Hey, My phone (LG G2 D802) is rooted ofcourse and I tried a few guides but none of them is working for me.
I tried for example to install the custom recovery through ROM manager, the app says that the version of my recovery is what I installed but then when I click on "get into recovery" it gets back to the regular lg g2 recovery.
any ideas for solutions?
I do have the same problem. Using autorec it successfully installs recovery and I can boot into it, but it bricks my system.
I use autorec to install twrp but if i want to go in recovery mode i use quick boot or similar (found them in google app store) and twrp run correctly.
if i want to go manually,old recovery appears,click yes and yes (erase data and confirm) and my g2 go on twrp.
can some1 explain this?

i purchased a G2 from someone that had twrp already installed. I read some forums and it said all i had to do to use CWM was flash it on there and it would take over... but thats not what happened. Ive flashed CWM about a dozen time, Rom manager shows that i have both recovery and it still boots to twrp and did not override it as i read. Even the twrp website state to uninstall you simply flash a new one.. its not working
ATT G2
How did you install CWM? I had to attach it to my computer and use ADB to get it to install.
you need to flash it with something other than rom manager. either find a flashable zip of the CWM and flash in the TWRP or find an image of the CWM and flash with adb, or you could use something like flashify but I would go the other routes before flashify or the likes.
Thanks got it working
While trying ti install CM 11 from TWRP i managed to brick the phone. I dont want to waste time sharing the details unless it's need to solve the problem. The main thing is that my phone is now stuck at the LG logo. Previously i was running the CM 10.2 Stable Build.
How can i get back to working condition? Either CM or Genuine LG Rom, I just want my phone to be up and running.
Please Help. I am really scared at this moment.
You don't share any details so I have to guess...
Enter recovery like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifi-ArGeTzQ , restore your Backup or flash another ROM, done.

I can enter both the modes shown in the video.
The thing is i was running CM 10.2 with a TWRP installed of version 2.6.3.2. I downloaded the CM 11 and went into TWRp to flash it but it couldnt flash the CM11. Then after searching the net i found out that TWRP 2.6.3.3 or higher is required to install CM11. The problem is that i wiped my dalvic, data, cache and system and did not keep a backup. So when the Cm11 wont install i was stuck in the TWRP as i didn not have the 10.2 rom file in the phone.
Then downloaded the TWRP 2.6.3.3 and also a CWM zip (just in case). Using ADB i tried to update the TWRM but still some other error shows up. Tried installing the CWm still some error shows up. i tried installing again and this time the recovery asked me to install superuser (though i was rooted). I selected YES and after that i am boot looping in the lg logo.
Anyways thats basically what happened. Now how do i get further and make my phone work again?
Please help brother. I am in deep trouble.
Thank You
Man... always keep a backup, you know, just in case
Shouldn't be a problem at all. You have ADB access right? So here is TWRP 2.6.3.4 those are flashable ZIPs.
Push the file, flash with recovery, reboot to recovery again and you should be on 2.6.3.4. Then flash CM11 and you are good to go...

So you can't enter the recovery like shown in the video? And the command adb reboot recovery doesn't work either?
At this point your only option is to return back to stock and start over but with a recovery from the link I provided in the other thread.

Ok then i will follow this process and hopefully be successful in getting my phone up and running.
Thanks for the help. Downloading 2Gb will take some time. So will post the result tomorrow.
Regarding rooting and installing custom recovery again, i will do that later. For now i just want my phone alive.
Anyways Thanks again everyone for the helpful information
Try getting to download mode right now. Because if you can't get to download mode you can't use the back to stock method
from my Note Thrizzle
Thanks everyone for the help and support. I have successfully reverted back to Stock LG Firmware.
I have some questions.
1. Do i have root access anymore?
2. Is my previous custom recovery still in my system?
3. If no for both then please help me with the appropriate article to root, install custom recovery and then install CM11, as my previous recovery was not able to install CM 11.
Thank You
I have installed android 5.0.2 Cynagenmod.
I tried to go back to cloudy g3 2.1 ( previously installed but no backup) via philz recovery.

Hello, community!
I've successfully rooted my LG Magna LTE (H520G) using Kingroot and then replacing it with SuperSU via @Mr.W0lf's script.
I wanted to install the Xposed framework, so I booted into recovery mode, using Power+VolDown, as usual in LG devices, but instead of going into the recovery menu, the Android with the spinning polygons popped up, and then the phone rebooted into a factory-reset state, having to download and configure everything from scratch again.
Did I miss a step here, or does the rooting method change the recovery-boot shortcut in some way?
I think, nothing changed..
I had always the same problem with my magna.
Now i have twrp and working xposed, so you can just flash twrp.

Thing is, when I tried to flash TWRP, the phone factory-reset itself, so I can't install TWRP via recovery reboot
The stock recovery factory resets. That's normal.
Try installing twrp through adb or through the twrp install app.
I am on 6.0.1 CyanogenMod13. I haven't done a whole lot root-wise but just today I was looking to get something from xposed and it turned out I didn't even have it installed, so I downloaded it and installed it but needing to flash the .zip I tried to boot into TWRP recovery. Somehow it got uninstalled or something because I could only get into the LG stock screen asking if I wanted to wipe everything. So I tried to install TWRP using Flashify, I installed and on the reboot it gave me a "Can't Enter Recovery Or Update" and some more things about it on the top left above the boot logo. I can't do anything recovery-wise. I'm looking to sell my G2 but I want to make it stock or at least a clean install and I can't do any of that. What can I do??

This got me down to 4.4.2 but when trying to install TWRP it gives me the same Boot certification error and I can't
EDIT: I used AutoRec on 4.4.2 and I have TWRP working!
