There is a thread about how to get back to stock. Just try it. The easiest way is to recover stock firmware via LG Suite.

Okay, this is the entire story.
I rooted my LG G2 and planned to flash a cyanogenmod 11 on it. I managed to adb my zip file to my phone. However, when I tried to boot my phone into fastboot mode, and install the zip, it just stuck there. saying something like fastboot udc()... I can still power on the device and get back to the stock rom but that is obviously not what I want. So how can I get to recovery? And by the way, I managed to factory reset the phone earlier, (before it stuck in fastboot, but it just cleared the data and restarted). Does factory reset delete my cm files? Thanks
Why not just go back to stock and start over from there? Put your recovery and ROM on the phone while stock is running and then use a program like Flashify to flash TWRP or CWM. You know how to do the rest from there I'd imagine.

I have tried that... the ADB stopped working and no matter what recovery software i used, it always stuck on the fastboot...
So then you can't get back to the stock ROM? You said in your original post that you could. And if you can do that, you should be able to do the rest without using ADB at all.
Once it's stock and running, put it into MTP mode while plugged into your computer, copy the recovery, ROM, Gapps, etc onto your SD Card partition, then download Flashify from the Play Store and use it to flash your recovery of choice.
Once your recovery is flashed, you should be able to boot it into it when Flashify asks you to reboot. If that doesn't work, you can download Quick Boot from the Play Store to boot into recovery on your stock ROM.

OK. I think there are some misunderstandings. I tried to factory reset the phone from the settings. the phone went to fastboot and stuck there. I pressed the power button and it launched the LG Optimus UI. but that doesnt solve the problem. I still can't go to recovery mood. it would just stuck there forever until i press and hold the power button again. I know, it is kind of weird

yes i can enter download mode and i tried using lgflash tools to revert back to stock but it said files and phone model do not match even though i have the correct version, when i try to go into recovery it goes to fastboot mode. and when i restart phone it sits at lg bootlogo.
I everyone, i just aquired this awesome phone.
I rooted it with towel root and everything goes fine.
Then i installed autorec and chose to reboot in recovery.
All goes well and then in twrp i chose to reboot system.
Now after the LG logo i have a black screen with the notification led activated.
i can't go back to recovery neither
Looks like ur in a boot loop. If you cant go to recovery, I suggest you go to download mode and restore to stock rom via the KDZ method.

Can only vouch this post. Absolutely solid advice.
Keep pressing the power button till it powers completely off, then press the volume up and plug the phone into the computer. Then follow get back to stock guide.
My phone won't boot after installing the latest DU custom rom. I followed the steps here https://plus.google.com/+AlexCruz/posts/JJ5d9v6DArW - rooted and installed latest clockwork mod recovery, did a backup, and wiped everything, then installed the custom rom. But now it is stucked at the Dirty Unicorns boot screen.. Please help.
Some extra info: I was on 4.2.2 (802 international) before the flash
Edit: i can't even get to recovery now, by holding power and volume down buttons at LG logo. Is my phone dead?

Are you getting to the factory hard reset prompt? You have to go through that to get back into the recovery. Then you can just restore from Backup.

--This is copied and paste from another thread--
"You should be able to get to CWM recovery by using the hardware button (power and volume down held down, flash LG logo for a second, and then shuts off--only then you can turn it back on by holding power and volume down together until LG logo pops on, then let go of both buttons quickly, hold down both power and volume down again, and then quickly let go of the volume down button: a white factory reset screen should pop up and then you can push power button alone twice to enter CWM recovery).
If above does not work, you may need to KDZ back to stock using download mode (google LG G2 download mode) and USB cable (the one that comes with the phone as some USB cable won't work as they're charge only cable). You'll have to reroot with IOROOT25 and start over again."

I have no idea what fastboot or download mode is but your phone should be soft-bricked? If you can get into recovery or the factory reset screen you should be safe.
I wasn't able to get into the recovery at first but then I kept trying and trying and managed to get in by luck. Lol. I then wiped everything including Dalvik cache in Advanced and rebooted and was relieved to find it booted into Dirty Unicorns. I guess i was lucky.
Hey guys and gals, I decided to take my new PH-1 and root it after getting the latest OTA (this is an unlocked Sprint variant). I flashed the twrp for my build and there was an error, tried it again and the same error so I rebooted back into fastboot and it flashed but I didn't reboot into recovery. Flashed it again and booted into recovery but it was just a black screen as if the phone wasn't turned on. The closest I've gotten to recovery was the android laying down and it said "no command" but I forced a reboot at that point (I think I could have pressed up on the volume and pressed the power button to get to it from there but I haven't been able to get back to it).
I ended up flashing a modded boot image for root with Magisk 14.3 and that worked but I can't reboot my phone, it just goes to the blank screen like it isn't on and I can start it up again by holding the power button down for 15 sec. and it seems to function fine but I can't flash the OTA file to go back to complete stock or to go to the Oreo beta.
If anyone could give me some insight into this problem or a way of fixing it I would grateful, thank you.
