Hey guys. So my V10 H960A, as many others, bootlooped. Read the forums. Tried to use LGUP to put new firmware. But I'm getting errors.
Error: 0x2BC, Invalid command response code = 0x80000202.
Also I'm using Uppercut. But nothing is working. Do you know how it can be fixed?
Make sure you use right image, there is small difference in different version, only one worked for me

How can I be sure if I'm using the right one?
Found the right one. But even after successful flash, phone still keeps crashing. So I guess nothing I can do with it myself.
I got the same problem, but worse!! because I have the h960a but it isn't the european version, so I can't get the bootloader unlocked , I'm on nougat and I can't go back to lollipop! don't know what to do! I also would like to convert the kdz into tot to edit it but I don't know how. If someone can explain how to make a tot file, great!

Extract The .rar
Open The Setup File And Install LG Flashtool
Right Click On The Shortcut Created On Your Desktop And Open File Location.
Copy The .dll Files From The DLL Folder To The Previously Opened Location And Replace The .dll In Flash Tool Folder If Any.
Open The Flashtool,Select The .dll Then The .tot/.bin File And You Are Ready To Flash The Firmware,Connect The Phone In Download Mode When Asked.
Note :
I Don't Know Whether It Works For N4 Converted Devices.I Had Successfully Flashed Stock .20 .bin File With It.But I Suggest To Use This Only When LGNPST Does Not Work/Fails To Flash The FW As For Me.Please Don't Perform Unwanted Experiments With Your Device Or It Will Result In A Hard Brick.
This Guide Was Originally Created By madmack @ Optimus G Pro Section So Thanks To Him.
I was Searching For The .dll File For Our Device And Found It So Decided To Create A Thread.And Those Who Are Thinking That The Required .dll Is The Same That We Use For LGNPST,NO,This Is A Different .dll
It Did Not Ask For Unlock Code When I Flashed The Stock JB FW.But As Posted By madmack there is A Possibility That It Can Ask For Your Unlock Code.So Proceed With Caution.
Again This Is A Alternate To LGNPST And Only I Have Successfully Flashed The Stock FW.It Is Recommended That Unless It Is Tested By 4-5 Experienced Users,Its A No Go For Noobs/New Users.
And Be Advised That This Process Will Wipe Your Internal Storage.
Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing.
Edit: There are many more things to do in his (madmack) thread... Did u follow them all? Or for us we do not need all those steps? Let us know before someone bricks.. I use LGNPST but if anyone tries this.. at least they have a better understanding. thanks again for sharing.
just a heads up.. TeenyBin does not work in LG Flash. There are extra CRC checks which I haven't been able to bypass yet. This may change in the future.
also, not sure if this version of LG Flash is same as the newer one I use but I have to set the COM port to 40+ for LG flash to see my device.. altho maybe I'm missing something. I have to go into windows device manager and manually change the COM port used for the phone ( its in properties ).
LG Flash is no better or worse than LGNPST in my opinion. On the plus side.. there's no dll to register... and options are good

I've try to found the download link for the Lg Flash tool on this page, but i haven't. Can you fix it or explain? Thanks anyway.
Which .TOT and .DLL files will you be providing? I need the .DLL and .TOT file for, of course, the AT&T Optimus G E-970 US version! I flashed my wifes phone cause it boot looped and the .TOT used was SUPPOSED to be this file but it is the Korean FW. Now my wifes phone will not update via OTA because it changed her IMEI number. I need to get her phone back to stock 4.1.2 US VERSION!

Here is the file you need to get her phone back to STOCK U.S: http://downloads.codefi.re/g33k3r/LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013.zip I'm not sure on the DLL file, I use LGNPST so not sure if they are the same but attached it also just incase you can use it.. stock firmware file above is a .tot file so if you need to you can just change it to .bin if you need to.
Thank you blake but no. That is the fw file that turned her phone Korean. So may people are under the impression this is the stock US fw but it isn't. I even had another person here check their phone and his too in fact says "Lg Electronics Korea".

Where do you go check to see if its U.S or Korean?
All settings--> about phone -->phone Identity.
It's under settings-->about phone-->phone identity.
I had another person tell me that's normal because it's only the "manufacturer" info. Which im told this phone is manufactured in Korea. I don't know. All I do know is everyone is saying this is the stock fw for this phone but my wifes phone has changed. The start up screen is different and so is the shut down screen. Example, when her phone would shut down, she would get the AT&T logo and sound. After flashing this file she gets the blue circle and no sound. I do know that 4.1.2 is different depending on the region the phone is in. I don't know anything else that would explain this. Maybe this FW file WAS a different region but it was stripped out and converted somehow?

After a little checking I found out the same thing, It was normal as it was the place of manufacturer. I'm not sure what the problem might be but as far as I know that's the stock firmware for the phone.. You might try this one out http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22901594685177912 you just boot into recovery do the normal wipes and flash through recovery, its supposed to be stock except for being rooted and as far as I know those are the only two stock files floating around for the phone...
Thanks Blake. Can you confirm for me that this phone will NOT get OTA updates if it's changed in any way, including rooting? It's what I was told by someone else. If that's the case then I guess there really is nothing wrong with the phone except those weird unexplained small changes.
I've got all the correct files download and I made it so far as to try to actually flash the phone, but it fails and gives me a wrong model number message because it's detecting my phone as a E960 (it's an E970). Any ideas? I had installed the latest CM11 ROM over some encrypted data and now I'm locked out (old encryption PIN doesn't work) and I can't restore it to stock.
can someone help me with a .tot or .bin stock for lg l70 d320n? cuz i"ve looked for it everywhere but couldn"t find anything
need help bad.
i got this phone from a friend and it originally had cm11 on it. the phone in question is the lg e970. i wanted to get back to stock. so i downloaded the correct firmware and added it to my external sd card. using twrp before i proceeded to wipe the phone via twrp. when it was finished i restarted the phone into twrp and went to install the stock firmware and i could not find my exsd card. twrp does not recognize it at all. so now im stuck with a phone with no os on it. i can ge into twrp and download mode, and when i just boot the phone it goes to lg logo and stays there. i need help in trying to figure out how to get stock firmware back on phone. i am used to samsung phones and odin. so im a noob when it comes to lg. i am very tech savy when it comes to computers. plzzzzzz any help would be great!!!!!!!! and appreciated
I can not add .tot file in LG flash tool
I have unrooted my lg g3 before on another computer. But i can't add the .tot file with my new computer. I am doing everything the same.
Does anyone have any ideas?
So, its been a rough time with this phone. I received it rooted and im really a noob to any of this, its a verizon phone, its labeled outside, and when you remove the battery it says model VS985. But in the settings it says otherwise. I placed an att sim card in it, and it worked fine, i just had some errors on the rom that i have no idea how to fix, it all just seems like a hassle to me, so i decided to unroot it to the best of my ability. I managed to download everything and when i ran the lg flash tool, i selected the firmware i downloaded, the verizon one, but when i tried to run it, it would say "Device Model is different" "factory model check error" or something like that, it would identify the phone has D850, which is at&t version.
So i went ahead and said **** it, i downloaded that version and went with that, something messed up and it ended with factory reset status 2 instead of 3.
So i had to select BOARD instead of UPGRADE in the flash tool. and it reset everything, booted with att logo and everything, now the only problem is i don't get any signal, at all. Any help?

Somewhere in the g3 forums is an unbranded DLL file. It is my understanding from reading about it previously, you need to use that to allow you to flash the proper firmware. The DLL file was made to fix this exact issue from what I read before.

I wish I could point you right to it, unfortunately you may have to browse similar help threads to yours until you find it.
I have the exact same problem but mine is seen as a d855 when it is a vs985 if you can find that .dll file please tell me as well! I am going to search for it now

If you are 100% sure you do in fact have the Verizon LG G3 (VS985), replace the Verizon DLL file with the Generic LG G3 DLL below. This error is most common if you have changed the Product Name, Product Model, Display ID, and/or Build ID entries in the build.prop
The generic dll file is on autoprime's site. It's named LGUP_8974.dll and can be found here- http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G3 Use that along with the Verizon firmware Instead of the Verizon dll
Hawkswind thank you so much!! that worked for me now i am going to flash back the verizon .dll file
Thank you.
Firstly, I apologize if this has been asked. And I'm sure it has. Before we get into the " do your research" rebuttals, I have been trying to get this done for about 2 weeks now. What i'm trying to do is root my phone and install a custom recovery. This is my first LG phone ( im coming from Samsung). I am on Lollipop. I understand that I have to revert back to 12b. So as I do this, I see that we use the LG flash tool. I am having a terrible time in getting this to work even as I follow the instructions on youtube ( although im starting to wonder if these are out of date). Main Issues tend to be that they call for a .kdz file and all I find for downloading are .tot files. What is the difference here? Another Issue im running into is the fact that I cant even get signed into the toolkit. I keep getting an error message. Unable to login and what not. I'm guessing it has something to do with the .dll file? Anyway. I'm not a pro by any means, but I just feel like I should be having some rom fun by now Can I get anyone willing to help me further please??? Cheers ahead of time!!!!

go to the general verizon forum and look at op #2 in my sticky Reference thread. all the drivers, tools, directions, and links are there.
i prefer to use the TOT method, have never used the kdz, but each uses a different flash tool and instructions.
the instructions in the flashing stock threads linked there are very good.
try following those threads, and forget youtube.
after you pick a direction, and run into issues, post back with which method, and your issues. then it will be much easier to help, rather than me posted a step by step novel that for the most part already exists.

There are two different flash tools. The official LG flash Tool, which requires TOT and DLL files. And the unofficial KDZ tool called "LG flash Tool 2014", which only needs a KDZ file. Use either one to get back to 10b firmware. You can then use Stump root to root it. After that, you can install TWRP Manager from Play Store. And from TWRP Manager, you can put in your phone model and it will download and install TWRP for you. If you want to, you can then follow the Jasmine rom thread to upgrade back to Lollipop using TWRP. I personally prefer to stay in 10b as I found it to be very stable and after I un-install the Verizon bloatware using Titanium backup, it is quite smooth.
Thank you both. I'll give it a try here in a bit. It helped a lot no one there to compare two completely different setups I did not know that thank you both again

UPDATE.... I am now rooted with TWRP. Once again thanks to both!!
Hello all,
In the process of rooting the phone and flashing careless i managed to flash a H901 ROM on a H960 phone. After noticing the horrible mistake i tried to get back to H960 using several methods but to no avail. Here's a list of what i tried so far, followed by what i think i can try next.
1. Tried getting back to stock using this tutorial. LGUP detects my phone as H901 and won't let me flash H960 kdz saying "KDZ file is invalid".
2. Tried using a hex editor on the KDZ file to change any H960 to H901 thinking it might trick LGUP into thinking it is flashing the correct thing. Didn't work either.
3. Tried flashing KDZ file with LG Flash Tool but it says it can't connect to server and stops.
4. Tried updating it with LG Bridge but that also failed (can't remeber the exact error message, but it wasn't anything specific, just something ambiguous about not being able and how i can try to reconnect the phone)
Now, the good parts:
- i still have access to download mode
- have TWRP installed and working
What i think would work is to get a flashable H960A .zip file so that LGUP will see it as it is. Another idea i thought about is to ask any of you who is willing to help me out with a TWRP backup from a H960 model.
If you guys have any other ideas, i'm willing to follow your instructions.
Thank you for taking the time to read about my mess.
Same problem here, really hoping to get it fixed too
Hex editing will work. Can you ss on how you edit it?
@devcon69 Sure, here: https://imgur.com/a/m5dMg are 2 examples of versions i modified in hex(from H960 to H901) all instances of H960 i found were replaced.
Hi all, i finally managed to undo the damage by editing the hex data on a different KDZ file. Either the first time i tried was on a wrong file or i did it incorrectly. The file i edited now is THIS one. I will edit the post with the modified file for H901 in case anyone else needs it.
Thank you all for the help and attention offered
EDIT: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AurbfgIx--Amk0Q7_l6fX60b0T0Y
Hi.i get Error: Error Code= 0x81300302, MD5 checksum error when i try with u hex editored file. Maybe i have to try to download u file again and try ?
Sorry my foult. Its okay now
Could you enlighten us as to the steps you took that accidentally loaded a H901 firmware onto a H960A device?
Loading H901 firmware onto other V10 devices has been suggested as a potential method for unlocking the bootloader of other devices. This seems risky, but I'd very much like to hear reports of success/failure.
Did your H960A have an unlocked bootloader prior to accidentally installing the H901 firmware?
Hi
Can u make a simple tutorial to how we can change the model in the tot file and what app u use to install the firmware?
i have H961N (Dual SIM) and need to install rooted MM but my model still not rooted, just lollipop, so need to install H960a or any other model has a rooted MM.
Thanks in advance.
What you've typed worries me. There are 3 spots in the file that you modified and changing the third could well cause oddities. I would suggest you try running the command `adb shell getprop ro.lge.factoryversion`.
What is the output of that command? If it is a string that begins "LGH960" then my concern isn't an issue. If it is a string that begins "LGH901" then you've still got a problem.
For folks who wish to get this done by computer, try the "chkdzdev" tool from my LGEtools. This is simply a tool to modify the fields mentioned and should make it possible to accomplish this task without a binary editor.
good nights and days that have this problem I want to go back to Stock 4.4.2 48a but I get this error can be?

48A is 6.0.
4.4.2 is KitKat
Try searching threads on here. It took me a LOT of digging, but I found the answers. Every way that something went wrong for someone on here, minus bricking my device, happened every time I tried to root. the .kdz method absolutely would not work for me. the .tot method, however, worked with lg flash tool but the .dll file being lgup8975 from the .zip of the same name as stated in the previous stately statement, but then again, what state is your phone in. is it happy?

I'm also trying to downgrade from 48A.
Did you mean lgup8974.dll? I can't seem to find lgup8975 anywhere, and I get the same error with lgup8974. I've tried following every guide I could find, as well as improvising, all to no avail. I'm about ready to offer of $50 to anyone who can successfuly downgrade my phone...
Edit: Nevermind, I figured it out. Phone is VS985WK... Guess I'll just have to sell/trade it...

You can use the 31B dll file to restore or as in my case i flashed 24B KDZ that worked for me
