Hi guys,
So I had a stock T-Mobile LG G4 H811 that I had unlocked and booted into twrp version 3.1.1-1-g4. I wasn't able to actually flash recovery of this .img becuase of a write failure. So I booted into it instead and then installed it from within twrp into the recovery partition. The actual stock software was the ORIGINAL original, which I think was android 5.1.1
From there, I cleared the cache and delvik cache and installed the G4-H811-10N-xTreme-2.0 Rom. Now, I can't boot into recovery mode anymore, and all I get is the bootloop.. but it's not dead yet because it's a software issue on my part and not a hardware failure.
Any advice on how to get it to recovery mode or at least so I can boot into twrp somehow to try and get this fixed? I tried Power+Volume Down and then let go a sec and Power+Vol Down again and it won't work at all. Just goes straight to bootloop.
Thanks in advance.. I know I screwed up somewhere.. just so many loopholes, it's easy to miss.
Best,
Johnnie
Got somewhere, still broke
Well, somehow I managed to boot into recovery mode only 1 time and installed the stock Tmobile rom. It installed, but now I get a white T-Mobile screen on boot up and it stays there. I tried using the LG Flash Tool 2014 and the stock T-Mobile H811 10N firmware for T-Mobile, but all I get is connection to server errors and the software won't install to the phone over download mode. Anyone else have this problem? I've been trying to figure this stupid thing out for 6 hours. Also, I'm wondering if installing the stock firmware caused the original recovery partition to go back to stock too which is the reason I'm no longer able to boot into recovery mode? It just doesn't recognize it. Power+vol down and then vol down doesn't do anything.
When using the LG Flash Tool 2014, all I get is Connection to Server Failed, Try again. So I do, and nothing. It fails at 9%
Thanks.

can somebody please help me? my screen just went black at work today and it does nothing at all now. if I hold the power button it vibrates once. if I hold power+volume down I get to recovery. I tried to reboot from there and I get the unlocked bootloader warning screen and from there it just goes to a black screen. so I get back to recovery and installed my back up and that didn't help at all. somebody please help me.
So the bootloader is unlocked, what else have you done to the phone?
You may need to reflash it with rsdlite.
OP you need to provide more details. are you getting the M logo? is it bootlooping? is the phone doing ANYTHING but getting in to recovery?
load the fastboot menu and use mfastboot to flash the system, boot and recovery images. you should be able to bring the phone back to life without losing data.

the only thing ive done to the phone is put xposed framework on it and gravity box. that was prob a month ago tho. this is the first prob ive had with the phone.
You may want to follow this guide to return the phone to stock firmware:

You could also try commenting out the line that overwrites user data so you don't lose your data.
Try plugging your phone into the original charger and then boot to recovery, from their try rebooting while still plugged in. If that doesn't work try this again but wipe just the caches and reboot while plugged in. I have had a screen go black before on other devices and plugging the original charger(car and most others didn't work) in and booting to recovery then rebooting would get it working again.
PS When you boot to recovery check your battery level.
well...I used the moto x toolkit and returned to stock using that. everything booted up. so far everything is looking good. lost all my data but that's not that big of a deal.

I'm new to the development side of Android and I bought a ROOTED phone from a Co-worker. Well my phone tried to do a software update and the phone is stuck in a CWM boot loop. Me not being familiar with CWM or ROOT, I pressed the factory reset button in CWM. Now I am unable to fix it. I have tried ADB sideload to load ROMS to the phone. They will say they are installed but then it will just go right back to CWM. I am trying the LG flash tool now but my phone will not go into download mode. Can anyone help me, please. I love this phone....

Can you get into clockwork mod without it looping
If not try command
Adb reboot recovery
Chances are previous owner has some Roms saved on the SD card
In the download folder
Keep in mind Roms are carrier specific on this phone
Yes it boots into CWM recovery and I accidentally wiped everything. I am trying to use the LG flash tool but it will not even go to download mode....
In recovery factory reset clear your cache and dalvic
And try sideload again,if it doesn't work try pushing the file with adb
If you can't get that pm me and I'll troubleshoot with you.
D950 on LG logo
I have a D950 only boots to the LG logo. I rooted the phone and then tried to install CWM. I didn't know about Freedom Flex then, so i used a forum post to try and do it. I successfully got CWM on the phone, but now it won't boot past the LG logo (also boots to CWM, I think it'll go into download mode). I'm not sure if I did any of it correctly, but I've tried CWM, ADB, LG Flash Tool, Odin, etc to somehow get the phone working again to no avail. I'm not even sure if anything can connect/detect the phone. If there's nothing I can do then fine, but if anyone can help/try to help please do. It was a nice phone an i'd love to have it working again, its been so long.
Hey guys as the title States I have my old d950 g flex that I ended up selling to a friend. The phone was rooted on the stock ROM, well all was good when I sold him the phone but being is a unlocked at&t phone when we got it did automatic ota updates which at that point bricked the phone. So now at this point the phone only boots to custom twrp recovery . shows the LG logo then goes straight to twrp every time. I've tried wiping the data, DAV cache, etc still to no avail to fix the boot. Now I've tried to get it into download mode so that I can flash it back to stock but the phone will not enter download mode. Every time it still goes to twrp. Is there a way to force it to Download mode so i can flash back to stock using rhe flash tool. And or even a way just to flash back to stock without the flash tool and download mode ? I've been searching and trying to get to work for days to no avail. So if you guys could help I'd greatly appreciate at the point were I'm about to just throw the phone in a fire and then have to give my friend his money so I'd really not want to do that lol so please help if you can. Thanks in advance
Update:*** So after searching the internet for days finally found out this fix for bootloop (recovery or normal bootloop) because of the phone being stuck in twrp recovery upon boot it would not let me go into download mode. I did this fix.." http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/fix-stuck-custom-recovery-trying-ota-t2907508 "and phone immediately booted as normal then was able to flash back to stock using flash tool as ive been trying to do for days now so if anyone has bootloop issues forward to this thread
Hey Xda-ers,
I'm freakin out about my phone. I was using hangouts this morning and it just rebooted itself and got stuck on boot screen. It has NEVER done this before and always worked fine. I was on USS Enterprise ROM I believe. I can only get into download mode, so naturally I tried to flash stock h81120o (the version I was already on and rooted) and LGUP completed fine. Only my bootloader was still unlocked and it still was stuck on boot screen. Does anybody know what I can do to at least relock the bootloader so I can do a warranty claim with T-mobile....or get my phone back working if this is not catastrophic.
Oh I also tried holding down & power, no recovery...and cannot use the buttons to factory reset either. Then it loops and get stuck again.
Ditto

Did you ever find an answer to this ? Almost the same thing happened to me , i updated H81120p Extreme and phone booted back into Boot Screen and stayed there forever. I tried flashing H81120p using LGUP but am stuck on boot screen still.

How can i tell if this is indeed a hardware issue ? I am guessing it is though also the serial number falls in the problem range.
Hi all,
I have put myself in horrible situation look like phone is bricked . I can not start my phone in recovery or download mode even.
here are the series of step I had performed:
1)Unlock bootloader and intalled latest twrp-3.0.2-1-h815.img 16.5M 2016-09-15 07:23:54 EDT for ( since 815/811) has same twrp on twrp website.
2) tried to install lineage OS rom for 811 but the recovery gave me problem that device is 815. Please install 815 rom, so I flashed 815 and it flashed fine and device booted and worked fine.
3)Now the problem starts, it crashed after some time and stuck in boot loop.
4)I had tried to boot in recovery and tried to restore back up image, but it crashed in the middle and after that I was not able to start to recovery.
5) Then I used the LG UP and flash kdz file H811V20r_00_0111.kdz for stock rom.
6) It flashed successfully, but device never got boot up and now I am unable to go to download mode.
7) Displaying small download mode symbol but device is stuck on the symbol and not going to Download mode.
I am stuck now, Is there any solution to come out of it. Please help me.
Thanks
Now my phone starts into download mode, and I flashed the original kdz h81120v_00_0425 using download mode, after flashing first time, it went to opitmizing Apps screen but restated in middle.
After that I tried multiple times sing hard reset, but it always freeze on 2nd screen when I press yes to reset.
I flashed kdz multiple time using LG up, but it stuck on LG logo with unlocked boot loader msg. not going to the bootloop.
Current condition is now I am unable to enter download mode it respond but freeze before entering download.
I can not hard reset as it always freezes on 2nd hard reset screen and not formatting.
No charging.
I am not sure, If this is some hardware issue or emmc fault , Please help me on this..

Pressing power button it stuck on LG logo with unlocked boot loader msg. not going to the bootloop.
I am unable to enter download mode, it responds but freeze before entering download showing 4 blue dots.
I am able to enter recovery but I can not hard reset as it always freezes on 2nd hard reset screen and not formatting.
No charging, Device Manager shows nothing.
Is there a way to recover??
