LG G2 boot loop after flashing OpTimuS DE - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried installing a custom ROM (OpTimuS DE). I reached step 4, however, after I rebooted, the the phone opens than shows a box titled (Android is Upgrading) followed by Starting app. This screen is shown shortly and the phone resets. It continues to do this.
I used CWM.

[Q]How do I get this beast into recovery mode?

How do I get this phone into Recovery mode so I can flash from TWRP?
I've been searching, but haven't found anything.
TWRP Manager, Goo Manager, ROM Toolbox, Quickboot, and Reboot have all worked for me.

From original android Dev thread.
press and hold Power and Vol- until see the LG logo, after you see the logo release buttons for 1 second then press and hold Power and Vol- again until you see the factory reset screen, just push power to confirm reset, it will prompt you twice, just continue and this will boot you into recovery.

adb reboot recovery
Last I knew users were being warned against using hardware key combos to enter recovery. Did something change recently?

Thanks everyone. I know it was a dumb question. I was able to get in. Goo did it for me, but thanks to your response, I have learned of other ways to do it.

If your LG2 does not boot, how do you get to recovery (this is presuming TWRP has already been installed), since you cannot get to those apps?

Thanks for pointing me there, tdevaughn.
That's awesome, except on this G2 it's power & volume -, wait, then release volume - and press volume +. Othertimes it's as described here. Other times neither method works. Always takes 15 minutes. Got there once by starting up by pressing volume - and power.. Saw the LG logo then volume + and power.. I have a tripolar g2

Issue after installing camera mod

I installed AOSB recently and decided to try out xdebbebs camera mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548974) and now it gets stuck at the boot screen. I can't get recovery to come up via power+vol down and if I try to access it via ADB it says unauthorized.
i can get into the hardware button control menu where it shows my imei and allows me to select answering calls by pressing both volume buttons and that.
i also am able to get into download mode. but i cant find the drivers and they wont auto install

Hold power+volume down
Let go of power button for a second when lg logo pops up then press again you should see something that says factory reset hit power a few times it should go into twrp or cwm hope it works

[Q] Stuck in boot loop and can't access recovery

My phone (LG G2 Verizon VS980) reboots at the LG logo (in a loop) after I successfully flashed cyanogenmod 11 and I can't seem to access TWRP with the instructions in their wiki: With the device powered down, hold Volume Down & Power. When the LG logo appears release the buttons and then press them again. Then, press the Power button three times!
Any ideas how I can get into TWRP? I can't connect on adb.

Do you have download mode? You might have to use the flashtool to get out of this.

Use vol - and vol + simultaneously and plug into PC..
It should hopefully go into download mode!
As for recovery, try brute force (different combinations with volume, home, back, menu and power keys)

Hold vol up and down at the same time then hold powee as soon as the lg logo shows up let go of power and keep holding vol up and down and quickly press menu. It will get you to recovery.
If that wont work then remove battery and then hold up and down and as soon as the lg logo apears hold menu.
Try it a few times it will work.

[Q] Stuck at boot after Nandroid restore

Hi
I installed FluffyRom (which is based on Simple Rom) on my D802 and everything was ok.
I was not happy with the ROM so I did a Nandroid restore of my previous install which was BlissRom
After reboot I can see the LG logo, which then flickers a bit and fades away and then black screen.
If I connect to my Windows PC I can see the internal storage. If I long press the power button, something vibrates and if I tap the screen I can shut it down so I assume that the rom is running but I do not get the visuals.
I would like to have it working again, what can I do as i don't have an idea... the only thing I found out is that the baseband has been changed by the Simple Rom install ...
BlissPop need JB baseband:

Have you tried either of the following:
Download Mode
Power off your G2.
Hold Volume Up and plug your G2 into PC via USB cable, keep holding Volume Up until your G2 displays "Download Mode".
If in Download Mode follow this tutorial.
Recovery Mode
Power off your G2.
There's 2 possible options to access Recovery depending on your current Bootloader.
JellyBean Bootloader
Hold Power+Volume Down, when the LG Logo appears let go of Power+Volume Down and again hold Power+Volume Down.
KitKat Bootloader
Hold Power+Volume Down, when the LG Logo appears let go of Power+Volume Down and hold Volume Up+Volume Down.
Yes, to power off your phone, long press power button for 15sec.
Then enter recovery with vol down + power like @d00lz say.
(Hold Power+Volume Down, when the LG Logo appears relaise Power+Volume Down and press again Power+Volume Down.)
