Hey guys,
I've got an LG G3 (D855), I've decided to flash it after wanting to go back to CM. I rooted with purpledrake, then installed TWRP.
Once there I downloaded Liquidsmooth, I backed up and did a wipe then tried to install the rom. It installs fine but the boot animation just loops over and over - I've left it for a while but it doesn't seem to want to boot.
I thought it was a corrupt download so I re-downloaded LS, and also downloaded CM12, after booting into recovery, wiping and flashing both it still doesn't want to get past the boot animation. I even rebooted into recovery and wiped the dalvik cache and no change.
I can reboot into recovery and restore from my backup, so the phone is fine but I just want to know why it doesn't want to boot when I install a custom rom.
Any advice would be appreciated.
So I installed TWRP, fine. Then I accidentally wiped the whole phone. OK, somehow I managed to get AndroidNow flashed and running....but if I try to flash any other ROM with TWRP I just get stuck in a bootloop (LG logo screen). Yes, I did a factory reset before trying ChupaChups, etc. Yes, wiped the usuals.
Solution? I'd like to try other ROMs or even just go back to the beginning.
Edit: solution added
problem:
after flashing a rom (in my case OP3lite or FreedomOS) you can't get past the boot logo
you have access to TWRP, so you can restore nandroid or flash flashable stock OxygenOS packages (tutorial here)
solution:
wipe: Dalvik /ART Cache, Cache, Data, System
flash your rom
try to boot (most likely will get stuck at boot logo)
boot into TWRP > Advanced > Fix Contexts, and swipe to Fix Contexts
Reboot
(wait a while, it might take a few minutes till it boots)

hi,
I'm running official OxygenOS 3.1.3.
Rooted (systemless) , TWRP installed.
I don't have any problems on my rom, but everytime I flash a rom I get stuck at the boot logo.
I can just force reboot, goto twrp and restore my nandroid backup, and my phone works fine again.
But I can't flash any rom.
tried this:
Dirty flash OP3Lite rom - stuck at boot logo
wipe and install OP3Lite rom - stuck at boot logo
Restored nandroid backup, factory format, wipe and install OP3Lite rom - stuck at boot logo
wipe and install FreedomOS - stuck at boot logo
Restored nandroid backup, factory format, wipe and install FreedomOS - stuck at boot logo
wipe, Format userdata throught fastboot, install FreedomOS - stuck at boot logo
update to OxygenOS 3.2.1 (flashable zip throught twrp)
wipe and install FreedomOS - stuck at boot logo
Both roms I tried are OxygenOS 3.2.1 stock based, my problem is most likely not due to the rom I want to flash.
Anyone knows a solution for this?
is it possible that systemless root causes this problem?
are you encrypted? that might be the issue.
backup your internal sd data then go to fastboot and fastboot format userdata then flash the rom you want

I never did format my userdata throught fastboot, so I might be encrypted.
I'll try tomorrow and let you know if that was the solution.
@Abaddon I format my userdata throught fastboot (fastboot format userdata), but still roms wont go past the Logo . any other idea?
did you full wipe?
wiped /system too before flashing a rom then u go and flash the rom + gapps if needed
how long was it at the boot logo? no animation correct?
did u advance wipe - data, caches, system instead of factory wipe, try it 3 times
I did a few wipe 3 times, still stuck at logo.
I get stuck on this logo, never reboot, just get stuck there.
I noticed that it does flash the rom, cause if I restore my nanodroid backup layers and adblock is added.
I also get zero error while flashing in twrp.
I fixed it .
did a fill whipe, then flashed feedomOS, then tried to boot, didnt get past the logo, booted into recovery, selected "fix Contexts" and then rebooted, started without any problem .
doesent work for me..!! any help

Please help without a functional TWRP backup and restore - phone is useless. Only everytime mega unbrick guide needs to be repeated with painful reinstall of apps
hello guys. sorry if I'm a bit slow on this topic. I'm using the the op3t A3010 version (not dure whether I'm at the right forum or not lol) Recently I updated my phone to the new 4.1.7, in which I had already rooted the phone before with magisk v12. But right after the update, as usual, the phone will unroot and yes I did root the phone back by using the magisk v13.0 version. But it failed the safety net. So after a few 'research', I installed the superuser just in case that the safety net will work this time. But this is when it all went wrong. The phone did restart back to factory settings, but the phone is not rooted (checked by using the rootchecker app) So again, I'm back to the twrp recovery, clean wipe all the data, with hope that I can start from scratch which is from installing the magisk all over again. But after this step, it stuck at the boot logo for like more than half an hour. Than at this moment, I restart my phone back to recovery mode by long pressing the power button, and when I try to install both the magisk 12 and 13 version, there is a line of error code on the screen. There's a site that says simply go to the advance setting on the twrp interface, check fix contents and ur phone will be as good as new. After done doing that, I'm now stuck with a phone with no os installed and about 38% battery left. Can anyone help me here? This is the only phone that I had :crying: Urgent help needed here guys
Unless your original installation is without storage encryption (no dm-verity) this will happen. So next time install custom rom after flashing OB22 firmware+modem, then boot patch for dm-verity followed with custom rom and gapps then boot without wipe
i have the same problem but with p9 lite : when i tried a flash lineageOS or ResurrectionRemix my phone stucks at boot logo and when i flash the original os my phone works perfectly
sorry for my english

What is the work around for CWM v6.0.5.1 Philz Touch6; it does not have Fix contexts under Advanced Functions
My issue: Tecno Spark K7 stuck at boot logo after flashing with ported ROM from Infinix XOS Chameleon . Both kernels match
