[Q] LG G2 D802 Stuck on bootloop. Help please?

So I rooted my G2 using this method: http://theunlockr.com/2013/10/25/root-lg-g2-versions-video/
And flashed CWM using this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468858
And everything worked perfectly.
I could boot into recovery, all that stuff, but then some stuff went wrong when I tried to flash CM10.2..
I used ROM Manager, and backed up the ROM, which only sort of worked, being unable to back up 'system'
It then tried to flash CM10.2, but was stuck so I force shut down.. Now it's in boot loop, with the LG logo, and I'm unsure how to boot into recovery (tried volume up +Power, volume down+Power, niether worked)... What should I do?

Hi,
To enter in recovery it's a little more subtle , it's in the OP where you take your recovery...:
HOW TO ENTER RECOVERY
Method 1: Hold the power button + volume down button until the LG image appears. Once it does let go of the buttons then immediately push and hold them again until recovery boots.
NOTE: The method above will arrive at the "hard reset" area, but when choosing hard reset, it will take you to CWM (without actually resetting).

In recovery, do a full wipe then flash CM (right version for your phone?) and see if it boots.
Otherwise, return to full stock or use an OTG cable to push another rom (if your actual recovery support it), at least to have a working phone before flashing something else...
And backup your rom directly in recovery, not with Rom Manager...

When I try backup in cwm, it says 'can't mount to /system"
When I try installing the rom, it just sticks to 'installing update' and the progress bar doesn't move...

Ah...
If I were you I will start from scratch, maybe not the best method but...
Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 to return to stock, then root, install recovery, backup your rom in recovery (first thing to do). Full wipe and try CM...
Have you the right recovery for your phone model?

Yes, I believe so.
That method I just attempted now, but: 09:02:28 : Launching SW update
09:02:28 : Unpacking KDZ
09:02:29 : KDZ file extraced
09:02:29 : Extract file error
09:02:31 : ===FINISHED===
So yeah, it didn't work :/
I'm completely lost.

Did you check the MD5 of the kdz file you downloaded?

The md5 is 2e42d58646ae740d56d7ae3ab10204a5, maybe it's the wrong one? It did say it's for the D802, though, which is definitely what I have.

I'm in the exact same situation.
Did you resolve the issue with the return to stock guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
I'm thinking that it could be possible to put a different ROM on the sdcard via mounting CWM but not sure how to go about doing this, any suggestions?
Thanks

Sounds like you installed stock wrong... remember to click "Normal web upgrade test" first before clicking "Upgrade Start" in new window. The log shows u clicked "upgrade start" before clicking "normal web upgrade test"

Hmm that's weird, have you tried re flashing your recovery maybe something is broken there? have you tried other roms? If using TWRP try to update it or change to CWM or vice versa

Yea I updated to 2.6.3.4 which as of my knowledge is the latest
Sorry for my noobness :/ it is really bugging me as I think it has something to do with having cyanogen installed before but then again after pursuing the flash tool and restoring back to stock I can't think what is wrong

Double Flash seemed to fix it
I flashed the ROM after returning to stock again and before flashing it wiped all partitions and it still stuck on boot so i went straight back into recovery and flash again this time without wiping anything as i was only writing over the StockMOD install and it seems to work
So the solution for me seemed to me to flash it twice wiping before the first and after it fails to boot just flash it again without wiping.
I now have it up and running and I'm very happy with it
Thanks for those who tried to help me much appreciated

A little info for those stuck at 49% using LG Flash Tool

I just want to share my experience after a bad flash and no way to recover.
I was still able to get to TWRP. I had flashed a Rom and it went bad. Long story short. No Loki causing boot into fastboot screen.
Tried using flash tools to restore stock with kdz. No good kept stopping at 49% because it was not the expected firmware.
The fix.
Wipe system in recovery then try again. With system wiped. The firmware matches and installs as expected.
Just wanted to share my experience. Maybe it will help someone else with the same problem.

Hi, sorry for my english , I'm french
I wanted to flash a custom rom on my LG G2 D802 .
I wanted the Paranoid Android (PA +) with 4.3 JellyBean .
So I made the
Backup
Wipe data / factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvik Cache
After I
Choose zip ( custom ROM ) from sd card
Then I
Reboot System Now
And turn on my laptop, I get an error message saying
[640 ] started Fastboot Mode
[ 690] udc start ()
I realized I had to flash AOSP kernel before changing to a ROM paranoid . But my kernel is blocked and so I have to go back to the stock ROM
When I did this tutorial using lg tools , flashing stops at 49% with an error message .
I also saw that I could access the recovery mod by following this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2565904(but I saw that I could not otherwise reboot my phone after it was bricking ) and therefore flash my stock Rom which I had made the backup . But I do not know if the ROM has been saved and if it remained in my files after the Wipes.
If it is not there, is that in buying a micro USB ====> HUSB adapter, I could install a stock ROM from a USB key ? Or is there a way I can put files from my computer to my laptop which has no port micro sd?
And is what I could with my kernel "blocked " ?
Thank you very much

It sounds like you have access to recovery, so you can use adb to push or pull files from your phone. Your backup should still be on your phone, as long as you didn't wipe the internal storage.
I'd suggest pulling the important photos/videos/backup/files/etc from your phone to your computer, then wiping internal storage or wipe factory reset. Then hopefully it wont get stuck at 49%, as that is what I did for my friend's D801 to allow it to go back to stock 100%.

Exactly what i keep telling people with the same issue, Just do a full wipe in cwm/twrp before restoring to stock. the problem is allot of them can't get into recovery :silly:

Thanks for sharing! Will be useful someday

Reading vs980 now I have no recovery, flash tool does not work ( says wrong phone) rayglobe runs perfect but all maps dealong with root sees a 802 phone. Anyone have a idea how to fix this?

Search is your friend, any app that can edit the build prop should work, please make a backup of your build prop. if you get it wrong your device will not boot.

Ok I found a thread on here about how to use file explorer to change the build prop it says there r 2 entries I need to change but my question is do I change it from d802 to vs980 or vs980b?

Help Super long bootloader boot time

Ok so lately I have noticed that my Phone is taking way to long to boot. When a normal l7 would normal boot the phone, it should got the the LG logo for about 10 sec and then after that it should go to(in this case the Carbon fiber boot animation) for about 30 sec +
But the problem is with my phone the LG logo takes 2min + till it moves to the Carbon fiber boot animation then about 1 min for the boot of the carbon OS (P.S just a side note, it did it with slim bean and CM and still no luck)
I have also used CWM to clear/F reset everything, but it has not made a difference.
Could anyone help me out here?
Is there a bootloader or kernel i need to flash to fix this? or is it because my CWM may be outdated(Shouldent matter) and again I may of missed somthing in CWM so still point out the basics <--These are just ideas
On another side note the phone is a
-p705
-32GB Micro SD card in it
- cwm 6.0.2.8
-Kernel: 3.4.4--Cr3pT-OC [email protected] #1 Sat Feb 8 04:34:03 EET 2014
-(If any more info is needed, just ask)
Link to carbon ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2638321

See if it boots quicker without your microsd card, if it does, then there's your problem. There's a lot of fake/faulty cards being sold on the net.
Otherwise, the LG logo shouldn't be there for 2 min, reflash stock via KDZ.

You need kdz updater to go back to stock, also when you get cwm again
flash cwm 6.0.4.9

[Q] [P705]Bootloop

Hi,
I've been using the paranoid android ROM on my LG P705, but decided to go back to the stock ROM.
I've flashed the V10D_00.kdz file and the stock kernel, but my phone got in a bootloop.
Now I can't enter recovery to flash another kernel and try to fix it. If anyone knows a way to flash and enter CWM again, please help me.

No other solution is to flash thru kdz.
Just search here on our forum for kdz.

Before flashing a kdz to downgrade you must wipe data and format system, if you didnt do it before try the hard reset combo and it shoukd boot, else you must flash a different kdz

Yeah, i've done all of this, I've already used many roms in this phone and others too, but always with CWM. This time I tried to flash the stock kernel, without CWM, and now I don't know what to do for my computer to recognize it as a phone again and flash CWM to restart.
I've only found ways to hard reset with the phone and debbuging mode on or by CWM. Do you know any post that explains how to do by other way?

You can flash CWM fron FASTBOOT, but to boot into fastbbot you need an unlocked bootloader and if you havent cwm probably you are on a locked bootloader.
There is no other way, so flash a new different KDZ that include and unlocked bootloader and CWM
