HELP!!! Device in bootloop, No recovery mode, download mode worked - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installing OTA UPDATE for my MIUI rom and now I have bootloop, recovery mode dont working but have download mode.
I have very important data on my device! If I flash kdz at now, all my data was removed!
Help!

Sice recovery mode is lost i am afraid you wont be able to save the data. You can still try by switching it off. Power it on and release power button and as soon as you see lg logo long press the power button until it shows yes or no option

[Q] Verifying recovery mode

I am rooted and my attempt to install TWRP was unsuccessful, the ADB kept failing to keep a connection with the phone.
I want to verify that I can install the ZVA update without an issue. When I try to enter recovery mode it wont work. Tried holding the vol down and power wait for LG logo, release and hold power button until it enters recovery but it just powers down again. Using a different method I did get it into a recovery mode with the android guy and some really small writing with options in the upper left corner. IT says "Android System Recovery <3e>" Is this the factory recovery mode? How can I tell if I have the wrong recovery mode(s)?
bump
3e is stock recovery so I'd say you're good to flash.

A failed ROM flash shouldn't affect your /recovery partition. Unless it included a Recovery of course. What ROM did you flash? Your Kernel is probably stuck trying to load a non-existent user space (no ROM/bad system partition).
Make sure your device is fully powered off by holding the POWER button for 30 seconds. This will make sure your device is OFF.
I know you've tried one of these methods, but try both of these methods to access recovery JUST IN CASE..
Method 1 (JB Bootloader).
Turn device OFF. Press and HOLD Power + Volume Down. When the LG Logo appears let go of both buttons and again press and HOLD Power + Volume DOWN.
Method 2 (KK Bootloader).
Turn device OFF. Press and HOLD Power + Volume Down. When the LG Logo appears let go of both buttons and HOLD Volume UP + Volume DOWN.
Can you access Download Mode?
Turn phone OFF. Hold Volume UP and plug phone into PC via USB.
thank you for the fast reply, I tried it but I can´t access recovery mode.
But download mode is working, what would be the next step?

Return to Stock :good:.
I'm curious though.. what ROM did you try to flash?
I´m downloading right now thanks for your help.
But there are a few questions I would like to ask what does the download mode look like? I know it´s kind of a silly question but it shows
"firmware update
do not unplug the USB connection until the process is complete
0%
USER B84
ROOTED"
on my device is that normal? and my other question is am I going to lose all my data after flashing that kdz?
edit: I flashed a stock lp rom and it showed SystemUI error after boot so I couldn´t use it at all, at this point the button combinations for the recovery mode weren´t working,too but after waiting some time the SystemUI error was gone and I could use my phone for a few seconds so I kind of managed it to enter into recovery mode an tried to flash the latest darkobas rom but that failed...

Yes, that's the normal Download Mode screen.
B84 is your Battery Percentage.
The ROOTED text is just telling you that your phone has been Rooted.
When flashing your KDZ you have 2 options.. CSE Flash and Normal Flash.
CSE Flash will wipe all partitions. Choose this if you want to start fresh.
Normal Flash will wipe some partitions and keep your data.
Don't change any of the other options!
I recommend you do a CSE Flash too be honest. I haven't messed with Lollipop enough and have never done a Normal Flash over it.
for some reason it is failing at 2%

Is that using Normal Flash?
Have you tried CSE Flash?
What model variant of the G2 do you have?
Lollipop changes your partition scheme a little so trying to flash a KK KDZ over a Lollipop partition scheme will cause errors, unless you do a CSE Flash. This is also why once you flash LP you can't just flash a KK ROM afterwards. First you need to revert your partition scheme back to what KK needs.
So with all that said.. do a CSE Flash. If you're rooting and flashing data using custom recovery you should always have a back up of all your data/media on your PC anyway .
it´s the same using both methods normal and cse :/
I have the d802 version, and I´m trying to flash a lollipop kdz, should I try it with a kitkat one?
I also found this thread but I don´t know if it´s useful because I need working recovery for it to work I think

Yes try a KK KDZ. If the KK KDZ continues to fail, try the TOT Method (the TOT method is under the KDZ method).
Yes that's the post I made a while ago.. which I was going to possibly link you to if you had a D802 .. but I forgot you can't seem to access Recovery at all.

How do I boot into recovery from a bootloop?

I flashed a wrong file in twrp and my phone went into a bootloop. I want to boot into recovery to reflash the ROM but I can't do it, the phone is stuck into a continuous bootloop (stuck at the Samsung logo and vibrating over and over again). I can boot into download mode using vol down + power + home, but vol up for recovery isn't working.

1. Boot in DOWNLOAD MODE and flash the correct TWRP via ODIN again. Done.
2. If the step 1 doesn't work. Boot in DOWNLOAD MODE, reflash STOCK rom and reflash the TWRP, the one good for your device. Done.

Secret mode wasn't working in the Samsung browser so I flashed a zip that I found on xda that supposedly fixes this issue and cleared the cache and dalvik cache. I don't see how this could have erased twrp from my device. I currently don't have acces to a computer so I can't use Odin, is there really no way to force shutdown it or something?

Enter download mode, once you are in download mode press at the same time power + home + volume down button. As soon as the screen goes black release the volume down button and press the volume up button immediately, then it will boot up to TWRP

Does the recovery mode start with the combination of buttons?
delete the android folders from internal and external storage, wike both caches and reboot

not, the recovery dont enter with any method it closes iand the phone reboots and again and again...
pull the battery out, wait about 5 to 10 seconds, put it back in, press and hold volume down, the home button and press power until it vibrates, when it vibrates release power but onctinue holding the other two until recovery starts. If it doesnt start, then its a good possibility that your recovery is borked, in which case you can just reflash it with odin. and the way to get to odin mode is similar to the above steps, but its volume up instead of down

LG OPTIMUS L7 cannot access recovery mode

Hello there. My LG Optimus L7 was lagging to much with it's stock rom so I decided to flash a custom rom to it. So I rooted my phone, installed CWM, and then using Rom Manager app I rebooted to recovery mode, before that I was trying every combination I found on the internet about how to enter the recovery mode, but no success. Anyway, after rebooting into recovery I installed CM 10, but the phone got stocked into CM boot loop. Now I can't access recovery mode to reinstall the rom, or install a new one. I also tried emergency mode (holding the vol up then plugging the usb cable) , which didn't work either. How can I enter the recovery mode? Please help! Is there any way to access the recovery mode without the buttons combination in this state(when phone is soft bricked) ?

I cannot access recovery too! I have TWRP installed but i tried every combination on internet and till can't access it Do somebody know any combinations to get into it?
I remember that once upon a time I was able to enter the recovery. But only once. I pressed randomly all buttons and succeeded. More times have I failed
Maybe it is the newest recovery fault.
I have the same problem. solutions?
V10 - power and volume lower (-) after the lights turn on release power and volume buttons and press only home button
V20 - power, volume lower and home, when you feel a vibration release all the buttons
