Sphinx /VTD) fine, but when I tried to flash back to factory stock, my phone now shows it's a F400L model for some reason. So trying to flash the F400K tot file doesn't work (It works with F400L though). Is there anyway to get back to the original F400K model?

From your first screenshot, I think you have the same issue as me, the phone is recognized since it wont get to that error if your driver is not working. I was able to flash F400L tot file on my phone even though I have an F400K model. Just posted and hopefully someone can help and provide details on what I need to do in order to flash the original F400K factory firmware on my phone.

Yes same thing happened to me, it turns out that its not a driver issue my phone accepted the F400L TOT file although my device is F400K it is strange.
my phone is stuck at factory reset status 2. Everything went fine until the last part and it failed...
EDIT: I installed the latest flash-tool and re downloaded the dll and tot files and its still failing at the very end....
EDIT 2:
I have tried again, and still nothing. It will sometimes get to 99% and then fail, and other times it won't make it past 11-12%. I re installed the latest drivers, flash tool, and re-downloaded the dll and tot files. Does anyone know how to unbrick it? The most it will do is get to factory reset status 2, but then if I run it again after it fails it won't find my phone, and it only boots into download mode. It's a never ending loop of that or factory reset status 2 no matter what I try. I would really appreciate any help. I have a F400S and I downloaded all of the correct files from the other posts. My phone crashed after flashing a ROM and now well, here I am.

After factory reset stays 3 don't unplug the cable and it should reboot and startup that's the ending step.

Hi there! Thanks for you reply I waited long enough for a reboot and I decided to unplug the cable, remove the battery and thank my lucky stars it rebooted up well... I managed to update to the latest version .. Version F400k10g.. (Since I'm in Korea). I read somewhere on the LG G3 forum that you can only unplug after " Factory reset status 3 ".. But I read that after I took the "risk"

Make sure of your model number!!! Then post the model number and I'll check online for the correct .dll and tot files.
Go under " Settings, About Phone, Software Information "..
If you can't get into your system .. check your phone package.. On the box, it should have your model number.

sorry you had problems
the error is one of the drivers lg
you should plug it into one of the main USB ports on your PC.
or rather entering device manager and re-assign drivers to ports.
Have you downloaded the lgup for lg g3 and g2?
Drivers are installed, USB debugging is enabled, LG PC Suite OK.not sure what else there is missing.
Download : lgup-g2-g3.zip
Solve it FIX
good after I found the problem LGUP
roms apparently change the model of the device as it changes cm11 to build Cyanogenmod 11 xx
AOSP - to AOSP rom 2 etc.
the solution would be to install a stock rom clean no matter if v10 v30 etc. The important thing is not having changed the model number and manufacturer.
I hope I have helped and sorry
that includes cloudy fa's roms

First install (LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5_CODEFIRE)
Second Install (LGUP_Install_Ver_1_14_3)
Enter the LGUP program that is probably hosted on your desktop
Select the Upgrade box and select the KDZ / TOT file
Wait for the process to finish (Do not disconnect the phone)
At 80% the phone will restart (not yet to be disconnected)
When you reach 100% the phone must have turned on or starting on the TMO logo
If it does not start
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----
If it does not start
---------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -----
If it restarts constantly and does not enter the system (It restarts before reaching the optimizing application)
Turn off the phone completely and remove the battery
Wait 10 seconds. And put it back
Press Vol- and on when logo is released and press them again.
Give you everything
EYE: all files on the internal SD card will be erased
A factory reset will be made and then it must be turned on normally.
If it still does not start, remove the chip (SIMCARD)
Well that's all if you have any questions please write
Sorry if I needed something, it's just that I'm new and I do not know anything about xda
I hope you understand.

good after I found the problem LGUP
roms apparently change the model of the device as it changes cm11 to build Cyanogenmod 11 xx
AOSP - to AOSP rom 2 etc.
the solution would be to install a stock rom clean no matter if v10 v30 etc. The important thing is not having changed the model number and manufacturer.
I hope I have helped and sorry

Hi !
How do I do all the above ?
My PC recognize the phone without problem, but LGUp won't start unless I "select a known model"... (LGUp window shows : Model = Unknown ; COM Ports = [COM5, CloudyG3] )
Problem is that my phone is softbricked after installing a new ROM, and I can only enter download mode (not even recovery). I just want to downgrade it and reflash a LG's stock ROM (or whatever ROM that would make my phone actually work !!! )
Can you help me do that ?

LGUP "UNKNOWN" and FlashTool failure with LG G3 (and possibly others)
When I downloaded and installed LGUP with the DLL installer stated to be for the LG G3, the program did not recognise the phone, reporting it as "UNKNOWN". The LG FlashTool also failed, reporting the IMEI and PID as NULL. After spending a lot of time on this, I twigged that the DLL file in the LGUP model directory was for the 8994 processor; but the G3 has an 8974, quite different and incompatible. I located the DLL installer MSI file for 9874 devices, uninstalled LGUP and the DLLs from Windows add/remove programs, ran the 9874 DLL installer and reinstalled the LGUP program, and everything worked.
The file is, amongst other places, on https://uptoandroid.com/download-lg-up-tool-for-lg-smartphone-latest/. Do not download DLL files for LG G4, LG V10, LG G3, LG Stylo, filename LGUP_Common_DLL_Ver_1_0_28_5 .msi, but instead For LG phones based on Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 SoC, filename LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5.msi:.

23 Aug 19: I find that I've rediscovered the wheel. Exactly what I said was posted in 2016 - if I'd found it, it would have saved me a lot of time!
okay let start, my friend gave me his LG G4 with BOOT LOOP issue.
so i did like in the video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TM9umec5aeo
the phone worked for 5 hours and back to boot loop issue. so in this time i made backup.
after it i follow this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/ilapo-infinite-loop-auto-power-off-fix-t3404421
but the friend phone has marshmallow android and i need lollipop android so i have flashed wrong ktz by mistake and phone gone to Brick mode.
so i search a lot in the internet MBN file for G4 and i found so i want to share it with you
just download the files from next linkaccording to your model
http://bit.ly/2maK3uL
or
Code:
http://forum.gsmdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=24303
the password for H815 is "Moyal Software H815",for other just PM to dev.
after i downgraded to android 5.5 i continue with
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/ilapo-infinite-loop-auto-power-off-fix-t3404421
and after it i reactive the reset cores with kernel adiutor.
right now the phone works well already 4 days.
Enjoy.
These are the exact same files as already given in another thread. They don't work for me.
Depending on QFIL version I have "Device not in firehose mode" or "too long to open COM port" error.
I have H815. Bricked the exact same way as yours.
Do you have any ideas what I can change/try?
Dear,
I have the same problem with a H818P.
Someone can help me!?
I`ve attached a screenshot with my problem!

Hey, I have struggled long time with this but finally I got it to work
I used this guide:
http://gsmmarhaba.com/threads/unbrick-lg-g4-brick-hs-usb-qdloader-9008-without-box.612/
But instead files for H815 i used ones for LS991 and QPST 2.7.425. Files were flashed successfully and now I have download mode
So try with other versions of mbn files as well as with other versions of QPST/QFIL. Good luck.
