Hi xda ! I'm hoping someone can help me ! I have a Verizon LG g3 I was messing with custom rooms and I flashed cyanongen lolipop and decided I didn't like,it ( I know weird) but I flashed back the the Rom I liked prior and realized my phone didn't recognize the SIM anymore. So I tried different rooms and have come to the conclusion it won't read Sims anymore. I want to unroot and go to complete stock, I have tried the different ways online and I can't find how to change port settings. If someone could assist me in either flashing back or any ideas on why it won't recognize Sims because I want to fix it that would be great! i have tried all the common sense jazz, even got verizon to try to fix it on their end but nothing will work. the steps on the help sites i find look soo simple however i always get stuck on the "change port settings" option as i can find that option in my device manager, even had a friend try on his computer he is better with me in tech and we both couldnt figure it out! i really hope someone has some tips for me because I hate to have a great phone like that sitting around !!
thanks

If you have installed the correct Verizon drivers for your vs985 then your phone should show up as a COM device under the Ports section of Device Manager in Windows, if you are in download mode.
I did the same thing last night I ended up doing a factory reset on my phone after going back to stock ROM. Made sure everything was working and then rooted again and put a custom ROM back on it and now everything works don't know if this will help you but worth a shot.
Try formatting your sim card
FIXED thanks all for the replys
I have finally fixed my lg g3 after fighting with my computer for not recognizing the drivers for tooo long
however now i have a new predicament
In the interim of having a none working lg3 phone i bought the droid trubo red version and I loved it however even its massive battery doesn't get me through the day, sometime half the day depending on what I am doing ( i am an extreme heavy user)
so my issue is which phone should I use? the droid was the fastest phone i have had but even it has started to lag with me so I ask you
LG G3 OR DROID TURBO?!
thanks.

Well i wanted to move to a faster phone and front camera
yesterday i sold me phone and got me a Atrix
figure i get it unlocked and use it in T-mobile
well i got RSD lite and started flashing the stock rom to it.
everything when fine till the end
at the point where it has to reboot. ir didnt do it.
so after waiting for it for a few minutes i try to reboot it and it didnt work
now i think i have bricked it all i get it a
SVF:105.1:2
Failed to boot 0X1000
My question is = is there a way to fix this? or is this a complete hard brick and i should get rid of it.

Did you flash a froyo sbf over a gingerbread one? If yes, the phone is bricked. Sorry!
When you turn the device on - does it say anything about NV FLASH and then turn off?
From what i got is it was updated.
i was trying to flash the old stock rom
i dont know if it was froyo or gingerbread
NV FLASH yes for a little while like not even a second then it turned it self off
anyways this morning i got up. and now all i got is a green light and nothing else.
i called motorola this morning and they guy that anwered said it had warranty so i sent it in.
maybe when it come's back i take every step needed and be carefull flashing it.
thanks guy for the quick reply
okay, I am seeing this alot, but everyone else unit seems to shut off before anything can happen, mine does not, it simply stays on. That being said, I am conducting an experiment, since my ATRIX was afflicted I baught a new one because I liked the webtop idea, so im charging my new one to 100% and then im going to swap out batteries and check the results. Has anyone seen any evidence at all that might suggest a possible fix? I will update you guys on the results of my experiment once completed, hopefully I can come across something that will lead someone to a fix if not find one myself.
So I am new to this forum and need help. I was trying to downgrade my LG G3 on Sprint from Lollipop (5.0.1) to stock firmware, however when trying to use the LG Flash Tool, it kept coming up with Fail USB open port fail. I figured that switching the ports might help, but it kept coming up with the same error message.
I am considering installing Cyanogenmod, but that is like the last ditch effort for me. I do not want to void the warranty yet (ive only had the phone for a few months now). I should have just hit factory default, but wasn't sure how far back it would've taken my phone. The latest version has been pissing me off when it came to the sporatic battery life drains. I now have learned my lesson on that, but would appreciate any help when it comes to getting my phone hopefully back to stock settings. I am gonna take my laptop to a local coffee shop in hopes that I can get some success on it. All the work has been on my desktop. I think the software hates my mobo or something.
I wanted to add that the beginning screen that shows the DBMS, which button am I supposed to select?
Seeking Stock Rom for soft bricked LG Sunset LGL33L on Straighttalk.
Hello, I need the help of xda on this one.
I installed kingroot on my LG Sunset (Lollipop) yesterday and everything was fine. Then I ran Super-Su-me and it soft bricked.
It won't get past the LG-Life's Good screen unless I leave it for 3 hours and then it moves to the Tracfone screen and stays like that.
I have searched all over for the stock rom for this phone and have not had any luck.
I am trying to use KDZ_1_4 to flash it but I need the correct .tot file and the .dll file
Can anyone help me on this one?
Thanks.
Anyone?
Tried to factory reset via stock recovery?

I have the same phone and same problem. rooted with kingroot, ran super-sume opened super su it downloaded and said it needed to reboot and in reboot it is stuck on lg screen. tried factory reset but it starts and goes back to lg screen and stays.
I'm in the exact situation as you. Have you been able to solve the issue yet?
I am pretty much having the same problem. My LG Sunset boots to the Tracfone screen and just sits there and does nothing. I cant even boot into recovery or anything.. I hope someone finds a solution to this cause I have not been able to use my phone for a few days.

Hey man, you need to get another phone asap. For tracfones, it's pretty much the end in cases like these. I actually got another exact (lgl21g) model from ebay, so that as soon as i get the time, will see how i can (if possible) get my softbricked device revived through my new one. But i have yet to research and at all costs, avoid softbricking my new one. As for now, no one else has any idea for a solution.
It kinda blows me away to know that the android community is completely oblivious to these kinds of recent low end, but useful android devices coming out on the straight talk service. For affordable androids, they're kinda neat. But it sucks that Tracfone has completely annihilated the essential utilities that such devices need in order to be revived by the user. I mean an actual bootloader menu to do modding and fixing through. The recovery option on these devices are pretty much useless.
But if you can. you should reply with a description that tells how your device was soft-bricked. As in, "did you use kingroot then Super SUME, which caused your device to freeze on LGs boot logo screen"? If so, then you are one of the many out there who xda needs to listen to, and heavily, i mean HEAVILY REGULATE these eff-ers [http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/paid-software/supersu-please-t3110954]. Because they need to specifically do more research into why their S~H~I~T~T~Y app is... well, S~H~I~T~T~Y! There are people out there promoting this app as though it is absolutely flawless and works on any android, but such a claim is far away from the truth, and these crap-app makers are only breeding more effing lying trolls. And sadly XDA mostly supports those big thugs with flagship phones problems ONLY. Not the little people like us, we're kinda on our own. SuperSUME is not supposed to force anything on the phone if it's not compatible, working something like kingroot if not being able to find a root method, then just telling the user it failed. Instead SuperSUME does something that effs it all up. Which is pretty much worse than malicious s/ware by itself.
So just hang on to your broken fone for now since it's not completely lost. Though you can take it into walmart and see if you can get a replacement, but I cannot promise you that i could come up with a solution, since I'm learning this crap from scratch as well. The only lead i have for now is to "Flash the device with it's firmware", which we know tracfone isn't gonna just hand out like free air. Sadly i'll have to reach out to XDA developers to help me once i describe this issue and experiment with whatever software out there that can help, if god willing.
FYI I just saw your post and Straight Talk sent me a new phone lol. Of course I didn't mention that I was trying to root it. The problem was actually McAfee Security. I didn't think about switching the setting off that locks the phone down if it's rooted. I made sure I did that on the new one and KingRoot worked just fine. ?
Good day everyone, I got a Net 10's LG L16C phone today, at first it was all good since I needed a new phone, but then I discovered this particular phone doesn't have a sim slot, which is bad since I don't like in the states so I can't use their pre-paid services, so I decided to use it for the apps and the like, I have an old galaxy 2 I777 which is still good but using the wifi and apps drain the battery fast, so it's just for calls.
Long story short, I want to install a custom ROM to the LG phone but I haven't had any luck finding any, does anyone know where I can get a ROM for this particular phone? or some way to upgrade at least to android 4.4.4? This phone is 4.4.2 by default. Thank you for your attention and a have a great day
After digging a little more.
I've been researching for the past few days to no avail, there doesn't seem to be a custom or official ROM upgrade for this particular phone, if someone knows something about it I would appreciate the help
(bump)
I don't think you'll find any. I had this phone gave to me so our team could dump the system and add it to our root/frp collection. FRP wouldnt apply to this but the one click root would. Also thought about a simple custom rom. Problem with these LG tracfone variants is you cant get into download mode. At least thats what our team has found out so far messing around with a Rebel now this Lucky. Might be a way but so far weve not totally looked into it. If you do find anything out there please share it with everyone. Im sure a lot of people with this $10 phone would be happy to have the advantages those of us with more higher end units have. I have to sell this phone after IF we get a dump. Wish me luck.
i have a LG L164VL it is rooted or was I don't use it as a phone anymore it's my streamer gotta have one right I do a lot of streaming to tv I'm a cord cutter in sorts i did a factory reset now it will not get past where it says looking for updates i thinking it might be bricked or might be easy fix.

Help with the messaging here

How did you root it?
KingO root
I used king O Root everything was great for a week or so then something happened it just started acting funny I shut it off and the next morning I powered it up and everything was downhill it stopped at the safe start so that's what I did and it took off to start loading. It was like it was factory reset it started going through the steps of that got past where it looks for the sim card well I took that out long ago its sole purpose is just for streaming and you know searching internet for streams it wasn't a phone anymore never used it as one other than at the beginning when I first got it got past that into the looking for software updates and that is where it got to and that's as far as it will go I don't know what do you think I have did a factory reset to try that was no help same stopping point I don't see any of the backup apps not 1 Ann I know they were there.....Thanks for looking I hope someone has answers so I can get my streamer going Thanks
well, if it is bric you can try anything and see how it goes? have you done anything besides KingRoot?
IDK if there is any downloads for this like stock images or whatever, guess not.
I'm hoping for some info of ANY sort other than 'no root' or 'brick'.
