OK, this post might be long. Feel free to skim. I just want to let people know everything that I've done.
So, my VS980 was rooted and I was trying to install a new ROM. I was going to try out Cloudy G2, but the installation routine only gave me international variants to choose from. I picked one anyway and my phone has been hosed since. I didn't have any download mode or recovery or anything.
I was able to get download mode back by extracting part of the firmware out with the LG Firmware Extractor and flashing that through fastboot. So, that part worked. I have download mode. I was going to try to restore my 24A firmware with a KDZ file and the old LG flash tool v 1.8.1 (the one where you put the ADB interface on COM41, and you use the updated megaunlock.dll, etc), but that no longer works for me. It keeps giving me the "failed previous load" error. I can't find a fix for that.
So, I've been trying to flash it (or firmware 26) with the LG Flash Tool 2014 (the one where you pick "Republic of Korea"). That will only get to between 25 and 49%, and then crash with an unknown error.
In between trying that option, I found instructions for extracting all of the bits out of the firmware and then flashing them to the phone partitions one by one. That seemed to work except I kept getting a security error on bootup. The only fix I found for that was to flash with the first flash tool I mentioned. Ugh.
The last time I rooted my phone and ran a custom ROM, my desktop USBs couldn't communicate with my phone very well, but my laptop could. This time not even the laptop's working. I even bought a new USB addon card (I needed it anyway, the USB3 ports on this suck). That seemed to get the computer to see the phone better, but it didn't solve my problems.
Can anyone help with this? I've scoured tons of directions already.
Thank you for any help
