So i just did the new update on my V20 and it sent me straight to TWRP and i cant get out of it. It always boots into TWRP. What can i do? ive already tried a factory reset and restoring my back up and nada. Help please.
Its now looking for stock boot image which on yours is currently modified with system rooted.
Try using lgbridge to repairs your boot image or if you have it flash the stock boot image using fast boot command or do a factory reset while in twrp then flash entire stock image with lgbridge.

Yeah none of those work. The OS is setting off some sort of flag that states it must go into recovery and wont stop going into recovery until that flag is changed which I assume is done by the update. I tried updating with UPPERCUT/LGUP and it errors out at 4%. So right now it's still stuck
It didnt install the update
type
Code:
fastboot erase fota
from bootloader and see if it boots after that.
This will for sure fix you up...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/how-fixed-bricked-lg-v20-t3501310
listen to me2151
delete fota and then pull battery and reboot.
ota's downloaded to the fota folder will cause endless twrp loop.
freeze ota in system/privapps to avoid this again.
Sorry to post on here, but maybe we can get a few tips from each other.
Im also stuck at TWRP. I installed a ROM and went back and forth between both ROMS. After about 4 times of going back and forth between ROMS, my pattern didn't recognize on boot with my original backup and daily. I tried my pattern over 10 times and it wiped everything on me. The strange part was I was swiping my pattern 100% and it failed. Also, my tries were going up and down. It would say I have 6 tries left before my phone wipes, then I would stop anjd turn the screen off, and the screen would say I have 3 tries left, then 5 tries left. My tries were inconsistent, and it finally wiped everything.
I am now stuck on TWRP with no luck of restoring. I flashed the vs995 boot image and system image and it goes back to TWRP. I factory reset, wiped everything, made sure the system folder was clean, then flashed both images again and the same thing, no luck.
I also tried to restore with LGUP, but keeps stopping at 9%. I extracted the dll and copied it into the common folder and I get the same thing.
Error: Error Code = 0x2000, Flashing Fail
When I plug the phone into my computer it shows us996 and not vs995. Strange.
Any help would be amazing.
EDIT: Figured it out!
So, I extracted the dll file from the kdz file and I had to replace it with the one in the common folder. My error was not renaming the file, so the LGUP would stop at 9%. Make sure you pull the file, rename it, remove the old file from the folder, and flash on LGUP.

So I am fairly new to rooting and didn't know that it's not a great idea to do an OTA update while you're rooted. So I did just that and when prompted to restart the phone, it did and loaded directly in to TWRP. I tried to just reboot from there and it kept going back to TWRP. So I tried to recovery from a backup, same thing, right back to TWRP. Also, I can't get into download mode. What do I do?

You need to first download the kdz and lg flash utility with drivers.
Install drivers
The factory reset deleting system, cache, internal sd.
Then shutdown your g2.
Start to downloaded mode connecting your g2
Flash kdz & voila... Done
I too bricked my phone before. My flashing stuck at 49%. Recovered using above method, all is well now
This works 1000%. I bet on it. Just remember to wipe the phone completely before flashing. You will return to stock with unrooted status in download mode. U will have your warranty back too

Was on 6.0. Took the OTA no problem . Was running fine. Tried to put new TWRP on and sine then can't boot up. I can get into bootloader. I can get in stock recovery (no command). I tried to use back to stock and start over from LP. Probably not best option. Now gets to the screen saying that boot loader is unlocked and nothing happens. Was able to use fast boot and get into TWRP, but no where to go from there. If I try and use a flashable zip for 6.0 it just keeps rebooting TWRP. Any ideas? Help? Figure since I can still get into fastboot I have a chance, but not sure where to go with it?
SOLVED FOR NOW. Just keep going back and forth with wiping and trying to reset everything. Finally kicked in and back to LP.. been going back and forth for 3 hours.. no clue waht kicked it in, but using the restore tool.. then manually flashed twrp and wiped in twrp then rebooted and worked .. idk.. mods feel free to delete
It first started this morning when my phone suddenly started rebooting while I was using it. Then I thought it as a ROM issue and flashed a new ROM over it. Everytime I try to flash something on system. TWRP Hangs and the phone restarts itself.
Tried repairing data, system partitions from TWRP, same thing happens. Bootloops when I try to repair data partition
Tried restoring nandroid backup. When it says flashing data, TWRP freezes and the phone starts bootlooping.
Can anyone help?
I have tried doing the EFS flash via adb from PC.

try doing a re flash of recovery, because your issue will be to get your recovery working properly or else you cant remount anything else.

I flashed TWRP 3.0.2,3.0.2-2,3.0.2-3
Loads of it. Tried doing full stock + unroot from Nexus toolkit. That usually fixed all my problems Everytime I was in dire problems like this.

Well in your case what I would do is a backup,
Then wipe, flash custom rom. Use phone til reboot.
If reboot, flash stock IMG. Use till reboot
If still rebooting, then come back. I guess I never asked.what rom.your using

It bootloops
I have the exact same problem. Last week upgraded to 7.0, root, stock room, viper4arise audio and EX kernel and that's it. while taking pictures it froze then that boot loop, somehow I managed through a combination of flashing factory image through fastboot, locking, unlocking, reflahsing, to get it to boot normally, then yesterday I was taking pictures again and it refroze then bootloops. Now I am able to fastboot factory images but it doesn't get me out of the bootloops, and in TRWP same as you, I cannot flash anything on data or system. Repairing the file system doesn'T change anything, I did like on other threads also and flashed factury, restored nandroid then flash factory but the restore on TRWP always hangs up.
I was wondering if there is someone knowing the adb dd commands to impose the raw copying back of the restore ? Maybe that would work.
Did you try wiping system under wipe > advanced in TWRP?
In twrp, can you open a terminal and check the results of this (basically, doing a full read-only test of your flash)
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/dev/null
Hi,
I unlocked the bootloader of my H870, installed TWRP 3.1.1.0 and SUPERSU. Everything was working great untill I decided to restore my system defaults to make a fresh start with my G6. After choosing the option to restore system defaults, my phone rebooted and it booted into TWRP. I rebooted my phone and it kept doing this all the time.
I decided to look for a stock ROM and flash that ROM.
I succesfully flashed the "LG-H87010f-Flashable.COMPLETE.zip" ROM (from autoprime's post) trough TWRP. But this did not work. I even wiped all the data from my phone (even system) and flashed the ROM again; still nothing.
Before having this issue, I had the same Baseband version, Kernel version, Build number. Only the dates and the Software Version are different.
I had the V10b-EUR-XX Software Version installed on my phone. I see this is the 10f version. I guess this should not be a problem right?
After this I took these steps solve this issue:
1. Downloaded new LG Mobile Drivers (LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.2.0)
2. Downloaded and installed LGUP. LGUP doesnt recognize my phone as a LG G6 and this method did not work for that reason.
Fastboot mode is working on my phone; I can reboot my phone trough the commandline on my PC and things like that . However, my PC is not recognizing my phone as a LG G6 device in Fastboot mode.
My PC recognices my phone as a H870 when in TWRP. In Fastboot mode it recognices my phone as Android Device.
3. Installed LG Bridge for more drivers; did not work either
4. Downloaded Uppercut, but it doenst work without LGUP.
4. Looked all over the internet to find a Stock ROM in .zip or .img format; found nothing
5. Downloaded WindowsLGFirmwareExtract-1.2.6.1 and tried to extract the H87010d_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0327.kdz file. I extracted it into .bin files, but they were not usable. After that, I combined these .bin files into a system.img file. But that .img file was bigger then 5 GB and for that reason it was not usable to flash trough Fastboot or TWRP.
7. Looked for other methods to obtain a H870 Stock Rom, including another extraction method, but I cant figure out how to do this.
I have spend countless hours on this problem, but I cant find an usable H870 stock rom to flash my phone with.
Is there someone that can help me out with this problem? Im willing to donate some € if someone helps me to get my phone working again.
Really hoping for a kind person to help me out and provide me solution for this issue.
Thanks in advance
Try formating data in TWRP(not factory reset) then flash the 10f complete zip. Trying to perform a factory reset from within Android could have possibly messed up your data (due to TWRP being installed instead of stock recovery) so a full data format is needed.
Lgup most likely doesn't detect the phone because you wiped system. But flashing the complete zip should have restored system.
In the future make backups in TWRP to restore later.. or flash a kdz with lg bridge or lgup without wiping system first.

Thanks for your reply. I have already formatted data in TWRP, but im still having this problem . It seems like something is preventing my device from starting up. I have flashed several ROMS on other devices, but never experienced something like this. Is there something else I can try? Can I flash the stock recovery and flash the stock ROM? I got the feeling TWRP is causing this issue.
If its possible to flash stock recovery, where can I find it?

Flash the complete zip then boot into download mode and flash kdz. Lgup should see the device as a g6 now instead of unknown device. If lgup isn't seeing any device at all (including unknown device) then your setup is off.. missing drivers or something. If that doesn't work.. idk.

Don't factory reset using the in phone option. You can only do this through twrp's option. To fix this you'll need to boot through the hard side, using power and volume down until the lg logo appears then release power for 1 sec and then repress keeping volume down pressed. Confirm yes twice on the white screens to get to twrp. Once in twrp then reset again and reflash the system. Then using twrps img installer flash your twrp img(make sure it is on ext sd) again. Then reboot.

Ohhh F*** YEAHH!!! :victory: Booting the "hard side" fixed the problem!! It was the first thing I tried this morning. I just booted this way and rebooted my phone without resetting or flashing anything. Im so damn happy lol. I still dont understand what happened and why my device was actling like this. But I learned a hard lesson; backup, backup and once again: BACKUP. And dont Factory reset in Android!
Thanks a lot for your help guys! I really apreciate it! :victory::victory:

Probably because you already did all the flashing prior to. Glad it worked. This happened when I first got my V20 and was stoned not thinking. I reset using the in phone option and it caused twrp bootloop. I too learned the hard way.
Had the same issue, fixed it, thanks.
My phone kept doing this booting into recovery no mattery what ROM I installed.
I got into twrp by holding volume down and selecting yes on next 2 white screens....but now this message appears all the time.

Great tip @Swizzle82! It allowed me to restore my LG G6 after bootloop. It had not been detected by PC, and this hardware reset helped!
Hi, all
If I understand, and to sum up :
I rooted my LG-G6 few weeks ago, and intall TWRP. When OTA wants to install official update, the reboot stops in TWRP mod, so ... failed :-/
Is the solution to flash through Uppercut/LGUP with a .kdz file, without risk of brick the phone ?
Thx
I was running xXx 4.5, and decided to "upgrade" to 5.0.
I did the usual, wiped data/system, then flashed.
I got stuck in a bootloop, and found I had to double back and wipe /data.
I did that, got stuck at the boot animation.
If I go back to recovery, all the data is jumbled, I assume encrypted? I flashed a different twrp for 8.0 compatibility, no change.
I can't push/sideload anything (roms, recovery zips sideload fine), it fails.
So I flashed the stock recovery in fastboot, rebooted there, and tried to sideload via adb the stock 8.0 flash files.
Now it works at it for a few minutes and just comes back as "Installation Failed".
Where do I go next? All i can get to is recovery, fastboot, bootloader.
I've already factory reset/wiped everything, so don't care if I lose anything anymore.
Help?
Thanks.
It appears I found a solution, just a few posts below my own! I hate it when that happens.
Anyways ,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75364805&postcount=7
seems to have got the ball rolling, I was able to copy files to my phone while in twrp, which I couldn't do before, and currently have xXx installing. The first time it installed it didn't ask about encrypted/decrypted and didn't give me any warnings, this time it did.
xXx still won't boot after flashing, trying stock full flash file..
edit 2: Was able to flash full oneplus update file and boot. had to do a factory reset after rebooting as it was crashing a ton and wouldn't get through setup. It's been running fine since though. Now I'm a little skittish to try again, there are some root features I'd really like to still have.
I have a OnePlus 5 phone stuck in the Fastboot mode, been contacting them for days now but I still keep hearing the same excuses that the matter has been escalated to their tier 2 tech support team Nd would be contacted. Please is there a way to copy files off the phone in this state before it's flashed?
