Device stuck on TWRP screen after doing dirtysanta - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Basically after step 3, my phone turned off to reboot into recovery but it didnt install twrp correctly, so I fastbooted and flashed it. now when I try to get into twrp the logo screen just comes up and I cant do anything (adb commands or fastboot commands do not work) and tryin to let the device boot normally gives the corrupted device message and then just goes to recovery.
Im not very good with all this so help would be extremely appreciated. thanks

Yup, currently cannot perform any actions to the phone with adb. Adb reboot-bootloader does not work and I dont know much else I could do. I tried to re flash twrp with fastboot but now that I cant even get to fastboot i have no idea what to do.

What variant do you have

How are you flashing this recovery? I am having the same problem.
Figured it out. Used cwm recovery and flashed the fixed version

Vs980 twrp
Just to clarify, the fix for the broken VS980 TWRP .zip first appeared in the official cyanogenmod nightlies thread, and it was suggested that one should first achieve a working TWRP 2.6.3.2 recovery first, then use it to flash the fixed recovery .zip to update to version 2.6.3.3 (it seems to "upgrade" the previous recovery rather than flash itself in entirety.)
However this may be wrong... I personally already had TWRP 2.6.3.2 installed so I went ahead and used the fixed .zip without a hitch, but it seems like kregstrong had no issues flashing from cwm.
OK think I fixed it. Try now. Sorry. Couldn't find the original link for it

Cant flash recovery..

Hi, I tried to flash twrp recovery with some help from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670 but it keeps saying fail.. I tried both options.
if rooted freegee is easier from app store, it gets proper automagically.
If trying to flash via cwm, get the recovery flashable zip from the thread and not the img. Doubt thats the case
Where did you get that awesome avatar btw?

Thanks awesome downloaded the zip file, could you please give me the steps on how to flash it ?
btw I created my avatar through this site http://www.faceyourmanga.com/editmangatar.php
sorry for my English I'm European .
BTW again, do I need an unlocked bootloader to flash roms like paranoid I'm on d802
"Keeps saying it failed" What failed, in what part? Also currently there's no way to unlock the bootloader, but use loki bypass instead, basically when you have recovery installed, you don't have to worry much about bootloader or loki.

Yes you can and flash them without any problems. Only in twrp settings tick the option to use different format command or it'll take like 10 minutes to wipe cache

Sprint LG G2, can't install a custom recovery

Hello all, I've got an LG G2 LS980 on 4.2.2 Jellybean. (I do not want to update to Kitkat) I cannot seem to install a custom recovery. I've read multiple guides and followed them all perfectly.. The ones using loki flash always give an error such as "Not a valid loki image" or "aboot version does not match the device" I've tried using the dd command on teamwin's site as well and all it did was completely remove my stock recovery. I've spent days trying to get this to work, please could someone help

Here is the guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522965
You said you read multiple guides, so I'm sure you've done this one already. If so, I would suggest you .tot to ZVA and start over. I first installed recovery on ZVA and didn't have issues like yourself.

Q: Anyone know I can root without PC?

NO PC RECOVERY FLASHING METHOD
As always flash at your own risk. I am not responsible for what you do to your device.
So Santod040 took the time to help me figure this out and the method for flashing recovery WITHOUT a PC can be found posted below. Once you have recovery flashed you can root the device.
Update: See this method here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=68101276
Make sure to place it on your external SD card and rename it after the flash is completed.

You should be able to install custom recovery TWRP from phone, using I think it's called flashify
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349847
Then you just download SuperSU and flash in TWRP, I do believe.
I'm on custom ROM, so hopefully others can chime in before you take this advice.

Here's what I zipped up from work, on my device:
Place in root of sd card and follow prompts in download mode to flash it.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0ajcYhQap8eS3lidHphQkNLVzA/view?usp=drivesdk
Untested, but should work fine.
Disconnecktie may be able to verify soon...
Make sure to remove prefix from filename.

I'm just waiting for my phone to charge a few more minutes. Make sure you don't zip the folder up or it will not work. You also have to place it on the root of your external SD card. Make sure you rename it afterwards.

What version of SuperSu did you flash?
Latest stable version is what you want, v.2.76.

I don't understand the issue. There is a very clear guide on how to root here https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/general/guide-how-to-root-pure-style-t3503958. I was able to install TWRP and root with relative ease. The hardest part is just making sure you read for the details.
I successfully downgraded from marshmallow to lollipop and unlocked bootloader installed TWRP and rooted,then bypassed the factory reset protection so I could log in to Google on the set up screen.
