Root [International] Unbrick LG G2

[Mohsin Ali Khan]

hi, i had cloudy g2 3.0 installed on my lg g2. i connected it to lg support tool and it recognized my phone as f320 K. i started downloading update. after downloading, it got stuck at 9 %. i entered in to download mode and it worked but again stopped at 99 % . i suppose my phone installed bootloader as it shows "alleh" logo only when i turn it on (i thnk its korean carrir). i m downloading update again via download mode. i want to ask, what went wrong?, any idea?

what is your real model, and what is the model in flash tool?

 

[alimzi]

LG Support Tool as recognized my phone too, but he made nothing, because i'm flashed the wrong model, and in flash tools have Flag F320S. I think your your only way out is force QHUSB_BULK.
Is not hard to do

Yeah you are right, it does recognize the phone but thats all.
I will probably do just that then. Thanks for your help guys, ill report back with further info.

BTW, Device manager shows LGE AndroidNet USB Modem...

try via ADB or fastbool flash the correct partitions.

When i install the SO via .tot file the system show korean version xD

How can I try ADB when I cannot enter fastboot? Im stuck at the 5 dots download screen.

you need force qhsusb_bulk

 

[alimzi]

you need force qhsusb_bulk

I am stuck at a weird situation. Before bricking, my phone's firmware was D80220b, and that is what was detected by the LG support tool as well. However, after checking the inside i found out its actually D800! Which version img files should I flash??
I managed to force qhsusb_bulk mode. But I am now confused as to which files I should flash.

Awaiting responses. Thanks in advance.

D800 aboot, boot, dbi, laf, rpm, sbl1, and tz to regain download mode. Then you can flash a D800 tot via lg flash tools from download mode. Flash the tot, along with the 8974 dll found earlier in this thread. You will have D800 firmware which you won't be able to update via OTA but you can root, recovery (d800) and custom rom your way forward or bump your way up to and including lollipop. For that though, you'd want to flash straight to a KitKat tot:

Basically, you treat your phone as a d800 in every way from now forward.

Thanks for the reply man! Appreciate it!
The link you shared is indeed for KitKat tot right?

 

[iowabowtech]

It is KitKat yes.

 

[alimzi]

What is the difference between 10d and 10o partitions? And which one am I supposed to use?

 

[iowabowtech]

You can use either. O is a little newer, go with those.

I am getting QHSUSB_BULK mode on windows device manager, but it does not say 9006 or 9008. Furthermore, nothing happens when I plug it in in Ubuntu....

You need to apply the Qualcomm USB driver to know what mode you are in. It will then show 9006, 9008, etc in device manager so you know where you stand.

If you are using the kdz tool, you only need the kdz. In that event, use the "cse" flash method in the tool.

A dll is only needed if you are using the tot method. In that case there are two target files, the tot and a device dll.

Used tot and dll. Now in stock att. Can I upgrade to italian lollipop via kdz flash? What would you recommend as the best possible way to get lollipop.

Also on a different topic, before when I had the D802 rom i had 3g working. Now it does not work. I am in Germany Europe.

 

[iowabowtech]

I'm a little surprised since the d800 typically works internationally by most accounts.

Could you suggest something? What can I do to make it work?
Is flashing the italian (or any other european for that matter) lollipop a good idea?

I'm not sure I'd try flashing d802 stock system.img onto a d800 phone. You could try though, I'm honestly not sure what the consequences of that would be. If you feel adventurous you could try flashing a bump'd twrp and a bump'd boot.img along with the LP modem and system. Otherwise, root, custom recovery and a rom such as Cloudy or another which is intended for multiple devices.
