[Q] lg g2 (verizon) won't load - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the LG G2 Verizon
Was on the 12B OTA when I rooted using ioroot 19 and flashed twrp 2.6.3.3 using freegee from playstore.
I went into twrp Flashed ROM Malladus 1.2.5 The LG apps and JB apps
After the 3 zip files were successfully installed. I rebooted system. The LG logo came on for a second and the screen turn black. I left the phone for 30 minutes hoping it was part of the ROM loading.
I can go back to twrp holding down power button + volume down and do a factory reset. Tried re installing ROM and apps. Same thing happens again.
I haven't tried to format data because then I won't have a ROM to install and reading other posts it just doesn't help.
I've read threads how to get back to stock rom but I don't know if that's my solution to my problem.
Can someone please help and give a step by step.
Thank you,

This is the reason you are unable to flash Malladus 1.2.5 and have it boot properly.

Oh I wow I had flashed the ROM the same time that guy posted. Well thank you for that link.:good: I'm just happy it wasn't something really bad like the point of no return to use my phone.
Do you think I can perform 2. Copy the boot.img installing section from updater-script (under META-INF) from 1.2.2 into 1.2.5 and then install
By sideload on twrp?

D802 Bricked. Please Help

While trying ti install CM 11 from TWRP i managed to brick the phone. I dont want to waste time sharing the details unless it's need to solve the problem. The main thing is that my phone is now stuck at the LG logo. Previously i was running the CM 10.2 Stable Build.
How can i get back to working condition? Either CM or Genuine LG Rom, I just want my phone to be up and running.
Please Help. I am really scared at this moment.
You don't share any details so I have to guess...
Enter recovery like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifi-ArGeTzQ , restore your Backup or flash another ROM, done.

I can enter both the modes shown in the video.
The thing is i was running CM 10.2 with a TWRP installed of version 2.6.3.2. I downloaded the CM 11 and went into TWRp to flash it but it couldnt flash the CM11. Then after searching the net i found out that TWRP 2.6.3.3 or higher is required to install CM11. The problem is that i wiped my dalvic, data, cache and system and did not keep a backup. So when the Cm11 wont install i was stuck in the TWRP as i didn not have the 10.2 rom file in the phone.
Then downloaded the TWRP 2.6.3.3 and also a CWM zip (just in case). Using ADB i tried to update the TWRM but still some other error shows up. Tried installing the CWm still some error shows up. i tried installing again and this time the recovery asked me to install superuser (though i was rooted). I selected YES and after that i am boot looping in the lg logo.
Anyways thats basically what happened. Now how do i get further and make my phone work again?
Please help brother. I am in deep trouble.
Thank You
Man... always keep a backup, you know, just in case
Shouldn't be a problem at all. You have ADB access right? So here is TWRP 2.6.3.4 those are flashable ZIPs.
Push the file, flash with recovery, reboot to recovery again and you should be on 2.6.3.4. Then flash CM11 and you are good to go...

So you can't enter the recovery like shown in the video? And the command adb reboot recovery doesn't work either?
At this point your only option is to return back to stock and start over but with a recovery from the link I provided in the other thread.

Ok then i will follow this process and hopefully be successful in getting my phone up and running.
Thanks for the help. Downloading 2Gb will take some time. So will post the result tomorrow.
Regarding rooting and installing custom recovery again, i will do that later. For now i just want my phone alive.
Anyways Thanks again everyone for the helpful information
Try getting to download mode right now. Because if you can't get to download mode you can't use the back to stock method
from my Note Thrizzle
Thanks everyone for the help and support. I have successfully reverted back to Stock LG Firmware.
I have some questions.
1. Do i have root access anymore?
2. Is my previous custom recovery still in my system?
3. If no for both then please help me with the appropriate article to root, install custom recovery and then install CM11, as my previous recovery was not able to install CM 11.
Thank You

[Q] D800 - Stuck on logo / loading apps post-restore

EDIT: Well it's not solved, but in the process of trying to fix it I soft-bricked it so I forced myself to have to tot back to 4.2.2 using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2687768 . Now I'm simply trying to get it to OTA back to D80020y (on Cricket... using a prepaid AT&T sim to try and force an OTA... no luck).
I'm sure I'll end up facepalming as I've gotta be missing something simple.
I was running stock D80020y, rooted with a few exposed tweaks - nothing major. I flashed TWRP using Autorec, did a full "nandroid", then proceeded to install Blisspop 3.3 by doing the following steps:
A full wipe
Flashing LP_30d loki'd bootstack (my hunch is this is the problem)
Flashing the rom + gapps
I had lots of issues with it not recognizing my sim card and acting as if I had no service, despite the APN settings looking accurate. So I got back into recovery (had to install/run autorec again as I couldn't get into it from the rom), restored my EFS just in case, then did a full wipe and restored the nandroid - all of it.
The first time it booted up, it went through the update of every app and just hung on "starting apps". I let it go for a good 10 minutes before rebooting and it just hung at the logo prior to full boot. I got back into recovery and restored again, but no luck - it just hangs every time.
Is the bootstack my problem? I REALLY don't want to have to flash back to stock via kdz or tot as I'm on cricket and won't be able to OTA back to D80020y. Any input is appreciated!

[Q] Custom ROMs not booting (boot loop)

I have looked at a lot of posts here over the past few days and have not found an answer to my problem. I figure more info is better that not enough, so I'm sorry if this gets a little long.
I have 2 LG G2 VS980s and have recently moved from Verizon to T-Mobile. I have the phones rooted and decided to try some custom roms. I have tried (I think) a lot of different ways to do this, with limited results. I am using TWRP as the bootloader and have tried bumped and standard (I think). They both act the same way. I initially installed TWRP with AutoRec that installed 2.7.0.0 and then flashed to 2.8.6.0. I then tried the following roms: ParanoidAndroid (latest on website), cm11, and AOPK. All three of these resulted with the phone going into boot looping. I was then able to flash the stock rom back on using lg-toolkit and the phone boot fine. I have tried VS980 stock 4.4.2 24A and 4.4.2 27A, and the phone boots fine with each.
Using the same method above I loaded on the CloudyG2 2.2 and CloudyStock roms and they both booted fine.
So to my actual question. How exactly can I get all these other roms to boot so that I can try them out? I'm sure that I have missed something since some roms work and others on this forum has gotten the other roms working.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

I flashed the following file: bootstack-vs980-LP_39a-loki-signed.zip and then tried to load CM12 file: cm-12-20150619-NIGHTLY-vs980. After this the phone goes into bootloop. When I get back into TWRP (version 2.8.6.3) I try and restore the TWRP back up, but the sdcard had been wiped and only the following folders are left: 0, obb and TWRP (with no sub-folders, so no backups). Luckily, I have the backup on a thumb drive, restored it and it boots and runs fine.
I tried loading the bootstack file through TWRP (Install) with the above results. I tried to loading it through the app "Flashify". When I rebooted the phone went into TWRP, ran a script that I didn't catch and then rebooted just fine. However, when I installed CM12 in TWRP I still got the same results above. I have restored the backups (from the drive) and am now ready to try something again.
Just to be clear, I started with TWRP 2.8.6.3 and as far as I can tell, it never changed.
I still appreciate your help and I know there is a way to get this to work. I'm sure I am missing something simple.

It goes into bootloop because you flashed the lp bootstack with a non-caf rom.

Thanks for your reply. After reading the response from v.konvict above, I thought that CM12 would be caf, but it isn't. I've got several more ROMs working now by using different bootstacks, but it is trial and error with some of the ROMs.

D802, flashed CM 13, black screen after <1s LG logo

I have been using CM12.1 on an LG G2 D802 and decided to upgrade the device to CM 13 today. As the device was running the stock 4.4 ROM before I initially switched to CM 12.1, I figured it would already have the Kitkat bootloader installed and proceeded to download the latest CM 13 nightly from the CM page as well the stock OpenGapps package. I then booted into TWRP (v2.6.3.3), wiped system, dalvik, data and cache and then flashed the ROM and the Gapps package which worked just fine.
However, when I selected "reboot system", the screen went black. I turned the phone off by pressing the power button. turned it on again and found that the LG logo flashes up for less than 1 second, then the screen goes black again. Gladly, I am still able to boot into TWRP. I then searched the forums, decided to try the latest Lollipop bootstack from this thread and reflashed the ROM and the Gapps package, but the problem still persits.
I am now thinking if my seriously outdated TWRP version is causing the problem, but I hesitate to update that (as it is basically the only working thing on the phone right now) without making sure that it really could be the problem.
Do you have any tips for me what could be the problem and how I can fix the phone?
Thank you very much!

to boot into system you need hybrid bootstacks, and definitiverly need thermal twrp 2.8.7.3
you could either do both. download twrp and bootstaclks the hybrid ones.
first update twrp if you want. but i recomend as it has thermal to control heat during installations
once you in twrp. wipe all. then reboot into recovery from recovery.
flash hybrid bootstacks then again reboot into recovery from recovery, and when you in twrp flash rom it should boot.
just remeber to reboot into recovery each time you flash twrp ot hybrids to take effect.
