[Q]Bootloop, no recovery

Hi, my D802 is stuck in a bootloop, where it just shows the LG splashscreen and the custom ROM's boot animation, but it won't get past there.
Unable to get into recovery either. Phone screen just flashes and LG logo comes back up whenever I try the recovery combo (power + down then power + down). I can get into download mode but I can't seem to get adb to work, and then use [adb reboot recovery] to boot into recovery. Drivers all installed, and all are the latest. Recovery was working fine before this and it screwed up only after I flashed a custom ROM.
What am I doing wrong? My phone is now nothing but a paperweight since I can't get into the OS nor the recovery. Thanks.

Need help desperately :(

My phone won't boot after installing the latest DU custom rom. I followed the steps here https://plus.google.com/+AlexCruz/posts/JJ5d9v6DArW - rooted and installed latest clockwork mod recovery, did a backup, and wiped everything, then installed the custom rom. But now it is stucked at the Dirty Unicorns boot screen.. Please help.
Some extra info: I was on 4.2.2 (802 international) before the flash
Edit: i can't even get to recovery now, by holding power and volume down buttons at LG logo. Is my phone dead?

Are you getting to the factory hard reset prompt? You have to go through that to get back into the recovery. Then you can just restore from Backup.

--This is copied and paste from another thread--
"You should be able to get to CWM recovery by using the hardware button (power and volume down held down, flash LG logo for a second, and then shuts off--only then you can turn it back on by holding power and volume down together until LG logo pops on, then let go of both buttons quickly, hold down both power and volume down again, and then quickly let go of the volume down button: a white factory reset screen should pop up and then you can push power button alone twice to enter CWM recovery).
If above does not work, you may need to KDZ back to stock using download mode (google LG G2 download mode) and USB cable (the one that comes with the phone as some USB cable won't work as they're charge only cable). You'll have to reroot with IOROOT25 and start over again."

I have no idea what fastboot or download mode is but your phone should be soft-bricked? If you can get into recovery or the factory reset screen you should be safe.
I wasn't able to get into the recovery at first but then I kept trying and trying and managed to get in by luck. Lol. I then wiped everything including Dalvik cache in Advanced and rebooted and was relieved to find it booted into Dirty Unicorns. I guess i was lucky.

always booting into recovery

hello,
i've got a weird problem for some time now. i already have a workaround but it always requires me to hook the phone up to a pc.
the problem: after rebooting the phone to recovery, it gets stuck there.
i had this with cm12, cm12.1, temasek cm12.1, phronesis 2 and darklord N5 so i suppose the problem is not related to the roms itself.
if i long press power from running android and select reboot -> recovery the phone boots to recovery as expected.
whatever i do, after hitting reboot -> system in recovery it reboots to... recovery.
removing the battery for 5 minutes does not help.
the phone just keeps booting to recovery. the one fix i found so far is a mere workaround:
force download mode (vol down + home + power), hook it up to my pc, launch odin and flash twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4.img.tar
this gets my phone to properly boot into normal android, but it always requires a pc. so using CM Updater oder CyanDelta with automatic installation of updates always gets me stranded in recovery while on the go.
what can i do to avaid this recovery bootloop? sure, i can just boot into recovery manually (vol up + home + power), but i suppose there is a real "fix" for this. do i have the wrong recovery? did i pick 5 roms with all the same bug?
this is really really annoying, especially if i forget about the problem and reboot into recovery from long-press power...
my N3 is a n9005 running on custom roms since late 2014 (i.e. i havent got all the official OTA updates which may be available)

Unable to boot into TWRP Recovery

My OP2 is rooted and i am facing few issues now. I am not able to connect my phone to any PC and not even to access my phone on PC. Now my TWRP recovery is also not working, i am not able to reboot into TWRP neither by advanced reboot nor by holding the volume down and power button, just the oneplus logo flashes and then i get a black screen or phone gets switched off, but i can normally boot into Oxygen OS vs 2.2.0.
I am not able to connect my phone with pc so cannot flash New recovery neither i can flash other ROM using TWRP..
Please help

Wait until the batter completely dies then hold power + volumn down + home to get to download mode then flash stock firmware and that should fix it.
