LG G5 (RS988) stuck on firmware update - LG G5 Questions & Answers

So I searched on internet to find any solution of the problem i am facing and i couldn't find one. I had a rooted LG G5 (RS988) with the nougat version RS98821c, or at least that's what LG UP is detecting now. I decided to do a factory reset (first mistake). The phone started looping by rebooting into my TWRP recovery, So I wiped data and cache, and then tried flashing the KDZ file RS98811c (It's the only thing available for my device on LG's website) via LGUP. But after booting into firmware update (second mistake ) the LG UP tool won't allow me flashing RS98811c no matter what option i choose. The firmware on LG website is MArshmallow and I had Nougat so i guess that's that. Now there are other 3 files, i tried 2 of them RS98810h and RS98810d, same problem. Tried flashing recovery via fastboot too but it won't boot into recovery anymore. Now my device can only go into fastboot or Firmware update. So what are my options now? Is my device truly ****ed? coz i don't have warranty now and i am no more in US now (The device is from US).

Update : I forgot to mention, I tried LG Bridge (it doesn't recognize my device) I tried LG support tool(it needs MTP enabled i suppose, since my device won't boot it isn't possible), it does recognize the device but says i am on the latest firmware for my product.

I cant do anything now. I tried to factory reset the phone didnt work. The phone doesnt react to any CMD commands.
I cant enter the TWRP.
I used LG UP to flash the device but LG UP doesnt recognizes my phone correctly, neither in USB Download Mode or in the so calles status, where i just got the blackscreen with the Message"Your device software cant be checked for corruption".
Maybe you guys have a solution.
PS. Sorry for bad english
as long you can start into download mode, your device is not bricked.
this thread should help installing and using LGUP correctly.

there is an answer by autoprime to your question

The unique programmers required for the G5 for BoardDiag to work are not public so forcing your way into 9008 won't get you anywhere.

with 9008 he means qhsusb_bulk. The drivers you will need are from Qualcomm, once BoardDiag files for G5 are public.
were the boarddiag files ever made public?
Facing the Same problem
I am now facing the above mentioned problem. My g5 h850 doesn't do anything and the only sign of life there is when i connect it to my PC and it picks up as Qualcom hs- usb Qdloader 9008 other than that no display no sound from the handset whatsoever tried getting it into download mode but it won't show anything. I installed all the drivers and tried connecting with lg up but it doesn't pick the phone on any com ports. Is my phone completely damaged or can I do something to bring it back to life. Please help someone
qfil with firehose or octoplus may solve your problem
Can't find the required files anywhere

QFIL needs PrimaryGPT_0.bin file through firmware extractor but no matter what stock firmware i extract I get multiple patch files like PrimaryGPT_0.bin, PrimaryGPT_1.bin, PrimaryGPT_2.bin, PrimaryGPT_3.bin .......PrimaryGPT_7.bin and when I try to get them through emmc it won't recognize any of the GPT files. That's the step where I am stuck plus I can't seem to find the mbn file for H850
I have lg v20, I too hardbricked my phone, when I extract any kdz I got 7 gpt files. primarygpt0 to primarygpt06 as you said.
are you sure we only need primargpt0 to flash via qfil? i think we need proper firehose/ programmer file and rawprogram file
Maybe I hard bricked mine:
Flashed with uppercut in download mode but with every KDZ file in UPGRADE mode I tried , after the second lg logo with sound of wellcome, it freeze and reboot over and over, it seems that crushes in infinite bootloop. Is this hard bricked?
no, this is not hardbricked. atleast you can enter into download mode.

LGUP not flashing any ROM in my V10... Phone is without any ROM... NEED HELP...!!!

I was running a MarshMallow update for the last 6 months and suddenly today morning I just decided to flash the "rootedsystemh960a.tot" from one of the forums here at XDA. First it did flashed the ROM using LGUP but then the Phone was stuck with LG LOGO for minutes and then I flashed it again with my stock UAE MM 6.0 ROM. It did work. Then I reflashed again hoping for the ROOTED ROM to work on my phone and ever since LGUP is giving me this error code with a message " lgup error code 0x2000 invalid command response" and it keeps crashing. Now I have tried to switch windows and tried to flash many ROMs and it wont stand a chance. Why this error message is coming? Can anyone of you experts figure this out? Even the COM ports are matching at LGUP and in my DEVICE MANAGER. Please help me. I am stuck with this mobile. ...:crying:
Little info about my phone. It is a UAE/DUBAI Variant of LG V10 - H960A, and officially I am not allowed to unlock my BOOTLOADER by the LGE itself. I had tried before bootloader unlock modes.. Anyways its not the point here right now.. The main thing is LGUP is crashing again and again.. Is there any other utility in place of LGUP for flashing LG ROMS ????
Well that .tot file was for Lollipop only that was your mistake in this probably and it has corrupted your system somehow. I'm afraid I have no idea how to deal with this phone as I don't modify this one myself because of the lack of development/devs.
I think there is something called LGFlashTool also.

Even flashtool aint doing a job.. When I try to run Get device info from within the LG FlashTool, the application crashes...God! Cant they develop some stable running apps for their customers?
Hi,
can you enter the download mode on your V10? Then it might be possible to flash a clean (unrooted) MM via LG Bridge. Some time ago I tried to install the latest MM Version V20e on my V10 with LGUP. For some reason that failed and left me with a phone without ROM, too. Afterwards the V10 was not recognized by LGUP anymore.
Luckily I was still able to enter the download mode manually. So I connected the phone to my PC and started LG Bridge which still did recognize it as a V10 H960a. So selecting Firmware update and then clicking in the bottom right corner of the window on a link saying something like "repair flash errors" or "repair update errors" (I'm currently at work and cannot check) did a complete clean install of the latest firmware.
Maybe you're lucky and this works for you too.

Well hello, I found the solution for my problem and I was able to flash the ROM successfully. Its some kind of new utility amalagamated with LGUP and it does flash without any problems. Found out it was related to some corrupt dll file or incompatible file I had in my LGUP library for the ROM FLASHING to fail all the time... You just read this first post on this link and you will be all fine. Trust me ...:highfive::good::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Just dont forget to follow the rules exactly as mentioned and if you can run it in the Virtual Machine I would prefer you to do that but you have to do everything like installing LG DRIVERS + LGUP + LGUP DLL FILE + UPPERCUT as mentioned in this post. Because if you are running antivirus on your PC, it will detect this UPPERCUT TOOL as some trojan horse or some kind of malware. I did that in my VM as I already had my VM configured for my LG V10 Flashing process.
Do it and do let me know should you encounter any problem. May be I can help later on.

How to Fix LG G2 Bricked with few easy steps

Referring to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/mega-tut-how-to-fix-bricked-lg-g2-t3055033
I have found a shorter method of unbricking your LG G2 after troubleshooting uppermentioned method for quite some time with no result.
Your phone is stuck at boot in Dload>Download-Mode>Fastboot, mine is LG G2 D802
Your phone will not do Hard Reset when entering recovery and selecting Yes
Windows 10:
- First Install LG G2 Driver. v4.x works fine, I tried many and didn't have any problems in that regard, drivers all work fine
- Download LG Flash Tool 2014, not the fancy new one, but this old version
- Find the most accurate backup .KDZ file of your phone's OS, mine is EU16GB, and the file that worked for me was D80230d_00.kdz. Flashing the wrong rom will result in bootlooping that can be fixed by restarting the process.
1) USB connect your LG G2 in Dload/Fastboot to your PC
2) Run LG Flash Tool 2014 with DEFAULT SETTINGS, press select KDZ file, find the KDZ OEM ROM you found online that matches your phone perfectly, select Normal Flash and click Start
3) Your phone reboots into Firmware Update
Firmware update is the flashing process happening
If it fails you can try again by restarting your phone, or try another KDZ ROM
4) Once the flashing is done the phone restarts itself and boots into the OEM OS
5*) if unsuccessful try a different .kdz, personally I had to try three of them ,_,
i pulled these steps from my memory, i try updating if something is wrong
If I may ask, what do you mean with "1) USB connect your LG G2 in Dload/Fastboot to your PC"?
Could yoiu please elaborate what "in Dload/Fastboot to your PC" means?
