oppo find 5 doesn't find recovery

hello, i have a big problem
Yesterday, i flashed new firefly rom and my phone doesn't enter in recovery.
I try to reboot into recovery with fastboot, trying to flash another recovery but it stucks on logo fastboot
When i try to enter in recovery, i find words in photo.
However i can enter operative system, and my objective is get root in fastboot and then enter in recovery. Is there a guide? thanks

problem solved.
If you would enter in recovery with latest firefly 3194, push volume down and shutdown buttons.
At the begin it seems phone stucks on boot logo oppo find but wait some minutes without press buttons and it automatically enters in cwm recovery.
Then at reboot, it stucks on that chinese words, to overcame them, I pressed shutdown button with volume down for some seconds, or only shutdown button and then starts.

where you able to get everything sorted?

I've tried every possible way to enter in recovery, and what i've just to do was only to wait more or less 100 sec. However it's strange why phone doesn't enter in recovery via fastboot. When i put commands on cmd, it continues stuck on fastboot mod despite cmd says "rebooting"

I guess i need to hold from flashing firefly

Yeah, got in same situation after firefly OTA update(prev. chinese version), though I got a brick LOL
This was introduced by the 2013.05.09 update(OTA or full ROM) and the trick is indeed to wait a bit more on that screen message, maybe a fellow from China help us understand what it says in that message.

The message u got is put by Oppo to overwrite the custom recovery image with the stock one.

Flashed a D802 on my VS980 Verizon G2

Alright like a idiot I downloaded a international rom and didn't pay attention...flashed in TWRP and went to reboot so it obviously doesn't work. Tried to use the Flashtool to revert back to the stock Verizon software and it throws the error of the Device Model is different. IMEI is right, BIN, DLL, SWV, SWOV all show the VS980 since I'm trying to flash that.
So have I killed it completely or is there a way to recover? Sure hope there is
I can get into the download mode still

Also appears that it boots into fastboot and can send fastboot commands via the command prompt

Wow this dropped quick...just putting this to the top so I can hopefully get it up and running quicker.

Please check the same thread about LG repair cost. It looks like you need to repair it. you have mismatch in model name in build.prop, so there is no solution as for now. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506208

Ya I saw that after this morning...was hoping it wouldn't come to that. Mine says rooted on the download screen so hopefully that doesn't cause a issue when I send it in.

have you tried pushing a .img using fastboot, as you seem to be able to get to it?

Hey man are you able to access recovery at all by holding down Vol down+Power, releasing it when the LG splash screen appears for a sec, and then immediately pressing it again? I saw someone a day or two ago was able to put a ROM on a flash drive and install it from there in TWRP.

Mine actually seems to be booting into fastboot when I hold down the power button and it reboots. I can't get it to turn off completely, I can get into download mode if I hold down volume up and power if it's plugged into the computer. If I hold down the power button it will reboot and seems to be in some sort of fastboot when it tries to power on

Makes sense and should be easy enough except that thread makes it out that the boot.img really wouldn't change the device model. Unless it contains it in the img file
Which .img file would I be pushing? The boot.img?

I guess it would be more like which one? Would I be able to just used the one from say CleanRom?

Wohoo! Finally got it up and going...thought for sure it was toast.
I flashed the boot.img through fastboot and then was getting "secure boot unsuccessful" on the screen when it tried to boot. Kept trying to get it into the recovery and it finally did so when it went to the splash screen about pressing the power it put me into TWRP.
I tried to restore the backup that I had stored and it started to but then turned off, I'm not sure if it was because the battery was so low or if it was just the jacked up file structure but it wouldn't get any father than the LG splash screen. The LED would flash green then blue and it would just sit there.
That was when I thought for sure it was toast, let it sit and charge for awhile and still couldn't get back into the recovery but was able to get into download mode. Flashed the stock software via LG Tools and it finally booted.
Not sure if anyone else will run into this issue but now it's documented lol

help a bro

What's the command input for the push
All I know is its the along the line of push/c:/(boot.img location)

It's more like "fastboot flash boot boot.img" you can't push it via adb, unless you're already in TWRP.

Will the phone boot normally so you can get to play store or it just won't boot at all? Are you using volume down and power, just making sure? Sometimes it can be finnicky like that.

ok i just tried it manually and the factory reset screen showed up, but when i pushed the power button twice the screen went black with the backlight on...

OK, try downloading quick boot from play store and TWRP from play store. Quick Boot will give you an option to reboot directly to recovery, try that first. Then, if that doesn't work, you can try running TWRP app and that allows you to flash a new recovery using the TWRP interface whole your phone is running. You may want to go to the TWRP website and download the most current version for your model first.
Edit: just use the TWRP app to install or reinstall the actual recovery you downloaded from the TWRP site linked below.

thank you i will try that now

The black screen with white lettering in the top left corner is the bootloader.
If you have adb you can download a new twrp recovery image and do a "fastboot flash recovery path_to_recovery\recovery_name.img" and then try rebooting into recovery. It should work fine.

This is what appears in the top left of the screen when the LG splash pops up for a split second and goes black if you were curious.

That being said, you need to push a working recovery onto the device. If you can get into android, then you can access ADB from there and push the working recovery. You should be able to find the latest version of vzwG2 twrp in the g2 general section.
If you can't get into android, then you're ****ed as far as I'm aware. However, if this is the case then you can send it into LG and they will fix it right up for you

I've heard some people say that LG just reflashed the phone while they left root on there. I completely formatted the phone so there was nothing left on it before I sent mine in just in case.

You can't access ADB unless youre in android or a recovery, and you are in neither. You would usually be able to access fastboot (similar to ADB) which is another safety feature so you dont get bricked, but from what i've tried in this state i haven't been able to get into either.
You can try to play around with the android partitions in QHUSB_BULK and potentially fix it if you restore a recovery or something along those lines. But like I had said, I had no success with that.
Your best bet is to send it format the device and send it into LG so they can reflash everything.

Same issue, fixed it today
I had the same issues with a non-loading boot loader & a non-booting ROM. Follow the instructions in the thread linked below to restore stock firmware, and then root, TWRP, and install a custom ROM afterwards. The link to the LG Flash Tools was not one that worked for me, but a quick google search will get you the right file (top 3 results proved fruitful for me).

Black screen on recovery boot

So I rooted my g2 then I used clockwork mod app to install recovery. Well I booted to recovery and it's just sets at a black screen. When plugged into a computer it pops up to format like 30 drives. I have tried the recovery batch file for cwm and it results in the same thing. Tried flashify and flashing twrp and still have the same thing. Please I have no idea what else to do.

Hello,
I am on VS98012B as well. I rooted with 'ioroot24' .. That all went fine. Now when I am trying to install a custom recovery (got botched the first couple times) ... now I can not get the phone to pop up the RSA fingerprint and when I try to boot into recovery using ADB commands or quickboot the phone just goes to a black screen and if it is plugged into the computer (windows 7) it pops up a bunch of different drives at me like endleesss was having. I could use and would appreciate some pointers!

I am getting this exact same problem, I used ioroot25, which also went fine. When I go to reboot into recovery I just get a black screen. When I boot into recovery with it plugged into my computer I also get Windows telling me that I need to format a bunch of drives before I can use them. I also get one drive that lets me open and it has a "images" folder in it, with a bunch of other files inside that. Not sure what is going on but any help would be awesome.

Seeing this exact same thing after going to a 4.4.2 ROM. I was coming from a 4.2.2 with TWRP 2.7 and now cannot get back in to recovery mode. I get just a black screen and also see the multiple drives popup when I plug in USB to the pc. I've tried flashing different recoveries with no luck. Hope a fix for this can be found.

Same problem but worse
I have this problem as well and have known that it needing fixing. Problem is the phone tried to auto-update to kitkat at night and now all i get is lg logo some commands in the top left then it tried to install via stock recovery. I can't get away from this as far as I know yet. I can't get to dl mode to just flash stock. I feel i might be completely boned. I tried pulling the battery ribbon to see if that would kick it out of this commanding it into recovery but I really don't know what to do at all at this point. Can someone help please or atleast tell me im boned so i can try to salvage. maybe do a warranty replacement. Thanks in advance

This thread will help with the "drives popping up", "black screen" etc..

For the ones with fastboot issue who can't enter dload mode:
download yor corresponding laf.img
Download this
extract it, put your laf.img inside(rename laf.bin to laf.img if needed), run "run this", you should be able to boot to download mode.

I was able to follow all of the directions in that post though it doesn't seem to have done the trick. I have left a post in that thread asking their opinion on things but idk if it will be answered since it is such a large post.
If you have any experience with these partitions, could you direct me to a way to stop the device from trying to run the OTA. This seems to be the largest problem as to why its not working since it pushes itself into recovery every boot, though it seems the recovery partition flash didn't take for some reason.
I am using 64-bit Ubuntu could that be an issue?

[SOLVED] OnePlus 2 won't boot to recovery...

I have tried flashing both TWRP and the original recovery through Fastboot but the phone just won't boot to neither recovery. If I try to boot recovery, the phone gets stuck to the first boot screen with white oneplus logo in the middle.
Im running OxygenOS 3.1.0 on my OnePlus 2 device. The phone has encryption but I can't remove it. There is no option in settings to remove the encryption and if I try to do a factory reset through settings, the phone reboots and gets stuck the same way when I try to boot to recovery.
I can still boot to my current ROM but I wan't to get rid of it. I can't think of any way to decrypt the phone and I think this recovery issue is encryption related. The phone booted fine to both recoveries before I encrypted the phone. Is there any way to remove this retarded encryption? I want the phone completely wiped clean and start fresh. I will never encrypt my phone again...

You should try second method in this https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...ck-guide-for-a-hard-bricked-oneplus-2.347607/
It will restore the phone back to original.
Hope this helped.

I solved this issue just now by using this OnePlus 2 unbrick guide from YouTube:
For me it didn't boot straight away to the recovery like at 2:16 in the video (my phone got stuck again to the OnePlus logo screen). I had to turn off the phone first and then boot again to make it work. Case SOLVED!
