LG G2 bricked by doing factory reset ?

MOOGLEYS · 23 Sep 2015 at 17:54

I have sold my G2 on the MM so carried out a factory data reset from within the phone today. It did its thing ok but now when I power up it just shows a green android picture with no text ? It does not load any further.

I have tried holding buttons to get into the recovery but nothing does anything other than the android picture. The PC software does not recognise the phone as being connected either.

Does anyone have any ideas or is it bricked/dead....?

No not dead mate, sent you a trust.

You might need to hard flash the device, with a age which can be done in fastboot.

I'm not sure I can get into fast boot tbh. No matter what I try I just get a picture of the android and nothing else. I followed a guide but that did not work either....

I'm going to let lg sort it out as its under warranty.

If it is under warranty then that is your best option mate!

I hope you get it sorted, and sold on the MM with no issues.

Cheers mate it is a right pain as it was all sold and paid for.

Will see what LG say tomorrow.

Can you get it in to download mode?

You can re-flash the kdz file if so. Don't bother messing about with LG.

Nope cannot get it into any mode. LG were helpful and have agreed that it is faulty and are arranging for it to be collected and repaired.
