this is my spare Verizon LG G2
I'm stuck in a boot loop so when I try to flash CM through TWRP + OTG I get an error. After some searching, I found that someone got it fixed but updating TWRP. I noticed mines is out of date so I'm wondering how can I update it if I'm stuck in a boot loop? I tried downloading it onto a flash drive and flashing it via OTG but I get an error.
Any advice is appreciated!

Hello, I could us a little assistance. I was trying to install CM on my new Verizon LG G2 (VS980). I was able to root using ioroot, dump aboot.img, lokify CWM 6.0.4.4, loki_flash the recovery, and boot into CWM. When I tried to sideload the CM 10.2 image, I got some error about unable to lokify boot (it was missing /system/bin/loki.sh). It looks like the problem is that the pre CM 11 images have an old version of loki that fails regularly. It said it had aborted the installation, but something got totally hosed, as when I attempted to reboot, I got into a "secure boot unsuccessful" loop. I've made a verison of the CM 10.2 zip with the latest version of loki_patch and loki_flash from github, but I can't seem to get into recovery using the buttons (might be doing it wrong as the only time I went into recovery I just did adb reboot recovery) to try flashing another rom or return to stock. I can get in to download mode by holding up during boot, but I don't have easy access to a non-linux machine to use the lg mobile support tool. Is there any way to return to stock without a windows computer?
Edit:
Update, I was able to get back into recovery by unplugging the USB (apparently it doesn't like to boot into recovery if the USB cable is connected). Installed my patched CM 10.2 and everything worked like a champ.

how did you patch cm 10.2
My sister accidentally installed the OTA and somehow had TWRP. I tried flashing CWM over it after it got stuck in a boot loop because no file would flash through ADB Sideload, and it freaked out. I now get a "secure booting error", it won't back up, and when I tried a stock factory reset it just went to the same booting error. Does anybody have an idea of what I could do? I doubt I can ADB sideload without a recovery and there's no way to factory reset it. I only have access to a Windows 8.1 PC and Mac OS Mavericks MacBook. Any help is greatly appreciated; we've only had the phone a couple of weeks. T-Mobile LG G2 if it helps anybody.

I tried to flash CM11 on my VS980, but I just got stuck in LG logo bootloop. I managed to factory reset and get into CWM, but my PC refuses to recognize it as an adb device, and I can't mount USB OTG with CWM for some reason. I've tried various uninstalls/reinstalls of the drivers to no avail. What's my next step?
Recently flashed using incorrect twrp stock firmware don't know exactly what happened … please help.
its just stuck wont boot cant put it into download mode etc
Today, received a new update on my K20 for Pixel Experience. Updated it but upon reboot, the phone is stuck in fastboot. What can I do? My pc is not detecting the phone. Wanted to flash using MiFlash but the device is not recognized by the pc. Need urgent help.
I was able to boot into TWRP after I got stuck in Fastboot. If you manage to do that, try to flash Hasty kernel and you should boot

Yeah. I finally was able to boot into TWRP and sideloaded a new ROM after wiping everything.
