Had custom recovery, now can't enter - LG Optimus G Pro

OK so what is happening is I'm getting a secure boot error.
From the start I rooted the gpro using towelroot..I was on a stock 4.4.2 image I think 20h?, then from there checked root, once I had root I installed chainfires su, dl'd the spinx gpro recovery and dl'd freegee and installed cwm 6.0.4.7. That was a while ago and at that time I had installed blisspop 2.0, loaded apps ect, ect and all good. Never been s fan of cwm so tried installing twrp thru freegee but it wouldn't work. I dl'd vanir and was gonna go into recovery but one I tried I got a secure boot error..[emoji27]. So I figured trying to flash twrp wiped the cwm, so I went back to freegee and tried reflashing cwm and that also failed. Tried using gpro recovery and the freegee cwm but no dice. Anyone have this problem and to get a custom recovery installed or do I need to lgflashtool back to stock and start fresh?

[Q] Stuck in Recovery (HELP)

Flashed a new recovery over, tried to install supersu from a rooting process. Rebooted into recovery then backed up rom, formatted everything etc. tried to install several different roms using TWRP and Clockwordmod. CWM gave me a status 7 error and TWRP gave me the error updating binary script. It also said that i had no root and would like to install super su to root it. i said yes and then rebooted and it still did nothing. the only thing i can install are GAPPS files and files that ARENT ROMS. Im stuck and I need desperate help on how to fix this. ODIN wont flash the stock rom thats a tar file but will flash recoveries. PLEASE HELP ME

can't boot into recovery (TWRP, CWM different flashing methods -- nothing works)

hey all, im stuck running the jedi elite rom (apps constantly FC, laggy, bulky) and so I downloaded AOSB rom. I booted into recovery, which was TWRP 2.6.3.8 i believe, maybe .9. I made a full backup, then I tried to install TWRP 2.7. I flashed the .zip file from the official site, then after flashing, i went to main menu, reboot, then i hit recovery. when it went to reboot into recovery, it got stuck on the black startup screen, it says
RECOVERY BOOTING....
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit : recovery

this didnt bother me, as thats what it normally says when it boots up, but this time it was stuck. I downloaded Odin 3.09, then downloaded the TWRP 2.7 .tar and installed that, it booted into my old rom, and i tried to boot into recovery from there, same result. I used odin to boot back into the rom, downloaded goomanager, and downloaded the older 2.6.3.9 recovery and everything installed fine as far as i can tell, rebooted into recovery, nothing. I used odin to flash a CWM recovery, same results. It seems recovery is broken. Can anyone help me? I just want stock, AOSP android, tired of TouchWiz's bullcrap.

Version 2.7 of TWRP requires that you have the new 4.4.2 bootloader. Have you installed the new 4.4.2 bootloader?
If not, then downgrade your TWRP version to the previous one.
ah, no I haven't. How do upgrade the bootloader? And am I fine to flash the 4.4.2 AOSB ROM on TWRP 2.6.3.9?

Think I messed up this time

I just restored my phone to stock and then rooted, and installed cwm, but I tried to install that new G3 skinned ROM but it needs TWRP so I tried to install TWRP, got the .zip and flashed the recovery. Now I have no recovery at all... When I try and boot to recovery nothing happens, hangs at the LG logo. I didn't install gapps this time because I only had the CM11 on my SD card as a safe guard incase the G3 skin rom failed. I've tried using goomanager and rom toolbox to install a recovery but they all say device unsupported. Is there a way to adb install a recovery?
Couldn't figure it out so I reverted to stock again, was the quickest route to my destination.

Twrp should still be there. That rom you installed probably had a incompatible kernel which is what is sending you into fastboot. If you cant get into recovery for some off the wall reason flash back to stock with a tot or kdz.
any off the wall ideas on how to get into recovery

Am I to understand this as you installed the TWRP Manager apk? Or do we read this as TWRP is the recovery you had originally installed? (Not trying to be funny here)
If the TWRP Manager was used from within the ROM, instead, use Flashify to reflash the recovery, not TWRP manager. Get the IMG file from HERE first, and tell flashify where you saved it.
If you are completely unable to boot as well as not access recovery, you will have to start from scratch. Follow THESE instructions to get back to stock and start over. (Choose Restoring Stock/Removing Root Flag)

TWRP Recovery for 20d

Hello ,ive been browsing many threads about getting TWRP recovery to work on v20d ,but with no succcess.
First i was rooted a while ago by ioroot.
Today i tried the ABOOT+TWRP tool by editing the batch file ,then it installed all the files and rebooted normally.
After that i used flashify to check if the recovery has been flashed ,and it rebooted to stock recovery.
Now i tried flashing recovery with TWRP manager ,result - Secure boot error.
Tried reflashing with flashify again ,still same error.
Any ideas how to finally get it working?

You will have to reinstall 4.2.2. using LG Flash tool to get TWRP working again.. here's a tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53140473&postcount=14

EDIT: factory reset and reflash, and repating the aboot+twrp toolkit process helped.
