Basically I woke up in the morning and my cognition 2.2 beta 9.1.2 had reflashed itself like I had just flashed it. I thought it was a bit weird, so I decided to try to install apps. It said I had no space for it, which was not true as I have plenty of space. When I restart my phone I lose all my settings etc, so I decided to try an odin oneclick restore, but it's stuck in download mode, and odin seems stuck saying "<ID:0/005> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!" I've been waiting for about 10 minutes now and i'm getting rather worried, as it has never taken this long. It seems like a hardware failure to me. What would be the next course of action?
I ended up successfully flashing back to stock, but now after boot, nothing is displayed. on the device, the keys do light up and respond to touch, however.
Update: Took it to the at&t store today and they gave me a brand new cappy, though unfortunately I can't put this one into download mode for some reason. Anyone know how to fix that? XD

I just got my One a week ago today, and rooted it the first day as well. From last Wednesday to earlier today, I've had no issues at all with it; suddenly, audio is not working at all, either through the headphone jack or speakers. I thought it might be a ROM issue, so I reflashed the ROM clean (PACMan 4.2.2), and it still didn't work. I flashed 2 other ROMs, SlimBean and a Sense 4.2.2 based one, and the audio still doesn't work at all. I've done nothing that could've damaged it; I don't overclock, it's never gotten wet, nothing. Has anyone else had this issue, and know a fix, or do I have to return it to stock and turn it back into Sprint?
Also, another note- earlier today it was getting really hot for no reason- I wasn't running anything that would do that, no OC like I said. I Googled, and many people said it was a common occurrence due to the aluminum body dispelling heat from the internals. It went away after 20 minutes or so, so I figured it wasn't an issue. Could that have done some damage? Thank you for any help in this, I'm really worried since I just got the phone and it's already having issues. I've loved it otherwise so far, and owned 3 other HTC phones, and nothing like this has happened before, so I hope it's just a one time thing.
I don't have the audio issue with any rom I flashed, maybe your device is damaged. You can return it for a new one.
I also have the heat problem...

I've been backing up my stuff to get it ready to take back. I hear the blue model's coming to Sprint on the 10th, maybe I can hold out a few more days and pick up one of those
Update- I've been trying all morning to restore to stock, and I'm getting worried now.
I went by this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250904 to use that RUU to return to stock. I am trying to relock my bootloader in fastboot, and I get the error "[Err] Command Error!" each time I try. To use the RUU, I need to have a locked bootloader, but I can't get a locked bootloader because of that error. What might be wrong here? I am using the stock USB cable with a USB 2.0 port, Windows 7 32 bit.
Alright, it turns out that was due to a stupid error on my part. I have got my bootloader relocked, but now when I try to flash the RUU, I get the 171 USB Connection error. It'll get stuck on the black HTC screen at that point. What could possibly be wrong now?!?! If anyone has any tips, I can provide as much further information as you may need.
Hi everybody, I'm new to LG, this is my first LG phone since my original LG Vu many many years ago, and i have a couple questions. I've searched everywhere here on XDA and a couple other forum sites, as well as general google searches. First off my Flex is on 4.2.2 and it doesn't seem I have any way to update to 4.4.2. Whenever I try the update from my phone it says "your phone is not registered" and when I try with the LG computer software it just says my device is up to date. I've seen the not registered error mentioned a few times before and I tried the suggestions given, like getting a new sim card and doing a factory reset, but no luck. I've seen a few people mention that they flashed the update manually with something called LG Flash Tool, but I cant find any info on that whatsoever. My model is the AT&T D950 by the way. Secondly I am having absolutly horrible lag with this phone, specifically list scrolling, mostly in apps such as Google+, YouTube, and Facebook, all the reviews i read before getting the Flex said it was super smooth, thays why I got it, so is there something I should so, or is lag like this normal? Because I can't scroll through YouTube or Google+ without it hanging every couple seconds. If anybody that has more experience then me with this phone or LG in general could help me out with these or just point me in the right direction, that would be greatly appreciatex.

If you are on AT&T, take the phone to the store and have them update it for you. If you are on another carrier you will have to manually flash the update. As for the lag, I have also just got the Flex and I have not had any lag, but I have always done a Factory data reset before I do anything else.

Yeah I'm on AT&T. Thanks for the tips, I really appreciate it. Unfortunately nothing seems to work. I've tried downloading the LG PC software from their website but it just tells me I'm up to date, I can't find any info on how to use the LG flash tool thing, and I just went into 3 different AT&T stores, one of which was a device support center, and they all said they have not way to flash the LG G Flex because LG stopped supporting the tool they had to flash it with so it no longer works. So it looks like I'm stuck on 4.2.2. It's a shame really because I really got this phone to test out LG before the G3 comes out to see how I would like it since I'm up for an upgrade, and I absolutely LOVE it, but I'm not dropping money + a contract on a phone that might have issue upgrading the software, I mean we already wait long enough for android updates on non-nexus phones, but then even when it's available you can't update it because there is some sort of issue between AT&T and LG servers. And the worst part is it's not just me or this model phone. I have seen tons of people having the same issue with G2's and G Pro 2's but nobody seems to be able to figure it out. It really suck. But thanks for all the tips and help, like I said I really appreciate it!
Just want to give an update for anyone else that has this issue and might come across this thread. After going to 2 more stores, getting 2 more new SIMs, and 2 more factory updates, then spending about an hour on the phone with tech support with them trying to "push" the update to me, then another 2 hours on chat support with them trying to "push" it to me, I am no closer to any kind of solution.
Just another update, AT&T filed a case and I can now check for software update through settings, and it tells me an update to 4.4.2 is available, but once it downloads the update fails, it tell me my device is suspected of rooting and software update is not available for my device. My device is not, and has never been rooted. So I don't know where to go from here. This is the most frustrating thing I have ever encountered in my 4+ years with android lol. My next phone will definitely not be an LG phone, which is a shame because I just got this one to test out LG while waiting for the G3 to make it to AT&T.
did you buy this new?
isnt there a warranty from ATT?

Can you post a screenshot of the message you're getting that says your device is suspected of rooting?
Yes I bought it new from an AT&T COR store. Yeah it has warranty, I actually just went to the support center and exchanged it after explaing that it has never been rooted or else I would post a screenshot, I didnt even think about doing that, I remeber the error exactly though, I must have tried it a dozen times. When I went to software update it said a new update is available and I clicked yes to download, after it downloaded it rebooted into that LG screen with the cartoony hills and stuff and it said updating 0% for about 2 mins, the in big letters it said ERR:0x0011341, and it rebooted back into the ROM and everthing loaded up, after about a minuter I got a popup that said Error: Your device is suspect in rooting, your device is not available for software update, then any time I tried to run software update that popup would come back up unless I did a factory reset, then it would start the whole thing over with the same results. Like I said, I just got a replacement and am downloading the update now, I'll post back and let you know what happens.
Its not that unusual for a phone to get hosed when trying to download/install an OTA update.
Is is unusual for a message like you saw, about being a "suspect" for rooting; I don't think I have ever heard of that before..
All that matters is you got a new phone, so thats a good thing
Yeah i thought it was weird too, the weirdest pat was i did the return to stock from the other thread here just to see if that would fix the issue and it still said the same thing, it even did it after factory resets, like something had been tripped and couldnt be reset. Im no stranger to rooting, I've been doing it for years, i just never did it with phone cuz there isn't a whole lot you can do with it. But the new one just updated to 4.4.2 no problem so the issue is fixed. It was all just really strange, i found a thread here from another person getting the same error on a G2 http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...tware-update-not-available-rooted-device.html

I'm having this same issue, but I did root my device. I completely unrooted it, and tried again with no luck. I thought it was me. Looking forward to hearing if you have success with the replacement. If so, I'm definitely taking this guy in. ?

Idk what's the problem with Samsung phones and updates. I had the same problem with my Note 3 when KitKat got released, I had to get a replacement phone. Lucky for me the replacements Note 3 didn't have the update on it. However I wasn't so lucky with the Note 4.
I accidently hit the update on my notifications when I was half sleep.
Anyways.
Every since Lollipop been installed on my Note 4, it has been a nightmare from hell.
When I installed it on my original Note 4, I kept having my keyboard become unresponsive. Force close on multiple apps (stock Web, camera, calender, and more).
I called T-Mobile to see if they could send me a replacement. They "tried" to fix it, saying that I should do a factory reset and clear cache , which I already tried before I called numerous times.
Finally they said they said they were going to send me out a replacement phone.
I also asked if anyone have been complaining about Lollipop they said no, they were totally oblivious to Lollipop having any kinks (as always ). It's crazy they said that because I have read over 100 post bashing the new update.
I received the Note 4. I turned the phone on and Lollipop was already installed. I called T-Mobile and asked why was Lollipop installed on my replacement, they informed me that they are sending out the phones with Lollipop, and assured there would be no problems with it.
With in the first hour, my phone would turn off and not turn back on. I knew there was nothing wrong with the battery because it was on 90% and it worked flawless with another phone. So I drained all the electricity out the phone and put the battery back in. That worked, but it did over 20 times within that day. I called T-Mobile again , they told me I would have to go to a store and see if they could diagnosis the phone.
The next day I went to the store, everything came back clear on the diagnosis, but they could see it turn off randomly.
I called customer care and explained the situation and told them I need a replacement.
Now I am waiting on a replacement. If this one don't work, I think I will have to get on whole different phone. I'm on the verge of getting a flip phone because I know that I don't want to have an iPhone.
Anyone having these issues with the update Lollipop?
I've never heard about an update getting positive reviews from users, most get bashed.
Fortunately I don't have those issues, nor have I had any with updates. Have you tried to odin the stock firmware? That's all I can really think of.

It seems like I tried everything. I haven't tried that though. I will try that today, if my phone ever boots up.

As long as you can get it into download mode something may be possible.
Odin to stock lollipop, factory reset / data wipe.
Additionally, I would consider a custom rom.
..........
If you really like kitkat better you could also Odin to stock kitkat, factory reset / data wipe.

Lol thanks for the help. I can't even get it to turn on, to get it in download mode. ??
. Now I'm just waiting on T-Mobile to send the replacement.
Hi guys, I have a situation, I have a tmo S6, few months ago i started having problems with my usb port, I could charge my phone but my pc wouldn't recognize my phone to transfer data, i had a message "USB device not recognized". as i said I could charge. My problem got worse because last week i received tmo's upgrade to MM (I was in LL). I took the bad decision to take the upgrade, because once the installation was done, my phone tried to reboot and it got stuck on the "Galaxy S6" logo. I have already wiped factory reset and cache, but it's still stuck.
I cannot re-install with Odin because pc does not recognize my phone. Before upgrade I was on Lollipo OJ7 stock and rooted, but now when I go to recovery, I get PD1 recovery menu, I guess PD1 got installed but don't know why it got stuck.
Please, is there a way to rescue my phone??
Thank you
When i bricked my s4 i had the same issues you speak of. Your pretty much helpless to bringing your phone back. There is a solution though. Its called jtag and if things havent changed recently you should be able to find someone on ebay or amazon who you can send your phone to that will take it apart and solder wires to the motherboard. In doing so it bypasses the usb port altogether. Then they can load firmware back onto the phone. I was lucky enough to still have my hard drive intact with all photos, songs, and apps. It cost around 30$ and its usually all done within a week. I wish i could tell you a simple way but unfortunately its the only solution i found when i had this problem. Make sure they have a good rating and just look up your phone followed by jtag repair. Good luck i hope you find a more simple way of fixing. If not give it a shot. I mean you really only have 30$ to lose.
Hey, thanks for your answer, that's a good option, i will search for this jtag service online, I hope i can get it fixed. Just like you i'm running out of options and as you said it's on 30 dlls to try. Thnaks man.
No problem glad i can help. Hope all goes well and your back with our s6 family shortly.
