Ok, I need some help and I'm not sure if I'm in the right place but let's see. I have a vs980 with version b firmware. Been running cm11 with no problems at all, was using clockwork Recovery. today I installed tarp and then I installed rayglobe and I was very impressed used it all day then I decided I wanted org capability so used the tarp app from the plastore to check and flash a new recovery if one was available it said their was so I downloaded it upon flashing it aborted . I thought no prob I'll LG tool back to stock but after it starts the process it aborts because my phone is reading it's a 802 phone not vs980 so rayglobe still runs perfect phone still rooted but can't revert to stock and not sure what I can install, any help would be greatly appreciated

You could try editing the build.prop file. That's where ur device is reading that its a d802 variant. Or just use adb to push the right twrp. The one from the app failed because its not loki'd most likely. You can also download a loki'd recovery img file and flash using flashify. Once u got the correct recovery just flash a stock ROM.
Or if ur existing recovery wasn't overwritten, just flash a stock ROM.

I tried the flashift method but it just hangs its just as confused as I am! But my recovery was corrupted cause when I try to boot into it a couple letters flash across the upper left of my screen I hold down the power key and it reboots into rayglobe. Ok am not familiar. With adb I have tried to set it up but keep failing for some reason. I tried to push the b Loki sat morning and just never figured it put thought I was typing the correct commands but apparently not

If ur rooted, flashify should work. Just make sure u select recovery img from app, and make sure u have the correct recovery img downloaded.

For LG flash tool to work properly ur gonna have to edit the build.prop so it sees VS980 4G instead of d802. Not really sure how to fix a corrupted recovery on 12b firmware without adb access. Hang in there, someone here will b able to get ya fixed.

If someone can tell me in laymans terms how exactly to set up adb. And push a proper recovery (if it would help) I could try it. But the threads that I have tried to follow get me lost or lead me to bad links.

Gonna try it with philz, maybe it will work.. its annoying to flash the stock but whatever, have time today lol
Okay guys, no problem with philz
Booted in like 3 mins after flashing, so.. use philz!
Which one cause I couldn't get it to install on the b firmware
Sent from my LG-D802 using Tapatalk
this one: http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d802
but i prefer to install twrp first, then flash philz in twrp, reboot once and then flash the rom thru philz (thats what i did and its working like charm now)
The problem is if my phone thinks it's a 802 it won't let me install twrp for the vs980 beca use it thinks it's a different. Phone. Unless u pushed it to the phone with adb and I have not figured out how to do it successfully.

I have another thought and I'm hoping I can get an answer if my phone thinks it's an international 802 is it possible to use the twrp app from the play store to install twrp for the 802 this may give me the ability to get a recovery and also flash a stock 802 rom

Got my phone today and I rooted my phone and then installed TWRP. I held off installing the initial OTA update, but the phone installed it after a certain time. It rebooted and I am stuck in recovery mode in the TWRP interface. I don't have any custom ROMs installed to boot from. I did a factory reset but I'm afraid I may have deleted the stock ROM.
Is there any way to reboot back into the system? If not, how can I get the stock ROM back onto the phone through the computer?
I guess you can tell by now that I am new at this, but any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Unfortunately, I rooted the phone first, then installed TWRP, and then I installed the OTA. So now when I turn on the phone or try to reboot, it boots into the TWRP touch screen.
I stupidly did a factory reset of the phone, so I don't know what I need to do next. I know I need to get the stock rom back onto the phone somehow, but I need to get the phone to be able to link my PC to get the rom onto the SD card.
Maybe grab a nandroid from someone on verizon and throw it back on your sd Card

I poked around TWRP more and it seems my system is still installed on the phone (~2400MB). Don't know if that changes anything.

How do I do that? its the stock rom. I never loaded one a different one.
Oh, I thought you were just using one of the stock ROM's from xda... not the actual one that came with the phone. However, you can try to push a new one to your phone with adb and flash that. Do you still have the recovery zip? Maybe recovery just went bad and you can reflash it...?

Here's one thread. You should Google it for other I instructions but there are tons of them. Also try to find the adb and/or SDK download files.
Sent from my LG-G2 using Tapatalk
OK, still working on this. Dont have but a few hours here and there to get this running again. Been to tons of pages reading, reading and more reading. Downloaded and installed SDK manager. I guess it also installs ADB. I found it within the SKD Platform-tools folder but when I click on it all it does is open, goes thru a ton of commands then closes. I also found it in C:ADB folder. Does the same thing. Doesnt stay open so I can type anything in it? Ive got flashtool installed also. I cant get into download mode on my phone either.
Also trying to go this route LG G2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) in General section but dont know exactly which file to download. Right now downloading the VS98010B_13 file. Probably need the VS98011A_01 but man it takes an hour to download. Which one do I use? Also dont know if I have the D800 or D802? My box says LG-VS980. Dont know if that matters. But again I dont think I can use this method as I cant get into download mode.
I do download the KDZ files and not the TOT files right?
Any other help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Try the return to stock method with the vs98010b file first. Sounds like ur phone took an OTA hence the recovery bootloop. If u can get back to stock I'd root right away and stop any of the OTAs. U can just flash the 12B ROM and radios after installing a recovery.
Don't flash or use any files for d800 or d802, Verizon model is vs980.

OK, kept googling different things and kept reading pages from here and ran across this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 [FIX] Installed TWRP and now you're stuck after OTA under G2 Android Development. Man, that fixed it and wish I wouldnt have flashed that backup I had now, took me back a month where Ive changed a few things on my phone since but I do have my phone back. Still would like to know which file to download so I have it down the road.
If your in twrp have you tried to aideload a ROM then see if it flashes? Just need adb installed on PC and setup, drivers installed and ROM on hand.....
So for some reason while working today my phone died and when I went to turn it on it went to TWRP recovery and wouldnt leave it no matter how many times I tried rebooting it. And of course to top it off I cant get it into to download mode to revert to stock and start over. When I hold the volume up and plug it in, again it goes straight to TWRP. Need some help please.
EDIT: In case anyone is having the same problem I had, I fixed it by following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 and had to use the terminal command inside of twrp.
Then it put my phone into a bootloop but I was able to enter download mode then so I followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663369 to restore phone to factory. Hope this doenst happen to anyone but in case, there's how I fixed mine!

Hello my fellow humans of planet earth. So... With this being the first ever thread I open I get to say right from the very start that I am no pro at rooting / installing custom roms and similar stuff. I am more of a DESKTOP guy...
In any case... Yesterday I messed up big time, and don't get me wrong, I did my research... Anyway. What happened was I was updating to the latest version of CM 12.1, and just as I went in TWRP and tryied to start flashing, I got an error and no update. Then, smart me, tryied installing another update, a bit older, but still newer than the one I had running. This one probably was a bad zip and destroyed my installation of CM12... Then, even smarter me, decided it was a good idea to format and try to get CM12 anew. The TL;DR here is... I have no CM, when I connect the phone via usb it recognises it but it says "This folder is empty", so doesn't show anything on the pc side..., and the strangest problem of them all is that TWRP has gone CRAAAYYYYY! Man... Currently, the phone boots only in TWRP, but TWRP is unusable. The touch is not working properly, as I tap "wipe" for example and it opens "settings", for example. Even If I am able to actally click something, I can't do sh*t because I can't use the "slide to do w/e" ....
I am so confused. I tryied using methods like the TOT unbrick and it starts flashing and then it reboots... but into TWRP, I have no controll over anything. I even tryied some ADB stuff I found online but had no luck with that....
ANY kind of help would be worth a lot.
In any case, due to my limited internet access these days, I won't be able to see answers immediately but will probably be able to do so in some hours!
Guys, please.. for the sake of humanity, help.

Are you able to get into download mode? You can do that by holding the power button for 30 sec to power down your phone. Then hold volume up and then plug in the USB. You should get into firmware update screen.

Are you positive that you have an official d802, because there are a lot of refurbished lg g2's that claim they are d802 but in actuality they have d800/d802 motherboards. The only way to find out is to open your phone and look at the model. Open the phone then remove the power button cover, from there there should be a flex cable running from the top left to a secondary board. Lift that wire up and look at the silver square box and it should have your motherboard model.

Are you able to take a video of what happens when you flash a tot file. I have never seen that before and maybe the video will help clear some things up. Right now thinga aren't looking good. But don't lose hope there is a method but it is very very tricky/hard.

Okay, since your in side load. Go to the computer and go to the minimal adb and fastboot folder. Click **** + right click. Select open command line here. Type in "adb devices" and tell me if your device is recognized.

I was flashing the KDZ after i got stuck a boot loop and it won't go into recovery, the LG tool showed ???? for all text then it crashed and my phone powder off and now i am unable to get into download mode. when i try to go into download mode it just goes onto a blank screen and mounts drives f ~ Q on my computer.

WAIT, your phone can still be fixed. Use srk tools to unbrick your device. If you see multiple disk drives your phone is still revivable.

I tried the tools the unbrick didn't work. the device isn't showing up like it does in the video see my second screen shot. I will try it again though.
edit: right went and did it again and I still have no download mode but I can get the recovery menu, I replaced the recovery img in the folder to tWPR to try boot it but again black screen when I try. I will try replacing the files with the .img form my current rom and see if she boots
Edit 2: I see lots of disks like above but still no download mode when connecting via USB, just about to give up on this darn phone

In order to flash cloudy g3 lollipop you need to flash the KitKat baseband before you install it.

I love you, man! So simple, and yet it solved my problem flashing CloudyG2 3.3! I tried flashing it from stock KK, and couldn't do it no matter what, until I did what you said. When reading other posts, I understood KK baseband is needed when you flash from JB. Didn't realize the same applies when you are coming from stock KK. Jeez...
Anyway, big THANK YOU! :good:
