Ah thats not good,i suppose you dont have a Nandroid either? i suggest you do a nandroid backup right now, format data & cache and try rebooting. If it still doesnt work , your /System partition may be corrupt. best to go with the above mentioned post by klebengan which would return you back to stock.
Mind you, in both cases you would lose your data. so do a nandroid right now, atleast wou would have a chance to extract important data later once you are up and running again.
BTW, This is the wrong place for this thread, it should be in Q & A and i m pretty sure there would be similar or related posts

ok, thanks for the tip but I tried to even follow the Klebengan post but the main problem is that I am not even able to go to the download mode with the volume key up and Plugin in the usb cable.
I have the flash tool and the kdz file but as i said I am not able to go to the download mode so I am not able to use the LG flash tool also.
If somebody can help me with the steps of transfering the zip file in to the phone memory I can atleast try to install the custom rom once the phone goes on and starts than I may try to flash with the kdz file.
pls help

The only thing I can think to do is just restore your device to it's original factory settings/ROM as it will restore all the system files and hopefully restore your ability to use Bluetooth, then try rooting you device by using the one click root from towelroot.com, which hasn't caused me any problems what so ever.

Do i n just need to do factory reset or flash original rom?
And towleroot did'nt work for me?. Is' nt there a way where all my data does' nt get lost?

I would do both, first do a factory restore then flash the stock ROM and hopefully it will fix the problem. Towleroot worked for me, but I had to access the site and download the. apk file using my phone and to answer you last question when you flash a custom ROM all your data is erased, so you should backup your information before you, flash a ROM, or do a Factory restore it will make things easier.

Test
Hello.
I just settle the cm.-12. I'm testing it. and I've got no problem superuser. have to skip the 1st settings because you have no keyboard, you'll settings and activate and configure and arranged. I keep trying. -The Zoom cam remains. (As in CM-11) -Do not let me install anything because I advised that I have no space on any partition, is false, I have two gb in every hole, did you three wipes data / cache / davil -cache, and still have all the folders in the CM-11, so do not let me install anything, I'll format the card and make the wipes again.
-After Format and partition the sd I keep saying there is no space, internally or externally but recognizes both and the huge space there is both internal and external looks, not let me install apps, anyone know how to fix this?
My thanks to those who made this great work.

lte work !!

@kostoulhs Lollipop uses more storage because of the way ART operates.
As AnandTech explains in a post from July 1st:
"The big paradigm-shift that ART brings, is that instead of being a Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler, it now compiles application code Ahead-of-Time (AOT). The runtime goes from having to compile from bytecode to native code each time you run an application, to having it to do it only once, and any subsequent execution from that point forward is done from the existing compiled native code.
Of course, these native translations of the applications take up space, and this new methodology is something that has been made possible today only due to the vast increases in available storage space on today’s devices, a big shift from the early beginnings of Android devices."
Cheers

New Rom-Version
Hi,
is ist really necessary to install the new CWM and do we have to format the system?
I installed build 20141122 and have a huge battery drain. The settings show that the phone is always active. It is never in real Stand-By. In the CM 11 - Version for the I-8730 there was also a build that had this huge battery drain.
Am I the only one, who has it? I installed it correctly.
Thanks,
yFalcon

Low Storage possible fix
Hi @kostoulhs In reply to this message "I am trying to figure out why, all this weird thing with low storage happes, but only assumptions for now, any ideas?
Does this happen to everybody? "
I am on build 21/11/14 and I DID have the low storage message appear until I restored a backup of my apps using 'Helium' and rebooted, and since then i have not had this issue

Other bug (i don't know if happens only to me): The music doesn't play using ani player (google music or Apollo) but if i try to play a music from SoundHound, it works properly

5.1.1 Roms on D801 give no cell data??

Been using rooted stock roms for forever, but found myself lacking the need for wifi calling as of late, so I've been open to flashing something with more pizaz. I tried flashing both Dark Unicorn and Blisspop today, but neither would allow me to enabled cellular networks (it would toggle on, then back off by itself a few seconds later). I'm on T-mobile, I tried all three APN's that were pre-loaded. The notification drop-down would show it was connected to T-mobile, but it wouldn't show a data signal, and had an exclamation point over the cell signal. Anyone have suggestions on how to rectify this, or is this expected?

5.1.1 roms all have the ! signal next to it. so you saying that you cant connect to internet using data.?
they to download hybrid bootstacks, you know the procedure,
wipe all, install hybrid bootstacks, then go into main menu then reboot into recovery from recovery then, copy rom into phone flash rom and gapps.

When you say "copy rom into phone", it seems there's a chance I'd loose data on internal storage? :-/

i recommend balstagator twrp to prevent display damage cause of heat.http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development/twrp-twrp-2-8-0-0-kernel-f2fs-tools-t2898705
when in recovery yes delete all if you have stuff in your phone if they are pics just move them to pc, if those are apps use titanium paid app that will back up, app and data like whats app all conversations. if its only like pics videos moved them to pc, if apps using the free version of titanium back up ypu cant restore batches, musst must do one installation at a time..
its always better to install a fresh installation that means wipe all.
to be honest i dont do nandroid that is what is called in twrp back up,i think i did once and it didnt worked, it does work if i want to mess with rom and if it fails or i get problem doinga restore brings back the way it was just like a restore point. but am not really sure if you wipe all and do a nandroid restore it would bring back the rom, as am typing i did one am trying a ifferent rom.. ill see if it works..
ok i tried 2 roms 1 stock custom, and cm13 so i just restore my nandroid and it worked. ive selected all in back up. wipe all then copy back the twrp back up and restore it. it works ...
ok i got some folders missing like dcim.well most just copy important folders like music videos and pics to pc then once you restore it copy them back.
