Stuck in LG screen boot loop! - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I'm in trouble. I can access TWRP but get a bootloop if i try to start up.
I will try to make this as clear as possible and go through the steps in order to get you guys the best information to help me fix this.
First of all I don't know how to use adb so treat me like a noob if you talk to me about it. I know I have it but when i try and open it the console flashes then exits.
I have sprint so the ls980
So i started on 4.2 and wanted to upgrade to a KK rom. I chose CloudyPro.
So i flashed TWRP[2.6.3.0] (sprint ls980 version) with flashify and it seemed to work.
Did my backups and full wipe
Then I flashed the 4.4 baseband through TWRP
Then flashed cloudyPro and it said successful (although it said something about a meta data recursive error)
After trying to boot up it went to the LG boot screen then back to TWRP.
Any help would be truly appreciated. Sorry if I come off as needy but I'm scared lol.

D802 Bricked. Please Help

While trying ti install CM 11 from TWRP i managed to brick the phone. I dont want to waste time sharing the details unless it's need to solve the problem. The main thing is that my phone is now stuck at the LG logo. Previously i was running the CM 10.2 Stable Build.
How can i get back to working condition? Either CM or Genuine LG Rom, I just want my phone to be up and running.
Please Help. I am really scared at this moment.
You don't share any details so I have to guess...
Enter recovery like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifi-ArGeTzQ , restore your Backup or flash another ROM, done.

I can enter both the modes shown in the video.
The thing is i was running CM 10.2 with a TWRP installed of version 2.6.3.2. I downloaded the CM 11 and went into TWRp to flash it but it couldnt flash the CM11. Then after searching the net i found out that TWRP 2.6.3.3 or higher is required to install CM11. The problem is that i wiped my dalvic, data, cache and system and did not keep a backup. So when the Cm11 wont install i was stuck in the TWRP as i didn not have the 10.2 rom file in the phone.
Then downloaded the TWRP 2.6.3.3 and also a CWM zip (just in case). Using ADB i tried to update the TWRM but still some other error shows up. Tried installing the CWm still some error shows up. i tried installing again and this time the recovery asked me to install superuser (though i was rooted). I selected YES and after that i am boot looping in the lg logo.
Anyways thats basically what happened. Now how do i get further and make my phone work again?
Please help brother. I am in deep trouble.
Thank You
Man... always keep a backup, you know, just in case
Shouldn't be a problem at all. You have ADB access right? So here is TWRP 2.6.3.4 those are flashable ZIPs.
Push the file, flash with recovery, reboot to recovery again and you should be on 2.6.3.4. Then flash CM11 and you are good to go...

So you can't enter the recovery like shown in the video? And the command adb reboot recovery doesn't work either?
At this point your only option is to return back to stock and start over but with a recovery from the link I provided in the other thread.

Ok then i will follow this process and hopefully be successful in getting my phone up and running.
Thanks for the help. Downloading 2Gb will take some time. So will post the result tomorrow.
Regarding rooting and installing custom recovery again, i will do that later. For now i just want my phone alive.
Anyways Thanks again everyone for the helpful information
Try getting to download mode right now. Because if you can't get to download mode you can't use the back to stock method
from my Note Thrizzle
Thanks everyone for the help and support. I have successfully reverted back to Stock LG Firmware.
I have some questions.
1. Do i have root access anymore?
2. Is my previous custom recovery still in my system?
3. If no for both then please help me with the appropriate article to root, install custom recovery and then install CM11, as my previous recovery was not able to install CM 11.
Thank You

If you're stuck on a recovery loop, the best solution is to restore back to stock.
Here are the instructions.
thanks

thank you i will try
This should be in questions, not development, but...
Not giving much information. What ROM are you trying to install? How big is the file? Did you check the MD5? What wipes did you perform? What were you running before you deleted the system? Do you have an EFS backup?
Try this
This worked wonders for me with a very similar problem.

[Q] [Help] LG G2 stuck on Recovery Mode.

Hello everyone and I apologize if there's been a solution to this before but I couldn't find it.
I was on Rooted stock V20F, and there was a new OTA update from LG (around 110 MBs). Before installing anything i made a backup from TWRP Recovery just in case anything went bad.
So after I download the official update, the phone reboots, and boots into TWRP recovery. From that moment, I can't get the phone to boot properly no matter what I do.
I tried restoring my backup, the phone will still boot into TWRP. Tried Factory Reset, Format Data, installing a new custom rom and nothing. It always brings me back to TWRP.
Also when i try to get into download mode so I can flash a KDZ file with flash tool, it boots into TWRP again.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance.
edit: I actually found the solution here (it wasn't in the troubleshoot section and I didn't notice it..): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696
Is there any way to install official OTA updates without the phone freaking out?

Can't enter recovery or update: boot certification verify error

I am on 6.0.1 CyanogenMod13. I haven't done a whole lot root-wise but just today I was looking to get something from xposed and it turned out I didn't even have it installed, so I downloaded it and installed it but needing to flash the .zip I tried to boot into TWRP recovery. Somehow it got uninstalled or something because I could only get into the LG stock screen asking if I wanted to wipe everything. So I tried to install TWRP using Flashify, I installed and on the reboot it gave me a "Can't Enter Recovery Or Update" and some more things about it on the top left above the boot logo. I can't do anything recovery-wise. I'm looking to sell my G2 but I want to make it stock or at least a clean install and I can't do any of that. What can I do??

This got me down to 4.4.2 but when trying to install TWRP it gives me the same Boot certification error and I can't
EDIT: I used AutoRec on 4.4.2 and I have TWRP working!

I need help with file system, i cant install any rom.

Hi, today i just played with file systems today and now i can't install any other roms excepting supermanrom. So i think i have a problem with file systems. Which file system does s7 edge using for default? Can any master help me? After im installing any rom it's stuck at bootloop
Which one should i use for example system and data file? ext4 or f2fs or any other?
Can you give us some more information?
if your stuck in boot loop? can you not boot into twrp?
Did you turn off OEM unlocking in developer options?
If you can load twrp? lots of info on returning to stock on here
just use search for installing to stock after bad flash.
Or other option would be flash another custom Rom.
Or are you saying you cant do any of the above?
If so what errors are you getting? it may help others that know more on
returning to stock.
I only flashed my first Rom to my S7E a few days ago after two bad flashing and had to have phone fixed in shop
to be honest I just did not read every thing and missed out apart and got stuck in boot loop.
but this time did the same but had twrp installed and just kept reading up on errors i was getting and in the end
i got it sorted.
May not of been much help but hope you get it sorted.
Good Luck

Format all with ext4 (in twrp). Especially the system. Because all touchwiz cusrom can only run on ext4. After all normal, you can just format to f2fs for data and cache
