[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
I'm on a VS980 running crDroid LP ROM (therefore with 12B).

I had TWRP 2.8.1.0 I believe and tried upgrading to 2.8.4.0 by downloading/flashing thru Flashify. It looked like it successfully installed, but then when I rebooted into recovery, I got the LG logo screen with small text in the upper left corner (looked like fastboot text see below) for a split second before getting stuck on a black screen. Can only hard reset with power button back into ROM. I tried 2.8.3.0 thru Flashify to see if it was just a problem with the newest version. Same issue. Finally, I tried using the LG G2 Toolkit v1.5 program via USB to install 2.7.0.0 and I still get the same issue happening.

I have no idea what messed up, but it seems I've lost recovery. Ideas to get it back? Although my phone works, I can't change/backup/restore my ROM right now...Help would be appreciated!

UPDATE: Tried using adb to flash different recovery versions and also using FreeGee, didn't work. Still can't access recovery or download mode (only see fastboot text, but not the normal download mode text).

UPDATE #2: After capture a freeze frame of my screen during boot to recovery, I noticed it says I have a secure boot certification error.

UPDATE #3: Not sure that download mode is working since all I get this...

[IMG="Download Mode gets me this"]https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/v/t1.0-9/10409264_10102423247778911_7143203445689964491_n.jpg?oh=7d69e3e4d3879ecb17317d9588e9f629&oe=55324FC5&__gda__=1432940176_1c0936629373191df0d940f54460332c[/IMG]

UPDATE #4: AutoRec solved part of my issue, but now I'm stuck on TWRP 2.7.0.0 and can't upgrade recovery without getting myself right back to where I was stuck.

UPDATE #5: I was able to install TWRP via XDABBEB's 26a bootstack and then installed his vs982.5 ROM. I don't want to see if upgrading TWRP any further brings the problem back, so I'll consider this issue "closed" for now. Thanks for all your help!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabowtech:
How about using adb from a normally booted state with usb debugging enabled to dd write the previous version (2.8.3.0) of twrp? Either place the 2.8.3.0 recovery.img on the sdcard using mtp or adb push. Then...

adb shell

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15

exit

adb reboot recovery

Seems like a workable plan.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Thanks for the response! I've got developer options enabled, usb debugging on, recovery.img extracted from 2.8.4.0 on sdcard, used cmd prompt running as admin get to adb folder....typed in your commands and got the daemon successfully started prompt, and then "dd: /dev/block/mmcblk0p15: permission denied" after I wrote exactly what you said to.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabowtech:
You many need to evoke su following adb shell...

adb shell

su

If you get a # prompt, then continue as before. And as I said, I'd use 2.8.3.0 instead. I've seen a few accounts of people having issues with 2.8.4.0. Not sure if it was perhaps compiled using a newer kernel or just flukes.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Didn't fix it. I was successful in following your instructions, but reboot gave me the same fastboot-looking text real quick in the corner before getting a blank screen. Upon trying to boot into recovery using the volume down + power button, I can get the factory reset page where you push power button twice, but then it goes to a blank screen again.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Will AutoRec do anything or mess anything up if I try it? I'm worried when it says downgrade bootloader. Bootloader and 12B baseband is the same thing right?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iGordy101:
I hade the exakt samme prob... Just flash back your old recovery (the samme version using odin)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
So flash exactly 2.8.1.0 (which is the one I think I had before I got the issue)? odin meaning....?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iGordy101:
Yes get Twrp for your model and flash it using ODIN

This is a hos to on YouTube http://youtu.be/Asx-v2W7S7w

Good luck!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Isn't ODIN for Samsung phones only? LG phones use something else that's similar like kdz or tot files, but would put me back at stock and erase everything I think....maybe I'm wrong. Maybe someone else can chime in.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iGordy101:
Ahaa i have a note 4 so that is what i did.. And only recovery was installed everything else was still ready.. Soo you just need to flash your old Recovery version and im sure it vill boot. Just find a way, m8.. Im new and learning about android :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Yea, haha. I've tried installing different versions of recovery though. So I'm thinking it's not the recovery itself, but something with the partitions or the way the phone knows how to boot into recovery that's messed up.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iGordy101:
I'll now explain on how exactly everything went for me. (I'm Swedish so therefore ask your pardon for my bad english)

1. I have TWRP v2.8.1 all good, but then when I installed TWRP manager from Google Play, I was then told that there was a TWRP update and so I updated.

2. rebooted the phone immediately went into Download Mode, no matter what i did I ended up into Download Mode.

3. I the downloaded odin installed TWRP different but the same problem occurred, the cell phone could start after flash via Odin but then when you disconnect the USB and restart, it went directly to the download mode again. so i had an idea to test the version I had before, and only that same twrp version could fix my problem! Sorry again for my bad english!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
A fellow Swede!...well, I'm an American, but mostly Swedish heritage. I appreciate the effort, but I don't think that's going to work on an LG phone. I'll try going back to my old version, but so far no matter what version I try, I can't get into recovery. Even download mode seems broken since I only get fastboot commands that show up and then it sits there doing nothing.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Update to my situation posted in post #1. It's a secure boot certification error. How do I fix this?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rei Zazie:
have you try go back to your stock through download mode?

at least if you still can enter download mode, maybe you can try to back to your stock first,

just afraid if your system's script was changed due to some errors and that's why it prevent further change into your bootloader. similar case happened to me, but for me it was my booting way script that makes my nav bar disappear, no matter how many kind of ROMs I used, the problem still there until my phone goes back to stock, lost everything inside (internal data, recovery) and gladly lost the problem too...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabowtech:
What do you see when you try to boot into download mode? Fastboot screen? Other?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:

Sorry for being blurry, but I was trying to use my laptop's camera since I can't screen capture. Download mode shows the download mode blue dots or whatever and then it switches to this fastboot message and nothing happens beyond this.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
I have not tried reverting to stock because I didn't want to erase my sdcard yet if I didn't have to. I'd rather fix my recovery/bootloader and just change my ROM like normal.

Does anyone know if AutoRec will fix my issue? Or can it make things worse because it's made for KitKat and I'm on Lollipop (using a 12B baseband)?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rei Zazie:
well,, since you are still can access your ROM, you can safe your internal data first.

not being pessimist but i'm just not sure how to fix your recovery in this state, and beside you are using Lollypop, and that is also you should not try autorec because last log from autorec was only tested to kitkat user at most. not sure anyone have tried on Lollypop.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Even if I couldn't save recovery, I'm not sure how I would restore my phone to full working order given I don't have download mode either. I've found this [FIX] NO Recovery mode, No download mode, after OTA on rooted LG G2, but hopefully there's a way to do it with Windows instead. I'm waiting to hear about AutoRec from that thread.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabowtech:
If you have the SDK on you windows machine you can fix it. Just need to be able to issue fastboot commands. If you have that great, if not let us know and we'll get your phone restored.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
It looks like AutoRec solved my recovery/download mode issue! Cloudyfa is awesome!

But if I try upgrading TWRP now to a new version from 2.7.0.0, I get my original issue again. Do you smart people know why upgrading recovery causes an issue now? Can it be the 5.0 LP ROM, 12b baseband, etc? Is it an issue with the newer TWRP's?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blastagator:
Does Dees_Troy's TWRP cause same problem?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
Is that normal original TWRP? If so, yes, I've tried that too.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNordy:
I decided to go with XDABBEB's VS982.5 ROM. Following his instructions and installing TWRP thru his bootstack zip and then installing his ROM worked like a charm. Still no idea what caused the recovery update issue, but I've moved on from it. I'll consider this issue closed for now.

[P3600 General] Antzzz:
Hi all, just thought I'd share something I discovered the other day. Had previously managed to get my P3600 to connect to a 3COM WLAN router, could browse with no issues. Then tried to connect to a Buffalo G54 Airstation router - found I could connect but could not browse at all, couldn't ping anything on the network as well. :confused: Connection was using WPA-PSK in both cases.

After much headscratching and mucking around with DNS, DHCP and other network related settings I stumbled across a post where someone changed the WLAN power mode on their device to resolve a similar problem. Didn't think this would work as the P3600 would connect just fine, problem looked like it was to do with network routing.

But gave it a shot, did the following:

- Start->Settings

- Select the 'Connections' tab and then select 'Wireless LAN'

- Select the 'Power Mode' tab and move the slider at the top from the centre setting to the left-hand one ('Best Performance')

And suddenly it worked, could browse/ping etc with no problems! No idea why, but if you are having a similar problem give this a go.

Only downside is that your battery life while using the WLAN will be reduced.

already have this problem too !!! With my netgear AP WG602V3 with WPA-PSK, il i use WPA2-PSK : no problem.

HTC desire c sense revolution rom bug

hi, anytime i turn on mobile network for my revolution rom, it goes into a bootloop. any help pls?
[HTC Desire C] nemanjsb:
Me too...
[HTC Desire C] JimSoulio:
Wireless dont work

Hello, I downloaded the Revolution sense re-release v3.1 rom for my HTC Desire C and install it with the TWRP. The rom is really great. Make the phone work better and lots of handy shortcut, but I have a major problem. The WiFi says Error and does not work!! It never goes on. I am really newbie to these things and this is my first android phone. I'm sorry if this problem is already answered but I haven't found a solution in this forum and I don't know what to do. For now I switched back to the stock as I was before. Is there any case to solve the problem? I really want to use this revolution rom. And something else, whats the main difference between the sense and senseless? Just graphics? And maybe better performance with senseless? I m asking if it makes any difference to my WiFi problem and therefore I should install the other rom?
[HTC Desire C] nurlan.:
did you flash boot.img inside zip?
[HTC Desire C] nemanjsb:
Try CM10 or CM11 it's better than sense i think.
[HTC Desire C] JimSoulio:
No, I am going to try flash the boot.img and see what will happen. By the way how do I do it? Like the same way I unlocked the boot loader I suppose. Don't forget I'm a newbie and this is my first smartphone. It was given to my for free some weeks ago. It had serious speed problem. Even when returning in the home status the phone was showing the message "Loading" for 2 secs and then it returned in home status. What I want is to gain some speed. A minor improvement applied with factory reset but with this rom things are even better. Except from this huge problem. I want Nameless or Revolution Roms due to the overclock. I couldn't download Nameless because the download links I found where doing nothing!! So continued with this rom but if I have no luck I will try CM rom. Thanks for the interest anyway.

---------- Post added at 03:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 AM ----------

OK problem solved with flashing the boot.img found in the zip. For those who experience the same problem the command is this: "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

But I firstly flashed the boot.img and then reinstalled the Revolution rom. Thank you guys for the help. Thank you Revolution team! Very, Very Good job! Next thing to do is to learn the tweaks and which one should I use.
[HTC Desire C] JimSoulio:
COME ON NOW!!! I have the exact same problem with the first person! When I activate mobile internet the phone reboots. And when if finishes reboot it reboots again, probably because mobile internet is on and it trys to activate it so the loop goes on! I have to say that I use data roming! I am not aboard, its just the way my mobile network provider works. Please suggest a solution!
[HTC Desire C] calinorg:
No solution until someone makes a proper kernel with updated system. After last official system update, everyone went for cm10 or abandoned this device and everything was stuck here.

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Are you asking how to make a web page (opened in the phone's browser) open an app to a specific page? Have the app register a URI scheme - something unique, like prrcapps_appname: - and have the handler for that URI scheme either open the desired page directly, or navigate within the app to the desired page. Then have your web app redirect the user to that custom scheme (instead of to a http: or https: URI, send them to your custom URI) and it should open.

[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Ndaoud360:
There was a dot view xposed module which had new features and a game on it (snake). BUT since we now are getting Lollipop, no more xposed for now. So I decided to make simple dot view game (flappy bird) that doesn't require xposed. I have a beta apk for anyone who wants to test it. The trick is to turn off dot view in the dot view app then launch this game and then close the phone to play. I wander if anyone else thought of doing something like this because I haven't seen any besides the xposed module I mentioned. Anyway if you want to try it out, the apk is attached. If this goes well I might make some other game (Tetris, or something Idk).

Now on play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ndapplications.dot_bird

Just played with it for 10 mins and like all those types of games it's very addictive!

I see now it doesn't utilise the dot view app just the case itself... Think you could be on to a winner here as anyone with the case wants to show off its capabilities.

[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Surge1223:
So there are a lot of us on nexus, this is our best opportunity to work together and fix Kexec for arm. I suppose hardboot has already been shown to work on arm but as far as normal Kexec I have not seen this work yet..(unless someone has an example?)

I have a Kexec tree started for both hard and softboot kexec, but I want to get ram console working first. I added back the ram console and persistent ram but last_kmsg still isnt showing up...though pstore still works I guess. Anyone able to enable ram_console and last kmsg? Ram_console is being a pain for me, not showing iomem.

As for current nexus issues, video, LED, sound etc I would be more than happy to contribute to solving these issues if anyone has a start already please post a dev related discussion for it, if not I will eventually start this.
