Yo its me,instead of booting into hard reset menu,i've found a way to boot right into the stock recovery mode and might help some devs to develop something for it or clearing the cache partition for else.:laugh:
Here's how:
1,Enable USB debugging
2,Plug in the phone,select File transfer
3,Open the active ADB directory,fire up command prompt and enter the following text:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
4,You should get a android doll with NO COMMAND screen,
(Below part please give it a few more try,it will succeed)
5,hold volup+power to approx. 10 sec and release
Bah.You just entered the LG's stock recovery.
Sadly the "reboot to bootloader" function failed and just boot straight back to the system,if somehow we could found how to get rid of it,the root is here
sadly its not working on H860

It should be working as long as you reach to the dead android doll
I can see the android doll but after that it reboots like normal.
You can also power off phone or select restart. Once phone is off and notification lights are off, press and hold volume down & power button. Keep holding it down once phone starts. You will see LG boot logo then recovery mode. Must keep holding down both buttons until you see recovery mode.
There is also an option to mount /system in the stock recovery. Was trying to use adb to push some files to /system, but phone is only recognized when you select the sideload using adb option.
Out of luck
No luck on H860, it just reboot the phone....

As soon as the phone vibrates and LG logo shows up you have to let go of power button and press and hold again until white recovery screen appears, vol down always held down.

Yes, I know, everyone knows how to enter safe mode, bootloader, and recovery.
I found there are some inconsistencies to entering and using recovery depending on your which software you are running. In addition there are multiple ways of entering stock recovery.
Also I always see people asking this question because somehow the keypress order is not intuitive.
Entering Safe Mode
Tablet booted and running Android
Press/Hold Power button until power menu shows up
Tap/Hold Power off option
Choose OK to reboot in safe mode
Tablet powered down
Press/Hold Power button until Google screen shows up, RELEASE Power button
Press/Hold VolDn until Android has booted up
If successful, you will see Safe mode overlayed on bottom left of screen.
Entering Bootloader (ie fastboot mode)
Tablet booted and running Android
From adb
adb reboot bootloader
can also choose recovery from menu after bootloader comes up
From app
Use Quick Boot from Google Play
Tablet powered down
Power+VolDn while booting to enter bootloader
Release buttons after you see bootloader screen
Entering Stock Recovery
Tablet booted and running Android
From adb
adb reboot recovery
From app
Use Quick Boot from Google Play
Tablet powered down
Power+VolUp while booting to enter recovery
You can release buttons after you see Google on screen
When Stock Recovery starts you will see the Android fallen down screen
To bring up the Recovery menu
Power+VolUp to show recovery menu
Must be this sequence Press/Hold Power, THEN Press/Release VolUp, release Power
Within menu
VolUp to move up
VolDn to move down
Power to select
In addition, I found an inconsistency with JSS15J stock recovery that wasn't in the JWR66N recovery
While at the Android fallen down screen if you mistakenly press
VolUp
instead of
Power+VolUp
you will still get the Recovery menu.
However, VolUp will no longer function. It will instead become a toggle for switching between the Recovery menu and the Android fallen down screen
Android fallen down screen
VolUp to toggle recovery menu
Within menu
VolUp does not work since it toggles recovery menu
VolDn to move down
Power to select

I don't remember if there are two images one with and one without the triangle. I think I've only seen the image with the red exclamation point.
I've never seen anything to indicate the red exclamation mark is something you need to pay attention to.
Now if you apply an update and there is an error, then that is something I would pay attention to.

It doesn't load the stuff you added.
It is similar to safe mode on a PC, used to diagnose whether the issue is in the stock ROM or is in something you introduced by installing some app.
I Have a probleme
since a bought TAB 3 10.1 and it's boot into safe mode i'v restart it and turrn it off the back on but it didn't go what should i do ?

oh sorry i was panic so i searched in every thing
Bootloader
If none of that works, try the command with a dash "adb reboot-bootloader" Depends on your device sometimes, sometimes unplugging your device right after you enter this command will keep it from getting stuck at the boot logo screen. If that doesn't work, hold the power button to power device down and then boot it into recovery instead using the button combo. Then you can wipe cache & start all over again.
I'm not even able to get into Recovery. I can get to the bootloader, then I select "Recovery mode" and it shows the Google logo, but it never goes into recovery. I have let it sit at the Google logo for a couple of hours, and end up just holding down the power button to shut it down.
I have tried Skipsofts toolkit, as well as Wug's, to try to unlock the bootloader. This ends up with the device hanging at the "Unlock bootloader" screen after selecting "Yes". Again, I have left it in this state for well over an hour with no change.
Here's some info on my 2013 Nexus 7:
KitKat 4.4.4
Never rooted
Never unlocked bootloader
HW version rev-e
Bootloader version FLO-04.02
I suspect my Nexus knew I was supposed to go on travel next week and is faking sick.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi guys i have a google nexus 5 and it is locked state. It is getting booted again and again but it jiust reaches google logo and again restarts. Safe boot is also enabled so i cant enter in recovery mode also. Please help me ASAP.
Hi
I rooted my nexus 10 some months ago. All worked fine until yesterday. I wanted to go back to original firmware and used the WUGs nexus root toolkit to download 4.4.3 version and flash it. But afterwards the tablet doesnt boot anymore. Google logo appears and then the circle thing never goes away. I searched many threads, and all base on going into fastboot and flash again, but thats the problem. I cant get into fastboot. The usual combination (Power and vol+ and vol-) doesnt work! I tried many other combinations with different timings, longer press only vol+ and power ...., I always get to google logo after it vibrates.
Is there any other way to get into the fastboot mode ?
Can I connect it to the computer and interrupt the boot process when I switch it on via the PC?
thanks in advance
regards
Erich
Try to connect it to PC with original usb cable and run "adb devices".
If you see Nexus device, you can try "adb reboot recovery" and upload a ROM to /sdcard with "adb push" for flash it.
Hi
Thanks for your relpy.
But thats the problem, even if I could upload a file with adb, which is not working, how would I flash it if I cant get into fastboot or recovery mode ???
thanks anyway
regards
Erich
I think what patzzz is saying is that it depends on your bootloop, often is the case that when someone is in a bootloop the kernel does initiate and adb is functional. Not always but at times for sure.
So if so you can attempt
adb reboot recovery
Or
adb reboot bootloader
If the above doesn't work than you will have to continue trying to boot to bootloader manually with key presses (which I believe is power on while holding volume down)
Best of luck!
Hi
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately it doesnt work. It made a batch file which calls adb devices and adb reboot bootloader in a loop, so it can send it to the device if it is found, but the tablet isnt regonized, tried some reboots and no luck, adb cant find it )))-:
regards
Erich
It seems a brick, but you can try using fastboot command instead of adb:
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot reboot-bootloader

I suggest you do a factory reset from the stock. You have gone back to stock firmware so you should have stock recovery. I had this happen once and this work for me.
Hi
I will try it with fastboot too, maybe it works....
How can I do a factory reset without recovery mode ?
thanks

1.If your tablet is on, turn it off.
2.Press & hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons at the same time for several seconds. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow drawn around it.
3.Press the Volume Down button twice to highlight Recovery mode.
4.Press the Power button to start Recovery mode. You'll see an image of an Android robot with a red exclamation point and the words "No command."
5.While holding down the Power button, press the Volume Up button.
6.Use the volume buttons to scroll to "Wipe data/factory reset," then press the Power button to select it.
7.Scroll down to "Yes - erase all user data," then press the Power button to select it.
>>2.Press & hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons at the same time for several seconds. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow drawn around it.
Thats the problem, it doesnt work! Tried it a dozent times, only Google logo appears.....

Does anyone have a working stock recovery for the XT1642. Everthing i find and flash gives an error (file not signed or corrupted) literally everything gives me this. I now get the "no command" error when i open the recovery from the bootloader. I'm looking for one cuz i just got the nougat update but i cant update with twrp or a broken "no command" recovery.
Can anyone help?
As long as your recovery flashes with OKAY at the end of your command, the recovery should be flashed. Reboot into recovery to ensure it's not overwritten.
With the no command in recovery, press the power button, and whilst holding the power button also press the volume up button, then release the volume up button and then the power button. After a few seconds of pressing that combination, you should enter the recovery options with 'Apply update via SD card', 'wipe cache' and other menu items.
Hopefully you'll be able to install your update - in the event you get an error 7, you may have to re-flash Marshmallow or flash the fastboot Nougat ROM. Good luck either way

To piggyback on this reply, it can take a little practice to press both buttons correctly and get this to work. Or maybe it's just me

When I do this it just boots to system. Maybe I didn't press the volume button good enough??

It's possible, as Mistersteve posted and I concur, the key combo takes some time to get used to, also, I recall the top option when you get into recovery is 'reboot to system', so that might have been accidentally pressed. Thanks google....
All I can suggest is be a bit slow with the key presses, I think the key combo last time took about 5 seconds. It's fiddly, though hopefully you'll get there!

Okay, starting from the top: (credit to the steps listed in the Motorola support document: https://motorola-global-portal.cust...prod_answer_detail/a_id/105537/p/30,6720,9390)
1) With your device powered off, hold both the power button and the volume down key until the device powers on, then release.
2)This will boot your device into the bootloader/fastboot mode. Use the volume keys to select Recovery. Press the power key to boot.
3)At the No command screen, hold the power key and then press, then release the volume up key, then release the power key. You should then be at the recovery menu screen. This step might take a few tries.
You may choose to skip steps 1 and 2 via adb, so whilst your device is powered on and booted, plug your device into your computer (checking that USB Debugging is enabled), and in the adb terminal execute the command 'adb reboot recovery'.

It did work, sadly the update failed anyway. I thought fixing the recovery would make the update work but no.

Hey guys. I just got LG G6 H870 model. Unlocked bootloader without much problems, but issues came later. While being in bootloader I can't do anything, hardware buttons seem to not work. The only way to get out of bootloader is to use "fastboot reboot" command, but that prevents me from getting into custom recovery after flashing it. Only entering download mode works (holding volume up and plugin in usb cable). Non other key combination work until I boot into system.
Can this issue be somehow resolved?
I had similar problem myself with entering recovery more and the reason behind it was that I didn't press the button combo in proper way. what you actually have to do is while you in fastboot mode you press down and hold power button and volume down button. phone reboots after a moment and you should still be holding these keys and when lg logo appears you let go of power button for brief second and then press it back again and then when a prompt on white screen appears just go yes two times and phone shall boot in recovery mode . I had watch a tutorial movie to figure that out. other easy way is just to have adb enabled and reboot it with adb reboot recovery command via USB cable

No, because I had G5 and I know the proper way to do that. Problem is I can hold the power button as long as I live and the phone won't reboot, regardless of pressed combination or power button solo.
and the adb command way ?
Well... Nevermind, turns out vol down button isn't working at all.
still good way around is adb reboot recovery
was trying to root my lg stylo 2 Walmart family mobile(t-mobile) and i unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp but it just says no command when i boot into recovery.
Then you didn't flash the recovery properly, it's fairly simple. If you're able to get fastboot (shut off the phone totally, hold Volume Down and plug in the USB cable attached to a computer, it should go into fastboot mode almost instantly, if not then there's an issue someplace).
After that using fastboot with the recovery img file for TWRP:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery (recovery_file).img
Wait, if it says flashing successful then before you do anything else, type the following:
Code:
fastboot reboot (but do NOT press Enter yet)
Get the phone in your hand, still connected to the USB cable, and get your fingers on the Volume Down + Power button but don't put them just yet. Carefully tap the Enter key with a pinky or something to trigger the device reboot, press and hold Volume Down + Power till you see the LG logo, let Power go for a split second (still holding Volume Down) then press Power again and hold it till TWRP loads.
If that doesn't work - and I've done that hundreds of times - there's something going on with your device, perhaps the bootloader isn't truly unlocked - that checkbox in Developer Options doesn't mean it's unlocked, it just means it can be.
