I have the D800. I rooted and flashed TWRP. I then tried to flash a rom. Everything was fine but when it reboot the only thing that came up is the LG logo and then the screen goes black.
So when I hold down the power button and the volume down button a couple of times, the factory reset comes on. If i tried to reset, it'll let me into the TWRP. BUT I have no useable rom downloaded.
AND when I tried to plug my phone into my laptop, I get a ton of drives that windows asks me to format. I tried to hold the volume up button to get into download mode but no dice.
My theory is if I could somehow put a new rom into the phone, I could then flash that?
So help please?

the first question I am going to ask you is did you have the common sense to make a backup before trying to flash a new rom. If you did not do this there is a way to fix it
Nope, my big mistake is forgetting to have something else besides the new rom.
So no way at all? Man that really bites.

Ok give me a second.. I'm going to find you a link to flash stock ROM back on using download mode..I'm sure you just aren't doing it right because I did the same thing and it went into download mode no problem.. Make sure your phone is off.. Go to twrp power off setting.. After phone is off hold volume up and plug into computer... Gimmie a min and I'll find that link for the tools

How exactly are you trying to get into download mode? You have to be quick when doing it. It's the power and vol + key. When plugging in your phone to the computer make sure you quickly press and hold vol + and power key. It took me numerous tries to get it done but it worked eventually. Also, do you have all the correct drivers installed for your G2?

Thank you! I've been holding down only the volume + key. But got it on the second try with the power + volume. Fixed now!
Glad to hear this worked.

Hey, so i recently broke my mytouch4g. The volume up button seems to act as if its jammed, when its really not because i can still click it. So i called a local cell phone repair shop, and they didnt know what kind of cable the mytouch4g had for the volume buttons, and I'd like to know before i actually go out and try to get it fixed.
When i press the power button, it vibrates 3 times, then blinks an orange LED, screen somewhat lights up. if anyone could help me out on this, maybe by flashing something to get in a different mode instead of that, because after letting it sit for a day it finally turned on. but im afraid to turn it off and try again to see what happens.. Is there some sort of menu i could flash that'll get me to this? Thanks
Well you're booted up right now, in the Android OS right? Are you rooted? If so, flash CWM Recovery and flash a ROM. If not, don't know what to tell you. Not even sure if this answer is right. Anyone wanna back me up or give a better answer, be my guest. Hope this helps you somewhat.
CWM recovery? can you get to that with volume up + power ? and once i turn it off, it wont work again till i get if fixed. this has happened before

Yes CWM Recovery. If you already flash the recovery, you can get there through bootloader (volume DOWN + power) then select recovery.

OK then. Download ROM Manager from the Play Store, flash the latest recovery, then select reboot into recovery.
Also, off topic, but...700th POST!

Can you get in to Bootloader?Me too recently had that kind of probem on my desire.Phone did not allow to get in to recovery.
So I tried getting Cyanogenmod 10.2 for my LG G2 (D800). I did some stuff and ended up rebooting and getting this screen.

I used TWRP for backup, but can't even get into phone to do anything.
Also it won't come up on my computer when I plug it in with usb. I tried both my computers and they both had the drivers but the phone won't even connect to either pc. I could connect easily the day before though.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2403058&stc=1&d=1384904247
I also got this while pushing Power and both Volume buttons at same time.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2403059&stc=1&d=1384904390
What should I do? :crying: If you guys need more info or pictures just tell me, I'll do anything to fix my phone.
Hold power down for 15+ seconds. Then hold volume up and plug in USB. This should get you into download mode to kdz. May take a few attempts.

I see your using Utorrent you pirate! JK
It looks as if your phone has some life left, not really too familiar with D800. Have You tried the key combo to get into TWRP? Does the D800 have download mode?
Also did you by chance flash the wrong rom (different carrier)? Did you wipe the internal storage?
It looks like the incorrect ROM was flashed, it did not like your boot.img. You should be fine. Hold down the power button for +-15s as he said. During that time the screen should turn off, back on to the LG screen, then back off again. The phone should stay powered off. Then, hold the vol- & pwr buttons, releasing them when you see the LG screen. While still on the LG screen, press and hold the power button until you arrive at the LG factory reset menu. Press the power button to confirm a factory reset, which will actually boot you into TWRP so you can restore your backup.

I have the lg g2 d800 as well and I also had a similiar issue. I wiped to clean for new rom and accidently before installing cm-10.2 I hit the reboot button. I just want to say thank you guys for all the knowledge base. Reading this thread fixed mine too.
I had similar issue couple weeks ago bad flash,no backups and unable to mount sd from custom recovery, the only way for me to fix this was to install rom via sideload, which was pain for two days.

Be sure to turn of the phone completly by holding the power button untill it starts to reboot. You will see the lg logo for a short while. After that do the volume down + power button. When you see the lg logo let go and press (and hold) volume down and power button again. Now you should be prompt to press the power button three times to reset the phone. This will take you to the recovery and let you restor your backup if you have made one.
Hope this will help you.
I ran into this same problem not too long ago. The best way to get your phone back working is trying to get into download mode and reflashing pure stock.
Just hold down the power button, even when it tries to boot up. Keep holding after the second vibration where it tries to boot up again. Then, if the screen stays black, your phone is fully off.
Then follow the instructions on here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
I had the exact problem and I installed LGMobile Support Tool. It will flash stock recovery + stock system. Once the program complete you'll need to hold the volume down + power button. When you see the lg logo let go and press (and hold) volume down and power button again. Now you should be prompt to press the power button three times to reset the phone. Then will start up CWM recovery and will return you to stock.

I saw that people who used the lg launcher to install recovery to their phone in download mode had the same issue. Have you expereinced this? Does it really mean i only have 11gb?

Most likely your phone has the D80010o firmware, downgrade to D80010d and you shouldn't have that issue you've described in the OP.

such friends have a big problem with my G2 I want meti up the volume on the stock rom kit kat and so we change the audio xml file I saw in a tutorial here in HTCMania, but restarting the phone will stay locked in bootloop where it says tmobile.
then proceeded to do hard reset thinking that would be solved well but after performing hard reset STAYING was still locked.
well I'll have to reinstall the software and told me when I headed to want to put the phone in download mode (off the phone and press Vol + connect usb cable) to my surprise the phone did not enter the download mode. the only thing it does is connect the cable to charge on and get off.
and since then I can not find a way to revive him because I can not install the software, and "NO I HAVE INSTALLED A CUSTOM RECOVERY" so do not'm desperate someone could throw me a light? if somehow you could do enter download mode on the phone in an alternative way?

First i would try getting in to recovery using the hardware keys. Look it up on you tube. Then you should be able to use a back up if you made one.
To get in download mode you need to power off then while powering on hold the vol down key and plug in the usb cable. That will get you in download mode. You shouldn't have to do that though if you have a back up. Your phone isnt bricked?

sorry friend, but is that as explained in the previous post: long press volume + but does not go into download mode, this as locked or not happens.: Llanto:

Press and hold power and volume down until the display shuts off and the LG logo appears. Then, try pressing and holding volume up and volume down until a hard reset option appears. Reset the device and try booting it up. You will lose all data on it, but that's what you get if you're not smart enough to back it all up.

A hard reset will not help if he made changes to the system partition (which it sound like he did). If he has a recovery installed (kind of a weird sentence in the OP) this would take him into the custom recovery though.
@tuberodx7 If all else fails I'm convinced you can get it into download mode if you do it right, something like that should definitely not kill that. From there you can flash a factory image (Search for the return to stock thread in the General forum)... Your device is far from hardbricked, please do your research...

Hey man. Are you able to boot in TWRP? If you are, try this: Wait for TWRP to boot up, press Reboot button and choose Download (But make sure to be connected to your PC with a USB cable before clicking on Download button) and tell me if it works for you.
Edit: Actually, can you also just try holding VOLUME UP button for a bit longer? Just keep holding the button until "Firmware Update" screen appears, I think it should work for you.
