cant boot or install and stuck on bootloop

Hey guys.. excelent ROM...

Having some problems, searched and searched and havent found any answer, hope you can help me...

I have tried 3 or 4 times to flash the rom, only 1 time booted to android and then nothing...

Flash de KK broadband, and then the rom, wipe dalvik cache and cache, and nothing.

still stuck on bootloop, not even rebooting or shut it down manually.

How can i do it, i have TWRP 2.8. (lastest for Lg G2 LS980)

Come from stock 4.2, rooted with the recovery mention.

I flash first the Broadband KK, then the rom, the second time did enter to android, make some changes and starting to download my apps, but when I reboot it took so long, i enter to recovery, and wipe cache and dalvik cache, start to upgrading apps and it just stays there.

Now trying to restore with my nandroid backup i cant i end up in bootloop also.

I dont know wht to do, have search anything and nothing.

In advance, thanks for the help.
[G2 Android Development] SignatureBoy:
I dont know most people use TWRP i was using it too but believe me i could not install **** with it, so i flashed Phil Touch recovery CWM you can find it by searching.

DO check your model for the recovery, download it and flash it via Flashify or TWRP itself.

Reboot

in CWM wipe cache not Wipe / Factory default

you will see something like flash a new rom touch it after wipe

install from zip as you ll start install the Aroma installer will begin if you see it start smiling because your new rom is being flashed.

DONE
[G2 Android Development] gbhartia:
Wipe System, Data, Dalvik & Cache

Flash KK BB

Flash Rom (Without Restarting)

Wait 5 mins for 1st boot

Enjoy !

:)
[G2 Android Development] Darkpikasso:
Thanks for the advice...

I always use TWRP and havent got a problem.

I have flash again, and finally enter to android the problem is if I have to reboot i dont want to be stuck again.

Have anybody have this kind of problem? and how to resolve it.

For now just get it charging and i will modify everthing i have the risk to reboot.

Any advice?

Thank you again.

How come I stuck in LG logo?? It keep looping looping and havn't boot to Android.

Installed from TWRP v2.7

Full Wipe (Dalvik, Cache, System & Data)

Flash KitKat baseband

Install the CloudyG2

Choose your variant in Aroma and Go reboot. Stuck in LG logo with green light flashing more then 15mins now.
[G2 Android Development] casual_kikoo:
Try installing latest TWRP version (see my signature for link), then re-try to install the ROM.
[G2 Android Development] Darkpikasso:
Now i dont have signal

Me again...

I have managed to stay on the rom, but sometimes the boot takes too long, and i have to shut it down and power again... dosent reboot by hes own, and still that way im trying to get it right but nothing....

And now facing the problem i dont have signal besides the the reboot problem, can anybody tells me how to fix the both or point me at the right direction.

Thanks everybody.

EDIT:

tried the simple steps to flash on the main thread and still nothing i dont know really what to do, besides the signal problem... i cant boot into the rom.... 6th time.
[G2 Android Development] RainGater:
As far as I can see, it's a pretty straight forward flashing process.

1. Flash JB Bootloader for your variant. Easiest would be to flash AutoRec and then upgrade the recovery (twrp-2.8.6.1-xxxx-bump-blastagator-signed).

2. Flash KK Baseband as mentioned in the OP.

3. Full wipe (System + Data + Cache + Dalvik) and do NOT select Internal Storage as it contains all your flashable files.

3. Flash ROM.

I am not sure whether you have installed JB bootloader and that might be the source of your problem.
[G2 Android Development] Darkpikasso:
Thanks for the reply, try to flashing the JB bootloader and upgrade twrp 2.8.6.1, im at the office and cannot download anything.

Thanks again for the help. I'll post anything of changes.
[G2 Android Development] :

And if I see rubbish like that again, there will be consequences for the posters.

Is AT&T doing better? I am looking for the lollipop D800 ROM so I can try it out.
[G2 Android Development] Darkpikasso:
sorry if I cause any trouble moderator....

And i have a new problem when i was on the rom cloudy with flashify flash TWRP zip file 2.8.6.1 said reboot and I reboot but when starting the boot logo of LG says SECURITY ERROR.

Reading and reading discover that i have to flash stock (im doing it right now), but i dont have any response from device or program on windows.

If anyone has a better way to do it tell Im desperate.

Thanks you for all the help.

EDIT:

OK, manage to restore it, root again android 4.2 and have signal and data...

Now Following the previews instructions flash JB bootloader, the flash the KK BB like the first post then wipe data, cache, dalvik and system...and flash cloudyg2 2.2

I got into the rom, without signal and data i dont know how to restore it, then install autorec make the process and reboot to recovery but when want to return to system dosent boot and gave me again SECURITY ERROR...

What Iam doing wrong..... or dont have to apply autorec.

I think I will help you. all you need to know the exact model of your g2 and you should be 100 percent sure about the model and I will fix it for you. but before all that i need to know few things.

Was someone able to find a fix for the 0GB internal memory issue? I'm on Cloudy G2.2
[G2 Android Development] sheppii:
Performance Boost

I'm now using F2FS filesystem with this ROM and it makes it even better and faster!

If you are interested how to do it, here is little tutorial:

>>>

What you need:

1. Latest TWRP (2.8.6.1) with F2FS support

2. Dorimanx Kernel (10.1 or later) with F2FS support

3. CloudyG2 ROM

Instructions:

Warning!!! Use this process only if you are an advanced user, unless I'm not responsible, if something went wrong with your phone.

1. Make a backup!!!

2. If you don't have latest TWRP, flash it from recovery or use Flashify

3. If you don't have latest Dorimanx Kernel, flash it from recovery

4. Run TWRP and go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe

5. Select all partitions and Swipe to Wipe (!!! this will wipe all of your data, so make sure you have made a backup before !!!)

6. Go back to Wipe menu, Advanced Wipe, select Data and tap on Repair or Change File System

7. Tap on Change File System and choose F2FS

8. When it's done, go back to point 6 and do the same with Cache partition (only Cache, not Dalvik)

9. Flash CloudyG2 ROM, boot and restore your backup, if you want

Now your Data and Cache partitions use F2FS filesystem, which offers you better I/O performance and faster read & write speeds.
[G2 Android Development] Kirpman:
Good. But how to check what filesystem I use at the moment?
[G2 Android Development] sheppii:
It shows in Advanced Wipe menu when you select partition type and get into Change File System option.

If you didn't make changes before, default is ext4.
[G2 Android Development] notanymore:
How's he going to do that I had that same problem. Just a green light continually flashing. It is because it's stuck in a TWRP recovery loop. You'll have to clear the loop by typing the proper command strings using the TWRP terminal. After that go into download mode and return to stock. Don't even think about saving any data that was on your phone at this point.
[G2 Android Development] Kirpman:
Thanks.

Should I wipe internal storage also? then I won't have cloudys rom anymore on the phone to install...
[G2 Android Development] sheppii:
It is not necessary, I am doing it, because I always install ROMs from USB flashdrive :)
[G2 Android Development] halfdeaf:
Download a buildprop editor and add this value:

[G2 Android Development] notanymore:
I did a perfect flash of this ROM and the result was getting stuck in fastboot. Had to return to stock and lost everything. Anyone know why this happened? I want to try again but not if I'm only going to get the same result.
[G2 Android Development] Kirpman:
okey. What a bout system. shouldn't change this filesystem?

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ----------

Something very weird happened now. I did try this filesystem change thing now. I did it and flashed gloudy again. Now when I restart comes screen which says "Enter PIN/password to decrypt. 30/30 attempts remaining"

What the hell is that!?!?

Please help!
[G2 Android Development] Darkpikasso:
My phone is a LG G2 Sprint LS980 32 Gb.

for the momenti have it on 4.2, rooted with TWRP 2.8.6.0.

Now, I have all other files to flash forthe rom Clouydy But Like i said went finished sometimes boots correctand sometimes dosent.

Flashing the TWRP 2.8.6.1. will enterin bootloop with the SECURITY ERROR on screen (Already restore it like 3 or 4 times yestarday).
[G2 Android Development] RainGater:
Did you convert /system to f2fs too? That might be the reason!
[G2 Android Development] scottdanpor:
Which TWRP are you flashing? The official one?
[G2 Android Development] Kirpman:
No I didn't

trying to restore from TWRP backup right now...
[G2 Android Development] scottdanpor:
It has been discussed at length that F2FS is mostly a placebo effect. I tried it once and went back to EXT4 because the trouble is not worth it. If you forget it and flash another rom with a kernel that doesn't support it you soft brick your phone. You have to jump through hoops just to have a *perceived* performance gain. Most kernel devs here have dropped it.
[G2 Android Development] Kirpman:
This worked. But now I have ext4 again. Too afraid to try again :D
[G2 Android Development] sonic997:
Still cannot go to download mode

OK. the problem still

I can boot it normally and enter TWRP recovery with no problem.

However, when power off, I keep holding volume UP and then plug in USB.

it can go to charging mode only, but no DOWNLOAD mode.

What's the problem? Please help. Thx !

The file name is: TWRP 2.8.6.1 D80130b.zip, that's the one.

or when I execute the autorec on cloudyg2, and enter recovery 2.7.0.0. TWRP, have to flash another one?

Thanks for the help.

EDIT:

For the moment i have installed TWRP 2.8.6.0. for LS980.

But when i flash CloudyG2, trying to reboot for anything, or takes to long or dosent enter at all to the rom.
[G2 Android Development] scottdanpor:
D801? But you have LS980!

You should get the one from Blastagator anyway: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development/twrp-twrp-2-8-0-0-kernel-f2fs-tools-t2898705

It has thermal control so your phone won't overheat.

Since Cloudy is Kitkat based, I think you just need to update to 4.4.2, then install it.
[G2 Android Development] Darkpikasso:
Got it, for the moment cant upgrade to kit kat, i dont have access, but i have all my files to install.

Going to try it right now, flashing the one you're telling me, should not encounter with any problems.

Thanks for the response.
[G2 Android Development] disiz:
Hello, this rom look really great, and I'm following this one since the last update. But I have some question before flashing this one.

First, do you think there will be update with this KK version ? I prefer KikKat for now with stable xposed and others tweaks. I've see last base for D855 is D85510L or this one is based on 10F. But this rom was released on 18 January 2015, and 10L base was out 25 November 2014, so do you think Cloudy will update this one, or he will only update to lollipop rom now ? :)

And do you have a good kernel app to change the CPU frequency, to not stick the 4 cores at 2.26 Ghz ?

And another question, I'm not yet rooted, but what is the best G2 recovery for now, because I've seen some problems according to some recovery versions...

Thanks a lot for your answers :)
[G2 Android Development] SignatureBoy:
Dorimanx Kernal is the best to tune the device search the forum for it you can almost do anything with the device with this kernal.

In my opinion i use CWM Phil Recovery.

Most people use TWRP but i prefer CWM over it.
[G2 Android Development] disiz:
Thanks, as I see, dorimanx kernel is a good one, but first to avoid issue I'll prefer stay with stock cloudy kernel. I was looking for an app to change cpu frequencies, and they're talking about STweaks, but not sure stock kernel will work with it. Any others ideas for an app ?

And ok for CWM Phil recovery, you've flash this rom with it and no problems ?
[G2 Android Development] igos2:
Hi, anyone using this rom and tryed stock lollipop, and come back to use this rom again ?

if so, please tell us in what you find this rom better ?

Btw. Why don't you use TWRP instead of CWM? It is much better

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Cloudy ROM is better optimalized, bloatware-free with significant camera improvements, less bugs and more features all around. It has better battery and compatibility with apps.

KitKat seems faster and nicer to me (especially Notification Area).
[G2 Android Development] casual_kikoo:
As said above, CloudyG2 2.2 is more better than Stock kitkat; it's fast, """bloatware-less""" (don't know if I can write this..), and in term of functionnality, I found much more in this one than in Lollipop (True "Do Not Disturb Mode", where are you in Lollipop?). Furthemore, I tried (last week), CloudyG2 3.0 modified for D802, and CloudyG2 2.2 is better than this one. Moreover, there is Dorimanx Kernel Kitkat :D : the fact that is add more features is so coooool.

Yep, for now, CloudyG2 2.2 is still better than Lollipop.
[G2 Android Development] Darkpikasso:
I managed to donwload the correct TWRP for LS980....

Now i have this, installed TWRP 2.8.6.1, CloudyG2 2.2... the hassel on this is: every time i reboot, or dosent enter to the rom and have to manually turn off (3 times o more) until i heard the boot sound, and then enter the rom, and dont have signal (tried to unlock sim replacing folders on carrier folder and try to change network with *#*#4696#*#* and nothing, looking at my info on about menu, i dont have IMEI, MSL, PRL, BASEBAND, etc.... everything is unknown.

Thanks for responding and point at the right direction.
[G2 Android Development] scottdanpor:
It sounds to me like your efs partition got messed somehow. It's rare but it has happened to some. I always run a efs backup with TWRP and transfer it to my PC in case something like that happens. I haven't had an issue so far though. If you haven't backed it up, you might have to search elsewhere on xda for cases where IMEI is lost.
[G2 Android Development] ItsDon:
Is there a way to stop the notifications in the notification bar for unread text, email etc. from flickering? I kind of remember seeing a setting somewhere but for the life of me I can't find it. Searched but came up empty.
[G2 Android Development] disiz:
OK thanks for this, I've heard about this app, it might be a good one. And is intellidemand included on Cloudy kernel, or I have to flash dorimanx kernel to have intelli governor ?

I can use TWRP if you think it's better, for now I'm not yet rooted but I think about it before this end of week. Can you tell me a good TWRP version for D802 and can flash this KK rom without issues ?

And thanks for your feedback about lollipop version, it confirm for me my choise to prefer this KK rom for now :)

I guess it's like all Android apps, go in settings - apps, flick and disable notifications.
[G2 Android Development] branpurn:
There's no LG UX available for much of the LG G2 user space aside from CloudyG2 2.2- that alone is worth staying on KitKat IMO

[G2 Android Development] sheppii:
I don't know that unfortunatelly, I'm using Dorimanx kernel and use default governors. But Dorimanx kernel has Intellidemand governor built-in.

TWRP has much better UI, it is faster to flash ROMs, made backup or restore and has more useful features, you can find latest version here:

If you can't wait for Lollipop go stock or another Rom simple.

hi, when i turn screen off during i listen music with stock App,and after that i turn on, then crashing the music stock app.Is that rom bug or kernel bug?

And is 1.6 kernel the final Kernel for KK? or is there a new one?

I've been using Cloudy G2 quite excessively and never experienced this issue. It may probably be caused by your modifications in case you made any.

[G2 Android Development] RainGater:
Since there is no update from Cloudy any more, why not try MIUI 6 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2759069&page=182.

It's an excellent ROM and MIUI 6 was released yesterday for G2. I flashed it y'day and it's buttery smooth and an awesome experience.

Instead of the usual look and feel, it's refreshingly fresh and I am very, very happy with the ROM.
[G2 Android Development] profeet:
oh no thx... i hatte CM... best rom cloudy! im very happy with cloudy and KK. i dont want lollipop, also! :)
[G2 Android Development] shaneel1491:
I really hope there is still development on this great ROM...
[G2 Android Development] RainGater:
Well, I hate to burst your bubble but it's wishful thinking. There is no update from him for the past three months and you still expect that he is looking into it?

Anways, I have been running MIUI 6 since yesterday and I have to tell you that it's much better than all the ROMs out there. Knock-on works

+ battery life is excellent - just some minor bugs like Pattern security is not working, but the PIN works.

All the MIUI apps are refreshingly fresh and it is so smooth and fluid and you have to try it and see it for yourself. Even if Cloudy comes with a new version, I am not sure whether I want to move away from MIUI ;)
[G2 Android Development] cnsngr:
There wasnt need for update 2.2 works great and lollipop just came out so if he gonna release a lollipop based update i dont think its easy work so we should give him enough time and he is now developing g3 too so i dont think he would abondon us without saying a goodbye we should be greatful for his work here

Unlocked AT&T D800 here. I've flashed this rom ages ago but I am getting "emergency calls only" message and my IMEI shows as 0. I have full bars and full 3G internet access but it is not letting me make calls. I am going insane because this issue appears to never have happened to anyone else before me. help?

Edit: I have tried changing my sim card around and calling the phone. It goes straight to voicemail and changing sims does not resolve the problem.
[G2 Android Development] Swetnes:
If you have a backup of your EFS partition, you should be able to just simply restore it in TWRP, it's going to be under Advance Restore. If your backup does not have a backup of that partition or you don't have a separate backup then the following guide will help. Good luck.

[G2 Android Development] knuckles1978:
Sounds like you've lost your IMEI. This is exactly why you should always back up your efs folder before flashing anything, but saying that doesn't help you right now.

I'm new to LG phones, but I'm very experienced with Samsung. With Samsung phones, If you lost your IMEI, you could get it back by flashing a stock (not stock based, a proper stock) ROM. Maybe someone who knows more than I do about the G2 can confirm for you whether this method works for this phone too.

Either that our you could just give it a try..
[G2 Android Development] ReCreate:
Thanks for the help guys. I was never aware of an EFS partition since I did not have that on any of my previous phones. I'll try backing up and restoring my phone to factory first and see if that helps. If not i'll do that insanely complicated process.

Good luck dude, I'm sure it'll work out for you, even if you have to do the long method. :)

OK I just rooted my phone using DP tools. (ADB root through download mode).

Now I'm gonna install Kitkat Autorec.

So what do I need to know before installing this ROM?

I'm on stock kitkat 4.4.2 (D80220H EU firmware).

Do I need to flash the kitkat baseband or I don't since I'm on Kitkat already?

And I've read comments something about partition, do I need to reformat/repartition my storage or something?

Or I'm all set with stock one?
