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

yes and every options of twrp asks me if i want to install twrp app which is weird
So connecting usb cable, force resetting it, press combo for download mode (volume up + usb cable ?)
doesn't work ?
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.

Hey guys,
Got a no name phone with mtk6580 and kernel 3.10.72 running custom Chinese android 5.1, and as you probably guessed I got problem flashing custom recovery on it, the device is not on the list for neither TWRP nor CWP.
What to do?
Thank you

A good place for no name phones is here:
https://forum.hovatek.com/forum-76.html
Either have a search or put a request for someone to make a TWRP for your phone, I put a request in and the next day someone made one for me.
I did try to make my own from a guide on here, its apparently really easy but I just couldnt get it to work, here is the one someone made for me which may work or at least gives you a good starting base to try: http://www.needrom.com/download/uhappy-up580-twrp-recovery/

Once again thanks a lot for reply!
I have successfully ported one of your builds, but with some mindless actions trying to flash recovery through fast boot got a boot loop of some sort, logo keeps appearing and phone doesn't boot.
What I did is in fastboot flashed recovery with help of 'fastboot oem unlock' and now I just stuck. I have stock recovery, tried to flash it back but unsuccessfuly. Any idea how can I fix it?
Sorry for being such a noob
recovery and/or firmware should be flashed with SPflash tool simply because I find its the easiest way,
Perfect way of doing things is:
SPflash tools=flash stock firmware til 'done' close SPflash
remove battery, put back in, boot, maybe stuck on boot image (happens to me 50% of the time)
remove battery, put back in, boot. Let it boot up and set up wifi/internet
turn off phone, battery out, back in DONT POWER ON
reopen SPflash, select correct scatter.txt file from stock firmware again
unselect all tick boxes, tick recovery box, click on 'address or location of recovery' and locate the TWRP image
click download, plug turned off phone in.
wait til done.
battery out, back in, boot to recovery with correct button presses (volume up+power?)
in recovery, set correct time
reboot recovery and allow install of superSU, reboot phone, select superSU from the notification and update.
Then put the new custom rom onto sdcard and reboot back to recovery, wipe system/data/cache/dalvik cache and install rom
install gapps
wipe caches
reboot
That is a perfect way of doing it, if the rom doesnt boot something is wrong with the rom/boot img/something
fix that, put back onto sdcard, just do the 4 wipes again and install rom again
and again
and again
until it is fixed and boots.

Im getting an error when try to flash it: ERROR: S_DL_GET_DRAM_SETTING_FAIL (5054)
trying to flash stock firmware?
I had numerous issues getting mine to flash the first time, I downloaded and tried different versions of SPflash tools, different USB leads/ports etc...
I have to use a USB lead from my moto x play as the stock lead wouldnt work, my galaxy tab lead wouldnt work either.
I have to use SPflash tool version SP_Flash_Tool_exe_Windows_v5.1552.00.000 as other versions kept bringing up that error and similar ones.
It really does seem to be trial and error unfortunately.
Hello,
I got a little problem with my lg g5.. I've unrooted my phone for a couple weeks ago to try and update to the latests version of android but I'm stuck at the part of updating.
Currently my phone is running android version 6.0.1 but I've seen that there is a newer version and I would love to install it on my phone but the notification that is popping up every day is nog working.
Hope somebody can help me.. Im really bad at this kinda things.
Do you have TWRP installed as a custom recovery? If so I understand your need to flash the default recovery img or updating from the phone will fail on reboot.
Check our autoprime's all in one guide that might help you troubleshoot and restore your phone to MM or N

Is there a way to check what custom recovery I've installed? It's been a while since I rooted my phone..
Turn off the phone or remove the battery. Then, hold down the volume down button and then the power button. Keep them both held till you see the LG logo, then release the power button and briefly press and hold the power button again. If successful you should see a white, factory restore menu. Use the volume keys to navigate and the power button to select yes on both the two screens. NB if you do not have a custom recovery this will factory restore your phone-so make a backup. If you do have a custom recovery, it should boot up e.g TWRP
From here you can flash the default boot loader img and then update ota

When I restart my phone and use those keys my phone is booting into the white screen where I can go into factory restore.. Do I need to install a custom recovery first?
Once in the white screen, to see if you do have a custom recovery installed, you need to select yes on both screens to enter the custom recovery. As I said before, if you do not have a custom recovery (such as TWRP) you will factory reset your phone and lose all settings so make backups first.
Before all that though, how did you root and into it your phone- that will give me an idea as to if you have a custom recovery installed

I've been using the bootloader unlock from this link
So you most likely flashed TWRP if you followed the instructions verbatim. How did in root?

Flashed the SuperSU with TWRP, it's down below at the tutorial page.
Now I only need to know what I need for the stock recovery and how I can update my phone
For the stock recovery, I have 6.01 10E stock recovery here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3j5Gs11w3EqVzNwa0h3b2tVWmc/view?usp=drivesdk
Hopefully that should work. If not, you can extract the recovery image from the full zips on autoprime's all in one LG g5 post.
Good luck
Hope I will get it working xD Thanks for your help!
Phone: LG Aristo MS210 (Metro PCS)
Bootloader: TWRP 3.0.3.0
So let me explain. I was just figuring out how to root the LG Aristo since I had never done it with a custom ROM. Yes, true story. Anyway, I was happy I got it working perfectly until I rebooted my phone. When I rebooted it, SuperSU was gone. I tried going to the play store and redownloading it, but I got an error code -504, and the thing is, I couldn't download any apps. ANY. I decided to look the error code up and I can't find anything on it. I tried multiple times doing multiple different things. From factory resetting, reflashing SuperSU, to factory resetting and then flashing SuperSU, wiping dalvik-cache along with everything except for system. It didn't work and I thought I could get it working.. Well... this next part I really messed up on. I decided to wipe everything. I selected all options and slid the cursor and it failed. The wipe failed. It said "E: /sdcard1 unable to partition" or something like that. I noticed that when I was wiping earlier the internal storage was also called that, and the funny thing is I have no microSD card in my phone. So. :/
Now when I boot I'm stuck on the LG splash screen and nothing else happens. I tried recovery mode (without ADB) with the power button + vol down key as I read here: (I'd post link but I'm a new member) that's how you get into recovery/factory reset. I'd use ADB to get into recovery, but since I just wiped the system, I don't have USB debugging enabled. I tried anyway and I gotta say this is my worst nightmare as I'm too young to get a job, (15 yrs. old) so I can't get a phone. :/ Oh, and if this can be useful: I know it connects to my PC over USB because I hear the sound it makes when a new device is connected. Is there any way I can use that to unbrick it?
EDIT 9/10/2017 9:31 PM (Eastern Time): I managed to get into twrp. I'm currently looking online for how to flash android 7.0 nougat (OS it originally had)

Hi,
Well the only way to fix this is that u need to be able to boot into recovery.
If u tried booting into recovery by holding the power and vol+/- and u end up booting to the boot logo, then recovery is also wiped.
In this case, u will need to check if u have access to fastboot. If so then obtain the twrp recovery for ur device and flash it then tried booting into recovery using the appropriate keys.
When I get time, I will research ur device for any recovery tool and stuff.

ok ok, man don't get scared, its ok. so first of all, make sure you have around 20 to 30 percent battery. If not then charge the device a bit. Next, thing is switch off your device. Now boot to fastboot and flash the normal twrp recovery, v3.2.1-0 (i just installed the official rr 6 with this recovery) . Now press and hold power and volume up. This should bring up twrp. Voila! Flash the rom you wanted, however the backup you made by redwolf is now of no use.
But tbh, i never heard about this error, related to pirated apps. Can you get a screenshot for me?

You can "do" that. Even if it says "no os installed" just switch off. Then press and hold power and volume down. Device WILL boot to fastboot. Now install twrp via pc. Now press and hold power and vol up. You should be seeing the twrp screen.
Use this build instead: https://github.com/FFY00/rw_manifest/releases
Yesterday I wanted to unroot my phone and I had the bright idea of putting it in Download Mode. I tried to reboot (volume down+power button) but it always go back to Download mode do not turn off target. So I tried to reboot it and as soon as the screen became black, I pressed volume up+power button+home, and I got into TWRP. Tried a factory reset from there (I don't care about the files inside of it) but still nothing changed.
So today I installed a stock firmware and I tried to flash it with Odin, but everytime it stopped and it never finished. Is it possible to flash the stock firmware with TWRP, since it's the only thing I can do with my phone right now? If so, how? If not, any method to flash a stock firmware?
I'm desperate, I'd like to just unroot my phone and do a factory reset on it... pls help.
P.s. My phone is a Samsung J5-2017, aka SM-J530F

Hi there
Answer some questions plz
Did you tried to flash custom ROM?
Does your internal storage shows at TWRP?
Did you tried to reboot to system from TWRP?
Did you tried to flash custom ROM? My phone was already rooted (even if one month ago it started having problems and it said "Not properly rooted" ergo I want to unroot it completely), but today I only tried to flash the stock firmware, not a custom one (sorry if that doesn't answer your question, i'm a total noob)
Does your internal storage shows at TWRP? Right now in my internal storage I only see TWRP and two empty folders (music and playlists)
Did you tried to reboot to system from TWRP? With reboot you mean restart my phone? If so, yes, I did. If with reboot you mean go on TWRP>Reboot>System/Power Off/Recovery/Download, also yes I tried all of them but still stuck.
