I think the problem is that he can't flash any zip or I would have recommended much the same thing.
Does your computer recognize your phone if connected to USB?

dunno if it works for your variant but if ya plug it in in download mode and open the lg mobile support tool then you can (on my version LG D802) go to options and upgrade recovery the pc will download a 2.13gb file and place it back on the phone in stock form then you just ioroot again and then flash a recovery again

There are two files you have to flash in CWM/TWRP to have it available at any time. You don't even need a computer to install and test it. Be warned, though, it's really not worth it at it's current state.

The flashable zips are in here. I haven't personally tried it yet -- internet in my country is pretty crappy.. download will take a while..

Just to get everything clear, I flash the manta.zip, then the all devices.zip, and it will boot fine? As well can I just get back into twrp after to wipe and restore from nandroid backups?
Thanks in advance for the help

The dev preview installs CWM over TWRP it seems

Flash manta, then flash the armhf, then wipe and you're good to go. That worked for me and didn't mess with my sdcard at all. (obviously it does a 'factory reset' on the device though). Backup with TWRP and you're good to go.

Only if you do it using the Ubuntu install method, where it flashes the .imgs over top. If you install it via CWM/TWRP then it keeps whatever recovery you have on the device.

I flashed them both like you said, but it would just reboot my recovery when about 2/3 the way done with the armhf zip, and i tried just rebooting system but it just boots past google and sits at a black screen. Thinking i might have a bad download but nonetheless it was not a success on my end and im just back on android.
thanks anyways for the help, if anyone else hears of this issue and knows how to solve i would love to know.
Does this OS allow me to run any Ubuntu program? Or is it a different system?

Currently, it does not.

2 mistakes during flash, what can I do ?

good morning everybody,
I am a D802 user, and I have rooted it, installed TWRP last build and wanted to install the slimkat ROM
but, I don't know why, but first I didn't perform a backup, and secondly instead of performing the system wipe, I,ve been in advanced mode and decided to wipe the internal data :silly:
and of course, now I can,t find my zip file for the nex ROM, and when I reboot I am blocked on LG logo screen, I can enter in recovery or download mode, that's all !!!
is there any other solution that flashing the stock ROM (.kdz) to solve my problem ??
many thx !!

Cool, so if you install adb onto your PC and set it up you can sideload a ROM to your recovery....and if you want you can flash stock in download mode with thread in general forum....I'm hitting the sack but if you look up adb sideload you should be able to get all the instructions
---------- Post added at 01:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 AM ----------
Basically once you have adb setup and have a ROM ready its a piece of cake and lots of threads if you Google it
I think I will have a problem with ADB, because before flashing I disable the USB debugging mode !!!! and unfortunatly I can't enable it !! Am I true ???

No youll still ne able to do it in recovery
Sent from my LG-D801 using Tapatalk
look into your recovery settings, it should have an adb option you can togle, otherwise let it go in booting loop.
navigate to the folder with the files you rooted with. There should be a adb file.
then shift rightclick if windows on that folder that contains that stuff. Select command prompt from here.
adb devices,
or adb it will or should list the phone, then find the codes to push the desired rom and optional apps to root\sdcard.
then adb reboot recovery, or reboot manually into recovery and flash your rom plus optional gapps

adb didn't work, can't recognize my device with qdb devices command !!
anyway, I flash the stock rom in Download mode and then root, TWRP and custom Rom and everything is good now !!
thx for all

Have you try to do a full wipe? In any case, yoy can download other rom that works sure and put in the sdcard using adb when you are in recovery mode...
Check if when you flash the rom, you are getting an error related with loky-... (Something like this)...
Why don't you try to install back cwm if you still have your cwm backup. Then after that restore your backup.

How can i install back to CWM? if i cant get out of Recovery?? I would just download another rom but computer wont show my phone since stuck in recovery, As you can tell i have limited access to computer privileges due to using a work computer, so I do not have any of the tools on the computer.

Yes i did a full wipe, when i flash AOKP 2/16 its successful but stays boot looping, but PA and CM11 says failed, but nothing mentioning loki.
Can you not mount in twrp? Or go into download mode and adb push another ROM onto the phone? If your in a bootloop just wipe everything twice. Mount or adb push a new ROM AFTER checking md5. Both those have worked for me :$

Is your TWRP out of date? You can update TWRP while in TWRP. Or just adp sideload another ROM.
How do you update twrp while in recovery? When flashing the other two roms its saying something about binary?? And how do you side load, yes im real new to the g2 root game, my nexus's were so much easier and never delt with adb sdk really, ill have more luck tomorrow when im on computer i can actually download stuff , when i flash aokp i see all the files through file manager but just won't boot

By using ADB. If your pc does not detect phone. Try installing lg drivers or those on pdanet drivers.
Link for universal drivers to get ADB working.

Adb is the way to go if your stuck in recovery. And even if you're a newb its easy to learn as there are countless tutorials out there. Just read up on it and then you can either push a new ROM or push cwm and restore your old backup

same here
The easiest way to fix this is with a OTG plug. This will let you plug in a USB drive with your new ROM on it. Your recovery should give you an option to access it.

Do you still have custom recovery eg. TWRP or Clockworkmod?
If you have a custom recovery, you should be able to flash the ROM from your PC using ADB, or possibly copy the ROM zip from your PC to the Nexus while it is in the Recovery menu. (My PC recognizes my Nexus as removable storage, so like a flashdrive, when plugged in while in the CWM menu).
