So my phone is rooted and i got the att ota update which just came automatically. And now my phone is stuck in twrp, and when i try to flash a recovery and reboot system it doesn't work it just keeps going back to the twrp. I saw that people are using adb shell and putting in some commands but my phone isn't recognized. And also i saw some people try to do it straight in the phone by putting in the commands but i can't do that. Also now when i try to reboot recovery now it says your phone does not seem to be rooted, swipe to install superuser.....i already rooted and have superuser, so when i do swipe it just goes back to the previous screen. Any help or advice is appreciated.
I think only option now is to kdz back to stock.

I rooted using ioroot12 and tried installing recovery using both play store CWM installer for D800 as well as a manual install using the method shown in a thread in the D800 development forum. Both methods appear to install successfully but when I reboot to recovery I get a black screen (can tell black light is lit though) and nothing else. Holding the power eventually reboots phone back into the stock os. When in the broken recovery status and connected to computer via USB I get a slew of drive letters all prompting to format.
I'm guessing those are all the directories on the phone which are formatted android fs?
Any ideas what is happening? ioroot12 contains some changes to be compatible with the latest OTA, maybe the stock recovery file structure changed a little after the OTA?

i repeatedly tried over and over after the ota.... it wont work you have to go back to stock reset. root then install twrp or cwm. twrp worked for me and cwm messed up my device causing a complete wipe of everything including logos and everything just a black screen that wouldnt power on. 30 minutes later it booted back up??? be careful.
Thanks

Thanks, probably saved my phone from certain destruction. I followed the steps to go back to stock and successfully rooted and was able to install custom recovery finally.
I seem to recall the OTA taking a long time for being so small, I wonder if they played with partition sizing or something on the "o" firmware.

i only seen that the att apps were updated after the update as well as a security update tightening up their security for their bootloader.as far as partitioning uncertain on that.
glad it worked for you.
I spent a few hrs last night into the am trying to root and flash a working recovery. Just realized my phone auto updated to the OTA and, think I need to go back to the pre-ota. For whatever reason, I can't get twrp to update, no matter how I try to flash it.

I got mine to root using ioroot 12. I got twrp by usint freegee app. The only thing is my recovery is 2.6.3.0. Trying to figure 9ut how to get a newer version of recovery now.

Check with the guys on the webchat If you get stuck. I gotta flash pre-OTA personally. Something that I flashed stuck and won't let twrp update.

If you're on 10o now, try using FreeGee from the Play Store, as mentioned, to get twrp installed.
heres what youre failing to realize..... with 2.6.3.0 I cant flash anything other than, nothing. Everything fails..... I cannot upgrade to the later versions of twrp, any way shape form or fashion. thanks tho

I couldn't get the 10o OTA to install but I used FreeGee to install TWRP and it was incredibly easy/simple. I've seen a few people now that have said they were also able to flash TWRP after upgrading to 10o using FreeGee as well.

If you have TWRP installed already you can just boot into recovery, flash a new TWRP or CWM recovery zip and then go to the "Advanced" menu and select Reboot>Recovery to boot into recovery again and you'll be in the new recovery you just flashed.
I tried that like 30 times over the last 2 days. I finally got flashtool to go back pre ota and now I'm running PA and have 2.6.3.3 for twrp. My reason for things not working is, I think that when I flashed something, it stuck making the code all jacked. Please next time, don't ASSume that because its supposed to work that it always will. There will always be human error.

I completely borked my phone. I installed the OTA update with TWRP installed and now stuck in recovery mode.
After the OTA update the phone entered recovery where I accidentally wiped EVERYTHING!
Phone WILL NOT enter download mode.
I AM able to use adb to push roms to sdcard. I AM able to install said rom. Upon reboot it flashes "LG" logo and then right back to recovery.
I AM able to use adb to sideload rom to phone. Sideload will complete successfully. Upon reboot it flashes "LG" logo and then right back to recovery.
I pushed CWM zip and flashed and it worked. But I still have exact same problem.
EDIT: This was the fix!!!! I guess I didn't enter the code correctly.

I see there are TONS of threads with being stuck in recovery. I probably shouldn't have created another one. But I don't understand how I have a fully functioning recovery with ADB support and am able to install roms.
I will Paypal donate $20 bucks to whoever guides me to fix this problem.

I have looked into that. They all seem to require the ability to enter download mode.

So I am not sure what I did, but I was just trying to flash the Grievous ROM earlier and it would not work, just kept going to a black screen on start up even though I didn't get any errors when installing. I retardedly forgot to make a backup so I have nothing to go back to. I tried to go into download mode to restore through the LG tool, and amazingly somehow it now says my phone is a D802.
I can still get into recovery and download mode and haven't seen fastboot yet, but I can't get my computer to recognize my phone in adb or sideload while in the recovery menu... Not sure what to do. It sucks that this phone doesn't have removable SD.
Anyone got any ideas? I've looked through other threads of people who have had this problem and luckily(I think) I still haven't got to fastboot. I was thinking if I can just get the stock files on there I can flash it in TWRP without having to even use the LG Flashtool, but I am at a loss for how to get the stock ROM on my phone.
WHAT DO I DO?
Install the kernel for the d800. To hey your phone to be recognized in recovery you will need the proper drivers, try pdanet. Drivers
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk
Okay I successfully got adb to work in the TWRP menu with the pdanet drivers, and I pushed the stock rom .zip to my phone but it won't let me flash it. Where do I get just the stock kernel?
Nevermind, got the ATT stock rooted rom from scotts site to push and install, which still gave me a black screen but afterwards but made download mode work, so got it back to stock! YAY!
Hey guys, Hopefully somebody can help me here.
Basically i flashed & rooted my D802 to 4.4.2 using this method > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2680789
All was running fine however somewhere along the line something has messed up! I tried to boot into recovery and now im hit with "Secure Booting Error! Cause : boot certification verify" instead of TWRP!
Ive tried to use this method > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625044 to flash back to stock and unroot BUT when i get to step 5. of method 1. instead of asking to to Select Country & Language it starts the LGMobile Support Tool and the tool tells me i have the latest available software for my device.
The phone is running fine and i can get into download mode.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Anybody got any ideas?
OK ive managed to boot into recovery(TWRP v2.6.3.3)I was gonna try to push a new ROM to my device via ADB sideload, When i select the ADB sideload feature TWRP just gets stuck on "Starting ADB sideload feature..." and sideload wont start!
Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks.

The ROM you flashed is from my thread. I'm not sure why you think custom recovery remains available? Unless I've missed something else you did. It is overwritten by the stock ROM when flashed. Hence I clearly stated that custom recovery will no longer be available.
I don't know what "messed up" with the ROM?
I suggest you revisit the page you used and try the alternative method if you really fell the need to downgrade...
Well after 5 house of messing around i managed to ADB push CM11 too my device, Boot the phone then connect to my PC then re-flash 4.4.2 & root using this method > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2680789

hello all.
im using a G2 D800 AT&T, and since i have a tethering problem which i was assured would be fixed if i installed a new ROM.
so i went ahead with a guide for cloudyg3 rom, rooted using towelroot and verified with root checker, all is well.
installed TWRP with freegee- the TWRP version was 2.6.3.3 and i was told i needed to upgrade it to at least 2.7.1.. thats where problems started.
i couldnt for the life of me upgrade it to any version, 2.7.1 or higher, and TWRP showed a loki.sh problem. thought maybe unrooting and starting the process all over would fix it so i deleted all my apps, then unrooted with supersu.
tried to root with towelroot and no go. immediately after trying to root, root chekcer gave me a "device is not rooted" answer (before there was no problem), and the device reboots just after im trying to remove towelroot from the task manager (center button).
did i mess up my phone so it cant root? is there a way to check that\ other root methods?
please help
Try other methods like ioroot and if still not working flash a new kdz via download mode and reroot with some method. And btw you can easily update twrp by flashing just a zip but don't forget to restart the recovery after flashing and restore defaults under setting. And next time try autorec

How Do i go about installing ioroot? Didnt see a apk file or nothing
Ioroot works via computer
Sent from my GT-N8010 using XDA Free mobile app
first, thanks for your help.
second, i got the device rooted and all, installed TWRP through freegee and downloaded newer version (2.7.1),
and when i booted the device into TWRP mode and tried updating to 2.7.1. , THE SAME THING HAPPEND AS BEFORE-
i just cant update the twrp to more than 2.6.3.3., no matter what version i try (2.7.1 or higher).
getting error message of: assert failed: run_program (temp\loki.sh)
error executing updater binary in zip \sdcard
error flasing zip \sdcard\download\...
updating partition details.
and getting two options: wipe chache\ dalvik, and reboot system.
this happend to me with EVERY TWRP UPDATE I TRY...
and from my understanding i must update twrp to more than 2.6.3.3 before trying to flash new roms.
thats the problem i had before as well, device simply wouldnt update to more than 2.6.3.3
thanks...
I rooted with towelroot then used AutoRec (link) to install TWRP on mine then updated to 2.8.3.1 from blastagator (link) via the older TWRP I installed.
WTF...PROBLEM
i installed autorec, clicked okay and got into the twrp boot recovery mode again, and tried to instal new version with same failed result (pictures added).
but then, i clicked on reboot, device rebooted, BUT DIDNT BOOT BACK TO NORMAL SCREEN.
now the screen is black with a green\blue led that keeps flashing and wont stop.
computer recognizes the device when connected with a USB.
WTF?

cant do ANYTHING.
screen is black and the led is flashing green and blue nonstop.
tried turning it on or pressing the volume down+power button but nothing (i added a picture). computer wont recognize the phone either.
when i try to call the phone is off
please help
the phone seemed to be in twrp 2.7.0 although it showed me a failed result
I'm not very sure but maybe its was something from the freegee app... you should't have any loki error
So your screen its COMPLETELY black?.. even you hold the power button or something it didnt show anything on screen?...at least if you hold the power button the led stops to flash?
UPDATE
so after i did hard factory reset i am in boot recovery mode, with a twrp version of 2.7.0.0
still cant get past the LG logo (LED keeps flashing) but at least i can be in recovery mode.
computer recognizes that the phone is connected with USB but cant get it to appear as MTP
thanks
i read up and i THINK im in a boot loop.
maybe i was really stupid- are you suppose to use autorec only on kitkat devices and nothing else? my device is 4.2.2.
Yea, I'm on the same boat. I was on 10b (4.2.2) tried using freegee. Freegee said it didn't support my device went to auto rec. Auto rec managed to flash trwp made the backup then was told to reboot the phone. Then I got the same black screen with the blue green led. I plugged in he phone to the computer and pressed volume up and the power button and I got the hard reset option. I confirmed the hard and now I have rebooted into twrp.
Word of the wise: once in trwp don't restore your backup. It doesn't work. See other thread on this.
