Help Download Mode won't work! - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, so I have a Sprint LG G2 (LS980). I haven't used it in awhile so I flashed it to ZVE (Latest KK release.) via LGFlashTool. Well, I rooted via Stump Root, then I tried flashing a recovery via Flashify. It was Loki'd or anything, just the standard recovery.img from TWRP 2.8.6.0. This is where things started going bad. Recovery did not boot, nor did the ROM (for whatever reason), so I went back and tot'd ZVE again. When I booted up this time, I found a guide on how to flash the ZV7 aboot so I wouldn't need a patched recovery anymore. When I flashed this customer aboot, I also flashed the TWRP 2.6.3.3 (first version for G2 that was loki'd). I rebooted and all I got was a fastboot error...booted into TWRP and I had 2.6.3.3 TWRP, so I installed latest TWRP 2.8.6.0 inside recovery and now I can't get my ROM to boot anymore. I've tried numerous times to flash different firmwares for different releases on the LS980, but none of them overwrite my aboot. Download mode also does not work anymore. I'm lost at what to do. I have access to TWRP, but that's it. I want to get it back onto ZVE stock and I'll leave it at that if I can get it fixed.

(Use autorec app to downgrade bootloader and flash recovery. Flashify does disasters on G2.)
Flash blastagator bumped recovery and reboot recovery.
Flash dorimanx kernel and reboot recovery.
Flash the attacked zip and reboot to system.

D801 stuck on 20 bootloader, trying to flash 30b and stock rom

I decided to check on CloudyG2 LP which requires 20 bootloader which went find. I decided to flash back to stock LP which requires 30b bootloader. After flashing back to stock (30b bootloader and stock zip file) I am stuck at T-Mobile boot screen. It seems like 30b bootloader isn't flashing but I didn't get any errors in TWRP when flashing it. Any suggestions?
Download Mode says 'secure boot error'
I can get into TWRP
I can flash the CloudyG2 rom again and it boots.
I have tried download mode and the LGFlashTool with the kdz as well as the flash tool with the TOT and they both fail.
Did you flash just bootloader or the whole bootstack zip? I would flash the whole stack just in case. We're you on stock lp before cloudy lp and did you make a backup? If you have one, restore it, it should have all the partitions working properly.

Can't flash recovery

So I have the AT&T Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 and I flashed a file through Odin and got the bootloader unlocked. If that's what that unlocked lock replacing the bootlogo was supposed to indicate. Then I rooted it, same way, flashed SuperSU through Odin. Then I tried flashing a custom recovery for the phone which seems to be a lot btw. And none of them works, I tried over 30 recoveries none of them work. I tried Odin, flashify, TWRP manager. None works, even tho TWRP has official support for the phone there is no way I can get it working on my phone. PhilZ worked with Flashify but when I rebooted the phone it said "unauthorized software" and would get stuck on the boot screen until I flash the stock recovery back through Odin.
So how am I supposed to get the recovery working? I'm on 4.4.4 btw. And I want to move to CM12.
I heard about Safestrap but also heard that not all roms will work with safestrap. Is that true?
Can I not just flash TWRP through Safestrap and use?
no, try goldeneye.

no custom recovery after flashing UHOJ4 bootloader

Hi,
I had several problems with custom rom, so I went back to stock ROM (latest MOB version) to start everything new.
Now I got the problem that it is not possible to flash CWM or TWRP again (tried different versions to flash with odin). I also tried to get back to UHOL2 bootloader and modem, bootloader is now UHOL2 but also custom recovery not working.
Any ideas how to get TWRP working again?
Thx
Jürgen
Can you root it?
Then you might be able to use flashify to flash the recovery.img

Uncheck auto-reboot before flashing TWRP trough Odin.
used CF Auto root - Phone Info says that root is working
which recovery.img should I try - CWM or TWRP doesn't matter for me
TWRP. CWM is outdated.
Uncheck auto-reboot before flashing TWRP trough Odin and removing battery was the solution!
Thx
Selecting auto reboot after flashing twrp causes the stock recovery to overwrite twrp and this is why the phone should be booted into twrp right after flashing.

2.8.70 works fine on roms but not for later ports .( see multiple posts)
If you need a later twrp .
Flash 2.8.7.0 then through TWRP flash later TWRP zip.

When u flash new TWRP first time ,backup your efs (imei,modem).
Second with TWRP 2.8.7.0 u can only flash stock Samsung rom that have aroma support.
Only TWRP 3.2.3.0, this is the latest can flash Oreo ,pie ,nougat roms without issue. But remember u can't flash Samsung roms with this and u have to go back to twrp 2.8.7. Then go back to 3.2 if u wanna flash pie ect roms
Hi all
I can successfully flash twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4.img.tar and boot into recovery.
But later TWRP,s dont boot.
JJEgan says to flash 2.8.70 and if you need a later twrp flash 2.8.7.0 then through TWRP flash later TWRP.zip.
Question is where can i get a zip of the latest TWRP. The official releases are either img or tar
Thanks

The Twrp are always .img.tar or .img or even apk from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.twrp.twrpapp. Anyway, i flashed twrp 3.2.3.0 from 2.8.7.0 ( the same one you had ) using Odin 3.11.1 without a single problem! Mybe the problem is just the Odin's version you used, have a look here too to better understand https://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-install-twrp-recovery-using-odin/. I hope you can solve it, good luck.
Thanks
When using 2.8.7.0 to flash latest TWRP.img, did you flash to boot or recovery? I get those choices after i select the file to flash. I assume recovery, right?
************ - -UPDATE - -*****************
Flashed img to recovery. All good, said flashing successful . . .but
Tried to reboot to new recovery but got the same boot loop.
Flashed 2.8.7.0 again using ODIN and 2.8.7.0. booted up just fine.
Re flashed 3.2.3.0 from 2.8.7.0. Again the same boot loop
Went back to 2.8.7.0 using ODIN. Booted up.
no idea what to do next
Thanks
I have same issues towards my hlte, twrp ver release later than what you indicated causes recovery boot loops, only 2.8 works. I cant even install custom rom due to unupdated twrp support.

You need to read first.
TWRP cannot flash Aroma based roms after 2.8 as per multiple posts .
Later android based roms use later TWRP 3 versions all posted .
