need some help please. just did something pretty dumb in a moment of not thinking. i went into rom manager and flashed cwm recovery (I'm using Hairy Bean 1.51 with TWRP) over the damn TWRP recovery, then did a system backup through rom manager. now I can boot into the rom, but no chance of recovery (as i'm guessing there is a twrp/cwm and possibly jb/ics conflict - if the rom manager flashed ics cwm recovery)
how do I get back my twrp recovery?
NB. Rom manager shows both TWRP recovery as well as CWM flashed and I can choose which i want to use... but when I pick TWRP, I still cannot access recovery. Is there an ADB command I can use to remove CWM and then reinstall TWRP? (I already tried installing the TWRP over it hoping to overwrite, but both recoveries still exist)
FIXED, NM.

So I just flashed CyanogenMod 11 on LG G2 and forgotbto flash GApps on my phone and when I try folowwing CyanogenMod steps to booting into recovery mode it won't and it just boots back into the operating system. I think Clockworkmod got deleted when I flashed the operating system. So I can't install it without gapps and I need my apps! Please help me. You contact me from my email [email protected] or message me on here.

Just because you can't get to recovery does not necessarily mean you lost root access. They are not one and the same. LGs are kind of finicky about recovery, If the built in reboot to recovery option from the Power menu is not working, you can try an app like QuickBoot or via adb commands from the computer, or via the hardware buttons like so: http://itechtriad.com/articles/2014/2/27/how-to-reboot-lg-g2-into-recovery-mode#.U14kH_ldWSo
If you actually have lost your recovery (which is unlikely because CM would not change that), and still have root access when booted up with CM - you should - then grab Flashify from the Play Store, put your favorite recovery img file on your storage of the phone, and use Flashify to install the recovery for you. Very easy.
Hi, I am trying to install cynogenmod or mokee rom and the device always gets stuck at cyno/mokee logo. it never goes beyond that. tried to wait for half an hour(waited for one hour twice).
Here is what I am doing:
I used TWRP but it wasnt working so i installed CWM, in both the recoveries I was wiping everything except sd card storage as my zip files were in the card. after that i flashed zip files(ROM & GAPPS). after that i rebooted to system. Am I doing it wrong? I am currently on 4.4.4 stock rom. Need help.
Thank you.
No one to help?
How can TWRP not work on your device? Install again TWRP via adb.

The problem wasn't with the recovery and I wasn't doing anything wrong. It was really too bad to know that the rom version I was installing had a bootloop bug in it. So I had tried two previous versions but they too had the same bug. And unfortunately I tried CONTINUOUSLY for two long days to install those same bugged ROMS as if God has put me in frustration mode. Tech fooled me right, lol.
Grab the November 8 version of Cyanogemod. There are issues with the newer updates.
Hey, I have that trouble. I was using CyanogenMod 14.1 and now I tried to update for LineageOS 7.1 and after boot the device it don't initialize. Stay on the loader screen and nothing happens. What could be the problem? One thing I've notice is that I can't click on Do Not Install when it says to me install the SuperSu. I use TeamWin . Sorry if I've make some mistake or make a question which was already done, I look for but don't found it.

Wipe system,data,cache, and flash the ROM again
DO NOT INSTALL THE SUPERSU OFFERED BY TWRP. WHEN TWTP ASKS CONFIRMATION TO INSTALL SUPERSU HOLD POWER BUTTON AND IT WILL RESTART

Thaks for the answer, I haven't tried it yet because when I tried I've got a error from the TWRP and now I'm trying to fix the recovery mode which gives me other error.
But thanks anyway, when I fix it and try what you told I make a post here.
You go Mount setting and unclick system mount after flash any rom

You may have to LG UP and start over, also you can try one of the stock based roms.

Or at least fastboot mode ?

that's the important part, I don't really know how much the t-mobile models differ from the H930 ones
but there should be fastboot ? download mode ? "factory reset" functionality (via button dance botting into TWRP) ?

You might have done what I did which is flash twrp.img in recovery.. it won't go back to initial password screen. I did that and had the same issues.. I recently did it.. now it only restores backups which is how I got lineage or other rooms back.. after wiping the system partition, it also only flashes stock debloated room, but anything else I flash crash system partition.. I'm going to start over but with treble recovery in root process and just avoid messing with it..

Did you restores the recovery as well? I did that which is suspect source of the problem number 2.. even flashing magisk crash my system partition.. but not the magisk in the stock room, probably cause it's built in.. or any restores.. either way I'm going to start over.. not touching recovery after root & not backing up recovery partition to confirm a few things.. can you flash debloated rom after formatting system partition? Aroma gapps don't work for me but other gapps does.. I found out the hard way cause I didn't see any information on it in the threads.. I read it's a common issue with TWRP recovery on multiple devices..

I had that once when i tried to flash the aroma gapps for pie ?
that kinda ****ed up TWRP, a force reset (vol- + power) did the job for me, as all the reboot/shutdown options in TWRP didnt wanna work.

Exactly what happens to me try the aroma installer from gapps project and everything went down hill now I flashed the stock one they have.
How can I delete Google apps installed by gapps without making other Google apps crash
Did you not have a backup of your rom using twrp before you made the change? Isn't that the whole point of having twrp and a phone with SD card? Always backup your whole phone before making a change. It has saved my phone many times.

Yes I had a back up but it was twrp acting up by not being able to boot.
My phone was just booting back to twrp even when pressing power off some how by finally powering off the device (letting it discharge all the way) that was the only thing that fix it me twrp started working fine after that
My twrp has been acting funny/unpredictable. Or I am not doing something right. Mostly has to do with the restore function. I generally have two separate roms backed up in restore. But, lately, I will see only one listed. When I get back to the phone and check in my root manager, I will see them both listed. And then later, it (Rom) "might or might not" return to the restore function area.
But, lately it seems that when I restore the system, I can not open it up in the lock screen (does not recognize the pin). I have to turn the phone off, then use the vol down and power button to get back into twrp. Luckily, I have a couple of roms downloaded in the install section which then does let me flash and reboot, but I have to start new/over.
I don't know if reflashing twrp in recovery will help or not (have never done it).
I'm afraid one of these times I will some how get locked out or not be able to flash a good rom.

when it doesnt recognize your pin, go (in twrp file manager) to /data/system/ and delete the locksettings.db(-sh/-wal) files...
I think that was the path, you can google that too ^^
Thx, SGCMarkus, I did delete just the one db only file. It did away with the pin unlock code on reboot (but I did not do a restore, just a reboot back into my system), so I assume it will work. I will try it when I have time. I think that deletion has to be done everytime in twrp, because the line does reappear the next time I booted back into twrp?
Thx.
