It takes a long time, i had this issue before, just enter recovery manually Volume Down + Power at LG Logo release and press again.
Then flash CM or something it will take a long time but it will fix it.

hey thanks for the reply.
i cannot access recovery at all right now... ill keep trying..

Any other thoughts?

ive been able to get back into recovery.
timing is very important for this as i thought there was something wrong, but holding down+power from the off state, see lg logo, immediately release buttons, then hold power key gets you to the factory reset screen. push power to reset, and then it boots into twrp recovery...

stuck in twrp
i accidently wiped everything in twrp. now cant boot into android, nor can install a zip. please advise how to copy zip files to internal sd card to install. please advise fast

Use system recovery in the LG support tool, before connecting the phone to PC turn off completly the volume up + power until U rich download mode. The plug and after PC installs phone, find the Recovery option.

Thanks to your post, I knew I should really give TWRP a chance to restore (which wipes system) and after like 15 minutes, it finished wiping system and moved on.
Thanks for sharing this info.

[Q] Device bootloops after messed up partition

I once tried to use geno's partition resize, and after a reboot, it cannot boot into system anymore. Stuck at the huawei logo.
Since I'm quite familiar with linux, I tried this solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971266
However, my linux installation didn't show any drives when it's in pink screen mode, so I'm pretty much stuck here.
In Windows 8 it did show two HUAWEI Technologies device (no drivers though) in pink screen mode.
I can't access recovery mode either, holding power + vol up only does normal boot for some strange reason. Anyone can help me out here?

try put official GB dload file on sd card, then put sd card in phone press power up+power down+power...
maybe it'll help you.
I tried that too, and it still bootloops. Not much luck.
Go to recovery and wipe everything. Then, reboot recovery, and then try partitioning again.
I can't get into recovery by pressing power + vol up. It just does normal boot (which bootloops).
If there would be any other way to get into recovery (such as via ADB or update.app) would be highly appreciated.

Yes, you can boot into recovery via adb:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
But, you cannot use that until your phone is booted up.
If that doesn't work, you can follow these instructions to hard reset your phone:
http://www.hard-reset.com/huawei-u8800-ideos-x5-hard-reset.html
Good Luck.
I can't get it to do the hard reset either. It just boots normally, aside from the bootloop.
I believe I need to fix the partition first before I try to reinstall stock. I hear that stock doesn't work with custom partitions. Which is why I'd prefer to at least get some access to the device via USB in order to fix it.
Ah well. It's a failing device anyway. Even before the brick the camera doesn't work anymore, regardless of which ROM I choose. Maybe it's time to move on for me.

Well, I tried this too (in fact I stated it in the first post) but pink screen mode isn't showing any device (I typed in "dmesg" in the Linux Terminal, none is found).
I appreciate your help, though. If I can solve the detection problem, I should be able to recover my phone using this method. I'd be happy to share some logs if it helps.
I got your back buddy

Hey, this is my first post well here it goes
Step 1 :- Format the sd card and put dload folder in it ( you'll get it from the official rom zip file)
Step 2 :- press and hold vol+ & vol- and then power button, it'll start upgrading
Step 3 :- now here is the tricky part!!! i was stuck here too and gone half mad well, let it reboot it will format cache etc and then bootloops, now turn off the device and then turn on pressing vol+ and power button, or u can try by pressing home, vol+ and power button, u'll b in recovery mode i.e in official rom builtin i guess.
Step 4 :- once in recovery, select reset factory default and clear partition cache, and then reboot!!!! Voila u will b able to finally boot successfully...
Now listen very carefully, u got only one chance here, cause if u reboot ur device again then bootloops will start again so in the first go, root the device by superoneclick and then install recovery i guess u knw all that and then u will be able to return to stock rom by flashing... once u've installed CWM then u r good to go bootloop wont effect ya SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH THOUGH

What did you do before this? You need to give more details.
OK, I played me a little in the Hidden menu around, anything with factory reset test or so, since I can not get into download mode, although I get to TWRP, rom can flash and make backups back, but I can not start the system, it always comes short the LG logo and then it starts automatically in the TWRP, I can not do more, charging works
I hope you understand me,mei english is very bad!

sorry for the double post, now nothing works well
Have you tried to get into download mode? It's "vol up + power".
Sent from my LG-D802 using Tapatalk
Yep,but I can not get into download mode,only in Recovery(TWRP)
I make a Factory Reset Test in the Hidden Menu,since I can not do anything
vol up + power = LG BootLogo for a few seconds and then it boots into TWRP
I can flash ROMs and restore backups, but instead of starting to Android, it starts in TWRP
it is very strange

OK now clearly explain step by step what you did before all this happened.
e.g.
1. rooted phone
2. changed XXXX Settings
3. flashed XXX ROM/KERNEL
etc.
Ok,
i Have a LG G2 International Version D802.Stockrom (80210B)
I rooted the Phone and have Twrp installed,this works very well,i flash roms,make Backups since 3 Weeks,no Problems.
OK, yesterday I watched a bit and tried some things in the Hidden menu, the last thing I know I've got something pressed factory reset test
since then booted the phone does not except directly into the TWRP, I can turn it off and when I want to load it comes the Lg logo and remains,
Unfortunately I can not enter the download mode
in TWRP I can see that something needs to be on it but, Cache: 16MB, Data: 355MB, System1910MB, etc. ..
times can you please see if there is the menu? But press nothing
So as I said, I can charge the phone in the TWRP, turn on, turn off, unfortunately, is not more.
I hope you understand my bad English!

Download mode is NOT vol up + power. To enter download mode:
1. Connect a USB cable to computer or wall charger.
2. With the phone off, connect the usb cable to the phone while holding vol up.
It senses the power on the USB cable, and combined with the vol up being held it boots into download mode.
With that said, I would say Factory Reset Test tripped a setting to make recovery the default boot. I'm sure there's a way to undo that without flashing stock firmware in download mode... lets find it.

[Q] LG G2 bootloop, No recovery mode, only download mode

Hi guys, (LG G2, Rooted, had twrp but now its vanished?!)
I managed to get my LG G2 into a bootloop. I was replacing bootanimations and rebooting and testing them out. I finally tried this 1080p boot animation that looked sweet. Once the device rebooted it would show half the boot animation and then reboot. I had twrp installed but now every time i try to access it it just ignores the hotkeys as if it doesn't exist anymore. I can only get into download mode if a usb is plugged in.
All i need to do is flash TWRP again so i can flash the stock bootanimation back. I do not want to do a fresh install as I have many important files (i know i should have backed them up). I have tried to access my phone via adb using windows commandline tool whilst in download mode. however, adb doesn't find my device (I was going to attempt to push the stock animation back).
Please help me guys i need my phone to be working by monday as i have work! thanks in advance

1. If you connect your phone to PC, what happens?
2. I also had trouble accessing TWRP, so I did the "Factory reset" button combo (Don't remember what it was) and when I slided to confirm, twrp booted. From there I think you have adb and can fix everything.
To get to TWRP, hold the power button until the phone turns completely off, then turn on the phone while holding the power and volume down buttons, then when the LG logo pops up, let go and re-press those buttons. When prompted for a factory reset, press the power button. Works every time for me.
Alone i used lg flashtoolnow,its ok. I didnt click factory reset i assumed it would delete everything? With lgflash i have restored system and everything is how i left it.

First off, you'll need to make sure your phone isn't plugged in or it won't work - I'm afraid if you can't enter recovery you'll have to go back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476

Try to flash the Kitkat baseband or if you are fully stock then i suggest you to flash the KDZ to go back to full stock(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476)
If you still have important data like pictures or what then do normal flash. Use the Android version you also had as stock and use that as KDZ. If you are not stock then can you reach TWRP?
and what did you do before that causes the black screen?
Stuck with the LG logo. Nothing happens in download mode
Hi All, not sure if this has been answered prior. This is what happen, I wanted to flash SOKP so I backup my phone and saved to PC using Titanium. I have TWRP installed.
Boot Into Recovery Mode and Wipe Data,System,Cache,Dalvik
I restart so I can flash the SOKP Rom and all I see on my phone is the LG logo. I try to restart using the Power and Up button, but it just sits in the download mode saying "Firmware Update" with no movement or action.
The phone is unable to turn off now. This is my first go at Flashing a Rom. Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

LG G2 802 Soft Bricked

Hello.
I have an LG G2 802 that i managed to royally screw up last night, I was about to install the new firmware update for my phone, completely forgetting that i had a custom rom installed on it. After the firmware update was finished downloading, the phone rebooted into TWRP and would not boot normally after that, could not boot into the previous custom rom i had installed... I decided to wipe all the data, and try to use an old backup i had laying on the internal storage, got to it, wiped all data and started recovering the old backup. But the revovery wasn't working properly and it gave me an error, after fiddling around with TWRP a little more, i went into wipe -> advanced wipe -> and wiped everything, because i had an idea that i could just force a new rom over by ADB from my PC, and this all resulted in that I have no operating system, the phone boots into TWRP all the time, I've tried to hard reset it, but it just boots into TWRP whatever i do
Please help
Just flash a new KDZ over it. And next time check XDA if someone had the same problem as you and you will find the solution.
I've done a quick search about flashing a new kdz, and they involve getting into download mode, I can't access download mode, it just sends me to TWRP no matter what i do

Ok Hold the power button until the phone flashes twice and then let go off the power button. When it's off, hold volume up and then connect it to USB simultaneously.
I just tried doing that, held the power off button until the LG logo flashed twice, the phone turned off, and then i held volume up button, LG logo appeared and then it just went straight into TWRP

For those who have similar issues, I did the below steps:
1. While connected to computer in CWM recovery, install the drivers via PdaNet (these replace any original LG drivers)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1983470
2. Connect to phone via ADB while still connected in CWM recovery (see below ADB download if you didn't already have it or forgot where it was)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2317790
3. While connected via ADB you can use the same method as in the below thread (use the first one).

Tried it, it turns off, then the notification light at the top of the phone (beside the front camera) blinks 8 times if i constantly hold the volume up and power button, as soon as i release power button and volume up, the phone boots with the LG logo and then goes into TWRP.

When the notification LED starts to blink, let go of both buttons for a split second and hold them back again. Make sure USB is connected. Since you have TWRP working, Download should also be available.

The problem is that you have to have the phone off to even attempt to get in to download mode.

If i try to power off the phone WITH the usb cable connected to it, it just reboots automatically, so i cannot power off the phone without it rebooting all by itself, and then going into TWRP.
I tried to hold volume up and power while my phone was in TWRP and it rebooted, LG logo came up and then the red notification light started blinking, then i tried to do what you told me to, quickly release volume up and power button, while the LED was blinking, but nothing happened, other than the phone just rebooting, and then the LED started blinking red again, this just looped over and over again...
Turn it off, hold volume up and connect USB cable. Does it go to download mode?

I decided to wipe all the data, and try to use an old backup i had laying on the internal storage, got to it, wiped all data and started recovering the old backup. But the revovery wasn't working properly and it gave me an error, after fiddling around with TWRP a little more, i went into wipe -> advanced wipe -> and wiped everything, because i had an idea that i could just force a new rom over by ADB from my PC, and this all resulted in that I have no operating system, the phone boots into TWRP all the time, I've tried to hard reset it, but it just boots into TWRP whatever i do
Please help

I had the same problem, stuck on logo lg , when i tried to go to download mode, i got stuck in the first step of it (i can't see the step with firmware update etc...) and when i tried to make a factory hard reset, it goes on the recovery mod.
After seeing many forums since 3-4 days, i tried to flash the kitkat kernel, so i used the adb sideload ---> so connected on recovery mod, then make install from sideload, then on your command (on windows) type adb sideload thenameofthekernel /sdcard/ and normally the recovery should install himself the kernel and you can reboot your phone
I still have an issue, can't access on download mode but i can use the phone as before, so if anyone can help, i listen you ^^

Hold down the power button till the it turns off and keep it held down the LG logo will flash up again then go off after that release it and wait a few seconds making sure the phone does not boot up again. Then hold down the volume up button and with the usb connected to the computer plug the USB into the phone this should then put it into download mode.
Why don't you sideload a rom in twrp recovery via adb?

I've already tried to get into download mode, and it doesn't let me, but now it wont even let me into TWRP, it's stuck at the LG logo, the notification light at the top is blinking in all different colors.
As i said, no download mode, now no TWRP...

Hi all.
Please help me.
I bought a new LG G2 D802 32 GB.
I made all upadtes then rooted with ioroot25 and applied D802_AutoRec.apk.
I forgot to put new ROM.zip in internal memmory.
I did full wipe (Dalvik, Cache, System, Data) and after that phone was stuck at lg logo.
I managed to flash new rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 used Europe OPEN KitKat D80220D_00.kdz
All went ok but after restart i have "Enter PIN/password to decrypt" and cant`t do anything.
I cant`t even enter recovery/hard reset tryed - "When the LG logo is displayed, let go of the power button, keep pressing the volume down key and then press once more the power button." - I manged to enter recovery earlier
Phone is still rooted.

Didnt make any difference to mine It turns on I try all different key combinations to get into recovery but its as if its not there. When my phone loads up I get Enter PIN/password to decrpyt and after about 3-5 mins it starts clicking. I have restored it back to stock but the decryption screen is always there.....Is my phone knackered?
Cheers.
THX XxZombiePikachu !!!
I managed to enter recovery. "hold the volume down+up don't touch power"
Did a factory reset and no more Enter PIN/password to decryp.

I want to thank Alexxxx for the info on entering recovery mode.
I had encrypted my other G2 cuz I never used it but wanted to use it so I turned it on
and behold, it wanted password that I forgot. I live nowhere near a Sprint store so I started
using internet.
The message from Alexxxx saved the day.
Thanks Alexxxx and XDA Forum

Thanks alot i figuried it out
same problem
Hi guys,
I have the same exact problem, restored my rom with LG Flash tool 2014, but now it's always asking me this pin/password. And I tried all combinations with volume up/down and it's impossible to go in recovery, what can I do? My LG G2 is a european model 32 GB
this is the screen I'm always getting
Same Problem Here
Hi,
I'm having the same problem.
I have an LG D802. I was on CloudyG3 with TWRP recovery. While using the phone, I noticed a yellow tinge in the right side of the LCD. So I figured, I'll show it to the service center and get the issue sorted out. Obviously, I couldn't take it there rooted and on a custom ROM as they would annul my warranty otherwise. So I decided to unroot it using the LG tools. (I have done this before too. But I did not face any such problem back then).
This time, it is taking me to the screen and asking me to enter a pin/password to decrypt.
I tried booting into recovery using the old method (volume_down + power and LG logo flashes, release and press power again, then 3 times power) and also tried another method as recommended by someone above (volume_down + power till LG logo appears and then release power and press volume_up). None of them work now. In the first method, the screen just goes blank for a few seconds and the phone reboots while in the second method, the phone boots into safe mode.
Kindly advise on what to do. I am stuck and my warranty expires on the 18th of November.
Problem Solved
Earlier when I was using the Flash.Tool.1.0.54, it wouldn't ask for region and language in the pop-up. It would just open the LG Mobile Support Tool and then I manually selected the Start Upgrade button to flash the phone. The problem with this was that on boot it would ask for pin/password. I couldn't even boot into the stock recovery for some reason.
Then I used the LG Flash tool 2014: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470207
There was a region and language pop up and it proceeded to install the firmware.
But on boot, it still asked for the pin/password. So I tried to boot into recovery and it worked this time! Pressed the power button 3 times and it wiped my phone.
On reboot, the phone worked perfectly without asking for the pin/password. But, now it was reading my internal storage as only 16GB. I followed the directions in the link provided by @Alexxxx to repartition the internal storage in my phone. Here is the link once again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470207
It worked perfectly for me.

Sorry, that was a typo.
*So I tried to boot into recovery and it worked this time! Pressed the power button 3 times and it wiped my phone.
What I meant is, that I tried booting into recovery. from there it asked me to press the power button three times to wipe my phone.
Sorry for the late reply.
