Can't boot into recovery - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I installed cwm recovery for the att LG g2 using rom manager. When I try to boot into recovery using the app it reboots my phone and shows a screen with an android and red exclamation mark. It also says no command. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

I'm getting the same problem. Anyone know a fix?

1.Turn off completely.
2.Hold power and volume down for half a second after seeing the LG logo.
3.Lift your fingers, then immediately hold power and vol down again until you see factory reset.
4. Press power,power and if you installed correctly, you'll see CWM.

Fast boot erase all your partitions, then fast boot the boot loader and then fast boot the factory image.
So i need to going to stock using the nexus 7 tool kit ??

I had a similar issue like yours earlier.. I had to pop the back off my nexus and disconnect the battery. I rebooted into recovery and fixed the problem there by using the all in one tool kit through my pc.
I had the same exact issue less than a week ago....all I had to do was hold all 3 buttons (power, volume up and down) till screen goes blank...then quickly let go and hold those same 3 buttons down and poof...your back in fast boot mode....there you can flash back to the Google stock IMG....it worked for me after hours of trying to figure out how to get off that Google screen....lemme know how it works for ya.

Boot into twrp

Hey guys
My question is how can I boot into recovery without factory reset.???
Because when.I do the button combo power and vol down to enter,
It shows push 3 times power to factory reset and enter then recovery....
I am afraid of pushing 3 tomes power to enter recovery because of the note factory reset....
Are there any other possibilities to enter recovery,.????

Twrp and rom manager apps both have a boot to recovery feature. There are other quick boot apps as well

Download power toggles, in there is a power button that allows you to enter recovey and bootloader

Don't worry, it doesn't wipe anything or do an actual factory reset. I think TWRP did something to bypass that because you'll find that after the 2nd press of the power button, you go straight to recovery without losing anything. As another option, similar to a post above, you can also install this from the Play Store and it will give you an option to boot directly to recovery: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot&hl=en

CWM Hardware Buttons on Boot

I can access CWM through the Rebooter app but cannot access it via the Vol Pwr+ combo on boot. I have probably tried 50 times. The phone ends up turning off every time. Is it possible that CWM did not install correctly? Should I flash the zip version of CWM to see if this fixes the problem? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

So what combo did you use? Pwr+vol down, on lg splash screen release and press again those, and in the reset screen press power twice. It'll boot into recovery instead of reseting.

HELP! Bricked?! Stuck on LG boot screen!

PLEASE help, I'm panicking right now. I have had my LG G2 phone rooted for a while but recently I decided to flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481196 as my custom rom. I've never done this before and I thought I got through the adb stuff and loki...etc. I was in TWRP and told it to install Buckeye V3.zip and when it finished, it said successful (I did note that it said "unable to mount /system") but I clicked reboot and now it just shows the LG screen and it stays there! I get a blue & green flashing notification light at the same time. I am trying to hold power and up buttons... power and down buttons...etc and nothing is happening other than restarting and going back to the LG screen!
Please help!
Press and hold power button for sometime. Ur phone will turn off and will restart automatically. While restarting press volume down button and power key so that it will boot to recovery.

OMG ok I just got back into TWRP and now I'm afraid to reboot again. What can I do now that i'm in??? Should I try installing Buckeye again or choose wipe? No idea what to do next to get out of this situation.
If u have any other custom rom in ur phone, u Can flash it. Or u can side load a custom rom via adb or u can boot to download mode and flash stock rom if u have the necessary files

Just make sure the Rom you're flashing matches the model of your G2.

If you can access TWRP recovery, you can shutdown your phone by going Reboot > Power Off.
Yes but you dont understand.the guidlines are very spacific that after all the fastboot flashing and final step says that after all flashing it says okay and to immediately power down either by removing battery or in my case with a rogers lg g2 where baterry removal is not an option it says type last command fastboot reboot and hold power while the phone powers down.but it will not power down while still plugged into usb port.well that cant happen as it loops itself.and same thing while i do button combo to get into twrp.i can do all the above no problem if the usb cord is not attached only when i unplug the usb it allows me to do combo and get recovery.i just cant get passed that point where all flashes okay and power down while still plugged in.omg this is frustrating.im gonna throw this damn phone out the window lol
