I got all the way though the procedure and now I'm left with with a infinite boot loop when the LG logo just keeps appearing.

I got no errors and received exactly what was on the screenshots.

When I boot into recovery It first prompts me with the lg reset device screen. If I select Yes and confirm, it the boots into TWRP recovery. but the screen calibration is wrong. I cant click on anything and it presses in the totally wrong area.

Any ideas
[G2 Android Development (D802)] somboons:
Try enter to recovery again.if you use this tools then your g2 bootloop please make sure your g2 running 30a/30d offiial firmware.or can you capture screen when you use this tool to me I will investigate issue from screen.

Just did it on 30B it KDZ

So it WORKS

You have to

1. Install USB driver then reboot your PC

2. Enable USB debugging on Smartphone

3. Run the bat file

4. On smartphone authorize connection with the PC

5. Let it run

I have an issue on 30b.. When I wipe internal storage on TWRP, after reboot I got bootloop..

I've tried two times with a clean install kdz file but every time same result..

The only difference I've found using other methods, is the different TWRP settings file location... Until now I always had TWRP folder and setting file but now there is only an hidden file (even with RootExplorer, need to use stock G2 File manager to see it)..

Maybe force to delete it cause the problem or I'm totally wrong..

An advice?? I'm searching in various threads but no result..

EDIT: I've done some test, and Internal storage Wipe is the only "bug" I've found..

Everything else work perfectly.. even factory reset from LG settings (not recovery)..
[G2 Android Development (D802)] casca:
+1 to this... dont' get why but it's concerning a driver issue on device manager for sure...
[G2 Android Development (D802)] djoni_gitara:
yep, I have a hard time to root my device also but I finaly did it today. Nothing was working, three different pc's, different drivers, switching mtp ptp... I was lead by the fact that we have unbrickable device so I take a risk and did the following. It was strange, I do not reccomend it but It somehow worked for me :)

I assumed that the all necesary files are already in my phone in data/local/tmp and I skip that part, because pushing files with the script always worked.

What i did was: put the phone in download mode manualy, opened comand prompt typed

"Send_Command.exe \\.\COM4" because my phone was on that port.

Then I've got this:

SPECIAL COMMAND : ENTER, LEAVE

#

then I typed:

#*sh /data/local/tmp/lg_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox

and then... again nothing happened.... nothing on the pc, nothing on the phone In that moment, it was nothing new, just another failed attempt.

I madly unplug my device after maybe a minute, cause it looks like everything is stucked again.

Reboted the phone, and then guess what? I saw that one app is updating and that app was superSU.I didnt knew which recovery, bootloader, kernel... I have

I carefuly opened supersu :) - ok, downloaded root checker-rooted, downloaded quick reboot to reboot into the recovery (I didnt want to risk with button combination, in case that I have stock recovery then my device will be wiped). twrp 2.8.6.1 was there ,downloaded Boris's kernel flashed and started to enjoy LP more then before :)

Like I said I do not recommend this procedure, It was accidentaly worked for me but it could not work for you. I just share my experience, because it may be helpful.

btw I was on 30a cse flash then normal 30b flash then I managed to root

Hello,

I'm with D802 32GB, Kernel 3.4.0, Software ver. V30b-EUR-XX (build LRX22G) and I'm not being able to use this. I already hard bricked my device once so I'm a little afraid to enter in complicated methods... I've ran the OneClick_ROOT_RECOVERY.bat and the script ran until here: http://prntscr.com/733guw

Then as I've already watched the video and it was going exactly the same, I decided to wait some minutes for something indicating that the installation is going well, but after some time (maybe 10 mins or so) the cmd window still didn't display something new. I've searched for situations like mine in comments and found one solution to press CTRL+C and then answer N to reboot the device.

I've done it and the phone showed this: http://i.stack.imgur.com/4svyQ.png

I know this image is due to a recovery error so I've rebooted the phone and it boots okay but no root nor TWRP.

I fixed this like so:

When the device is being rebooted, be sure it is rebooted into download mode.

When the script reaches the "SPECIAL COMMAND", leave it sit for a few seconds and then hold down the power button and allow your device to restart.

I am on DB802 v30a Lollipop (v 5.0.2)

PHONE WAS FACTORY RESET

This is what happened to me:

1. I attempted to use the OneClickROOT_RECOVERY.bat however it get stuck like most people in the

2. I waited for 15 minutes (read somewhere that it may work)

3. Press Ctrl+C and press N. This allows the script to proceed further and attempted to reboot into recovery

4. Phone reboot and I have a brand new phone as factory reset was done

5. no root whatsoever

HOW DO I GET ROOT

I tried to use manual work, however I am never able to get into download mode when executing "adb reboot download". So this is what I did

1. Run the OneClickROOT_RECOVERY.bat until it reboot the phone to download mode (how does the script did it? I've no idea!!!. Sending "Send_command \\.\COM6" does not work for me

2. Press CTRL+C and say "Y". This stop the OneClickROOT_RECOVERY.bat from continuing further. At this moment, I only stop the script running from my pc, while my phone is still in Download mode

3. open command prompt and execute "Send_command \\.\COM6" while my phone is still in download mode

4. follow the manual step to execute the "sh .... " command

5. the script gets executed and phone reboot. Now I have root.

I'm not sure about recovery - so I simply run Autorec to install it. Then I use Quick reboot to reboot into recovery mode to test.

all is good!
