Bootloop!

Good Morning,

Unfortunately, I am in need of some help. I flashed this recovery in TWRP (I recently had 2.8.0.0), and now I am stuck in a bootloop and EDIT: I can access recovery. I currently have the latest weekly of slimkat 4.4 installed.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated as I am not able to currently use my phone.

Thanks!

Kevin

Have you tried dirty flashing a ROM (i.e. slimkat) on top of it?
[AT&T LG G3] Ozark_8125:
Great work! Not getting the oversized file error anymore on my side. Thank you!

Slim chance that wiping cache / dalvik will help... probably not. If you have a backup, then format data (the one you have to type 'yes' to), then wipe the other bits & reinstall. If you don't have a backup then you can reflash your old twrp and then see if you can get rebooted. Most of the time, when you get boothung/looped, you have to format data. Wiping won't work most of the time.
[AT&T LG G3] kpraytor:
For the record, I dirty flashed boot and system, and that fixed the problem.
[AT&T LG G3] Smac7:
so i tried flashing a nightly of CM12 after 2.8.3.0 and had some problems. I can't be sure if it was a recovery problem but it worked fine 100x before and my first time using this version i have issues. I tried installing 4 zips using autoflasher, which just creates a script for twrp to follow. Everything seemed to be going fine but it froze on the last step (gapps) during the md5 check so i had to do a battery pull. When i reboot into recovery i find that now it can't mount /system and my phone apparently doesn't see /system outside of recovery either. The phone can't boot cause there is "no OS installed". Any ideas on how to fix, preferably a method that doesn't require a windows computer. I have a mac and it'll be a pain to set up bootcamp.

EDIT: Simply wiping system seems to have worked. Still weird that it happened with 2.8.3.0 on the first time ever using it and i never had the issue once on 2.8.0.0.

Hey I have just one question I understand how to root and install recovery. What I would like to know is being that the boot loader is not unlocked that means that every Rom I install has to be bumped , so does that mean I can not install the official cm 11 or did I miss something ?
[AT&T LG G3] AndroidUser00110001:
CM ROMs are bumped along with any other custom ROM.
[AT&T LG G3] Kernodle:
Just installed with Flashify and it worked great.

I read somewhere that Sony and LG have proprietary camera stuff cooked into the bootloader/recovery of their devices. Does flashing this remove those enhancements?

[AT&T LG G3] Tdiliplane:
dude im having the same problem, backed my **** up and flashed a rom and now when i go back to restore theres nothing there... did a backup and went back and looked and that backup was there but nothing else. Is there any way that it was saved elsewhere? im freaking out right now 30gb of **** down the drain... please tell me i can recover that file somehow.
[AT&T LG G3] shayneflashindaily:
Dude if your trying to flash that then unroot with su to get the lollipop ota it won't work... Att will see you have been rooted and once it's done downloading it will just reboot instead of install... If you aren't trying to do that then I apologize.

Thanks for the advice..:)

Am on T-Mobile and so won't get the update. So is there any way around for this? Can i flash the update manually using the stock recovery? Should I go back to stock using the KDZ or TOT file and then flash it (can get the update that someone posted) manually using the stock recovery? If it is possible, could you please direct me on how to do the manual update using the stock recovery and downloaded file?
[AT&T LG G3] hollisnh:
Updated successful . no issues to 2.8.5.0 on d850

Flashify worked great

Thanks for the update
[AT&T LG G3] 4NDROID4LIFE:
I don't think anyone has uploaded the ota anywhere. I think you're going to need an att sim card

Sent from my D850 T-Mobile SIM
[AT&T LG G3] ryanzurlo88:
This is not true. I was on stock D850 with NO sim card and was able to take update ota through WiFi. So you CAN get lollipop without at&t service
[AT&T LG G3] gordec:
I don't have ADB on my computer. I should be able to use shell emulater on the G3 to install TWRP right?

Edit: I just used Shell emulator and it worked perfectly. Easiest recovery installation ever.

Using flashify is even easier
[AT&T LG G3] elry567:
Why does it download as a .bin file?
[AT&T LG G3] loganfarrell:
Are you talking about from the dropbox? If so, it's for sure not a .bin file (I just verified) and you did something wrong.

I would advise this as well. Try opening the link with the dropbox app maybe?
[AT&T LG G3] elry567:
Thanx a lot was the browser?
[AT&T LG G3] loganfarrell:
You would need the stock recovery installed, but that wouldn't be how to do it. I have the files uploaded, but as a disclaimer, I have no clue if the OTA update is usable across devices or if the encryption prevents what I am about to suggest. If you are interested, I will post a link to the OTA files for you to download, and you can use a root browser to push them to the /cache/fota/ folder, you could theoretically go into Settings, About device, Software Update, and it should start installing the update. However, if you plan to proceed, I accept absolutely no responsibility for whatever may happen to your device. By installing, you are taking the risk on your own will.
[AT&T LG G3] trueman.:
I have rooted my D-850 with Stumproot.

Can I install this recovery? (if yes) then using adb I am getting device offline. What should I do to get this working?

Thanks in advance
[AT&T LG G3] scubamikejax904:
do you have debugging turned on? in developer options?

you will also need the screen on when running ADB (atleast the first time so that you can approve the adb connection)

i would use this thread (it's what what i used at first) than just update the recovery with the zip from the OP

[AT&T LG G3] KitWasHere:
I am stuck in TWRP at the moment. Yesterday, rooted my phone using this method, and then installed TWRP using the instructions in the OP here. Everything seemed to work fine but today I wake up and it's somehow in TWRP and always boots back to it (rebooting to bootloader does actually go to bootloader though). Tried factory reset/wiping data, downgraded TWRP from 2.8.5.1 to 2.8.5.0, and tried to flash a ROM but all give me the same results, still stuck in TWRP.

Any ideas?

All of the different forums, variants, and threads have made this very confusing for a former nexus 5 user.

What's the best way to root, twrp, and flash roms if on lollipop? I've tried going back to kk and then flashing cm12, but I'm back in lollipop now because I heard we can root and flash twrp and roms without going back to kk
[AT&T LG G3] netomel:
There are a few threads on this issue. The ATT LG G3 Lounge on the general section talks about root and TWRP. There are already a few rooted roms that can be flash from kk. The newest one from [MENTION=6299094]cmulk[/MENTION] which seem very stable is on the android development section. If you are already on lollipop check autoprime thread for root, twrp and flash other roms. There is also an easy one click root. Check under root methods by neverendmind
[AT&T LG G3] Quote100:
So I'm really confused and I don't want to risk it and brick my g3 again so would the latest version work with a d850 on stock and rooted? I saw someone on g+ and they directed me to rashr from the play store but I don't know what image to download and I have twrp manager but it doesn't seem handy right now because of these builds being unofficial so thanks in advance!
[AT&T LG G3] netomel:
If you're confused don't root or flash anything until you read enough of others experiences.

All that happens on mine after I do the adb reboot recovery is a black screen with a alternating blue and red led. Nothing happens other than that (waited for over 5 minutes just in case). Then I press the power and vol down buttons and I reboot into the os.

Hello,

I've been using Galaxy s3 for and recently moved to HTC M8.

I rooted device and unlocked the bootloader to be able to make few things however I've never predicted that unlocking bootloader is (almost) one way ride.

HTC made a life really difficult and If I knew that it will be a hassle to unroot/lock the bootloader (+removing modified flag) then I would think twice before rooting.

I think it would be good to make this post sticky so people should clearly be made aware of what will happen when they root.

[One (M8) General] thebobmannh:
You're coming from a Samsung device, where they don't even allow you to take an OTA EVER AGAIN after rooting, and you're complaining about HTC??
[One (M8) General] exocetdj:
its down to the user themselves, yes it has an element of risk and we see so many people messing up their phones as they didn't read the necessary info prior to unlocking/rooting. Also yes, rooting a sammy is a piece of piss compared to HTC in certain respects, but the resources are here and providing people embrace the resources on offer they shouldn't have any issues

whilst the above statement agrees with you somewhat, this is a pretty useless thread and goes completely against what xda is here for :laugh: ;)

to sum up,

1, people who are not prepared to do the above, should not think about tampering with thier device

2, thread reported as it serves as much use as a chocolate tea pot, you are defo trolling and inflatable dart boards have served much more use than this. :laugh::laugh:

and you post this at XDA.....the mother of root and customising phones ?

[One (M8) General] m112:
I clearly understand risk of rooting (bricking device etc) but it would be really easy to tell people that if Sunshine will not work rooting will be just one way ticket!

providing the user keeps a backup available of thier original rom, returning to stock will never be an issue. the firmware cant be changed as the CID cant be changed

yes warranty is buggered but that's defo the case with samsung devices also. I have a galaxy tab s 10.5 and there's nothing on that particular forum that i could root with without tripping the knox counter

basically if anyone is going to go into rooting without reading what people have been kind enough to compile and do things properly then sorry "we told them so!!" several hundred times actually ;)

THERE ARE THESE WARNINGS IN PRETTY MUCH EVERY ROM/ROOTING THREAD IN CAPITALS JUST LIKE THESE

passing what message ? that you have to read instead of getting warned....hold on mate its not kindergarten here ?! hahaha

[One (M8) General] redpoint73:
There is very little actual information in this post, and I disagree that it should be made sticky.

You were provided ample warning from HTC when unlocking the bootloader. Regardless, any such mods should never be taken for granted and should

always

be preceded with thorough research.

If you bothered to research current Samsung devices, you will see that root is

truly

a one way road. All current and forthcoming Samsung devices have a Knox counter. The Knox counter is an actual physical fuse that is blown when you root, and impossible to change by software.
