I'm motivated to help...
Just want to chime in. I also made this mistake, but I didn't want to make a stink about so I searches the whole internet of things for 2 days. Here's what I've got just in case anyone else is so inclined to help.
D959
Took the ota for 4.4.2 (bad idea #1) rooted via towel root v3 installed cwm via playfulgod's gflex app. (Bad idea #2) warning message told me not to I derped up and did it anyway.
Rebooted into recovery, wiped data/cache (she needed a reset for personal reasons) upon reboot I was prompted with a message *here is where I really messed up* message said something to the effect of "you may have lost root would you like to reroot?". I clicked OK (bad idea #3) and it hung at splash screen.
I have tried all unbrick methods on xda. I know what the crazy Korean screen says (with the barcode) and it is not at all relevant so don't get excited if you see it.
I was recently able to get into recovery wipe data/cache has no effect.
PHONE IS RECOGNIZED WHEN IN RECOVERY!!!!!!
Just trying now to get some adb/fastboot connectivity or something.
To play catch up see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2740247

I know this is kinda of old, but the same thing happen to me today but with t-mobile. how did you get it to boot in recovery i tried everything and for the life of me i cant get it to boot in recovery or download mode, i can get it to the white page with koren letters and the imei on the bottom with bar code.

If you guys can get into recovery then get Dfuse's stock 4.2.2 jelly bean Rom for T-MOBILE AND AT&T ONLY.
T-MOBILE & AT&T ONLY!!!!! put the zip on a thumb drive and use a female usb to male micro usb adapter. Sold at radio shack. Amazon , best buy. Etc. Now in recovery make sure usb-otg is mounted, then navigate to the zip and flash. Don't forget to factory reset afterwards and before you boot.

I believe I have bricked my phone in the same way...has anyone been able to remedy this...I am able to get to recovery and to a download screen that says download with a img of a PC and phone. I have a Sprint version.
Thank you

If u can go into download mode try using lg flash tool go back to stock method.

Since he just factory reset a stock rom, it isnt set to debugging mode, so adb isnt an option...

Because you cant push a launcher or get into any settings menu, my only suggestion would be to flash a new rom. And assuming that the rom you just flashed (being completely stock), you wont have the 3 button combo although I suggest you try it. (Im not sure about the combos for 2.2 roms).
If you cant get into recovery/download through any method, my next suggestion is to buy/build a JIG and force your device into download mode, by which you can use ODIN to flash a rom.
You can make a jig for about a dollar or buy one for about 10. (Best purchase i made). Just take a look around the forums for more info on this.
yes i can get into where it says reboot system now,reinstall packages delete data ya know. not much experiance
and i can still get the usb modes when i plug in usb. kies media player mass storage.just an amature
Not sure if it would work...but odin3 v1.0 had a option for enable debug .could he just do that? Then adb push /system/app/launcher.apk? See pic

Be careful when flashing ROMS, be certain to read the instructions carefully and read the thread too, usually you will find all the information you need, any problems to expect and how to recover from these problems. Good Luck and happy flashing!

If he has problems with drivers and would search for it he would've probably got something like "try other drivers" or "reinstall drivers".
Or at least try kdz flash.
Search for brick and then follow the suggestions given on the outcomes.

Seriously, if you can go into software mode, you must be able to flash kdz unless you have a developer device.

seriously , in a previous help thread u said its a developer phone. if u have the "not for sale" on the back of the phone , forget it, it wont come back to life so dont keep asking. else u need other drivers for apx. and if the lg support see ur phone then go in C:// where the lg support is and in there u will see the files u need to flash the kdz.

Its very likely out device makes use of a sbk, which it uses to encrypt all nvflash communication (nvflash is a nvidia protocal for acessing pre-bootloader states, with tegra devices this is done through apx mode.) Without knowing the sbk we have little hope of accessing nvflash via apx. I dont think it would be impossible to use a nexus 7 / asus tablet method to access nvflash but its a seroius undertaking for even the most skilled of developers.

Well, I F'ed up... :(

OK, so...I was messing around, and I ended up flashing the wrong boot.img file.
The phone just kind of goes in and out of the LG booting screen, which didn't concern me too much, because...it was still turning on and such.
SO I tried to hook up into the LG Flash tool, and......it didn't work. I put my phone in download mode, and it comes on my computer as a QHSUSB_BULK, and it opens up 15 "portable devices", all of which are not formatted correctly except for one (which comes up as drive E.

Things I can do:
Get into download mode, with crazy folders.
Get into some crazy Korean Screen with three options (Mode On, Mode Off, Cancel)
Turn the Phone on and off
Things I cannot do:
Boot into the OS
Boot into Fastboot
LG Flash Tools
ADB
If you guys want a screenshot of the korean screen, I can get you that. Maybe you can translate more of it, but I was only able to get the mode on and off, and the cancel part. Since I don't know what it does, I can't make it do anything.
If you want the files, lemme know, and I'll upload them.
Hopefully someone knows how I can fix this. Argh....

Yeah, I saw the difference. *lol* No life in the device at all, my linux mint doesn't discover it anymore. I'm going to try it again when I get home -- had to get to work, damn it.
If it reads it on the computer, which I doubt, but...maaaybe....I'll try it again with some img files. it's ok if it doesn't -- I'll just go to see about replacing it tomorrow.
OK. Plugged it back into the computer, and it comes up as:
Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008
It doesn't show the 15 or so drives, and Linux doesn't read it at all.
LG Flash tool can see it sometimes, but it can't flash anything because it can't read the IMEI or anything on the phone -- fails every time.
Well unfortunately now you f'ed up
HS-USB QDLoader = hard brick

Sent from my LG-D959 using Tapatalk
I wonder if there's a way to reassign the IMEI and such with CDMA Workshop or QPST...? The LG Flash tool says it can't find the phone, but it reads the phone on the right port.
I take it this method does not apply to a phone that cannot be seen by a pc?
Well...probably not. I still get it showing up as an "unknown USB" device now, lately, but nothing past that. No worries -- I'm just grabbing at straws while waiting for payday.

It wont go into fastboot? That korean screen is just the hardware button selector. Pretty much asks you if you want to use your hardware buttons. If you can adb it and get it to reboot thru fastboot then u have a chance.

You simply have to pay attention to what you're doing. If you're into flashing rom's and tinkering, I'd suggest you buy a Nexus device because they're easy to work with and hard to screw up.
I'm enjoying my G Flex just the way it is, there isn't any "must-have" root apps that are worth the trouble of going back to stock, or re-flashing this or that. Just look at all the problems people are having. Plus, I'm paying monthly on this device and have no interest in voiding it's warranty.

That is why I went exclusively to Nexus devices several years ago when I traded in my Vibrant for the Nexus S. Since then I have had 4 Nexus devices and not a one of them have been bricked in any way, after thousands of flashed files have been done to them. On my Nexus 7 I think its impossible to kill it via a bad flash. I think you would need to pull the cable in mid flash of the bootloader for any damage to occur, lol... But for recovery and roms/kernels etc, its near impossible I think.
This is the first non Nexus device in a long time so I think I will stick to stock on it and just root it and do away with the bloat. lol

[Q] Failed to Update

Hey guys, was hoping you could help me with this. I have the I537 and tried updating OTA through AT&T, but when I started to install it got to 27% and told me it failed to install before rebooting. This happened twice. I have also attempted to update via Kies, but it keeps saying my software is up to date when it obviously is not. I have erased all data and wiped the phone, and have still gotten the same problem. I was rooted via TowelRoot, but lost the root after an OTA update, and root checker, as well as SuperSU, both say I do not have root access. I should also mention that I have NH3 in my baseband. Can anybody help me please? My mother's phone updated without issue, and she was never rooted. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I think you had some thing wrong in your system because of rooted this why got faided update..do fuctry reset and Use Odin flash Ne3 and check the update again...

Download this. Extract all four files and load them with Odin 3.09 (attached to this post). Connect your phone to your PC in download mode (power it off, then turn it back on while holding the volume down button). Flash NE3 (should look like below):

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

Then root with towelroot (one click root app, couldn't be easier) and follow this thread's instructions to get onto lollipop. Point being, skip over NH3, don't use Kies, Odin is your best friend (fixes all my mistakes both intentional and accidental) and read this thread for more detailed instructions on using Odin to flash firmware

Please help me fix my Note 5!!!
Quick background story:
Bought it on ebay "As Is". Guy said it got stuck while using Samsungs smart switch software. Phone still has intact Knox ("0") so warranty is intact.
But I dont want to take the warranty exchange route yet. It is on 6.0.1 PD2 or PH2 (i forget, I am at work at the momemnt) because thats what smart switch says
that it is going to restore.
Things I have done: (Used multiple cables, using Win10)
- Tried Emergency restore via Smart Switch. -- No success. It says something like cant restore.
- Used Odin 3.7 & 3.12.6 to flash stock PD2 or PH2 firmware. Odin flashes the rom now (it wasnt earlier) and when the phone reboots it stays at "Samsung Logo" and
doesnt move on.
- Cant get to recovery. It just does nothing when holding the buttons.
- I can only get to Download screen.
So, I dont know what to do now. I was able to get my previous note 5 working by using odin but this one is just stuck.
I would really appreciate all the help.
Thanks.
EDIT:
Forgot to mention that FRP is Locked

Hi,
So I tried going to the link and unfortunately it did not work . The software to repack the (boot.img, recovery.img, system.img) does not work for some reason. Tried using 7zip, but I cant find a way to combine the 3 img files into .tar files. What am I missing here?
Spent another 3 hours after work today fiddling with this . The wife is def not happy.
Any other suggestions?
Plzzz help a guy out.
You can try to install TWRP recovery by odin. Boot into download mode then connect your phone to the computer. Once done you will need to download some files which will install the recovery by odin. Next hold the volume up, power, and home button until twrp recovery comes up then connect the storage to your pc and install a custom rom and hopefully this might fix it. This will void warranty so do this at your own risk.

Thanks again for replying back. Really appreciate you trying to help me. I am at work so will try it again tonight. But the tool gives an error everytime. I am using win10. Could that be an issue?
