[Q] No USB mount in recovery? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ive tried both Philz and CWM and mounting the sd card to usb doesn't seem to work in either. On the kindle I can go in and wipe every single thing on the device, mount the sd to usb, and copy over a ROM and Gapps and be on my way. What am I missing with the LG G2?

Im the only one that has usb issues in recovery?

tried twrp 2.7.0.0 and that doesnt work either.

I find it unnecessary to wipe internal sd so haven't encountered your problem, but couldn't you adb push the Rom and gapps to storage/emulated/0 and get the same result? I think usb otg can be used as well but I haven't tried that either.

Setting up adb abd getting the drivers so that each android device is actually recognized in Windows is an incredible pain in the ass.

ADB push the ROM file to internal sd
i searched the forum and cant seem to figure out how to get adb to work when i cant boot into a OS
just setup ADB and drivers on your PC and then connect your TF while in recovery to your PC.
Also, some recoveries have the "mount sdcard as usb storage" option, but in this case you'll need an microsd card.

Recovery and Mount USB Storage

I'm using TWRP and I'm unable to mount the USB storage in recovery so that my internal and external SD cards show up as removable drives in My Computer. Can anyone else do this?
I don't think so on TWRP
CWM, I believe so--
On CWM there's not an option. In TWRP there is. But it's not working. I'm thinking it's a drivers issue.

Someone on another thread showed the option and said it works, I believe
I know TWRP it does not
Just wanted to follow-up on this. I'm assuming we're still unable to mount USB storage from either CWM or TWRP recovery?
I haven't researched this as I have an iMac and use Android File Transfer
But, some info thru Google Search

I'd love to have this option working since I'm getting tired of using adb sideload option.

[Q] LG G2 D802 Won't turn on because of full wipe data

Hi, i wast trying to install a new custom rom (AOKP) on my LG G2 D802, so i rooted my phone and then installed TWRP and had a copy of custom rom zip file in my internal SD card.
But unfortunately and out of stupidity or lack of experience or something like that, i tought i have to wipe all the data on my phone. So i checked all the checkboxes in wipe data section (System, dalvik, etc) and then wiped everything and now my phone won't turn on and stucks on the LG logo.
i can go to TWRP but the Custom rom zip file is gone, and G2 does not have any external SD card slot. if it had one i could copy the zip file on the sd and flash it in TWRP. My pc does not recognize my phone and i can not copy anything on that.
I think it's worth mentioning that i backed up my phone before that (when it was on stock rom and working) and i have the back up on my pc, but how can i copy that in my phone's internal sd card?!
Can anyone plz help me? I really dont know what to do now!
Get an otg cable and use a flash drive or card reader with it.

Or just flash a kdz with lg tool. And start over
using OTG with a flash doesn not seem to work.
I'm going to use the stock rom as you said, thanks.

I can not use adb sideload or adb push because my pc does not recognize my phone as an adb device. I have installed LG drivers (LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN310AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.10.1.exe) but it seems there is something wrong with my drivers. I see a warning icon in the device manager for LGD-D802 and in adb push or adb sideload i get Device not found error, do u know how can i fix that?

There is a thread somewhere tracing thou do install adb drivers for twrp, I have no idea where it is though. Basically you have to go to device manager and manually select the driver, it should be under Google and some drover under that.. Just search for the thread hahaha

I also did this. Formatted internal SD when on TWRP.
The solution was to put the phone in download mode and recovery it (flash stock rom) through LG Support Tool.
I installed adb drivers itself instead of lg drivers and then i was able to push files in my phone using adb push.
i used sideload and flashed the ROM.
Thanks for the help.

Stuck after wipe mistake without storage

Hey there.
I accidentally wiped my whole internal storage after factory reset, and now I can't access (copy) new rom to my NS. Tried both TWRP and CWM, but both were unable to mount the storage, and therefore nothing shows up in my PC as removable device. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance :/
I think that you should be able to fastboot an older version of cwm via usb on pc, an older cwm has a working mount storage and you could flas a rom via pc

Oh, why I didn't think of that? Thanks!
But I already figured it out, managed to install new ROM with ADB sideload.
Btw why isn't the USB storage still not working in new TWRP and CWM?

Not quite sure why is it like that, but an older one should do the trick, you can try the latest 6.0.5.0 and see if it works with it

[Q] Bricked phone - please help

Hi!
Basically every time I got OTA update notification, I installed it from PC since there could be some problems with OTA. But today I had a busy day and totally forgot to do that, so I just accepted the OTA update. Now the only screen I have access to is Philz Recovery. I've tried sideload, adb pushing ROM onto sdcard and installing it from there and using download mode (doesn't work at all) and I have no idea what else can I do. One more thing I noticed is that /system/ partition keeps unmounting after reboot and sideloading.
Is there anyone that can help me?
Reflash stock ROM
sent from my T-Mobile LG-VS980
I can't access Download Mode, it boots straight into recovery.
get a usb otg cable and put a rom on on a flash drive (or micro sd card with reader), then connect the usb otg cable and boot to recovery then flash the rom. Also try to wipe cache/davlik and see if that helps
Which option in Philz should I choose to find the ROM on pendrive?
