Ok I feel so stupid.
I read about the issues that if you uninstall the LG Home screen you need to have another home screen installed. Which I had. everything was fine and the I got some issues (for example market crashed) so I decided to do a reset.
When it came around and I started the installation guide, it said that the installation guide has crashed and phone reboots to lg logo.
I though the phone had a untouched rom-file that it could revert to but I guess not.
So what to do? I've managed a couple of times to start android and connect the usb but since I only get mass storage mode there's not much I can do...
I've also tried to use the lg software updater but since it's the same version (and you can't reinstall the current firmware) it stops there.
I read some about odin for samsung phone, can I use that or any similar tools?
thanks
Forget vendor software from other than LG! They are incompatible with your phone.
Your phone is not bricked. With a real brick your phone will be nearly dead.
You can try to download SDK Tools from here (you only need the SDK Tools, not all of the SDK or the APIs)
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Install/Extract SDK Tools. You also need USB driver from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953182
Then connect phone to your PC and search for adb.
Try this command:
adb shell
(it opens a linux shell on your phone)
Does it connect to your phone?
When yes, your chances are pretty big to restore your phone.
Type
exit
to get out of the shell.
I advise you to read this thread because it covers your problem pretty much:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992945
Sorry, I cannot give you more help because I'm also not an expert with restoring system parts.
Thanks I've read the threads regarding deleted home screen but the problem is that I can't get the phone in USB debugging mode and therefor I can't use adb...
Have you tried hard reset? (Power + volume down)

Yes I have.
I would try the fastboot method

If you have a kdz file (there's one available for the O2X in this forum), and get the phone into emergency mode you may probably have an alternative option to consider. Feel free to look at the following thread. The O2X will use the same LG updating software:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883314
Just make sure not to use a P500 rom!
On an Optimus P500 it's Vol+Back and then power on in order to get it into emergency mode, however I haven't managed to do it on the O2x.
Hope you get it working

Hi I've tried all day with both lg utils and with KDZ_FW_UPD_EN, none seems to work.
I reset it so that I can enter the guide but I when I press exit or go throuh with the guide "The application Setup Wizard (process com.android.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" and then it exit to lg logo... I can access the notification bar and enter wifi settings and some other things but I can't get to the usb menu. anyone know a "backdoor" to get to phone settings from activation screen?
Perhaps nvflash is the solution.
Someone with a working stock 2x could dump the rom using nvflash, and you could flash it?
Poul O'Brien has confirmed nvflash works on the 2x, haven't tried it myself though.

Edit: hmm, nvflash only identifies my gfxcard, guess i'm doing something wrong...
join us on our irc channel.
we're working on a recovery which could help you fix the problem. all we need is a little more information from somebody who acutally has a phone

Wrong nvflash.
You can still get it into nvflash mode and then flash cwm. A guide to getting into nvflash mode was posted on the MoDaCo site.
Paul will release cwm later today.

Servers are down anyway so you can't use R&D with B2C. Do you have adb installed? Also, try entering recovery by pressing volume down then power button, you might get lucky.

Hey, tomorrow is a Monday. Im figuring you are within your warranty. Instead of waiting for the servers, which are up, btw, all you need to do is step into the LG service center. They'll replace the handset in 2 days. I got mine replaced a week ago.

i thot of that, but since the phone is bootlooping CM7 bootscreen, i feel they are going to void my warranty!!!....were u rooted and yet got your handset replaced???....reply man!!!....am so tensed!!!
Try this :
1. R&D Tool must be Run As Administrator
2. B2CC notiagent must run (on taskbar)
3. Change Phone Mode to DIAG
see also THIS GUIDE
can anyone post the EXACT STEP BY STEP 2 unbrick the phone??
even running LGUpdate -> recovery phone didn't help.
it downloaded the update, updated the phone, but the cell won't boot!!!...only thing that changed is that the bootanimation loop has changed from CM7 to stock LG one. dats about it!!!....please help me guys!!!!...am so so so so worried!!!!...feel liek i was better off with the x10
I did down-grade CM7 to Stock ROM V10D use R&D Tools without problem. I saw your R&D tool pic, I suggest to you :
1. Use R&D tool again (because R&D tool is full flash).
2. Re-download kdz file stock ROM HERE (maybe your kdz file is broken)
3. All of that Windows Software must be run as administrator.
4. Change PhoneMode : CS_Emergency to be DIAG (see image of R&D that you uploaded)
ps. : Sorry for my bad english
here is the problem with me.
1. I HAVE THE DRIVERS, MSXML 4.0 AND THE B2C TOOL INSTALLED
2. I DID EVERYTHING MENTIONED IN THE GUIDE ABOUT THE WINDOWS ENABLER AND EVERYTHING.
3. THEN WHEN I START THE R&D TT or he UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe, it runs. i select the downloaded .kdz file, (mode is set as CS_Emergency) and then when i hit run CSE WEB UPGRADE TEST, it shows me the 2nd window where i should hit "UPGRADE START" and it runs the updater, however, when i run it, it says
"please install B2C CSMG CLIENT TOOL
SELECT TOOL -> B2C Client Setup Menu
but when select it from tools it says "B2C Tool Setup Complete"!!!!!.....what 2 do.....PLESASEE HELP...HELPPPPP!!!!

Well, after a TON of work, and unsuccessful attempts at getting this, I finally was able to get signal and working data on my phone. I know some people had had trouble with the process, so I'm going to post my guide here to help you all out.
There are two parts to this tutorial. Only one is needed, however, to get ICS to properly work, so find the one that fits your current predicament AND ONLY USE THAT PART OF THE TUTORIAL.
If this is your first time installing the ICS rom...
Follow the LG flashing tool guide that XBSall has linked in his ICS Rom post. You can also find it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490 . However, when you install the ROM, DO NOT USE THE .FLS FILE HE PROVIDES. Instead, download the v18A baseband and install that one with the .BIN file he provides. You can find the v18A baseband here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338383 I believe. After you flash the entire thing, you should have ICS! Easy!
If you have the ICS Rom installed now, but have no signal...
This is a bit more complicated, but still very easy. After I flashed ICS, I was not able to flash things using LGFlashTool like I could in GB. This is how I ended up flashing the baseband to fix my issues.
We need to set up your phone to connect with LGFlashTool first. To do this, use XBSall's restore to GB method, located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942836 . You will need the OMAP4BOOT files, but you will need nothing else.
Follow his tutorial up until step 6. When he tells you to insert the battery, insert it AS FAST as you can. I messed up on the timing the first few times. Once I saw a greyscale LG logo, and a few other times it just booted normally. Just try again if this happens. Eventually you will get the screenshot in step 9. DO NOT remove the cable when OMAP4BOOT tells you to, as well.
Follow step 10 and 11 of XBSalls restore tutorial, and then follow step 12. When you set up LGFlashTool for the reflashing, simply select the v18A baseband to flash and then start the process. If done correctly, Port 1 should state READY. Repeat steps 3-9 in his tutorial. It will start the flashing process. Once you get an error, close the program, and remove your phones battery and disconnect it from your computer.
Turn on your phone, and receive signal. PROFIT.
Hope this helps you guys out a bit, and remember to hit thanks if this helped you.

still no signal... ill try again... atleast closer to fixing... attached is the error im getting... when i go into About and check the baseband it still has V30
EDIT: When into System Settings > About Phone > Software Information ... it is showing the following information.
Baseband Version: XMM6260
Software Version: LGSU760-V30b-OCT-18-2012
Can anyone help? The guide dosent show you how to install the OMAP4430 drivers, but i found out myself how to do it so whatever. Problem is, now "OMAP4430 USB Device" is dissappearing and reappearing over and over again when i boot with volume up. Can anyone shed some light as to how to fix this?
And my phone isnt bricked, i can turn it on right now and everything.
EDIT: Found the problem, you need to hold VolUp after OMAP4430 pops up. Funny, it says in the guide to let go when it pops up. Fixed my mistake though.

Hello everyone,
I'm currently trying to get ICS installer on my rogers P925. I tried many times on two computers (both windows 7 one is 32bits other is 62bits) to flash the bin and fls files you are recommanding but it seems like even if my OMAP 4430 device driver is correctly installed via the program files texas instuments dll it seems it wont stay connected at all and just pop open and closed sometimes when it seems to want, and it makes the flashing procedure impossible to me any ideas?

XBSALL helped me out! It's finally working now! My problem was with the port. He got my phone rooted, changed USB port (I mistakenly was changing the wrong one), installed TWRP, put his ICS cleaned mod version on through TWRP zip install. It's all working now full bars of 3G!
help?
Finally got to flash ICS on phone but it was giving me errors everytime I wasn't using original baseband associated with .bin file. Now, I can't get it to boot in fastboot even using OMAP4boot I don't really understand when I need to insert fast the battery... OMAP4boot doesn't seem to get my phone...
You will always get errors as these are not full kdz files. If you are stuck at lg logo..try pull batt replace then hold vol- and power button til you see a factory reset screen do reset and boot..that made mine boot.

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear enough, but my phone boots now, it's only I had to flash it with the O3D fls file and not the .fls I was supposed to use so I get a working ICS without any network.
Now that i'm trying to complete step 2 to get te right baseband, i can't get the phone to boot in download mode even using OMAP fasboot flash. the software just don't say anything appart from "waiting for phone".
So I was wondering if I was doing anything wrong

it's almost the 10th time I follow the guide step by step by step... I think or i'm always doing wrong something or it's something else with my phone... I may have misconfigured one port but i do NEVER NEVER at all in the process see OMAP4430 device in my device manager.. so the little windows tool is not doing anything... maybe if someone wanna teamviewer they can see for themselves what it gives.
Wahoo, ICS + network
finally found that there was the correct driver for my computer in the omap4boot folder and not in everyother one I was installing, flashed with the guide after i found this driver and everything works fine
only thing i'm struggling is to set apns to get 3G any tricks?
Do a Google search for AT&T 4G APN (or whoever our carrier is). You can also create an APN with the word "phone" in the first two blanks, name and APN (I think), and it should give you access to 3G and HSPA. I hit 6.7mbps on Speed Test.

Hello,
I have LG Thrill P925 at&t, I updated it to 4.0 with help of Lg Support Tool. but after updation it goes dead, now it isnt booting up only vibrates..
i tried lg flash tool from win7 /xp , did all but it just stops after 50 % flashing.. Any idea?
I'll gladly leave lg g4 forum been the most un helpful experience ever between 140 views on both threads ..and even from the most recognized devs with nothing but simplistic answers and guides that ive read already yet the needed answers are known ..... must be considered extra work to explain and help out with my indepth matter .The minute you run across a forum with someone who had this issue almost exactly they say oh edit...fixed now .
But the most stupidest of questions can get answered on here .
Had to waist money on a nexus 5x all cause no one can explain how this great Lg up tool works but apparently it is a botched process if your device shows as Unknown model with no fix no in depth explanation Lg bridge does not work for a true soft brick it only meant to upgrade a device that actually as a bootable O.S
So where does that leave me

Did you post your issue in the official LG UP thread or in the back to stock marshmallow kdz thread where the file that you need to get this back to stock using LG Up is listed. If you would have searched in the kdz back to stock thread you would have seen that another user helped me with the exact same issue ss you. Was ready to turn my phone in for warranty before finding my answer there. Your phone is still able to boot into recovery manually but you have to do it a few times then you install a rom that's saved on your sd card and your phone will boot up. Hopefully you still have your G4 and can try this method.

Really I'm thinking not explain to me how my lg g4 phone can boot into recovery manually when i relocked the boot loader through adb.
All I have is down load mode No regular O.s boot no fast boot mode
Its all secure boot error 1003
I download the kdz 20i from auto primes code fire link that's the only kdz for 20i around .
The issue is lg up tool sees my device as Unknown model because I was on a ROM when this happened apparently there's no fix unless you can boot into the O.s and edit the ROM

I'll gladly leave lg g4 forum been the most un helpful experience ever between 140 views on both threads ..and even from the most recognized devs with nothing but simplistic answers and guides that ive read already yet the needed answers are known ..... must be considered extra work to explain and help out with my indepth matter .The minute you run across a forum with someone who had this issue almost exactly they say oh edit...fixed now .
But the most stupidest of questions can get answered on here .
Had to waist money on a nexus 5x all cause no one can explain how this great Lg up tool works but apparently it is a botched process if your device shows as Unknown model with no fix no in depth explanation Lg bridge does not work for a true soft brick it only meant to upgrade a device that actually as a bootable O.S
So where does that leave me

I actually posted my solution in the 20I thread relatively early. I am sorry no one helped you sooner.
If you used an iternational Rom and have an unrecognized model LGBridge is able to update your phone through update error recovery.

This is impossible lg bridge is not a semi brick or full brick fix tool its a upgrade tool from what I see
lts for a device that's in a bootable operating state allowing firmware upgrade .
It can only read in a device in mtp mode If you only have download mode that doesn't help at all Withp lg bridge The unknown device model issue is only seen with the Other tool Caller Lg up.
I go on and on and on and noone takes my exact scenario and breaks it down .

Did you even try it? My phone was in the 1003 boot error with unknown model in LGUp. I only had download mode. Give it a shot before you dismiss it.

Actually my bootloader was locked at the point I used LGBridge.
Not being able to connect suggests driver problems. Reload them and try again.

No that's not true I guarantee you wasn't
Relocked boot loader u couldn't have been
I am for sure about this and lg bridge sees my device when I choose update recovery error it tells me there are No update errors that can be recovered
So how does that prove it fixed yours when we was in the same scenario?

I made a mistake when upgrading my phone from LP to MM and accidentally left my Bootloader locked when trying to upgrade, nearly bricking my phone. I was receiving a 1003 error every time I tried to boot. I posted this in a different thread last month for someone else who had the same problem.
I had this exact same issue when upgrading my phone. Didn't do it correctly and it took me about 3 hours before I got my phone working again. It was about a week ago on another computer, but I'll try to recall what I did when it finally clicked in my mind.
Download H81120i_00_0201.kdz flashable zip from here (1.6GB Feb-04-16):
http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime.../H811/H81120i/
Download LGUP and install it. I used the DropBox link in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/h...mm-lp-t3249803
Remember to install the LGUP_8994_DLL file BEFORE LGUP_Install
Download and install LG Bridge (for the USB drivers) here:
http://www.lg.com/uk/support/pc-suite
Select the LG 815 model, the drivers will work. I only used the LG Bridge to install the USB drivers. Nothing else.
OK, now here's where your phone comes in.
Step 1: Turn off your phone (pull the battery if you must, but put it back in).
Step 2: Hold the VOLUME UP button and plug the USB cable into your PC. This puts your phone into DOWNLOAD MODE.
Step 3: On your PC, open up LGUP. The program shoud recognize the phone as H811 in COM3 or COM4. Highlight it and click the SELECT button.
Step 4: Under the "Process" row, select UPGRADE
Step 5: Click the blank space under File Path, it will pop up a [...] [X] at the end. Click the [...].
Step 6: Select the H81120i_00_0201.kdz and click on Start. The program will push the STOCK H811 MM ROM to your phone. This will bring your phone out of Brick mode, but you will have to go through the entire rooting process again.

Once again I was on a ROM when in did all this if it wasn't for that fact Lg Up would see my device model as h11 not unknown
So tell me how to get past the Unknown device model issue due to bring on a Custom Rom when this happened

The issue lies in step 3
The phone doesn't recognize as h811 it is as unknown model
If you know a way around that I'd love to know because every day I Go to snap the phone in half and recycle it as trash I stop my self thinking maybe one person will get that I was on a ROM when this happened and have a solution for Lg up to see my device as h811

That sounds like a driver issue. When I did mine I was also on a custom ROM. I had to manually remove all LG drivers via the Device Manager and install the LG Bridge for its LG USB drivers before the LGUP tool would recognize it. Before I did that it wouldn't even see my phone.

I would like to think that butt LG up is evidently seeing a connection from my phone to the PC it's just reading the device model as unknown because if I unplug the phone it goes back to reading nothing I plug it back in pops up red box model unknown I know it's reading the phone in LG up because it actually tells you the ROM it detects which is Xtreme ROM by micro mod
Not only that LG Mobile support tool read my phone and says software is up-to-date LG flash tool 2014 attempts to flash but fails because it is not compatible apparently with Android 6.0
Nlg bridge when I try to use that tool sees my phone when I choose update recovery error and says there are no recoveries to update I don't believe it's a driver issue I think it's the fact that I'm stuck on a ROM that is edited in some fashion that will not allow the tool to to proceed to the next step and if you look at the LG up thread it talks about a member explaining about the unknown device model issue is due to the ROM developer editing his ROM name somehow
Everyone that has gotten past the unknown device model happen to have an unlocked bootloader or was just trying to do a regular upgrade and still had an OS to boot into there's just no way around this mess
