I had the same issue. I believe it was a bad MD5. Although I know you can adb command from a PC, I had just recently deleted all of my drivers to get into a couple of nexus 7's.keep trying the volume down and power key the correlation seems to be if you can hit it right as it boots. I made it back to the factory data reset screen hit power through and dropped into TWRP.
I'm not sure how much you know or if you've ever had to boot through the factory reset screen but it does NOT actually reset your device rather is the push to your recovery.
Good luck,

I have done that sevral times now before it did go into that recovery twrp but not when I do it it goes into fastboot everytime , its like it has wiped twrp off the phone and no recovery , even used fastboot on pc to boot into it and it wont just goes back to fast bootscreen

you should be able to still get recovery -switch off phone,press vol down and power button at the same time as soon as you see the lg logo press the same combination again and hopefully it will go to a white screen with factory reset press the button I think 3 times and it will take you thru to twrp it may take a few tries but if u get the combo right it will work -if not you may have to go to the thread in xda g2 forum and im afraid learn how to restore your phone to factory state again which is a pain in the a**e but make sure you have all the necessary drivers installed as that will not work properly either-hopefully you can get back into recovery and restore your back up-good luck!

can not reboot into a custom recovery

I can not use my touchscreen!
For days, i am trying to solve this problem, but still can not, i am really upset about that, i need your help.
Firstly, my device was D802 international and os was 4.2.2
I rooted, installed a recovery, then installed a KitKat with Twrp.
After i wanted to turn on, i realised that the touch screen was not working properly. Actually it is so bad, that you can even not enter the menu of the phone with the touchscreen.
Then i connected a mouse to phone and went to settings. Yes, it was 4.4.2.
I had to install a new rom to solve the touchscreen problem, but i couldn't, what ever i did.
With the offline procedure of Lg flash tool (in download mode), the installation stopped every time in 15% depends on a problem of usb connection.
With the online method, it said that the batery is not enough to contunie. (But it was 100%)
Than wanted to install with Twrp or cwm. I rooted, flash the recovery but can not reboot into the recovery menu of twrp or cwm. When i press reboot into recovery, it directs me to the stock recovery of the phone. (In which there is a lying android with a red triangle above it's body)
I also tried adb(from the custom recovery menu) , pc was recognizing phone but the phone was not reacting to the commands i entered from pc.
I've searced a lot in google but couldn't find a solution.
Please help. What's the problem. What can i do?

You could try this. It worked for me, although, i had a different issue. My phone was not rebooting into recovery due to the "Secure Bootloader Error". Nevertheless, it installed cwm on my phone and i could boot into it. So, you can try it. It may or may not work

S4 stuck at RECOVERY BOOTING..... loop

I seem to be another victim of this issue. I was attempting to update my recovery (TWRP 2.6 installed) on my Verizon S4 via TWRP's app. It failed, so I figured I might try it from recovery. I attempted to boot into recovery, but it is stuck at the Samsung "custom" screen and the blue "RECOVERY BOOTING......" text is in the top left corner. I can leave the device alone for several minutes and it never goes into recovery. It does get very hot though, and occasionally it will reboot on its own. If I hook it up to my PC and then put in the battery, it will vibrate as if it is going to boot, then it vibrates again in 3 seconds and does this endlessly with nothing coming up on the screen. Without being able to get into recovery or have my desktop recognize the device, I'm not sure what to do. Any ideas before I chuck this brick?

Are you able to get into download mode (volume down, home button, power)? If you're able to, the device is not bricked and, using Odin, you can update TWRP to 2.8.4.
I've found that the app isn't working all that well. For the last few updates I've had to use Odin to update TWRP.

Ah ha, you are correct. I actually tried a variation of this (I think with volume up?) but it just attempted to go into recovery again. At the download screen I just told the phone to boot into the OS and all seems well. I'll look into updating TWRP via Odin and see if I have any joy, but at least I have a working phone again. Thanks for the help.:good:

When you update, do NOT try to use TWRP 2.8.5.0. It's bugged on the S4. Use 2.8.4.0 instead.

Thanks, good advice!

Looks like my recovery is toast. Doing some research, I never used Odin as my phone had the old MDK baseband. Sites tell me not to use Odin, so I followed the instructions on TWRP's site using Terminal Emulator and 2.8.4.0: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/181 Everything seemed to go well, so I attempted to reboot into recovery, but now I get some warning/error about unauthorized software, turn off your phone and take it to Verizon, etc.
Sounds like I need to try again, but I'm not sure what my options are now.

I didn't even see you had a Verizon S4 until you mentioned it. Verizon encrypts the bootloader as a matter of course, and thus installing TWRP is not possible. You should however be able to restore the official firmware with Odin, and from there, follow the root guides at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-verizon to get yourself back up and running.

mine get to the point where i select volume up, i see the android bot and message do not turn off target, and it shuts down. what do i do?

LG G2 D802 brick problem (I tried different solutions)

Hello everyone!
I really hope I can find help here. I wanted to install Cyanogenmod 13 on my LG G2 D802 32GB. In the end I think I bricked my phone. I want to mention that I already searched for help on the Internet and tried many tutorials, but nothing helped.
First, I rooted my phone using this One click root method (before, I tried doing that other ways but it didn't work). So far, so good.
Then, I installed TWRP via Autorec. And here came the first problem. I booted into recovery mode and then the phone wouldn't start anymore. I started getting "Security error" along with Lg logo, when I wanted to turn on the phone. Actually I can't remember if I wiped everything in Recovery mode before or after getting this error, but I did anyway. Then I didn't get this security error message anymore, just stuck with lg logo.
Anyway I was still able to get into recovery or download mod, so I tried installing CM. But I couldn't acces my phone memory through PC and I didn't have CM installer zip on the phone. I tried copying CM installer into the phone using ADB push command. It did copy, it said it succesfully installed but since then every time I turn on my phone Lg logo just blinks for a fraction of a second and the phone will not turn on. The screen is black, but it remains "on" (there's nothing on it but you can see it's not totally turned off).
After that I tried every tutorial I could to install CM or stock ROM. I tried downloading different LG firmwares, including one found on a page where I had to enter my IMEI. But it's always the same problem: when I use LG Flashtool ( 1.0.54 ) it gets stuck. After clicking on System Upgrade I'm not asked about the language (as tutorials suggest), but it just opens LGMobile Support Tool, which says that my system is up to date.
OK, I think that's all I can say. So, the main problem is that I cannot use LG Flashtool, which is neccessary to install stock ROM in all the tutorials I have seen. Of course, I would like to install CM 13 still, but now th emost important thing is to get my phone to work again, even on stock system.
I hope we can solve this problem. Thank you all in advance!

Can you boot in download mode?

Thanks a lot. I followed the instructions in the first post on the first site that you linked, using kdz file. Everything seemed to go well and I was already happy, but... It seemed that the stock flashed (on the computer it said that the installation was correct, on the phone the screen showed Update Software and it went to 100% percent), then the phone restarted and started updating apps for Android. And that is normal I suppose. But then, after it finished, it turned off, turned on and started installing those apps again. After that it turned off. When I wanted to turn it on, it showed me LG logo and then android logo for a fraction of a second. Then sometimes it would turn off completely and sometimes turn on again and show logos again. I assume that's what is called bootloop. So I followed the tutorial which said I should do factory hard reset. I entered the screen (power+vol down buttons), confirmed two times that I want to do the reset. It said the reset will start automatically, but nothing happened. The phone just turned off immediately and the same situation with logos (Bootlooping?) appears. So the problem now is that I cannot factory reset the phone.

I'm having a similar problem on my vs980 except I can't access recovery anymore but everything else is the same.
Edit: I actually can access recovery

You messed up pretty bad before you fixed a problem, you created another.
Have you tried to go back to stock using downoad mode and kdz?

OK, well, this is strange. The phone is working again, but actually I have no idea why I downloaded the tool from your link, installed it and ran. Then, following the yt tutorial, I went to the step where I was supposed to "look and remember the disk number that have so many partitions". I didn't anything there, though. And then, all of the sudden the phone started updating Android apps and then turned on as after factory reset. Weird, but it's working fine
By the way, can someone post a link to a tutorial on how to install Cyanogenmod 13 on LG G2 D802 32GB? I would still like to install it, but I want to avoid all the problems that I had now. So is there any good step by step tutorial that I could use to install CM?
Anyway, thanks all for help

Sure.
Download the rom from cyanogenmod website and put it on your phone memory.
Download Gapps from opengapps.org and place on the phone memory.
Go to recovery.
Make a full nandroid backup( all the partitions) , wipe all except internal storage.
Flash the rom along with the gaaps zip.
Reboot.

SM-G950F won't boot, hard bricked?

I had to reboot my device due to problems with my speaker. Now i'm not able to boot anymore.
I'm only able to get into ODIN Mode, and flashing new FW or TWRP does nothing. It'll flash correctly, but as soon as it sends the reboot command the device powers off and does not boot, and no, it does not reach the "Galaxy s8, powered by android screen".
It does not want to power on, and only responds to the odin button combo, can't boot into recovery either since nothing works.
I was running the latest version of Renovate Ice if that matters.
I've searched trough some other threads, but it seems like i'm the only one that's having this problem.
Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Edit 1: I've tried flashing both AQK7 and AQG5. Both flash fine, but as soon as odin sends the reboot command to my phone, it turns off and does not turn on.
Auto Reboot is ticked. Same goes for any version of TWRP, it will flash, but when it has to reboot the device turns off and does not turn on. There's nothing on the screen, its completely black and the only thing that does work is Download Mode. I've also tried ereasing nand, and repartitioning storage. Both seem to have 0 effect. As stated in one of my replies, i was running the latest build of renovate-ice with magisk, no other mods, or themes installed.

Im a bit confused - you can only boot into download mode (not into twrp?) and the phone is in bootloop? Have you flashed anything (mod?) before or activated a substratum theme which could cause this?
The only thing I can think of is a) you delete in twrp file manager the corrupted file, if there is something like this or b) a twrp restore from a backup. Boot into download mode and then do not press vol up to go into odin mode but press vol down to reboot - then immediately press the combo for twrp and you will get to the recovery. This helped my s8 many times when I was in a bootloop and couldnt boot up twrp

Thanks for the reply! Other than using the Renovate-Ice rom, and running magisk the thing was pretty much stock. wasn't messing around in twrp either. Its not stuck in a bootloop either, it just refuses to do anything other than go in and out of DL mode. The phone does not respond to any button imputs other than DL mode. As stated in the OP it does not boot at all, just a black screen. i've already tried to reflash a stock FW and TWRP, but that does not seem to work...

try the method I did - this is the last thing I could think of, before reflash the whole phone with odin

Doesn't work sadly, but thanks for the help anyways!

but you havent installed Viper4Arise or anything like that?
Because of this my speaker also stopped working a few weeks ago

if you can get into download mode then get into download mode and leave phone, then download samsung smart switch for your pc (older version like 4.1.17022_20 from here http://www.filehorse.com/download-samsung-smart-switch/29268/ that allows phone based recovery), once installed open it, then click on more at top right, (do not update the software if you get a prompt) select emergency device recovery...., then click on right tab (device initialisation) and fill in your phone details etc., connect your phone (in download mode) and follow the process, maybe it works, you'll need to root and install TWRP again but thats no big issue.

I've tried this just now, and it still gives me the same result, it goes trough the process, but as soon as it has to reboot it doesn't boot anymore.
Thanks for the suggestion though!
