Did you root your phone? Did you installed android 2.1 with fastboot enabled? If not check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224747

Yes you can.First you have to instal 2.1 with fastboot enabled. Do it like in that thread via kdz. Then via fastboot you have to flash cmw v6.
Good luck :good:

Can your phone boot up properly?If you are turning on and see only grey screen- that is normal.That is fastboot mode. Plug usb and flash recovery via cmd like in that thread. If your phone shows something else then turn of your phone. When its turned off push power and camera button until you see grey screen(fastboot)

Be sure to push Power+Camera keys very hard! Some times the button needs abit of a push

Can't install CWM recovery

Hello, I've been trying to install CWM recovery, I have been able to do so previously, but recently I've gone back to stock 2.2, to get the 2.2 kernel, and since then nothing works. I've replace the recovery.img in the system/bin manually through a file manager, through adb too, but when I reboot to recovery, its still the default one. Any help is appreciated.
You should be installing recovery.img through the "pink recovery screen". Are you doing that? Make sure you're installing CWM 5.0.2.6. The instructions in that thread are great (follow the "new install" method).
recovery.img should be in "/cust_backup/image/" directory..
Yeah, worked now. My bad for not reading the instructions.

I guess you install 528 if so you need to root it and gain pinkscreen back. There are tutorials in general section.

try this:

and would you plz tell me what is the version of your recovery?
mine is "3e", it,s quiet old and there is no enough options.
I have to be sure everything in my phone is normal as others.
r.e
that's very easy to change recovery.only use root explore,copy the new recovery.img to /.cust_backup/image/ folder,and cover it.of course you have root it before!

LG E610 help me please!

Hi imk trying to root my e610..nothing works,do i need to need to unlock the bootloader and put on custom firmware?...if so can somebody please show me how to do it..if been trying to root the s..o..b for days and getting nowhere fast...thanks...if been looking..would i be better just flashing it and use a pre rooted firmware?..if so how and where do i get one..
4.1.2 pre-rooted. Flash any one using kdz updater.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275969
1. Install supersu.
2. Install ROM manager, select e610 as your device and flash cwm (or twrp) recovery.
Here's a guide to do the same. (use the rom from the first link, since the link to the rom is broken in the second link)

Use 'gandalf exploit'.
If it crashes the first time, restart the app and try again.
After root:
To get recovery, install ROM manager. Cwm Recovery can be flashed directly from it.

will this work on v20c for e612 too? do you know any tool that can be able to root e612 v20 rom?

if I remember correctly that means your recovery did not flash correctly so I recommend using either flashify or freegee from playstore and retrying
It is actually the stock recovery. Try again flashing TWRP or CWM

Thanks a lot! I followed that guide, and afterwards I was no longer even able to get into recovery/download mode....so I though I was even worse trouble....since one the the instructions was to erase the LAF file and flash it again with a downloaded LAF image, I decided to go to the link with all the files you provided and flash each of them....rebooted, and the phone was able to get into recovery mode again...Then I pushed the file for my phone ( http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/VS980/Stock_Firmware) using Uptest (R&D Tool), rebooted and the phone worked.

Stuck in recovery after OTA but stupidly formatted SD card...need help please!

Hi all,
I have an LG D802, was running standard ROM just rooted and with PhilZ recovery. Well I was silly and tried an OTA update, and got stuck at recovery...unfortunately I panicked, cleared everything and tried to flash another ROM but I'm still stuck at recovery.
I tried the instructions in the thread about being stuck after an OTA update but as I;ve formatted the sd partition it didn't work.
I want to go back to stock, I just have no idea how....I have ADB access though if that helps! I'm not really experienced in this kind of thing so please dumb it down for me!
Any help much appreciated!

can you get into download mode either try the adb reboot download mode or turn phone entirely off and hold volume up(only volume up) and plug it into the pc usb, if you can use the back to stock guide to get your phone working again

Yes trued flashing a custom ROM, however in my haste to try and stop the OTA forcing me to recovery I may have formatted some partitions I shouldnt have.
Can I restore everything by downloading the kdz with all the correct IMG files in, converting to a flash able zip (saw a guide on here) and trying that?

Can't root G2 802 Stock 5.0.2 V30B

Hello,
I have an old, fully working G2 and try to install root (and then TWRP) before giving it to my daughter.
My PC has PC Suite installed, recognizes G2 when connected, and all entries in Device Manager looks OK.
All tools that I found on the network start the rooting process, push the files, succeed to enter download mode and then get stuck at "firmware download mode" - it never moves from 0%. The phone can be power-cycled to reboot to the OS, and happily works ever after (unrooted).
Any help will be appreciated,
Try Kingroot...
Hi I had similar issue with g2 802...couldn't get it to go into download mode when connected to PC...
Ended up using Kingroot to root device...
and...
autorec twrp for kitkat...to install TWRP
Hope this helps

I can enter the download mode without problem, and OS is not KitKat. I tried StompRoot - but if refused to root the phone, wrote "Phone is patched, sorry". Will try Kingroot tonight.
Srk tool....try this excellent program/software....
Hi again....
Okay please try the above tool....
All the details are on the web page....
I tried this tool it certainly had a good go at rooting my phone
and maybe this helped the Kingroot program to work
Hope the works if Kingroot doesn't work either....
If you do manage to root your phone I recommend resurrection remix ROM
Its fast and very well supported....

Currently I am trying to install TWRP.
When I try to enter recovery mode I get "fastboot mode started" instead. Tried
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.6.3.2-g2rog.img
and from adb shell:
Code:
su
dd if=/storage/emulated/0/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
doesn't work
I have G2 802, international, but can't find twrp image for this model on TWRP site,so I tried image for Rogers ...
Tried also TWRP manager app ...
autorec d802...lollipop ........on playstore.....
Okay......please try installing Twrp....by using AUTOREC D802 lollipop....

In order to flash TWRP with AutoRec, do I need a specific bootstack?
I have a D802 and I'm currently on lastest Lollipop firmware, and I haven't root it.
I was on stock lollipop.

Tried Autorec - does nothing. When I click on the "candy" that should initiate recovery install - nothing happens.
I tried to install using TWRP manager app, and using adb shell commands - I get error messages (something about critical error, and prompt to enter download mode or reboot) when entering recovery mode. Phone itself continues to be fully functional (and rooted), just without recovery mode.

yes for aosp'd and cm's you need hybrid to boot into system. unless is resurrection remix i think that uses JB bootstacks something like that. be sure to flash hybrid and then reboot the recovery to take efeect. so reboot into recovery from recovery not to system then flash rom.
