Did you install msxml.msi?

yes I did. I also tried running it from another computer with a different os and got the same messages.

Any ideas on what I could try to recover my phone? Thanks!!

I think I know what it is, I'll create a method that will fix it as soon as I have time. I thought I would last Wednesday, but something came up.

Much appreciated.... You are the Whiz...

Hey I've also encountered this problem which seems to be a soft brick on my T-mobile. My device is stuck rebooting. I have tried the above fix and it seems to work except comes up with the error WParam: 100 and LParam: 64 so I click ok and try to boot up and it is still soft-bricked. I really appreciate the help!!

I discovered there are actually 2 "debrick" modes.
Download Mode gets you to the screen you see in the original post in this thread.
Emergency Mode is entered by holding Power and Volume UP and quickly plugging in the USB cable. It gets you a black screen with white lettering that reads like this:
I tried flashing a .kdz file in both modes and didn't notice a different. I thought that maybe the Emergency Mode would wipe user data first, but I don't believe it did. Anyway, if you're still having problems after flashing in Download Mode, maybe try Emergency Mode.

I just had this error as well. Disabling anti-virus (Avast) didn't help. I booted into a different install of Windows on the same laptop, this one with Avast disabled, and it worked fine. So if you're still having problems, try disabling your anti-virus, or even uninstalling it completely, or of course just try another computer.
I did also restore a CWM backup between boots, so I suppose it's possible that the flashing software is doing some kind of check to make sure some basic components are in place before doing the flash.

There should be one final step added to the instructions: after a successful flash and bootup, a factory reset should be performed, otherwise any files that were copied to the system partition during the previous install will still be there (which means you're not really starting with a clean slate).

That isn't required to unbrick (except in some cases). Besides some people are unbricking phones with important files they want/need back.

True, but the thread title is "Unbrick OR Unroot".
If the intention is to unroot for a warranty claim or something similar, people will want the device in a factory state. So maybe it should be an optional last stop in the guide.

There are already instructions if you're stuck in a bootloop
Just using LG tools I was able to un-brick my phone. I was unsuccessful with the steps and software provided through this guide. Kept getting errors no matter what I tried to do. But thanks anyway for your time. I learned a lot and I'm sure this could still be an option if LG tools don't work.

The milky way error doesn't mean anything if that's the error you are referring to. Thanks for the heads up
Hi, I keep getting this wparam=100 error also. Trying the tmobile kdz. I tried two different PCs, disabled the windows defender (otherwise no antivirus ), no luck. I did not have CWM backup so it's not an option. Are there other options to try ? btw, I did not root it or anything, it just stopped and when rebooting went into bootloop. What's the chance it's an hardware error so I should just move on ? Thanks for any suggestions.

Did you try a Factory Hard Reset? With the device off, press and old Power, Home and Volume Down for 8 seconds until "Factory Hard Reset" message appears, then press Power key to confirm.
Also, your computers should have some other anti-virus besides Windows Defender. Windows Defender is hardly anti-virus, and more a malware removal. So either there's another program on there for anti-virus which you should try disabling, or you need to install anti-virus on there immediately unless that computer never connects to the internet. I recommend Avast Free or Avira Free, the best free options.
Thanks. I did try everything I could find, including the factory hard reset, before I post. Thanks anyway. I called T-mobile today, and they say the phone is still under warranty, so they will send me a replacement. It's going to take 10 days to mail it though.
Still curious, many people seem to run into the same wparam=100 error. What's does that error mean ? In general, how does someone learn about the device specific technical info ? I don't suppose there is a LG SDK ? thanks
