Hello,
I Have a German LG G2 D802 from Vodafone.
It is Rooted and any rooted app works fine,
the first thing i realized is that i got no questions from SU for Root Access from any app but they are defenetly have them.
Then i tryed to flash a boot animation from TWRP, because i have a Vodafone boot animation.
Its flashing something but nothing changes, still the VF animation.
Today i tryed flashing the Multiwindow, but its the same.
What is wrong with my G2?
Update:
Flashed CWM With Flashify, now i think i have 2 recoverys.
After that i tryed istalling twrp With Loki via ADB, still nothing work.
now i have CWM and if i flash a file it says that i have to lokify the boot???
what the hell should i do?
Please help me

Hi
A while ago i flashed leaked android 4.3 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368401
and suddenly i realized that i have lost root access. I can't get into recovery (TWRP)
What should I do? Please help!
why do you think that you wouldnt lose root after flashing stock? and you didnt lose your recovery, it got replaced by stock recovery, as always when you flash stock. you need to flash your custom recovery of choice via fastboot, then flash the su binaries via your newly reflashed custom recovery. thats all. a simple search would have found you the answer, because mamy people get stuck there after every single new android version. to prevent this from happening, do some research before flashing anything.

TWRP is still there because when small update comes (3.9 MB) is doesn't install. Instead it reboots into TWRP
Sadly, I installed the Kitkat ota, through a misclick. I am on the Verizon LgG2. So the problem isn't that I'm stuck on the logo after the ota, it is that after successfully rooting, flashing twrp recovery and creating a backup with which I can get out of this loop easily, I cannot get a rom to work. Every time, and of four roms I have tried I am stuck in a bootloop. I am not new to doing this sort of thing and have done it perfectly without troubles before the ota, but now I can get no roms to boot correctly, and I am thus stuck on the logo. I have tried AutoRec, but to no avail, maybe because I had applied twrp before using AutoRec. Nevertheless, is anyone else having this issue or has anyone corrected the problem when they had it? I'd love to get a rom going!!
Verizon LG G2
Rooted
Installed TWRP
Without thinking (doink) tried to install the latest OTA.
OTA failed.
Now I cannot reboot into TWRP.
Installed ClockwordMOD and installed its own custom recovery. Still won't boot into any custom recovery.
Phone works fine other than that.
How can I get back into custom reccovery?
Note: When I turn phone off and try to reboot into custom recovery it takes me to the "reset" screen.. and then IT RESETS the phone.
When I try to boot into recovery from Clockwork or TWRP app it gives me the android robot with the open tummy and red triangle.

The OTA update installed the KitKat bootloader, which hasn't been hacked for custom recovery yet.
Use this to downgrade the only the bootloader and install custom recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715496
You have to root frist. You can use IORoot25 to root the KitKat rom that you have now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48709232

Ok.
The KITKAT rom didn't install properly..
Phone says 4.2.2
Super user and apps that need root to work are working properly. Looks like the bootloader is the only thing that got hit.

Oh. Not sure if AutoRec works if you are still on 4.2.2. Sorry bout that.
If it doesn't work, you can always just manually flash the complete firmware using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476. Surest way to get back from failed flashes. You can flash the full 4.2.2 or 4.4.2 KDZ and then start over again. That method wipes everything though.

YIKES.
Well.. it got the TWRP recovery loaded alright.
But it won't boot into anything else...light is flashing but screen is black.
HELP
I am screwed here.
#1. Tried the "unbrick stock" solution. Can NOT get it to work. I tried it all 3 ways given and it gets to the LG driver start... and then it says I am up to date. I tried to change the country, the language, upgrade recovery, can NOT get it to work.
#2. I can get TWRP to load. But I can't get my computer to recognize my phone so I can move a rom over
#3. I can't get ADB to recognize my phone.
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP

save yourself the hassle flash stock 4.4.2 KK, use IORoot25 to root and then use Autorec to install Custom recovery.
Time needed 1 hour.

I have went through many tutorials but none of them were able to help me with flashing custom recovery(TWRP). My LG G3 D855 was rooted with towelroot(I think long time ago). I do not know how can I unlock my bootloader or I don't know if it is already unlocked(Picked it off craiglist long time ago). Phone is stuck in fastboot mode. I have tried to fix but I could not. There is no 'download mode'.
Could you please explain each and every step in detail? I really want to reboot my device with a custom ROM.
Phone is running Androind 4.4.2.
So guys? Any help? Just tell me how can I remove that fastboot mode that appears when I restart my device for recovery.

Have you flashed TWRP already?
I have a an D855, I don't think you have to worry about a locked bootloader Mate,
but it was a long time since I got rid of the LG crap, because it was the first thing I did after buying new!
You're on 4.4.2 with towel root so it should very simple to download and flash TWRP using the official TWRP app in Playstore or using an app like Flashify etc.
I basically lost my S7 Edge a week ago so I'm back using my old LG G3 now running Resurrection Remix 5.8(Nougat 7.1.2. AOSP based)
If you wanna run anything using Aroma installer then don't go later than TWRP 3.0.0. for now, because the newer versions don't work.
Either download the Quickboot app to boot to recovery or search on Youtube on how to boot to recovery from off..

The problem is, there is no recovery. Even though flashing TWRP via flashify resulted in nothing but an error showing "Fastboot mode started" when I tapped on option named "Reboot to recovery". This is the main problem I am facing. I can flash, upgrade/downgrade and etc but this fastboot mode thing is something beyond what I can fix with my current knowledge.

Maybe first flash back stock, update to the latest firmware and start fresh from there?
There are some good guides in the forums here for that.

If you've to go back to firmware, don't install the newest. Rooting needs an older version. Also described in root-threads here.
Hi all,
I got some strange problem:
I did an ODIN reinstall of complete OREO stock samsung ROM.
I swiped in twrp but i didnt want that so i reflashed twrp with odin.
Then i got a red screen while i wanted to enter TWRP. I retried flashing, no luck still a red screen. Also older versions.
I do however seem to be able to boot into samsung recovery mode.
I tried to flash twrp with adb. But my phone will not boot into Bootloader mode? It just restarts?
(as i understand, Bootloader mode is NOT download mode right?)
It is soft brick something?
Any help would be appriciated very much.
Thx!
Mrmoves
EDIT: I just found out im on Bootloader 3.
I have flashed the newest OREO a lot of times now with ODIN. Its works. Going into recovery works as well.
Still not able to boot into bootloader, or install TWRP for some reason?
EDIT2: I fixed it!. i flashed the newest OREO for the 5th time or smhting and for some reason i was also able to get TWRP on it again =)
Now rooted with Magisk all working =)
