I have a Verizon LG G2. It was rooted with stump root. I mistakenly did an OTA update recently. Now i am getting the LG logo then fastboot mode started. I did NOT install any custom recovery. I have tried to get into download mode with Volume up and plugging in USB and it goes back to fastboot mode. Ive also brought up the hard reset screen and proceeded to erase all user data and it goes back to fastboot mode. Im using a Dell 64 bit with Windows 8.1. It will not recognise my phone at all. Ive spent 3 days on every site i could find. Ive downloaded every LG Driver + erase all drivers on the Computer. Im not to savy with files and promts etc. I just recently downloaded a UniversalAdbDriverSetup.msi. Nothing either. Please help

Okay everything started when i wanted to go back to stock after having installed CyanogenMod 12 on my VS980. Everything went well with the install but when i finally wanted to go back, i couldnt enter download mode, instead i would get fastboot mode. I looked into that and people said i only had to replace files like Laf.img, boot.img, and aboot.img through command prompt. When i did this and rebooted the phone, the lg logo came out saying "Security Error" and then bootloops. I can enter Twrp Recovery with ease but i cant go into fastboot nor Download Mode. When i connect to the computer while in Twrp though, my computer picks it up as VS980 but says it was not installed correctly. I dont know what happened and im confused on whether is Soft- Bricked or Hard- Bricked. If anyone could help me with this problem please i have a Windows computer btw, not linux, im not sure if i need a linus for this fix though
Just putting out there, everywhere i look, people always send me here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
This just doesnt work for me since i cant enter download mode.
All help is appreciated and thank you in advance.
which TWRP version do you have?
the most simple solution if you have TWRP working is to flash a rom via OTG
I'm in the same boat man. I can get into TWRP 2.8.0.1 and download mode, but I can not get my drivers to install correctly. I have the drivers in a file. I've pointed my computer at that file, rebooted computer, changed usb cables, tried sideload feature in TWRP, tried the LG flash tool. Nothing helps. God I'm so dumb for erasing internal storage. I'm so used to having an sd card and was just thinking, don't erase sd card and you're good. I rushed through it and f'd up really good.
Errors
adb devices-doesn't list device just blank space
sideload or push just yields a list of all the commands, but nothing else
when I plug phone in to computer-drivers not installed correctly. 'MTP USB failed'
flashtool-'failed previous load'
sideload function of TWRP-It just tries to load forever
terminal in TWRP-I ran a command, but then it says you are not rooted install supersu. Not matter what I choose it reboots and sticks at 'LG' screen.
My drivers worked before I wiped internal storage, so I know it's my phone. Drivers just worked to transfer xdabbeb's 2.3 over 3 minutes before I shyt the bed with it.
Last night I was running 5.0 Lollipop GPE on my unlocked Telus HTC One M7, when I got a notification for an OTA update to 5.1 . I let it download and install, it booted up and then ran through Optimizing Apps. When it finished, the phone rebooted - and then got stuck in this loop. I can either boot the phone and it starts Optimizing Apps (again) or I can get to the bootloader screen. Entering Recovery mode (then holding power and volume up) doesn't do anything- just leads me back into this loop.
Figured I need to flash the phone now, but cannot get it to show up when I run adb devices (just an empty list). I'm not sure if the phone isn't in USB debugging mode or there is something else going on here. I've tried both Mac and PC with several drivers, multiple usb cables, and any other potential solution google came up with. It obviously worked in the past in order to flash 5.0 GPE, but doesn't work now and not sure what has changed.
Any suggestions on getting out of this mess? Can I somehow flash it without being able to boot? Thanks!

use fastboot commands, usb debug is only to enable adb when the os is booted.
Code:
fastboot devices

Thank you! Everything else went smoothly and I've flashed 5.1 now.
Hello, I've a stock rooted moto g 2014 edition.
Today my phone started rebooting randomly. Half an hour ago it would restart after unlocking my device. Now it can't even get past the bootloader unlocked screen.
I've gone into fastboot and tried getting into recovery but it just reboots again after showing the TWRP splash.
I can't execute any commands through fastboot itself either, Minimal ADB and fastboot doesn't recognize the device.
Flash mode says battery low and asks me to connect the usb cable, but it already is and windows is prompting me "unknown usb device" even after the automatic fastboot driver install.
I haven't messed with any system files in a looong time.
Please help me, thanks.
EDIT: I had to get the drivers from the website, then all I had to do was erase userdata from fastboot.
Case solved =]
Hello,
I've got a problem when trying to load fastboot that I haven't been able to find a solution for here. I'm hoping someone else has run into this and can help. My phone (H811) seems to freeze upon entering fastboot mode. I have...
Flashed 20i using TWRP
Enabled OEM Unlock and Debugging
Uninstalled and Reinstalled drivers in every imaginable configuration over the past two days
Flashed (and completely wiped internal storage) the 20i KDZ
Continued to muck around with drivers
Everything is fine when connecting to my PC, ADB has no issues. I run into trouble when rebooting (via ADB) and the phone freezes. The power button is unresponsive and I have to pull the battery to exit fastboot. My device manager shows -something- is connected after entering fastboot, but so far I haven't been able to find a working driver for that.
Thanks
(I couldn't find this exact problem on the forums, forgive me if I overlooked it)
I tried booting my mom's old phone, an HTC Desire 626G, but it is stuck in a bootloop. When I try to enter recovery mode (by pressing power + volume down), it just enters the loop again.
I can however enter what I think is the bootloader menu, giving me three options: recovery, fastboot or normal boot. Fastboot freezes the phone, the other two options just start the bootloop. I've never installed a custom ROM.
I disassembled the phone, un- and replugged the battery to no avail. I tried ADB but I never enabled USB debugging in the first place, so that doesn't work either.
Do you have another idea that might work?

Bro You need to flash the factory firmware using a pc with that fastboot mode.....
The existing firmware might have been got corrupted or the storage might have been damaged, since its an old device(which is very rare),
To do so u can find many articles on the internet very easily,

Thanks a lot, I'm finally able to communicate with my phone via PC now. Booting still doesn't work but now I can at least format the storage and hopefully flash the factory ROM.
