So today I got a LG notification about update so I downloaded it and pressed install, but I had already been rooted runing kitkat 4.4.2 LG G2 d802. so my phone got into recovery mode and there were no files I could install from LG and every time I pressed reboot system it would get me back into twrp recovery. I also tried deleting everything from my phone in hopes to get it bricked so that I could fix it , because LG flash tool doesnt work when I am in TWRP recovery and every time i hold volume up button and connect my phone to usb port ( so that I could get into download mode) it automaticly goes to TWRP recovery.
Also I dont have adb debuging enabled so I can not flash anything via adb sideload .
Can someone please help me to fix my phone.
Thank you.
Maybe you can enable adb from twrp recovery?
Also if you want to use OTA from stock rom phone shouldn't be rooted or have custom recovery
Only solution is that you flash stock firmware via download or whatever it's called.

i have the p500h (koodo). basically, i bricked my phone following this guide: [HOW-TO] Simplified Root + Recovery + Custom ROM
i turned on usb debugging, then installed gingerbreak 1.20 , then it rebooted and i installed the VM670NH_recovery.img using the flash recovery gui app. then i turned off the phone and tried to boot into recovery by holding down teh button sequence, i saw the LG logo, but then when i let go of the buttons it simply turns off. if i try to boot normally without going into recovery i just see the LG logo forever. any suggestions?
i have tried to fix it with lgdmp in emergency mode after i came across this post but my phone doesnt show up when i go to select port

Recovery.img that you flashed is for the optimus v...You have to use a p500 recovery.img ONLY.

would that be found in Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development or Optimus One, P500 Android Development?? basically i searched for p500h recovery img but i didnt find anything for p500h specifically. would this one be compatible
[RECOVERY] Unofficial TWRP 2.2.2.1 Full Touch recovery??
Im guessing the only way to unbrick my phone now would be to kdz flash a compatible recovery onto it?
i also tried to use lgdmp + emergency mode to flash a new recovery as suggested in this post but my phone doesnt show up in lgdmp. (and i have installed the lg drivers found here )
also i should mention that i cant see the lg modem drivers in my device manager even though my phone is plugged in and in emergency mode
try this if it works, remove the battery and while pressing vol down conect usb cable(have to w8 a little) to see if something happens or your phone is detected (also remove sd card)
Try this one...

But be really careful and never remove your battery in Emergency mode.
thanks guys, i installed the android sdk which included some drivers and all of the sudden my phone was showing up in lgdmp. so i was able to flash recovery on it. the phone worked for a while, but now its bootlooping again. i have tried wiping data/cache/dalvik and flashing different roms on it but it still bootlooping at the lg logos
Hi,
I decided to root and installed a custom recovery on my G920l.
The root went fine and I installed TWRP but once I tried to reboot into the recovery my phone has frozen and doesnt want to turn off.
I don't get what I did wrong and how to fix it or at least how to turn the phone off?
Thanks
I just figured out how to restart it holding power + volume down but I guess my TWRP doesnt work...
Try to Flash stock kernal for fix stuck on boot.
The phone is booting fine but I guess the recovery still doesnt work.
And TWRP keep failing to install the custom recovery ???

Hi guys, i have a g920f with 5.1.1.
Installed twrp 2.8.7.1 and i want to install a custom rom. To copy the rom on the phone, in the past on galaxy s4, i used to reboot in recovery twrp, then wipe everything and copy the rom file on the phone.
Now with twrp 2.8.7.1 and S6 when i reboot in recovery mode i'm not able to copy any file on the phone because i don't see the phone in windows explorer.
I think is twrp mtp problem, do you have the same issue? any workaround?
thanks in advance
Hi , I have rooted my xperia L and unlocked its bootloader. However when I tried to install a custom recovery, it keeps failing. I have tried both cwm and twrp. For cwm there is no official support so I tried using a custom but it couldn't read it .
For twrp , even though the device shows up in the twrp app , its unable to flash the recovery. it says :
flashing recovery was unsuccessful. Either you already have this recovery installed or another error has occurred. Would you like to attempt rebooting now?
My goal is to install a custom rom on my phone. Can anyone please tell me how to move formward from here ?
Thanks
You must be on the latest stock firmware.
I want you to go to this link " http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/help/how-to-recover-xperia-l-t3129724/page5 " .
And to replay number #46 and download the attached file.
Extract the the file in your computer and open the cmd in the folder by pressing shift+LMB and write the code:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
important:connect your phone to the computer in fastboot before pressing Enter, by holding the vol+ and connect it.
Now you can press entre you have now CWM recovery .
Boot to recovery and flash the rom you want.
Note: this recovery is for installing ROMs so if you want to use it with stock ROM so don't use it because it will stop the WiFi .
So just install it and directly install the ROM to have the wifi worked.
Don't forget to hit thanks
do I still have to use cwm rom manager? Because I tried that and it says it can't access the server.
So do I go directly to recovery by using adb reboot recovery ?
No there's no need.
After you done flashing your phone reboot it ,it will show you a led on Sony logo ,when you see this led keep pressing down button until it reboots to recovery .
I forgat to tell you that your phone must be powered of when fastboot
yeah no problem , I remembered to do that.. Got it. Thanks .
Quick question after flashing the rom , should I wipe the cache and delvvik AGAIN before flashing gapps ?
It depends on the ROM .
For example: CM 12 you mustn't flash gapps after flashing The rom, you must reboot to the ROM and then install a new recovery and then install the gapps.
In general I suggest to make factory reset before and after installing a ROM.
Hey everybody. A tough one (I think).
After flashing a new rom my LG G2 (D802) touch screen doesn't really work. Cannot do almost anything.
Besides, cannot enter Recovery mode and even when trying to reboot to download mode - it works but I could'nt push anything with LG Flash tool - It just does'nt work.
Tried to Root the phone through ADB, unsuccessfully.
ADB works fine - recognizes the phone and everything. I somehow succeeded to move it to USB debugging mode, but when trying to reboot to recovery I receive the image of the dead android with the red triangle.
How can I flash a new ROM through ADB?
Help needed.
Thanks a lot !!!
Hi I have tried so many times using the instructions all over the internet that says you have to use power volume up to get into recovery for flash mode but it never works just keeps loading into Android. Am I doing it wrong or is there a video or other way to get to stock recover. need to do this so I can install custom recovery and rom
Thanks
Hardware button recovery.

No you didnt do anything wrong. Some h/phone models do not respond to Vol+/- + Power. Out of the 11 device I owned my latest MTK powered phone do not respond to the hardware button.
But you did not describe your phone completely.
What SoC? Kirin, Exynos or MTK? (I assume it is MTK)
Are you rooted?
Do you want to access customs recovery or stock recovery?
If you are not rooted and on stock recovery, you can only access (for these problematic models) via "fastboot recovery"
command. It is not hard install adb driver on your PC, and your device driver. search for "fastboot adb" installer from the web. It is less than 1 Mb size and your USB cable from PC to device. End users cant do much when facing this problem.
If you are rooted and on customs recovery all you need to do is to install "Rebooter" from Playstore and click the rebooter from Android homescreen to get into TWRP recovery. (this doesnt work if you dont have root and on stock recovery).
I rooted , install customs recovery, by using fastboot and my device ROM flasher everything works well for me. And I enter TWRP via "Rebooter" and clear my dalvik and cache. Try it.
