Are you sure you DELETED all of the partitions? I've never heard of that option in TWRP. Though it would brick the device.
I've checked all squares when wiping and deleted all...then after reboot tablet was stuck at Samsung logo and I couldn't even power it off...somehoI w I did manage to get into TWRP,dunno how,I keep on pressing key combos and when geting into TWRP I reflashed LIneageOS...
What option of deleting all partitions does?
I did check all 5 squares when wiping. :/
I thought I deleted TWRP too.

First of all, you didn't "delete" the partitions, you merely "wiped" them clean. When you do this, there is no longer any ROM installed, so there is no system to boot. But that shouldn't prevent you from booting to recovery or download. BTW, TWRP has no option to wipe the recovery partition. IOW, itself.

Because there was no OS to accept the instruction from pressing the power button. I don't have your model tablet, but typically with Tab A tablets, you need to hold Vol down and power for about 7 - 10 seconds and the tablet will turn off but then turn right back on. But if you switch from Vol down to Vol up as soon as the screen turns off, and keep holding that a power, it should boot into recovery. If you just keep holding power and Vol down, it should boot to download mode.

Sounds like you'll need to try to do a factory wipe from recovery and then flash a zip of the stock rom (which you'll need to copy to your SD card)
Did forget your own password or buy this one hot?

Did you try a full wipe of the tablet? Hold down the volume up key and the power button until the tablet vibrates. Release the power button while still holding the volume up key, and slide the screen lock button (next to the volume up key) to the right and then back to the left.
The screen should display 'Erasing Userdata', you can then release the volume key. It should then erase the cache, Acer says it can take 5-10 minutes to complete. The tablet should then reboot, and you may be able to get in from the stock settings.
If the tablets hangs at 'Erasing Cache' for more than 15 minutes, force a power down by holding in the power key. The try the power/volume/lock routine again.

I have the same issues. I have tried installing new roms, and still get the same issues. Any ideas would be great
[SOLVED]
I rooted this, installed clockworkmod, then went and got an cm7 dated april something 2012 u8160 rom from psyke83 website.
installed it through clockworkmod install from sd card option with success (also clicked option to backup everything).
yet when phone reboots it hangs on the blue arrow in a circle spinning around, sometimes reboots n repeats but it never goes past that.
I have tried going into recovery mode holding down volume buttons and power
and I get 1 of 2 errors:
with sd card in:
firmware update
step 1/2
unpacking
update failed
with sd card out:
purple screen.
I am a first time android modder, can someone please, please tell me how to fix this. I can access the sd card with a reader if need be to put whatever files on it that I should.
Thank you.
Start the phone by pressing volume up + power OR volume down + power. You should be able to boot to recovery with one of those combinations (other one boots to fastboot most probably). After that do the wipe data/cache and try to reboot once again.
What was wrong in the beginning was that you did not wipe data/cache. That made the CM use old OS's data files which obviously won't work.
The unpacking thing was caused by pressing volume up + volume down + power. That causes the phone to go to upgrade mode if there is an update package found.
Nope. still goes to the blue arrow circling then freezes then reboots....

You are right about me not wiping the data/cache though...
But in your phone forum, are there tutorials on how to boot to recovery? Do you have any other hard keys on the phone?
there is one other button but that didn't work either.

When you hold these two buttons and you see the LG logo, release and hold them again fast until you see factory reset screen. At this point press the power key three times and you will go to recovery. An press the thanks button here.

I think you have have to hold for 5 seconds to completely power down.
Hold vol- and power key and when logo pops up release power key and again hold power key then Reset screen should display. Press power until it starts factory reset which will dump you into Recovery.

I tried to get to ADB through Terminal but it doesn't recognize the device. Any ideas?

Ensure the device is powered off.
Note Ensure the USB cable is disconnected.
Press and hold the Volume down button and the Power button.
When the LG logo is displayed release the Power button only then immediately press and hold the Power button again.
Release both buttons when the Factory hard reset screen displays.
Press the Power button to continue.
You will boot into recovery mode and it will not factory reset.
Hope this helps!
I do not know if this has been covered and I missed it, or if it is even possible. I was trying to boot into recovery to clear the cache. I have the T-Mobile V20. I can get it to the factory reset screen, but it only deletes the data on the phone. Does anyone have any information on how to do this, or what I am missing? I appreciate the help. Sorry if this is in the wrong place.
You gave to have TWRP to do that. Haven't gotten that far yet. Phone is brand new. Give it 2-3 weeks.

Ok, so there is no stock recovery like with the S7 and Note 7? Thanks.
What exactly are you talking about when you mean recovery? I mean you are able to get into a recovery mode screen that lists things such as 'reboot to bootloader', 'sideload from adb', 'sideload from sdcard', 'factory reset', and like a cache clear. But I dont know if that's what youre looking for.

Go to settings, then general, then storage and click on internal. You will see the cache and clear it after it calculates.
open developer options, enable usb debugging, and with adb on your PC type adb reboot recovery then hold power and volume up when the little android dude appears.
He may be referring to the OEM stock LG recovery. In the stock recovery you can wipe data/factory reset or clear cache partition. You can get to this recovery by using certain button combos before there phone powers past the bootloader.

There's your problem Verizon...the instructional button presses I was referring to is for H918 T-MOBILE. Verizon variant may be different, which also may require "Verizon LG v20 drivers."

OR, from Terminal Emulator just "reboot recovery"
i found the button combination to get into recovery mode.
Start by turning off your phone.
Don’t reboot it – just press on the Power key and select “power off” or press and hold the Power key for a few moments.
Wait while the shut down process is completed.
Then, press and hold (at the same time and for a few moments) the Volume Down and Power buttons.
When the LG Logo is displayed, release the Power Key but keep pressing the Volume Down button; while doing so press only once the Power button.
Release all the keys as soon as the recovery mode menu is displayed on your LG V20.
I have tried multiple versions of the combinations on my tmobile one and can never get into my twrp that way. I just use titanium backup for now

You can also access it via fastboot mode commands. By typing adb reboot recovery. But if you dont have twrp installed, then you will be taken to the white screen and your data will be deleted

Make sure you have the latest TWRP installed. 3.0.2-1 I believe. From off its vol down+power, see LG logo let go of power for 1 second then push and hold again(so both buttons will be pressed again, not just vol down) select "yes" to both options that pop up, (and no it won't wipe anything.) It will boot into TWRP as soon as you select yes to the second option. I have TMO as well and it works every time. The latest TWRP is the only one that u can boot into recovery from powered off

No when you do the button combo properly a while screen will pop up and ask if you want to factory reset. You select "yes" both times and you will boot into TWRP. You have to have the latest 3.0.2-1 TWRP installed in order to get to recovery from power off. The button combo 100% works. Again, vol down + power. When you see LG let go of power but not vol down for one second and then press and hold power(now both buttons) until that white screen pops up. If it doesn't, you either don't have TWRP installed or not the latest version.
You manually installed TWRP, correct?Are you rooted?

Just tried it again and still couldnt do it with the buttons. Used titanium backup to boot into twrp and its the correct version as you said. Am I doing the button combo on the 1st LG screen or on the 2nd one that pops up after the screen that says cant verify boot press power button to pause boot? It should be on the 1st LG one that shows up based on what I've read so far but maybe I'm mistaken?? No clue at this point. You said release for a second and ive done that plus many other variations of timing and I just plain suck at this I guess lol.
