Somboon's SRKG rom includes the old recovery. That was how mine got downgraded.
[G2 Android Development] lollipo:
Thanks. Yes i use somboon.

But I had updated twrp a few days ago and I haven't flashed somboons rom in the meanwhile.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
It is not possible for TWRP to "downgrade itself". Either you didn't install correctly or you flashed something else that overwrote the recovery. Just flash the newest release again.
[G2 Android Development] lollipo:
Well probably something overwrote it. I flashed the newest one and for now everything works perfectly.

Thank you
[G2 Android Development] bender_007:
Maybe bootloader changer or something like that. Some roms which are not from xda are doing it also. Saw it.

Hi guys at the moment i'm not able to boot in recovery using the keys combination(power volume down and volume + and -) using latest bumped twrp with hybrid bootstack. Somebody else have this issue?
[G2 Android Development] 60nine:
1. pwr down completely

2. press pwr+volume down until lg logo shows, then release buttons and quickly press and hold

3. pwr+volume up

My recovery reboots whenever I try to perform a backup on 2.8.7.3. Does anyone else have this problem?
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
Power and Volume Down is the key combo. Are you seeing the factory reset screen? Are you getting to the TWRP curtain and hanging? Please elaborate.
[G2 Android Development] android extreme:
Thanks for the answer, in the end i discovered that the problem was related to a wrong bootstack flashed that change the key combo to access the recovery anyway thanks for asking

:D
[G2 Android Development] GalaxyDrei:
I've got the same problem.

I'm using bump boostack on D802. I came from your previous (2.8.7.1) version, where Vol down+Power worked. Now I just can get to the factory reset screen.

Edit: I just had to confirm to wipe my data and then I got to the recovery (I think it it didn't wipe my data...). At least it worked :D
[G2 Android Development] Sunandroid:
It's always like this. You always have to confirm that you wanna wipe your data, but actually it just boots into the recovery. At least if you have installed one.
[G2 Android Development] lef7er1s:
Hello guys, i am on CloudyG2 3.3 with blastgator's TWRP 2.8.7.1 recovery now and i want to restore an old backup (stock 4.4.2 rom). My question (maybe silly) is if i can do that directly from the recovery i am now .

That backup was made with TWRP 2.7.0.0 and i had JB Bootloader then because i had used AutorecV1 .

Thanks and sorry if this asked again before.
[G2 Android Development] runekock:
You should be able to restore your old backup. However, you need to make sure that you get the bootloader, bootstack and modem that the old rom needs. Your backup probably doesn't include those things, so you'll need to download them separately and flash them at the same time.
[G2 Android Development] stroge:
hello guys! I'd like to ask for some help regarding /data and /cache changing to f2fs.

when in twrp I go to wipe, select the partition and change the file system, twrp does that. when I check again, the partitions are f2fs, but when I reboot twrp and then the system, and then go to recovery again, the partitions are listed as ext4.

what am I doing wrong? thanks!
[G2 Android Development] anmino:
Can I flash this on my stock LP rooted? I dont have yet a recovery..
[G2 Android Development] 60nine:
if you don't have a custom recovery - how would you flash this?

[G2 Android Development] 60nine:
let me guess - lg logo keeps showing again and again...

btw provide some more info

- which twrp version

- which bootloader version

- your variant (d801, d802,...)

- explain what you're trying and what you did so far without sucess
[G2 Android Development] adize:
Yesss! LG Logo keeps showing instead of TWRP screen

G2 F320L

running Cloudy G2 3.3 ROM

TWRP 2.8.7.1

(how do i know bootlader version?)

The last thing I did, I flash an LP bootstack, then the problem persists.

I can't successfully enter twrp.
[G2 Android Development] 60nine:
you need to learn how to turn the device off completely...

what you're doing is letting the power button off to early...

press it for more than 10 seconds and don't let it go even if lg logo shows again for a short time...

only then the device will power off completely...

and only then you can try the key combinations to enter twrp...

if one key combination fails - repeat the procedure starting with powered off device...

i've wrote this same thing more than 10 times in various lg g2 threads and somehow people still don't know how to completely power off the device...

let us know if you suceed...

Every times it book as LG screen ant then TWRP appears. And I've wiped everything, but same issue, even after pushing a rom with adb command, still reboot to TWRP with fix permissions... Can someone can please tell me what to do, I can't do anything with the phone for now :(

Thanks a lot.

Stock to Stock? from your SiG your using Cloudy G2.v2.2 KiT-KaT ROM to Custom Stock Lollipop ROM?

What is your Device Variant?

What is your previous TWRP?

What ROM? Custom Stock by Cloudyfa, somboons, Inazuma ROM?

in order to Boot Lollipop ROM, you need to use proper BootStack (Loki or Bump) check my Sig or use Lollipop AutoRec by [MENTION=3279781]bender_007[/MENTION]

and always read the O.P. of your preferred ROM, the instructions are there already.

Hello, I had Cloudy 2.2 but I wanted to flash Cloudy 3.3 but phone stucks at LG screen and black screen next... So I have to use LG flash tool to go back with 220D Kitkat. And next I've flashed Stock Lollipop but no way to root this... :crying:

So I've decided to go back to stock 4.4.2., root it and update with stock lollipop to see if I still have the root. But with 4.4.2. I've rooted and installed TWRP 2.7.0.0. with Autorec, and I've flashed last TWRP 2.8.7.3 next.

And once it was done, I wanted to update phone from system menu, but once update was donwloaded, it rebooted to TWRP recovery, and do not flash the new update...

So now, I can only access TWRP 2.8.7.3. and can't reboot phone, nor access download menu :(

I have D802 16G Europe, I have 220D to 220G but it don't update then.

Do you have an idea how can I get any ROM booted again now ? Maybe you know what kind of script I have to delete in phone to not force him to reboot to recovery, because that's the problem ?

Thanks for your help.

Edit : I've found the solution here, phone revive, I'm OK now.

But if you can tell me how can I flash Cloudy G3 without being able to root lollipop, I appreciated :) Thanks.

I'm doing something wrong here. I'm sure I've missed something simple but can't figure it out.

I've tried twice now to install blastagator's TWRP. Both times I get the "Secure Booting..." error. I've been on Lollipop both times, first time Resurrection Remix, second time stock Lolly. I've used Flashify in the past without too much difficulty, but it ain't working here.

What method is everyone using to flash blastagator's TWRP?

And if anyone has a better solution to the Secure Booting error than returning to stock, I'm all ears. I'm trying to get set up to flash RR Marshmallow....
[G2 Android Development] Sunandroid:
Autorec
[G2 Android Development] da_reeseboy:
Which g2 are you using? Typically the secure boot error means that you flashed a bump'd rom/recovery to a device with a loki'd bootloader or vice versa.

Hi All,

I'm am absolutely stumped and have tried what feels like everything I can to resolve my issue to no avail. So, I'm hoping to find success from the wisdom of the seasoned XDA community.

I have an SGH-T999 with baseband UVDMD5. In early September, my camera stopped working. When I open the camera app, I'm greeted with the infamous "Can't connect to camera" message. The front camera works fine (via Skype), but the rear camera does not. I've tried all of the following but the camera still won't work:

1) Unrooted and re-flashed the stock root66;

2) Finding the correct "SLIM_ISP.bin" file, placing them in the /data folder, and set the permissions to 777;

3) Re-flashed the stock UVDMD5 bootloader, firmware, and modem;

4) Took the phone to a shop to have a new camera installed and they couldn't get the new hardware to work either (so, it's definitely software related);

5) Cleared the app cache and fixing permissions in recovery;

6) Restored a Nandroid from a previous state of the device when the camera was fully operational;​

I don't know what else to do. PLEASE help me folks. I really want my camera back. Thank you in advance for your time and insight.

I've attached a Catlog I recorded while attempting to open the camera, if that helps at all.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrrocketdog:
just a thought , but if you have a nandroid backup could you uninstall current camera and then grab camera from nandroid and install it ?

or if have titanium backup hit the install button on camera apk (even though its already there). these methods have worked for me with browser issues.

just an idea.

good luck.

err on the side of kindness
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Have you considered replacing the camera hw? It's very easy to do and the part usually costs less than $10.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] halebopper:
Hi Doc, I tried that. Sorry. Should have listed it. I took it to a shop to have a new camera installed and they couldn't get the new hardware to work either. So, it's definitely software related.

Thanks for the suggestion though. Please let me know if you have any other ideas.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] halebopper:
mrrocketdog,

Would that work if the camera doesn't work even when the Nandroid is restored (despite that fact that the camera was functional when the Nandroid was created)? Thank you.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
At this point I think that would be worth a shot. If it doesn't work though I'd have to say it sounds like it could be hardware related, even though you replaced the module. Might be a problem on the motherboard or something like that.

The only other thing I can think to try though is to flash a 4.1.1 rom. Then using the hidden code to write the camera firmware to the device. If the firmware got corrupted somehow, this could fix it. The problem though, is if you've updated to 4.3 firmware, it probably won't work. They patched against our ability to write the cameras firmware ourselves. If this was done in the controlling app, it may just work. However, if it was patched in the base firmware, there won't be any way I know of to do this.

I'll post the code in a min. Gotta hunt it down again...

---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------

Ok here are the codes:

*#34971539#

*#7412365#

Enter in the stock dialer.

I'm pretty sure the first one is the one you need, but both are camera codes which is why I gave both.

If it works, it will open a menu called Camera Firmware Std

You can check the firmware versions first if you like. If the phone fw is older than the cam fw, and you do this, it is possible you could loose some features. But if so, I imagine flashing the device firmware again will update back to where it should be.

To write the camera firmware, just choose Phone to Cam FW Write.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrrocketdog:
i think that would be the point. the camera was functioal when the nand was created.

dont know exact function , but what about going into recovery and fixing permissions.

and going into settings>apps>camera and clearing cache ? wouldnt take but a minute and it already doesnt work so....

err on the side of kindness
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] halebopper:
Thank you for your response and the suggestions.

That point makes complete sense. However, what I'm saying is that I've restored s Nandroid from a state when the camera was functional. However, the camera still doesn't work despite restoring a Nandroid from a previously operational state. So, please correct me if I'm wrong, but, considering that, what good would extracting the apk from the Nandroid do if restoring the entire Nandroid doesn't make the camera work?

Regarding your second suggestion, I have tried clearing the app cache and fixing permissions, but it didn't work. I'll add this to my list of attempted fixes in my original post.

Thank you very much mrrocketdog. I sincerely appreciate your continued interest and support. I hope we can figure this out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrrocketdog:
well dang it ! hopefully someone else will chime in with some ideas. sorry i didnt have anything new. will keep thinking. :confused:

err on the side of kindness
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] halebopper:
Hi DocHoliday77,

Thank you very much for the reply and the suggestion. Your advice seems sound.

I'm not sure what you mean by "controlling app." I'm afraid my knowledge is too limited to tell you if I've flashed the 4.3 firmware.

Not sure if this helps, but I have intentionally not upgraded beyond the stock baseband UVDMD5 version. I understand the baseband versions following UVDMD5 are bad due to the addition of KNOX and the inability to flash back to previous baseband versions.

Currently, I have flashed Carbon rom, which states the Android version is 4.4.4. However, I don't know if the Android version number is reflective of the firmware.

Regarding flashing a 4.1.1 rom, is there a rom you suggest that would be better for this than others? Should I just grab an older version of Carbon or would it be best to use Odin to flash back to a stock root66 version of 4.1.1 ?

Btw, not sure if you saw, but I uploaded a Catlog I recorded while trying to launch the camera app. I don't know if that will reveal anything or not. I can't make two cents of Catlogs other than to identify that errors are occurring. I really hope this isn't a faulty motherboard.

Thank you again for your continued interest and support. I really appreciate your advice. It means a lot. I hope we are able to resolve this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If you never updated beyond 4.1.2, you can fully downgrade to 4.1.1 and try that method I posted. The app is just the one that controls the cameras dialer code. You don't really need to worry about it. Don't remember which it is right now anyway...

If you like though, first just flash stock 4.1.2. The code might work there. I just can't remember if it was patched there or in 4.3. You'll know you need 4.1 1 if you open it and the firmware write choice is greyed out.

I suggest just flashing the root66 firmware rather than a rom. This way everything you need is included. If it does solve the problem you can flash back to whatever you like.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] halebopper:
Ok Doc. I flashed root66 T999 UVDLJC (Official JB Firmware - Latest JB 4.1.1 Firmware). After rebooting the phone, I entered the first code you provided - *#34971539# - into the phone dialer. This pulls up an all black screen with a gray colored placeholder/header at the top that reads, "CameraFirmware Standard." Again, other than the gray header and title, the rest of the screen is all black with no text or anything, except for the notification bar at the very top. Then, after sitting on that screen for a few seconds, it closes and the message, "Unfortunately, Factory Test has stopped," displays in a pop-up message.

I can make my assumptions about what that means, but I'd prefer your opinion. What do you think?

Thank you again for your time, insight, and assistance. I respectfully look forward to your response.

p.s. Just to clarify my experience for potential future readers, the second code you provided - *#7412365# - didn't work. It displayed, "Unable to process request" in a pop-up message.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
That tells me that the system is most likely having problems communicating with the camera.

I'd open it up and make sure it's properly connected. It's very easy to do. You can find disassembly videos on YouTube if you want to see what to look for first.

If the shop couldn't get a new one to work, I'm honestly not sure what else you can try. It does sound like a hardware issue though. My best guess is its got something to do with the motherboard.
