So I bought an LG G2 (AT&T) off ebay and received it today. I was super excited to say the least. The first thing I did was power it on and was greeted as if it was a brand new stock AT&T device. The first thing I did was go into the setting about the phone and check for an OTA, Which there was one, I believe it was released for AT&T recently. After it download the phone restarts and I am greeted with a TeamWin screen. At this point I know something is wrong. I do not know much about root, so I assume this is some sort of root (excuse me if I sound like I have no idea what I am talking about because I don't). I instantly jumped on the internet to do some research. I believe I am stuck in a "boot loop" or am I, I am not sure. Anyway I cannot get the phone to do much of anything. Below are the screens I see:
And if I try to reboot it says this:
No OS installed cannot be good. The first step of every thread about putting the stock AT&T firmware on starts with getting the LG drivers (which I did) and then starting the phone in "download mode" by holding up on the volume when plugging the micro usb into the phone. This will not work for me no matter how many times I try. So that is where I am at. As I type this I have gotten a response from the ebay seller, he is really nice and understanding, says he thought it was reverted to stock, but he hasn't touched the phone in so long he must have just forgot to. Anyways he says I can send it back for a full refund. I would prefer not to, I would like to get it up and running, but if it is going to take up my whole weekend then no thanks. Any input you guys can give would be great. As you may be able to tell I am a bit frustrated.
