Hi,
Today I stuffed up my phone... I owned a Sony Acro S and Transformer Prime, which I flashed custom roms and recoveries on both with no issues.
I thought I'd be ok to try my G2...I was wrong.
I was able to root the device perfectly, then searching around I found an apk file for flashing twerp recovery. Which I did then I chose to reboot the phone, thats when I got stuck on the LG start up screen and the LED flashed blue and green. Then I realized the way I tried to put twerp on isnt suitable for my model.though saying that if I hold the power and down button I can get into twerp, but then I reboot and get stuck on the LG screen again.
I am on Stock Kitkat and my model number is D802T Australian version.
Please help... step by step help would be great.
I thought I knew what I was doing and no im confused.
I have searched and tried a few methods which I was unable to fix my issue.
Thanks
Duane.

Hmm, i dont know what you mean. By pressing the power and down button it takes me to a white factory reset screen, then takes me to twerp main screen.

Oh, so you can enter twrp ? Why don't you install a rom ?
download mode = power off the device. Hold volume up + connect to pc.

Hello,
I am very new to rooting etc. I rooted my phone a few days ago, unlocked bootloader and tried to flash cm11.0 with rom manager (cwmg) following this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2521239
Unfortunately I didn´t understand the instructions well, so after wiping caches, instead of doing a full format I did a user data etc format (which i now think was a factory reset). Tried flashing, didn´t succeed.
Anyway, when I try to switch it on I only get the lg logo and then the batery charging thingy When I try to go to recovery mode with volume up power and menu button, my phone goes on a loop of lg and cyanomod logos untill infinity ( Have to take off the battery). Tried to use heimdall (as i have a mac) to flash kdz back to it, but phone was not recognized. On my pc tried the same, but again phone not seen. I can see it on my computer as an unrecognized external usb but cannot explore. Any ideas on what to do??
thanks in advance

As soon as you plug your USB into your phone, hold down the volume up (+) button and the power button and release them after holding them down for about 2 to 3 seconds. Then, install the USB driver for your phone with the LG Mobile Support Tool. Secondly, download and install the LG PC Suite program and last but not least, download the KDZ program. Install the correct firmware for your phone and make sure you select 'EMERGENCY' from the list on the top right of the KDZ program. Select your downloaded firmware file and start the program. If everything worked out, the program should crash after it's done and your phone should reboot. Disconnect your phone from the computer if it doesn't reboot and try to boot it up again.
You can find all of these programs along with tutorials on how they work by searching on either XDA or Google.
did forcing recovery/download work ?

the phone off usb in and buttons did it work ?
Actually didn´t work,I have drivers already, LG PC Suite program , and KDZ. Problem is my phone is not detected by pc, so kdz unzips and then says : phone not detected, with or without battery...doesn´t go into recovery mode with buttons, just lg and cyanomod logos...
I don`t know if this can b fixed.....How can you flash anything if it´s not detected....
I´ll give it a try again tomorrow, without trying to enter recovery mode....but tried lots of buttons combinations and wasn´t working
Press these buttons
volume +
,volume -
home button
together with the power button
release all buttons except power button when you get a vibration
release the power button immediately after the lg logo has appered
this should let you get in the recovery menu

Hi guys, (LG G2, Rooted, had twrp but now its vanished?!)
I managed to get my LG G2 into a bootloop. I was replacing bootanimations and rebooting and testing them out. I finally tried this 1080p boot animation that looked sweet. Once the device rebooted it would show half the boot animation and then reboot. I had twrp installed but now every time i try to access it it just ignores the hotkeys as if it doesn't exist anymore. I can only get into download mode if a usb is plugged in.
All i need to do is flash TWRP again so i can flash the stock bootanimation back. I do not want to do a fresh install as I have many important files (i know i should have backed them up). I have tried to access my phone via adb using windows commandline tool whilst in download mode. however, adb doesn't find my device (I was going to attempt to push the stock animation back).
Please help me guys i need my phone to be working by monday as i have work! thanks in advance

1. If you connect your phone to PC, what happens?
2. I also had trouble accessing TWRP, so I did the "Factory reset" button combo (Don't remember what it was) and when I slided to confirm, twrp booted. From there I think you have adb and can fix everything.
To get to TWRP, hold the power button until the phone turns completely off, then turn on the phone while holding the power and volume down buttons, then when the LG logo pops up, let go and re-press those buttons. When prompted for a factory reset, press the power button. Works every time for me.
Alone i used lg flashtoolnow,its ok. I didnt click factory reset i assumed it would delete everything? With lgflash i have restored system and everything is how i left it.

First off, you'll need to make sure your phone isn't plugged in or it won't work - I'm afraid if you can't enter recovery you'll have to go back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476

Try to flash the Kitkat baseband or if you are fully stock then i suggest you to flash the KDZ to go back to full stock(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476)
If you still have important data like pictures or what then do normal flash. Use the Android version you also had as stock and use that as KDZ. If you are not stock then can you reach TWRP?
and what did you do before that causes the black screen?
Stuck with the LG logo. Nothing happens in download mode
Hi All, not sure if this has been answered prior. This is what happen, I wanted to flash SOKP so I backup my phone and saved to PC using Titanium. I have TWRP installed.
Boot Into Recovery Mode and Wipe Data,System,Cache,Dalvik
I restart so I can flash the SOKP Rom and all I see on my phone is the LG logo. I try to restart using the Power and Up button, but it just sits in the download mode saying "Firmware Update" with no movement or action.
The phone is unable to turn off now. This is my first go at Flashing a Rom. Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hey, I have the nearly same problem with my G2 running CM12 also installed recovery
But I can't reboot in recovery neither with the factory reset buttons, nor manually with SDK Manager, because the device is not found.
So I can just reboot and it shows the CM boot image, or get in the download mode.:crying:
Any suggestions?:fingers-crossed:

Help!!
I have boot loop, only download mode accessible, device not found on adb. When I try LG FlashTool, instead of using the KDZ file I provide, it starts downloading some other firmware at times, and at times it says your software is up to date. What do I do? :|

Im so foolish! I installed cyanogenmod 12.1 rom for my phone and all is fine but i got greedy and tried to flash xposed followed all the instructions for my phone. THen my phone got stuck in a boot loop but when i tried to go in recovery mode it kept opening odin. SO i searched for solutions and had to download a tar.md5 for my phone, after odin finished my phone just closed and i can't open it anymore. What should i do? :crying::crying:
Edit: Just wanna add that tried all button combinations to try to open up the phone but nothing seems to work, I don't think my pc can read it either. I might just try to replace it using my warranty if i can't find a solution asap.

I've been using Cyanogenmod 13.1 (rooted) and I decided to flash a ROM with Nougat. I flashed lineage-14.1-20170320-nightly-d802-signed and open_gapps-arm-7.1-mini-20170325 and everything worked fine except I didn't have SuperSU. I tried flashing SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815 and when I tried to boot into system I got this screen (with the LG logo below) http://i.imgur.com/O7vOtab.png I tried many methods like this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 and this https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/lg-g2-unbrickable-fix-real-hard-brick-t2904404 to no avail. In Linux when I used the ls /dev/sd* command in the terminal the phone wouldn't show up and later in Windows I got the PC to recognize the phone as Marshall USB Composite Device 9006 http://i.imgur.com/a5WHV9P.png and in Disk Management the phone partition shows up un-initialised http://i.imgur.com/XaVKIu7.png . Help I don't know what to do now. Tell me if I should provide more information.
I had the exact same problem. Then i found a solution. Just dont flash the normal Supersu, you need to flash the Supersu BUMPED file. Just go in recovery, press 10 sec the power button to be sure the phone is off, then hold volume down and power button until the logo appears, then release and press again (fast) then choose yes, yes. Just flash the Bumped and if recovery asks to do root choose NO.

Yeah Bad same Problem, turned off and it went on, then again bootloop. But if you press the power button long enough then its completely off. In cyanogen mod i had Problem that i couldnt get into recovery with power button+volume down.
So you should flash kdz, get oneclickroot for LG g2, then autorec lollipop to get recovery. Then flash Rom + gapps + The bumped file.
If you dont know how to flash kdz, you can ask here. I will help
Good luck

Yeah Ok. When I wanted to turn It off, I just pressed the power button until the screen went black and the logo came again but after 2-3 sec the screen went black again, then it was off (just hold power button for 10sec)
Try that when your phone keeps restarting

Get the lg mobile support tool, install it. Then open and connect your phone via download mode, it will find the phone and download the kdz for it. That should work.
If it doesn't install automatically, click on additional options then click on set upgrade error back, or something like that.
Before all that install the driver from
