Can't boot into recovery

hey guys,
i flashed a mod to test some things and i'm gettings bootloops right now. tried to restore my made backup before flashing but the phone won't start recovery mode by pressing and holding the power und volume down buttons. tried it with usb cable connected and disconnected.
any ideas?

Hold down power and volume down, release for 1 second asset the lg logo then hold down power and volume down again. Agree to the next 2 prompts and our will take you to your recovery

TWRP won't factory reset your phone anymore when you do that? I heard it was doing that in 2.6.3.1.

I had this when running TWRP and if I remember you hold the "off" button down until it starts to reboot and then quickly hold the up button while it's rebooting.
You may be able to just hold the start and up button at the same time then turn the start button loose when you see the logo.
Again; I can't remember exactly what I did but it's safe to say to device is not broken.
One note: I was never able to get TWRP to run correctly (consistently) on this device without at least some issues.
I use CMR with no problems.
Also when I had this problem i had to do a complete wipe to get completely into download mode...
Good luck...

That's correct! it will auto restart so you have to get your timing right. Try holding down the start button and as soon as the screen goes blank release the start button and grab the up button..

This is why I abandoned TWRP which was always my favorite, but not for this device.
I'm glad your up and going again...

The phone is not More Warranty and I can not flash the original rom just go into recovery because the phone restarts all the time ... but since you just insert the battery the phone begins to restart without crushing any key may not be the key power stuck ?

I'm trying to understand you, if you can't access to any of that than you somehow hard bricked your device, and I suggest you to take your phone to service. Try to remember what you done with your phone before that happened
Sent from my SM-G800H using Tapatalk

Is it reboot instantly or after 2-3 seconds?
If you got enough time try to clear cache in recovery

So you are telling that your buton is constantly pressed and that you have no need to hold it when entering a download mod?
Sent from my SM-G800H using Tapatalk

Yes .... although I can crush

Hmm it stuck on force rebooting same as if you hold power button.
Try holding your button in random moment for few second maybe it fix itself

Nougat Recovery Mode

So I tried going into recovery mode and ever since the update it won't allow me. Just shows the android laying down and says "no command" what am I doing wrong? Just trying to wipe cache.

you need to hold the power button and hit the volume keys from that screen to get to recovery.

That's what I did and I selected "recovery Mode" which was highlighted in red. Then it says no command.

You need to do that after you select recovery mode.

Sounds like a missing recovery... might need to reflash TWRP

Me too. Untethered Recovery. What can I do?
Sr for my English.

Boot into bootloader then scroll to recovery and press power button to select recovery.
Then u press and hold the power button and click volume down then it will open the recovery options.

That's not the problem, it stops morons from accessing it and messing with it then calming that it deleted all their stuff which it's their fault not anyone elses.
@scoot0073 said the exact steps.

Download the latest twrp from twrp.me to your computer. Once you have that boot your phone to the bootloader - power and volume down. After that simply plug in your phone, open a cmd/terminal in the folder where the twrp-xxx file is. then run this.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-1-angler.img
If that version doesn't work, try 3.0.2
That's my suggestion! Hope it works.
PS: The last time I was on Android N I had to decrypt. Not sure if that is still required.

When you see the Android lying on its back, you are in recovery mode. From there, your need to hold power and tap volume up. That will give you the different recovery menu options like install from adb, wipe, etc.

I have a solution for this..
As it happened with me as well..
Just.. Press and hold the power button
Then.. double click the volume button..
This will surely work for u..!!

How do I get in to recovery

I flashed a Rom with no root and Adb is broken on this Rom. How do I get in to recovery without either of those?

Did you figure it out?

Turn off the phone. Hold the volume down button and plug the phone via USB should reboot into fastboot. Then just use the fastboot command to reboot into recovery.

Tried, but I dont think there is a command to do that from FB

You could try to just download Terminal Emulator and type 'reboot recovery'. You shouldn't need root for that command. But then again, this thread is almost a month old - I would hope he had found a solution by now.

I downloaded quick reboot from the playstore that works for me

TWRP manager from the app store works as well.

Power the phone off (pull battery if necessary)
Hold power button and volume down key until you see LG logo, release and then press the power button (DO NOT RELEASE THE VOLUME DOWN KEY)
This should bring you to the factory reset menu. Select yes for both questions (use volume keys to toggle and power to select)
If you installed TWRP correctly it will boot to recovery...
If TWRP is gone, it will factory reset and you can get into your phone.
