Hey everyone.
I have the LG Thrill (P925) from AT&T. I'm used to changing roms and trying new things.
Well today I get a text from AT&T saying ICS is out, so I go and download the LG Mobile Support Tool
like the text says. The first few times don't work. I got stuck at the LG boot logo. (I didn't wipe the phone before.)
So I wait an hour to 1.5 hours. Still nothing. I try again and search the forums while I wait. Someone says to try using XP.
So I try in XP mode under Win 7. Everything is going well up until 90%. It does the whole driver disconnected sound as per normal
but then it happens. My phone starts up and shows the LG logo for 3/4ths of a second and then restarts (Black screen for 2 seconds) and
then repeats the whole process over again. What can I do?
(EDIT: Almost forgot: I was on CM7 when I tried to go to Official ICS)
All from the official LG tool...
SOLVED
After trying a few things I held the Volume up button and the power button to get it recognized by the computer. Then
I found a different copy of the LG Mobile support tool than what was on their site. I used the recovery phone option and it worked!
Hopefully this will help someone. I'll post where I got the tool soon.
Could you please give a link or tell me where you got the other lg mobile support tool. Because everything was going good for me and my phone restarted after it was done updating. But when it restarted it got hung up at the att animation and it just stays there... The way I got the official lg mobile support tool to recognize my phone was to put it into download mode also.
I got the KDZ_Flashing_Software.zip from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191698
Install the msxml from the zip then you can use the B2CAppSetup program.
Hope it helps.

Did these suggestions work for you? I'm in the same spot (frozen at&t logo). I've tried recovery phone several times to no avail. Trying one last time hoping for a miracle.
I was running a acidhazardrom gingerbread rom before attempting to update to latest official ICS. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I only got to a menu to wipe my device once. I tried many times and the time I got to it it only had one option which didn't seem to help.

I found out what I did wrong. I didn't uninstall the version of the LG Support Tool before using the one specified in your first post. I removed the original LG support tool and used the one you found and it worked.
Thanks for your help.

Glad to help.
I know it's something I did, probably the custom image I had running, but the LG Support Tool totally borked my phone. My Thrill would only stay on for a split second, and would continuously boot cycle when plugged into USB. The boot cycle was so fast that half the time it wouldn't even get to the LG logo!
Fixed it with fastboot (omap4boot) and SmartFlash Tool. What a nightmare. Only good thing is I was able to flash from BIN file directly to ICS.

Thanks for your help too. Obviously these issues stem from the fact that we used custom roms on the Thrill. It doesn't help that the LG Tools are complete software crap.

noope still stuck at the lg screen
Hi all xda guys. I'm a new member. I am known that xda has many experts of android smart phone so I join this forum to hope that my phone could be fixed by your willing help.
My smart phone is LG Optimus LTE 2 F160LV. I had been working very wonderful in the past. But one day, it displayed many "not responding service" warning and rolled to restart then. After that, it was stuck at the Korean screen as the below image: (sorry I could not attached the image by tag due to the policy of new member, please click the below link)
//imageshack.us/photo/my-images/850/x281.jpg/
My smartphone was rooted at the time it bricked. I did try to kdz it back to rom stock but no luck.
When I hard reset it (Volume up + Power + Home), then run the command "adb reboot recovery" but still no luck. It turns to a screen with the robot laying down with an exclamation mark.
I did ask help from many persons who is using this kind of phone but they could not help.
I'm very grateful if you guys can take my phone back. I love it very much :(.
Thanks
Please!!!
Any help plz!!
Your phone does not seem to be very popular anywhere around the world. All I was able to find is its (likely) stock rom on seyhacc.blogspot.co.at and its specifications on gsmarena.
What you could do is find out if there's a similar, but more popular model and look for some tutorials how to unbrick that one, using of course your Stock ROM. The Optimus 2X's hardware is likely to different from your phone to try any of our methods.

A little different brick of my Moto G 2nd gen(XT-1068).plz help
Hi ,
Please dont ignore my mail just bcoz its too long. I have been following this thread from four to five days. Will you please help me ? Just have a look at my problem. I have been rooting my android phones and have good experience of testing , rooting the handsets. Recently I flashed my Moto G ( xt-1068 ) with lolipop because i was not able to wait till motorolla release it.
I tested it for few days , and successfully downgraded back to 4.4.4 kitkat. It was all fine. I love MIUI so I started my work to port MIUI over our favourite Moto G . I even ported it and was not booting. So I edited updter-script and was trying to flash it back on my xt-1068.
Now the mistake that happened was , due to some error in the script , It aborted the installation. When i checked the log from CWM , It has crossed partitioning and it aborted while extracting the directorties. By mistake I restarted the phone and since the partitions were flashed and there was nothing to execute , my phone is stuck. Its not even starting . Its getting recognised as "qhsusb_bulk". Thts why i came over this thread and tried to follow the procedure you have mensioned.
I am also getting the same error like while flaashing with blank-flash : FAILED (blank-flash:sdl-transfer-image:sdl-hello:invalid HDLC frame) and FAILED (blank-flash:sdl-transfer-image:sdl-hello:error sending packet) .
So do i have the same problem that happened with theses guys who tried to downgrade their handsets from Lolipop to kitkat ? If its so , should I also wait for Lolipop release by moto ? or will i have some other problem ? Do you have any solution ? I was really wanted to make MIUI available for our Moto G . I don't feel sad for bricking of m phone but what ifeel sad is I want it back. I can't pass my day without it. i am missing it. Please can you suggest me wht should I do ?
Thanks in advance.

firmwares
do someone has the moto g 2gen firmwares on extention .tar.gz i need them to fix my phone
Help!!
Hi people.
Well, only 2 weeks ago I got my Moto G XT1063 and I unlocked bootloader to install Soak Test of Android 5.0.2 with RetailUSA firmware. (My device's original firmware, was for Claro Colombia).
It worked well, I got it running perfect. Yesterday I saw that official/final version of 5.0.2 was available for my device with RetailUSA firmware, but I needed to do a downgrade to KitKat first, because it wouldn't work if I was in Soak Test yet.
So I made the downgrade, and it was running well, I checked for updates, and there was no updates availables, so I decided to reboot, to see if it may make the update appear. But after turning off my device, and trying to turn it on again, just nothing happened.
Now, my device doesn't want to turn on, neither in fastboot mode. And now, I don't know what to do here. So I would be really thankful for any help provided.
Thanks in advance. Have a nice day.
So here is what happened,
My phone was maybe 14% plugged it in left it charging and went to sleep.
Woke up with the phone alarm and started reading whatsapp messages, at this point the phone was already at 100%.
Maybe 30-40 seconds later, with the cable still plugged in the phone turned off, with no message, it just "died".
Now it wont boot, fastboot, nothing.
Tried some solutions i found on the internet like holding vol down + power button for more than 2 minutes, and nothing.
I really need some help here guys, PLEASE.
The phone was running latest TITAN PRIME ROM 1.1 dev3
Everything will be appreciated, thanks in advance.
partitions whacked out?
It seems I am unable to flash anything probably due to partitions broken. When I try to do a fastboot flash, It results in OKAY, but it has no effect on the device. I tried to flash the gpt.bin to partition, but the problem remains. Is there any way to repair the partitions? I tried to format in fastboot, I get the error "formatting is not supported for filesystem with type 'raw'". I am also unable to change format from recovery. All ideas welcome!
This issue came up after my phone went battery empty.

Same here, also due to 0% battery.
Seems these phones do not shutdown early enough before the battery voltage drops below spec. ****ty engineering.
Please, someone help us for the sake of god.
There are several people with this problem and we don't know how to fix it.
Is there any possibility, any help, anything we could test would be welcome.

But it didn't restart. i plug the wall charger in, it didn't charge. i tried to connect it to pc. nothing happened. Only there is a plugging sound in pc. In device manager my phone is recognized as QHSUSB_BULK with yellow exclamatory sign. :crying: . i can't flash another rom because
Stock Recovery isn't working.
Yesterday i took my phone to service center, they told me they can't fix it. i am very frustrated right now.

IF ANY ONE CAN HELP ME, I WILL BE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.
HELP! HELP! :crying:
There have been warnings everywhere to not downgrade the bootloader after going to Marshmallow, the Kitkat easy installer most likely did that. There's nothing you can do, other than get a new phone.

I had the same problem. Like the guy said... no other option BUY a NEW PHONE! At the moment that's the only option available. Everyone is waiting with eager anticipation for 6.0 update, if it's so good why are so many people going back to their previous OS version and bricking their phones? Motorola are not prepared to help at all claiming that downgrades are not supported and will never be supported. I go a new (2nd hand) XT1068 and I'm on 5.0.2. I WON'T be updating again that's for sure!
Guys a good news is the required mbm ci files have been released for moto g 1st gen and people have been successfully reviving their dead phones... Just keep hope and continue discussing in forums so that we get a solution as well... I am asking help from a couple of developers... hoping for the best. Cheers!! : )

. That's great for people with 1st gen phones. Lenovo / Motorola have said repeatedly on their forum that are aware of the problem but that they have no intention of releasing the required files for The Moto g2...
what is the proper way to downgrade from 6.0.1 to 4.4.4? or there is no way to downgrade. I also want to go back to kikat but there is no proper tutorial on forum so that i afraid.
my bootloader version is 48.86 !
I purchased the H811 off ebay last week because I am finally sick of my old Note 5 with no service at home. The G4 did great until I decided to flash it. The phone was on H81120i.
No big deal unlocking bootloader or installing TWRP. I flashed Lineage OS 14.1. About a minute after booting up, the phone got the error Camera stopped working. After checking more stuff on the device, nothing seems to work - i.e. - The accelerometer, speakers, microphone, flashlight, etc are dead. I installed a sensor test app and it doesn't detect any of the sensors.
After that, I downloaded LGUP and the stock KDZ file to flash back to phone hoping to fix it. Unfortunately, LGUP doesn't recognize the phone. It says unknown model but shows the com port, h81120i on the right hand side. I also tried LG FlashTool to see if that would work but it crashes about 26% into the it.
I have searched the forums up and down and have googled the crap out of this. I did find a thread from last month with a very similar issue a moment ago, https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/help/camera-stopped-audio-flashing-lg-g4-t3620516, and perhaps I should post in that thread, but my issue is that LG Bridge gives me an error stating it can't detect the software version.
If I were using Samsung, I don't think I would have this problem because I have unbricked several Samsung devices. The issue here is I am new to LG and have no idea if files are corrupt, if hardware was screwed, or what the situation is. I would hate to think that it was a $100 wasted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

maybe you got a frankenphone .. a supposely H811 and its not .. why not open it and see the actual motherboard and see wich variant you really have .seems like its not a h811 or try uppercut LGUP. see what it finds and downloads.

Uppercut found nothing... I opened the phone and found this though... EAX6658501_H810_MAIN_1.0
Of course, the tag on the inside of battery compartment says H811 with a date of 02/2016. Would it be a refurb or what? Anyway, I may be on the right track now.

maybe yes .. cover h811 and so software easy to edit.. but the only way is that take the motherboard and read the variant.
h810 is att?
I checked out the AT&T forum and found nothing other than stock that, obvious under my current situation, I can't flash because lgup with uppercut nor lg flash tools can flash.
LGUP gives an error code in the log file. PACKET_ERROR code = 1460
The phone internet still works. It has downloaded an update from t-mobile that's 460+MB that I can't install because I'm rooted with TWRP. Is it possible to update the phone with adb and TWRP? If I could find stock recovery, I would flash that and using autoprime's bootloader flash it back, even remove root if the update may revive the device.
After a week, a thought occurred to me and i tried it. I backed up a working h811 ( minus efs partition) with twrp with 20o firmware to an sd card then restored that version to this phone. I immediately wiped and flashed G4 20o with root zip file. It unbricked the phone and I'm currently using it.
Thanks raptorddd for replying and helping me. It seems that somewhere in the flash process something was corrupted and this fixed it.

youre welcomed but then phone is H811? or H810 i know that what ever the motherboard says thats your variant. am glad you have back up and running. :good:
It is crazy because the board said 810 but it had h81120i official when i got it. It worked but i have always used custom roms. Oh well, I'm going to stay stock with root. Just need to debloat now.
