please help! d802 bricked-no download mode. no recovery. not hardware factory reset

lost my twrp after installing bootloader changer and then installing kk bootloader(for cloudy 3.3). (accidently marked install twrp inside the bootloader installation after already having the latest twrp installed)
phone restarts right after logo appears and seems to be unable to boot at all.
no download mode. no recovery. not even hardware factory reset is accessible.
im really lost here ! read all xda posts nothing works because i cant connect to
the phone from any pc. please help! i cant flash anything because i have no adb or any connection from the phone to the pc.
wont show up in device manager in any way(with the latest drivers installed) and wont show up on linux on /dev/sd*.
before the bootloader i had access to twrp and showed up just fine on my win 7.
problem solved!
was able to enter recovery mode by pressing pwr + vol-up release when logo appears and press vol-up + vol-down.

Lenovo A6000 plus on DU with a peculiar problem!!!

First of all, i'm a noob so please don't mind any technical mistakes.
I recently flashed RR on my device with TWRP, and all was working quite fine.
But then, I decided to try out DU, and flashed it. But my phone was stuck on the lock screen with a "com.android.phone stopped working" message.
I used ADB to wipe my data ( for if there were any conflicts) using : fastboot -w
My phone now is working fine, But i've lost root access, My phone DOESN"T BOOT INTO RECOVERY.. Holding vol+ and power just ends up in a screen with the RR logo( yes RR, even after flashing DU).
I've tried to flash TWRP using ADB again but it's not working.
ROM manager says I've got TWRP and CWM installed.
Also Kingo and Framaroot aren't working.
I would really want to get back:
1.Root access
2.TWRP
Some help will really be appreciated....
Press vol up+down and power button simultaneously, to access recovery.
I've tried that, my phone just shows the RR logo screen and nothing else.
Alternate method
dude you just need a pc with adb driver installed then go to bootloader mode by pressing vol- and power button, then using adb command write (fastboot boot recovery.img).
Here recovery.img is ur twrp recovery or other,then it will flash recovery.img in ur phone and automatically go into the (twrp) recovery.
(u need to copy recovery.img in ur adb folder before u write that command)
I have done that... It does flash twrp onto my phone..but my still doesnt boot into twrp...
then use another recovery, sevenmax twrp recovery is the best.

OP2 soft bricked, can't access recovery, not recognized by laptop

Hey,
Very strange query but here goes. Rooted phone a while back and installed CM13 along with recovery. Was trying to update TWRP{ by downloading .img from their website, went to flashing, selected the file and hit recovery. Said it was succesful so attempted to reboot. Plugged in to charge and was charging but when I tried to switch it on, it was stuck in Cyanogen Bootloop (blue alien stayed on the screen for 10+ minutes). Tried rebooting to recovery by hitting power + volume down and instead of booting to TWRP, it takes me to a Cyanogen recovery screen where I see the following options:
Cyanogen Recovery.
- Reboot system now
- Apply update
- - -apply from ADB
- - -choose from emulated
- Factory reset
- - -system reset
- - -full factory reset
- - -wipe cache
- Advanced
- - -reboot recovery
- - -reboot to bootloader
- - -Wipe system partition
- - -view recovery logs
Here's what I tried as troubleshooting. Tried to do a system reset, factory reset and wiped cache and tried to restart my phone but no luck. Still stuck in boot loop with CM logo. Tried to reboot to bootloader but the screen is stuck with the 1+ logo for about 5 mins so gave up on that.
Basically, right now I can't access anything on the phone, can't find any way to reinstall a ROM and when I plug it into my Macbook, it is not recognised. So I'm screwed sideways. I had TWRP recovery set up so I have no clue how this happened but can anyone please help me with this.
If data isn't at risk try the Qualcomm recovery tool one the oneplus forum it's by nammand bhal (definitely butchered the name) but all data is lost and resets the phone to out of box conditions locked bootloader and Oos 2.2.1 so this is often a last measure (tool is Windows but may have Mac variant and the file is quite big)
My suggestion is to try to boot to bootloader again and flash TWRP
hmm mac book I don't have much experience with those
If you have a Windows pc you can use adb or on Mac if it has it. Also when it come to being found by a computer in recovery it should but again don't have a mac
CM13 replaced your TWRP recovery with Cyanogen Recovery.
Try to boot into fastboot by holding volume up+ power buttons. If successfull, flash TWRP Recovery, boot into it, wipe everything and do a clean install of the ROM.
Macbook won't detect your device unless it is booted up, in recovery or in fastboot mode.
Doesn't it detect while you are in CM Recovery??
Try selecting Apply Update and Update from ADB. It should detect the device atleast now. If yes, try sideloading.

I knew I would regret getting that macbook at some point
Borrowed a friend's PC and was able to flash TWRP recovery. Was then able to boot into it and do a clean install. Ended up installing Oxygen OS this time. Do you know why this issue occurred so I can research how to prevent it next time.

Actually I don't think the issue was with the Macbook since I have unlocked, flashed custom recoveries and sideloaded ROMs on several devices including OP2, OP3, Nexus 5, etc on mine. It might have been some accidental flashing error, which unfortunately ended up bricking your device.

Sprint S6E+ and Twrp Issues

I'm hoping someone can help as I a seem stuck trying to reinstall Twrp on my Spring S6Edge Plus G928P phone. I previously did have twrp installed but needed to reinstall stock nougat after a failed lineage os install attempt.
After each attempt to install twrp with Odin and attempt to access recovery I get a blank/dark screen, and no default or twrp recovery screens.
As far I know I have done everything correct.
11. Have developer mode turned on and OEM Unlock and Usb debugging turned on.
2. Press Vol-Down, Home, and Power to access to download mode.
3. With odin, installing the latest twrp for Sprint; twrp-3.2.3-0-zeroltespr.img.tar
4. I have auto reboot turned off in Odin when flashing the twrp file.
5. After the successful flash, I then unplug from USB. hold Vol-down, Home, Power till it turns off, then immediately over to Vol-Up, Home, Power.
And then just on a black screen.
I am then forced to enter download mode again via Vol-Down, Home, Power and with Odin reinstall the stock image.
Is there something I'm missing?
Finally had success tonight. I'm not sure why but I think maybe there is an issue with installing the latest twrp version 3.2.3 directly.
I had success getting twrp 3.0.2 installed after first using CFAR and the twrp app. After that again with the twrp app was able to get the latest 3.2.3 installed.
Now hopefully I get the lineage OS installed for a test run.

why can't i get into TWRP

so i installed another ROM but for some messed up reason i cant access TWRP, cant do it via fastboot/ADB, cant do it via APP and cant do it with the vol down + power (yes i did let go of power when logo shows and hold down again.
i can get into the bootloader of my phone but no way to get recovery, i did try to reinstall the recovery one time but then it just gets stuck on LG screen. and no this time im not using lineage OS when i tried the idea before
i am running TWRP 3.3.1-0
vs995 Oreo stock rom
