Accidentally deleted OS, stuck in TWRP recovery - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well, it looks like I unintentionally wiped the /data partition using TWRP right after I did my first backup after rooting. Now I obviously can't boot since system, data, cache, etc. are wiped. The backup I just made was also wiped

Wiping data partition does not wipe the rom. It just resets your rom back to a freash install.

Not sure about twrp. I use cwm and able to load roms through recovery from PC. You should be able to do it with Twrp. If not you will have to kdz back to stock.

Is there anyway to mount your phone to your computer? As there is the button on the main page of twrp 3rd one down. If not you should be able to use the adb push command to push it onto the "memory" of the phone allowing for you to read it and you to flash it from there. Or that's happened to me. I've used both of those options :$

Guys I accidentally deleted everything in my LG G2(VS980) during a cwm cleanup and now my phone gets stuck on the LG screen and goes nowhere. Adb wont work because I cant confirm the handshake and I cant push anything on the internal storage with OTG neither.....Ive wasted money trying to do so....Everyone out there is telling me this has never ever in the entire world happened to them???their really aint a fix or what???I need help bad....all the geniuses in this world have to know something........:crying:

I managed to do this once, I used TWRP adb sideload to push CM11 to my device then flashed back to stock from there.

if u have twrp 2.6.3.3 it will support otg u have to mount it after you connect to phone in recovery mode if not try format the card u r using for otg with fat32 file system and then try and if it still does not use and sideload in advanced settings to push rom, unfortunately LG drivers in pc does not seem to help pc see your phone in sideload mode so try installing pdanet drivers in ur pc and then connect ur phone to pc in sideload and push rom I did this several times and it worked all the time.

[Q] HELP!! I wiped my whole N7 in recovery.

Hi all!!
I have a huge problem i think.
Yesterday is was rooting my device, and i was about to start flashing a custom rom.
What happened is that in the proces of wiping dalvik cache etc. I by accident wiped the whole system!
So now if i want to reboot, recovery gives the error that there is no OS is installed. If i reboot my nexus 7 keeps hanging in the startup screen wich only displays Google...
It still can reboot in recovery or bootloader, but i cant figure out how to recover. I tried with 2 toolkits, but no succes! I made a nandroid backup but this doesnt work either.
Also i tried several solutions but none of them helped.
Does someone know how i can get my N7 to work again?? :crying:
Wugfresh's toolkit allows you to flash the stock image from the bootloader. Just make sure you check the box that states you cantvpower the device up.
Mskips toolkit, chose the option to flash Google image, it will download, and flash for you, if not your doing it wrong, push comes to shove your going o have to download a custom ROM and use adb to to push it on to your nexus 7 then fire up cwm and lash the rom, your nandroid will be gone unless you took it off/copied to a PC before you messed up.

I tried all those things named above with both toolkits..
When i try to flash to stock it keeps hanging at some point, or i get errors. What am i doing wrong?
I will try again what jordaanooo mentioned.. hope this time it will work.
If it doesn't work, does it help to post some screenshots with the error i get, or where it gets stuck??
Yeah, try it, make sure you state you cant boot it, and tell us what parts it stops/fails at
SMH dont use toolkits -_- so you're saying you "could" get into recovery? Why didnt you just adb push a rom
Code:
adb push name-of-rom.zip /data/media
Then flash that rom?

pretty simple. if you know how to use adb then you just need to just a ROM to apply. wether it be the stock or a custom. once you know what ROM, the easiest thing is to paste it into your adb folder (usually platform-tools) and just push it onto your sd card

Do you have cwm or twrp installed? If so you can mount the 7 like a mass storage device to your computer. This will give you access to the SD card where you can transfer a ROM from your computer to your tablet....I'm not sued where the setting is.....just go into your recovery and dig around....I think its under advanced...

[SOLVED] Unbrick Nexus 7?

Hey everybody,
Yesterday I tried flashing a theme to SmoothRom and got caught in a bootloop. In a panic, I accidentally factory wiped my sd card and lost my roms so now I can't flash another rom to my Nexus 7. I've tried adb pushing a rom to the sd card, but my Nexus 7 is not being recognized in adb devices. I've tried everything to my knowledge but I still cannot get anything to work, even tried working on Mac and PC computers and my Nexus won't show up in adb.
I'm ready to count my losses as it is my fault, but I figured you guys could help out. I love my Nexus so if you guys know anything I could do I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Re: Unbrick Nexus 7?
You can go two ways here, either you can do as the above user posted and flash a stock image via fastboot or if you have a otg cable and a pendrive/removable media you can use that to install the rom

Ok guys, I spent all last night trying to get this to work, and I'm still having problems. I tried adding the line to the driver inf file but nothing worked. I tried adding the PDANet drivers, but the Nexus of course is not showing up. I know that my Nexus is not doomed it's just something I'm not doing right, not gonna give up I'll keep at it. Thanks for the help guys, if anything have any suggestions let me know!
Sounds like you should find out if CWM touch can mount a USB flash thumbdrive via an OTG cable. You can avoid driver problems that way (as long as it works). The filesystem formatting of the USB drive with the highest probability of success will be a FAT format.
good luck

There's nothing wrong with it... you just need to flash stock with fastboot or adb sideload it.

If fastboot is really dead, then you're out of luck. Have you tried running fastboot commands, however, after trying to boot into fastboot? Sometimes the underlying software will run correctly, even if the screen is nonresponsive.

So I assume this means my only hope is to replace the motherboard which houses the memory. Is that a good assumption?
HELP!
so i had the same thing happen to me. I had access to recovery still but instead of re flashing i tried to use nexus root toolkit to factory reset. somehow fastboot failed halfway through and now recovery is gone with everything else. The only thing i can get into is the bootloader mode....
My device is still listed as a fastboot device, but when i try to re-run the flash to stock i get this: (see attached picture)
Please help, I honestly have been working on this for days, but i simply do not know enough to fix it!

I'm having a similar problem. Present state of the device is that my N7 boots into the bootloader and then to the custom recovery. I've accidently erased the OS.
Can you tell me how you managed to unbrick via OTG. Should I move the factory image to usb flash drive and then mount it via OTG and then try to flash it via recovery???

I have TWRP 2.6.3.2 installed and I can get to it, but I have no way to get a ROM onto the phone to flash and no backups. If I could get my phone to be recognized by the PC, I have my TWRP backups on my laptop. Also, yes, I can get to download mode as well, but it is stuck at the window saying not to unplug the cable and it is updating but it never does anything.
If you can get into twrp you can adb sideload a rom or push your backup to your sdcard.

LG G2 (D802) Bricked + TWRP is drunk

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.

I think the fact that I have had a similar experience to what I am facing now in the past, and fixed the phone using the TOT method FOR the actual D802, which worked, is enough. If not.. I might as well check it...

The reason I ask is because the touch is usually jumpy when you install a ROM that is different from your device model. Are you able to get into adb sideload?

No.. TWRP is kinda unusable... I followed a tutorial by HighOnAndroid the other day, and I installed some driver and I am able to interact with the phone using ADB with a fastboot folder I have. I don't know if it is the same thing though.

Try install kouch adb drivers, and download minimal adb and fastboot (Google) and then attempt to start adb sideload. But first can you check your device variant. We don't want to brick your phone.

Ok. So I did that, and now I have a cmd running which reads:
C:\Program Files <x86>\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
I don't even know if that is what I had to do..

I do have to confess... my TWRP was working great, ...UNTIL me being smarter than usual followed some guide I found online trying to get CM12.1 and used an app called AutoRec or something... which wasn't nessessary since I already had TWRP.. and then this happened. TWRP has gone nuts.

Try figuring out how far off your touches register with your phone. And then try to swipe once you find the pattern

I already have. Here's the funny part though.. I don't have enough screen... hahaha... I registers my touches a bit lower and I cannot go that low... I get that we have a problem here...
The only thing I was able to think of Is trying to emulate the phone through the pc, but I don't know If I can do that without actually having a working Android going...

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.

[Q] How to clean the device fully? [Please read]

Hey guys, any help would be appreciated!
Alright, I will try to explain it simply and clean. Basically, the thing is when I first got my LG G2 (kitkat), I rooted it and installed some mods. One of them was G2 tweaksbox xposed module. With that module, you can hide "clear all" and "task manager" button from recents. But the thing is, after I re-flashed my ROM (absolutely full wipe, nothing left), weird thing happened since. You all know that animation when going to recents from an app in jelly bean and kitkat and now, it's kinda bugged. The animation is a little bit off graphically. Basically, the animation reads navigation bar like it's a little bit bigger than it should be and it looks kinda weird, like it first goes a little bit more bottom and gets back up making it look graphically bad. Everything shows that nav bar is stock size, even tried many mods that make it stock and yeah, basically it is stock but even some apps still read it like it's wrong. That animation is fixable if I hide that buttons in recents again, but it bugs me that even after 3 months of MANY wipes and all the crap it's still like that, I just can't make it fully stock if I would want to.
So my question is, is something from xposed or anything like that left in phone even after going through FULL wipes many, many, like maaany times? Did I miss something? If so, can I do something like manual cleaning so phone will finally be 100% stock again? I call it "memory effect", sort of like phone still reads it like there's an xposed module partially and it just can't get a rid of that.
So, I would really appreciate if you read this fully and try to help me. Thanks!

Well, yeah. I wiped like everything, dude. Wiped from TWRP, then flashed .kdz with CSE. Everything is stock except that.

Yeah, that's how bad my situation is. I just can't understand what the hell is happening with this phone. I waited for it like for 6 months and never enjoyed it once.
If you use Odin to return to stock, that will wipe your entire phone completely. It will wipe your internal storage, and all partitions. It works on the d800, and I don't see why it wouldn't work for your phone.

If you have an OTG cable or drive with ROM and gapps files plugged in to your g2 there is an option to format the phone in TWRP.
But you must have ALL the files needed to flash the new ROM.

It's not like it doesn't work, it's like it works, it wipes everything, but the system is still reading like xposed is there, so what I understood is that full wipe isn't really a full wipe after all.

OTG? What do you mean by that? Does that thing cleans the device different way?
On The Go ,allows additional storage to be connected to our phones like an external hard drive

As I already mentioned, I tried that. I tried all the wiping methods possible.
When you format in TWRP it gives you a clean start, with all the files on the OTG it gives an almost new device feel.

Sorry, per your post I was thinking you tried only the Recovery TWRP Wipes. Not reinstalling the stock rom.
In this case I have no idea, sorry =(

So that means it's different from normal wiping/stock ROM installing?
