Hello,
I got my hands on a phone from a friend of mine who played with it inexpertly to try to fix it. Honestly, I'm not very wise about it, I'm just an occasional enthusiast. Would you be so kind and help me with the correct procedure if there is one?
I went through a lot of articles yesterday and today I'm just confused about it.

The phone is an LG G8s ThinQ
information from the LGROM website according to the IMEI code:
IMEI 356070105787710
MSN 003CQSF0360886
Model LG G8S ThinQ LMG810EAW
Region IBR
Suffix AIBROP
Latest version G810EAW40A_00

The phone is stuck in a boot loop. After displaying LG G8s Thinq, powered by android, it restarts over and over.

Download mode does not work - when trying to start it, a "small blue progress bar" appears (like when download mode starts) but then it restarts

EDL mode - the Qfil program probably sees it, but I am not able to find the necessary files, and I am probably not too sure about the procedure

LGUP - nothing worked for me at all, the program immediately shows me the information "No earphones are connected. Please connect an earphone" at the beginning and even the advice on how to solve it did not work. The phone is probably not visible.

As for the state in which the phone was stuck, then I am afraid that nothing was allowed that should have been allowed (USB debugging - NO and the Google account was not deleted, no backup was made)

Is there a chance of getting it working or should I throw the phone at a friend's head? Smile

Thank you very much in advance

ps: I apologize for the English for the sake of speed, I used Google Translate.

Try the attached firehose with this procedure https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-31475.html
See if the partition table is displayed

Partition table is not displayed.
I made some pictures how I used it. Because there are some differences between my and your procedure.
I mean firehose settings - device type - UFS (I used )
and filehose file format is elf extension not mbn
I think I did everything right.
I attach pictures
