[Q] My LG L90 (D415) has been bricked... - LG Optimus L90

I was installing a new ROM on my rooted D415 when I realized I forgot to format /System on CWM or else the two ROM's would mix together. Being the person I was... I forgot and now I am stuck at the boot screen. P.S I can not access recovery mode and my computer will not detect my phone no matter how hard I try. I NEED HELP...

You can access recovery by turning off your phone, press together vol- and power buttons. When you see LG logo release and press again power button while still pressing vol-. You will see a screen asking you if you want to format your device. Select YES twice. You should be now in recovery.
Also TWRP is recommended recovery for L90 from what I have heard off.

Optimus 2X ignoring recovery

I'm trying to get into recovery mode for the Optimus 2X(Stock ROM), but I can't seem to get into it.
I hold down the power button and the volume down button and I don't let go. And always one of the following happens :
1.
It goes into SW Upgrade, and I need to remove the battery.
2.
The LG Loading bar freezes for a bit, and this causes a factory reset on my phone.
I don't understand if I'm doing anything wrong, but from how it looks from my perspective its as the phone is ignoring the recovery mode.
I've looked online and through the forums, but I was unable to find a similar issue.
Does anyone know what i could try?
1. Have you installed CWM recovery, TWRP recovery etc?
2. The correct way boot into recovery is : 1st press and hold vol down button, then press and hold power button and release both once you see the blue LG halo.
If you haven't installed recovery yet, Do that using NVFlash tool. You can find that in Development section sticky!! or just search it!

I haven't installed any recovery, I thought that the one fron Android itself would've worked.

Hold power and vol down until it turns on and once it gets to the lg logo, release the buttons and press and hold them again until it gets to the factory reset screen. Hit the power button three times and it will boot into your recovery

Thanks fellas!
The phone has to be powered OFF for the stated and linked methods to work for recovery access.
To power the phone off (if, say, you're stuck in a bootloop),
Press and hold the power and Vol- buttons for 10 seconds do not release, hold for an additional 3-5 seconds. The LG logo will flash briefly. When the screen is black, let go of all buttons. Now the phone is off, you may process to use the previously stated commands to enter recovery.
Hold volume down + power until the LG logo appears....once it appears release the power button and repress it and hold until youre into recovery... :good:

Cannot into recovery ME176CX Lollipop, HELP!

So as title suggest, having hard time accessing the recovery. Cannot into it. So, if you guys dont mind, post here the right combo and sequence, how to access the recovery. I have managed it before, even writen down how its supposed to be done, but doesnt work for me now anymore, the way it used.
// EDIT
And just when i bothered to make this topic, i found how it actually works, by trial and error.
Into BOOTLOADER: Press and hold POWER, then press and hold VOL DOWN, once the logo appears, let go off the POWER, but keep pressing the VOL DOWN until till the bootloader appears.
Past the DEAD DROID, into RECOVERY: Press both POWER and VOL UP, until the recovery meny appears.

Custom Recovery access

Hi everyone, I've been reading several posts on the LG L90, particularly the D415 which is what I have and I do not have one thing clear.
How do I access the recovery mode when i turn the phone?
Yesterday I almost break my phone to test a custom room that was not discharged well, luckily I had a backup. If I did not have the backup, how I would initialized the phone?
Thank you everyone for your comments
Please forgive my English, it is not my native language.
With the phone off, hold VOL - and PWR buttons. When the LG logo appears, release and hold PWR button again. Wait for the blank screen to show up asking if you want to reset your phone, select YES twice and wait. If you have custom recovery, it will boot CWM/TWRP, if you are in stock recovery, your phone is going to reset the factory image IF you still have stock ROM in /system partition.
Another method to complete reset partitions and files to the factory image is to hold VOL + and plug USB cable, you phone will enter in download mode and you can follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/general/guide-flash-stock-kdz-offline-lg-l90-t2803479
Thanks

Nope. I have the same situation and am stuck with the test mode screen when attempt to boot the system. Recovery works fine. Tried the hold both volume buttons and plug into PC, and now have tried this. Always the same screen, nothing about selecting English, just the option to access the Options Menu. Selecting Fastboot takes me to menu where Ican select Recovery, Startup, AND "Boot to FFBM". Have wiped all but internal SD, and "Repaired" System, Persist, Cache. Have tried installing an official ROM and Lineage ROM. No combinations of these have fixed the problem.
Problem started when I was updating the official ROM and decided to try out the FFBM boot option. BIG mistake.
Now am stuck with a system that will no longer boot.

UPDATE: TWRP 3.0.3-0 saved my ass. It permits selection of booting into EDL (9008) mode, bypassed all the PC based commands that weren't working, and I reloaded Zuk factory ROM again. Got past the test mode screen finally. Discovered that I don't care for the original ROM at all, too many Google things I'm accustomed to (Like Google Play store) missing. Added a few things back in, but wasn't worth the trouble. It took me about 15 minutes to refla sh it using TWRP with the latest nightly version of the Mokee ROM for this device (Android 7.1.2) and it works GREAT. Lineage wasn't ready yet.
The only hold over from all my initial problems is that upon boot it acts of if I'm doing the up Vol button action. It goes to the screen where I can press a Vol button and go into the boot loader or just wait 5 seconds for it to carry on booting normally. I don't know how to correct this, but not really a problem.
