Hello, N33dhelp.
Have you tried using the phone's current factory reset (will destroy all data on the phone; Pictures, programs, files, etc)?
You can initiate it with the phone itself. Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN key and POWER key. When the boot-up logo appears: Temporarily release the POWER key and re-press and hold it (do not release VOLUME DOWN key).
The "FACTORY RESET" screen should appear shortly (the phone should NOT reboot; If it does: It did not work). You can release all keys.
The volume keys select menu items. The power button becomes an 'OK' or 'SELECT' button for what is highlighted (selected).
I just wrote this short guide on using LG UP to flash your phone to a factory reset state (using your PC).
If you're unable to factory-reset your device: You could consider flashing the phone: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k7/how-to/guide-factory-stock-flash-t3722424
I hope this helps!

Hey XDA! my friend is currently locked out of my LG MyTouch. The phone came out a little over a week ago so there's no forum dedicated to it yet, so I'm posting here.
She used a pattern lock and can't remember the Pattern nor her Gmail account or her password. With the past two Android phones I had, I would just Boot into recovery (Vol. Down & Power button), but this phone won't load into one. I also tried Vol. Up and Power. Nothing. I then tried both, but it went into the "S/W Upgrade" screen. Is there anyway to bypass this without having to send it back?
Thanks a lot for time guys! Hope you can help.
Hey daft
im locked out too, and cant find a way to do a factory reset :S did you solve your problem?if so..how!!
did a quick search for you. didnt render any answers. try existing methods for entering recovery mode.
1.volume down+power
2.volume up +power
volume up+down+power
the phone deff has to have a recovery system. once u get in there use the volume down button to highlight factory reset then push power
then highlight wipe data/cache and hit power. when finished reboot system now
hope this helps

also if you are familiar with adb you can navigate to adb then type adb reboot recovery
hello
Vabeach, thanks i've already tried all of those:S
volume up and power
volume down and power
both of them dont do a thing :S
and when i try the volume up + down + power....the phone goes into S/W upgrading... could it be that i need to do the upgrade and then itll let me do the factory reset? :s
Try this. Hold volume down and power. Keep holding until the lg logo comes up. Once that goes away release both buttons

finally the t-mobile page decided to tell us how....
i tried the link but it wont let me post..so ill paste it
A master reset (factory reset) restores the original factory settings and erases all user data (including settings and downloaded content) stored in the phone's internal memory. It does not erase data stored on the SIM card or memory card (if available).
Note: If the handset is locked, frozen, or unresponsive, you can perform a master reset using the hardware keys instead of the menu.
Note: Timing is critical in pressing/releasing keys.
To perform a master reset using hardware keys, follow these steps:
Back up all necessary data. See: Preparing for a master reset on Android.
Turn off the phone.
Press and hold the Volume Down and Power keys.
Wait 3 seconds and press the Back and Menu keys.
Note: If you see the LG logo before pressing the Back and Menu keys, the reset hasnt been completed and you will need to restart.
Release the Power/Lock key after you see the LG logo.
Release the remaining keys after the LG logo flashes (blinks once).
The Android Unpacking screen appears.
The phone will restart and complete the factory reset.
Note: If you unintentionally press the Volume Down, Volume Up and Power keys simultaneously, the phone will display a circle icon with two arrows and 'S/W Upgrade, Please wait while upgrading...' message. You will need to pull the battery and restart.
it worked on the first try!
happy holidays
Glad u found the answer

HELP! Blue Wave 8 33GT tablet stuck in recovery mode with "No command" message
I got my Blue Wave 8 33GT (not HD+) tablet completely bricked. First of all, I know this is not really a popular device and some of you might not have a single knowledge about this one, but I hope in any way you might help me get this device working again. Thank you in advance!
Some info about this device:
Bluewave's website: Wave 8
Android OS version: 4.4 KitKat
Device processor: Rockchip-based (RK31)
What just happened? It suddenly reboots while I'm playing and gone into recovery mode with an Android and a "No command." message. Now it won't boot the system anymore whenever I reboot, it always going into this recovery mode.
It has no volume buttons, just a reset, a hard back button and power button. Holding down the power and back button goes into the recovery mode directly. Through normal boot, it flashes the Bluewave logo twice then goes into the recovery. While the reset button immediately turn the device off. There's nothing else I can think of that I can do in this case.
My laptop can recognize it as an ADB Device in recovery mode and I think I may be able to flash it via Rockchip BatchTool, but the instructions I've read states that the device should be up and with a USB debugging enabled which I am not currently able to do in recovery mode. Device is rooted and working totally fine until this happened.
Anyone got into this kind of problem and able to go through it? Please, any help is greatly appreciated.
P.S
Just let me know if there are any additional info I could give you.

Hey! Thanks for your reply and time.
I tried every combination of either of the two keys but there is no such recovery menu showing up, and I am pretty sure that this device doesn't have a built-in recovery for factory reset.
If only I could go to its download mode stuff to be able to flash the firmware...

"Long press the power button to restart the device. If restarting fails, hard reset the tablet by poking the Reset hole using a pin. " it is from FAQ
maybe this could help.
1. Press the power button to get the option menu for
Power off
Reboot
Silence phone option.
2. on that menu you have to hold down that power off option on your touch screen while also holding down the home push button on the side of your tablet.
3. This brings up a screen to reboot into safe mode..(these are the 3 steps the company does not tell you that is why no one gets it to work.
4. HIt yes for safe mode and then hold down your power and home buttons on side of tablet till the dopo Logo appears.
5. Release both buttons and hit the power button one time and then hold only the home button down till a menu option appears.
6. Use the home button to move down to factory reset and press the power button to select. Once it says complete then use the power button to select reboot.
Problem solved. Hope this will help everyone out.
The only way is to remove the battery, attached again the battery then power it on their is no hard reset on blue wave the go to settings factory reset
Hello, Gents.
My fat fingers inadvertently ticked a package in BK package disabler which led to the device freezing instantaneously (yes, I know, I suck). it was a system package which I failed to write down. anyway, the volume down+ power button trick does not work for me since I can't turn the device off - I go through the screens where the V30+ model page shows up then the LG logo follows; releasing the power button and pressing it after 2 seconds just restarts the process.
can anyone help me with the adb command to entry the dialog screen for the data wipe?
adb reboot recovery just gives me the robot with a message "no command" at the bottom.
adb recovery --wipe_data does thing.
TIA.
Hold down power and vol down for 8 seconds, phone will shut down and then reboot
release both buttons as soon as the screen goes off
after half a second hold both again
as soon as the lg v30 logo appears, release the power button and then hold it again (while doing this continue to hold the vol down button)
you need to get the timing right, but that will boot the v30 (you can also check videos on youtube for the g6 for example) into the factory reset screen, which will boot recovery (if you select twice yes) and perform a factory reset
Old LG G5 I had previously installed Lineage on. Was in a drawer until I decided to charge it up and let one of my kids play games on it. When I input the correct screen lock pattern, it goes black, then comes back to lock screen.
I am able to hold power button to then select power off, restart, etc. From power off, I power on and get the orange triangle recommending to lock the bootloader. But no combination of power and vol-down or power and vol-up will get me to TWRP. It just rolls right back in to Lineage.
Also, from power off, if I plug in to my Linux laptop, it will power on and go to fastboot.
Feels like USB debug got turned off and/or trust somehow got revoked, but I never had this laptop connected to it so probably doesn't matter. But like I said, my unlock pattern is working. I get different response with correct pattern versus incorrect.
I'm also able to see the phone from my https://google.com/android/devicemanager page. I tried to send a secure and erase thinking it might let me start from scratch, but I only see a notification that "Device Located" and it never does anything.
And finally, lsusb -v does see the phone, but adb devices never does.
My question is any idea how to get back to TWRP to wipe and push an updated image or even put an updated TWRP?
Try this ...
It's like getting into Stock Recovery. To get into TWRP Recovery using button combination (hard reset) you'll need to hold volume down button and power button simultaneously, releasing power button (temporarily) once LG logo appears then quickly pressing and holding power button again, all the while maintaining hold on volume down button. The stock recovery message (white background) will appear requiring you to select volume up/down button to continue to reset software (see attached image). If you select yes it will appear to factory reset but will actually boot into TWRP.
Hope that helps!

Hi all,
Today while using my phone, it suddenly got hang, and so i tried to reboot it by firing power button, since then it's stuck on
boot screen.
It's not entering recovery mode.
USB debugging was not enabled.
Tried flashing, however hone is not detected by flashtool.
I have tried everything, Please help me!
Hi,
Tried hard reset ?
Mobile off, press simultaneously and for a long time on the on / off and volume + keys. The mobile vibrates then turns on (Mi screen).
Release the buttons and immediately (for several seconds) press the volume key -. A new screen (Main Menu Mi-Recovery 3.0) appears.
Using the volume key -, select Wipe data and confirm with the on / off key. The mobile displays a new screen.
Validate Wipe All Data. with the on / off button.
The mobile displays Confirm Wipe of All Data this cannot be undone
Using the volume key -, select Confirm and confirm with the on / off key.
The mobile proceeds to erase the data. At the end, a new screen appears (Data wiped Successfully). Press the on / off button.
The Mi-Recovery 3.0 Main Menu screen is displayed, with the on / off key validate Reboot. A new screen appears.
"Tried flashing, however hone is not detected by flashtool."
"I have tried everything, Please help me!"
1. For sure it will not be detected by flash tool, and for sure you didn't tried everything because in order to flash your device you need to put your device into EDL mode known as Emergency Download Mode.
Here is example which point you need to short with wire ot twizzers and plug usb in while you are holding those pins...
