[Solved]G2 stucked, can't access recovery TWRP (only down mode or factory hard reset) - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Think I just got my first brick ever since I had android phones. I'm on resurrection remix (cm12) and update last version yesterday with no problems.
Today I tried to flash the latest render kernel R3 and now I'm stucked. After flashing I rebooted phone and now LG logo only appears 2sec and poof deseappers ! I can't get inside recovery (i'm on TWRP) !
I've been digging everythig on internet this morning and nothing can resolve it. I tried ADB to force reboot recovery and he can't recognize my phone (I installed latest lg drivers). However when pluging the phone on PC it open me 10 hard drives on explorer, one only works and has 63,9mb with a folder called "image".
Appart from that I can access download mode, I have an icon "download mode" but nothing happens.
I can also get to factory hard reset but I did'nt try to go further as it indicated that it will erase evrything ? true ? even if my recovery is not stock ?
What should I do ?
Thanks for the help.

Solved ! I was afraid of continuing on hard factory reset but I did ! and went back to TWRP ! amen. I was kind of idiot it cannot factory reset with LG tool since the stock rom is no longer present.
I just re-flashed rom and will not flash kernel since it was the source of the problem for me.
If it can help !

[Q] The bricked Droid PRO details

Yesterday I installed a custom rom
Today I flashed the verizon stock rom to see if that solves the problem (I've done before without any problem, first making a wipe data). But when the process is complete, the phone is stuck at bootscreen logo droid (not at M logo).
I rebooted the phone into recovery mode and did a wipe data.
Then the phone does nothing. I clicked on the Android but nothing happens. I´ve tried making wipe data lot of times but nothing happens. I´ve also tried to flash with 2.3.3 rom (I have 2.3.4) but nothing hapens too.
I can´t turn on debbuging usb mode because of this, so I can´t run a full wipe with ADB. Also, I don´t have any recovery mod or something like that.
Bootloader and stock recovery work both fine. So I think that this an exclusively software issue, but I don´t know how to resolve it.
There is any way to turn on the debbuging usb mode without using Android? Or there is any way to make a full wipe with ADB in this condition? Or what else could I try?
PD: Also tried to make an update of kernel and rom via SDcard, but I always get a signature error.

LG G2 bricked/softbrick

Hi can anyone offer any help.
The story is i was running 4.2.2 and wanted to flash a 4.4.2 rom.So i found OptimusRs Pro 2 Rom For LG G2 V3 and decided to go for it.
i followed instructions upgraded recovery to phils touch etc and flashed the files and all was good..however i booted into recovery to make nandroid backup and it was gone so i tried to re flash phils touch using flashify but nothing happened and when i rebooted back to recovery to check i just got black screen.
I tried a hard reset i get into the page and it shows a few lines on the reset page at the top right kind of under the page if that makes sense..anyway device now will not boot,it remains on LG boot-screen nothing else no sounds and is not recognised by computer to enable me to reflash again using LG tools.
I have tried to install all kinds of lg drivers but nothing works and still can not connect to computer.
One strange thing happens when i do a hard reset it does not complete and boots to black screen and in computer when connected 20-30 drives open and is asked to format and there is a folder called Image.??.I can put device into download mode but no connection to computer and just stays with little download mode icon on black screen.
Please can anyone help me out here.
many thanks in advance,

can not reboot into a custom recovery

I can not use my touchscreen!
For days, i am trying to solve this problem, but still can not, i am really upset about that, i need your help.
Firstly, my device was D802 international and os was 4.2.2
I rooted, installed a recovery, then installed a KitKat with Twrp.
After i wanted to turn on, i realised that the touch screen was not working properly. Actually it is so bad, that you can even not enter the menu of the phone with the touchscreen.
Then i connected a mouse to phone and went to settings. Yes, it was 4.4.2.
I had to install a new rom to solve the touchscreen problem, but i couldn't, what ever i did.
With the offline procedure of Lg flash tool (in download mode), the installation stopped every time in 15% depends on a problem of usb connection.
With the online method, it said that the batery is not enough to contunie. (But it was 100%)
Than wanted to install with Twrp or cwm. I rooted, flash the recovery but can not reboot into the recovery menu of twrp or cwm. When i press reboot into recovery, it directs me to the stock recovery of the phone. (In which there is a lying android with a red triangle above it's body)
I also tried adb(from the custom recovery menu) , pc was recognizing phone but the phone was not reacting to the commands i entered from pc.
I've searced a lot in google but couldn't find a solution.
Please help. What's the problem. What can i do?

You could try this. It worked for me, although, i had a different issue. My phone was not rebooting into recovery due to the "Secure Bootloader Error". Nevertheless, it installed cwm on my phone and i could boot into it. So, you can try it. It may or may not work

Completly messed up LG G2 , very complicated case :X

Hello to everyone here is what happened.
I rooted my LG G2 and i started messing with the uninstal application, after an hour it happened that i uninstaled stuff that i need and when i tried to back it up i couldnt, i noticed that my gallery isnt working, i decided to make factory reset, after the reset i couldnt work with settings-->general-->everything there i try to open says "unfortunetly settings has stopped working"". Then after abit of research i decided that the only way to fix the phone is to flash stock firm, so far so good but i cant enter download mode, actually i cant enter recovery mode with buttons too. Phone is working though, you cant work with settings like turn on USB debugging but phone works otherwise. Then i decided to instal TWRP manager, via TWRP manager i was able to enter android recovery mode, in which u dont have ADVANCE---> TERMINAL COMMAND, so i decided to flash TWRP recovery, after flashing now i cant even open the android recovery mode, phone still boots and works!!! Sorry if i explained it bad, please help i am actually very desperate at this point
bump :good:
Great news, we fixed it thanks to KitKat recovery for LG g2, and to SQL lite, if someone has the same problem i can help him, good luck

LG G2 D802 brick problem (I tried different solutions)

Hello everyone!
I really hope I can find help here. I wanted to install Cyanogenmod 13 on my LG G2 D802 32GB. In the end I think I bricked my phone. I want to mention that I already searched for help on the Internet and tried many tutorials, but nothing helped.
First, I rooted my phone using this One click root method (before, I tried doing that other ways but it didn't work). So far, so good.
Then, I installed TWRP via Autorec. And here came the first problem. I booted into recovery mode and then the phone wouldn't start anymore. I started getting "Security error" along with Lg logo, when I wanted to turn on the phone. Actually I can't remember if I wiped everything in Recovery mode before or after getting this error, but I did anyway. Then I didn't get this security error message anymore, just stuck with lg logo.
Anyway I was still able to get into recovery or download mod, so I tried installing CM. But I couldn't acces my phone memory through PC and I didn't have CM installer zip on the phone. I tried copying CM installer into the phone using ADB push command. It did copy, it said it succesfully installed but since then every time I turn on my phone Lg logo just blinks for a fraction of a second and the phone will not turn on. The screen is black, but it remains "on" (there's nothing on it but you can see it's not totally turned off).
After that I tried every tutorial I could to install CM or stock ROM. I tried downloading different LG firmwares, including one found on a page where I had to enter my IMEI. But it's always the same problem: when I use LG Flashtool ( 1.0.54 ) it gets stuck. After clicking on System Upgrade I'm not asked about the language (as tutorials suggest), but it just opens LGMobile Support Tool, which says that my system is up to date.
OK, I think that's all I can say. So, the main problem is that I cannot use LG Flashtool, which is neccessary to install stock ROM in all the tutorials I have seen. Of course, I would like to install CM 13 still, but now th emost important thing is to get my phone to work again, even on stock system.
I hope we can solve this problem. Thank you all in advance!
Can you boot in download mode?
If you have download mode you can easily reflash stock

If you cant get to download mode you have to reflash all the partitions here is thread

Thanks a lot. I followed the instructions in the first post on the first site that you linked, using kdz file. Everything seemed to go well and I was already happy, but... It seemed that the stock flashed (on the computer it said that the installation was correct, on the phone the screen showed Update Software and it went to 100% percent), then the phone restarted and started updating apps for Android. And that is normal I suppose. But then, after it finished, it turned off, turned on and started installing those apps again. After that it turned off. When I wanted to turn it on, it showed me LG logo and then android logo for a fraction of a second. Then sometimes it would turn off completely and sometimes turn on again and show logos again. I assume that's what is called bootloop. So I followed the tutorial which said I should do factory hard reset. I entered the screen (power+vol down buttons), confirmed two times that I want to do the reset. It said the reset will start automatically, but nothing happened. The phone just turned off immediately and the same situation with logos (Bootlooping?) appears. So the problem now is that I cannot factory reset the phone.

I'm having a similar problem on my vs980 except I can't access recovery anymore but everything else is the same.
Edit: I actually can access recovery
You messed up pretty bad before you fixed a problem, you created another.
Have you tried to go back to stock using downoad mode and kdz?

OK, well, this is strange. The phone is working again, but actually I have no idea why I downloaded the tool from your link, installed it and ran. Then, following the yt tutorial, I went to the step where I was supposed to "look and remember the disk number that have so many partitions". I didn't anything there, though. And then, all of the sudden the phone started updating Android apps and then turned on as after factory reset. Weird, but it's working fine
By the way, can someone post a link to a tutorial on how to install Cyanogenmod 13 on LG G2 D802 32GB? I would still like to install it, but I want to avoid all the problems that I had now. So is there any good step by step tutorial that I could use to install CM?
Anyway, thanks all for help

Sure.
Download the rom from cyanogenmod website and put it on your phone memory.
Download Gapps from opengapps.org and place on the phone memory.
Go to recovery.
Make a full nandroid backup( all the partitions) , wipe all except internal storage.
Flash the rom along with the gaaps zip.
Reboot.
