Hey, so I rooted my D802 a while ago, and installed TWRP using autorec, and all was going well.
today I received an ota, and against my better judgment , I clicked install, so of course it booted into TWRP and not stock recovery, and it couldn't flash the update, I rebooted the phone and it still booted back in TWRP!!, formatted, system, data, dalvik, and cache, then reboot, same thing, the phone keeps going back to recovery, apparently the command to update (boot into recovery) has been issued to the bootloader, and I have no idea how to cancel it, any ideas?
does anyone know where to find the temporary downloaded file from OTA? maybe flashing it manually through TWRP will fix the issue
thanks
this page helped, I typed the code and viola ,it works, thanks guys

Hi all,
After holding off on the kitkat bandwagon for a while, I decided once the OTA was available that I should just do it.
Background - this is a D802 european model with root on stock 4.2.2 firmware. I also have TWRP 2.6.3.3 installed.
Prior to proceeding with the update, I made a backup of the phone and rebooted the phone a couple of times to make sure everything was okay.
After that, I then clicked install on the OTA and the phone rebooted. After rebooting it has been constantly going to TWRP. I have tried wipe dalvik, wipe cache, restore backup, restore factory settings, reboot to system but nothing works.
Also, trying to get into download mode just boots into TWRP. When I try to do a adb sideload, the device just shows up on the PC as LG-D802 and no drivers are found for the device so I am not able to install a new firmware or can't try to go back to stock either.
Please help!

I updated using this guide:
http://www.droidviews.com/update-att-lg-g2-to-android-4-4-2-kitkat-without-losing-root-and-twrp/
All was well until I got a message for the OTA update mentioned in the post below and allowed it. I know, stupid.

So now my phone just boots into TWRP recovery and nothing seems to get me out of it. I've cleared the cache, I've wiped the phone, I've reinstalled the Zip. Everything just reboots me into TWRP. Is there a way out of this without flashing back to stock?
Sprint LS980 in an odd state after trying to flash CyanogenMod 12.1
Ok... so I got two of these Sprint LG G2's. I was able to successfully flash the first one with a minimum amount of problems considering I was just learning how to do it.
This second one is a problem though. Here's what I did:
I tried to root but it could not due to the version of the Sprint firmware on the phone. I did the TOT stock flash to get it back to stock. That worked fine.
Then I was able to root it via ioroot. Once rooted, I installed FreeGee and tried to install TWRP, that didn't seem to work, so I installed CWM Recovery. I did option two on this thread to try to get the loki stuff installed using openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-ls980. That "installed" and I was able to boot into it. I installed cm-12.1-20151125-NIGHTLY-ls980 (same one I used on the other phone). That would not install via CWM and gave an error about not being able to lokify (or something like that).
So I said, OK, I must have done something wrong, so I tried to redo stock flash again. That acts like everything works fine LGFlash does it's thing (using LS980ZVA_01.TOT), but the phone boots up and does not seem to finish the install process. The LG logo comes up and not the Sprint screen that I would expect. I can do this over and over again and the results are the same whether I let it sit for an hour or 10 minutes after flashing. So now, the phone boots, but I can't do anything with the touch screen, and will then go into a reboot loop (getting into the OS but rebooting shortly after). I CAN get into CWM where I can wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition. After I do that, the phone will boot and will let me interact with it, but after a short time (a few minutes I think), it will reboot again and be in the same state it was before I went into CWM. I tried to do a factory reset in settings. It would say that two reboots would occur, but then nothing happens.
I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to go from here. I don't think that it's an unrecoverable brick, but heck if I know how to fix it.
In between reboots, ADB does see the device in ADB Devices, but shows that it's offline, so I can push an APK to it.
Here are the options that I get in recovery mode:
Reboot System Now
Apply Update From External SD Card
Apply Update From Cache
Apply Update from ADB
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
Ok.. well.. I downloaded and flashed ZVE and it seems to have greatly stabilized the phone. However, it seems that I have lost the ability to do download mode and recovery mode. I can still get into the device through ADB, but ioroot no longer is able to root the device, so I can't install any recovery. There is a system update available to install, but didn't want to do that unless I'm good an stuck in this mode.
I also don't seem to be able to enable the cellular service. I don't know if the update it wants to install would fix that or not.
Edit: I can still do ADB reboot recovery and get into recovery mode with these options:
Apply Update From External SD Card
Apply Update From Cache
Apply Update from ADB
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Edit2: I was able to root with Stump. FreeGee won't run on ZVE, so not sure what to do from here. The phone does not work at all. None of the phone info is listed in About Phone. No IMEI or anything.
Edit3: I have been able to get TWRP installed and can boot into it. I have also verified that I can get into download mode now. I'm very concerned about my EFS info though. I did back it up, but not to the PC, so effectively I have no EFS backup and no way to recover the IMEI information. Not cool...
I've decided to unlock bootloader, get a custom recovery and root my new LG G6 H870, so I've downloaded Melina TWRP v321 and Magisk v16.
Unlocking went well, then I downloaded drivers, unlocked debugging, "adb reboot bootloader" -> "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" -> unplug usb -> boot into twrp by pressing volume down + power (with a tap) -> some weird screen about encryption popped up, but I clicked through -> and then I proceeded to install Magisk straight away, cause this guide said it'd not let TWRP stick if I didn't. After that I tried to boot into system and start the real fun. But it booted me back into TWRP. Again and again.
From there, I've tried Wipe -> Factory Reset, Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Repair File System for Data and System, Wipe -> Format Data, Advanced -> Fix Contents, but it all ends with twrp boot... I'm completly lost at this point. I've flashed/rooted a few phones before, but this one... it's a real nightmare.
I've also tried flashing a stock kdz (the filename is "H87011i_00_EEO_GB_OP_0108.kdz" for anyone wondering) through LGUP and redoing this stuff, but I end up with the same result. Please advise how to get it working.
Did you use uppercut when you flashed the kdz file? This is needed to successfully flash back to stock.
Seems it didn't work correctly.

Yes, I did flash through Uppercut (v1).
Since this thread started I flashed it once again, but this time I tried installing official TWRP v321. There was no weird encryption screen, but there were a lot of msgs (when installing magisk or doing a backup, for example) about being unable to unmount /system because it was being used. I did manage to install Magisk though and boot up the phone, but then when I tried installing Xposed, the phone went into another weird loop... but this time, it would get stuck on LG screen and it'd start heating up very fast. It stops heating when I restart using volume down + power into recovery. But I'm once again stuck... this is incredibly annoying, are aall LG phones like that?
How you installing xposed?
Install it via magisk module.
I had no issue.
Unlocked BL
Flashed Zefie TWRP (most stable and backups work)
Flashed fulmics
Flashed Magisk
Wiped cache and dalvik.
Reboot.
Works fine and flashed this over 15 times now no issues ever.

Did you also have that weird encryption message when flashing Zefie TWRP? Could you be more specific about your way? As in, you wiped cache/dalvik only once or after every flash? Did you wipe anything else? And yeah, I've just downloaded Fulmics and I'm at the installation screen, but I clicked System Information and it says my Storage Size is 5417MB with 104MB free... it reads SDCard Size correctly though. Should I be worried?
Starting from fresh, out the box.
Unlocked bootloader.
Installed Zefie TWRP.
Then added fulmics zip to sdcard.
Flashed zip, followed on screen instructions.
Wiped dalvik and cache.
Rebooted.
Takes a few minutes.
Boots up and done.
Magisk was packed into fulmics when installed.
I do NOT touch xposed. Too many issues plus I need safetynet for Google pay.
Yeah, I pretty much flashed stock firmware back and then followed basicreece instructions, along with flashing Fulmics, but I've got the 'official' Twp (v321). And everything's working so far, but I didn't touch Xposed so far though since Fulmics had pretty much all I wanted from Xposed. Word of advice for future readers though: don't bother staying on stock, too many problems. Fulmics is basically stock, but with some really neat options, and a ton of bugs and problems less.
So, I've rooted my phone using magisk a while ago and its been working since that. Today I downloaded a system app uninstaller and wanted to remove chrome (ik im retarded) and then when I rebooted it bootlooped. I could go in TWRP and I wiped data, then rebooted and now I can't get in TWRP. I tried many things, now when I boot my phone it goes in fastboot instantly and I can't do anything. When I tried to flash TWRP it said error bad Image. Anyone can help ?
