Hi, I messed up my installing a ROM so had to get the tablet back to stock, I used the LG Recovery tool, however after it had finished my tablet is now stuck in a boot loop. I've tried running the utility multiple times but it seems to not work.
My tablet is a UK version and the firmware that the utility has installed is V50020D, I dont know if they are compatible or not, if anyone has any idea what to do please let me know.

Now you have to do a factory reset.
LG G Pad 8.3 Factory Reset Mode:
1. With Device Powered Off And Unplugged
2. Press and hold Power Button + Volume Down
3. When the LG logo shows up, release the power button only
4. Now press and hold the Power and Volume Up button while keeping your hold on the Volume Down button
5. When the factory reset screen appears, release your hold on all buttons
6. Follow On Screen Indications

So i've had this a few days and was running with CM Nightlies and TWRP 2700.
I decided to return to stock through the LG Mobile support tool, but now i'm stuck in a boot loop.
I'm unsure of how to enter recovery, as the instructions in the "All Things Guide" are a little confusing and don't seem to work.
I can get into download mode, and have tried running the lg support tool again to no avail.
Pretty sure i just need a factory reset to clear the loop, but how can i do this without recovery or adb?
Thanks
EDIT: Nevermind, found a tutorial on youtube showing how to enter recovery

You can get to recovery with Physical buttons
Holding Vol Down + Power
When LG logo appears release Power while still pressing Vol Down
While still holding Vol Down, press and hold Vol Up and Power
You'll see a black screen with a "Factory hard reset" button", Press the Power button a few times until it boots into Recovery
I have a F400K G3 (Korean Olleh). It's rooted and bumped. I flashed the bumped TWRP image via Flashify and rebooted recovery via Flashify. It works. But when I try boot to recovery from a complete shutdown. It just boots into safe mode. I did exactly what was stated in the Bump thread (Power+V. Down, when logo appears, release then press again quickly) and also tried substituting V. Down button with V. Up, but it still wont boot to recovery. It just keeps going into safe mode. The video provided in the thread was using an AT&T model so maybe it differs from every variant. I want to know if I'm doing something wrong or the instructions are wrong.
Thank you.
You tried without releasing? Just keep holding buttons

I have tried it as well without releasing. Does the same thing. And it never shows the reset screen. It just goes directly to the boot animation. Rebooting from Flashify also doesn't show the reset screen but it does get to TWRP. But I need to boot it from complete shutdown because I'm gonna test a Flashable zip ROM without root so rebooting using Flashify would be impossible.
Bump.
Seriously. Anyone?
I am subscribing because I have the exact same problem. I have tried every key combination I could find for the G2 and G3 but no luck...
This is exactly the kind of problems you get when using stuff like Flashify. The holding of the buttons etc you mentioned should work. Are you sure you aren't connected using a micro usb?

No, I am not connected to USB. If I reflash the recovery using ADB will it work? But I do have some worries because I'm using KitKat bootloader on a Lollipop Stock-based ROM (here) and I think I may get some errors.
It's not very important right now because I have root now and can reboot to recovery using Flashify.
I think all korean models cant enter recovery via hardware keys, mine is F400L and have the same problem.
Untouched LG G3
I have a completely untouched LG G3 uk version only official software no root etc and mine won't go into hard reset mode. I have tried 3 or 4 times it always goes into safe mode

Turn off the phone completely. Press and hold Power and Volume Down. When the LG logo appears, release. After a split second, press volume down and volume up. White screen asking you to reset will appear. Press Yes two times using Volume buttons.
UP!!!
Any remedies? I justed from stock to cm12 LG g3 F400L..
Cant go to recovery mode. Cant flash anything..
Same prob,always going to safemode.f400k rooted,cloudy2.5
i've Lg g3 F4ooL and using Resrruction remic 5.5.5
I stuck in a Bootloop and my device is also not booting into Recovery or safe Mode.
Lg flash Tool is also not Connecting to my device in Downloadmode.
I think There is NO solution At ALl
Has anyone solved this issue?
to get in recovery on F460s, worked on mine, Press Vol-up + Power, as the logo appears release the keys and press Vol-up + Vol-down, you will boot into recovery.
I have the same issue, cant go into recovery using hard buttons on F400K. Any one able to succeed in this?
Same issue on LG G3 F460S, no combination of power + volume buttons + releasing them and pressing again when LG logo appears works. The device go straight into booting system and gets stuck. Is there any other method - maybe short-circuit some pins on the motherboard, to boot into recovery or do a system reset? Please...
OK, turns out that the combination is different for Korean models of G3, as misbah711 wrote, volume UP + power, when logo appears, release and press both volume UP + volume DOWN. If that does not work, try again, but release only the POWER button and press immediately volume DOWN (while volume UP was held all the time). Also, I first tried it without the back cover, as I have to remove battery to turn it off, did not work. Then with the cover it did, not sure if it's an important detail or not.
However it's not the end of the story for me. An image with Korean text appears, and nothing. No combination of power and volume buttons pressing does anything. I'm attaching the image. Also tried a web service to do Korean OCR and then used Google Translate - does not make any sense. Could anyone advise how to proceed and do a factory reset on this device? It won't boot into the system (gets stuck), no adb or any other communication with it.
Edit:
Turns out that when the Korean text appears and I connect USB cable to my PC, adb works correctly. Typed:
adb reboot recovery
The phone rebooted into recovery and now I'm doing a factory reset on it. Looks like all will be fine.
i have d851 on stock kitkat. I flashed TWRP and Philz but no way i can get into recovery mode. it always goes to fastboot mode no matter how I reboot into recovery. Now i am looking for stock recovery image. or a way to fix the twrp/philz. ROM boots just fine.
Hi
I'd be really really grateful if all of you clearly (more) knowledgeable (than I) could help me.
My phone is a D855 (32gb/3gb) international model which was running on stock v5.0.
I ran v1.3 of the one click root method. and completed the whole process (or so I thought ). However, after the process said it had completed, I removed the usb cable and now find that I am stuck at the LG Logo.
Pulling the battery makes no difference. Once reinserted and power back on, the LED on the top left blinks but no boot.
I have tried to enter download mode (by removing the battery, holding the volume up button and inserting the usb cable) but again, no joy.
Can anyone please tell me what I need to do recover the situation.
Many many thanks
Update: I managed to get into recovery by turning off the phone completely and then pressing and hold Power and Volume Down. When the LG logo appeared, release. After a split second, then pressing volume down and volume up. At the white screen asking you to reset, I pressed Yes two times using Volume buttons. Saw the screen that said erasing data but still stuck at the LG logo.
Can anyone help please?
Update 2: managed to get into download mode by powering down (took the battery out) then holding the volume up button and inserting the usb cable.
What do I need to do next?
hello, you need either the lg mobile suite software or lg flash tool 2014 and a kdz
I would go for lg mobile suite - it will offer an upgrade or select it manually
also -- see the guide from hyelton in g3 general (getting back to stock)
Hi, I'm trying to find a way to try to recover an LG D680 smartphone. I have a weird problem with it. It used to get stuck on LG's Logo boot. I used Download Mode and LG Mobile Tool to fix it and update it. Everything was ok but 1 month later this happened again, but this time it cannot get fixed.
I tried to reinstall software through KDZ and flash tools (2014) in Normal and CSE mode. I tried Iusacell (AT&T) images (V10A_, V10B_, V20A_ and V20B_) wich are Jelly and Kitkat versions of images. Last I tried to reinstall with V20A_ Factory Free image and still problem, but now there's another problem. It seem that there are not really hardware issues since device is correctly recognized in Windows System, can enter Download Mode, LG Flash Tool can still manipulate hardware (Install, reboot and finish install). The new problem is that even after reinstalling any of the images it keep looped and stuck at the "Android Hard Reset" icon, the one of the Android with the red triangle.
I tried using fastboot and adb but devide is not recognized by fastboot device even after installing drivers.
Is there another way to completely wipe ROM and install System and Boot clean? I already have system.img and boot.img files, but can't find a way to do this nor what I do works.

If it is looping on LG's boot animation, then you should boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset from there - saved me from sending my E988 to service last time I flashed stock. Try one of these recovery combos: Vol Up + Power, Vol Up + Vol Down + Power, Vol Up + Home + Power, one of those should work. My E988 uses Vol Up+ Power - have to press both while device is powered off, and keep them pressed until capacitive buttons flash twice. Not sure how will that work on D680 though (is that a G Pro Lite?)

Yep! It's an G Pro Lite. I'm still trying some of th combinations. What is stock recovery? Should it show more options than just hard reset?

If it's anypart similar to ones found on E98x, it will have only hard reset, update install and reboot options. I really don't know much about Lite series, probably there is more info about recovery in their subforum here.
Hi, I have an LG G4 that is boot looping, I have changed firmware in the past using LG UP and factory reset G4's before.
But when I hold volume up and plug in the usb cable, it goes to the 'download mode' screen but never reaches the firmware update screen, anyone had this problem before? This happens every time I try.
And when I try to do a factory reset by holding vol down and power and release and re pressing the power button it goes into the factory reset options, but it freezes on the last screen and won't actually start resetting.
So I can't use LG UP or LG flash tool as it won't go into firmware update mode.
Any Ideas?
Thank you.

Open "Device Manager" in windows and see if windows is not changing your device driver automatically...
I have got it to go into firmware update mode, and I used LG UP to install 5.1 firmware and used the big core disable tot, it was up and running fine, then suddenly turned off.
Now it's boot looping again and when i go to go into recovery mode, it's on the download mode screen and just goes black and turns itself off again.
Any ideas?
