LG has no RMA, they got a repair service. Just send it to them, they are the manifacture of the phone, even though you heard terrible stories. And a new 16gb model costs 350$, 32 gb around 400$. I hope the owner isn't that mad about it

A nexus 5 costs the same price as a nexus 5.

I meant the LG repairing with RMA - I'm not really familiar with the word "RMA" ..thought it means something like "Sending the product to a company and get it repaired" or whatever.
I already send LG an email.
So can we be friends again?
I found a used but in perfect state 32gb nexus 5 in black. Showed it my girlfriend (it's her phone) "but I want my white nexus" .... well .. no used phone found.

Then buy a new phone? Or wait for the repair

OK. Only google RMA. Its a "return to manufacturer" process that involves returning a faulty product and getting it replaced under warranty.
You can send a phone to LG to repair.

It's eMMC. If you wanted to retrieve your data it'll probably cost you more than buying an entire new phone (or multiple in some cases). Honestly, if you have something important, don't keep it solely on your phone as it's the most stupid place to put it. Make a backup of your important data, or don't keep it on it in the first place.
That means it's bricked beyond what anyone except LG can do. Send it in for repair/replacement. Nothing else you can try.
When 9008 shows up as a device you can't do anything. Send it in for repair.
Send it for repair. End of thread

The ROM he flashed had a boot.img in it, I didn't bother looking into the image but I bet it overwrote something crucial. Lol. Yeah, not much anyone except LG can do.
I know how it works, but it will not work. We need source code of the bootloader and other script tools from qualcomm to compile a flash pogrammer hex or mbn and a bootloader image which can run from the memory of the phone. We will never get any of these files.
Dont waste your time about that thing. I wasted planty of my time and still wasting more... Just send your phone to LG and pay the repair cost or to google and pay the cost of a new phone if it is from google.

Here's the deal. RMA to Google is for manufacturing defects ONLY. When you RMA, Google freeze the cost of the phone in your account. When they find out its not a defect, they will take that money. Sending a phone to Google, knowing its your fault, hoping to get it replaced for free is fraud.
Sending to LG shows you are willing to pay for the repair. LG will repair manufacturing defect for free. They should charge you to repair user error. Sending a phone to LG, knowing its your fault, hoping to get it repaired for free is fraud.
Here is my advice. Send it to LG. Tell them what you did. Ask them for a price to repair.
