I was factory resetting phone because it was having some problems with the camera, and that's when I accidentally dropped it, causing it to soft brick (I can turn it on, but it stays on the LG logo, and as I said, I can't enter download mode. However, I can access recovery mode). The problem is that I can't make the computer to recognize it (when I connect it, it doesn't appear any port option, only the universal serial bus controllers followed by an "unknown device". This happened before I bricked my phone.), which makes the situation even harder. Besides opening it and retrieving the mainboard, is there any other option? because I'm not 100% positive that I'm not going to be able to do that. PLEASE help!
*I'm not an expert with phones, so if there's an answer, try to say it on the most detailed and basic way, if possible
Dropping it wont cause a softbrick in your case theres two possiblitys either A u droped it and damaged internally or B when u dropped it the battery fell out while resetting and uve corupted a file but probly the first. Either way this guide is for the g2 but it may give u some insight. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142

I downloaded a stock firmware for lg g3 d855, stored it in my sd, and when I launched it in recovery mode it said "Failed to sysmapfile '/external_sd/download/<name of the rom>.zip".

But in order to use LG tool I need to have my phone connected to the PC, right? Here's my question: is there any way of fixing my phone without having to enter download mode, or in this case, connect it to the PC?

I did everything and nothing happened. I pulled the battery, put it back, hold the up button and then plug usb and again the lg logo came for a few seconds, followed by a charging battery animation. Once I plug in the usb, I hear the typical windows sound that you get when you connect a device, but it says that an unknown device has connected.

My problem is that my PC won't eecognize the phone, so when I execute a command in fastboot mode, the window stays in < waiting for device >, and I guess that stays until you connect your device.
Also, I'm having trouble understanding the concept of fastboot mode, is it the same as download mode, recovery mode, or it has nothing to do with that?

I downloaded ROM MANAGER app, and I used the option "Install ROM from SD CARD" to try to install the official ROM V20e.zip. During the process, and restart the device no longer functions.
the device gives no heartbeat, no charge, no power on. The PC does not recognize it when plugged into USB.
The device died ...
What do I do?

You need to manually enter recovery. I don't have that phone so I don't kbiw if that rom is even the correct rom for your phone. To enter recovery on most devices hold volume up, home button and power. Roms are flashed in recovery not apps.

And is your battery full? Does adb recognize it?
If the rom is definitely for your phone I don't believe you've actually hard bricked.

Search man. Dont give up yet. Are you 100% sure that rom u tried to flash was for your device? If it wasnt then yes u may have a brick. If you're sure it was thwn keep searching there may be hope still. Maybe even try the method u used to root in tge first place?
? http://bit.ly/18WHgY4 ?
It might bricked
At first make sure your battery is healthy and try to charge it,then use one of unbrick methods available,take your phone to download mode and flash one of official p936 *.KDZ roms
it's better to flash android 2.3 versions for unbricking

Yeah not good. Basically the phone is an expensive paper weight now. I had the same thing happen to me a few months back and had to get a new phone. Your options:
1. Contact your phone company and see if it can be handled under warranty.
2. Contact LG.....same thing.
3. Spend $50-$100 on having a third party fix your phone.
4. Buy an expensive j-tag box and hard restore your ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1628254&page=1

Hello all, I have a problem with my LG oprimus G pro:
I have updated to official 4.4.2 and it was a bit buggy. So I decided to flash CyanogenMod
So the first thing is to root the phone I did that from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2695263
post #4 guy named galapagos has roottool.kitkat.zip attached. So I downloaded roottool.kitkat.zip unpacked it to "root" folder
folder tree:
--------root
--root.zip
--adb.exe
--AdbWinApi.dll
--AdbWinUsbApi.dll
--StartRoot.bat
and ran the StartRoot.bat that I found inside.
All it did was reboot the phone to stock recovery waited for me to click install from sideload and it than executed next command:
.\adb.exe sideload root.zip
the phone rebooted, and I installed rootchecker app to test if I had root. The test was positive. cool :laugh:
now I wanted to install CyanogenMod I downloaded the latest build from here http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=e980&type=
I renamed the file I downloaded to root.zip placed it in the folder where StartRoot.bat is (replacing the old root.zip) and ran StartRoot.bat once again.
the phone verified the root.zip and started to install it. :angel: In the middle of installation it aborted the installation and rebooted the phone. it will not boot to android system (I wonder why ) instead I am greated with LG security error after witch the phone turns itself off.
I have tried getting into download mode buy key combination= hold volume+ and volume - together and connect usb. It only starts charging.
when I press volume down+ home+power it takes me to factory hard reset. but the reset changes nothing...
do you have any ideas how I can unbrick my phone? Will USB jig work on LG phones?

Hello everyone, its been a while, thainks to all for trying to help me
In case anyone is wondering, after I realised I couldnt do anything myself, I gave the phone to phone service.
Acctualy, I gave it to couple of services, some of them didnt know what the problem was, and they were unable to Jtag it.
The others said it was the problem with the emmc chip.
the last service I gave it to (as I understand) tried to flash it with firmware? that isnt made for E988.
Now when I power it on the screen is blank and the button led is changing collers.
I have accsepted the fact that the phone is dead

yea, i was going to say hold down volume + and plug in usb cable to get into download mode. if that doesn't work, it's a world of headache.
it's not just the phone you should check if youre having problems flashing/rooting/going into download mode, you should also check your computer, do a reboot or try reinstalling your mobile drivers and the apps you are going to use.

Lg makes it damn hard to completely brick a phone. I've seen so many people resurrect their phones from some of the dumbest sh!t you could do. There's a way just have to find it. If the phone's recognized by adb then someone could dump the boot, recovery, downloadmode partions and you could flash them back. You can try all the unbricking guides. There is a way to fix these 99% of the time I promise, just don't give up.

He tried that tool already. Well it was a modified version of uptest that doesn't require all of the extra steps. I was doing some reading and it looks like most lg phones are capable of adb turned off in charging mode so that's a fantastic idea you have about adb. I have the full kdz dump I can upload the second I get home.

If you already installed the drivers before you don't need to install them from the support tool.
Hi all, I come to you as my last resort.
I have spent hours on google trying to find a solution to my problem.
This is what happened.
I store my ROMS on an external SD and sometimes i get the error that it is being removed unexpectedly...sometimes..anyway.
I booted into my TWRP and went to flash DarkKnights ROM..this ROM was something like 1.7 GB i think and after completely wiping the device (System, data and cache) i proceeded to flash the new rom..However it flashed very very quickly which i found strange but proceeded to restarting my device.
After that my phone has been completely dead!
What i think happened is that the EXTERNAL SD malfunctioned during the installation and im left with absolutely nothing on my phone.
I cannot enter recovery or download mode!
The only sign of life is when i plug it into my computer and it installs a driver that is the androidnet driver not the qualcom driver that some people have had and fixed.
I am open to any suggestions as you truly are my last resort.
Haven't really got much to say in the way of helping you mate, sounds like you're in a real Pickle :/
I'm sure someone here has a solution, there'd surely be SOME way to resolve it, we've got some pretty talented devs that do some amazing stuff so someone should be able to help ya somewhere.

But of course , the fastboot command has to work ...
After that you should find recovery and download mode
Fastboot doesnt work for D855...
You can try flashing the TOT file with the old LG Flash Tool but im doubtful it will work

For that install this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979&nocache=1
after you can apply fastboot commands
If you want to find custom recovery, flash kitkat aboot, kitkat laf and twrp recovery
you can have all this files in this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/d855-one-click-root-twrp-recovery-t3072767/post59895642#post59895642
Download the script and extract it. In the folder there are all files (aboot, laf and recovery)
But of course , the fastboot command has to work ...
After that you should find recovery and download mode

Yes im sure! my phone is completely dead and the only sign of life as i said is when the driver gets installed on the computer when i plug it in.. Thank you for your reply though.
Try LG mobile support tool (old version) : http://tool.xcdn.gdms.lge.com/client/app/B2CAppSetup.exe
Even if you have not download mode, you can try. Install the tool
Try to boot on download mode, you have error message
run LG mobile support tool
choose Additional functions then Upgrade of the recovery after error
At one moment the tool will say that there is not of g3 connected, reattempts starting in download mode or presses on the button to power. Try several times both.
If it work, the software is going to download the last one kdz available for your device and him(it) to fall in love by following
You can always try this solution, with a little luck ...
I have tried all your suggestions but i still have no luck..i tried the tot method as well and it comes up with an error message of 'download fails'..there must be some way to fix this!!im left with the driver AndroidNet being installed on the computer and a phone that cannot enter recovery or download mode. however i can hear the phone working on the inside if i listen closely..if you have any other suggestions please share!
Update:
I was playing around with the phone and when i plugged it into the computer the screen came on and showed me battery low..also the led light on top started flashing red as it does when the phone's battery is low..I dont know if this will help in finding a fix but im hopeful.. :/

Hello my friend..All i did was plug the wire into the computer and then into my phone..and because my battery was very low the screen turned on and showed me the battery low screen..then the led started flashing..and finally the phone switched off completely..Thankfully i have another battery to continue my testing and trying to fix it..but apart from that that happened with the battery im back to square one where my phone is completely dead again and the only response i get is the AndroidNet USB driver being installed on the computer.
PeterGeorgiou said:
Hi all, I come to you as my last resort.
I have spent hours on google trying to find a solution to my problem.
This is what happened.
I store my ROMS on an external SD and sometimes i get the error that it is being removed unexpectedly...sometimes..anyway.
I booted into my TWRP and went to flash DarkKnights ROM..this ROM was something like 1.7 GB i think and after completely wiping the device (System, data and cache) i proceeded to flash the new rom..However it flashed very very quickly which i found strange but proceeded to restarting my device.
After that my phone has been completely dead!
What i think happened is that the EXTERNAL SD malfunctioned during the installation and im left with absolutely nothing on my phone.
I cannot enter recovery or download mode!
The only sign of life is when i plug it into my computer and it installs a driver that is the androidnet driver not the qualcom driver that some people have had and fixed.
I am open to any suggestions as you truly are my last resort.

Make sure your Battery is charged and hope and pray your Phone will have USB Debugging enabled.

Don't get it with >>>>Open terminal in ubuntu then type: do i open terminal in computer or in the phone. If open in the phone, its impossible because the problem we had right now is when we connect the phone with PC, the only thing show up on computer is LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port. but our phone screen still off even the system is boot in.

Thank you very much for the thread you posted..i tried it but the thing is..my phone has literally nothing on it so when i put each file manually into the phone i dont know which sdb to put it through to..as the thread says it should give a lost of all the system partition files but since my one doesnt have anything on the phone it does not find them...
However, i did manage to establish a connection between the phone and the terminal in linux so im thinking maybe i have to flash each file manually that i can get from a system dump of a g3 and maybe thay will work..what do you think??

Here the same method on Windows : http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/choise-unbrick-qhsusbbulk-qualcomm-9006-t3093844
Yes if you can establish a connection between the phone with the Terminal (linux) or AOMEI Partition Assistant (windows) , you can flash the partitions (aboot, boot, laf) to have after download mode and then apply a kdz
other method ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/unbrick-lg-g3-qhsusbbulk-qualcomm-9008-t3072091

i am having the same problem since this morning.
Phone is bootlooping again and again. Cant enter recovery/download mode.
but some how just now managed to get into download mode, flashed stock kdz, it installed completely (100%), but again when it rebooted after the flash, same boot loops have started and am not able to get through.
this problem is really weird.
Any clue on how to check if i have a Qualcom port or LG port?
You have to force it into the qualcom port with the pin shorting guide
---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------
Again i stand corrected the g2 bad a ms dos script that pushed the partitions on the g3 wilzcracker aparntly pushes them so just follow the guide it works
