Hello, first time posting but i have a similar problem to the other bootloops but i am not able to do anything through recovery mode. I pick an option like factory reset and it gets stuck. If i try to wipe cache it reboots into bootloop. I have tried flashing via download mode but i cant get the flash tool to even recognize my phone. I have the com port set to 41, even tried 11 but nothing. Im expecting something along the lines of replacing the board but im at a loss. Any insight would be wonderful.
The board is toast, replace it or the phone

Did you buy the phone from Verizon? Do a chat and tell them you heard the warranty was extended due to manufacturing issues.

I got my LG G3 yesterday night and I tried rooting it for hours, I was on Andrioid 5.0.1 and couldn't get it to work after 6 hours of trying so this morning I tried to downgrade back to stock firmware and now everytime I try I get the Factory Reset Status 2 screen and I am told to just remove the battery and it'll boot but nope it just goes back to the same screen. This is becoming a nightmare I have tried multiple PC's Operating Systems, drivers, firmware files, and multiple tutorials and I cannot fix this.
I think the issue is when the phone reboots instead of being a COM port it becomes a MTP device so LG Flash Tool can't find the device.
I really need help, I didn't plan on spending the whole day trying to fix this but it seems I am going to have to.

Select "board dl".
In the general section, stickied, is a thread on how to do it.
So, I'm im at a loss here... I haven't done anything to my phone today other than turn on the Webserver at Boot function in Adaway, which I'm guessing is the culprit here... but based on my inability to fix that, which I've fixed Xposed issues before, I'm not confident.
so I'm bootlooping on LG screen primarily, phone was working fine next minute it was off and wouldn't turn on. Took battery out, etc... thought it was the batteries at first, charged both fully, continued troubleshooting. Rebooted a few times it'd boot, show my unlocked Bootloader screen, continue as if going to TMO screen, back to LG screen.
So I tried to boot into TWRP via Factory Reset method. I follow the prompts and then the screen locks, randomly the bootloader unlocked dialogue reappears.
Computer previously recognized device via ADB, now it does not, even with updated drives and ADB/Fastboot. Had the device install itself a few times when plugged in, did not help.
I was able to boot into Fastboot one time, while in there I thought maybe it's an issue with TWRP, so I reflashed TWRP 3.0.1 through fastboot and ran fastboot with the twrp image command... screen locked and nothing happened.
I'm not sure what to do at this point without Fastboot being accessible through computer or regularly through manual method. TWRP is pretty much,... man I don't even know where TWRP is at this point it hasn't made a single appearance in this troubleshooting session.
Any ideas I'm missing?

If you can get fastboot working again try to just boot twrp rather than flashing it
fastboot boot nameofrecovery.img
Other than that try using lgUP to flash rooted MM if you can get pc to recognize phone

hey bud - thank you for responding. I actually by the grace of god, just got my phone to boot into fastboot mode again. It wouldn't even turn on since I wrote this post so I've just been browsing for alternatives. Literally on the LgUp page as we speak thinking that's going to have to be the route I take even if I lose all my data... at least I won't have a brick. I ended up using a method I've been trying all day, it's weird how it's hit or miss on when it works... held volume down and plugged in USB, not sure why it's working randomly even tried other computers, ports, cables... anyway thanks !

I Knew i was going to leave something out, if I flash rooted MM, couldn't that make things worse if I'm on TWRP for LP. I'll read the instructions on the up page, but at first glance I didn't see them talking about specific recoveries like on the eliminator thread..
You can follow toungkick's method and flash the .tot and kdz to get rooted mm, this will include the proper recovery
Choice is yours on the method but this way is smooth and rooted MM is great on this phone
But yeah, data will be wiped,
If you manage to make it into recovery you can try and dirty flash current ROM on top (no wipe) and see if that fixes things first so you don't loose any data

I'm honestly losing my mind over this one, I've gotten into Fastboot several times but never long enough to flash much of anything. LGUP won't recognize device and the method to get it to recognize the device by removing the battery isn't work. So I tried manually flashing images in Fastboot and also tried Nexus Root Toolkit as a last ditch effort.
The further I've gotten is flashing TWRP again, and reflashing a boot image...
Believe it or not I just booted into TWRP, it wasn't easy at all but the phone finally went through following the factory data reset method... I was in there for maybe 7 seconds and then screen went black and phone powered off.
I'm getting to the point where, since it fully booted once, booted into fastboot, booted into TWRP, I'm not convinced this isn't hardware related? But I'm not an expert there.
The only way, literally that I can get it into Fastboot is to take the battery out entirely, hit power a few times to drain it, hold volume down insert cable... the screen comes on with the battery indicator but it flashes a red question mark and I simultaneously throw the battery in while holding down volume... and fastboot boots right up ... I only have a few minutes each time and even though things are successfully clashing (I also erased the cache) nothings working.
I was in TWRP long enought o know that it appears all my data is still in there, was hoping to get to Xposed to delete... maybe I'll look into the xposed uninstall zip and see if that helps but really.... wondering if my batteries got screwed up somehow with these new cables I'm using. never read anything quite like this one
Closing loop here. Phone bricked for sure. Got replacment on warranty. Back up and running rooted MM tho with jun method.

What happened to the original phone?
Phone died on me, and now I'm stuck on the LG logo. Not actually fully booting.

I was never able to get it to boot. Even tried flashing through lgup and it would never make it through.. I took it to tmobile and got it replaced through warranty. Cost 5 bucks. You can manually boot into fastboot or download mode and flash images if your phone will stay on long enough
Im afraid my phone did the same thing. Ive done all of what you mentioned. I guess i have no other choice but to go to T-Mobile and exchange it. You say it only costed you 5 bucks? How is that..? I thought after you void its warranty ... U'd pretty much be stuck wid ****.???

I found this page (https://guidebelajar.blogspot.com/2015/12/guide-to-flash-bricked-bootloop-lg-v10.html?m=1) and am currently in the process of 'refurbishing' via LGUP.
I was able to get into download mode using the following method
"Now turn your LG V10 H900 (AT&T), H901 (T-MOBILE), VS990 (VERIZON) phone off, then click continuously on the up volume and connect your phone to your PC, "

My Lg G5 (Tmobile) keeps on rebooting to recovery mode (TWRP) no matter what rom I flash. I tried using LG Up software but no matter how many times I install the driver phone is not recognized. Firstly I flashed Fulmics ROM then I installed LineageOS (Cyanogenmod) after that phone was working fine for a while till I saw an update and tried updating it to new nightly version. Please help me out if anyone knows how can I fix this issue.
You probably need to put the phone in download mode and then try LG up otherwise try pushing a rom that works through adb

I am sure this method would fix it but I already returned my phone and got new one as I had 1 year warranty. I bought it from T-mobile and I locked the bootloader before turning in the phone so it doesn't look like I was trying anything fishy. Now instead of phone going to twrp each time it goes to boolop saying "device is currupted and won't boot". It won't go to recovery mode no matter what I do and hope I don't get charged from T-mobile saying this and that.
However, I am really grateful to all of you great people who tried their best to help and you sir actually threw me a solution but I was too impatient to wait for it. I know this method will work no matter what as I had been using this tool for my G2 in old days and fixed the worse bricks where I had to openup the whole phone take battery out and stuffs like this. I was looking for this method found everything but LG tool asked me for .dll file which I couldn't find anywhere and decided to give up on it...
Thank you for your help and now I know I am not going to be bricked anymore as I have this method to work with in future issues and am her waiting badly for Xposed to be available for Nougat.

Good to hear that, You are welcome,
And as you mentioned about "device is corrupted and won't boot", that's because you locked bootloader. And as you were using twrp which means modified system partition so phone said that. But you can still go to download mode and use the method to make it live or can try unlocking bootloader to start twrp.
I experienced similar situation. I thought I had to send my phone for repair. As I was able to put the phone to download mode, I used uppercut with downloaded kdz file from LG G5 development thread and restored my phone. I didn't use my phone for four days thinking that I had to take to a phone shop or send to service center. But after careful reading of unbrick tutorials, I brought my phone back to life. Now I can play flashing anything as I am confident that I can easily unbrick my phone.

A few days ago I got my G5 H830 and came with version 6.0.1 h83010i, looking for information on how to install custom rom, I read the post to install the .TOT file to be able to install TWRP and through this the Custom Rom, until there is Everything okay, I did everything right, but then I decided to go back to the Rom stock, on the night of that same day I saw that when I reboot my cell phone it stuck on the LG logo and it had some color pixels damaged (but no screen Damaged, if not because of small brick) then force a restart and continued the same, I did factory reset by stock recovery and then normal start, I went to sleep leaving it in 100% battery, and when I wake up in the morning the cell phone It is off, when I turn it on 5% and I get scared, then I wanted to go back to custom rom to leave those problems behind, but then when I install the TOT again and install the custom ROM it will restart half installed and any rom that installed it would stay Stuck and the LG logo and a bootloop until when it was flash the kdz several times until the cell did not want to ignite more, the pc does not recognize it or anything, I need help with this.
Hello to whom may come upon this,
I flashed the v20-g8 engineer-laf file on my lg g8 att lg820UMi. I cannot personally boot back into my phone, nor even go into factory hard reset. When I boot into factory hard reset mode it does carry me to the finalized, "Do you wanna really reset all personal data etc...". But it just freezes after I press yes, and does not do nothing. I was trying to bootloader unlock my phone, but it was the wrong file or wrong format. It freezes in DL mode initially booting into DL mode and I can't access fastboot. Check s/n and imei does and factory reset yes, but continuing to actually factory reset and pressing the final yes; it hangs. So I do not know what to do. Rather there is an hardware fix to this internally or to just throw this phone in the trash. the digitizer on the phone is cracked, but the oled panel is still intact. Maybe someone could buy it for the microphone pieces and frame, but the motherboard on this phone is ****ed. I guess the boot.img is corrupted or whatever the bios to booting is dis-logged. Can anyone help? I wish it would just run the factory reset program fully then my system could restore itself, but we all know that the lg g8x att version does not have an kdz to be flashed plus the computer cant pick it up or communicate with the phone because it freezes in DL mode. Please help. I actually sort of love my phone(s). First time ever bricking an phone and usually an way out the hole but its like lg forced my in a ditch. Bad thing is I actually advertised this phone pretty well. LG cough...cough...do better or stop making phones for att because ATT is pretty stuck up because there towers and routers do the talk these days then their software. Ugh... Wasted my stimulus money

I can't enter into dl mode at all...my phone is fuccked....
Did you come to any kind of solution? im in a very similar situation.
Hi,
So I've had a lot of trouble getting TWRP flashed to this phone. After a bunch of tries I got stuck in a bootloop but I was still able to enter fastboot and recovery. I then flashed the stock fastboot ROM which fixed it and I was able to get back into the system.
I then hooked it up to my laptop again, but when I went to turn it off to get back into fastboot mode it just doesn't do anything except bootloop. I get to see the Redmi logo for a few seconds, and then it just endlessly reboots.
I can't enter fastboot nor the recovery, otherwise this would've been an easy fix. I also can't turn off the phone. Does this mean I'm ****ed? I saw the post before me where somebody seems to have the same issue, but their phone doesn't show anything on the screen at all, which is why I'm not sure if I hard bricked it or not.
It's strange too, because I have plenty of experience flashing bootloaders and ROMs, even with other Xiaomi phones, but this one has been a pain in the ass from day one. I made sure to not use anything not meant for my region (EEA) or phone model (Camellian) so I have no clue what went wrong. Any ideas?
