Hi, I have a lg c800 mytouch q
Whenever the phone boots I see the LG emblum (normal) but then before it goes to boot android, the phone resets, goes back to the LG emblum again and runs some sort of recovery -- which clears EVERYTHING off the phone, then boots android.
I need to remove CWM from the bootstrap so that it gives up on recovery.
ADB works but the command to get it into fastboot is bypassed by whatever CWM is doing, it just does the above and never enters fastboot.
It restarts the phone but then never enters fastboot mode. Just boots like the new normal.
Please Help
the procedure to hard reset the phone doesn't work either.

Hi everyone
I have a desire S that gets stuck on the HTC logo in startup and won't boot.
When i try to get to the bootloader- it works, but if i try to do anything, it just gets stuck.
Trying to get to recovery- it turns off and vibrates 7 times.
I try to do a factory reset- the moment i press the power button it gets stuck and won't respond
Same for everything else.
Anyone knows what can i do with this?
The device is unrooted, but S-off.
Did you even look before you made this thread? The most recent thread was from a user with what sounds like the same problem as you. Here's the link:

Yes, i looked. a LOT.
This is not the same problem at all- he can get to recovery properly and do a factory reset, while i can't.
Well, perhaps you have done already, some things i 'll mention but..
Simpliest:
1. Remove battery and wait at least a minute before putting it back
( preferably switch the phone off- if you can )
2. Boot it again, connect to pc, check whether fastboot sees your device...
( you said you're not able to boot the system on it- so no ADB )
Try to reboot via fastboot issuing command
fastboot reboot
In case it didn't work
1.flash recovery again ( clockworkmod or 4ext )
and see what happens-when you'll have succeded,
try again to get to recovery from bootloader,
Optional:
when you get there , flash superuser zip
( If you'll still not be able to boot in to system , you may attempt to flash
some other rom- as .zip via recovery )
2. May also attempt to restore factory image on the phone ( RUU )
which proceeds from fastboot...
If all the above fails, there is an article you may be interested in reading,
that hopefully is not your case but....your call

Edit: if it is unrooted, it may even still have stock recovery -
nothing you may easily interact with, on the level given by custom...

Hello as the title says my phone wont boot into download mode. I got the phone and downgraded it and was able to root it. The phone was working perfectly all day, I plugged the phone in at night and went to sleep and i woke up and the phone was booted to recovery (Philz Touch 6) and when i try to reboot the phone it shows the LG screen then goes straight to recovery if i power off and hold the volume up button the phone still goes into recovery and trying "adb reboot download" wont work, it just hangs in terminal and never completes command.

Sounds like you may have to start from scratch and use flash tools to flash stock ROM, start all over again with rooting and whatever ROM you choose.

That would be great. If I could get into download mode.
Mods please delete this thread. Problems was solved. Phone was in warranty. Went to AT&T and got a new phone.
I scoured the forums, but have not been able to find out what I can do to solve my problem. So here it is.
I rooted my phone (to play around with some settings, what have you) and flashed TWRP recovery onto it. I got an error msg when booting up, so I decided to push an original recovery back onto the phone, because it wouldn't go to TWRP. I followed a guide (which I can't find now) to push back a stock version of recovery and it failed. My phone would boot normally just fine, but when I tried to go to recovery it would loop.
The OTA update came today, and dumbass me pressed continue (not thinking) and now I am stuck in a boot loop, and cannot get out of it.
Cannot get into recovery.
Cannot get into download mode.
Got any ideas?
Thanks
Same Problem
I have pretty much the same problem. Please help!
well without recovery/download mode working or the phone being in fastboot mode there really isn't much that can be done, you can always try to claim on warranty
boot loop
So, let me get this straight. If it failed when you tried to install the stock recovery, then you still have the TWRP recovery right?
I ran into a boot loop problem earlier when I tried upgrading TWRP. I just couldn't access my recovery so here is what I tried:
Code:
Turn your phone off.
Press volume down and power button until the LG logo comes on screen
Let go of both buttons
Hold the volume down and power buttons again until you see the "hard reset screen"
Press power once and then power again to confirm. The screen says it will reset your device but it will not as long as you have a custom recovery installed.
Your custom recovery should appear on screen.
Try the steps above and see if you can get into a recovery. Once you do maybe try resetting. Hope that helps.
I just installed twrp recovery and i went to reboot the system and it said no os installed but i rebooted any ways. now all i get to is the goggle screen and it stays there my computer recognizes it but i do not know as what and when i try to enter recovery it goes to a black screen but is also recognized as something can i do anything or have i completely bricked this phone.

Can you enter fastboot mode ? If you can, you'll be able to flash system images + stock recovery then you can start over by re-flashing TWRP.
