Hi there,
I'm having a strange behaviour with my recovery. im using TWRP 3.1.0-0 for OP3 from official website.
I encountered this problem some days ago, while flashing a new rom (i'm atm on PureNexus) but I didn't realized how it was happening.
Everytime i get into TWRP, even without doing anything at all, phone gets a full reset (data+internal storage).
I noticed this because I was about to flash magisk and i downloaded it from magisk app (it gets downloaded in /sdcard/MagiskManager/) then after booting into recovery I was unable to find any file from the "install" menu. I then rebooted to system and i got android's first start wizard.

use blusparks twrp
Like earlier, just use the latest blue_spark twrp and you will be fine.
Thanks guys, I've flashed and done a couple of reboots in recovery. Seems fine so far now
Glad it fixed

Hi guys,
I am getting DESPERATE here. Because of a mistake, I had to reflash stock LG ROM 50020d 4.4.2. From there, I rooted using geohot's towelroot and used Flashify to flash this TWRP 2.8.0.0 After 128754E10th attempt, it worked. I experienced all kinds of recovery loops when I used files for 4.2.2 base (because someone mentioned it's needed to prevent brightness issue) but it caused my recovery to go into some strange loop. So I reflashed the recovery.
Now I can enter TWRP 2.8.0.0 but I cannot, cannot, cannot flash yesterday's CM11 nightly for my device. When I try, log says:
Code:
Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset.
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/cm-11-20141101-NIGHTLY-v500.zip'
Error flashing zip /sdcard/cm-11-20141101-NIGHTLY-v500.zip
Updating partition details
I am truly desperate. I even fixed the name of my device in build.prop to v500 (before it was 'awifi' for some reason) but still no dice.
Please, is there someone to give me some clear instructions? Thanks a lot guys.

Have you tried with another build of CM11? Perhaps the latest milestone? Have you wipe:d all the data and cache and stuff? Can you tell me how you got the TWRP on there? Did it work the first time you flashed the 4.4.2 version? Where you on the latest version of android before rooting?
Thanks for your effor, djmiek.
I managed to fix it yesterday. Nothing was out of ordinary - TWRP 2.8.0.0 (specifically for v500) was flashed using Flashify. Phone was rooted (see my original post) and I wiped everything properly before flashing CM11. However, for some reason there was no way to install nightly from 11/1. Everytime I tried to install, I got aforementioned error message.
So I got fed up with all that and just went and restored my whole tablet to a backup from april (50010b) which I very wisely did just after rooting the brand new device. This reverted TWRP to 2.6.3.2 and as soon as I booted recovery I could install that nightly without any hassle. No incompatible data, no bull like that - everything went smoothly. I don't know if there's a problem with TWRP 2.8.0.0 and current CM11 nightly combo but I sure as hell will stay away from it.
So, the moral of the story - BACKUP any working installation folks! Do not underestimate the power of word "restore". It feels goooood

Is 50010b also 4.4.2 or is it earlier? Did you just flash TWRP with flashify then after rooting?
I think it was 4.4.2.
My initial root after purchase was done according to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05T3mYVnYYE
Everything went smoothly then, but I think you'd achieve the same outcome using Flashify.
Hey guys, i have installed CM 12.1 on my LG G3 D855.
Everything seems to work fine and correct.
Only one problem is left, i made a factory reset (in settings), the phone rebooted. It rebooted in Recovery (TWRP) but there it stuck in a boot loop. I removed the batterie and and restarted the device. Now it boots correct, but i think my TWRP is still broken. Is there a way to fix it?
Can i simply use e.g. Flashify app to install TWRP correct again?
Don't ever perform a factory reset or take an OTA update w/ a third party recovery like TWRP installed. You're lucky you were able to get the phone to boot normally. There's probably nothing wrong w/ TWRP, but yes... you can use Flashify again to re-flash recovery.
Okay, i thought it will only reset the CM - specific settings and not the LG ones.
Can i use "OTA"-CM Updates? As i am using the Nighties and there is an Update everyday - or should i just update once a week?
Could there be a problem with my "broken CR?
As you have said I can use Flashify for flash TWRP again, can i use the normal files which are made for stock, or do i have any special CM ones?
Thanks.
It happened with me twice on Lg F220 & LG G2Ls980, stock lollipop firmware and TWRP Recovery was installed on both devices, i just rebooted the device to recovery mode to see which version is installed and explorer the different setting(i didn't activated anything) and reboot back to the system, now every time the device starts, the brightness level go to 100% and screen off time to 2mins. this happened on both of the devices, can some tell me what caused that problem.
Now i have bought an LS980 for myself, i have successfully rooted it and now its time to install a recovery, personally i love 4ext recovery but unfortunately it is not available for this device, i have only option to install TWRP, but now am afraid that if i installed it same problem will occur to me :crying:
""My device has Stock LS980ZVA installed""
Insert sim card or use custom rom. Its not a recovery deal

Never experienced that, after installing a version of TWRP, upgrade to Blastagators TWRP 3.0.2.1 bumped & signed. I don't have the link handy, but searching should find it for you. But i agree, i have never had this happen on any version of TWRP recovery -i thinks it's un-related.

If you have backup then Install your stock rom and its every components such as boot, recovery etc....
Or download the fastboot files from the p2 thread and flash it.
Then properly install twrp.
How can i properly install twrp?.. I mean, i think i always installed in correctly...otherwise magisk wouldn't work., right?. Because it does. I need your help. I even got Safetynet Pass and Root Apps like Root Explorer is working Fine.
Only the Flashing of Custom Roms etc fails for me... It's weird.
Okey. I just redid it like 5 Times. And i got a bit farther.. new boot animation shows up. But still blue led after it stops.
I FINALLY found the SolutioN!!! I used this https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634780916 and did the upgrades per ota. Then adb'd my twrp on my phone. And changed data to ext4. Rebooted. Activated usb debugging again. flashed twrp again(just to be sure), booted into twrp. Formatted system,data,cache,dalvik and then flashed my roms. SUCCESS <3
I have MIUI_XiaomiEU_Stable_10.3.4.0_FIXED installed for a few month. The phone was working but was occasionally restarting spontaneously.
I had this problem also on stock rom.
Today the phone rebooted into twrp recovery and will not boot into system again.
When turned on it boots to twrp. I can als manually get it to boot to fastmode.
I can properly boot to system after I boot into fastboot and do "fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img" .
Any advice on how to fix it ?
What go corrupted ?
Can I fix it by flashing twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img ?
p.s I had the same problem 6 weeks ago. I wiped everything and flashed stock rom using Miflash. I want to avoid it and keep my data if possible.
I'm not sure what's causing the issue, as it might be ROM related, because you said yourself that you had spontaneous reboots on MIUI. But I believe the TWRP you are using might be part of the issue. You should use Offain's version of TWRP found here: https://androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=291011
Use the latest version to avoid bugs. Somehow the 'official' version of TWRP doesn't work properly. Cheers.
