Just got my phone into download mode after using the jig, and i have been able to connect to my pc before i seriously F'd my phone by messing with a setting in cwm. I have downloaded and redownloaded drivers from samsungs website, along with installing Kies and that does not recognize my phone. (also i would like to add i am unable to access the phone since it wont turn on without the jig, without jig it just goes into a boot loop.)
THis is what happens when i plug my phone into the computer:
plug in usb (to computer and phone)
let it do its thing to recognize device...
pop-up stating "unknown device" so i click it.
then right-click the unknown device which opens up another window
from this menu it shows Install driver, Update driver and 3 other options.
when i press install driver and update driver, it tells me that the driver is already installed in "device unknown."
At this point i throw computer at wall after 2 days of trying to figure this out.
so messed around and the problem only happens when it is in download mode. but when it is not in download mode it shows up but no use to me because i am trying to flash it to stock. soo i dont know why the error 43 only shows up when in download mode. any help would be great.

Just follow this to update the drivers http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571 , same thing as what you have done earlier but this time , when it searches for new drivers, you can do the selection for it.
But first reboot your PC after pulling out power cord ...and try the quick solutions first
Ok sen, so i tried to install the driver manually but i am stuck at the part where i have to install something on my phone to allow it to sync with the computer, since my phone will not even boot up. I am starting to think my dear Capi is going to be a paper weight =(
Hello, I have a Verizon LG G2 that is stuck in download mode. I was trying to unroot my phone using this method:
theunlockr(dot)com/2013/10/31/unroot-lg-g2-verizon/
Then, at step 12, where it was flashing the stock image, it stopped and got stuck.
I have tried using the LG Mobile Support Tool to restore my phone, but the process gets stuck on 10% and gives me an error. I have tried to install the drivers, but adb never recognizes my phone. I have a second LG G2 that adb did recognize, but it doesn't recognize the one in download mode. I am unable to access recovery via adb or button combinations. Every time i turn the phone off it goes straight back into download mode only when it's plugged in, otherwise it goes black and the only thing it does is vibrate when I hold down the power button. I don't know what else to try, what should I do?
Thanks.
Edit: the LG Mobile Support Tool recognizes my device as "LGVS980" and the Software Version as "VS98024A."
Hi,
Am a novice when it comes to rooting, unlocking android devices. So please excuse my ignorance and my long-winded style of writing. I want the expert users to educate me on this issue and so I don't want to miss any trivial (or not so trivial) information.
1) So, I got Samsung gear live from ebay. It came with a sprat-userdebug 5.0.1. After googling I found out that it's a user/refurb build and can't be updated to 5.1.1
2) Thanks to rootjunky! I used Gear live restore tool V3 and unlocked the bootloader (option 2). Faced few issues in getting the driver. However, fixed everything and unlocked it. Flast TWRPd it (option 8). Flashed recovery (option 4) and bootimage (option 5). Then I sideloaded stock image from 4.4W.2 (using boot.img and system.img). That was the version I found after googling.
3) Then I tried to update it via OTA download. Download completed and it went back to recovery mode and did't apply the download. There was an error message that said something like "Unable to verify the download"
4) Tried multiple times and no luck with that
5) Then tried to sideload new version 5.1.1 LCA43 from xda wiki page. However, when my device went to recovery mode, my pc lost the connection and i wasn't able to sideload (received - device "null" not found" - error from adb command)
6) Until this point I was able to pair my device with my samsung S5 phone and only problem was not able to install the update
7) Then I reset my watch to factory setting, restarted multiple times, went to recovery mode to boot as a new device etc. No luck
8) Then I did something I shouldn't have done (or I think I shouldn't have done). Used option 7 root gear live. When the system went to SH mode, I panicked and closed the cmd prompt and hard reset the device by holding power button
9) After this step, I was not able to pair my device with my phone. Now the version says 4.4W.1 - KGW42N
10) Tried resetting my device, restarted it, used recovery mode to restart it, revoked all debug access, deleted adbkey from my PC, uninstalled android SDK, all drivers, etc. Reinstalled it again with no help.
11)Suddenly android wear in my phone sees my wifirouter as a device (strange)
11) When I plug in the device to my Pc, I could see it in my device manager. When I use recovery tool it says unregistered device and asking me to register it via my phone. Where as am not able to pair it with my phone. Tried to pair it with a new phone (moto e) and no help either
12)Somewhere read that disabling wifi in the phone before pairing works. Tried that and no luck
So here am with a bricked device that stays in the screen where it says "install android wear in your phone" and detects nothing else. Am able to go to bootloader mode, recovery mode from the device. However when it's in recovery mode, my PC doesn't detect it. Even the recovery tool says unregistered device.
Please help in unbricking this device and thank you for reading thru the whole problem. Any help would be much appreciated!
Use Gear live restore tool v2. Lots of known issues with v3
Thanks for the reply. I will try this. However, how will I make my device discoverable? Now, none of my phones detect my device.
So I guess I will get "Unauthorized Device" error when I use recovery tool. Could you please let me know if there's other way around? Or am i missing something?
I've never used it
Pretty sure all the info you need is in the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-live/development/utility-gear-live-watch-tool-t2846696
No luck. Tried V2. Tool doesn't recognize my watch. It says 'Device Unauthorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device'. My device is stuck in 'Install Android wear on your phone' screen.
unbricked using v2 of the tool. Now trying to update the os version. Will see if I can get lucky this time. Thanks for the help!
All is good now. Now my gear live is running on 5.1.1 with latest updates.
Good work
Please can you tell what exactly you done, as I'm on the same root.. and I'm using win 10... but without any luck so far..

Simple procedure.
Just download v2 of this tool
Make sure to install USB drivers
Unlock bootloader - option 2
Then use option 6 to flash it. Then you'll get new OTA updates.
Refer rootjunky video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7oRjESQh_o
I'm not able to pair my device with my phone. Now the version says 4.4W.1 - KGW42N,
and ... I tried V2 and V3. Tool but doesn't recognize my watch. It says 'Device Unauthorized. My device is stuck in 'Install Android wear on your phone' screen.

Follow this procedure.
1)Make sure all drivers are installed properly in your PC
2) Make sure when you connect your device to your PC, it's discovered as unauthorized device. It's ok
3) Long press power button in the device and swipe from top left to botom right corner when you see samsung gear live logo
4)This will get the device to bootloader mode
5)Now connect the device to your PC and run V2 of the tool. Your device will be discovered in fastboot mode
6)Now select option 6 to flash the device to stock. It'll flash it
7) Now swipe down to highlight start and swipe from right to left to start. If it goes to Raw dump code = 6. do a hard restart by long pressing power button. You'll get back your device in original setting.
Check rootjunky youtube video to get the live demo of this procedure.

How did you get past this? I'm stuck here now too.
-- update after trying that procedure again, it worked to get to fastboot mode. Now I'm doing that 'option 6' to flash it.

sounds like USB driver issue. Please install correct drivers and follow the steps mentioned above. It should be unbricked.
Where can i find correct drivers? Additionally my Gear Live doesn't turn on and has only black screen.
I am confused on how to use the tool. My watch is stuck at the Install Android Wear App and won't do anything short of turning it off. How do I enable developer mode \ debugging without being able to get to the watch settings. Please help! Thanks

You need to factory reset first of all. After that let connect to your wifi, the updates will download on their own. They put a new one out today. I can't go into how but if you look at the forum and search the answers are there. There's even a tool to use.

If anyone has been paying attention to any of my threads you'd know i've been having a horrible time trying to get my LG G4 to work. After much trouble of not being able to connect my phone to the computer via download mode ( driver wont start , code 10) my cyanogenmod recovery magically allowed me to install the supersu zip to root the system, and finally the global root access option in cm13 worked which enabled me to install an app and flash twrp. From here I was able to download prometheus rom, and install it from twrp because the cm recovery kept giving me errors., ran smoothly.. was able to get all of my downloaded apps retrieved via google. I reboot the phone this morning after deleting some un wanted apps I had now i'm getting ' secure boot error 1003" and will not boot past the Lg screen. I am really at a lost here and would appreciate it if someone would take the time out to help me. Now I am totally screwed because I cant get windows to install the download mode driver correctly as there is a yellow exclamation mark next "LGE Android MTP device" with a code 10. That is important because adb/fastboot wont recognize the device unless this driver is running and working. I mean sheesh ive tried this on three computers and cant get this da*n driver to install, really? am i seriously missing something? lg software wont even recognize my phone unless its in download mode and even then, will fail to run because * the device can not start* so the software shuts down
Please, help. and if any suggestions, please provide tutorials to back it up.

This happened to me last night. I tried to "relock" the bootloader. I had to put the phone in download mode, and recover using LG bridge. I found several different ways to accomplish the download mode listed but only one worked., i believe it was here. http://www.androidexplained.com/lg-g4-how-to-boot-into-download-mode/
I used these directions mostly but did one thing a little differently
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.
Instead of using the KDZ files, I used lg bridge. Once i was actually in download mode, and lg bridge recognized my phone, i went the the software update tab and clicked on the error recovery, the tool downloaded the proper rom, installed in and I was back to stock, no root.
Take the cover off of your battery, have a good usb cable handy. I had to remove the battery, hold the buttons and start over several times before I got it to work, but I did.
Good luck.

Thanks so much. Hopefully I can get this to work, if I can get the PC to see the LGE MTP download mode driver then the rest is golden. Will keep things updated. Will try when I get home.

bro, thanks for taking the time to write this out. Not sure what I was doin wrong before, but i was able to flash back to stock
Hello,
I have a somewhat aged Idol 4 lying here.
This no longer boots or it hangs in the boot loop.
So I tried to install an update via a stock rom from the network via the recovery menu and ADB sideload and always got the error status 7. (Alcatel_Idol_4_6055K_01001_01002_OTA)
Resetting the system didn't help here either.
Then I tried to install TWRP on the device.
But unfortunately both methods that I tried failed.
Once via Sahara & firehose-test and the second was Suger QCT via the download mode.
But both of them got the error message NPRG Error 5002.
I have installed suitable USB drivers.
So my question, does anyone have a tip for me on how I could get the device revived?
And Sorry for my bad english

Hello, I deleted my system from twr without realizing what I was doing, the result is that I stay on the Alcatel logo. My steps were, the installation of sugar, when it starts not to update the application. Choose the 6055 model, since the 6055P model that is mine does not appear in the drop-down. Before starting sugar, turn off the mobile completely and connect it off to the usb of the pc, check if when connecting it the pc does not detect it, use another cable (there are many cables that only serve to charge and not to read on the pc) Now start sugar, choose the model and click on the Udgrade tab. You will surely get several messages saying that the mobile has been modified and that you lose the guarantee, go ahead accepting the message, in a few minutes you will have it ready. Greetings.

Hello, thanks for the answer and the download.
I've tried the same way. I still downloaded your file and tried as you described.
Unfortunately I got the same error NPRG Error 5002 again.
Unfortunately I have no idea where the problem could be.
I found out that it could be a memory error.
As if a flash process had failed and there is no longer a correct series of partitions.
So I would need a complete original rom and would have to flash it via fastboot.
I could also try it via twrp, but I don't get this flashed.
And I don't have a complete original rom either.
Hello,
So I have now been able to flash the phone with another PC with Sugar QCT after it suddenly started up after the battery was completely empty and I charged it again.
But unfortunately the boot problem persists after turning off the phone again.
Even after replacing the battery with a new one.
Then I tried to flash TWRP via the Alcatel Flasher.
The flash process was successful but there was no TWRP on it after the reboot.
So the problem could still be somewhere else than just the firmware.

Hello, it may be that you are making the same mistake that I made when installing recoveri. When selecting the recovery, note that the twr is the one that weighs about 14 mb and the original one about 24 mb. I think that when you make a copy with the recovery program and then install the twr you select it wrong. In the program, do not make the copy of the recovery, skip that step and go directly to install and select the 14 mb file. You will see that this is the problem. Cheers
