Broken screen and it wont enter recovery - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I'm trying to boot into recovery
I'm pressing power and volume down, releasing power and pressing again when I see the LG logo. But it doesn't work. The phone just shows the Resurrection boot animation, and then powers off after a seconds.
Is there another way to get to recovery?

I figured out that I had installed a new Bootstack to be compatible with the Ressurection Rom. That bootstack uses another way of getting into recovery
pres and hold vol down and power, when LG logo appears, let go, and press vol up and vol down

[Q] Stuck in boot loop and can't access recovery

My phone (LG G2 Verizon VS980) reboots at the LG logo (in a loop) after I successfully flashed cyanogenmod 11 and I can't seem to access TWRP with the instructions in their wiki: With the device powered down, hold Volume Down & Power. When the LG logo appears release the buttons and then press them again. Then, press the Power button three times!
Any ideas how I can get into TWRP? I can't connect on adb.

Do you have download mode? You might have to use the flashtool to get out of this.

Bootloop + No recovery D802

I entered a bootloop. After getting past the LG logo, the SlimKat logo appears on the screen for 3 seconds or so before fading away. It repeats this process until I force the phone off by holding the power button.
I understand, by getting to Recovery Mode, I should be able to mitigate the issue; but no recovery mode is present. I have tried pressing every combination of the buttons, letting go upon seeing the LG logo, and pressing them again. The logo disappears, reappears, and fades away again.
Hi, try this combinaison: phone is shutdown, power+vol down. When first logo appear, release and press vol up and vol down ( not power) until menu reset appear. You will erase all your data, but it should work. Your problem is when the rom flash the recovery too.

Hello, I tried this combination but unfortunately it only bootloops.

[Q] Stuck at boot after Nandroid restore

Hi
I installed FluffyRom (which is based on Simple Rom) on my D802 and everything was ok.
I was not happy with the ROM so I did a Nandroid restore of my previous install which was BlissRom
After reboot I can see the LG logo, which then flickers a bit and fades away and then black screen.
If I connect to my Windows PC I can see the internal storage. If I long press the power button, something vibrates and if I tap the screen I can shut it down so I assume that the rom is running but I do not get the visuals.
I would like to have it working again, what can I do as i don't have an idea... the only thing I found out is that the baseband has been changed by the Simple Rom install ...
BlissPop need JB baseband:

Have you tried either of the following:
Download Mode
Power off your G2.
Hold Volume Up and plug your G2 into PC via USB cable, keep holding Volume Up until your G2 displays "Download Mode".
If in Download Mode follow this tutorial.
Recovery Mode
Power off your G2.
There's 2 possible options to access Recovery depending on your current Bootloader.
JellyBean Bootloader
Hold Power+Volume Down, when the LG Logo appears let go of Power+Volume Down and again hold Power+Volume Down.
KitKat Bootloader
Hold Power+Volume Down, when the LG Logo appears let go of Power+Volume Down and hold Volume Up+Volume Down.
Yes, to power off your phone, long press power button for 15sec.
Then enter recovery with vol down + power like @d00lz say.
(Hold Power+Volume Down, when the LG Logo appears relaise Power+Volume Down and press again Power+Volume Down.)

Need help! S4 can't go in recovery

Hello! When I power the device on the Samsung Logo appears for 1 second and then it turns off. I can go in download mode but can't in recovery. It just flashes again the Samsung logo and turns off. I tried to flash stock firmware via Odin. It was a success but again the same thing happened. Did I brick the device? Thanks!
When you flashed recovery, did you uncheck auto reboot and boot into stock recovery to perform a factory wipe before booting for the first time?
Does the rom boot?

The actual way to enter recovery is.
Volume up+home+power button
As soon as you see the Samsung logo..leave the combo then within a jiffy press the volume up+home button (no power button...NO POWER BUTTON!!!)
You will enter recovery.

the far simpler method is boot off, then hold volume up and power together (nothing else) until you see blue text at the top of the screen. at this point you instantly want to let go of everything, and that's it...
I've bricked my phone before with mobile Odin and it took out my recovery so I guess it's possible the OP might not actually have one.
@3mel, the stock rom combo is vol up + home + power button.
What you are reffering to is the custom rom combo. For some reason they are different.
