Do you know how to put it into download mode?
If you can still boot your D160 into download mode, Your phone is soft bricked.
You can unbrick it and restore it back to stock by flashing the latest stock kdz firmware with LGUP.

Get into download mode:
Turn off your phone, press and hold “Volume Up” button and plug in the USB cable from your computer to the phone

Download LG USB drivers
Download LG UP TOOL
Download LG UP DLL for LG D160
Download LG D160 Stock firmware

use LG UP to flash the kdz firmware onto LG D160 to refurbish the phone.
