Only idea I've come up with so far: try booting into recovery to maybe unstick it by using the volume keys? Same way as twrp, hold volume down, power til screen turns on, then tap power repeatedly (still holding volume down) until the factory reset menu appears, confirm the reset using the volume and power buttons.
Other than that trying to reflash the kdz I suppose ( that did appear to work correctly aside from the bootloops, no other errors?)

So I don't know why this happened, I had rooted and installed TWRP and was happy, so I tried to install Malladus (1.2.9) and gapps and the 24a upgrade .zip, and now here I am.
I've tried most methods, and the LG Flash tool just says "failed PreviousLoad()" when I click the yellow arrow.
I f'd this phone up 12 hours after I got it.
If you see the LG boot logo than there is still a chance to fix the phone. Try to manually go back into recovery. Turn off the phone by long pressing power button. As soon as the screen is black, press power and volume down together, you only get a half second to do it. When LG logo appears release and press them together again until the factory reset screen comes up. Then press power 2 or 3 times and you should go back into your recovery. Once there you can try to reinstall rom, backup or side load a new rom. Hope this helps!
What is your phone model? Without that I cannot help you.
Same problem
Hi guys, like an idiot I was successfully able to install the debloat 4.4.2 on my vzw LG G2 but I tried to flash nandroid recovery back to my 4.2 and now I am stuck on boot loop and cannot get back into recovery. I tried to hard button by pressing both the bottom button and power, and press it again when the lg logo comes on and after pressing the power button a few times, it just goes into a black screen, so I cannot get back into recovery in this manner. Anyone know how I can get back into recovery without going through the full wipe back to factory?
I tried to update my LG G2 D802 from CM12.1 to 13 using the following steps:
1. reboot into twrp (2.8.7.3)
2. full wipe (all but internal storage)
3. installed bootstack-d802-CAF-signed.zip
4. installed CM13
5. reboot system
so far it worked fine, so I went back into recovery mode, installed the open_gapps-arm-6.0-stock-20151203.zip. After reboot, the phone keep throwing error messages "google service is closed" and keep repeating. I thought it may be an error in the gapps so I went into recovery again and tried to install another gapp version. I did a full-wipe again, but then I accidently did a system reboot. Now the phone is stuck after showing the LG logo and won't start properly. I try to go back into recovery mode:
1. turn off the phone
2. press power + volume down until the logo shows
3. release and repress the both button, which should bring me into recovery mode, but it didnt work. tried it numerous times, but always the same, if I release and press the both button after LG logo, the phone would just restart after few seconds...
can someone help me? Since the phone doesn't start, I can't install anything. Is there another way to get into recovery mode? Or can someone explain to me what I broke?
Don't press and release the volume down and power button at the lg logo. Just hold it until it goes into recovery.
If you can't get in, try to TOT back to stock. I would recommend you stick with rooted stock before you hard brick it(if you haven't done so already). Not only is cm buggy ass hell on the g2 but MM will be even more so since it's so new. Good luck.

+1 to this method, i have been using this when I was not able to get into recovery easily. My issue is unrealted to yours though.
I had a similar issue trying to enter Recovery on my phone. I've tried a lot both methods, so I turned off the device, waited something like 5 minutes, then tried the vol up + vol down method and it worked. I don't know why, but that's not the first time I have to wait a bit longer to try the key combination in order to enter Recovery. Just in case you can't turn off you phone completly, hold power button till phone turns off, keep holding it, wait for the LG logo to show up, when the screen goes off, release the button. Good luck

It's not working for me. I got excited for a minute since others had luck with it, but it was a no-go for me. I know this is an older thread but....
It seems like being rooted, having TWRP and CM13 and Flashify, between all those, something should freakin' work, besides goofy hardware button combos. :crying:

So a Tmobile update came on my phone and I decided to click update for some stupid reason... Its early.
I was stock rooted with TWRP installed.
After clicking that it rebooted and went into TWRP recovery. Whether I reboot or turn off and manually go into recovery I can't get it to reboot normally whatsoever.
I tried to flash WETA rom and everything went properly with the install but affter the reboot I am still left with TWRP.
Any suggestions on how to get my phone working again. I am downloading the 10i KDZ file now but was hoping there was another answer.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Power off or pull battery for a sec.
Hold vol down and power button - as soon as you see LG logo - release and immediately re-press power button only while continuing to hold vol down.
Factory reset screen will come up if you did it right. Use vol down to select YES twice to factory reset. ( It won't really reset anything but the recovery boot trigger ).
You'll end up in twrp. Just select reboot system and profit

Thanks for posting this. Same thing just happened to me and now my phone is back to normal.
Hello guys, been a while, but I got myself into trouble. For a while I had rooted the phone but one time I rebooted and it supposedly no longer had root. Today I got a notification that magisk updated, so I decided to try it. I booted into recovery and tried to flash. Nothing happened. I tried wiping davlik cache and tried again. What ended up happening instead was that the phone was unresponsive. I attempted to reboot, but instead I got stuck in a bootloop.
I realize the most effective way to get out of it is to flash the firmware via Odin, but since I didn't make a backup I want to avoid that if possible. The problem is that other than the soft reboot (power + volume down) I cannot power off the phone to access recovery mode! I've searched and searched, but have only found ways to soft reset, which doesn't help me access recovery mode.
Is there a way to power off the phone while stuck in a bootloop? Or, alternatively, is there a way to boot into recovery while in a bootloop?
It's so frustrating to not be able to something as simple as a battery pull since the phone is sealed. Is there a way to replicate that to be able to power it off?
Any help would be appreciated.
Hold the power button for 10 seconds.

Hold Vol down and power for soft reboot. As soon as the screen goes off to reboot quickly switch to recovery combo (bixby + up + power) it should boot to recovery

What if Vol down and power don't work, adb, fastboot and device manager don't see it, any other combinations tried too, wait for full discharge don't option. Help plz
Did you manage to get out of this?
Im really scared i bricked my phone now. Everything was working fine but after i did a normal reboot it suddenly would not start up.
Screen is black and the only way i can get a response from the phone is the soft restart (vol down + power).
I need to get into recovery somehow so i can restore my nandroid backup but vol up + bixby + power doesnt work (i assume the phone is on and frozen or something?)
I managed to fix my phone. After leaving it for 24 hours the battery was fully drained. After charging again i could boot to twrp and restore my nandroid backup.
Hi,
I have a LG V20 (LG-h990DS) and have recently received the OREO update.
I am trying to get into the recovery mode to wipe the dalvik cache.
I have tried using the ADB method. I get to the screen with "No Command" and the little android robot. From there no combination of key pressed seems to have any effect to accessing the recovery method. Holding volume up and pressing power has no effect eventually restarting the phone. I have done this recently before the update, but this menu does not seem be accessible now.
Can someone please help? What is the correct key press combination as I maybe doing something wrong?
Thanking you in advance.

Sounds like you are going into stock recovery. Is your phone rooted? If it was an you updated it with stock firmware it probably replaced the recovery with stock recovery. You will need to go through the process of installing twrp again.
Oreo doesn't use davlik runtime anymore and has switched to android just in time compilers. If you are trying to do a master reset, you can always try
with phone off
power button and volume down press and hold
when you see the lg splash screen
release only the power button and press power button again (while holding volume down)
it should ask to reset the phone - with stock recovery, this will wipe all data from the phone so you better have everything backed up. With twrp installed it will actually start twrp recovery.
