Is there a way to do a "factory reset" like on the X? Through button combo? If the phone wont fully boot up?

Why is your phone not booting up?

So, I flashed the newest update, and everything seemed to go fine. I reactivated it, used it a few times, had some issues with the radio. I updated the profile as was recommended, and things were good. I upgraded the radio again, and now all my phone does is loop at start. I am trying to reflash the update, will this work, or do I need to do something else?
*EDIT*
Update, the reflash failed, though I am not surprised. I received the error that the phone failed to re-enumerate, or something along those lines, anyone have any ideas? Should I take it to sprint and have them fix it?

You will need to go into recovery, power off phone, hold volume down button while pressing power, you should see fastboot, press volume down a few times until you see android recovery, press volume up button, will enter android recovery, will see the little android guy on your screen, now press both volume keys together, now volume up and down will scroll through the menu and power will select, select wipe data/factory reset, also wipe cache partition, then select reboot

You will not lose root or brick your phone, this will restore your phone to original settings, like the first time you switched it on.
The same can be achieved by going into settings > Privacy > Factory Data Reset
The other method was because he couldn't even get into his phone!

I'm trying to hard reset a GT-P7500 on Android 3.2 by turning it off and then pressing Volume Up + Power. But nothing happens... screen remains black.
What am I doing wrong?
Any alternative way to hard reset?
The tablet powers on normally when just pressing Power button.

I'm not sure if you mean to hard reset or if you're trying to go into recovery mode to access CWM?
Either way, a hard reset can be performed by holding the power key longer than the usual time to turn it on or off.
To access recovery mode, hold the power and volume down key if up didn't work. The android guy is downloading mode and the box icon is recovery. Let me know if this helps witha thanks:good:
Yes it did. Thanks so much.
I am using i777 with neatrom 8.0. no problem since last 1 year. But now SU asked for update and then told to press continue> the two option were Normal or TRPU/CMW. on pressing TRUP/CMw option phone rebooted and is just showing SAMSUNG logo and does not go further. please tell what i can do now.
Can you boot into recovery? If able to, perform a wipe data/factory reset.
Help

Recovery is power+BOTH volume buttons. For next time, always choose "Normal" when updating SuperSU binaries.
@rkgarg2000,
I'm not on here as often anymore. Sorry I missed your response and pm.
Did you get the issue resolved? As Steve says, hold down all three of vol up, vol down, and power buttons to enter recovery. Once in recovery, perform a wipe data/factory reset. Let us know if you have additional issues, or if that does not solve the problem.
Hi, I seen videos of people booting to custom recovery by powering up their phone, and then going to the reset data screen and pressing yes before going to the recovery. But for whatever reason this process doesn't work for me, and I never seen it done on a Verizon G3 model. I'm talking about booting to recovery by holding volume up and then letting go and pressing it once again.
When I try to boot to recovery by powering up my phone, I never get to the "reset data" screen, and instead I get to a LG themed recovery screen but it has no android recovery logo on it. The only way for me to get to TWRP recovery is by going to TiBu and from there choosing reboot to recovery, but that requires me to be able to boot onto Android.
Is there a way to boot to custom recovery on the LG G3 without doing it from Android?
The magic button combo is power + volume down.

Oops, I had that mixed up, it is indeed power+ volume down (I thought I knew what the method is so I didn't say power button earlier). However, I don't see the reset data screen, I go directly to a "system recovery" screen with the options to continue power up, safe mode, fectory reset, wipe cache, and power down. I'm not sure what to do to get to TWRP. Is this how all Verizon G3s work or is it just my phone?

You missed the part at the end of the op where he says he needs to do it at power up. My guess is he can't get into the os because of a bootloop.

I have a H900 and something weird happened. I've been rooted for a few months now with no real problems. Was listening to music the other day then my phone randomly restarted and got stuck in a bootloop. First thing I did was flash the root tot again but still stuck in a loop. Then I flashed the stock at&t tot and still the same problem. I'm not sure what to do.
Very strange
After flashing both .tot you have restored all partitions so should eliminate the issue
Try removing sdcard and sim, only things that stayed the same after flash
If this doesn't help (which is unlikely) then you may be toast... ?

Take out battery then put it in. Press POWER + VOL DOWN buttons. When you see LG logo release the POWER button (while still holding VOL DOWN) and press POWER button again.
You should see a screen which is asking you if you want to factory reset your phone.

Thought you were talking about something else. Already tried that and I'm still stuck.
