hello everyone,
Whats the easy way to manually go to Recovery Mode?
i tried vol up and power together but nothing shows up except a blinking color home button.
Do i need to press the home button?
Thanks

Press vol up and power until the lg logo and the boot error message (that appears on top left corner) come up, release power button but keep holding vol up until cwm appears.

is possible to go to "stock recovery" if the phone is not rooted yet and no custorm recovery?
Note: My friends phone has a lot of files and he forgot the pin and its phone is crack and unresponsive screen.

I have E988, and usually what i do to be able to get into recovery would be pressing both power and volume up button at the same time till the first LG logo appears and disappears. Then I release the power button, after which I do combinations of <2 down button presses then press the power button>, up until after the second LG logo appears and disappears, then recovery finally shows up. However I'm not sure about stock recovery though as i have cwm

Its kinda confusing. I tried your method but I only get a black screen and a blinking LED home button when I press the vol down and power together.

Updated to 4.22.651.2 rooted, and now I can't get to recovery or bootloader! I power down the phone and then hold the power button and volume down and nothing happens! When I release the power button it boots instantly! Whats going on?????
SD no functioning.... I think
Either turn off fastboot in settings-applications
or
hold down the power button and instead of power off, use reboot and start holding down vol down as soon as the screen turns off.

That did it
After my phone fell, I popped the battery back in and started it, it started fine, but then I turned on Bluetooth and it immediately restarted, after it restarted it was fine, but then it wanted to turn Bluetooth on again and then it restarted, and it did that again and again.
I also couldn't turn off Bluetooth because it is already turned off, but the phone wants to turn it back on and in that second (the Bluetooth logo shows in the notification bar for a second) it restarts once again.
So if there is anything I can do to disable Bluetooth, I would love it but I don't think there is.
So I want to do a hard-reset because I don't have time to do anything when the phone starts. So I pressed the two volume buttons and the power button, it shows a screen, I choose recovery mode using the volume buttons, and then after I press on the power button to choose it, it shows a dead Android with a red rectangle and an exclamation mark in it, after a while it reboots again, and nothing happens.
I'm running Jelly bean 4.1, non-rooted, on a GSM/Unlocked Galaxy Nexus.
I recently bought this phone and I feel miserable, please help me.

In stock recovery there is a key combination that needs to be pressed to get to get to the options (e.g. Factory Reset)
What is this key combination, I pressed all of the keys to go into the 'boot menu' and after chose recovery mode using the power button.Is there anything else I should do
Select recovery then after u see the droid screen.. Press and hold power then hit the vol up key and release

I honestly don't remember. Once in recovery you have to press a specific combination (maybe volume up + power OR volume down +power) to get to the options menu in stock recovery (dead Android with a red rectangle and an exclamation mark).
:Edit: what LiquidXed said :cyclops:
I managed to get there. do i select wipe data / factory reset
too late, I already did it
Really?

So your making fun of me (I guess), great profile picture by the way.

Test it. Then you'll know if the problem was hardware or software.

thanks dear..............
Took my phone out of my jacket pocket earlier since I thought I could hear a weird buzzing noise every ~8seconds. Looked at my phone and can see it's stuck in a boot loop. I can't hold the power button to turn it off it gets as far as the HTC screen and then goes black. I've tried to get into recovery mode (just holding down the volume - button). It does work to get in there but I only have ~8 seconds before it goes black and reboots again, doesn't seem to be able to pic any of the different options in there though (with - or +)
This phone is stock O2 (EIRE) never been touched not even rooted. Anyone have seen these issues with HTC One X? :crying:
Is there any recommendations that I can do? (key combo) Hoping that when the battery dies it'll go away... doesn't feel to stable though!
I have an idea ...... turn it in for warranty right away
anything to try first?
Hi,
Try this:
Hold power button together with volume down simultaneously till the phone reboots. Still holding both buttons you should go to service menu. Then choose bootloader with using volume key down/up and when the bootloader is selected press once power button. You should go to bootloader menu, from which you select power off and press power menu.
Your phone should be power off.
Then try to press again power and volume down buttons till you gonna gain in service menu. From there you should find and select factory reset and press power button once.
Your phone should be resented and then just reboot.
If everything is correct your phone will be with everything reserved and also your data and settings will be gone, but at least will work. Then you should set again your settings and preferences.
Hope this could help to get your mobile working again.

Thanks dude, that almost worked... got a bit further after factory reset... went to the O2 splash logo and then back to beginning... actually tried it again before hitting reply, wanted to make sure that I actually had time to hit the factory reset before the phone rebooted (8seconds, less actually seems to be 2-3 seconds then a bit longer after...)
I've got a feeling the phone is/has overheated and resetting itself. I think it's rubbish you can't take the battery our of these!
Finally stopped rebooting, battery must be knackered. Will leave it for a while and then start a charge, think it's going into an O2 outlet Monday!
As soon as I started charging the phone booted up and back to loop...
Sorry mate ...like i said, warranty case
I have been using my LG Optimus G for about 6 months now and everything was working fine, untill yesterday.
My phone ran out of battery and i left it over night to recharge. In the morning when i tried to turn it on
the screen just stayed black and it wouldnt start. The only thing i can get out of it is when its plugged in
and i hold the power button for about 10-15 seconds the led light shines red for about 7 seconds.
Other than that i cant do anything with it, cant even get the lg logo or the vibration from the boot.
Tried a hard reset-didnt work
Ive looked a little bit online but i couldnt find any problems like this and i really dont want to buy a anew phone
since ill have to save up for like 6 months
Please help
Thank you in advance
PS: Sucks to have this as my first post
Had also that problem. For me it helped to press the power button as long as it takes untill phone goes on even if it takes some minutes. But if it not help, try to boot in bootloader(volume up+power+home). In Bootloader mode press 2times volume down and power button to get to your recovery. If getting succesfully to recovery make a full wipe and install your rom.

Held the power for 2 min and no effect. And for the second point, what do you mean by Vol up+ Power+Home, because my phone doesent have a physical home button.
Press volume up+ home+ power (all together). Home button which you usualy use all the time, yes that button in the mid, i know its not really pressing so hold your finger on it. After that you will come to the Bootloder mode, in there you should press 2x volume down and then power, this will bring you to your recovery.

Wont work . This looks more like a hardware malfunction.
It seems the battery is not charging. If your phone is not modified in anyway,send it to warranty. If you're rooted and have a custom rom,go to a gsm service,at least to make it turn on. If they do that,flash stock and up to warranty with it.

Hey, so I was messing around with my phone and using TWRP, I deleted the original ROM and then, having forgotten that I'd deleted the ROM, tried to reboot the phone. My phone is now stuck on the HTC splash screen (which at the bottom has the text "This build is for development purposes only...") and won't turn off, despite me holding the power button for probably 1+ minutes. I'm planning to wait until the battery dies, then once I can boot again try to get into TWRP by holding the power button and volume down. Does anyone know if there's a way I can get to TWRP without having to wait until the battery dies (my phone is at full charge), or whether this will not work and I should try something else?
Thanks in advance!
Press and hold power & volume up buttons until the screen turn black then release both buttons and quickly press & hold volume down button only. This will get you to hboot
