I bought a unlocked and rooted AT&T LG Optimus G E970 from ebay. I tried to install CMW/TWRP recovery on it by adb and fastboot commands. When I typed "adb devices" the device model and serial number message showed on PC. But when I typed "adb reboot bootloader" or I manually press Volume+ and power key same time it couldn't be going to fastboot mode anyway. It just going to Android system. What is correct method and how do I do to get it into fastboot mode so that I will able to install recovery package? Is there any way to check bootloader? However, I read some different instrutions online for manually rebooting device to fastboot mode. I don't know what is right instruction for my phone. Thanks a lot!

Unlocked and unlocked bootloader are not the same thing. You can download the Feegee app from the market and then unlock the bootloader and install a recovery all in one go.

Hello Im posting my solution to how I had fixed my bricked LG G3 LS990. I bricked it a few days ago and searched tons of forums and youtube videos and it was tough trying to find a solution for this variant of the LG G3. And I had seen that everyone who was having the same problems I had couldnt find the solution either, but luckily somehow I had figured it out...I even took my phone to the Sprint store after my phone was getting "Security Error" and they couldnt even fix it and had to ship me a new one in which I no longer need since I fixed it myself...
My phone had went through these 3 phases in this order, so I also have the instructions in same order ( Be Sure To Follow All Directions Closely)

Hello and thank you for posting this info. My situation is a bit unique. I have a Sprint LG G3 that is rooted and has been running various ROM's. I want to go back to stock/unrooted and have followed the instructions in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/general/guide-how-to-restore-sprint-lg-g3-ls990-t2852042/post60463455#post60463455) using the LG Flash Tool to attempt to flash the TOT and DLL files for my device. But for the life of me I can't get it to work.
In the thread above I wrote a short post explaining what I think the problem is, but bottom line it gives me an error when I try to flash the files. So then I found this thread and thought this is great, I'll just grab the stock image files for the Sprint LG G3 ZV4 and simply flash them via Fastboot. Alas, when I try to do it with the phone off, or in Download or TWRP recovery mode ADB and Fastboot do not see/recognize the phone. If I have the phone booted up and plug it in, it will list the device (although it says offline next to it, so not sure why that is), but when I put the phone in recovery or download mode ADB/Fastboot Devices command will not list the device to show it is recognized. I assume the phone can't be booted up in order to erase and flash the various partitions. I have debugging mode turned on, the LG drivers installed, etc., what am I doing wrong here? Why doesn't the PC see the phone when it's in download or recovery, but only see's it when it's booted up.
All I want to do is return this phone to stock/unrooted ZV4. Please help.
Thanks

Sorry for the late response, I guess I dont get notifications..but I think I had the same issue, but as long as the cpu sees the phone once its booted up you should be able to flash the files from Step 1 using the command window on your cpu
@Celly624
I have a few questions.
When you where stuck in fastboot mode, did you try to pull battery and boot into recovery?
Which aboot version where using?
I've been in fastboot mode several times, and security error. For me it's a bad boot.img, ie not booting kernel or forgot to bump img. For me, pulling battery and going into recovery and flashing good kernel fixes issue. Also done the fastboot command to flash kernel/boot.img. But don't always have a computer around.
este fue mi problema FACTORY RESET STATUS 2

Thanks for unbricking my phone from the mess that the supposed Auto-Rec TWRP installer created.
For those who get the "Factory Reset Status 2" message, you need to close out LG Flash Tool, unplug the cable, pull the battery, push and hold the up arrow while plugging in the cable, restart the LG Flash Tool, go back to manual mode, and change the bottom setting from "Upgrade DL" to "Board DL", then resume at Step 29.
If you then get a MiniOS ATT screen with the "Don't touch!" message, just press OK. Now pull the battery, reinsert the battery, press and HOLD the power button. While continuing to hold the power button, wait for the MiniOS screen to go to the multi-option menu. Choose "Normal boot (+power)". It may take up to 15 seconds for the popup message to reboot your phone, so be patient. Choose to reboot it, and you're now back at stock.
If doing the above still keeps you at the MiniOS options screen, press the power button and choose "Factory Reset(+power).

I kept hanging at 89% FBoot Check Failed. This time I did what you said during the FBoot check: I held the power button through the MiniOS screen and hitting OK on the screen check. I waited 5 seconds, then HELD the power button down again while hit the "Normal boot (+power)", which rebooted the phone into the expected Android is Upgrading screen. Note that I used the LS990ZV8_00.zip, which has the ZV8 tot inside and the LGUP_8974.dll in the LG Flash Tool with the Action Mode set to Board DL.
Currently running Sprint original ZV8 for ls990 v5.0.1. Accepting over the air upgrade. Now gotta figure how to root....:laugh::silly:
Hello I bricked my g3 and I have only access to fastboot but when I try to erase or flash some partition I got these error message:
Code:
Error: Command never completed
Error: Auto CMD12 error
Error: Command completed with errors
Error: Command never completed
Error: Command timeout error
Error: Command completed with errors
Failed to send stop command
Failed writing block @ 1
I could access to a adb shell booting with a twrp image (fastboot boot twrp.img). Then I try to push a twrp recovery file and execute dd commands to copy recovery partition files but I think that I don't have access neither.
Thanks for your help
Any idea how to do this for G3 D855 European version?
I had this problem once because of misinformation on downgrading to ZV4. They failed to mentioned BOARD DL instead of UPGRADE DL. It was a simple fix by recreating the steps and switching the radio buttons.
gets tuck when trying to erase aboot
i rooted my phone and erased apps now i cant access google services and most app force close. im trying to flash back to stock firmware and i cant access download mode. ive been trying to fix this for the passed 2 months now and ready to smash the stupid thing lol.
HALP
Hey, everyone. So, I made a pretty similar mistake. I've had my phone rooted for a while, and, while trying to test a custom ROM (Cloudy G3, in case you were wondering) I managed to mistakenly flash the D855 version onto my LS990 phone. Of course, I was stuck in Fastboot for a while, but now the phone only lets me into download mode. I've tried entering Recovery mode, but that just takes me right back to download mode.
That being said, the LG Flash Tool recommended isn't doing squat. If I attempt to flash the stock LS990 DLL and TOT, I get an error telling me that my phone is the wrong version, as the last software flashed to it was, indeed, the D855 firmware. If I try to flash the D855 DLL and TOT, it gets to about 6%, where I get an error about partition change.
Considering that I may not have the right drivers, I reinstalled the LG drivers as well as Qualcomm drivers to be safe. However, my computer still doesn't register my phone as anything but "LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port," which isn't what it should read, if memory serves me correctly.
I have no idea what to do, and I really do love this phone... Can anyone help? Please?
unable to download fastboot files please help( error; requested file does not exist )

Hello I bricked my g3 and I have only access to fastboot but when I try to erase or flash some partition I got these error message:
Code:
Error: Command never completed
Error: Auto CMD12 error
Error: Command completed with errors
Error: Command never completed
Error: Command timeout error
Error: Command completed with errors
Failed to send stop command
Failed writing block @ 1
I could access to a adb shell booting with a twrp image (fastboot boot twrp.img). Then I try to push a twrp recovery file and execute dd commands to copy recovery partition files but I think that I don't have access neither.
Thanks for your help

LG Flash Tool no good
Where ever I get the LG Flash Tool it errors out even if I run it as admin and compatibility with Win8 so I bricked my phone and NO fix out there works.

Tried 11 times. This does not work.
- FACTORY RESET STATUS 2
I followed these suggestion & it worked on my LS990 (Sprint G3) : On LG FlashTool I switched to Board DL instead of Upgrade DL
Your phone will reboot to the AAT Screen – Click OK (Yes, it says not to), then press normal boot (+power).
Your phone will reboot and all should be well.
It seems to have helped a few people get past that screen :laugh:

Ok, this is getting very frustrating. I've been rooting phones since the day the G1 came out, and having gotten a v10 yesterday and tried to root it, all of a sudden I have become stupid. I have tried every type of method om this board to attempt unlocking the bootloader, rooting, and installing TWRP. I've even tried the Nexus Root Toolkit and the I-Root/V-Root methods, both on the phone and from the PC. Even though I "sometimes" am able to type "adb devices" and actually get the device #, many times, both when trying to get into bootloader mode or as with both KlicKit and NRT, it more often than not hangs at "waiting for device". Is there anybody that has had a similar type of difficulty that has figured out how to make this happen? I took it out of the box and started to do my thing, so I am assuming it has a locked bootloader? This should not be so difficult to accomplish. Any insights would be appreciated.

If you have a T-Mobile device you are able to root etc. Make sure you have usb debugging enabled, and tick enable oem unlock in developer options. I presume you have a driver issue. Just go ahead and reinstall the drivers and try again.

Hi Mark. Which drivers? I have literally tried to use 5 or 6 different ways of installing drivers: device manager/Nexus Root Toolkit/the full Android SDK/KlicKit/adb setup 1.4.3 and maybe two others. Do you know a source that I am missing? Why would my phone out of all of the thousands sold NOT have proper drivers installed? This makes no sense. Weird thing is I can get to the bootloader screen using the adb reboot bootloader command.

Can I ask what commands your running when you're rebooted into boot loader/fastboot?
I'd say to try the LG drivers first and if not go with the Samsung ones. They're relatively universal.
Im also having problems. Ive installed every driver from samsung lg google and universal drivers and still nothing. I can get adb to reconize the device and reboot my device. I type in fastboot oem unlock and it stays on waiting on device

Sure. Usually I am able to get into the bootloader(if adb devices recognized what's going on) where I get the LG logo and the words on the top left say "Welcome to Fastboot Mode". I put in adb reboot bootloader, which does get me there. Then, I put in fastboot oem unlock and that's when it hangs on waiting for device.

Exactly. I guess the "misery loves company" thing is operative here. If you do figure it out, PM me, I will do the same.
what does it say when you type "fastboot devices"?
I am 100% certain you have either a driver issue which you should look into in your device/driver manager on your pc. there's likely something broken (common problem). Or you do not have usb debugging/enable oem unlock checked. I'm leaning towards a driver issue. It is also possible that if what you say is true and have installed too many drivers that something is conflicting.

Progress!!! I was able to use Tech Know to unlock the bootloader. Now, if I can get the phone to behave enough to install twrp and root I will be good. But, KlicKit is not doing it, still hanging. And, when I type fastboot devices it just opens up another prompt and sits.
Edit: And, I am able to use fastboot reboot to reboot from the bootloader, but I get an error message when I try KlicKit, but it goes away too quickly to read what it says. OK, so now that I have an unlocked bootloader, do you have a recommendation of what method to use to install twrp and to root. (I have renamed the twrp file to "twrp.img" and I have both SU 2.46 and 2.52 on my external sd).

Just follow the instructions in the "how to root..." thread. it goes step by step and I believe there is a video tutorial as well. You'll need to do a quick search for this.

I literally figured this out 2 hours ago. It is a Driver issue but reinstalling a .exe will not work. This is what you have to do!(did this on Windows 7)
Boot up fastboot and plug into your pc.
Go into "device manager"
While in fastBoot your phone should be listed in "other devices" simply titled "Android".
You have to re select the Driver your self , do not choose for it to automatically search.
Look under the "Android devices" tab and if you have the LG drivers you should see something like "LG adb interface blah blah"
Choose that driver and fastBoot should work.
Try "fastBoot devices" in cmd it should finally recognize.
I've also heard success from selecting any "adb interface" driver
I think I'm gonna make my own thread and YouTube video to break this down further. I've also been and adroid user since the g1 and. I hate being asked "are you sure u ticked usb debugging?"

Hi Duece, thanks for that. I am ok up to where I actually try to root, meaning, I am fine with getting into the bootloader. When I type "fastboot devices" it does give me the model # and the word fastboot next to it. The bootloader is now definitely unlocked. It's the next steps (twrp/root) that I get stuck. When I use KlicKit, it does do something for a second and then it just closes. Have you successfully installed twrp and rooted? That's where I'm jammed up. Thanks...
Edit: although I have the twrp.img file on my ext sd, and I renamed it "twrp.img" and typed that command in when in the bootloader, but it says "error: cannot open twrp.img".

put the twrp.img in the same folder with fastboot, flash recovery by using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
After twrp flash ,shutdown/ restart to factory rest mode and go for 2x "yes". if entering TWRP fine, then flash a supersu 4.52 zip from sd
I am using 2.8.x twrp working fine

Aah, that would make sense. However, I did a search in Root Explorer and nothing came back with "fastboot". Do you know where the most likely place would be?

Do you have your twrp recovery working now?
fastboot is a platform tool from google. You should have it downloaded to computer(Win) and use it with CMD(command prompt)

No good. typed adb reboot bootloader, it went right there. Then typed fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.1-h901.img, it gives an error message: cannot flash twrp-2.8.7.1-h901.img. Typed fastboot reboot, went right back. The video's great, but if the commands don't take, it 's moot. If anybody figured this out (same issue), please let me know how. This is taking forever.

Positive. The code I am putting in is twrp-2.8.7.1-h901.img. That's what most things I've read say to do. The other thing I have been thinking about is that KlicKit is supposed to have everything pre-loaded, and even it won't do it. KlicKit gets me into fastboot, then something really quick happens and the command prompt screen closes. What driver system do you use? I've installed a number of them, then deleted them as well, just to try to make sure there are no conflicts. However, I now have two devices in device manager: "android device.lge mobile adb interface" and "portable devices/v10. Does one need to go, maybe?
Power off your phone , hold volumn down and connect usb to PC.
Do you see "LOCK STATE - UNLOCKED" ?
if yes, type "fastboot.exe flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.1-h901.img "
Dear Community,
I got my Note 3 Pro Snapdragon Version today and I tried unlocking the bootloader, installing root and TWRP.
Unfortunately after I installed TWRP, WiFi didnt work anymore so I wanted to go back to where I was before.
i tried flashing the GlobalRom with the MiFlash Tool but somehow I'm now stuck with a bootloop.
The phone starts up and shows the MI Logo but doesnt go on. I tried booting TWRP temporarily via fastboot commands so that I can try to flash flashable zip files
but it doesnt let me execute "fastboot boot xyz.img" anymore because my device is locked.
I would really love to hear any solutions or ideas. I dont want any root or something anymore. If someone has an idea Im very happy!!!
thanks a lot in advance and tell me if you need any more infos

1. keep vol + and vol - pressed while connecting USB to enter adb mode
2. check if phone is connected with "adb devices" in command line, if phone shows up, enter "adb reboot edl"
3. now you can flash via MiFlash

First of all, HUGE thanks for your fast answer!
Unfortunately I couldnt get this to work. Since I am stuck at the Logog screen here is what I tried:
Pressing both volume buttons while Logo Screen and plugging USB.
Pressing both colume buttons while fastboot screen is up.
These two didnt enter adb mode, I guess because of the bootloop I'm in
I also tried antering recovery mode with volume up + power button. Pressing both volume buttons didnt help either but when I am in recovery like that it shows my device in adb as "sideload" device.
Maybe that helps ? Can you give further advice or am I doomed?
My idea would be: Is it possible to reflash the device completely only usinf fastboot? The only thing I seem to be able to enter is fastboot...
Is there a way from fastboot to "working phone" ?
or maybe through the "adb sideload" state?
thanks a lot in advance!
Paul
EDIT
tried installing via "adb sideload xyz.zip" command but after shortly showing a status bar on phone screen it aborted and said "Total xfer: 0.00x" on PC screen .
Also: I read "adb reboot edl" brings you to download mode so you can flash something. Tried it but the phone just rebooted the normal system, so it stuck on Logo again...
search miui forum for unbrick, there is 2 or 3 method without opening your device
exp: http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=257227
Unfortunately they all do not work because they always require either a phone in download mode, and i only get to fastboot and adb sideboard or they require flashing something via fastboot but I can't do that either because it says my device is locked if I try...
Any suggestions how to flash a ROM with fastboot only or with adb sideload?

I've been facing the same (or a similar?) problem about a week ago but managed to get out. Knowing me for having a head like a sieve I made some notes, sadly quite rudimentary
Did you try to flash with MiFlash after "adb reboot edl"? If I remember rightly after "adb reboot edl" you got the logo like booting another way, but the light is blinking red. Then I could flash via MiFlash.
I'm quite sure that if you get a "reboot" after entering "adb reboot edl", your phone will be in edl mode.
I will try that this evening when I am at home again and report. Thanks

How did you unlock the bootloader, via official permission or that unofficial hack?

Only options you have right now are:
1) using test points method which is a but cumbersome and voids warranty if you care about that.
2) go to a xiaomi service center of you have any nearby.
It is hard bricked.
So there is absolutely no option to unlock bootlader via adb sideload or fastboot ?

Apparently, no! Whenever using unofficial methods, read precautions carefully and you missed all as I can see. Wait if someone can help you out.

That sounds nice and easy. I already applied for official unlock.
But: do you know if u can use the official unlock now? I can only access fastboot and adb sideload mode. Is it possible to activate official unlock from there? Or do I need a working ROM rather?
I would have thought that official unlock doesn't work from fastboot /adb sideload...

I have the same problem. I made the same mistakes as shisaya24. I have followed every procedure for unbricking and nothing works. I even applied for an unlock code and got it from Xiomi. I used their mi-unlock app which requires fastboot (pwr/vol-) but it gets to 50% and bombs out. It states it can't verify the phone. Can anyone please help me??

Hi,
Would like some help with a little issue i'm having,
Got a HD1910 model of the phone running the global rom and it seems to be stuck in 'fastboot' mode. Every time the phone reboots or pressing 'start' it will return back to fastboot mode.
Extra details:
It's locked and the developer tools were never enabled.
Occasionally it has shown `qualcomm crash dump mode` with no extra details.
Using this MSM tool it completes successfully but still continues booting into fastboot mode.
All buttons and ports are working.
Using ADB `fastboot reboot` reboots the device but still into fastboot mode
It started to happen after I woke up from installing the latest OTA official oneplus update.
Any help would be appreciated

Try this might work need to download full ROM
1.Boot into recovery
2.Tap on upgrade from USB
3.Go to your computer and open a command window
"Click Shift and Right click simultaneously"
4. Type the following command
Adb sideload file name.zip
5.Wait for the process to complete
6.Reboot your device

Thanks for the reply, but it seems entering into recovery just reboots back into fastboot mode.
Hmm, seems from your description as if your recovery is broken. You could flash a stock recovery in fastboot with the "fastboot flash recovery <filename.img>" command, for download of recoveries you could take a look at this thread and find one suitable for your device/regional version. Once you got a working recovery you can proceed as written above...
Good luck !

You could flash a stock recovery in fastboot with the "fastboot flash recovery <filename.img>" command, for download of recoveries you could take a look at this thread and find one suitable for your device/regional version. Once you got a working recovery you can proceed as written above...
Good luck !

Thanks,
But it seems the requirements state it requires a `unlocked bootloader` which mine is not. :/

You can try to reboot into stock recovery instead of flash it
"fastboot reboot recovery recovery.img"
And then follow the other steps explained on 2nd post
