[Q] Emergency help needed - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well I restored my back up of a rooted VS980 rom, 26A version. I did so because i honestly grew tired of the bugs with my LP rom i was using so i decided to return to stock and update to the 27A firmware. When I went to allow the download to install all it did was reboot to twrp recovery and now I cant flash any rom to get it operational, I for the love of god apparently dont even know how to enter download mode. Ive read its hold vol up and plug in but that does nothing but once again BOOT INTO TWRP recovery. I just want my cell back to stock with no root and ill make any needed mods as i see fit.
Ive tried to use the flash tool but even that requires a download mode which i can not enter, and it wont even display correctly for me anyway.... Any one have any advice?

[Q] Please help... D800 flashed to D802

So I am not sure what I did, but I was just trying to flash the Grievous ROM earlier and it would not work, just kept going to a black screen on start up even though I didn't get any errors when installing. I retardedly forgot to make a backup so I have nothing to go back to. I tried to go into download mode to restore through the LG tool, and amazingly somehow it now says my phone is a D802.
I can still get into recovery and download mode and haven't seen fastboot yet, but I can't get my computer to recognize my phone in adb or sideload while in the recovery menu... Not sure what to do. It sucks that this phone doesn't have removable SD.
Anyone got any ideas? I've looked through other threads of people who have had this problem and luckily(I think) I still haven't got to fastboot. I was thinking if I can just get the stock files on there I can flash it in TWRP without having to even use the LG Flashtool, but I am at a loss for how to get the stock ROM on my phone.
WHAT DO I DO?
Install the kernel for the d800. To hey your phone to be recognized in recovery you will need the proper drivers, try pdanet. Drivers

Okay I successfully got adb to work in the TWRP menu with the pdanet drivers, and I pushed the stock rom .zip to my phone but it won't let me flash it. Where do I get just the stock kernel?
Nevermind, got the ATT stock rooted rom from scotts site to push and install, which still gave me a black screen but afterwards but made download mode work, so got it back to stock! YAY!

Restore Recovery D801

Hello guys. I rooted my phone and i installed TWRP using the AutoRec app. Now in the past with my phone rooted only and with stock recovery if i want to get back to stock i used the LG Support Tool. But now that i installed the TWRP when i use the LG Tool and puts my phone to Download Mode i get an error. Secure Boot Error, Cause Certifications Verify and because of that i cannot enter download mode and i cant get back to stock. I have looked for ways to restore stock recovery because i believe the error is because of this but i cant find a solid tutorial. Every were i look people convince the OP to keep using custom restore or no one answer the question. So to be cleared the stock rom installed is 5.0.2 and it works i can use it and the TWRP also works i can use it the only thing broken is Download mode and i ant to restore stock recovery. T-Mobile LG G2 D801

Bit of a problem here.

I got my spare G2 today and have run into a bit of a problem with rooting it. The root process seems to have gone fine. It says I am rooted and I can use Root Explorer to remove bloat and such, but something seems to have gone wrong with the recovery. If I try to boot into recovery, I get an error message that says something about Secure booting error. It has some other info, but the screen goes black so quickly that I can't make out what it is saying. If I hold the power button down, I can reboot the phone as normal so it's not bricked, but without a recovery I can't do any custom Roms. I've tried various methods to flash a new recovery and they all said they were successful, but I still can't get into recovery mode.
Does anyone know what I did wrong or how to get around this? The phone came with firmware 4.4.2 26a if that means anything to your advice.
Thanks a million for any help.
Looks like your recovery gone. Flash stock Lollipop Kdz then root and install TWRP with Autorec from Google Play.
Thank you. Just did the TOT method to flash back to stock 26a so thankfully all is back to normal. Now i'm afraid to try it again because I don't know what went wrong. The ioroot version I have is an older version for 24a or backwards. That's the one I used for my original G2. So I tried using a different method (one click) for this phone and it was a mistake. Could I use the flash tool to kdz back to 24a and then root using the method I know or do I have to stick to 26a for hardware reasons?

Please help me get my S6 Edge Plus (SM-G928F) out of TWRP Recovery

Heyy guys, this is my first time posting a new thread
Unfortunately, my phone is stuck in TWRP recovery. When it was still working I downloaded Flashify. I don't remember what but when it restarted the phone, it stayed in TWRP recovery and never went back to normal. I tried wiping my phone several times and still won't go back. Then I pressed the option Change or Repair System File or something like that. But I put the wrong option on that menu and now it is completely stuck on the TWRP startup screen , I can't enter TWRP at all.
I tried everything that I possibly could. I even tried flashing a different version of TWRP and Philz Touch but still didn't budge. If y'all have any possible solutions, please speak up. My phone has been like this for about 6 days :crying:
I'm downloading the stock firmware of my model SM-G928F (G928FXXSBPIB). That's the only thing that I think that could possibly make it work. Do y'all think the same or is there something else I could do?
Go in download mode and flash that stock firmware that you downloaded.

Ok so now if you want to root your phone. first install twrp and make sure oem is unlocked. Then when you boot into twrp make sure you dont select that option at the start otherwise you will keep booting into twrp continuously. Next flash cf auto root and then go back into twrp and enable that option that was disabled before you rooted your phone. You should be fully rooted with no errors.

I'm panicking a bit and i'd really need help :(

Hello ! So i'm bit stressed now cause i never had an unpullable battery before on my samsung.
So i just got from my cousin a galaxy s6 edge plus, and i want to root it. so installed odin and flashed twrp-3.1.0-0-zeroflte.img.tar
However now it kept being on the samsung logo. So i had to e press and hold the Volume down and Power/Lock keys on the device for 10–20 seconds to power it off. But it keeps rebooting, and now, it's only a black screen with a blue led. I don't know what to do, i'd really need your help. Thank you I'm so worried gosh.
update 1: i tried to force shut down by pressing the buttons and it used to display the samsung and carrier logo then be stuck on samsung logo, but now it just shows samsung galaxy, turn off and the recent apps et return buttons blinking. Kinda scary. I'm waiting for the battery to discharge, hopefully it will work I need your help
The zerolte is for the S6 EDGE, you want the zenlte

You should be able to hold vol down, home and power buttons to get into download mode to flash it.
Use the power and volume down button to force reset and when it does quickly press all 3.
Thank you for your time ! i did as you said, i entered twrp recovery mode and performed a wipe, but i'm still in a bootloop ! any ideas ?
EDIT : but i installed the new twrp over the old one might it be conflicting ?
I went back to 3.0.2.0 and don't have a bootloop issue anymore, it may be the latest update giving the issues.
Ehhh going back to the 3.0.2.0 didn't work either. I have the TWRP menu, have wiped, but i'm still in a bootloop. :/ I'm happy cause it's not bricked but i still use my phone...any help appreciated guys :<
So are you using a custom rom?
You can enter twrp to install/wipe etc?
nope i'm on stock rom and yeah i can enter twrp and install and wipe !

Well you can download your stock rom for your model, mine is sm-g928r4 not sure what yours is but ya. Then use odin to flash the stock img and then use cf auto root to get root.

Just download the latest firmware for your smartphone (SM-G928x (Replace the x with your spessific model number on the back)) and your country from sammobile.com and flash it through odin. This should wipe your data and perform a clean reflash of the stock ROM. After that procedure it will take about 10 minutes to boot and it should be working again
sammobile is pretty slow is SamFirm okay ? And thanks i'l ltry this !
ok so i tried to flash the rom from sam firm for my SM-G928F SFR but it just shows up with a failed... any ideas ?
I had an issue trying to flash stock Rom back, I was trying to flash an older version and it failed, i downloaded the latest for my model and it worked. Are you sure you downloaded the right one?

I presume you ave the SM-G928F S6 Edge +. Just flashing TWRP will cause boot loop. Please see post and flash via twrp the section 12. This should stop the bootloop. Allways remember never turn of OEM locking if you have a custom recovery.
" If you only want a bootable system partition or readable data in TWRP:
Download dm-verity and force encryption disabler.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
** If your internal storage is encrypted, you will need to use adb sideload instead."
