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
Thanks for your help

Hi all,
what can i do?
You sure that what you're trying to perform is a hard reset, not a mere soft-reset?
If yes, this is really weird. Try flashing your ROM again.

If you are trying to perform a hard reset and it doesn't work and phone won't reboot, then only other option you have left is to put phone in bootloader and flash stock/cooked rom.
Does phone reboot ok? Are you actually performing a hard reset i.e. turn phone off. Hold down vol up & vol down and then phone on while still holding down vol buttons. You will then be presented with a white screen with text asking you to press vol up once again to restore factory settings.

If it doesn't help try to flash a cooked or stock rom but I recommend you to first try the hard reset.

Bootloader is the tri-coloured screen you are getting
If you can get phone in bootloader then you can still flash new rom.
First of all try a hard reset by doing the following:
1. Turn phone off
2. Hold down vol up & vol down
3. Continue to do No.2 and turn phone on
4. You will then be presented with a white screen with text asking you to press vol up once again to restore factory settings.
Once complete if phone still doesn't reboot you will need to flash new rom by doing the following:
1. Turn phone off
2. Hold vol down button only
3. Continue to do No.2 and turn phone on
4. You will be presented with bootloader screen (tri-colour screen)
5. Connect phone to pc and bottom of screen text should change from 'serial' to 'USB'. If this doesn't read cRaCKwHoRe's guide (see link below) as you may need to update pc drivers.
6. Now flash original stock rom from which you have downloaded from wiki. You can find stock roms here. To flash rom you will need to run ruu file from pc (this is rom you have downloaded)
Make sure you only flash original stock rom which was already on your phone. If you want to flash other roms you will need to follow cRaCKwHoRe's guide
I'd recommend reading the wiki so you understand more about the process and you phone
Good luck and keep us informed
Hey Guys,
After downloading the newest OTA-Update for my Note, it rebooted itself and is now stuck in the boot animation. I only hear the Samsung-Jingle once, but after that it keeps playing the animation over and over. I plugged the Note in and let it go all night, thinking it was part of the upgrade, but this morning it was still looping. I am not using a Root or Custom Rom - this is all stock.
I would appreciate any pointers and insight! Thanks.
Try booting to recovery (volume up + home + power) and do factory reset and wip cache.
Thanks for the reply.
I tried the VolumeUp-Home-Power: The phone will start, I can see the little Android with the status bar, but then it just moves on to the regular boot animation and I am right back in the loop.
Takes a Couple of tries, otherwise try download mode, volume button down, home button and power button. Then connect to PC and flash stockrom with odin.
Its tricky getting it right. Turn off phone, turn on and emediately press the button combos.
From recovery you can do a factory reset or clear dalvicc cache. Clearing this cache solved most of my bootloops.

Pull the battery out and put back in after 3-5 secs. Hold VolumeUp + Home + Power till u can see "Galaxy Note N7000" screen. then it ll boot in Recovery mode. here u can do "wipe / Factory Reset" and "Wipe cache". then after Just select Reboot.
This method should work. if you unable to get into recovery mode, then i guess something went wrong with OTA update. So you have to flash the Official ROM using PC Odin. You can find link to update Official ROM in my signature.
I am getting errors on my phone and want to factory reset. What is the best method to do this? I have rooted developer edition.
There's always factory reset on the settings menu. Or use RSD Lite to flash the current firmware.
Is your bootloader unlocked?
I've never had great success with the Factory Reset in the settings menu.
I would use the option in Recovery. Turn the phone off and enter recovery by holding Power and VOL DOWN for about 4-5 seconds. Release and navigate with VOL DOWN button. If you go past an option, keep tapping VOL DOWN to cycle through again. VOL UP is "enter", power shuts the phone off.
Press VOL Down to get to Recovery and then press VOL UP to select it. Your phone will boot into recovery and you will see a dead android icon (chest open). When you see this, press both VOL UP and VOL DOWN together and release. You will then see options in recovery for performing a factory reset.

Several ways...
Settings -> Backup & Reset -> Factory Data Reset
Boot the phone in fastboot/bootloader mode, from the PC... fastboot erase userdata
Boot into recovery, and reset from there (in TWRP its under Wipe)
Thanks, had to flash stock because the other methods still left phone with issues.
That's what I always do. Wipe everything in fastboot, flash in fastboot.
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.

I don't enter in the fastboot mode. The phone is blocking in mode FFBM and I can't touch de bottoms on display
Press & hold Vol+ and Vol- - now press (and hold) Power until phone vibrates. Release power key.
If there is a new screen, release Vol keys,
Select ENGLISH and shutdown.
Now restart phone

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.
