I got my hands on a g8x and its Qcom 9008 bricked; no download mode nothing...i downloaded the neccessary Qcom drivers and programs and after being in the partitions manager in QFIL I discover the partitions are gone! All of them!
I have the firehouse and the .KDZ, .DZ, even the partitions as .img files I got from another G8X. How do i restore this phone?

woops didn't put this in guides, sorry
This should work for any KDZ firmware of any LG Device, but figured I'd write this for the Wing, as so far, its the only LG phone I own and the one I'm most determined with
This is not a full Root Tutorial. This is a step in the correct direction though. These are the After-Steps, so bootloader unlock is still needed. Sorry
What You'll need
- KDZ Tools (see attachment -- virus total scan just because: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file...zODc2ZTViOWQ1MTlmN2Q0NzFiMjI6MTYzNzgyMTYwNg==)
- Firmware KDZ file
- Magisk Manager installed on device that IS NOT your LG Wing (at least for me, explained below)
Instructions (video coming soon)
1.) Download KDZ Tools and extract them to a folder somewhere.
-- I usually make one on my external drive and drop stuff there, but desktop works too
2.) Download whatever firmware KDZ file you need
3.) Put that KDZ File in the same folder as the KDZ Tools
4.) Run "OneKeyExtraction.bat" and select Y if the KDZ is in the folder with this same file
5.) This takes A LONG WHILE and you need a good large bit of storage space available (50gb+) because the extraction goes raw format and some image files at first take up 20+GB as 1 file
6.) Once complete, you should have a folder named "F100X_usersigned_etc" ... open that to find your img firmware files. There's 31GB of IMG files here if its the Android 11 1020 KR FW
7.) Copy one of the boot.img to your device with Magisk Manager installed
-- The reason I stated on a different device, is that at least for me, Magisk Manager kept failing to patch on my LG Wing. When I put the boot.img on my OnePlus 7 Pro 5G, it patched just fine
8.) Open magisk manager, select Install, Select and Patch a File, select the Boot.img and patch it
9.) Once patched, that's a rooted boot.img, pull it off your device back to your computer and hold on to it for when we get a way to flash it and root the device!
root theory:
Interupting the LGUp flashing process of firmware when it gets to boot partitions to load custom boot.img's. How to do this exactly, not sure. If there's a way we can re-kdz these files from KDZ tool, that might work too
I can tell you right now, it wont work because the bootloader is locked. The hash of the patched boot.img on the phone won't match and you will get "Your device has failed a routine check, your phone is unbootable."
Sorry to debunk your theory. We need a firehose and a engineering bootloader.

Hi, are you willing to dump the bootloader from your phone? Because it looks like you have a development device, so it has an unlockable engineering bootloader that can be used to unlock other LG Wing and Velvet devices.

Thanks, I recommend to join the Discord server though since me and Leronex are not always online on XDA, we are more active on Discord since its a live chat platform, not a forum like XDA. If you dont have a Discord account you can just create one.
If anyone else is reading this you are welcome to join the server as well.

Reason I guessed demo device is because of the 0'd IMEI, but I guess as a dev device, 0'd imei is gonna be there too

I was cleaning up the carrier file while cleaning up with "adb_appcontrol".
The apk is all backed up.
It is in infinite booting state in the lg logo.
fastboot- ok
QFIL-ok
Download mode-ok
It is possible. a001lg (Japanese version of lg v60) cannot obtain kdz.
That's why you can't put kdz back in using lgup.
Is there any way to restore this device? Please help me.

Can you try to factory reset it somehow? A factory reset would restore deleted apps.
If you relock or unlock the bootloader i think that will automatically factory reset.

I tried to reset the factory, but I only saw the LG logo for 30 minutes. Reset did not proceed and failed.
The bootloader is unlocked. The factory reset has already failed, so I can't try because I think I might fail even if I play.

I don't know if this will help.
I remember that it was restored a long time ago and solved by switching to a->b.
I remember switching from partition a to partition b using twrp in xda at that time.
Please refer to the link. One of the ways to switch partitions.

The Japanese version is managed by softbank docomo, not by LG, so they keep the kdz private.
It will be possible to change the slot without unlocking the bootloader. I wish you success.

I flashed a corrupted bootloader to my SM-A025U variant, and now it shows in Device Manager as QUSB_BULK. and is not shown at all under Linux when I run lsusb.
The guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/debrick-images-hardbrick-recovery-plan.3387010/ requires a phone of the same model, which I don't have. I considered trying to use QFIL, but could not find the necessary firehose or firmware files online.
Can you use the unbrick sd card with this model, and if so could someone send me an unbrick image? If not, could you tell me where to find the files for EDL flashing?
Thanks!

Don't worry! Everything's gonna be alright ;) You may accidentally erase all partitions and GPT on your phone. Nothing is shown in "Partition Manager". Since there's no Rawprogram XML file we need an alternative method to get the phone back on...

Yes,restore them with fh_loader like netmsm's guide says.No,leave everything as is and just flash away!Make sure you make a back up first just in case anything goes wrong.

I can install the backup without problems, I perfectly restore the imei and stop giving the NTCODE error, I also restore the serial as before.
